Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Chapter 66 The Prince Invited
After returning home, he found that his servants looked at him with fear. When they saw him, they hurriedly stayed away, thinking that Chen Ye dealt with corpses every day and had repeatedly solved strange cases in the past two days. Many people
I feel that there is a spirit in Chen Ye, otherwise why would he be so good at solving crimes? I'm scared. If I do something wrong and Chen Ye shows off his power, wouldn't it be a disaster for the family?
Yesterday, when she returned home after touching the body, no matter how long she washed it, there was still some body odor, so Zhao Xiao refused to let Chen Ye touch her, saying that she would not touch the body until later.
Chen Ye has been suffering these past few days and there is nothing he can do.
Chen Ye thought of a good idea. The Ministry of Punishment posted a notice asking anyone who wanted to learn the method of autopsy and engage in prison interrogation to express his willingness to teach.
However, three days passed, and no one was willing to come over. Until a down-and-out scholar came over and expressed his willingness to learn. Chen Ye also examined his knowledge and courage and found that he was barely adequate.
"What's your name?" Chen Ye asked this poor scholar.
After Chen Ye heard "Student Song Ci", he wondered if this was destiny.
In my previous life, I watched a classic TV show called "The Punisher of the Song Dynasty" in which Song Ci was played. I don't know if this was a coincidence, but since I had no choice, it was him.
Chen Ye has been bored these days. After all, there are not murder cases every day in the capital. Every day there are more questions about who took someone's cow, who stole something, who had an affair, whether the child is his, and so on.
Small things like this were interesting at first, but became more and more boring later on, and many things could be solved with just a few words. Chen Ye's image in the eyes of the people in the capital was getting better and better, and many people started to say hello to Chen Ye when they saw him.
"Good morning, Mr. Chen Ye, an upright official"
"Good morning everyone"
"Chen Ye, the honest official, my cat is lost."
Chen Ye greeted everyone slowly with a smile, but still had to maintain a good image.
"Sir, there is an invitation." The servant handed over an invitation. I saw that the invitation was actually inlaid with yellow silk and gold edges. The origin of this invitation was not small.
When he opened it, he saw that it was the Prince of the East Palace who invited him to the palace to talk to him, saying that he admired his handling of the case. Chen Ye actually didn't want to get involved too much with the Prince. To put it bluntly, he didn't want to take sides.
But the prince invited him and he had to go. If he didn't go, he wouldn't give the prince face. It would be difficult to get along in the capital in the future. So he had to bite the bullet and go. Chen Ye handed over the invitation and was guided to a side room.
Chen Ye was drinking tea out of boredom when he saw that the decoration in the mansion was extremely gorgeous. The idiom "magnificent" was very accurate.
"Do you think my house is very splendid and a bit luxurious?" The prince has come in. This is the current prince Han Zheng.
"I don't dare," Chen Ye became more respectful and did not dare to say more.
"Many people think so. It doesn't matter. In fact, what I do is also a way of showing off too much.
The power of the prince makes people dare not have any arrogance." Chen Ye was a little surprised that the prince could talk to him so intimately.
"Weichen thinks what the prince said makes sense." Chen Ye thought that flattering him was the right thing to do.
"I am aware of the conversation you had with my father in the prime minister's palace. I think the method you said is very good and I support you very much." When the prince saw Chen Ye insisting that he was right, he said something to attract others.
"Wei Chen, that's..." Chen Ye didn't know how to explain it. In fact, as a prince, as long as there are no accidents, the position in the future will definitely be his. What will happen to these disobedient younger brothers?
What to do? It's not good to kill him, it will show that he has no benevolence. What kind of conspiracy can he use to show that he has no measure as a king?
Chen Ye's views did not coincide with those of the prince. With such a think tank to help him, he should have no problem crushing the second prince.
Seeing that Chen Ye was embarrassed and silent, he pulled Chen Ye out and said, "Let's go eat."
When we arrived at the banquet place, the guests below the prince had already been waiting there. After some polite greetings, the prince took the main seat, and Chen Ye took the third seat behind him.
Chen Ye was a little flattered, and knelt down and kowtowed: "The official position of a low-ranking minister is humble, and he must not be in this position."
Other doorways reveal things you should have known better.
