Chapter 22 Watch a good show

Zhao Jin glanced at Zhao Yu's desk, where a small piece of cloth was pressed.

This is really a good show.

After a full quarter of an hour, the movement outside disappeared.

After something like this happened, the banquet couldn't go on, so it was simply broken up.

When walking out of the palace gate, Zhao Jin vaguely heard the people next to him talking.

"What is all this? You can just make trouble behind closed doors. Now, let's go directly to the court."

"This third prince can't support the wall with mud."

"If I had a son like this, my life would be shortened by a few years!"

"Later I seemed to hear the princess's voice. It must have been the princess who came to persuade me and finally stopped."

Zhao Jin paused for a moment, then returned to normal.

As soon as she returned to the side hall, Mrs. Ning smiled and asked, "How was the banquet?"

"The show is quite good."

"Operation?" Mrs. Ning was a little surprised, "Did people even have opera singing at the banquet?"

Zhao Jin vaguely said, "Huh."

"By the way, mother, do you know what kind of person the princess is?"

"Why did you ask about the princess properly?" Mrs. Ning looked a little nostalgic.

"The princess is a very nice person. When my mother was favored, although others didn't say it on the surface, they were actually stumbling upon her secretly. Only the princess would help."

"Later, my mother was demoted to this side palace, and the princess also helped us several times."

"Last time you were sick, you needed the help of the princess to get the medicine. Otherwise, my mother wouldn't even be able to get the medicine if they stopped you."

Zhao Jin was slightly startled. He didn't expect that Princess Liang had actually helped them.

"Have you met the princess?" Mrs. Ning sighed slightly, "Mom has not seen the princess for a long time."

Zhao Jin shook his head, "Never, but I met the crown prince."

"Jin'er, the princess and the others have helped us, but we can't forget our roots."

"Don't worry, mother, I know."

"Prince." Zhao Er ran in, "There is someone outside who claims to be the Fourth Prince, and he said he is looking for you."

"Fourth Prince? Mom, I'll go out and take a look."

As soon as Zhao Jin went out, he saw the fourth prince standing at the entrance of the palace.

"Fourth prince, what's the matter?" Zhao Jin brought the fourth prince in.

The fourth prince entered Zhao Jin's room, looked around for a while, and thought of what he had just learned about Zhao Jin's situation.

"Jingyi and I will leave for Lilong Kingdom tomorrow, so we came here specifically to say goodbye to the eldest prince."

Zhao Jin smiled and said: "Fourth Prince, you're welcome, just call me by my name."

"During the banquet, I still didn't thank the Fourth Prince for speaking up."

"It's just a little effort." The fourth prince waved his hand, "In that case, I'll just call you Brother Zhao, and that's all."

Zhao Jin's eyes moved slightly, "I would like to ask, why is brother Si Xing helping me so much?"

"Hahaha, Brother Zhao, although his talents are average, he still has a good eye for people."

"I have learned about Brother Xing's situation. Now that Brother Xing is going to Yunzhou, I am the only one here. I'm afraid I don't feel at ease."

Zhao Jin pursed his lips and said, "But my father has a destiny and I have to obey it."

The fourth prince pondered for a moment, "If Brother Zhao can trust me, I can send two guards to stay with Mrs. Ning."

"If anything happens, there will be someone to take care of you."

"In addition, Mrs. Ning also needs money in the mansion."

"Then what does the Fourth Prince want?" Zhao Jin crossed his arms.

He and the fourth prince only had a mutual relationship, and he would not help without any reason. To be able to do this to this extent can only be said to have other motives.

The fourth prince smiled and said, "Yunzhou is the border of our Zhao Kingdom. Although it is not heavily guarded, it still has a lot of troops."

"Brother Xing wants to rebel?" Zhao Jin raised his eyebrows and said teasingly.

In ancient times, when soldiers were mentioned, their first reaction was rebellion.

Of course, he knew that this was impossible. Even if he really wanted to rebel, the fourth prince would not mention it to him.

The fourth prince was shocked by Zhao Jin's surprising words.

"Brother Zhao, don't say this nonsense!"

Zhao Jin smiled and said, "It's just a joke. Brother Xing, don't take it to heart."

The fourth prince could not help but curse: Is this a joke?

"I don't know what you mean by this, brother?" Zhao Jin said seriously.

"Brother Zhao went to Yunzhou. If we want to prevent invasion and harassment from other countries, we need soldiers."

"And if the soldiers are in the hands of others, Brother Zhao will also be controlled by others in Yunzhou, so he needs to take the military power into his own hands."

"I can help Brother Zhao."

Zhao Jin was unmoved, "So?"

"My power in the army is average." The fourth prince showed his fierce aura as a prince for the first time, "So I hope Brother Zhao can help me."

"I'm not interested in taking sides." Zhao Jin refused.

He could think of another way to withdraw his troops, but now he doesn't even know the situation in the court, and he will die faster if he rashly takes sides.

The fourth prince suppressed his smile and said, "Brother Zhao, don't worry, I'm not asking you to take sides."

"It's just that there are no people in the army. If something happens, it's easy to be framed by others."

"I don't want my subordinates to be attacked and framed by traitors because no one can help them."

Zhao Jin pondered for a moment, "I will not bend the law for personal gain."

The fourth prince smiled again, "That's it."

"Then I'll trouble Brother Xing."

The fourth prince clasped his hands together, "Then I'll take my leave first."

Not long after the fourth prince left, two people sent by the fourth prince came over, a man and a woman.

Zhao Jin tried it and found that they were all highly skilled in martial arts.

At night, another guest came to the side hall.

"Teacher?" Zhao Jin was a little surprised. It was already dark. Why did Ning Ce come here at this time?

"But what happened?"

Ning Ce looked a little solemn, "The prince has changed his mind."

"It was originally planned that you would go to Yunzhou after the Lantern Festival, but now you are leaving the day after tomorrow."

Zhao Jin was startled for a moment, then realized, "Oh, he really can't wait."

His handsome face darkened and was covered with frost.

"You are so popular today."

"Does the teacher think that if I give in, they will just give up?" Zhao Jin asked rhetorically.

Ning Ce was speechless for a moment.

Of course it's impossible. As long as there is a chance, those people will tear off a piece of flesh from Zhao Jin's body.

Zhao Jin put his hands behind his back and walked slowly to the window to look at the snowflakes in the sky.

"Since you can't, it's better to attack head-on than to give in again and again." Zhao Jin's every word was filled with evil spirits.

Ning Ce's eyebrows twitched and he couldn't help but take a few steps towards Zhao Jin, "I was quite surprised by your performance at today's banquet."

"I have never discovered that you can make such wonderful sentences."

"Teacher will know more in the future." Zhao Jin turned around, his expression unchanged.

Ning Ce looked at Zhao Jin's expression carefully, but couldn't find any clues, so he had to nod.

"The main reason I came here is to tell you about this. Be prepared. The prince's decree should arrive tomorrow."
