"It's him......"
Xia Jiang nodded, but did not care. Anyway, he was as still as a mountain and only obeyed the orders of Emperor Liang.
He doesn't even care about the current crown prince, let alone Prince Yu, a prince of the seventh pearl.
With Xia Jiang's entry into the city, the situation in Jinling will soon become chaotic again.
The prince has completely lost his power and has no capable people under his command. The Minister of War is very old. Although the position sounds very high, the royal power is in the hands of the emperor, and the minister has no power at all.
Although Mei Changsu was helping, he was not the same kind of person as the prince.
The Minister of Personnel resigned because of his son's affairs, and Prince Yu was replaced by his own man, of course with the consent of Emperor Liang.
Of course, this so-called insider was recommended by Chen Fang. In other words, he is Chen Fang’s man. He is an important personnel director.
Chapter 553: Emperor Liang is a scumbag?
It can be said that the power in the court is in chaos now, but Prince Yu definitely has the upper hand, not only does he have three chancellors.
And there is also the support of Tianquan Villa, a powerful underworld force.
Xia Jiang first went to complete his mission, and then Emperor Liang sent everyone away, leaving only Xia Jiang alone.
Xia Jiang was not a fool. He knew that the emperor had asked him to do something alone, and it was a big deal.
Emperor Liang said coldly: "Go and find out Chen Fang's background for me. He is Prince Yu's adviser!"
"The minister obeys the order."
Xia Jiang immediately accepted the order, but he was extremely surprised. Does the emperor value Chen Fang so much?
Doesn't that mean I missed a big event by being outside the city gate?
Afterwards, Emperor Liang gave instructions on some matters, and Xia Jiang naturally followed his orders.
After returning to Xuan Jing Division, Xia Jiang asked Xia Chun and Xia Dong to come over and ask about the previous case.
"Master, I suspect that it was Chen Fang who did this, and I think so too!"
Xia Chun bowed and said this. Xia Dong regretted deeply in her heart, but nodded on the surface. After all, she was the one who said this.
Xia Jiang thought for a moment and said, "Don't investigate these matters."
When Xia Chun heard that he didn't want to investigate anymore, he said hurriedly, "Master, this is His Majesty's decree!"
"I just came back from the palace......."
Xia Jiang said lightly, in other words, this is what His Majesty instructed, so Xia Chun didn't say anything else.
"Yes, Master!" x2
"You have something to do now, do it according to this."
Xia Jiang pointed to the booklet beside him and said that this was the task he assigned to his two apprentices, but now they didn't know that Xia Dong had already betrayed them.
Chen Fang was invited to Prince Yu’s Palace today.
"Sir, do you know that Xia Jiang from Xuan Jing Division has returned?"
"Well, this Xia Jiang is not the prince's man, right?"
"Of course not. How could the prince accept him? I got a piece of news today that my father seemed to have asked Xia Jiang to investigate something. It seemed to have something to do with you, sir."
Chen Fang said with a look of annoyance: "That must be Xie Yu's business. I was a little impulsive when I said that."
"Sir, don't worry. Xie Yu has sent people to assassinate us time and again. I think your actions are not wrong..."
When Prince Yu brought up this matter, he naturally wanted to warn Chen Fang. He first said that the emperor sent people to investigate him, and then said that he would protect him.
Isn't this a typical case of giving a slap in the face and then giving a sweet date?
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Chen Fang stood up and said with gratitude, "Since Prince Yu said so, I should give you some face. Anyway, you are still useful now."
"Hey, sir, there's no need to be so polite. This is what I should do......"
Prince Yu was still very satisfied and gave another speech to consolidate his leadership position.
"Your Highness, His Majesty's birthday is coming soon, right?"
The meaning of Chen Fang's question was to remind the prince that it was time to step down.
"Yes, it will happen in a few days. Sir, come with me to see this birthday gift......"
Prince Yu began to show off. This was a piece of stone that he had spent a lot of effort to get, and from a distance it looked like a capital letter "Shou".
Chen Fang knew what Prince Yu’s birthday gift was, so he smiled and went over to take a look.
"Sir, what do you think of this birthday gift.............."
Prince Yu introduced himself with a smile. If it weren’t for Chen Fang, Prince Yu would not have bothered to say so much.
"It is indeed good, but Your Highness, I have another gift here that may be more suitable..."
Chen Fang smiled and then winked at Ada.
"Oh, what's the gift?"
Prince Yu was very surprised. He knew that Chen Fang's gifts were usually very novel, and maybe they were actually better than this stone.
Ah Da walked forward, bowed and said, "Your Highness, Boss, the stuff has been delivered."
"Well, open it quickly and show it to His Highness."
"Yes."
After Ah Da opened the box in front of him, there was a crystal ball inside with a yellow golden dragon inside. Anyway, this thing is very common in later generations.
But here, it was simply a dimensionality reduction attack, especially the golden dragon in the crystal ball was so lifelike that even Prince Yu was stunned.
"Sir, this is a priceless treasure."
Prince Yu couldn't help but sigh, and so did the people around him. Master Ji was even more ashamed, as the stone he found was truly embarrassing.
"Your Highness, how about such a treasure as a birthday gift? Isn't the golden dragon inside just right for Your Majesty..."
"Such a treasure, sir, are you willing to give it up?"
Prince Yu was very surprised. He finally understood that Chen Fang wanted him to take it and present it to his father. This was too generous.
"This is also something that Chen accidentally obtained, and I should present it to Your Highness."
