Chapter 717: The arrow has to be fired on the string

The Eastern Palace at midnight was surprisingly brightly lit. The palace maids and eunuchs dared not sleep at this time. They didn't touch the ground and handed over water. The princess was also sitting and lying down. Fortunately, the prince's car driver finally came back. Just as he was about to go out to greet him, he realized that it was not only the prince who had returned, but as a female family, he had to go back to the back garden.

Zhao Huan passed through the middle gate angrily and arrived at Yangde Hall. An eunuch handed over a copper basin and asked the prince to clean his hands. Zhao Huan raised his hands and knocked the copper basin to the ground. The water in the basin was splashed everywhere. The eunuch was so scared that his face was pale and immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

Chen Rui, the head of the Eastern Palace, who was chasing, said at the top of his voice: "You go down first, the prince has to discuss with the two adults if you have something to do."

The eunuch was as if he had been amnesty and left quickly.

Cheng Jiang and Li Bangyan also chased after him. The two of them were in a hurry and their expressions were not very good. Before they could stop, Zhao Huan said angrily: "Did you hear what the person surnamed Chen said? He actually dared to threaten the palace with a sword. This palace is the blood of His Majesty, and the nobles of heaven are so noble. Now they want to give way to an other surname. Hum... Where is the world in the world? Is it going to change the world?"

Cheng Jiang and Li Bangyan both looked at each other. The prince was not unfamiliar with his mood, but losing his temper at this time was useless. Cheng Jiang said: "He is used to being arrogant and arrogant. He is too presumptuous to rely on his favor in the palace."

Li Bangyan said: "You can no longer tolerate evil spirits, but King Pingxi is deeply loved by the holy family and has great power. I am afraid that even the prince will not be his opponent."

Zhao Huan sneered: "Will I be afraid of him?"

Li Bangyan smiled faintly and said, "It's not that Your Highness is afraid of him, but now Your Highness is still Qianlong. It's urgent to wait for it to become more important."

Cheng Jiang thoughtfully said, "You can't wait any longer. If you wait like this, the world only knows that there is the King of Pingxi, but you don't know that there is the Eastern Palace. Your Majesty trusts him. If he speaks sweetly, speaks cleverly, and slanders you, your Majesty will listen to your Majesty, and it is unknown whether the Eastern Palace can protect it. Now the Eastern Palace and the King of Pingxi have broken their faces. At this point, can you still expect him to be kind and not obstructed? The Eastern Palace will not coexist with the King of Pingxi in one day. Will the subordinate Li not know this truth?"

Li Bangyan was silent, but Cheng Jiang's words were not unreasonable. Since his face had been torn apart, he would not believe that Chen Ao would not be afraid. One day, the East Palace would inherit the Grand Tutorial, and the first person to be beheaded was King Pingxi. Chen Ao was not a rural woodcutter, so of course he knew that the Eastern Palace would never allow the Grand Tutorial to be inherited.

Zhao Huan's face was blue and white, and he said, "Is there any way?"

Cheng Jiang was silent for a moment and said, "Only the court can know the grievances of Your Highness, it is better to..."

Zhao Huan raised his eyes, rolled his Adam's apple a few times, and seemed a little nervous, saying, "I'm afraid of causing trouble."

Cheng Jiang said seriously: "Cai Jing tolerate it, what's the result? Does Your Highness still want to deal with it?"

Cheng Jiang said: "The only way now is to spread the news all over the world tonight. I will take the lead and submit a memorial to impeach it. I don't believe it. People in this world will tolerate a King of Pingxi bullying the Eastern Palace. As long as someone starts, they will definitely respond to it. What's more..." He glanced at Li Bangyan and said lightly: "What do the subordinates of Li think?"

Li Bangyan complained in his heart, they were trying their best, but their own life was still hanging. But then again, he surrendered to the prince. If he didn't do something, he would not be the prince's confidant. Li Bangyan hesitated and said seriously: "I will accompany you to the end. As the chief assistant, how can I let Lord Cheng take this lead? Let me be the front pawn of this matter. The disciples submit memorials first, and Lord Cheng will come and fight again."

Cheng Jiang felt a little sad. He had done this well, just because he could not do it. Even if he couldn't, the palace would not blame him. Of course, Li Bangyan rushed to do such a good thing. He felt a little unhappy, but when he thought of the other party's identity, he had to nod and said, "If Li's subordinate came forward personally, this matter would be easy."

Seeing that they were rushing to the forefront, Zhao Huan aroused some ambitions. Zhao Huan understood what he said just now, but now he could only break the matter to death. He had a chief assistant and a minister of the Ministry of Personnel. These were all trump cards. As long as these two people were willing to set an example, they didn’t know whether they could die and apologize, at least they would have to let this sigh.

He asked someone to bring a cup of tea, and his whole body seemed much calmer. He took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Do you know why the King of Pingxi took down the Zheng family?"

Cheng Jiang said: "Please tell me your superiors."

Zhao Huan smiled faintly and said, "It was because of the momentum that the Zheng family was announced in front of the whole world and in front of the civil and military officials of the court. Even if the father was determined to protect the Zheng family, it was too late. In fact, the King of Pingxi is the same. He must not take action until the city is full of wind and rain or the evidence is conclusive."

