Seeing Su Zhenting leaving, Su Jinpa, who knew her father's temper, knew that there was absolutely no room for compromise in this matter, and she stamped her feet in anger.
After thinking about it, Su Jinpa walked towards the outside of the general's mansion without looking back.
"Miss, where are we going?" the maid asked cautiously, following Su Jinpa step by step.
"Go to my brother and see if there is anything that can save my father's life," Su Jinpa said angrily.
The little maid wants to say that even if the master wants to take back his life, the fierce prince may not be happy...
But looking at her young lady's expression as cold as frost, the little maid still swallowed the words that came to her lips.
...
The next day, Li Chen received a report from Chen Tong as soon as he got up.
"Your Highness, the Ninth Prince left the city today, greeted by Wang Tenghuan and others."
Li Chen raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you going to provide disaster relief?"
Chen Tong replied: "Yes, and I left Tong County early in the morning with the approved food and grass. All the way, the banner of the Ninth Prince representing the royal family's sympathy for the victims and relief for the world was played."
Li Chen sneered and said: "These civil servants have no other abilities. Their ability to fool the people was born from their mother's womb."
"The day before yesterday, the Ninth Prince was beaten so hard that he couldn't get out of bed. Today he can go to the disaster relief. These people really work hard to gain fame and benefits."
Chen Tong rolled his eyes.
Sanbao made His Highness Lei Lei so furious that he almost had his head chopped off. This matter is no longer a secret. In fact, Chen Tong was the first to know the news.
Now Sanbao is hurried to Xishan Province with his confidants. In Chen Tong's view, this is his perfect opportunity.
If I can please His Highness during this period of time, the position of commander of the Imperial Guards will be my own.
In this way, he is truly the second-in-command of Dongchang, rather than a subordinate with a slightly higher status under Sanbao.
"Your Highness, are you going to bring some royal guards with you to secretly embarrass the Ninth Prince?" Chen Tong asked quietly.
Li Chen glanced at Chen Tong expressionlessly, and his cold gaze made the hair on Chen Tong's body stand up.
"Put away your little cleverness."
Li Chen said coldly: "When I think you are good, you can do it even if you are not good. But when I think you are not good enough, the more you do, the more mistakes you make. Do you understand?"
When Chen Tong heard this, his expression tightened, and his body was as stiff as a javelin. He said in fear: "I'm humble...I know, please forgive me, Your Highness."
"Whether it is the Ninth Prince or even Zhao Xuanji, to put it bluntly, it is all a struggle for power, but power is based on the people. If this disaster cannot be relieved, the chaos will continue to expand, and no one will be able to eat if the table is overturned.
This is the tacit understanding that I and Zhao Xuanji maintain together."
Li Chen made a point, whether Chen Tong can understand and how much he can understand is his own destiny.
After finishing speaking, Li Chen stood up and walked towards the outside of the palace.
"Let's go to the General's Mansion."
This time, Li Chen went to the General's Mansion not to find Su Zhenting, but to connect with his future Crown Princess Su Jinpa.
With his previous experience, as soon as the housekeeper of the General's Mansion saw Li Chen, he immediately led Li Chen to his young lady's boudoir in the backyard, thinking wildly while leading the way.
Previously, my general was a hereditary champion, and he was extremely honorable, but he had no real power.
Now he has real power. The Grand Governor of the Fifth Army Command has actually commanded 300,000 elite troops in the Gyeonggi region.
If my young lady becomes a crown princess in the future and a queen in the future, it will truly be the first family to become prosperous.
With this thought in mind, two brothers and sisters, Su Pingbei and Su Jinpa, walked towards them.
"The last general, Su Pingbei, meets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
