Zhou Jingshi, who used to be radiant with holy light like a lotus, had begun to become more and more like a worldly person. Sometimes when Yinli looked at his bald head, she would occasionally remember that her former legacy was a monk.
For example, at this moment, Yinli felt that he didn't look like a monk at all.
Under Zhou Jingshi's calm gaze, Yin Li told him about Su Jinse's cooperation in the afternoon, and emphasized that she had made a guaranteed profit of two hundred chickens.
Seeing the little girl's smug look of "come and praise me", Zhou Jingshi couldn't help but touch her head and praised her: "You did a great job, my dear."
Yin Li immediately narrowed his eyes and smiled.
"Don't worry about Su Jinse's affairs from now on. My people will contact her."
"Oh." Yin Li nodded.
Zhou Jingshi changed the subject: "But you still have to eat two chickens a day in the future, and you can't eat too much." Seeing that the little girl was about to resist, he added: "But you can eat one more chicken every seven days, and four more chickens a month, okay?"
Yin Li nodded vigorously, finally getting some results.
Xiao Dibong was a little unable to look straight in the space. He was clearly holding the script of Fox Demon, so why did it become the script of How a Foodie Eats Chicken in Various Ways?
After Yinli fell asleep, Zhou Jingshi quietly got up to handle official business, and at the same time sent someone out to investigate Su Jinse's situation.
Many people think that it is ridiculous that a monk became the eldest prince and even Emperor Rui was paving the way for him and wanted him to inherit the throne. Can he become the emperor?
Which of the following does he understand: the political situation in the imperial court, the art of ruling the country, and governing the world? After you become the emperor, are you going to let everyone eat vegetarian food, chant Buddhist scriptures and pray for peace and prosperity in the world?
But everyone underestimated Zhou Jingshi. He was indeed a monk, and his starting point was indeed behind most people, but his previous experience as a monk was not completely useless.
He understands human nature better than anyone else, and his mind is more discerning and as long as he can judge the right person, he is already halfway to success. As for the other things he needed to learn, Emperor Rui taught him personally. He was smart and wise, and learned very quickly. Even some ministers around Emperor Rui marveled in their hearts, saying that he was born to be an emperor.
He has no trace of the compassion of a monk. If Master Tan Yuan was not too famous, even the eldest prince's followers would not be able to help but suspect whether their own prince deliberately shaved his head to confuse the other party?
In fact, there are reasons why Zhou Jingshi got the hang of it so quickly. One reason is that he is naturally smart, another is that he wants to protect Yinli, and of course there is one last reason.
Everyone thought that he was a man of wisdom and intelligence, even the abbot said that he was born a Buddhist. However, becoming a monk was never his choice. He just lived in a temple since he was a child and naturally became a monk.
He had no choice before, so he became a monk. Now he can choose, and he wants to be an emperor who can protect the people around him.
…
In a secret courtyard in the capital.
In the inner room, candles were crackling and burning. A man and a woman sat opposite each other without speaking.
After a while, Zhou Jingkong spoke first: "You rashly tried to test Fang Yinli, which aroused the Crown Prince's suspicion. Now the Crown Prince is unwilling to take action and the situation is deadlocked. What are you going to do?"
Things have been going very badly recently, and this has more or less something to do with Jiang Qingyan. No matter how patient Zhou Jingkong is, he can't help but want to blame her at this moment.
Jiang Qingyan had not expected that the prince would actually disobey her. The recent series of events had made Zhou Jingkong panic, and she was also panicked. Jiang Qingyan knew that the current situation would be different from the original plot, all because the fox did not follow the script.
She wanted to take action directly, but the system said that the other party's system was more advanced than hers. If she acted rashly, she might be caught by the other party.
Now that Zhou Jingkong was in trouble, she had to keep a low profile for the sake of the mission.
"Third Master, don't worry, I will definitely get this done for you. If all else fails, I will just take action." Jiang Qingyan thought so, but in her heart she was thinking about what props to buy in the system mall.
Zhou Jingkong felt very uncomfortable listening to her assurance. He thought about how many promises she had made to him during this period of time, and wondered which one she had fulfilled. If it were someone else, Zhou Jingkong would have walked away long ago.
But Jiang Qingyan is indeed capable, and Zhou Jingkong is still reluctant to give up on her.
"Give me a deadline."
Zhou Jingkong's voice was very calm. He no longer believed Jiang Qingyan.
Jiang Qingyan sneered in her heart, but tried her best to comfort him on the surface. If she didn't want the mission to fail, why would she be so hypocritical with this bastard?
As the night deepened, after Zhou Jingkong left, Jiang Qingyan carefully went over her plan and only went to bed after confirming that it was correct.
The next day, Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Crown Prince Zhou Jingnian looked at Jiang Qingyan in front of him and blinked: "Goddess, why do I think you look particularly beautiful today?"
"Really? Your Highness is really good at talking." Jiang Qingyan stroked the hair beside her ears, stepped forward and whispered in his ear: "Prince, when I came here today, I saw the eldest prince."
Zhou Jingnian blinked again, his eyes starting to become dazed: "Oh, what happened to seeing him?"
"I hate him."
"This prince hates him too."
Jiang Qingyan said softly, "Your Highness, since you hate him so much, why don't you kill him?"
"Kill him?" Zhou Jingnian's eyes seemed to be clear for a moment, but then they became unfocused. He stared at Jiang Qingyan blankly: "If you want to kill me, whatever the goddess says is the way to go."
"You have to do your best. Don't just do it in a small way." Jiang Qingyan smiled.
Zhou Jingnian nodded heavily: "I remember, I will do my best to kill him."
Jiang Qingyan saw him go out to give orders, and asked uncertainly: "System, are you sure this medicine works?"
"Anything produced by the system must be top-notch. The prince will definitely listen to you and kill Zhou Jingshi. And after he wakes up, he won't remember anything about you."
But none of them expected that the prince actually sent people to kill Zhou Jingshi, and he really tried his best to kill him.
Jiang Qingyan sat in the teahouse, listening to the people around her discussing the news, and was confused.
"Creating a rebellion?"
The system was also a little confused, but still answered honestly: "I don't know."
Jiang Qingyan was so scared that she immediately asked someone and soon found out that the prince had dispatched his troops and all his secret forces, rushed into the palace, shouting that he wanted to kill Zhou Jingshi.
She suddenly remembered what she said: Try your best~
“…”
If time could go back, Jiang Qingyan would definitely slap herself to death for saying this!
"System, what's going on?"
"This has nothing to do with me." The system quickly passed the buck, "I've told you about the efficacy of the medicine. As long as people take it, your words will be true. It was you who told Zhou Jingnian to do his best."
Jiang Qingyan was so angry that she wanted to curse. How did she know about this medicine and this person? They were both so stubborn, bah! So stupid! Can't you turn?
