It didn't matter that the old emperor didn't care about things, and it didn't matter that he left all political affairs to the prince. The things that made King Chen angry were soon sent to his desk by the prince.
It is said that King Chen is more knowledgeable about political affairs, so it would be better to leave it to him.
The political affairs were left to him, but it was always the prince who went to court in the name of assistant government every day.
In other words, the prince wanted Chen Wang to work for him, and the credit belongs to the prince. King Chen had to work in vain and was said to be thinking about that position all day long.
King Chen wants to shirk the responsibility, but there are so many political affairs every day. If he doesn't deal with it, one of the people will suffer. He cares about the people, but he really can't be ruthless. .
For this reason, King Chen called Lu Baichuan to ask, and Lu Baichuan's answer was: "Take it, but don't do it."
King Chen blinked, and there was no answer for a moment. Realize what he meant.
Lu Baichuan explained: "The prince finds something for His Highness to do. His Highness can accept it. When the palace sends someone in the evening, he will return the unprocessed memorial as usual. The reason is that he was busy and forgot. , for several days in a row, the prince did not dare to pass the blame anymore."
"Then the political affairs will not be handled?"
King Chen was a little anxious, he didn't want to be like this.
Lu Baichuan thought for a while and said: "Your Highness can look for urgent documents and understand the specific situation. If it is serious, it can be dealt with privately, but he will not mark it on the memorial and just return it to the prince as it is."
When he explained it this way, King Chen understood.
Now he is doing things for the prince every day. In fact, the courtiers will only praise the prince, and no one will remember that this is what King Chen did.
But King Chen did not help review the memorial for several days, which made it difficult for the prince to do anything in front of the courtiers. The courtiers would naturally start to criticize the prince, and the prince's dream of sitting back and relaxing could no longer be realized.
"This is a good idea! Okay, let's do it like this!"
King Chen became energetic instantly, and he was not very distressed when faced with these memorials on the table.
"How has your investigation been going these days?"
Now in a good mood, King Chen also paid attention to Lu Baichuan's recent situation.
Ever since Daoping was thrown on the city wall, Lu Baichuan has ignored this matter and has been following Lin Yiping. When Lin Yiping didn't go out, he would follow Prince Lin. He always felt that the difference between these two people was There should be some connection between them.
“There is no progress yet, we are still following up.”
Speaking of this, Lu Baichuan was also a little helpless. He has been out for a long time, and he will soonIt was late autumn, and he wanted to go back to find his wife.
But it was rare to come to the capital once, and Lin Yiping had been very active recently, so he still didn't want to miss this opportunity.
Lin Yiping had wanted to silence him, so he couldn't let him go for too long, otherwise there would be endless trouble.
King Chen does not need to worry too much about this. Lu Baichuan’s ability does not need to be questioned by him, and he believes that Lu Baichuan will definitely be able to handle it well and give him a satisfactory result.
"Okay, then I won't interfere with you in this matter. You can handle this matter yourself. If you need personnel, you can mobilize them at any time. If you have anything that cannot be solved, come to me at any time."
King Chen made a promise, and Lu Baichuan naturally would not refuse, so he agreed and withdrew.
He felt that he could not delay for too long, otherwise he would not know when he would be able to return to Jingzhou. Just like in Nantai, he wanted to make a quick decision.
As for Lin Yiping, since the Daoping matter was settled, he has not contacted anyone in Dongting for several days.
King Chen was ruthless and wiped out many of their dens, killing most of them. In the short term, they will not dare to show up again.
Lin Yiping felt a little irritable. He had been working hard for many years and finally seemed to have a chance. However, he was so easily handed over to him. He was really not willing to accept it.
King Chen usually seems to be quiet, but he didn’t expect to find the hideout in Jingzhou long ago. As for Daoping’s matter, he must have done it, otherwise the old emperor would also You won't compromise so easily.
Now the only way to bring down King Chen is to find evidence that he drugged the old emperor.
But the problem is, now that Daoping is dead, where should he find this kind of evidence?
The masked person next to King Chen is worth paying attention to. He seems to talk very little, but in fact he is quite capable and can always come up with all kinds of strange medicines to deal with people.
This time, the people in the Taoist temple quickly confessed, all because the masked man came out with some weird medicines, which made people unable to resist.
Not to mention the other little Taoist priests who knew some of the situation, even Daoping who was specially trained by Dongting couldn't help but recruit. That's why King Chen wiped out so many dens in such a short period of time. .
The people at Dongting have always cooperated with Lin Yiping. They have helped each other do a lot of things over the years, but now that they have failed like this, how should he go next?
The most important thing is that King Chen has now set his sights on him. He used to follow him secretly, but now he follows him openly.
Although in his heartAlthough he was a little worried, more of him was still disdainful. He could get to where he is today not just by relying on the people in Dongting. It was still difficult for King Chen to catch him.
However, he really can’t be too active recently and needs to be quiet for a while first.
"Master, Prince Jing is here to visit!"
Someone knocked on the door, the voice was low and a little wary.
