Su Niang lit a fire in the kitchen, thinking that she was going to drink in front of her, and it happened that there was a stack of pickles in the kitchen, so she took this stack of pickles to the front first, but before she reached the main hall, she heard Yingren's voice coming, and clearly heard Yingren calling himself "King of Qi".

Although Su Niang didn't know much, she also knew what "today's saint" meant, and she was taken aback, and then heard Chu Huan's voice coming.

"Humble generals, see His Royal Highness King Qi!"

Chu Huan's voice was not loud, but it was just right for Su Niang to hear it, and when she heard Chu Huan visit Yingren, Su Niang was startled, and she also knew that the young man she saw just now turned out to be the prince.

In the eyes of the people, the Son of Heaven is a god-like existence, which is omnipotent, controlling the life and death of anyone in the world, and the son of the Son of Heaven is naturally also an amazing figure.

Now that she knew Yingren's identity, how dare Su Niang send the pickles in her hand again, tiptoed back, and hurriedly went to prepare a new meal, and she was even more afraid, secretly thinking that if she sent this stack of pickles, she would annoy the King of Qi, and she didn't know if she was going to be killed.

Yingren had already gotten up at this time and helped Chu Huan who was worshipping on the ground, stared at Chu Huan's eyes and said: "This king told you your identity, not to let you have a defense, in fact, this king told you, but I don't want to hide it anymore, this king wants to treat you as a friend, not a monarch." ”

Chu Huan actually knew in his heart that Yingren's identity was not simple, but he was still a little surprised to hear him admit that he was the fourth prince, and he smiled when he heard Yingren regard him as a friend, and said without being humble or arrogant: "I am really flattered that the humble general can win the favor of His Royal Highness." Although he said that he was "flattered", he really did not mean to be frightened.

Yingren glanced back at Sun Desheng and said, "This is the consul eunuch beside this king, Sun Desheng!" ”

In fact, "eunuch" is not a humble title, but an honorific title, not everyone in the palace can be called a eunuch, the so-called eunuch, in the palace must have a certain status and identity.

Chu Huan arched his hand to Sun Desheng, "Grandpa Sun! ”

Sun Desheng nodded, since Yingren admitted his identity, Sun Desheng didn't want to stop him much, but said softly: "Chu Huan, Your Highness has a private visit, since you know about this matter, you should keep your mouth shut, don't leak the news." ”

Of course, Chu Huan had already guessed that Yingren was sneaking away, and said, "Your Highness and father-in-law can rest assured, Chu Huan will not leak it to the outside world." ”

Yingren patted Chu Huan on the shoulder and said, "Don't be suspicious just because you know who this king is, let's get along with each other as before, if you have too many courtesies, this king will be very unhappy." Come, sit down and talk! ”

Chu Huan smiled, and sat down.

Sun Desheng lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, a scholar...... Let's go back early! ”

Yingren said a little impatiently: "The teacher's jar of wine is in the stomach, but it doesn't take three or two hours to wake up." Didn't you say that the jar of wine could make the teacher sleep for at least seven or eight hours? ”

Sun Desheng was embarrassed for a while, Chu Huan was obedient and obedient, and he already understood that Yingren came out tonight, or sneaked out, the university scholar couldn't wake up after drinking wine, and he wanted to come to the jar of wine There were some problems, but it can also be seen that Qi Wang Yingren is still a little jealous of Xu Congyang.

Yingren looked at Chu Huan and said, "Chu Huan, you said that 20,000 taels of silver can redeem Ling Shuang, but this king's use has always been under the responsibility of the inner treasury, and this king does not have independent financial power, which you must have seen." ”

Chu Huan nodded.

Yingren said again: "This king has no silver on him now, and if you ask you to get 20,000 taels of silver, it will be difficult for you, and you may not have such a big connection." This king thought about it, so he could only borrow the silver himself, and the only one who could borrow it was Qiao Mingtang, the governor of Yunshan. As a governor, no matter how honest he is, he should still be able to take out the 20,000 taels of silver, and this king personally asks him to borrow it, and he will not refuse! ”

Chu Huan thought for a while, and finally said softly: "Your Highness, spending 20,000 taels of silver to redeem Miss Lingshuang is nothing more than a matter of wind and moon for ordinary people, and it is harmless." But...... If His Royal Highness redeems the body of a woman in a green building, he will definitely be criticized, and I am afraid it will be unfavorable to His Highness. ”

Yingren shook his head and said: "This king has thought about this, and if he takes the silver, this king will naturally not come forward to ......!" Staring at Chu Huan: "Chu Huan, you take the silver to help Miss Lingshuang redeem herself!" ”

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "Your Highness, no!" ”

Yingren was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "Why?" You are not willing to help this king. ”

Chu Huan leaned forward slightly, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness has an order, and Chu Huan will naturally not obey it." But since he is favored by His Highness, Chu Huan has to think about many things for His Highness. ”

Seeing Chu Huan's serious expression, Yingren also leaned over and said in a low voice, "How can you say this?" ”

Chu Huan said in a low voice: "Your Highness, let's first imagine that Miss Lingshuang's ransom silver is 20,000 taels, and His Highness did get 20,000 taels of silver from Qiao Mingtang, so the humble general asked, if you were Qiao Mingtang, would you be very interested in this, would you want to know what kind of way these 20,000 taels of silver are used?" ”

Yingren touched his nose, thoughtfully, and finally nodded: "Yes, naturally I want to know." It's just that Qiao Mingtang has the courage to ask what this king is going to do! ”

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "He doesn't dare, but it doesn't mean that he won't know." Your Royal Highness, Qiao Mingtang is the Governor of Xishan Road, you don't underestimate Governor Qiao's ability, if he wants to know about the big and small things in Xishan Road, there are few things he doesn't know. ”

Yingren's brows were squeezed together, but he didn't speak.

