Daqing: Reborn Prince, intercepting Si Lili at the beginning

The three of them were already familiar with Li Chengyuan, so they weren't really polite.

Old Huang skillfully went to find bowls and chopsticks for Li Chengyuan, while Wang Qinian moved a chair for Li Chengyuan.

Teng Zijing poured the wine.

After Li Chengyuan sat down and took a sip of wine, he complained, "Yangyuan wine? Good boy, Old Huang, you are willing to spend it!"

"Hehehe!" Old Huang said, "Your Highness, you may not know that Miss Huanggua has already developed Yangyuan Liquor according to the secret recipe you gave her.

So now there is no shortage of Yangyuan wine in the mansion!"

Li Chengyuan was surprised and said, "Really? When did it happen?"

"It happened the day before yesterday!" Old Huang said with a smile, "Because you've been a little busy these past two days, maybe Miss Cucumber forgot to tell you!"

"Oh!" Li Chengyuan nodded and didn't care.

Because he usually has unlimited food and drink, and he never asks about these things, it is normal that Cucumber did not tell him.

At the side, Wang Qinian chuckled, licked his big face and approached Li Chengyuan, with a shy expression, "Your Highness, can you give me some of this Yangyuan wine?"

"???" Li Chengyuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Old Wang, you can't hold on any longer?"

Wang Qinian said shyly, "Your Highness, when a man reaches middle age, he has to deal with certain things. There's nothing he can do about it!"

"Ahem!" Teng Zijing suddenly said, "Your Highness, I need something too!"

Li Chengyuan was at a loss for words and said, "Okay, no problem. When you go looking for sweet potatoes later, just tell her what I said and ask her to give you more!"

"Okay, thank you, Your Highness!" Wang Qinian immediately smiled happily.

Teng Zijing also breathed a sigh of relief, obviously he had been thinking about this matter!

Li Chengyuan turned to look at Jian Jiuhuang, and said with a half-smile, "Old Huang, I just heard you say that you were more handsome than me when you were young?"

"No, no!" Old Huang said hurriedly, "Your Highness, I was just bragging! How can I compare to you? When I was young, I wasn't as popular with women as you!"

"What about Lady Fire? Did you really scum her?"

"No!" Old Huang said with a wry smile, "I did want to come, but their family is too powerful. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to leave after I went, so I simply refused!"

"Pfft!" Li Chengyuan couldn't help laughing out loud.

Wang Qinian and Teng Zijing couldn't help laughing.

After laughing, Li Chengyuan asked again: "What about Liu Niang?"

"Uh!" Old Huang chuckled and said, "I'm still working on this!"

Liu Niang is the cook in the mansion. She is in her forties. She is not very pretty, but she is very attractive and can manage the household. Old Huang has been pursuing her recently.

Li Chengyuan nodded and said, "Then you should work hard. Otherwise, you can't just drink and do nothing. I'm still waiting to see you holding your son!"

Old Huang scratched his head and said, "Your Highness, I am anxious too, but this matter cannot be rushed!"

"It's okay, I'll ask Sang Wen and the others to help you with some advice later!"

"That's great, thank you, Your Highness!" Old Huang chuckled foolishly.

Li Chengyuan rolled his eyes at him, then turned to Wang Qinian and asked, "Old Wang, you came here during the day, is there something important going on?"

When Wang Qinian heard Li Chengyuan ask this, he immediately straightened his back and replied seriously: "Your Highness, it was the dean who asked me to come. He said that from now on I am yours and will only obey your orders.

The dean won't give me any more tasks. I'm essentially unemployed now, so I have no choice but to come to you!"

"Oh! So that's it!" Li Chengyuan nodded and said, "Okay, no problem!

Actually, you can be with anyone between me and Dean Chen.

Anyway, your short-term task is to take care of Fan Xian.

When Fan Xian has fully grown up, it won't be too late for you to come back and help me!"

"I will obey your Highness!" Wang Qinian bowed and agreed to do as you wish.

He has indeed gotten used to following Fan Xian now.

"Oh, by the way, where's Fan Xian? He should have been released, right?"

"Yeah!" Wang Qinian replied, "He has been released, but he seems to be in a bad mood. I went to look for him before coming here.

He didn't say anything, but just asked me for the location of Lao Teng's grave, saying he wanted to visit Lao Teng's grave!"

