Chapter 13 One person stirs the storm in the city [4000,,,Follow-up](1/2)
The second day is a normal rest period and there is no need to go to court.
However, Ning Chen still arrived at the official department early.
Seeing Ning Chen being so active, many people panicked.
To say Ning Chen is a fool, obviously not.
Can a fool get the top prize?
So it's unlikely that Ning Chen doesn't know the secret behind this.
Now that you know the secret behind it.
The most correct thing for Ning Chen to do now is just one word - dragging.
If you can't avoid something, put it off.
Delay until both parties compromise in the game.
But Ning Chen is so active now, just like Ning Chen wants to die early and be born early.
But in this world, does anyone really want to die early and be born early?
Obviously impossible.
So what exactly does Ning Chen want to do now?
It became a matter that the entire capital officialdom was paying attention to.
Even the members of the Lin Party who were the Minister of Household Affairs were full of doubts about Ning Chen's actions.
For this reason, Lin Youwei paid a special visit to Lin Dunxin and asked Lin Dunxin for advice. By the way, he also wanted to find out whether Lin Dunxin had any new trends.
After a confrontation between the two old foxes, everyone decided on one thing.
That is, Ning Chen's speeding up has nothing to do with the two Lin parties.
Neither of them, the Lin Party, did anything regarding Ning Chen.
"Is it your Highness?" Lin Youwei asked Lin Dunxin tentatively.
Lin Dunxin pondered for a moment and shook his head: "It doesn't look like it to me. Your Highness has already proven her skill through the ceremony of establishing the crown prince.
His Highness is a man with great ambitions.
He is not a person who is eager for quick success,
If it were His Highness, she would probably also suggest that Ning Chen delay.
Until we all reach a consensus."
Lin Youwei listened to Lin Dunxin's analysis and couldn't help but nodded: "What Mr. Lin said makes sense. But how can we explain what Ning Chen is doing now?"
Lin Dunxin really couldn't think of an answer to this question.
If Ning Chen is really a stupid person, then everything can be explained.
But Ning Chen was not.
"Prime Minister Lin, why don't you test His Highness's attitude?" Lin Youwei felt that if he couldn't find the answer from Ning Chen, it would be best to find the answer from Wu Zhao.
Lin Dun said quietly: "The accounts of the Ministry of Revenue should be almost finished this year. How about Lin Shangshu join me?"
Lin You pondered for a moment and nodded: "Just follow what the left prime minister said."
Although he was suspected of being kidnapped, Lin Youwei really wanted to know the root cause of Ning Chen's behavior.
Because of this, it is related to his next series of deployments and plans.
…
When Lin Youwei and Lin Dunxin entered the palace to meet His Highness, Wu Zhao also frowned slightly.
Wu Zhao also knew that Ning Chen was taking exams non-stop.
But Wu Zhao also didn't know what Ning Chen was going to do, and he couldn't understand it either.
"Your Highness, do you want to call Ning Chen and ask him? Will he know everything as soon as he asks?" Sun Banban beside Wu Zhao said softly.
Wu Zhao's expression moved slightly, but then he said: "No, I don't understand what Ning Chen is doing. Others don't know what Ning Chen is doing even less? It's good to let them panic like this. The more panic they have, the more likely they will be.
The more you can show off your flaws."
"Your Highness Shengming." Sun Banban said flatteringly.
"I asked you to find two people to secretly protect Ning Chen. How did you arrange it?" Wu Zhao asked Sun Banban.
"Your Highness, I have arranged for two smart people to follow Lord Ning day and night." Sun Banban replied respectfully.
Wu Zhao shook his head and said: "Two are not enough, send a few more people to keep an eye on it. I'm worried that if Ning Chen does it so quickly, some people will jump over the wall in a hurry."
Sun Banban immediately bowed and said: "Old slave, go arrange the manpower right now."
Just when Sun Banban was about to leave, a young eunuch who was delivering orders came to Wu Zhao in small steps.