Chen Fang smiled on the surface, but he didn't agree in his heart. This thing would take up too much space at home. Wouldn't it be better to have a few beautiful maids?
Prince Yu symbolically refused twice and then accepted it. This crystal ball was naturally much better than that broken stone.
I thought that this one would definitely be better than the one in the Eastern Palace, and my father would definitely like it even more.
Emperor Liang wanted to play the game of checks and balances, and he kept supporting Prince Yu, making him confront the Crown Prince, in order to consolidate his own power.
Chen Fangxin thought, let’s just wait and see, when Prince Yu beats the Crown Prince again and again, how will this arrogant and foolish monarch react?
After staying in Prince Yu's mansion for a while, Chen Fang took the gold, silver and five beauties that Prince Yu had given him last time. He did not refuse and accepted them directly.
Not to mention anything else, Chen Fang just likes these tacky things. He really can't handle elegant things. Beautiful women and gold and silver are the best things.
Soon it was time for Emperor Liang's birthday banquet. Naturally, the emperor, several princes and Prince Ji attended the banquet. It was time for the princes to present their gifts.
When Prince Yu took out the crystal ball, everyone present was shocked. The prince only took one look at it and knew that he had lost again.
Emperor Liang was also fascinated by it, because this thing was too rare for the ancients.
In their eyes, these things are all handmade, so the craftsmanship of the craftsmen must be beyond compare, right?
They don't know what mass production or industrialization means.
"Jing Huan, how did you get this?"
"Father, this is what I sent people to search for several times before I found it in the depths of the East China Sea... The golden dragon inside just proves that you are the true emperor!"
Prince Yu just followed Chen Fang's words. Emperor Liang couldn't verify his lies anyway, so he could just say whatever he wanted.
"Good, good! It is indeed a treasure... Jing Huan did a great job."
Emperor Liang couldn't let it go and asked Gao Zhan to keep it safe, saying that it was much better than the night pearl.
Emperor Liang just glanced at the gifts from the princes behind him. He was not interested even in the strong bow given by Prince Jing. His mind was now full of his destined prince.
This thing is more of a symbolic meaning. Prince Yu was praised a lot, which made the other princes jealous.
The Crown Prince was particularly unhappy. It felt like he had no leadership and would be deposed tomorrow. And Mei Changsu was also a waste.
It has been so long, and I have suffered repeated defeats, while Prince Yu has been making progress and his power has become stronger and stronger.
Because it was the mourning period, Emperor Liang didn't drink much wine and told everyone to leave. After returning to the harem, he felt all alone.
Usually there is someone to accompany me at this time, and then I thought of Concubine Yue.
"Gao Zhan!"
"The slave is here."
Emperor Liang whispered something in his ear for a while, and then Gao Zhan went downstairs to ask for someone. Naturally, he went to find Concubine Yue... No, it was the former Concubine Yue.
At this moment she was still in the cold palace. When she heard that Emperor Liang had summoned her, Yue immediately dressed up and followed the eunuch over.
Yue had been in favor for so many years, so naturally she had many tricks up her sleeve, and it didn’t take long for her to completely control Emperor Liang.
The queen frowned when she heard the news and decided to wait until the banquet in the evening to talk about it.
She would entertain her son for lunch at noon, and at night she would naturally meet the concubines in the harem. The Queen was the head of the harem, so she would naturally be among them.
.........
Chen Fang knew exactly how the current emperor came to power.
For Emperor Liang, allowing Prince Yu's family to be the only powerful family would mean handing his life over to his son. How could that be possible?
So no matter how hard Prince Yu tried, it was all in vain. Except for Emperor Liang's sons, all of them died, leaving only Prince Yu. However, this possibility is very small.
"Boss, there are a lot of spies around, and Xia Dong from the Xuanjing Division has sent a letter."
A Da said as he walked in.
"Well, give it to me."
Chen Fang took a look at the content of the letter, and the general meaning was that the current emperor had already noticed this and asked her master Xia Jiang to investigate.
Haha, it seems that Xia Dong is afraid of the people around him, so he didn't come into the house to see Nie Feng. He usually comes here every night.
If outsiders didn't know the situation, they would think that she was here to have a secret meeting with Chen Fang, which was totally out of line.
"Boss, what about the people outside the mansion?"
Chen Fang sneered and said, "As long as they don't come in to disturb me, let them..."
In other words, as long as these people dare to come in, they will all be killed, regardless of whether it is the Xuan Jing Si or not.
In the afternoon, Mu Qing actually came to the door. He came alone this time and it seemed that something happened.
Mu Qing did have something to do. He had no good feelings towards Emperor Liang for holding him hostage in Nanjing, even though his sister told him to go find Mei Changsu if she had something to do.
But Mu Qing prefers to come here because there are many fun things to do.
"Brother Chen, are you busy today?"
"Oh, is there something wrong?"
He was usually inseparable from Yan Yujin.
It was like this, he was bored in Jinling City and was planning to go out of the city to hunt or something, but he was stopped and was told that he was not allowed to leave the city.
As for the person who gave the order, you don't have to think about it to know who it is.
Mu Qing complained while drinking, thinking that the food here was better than that in the palace. Chen Fang was generous, and they would come here whenever they had time.
"It's time for the princess to come back."
Mu Qing ate a piece of beef and said, "It's still three days before we can enter the city, but it's useless to come back. I really don't understand what this old emperor is thinking!"
What he said was extremely outrageous, but Chen Fang didn't care at all.
"With so many soldiers in your family, how can the emperor be at ease? He is afraid!"
"Hey, you don't know that my sister had an engagement back then..."
