The second and fortieth chapters draw salary from the bottom [1]
Ye Xiang bought these hunted monsters to feed his several divine beasts.
Seeing that it was getting late, they did not continue shopping. They hired a carriage and returned to the Duke's Mansion with some fatigue.
After dinner, Chu Lingfei couldn't wait to pull Nangong Piaoxue into her room to clean up today's spoils.
Ye Xiang quietly left the Duke's Mansion.
Not long after, Ye Xiang had arrived at the door of the seventh prince Liu Jinglong's mansion.
It seemed that he had thought that Ye Xiang would definitely come to him and let Ye Xiang into the mansion. Liu Jinglong took him directly into a secret room.
"Your Highness Seventh Prince, are the information you received about the Minister of Justice accurate?" Ye Xiang sat down on a chair in the secret room and looked at Liu Jinglong and asked straight to the point.
"Don't worry, this matter is absolutely accurate." Liu Jinglong immediately answered affirmatively.
"Actually, the second prince Liu Jinghui will definitely do such a hidden thing. How did you find out?" Ye Xiang asked in confusion.
"In my shadow organization, someone bribed a general manager in my second emperor's family." Liu Jinglong smiled and said, "A few days ago, you sent someone to send me a letter to me to pay close attention to the recent movements of the second emperor. I will order me to
They were secretly paying attention.”
"Why did the second prince wait until three days later? What is the evidence that the minister of the Ministry of Justice has?" Ye Xiang thought about it before continuing to ask.
"I don't know what the evidence is in the Ministry of Justice's Assistant Minister. The second emperor decided to take action three days later because the evidence was in the Ministry of Justice's Assistant Minister Cheng Yuming was not in his own hands at this time." Liu Jinglong explained: "Cheng Yuming had been ordered to do so before.
The case was investigated secretly by other places. He had only been back for a few days. The evidence he had was still on his way to the imperial capital."
"He didn't carry those evidence with him?" Ye Xiang asked quickly: "I don't know where the evidence he has is now?"
"I don't know this yet." Liu Jinglong shook his head and said, "The Minister of Justice is very cautious in doing things, and no one knows how he will use to transport these things to the imperial capital."
"I wonder how big the case he investigated is?" Ye Xiang thought for a while and continued to ask, "How wide is the connection?"
"This is a case of tax embezzlement in the second emperor's business for many years. It is very involved. I want to at least one-third of the important ministers who defected to my second emperor's brother will participate." Liu Jinglong thought about it and then
Then he said: "My father has secretly sent someone to investigate this case for three years, and finally the result was completely achieved."
"Do you know where the Cheng Yuming family is?" Ye Xiang thought about it and asked immediately.
After telling Ye Xiang about Cheng Yuming's address and the basic situation of Cheng Yuming in detail, Liu Jinglong continued: "I also know some of my second emperor's affairs, and I think it's better to tell you."
"What's the matter?" Ye Xiang asked hurriedly.
"Dong Governor Wesley and my second emperor's brother are very close. I think the Dong Governor should be my second emperor's brother's person." Liu Jinglong said very seriously.
"Director East!! I didn't expect that the Second Prince still had the East!!" Ye Xiang frowned slightly before continuing: "According to you, if the Northern Emperor was not in my hands at this time, the Second Prince,
Isn’t Your Highness the Prince already controlled one-third of the defense of the imperial capital!!”
"I'm afraid it's more than that!" Liu Jinghui frowned slightly before continuing: "The Governor of the Imperial City may have something to do with my second emperor!!!"
"How could this happen?" Ye Xiang frowned and asked immediately, "What about the Southern Governor and the Western Governor?"
"The Southern Governor should be my eldest brother, and the Western Governor should have defected to my third brother!!" Liu Jinglong said with a frown.
"So the imperial guards in the imperial capital are actually no longer under the control of the emperor?" Ye Xiang asked with a frown.
"As far as I know, as early as three years ago, my father could no longer control the imperial guards well." Liu Jinglong sighed and said, "My father's body also began to become very weak since then.
.”
"As you say that the situation is not optimistic at this time!!" Ye Xiang frowned slightly and said.
"By the way, you seem to be very concerned about the investigation by the Minister of Justice. Do you want to do something?" Liu Jinglong asked.
"Yes, I want to do something." Ye Xiang frowned and said, "But this matter does not seem to be as easy as it seems. The second prince is too powerful at this time. If I act rashly, he
He will definitely not watch his power suffer a serious blow, and unexpected situations may occur at that time."
