After three years of enfeoffment, the waste prince shocked the court boss

On the other hand, as the richest vassal prince of Suzhou Prefecture in Daqian, he couldn't even pay his sixth son in taxes.

It is reasonable for the father to favor the other party.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that I am in danger from the position of prince.

Li Xuan decided to take the initiative, looking for someone who could help him fight for the crown prince.

Li Xuan's mother and concubine had limited help, so he could only seek external power.

Sketching in his mind, finally a power group came into view.

Suzhou Prefecture is located on the southeast coast, and has been a place where shipping has flourished since ancient times.

The profits of shipping are astonishing, and the people who go to sea are also rich.

The three major families of Suzhou shipping, Zheng Chenlin and Lin have worked here since the previous dynasty, and now they are deeply entrenched and wealthy.

If I get the support of these three families, I will definitely be able to make Suzhou Mansion the number one mansion.

No matter how many outlandish things the sixth child has, the position of the crown prince must belong to him.

The more he thought about it, the more reliable he became, Li Xuan immediately decided to visit the rich family of the three surnames.

Although Zheng Chenlin has three surnames, they are of one mind to the outside world.

When they learned that Zhao Wang Lixuan was going to visit, the three families were quite puzzled.

And when Zhao Wang called his name, the three families couldn't believe their ears.

Support Zhao Wang to compete for the crown prince?

Is it now their turn to participate in this kind of thing?

The three surnames knew that although they had some money, they were far from qualified to run for the crown prince.

One bad thing is the tragic disaster of ransacking the family and exterminating the clan.

But the promise made by King Zhao made the three families unable to control their desires at all.

The condition Li Xuan gave was that the three families would help him ascend the throne, and after he ascended the throne, he would be allowed to specialize in shipping along the southeast coast.

Specializing in shipping, what a huge profit.

Dagan Shipping has its own charter, the size of your business, the number of ships, and the number of ship licenses issued by the government.

Cargo ships without ship licenses are either sunk or confiscated once discovered.

The three companies can operate to the current scale, but secretly there are many smuggling ships.

If it is true as what Zhao Wang said, then the three companies will be able to organize large-scale shipping in the future, and the profits will be huge.

Under Zhao Wang's sympathetic corporal's statement, the three families promised to help him ascend the throne with all their money.

He also led King Zhao to inspect the docks and freight yards of the three companies.

Seeing the mountains of goods and the roaring boatmen.

Li Xuan was very excited, with this help, how could he not develop Suzhou Mansion into the world's number one mansion.

What Li Xuan didn't expect was that the three families were open and honest, and he discovered a lot of unsightly things.

The three surnames, Zheng, Chen, and Lin, even worked part-time as pirates when they were engaged in maritime trade.

And from time to time, the southeast coastal islands were plundered, and the people on them were caught and sold overseas.

Although the people on those islands can't bring any taxes to Dagan, they are also the people of Dagan.

One side is his own people, and the other side is the helper to help him seize the throne.

For a while, Li Xuan fell into self-blame and entanglement.

It wasn't until a piece of news about Lingnan Mansion came out that he finally made a choice.

Chapter 82 The crowd took another look at you

Daqian, Longjing, 15 years.

The time has entered March, compared to the still cold north.

In areas such as the southern coast of Dagan, it is already the busy season for farming.

In the past two years, the people in the south have gradually planted more productive grains.

Among them, potatoes and sweet potatoes are the most popular.

In the south, the water and soil humidity is high, and these two crops grow very vigorously.

On the contrary, it is drought in the north, and the growth of corn is gratifying.

Recently, Lingnan released a new news.

The steam engine of the Lingnan Research Institute has made new breakthroughs, the research and development of the locomotive head is on the agenda, and the railway project is advancing in an orderly manner.

As soon as the news came out, the stock market prices soared within a few days.

I heard that Emperor Qian made a lot of money because of this, and sat in the Chengyun Hall endlessly praising King An for his outstanding ability.

This made the other vassals feel very uncomfortable.

Especially when Zhao Wang Lixuan, who regarded Li Su as an opponent, was struggling with whether he wanted to join forces with Haiyun's three surnames, when he heard the news, he immediately made a decision.

Although the family of the three surnames is unbearable, it can help him win the crown prince.

Right now, I will submit to them first, and when I become the prince and then the king, the wealthy families of the three surnames will be wiped out.

Since ancient times, those who have made great events do not stick to small details...

