Chapter 14586 Reading

Jia Yu saw that Zuo Qiuzheng was still angry, but there were some things he had to say, so he immediately said, "Your Highness, if we kill Tang Yifei directly, then the Seventh Prince will know immediately, and he will also know that the matter has been exposed, which will cause problems. It is better to keep him and find a way to let him spread some false information to the outside world. What do you think?"

Zuo Qiuzheng couldn't help but snorted when he heard what Jia Yu said, "Forget it, just kill him. What can Old Seven do if he knows? I just want him to know that I already know about this matter. I want to see if he dares to mess around in the future. Forget it, let's not talk about him. This matter is now over, but whether there are problems with other people in the mansion is really hard to say. However, this Zhao Hai is really a talent. He just entered the mansion today and saw the problem with the magic array at a glance. It can be seen that this important person's attainments in the magic array are still very deep. I plan to use him. Of course, now I only give them the identity of a guard. I plan to let him re-sort out all the magic arrays in the mansion tomorrow. How about it?"

When Jia Yu heard Zuo Qiuzheng say this, he was stunned, then he nodded and said, "Okay, this man's magic array technique is indeed powerful. If his identity is not a problem, then it is reasonable to use him. However, if Your Highness really uses him, others will definitely know about it. Then he will be in danger. Your Highness must protect him well."

Zuo Qiuzheng nodded, then said: "In the past few days, other people have also sent some people from the other six realms. Although these people have their own abilities, there is really no one like Zhao Hai. However, those people are also very useful. I will let them all be guards first. But letting them live in the mansion all the time, this doesn't seem to be a good idea. Does anyone have any ideas about this matter? Is there any place for these people to live? Houses are not cheap here in the capital star. It is not easy to find a place to arrange them."

Zhang Dai said, "Your Highness, if they want to live, they can't live too far from the East Palace. If so, if there is something wrong here, they can't rush here in the first time. And the safety of the East Palace can't be left to them. It's better to use our own people to be more assured. It's better to monitor these people. I think those people who are sent out are completely loyal to Your Highness. We still have to see. As for Zhao Hai, you can let him set up the magic circle, but after he sets up the magic circle, it's better to ask the palace priests to come and take a look. What do you think?"

Zuo Qiuzheng listened to Zhang Dai's words, thought about it, then nodded and said: "This is an experienced method. How about this, there are still some empty positions in the military camp of the prince's six commanders? Arrange them all in, let them live there and observe for a while, Zhao Hai will stay in the mansion, and then let him rebuild the magic array in the mansion, and I will ask the worshiper to come and take a look at it when the time comes."

Everyone responded, and Zuoqiu Zheng continued, "As for the matter of Tang Yifei, it will definitely attract the attention of the Seventh Prince. However, we have to pretend that we don't know about this matter. If someone really asks about it, just say that Tang Yifei died of poisoning. But we are still investigating who poisoned him. Fusheng, you go and make arrangements. Just say that Tang Yifei was poisoned, and we are investigating who poisoned him. The East Palace will be under martial law first." Fusheng responded and went to make arrangements immediately. Zuoqiu Zheng had calmed down now, and regained some composure, so he was thinking about how to calm the matter down so that the Seventh Prince would not be too suspicious.

If they said this to the outside world, even if the Seventh Prince had doubts, he probably wouldn't be 100% sure. After all, the ones who arrested and interrogated Tang Yifei were all his most loyal subordinates, the eunuchs under his command, plus the people in the room. Apart from these people, very few people knew about this matter, and these people would never betray Zuo Qiu Zheng.

Zuoqiu Zheng looked at everyone again and said, "You will have to work hard these few days and live in my house. When you go back in a few days, you can say that Tang Yifei died of poisoning. In the end, we couldn't find out who poisoned him." Everyone responded, and the prince waved his hand. Everyone stood up, saluted the prince, and then left the room.

After they left, the prince snorted coldly. Although he was not as angry as before, he still felt a little uneasy. Tang Yifei's actions also puzzled the prince. With his identity, even if the other party destroyed the magic circle, it would not pose any threat to him. Could they dare to assassinate him? If someone really did this, the entire Star Empire would be turned over by the emperor, and things would definitely get out of hand. He really didn't understand what the other party was doing, but thinking carefully, it seemed that doing so was indeed useful. Now I can't see anything. If one day, everyone really reached a situation of no return, then these magic circles in his mansion would be very useful. But unfortunately, their plan has failed now, and there will be no chance in the future. Thinking of this, the prince couldn't help but snorted coldly again. This time, it was really dangerous. If it weren't for Zhao Hai, he really didn't expect such a thing to happen.

