The prince nodded with a smile: "Your analysis makes sense."

Some people don't like that everyone's eyes are focused on Zhou Cheng, and they said: "We are not afraid of competition. The most important thing now is how to get the prince off the horse first. How to let him be exposed in the public?"

"Let's wait for the insider to send the news first, shall we? Our lord has always been far away from the capital, but this palace has always been dominated by the empress. The empress has been in charge of the harem for decades, and there should be a lot of insiders in the palace. There must be empresses in the East Palace. Man, Niang Niang wants to find out the beginning and the end of the matter, it shouldn't be difficult, right?" Qiu Baize looked at the prince and said tentatively.

"Yes, Niangniang has already handed over most of the people in the palace to the father, and the father is still waiting for the insider information to come out."

"Then the East Palace has an insider, so we can handle everything. As long as the informant can get close to the prince, we are not afraid that the prince's affairs will not be exposed."

Everyone discussed in the Shizi's room until midnight, and they didn't come up with a very effective plan. Many things at the birthday banquet were unpredictable, and many things needed to be adaptable.

The prince's original intention was to want everyone around him to participate, so that he could get more credit in the future, or be promoted.

At present, only a brief message has been received, and the specific details are still unknown. Seeing that he could not discuss an effective plan for the time being, he asked everyone to go back and wait for the news. They were specially told to keep their mouths shut and not to leak the rumors.

Zhou Cheng and Qiu Baize lived in the same courtyard, and the two went back together. They didn't dare to say much along the way.

"Our chance has come again." Qiu Baize whispered with bright eyes.

Zhou Cheng was very rational. "Wait half a month to see the situation. Now is not the time for the prince to be in his early years. Everything is arranged by the prince, and the informants are in the hands of the prince. It's too early for the prince to worry about it."

In the past few days, more and more vassal kings have arrived in the capital, and the city has become more and more lively. From time to time, there are fights in the streets. Or in various brothels, there are many people who fight for jealousy.

Those generals like to go to the street or go to the brothel when they have nothing to do, which can cause a lot of things.

There are several incidents every day, from morning to night, the city is in chaos for a time, and Jing Zhaoyin's hair is almost bald.

In these years, as long as the feudal lord enters the capital, the capital will not think about calm and stop.

The hawkers are too happy. These days are more lively than the Chinese New Year. The generals accompanying the feudal king like to buy some small things. Tuyi is the best time for them to make money.

Zhou Cheng and Qiu Baize rarely have time to go to the street,

I just want to buy something for my daughter-in-law and children at home, they may not be free every day.

They had just strolled around for a while when there was a commotion in the street, another large group of people entered the city at the gate of the city, and the people stepped aside one after another.

Everyone is discussing, which prince is entering the city today?

"You don't know this. I heard my brother-in-law who guards the city gate said that the king of Huainan entered the city today. Huainan is the most prosperous place besides Jiangnan, and the fief is huge. It is said that the king of Huainan was the most prosperous place before he became a vassal He was favored, so he had to be named King of Huainan."

The two of Zhou Cheng listened to the insiders talking, and they were immediately interested. They stopped by the roadside, planning to take a look at the style of King Huainan.

The King of Huainan did not wear armor like the King of Liaodong. He wore a wide-sleeved costume, rode on a white horse, and walked slowly, with a smile on his chubby face, looking amiable.

The shiny hair, the slightly bulging belly, and the smile on the white and tender face showed no folds, showing how much better his life was.

But what makes people puzzling is that he has only one adult son, and he is still the direct son left by the former princess, but he has not invited the heir.

Everyone was very puzzled. I heard that his eldest son was gentle and polite, and he also loved his younger brothers and sisters.

The people of Huainan all speculated that it was the pillow wind blowing from the concubine who married later, and the king of Huainan was not allowed to establish his heir. I heard that the king of Huainan was very fond of the princess, and he was obedient.

Zhou Cheng and the others listened to the gossip of the people next to them, they were very suspicious of the authenticity, and there were also people beside them who questioned.

"You will know when you go out and walk around. Every teahouse is talking about the deeds and gossip of each vassal king. Coinciding with the Longevity Festival, merchants from all over the country are flocking with treasures, so the news of the vassal king will spread. ?"

Everyone also thinks what this person said is quite reasonable, "We also have to go to the teahouse to sit, and there are vassal kings who come back every day, let's listen to them and talk more in the future. How can we ordinary people see so many noble people? Let alone discuss it."

The King of Huainan rode past with a smile, and the carriage behind him gradually approached, and the wind blew the curtain of the carriage. Zhou Cheng looked at the melancholy woman in the carriage in surprise.

Surprised for a long time, he couldn't return to his senses, but Qiu Baize stabbed him at the side, "What's wrong? I saw something, why are you still in a trance."

Qiu Baize has been listening to the gossip of the person next to him with great interest, and when he turned his head, he saw him staring at the King of Huainan's team in a daze.

"No, I suddenly thought of something. Let's go to the teahouse if we have nothing to do, shall we?"

He was perfunctory, thinking of what the people said just now, he directly pulled Qiu Baize with him, and wanted to find a big teahouse to sit for a while. Thinking that there should be able to hear what he wants to know.

"Who said there's nothing to do, why don't you go shopping to buy soil ceremonies. Why did you suddenly go to the tea house? When did you become interested in this kind of gossip?" Qiu Baize looked at him puzzled. As far as he knew, Zhou Cheng I don't care about this kind of gossip.

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be in danger in a hundred battles. It's no harm to listen more, and it can also deepen your impression of the various vassal kings." Zhou Cheng flickered without changing his face.

Believe him.

Seeing that Zhou Cheng was talking and walking forward, he didn't wait for him anymore. He didn't have any interest in walking alone, so he had to go to the restaurant behind him and sit for a while. Fortunately, he was free today and had plenty of time.

The teahouse was filled with all kinds of chatter. Zhou Cheng walked around and finally heard a table talking about a topic he was interested in. He dragged Qiu Baize to a nearby seat and sat down.

After letting Xiao Er serve two trays of refreshments, he pricked up his ears and listened to the people in the next seat talking.

Qiu Baize sat down with him. As soon as he sat down, he focused his attention on the next door. He also pricked up his ears, wanting to hear what he wanted to know? Suddenly so abnormal.

The person at the next table was gossiping with his friend: "I heard that the King of Huainan only favored Princess Huainan because the next-wife was the younger sister of the former princess, and she married her to help her sister raise the child. I have been married for ten years for this reason. dare not give birth.”

"No, Princess Ji is so virtuous? Then how did I hear that she lost a child eight years ago?"
