The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy

Seeing the door being knocked open, Zhai Chengwen's face suddenly darkened. He stood up suddenly and looked coldly at Lai Fuyuan who was standing at the door.

Lai Fuyuan is a notorious playboy in the capital. He has been at odds with Zhai Chengwen since childhood. Whenever Zhai Chengwen wants something, Lai Fuyuan will intervene and use tricks to snatch it away.

Over time, Zhai Chengwen and Lai Fuyuan became enemies.

Previously, Madam Zhai had taken a fancy to a girl with good character and wanted to ask Zhai Chengwen to marry her, but Lai Fuyuan found out about it and took the initiative to marry the girl.

Later, when Madam Zhai heard about this, she was so angry that she couldn't sleep or eat for several days and said bluntly that she was the one who harmed the girl.

Zhai Chengwen did not expect things to turn out like this. Lai Fuyuan was really too bullying. Zhai Chengwen immediately found someone overnight and beat Lai Fuyuan severely, beating him so hard that he could not get out of bed for a month.

Afterwards, Zhai Chengwen secretly sent someone to contact the unfortunate girl, and learned that she was unwilling to stay with Lai Fuyuan. He then thought of another way to rescue her and send her away from Shengjing.

Even if Lai Fuyuan guessed that it was Zhai Chengwen who did it afterwards, he had no evidence to accuse Zhai Chengwen. What's more, Zhai Chengwen already had an official position at that time and was an official appointed by the court.

No matter how unwilling Lai Fuyuan was, he had to swallow his anger.

However, Lai Fuyuan still sent people to keep an eye on Zhai Chengwen day and night, always thinking of creating some trouble for him to disgust him.

A quarter of an hour ago, Lai Fuyuan received a message from the servant saying that Zhai Chengwen was hosting a banquet in Zui Xiang Lou, and that there was a beautiful girl among the guests. Perhaps Zhai Chengwen was thinking of getting married again.

Zhai Chengwen wants to marry a wife? He doesn't agree!

Lai Fuyuan gritted his teeth, stopped fighting even with the crickets, and quickly brought a few of his cronies to Zui Xiang Lou to cause trouble!

"Oh, isn't this the second son of the Zhai family who became a high-ranking official?"

Seeing Zhai Chengwen staring at him coldly, Lai Fuyuan was not afraid at all, but a little excited. The angrier Zhai Chengwen was, the more it proved that he cared about the girl inside!

His wife was taken away by Zhai Chengwen, making him a cuckold, so Zhai Chengwen can forget about getting married again!

Thinking of this, Lai Fuyuan's expression became more arrogant. He raised his chin, his eyes almost growing to the top of his head, "What? You stole my place, and you still dare to stare at me like this?"

Zhai Chengwen snorted coldly.

If he wasn't afraid of scaring the Crown Prince of Fan and the Seventh Princess of Fan, he would have kicked Lai Fuyuan out before he even opened his mouth!

Unfortunately, the Crown Prince of Fan and the Seventh Princess of Fan were still there, so he had to restrain himself, lest the two distinguished guests think that the ministers of Li behaved in a barbaric manner.

"Lai Fuyuan, you don't have to make trouble here. I already booked this private room yesterday. There is a document to prove it, and there is also the seal of the owner of Zui Xiang Lou on it."

Zhai Chengwen took out a document from his sleeve and waved it in front of Lai Fuyuan calmly, "If you don't know the words on it, I can read it to you."

Lai Fuyuan: ???

No, Zhai Chengwen must be sick! How could anyone have thought that they had to sign a document before booking a private room in Zui Xiang Lou?

After just a glance, Lai Fuyuan's face changed slightly and he cursed in his heart. He didn't expect that Zhai Chengwen came prepared!

As a result, he had no way to act recklessly!

Lai Fuyuan was so angry that he kicked the boy who passed the message to him and said with gritted teeth: "Didn't you agree to book this private room for me? You are useless! You can't even do such a thing!"

The servant was kicked and hurt but didn't dare to resist. He knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "Master, spare me. I know I was wrong! I am a loser. I can't even do such a small thing!"

Lai Fuyuan felt even more upset after hearing this, and immediately kicked him again, "Get out!"

The servant fell to the ground in a mess.

The group of idiot friends following behind Lai Fuyuan didn't dare to say a word, but they were thinking of finding an opportunity to teach Zhai Chengwen a lesson to vent Lai's anger!

Zhai Chengwen: "If Mr. Lai wants to scold us, go somewhere else and don't disturb us while we are eating, waiter!"

The waiter who was watching the fun nearby quickly came over and said, "Master Zhai, what can I do for you?"