"If Your Highness asks the humble general to take the silver to redeem the Lingshuang girl, the humble general will naturally comply. But this matter is definitely not small, and it may soon reach the ears of Governor Qiao......! Chu Huan said calmly: "Your Highness, imagine that you borrowed 20,000 taels of silver from Governor Qiao, and the inferior general took another 20,000 taels of silver to redeem Miss Lingshuang...... With Governor Qiao's shrewdness, he will definitely be able to detect the relationship soon, and with his ability, he will soon be able to investigate the inside story, His Royal Highness spent a lot of money to redeem Miss Lingshuang, and he will definitely be known by Governor Qiao! ”

Yingren's fists couldn't help but clench, and he sneered: "Does he, Qiao Mingtang, still dare to investigate the matter of this king." ”

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "Of course he doesn't dare to investigate openly, but he will definitely find out the ins and outs of this matter in private." After a pause, he stared at Yingren and seemed to be speechless.

Yingren hurriedly said: "Chu Huan, what do you want to say, although it is said that this king trusts you the most, you don't have to scruple if you have anything to say!" ”

Chu Huan smiled and said: "Father-in-law Sun is also His Royal Highness's person, even if Chu Huan says the wrong thing, please bear with the two of you." He asked softly, "General Bei wants to ask, does Your Highness want to let Governor Qiao know about this?" ”

Yingren immediately said: "Naturally, I don't want to." ”

Sun Desheng couldn't help but come closer, and said in a low voice: "Chu Huan, the affairs of His Highness, no matter how big or small, must not be known to Qiao Mingtang. Especially this matter, if Qiao Mingtang knew about it, maybe it would be ......! But he didn't go on.

Chu Huan said: "Are Your Highness and Grandpa Sun worried?" ”

Yingren thought about it, finally sighed, and said in a low voice: "Chu Huan, this king won't hide it from you, do you know how Qiao Mingtang became the governor of Yunshan Mansion?" ”

Chu Huan shook his head.

Yingren said: "This king doesn't hide it from you, this Qiao Mingtang's father-in-law, Mo Qinghuan, used to be the prince of the country, and he had some connections in the court, he was very close to the prince's brother back then, and he was also the prince's brother's person." Qiao Mingtang also became the protégé of the prince's brother because of Mo Qingrao, and he was able to become the governor of Yunshan Mansion, firstly, because this person was indeed talented, and secondly, because the prince's brother strongly recommended it to his father back then...... To put it bluntly, Qiao Mingtang is the prince's brother! ”

"Oh?" Chu Huan frowned.

"Brother Crown Prince has a good relationship with this king." Yingren said in a low voice: "It's just that the prince's brother is very old-fashioned, and he is also very strict with this king, if the prince's brother knows that this king redeemed the Qinglou woman, then ......!" At this, his face was full of worry.

Chu Huan said: "If Governor Qiao is a person from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, then he knows that His Royal Highness has redeemed Miss Lingshuang, and he will wait for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to know about this matter......!" ”

Yingren smiled bitterly: "In this way, this silver can't be borrowed from Qiao Mingtang. ”

Chu Huan pondered for a moment, and finally said: "Your Highness is so embarrassed, the humble general has an idea, but ...... Some risks! ”

Yingren's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but reach out and grab Chu Huan's hand, and said, "Chu Huan, you say, what do you have in mind?" As long as you can rescue Miss Lingshuang, this king will definitely reward you! ”

Chu Huan thought about it, and finally leaned close to Yingren's ear and whispered, Yingren frowned slightly and asked, "Is this ...... Is that okay? ”

Chu Huan's expression was solemn, and he said, "Time waits for no one, and for a while, we can't raise so much silver." In fact, although the humble general estimated that 20,000 taels of silver could redeem the Ling Shuang girl, this was just an estimate, and it was not known how much it was. Miss Lingshuang is now the head of the bank, and she is the cash cow of the Jade Building, and the Jade Building will not let go easily. As cumbersome and cumbersome as it is, it's not as simple as this...... However, in the future, His Royal Highness must arrange it, and there must be no mistakes! ”

Yingren bowed slightly, picked up the wine bowl, took a small sip, hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind: "Chu Huan, since this is the case, it can only be like this." This king will leave this matter to you, but you must be careful every step of the way, and you must not go wrong. He glanced back at Sun Desheng and said in a low voice: "This king will let Sun Desheng secretly arrange ......!" ”

Chu Huan said: "Has Your Highness made up your mind?" ”

Yingren nodded and said, "Yes, just do it!" ”

Chu Huan arched his hand and said: "Your Highness has an order, Chu Huan must do his best to do this for His Highness!" ”

Yingren said with a look of gratitude: "Chu Huan, you are very good, when this king is in the most difficult time, you can do things for this king like this, and your credit will definitely be remembered by this king!" ”

Chu Huan smiled and said: "Your Highness Corporal Lixian, you value Chu Huan so much, and you can also treat Chu Huan as a friend, since you are a friend, it is Chu Huan's honor to be able to help!" ”

Yingren laughed, the haze on his face just now suddenly dissipated a lot, picked up the wine bowl and said, "Come, let's drink!" ”
