The Eighth Prince got the money, immediately brought the banknotes, and found the counselor Zhang Shide who advised him, "Are you sure you can succeed?"

Zhang Shide rubbed the box containing the banknotes, touched the "hands-on" mark on it, and his smile deepened a little.

"Don't worry, my lord. Zhang is from Jinzhou, and he knows it very well. Qi Rulin is the head of the Qi family. He is the commander of the capital of Jinzhou. They suppressed Jinzhou’s chief minister and procuratorial envoy, and Jinzhou as a whole has almost become their monologue. It’s no exaggeration to say that the emperor is an emperor. If it’s just suppression, that’s all. The key point is that they also intervene in various administrative and criminal matters. For affairs, many members of the Qi family have been placed in the government."

As he said that, he sneered, "Those people are no better than Qi Rulin. They don't have much ability, but they are all greedy. There is nothing in Qizhou that they haven't scooped up. In addition, the Qi family also invaded fertile land and bullied men and women. In the past few years, many people have been killed. I know, there are three, and I don’t know, I don’t know how many there are.”

"What's the situation with these three families?" The Eighth Prince asked curiously.

Zhang Shide paused, "The family is a wealthy family in Jinzhou. His family has thousands of acres of fertile land. A member of the Qi family took a fancy to those lands and asked the rich family to sell them to him at a low price. The rich family refused. He found someone to slander the wealthy household for murder, beat the wealthy household into a trick, and then occupied the thousand acres of fertile land. The wealthy household... was beaten to death."

"The second family is ordinary people. There is a daughter in his family. She was beautiful and beautiful. Qi Rulin's youngest son saw her and insisted on snatching her back to be a concubine. The family disagreed, so he ordered the seven members of the family to be concubine. They were seriously injured, and no one was allowed to ask a doctor for treatment. In the end, the seven people died of illness."

"The third house..." At this point, he couldn't help showing a look of hatred, "It's my house!"

The Eighth Prince was surprised, "Your family?"

"Yes, my family." Zhang Shide's eyes were red and his voice was choked, "My father is a county magistrate under Jinzhou. He loves the people like a son and is honest and honest. Qi Rumu, Ren Tongzhi, hinted at my father's bribery, but my father didn't agree, so he made up excuses, saying that my father disrespected his boss and caused all kinds of trouble. To warn my father, he even sent someone to interrupt my brother's double Legs. In order to protect the family, my father had to resign, but even so, he was unwilling to let us go. On our way back home, he found someone disguised as a bandit and took us, our family..."

Speaking of this, he was sobbing.After calming down for a while, I finally said the following words, "I was lucky at the time, I was hacked, but I was not completely dead. Later, someone passed by and kindly saved me."

"Who saved you, and why did you come to me?" The eighth prince frowned. This Zhang Shide's life experience is sympathetic, but if he wants revenge, the third and fourth are better choices. How could he find him? Own?

When Zhang Shide recommended himself, he saw the talent of this person, so he didn't think much about it.Listening to it now, it feels a little strange.

Zhang Shide smiled, "The ones who saved me were Li Dashu and his son from Lijia Village, Ping'an County, Jinzhou Prefecture. I wonder if you have any impression, my lord?"

The Eighth Prince frowned. He seemed to be familiar with this place, but he couldn't remember where he heard it.

Zhang Shide didn't let him guess too much, and directly announced, "I heard that Li Xiaozhu is from the Li family village."

Only then did the eighth prince suddenly realize, "So you came to join me because of my concubine mother?"

"Yes, after knowing that I was coming to the capital, my savior, Zhao Dashu, asked me to find out about his daughter who entered the palace as a palace maid. After I came to Beijing, I spent some time thinking, and finally found out that the original benefactor's My daughter passed away a long time ago, and you, my lord, are the only blood left by her. With my ability, I can seek revenge from anyone, but you are different. You are the grandson of your benefactor, so I found you. , I hope I can hold back your strength to repay the grace of saving your life."

After the eighth prince heard this, he sighed and patted Zhang Shide on the shoulder, "Don't worry, if you help me with all your heart, I will definitely avenge you."

Zhang Shide nodded, "Thank you, my lord."

"Since what happened to the Qi family is true, what should we do now?" The eighth prince let go of his guard and began to ask about follow-up plans.

"First of all, my lord, please find more people to submit the papers, and then ask the officials of the General Administration to put these papers together to respect. These years, it is because of their domineering in Jinzhou, and because the other princes can't see it. I am used to the eldest prince, there have always been a lot of memorials in the Qi family, but they are all fragmentary charges, which cannot attract the emperor's attention at all. What we need to do now is to let many people submit the notebooks at the same time, and the number is too large , the emperor will definitely order an investigation."

The Eighth Prince hesitated, "Will this be too obvious? My power is not as good as that of my elder brother. It would be bad if he finds out about me."