"I also feel that Chen Ye is not very suitable for that position. He is not a subordinate of the East Palace and his official position is relatively small." One of the disciples said, and the other disciples agreed.
"It doesn't matter, we are just communicating about the Ministry of Justice today. No matter how big or small the official position is." Now that the prince had spoken, Chen Ye sat in this position, which aroused the dissatisfaction of many people.
"Tell us about the case you solved." The prince spoke, and Chen Ye must have told us. But this fine banquet, and these dead bodies, will not affect the appetite.
"Some scenes are quite bloody. Wei Chen thinks it's better not to talk about it. We can exchange some literary things." Chen Ye really didn't want to talk about it, so he simply mentioned some literary things.
"Oh, by the way, I also remembered that my father also wrote a poem to me, "Bo Qinhuai", and I remind myself of it every day." The prince showed a very teachable and appreciative look.
"It's my honor."
"I don't know if Brother Chen has any other wonderful poems. Why don't we just use today's moonlight as the theme and make one for everyone to appreciate." A guest suggested.
"This is good," the prince also encouraged.
"That's a shame." Chen Ye pretended to be immersed in it for a moment.
"A pot of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without any intimacy. I raise a glass to invite the bright moon, and we meet the shadows of three people. The moon does not know how to drink, and the shadows follow me. I will accompany the moon for a while, and my entertainment must last until spring. I sing to the moon as it lingers
, my dancing shadows are in disarray. When we are awake, we make love, but when we are drunk, we are separated. We will travel together forever, and we will see each other again and again."
"It's wonderful," the prince said in admiration. He didn't expect Chen Ye to have some talents.
"Chen Ye is really the most talented poet in my country of Zhongshan" Prince
Chen Ye felt embarrassed when he continued to praise. This was a poem copied from the poet Li Bai. Which of Li Bai's poems was not a masterpiece? With five thousand years of history and culture in the previous life, since Li Bai called him a poet, it means that people have transcended.
Beyond the realm of mortals.
"This poem is wonderful, it should be paired with a song and dance." With a wave of his hand, the song and dance below began to perform.
Chen Ye watched the prince's disciples looking at the dancers in the middle with fascination. To be honest, these dancers were absolutely impeccable in terms of figure and beauty.
In order to agree with the crowd, although Chen Ye found it boring, he still followed them to enjoy it. The prince observed Chen Ye's affection from the side and saw that Chen Ye was not very interested in these women. This kind of beauty should not be able to catch his eyes.
"My lord, my lord, the prince will call you again," the maid on the side reminded.
"The singing and dancing are so beautiful that I was immersed in it for a while. I hope the prince will atone for his sins."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter"
"I heard that you established a chamber of commerce and it was very profitable."
"Weichen is just running a small business and can't get on the stage."
"My palace has a lot of expenses. I wonder if you have any suggestions." Chen Ye finally understood the meaning and wanted to join the Chamber of Commerce to get a piece of the pie.
"This is a partnership between several people. I can't decide, but I can contribute some methods to increase income for the prince."
"Oh, tell me." The prince was a little impatient. I made it so clear that I wanted you to give it. I didn't expect you to be so ignorant.
"I have a beauty trick, it's called snowflake ointment. Apply it on your face to beautify and anti-wrinkle. I'll give it to you after I return home." Chen Ye knew that he couldn't refuse the offer this time and would always give the prince some benefits.
"Is it the same as lipstick?" asked a customer below.
"There are some differences. I can guarantee that the sales volume will be okay," Chen Ye assured.
"I see that the prince values you so much, can we work together for the prince?" A guest proposed the theme of today's party, and Chen Ye knew he couldn't avoid it.
"Young man, my current position is humble. If one day the prince needs me, I will do my best." What Chen Ye was thinking in his heart was that I was talking about Ru Ruo anyway, not now.
"Well, I will write a memorial another day and help you walk around," the prince said.
"Thank you, Prince." Chen Ye stood up and knelt down to thank him.
The banquet continued, and everyone was chatting about some gossip. Chen Ye knew that he was too drunk, so he drank for a while and pretended to be drunk before going back.
"Prince, I don't think this prince can be easily used by us," a guest said straight to the point.
"What kind of hero would surrender so easily?" the prince murmured.
