Fairy, Please Let Me Explain Chapter 464

Chapter 464 Dream

As the night gets darker and the stars change, the bustling Di'an City gradually falls into silence.

Xu Yuanduan was sitting in front of the tea table, his eyes flickering under the moonlight shining through the window.

 Li Yucheng returned to the palace.

 The huge room seemed a bit lonely when there was only one person sitting alone.

 Even though Li Yaoxuan had acquiesced that he could make some preparations, as a prince who was already in charge of the country, Li Yucheng still had to carry out his recruitment of ministers in secret.

 Before dawn, he had to return to the palace to prepare for a new day of morning court.

Xu Yuan picked up the teapot that Li Yucheng had brewed before leaving, added a cup for himself, drank it all in one gulp, and gently raised a smile on his lips.

The tea is not cold when people leave.

This night, the two talked a lot.

After opening up the conversation, the two of them talked about topics ranging from the people's livelihood at the grassroots level to the current political decrees, from external worries to internal hidden diseases. It was a great time for both host and guest.

However, something that was somewhat beyond Xu Yuan's expectations was that Li Yucheng never mentioned the recruitment matter from beginning to end.

I think it was his previous remarks that made Li Yucheng change his mind and the importance he attached to his current false identity.

 From a dispensable secret, he rose to a staff member who could assist him in governing the world.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan sighed lightly.

Judging from what I saw and heard tonight, this middle-aged prince indeed fits Xu Yuan's definition of a benevolent king.

Of course, the premise of all this conclusion is that Li Yucheng did not play him.

 Every person in the power center of Dayan is the kind of master of acting that can make you cry. Xu Yuan will naturally not make the mistake of trusting others easily.

But with the way the two of them were talking tonight, he should still have a chance to meet the prince.

 Just observe again when the time comes.

 Standing up from the tea table, Xu Yuan was ready to go and have a rest.

Although he had broken through the integration and his body no longer needed sleep, if he didn't sleep at night, Xu Yuan always felt like something was missing.

 But at this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the wooden door of Tianxun's wing.

Stopped and looked back, Xu Yuan subconsciously wanted to use his spiritual vision to investigate, but in the end he held back.

Although spiritual vision is extremely hidden, a strong person at the transformation level can still detect it. In order to prevent his identity from being exposed, it is best not to abuse it during this period of time.

Going over and opening the door, what came into view was an old man who looked a little older but had stern eyes.

Xu Yuan looked at the person coming up and down, and a name came to his mind.

 Wang Yuqian.

 The Minister of War, that is, his current identity is Lao Tzu.

Glancing at the other party, Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly.

 He didn't understand why the other party could find this place.

Although he was confused, Xu Yuan did not speak immediately. He turned around and walked into the room, sitting back down in front of the tea table where he had just talked with Li Yucheng.

But this time,

 He sat on the throne.

The old man had no objection when he saw this scene and followed Xu Yuan into the room.

The moment he stepped into the room, Xu Yuan raised his finger to pour tea slightly, the door closed automatically, and the array in the entire wing immediately started operating, completely isolating all sounds inside and outside.

Poured a cup of fragrant tea for the old man and placed it on the tea table opposite. Xu Yuan slowly raised his eyes and asked:

 “Won't Mr. Wang sit down?”

Wang Yuqian looked at the man opposite him who looked the same as his heir, but his expression was extremely respectful. After bowing solemnly and saluting, he knelt down and sat down:

 “Yes, Third Young Master.”

Xu Yuan smiled slightly, poured himself tea, and asked casually:

 “Mr. Wang, how did you find this place?”

This room was opened by Li Yucheng, and he had just walked in for less than half an hour when the Minister of War came to find him. Was the prince acting a little too imprudent?

Wang Yuqian hesitated slightly when he heard this question, and replied softly:

“The servant reports that you have booked a two-story private room in Xuanyue Building tonight.”

Xu Yuan also understood instantly when he heard this:

"It seems that the person opened a private room in my name."

 “That person?”

Although Wang Yuqian was old, he reacted quickly and subconsciously looked at the two empty porcelain tea cups on the side of the tea table.

Xu Yuan smiled slightly and said casually:

 “Prince Li Yucheng.”

 The person in front of me is someone whom Dad absolutely trusts, so there is no need to hide it.

and,

The other party is the father of this identity, and there are some things that the other party needs to know in advance in order to be prepared.

Wang Yuqian's pupils shrank slightly when he heard this.

 Third Young Master. Are you meeting the Crown Prince secretly here?