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Take a look at this list. These are all officials who have been dissatisfied with the Qi family in recent years. They have been included in the book one after another. You don't need to contact them, just buy people around them, let them They blow the air, arousing dissatisfaction in their hearts. Over there, does the prince know Lord Qin?"

"Master Qin? The son-in-law of the Minister of Rites, Master Qin?"

"Yes, this Lord Qin is a 13-year-old Jinshi. When he was a Jinshi, he was less than eighteen years old. It can be said that he has a great reputation. But in recent years, he has disappeared in the court. This is all because he married the Minister of Rites. His first daughter."

"Master Qin originally had a childhood sweetheart fiancée in his hometown. The two families have already agreed that the wedding will be held after Master Qin becomes a Jinshi. Unexpectedly, he was favored by Miss Li Jiasan. At that time, Master Li was already the Minister of Rites. The eldest lady became a concubine in the palace. Under the strong pressure of the two, Mr. Qin had no choice but to marry Miss Li San. These years, the relationship between the two husband and wife has been stiff, and they still have no son or daughter. It can be seen that Mr. Qin He hates the Li family so much. He would rather have no descendants than touch Miss Li San. Master Qin is disobedient, and the Li family naturally suppresses him. So for so many years, Master Qin's colleagues have all held high positions in the same department. He is the only one who is still a rank-[-] official."

The eighth prince understood, "So this Master Qin is a useful person. In order to bring down the Li family, he will definitely help us. Outsiders don't know that he and the Li family are at odds, and they will definitely think that all this was instigated by the second prince. The Li family is the second prince's natal family."

"Yes, so you can do it with confidence, my lord. You will never be found out." Zhang Shide nodded.

"There is no news about Mr. Qin in the capital, how did you know?" The Eighth Prince was curious, this matter was kept a secret, Zhang Shide has not been in the capital for long, has he?

"He and my elder brother are classmates," Zhang Shide didn't say much, only hinted a little.

The Eighth Prince thought he knew the truth, so he didn't ask any further questions, just nodded, and hurriedly asked someone to arrange it.

Not long after he left, an unremarkable servant beside Zhang Shide left the Eighth Prince's Mansion.

An hour later, Anxi received the news: The Eighth Prince has moved!

Anxi recruited people from Anbu, "Are the emperor's people staring at the eighth prince?"

An Yi knelt on the ground, buried his face deeply in the shadow, "Master, since yesterday, many people in the Eighth Prince's Mansion have been secretly watching the Eighth Prince, including when he goes out and enters the palace, there are always people following him."

Anxi smiled, "Look at it, and then dig out everyone. I want the forces in the capital to escape your eyes!"

"Yes!" While answering, the figure disappeared in front of Anxi.

Of course, with Anxi's martial arts, it is natural to see his action trajectory, but there are also people who can't see it.

Li Yunqian was amazed, "I'm going, how did this happen? It disappeared all at once. It's the principle of light refraction, and there are blind spots in dynamic motion?"

"Neither, if you are interested, I can teach you." Anxi joked with a smile.

Li Yunqian shook her head quickly, "It's better to say goodbye, you have to stride and run again, it's not suitable for a young and beautiful girl like me."

"Then beautiful girl, have you finished your steam experiment? When do you plan to implement the steam spinning machine?" Anxi asked back.

Li Yunqian was at a loss for words for a while, "Can you blame me? The rubber you bought is substandard. The previous varieties are not good, and better varieties are still needed."

In order to prevent Anxi from continuing to ask, she quickly changed the subject, "Can you let the emperor know the truth? He won't stop it, is this to let the first prince and the second prince fight each other?"

Anxi smiled, "It's because you don't understand the royal family and the emperor. They may have family affection in their hearts, but they are definitely not as powerful as their own. Emperor Xingde is a typical example. He is suspicious and loves power more than anything. As early as Five years ago, after he realized that his sons were powerful, he kept secretly suppressing them. It's just that he was trying to save face and didn't show it, otherwise he wouldn't favor me these few years."

"I'm not someone who covets his throne. He did this to show his kindness. In this way, if the princes' power suffers any loss, they will not suspect him. They only think that other princes did it. Now He can only be happy for the Eighth Prince to do this, and maybe he will push it secretly."

Li Yunqian shook her head, "Black, really black, you political people have dirty hearts."

Anxi narrowed her eyes dangerously, "Little girl, I have a dark heart? I think I'm too kind to you, and I owe you a lesson, right?"

Li Yunqian paused, the animal's intuition came to the fore, and she quickly hugged Anxi's arm and shook it, "Don't, don't, lord, I was wrong, you are a very good person, I have never seen a man who is better than you, I can marry you It's really lucky for three lives."

"You don't have to put a high hat on me, tell me, do you need me?" Anxi didn't know this girl well, and normally, she ran away after being so intimidated by him, and now she is still acting like a baby to herself, there must be something wrong.

Li Yunqian chuckled, and while Anxi wasn't paying attention, she hugged Anxi's waist, "Let's have a baby!"
