"Guanyin Maid, are you going to find me?"
On the road, Li Shimin met Queen Changsun who was walking towards him.
"Your Majesty." Empress Changsun saluted Li Shimin.
"Let's go, I'm in a good mood today, come with me for a walk." Li Shimin felt very happy, thinking about the stunned looks on the faces of all the courtiers just now.
Even hunger has been forgotten.
Empress Changsun originally wanted to come to the emperor to discuss matters, so she might as well take a walk.
All the eunuchs and maids who were serving him followed at a distance.
Queen Changsun was silent for a while, and then took the initiative to ask: "Your Majesty, I heard that Zhao Chen suddenly left Chang'an City, but it was because of me."
Queen Changsun was on the road just now and had a lot on her mind.
Zhao Chen's sudden departure without saying goodbye seemed to have happened right after he held a banquet at the Lizheng Hall.
After that, Zhao Chen suddenly left.
"Definitely not. That boy went to the village in Wannian County because he was worried about the locust plague this year. He went back to take a look. He will be back soon."
"Guanyin Maid, let me tell you, last night that guy Yuan Tiangang predicted that the prince would help solve this locust plague. Everyone else thought it was Cheng Qian. Only I know that Yuan Tiangang was talking about Zhao Chen."
"But what I can be sure of is that even Yuan Tiangang himself didn't know that the person he was talking about would be Zhao Chen." Li Shimin said happily.
Of course, it concealed the real reason why Zhao Chen left Chang'an.
But after saying this, Queen Changsun would naturally not think about herself.
"This Yuan Tiangang still has such abilities?" Empress Changsun was a little surprised.
"I still have some ability, but it's not enough to compare with Zhao Xiaozi. It's far behind."
"You didn't see that I was just in the Taiji Palace telling the ministers about the method Zhao Chen told me to deal with the locust plague, and those old guys were all staying there."
"Everyone thinks that I came up with the idea myself."
"Well, the only pity is that I found that these people, combined, are no match for Zhao Chen in dealing with such problems." Li Shimin was quite excited, but then he sighed inexplicably.
Hearing the emperor say that the idea given by Zhao Chen shocked everyone, Queen Changsun was naturally happy.
But after all, she was still worried about the relationship between Zhao Chen and Li Chengqian.
"Your Majesty, Zhao Chen didn't come over last time when he knew that I invited the prince to a banquet. I am still worried that the two of them will cause trouble." Empress Changsun and Li Shimin expressed their inner worries.
Li Shimin frowned.
Although Li Chengqian didn't pursue what he said about Zhao Chen in Tai Chi Hall today, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
At this moment, hearing Queen Changsun mention this matter again, her mood instantly cast a shadow.
"The prince's recent behavior is indeed outrageous. In the academy, he plotted against his husband, and almost caused trouble on Mrs. Fang Xuanling's birthday."
"I don't know if his kindness in the past was just an act."
"Mr. Guanyin, I think it's time to beat the crown prince?" Li Shimin looked at Empress Changsun and said in a deep voice.
Beating the prince is not her harem's business.
Moreover, after all, the prince was a child that she had raised for more than ten years, and Empress Changsun cherished him very much.
"Your Majesty, the prince is the crown prince, even if his status is..." Queen Changsun paused and then said:
"Everything should still be based on guidance. I feel that if your Majesty has time someday, you should go to the East Palace to see the prince and talk to him more."
"Well, Guanyin, you are right. Although Cheng Qian is not my biological son, the relationship is like that of father and son. I will find time to go to the East Palace to see him." Li Shimin nodded.
It can be regarded as agreeing to Queen Changsun's suggestion.
"Then Zhao Chen's child..." Empress Changsun was still concerned about Zhao Chen after all.
"It's okay, that old guy Wei Zheng is with him, and Ruoshuang also went to Wannian County yesterday. That kid is living a more comfortable life than us." Li Shimin smiled and comforted Empress Changsun.
…
Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu rushed back to Chang'an City from the village.
At this moment, the academy has already gone on holiday, and the students are also in disarray.
Without Zhao Chen, the students would have no intention of studying.
The academy has long been empty.
"Qin San, let's go separate ways to gather people and try to contact them all before night."
"When time comes tomorrow morning, we will attack all the shops of the Boling Cui family in Chang'an City." Cheng Chumo discussed with Qin Huaiyu.
"Wait a minute, we need to discuss it. Some people have a good relationship with the prince. Should we call him?" Qin Huaiyu asked Cheng Chumo, who was about to leave after calling him.
The relationship between Zhao Chen and the prince was already extremely tense.
This incident seemed to only embarrass the Bolingcui family.
In fact, he was also telling the prince that he, Zhao Chen, would not sit still and wait for death.
Then whether to contact those academy students who have a better relationship with the prince is a big question.
Contacting them is equivalent to breaking up with the prince. Others don't know that the prince cooperated with the Bolingcui family to deal with Zhao Chen, and the prince himself doesn't know.
At this time, if the people looking for the prince go to deal with the Bolingcui family, aren't they dealing with the prince himself?
Isn't this just an open and honest declaration of war with the prince?
After all, he is the prince, and putting everything on the table will ultimately be detrimental to Zhao Chen.
"I feel that once we attack the Bolingcui family, we will definitely offend the prince. In this case, it is better to be cruel and tell the prince that we are not afraid of him."
"Qin San, don't be afraid, I'll handle it if something happens." Cheng Chumo patted his chest and vowed.
Qin Huaiyu had no other good idea at this time.
Anyway, since we have decided to do something ruthless, we should not be timid.
He also wanted to see if the prince would jump out.
"Let's go find someone." Qin Huaiyu nodded.
…
In Duke Xing's Mansion, Fang Yizhi was leaning against a pillar. The fish mark in the water was swaying gently, but Fang Yizhi didn't feel anything.
The academy was closed and he had nowhere to go.
In the past, he liked to walk birds and fight cocks with other people, but he also found those things boring.
Fishing is just to pass the time.
"Sir, when will you come back?" Fang Yizhi sighed and shook his head.
He felt that he was happy when he studied with Zhao Chen, but now he is unhappy.
"Eldest Young Master, Young Master Cheng is looking for you." Fang Yizhi was just thinking about when Zhao Chen would be able to return to the academy when he heard someone outside saying that Cheng Chumo was here.
This guy Cheng Chumo is Zhao Chen's follower.
He must know when Zhao Chen will return to Chang'an.
After throwing down the fishing rod, Fang Yizhi's face lit up with joy and he shouted to others: "I'll be there right away."
