Prime Minister's Mansion.

Ji Tae was not lying on the bed.

Instead, he sat in the newly built study room.

The door to the study room was closed tightly, and there were two strong men holding swords guarding the door on both sides.

There were three people in the study, and the atmosphere was very solemn.

Ji Tai sat at the main seat, and opposite him was an old man wearing a black robe and a black scarf.

On the side is the old man sitting in a wheelchair wearing the same black robe without covering his face.

Ji Tai's eyes fell on the face of the masked old man opposite and asked: "How?"

"A battle!"

Ji Tai frowned, "When will we fight?"

"Just today!"

Jitai was startled, then heard the masked old man opposite say again: "What I said is not a war!"

"It's easy to deal with Li Chenan!"

Ji Tai was stunned again, "Sir, please speak clearly!"

"At this time, everyone from the temples to the neighbors in Kyoto is talking about Li Chenan!"

"This is extremely detrimental to the Prime Minister, but it is very beneficial to Li Chenan's reputation. Therefore, the first thing the Prime Minister has to do now is to draw everyone's attention away from Li Chenan."

"Use another big event to attract everyone's attention and downplay the impact of Li Chenan."

"This is to reduce its power!"

Ji Tai stroked his long beard and thought for three seconds, then asked doubtfully: "May I ask, sir, what other major event could be more eye-catching than when he scolded me until he vomited three liters of blood at the great court meeting?"

The masked old man smiled sinisterly: "Master Xiang, this is a fan of the authorities!"

"Isn't there something big happening right now that could shock the world?"

"This autumn, the tax grains from Jiangnan have arrived at Shuangjiao Lake. The tax grains were robbed... Is this a bigger deal?"

Ji Tai was immediately shocked. This was of course a big deal, but...

"The Emperor is in the palace!"

"It's because the emperor is in the palace. Think about it, Prime Minister, the emperor will definitely be furious when he hears about this."

"Whenever the emperor gets angry, he will definitely ask Changsun Jinghong to send the Imperial City Secretary to arrest the bandits!"

"Back then, Empress Lu planted the large-leaf banyan tree in the Imperial City Division, and Changsun Jinghong guarded it for twenty years. Now he has guarded it until Li Chenan, who succeeded the Imperial City Division."

"Changsun Jinghong is well aware of the food bandits in Shuangjiao Lake."

"Originally, Chang Sun Jinghong planned to send MI7 to Shilipo to rescue the food delivery team, but he eventually changed his mind and instead assisted Li Chenan to eliminate the headquarters of the Fish and Dragon Society..."

"Now that I think about it, Changsun Jinghong's move is probably to kill two birds with one stone!"

Ji Tai leaned over and asked, "How do you say this?"

"First, destroying the headquarters of the Fish and Dragon Society, destroying the prime minister's hard work, and gaining Li Chenan's trust in him!"

"Second, keep the matter of Shuangjiao Lake water bandits robbing food!"

"Li Chenan was appointed by the emperor as the deputy director of the Imperial City Department. This must be Changsun Jinghong's suggestion to the emperor."

"Don't let Changsun Jinghong sleep under the crooked tree in the Imperial City every day. His mind never stops for a moment!"

"Li Chen'an successfully became the deputy of the Imperial City Department. Then he wiped out the water bandits in Shuangjiao Lake and retrieved the tax revenue from that day and sent it back to Kyoto... Prime Minister, think about it, what a great achievement this is!"

The masked old man suddenly reached out and knocked on the table, making an aggressive sound:

"With this great achievement, Li Chenan is truly the eldest son of the emperor in the heart of the emperor, who is both civil and military, brave and resourceful!"

"With this foreshadowing, Li Chenan's entry into the East Palace will definitely be a done deal!"

"This is what Changsun Jinghong wants!"

"In the future, Li Chen'an will ascend the throne and become emperor, and the old accounts of Zhaohua for three years will be overturned again..."

The masked old man also leaned over: "The Huanhua River will be dyed even redder!"

Ji Tai was suddenly startled, and asked after a moment: "But, in the three hundred years of Ningguo, there has been no precedent for a prince who has been in charge of the Imperial City Division to ascend the throne as emperor!"

The masked old man laughed: "What is a precedent?"

"If Li Chenan ascends the throne and becomes emperor, he will set a precedent! Does the prime minister dare to bet?"

Ji Tai took a deep breath, "But in this way, I lose the Fish and Dragon Club, and then I lose the food that I have saved for two years in Shuangjiao Lake... The price is too high!"

The masked old man raised his eyebrows and said, "Mr. Prime Minister, you are in trouble!"

"You were originally a chess player, but at this moment, Li Chenan messed up your sense of proportion and turned you into a chess piece!"

"This plan is certainly not to give that day's amount of food to Li Chen'an to pave the way!"

"If Li Chenan wants to do this, he must leave Kyoto!"

"As long as he leaves Kyoto, even if he takes everyone from the Imperial City Division with him... Shuangjiao Mountain, that place is an excellent burial place!"...

"The eldest son is guarding Tai'an City. The eldest son can also guard Shuangjiao Mountain!"

"Besides, Duke Yan and Duke Luo can't just wait for good things to happen later, right?"

"Also, the White-clothed Alliance and the Imperial City Division have a sworn feud! If the White-clothed Alliance gets to know this news, I'm afraid they would also be willing to cooperate with the Prime Minister."

"Bury Li Chen'an and the elite of the Imperial City Division in Shuangjiao Mountain... Let the White Clothes Alliance bear the responsibility for this crime. The prime minister will be safe, and the plan will be easier to pull off!"

"This is taking his life!"

"Having said this, I will leave Kyoto. The Prime Minister will continue to play this game of chess!"

Ji Tai was startled: "Where are you going, sir?"

The masked old man did not reply.

He slowly stood up and walked behind the old man in the wheelchair.

He suddenly stretched out his two hands, grabbed the old man's head, twisted it suddenly, and heard a "click".

The old man's eyes bulged and he went to see the King of Hell without making a single sound.

Ji Tai was startled and pointed at the body slumped in the wheelchair:

"……This is?"

"He has heard my voice many times."

"He has always wanted to see my face."

"This matter is too critical today. He knows too much."

"There are many spies from the Imperial City Division 1 outside. I want to leave in this wheelchair..."

"His identity is Miao Qiufen, the former commander of the Second Division of the Imperial City Department!"

"After I leave, I will hang his body in the octagonal pavilion outside in the evening."

The masked old man dragged the body of the old man off the wheelchair.

He sat in a wheelchair, and the middle-aged man walked out from the corner.

Without even glancing at the body on the ground, he pushed the wheelchair toward the door of the study.

Suddenly, the masked old man turned back and said a few words to Ji Tai:

"Don't screw this up!"

"If he returns to Kyoto, he will live next door to you!"

"I haven't learned how to make his fireworks yet, so that guy really dares to throw one or two at you every now and then."

"In addition, you need to stabilize the hearts of the people in the court. Isn't it just vomiting three liters of blood? What does losing face for a moment mean compared to the overall situation?

"If you don't go to the palace, I'm afraid those officials will have different ideas, and all these years of management will be in vain."

"Goodbye!"

He raised one hand and waved with his back to Ji Tai.

"Sir, when will we see you again, sir?"

"Wait until the news that Li Chenan is buried in Shuangjiao Mountain is confirmed!"

The wheelchair ran over the low threshold and the cloister. He just sat in the wheelchair and left the Prime Minister's Mansion in a swagger!
