Chapter 1013 Hard-to-Eat

Chapter 1013 Play hard to get

"Your Highness, there is absolutely no need for you to be like this!"

Ye Chen still continued to half push and half refuse.

But as he said this, he was laughing secretly in his heart.

Zhang Fan came in to ask for help, and everything he said, as well as the fact that he didn't deliberately reveal Nangong Lie's identity, were all planned by them in advance.

The purpose is to use Nangong Lie's help to suppress the group of officials in the Department of Law who practice favoritism and malpractice, and to eliminate the competitor of Longxing Carriage Rental Company on behalf of Zhengtu Carriage Rental Company.

"Don't worry, sir, you don't have to worry about this matter, I will find a way to solve it for you!"

Nangong Lie patted his chest and promised.

"Since His Highness is so kind, then it is better to be respectful than to obey!"

After Nangong Lie's repeated strong request, Ye Chen no longer insisted and accepted politely.

However, Nangong Lie had no intention of leaving immediately, and still stared at him feverishly, "Sir, what about my request just now..."

"How about I give you a few days to think about it?"

Ye Chen pondered for a moment and then said ambiguously: "Your Highness, as soon as you come here, you ask me to break the vow I made. This goes against my original intention. Please forgive me!"

"How many days will it take?"

Nangong Lie asked.

"I'm sorry that I can't give you a definite answer to this!"

Ye Chen shook his head.

"That's...okay!"

Although Nangong Lie was a little disappointed, he did not force it. He bowed respectfully to Ye Chen and then left with three steps.

Although he failed to ask Ye Chen, the Nanlang in the oracle, to come out to help, at least he could make Ye Chen relent and be willing to consider his request.

This is a big gain!

If he didn't come today, I'm afraid Ye Chen wouldn't even think about this problem.

And next, as long as he performs well enough and shows greater sincerity, I believe he will be able to move Ye Chen and let him help him fight for the throne.

Therefore, the first thing to do after leaving Tianlaizhiyin is to use vigorous and resolute means to clear out the officials of the Department of Law and Longxing Carriage Rental Company who colluded.

In addition, he also sent people to take over the entire Longxing Carriage Rental Company and was willing to merge it into Zhengtu Carriage Rental Company for free.

He did this naturally to satisfy Ye Chen.



The sound of nature.

"Ye Chen, why didn't you just strike while the iron was hot and wrest more power from the eldest prince's hands in one fell swoop?"

After Nangong Lie left, Li Fengyu asked in surprise.

Jin Lin also looked puzzled.

They thought that Ye Chen had completely turned the rumors into an oracle, and it was time to start crazily exploiting them.

However, just now, Ye Chen only solved the dilemma faced by Zhengtu Carriage Rental Company.

And this kind of humble profession, in front of the true pinnacle of power, seems insignificant to the extreme.

"This is just the beginning!"

Ye Chen said: "You have to eat your food one bite at a time. You can't rush this kind of thing. If you push too hard, it will only make the other party wary!"

"If progress is made too slowly, wouldn't it just give the other party more time to think about it?"

Li Fengyu still felt something was wrong, "After all, the eldest prince has countless think tanks around him. If they go back and study it carefully, they might be able to get some clues!"

"On the contrary!"

Ye Chen smiled mysteriously and said: "I need to play hard to get, so that the eldest prince will want my help more and more. I need to exhaust his patience little by little. Until he starts to lose his mind in order to gain my support, I can

Take him down in one fell swoop!"

"I see!"

Li Fengyu suddenly realized, "I can't believe that despite your age, the city is so deep!"

"If the city is not deeper, how can we gain a foothold in this complicated imperial capital?"

Ye Chen smiled, glanced at Jin Lin and Li Fengyu again, and said with a wry smile: "Fortunately, the closest people around me don't care about me!"

"Are you calling us stupid in disguise?"

Li Fengyu said angrily.

There was only Jin Lin, and not only was he not angry at all, but he felt very relieved.

Just because of Ye Chen's words "the closest person around me".

Just these seemingly unintentional words were enough to melt her heart and make her feel that it was worthwhile to follow Ye Chen silently.

"Dong dong dong!"

There was a sudden knock on the door.

Before Ye Chen could ask any questions, a woman's gentle voice came from outside the door, "Sir, the Fourth Prince Nangong Yuan wants to see you!"

"oh?

Is the fourth prince here too?"

Ye Chen seemed to have expected it, and immediately said: "Let him come in!"

Immediately, he turned back and glanced at Jin Lin and Li Fengyu, "You guys stay out of the way first, I want to greet the distinguished guests!"

The two women didn't say much and immediately disappeared into the darkness.

Not long after, Xiao Rong brought another elegant-looking young man wearing a silk and brocade robe.

It was none other than the Fourth Prince Nangong Yuan.

"I've met Mr. Ye!"

As soon as he entered the door, Nangongyuan bowed and saluted.

"Your Highness, the Fourth Highness, is here. What advice can you give me?"

Ye Chen asked politely.

"Master Ye, you are so smart, you must have guessed the purpose of my visit, right?"

Nangong Yuan was straightforward and asked the most pointed questions as soon as he came.

Ye Chen frowned slightly, secretly thinking that these fourth princes are really quick to talk.

However, he had already prepared a countermeasure for this, and said calmly: "Your Highness, the Fourth Highness, is ridiculous. I am just an ordinary person. Apart from having some minor skills, I am not as miraculous as everyone said!"

After a pause, he added: "As for the so-called oracle, it is just a rumor fabricated by some people with ulterior motives. I am also going to take the time to find the person who spread the rumor and let them come out to clear my name. Your Highness, Fourth Highness

Don’t you believe it too?”

Nangong Yuan's expression froze.

He wanted to curse loudly, "Didn't you make up this rumor yourself?

Are you still pretending to be stupid with me?"

Come to think of it, of course he couldn't really say it.

After rolling his eyes a few times, he said directly: "Mr. Ye, since you don't want to guess, I'll just go ahead and do it!"

He took a deep breath, stared at Ye Chen with burning eyes, and said word by word: "I want to ask you to help me fight for the throne!"

Ye Chen blinked, as if he couldn't believe his ears, and asked after a moment: "Fourth Prince, what you said...I'm sorry that I don't understand it!"

Nangongyuan almost fell to the ground.

What he said was so straightforward. Ye Chen was not an idiot, so how could he not understand?

The reason why I'm still pretending to be confused is definitely because I don't want to.

As if unwilling to do so, he retreated. After pondering for a moment, he said forcefully: "Master Ye, please make an offer. As long as I can do it, I will not refuse!"

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows and said with a half-smile, "I'm afraid the words of His Highness the Fourth Highness are a bit exaggerated, right?"

He just continued to act stupid just to make more detours and explore the background of the fourth prince Nangong Yuan to see what kind of price he was willing to pay in order to invite him to come out.

But now it seems that Nangong Yuan is well prepared.

Moreover, the price the other party is willing to pay seems to be very high, and it seems that it has reached the point where it can spend everything.

Since the other party is so determined, there is no need for him to continue to beat around the bush.