Originally, when the waiter saw someone making trouble, he wanted to come over to help, but when he arrived, he found that Master Zhai was already prepared, and he was useless and couldn't say a word, so he could only stay aside to join in the fun.

Zhai Chengwen: "Hurry up and straighten the door, and then ask the irrelevant people outside to leave."

"Yes Yes Yes."

The waiter responded in a repetitive voice, completely ignoring the gloomy-faced young master of the Lai family standing nearby. He quickly stepped forward, quickly straightened the door panel that had been knocked crooked, and then closed the door considerately.

The farce ended here.

Lai Fuyuan came with high hopes but left disappointed.

Xie Xi didn't take it seriously at all. Instead, the Prince of Fan asked, "Who were those people just now?"

After saying this, Xie Xi also raised his eyes and looked at Zhai Chengwen.

The Seventh Princess of Fan State was immersed in the food. While her brother the Crown Prince was not paying attention, she quickly poured herself a cup of peach blossom wine. She secretly glanced at her brother the Crown Prince before drinking it all in one gulp.

"...The Lai family is in the grain business. Most of the grain stores in Shengjing City are owned by the Lai family."

"As for the group of young masters following Lai Fuyuan just now, they all have business dealings with the Lai family."

In front of the Prince of Fan State, Zhai Chengwen did not explain in detail, but only mentioned it briefly.

Prince Fan nodded in understanding, but did not continue to ask about the matter.

Xie Xi pursed his lips thoughtfully. Perhaps, he could send someone to check the Lai family's background.

……

On the other side, the Fourth Prince’s Mansion.

"Master, the Princess of Yan is here."

Guard Wen Kang knocked on the study door and whispered.

Xie Jin, who was buried in the desk reading a secret letter, suddenly raised his head. He frowned and looked worried: "Why is she here at this time? If my father knew about this, I'm afraid I will be punished again!"

After the morning court session today, he was called to the imperial study by his father, who reminded him not to have any other thoughts, and not to get too close to any princess or prince from another country.

At that time, Xie Jin's heart tightened, thinking that his father must have known something, so he called him over and warned him. But it turned out that it was because his father heard a rumor that the eldest princess of Yan State had taken a fancy to him?

It's simply outrageous!

I don’t know where these rumors came from, but they actually dared to fabricate a conspiracy between him and the Princess of Yan!

The person behind the scenes is despicable. He clearly wants the emperor to focus his attention on him and the Princess of Yan!

But now the Princess of Yan State came to the Fourth Prince's residence in person...

Wen Kang didn't know what his master was thinking, so he asked, "Master, do you want to let the Princess of Yan enter the palace?"

Now that they are here, can we send them back?

What's more, he has a cooperation with the Princess of Yan State, so he can't offend her.

Xie Jin: "Let her in."

"Yes."

Wen Kang turned and left.

In a short while, Wen Kang came back, and following behind him was the Princess of Yan, who was wrapped tightly in a cloak.

In addition, the Princess of Yan was wearing a veil, so no one could see her appearance.

After bringing in the Princess of Yan, Wen Kang stepped out and stood guard at the door, then closed the door.

Xie Jin: "Princess Yan, please take a seat."

Yan Ji took off the veil on her head and placed it on the table beside her. With a cold face, she raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Xie Jin who was sitting at the table: "The Fourth Prince has been living a carefree life in the mansion these days, but I am the only one who has to worry about the previous cooperation."

Hearing this, Xie Jin was surprised and stood up suddenly, "What does Princess Yan mean?"

Yan Ji snorted coldly, "When the Japanese palace was discussing with your people in Zui Xiang Lou, I'm afraid someone had heard it. That person also saw me coming out of Zui Xiang Lou with his own eyes."

"What!?"

Xie Jin was shocked: "Who saw it?"

Yan Ji: "It's Lu Xiaoxiao who is beside your brother, the Crown Prince."

Speaking of Lu Xiaoxiao, Yan Ji instantly recalled the humiliation she suffered at the Ningguo Mansion!

She was present at the time, and she tried many times to kill Xie Xi's woman but failed. She finally caught him, but he was soon rescued. Her secret agent in Beijing was also removed, and Yanzi Cloth Shop was forced to close!

What was even more outrageous was that Xie Xi actually sent people to dump the dead thugs and the people from Yan Zi Cloth Shop into the house where she lived. This even alarmed the people around and attracted the runners from the government office in the capital to come and investigate the matter!

Xie Xi deserves to die!

If Xie Xi really becomes the emperor of Li one day, I am afraid that Xie Xi will soon try to attack Yan State. For the sake of Yan State, the future emperor of Li State can only be Xie Jin, the fourth prince of Li State!