"I'm worried about this too!" Liu Jinglong sighed helplessly and said, "Although the power of my eldest and third brothers is not much stronger than my second brother, according to the information I know, my second brother is the second brother.
The power in the dark is very large, not as simple as it seems!!”
"How is the emperor's health recently?" Ye Xiang thought about it and continued to ask.
"My father's body is still the same recently." Liu Jinglong sighed and said, "I'm also very worried. I'm afraid that once my father..."
"Next, you will continue to let the Shadow people stare at your royal brothers. You don't need to worry about the rest." Ye Xiang thought for a while and looked up at Liu Jinglong and said.
"Okay, be careful yourself!!" Liu Jinglong looked up at Ye Xiang and said helplessly.
"By the way, I have another thing to ask Your Highness!!" Ye Xiang just stood up, but slowly sat down.
At this time, he wanted to ask about the situation of the Crazy Lion Legion of the Dragon Teng Empire.
According to what Ye Xiang knew from Ye Jingfeng before, in addition to the Crazy Lion Legion, there is also a Tiger Legion in a neutral position in the empire. Ye Xiang is now trying to determine whether the Tiger Legion is in a neutral position.
.
Ye Jingfeng may not be able to understand this, but Liu Jinglong, who has been watching the situation secretly, must have known it.
"The Tiger Legion is the most loyal legion of my father, but this legion is not very strong, with only 300,000 people at present." Liu Jinglong replied: "The leader of the Tiger Legion Baili Changfeng is upright and has a strong personality, and
When I was a teenager, my father fought on the battlefield together, so at this time, my brothers had no idea to fight the Tiger Legion.”
"It seems that the only army that is truly loyal to your father now is the Tiger Legion!!" Ye Xiang frowned slightly and said.
"No," Liu Jinglong nodded helplessly and said, "It is precisely because of this that my father is unable to control the power of the empire."
"Your Highness Seventh Prince, you'd better not go anywhere recently. I may not contact you recently. If you have any questions, I will ask the brothers who follow me to come and contact you." Ye Xiang said as he stood up again
Get up.
"Okay!" Liu Jinglong stood up and nodded before continuing, "You must be careful. At this time, you are highly regarded by my royal brothers. If they know that you will not surrender to them, then they will turn around.
You may be the first to deal with it.”
"I know!" Ye Xiang nodded before turning around and walking out of the secret room.
After leaving the seventh prince's mansion, Ye Xiang slowly walked forward while lowering his head and thinking: "The power behind the second prince is so great. According to the seventh prince, he is now confident of seizing the throne.
Once the emperor dies, I think the second prince will probably become the new emperor of the Longteng Empire. Now the emperor's health is getting worse and worse. It seems that I must find a way to attack the second prince's power as soon as possible. First of all, I must pull out the Piaomiao Sect.
.”
When Ye Xiang returned to the Duke's Mansion, he had already had some conspiracy in his mind.
Walking to the door of Nangong Piaoxue's room, Ye Xiang knocked on the door gently and said, "Is Piaoxue here?"
"What's wrong with you?" Nangong Piaoxue's calm voice came out.
"You open the door and I have something important to discuss with you!" Ye Xiang said.
After waiting at the door for a while, the door of Nangong Piaoxue's room finally came slowly.
"What's the matter?" Nangong Piaoxue stood at the door and looked at Ye Xiang and asked calmly.
It was obvious that she didn't want Ye Xiang to walk into her boudoir.
"I have something important to discuss with you. You can't let me stand outside your door all the time, right?" Ye Xiang said with a smile at Nangong Piaoxue.
"Speak up if you have something to do!!" Nangong Piaoxue frowned slightly, and looked at Ye Xiang and urged softly.
"I know Piaoxue is not an ordinary woman. Are you afraid that I will fall in love with me because of this?" Ye Xiang said directly at the elegant and refined beauty.
"You...who is afraid that you will come in!" Nangong Piaoxue saw Ye Xiang looking at her so directly again and hurriedly dodging to the side. Her slightly angry tone soon returned to her dullness again.
"Come in."
Ye Xiang walked into Nangong Piaoxue's house and sat down at the table honestly and unceremoniously, but happened to see the cup of tea on the table that was still steaming slightly.
But at this moment, only half a cup of tea was left.