After thinking for a moment, Wang Yuqian subconsciously thought that he had almost failed the Third Young Master's plan, so he immediately bowed his head and said quickly:

“Third Young Master, I don't know what you are doing tonight.”

Xu Yuan was a little surprised when he saw the frightened old man in front of him, but he was relieved immediately.

Although the other party is a veteran minister who has experienced the ups and downs of the court for decades, and the power in his hands can be said to be more than ten thousand people, but this power is rooted in the behemoth of the Prime Minister's Palace.

 And now the matter of faking his death has already shown that he is important in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

 In other words,

In the eyes of the Minister of War, he, Xu Yuan, could decide the life and death of his entire family just like the prime minister.

The thought flashed through Xu Yuan's mind, he waved his hand with a smile and said with a nonchalant smile:

 “Why is Mr. Wang doing this?

“What happened tonight happened suddenly, and I was also suddenly visited by the prince. Moreover, wouldn't it be too weird for outsiders to see you, an old man, being so respectful to his heir?

"While I am disguising my identity, Mr. Wang only needs to treat me as a junior."

After a moment of silence, Wang Yuqian slowly raised his eyes and nodded slightly hesitantly.

Although I was wondering why the prince was looking for the third son, he knew the rules and didn't ask any questions.

Xu Yuan knocked on the table and asked softly:

 “I don't like to talk too much, Mr. Wang. When Mr. Wang comes here, he must have something to convey to me, right?”

"Yes, the Prime Minister asked the young man to tell the young master that he can go back to his hometown in the near future."

"oh?"

“Master Xiangguo said that the Fourth Miss's formation has achieved a breakthrough, and we need you, Third Young Master, to go back and verify it.”

  .”Xu Yuan.

It became quiet for a while, and Xu Yuan's eyes gradually showed a hint of excitement.

 He ​​did not expect progress to be so fast. Less than two months have passed since the day he told the other party about his needs, and Dora A Yao has already made a breakthrough.

 After thinking for a moment, Xu Yuan stood up and started to go out.

Seeing this scene, Wang Yuqian, the Minister of War, hurriedly called out to Xu Yuan and said: "Master, please be patient. I am just informing you of this trip. It is just Yinshi, and it will be later." You still need to go to the palace to pay your respects early, and when I come back, I can take you to the Prime Minister's Mansion together."

Xu Yuan was stunned when he heard this, then raised his hand and knocked on his head, sat back and said with a smile:

“I forgot about this after hearing this good news. Thank you Mr. Wang for reminding me.”

The third son of the Prime Minister's Mansion is dead. With his current status, there is no reason for him to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion alone.

Moreover, there are many informants from various forces around the prime minister's residence. If he wants to go home, he can only be brought into the mansion legitimately by this old man.

 After a pause, Xu Yuan asked softly:

 “Besides, Wang Laoke has other things to do.”

  “None at the moment.”

"In that case." Xu Yuan said, raising the tea cup in front of him and cupping his hands towards the other party.

Wang Yuqian understood immediately when he saw this, and a smile appeared on his old face:

"If there is no big event in the morning, the next court will be around Chen time, so I won't disturb you, Third Young Master, from your rest."

 Having said that,

Wang Yuqian slowly stood up and saluted Xu Yuan.

 The etiquette has not been completed yet,

Looking at the old man in front of him, Xu Yuan glanced at the porcelain cup that Li Yucheng had just used. As if he thought of something, he suddenly asked:

 “Mr. Wang, what do you think of the prince?”

The old man was stunned when he heard the words, and subconsciously glanced at the young master sitting opposite him. He pondered a little and said softly:

“I wonder what the young master is referring to?”

 Xu Yuanjian lightly pressed the tea case and said softly:

“The prince has been supervising the country for more than ten years. Mr. Wang is a pillar of the court. I guess he knows the prince's character quite well, right?”

 “Be a human being.”

Wang Yuqian murmured, carefully considered his words, and said softly:

“From what I have seen over the past ten years, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a gentleman.”

“In other words, he will be a benevolent king?”

Wang Yuqian's eyes twitched and he didn't answer.

 As a veteran who has been in the officialdom for so long, he felt that he could not accept this.

However, the position of Jiuwu is still undecided, so what does the young master mean by this?

Noticing the way the old man looked at him, Xu Yuan immediately realized that he had made a mistake, and turned to laugh in a low voice:

 “Just say something casually, don't take it seriously.”

Wang Yuqian smiled and nodded when he heard this, but his eyes became more thoughtful.

  .”Xu Yuan.

 It's bad. Now it seems that the other party won't believe anything I say.