Thinking of this, Yan Ji lowered her eyes, took out the envelope hidden in her sleeve, and held it in her hand.

"Lu Xiaoxiao?"

Xie Jin's face changed drastically. He knew that Lu Xiaoxiao had always been highly valued by the Second Emperor. If she told the Second Emperor about this, he would definitely go to the palace to inform his father. At that time...

No, my second brother and father must not know about this!

Xie Jin's eyes darkened, and his tone became cold: "I wonder how Princess Yan Chang plans to deal with that Lu Xiaoxiao?"

"Of course I wish I could chop her into pieces!"

Yan Ji said coldly.

Anyone who dares to show off in front of her should have died long ago!

Unfortunately, Lu Xiaoxiao was overprotected, and her people never had the chance to attack her.

Yan Ji: "Fourth Prince, if I leave this matter to you, can you help me vent my anger?"

"nature."

Xie Jin agreed without hesitation: "That Lu Xiaoxiao is just a concubine. No matter how much Second Brother values ​​her, he can't stay by her side all the time. As long as Second Brother is not around, my people can kill her!"

"very good."

Yan Ji nodded in satisfaction, "I want to see Lu Xiaoxiao's body before tomorrow."

Xie Jin: "This prince will definitely do what you wish."

"Since the Fourth Prince is so understanding, I will not hide it anymore."

As she spoke, Yan Ji handed the letter in her hand to Xie Jin, "This is a letter sent by my brother, for you."

Xie Jin received the letter so quickly, and he knew that the matter was safe!

Xie Jin couldn't help but smile. After waiting for so many days, he finally got some good news.

Yan Ji: "Open it and take a look."

Xie Jin picked up the letter, opened it, took out the stationery inside, temporarily suppressed the excitement in his heart, and quickly read the letter.

This letter was indeed written by the Emperor of Yan himself.

In order to cooperate with the fourth prince of Li State in rebellion and gain the greatest benefits, the Emperor of Yan State did not leave the matter to his subordinates, but wrote a letter himself and sent someone to deliver it quickly to his own sister.

However, the Emperor of Yan proposed in the letter that he wanted not only the cities of Li, but also the grain of Li. Once Xie Jin became the emperor of Li, he would have to provide 200,000 dan of grain to Yan in the next three years. If Xie Jin could agree to this condition, Yan would send 200,000 elite soldiers to help him achieve his great cause.

After reading the letter, Xie Jin's face looked unhappy. "Two hundred thousand dan of grain for three consecutive years?"

If he really wanted to raise an army to rebel and seize the throne, he would not be able to take the position smoothly in one day. Once the war started, he would also need food, and it was not known how much food he would consume...

Seeing the reluctance of the Fourth Prince of Li, Yan Ji's face turned cold, "Why? You don't want to give it?"

"Aren't the 200,000 elite soldiers of Yan State worth these two conditions?"

"This was proposed by my brother. If the Fourth Prince is unwilling to accept it, then this matter will be left alone for now."

Xie Jin endured it, and after thinking about it, he finally agreed.

Yan Ji was satisfied and continued, "My brother is already arranging the 200,000 elite soldiers to approach the border of Li State, and is just waiting for the Fourth Prince's instructions."

"Not urgent."

Xie Jin said: "This prince must carefully choose an auspicious day."

Yan Ji: "Then I wish you, the Fourth Prince, great success in your career in the near future."

Xie Jin: "Thank you for your good words."

After the discussion, Yan Ji did not stay in the Fourth Prince's mansion for long. After putting on a veil, she left quietly through the side door of the mansion.

However, she did not notice that when her back disappeared from Xie Jin's sight, Xie Jin stood there silently, with a sinister look flashing in his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.

After a long while, Xie Jin let Wen Kang in and said in a deep voice, "You go to the Lu family. I wonder if the things that this prince asked them to do before have been done."

From the beginning, Xie Jin had been wondering if there would be a chance to pull Xie Xi down from that position by starting with the Lu family...

Wen Kang was originally in charge of this matter. After hearing his master's order, Wen Kang bowed his head and said, "Master, rest assured. I will go over and see how they are doing."

Xie Jin nodded: "Go ahead, make sure they bring Lu Xiaoxiao back to the Lu family as soon as possible!"

Wenkang took the order and left.

……

In the Prince's Mansion, Lu Xiaoxiao, who was planning to sew an undergarment for His Highness, suddenly sneezed several times.

She couldn't help but free her hands to rub her nose, feeling a little puzzled: "Strange, who is talking about me? Could it be those people from the Lu family?"
