Chapter 1599: Rumors
"The prince said this, and the ministers didn't dare to do it!" Xiao Chen had to swallow it in one bite and make a sweet look.
"If you don't dare to be, who will dare to be?" Li Shidao, "Actually, if I just make you a king with a different surname according to my wishes, it will be nothing." ”
"Lord Wang!" Xiao Chen was startled and hurriedly stood up.
"You're right, how bad is our Great Zhou National Fortune?" Li Shi waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down, "In times of crisis, there must be a courtier like you who can stand up to share the king's worries. ”
Gradually got to the point......
The two talked secretly for two whole hours, during which the wine and food were sent in, as for what they talked about? That's only the two of them know.
By the time Xiao Chen said goodbye, it was already dusk.
"Boss, who are we going to worship?" Xiao Yu led the horse and asked.
"Are you just waiting outside, have you eaten?" Xiao Chen said.
"I've eaten it, the first-class banquet given by the prince." Xiao Yu said with a smile, "Each person was rewarded with a hundred taels of silver." ”
"Well, let's go to Ningyuan Street and take a look at Lin Dongyang's family." Xiao Chen nodded.
"Boss, are we officially on the side?" Xiao Yu rode side by side with him and asked in a low voice.
"Pulling out the big man in the, isn't this an option? You can't choose Li Feng's second goods, right? Xiao Chen smiled, "But I can't look at this product, I don't have a heart." ”
"Or could that be so difficult?" Xiao Yu smiled, "If they are all my sons, I don't know who to choose?" ”
"What a big rebellious thing you kid said!" Xiao Chen smiled, "Why do you want to die?" ”
"It's not rough." Xiao Yu said, "I chatted with the brothers in Fengyang City yesterday, and the big guys all said the same, the two princes' reviews are actually not good, Li Feng is too fierce, Li Shi is too yin, one is not easy to serve, and the other is not elusive...... There are even people who miss the dead ghost prince, saying that he may be stronger. ”
"That's, no matter how bad these two are, they're better than that." Xiao Chen said.
"Yes, I heard that the prince is not a thing." Xiao Yu said, "So, there are rumors in the market that it would be nice if the emperor had a son......
"Huh? Where did you hear about this? Xiao Chen's heart moved when he heard this.
"It's all hearsay, and there is no exact source...... Isn't this just what the big guy is talking about? Xiao Yu said.
"Hehe, that's not necessarily, can this kind of nonsense come out?" Xiao Chen didn't think so.
"Boss, are you saying that someone deliberately spread the news?" Xiao Yu said.
"Hmm...... This possibility cannot be ruled out. Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed, and his mind was racing.
Li Wanjiang seems to be impartial to his two sons, but he doesn't know that he has any other deep meaning?
Lin Dongyang and Wang Ruhai, the two governors, were Li Shi and Li Feng's right-hand men, and Li Wanjiang took them all down and punished them, which was equivalent to cutting off their wings.
If it was just to warn the two sons, or to warn the ministers, it would be enough to give them a reprimand, or demote them or remove them at most, and there is really no need to do things so desperately!
Could it be that Li Wanjiang really plans to make his 'wild seed' the crown prince?
But the question arises, who is the wild seed that the Queen Mother said in her mouth?
Is it Ren Bijiang, or Mu Ziqiu?
First of all, Ren Bijiang should be excluded, because although Ren Bijiang is in Fengyang City now, he has no connection with him Li Wanjiang.
Could it be Mu Ziqiu?
Because the Queen Mother said that the wild woman's name was Lu Yanqiu, so the wild seed seemed to be one of the two......
A young island master of heaven, a young general of the Dongying shogunate, and a young master of the Demon Sect, they are all quite 'excellent'.
If he chooses one of the two of them, Xiao Chen doesn't have to choose, but if it is Mu Ziqiu and Li Shi Li Feng, Xiao Chen would rather choose Mu Ziqiu, the little devil of the Demon Sect......
"Boss, it's here." Xiao Yu raised his whip and pointed to a small dilapidated courtyard on Ningyuan Street.
It looks about the same size as Granny Yan's small yard......
"Oh, why are you here?" There were a few men sitting at the door, and when they saw Xiao Chen, they immediately got up and greeted them, but the leader was the old acquaintance Scar.
As soon as he trotted over, he made a gesture first, then grabbed the reins and waited for Xiao Chen to dismount.
The others stood aside, looking at Xiao Chen and smirking.
"What are you guys doing sitting in front of someone's house?" Xiao Chen jumped down and asked casually.
"Isn't this what Master Xiao ordered me to look at Lord Lin's family?" Scar Ye hurriedly explained, "A few Hanako came to make trouble before, and I beat them away with punches and kicks, and I was afraid that they would come back again, so I sat here and guarded." ”
"Why don't you go inside on this cold day?" Xiao Yu asked.
"It's inconvenient." Master Scar said, "There are more than a dozen people in Lord Lin's family, as well as female dependents, it's not good for a few rough men to go in and disturb us, but Master Lin invited us in...... I said it was better to sit outside and eat and drink to cool off. ”
"But I'm sorry for you." Xiao Chenxin said that this guy is really entrusted by others, and he is loyal to people, and he can be regarded as a good rascal.
No wonder Xiao Yu would let him do this.
"Oh, what you said, sir, it's just a gesture, it's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning!" Scar Ye was happy and grinned a few big gold teeth.
This was given to him by Xiao Chen himself.
"Lord Xiao!" A young man suddenly flew out of it and knelt down directly at Xiao Chen.
"This is ......" Xiao Chen didn't recognize it.
"Master, you don't recognize him emotionally?" Scar Ye hurriedly said, "This is Lin Qi, the son of Lord Lin Dongyang." ”
"Oh, it turned out to be Lin Gongzi, hurry up, what is this for?" Xiao Chen stretched out his hand to help him up, "I remember that I haven't seen Childe, why does Childe recognize me?" ”
"Before my father was imprisoned, he told his little nephew that if anyone came to visit, it must be you, Lord Xiao!" Lin Qi said.
"Alas...... Lord Dongyang encountered this difficulty, which is really unexpected. Xiao Chen sighed.
"Your Excellency, please!" Lin Qi said, "It's just that the residence is ugly, it's really ......."
It's really too cramped, there are only three crooked and broken houses in the narrow yard, but Lin Dongyang's family is close to each other, even big and small, even men and women, there are seventeen or eighteen people, and I don't know how they live in it?
"Qi'er, who's coming?" But I saw an old lady with white hair and crutches coming out of the middle room, followed by seven or eight female dependents, and when they saw Xiao Chen, they all lowered their heads and looked frightened.
"Grandmother, it's Lord Xiao Chenxiao!" Lin Qi hurriedly ran over to help.
"Xiao Chen? This is our benefactor! Although the old lady was very old, she spoke clearly and her eyes were clear, but she was not confused at all, she pushed Lin Qi away, dropped her crutches, and knelt down at Xiao Chen two steps forward.