Teng Zijing: “???”

"Visiting Teng Zijing's grave?" Li Chengyuan said, feeling both amused and helpless. "Where is Teng Zijing's grave?"

"Ahem!" Wang Qinian said guiltily, "Your Highness, it was me who did it!"

Teng Zijing: “….”

Seeing Teng Zijing's expression was not right, Wang Qinian said hurriedly: "Your Highness, this is not my fault!

It was Fan Xian who asked me to help secretly take care of Teng Zijing's family.

In order not to expose them, I left the courtyard.

The only thing he could do was to find an empty grave for Teng Zijing to give Fan Xian an explanation.

Otherwise, he will definitely ask about it, and then I won’t be able to hide it anymore!"

Li Chengyuan then nodded.

After listening to this, Teng Zijing pointed at Wang Qinian, feeling both amused and helpless, but ultimately said nothing.

It’s just an empty grave, not a big deal.

Li Chengyuan took a sip of wine and stopped asking about Fan Xian. He estimated that he would need two days to rest.

"By the way, Lao Wang, has there been any movement in the official circles these past two days?"

"Yes!" Wang Qinian said, "Your Highness, don't you know? Ever since Lin Gong was killed, there has been great turmoil in the officialdom.

First, a group of fourth and fifth-rank officials were investigated and punished.

After that, several local officials voluntarily resigned.

Now the officials are in a panic, saying that His Majesty wants to weaken the power of the Crown Prince and the Second Prince.

The Crown Prince and the Second Prince have been extremely busy these past two days!"

Li Chengyuan smacked his lips.

He was wondering why the Crown Prince and the Second Son didn't get involved in Lin Gong's case. It turned out that they were too busy to take care of themselves!

It seems that Emperor Qing is really angry this time.

Otherwise, he would not have risked turmoil in the court to teach the crown prince and the second son a lesson!

This is also normal.

The main reason is that the second brother and Li Yunrui were really too bold this time.

He actually shattered the good plan that Emperor Qing had personally planned.

Especially since they used such a shameful method as assassination, which was simply challenging Emperor Qing's bottom line. It would be strange if Emperor Qing was not angry.

But this is actually a good thing for Li Chengyuan!

After His Majesty has taught the Crown Prince and the Second Prince a lesson, a large number of official positions will inevitably be vacant. This is a good time for Li Chengyuan to expand his power.

"Oh, right!" Wang Qinian continued, "Also, Your Highness, the news of you breaking into the Inspection Office this morning has spread throughout the officialdom.

Now, no one dares to say bad things about you even in private.

Even now, many people praise you when they mention you, saying that you are courageous and have the demeanor of His Majesty.

After all, you are the first prince who dared to break into the Censorate since its establishment!

I estimate that in the next few days, many people will come to you to seek refuge!"

Hearing this, Li Chengyuan couldn't help but feel happy and headache.

Fortunately, he broke into the Inspection Office just to change his appearance.

Now that the goal has been achieved, I must be happy.

But the trouble is, he has to socialize again in the next few days!

After all, he is now planning to expand his power and cannot push everything onto Yang Wanli as he did before.

If another official comes this time, he will definitely receive him personally!

I guess he will be busy in the next few days!

But it's all worth it.

Right now is the time when the Crown Prince and the Second Prince are in a panic, and it is estimated that many people will turn to him in order to protect themselves.

Now is a good time to pick up a bargain, as long as he can seize the opportunity.

It is estimated that with this wave of opportunities, he will be able to accumulate court power that is no weaker than that of the crown prince and the second son!

But in doing so, he was completely put in the spotlight and could no longer "beat up Li Chengze" as he pleased as before!

But it doesn’t matter, there is always gain in loss.

According to his plan, he really needs to cultivate his own party members now.

Only in this way can Li Chengyuan's subsequent series of "plans to usurp the throne" be successfully implemented.

Chapter 125 Si Lili's Ultimate Temptation! Fan Xian's Doubts about Li Chengyuan's Identity!

Lao Wang drank with Lao Huang and others at the palace until evening before leaving.

There's no way around it. My wife is very strict, so now that I finally have the chance to "drink at work," I naturally have to drink as much as I can.

But after drinking it, Lao Huang became a little timid.

I'm sure to get scolded if I go home smelling of alcohol.
