Entering the study room, he saw that it was not as small as Su Chen thought, but it was not much bigger. However, four or five people could still hold it. Of course, the premise was that the neatly placed books inside were moved out. .
"Meet His Highness the King of Jin."
Just when Su Chen stepped into the house, he saw an old man with gray hair on his temples, who seemed to be in his twilight years, sitting listlessly on a chair, and there was a chair next to the chair, but from the position of this chair It is not difficult to guess from the location that this chair does not exist on weekdays.
"Mr. Yuan, there are a lot of books here." Su Chen thought for a long time and felt that he was here to discuss things, and there might be a falling out, so there was no need to pretend to be literary, so he said casually.
As he said that, he walked towards the empty chair.
"Xuanling, please go out." Master Yuan smiled weakly, then looked at the young man and said.
"Yes." The young man replied respectfully and exited the study.
Xuanling? When Su Chen heard this name, he paused in his heart. It seemed that it was very familiar, but he couldn't recall it. However, he was already sure in his heart that this young man was not an ordinary person, because Su Chen knew his historical level and remembered those who often mentioned it. Since you are so familiar with this young man's name now, he must be a celebrity. Anyone whose name has an impression in his mind is a powerful person, even if he is a corrupt official. This is Su Chen's definition of looking for a good person.
"This child is from Qizhou, from the Sui Dynasty that's all. Let's not talk about it. The common people came to your Highness today for two reasons." When Master Yuan saw Su Chen looking in the direction of his disciple's exit, he said with a proud face, But halfway through, I realized that this was boring, so I got straight to the point.
Su Chen nodded. It could be heard from the old man's words that even if nothing happened today, he would have met him again. Moreover, looking at the old man's current appearance, he might not be pretending to be ill, but that he was really in trouble.
"Ahem, Your Highness, the common people are here to thank you on behalf of the people of the city." Master Yuan forced himself to sit up straight and wanted to stand up, but was unable to do so, so he had to sit on the chair and bow slightly to Su Chen and said.
After listening to this, Su Chen thought about it and realized that he was just thanking the soldiers for not doing something bad, so he waved his hand and said, "That's right. After all, everything here belongs to me, Sui. No. We must do other things, otherwise we will still lose my Sui Dynasty¡¯s money.¡±
Master Yuan smiled, leaned back again to make himself more comfortable, and said: "Your Highness has the appearance of a true dragon."
When Su Chen heard this, he replied: "Old sir, have you ever learned physiognomy?"
Master Yuan shook his head and said: "I just saw some occasionally on the trees, it's not considered learning."
Su Chen nodded. He was waiting for the old man to say what happened today. Whoever speaks first about this kind of thing would be disadvantageous, so Su Chen had no intention of saying it himself.
"I, cough, cough, cough." At this moment, Master Yuan suddenly started coughing and looked very uncomfortable.
Su Chen stood up involuntarily, walked to Master Yuan's side, and slowly followed his back, but in his heart he still said that he was still too soft-hearted.
Master Yuan coughed for a while, his face improved slightly, and he said weakly: "Thank you, Your Highness."
When Su Chen saw that he stopped coughing and looked better, he returned to his seat and said, "What was the second thing the old gentleman said?"
"I would like to ask your Highness for a few favors, and please agree to it." Master Yuan said with a begging look on his face. If it weren't for his physical weakness, he would definitely kneel down in front of Su Chen.
But Su Chen was stunned. What was this? His grandson was killed. He just didn't mention it at all. He didn't expect to ask for anything.
"Your Highness, please agree." Master Yuan said weakly again.
"Tell me something." Su Chen decided to listen first and then talk.
"Please, Your Highness, let go of those ministers who were originally loyal to Nan Chen." Master Yuan took a deep breath and said slowly.
After saying that, he glanced at Su Chen's face and continued: "Please treat the people of Nanchen kindly. Please leave a bloodline to the Chen family. Please kill the witch Zhang Lihua. Please rule the country with benevolence."
In one breath, Master Yuan made a few requests, which made Su Chen depressed.
To be honest, he couldn't agree to anything among these items, because he was a prince now and had to listen to Yang Jian for everything. Yang Jian said he wanted to kill these people, or he was unhappy. I have to train Chen Shubao, but I really have no choice.
"If His Highness agrees to these things, the common people will give you generous gifts." Master Yuan saw SuFrom the expression on his face, he knew he was hesitating and said.
It¡¯s impossible for this old man not to know that he is not really in power, but why would he say these things to himself.
"Old man, it's not that I don't agree, but I still have to listen to my father about the things you said." Su Chen said honestly.
Master Yuan showed a smile and said: "Your Highness is the Sui Dynasty, the second son of the emperor. It is not that there is no chance, but everything takes time, and there are many powerful generals around your highness, and there will be no shortage of counselors. If your highness really wants a certain position It¡¯s just a snap of the fingers, not to mention that the current prince is mediocre and does not like the emperor. If it were not for his status as the eldest son, I am afraid he would be nothing more than a prince now."
¡°This old man is awesome, but is he helping himself find that position, or is he trying to express something? Moreover, he said that there will be no shortage of counselors. My dear, what I am short of is counselors.
"Among the many princes, Yang Liang and Yang Jun are the most outstanding, and they are also deeply loved by the emperor, but His Highness has the advantage of His Highness. First of all, His Highness is in the capital all year round, and often visits Queen Dugu in the palace. In the heart of Queen Dugu, It is far more than the other princes. Secondly, His Highness's feat of destroying Nan Chen is unparalleled in history. This is even more favored by the Emperor. Needless to say, there are rewards and other things. Moreover, His Highness has already been among the hundreds of thousands of troops in this battle. Having prestige, which is the most important thing, comes to your Highness three times to win the hearts and minds of the people." Master Yuan said weakly.
After hearing this, Su Chen smiled. What the old man said made him feel as if he could easily become the emperor. Although he was telling the truth, what he said was too optimistic. Not to mention the group of ministers around the prince. It's Yang Jian's place. Yang Jian is still alive and well, and I heard that he is planning to take a concubine.
¡°But I have to admit that this old man is very talkative, but that¡¯s what Su Chen likes.
"What is the gift you are talking about?" Su Chen thought for a moment and decided to listen to what the gift was.
"Host Su Chen, the mission [Talking with Confucians] has been cancelled."
¡
"Host Su Chen, obtained the mission [Complete Master Yuan's prayer]"
¡
Just after listening to what the system said, Su Chen couldn't help but look back at the silver-haired girl standing behind him. What is this? Isn't this forcing him to agree to Master Yuan's prayer?
"My reputation." Master Yuan said calmly. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to become a registered member of Piaotian Literature to recommend this work. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
