Daqing: Reborn Prince, intercepting Si Lili at the beginning

Looking at Jian Jiuhuang, Qingniao, Mr. Shisan and Gong Yu in front of him, Li Chengyuan suddenly felt confident.

"Let me introduce you to each other first. You know Lao Huang, and this is Qingniao. She is my personal maid and you can trust her absolutely.

"Bluebird, these two are the managers of Miaoyinfang. This one is Mr. Thirteen, and this one is Gong Yu. They are my right-hand men and women, and you can trust them absolutely!"

Upon hearing this, Qingniao nodded to Mr. Shisan and Gong Yu as a greeting.

The two of them also smiled kindly.

After they got to know each other, Li Chengyuan continued, "I came back this time because I suddenly felt that it was time to explain something to you!"

Several people were shocked at once and hurried to listen carefully.

Li Chengyuan looked at the four people, paused, and then said seriously: "After careful consideration, from today on, I will officially participate in the fight for the throne and seek the position of Crown Prince!"

"Hi~!"

When these words were spoken, the four of them were all surprised and delighted.

Although they are all servants rewarded by the system, they are living people with flesh and blood.

And everyone has a complete life experience in this life.

Therefore, apart from being loyal to Li Chengyuan and never betraying him, they are no different from other normal people.

Just like Lao Huang loves wine and women, and Gong Yu is reluctant to leave him, etc.

As normal people, they definitely hope that Li Chengyuan can get better.

Especially in the fight for the throne.

If Li Chengyuan ascends the throne and becomes emperor in the future, they will all follow suit!

So after Li Chengyuan announced this, the four of them were not afraid at all. Instead, their eyes were full of excitement and passion.

It seemed as if they had been waiting for this day for a long time!

Chapter 24 Li Chengyuan's plan! Kyoto is boiling!

"Your Highness, we all listen to you. We will do whatever you say!"

Mr. Thirteen, a mature and prudent man, was the first to express his opinion.

The other three followed suit.

Li Chengyuan waved his hand and said, "I understand your intentions, no need to say more.

The reason I tell you all this is that I want you to help me find the gaps and fill them. One person's wisdom is limited, but two people's wisdom is great. If I rely on myself alone, there will inevitably be things I can't take care of.

In addition, after you understand the situation, you can help me do things more effectively!"

Everyone nodded to show their understanding.

"Well, let me tell you about my current situation!"

Everyone actually basically understands Li Chengyuan's current basic situation.

The only thing they didn't know was Li Chengyuan's true life experience and the existence of Fan Xian.

This time Li Chengyuan planned to reveal a little to them.

This is to prevent them from being unable to distinguish between friend and foe when Fan Xian comes to Beijing in the future and causing another misunderstanding.

The reason I didn't tell them everything was because I was worried that they might let something slip and do something wrong.

When it comes to secrets, the more people know them, the greater the risk of exposure. Even absolute loyalty cannot guarantee complete safety.

So Li Chengyuan could only reveal part of it.

"In addition to what I just said, there is another important fact: I have a twin brother!"

"What?" Everyone was stunned when they heard that.

"Wait, Your Highness, aren't you the Queen's son?" Mr. Thirteen asked in confusion.

Li Chengyuan shook his head and said, "My mother is not the queen, she is just my adoptive mother. The prince and I are not born from the same mother, and my brother from the same mother is someone else!"

"Who is this person?" Gong Yu asked curiously.

"His name is Fan Xian, and he's currently in Danzhou. He's nominally the illegitimate son of Fan Jian, the Minister of Revenue!"

"Tsk!" Several people looked at each other, all extremely surprised by this incident.

Li Chengyuan ignored their reactions and continued, "What I want to say is that my brother is not a simple person. If he goes to Beijing, he will definitely take power quickly. At that time, if he and I join forces, our chances of winning will be very high!

But the problem now is that His Majesty actually has no intention of letting me take over. He only regards me as a whetstone for the Crown Prince.

Therefore, if I act too strong, His Majesty will definitely not let Fan Xian enter the capital. That's why I was hiding my abilities before and wanted to wait until Fan Xian arrived in the capital before making any decision.

