Chapter 30 The Imperial Court Situation

"Yixin, what happened after you were expelled from the capital?" Cheng Hao spoke slowly after taking a sip of tea.He knew about Zhao Yixin's exile.

"The last time the queen framed me for pushing her into the water, my father listened to the slander and expelled me from the capital to Liangzhou. They only sent two guards to escort me, so instead of following the original route to Liangzhou, I changed the route. When I passed the border of Cangzhou, I met Shenyang Qing, so I stayed here." Zhao Yixin said.

"Well, I once said that your temperament is not suitable for the court, and being expelled from the capital is a blessing in disguise." Cheng Hao has a thorough understanding of Zhao Yishen, and it is a blessing that Zhao Yishen can stay away from the court.

"What the master said is true." Zhao Yixin had a deep understanding, he was very aware of his own weaknesses.

"Master, do you know how the current court situation is?" Even though he was far away from the palace, Zhao Yishen still wanted to know what was going on in the capital.

"It can be said that the imperial court is in chaos now. Not long after you left, Emperor Yufeng suddenly fell ill, so all the previous infighting and infighting came to the fore." Although Cheng Hao is far away from the capital, his connections are still there. He talks to the capital from time to time. Correspondence with many people, coupled with his keen judgment on politics, he can be said to know the affairs of the capital like the back of his hand.

"Brother, how is he?" Zhao Yixin was very concerned about the prince's situation.Although the queen didn't like him, the prince was really kind to him.If it wasn't for the queen, he and the prince could be good brothers.

"The prince is very good, you don't have to worry about him." After teaching Zhao Yishen for ten years, Cheng Hao naturally knew that the prince and Zhao Yishen had a close relationship.

"Now the imperial court is divided into three factions. One faction is headed by the queen, the other is headed by the third prince, and the third is the prince. There are other princes who form their own faction, but they are just small troubles and cannot make a difference." Cheng Hao analyzed the current court situation to Zhao Yishen.

"Isn't the empress on the same side as the prince?" Zhao Yixin was confused. Could it be that the empress and the prince's mother and son are still separated?

"Well, it's not a matter of a day or two for the empress to be ambitious. She is the second person who claims to be Empress Wu. On the surface, she and the prince are both prosperous, and the other is damaged. But after taking power, the prince can only be a puppet emperor. The prince also knows this, so he secretly cultivated his own power to compete with the queen."

"I didn't expect the queen to be so ambitious." Zhao Yixin once again refreshed his understanding of the queen.He was thankful again that he had escaped from the court struggle in time, otherwise he would be eaten to the bone now.

"I am quite optimistic about the prince." Cheng Hao said leisurely, "The prince is resolute and alert, the city is deep, and he is careful at every step. Coupled with the help of Taifu Chu, the prince is now like a tiger with wings."

"Teacher Chu? The eldest brother actually won him!" Apart from Cheng Hao, there is another influential figure in the capital, and that is Chu Ningyuan.Unlike Cheng Hao's civilian background, Chu Ningyuan's father was the prime minister, so Chu Ningyuan was born with a golden spoon in his mouth.Chu Ningyuan is extremely talented, and has the bel canto of a child prodigy since he was a child.Moreover, Chu Ningyuan is handsome and handsome, which makes him the object of admiration by the ladies of the rich families in the capital.

Chu Ningyuan is proficient in poetry and prose theory, and is known as "Little Zhuge". It is not an exaggeration for Cheng Hao to say that he is even more powerful with the help of Chu Ningyuan.

"Well, I don't know what method the prince used to get Taifu Chu to join him." Cheng Hao sighed, although Chu Ningyuan is talented, he has always been wise and safe, and will not participate in the battle between the princes.

"In this way, I can feel at ease." Knowing that the prince is in good condition, Zhao Yixin was relieved.

"It's hard to say that the situation in the court is changing a lot, but the crown prince has the advantage. As long as he doesn't take it lightly, the chance of successfully ascending to the throne is still very high." Cheng Hao said.

"I hope." Zhao Yixin hoped that the crown prince could gain power, which would also be beneficial to him. "By the way, master, what action will the palace take after I disappear?"

"Are you missing?" Cheng Hao couldn't help laughing, "Why did I hear that the Ninth Prince got sick and died on the way to Liangzhou, which made me feel sad for you for a while."

"Death from disease? Who said that?" Zhao Yixin was puzzled.

"This matter has been confirmed by the queen. I guess someone helped you to fake the aftermath. Otherwise, with the queen's temper, how could she let you go so easily." Cheng Hao quickly guessed the twists and turns.

"That's fine, anyway, I'm no longer the Ninth Prince, and now I'm just a commoner." Zhao Yixin is very satisfied with his current situation and doesn't have to worry about any threats.

"You are so lucky to be able to escape unscathed." Cheng Hao laughed.

After finishing their business, the two talked about other things.

"Where do you live now?" Cheng Hao asked.He still doesn't understand Zhao Yixin's current situation.

"I'm living in Yunyin Mountain now." Zhao Yixin replied.

"Isn't there a Yunyin village in Yunyin Mountain? That's a den of bandits. How did you get there?" Cheng Hao knew something about Yunyin Mountain, and he was a little worried about Zhao Yishen.

"Master, to tell you the truth, I live in Yunyin Village." Zhao Yixin said, "The people in the village are very kind to me, and we are no longer bandits."

"The one next to you, too?" Cheng Hao glanced at Shen Yangqing who was beside Zhao Yixin.

"He is the owner of Yunyin Village." Zhao Yixin replied.

"It looks okay." Cheng Hao looked at Shen Yangqing like a father-in-law looks at a son-in-law.

"Oh, that's all, you can figure it out. If you are wronged, just come to me." Cheng Hao knows that children will not be kept, and children and grandchildren have their own blessings, so it is better to let them.

"I won't let Yi Xin be wronged!" Shen Yang, who was silent at the side, opened his mouth.From the moment he sat down, he couldn't quite understand the conversation between the two of them.Originally, Shen Yangqing was a little depressed because of this, but now it is tempting to question his sincerity towards Zhao Yixin, which is unbearable.

"Hahaha..." As an attacker, Cheng Hao naturally knew Shen Yangqing's feelings, and he had an intuition that it was right for Zhao Yixin to choose to be with Shenyang Qing.

"Master, why are you here?" Zhao Yixin was also very curious about Cheng Hao's experience.The master once said that he wants to travel around the world, but now he has a family here.

"It's a long story." Cheng Hao said, "After leaving the palace, I planned to visit the Western Regions, but when I passed by this little guy stole my heart, so I started a family here."