After hearing what Zhao Huan said, Li Bangyan couldn't help but remember something and said, "There have been some news from the people in the Palace of Pingxi. Recently, many people have been recruited, all of whom are strong men, thousands of them. Now the King of Pingxi has supported them in the suburbs of the city, and I don't know what Chen Ao plans to do."

Cheng Jiang's eyes shone and he said excitedly: "I have heard of this matter, and it is true. Can the person who came forward to recruit him know who it is?"

Zhao Huan couldn't help but say, "Why should Lord Cheng keep it a secret?"

Cheng Jiang said: "Chen Ji!"

Li Bangyan couldn't help but say, "It turned out to be him, Chen Ji, who impeached His Majesty and Cai Jing and was dismissed from his post. By the way, Chen Ji is indeed the guest of the Pingxi Wang Family. His Majesty has never liked this person. He heard from His Majesty three months ago."

Zhao Huan said: "What did Your Majesty say?"

Li Bangyan said: "This person is named directly, sensational, loyal to the outside world, but actually treacherous. He also said that when he thinks about it, he really hates it. If he hadn't been the teacher of King Pingxi now, he would have to be punished again."

Zhao Huan nodded. Chen Ji was really hurt by his father. He was always very happy with merits. He was in his prime at that time and was fascinated by Feng Hengyu. However, Chen Ji made a memorial and scolded Zhao Ji. Unexpectedly, his father was still resentful until now.

Li Bangyan closed his eyes and said, "It's easy to do if it's Chen Ji. He recruited so many people under the order of King Pingxi, so what should he do in the suburbs of the city?"

Zhao Huan sat silently on the chair in a daze, thought for a moment, and said, "Is the goal very big?"

"This may not be used to deal with Your Highness's back." Cheng Jiang interrupted.

Zhao Huan nodded slowly and said, "I'll check this matter first." Then he said to Li Bangyan: "It's not too late to find out first, and then take action."

Li Bangyanhe nodded and said, "Don't worry, your highness, it's easy to investigate this matter. There will definitely be clues in so many people."

Zhao Huan seemed tired and hungry, so he asked someone to bring some pastries and let Li Bangyan and Cheng Jiang accompany him to eat, while saying, "Take this kung fu, Lord Cheng, don't be idle either. This palace will let everyone in the world know about the matter tonight."

Cheng Jiang smiled and said, "This is easy to say. Just ask a few people to go to the Consulting Bureau to clamor for a few times."

After using pastries, Zhao Huan shook his head and sighed: "I have been the prince of the palace for so many years. It's okay to suffer some grievances, but today I am humiliated by the King of Pingxi, and this tone must not be swallowed. Whether success or failure depends on the two adults." After saying that, he wanted to salute Li Bangyan and Cheng Jiang. Li Bangyan and Cheng Jiang were shocked and stopped him quickly. Cheng Jiang said: "Your Majesty, don't be discouraged." Li Bangyan said: "Your Highness is a little patient, and there will always be a day to see the clouds."

Zhao Huan's words just now were so heart-warming, especially the sentence that the prince who had been in charge for so many years also had a sense of rebellion, but being willing to say it in front of the two was like treating them completely as confidants. Li Bangyan breathed a sigh of relief at this time. No matter what, although this incident made him sweat a coldly, it also made him a blessing in disguise.

The three of them exchanged greetings for a while, and Cheng Jiang and Li Bangyan said goodbye. Zhao Huan personally sent them to the palace gate and repeatedly instructed: "Don't let anyone know about the matter tonight. If you have wealth in the future, you will definitely repay you with a spring."

Cheng Jiang and the others took a sedan chair and left. When Li Bangyan returned to the mansion, it was already midnight. He was just in the sedan chair and yawned, but as soon as he landed, he became energetic. Too many things happened tonight, which made him not digested for a while. The King of Pingxi suddenly tore his face with the prince, which made him have no chance to choose. Even if he was reluctant, he would have to do this front pawn of the Eastern Palace.

He arrived in the hall and was silent for a moment before he told the man to say, "Go, call Hu Li."

Hu Li is the head of the Li family's house. He didn't dare to sleep if the master didn't come back, so he kept waiting. When he heard that the master had come back, he didn't ask him to go to bed immediately. As a result, he was just lying down and was woken up again, and rushed here in a hurry.

Li Bangyan said to him: "Come on, sit down and talk."

Hu Li seemed a little flattered, and hurriedly looked for a seat with his butt, and said, "What are the instructions for me?"

Li Bangyan exclaimed and said, "I'm asking you to come, there's something you really want to do. Do you know that the Pingxi Prince's Mansion is recruiting people everywhere?"

Hu Li said without hesitation: "I know, a few days ago, didn't the old lady say that the outside house lacked a few strength to do the job? She taught the villain to recruit a few. Who knew that for a few days, she couldn't find a strong man. Later, after inquiring, she found that the Pingxi Prince's Mansion was also looking for people. They were all strong men, Yueyin Wushen, and this idle man in Bianjing was not jealous, so no one cared about the old lady's explanation."

Li Bangyan listened to Hu Li’s gossip patiently and said slowly: “So let you find out why the recruitment of Pingxi Prince’s Mansion is about recruiting people, why the recruitment is done, I will give you two days and report the news in two days.”
