Chapter 694 The benefits are great

Meeting tomorrow.

Chu Jingxian was now ordered to go to court whenever there was a court meeting.

Although he did not speak or stand out in court, standing there showed that he had the emperor's approval and was a prince who could go to court and participate in political affairs.

The envoys of the Western Tang Dynasty are about to arrive in Beijing. After arriving in the capital, reception is the top priority.

In the early years, the Western Tang invaded the border, and the fifth prince of the Eastern Xia, Chu Xinyuan, went on an expedition and defeated the Western Tang. The two countries signed a treaty of non-aggression and agreed to send envoys to each other every two to three years to share their interests.

.

As a defeated country, the Western Tang Dynasty naturally sent envoys to Eastern Xia first.

This time the envoy of the Western Tang Dynasty was said to be a prince.

Of course, this is not important. What is important is that since the Western Tang Dynasty sent envoys, there must be people on the East Xia side who are responsible for receiving the envoys.

Those who came to the Western Tang Dynasty were princes, and those who were received by the Eastern Xia Dynasty would also be princes.

The eldest prince was determined to receive this reception.

The fourth prince also looked covetously at this receptionist.

This is the credit of delivering it to the door. As long as the reception work is completed beautifully, this may be their most powerful bargaining chip.

After all, the emperor had revealed his intention to establish a heir apparent a few days ago, but he was undecided among his several sons.

Both the eldest prince and the four princes began to exert their strength. At this time, a credit must be won!

Chu Jingxian said: "The chess pieces naturally have to play their role!" Isn't that why the man forced him to enter the court?

Ming Qinxue raised her glass and said with a smile: "Then I wish your highness a great victory!"

Chu Jingxian's eyes were deep. When he didn't join the game, someone forced him to join the game!

Now that he's in the game, he has the final say on which path he should take!

Ming Qinxue stood up, took out a scroll from the side, spread it out on the table on the side, and said: "Your Highness, please move!"

Chu Jingxian walked over and saw the paintings on the scroll, his eyes moved.

This is not a landscape, nor is it calligraphy and painting, but it is an intricate diagram of relationships between characters.

There are no less than a hundred people involved, and the whole scroll is densely packed.

Ming Qinxue said: "The approximate relatives and friends of officials of the third rank and above in the court are all listed above. I can't guarantee that everything listed is complete, but I can guarantee that everything listed above is true! Your Highness, this is my

Give you the gift of victory!"

Chu Jingxian looked at Ming Qinxue with admiration in his eyes, and said, "Thank you very much! Are you so ingenious that you can even think of listing such a clear picture?"

Ming Qinxue smiled and said: "I made the picture, but the inspiration for this picture came from Miss Mu!"

Hearing the words Miss Mu, Chu Jingxian's eyes softened involuntarily, and he said in a gentle tone that he didn't even notice: "Why does this matter have anything to do with her?"

Ming Qinxue's eyes moved, and she said with a smile: "When I was doing business with Miss Mu, she used this type of diagram to communicate with me. I think this type of diagram is very practical and can be used for other purposes, so I asked her for advice.

She taught me the use of this picture in detail, and I just borrowed it for today!"

Chu Jingxian said: "She is smart and transparent, and she always has wonderful ideas in her mind!" He also said: "Miss Ming can understand things by analogy, learn and apply them flexibly, and she is also a person with a clear heart and wisdom!"

Ming Qinxue laughed: "Your Highness, there is no need to praise so reluctantly, I know I am not as good as Miss Mu!"

"You each have your own strengths, why bother comparing!"

Ming Qinxue smiled, and this time her smile was much more real. Her eyes were shining with confidence, and she said: "Miss Mu is determined to be in the shopping mall, and she will make great achievements in the future. And I like the court affairs, even if I can't be a court official in the future.

A female officer, but she also wants to be the first female counselor!"

Chu Jingxian had long known that she was different from other women in the boudoir. Her background gave her an extraordinary vision, her talent and learning made her think well, her intelligence made her behavior unique, and her vision made her act alone!

Not to mention anything else, there are women in the boudoir who have been the most popular figures in the capital in the past dynasties. How many of them can single-handedly save their father and brother from the whirlpool of the prince's struggle for throne and power?

That's right, it's time to get away.

At that time, Ming Chongjun regarded Chu Chengye as the eldest son of all the princes, and he would establish the eldest son if he had no heir. Since he felt that Chu Yuncheng was a false heir, he thought that Chu Chengye, who had the reputation of a virtuous king and treated virtuous corporals, should be more

Become a prince.