This is how Li Xuan hypnotized himself and reached a cooperation with the three surnames of Haiyun.

And his choice also brought him rich rewards.

The first is the arrival of a large amount of funds.

With money, Li Xuan did not enjoy himself, but devoted himself to the construction of Suzhou Mansion.

The old city walls were rebuilt, and dilapidated places of interest were refurbished.

Anything that can make Suzhou Mansion look prosperous is what Li Xuan pays attention to.

In these places, there is no livelihood.

The people are still living hard, working day and night just for one bite of food.

In the 15th year of Longjing, March [-]th.

Princess An gave birth to a son.

After Emperor Qian heard about Longyan Dayue, he issued an imperial decree and named him Li Cheng'an.

This news further stimulated Zhao Wang Lixuan who wanted to compete for the crown prince.

When his child was born, Emperor Qian did not give this honor.

"No, you can't let Lao Liu be so comfortable."

"Wang Kai has to be moved!"

After thinking about it, Li Xuan felt that he couldn't just do his best. Even if Suzhou Mansion was well built, Lingnan Mansion would not be idle.

Only by causing the development of Lingnan Mansion to fall into chaos, can he overtake Lingnan.

Wang Kai is still lurking in Lingnan, it's time to make him move.

Lingnan University.

Wang Kai has been in Lingnan for two months, and he has done nothing other than monitor An Wang's mansion in these two months.

However, some things, since they have happened, will not end without a reason.

For example, the teaching assistant status of Lingnan University.

Just when Wang Kai thought that as long as he did not step into Lingnan University, those nightmare memories would not appear.

A man found him.

"Brother Wang! Come with me!"

Wang Kai, who was shopping, tensed up when he heard Pei Li's voice.

Subconsciously, he wanted to escape from the other party.

However, Pei Li's hand was so strong that he couldn't break free.

The head of the guard at the side saw that the two knew each other, so he didn't stop them, but followed silently from a distance, pretending not to know each other.

"Brother Wang, where have you been all this time?"

"I couldn't find you even in your dormitory."

"The dean saw you in the crowd just now, and asked me to take you up for a reunion."

While talking, Pei Li dragged Wang Kai to a restaurant.

This is a two-story traditional restaurant.

It is completely different from modern reinforced concrete buildings, the former is more tasteful, and the latter is extremely luxurious.

Yuanweiju, the second floor.

Jia Siyan and a few old friends leaned on the railing for a drink, and a few teaching assistants followed suit and poured wine on a part-time basis.

Most of the teaching assistants at Lingnan University are students from poor families.

Jia Siyan felt that it was difficult to study, and would ask the professor to assign them some jobs to earn some living expenses to subsidize the family.

A few days ago, a teaching assistant named Wang Kai was praised by several professors.

It is said that his ambition is noble, hard-working, especially the painter Wu Daoxuan, who is very impressed with Wang Kai.

I found Jia Siyan several times and wanted to take this teaching assistant as a disciple.

Several people were chatting in the restaurant for a few days, and they saw Wang Kai by chance, and that's how Pei Li pulled people.

"Wang Kai! Why haven't you been to the academy these days, kid?"

"It's not like studying like this half-heartedly."

As soon as he went upstairs, Mo Ling yelled.

Just sitting there, this old man who was nearly sixty years old, gave people the illusion that he didn't dare to move rashly.

An oppressive body shape that blocks a small patch of sunlight.

Against the background, Wang Kai is getting thinner and smaller.

"Yes, yes, your kid disappeared without a sound."

"The old man's student has been looking for you for a long time."

Wu Daoxuan winked at him, completely ignoring Wang Kai's embarrassing desire to escape.

"Okay, okay, you two old guys."

"It's not because people are honest and easy to bully."

"Wang Kai, go back to the academy to get a set of school uniforms, and then get your textbooks."

"If you can't learn something after studying thousands of miles, it will be a pity in this life."

"In a person's life, there are a few good years that can be spent on learning, and they should not be wasted, you know!"

Jia Siyan's tone naturally carried an undeniable aura.

During the whole meeting, Wang Kai seldom spoke, his expression was in a trance.

All he knew was that before he left, he promised the old man who would not get angry and pretend to be arrogant, that he would report to the academy tomorrow.

"Mr. Wang, do you really want to enter Lingnan University?"

Back at the rented inn, the guard leader asked worriedly.

"what?"

Wang Kai was taken aback for a moment, feeling a little dazed.

"Didn't those people ask you to report to the academy today?"