I just didn't expect that plans couldn't keep up with the changes, and now I can't hide it anymore!"

"So that's it!" Everyone suddenly understood.

"Then what does Your Highness plan to do?" asked Mr. Thirteen.

Li Chengyuan said, "My idea is to temporarily stabilize Emperor Qing, the Crown Prince, and the Second Prince, and then find an opportunity to form an alliance with the Crown Prince.

As long as I form an alliance with the prince.

The most anxious person is not the Second Prince, but His Majesty.

Your Majesty wants to temper the Crown Prince, but he will never tolerate the Crown Prince being too powerful!

Therefore, once I form an alliance with the Crown Prince, Your Majesty will definitely find a way to weaken the Crown Prince's power.

That will be Fan Xian's best opportunity to enter the capital!"

Li Chengyuan thought very clearly.

The opportunity for Fan Xian to go to Beijing was to get engaged to Lin Wan'er, and then seize the financial power of the inner treasury from the prince!

What Li Chengyuan did was to force Emperor Qing to weaken the power of the crown prince.

Only in this way can he allow Fan Xian to enter Beijing!

That's how he came up with the idea of ​​having the best of both worlds.

Li Chengyuan had a good idea, but Mr. Thirteen was a little worried.

“But Your Highness, if you do this, everyone will think that you have defected to the Crown Prince. If the Second Prince falls in the future, the Crown Prince’s position will be completely secure, and you will have no chance to fight with the Crown Prince again.

After all, everyone will think that you are the prince's man at that time.

If you rebel against the prince, you will be considered treacherous!"

As for this question, Li Chengyuan waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Sir, you are worrying too much. The Crown Prince and I can only form an alliance. I will not surrender to him.

To put it another way, it doesn’t matter even if the outside world misunderstands us.

Because by then, I have a way to make the Crown Prince voluntarily give up the throne!"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Thirteen immediately said, "If that's the case, then this old servant will have no problem!"

Li Chengyuan looked at the others.

The others shook their heads.

If Mr. Thirteen has no problem, then they will have no problem at all.

"In that case, I won't say much, you all know what you need to know.

Your current task is still to develop in a low-key manner.

There isn't much going on in Kyoto right now, so this is the best time for us to develop!

Once Fan Xian arrives in Beijing, the conflict will inevitably intensify. At that time, we will not be able to develop with peace of mind.

So, please take advantage of this period of time and pay more attention to us.

Mr. Thirteen, I'll leave the matters of the bookstore and Miaoyinfang to you!"

Mr. Thirteen immediately replied, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I will do my best!"

...

After chatting with his confidants, Li Chengyuan left Miaoyinfang.

When he left, he also took away several girls from Miaoyinfang.

After all, there must be a reason for him to come back.

It was exactly three days later and there was a lack of people to entertain us.

He took a few girls back to rehearse, and they came in handy that day.

......

In the evening, Li Hongcheng came to see Li Chengyuan.

Li Chengyuan told him some things, and Li Hongcheng immediately said there was no problem.

Throughout the city of Kyoto, there are many people who like to hold poetry gatherings.

But the ones with the highest status among them are Li Chengze and Li Hongcheng.

These two really deserve to be able to play together.

They all like to discuss poetry and philosophy with literati.

The two mansions hold a poetry gathering almost every month, rain or shine.

That's why Li Chengyuan asked Li Hongcheng for help.

If you want something like a poetry reading, he's the right person to go to.

Li Hongcheng is indeed very capable and has a wide network of contacts among literati and poets.

Almost overnight, the news that Prince Li’s Mansion was going to hold a poetry banquet spread throughout the entire Kyoto city!

Not only that, the next morning, this incident was even published in the latest issue of the newspaper!

Now, everyone in the entire Kyoto city knew that the third prince Li Chengyuan was going to hold a poetry meeting at Prince Li’s mansion.

For a moment, the whole city was in an uproar, and all the scholars in Kyoto were tempted.

They all asked through their connections how they could attend the poetry dinner!

Chapter 25: Fan Ruoruo attends a poetry reading? He Zongwei? Yang Wanli!
