Chapter 114: The wisher takes the bait
The ancestor worship ceremony cannot be delayed, but if you can dig out a Ming Dynasty borer and slap the Oirats hard, then the King of Yi would never mind speeding up the itinerary and arrive in Fengyang one day earlier and complete the ancestor worship ceremony one day earlier.
The entire King of Yi was as if he had cultivated his spirit in Daming Mansion and headed straight to Fengyang. On the auspicious day selected by the Imperial Heaven Supervision a few days later, King of Yi completed this grand ceremony under the witness of a group of officials of all sizes.
From then on, King Yi never showed up in front of everyone again. No one knew that on the second day of the ceremony, he had left most of the teams of the Prince Yi's mansion in Fengyang and asked them to slowly return to the capital. He had already taken Xu Bai Shanglu and others on the way to Nanjing.
"Xu Bai, will the Lin family really come to fishing like you mentioned?"
Along the way, this issue was the most concerned about by King Yi.
"If you don't come, we will go back and pass by Daming Mansion. There is still time to deal with them, and the prince doesn't need to take action. Even if I move the Nanzhen Fushi Office to Daming Mansion, I have to find out the evidence that they have affair with the Ola!"
"Your Majesty, you are too underestimating yourself!" Shang Lu said with a smile: "The officials of the Yi Prince's Mansion are now very popular. If a businessman from the people can climb, it is equivalent to walking on a road to the heavens. In the future, it is unknown if it becomes an imperial merchant!"
Shang Lu also looked at King Yi, who was unaware of how much influence his identity had on outsiders. In terms of human nature, he was much more sophisticated than King Yi, but he was still a little confused. Xu Bai was not old. Is he so that he could definitely hook the Lin family to Nanjing with an invitation?
"I just thought that people who dare to do such a business would have amazing connections, at least they should be able to eat everywhere. Yingtian Mansion is the essence of Jiangnan. If the Lin family does business and does not operate here, that would be strange?"
Xu Bai smiled: "It's just to send someone to have some wine, and by the way, you can consolidate your friendship with Lord Fang. Even if you don't make a deal with the royal mansion, you won't lose much. If you do something, even if you help our royal mansion, the Lin family will make a lot of money. As long as the person in charge is not too stupid, they will definitely get in this trap!"
"Besides, they are really doing banned business. What are they most afraid of? Of course, they are most afraid of the court to investigate them. However, if they are involved in our prince, even if the matter is exposed in the future and the prince is protected, wouldn't they be much more at ease? Who dares to investigate them to death?"
Shang Lu nodded: "It is normal for people to seek good fortune and avoid bad luck. Xu Bai, you are very good at trying to figure out people's hearts!"
Even though he said that, there was a waiting process for the other party to get into a trap. Xu Bai and his gangs of subordinates were all from Nanjing, and it was not a secret thing for King Yi to do this. By the way, let his subordinates go home to see their relatives. It is also considered that King Yi was kind to his subordinates.
When I arrived in Nanjing in June, I also had my own affairs to do. On the list given to her by the Empress Dowager, several young handsome men were in Nanjing, so I had to find a chance to meet him in June. The King of Yi was also happy to participate in this kind of thing.
If Shang Lu hadn't been by his side every day, he would have to give him two hours of teaching, which would make him feel that it was not much different from staying in his palace. In other times, he would feel that it would be much more interesting than being in the capital.
When they arrived in Nanjing, the group moved directly into Xiao Gan's eunuch's mansion. Xiao Gan, who had already received the news, was both excited and frightened to welcome King Yi into his mansion. For him, King Yi stayed here, even if he was secretly stayed, he had great trust in him. This means that from this day on, he completely escaped from the whirlpool of the change of imperial power in the capital and stood firmly on the side of the winner.
As for the guards, June is familiar with the roads. The courtyard she lived in and even Xiao Gan kept it for her. When King Yi moved in under her guidance, he started to be fresh everywhere and soon became familiar with this place.
After everything was settled, Xu Bai asked King Yi for a leave of absence. He couldn't help but go home to check it out, but King Yi quit. While getting along with June, he learned that Xu Bai had taken June to wander around Nanjing for several days, and he also wanted to taste the taste of white dragon fish suit wandering around in the prosperity of Nanjing.
"It just so happens that I can go to your house with you. Do you have any elders in your house? Oh, no, that would be even better..." King Yi's eyes turned: "This is where you and Shen Yun come from. You won't worry about someone hitting me. If it really doesn't work, we can bring a few more people!"
"Prince!" Xu Baitou was as big as a fight and had to confess to King Yi: "The people in his subordinates' family are still not aware that their subordinates are following the prince to do things now. The prince will scare them when he comes home with his subordinates like this. They are ordinary people, how can they withstand such scare!"
"What about Chen Yun? Chen Yun, the people in your family don't know if you are currently working in the royal palace?" King Yi was really serious.
"Prince, we went to Beijing before the Nangong Incident of Your Majesty. We had never dared to reveal our whereabouts and identities before, and since then, we have been serving the prince. The people in our family really don't know these things!"
Chen Yun smiled and smoothed out the situation for Xu Bai: "Your Majesty, you know our origin. You didn't dare to disclose your identity before, and there was no need to talk about that identity in the future. Now everyone has a responsibilities and is working for the court and His Majesty. Then, naturally, I won't mention the past!"
"That won't work. Now you have already made it through, so you have to return home even more in glory!"
King Yi was not sure of his statement, so he turned around and asked Shang Lu: "Mr. Shang, Xu Bai and Shen Yun, can the current official positions be considered as returning home in glory?"
"Of course it's worth it!" Shang Lu smiled slightly: "But, doesn't the prince not want others to know about the prince's news in Nanjing? If they were returning home in a lively manner, wouldn't others know where the prince was after a little thought?"
When the King of Yi heard this, he suddenly became frustrated: "Yes, if my father knew that I was here, even if he didn't say it, he would say that I was making a fool of himself. If I could do something about the Lin family, I could explain it a little bit, otherwise, it would be hard to explain to my father why I didn't return to Beijing immediately!"
"So, it is a good thing for the prince to be polite to his subordinates, but it's good that everyone is happy, and there's no need to make a lot of controversy!" Shang Lu looked at Xu Bai with a smile: "They are afraid that they have been thinking about it for a long time. Prince, don't interfere. With this skill, it's better for us to review the subjects I've taught you this month..."