 The old man has reminded him before that every move he makes now, even if he makes a joke casually, the people below will read and understand it word for word.

 He is still somewhat unable to adapt to the current change in status.

As he was sighing in his heart, Xu Yuan suddenly heard the old man opposite him saying in a slightly tentative voice:

“Third Young Master, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a gentleman in person, and when it comes to government affairs in the court, there is also a saying among courtiers that he is a benevolent monarch. Many of the decrees issued by him when he was supervising the country are indeed related to the livelihood of the common people.”

Speaking of which,

Wang Yuqian bowed slightly before continuing:

“However, due to various reasons, these decrees were basically rejected by the prime minister.”

Hearing this, Xu Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

When Wang Yuqian saw this scene, his voice became much softer:

“The reason for the Prime Minister's objection is that the cost of implementing these decrees is too high, and it is difficult for them to reach the grassroots government agencies.”

Xu Yuan rubbed his eyebrows, and he understood what the other party meant.

Although on the surface it was pointing out that the prince's decree was somewhat unrealistic, it was actually reminding Xu Yuan that the prime minister's attitude towards the prince was not very good.

 You son, please take it easy.

Huttered for a moment, Xu Yuan smiled softly, with a faint smile:

"I know about this. The Xuanyue Tower is quite far from the palace. Mr. Wang, you'd better go to the court first."

 “If it's too late,

 “According to the rules of the court, you may be punished.”

Wang Yuqian trembled slightly, his body became more stooped, and he bowed:

"It's the third young master. I'll take my leave first."

After watching the wooden door of the other side's room close again, Xu Yuan lay directly on his back on the slightly cold wooden floor, staring silently at the ornately decorated ceiling.

I do not know how long it has been,

With a sigh, Xu Yuan got up from the ground.

At present, he has already come into contact with the three princes from the royal family who are eligible to seize the throne, the eldest, second and third.

If the old man wants to carry out his original ideal, he will definitely need to select one of them for future cooperation.

Although the prime minister's palace is large, without the support of the royal family, given the current situation in the world, they will most likely repeat the same mistakes as in "Cangyuan" if they fight alone.

From an absolutely rational point of view, Li Zhaoyuan, who paved his way to the top with the lives of tens of millions of common people, is actually the most suitable to become the next emperor in the current situation.

 It has been two months since I woke up.

About Li Zhaoyuan, a lot of internal reference information about the war in the northern border from the Inner Court of the Prime Minister's Office shows one thing,

 He has almost completely digested the soldiers borrowed from the sect.

 and,

Li Zhaoyuan has begun to gradually get rid of the sect's control over him by leveraging the various military industries left by the northern sect.

Even with all kinds of obstacles, his plan is advancing step by step under his control.

From all angles, the second prince Li Zhaoyuan is really like his father, and he is undoubtedly the best partner to cooperate with.

 But it is a pity that Li Zhaoyuan is excluded whether it is due to personal emotions or from the overall perspective.

Even though he is trying his best to get rid of the sect's control, it has already made it difficult for the prime minister to trust him again.

 As for Li Yucheng.

Xu Yuan walked slowly through the silk curtain and came to stand on the railing where he and the prince had stood together before.

At this time, downstairs in Xuan Yue, the moonlight was like a waterfall, but the lights of thousands of houses in Di'an City had been extinguished, and the bustling scenery that the two of them shared turned into silence.

 “Gu, I want to try it.”

The gentle words spoken by the middle-aged prince subconsciously appeared in his mind. Xu Yuan couldn't help but smile softly, but his smile was a little helpless.

From Li Yunqing, he learned that Li Yucheng was actually very scheming, and even his own brother still monitored him like this, but Xu Yuan actually didn't care about this.

The other party is in the center of power. If he didn't have the city behind him, he would have been killed by others. There is actually no conflict between being ruthlessly wary of political opponents and being kind to the common people in the world.

 After a night of conversation, Xu Yuan admired Li Yucheng's character very much.

and,

His words tonight seemed to have planted a seed in the prince's heart.

If it were a different time, a different place, and a suitable world situation, Xu Yuan might really be willing to accompany the prince to go crazy.

 But unfortunately, the current world is not enough to support the other party's ambitions.

Xu Yuan is very clear that some things cannot be done just by wanting to do it.

Ambition beyond reality,

 That is an unrealistic dream that will crush the dreamer to pieces.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan sighed quietly and subconsciously looked in the direction of Miyagi City.

Thinking about it,

He still feels that Li Yunqing is the most suitable partner for the Prime Minister's Office
