"Is that so? Since Your Highness the Prince doesn't want to cooperate with me, why do you deliberately let Zhan wait for you here for more than an hour?" Zhuge Zhan gently tilted the corner of his mouth, and told Fang Shujing's thoughts in his heart. He wanted to be tactful with him. Fang Shujing was really far from being there.
When Fang Shujing heard this, his face turned red. His thoughts were simply seen through. Zhuge Zhan was indeed as smart as rumors, but what if he was smart? He was not qualified to cooperate with him.
Fang Shujing quickly calmed down his mood, straightened his body, looked down at Zhuge Zhan, and said proudly: "Cooperate? You don't have the capital to cooperate with me now."
"Is that true?" Zhuge Zhan looked at Fang Shuwen's proud look and was not angry. He slowly took a step forward. He asked softly: "Your Highness, the prince, knows that among so many people, why am I here to find you?"
Zhuge Zhan said without waiting for Fang Shujing to speak, and asked and answered: "That's because the Third Prince, you are not in a good situation now."
"My situation is not good?" Fang Shujing laughed out loud when he heard the sound: "I am a prince, and I am trusted by my father, and I have many subordinates. My situation is not good. Brother Zhuge, please stop telling jokes, okay? It's not funny at all."
"I'm never joking." Zhuge Zhan shook his head gently, stretched out a finger with a solemn face and said, "Third Prince, your ultimate goal must be to inherit the throne, but now it seems that you are not ahead of you. For the prince who can inherit the throne, this time, the Seventh Prince is ahead of you. His performance in disaster relief this time is much better than that of you, the Third Prince."
Fang Shujing listened to Zhuge Zhan's words and did not refute. Zhuge Zhan was right. The boy, the seventh boy, had really made contributions to the disaster relief this time. He had known that he should have tried to completely suppress him and prevent him from going to the disaster relief!
Fang Shujing was secretly regretting it, and Zhuge Zhan's voice came again in his ears.
"In addition to the Seventh Prince, there is also the King of Yingwu!"
"Yingwu Hou? What does this have to do with Yingwu Hou?" Fang Shujing was stunned: "Yingwu Hou, he is not from our Fang family. Unless he wants to rebel, it will never be his turn to sit on the throne!"
Fang Shujing looked at Zhuge Zhan with a strange look on his face. How did Zhuge Zhan talk about the Yingwu Hou all at once?
"It seems that you don't know the third prince yet. Yingwu Hou supports the fourth prince in private!" Zhuge Zhan looked at Fang Shujing with a smile!
"The fourth brother? He walked with Yingwu Hou? How could it be?" Fang Shujing looked at Zhuge Zhan with disbelief: "The fourth brother has never made any mistakes since he grew up, but he is not at all prominent among the many princes, and he has never done anything big for his father. How could such a mediocre fourth brother, Yingwu Hou, who is above the top, support him!"
Fang Shujing shook his head vigorously, not believing what Zhuge Zhan said at all.
"There is nothing impossible. The Fourth Prince is not as simple as you see. As far as I know, his heart is very deep. There are also the Fourth Prince among our four major academies! And Yingwu Hou, the news I got is that the Fourth Prince has always wanted to match his sister, Princess Anping, who is the same mother, with Yingwu Hou."
Zhuge Zhan has taken the initiative without realizing it.
"The third prince, now the fourth prince is in good terms with the Yingwu Hou, and the seventh prince has the help of the prime minister. One of these two is the heroes of the time and the other is the minister who is most trusted by the emperor. And you, although you have many subordinates, none of them can compare with Yingwu Hou and Chang Qianze. Besides, your subordinates have not performed very well in this disaster relief. Corruption of disaster silver and using their positions to make money through natural disasters, these things are all done by your subordinates. I think after the seventh prince comes back, the emperor will distrust you even more."
Fang Shujing himself did not expect that his situation would become subtle. Now, when he heard Zhuge Zhan’s reminder, he immediately realized that he was indeed in trouble now.
"Brother Zhuge, you have been talking about the problems I encountered just now. In fact, many people can see the problems. The problem is whether it can be solved!" Fang Shujing wanted to hear what Zhuge Zhan had.
"It is not a problem to solve it. Your Highness, you said that my father is the remnant of the previous dynasty, but that has nothing to do with me. It is me who revealed that my father is the remnant of the previous dynasty, and I should be a hero. So, first of all, you will not make the emperor have a bad impression of you when you work with me."
Zhuge Zhanxian told Fang Shujing that there was no need to worry, so he spoke: "As for solving the problem, I have support from the four major colleges behind me. I can use the influence of the four major colleges to increase your influence of the third prince. I can even help the third prince recruit some talents from the four major colleges to help the third prince. In addition..."
