The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy

Seeing that the Princess of Yan was adamant and would not cooperate until she met the Fourth Prince, General Weiwu was at a loss for a moment and had to make an appointment with the Princess of Yan to meet at Zui Xiang Tower at 3 p.m. tomorrow.

After the Princess of Yan left, General Weiwu quietly left through the back door of Zui Xiang Lou.

Ignoring the heavy rain outside, the mighty general headed straight for the Fourth Prince's mansion.

"Did she really say that?"

Xie Jin didn't expect that the Princess of Yan State still had some brains. "Since she insists on seeing this prince, then let her see him."

"However, there is no need to go to Zui Xiang Lou. This prince will go to see her in person tonight to prevent the news from leaking out."

Borrowing troops from the State of Yan is no small matter. Now that his father is still alive, he will never let his father realize that he has any ulterior motives. Even if he is pretending, he will pretend to be at peace with the world.

The mighty general nodded and said, "Would you like me to go with you?"

This time he failed to complete the task assigned by the Fourth Prince. General Weiwu felt uneasy, fearing that the Fourth Prince would be dissatisfied with him.

"Need not."

Xie Jin could see through the mighty general's thoughts at a glance. He chuckled and said earnestly, "General, don't be so reserved. This prince has always valued his promises. I will never change what I promised you. You can rest assured."

Although General Weiwu's military power had been taken away by his father, no matter what, all the soldiers under General Weiwu were led by him personally. Whether he had military power or not, those soldiers would recognize him as the general.

Moreover, the mighty general who no longer has military power can make my father let down his guard.

For Xie Jin, General Weiwu is a very good chess piece. If used well, it will be beneficial to him rather than harmful.

Hearing this, General Weiwu immediately felt relieved. He bowed to the Fourth Prince and said, "Thank you for your trust, I will definitely help you achieve your great cause!"

Xie Jin smiled: "Of course, this prince believes in the general."

"It's a rare visit for the general, why don't you meet with some of my aides first? Otherwise, when you meet later, you won't know who the other person is working for."

In order to get that position, Xie Jin had already secretly recruited three outstanding and talented aides.

Among them was a resourceful Mr. Min, who was not only good at using poison, but also had insights into the political affairs of the dynasty. He helped him a lot on several occasions. He was specially brought back from southern Xinjiang by his biological father and sent to him.

Hearing this, the mighty general was overjoyed.

The Fourth Prince's proactive invitation showed that he had completely acknowledged that he was one of their own.

The mighty general quickly agreed: "Well, it's time to meet him."

Xie Jin nodded: "Then follow me here."

After saying that, Xie Jin walked out of the study.

The three aides lived in the quietest courtyard in the mansion, which was specially rebuilt by Xie Jin and named Changqing Courtyard.

The mighty general followed the fourth prince, and the two of them entered the courtyard together.

When he looked up, the mighty general saw two people playing chess in the pavilion in the yard.

Just as he was about to ask, he saw the person in the pavilion suddenly stand up and walk towards them hurriedly.

"Chen Ye has met the Fourth Prince."

"Tang Liang has met the Fourth Prince."

As soon as they saw the Fourth Prince, Chen Ye and Tang Liang hurriedly saluted.

Chen Ye and Tang Liang were originally close friends and had already passed the age of thirty. Later, the Fourth Prince noticed their talents and recruited them into the palace as his staff.

"No need to be so polite, gentlemen."

Xie Jin was very gentle towards his staff and even extended his hand to the two of them, wanting to help them.

But Chen Ye and Tang Liang didn't dare to let the Fourth Prince help them up, so they stood up again in a hurry.

As soon as he stood firm, Chen Ye took the lead to ask: "I wonder why the master suddenly came here?"

Tang Liang didn't know why the Fourth Prince came here at this time.

After all, they had just met the Fourth Prince half an hour ago.

Xie Jin smiled and said, "Let me introduce you to someone. This is General Weiwu. From now on, you will be one of us."

As soon as these words were spoken, Chen Ye and Tang Liang looked at each other quickly, and there were emotions in their eyes that only they could understand.

Chen Ye and Tang Liang spoke at the same time: "Greetings, General."

The mighty general said: "I will trouble you two gentlemen to give me guidance in the future."

Chen Ye: "Okay, okay."

Not being able to see Mr. Min, Xie Jin asked one more question: "By the way, where is Mr. Min?"

