"Qi Hanzhou, the criminal of Longyin Peak, asks to see His Highness the Crown Prince."

The prince was happily asking Jin Yan about interesting things about Longyin Peak's cultivation, when he heard Qi Hanzhou's call for an audience from outside.

Jin Yan watched the prince's bright face suddenly switch to the easy-going atmosphere of a humble gentleman, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart.

Although the prince's decency comes from his heart, he still wears a mask to live his life. After all, he cannot have both high position and power and doing whatever he wants.

However, there are gains and losses. After all, it is the path you choose. I think the prince may have regrets in his heart, but he may not be dissatisfied.

"Then Jinyan will leave first."

What Qi Hanzhou wanted to discuss with the prince was about the alliance between the two forces. It would probably involve some confidential information, so it would be inappropriate for him to be present.

"Sister Jinyan, let's listen together. I'm not as familiar with this matter among monks as you are, so you might as well be my adviser."

But the prince offered words to persuade him to stay.

After staying for a while, Qi Hanzhou entered the hall, and Jin Yan had no choice but to sit and listen.

"Qi Hanzhou, a common man, has met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the prime minister's daughter." Qi Hanzhou's face was calm when he saw Jin Yan was there, and he stepped forward and saluted with royal etiquette.

Jin Yan was a little surprised.

Qi Hanzhou was so humble in front of the prince. With the strength of the monks under the mountain, it seemed unnecessary.

It is true that Su Huang suppressed the monk at the foot of the mountain, but he was unable to overthrow him, not to mention that the prince and Su Huang were not comparable.

“Master Qi’s great gift is really embarrassing to me.

When I first arrived at the precious land, I should have paid a visit, but instead I asked Master Qi to make the trip in person. "

As expected, the prince expressed his well-deserved polite refusal of this gift.

"The prince came to this remote place to ask for orders from the monks in the world. He deserves Qi's admiration."

Qi Hanzhou's short sentence was full of information.

The prince was reprimanded because of the crime of disrespect, so this crime of disrespect that cannot be announced to the public is because he went against Emperor Su's wishes for the monks?

The prince glanced at Qi Hanzhou meaningfully.

Qi Hanzhou looked back at the prince with a calm expression.

"Master Qi's words are serious. This tea soup is a new tribute from Tianfu. If Master Qi has nothing to do, why not sit down and taste it together."

"Then Qi will be more respectful than obey your orders."

After Qi Hanzhou sat down, the prince came forward to serve tea.

Jinyan had already drunk this tea before. The soup was clear and blue in color. It should be green tea, but with salt and various spices added. Jinyan was not used to it, so she took a sip and stopped drinking.

"Good tea. I've long heard that Tianfu's unique tea can dispel colds and detoxify, prevent diseases and relieve fatigue. It's true that it's famous. All the herbs in it can be used as medicine. Drinking it for a long time can prolong your life."

Jin Yan blinked her eyes as she watched Qi Hanzhou's tirade with a look of enjoyment on her face, and she couldn't help but wonder if she had really underestimated the efficacy of this tea soup.

"Master Qi's behavior is indeed a bit exaggerated. Just get used to it." Si Yin replied after hearing Jin Yan's complaints.

Jin Yan then put away her self-doubt and looked at Qi Hanzhou with some scrutiny.

Qi Hanzhou has a white face with Chinese characters, and his sideburns and long beard have been carefully trimmed.

Although the color of the wide-sleeved robe is plain, in addition to the exquisite embroidery commonly seen on the cuffs and collar, the fabric of the robe also has dark patterns woven with silver threads. It is actually a brocade of high cost.

Most monks don't pay much attention to the decoration of their clothes. The light gauze and embroidery that Jin Yan is wearing today would never be chosen on a normal day. Not only is it easy to break, it is also not conducive to movement.

Even if the Longyin Peak monks are not good at their own martial arts, they still have much more activities than the dignitaries who are always accompanied by others.

Even Master Yan, as an elder, dresses similarly to Jin Yan, rarely using silk and satin.

It seems that Qi Hanzhou has been in a high position for a long time and has become aristocratic.

Jin Yan secretly looked over here, and Qi Hanzhou and the prince had already talked about the cooperation in general.

The main purpose of Qi Hanzhou's trip was to gain the support of the prince, and the proposed method of cooperation was somewhat similar to the cooperation between Si Yin and Zuo Xiang.

The prince came forward to clear the name of the monks at the foot of the mountain, so that they no longer had to hide their identities and scattered around to work as bandits, and they could openly and honestly gain a place in the dynasty's power.

In contrast, the Yamashita monk organization will be used by the prince on the basis of maintaining a certain degree of autonomy and become the prince's right-hand man.

It sounds like the best of both worlds, but if what Qi Hanzhou said before is true, then the prince's move is blatantly opposing Emperor Su, which is tantamount to conspiracy.

Could it be that Qi Hanzhou wanted to use this to support the prince to overthrow Emperor Su in one fell swoop and become an important minister with the power of Conglong?

That's a little naive, right?

Sure enough, the prince did not reply to Qi Hanzhou's temptation, saying that he was frightened during the banquet. He had noticed it a little before, but now he felt a little suffocated after relaxing.

Qi Hanzhou was also very aware of current affairs and said that he was responsible for the lax treatment of General Zhao Yan when he was injured. He obtained the prince's permission and went to visit the doctor.

Jin Yan was most impatient to listen to the flirtatious conversations between the two, so she drank tea and concentrated on chatting with Si Yin. At this time, when she saw Qi Hanzhou retreat, she took a long breath and relaxed.

"Although sister Jin Yan has forgotten the past, her temperament has not changed much. She is still as old as before, impatient with these hypocritical gestures." When the prince saw her, he did not feel that Jin Yan was rude. Instead, he seemed very happy.

Doesn’t the original owner like it too? That would be great.

After all, it is not strange to lose memory, but a drastic change in temperament will make old friends feel strange.

Jin Yan is still very willing to gain some favorability from the original owner and receive help from the prince.

Jin Yan took a sip of the tea soup, frowned deliberately and said, "This tea is salty and spicy. Does the prince really think it tastes good?"

The prince was stunned for a moment, then raised his sleeves to cover his mouth, and smiled: "The Holy Emperor loves this tea soup the most, so you are the only one who dares to say this."

As he spoke, he looked at the tea soup and was slightly lost in thought. After a while, he sighed slightly, "You are right, I do not like this tea soup, but I am not as able as you to express it openly."

Jin Yan looked at the prince's disappointed look and said in a strange way: "It's okay, brother prince, whatever you can't say to others, you can say to me."

Hearing this, the prince suddenly raised his head and looked at Jin Yan, with a look of surprise on his face: "That's what you told me before! What did you remember?"

Jin Yan was slightly stunned and quickly shook her head.

But there was also some doubt in my heart.

I am not someone who likes to be a close eldest sister, so why am I so different towards this prince? Is it because the original owner still has residual consciousness?

Maybe. I didn't get a trace of the original owner's memory when I traveled through time. It could be that the original owner's consciousness blocked it.

Jinyan's denial did not discourage the prince.

"It's okay if you don't remember. If you can say such things, it means you are still my sister Jinyan." The prince looked at Jinyan with a smile and said,

"What do you think the cooperation mentioned by Qi Hanzhou should be like?"

Jin Yan was startled by the prince's question: "How can I arbitrarily discuss such a big matter?"

It was about the replacement of the throne, and Jin Yan felt that she did not have the ability to share the prince's worries.