The next morning, Zhao Hai had just gotten up and had his meal. The food he ate was brought to him by servants from the Prince's Mansion. As soon as he finished eating, Fu Sheng came to Zhao Hai and said that Zuo Qiuzheng wanted to see him. Zhao Hai immediately followed Fu Sheng to Zuo Qiuzheng's study.

After entering the study and paying respect to Zuo Qiuzheng, Zuo Qiuzheng said to Zhao Hai: "Zhao Hai, I have a task for you. If you do it well, I will directly promote you to the palace as a tutor. How about it?" After saying that, Zuo Qiuzheng looked at Zhao Hai, waiting for his answer. Although this tutor seems inconspicuous and has no rank, everyone knows that this tutor is the prince's confidant. If Zhao Hai really becomes a tutor, his status in the prince's palace will definitely be extraordinary. Even his status can be compared with Du Wei and others. This is also an opportunity given by Zuo Qiuzheng to Zhao Hai. It depends on whether Zhao Hai can do it.

Zhao Hai quickly saluted towards Zuo Qiu Zheng and said, "Thank you, Your Highness. May I know what the mission is?" Zhao Hai had almost guessed it, but he still asked. Sometimes, people cannot appear too smart, otherwise, your boss will not have any sense of accomplishment. Moreover, if your boss finds out that you are too smart and you can think of everything he says, he will be wary of you. So when necessary, you have to pretend to be stupid. That's why Zhao Hai said this. He was just waiting for Zuo Qiu Zheng to say it himself.

Zuo Qiuzheng looked at him and smiled, "There are many magic arrays in my mansion, but some of them have been destroyed. You have a deep understanding of magic arrays, so I will let you check carefully to see which magic arrays in the mansion have been destroyed and how to repair them. As long as you do this well, I will give you a position as a tutor."

It is impossible that there is only one person who can hold the position of the Crown Prince's tutor. In fact, sometimes, the Crown Prince's tutor is just a position. Some people may just hold the position as a title, or even use it as a bargaining chip to exchange for someone's loyalty.

Zhao Hai hurriedly said: "Yes, I will live up to your trust." Zhao Hai had guessed this matter a long time ago, so he agreed immediately.

Zuoqiu Zheng nodded, then turned to Fu Sheng and said, "Fu Sheng, arrange someone to follow Zhao Hai. He can go to other places in the mansion except the forbidden area. But if he wants to go to the backyard, he needs to prepare in advance." Fu Sheng responded, then he led Zhao Hai out. Zhao Hai saluted to the prince and left with Fu Sheng.

When they got outside, Fu Sheng immediately called over a eunuch and asked the eunuch to follow Zhao Hai and listen to Zhao Hai's orders. Zhao Hai certainly did not object. He immediately asked the eunuch to prepare some pens and paper. After everything he wanted was ready, he followed the eunuch around the mansion. The first place he looked at was, of course, the front yard of the mansion. There were many small courtyards in the front yard, and these places needed to be carefully examined. Zhao Hai looked and drew at the same time, and he would also make written records at the side.

In this way he wandered around the front yard for three days, and then wandered around the prince's office for another three days. Finally, he reported to Zuo Qiuzheng that he wanted to go to the backyard to take a look. Zuo Qiuzheng agreed to his request, but he had to wait for a day. A day later, the backyard of the prince's mansion was also empty. Zhao Hai's wandering time was not long this time, only one day, and then he returned to his yard, and began to write and draw there. Finally, he specially asked the eunuch to prepare a large piece of paper for him, which was the kind of large paper specially used for drawing large paintings. Such large paper is not something that ordinary people can get, because there are few places that use paper now, and even fewer places that use this kind of large paper. Therefore, it is very troublesome to prepare this kind of large paper, and it must be customized. Fortunately, the prince's mansion has stock, so the large paper was really found by the eunuch. After the eunuch found the large paper, Zhao Hai locked himself in the room for three more days. During these three days, he did not leave the yard at all, and the eunuch who followed Zhao Hai would tell Zuo Qiuzheng about Zhao Hai's itinerary every day.

After hearing that Zhao Hai was wandering around and could draw, Zuo Qiuzheng didn't say anything. He just wanted to see what Zhao Hai would achieve in the end. If he did well, that would be the best of course. If he didn't do well, he would not be soft-hearted when it came to dealing with Zhao Hai. People like Zuo Qiuzheng who are in a high position want people who are useful to him. If a person is completely useless to him, he will not keep such a person around him. Even if this person can only flatter and coax his masters, he is still a useful person. At least he can provide emotional value. If a person can't do anything well and speaks unpleasantly, such a person is a useless person. They will not keep such people around them. Zuo Qiuzheng admired Zhao Hai's understanding of the magic circle that he showed last time very much, but if Zhao Hai can't fix the magic circle of the Prince's Mansion, then his status in Zuo Qiuzheng's heart will be lowered.
