When Yao Xiaoren came to the East Palace, Chen Changfeng was talking to Tang Xueer.
There is also ice cream that Tang Lin just delivered on the table.
"Prince." Yao Xiaoren bowed his hands and walked over.
"Old Yao, why are you here?" Chen Changfeng was a little surprised. Yao Xiaoren should have a head as big as a bucket now.
Abolition of civil servants and military officers is a difficult task.
How come he still has time to come here?
"Prime Minister Yao, please sit down and try this." Tang Xueer served Yao Xiaoren a bowl of ice cream.
"Thank you, Princess." Yao Xiaoren nodded, but he was not in the mood to eat this now.
When Tang Xueer saw that Yao Xiaoren was silent, she knew that he had something to discuss with Chen Changfeng, so she left the courtyard.
Yao Xiaoren looked around and saw no one else around.
Then he slowly said: "On the way here just now, the people from Jingzhao Mansion were preparing to seal Fengxue Shupu. It should be the order of the Second Prince and the others."
"But Qisha helped you take care of him..."
"Seven kills?" Chen Changfeng was surprised.
He hadn't received the news yet, and he didn't expect Qisha to help solve the matter.
"Yes, the Seven Kills at that time..." Yao Xiaoren simply told Chen Changfeng the situation at that time.
"Prince, these seven killings are really not easy. No wonder the Seven Kingdoms have wanted him for so many years, but they haven't caught him."
"You can see that today he easily made Jingzhao Mansion look like a lost dog."
"If the prince can completely subdue him, it will definitely be a big help." Yao Xiaoren sighed.
Chen Changfeng nodded slightly.
He had seen Qisha's cleverness before when he was assassinated in Binhu.
If he hadn't been lucky enough to beat him and the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty arrived in time, he might not have been able to escape from the Seven Killers.
However, regarding Qisha's help, Chen Changfeng still understood why he did this.
It's just that he gave him a house and he didn't want to owe him a favor.
"Seven kills is not bad." Chen Changfeng just gave this answer.
Yao Xiaoren was a little unexpected.
"Old Yao, you came to me, isn't it just about the Seven Kills thing?" Chen Changfeng looked at Yao Xiaoren.
Yao Xiaoren smiled bitterly.
Of course I am not doing it for Seven Kills.
"Your Highness, I just received news that the second prince went to the former Minister of Rites' residence, probably to persuade Du An to oppose the imperial examination."
"Duane was His Majesty's husband back then. If he had taken action, things would have been very difficult."
"Moreover, they will never convince Du An alone. Prince, you must be mentally prepared." Yao Xiaoren said in a serious tone.
Eighty-nine percent of the officials in the DPRK and China are opposed to it.
If the emperor had not agreed to Chen Changfeng's proposal, and Chen Changfeng used the border military report at the right time, the officials in the DPRK and China would not dare to speak.
Otherwise, those who take the imperial examination and get official positions in the court will be pressed to death in the cradle.
But the second prince, the third prince and a group of Ming officials obviously would not give up.
Once they convince those old ministers, even the emperor will not be able to have his own way.
Once the imperial examination failed, Chen Changfeng would not have many days in the Ming Dynasty.
The officials will not let a guy who goes against all of them stay in the court.
No matter how powerful Chen Changfeng is, he will never be able to deal with the entire court.
"I have already made plans for this matter. Don't worry, old Yao, come and have some ice cream." Chen Changfeng nodded and motioned for Yao Xiaoren to try it.
Hearing Chen Changfeng say that he had a plan, Yao Xiaoren finally felt a little more relaxed.
After taking a brief taste, Yao Xiaoren's face showed a look of shock.
…
"This He Ping'an is a complete loser." The second prince felt very annoyed.
The dignified Prince of Jingzhao was actually killed by an assassin.
And not with fists or kicks, but with a few simple words, the governor of Jingzhao was severely beaten by the people of the capital.
Now the people in the capital know that they want to block the news about the imperial examination and official recruitment.
It is simply impossible to seal Fengxue Bookstore again.
Even because of this matter, more and more people will know about the imperial examination.
This move is really like stealing the chicken but losing the rice.
"Your Highness, that guy He Ping'an didn't bring many people there at that time, so..."
"You didn't bring many people?"
"Why don't you let the third brother send an army to destroy Fengxue Bookstore?" The second prince looked grim.
Qisha was originally arranged by them to kill Chen Changfeng.
As a result, Qisha followed Chen Changfeng and killed Liu Qingyan's family, causing him to lose his position as Minister of Civil Affairs.
Now this Qisha helped Chen Changfeng stop the Jingzhao Mansion and spread the news of the imperial examination further.
The second prince now hates this bastard Qisha so much.
The young man did not dare to speak. Because of Chen Changfeng, the second prince had recently become extremely irritable and completely lost his former calmness.
The second prince also realized his problem, took a deep breath, and slowly calmed down.
Although He Ping'an was incompetent and failed to get things done, at least his results today were quite fruitful.
The former Minister of Rites, Du An, had promised to summon a group of old ministers to advise the emperor to give up the idea of taking the imperial examination.
News has just arrived from the Third Prince's side that their grandfather's King of Shu has also nodded and is willing to lead a group of senior generals to persuade the Emperor.
The second prince knew that although he was persuading on the surface, he was actually forcing him to go to the palace.
There are so many people who oppose the imperial examination, and many of them are even the emperor's elders. Let's see if the emperor dares to have his own way.
"You go to the Third Brother's place later and tell him that tomorrow morning, we will kneel outside the imperial city together. This matter cannot be delayed for too long." The second prince turned around and looked at the young man behind him.
The boy nodded quickly and quickly ran out to deliver the message.
The second prince stood there, looking towards the East Palace, with a stern look in his eyes.
…
"Your Majesty, this is a snack sent by the Crown Princess. I asked Your Majesty to try it." In the study room, Liu Xi took the ice cream that Tang Xueer had just sent and placed it in front of the emperor.
The emperor looked up, his eyes looking a little tired.
He didn't sleep last night because he was worried that the imperial examination would still be obstructed by hundreds of officials.
Hearing the snacks sent by the Crown Princess, the emperor's face showed a hint of relief: "That boy Changfeng must have such a virtuous wife and remember me as the father, otherwise I will never be able to eat the food sent by his East Palace in my whole life."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince probably just doesn't pay much attention to details." Liu Xi explained in a low voice.
"It's not that he doesn't pay attention to details, he just doesn't pay attention to my father." The emperor snorted coldly.
How could he, the emperor, not know what Chen Changfeng was like?
As soon as he stuck his butt out, he knew what Chen Changfeng was going to do.
Liu Xi didn't dare to speak and could only smile with her face.
"Well, this thing tastes good. What is it called and how is it made?" The emperor took a bite, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Princess said it was the Prince's idea to call the ice cream." Liu Xi explained.
"The ice cream is really good. There seems to be crushed ice in it."
"Where did the ice cubes come from at this time?"
"Didn't you say before that the Tang Mansion's ice cubes were blocked by Lao San?" the emperor asked doubtfully.
The emperor knew that the third prince threatened Tang Mingren, but he did not take care of it.
There are too many things in the world, and the emperor cannot worry about everything.
But the Tang Mansion obviously couldn't transport ice, so where did the crushed ice in this ice cream come from?
"It seems...it seems that His Highness the Crown Prince taught Tang Mansion a method of condensing water into ice." Liu Xi said, he himself felt that this thing was a bit ridiculous.
