After Qu Jiyuan entered the prince's study and saw the ceremony, the prince asked him what he could do for him.

Qu Jiyuan handed some things to the crown prince, which contained Li Yuanxiu's achievements in the past few years, which were all erased in the capital, and some people's recognition of Li Yuanxiu, including the IOUs written by borrowing food and so on.

After reading everything, the prince sighed: "Sure enough, someone is targeting him."

The prince put the things away, but he didn't intend to return them to Qu Jiyuan, and Qu Jiyuan didn't want to take them back either. If the prince accepted it, it meant he would help.

"Back when Li Yuanxiu passed the top three exams, someone made a hindrance. His father knew that someone was fighting against him, so he sent him out to protect his life. Originally, there was no news about him in the past three years. Now you are running for him, but he knows What's the matter?"

Qu Jiyuan replied yes.

The prince sat down and sighed: "It seems that there will be another bloodbath. Since you came to me, he must have made a decision."

"Returning to Your Highness, the capital is undercurrents, but it is peaceful on the surface. The prince should know that it doesn't make much difference to you whether you want to fight or not. Even if you don't want to fight anymore, your seat is doomed to the way you want to go. His Majesty sent you out." To put it bluntly, people are all for the prince, Li Yuanxiu is just one step ahead."

The prince smiled: "You can think clearly, Li Yuanxiu is also willing?"

"Naturally, there is no doubt about the prince's character."

"What do you want Gu to do?"

"There have always been people who don't want Li Yuanxiu to come back. His superior Xue Cishi has already returned to the capital, and he should report the situation under his rule in the near future. Jiyuan only asks His Highness to say a word or two for Li Yuanxiu at that time."

"It's not difficult. Father's plan is just as you said, and it's Li Yuanxiu. If I speak for him, no one will say anything."

The prince pondered for a while and said: "Tomorrow I will enter the palace. The queen mother will never forget Mrs. Li."

Qu Jiyuan bowed and thanked again, and then left the Prince's Mansion.

After he left, the prince rummaged through the things in his hands and sat for a long time. When the princess came, it was already dark, and the prince's study room was not lit. The prince pursed his lips and asked someone to light the lamp. The snacks were placed on the stage, and the prince finally woke up.

The concubine walked up behind the prince and squeezed his shoulders for him. After a long time, the prince patted her hand and pulled him towards him.

"Your Highness, let's have something to eat."

"Ah."

"My condolences to Your Highness, it's been so long, don't worry about it anymore, it's a good thing that Li Yuanxiu has Qu Jiyuan by his side now, I can see that Qu Jiyuan really has a deep affection for him, otherwise no one would be able to I will run around for Li Yuanxiu."

"I know, I just..."

The princess stepped forward and hugged the prince, patted him gently: "I know."

Sometimes the princess thinks dejectedly, why she falls in love with the prince when she can live freely.

In the final analysis, she fell in love with the prince because of Li Yuanhe.

She only sneaked out of the city occasionally and saw the prince at the place where the Li family died. Speaking of which, that place is not far from the capital. What she saw at that time was the sad prince standing on the side of the road in a daze. Later she knew Li Yuanhe Because of the relationship with the prince, she was overwhelmed by the prince's affection. The prince would go to that place every year, and he never went there again until he married her as an adult.

At first it was to search for clues, and later it was to mourn.

Then it was buried deep in my heart.

She knew that the prince loved her. The prince had nostalgia for the dead Li Yuanhe, but that was no longer love. He just couldn't let it go. The tragedy of the Li family was a thorn in the prince's heart.

Now due to the appearance of Qu Jiyuan, the thorn was picked out again, and it was deeply rooted in the prince's heart. If he did not heal, the thorn would never disappear. The princess knew that the prince would help Qu Jiyuan. If he will help Li Yuanxiu, then it won't be too long before this thorn is pulled out by the roots.

The prince really went to the palace to meet the queen on the second day. He just skillfully mentioned that one of the places that suffered from floods every year is being managed very well, and then mentioned Li Yuanxiu. The queen was in a daze for a long time when she heard the name.

She glanced at her son, the emperor had already planned to abdicate, the prince had always been unwilling to fight, but just followed the steps to be a competent prince, now he actually took the initiative to mention Li Yuanxiu, which made the queen really happy.

Qu Jiyuan stood on the Juxiang Building and looked towards the direction of the imperial palace. He went to see Governor Xue last night and handed some things to Mr. Xue.

Governor Xue is very grateful to Qu Jiyuan for the fact that Xue Zhuo returned home honestly and became a good son. He is a smart man. Of course, I understand the meaning of it.

Li Yuanxiu is a good official, and he always gives a lot of praise when he submits the report every year, but there is no splash every year. Although raising this matter at the court will cause some people's dissatisfaction, but he is just telling the truth. For some things, he just knows Just pretend not to know.

