Chapter 300 Demonstration (6)

Xie Jingxing was looking out the window. Upon hearing this, he glanced lazily at the two of them and said, "Are you guys free?"

"You have some friendship with Miss Shen, so don't you care about it?" Ji Yushu said, "Xie San Ge, you are smart, you must know."

"I don't want to know." Xie Jingxing interrupted him: "I have to go out of town soon."

"Is it about the Jade Rabbit Festival?" Gao Yang asked with a frown.

"The emperor plans to send old man Xie to the battlefield in the spring," Xie Jingxing said, "We can't wait any longer." The "old man Xie" he was referring to was naturally Lin'an Marquis Xie Ding.

Gao Yang was silent for a while before he said, "If that's the case, I'm afraid we won't make it in time."

"I heard that Chen Yuan has been very close to Prince Ding recently." Xie Jingxing raised the corner of his lips: "Does it seem like he is preparing to deal with the eldest branch of the Shen family?"

"Miss Chen is going to be unlucky again?" Ji Yushu was a little surprised: "Why does she always provoke these malicious people? Prince Ding is not a good person. Who has a good ending after being targeted by Prince Ding?"

"Prince Ding is a man of unfathomable depth," Gao Yang frowned. "Although he seems to have no desire for power, his private military strength is no less than that of others. Chen Xin holds military power, and he is guilty of possessing a treasure even if he is innocent. The Shen family is wealthy and powerful, and is already feared by the royal family. If Prince Ding takes action, Chen Xin will probably suffer a serious blow."

"Isn't Miss Shen in danger?" Ji Yushu looked at Xie Jingxing: "Third Brother Xie, how are you going to help her?"

Xie Jingxing raised his eyebrows: "Why should I help her?"

"You, you two are not... let's just say you are friends." Ji Yushu's eyes widened: "Didn't you save her before? Aren't you going to help Miss Shen?"

Xie Jingxing glanced at him with a half-smile, his eyes as deep as a pool of water, clearly showing an extremely romantic look, but his words were cold and indifferent. He said: "I need the Shen family to help me delay time, Prince Ding will deal with Shen Xin... very good."

Ji Yushu took a breath.

…

At Prince Ding's Mansion in Dingjing City.

The young man on the high seat was dressed in light-colored fancy clothes. He looked stern, but when he spoke to the people below, he was very friendly, which melted some of the sternness.

This person was none other than Prince Ding Fu Xiuyi.

Several strangers sat in the hall, all of them serving as advisors to Prince Ding, Fu Xiuyi. He knew how to employ talented individuals and was known for his respect for the virtuous. While ordinary princes might have offered their advisors money and land, none treated them with the same respect he did. Not only did they treat him as an equal, but they also spoke with the utmost respect. It was precisely because of this attitude that Fu Xiuyi had attracted so many wise men. It was also because of these wise men that Fu Xiuyi's plans and grand plans remained unknown to the world, including Emperor Wenhui.

The young man sitting in the middle was dressed in blue. His appearance seemed a little out of place among these staff members, simply because he was too young. He stood up, and Fu Xiuyi asked: "Chen Yuan, if you have any ideas, feel free to tell me."

Chen Yuan bowed to Fu Xiuyi. He had been secretly associated with Fu Xiuyi since he entered the government. Fu Xiuyi was very good at recruiting talented people. Chen Yuan was talented and ambitious, and he could endure the loneliness of serving in a foreign post. Naturally, Fu Xiuyi had high hopes for him.

Chen Yuan said, "Right now, everyone is secretly competing for military strength. Whoever has the military will have more bargaining chips. Ming Qi's current military strength is divided between the Xie family in the south and the Xin family in the north. Although the Xie family has a strong military force, His Majesty must have other plans when he ordered the Lin'an Marquis to go to war after the spring. The Xie family cannot be moved, but the Shen family is different." Chen Yuan paused before continuing, "Chen Xin took the initiative to propose staying in Beijing for half a year. There are many people who want to win over Shen Xin. The Shen family army is too unpredictable. If we can't get it, it's better to destroy it. If we take this gamble, it may be in line with His Majesty's wishes and prove that His Highness has no other ambitions."

Shen Yuan himself is a member of the Shen family, but he keeps saying "Shen family", clearly not associating himself with Shen Xin. His words are clearly directed at Shen Xin. Fu Xiuyi looked at him with a smile, perhaps he understood but pretended not to know. After all, Shen Yuan's words only benefited him and had no harm. He said: "You are right, but the Shen family can't find any loopholes now. Even if you want to find mistakes or loopholes, there is no reason."

Shen Yuan didn't say anything.

Fu Xiuyi's eyes flashed, and his tone became more cordial: "But since you are in the Shen Mansion, you must know some things that ordinary people don't know." He looked at Shen Yuan: "If we can really control the Shen family this time, you will have made the greatest contribution."

After receiving the assurance he wanted to hear, Shen Yuan spoke respectfully: "Your Highness, I have been infiltrating the army long before. When the Shen family army was fighting in the northwest, some things were not in accordance with the rules. I am still collecting evidence. Once the evidence is complete, I will present it to you. I promise that even if I can't completely defeat the Shen family army this time, at least it will be severely damaged."

Fu Xiuyi smiled faintly: "Then I'll trouble you to take care of it."

Shen Yuan bowed his head and smiled.