At that time, both the emperor and the court officials thought that Ming Chongjun was already part of the eldest prince's party.

If Ming Qinxue had married at that time, the Ming family and the eldest prince would have become an inseparable whole.

If it were an ordinary boudoir woman, would she have the courage to make such a decision? And would it be possible to change such an outcome?

She was able to escape from the whirlpool just because she broke off the engagement in public and asked to leave the clan.

If the prince was smart enough, even if she broke off the engagement and left the family, it would not help, but she dared to bet that she could see how the prince would react!

She won the bet!

The two chatted for a long time, drank three pots of tea, exchanged the information that should be exchanged, and expressed their different opinions on one thing. Ming Qinxue's eyes became brighter and brighter.

Very well, although the King of Chu has not been in the capital for a year, he is not unfamiliar with the situation in the capital. These are not all what she conveyed in her letter, but some of them should be his own arrangements when he left the capital.

The person she chose is not mediocre.

Although this result may not be good, after all, a lord with ideas will not listen to his advisers in everything, and there may even be disagreements.

But Ming Qinxue is very happy, what she is looking for is not a puppet.

This is a secret room, with the smell of underground dampness and earth, which is eerie and terrifying. The secret room is not a place for discussing important matters, but a place where a person is locked up.

The man's whole body was chained, his hair was disheveled, his beard was long, he looked haggard, and he was quite young.

A man whipped his whip, making a loud and clear sound. The old man's clothes were torn in response, but although there were scars on the old man's body, he made no sound.

His eyes like a poisonous snake stared at the whip bearer, cold and gloomy.

The whip bearer was not afraid and asked, "Have you thought clearly? Are you using it for your master, or are you going to die here?"

The old man didn't answer.

The whip bearer sneered: "It's not easy for you to live to such an old age. Do you want to die here?"

The old man looked up at him and suddenly said: "What are the benefits of this position?"

The whip holder smiled: "The benefits are great. First, you can survive!"

The old man looked at him coldly and said nothing.

This old man is Li Jingfeng.

He has been locked up here for several days.

That day, he was trapped in the yard by that smelly girl Mu Qingyu. It was a small yard, but he couldn't get out. He was hungry for two days and two nights. The shadows in the dilapidated alley surged up, making him feel fear again.

Again unwilling.

He knew that if he ran out of energy, the stinky girl would definitely attack him.

He caught a stray bird, drank its blood and ate its flesh, and gained some strength. But he still pretended to be very weak.

That stinky girl wanted to attack him? Huh, he just used the trick and chopped the stinky girl to death with one palm.

But before he could wait for the smelly girl to come back, he felt a smell, and then his vision went dark. When he woke up, he was in this secret room.

His whole body was chained and he was fed cartilage powder.

I only have one black hard steamed bun a day. I will never starve to death, and I will never be full.

There was also a man who came with a whip and whipped him every day.

Their purpose was to make him surrender to their master and become their master's eagle dog!

I really wonder, how can a master at his peak level be enslaved by others?

But in fact, he panicked on the third day. He just knew that since the man wanted him to surrender, he would not kill him for the time being, so he wanted to resist stubbornly.

A master at the peak level should not be afraid of Cartilage Powder, but he is actually afraid. Maybe there is something wrong with his internal strength, or maybe the Cartilage Powder is more effective!

If he eats the cartilage powder, he won't be able to boost his internal strength at all.

He tried for more than ten days, but there was nothing he could do.

Although the peak level has the pride of the peak level, the man said the right thing and it spoke to his heart.

It's not easy for him to live to this age. He can't eat anything like his backbone. If he lost his life for his backbone, wouldn't it be in vain that he drank so much blood of strangers in order to survive?

He has never been a man of backbone. When he was not yet accomplished in martial arts, when he encountered an opponent he couldn't beat, he would kneel down and beg when he should, and he never took his face seriously.

Now he is in such a desperate situation again. Since he can only surrender, he is a top expert and must seek more benefits.

The whip holder smiled at him and said, "Second, you can walk out from here!"

Li Jingfeng still didn't speak. Isn't this nonsense?

The whip holder said slowly and authentically: "Thirdly, my master will give you the preferential treatment that a master should have, with enough money and good food and drink!"

Li Jingfeng thought that before the Sixth Prince treated him as a guest, he had good food and drink, enough money, and a house.

It's really this moment and that moment.