The weather was fine that day, the sun was warm, and Qu Jiyuan felt very comfortable. He murmured: "It's already spring."

The incident in the court was told to Governor Xue when he met again. Some people refuted that even Li Yuanxiu's borrowing of food was said to be exploitation and corruption.

Governor Xue originally thought that he was fighting alone, but he didn't know that the prince would also interfere. In fact, few people knew about the past between the prince and Li Yuanhe, and those who knew were naturally the queen's own people, so they didn't spread it at all, so It was unexpected that the prince would make a move.

The crown prince only said that what he heard was the same as what Governor Xue said, and that Governor Xue was Li Yuanxiu's top striker, so he knew the most clearly, but how could the adults in Beijing guarantee that what they heard was true?

The emperor was very happy that the prince took the initiative to intervene in the affairs of the court. He often heard the queen mention Li Yuanxiu these days, and often heard her miss the past, so he naturally had a good impression of Li Yuanxiu.

There was endless debate in the court, and those who opposed Li Yuanxiu's return to Beijing seized him to make a big fuss about borrowing grain from wealthy businessmen. At a critical moment, Governor Xue took out some IOUs with Li Yuanxiu's seal. He explained to the emperor that these IOUs were originally written by Li Yuanxiu It was for the rich merchants and country gentry who donated food, but later these people returned the IOUs to Li Yuanxiu, and the borrowed food became food donated to the court.

The emperor looked at it and nodded again and again. However, even with these evidences, Li Yuanxiu was the top three back then, but he had already been sent to the grassroots. It would not be so easy to transfer back to the capital now, not to mention that there were still people who didn't want him to come back. The emperor asked Mr. Jiang, and everyone knew that Li Yuanxiu was raised by Mr. Jiang.

Probably no one expected that this good uncle of Li Yuanxiu only said one sentence: "Yuanxiu is still young, so he should practice more."

After Mr. Jiang said this, he regretted it. Not only Xue Shishi, the prince and others looked at him, but even the emperor looked at him with an unclear expression.

He shouldn't have said this, he was really afraid that the emperor would directly agree to transfer Li Yuanxiu back to the capital, so he blurted it out, but he forgot that although Li Yuanxiu called him his uncle, he was actually not, even if he was a new uncle, he shouldn't Say something like this at this time.

Li Yuanxiu stayed alone in a small county far away from the capital city for three years. If someone proposed to let him return to Beijing, even if he couldn't express how happy he was, he shouldn't stop him.

The most important thing is, whether the emperor wants Li Yuanxiu to come back will not change at all because of his words.

Mr. Jiang knew that it was too late to regret it at this time, so he could only bite the bullet and say: "That kid from Yuanxiu has been serious since he was a child, and he wants to do his best in everything. His good job as a county magistrate also shows this point. But he has too little experience, I am afraid that he will not be able to do some things when he comes to the capital."

After Mr. Jiang finished speaking, those who didn't want Li Yuanxiu to return to the capital naturally praised the surname Jiang. However, this matter did not come to fruition in the end, because the emperor never made a statement.

Soon those who didn't want Li Yuanxiu to return to the capital had no time to take care of Li Yuanxiu. Although the news of Li Yuanxiu's transfer spread, he was not the only one who was transferred back to the capital, but a dozen people.

Anyone who is interested in the emperor's action knows what is going on. The capital will undergo major changes. Who has the time to manage a small county magistrate who can't make waves?So what if you go back to Beijing, you still have to climb up step by step.

Mr. Jiang was not reconciled, because Li Yuanxiu returned to Beijing, it would be impossible for him to do anything else, he knew without thinking that Li Yuanxiu would never throw himself into his arms.

Mr. Jiang felt bored, so he invited some friends to go to Juxiang Tower. Qu Jiyuan didn't understand Mr. Jiang's habit of coming to his door to deliver news.

After listening to the system's explanation, I realized that Mr. Jiang had sent someone to watch him for a whole year, and he knew that Juxiang Tower was opened by him, but he and Li Yuanxiu had been separated for two years. Come back soon, he has already determined that the relationship between Qu Jiyuan and Li Yuanxiu has broken down, so naturally he didn't get distracted from Qu Jiyuan.

Qu Jiyuan sneered, how could this kind of idiot live so long and so well, God really didn't open his eyes.

The system said slowly: "If he wasn't an idiot, he probably would have found someone to silence you a long time ago, and he can still send you news?"

Mr. Jiang is very bored, and the other people are not much better, but they are not the same as Mr. Jiang. To put it bluntly, Mr. Jiang is actually an official with no real power, so he doesn't care too much about the undercurrents in the court, while others The conversation of several people revealed to Qu Jiyuan that someone wanted to deal with the prince, and this person should be the mastermind of the Li family case back then.

Some people are like this, they think twice when they have one thing, they use greed as their motivation to make progress, and climb to the top step by step.