"Your Highness, the Prime Minister of the Left and the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs would like to see you."
"Let them wait in the main hall, I will arrive soon." Wu Zhao ordered the young eunuch.
The little eunuch responded and walked away backwards.
"I can't sit still so soon. It seems that there are really a lot of things happening to them." Wu Zhao muttered to himself, and then said to Sun Banban: "Sun Banban, you have been taking care of Ning Chen secretly these days."
"Where is your highness?" Sun Banban asked hurriedly.
"I am in this palace. Who dares to do anything to me in this palace?" Wu Zhao said in an unparalleled domineering manner.
Sun Banban could only respond, hesitating for a moment, Sun Banban said: "Your Highness, Lord Ning will be going to the Imperial Academy after the court is over these days.
I'm afraid I'll go there today, as Kong Jijiu has been in the Imperial College these two days.
If Master Ning goes to the Imperial College, will I still follow you?"
Wu Zhao said calmly: "I know why Kong Jijiu is looking for Ning Chen. If Ning Chen goes to the Imperial College, you can just wait outside.
If Kong Jijiu asks, just say that I am the one who sent you to protect Ning Chen, and Kong Jijiu will understand."
"Yes, I know."
After Wu Zhao left, Sun Banban looked at Wu Zhao's leaving figure, with both relief and a little sadness in his eyes.
Sun Banban is an old man who has been taking care of Wu Zhao since he was a child. Sun Banban thinks that he knows Wu Zhao best.
But Wu Zhao didn't know anything about Kong Jijiu looking for Ning Chen.
"Banban, just do your own thing.
That's something Kong Jijiu doesn't want you to know, so there's no need to think too much about it.
Banban is still the person I trust most."
Sun Banban, who was sighing behind him, suddenly heard Wu Zhao's voice in his ears.
Hearing Wu Zhao's voice, Sun Banban quickly bowed and said, "Your Highness will atone for his sins, and this old slave will die."
In fact, what Kong Jijiu asked Ning Chen to do was for the same thing as when Kong Jijiu suddenly appeared at Chu Wu Zhao's dinner party that day.
Wu Zhao indeed needed Kong Jijiu to help him demonstrate his prestige, and Wu Zhao's agreement to Kong Jijiu was also related to Wenshan Shuhai.
Neither Wu Zhao nor Kong Jijiu expected that Ning Chen would suddenly appear.
In this way, the transaction between the two people was completed in disguise.
After Wu Zhao completely disappeared, Sun Banban murmured softly: "Your Highness is really getting more and more powerful, I just moved a little slower.
Your Highness has already seen through what I am thinking.
It seems that I have to teach those brats a lesson in the future so that they will stop being so smart in front of His Highness."
After Wu Zhao went to the main hall, Sun Banban left the East Palace from another direction and went to find Ning Chen.
Wu Zhao met two old ministers who came to see him in the main hall.
Lin Youwei first reported to Wu Zhao some matters concerning the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Lin Dunxin listened on the sidelines and occasionally asked some more critical questions, allowing Lin Youwei to explain to Wu Zhao in detail, acting like a conscientious leftist prime minister.
"Your Highness, I have something to tell you." Lin Youwei glanced at Lin Dunxin, the old god, and finally had no choice but to go into battle in person.
"What does Lin Shangshu want to report?" Wu Zhao looked at Lin Youwei knowingly and acted like he was listening.
"Your Highness, Mr. Ning has been working overtime these past two days to deal with the capital examinations. I am worried that the results will come out too quickly and may affect the autumn harvest." Lin Youwei stood from the perspective of his household department.
Said to Wu Zhao.
Wu Zhao frowned after hearing Lin Youwei's words: "Didn't Lin Shangshu and Zuo Xiang agree to start this matter immediately at the court meeting yesterday?"
"this……"
With one word, Wu Zhao countered Lin Youwei's words.
That's right, you have scruples in your heart, and you opposed it in court yesterday.
If you come here now and tell me this, what do you mean?