Zhuge Zhan stretched out a finger and pointed at his head, saying, "I still have this."
"Of course, Brother Zhuge, I know your intelligence." Fang Shujing's attitude towards Zhuge Zhan changed a little. Zhuge Zhan just said that he could use the influence of the four major academies to help him. Four major academies, who has heard of any prince who can get help from the four major academies? Not to mention princes, even the emperors of all dynasties, they have never been to the academies to help.
Moreover, Zhuge Zhan also promised that he could directly find someone from the four major academies to help him. Where are the four major academies? There are only three types of people in it.
One type is the kind that has real talent and knowledge, and is also amazing.
One type is the one with average knowledge but extremely powerful family.
There is another type that is powerful and talented in the family.
No matter which type of people Zhuge Zhan finds, it will be of great help to him. It is naturally the best to find the third type of people to help him.
Of course, Zhuge Zhan could find four major academies to help him, so naturally he could not surrender to him, so he could only be on par with him.
Fang Shujing quickly adjusted his mentality and welcomed Zhuge Zhan to take his seat in a regular manner. Then he asked politely: "Brother Zhuge, then I wonder if you have any suggestions for the current situation? Look at Lao Qi..."
"We cannot cause trouble with the Seventh Prince. Now the Seventh Prince's disaster relief matter can basically be said to be a major event. Moreover, this is a disaster relief, a major event that concerns whether the ruling foundation of the Great Qi Dynasty is stable. It is the emperor's personal attention. We cannot cause trouble for the Seventh Prince in such matters."
Zhuge Zhan raised his hand and pointed to the ground and said, "What we need to do now is to manage the capital well, and at the same time find a way to get rid of the seventh prince's right-hand man, the prime minister Chang Qianze and the clever Guo Feng!"
After dealing with the remnants of the previous dynasty led by Zhang Ouyu and killing many officials from the Third Prince.
Chang Sheng left the old devil to help Fang Shuwen continue to provide disaster relief in Lingdu City, while he took Guo Feng to Mengshan City.
Lan Keer's father Lan Yixing is in Mengshan City. Lan Keer is missing. He should ask Lan Yixing if he knows Lan Keer's situation.
By the way, you can also help Fang Shuwen check out the disaster relief situation in other areas when passing by Mengshan City.
Because Chang Sheng and Guo Feng left, in order to facilitate their actions, Fang Shuwen specially gave the two a prince order.
Prince Order, seeing the token is like seeing the prince!
Chang Sheng and Guo Feng left Lingdu City and rushed to Mengshan City.
After more than three days, the two of them had already felt the border area of Mengshan City.
Although Mengshan City and Lingdu City are two cities next to each other, because Mengshan City is relatively high and there were many heavy rains in the past, there were many flood control measures in the city and there were many flood control experiences. This flood caused Mengshan City to not have as much rainfall as other places. Therefore, Mengshan City became one of the few cities in Tianluo Province that were least affected by floods.
However, on the edge of Mengshan City, you can still see some houses that collapsed due to floods. The closer we get to Mengshan City, the fewer and fewer disasters are caused. However, pedestrians on the road are rare. Even if you see pedestrians occasionally, they are basically with a large number of convoys.
What's even more strange is that when these people saw Chang Sheng and Guo Feng walking on horseback, their eyes became very strange when they looked at them. Some people even looked at them and wanted to say something, but in the end they didn't say a word, just looked at them and sighed helplessly.
"Guo Feng, have you noticed that, why do I feel that everyone looks so strange when they look at us, they all seem to be looking at unlucky guys."
Chang Sheng rode on a maroon horse, looking at the people passing by him and others, and just said something to Guo Feng, and in the distance, a sound of unusually messy footsteps came over. Hearing this sound, he suddenly realized.
"Guo Feng, I think I should know why those people see us like this."
4 Guo Feng nodded, and footsteps came from afar, which clearly showed a group of people being chased. Thinking of the expressions that others showed when they saw only two of them along the way, it was not difficult to imagine that there must be rampant thieves nearby, so that all others would look at them with the look of unlucky unlucky guys.
"Let's go, Guo Feng, let's go forward and see what's going on ahead." Chang Sheng slapped his horse's butt and rushed forward.
Mengshan City has its own industry. If thieves are rampant, it will affect the prosperity of Mengshan City. If the prosperity of Mengshan City is affected, it will affect its prosperity.
Moreover, although Mengshan City is not within the scope of disaster relief this time, Mengshan City is so close to the disaster-stricken place in Tianluo Province. If Mengshan City is unstable, it will also affect the disaster relief situation.
So no matter what, he has to go to the front to see the situation.
