Li Hansheng believed that Xie Boyuan could not have any contact with Shen Zhi behind his back. Of course, he also believed that Shen Zhi would not dare to get involved with any force easily.

However, Xu Shengyuan was so sure that Li Hansheng felt that he should go back and ask Mingjia about this first. Li Hansheng figured things out, got up and walked out.

Xu Shengyuan stood up and wanted to stop him, but Li Hansheng suddenly stopped and turned around and said, "I'll go back and ask if your tea doesn't taste good. I'll invite you to my place for tea tomorrow!"

After saying that, Li Hansheng strode out of Xu Mansion.

Ming Jun and Ming Jia came back in two carriages, and Li Hansheng had been sitting in the hall waiting for a while. Mingjun and Mingjia entered the hall and greeted them first.

"No need to be polite, sit down!" Li Hansheng said casually. Then he turned to Mingjia and asked: "Jiajia, who did you learn your soft sword from?"

Ming Jia felt that this question was a bit abrupt, but there was nothing to hide, "Qu County Lieutenant Shen County Lieutenant!"

When Li Hansheng heard that the county captain's surname was Shen, he quickly asked again: "Is there any personnel in the capital?"

Ming Jia shook his head, "I remember Shen County Lieutenant said that he was from Chuanzhou, but his parents died young and he grew up with the help of kind people."

Ming Jia felt that Li Hansheng's attitude was a bit strange and couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Li knows this sword technique?"

Li Hansheng really didn't recognize him. Li Hansheng shook his head and said, "I just noticed yesterday that the swordsmanship you used was not Cheng Si's swordsmanship, so I thought of asking."

Li Hansheng didn't ask any more questions, so Mingjia had no doubts. Li Hansheng thought it would be better for him to write to Chuanzhou and ask Xie Boyuan.

There was still some time before dinner, and Li Hansheng suddenly proposed that he wanted to try Mingjun and Mingjia's kung fu.

Mingjun and Mingjia were not shy children, so they naturally agreed happily, even eager to give it a try.

In the Qinzheng Hall of the palace, Emperor Liang was leisurely eating snacks sent by the queen, and watching the prince correcting memorials on the table nearby.

After a while, Emperor Liang felt a little bored, so he put down his snack and wiped his fingers with a silk handkerchief. Suddenly he said: "Why do you suddenly want to check Chen Shao'ang!"

The prince's hand paused while correcting the memorial, but fortunately he reacted quickly and put away Zhu Pi's brush, otherwise the memorial would have been stained. The prince quickly calmed down his mind by lowering his head to put away his pen and move the memorial.

"Father, you have given so much power to me. Father trusts me very much! I don't need to hide anything, just tell the truth!" The prince comforted himself in his heart.

When the prince looked up again, his face was already filled with a proud smile. He wanted to compete with his father in a battle of wits and courage, and finally succeeded by luck. "My father would never have guessed that this is an unexpected surprise."

Liang Jingchen's words seemed as if Chen Shao'ang's whereabouts were a small game between father and son, and now he had guessed Chen Shao'ang's whereabouts and even Chen Shao'ang's future career.

Emperor Liang had no intention of hiding it from the prince, but he had not yet determined whether Xuzhou was suitable for building a port. Emperor Liang suddenly became somewhat interested in how the prince noticed Chen Shao'ang.

Liang Jingchen secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his father really didn't blame him for checking Chen Shao'ang, nor did he deny Chen Shao'ang's whereabouts. I also talked about how Xiao Mingjun passed through the capital when he returned to his hometown to take the imperial examination and wrote letters to Taifu Xie when he came back.

Emperor Liang suddenly became interested, Xie Boyuan's disciple! However, when he heard that it was related to the Xie family daughter, Emperor Liang couldn't help but frown. Liang Shengrui rarely cared about his son's back house. After all, his son would be an emperor in the future, so what kind of woman would not have that?

However, having reached this point, Liang Shengrui still wanted to say a few words, "That Xie family girl has some abilities, but you should know what Mrs. Xie thinks about the Xie family."

Liang Shengrui didn't want to say that he didn't want the Xie family's daughter to enter his son's backyard. Anyway, Xie Boyuan was not in the capital, and Xie Boyuan definitely didn't want the Xie family's daughter to enter the East Palace.

The prince understood his father's words instantly, "Father, don't worry. I'll spare you the trouble!"

Seeing that his son answered so happily, Liang Shengrui stopped continuing the topic. After a moment of silence, Emperor Liang suddenly complained: "Hmph! Xie Boyuan really cares about these two young disciples!"

The prince was inevitably a bit dissatisfied in the past few years, but in the past few years, he has also understood Taifu Xie's good intentions, and Liang Jingchen, who couldn't explain why, had an inexplicable affection for the children of the Xiao family.

At this moment, Liang Jingchen heard that his father was also complaining about Taifu Xie, but it was rare for him to take it seriously, "These two children, um... are quite rare!"

When Emperor Liang heard what the prince said, he couldn't help but look at the prince twice more and found that the prince actually spoke the truth. Emperor Liang thought that something might be going on, but he didn't know about it.

It was late at night, and Prince Liang Jingchen came out of the Qinzheng Hall after approving the memorial. The palace attendants held lanterns to guide him out. No matter how upset Liang Jingchen was inside, there was no emotion at all on his face.

Only Eunuch Xia, who usually follows him, felt that His Highness the Crown Prince seemed to be walking a little fast today. However, Eunuch Xia also quickened his pace and followed closely behind the prince.

There are people from the Forbidden Army driving a carriage waiting for the prince at the gate of the palace. The guards from the Forbidden Army will escort the prince all the way back to the palace, and will be responsible for picking up the prince for the morning court tomorrow.

The prince smiled and greeted today's commander of the imperial army, "Thank you, General Yang." Then the prince got on the carriage.

Only when he was sitting alone in the carriage, the prince slowly loosened his clenched fists, and the fingernail marks were already satisfied in his palms.

"Don't be anxious! I can't be anxious. At this time, I have to be steady!" The prince kept comforting himself in his heart.

In fact, a few years ago Emperor Liang revealed to the prince his desire for a Zen position. But at that time, the time was not yet ripe and there were still many forces, so it would be dishonest not to be willing to succumb to others.

Emperor Liang felt that the prince was still too young and was worried that the new emperor would not be able to suppress those ambitious people. And, where is the prince! Thinking that his father was testing him, he naturally never dared to express his thoughts.

It was only in the past two years that Emperor Liang had stabilized the imperial power and began to slowly delegate power to the prince. Only then did the prince become alert that his father might really want to abdicate. As a result, the prince's originally unwavering mood began to waver.

The prince is of course ambitious, and he also has a lot of ambitions that he wants to realize. However, he must be patient, he must hold his heart firmly, be the prince, and withstand the final test of his father.

The prince once secretly wondered whether his father, as the founding emperor of Daliang, would be reluctant to delegate power in the end, and whether he would want to leave behind any great achievements.

After thinking for a long time, the prince felt that maybe the newly built port would be his father's last political achievement as emperor. Once this port is built, it will definitely benefit the country and the people, and it will be remembered in history books.

Originally this was a small guess by the prince, but since he guessed Chen Shao'ang's whereabouts and had another conversation with his father tonight, the prince became more and more sure of his guess.

"Build a port! I wonder if three years is enough?" The prince secretly thought in his mind!
