Chapter Eighty-Nine: Infighting
When he came to the prince's mansion, Mo Zihan came directly to the study under the leadership of his subordinates.
Before I could enter the door, I heard the sound of squirming and talking.
Mo Zihan's eyes shone slightly, could it be that the prince also made an appointment with someone else.
Gently slamming the door, Mo Zihan entered the study and saw the two people in the room at a glance.
"Your Highness."
Mo Zihan said, looking at the figure of the other person with curious eyes.
As soon as this person turned around, his eyes widened.
"Why are you here?"
Mo Zihan was quite surprised in his heart, Zhou Chaosheng would be by the prince's side, when did he cling to him.
"Young Master Mo, long time no see."
Zhou Chaosheng greeted him with a smile on his face, and took the initiative to reach out to shake hands with Mo Zihan.
"It's been a long time."
Mo Zihan didn't smile at his skin, and there was a bit of mockery in his eyes.
The prince's gaze wandered over the two of them, and he said slowly.
"It seems that you are also old acquaintances, Zhou Chaosheng has just been released from prison, and he is also a newly tapped talent I have dug up, and the two of you will have to get along well the day after tomorrow."
The prince's eyes were full of admiration for Zhou Chaosheng, and he did not hide his importance.
Looking at the prince's burning eyes, Mo Zihan's fists clenched tightly.
However, in just a few days, Zhou Chaosheng was able to climb the line of the crown prince, and he was so respected by him that it was extremely shameless.
Looking at the prince's expression now, I am afraid that Zhou Chaosheng will be a little more than himself.
Mo Zihan's heart was quite unwilling, and a little hostility was added to his eyes.
"I didn't expect you to have such a good method, just a few days after you were released from prison, you have already found a way out, it seems that I really underestimate you." Mo Zihan said in a deep voice.
Zhou Chaosheng naturally heard the hostility in his words, but his expression did not change at all.
"The words of the second prince really make me dare not take it, but it was a coincidence that I was fortunate to get to know His Highness."
"Really? But how could such a smart person as you end up in a situation where you are imprisoned, and you are still burdened with a guilty body, it's really pitiful. ”
A sneer flashed in Mo Zihan's eyes, and he looked at him with a playful expression.
Zhou Chaosheng's heart tightened, and anger suddenly burned in the bottom of his heart.
Immediately afterwards, he suppressed his emotions, and now he should not act recklessly, but will ruin his good future.
"If someone with a heart is deliberately framed, it must be difficult to escape, as the so-called eating a trench grows wise, Zhou doesn't think this is a bad thing, from the other side, I can also grow from it, so as to better serve His Highness."
After listening to his words, Mo Zihan's face suddenly became gloomy. This person is so clever that it is really difficult to deal with.
With him around the crown prince, where does he still have his own status.
"It's a good thing to say, but I don't know how much real skill you can have to do it, if you are still as dull as before, there is no need for the prince to keep you by your side."
Mo Zihan was dissatisfied in his heart, and the more he spoke, the more unpleasant he became, and he didn't leave anyone with any affection at all.
Despite this, Zhou Chaosheng's expression was not half dissatisfied. He knew very well in his heart that if the prince didn't say anything to stop him at this time, he was testing himself, and he definitely couldn't drop the chain at this time, otherwise his future would really be ruined in his own hands.
Thinking of this, Zhou Chaosheng stubbornly suppressed the anger in his heart, and looked light.
"I will definitely prove it to the prince in the future."
Mo Zihan wanted to continue to fight back, but was interrupted by the prince.
"It's worthy of being the person I fancie, and he really has a strong belief and endurance, which is good."
The prince's eyes were full of appreciation, and he looked at Zhou Chaosheng without hesitation.
He had been observing this person just now, and Zhou Chaosheng was able to completely control his emotions and not be seen by outsiders, and he was really a malleable talent.
"Thank you for the compliment."
Seeing that the prince admired him so much, Mo Zihan's eyes were full of jealousy.
What kind of thing is he Zhou Chaosheng, a poor scholar, and he has been in prison, I really don't know what the prince likes about him, and he even has to rank behind him.
The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, and the anger in my heart went straight to my brain.
"I can bear it, how can I look at you as a wreck? A dignified manly man, he doesn't even dare to say a word of rebuttal, which is really unambitious and shameful. ”
As soon as the words fell, there was only a slight sliding sound in Mo Zihan's ears, and then, the fist smashed straight into his face.
Zhou Chaosheng's punch speed was extremely fast, he didn't use all his strength, but he also deliberately used a little more strength.
The fist fell, and Mo Zihan's face suddenly turned red.
Suddenly received a punch, Mo Zihan's brain went blank, and he was stunned for a long time before he realized what was going on.
He was actually beaten, and the second son of his dignified Hou Mansion was slapped in the face. What's more, this person is a white-faced scholar, which is a great insult to him.
"How dare you hit me! Look at me if I don't teach you a good lesson! ”
As he spoke, Mo Zihan grabbed him by the collar and wanted to hit someone.
"Stop!"
Before the fist was raised, it was stopped by the prince's deep voice.
The prince looked at Mo Zihan with an unkind face, and was quite dissatisfied in his heart.
If it weren't for the fact that he had the support of the Hou Mansion, a brainless person like this, he would definitely not have taken this person under his command.
"Your Highness, you have seen it with your own eyes, he dares to beat me!"
There was a chill in the prince's eyes, and he looked at Mo Zihan with an unkind face.
"I've seen it all, including how you bullied Chaosheng just now, I also see it all in my eyes, do you still need me to help you remember it again?"
"But...... I didn't do it, it was he who hurt people first, and it was just lawless. Mo Zihan said unconvinced.
"If it weren't for you speaking so badly, how could he hurt you, okay, don't mention this matter again!"
Although Mo Zihan was no longer convinced in his heart, he didn't dare to say a word again when the prince spoke.
Looking at the situation that gradually subsided, the prince's gaze slowly fell on Zhou Chaosheng's body.
Just now, his performance won his own satisfaction, Zhou Chaosheng can bend and stretch, know how to see the situation clearly, when to make a move, he knows quite well in his heart. Such a brave and resourceful person, fortunately, he did not miss it.
Although he didn't see the prince's expression, Zhou Chaosheng knew in his heart that his current position could be temporarily stabilized.
He didn't dare to relax in his heart, and he was determined to let the prince see his value clearly.
"Your Highness, I have an idea. Now there is a scientific expedition soon, and Mo Zixuan is also going to participate. We can do something on his way to the test to prevent him from taking it, or to make him late. ”
"That's a good suggestion, although I don't think Mo Zixuan can pass the exam, but it's also a good case in case, what do you have any good ideas?"