"Master, Mr. Min is in seclusion. He said he has discovered a treasure. I will tell you what it is after he comes out."

Tang Liang said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Xie Jin instantly guessed that Mr. Min must be researching the poison from southern Xinjiang. If Mr. Min could really figure it out, it would definitely be a great help to him!

When Xie Xi was infected with Mr. Min's southern border cold poison, didn't he look sick the whole time?

The poison attacks every month are enough to make him suffer enough. I'm afraid that in a few years, Xie Xi will have to report to the hell!

Although the poison has not been researched yet, Xie Jin has already thought about who to use it on.

Thinking of this, Xie Jin's mood instantly improved a lot. He raised his hand and patted Tang Liang on the shoulder, smiling and said, "Since Mr. Min is busy, this prince will not disturb him. When Mr. Min comes out of seclusion, please send someone to inform him."

Tang Liang nodded and said yes.

"General, go back first."

Xie Jin didn't want to stay here and disturb Mr. Min, so he thought about taking General Weiwu away.

Although General Weiwu was curious about who Mr. Min was, seeing that the Fourth Prince was in a good mood, he temporarily suppressed his thoughts and followed the Fourth Prince out of Changqing Courtyard.

After they no longer saw the Fourth Prince's back, Chen Ye and Tang Liang returned to the pavilion.

However, neither of them noticed that a dark shadow silently climbed over the wall of Changqing Courtyard.

In the blink of an eye, it disappeared.

At the same time, a secret letter was sent to the palace and placed on the desk where the Emperor of Li usually reviewed memorials.

Looking at the report in the secret letter, the Emperor of Li had a cold expression and his eyes were dark.

"Someone, summon His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the palace."

-

As night fell, the heavy rain during the day had gradually stopped.

Yan Ji was just about to take a bath when she suddenly heard a few knocks on the window.

Yan Ji immediately became alert and shouted coldly: "Who?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the window opened unexpectedly.

Yan Ji was startled and just as she was about to call for help, she saw another tall figure jumping in with a deep voice: "I heard that Princess Yan wanted to see this prince, so I came here."

"You? The fourth prince of Li?"

Yan Ji reacted instantly, and stepped back a few steps, leaning her back against the door. She listened to the maid knocking on the door. When she asked what was going on, Yan Ji said coldly, "No need to come in, just stay outside."

The maid guarding the door did not dare to knock again and quickly responded, "Yes, Princess."

With the help of the bright candlelight, Yan Ji could now see clearly what the man looked like. He was quite handsome, but it was a pity that he was the fourth prince of the Li Kingdom and could not be her male lover.

Yan Ji looked at him carefully before asking, "Do you have anything that can prove that you are the fourth prince of Li?"

"Token."

Xie Jin took off the identity token hanging on his waist and threw it to the Princess of Yan State nonchalantly, "Now, Princess, do you believe it?"

Yan Ji caught it, looked down, and threw the token back: "I didn't expect you to be the fourth prince."

Xie Jin hung the identity token on his waist again. The corners of his lips slightly raised, and he smiled wantonly: "I wonder what Princess Yan thinks of my cooperation?"

Yan Ji raised her chin and said, "Fourth Prince, please sit down first."

Xie Jin obeyed her and sat down at the table first.

Yan Ji also came over and sat opposite him, and said in a light tone: "Would the Fourth Prince like some tea?"

The tea in the teapot on the table had already gone cold. If one wanted to drink tea, one could only ask the maidservant outside to bring in some hot tea.

Xie Jin took a glance and refused: "No need."

This time, Xie Jin didn't want anyone else to know he was here except the Princess of Yan.

Xie Jin: "After discussing cooperation with the princess, I will leave."

"Princess, you should also know that the identity of this prince cannot be known to others."

Yan Ji nodded, "Okay, then tell me, is the cooperation true or false?"

"Do you really want to pull Xie Xi down?"

After all, the Fourth Prince and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are brothers from the same mother, and Yan Ji really didn't believe the words of that mighty general.

Xie Jin suppressed the smile on his face and said slowly, "Princess, you only need to know that this prince is determined to get that position."

"Xie Xi and I are both born to the Queen Mother. Why can he be the Crown Prince, but I can't?"

"As long as Princess Yan is willing to help me, I will definitely not let Yan suffer any loss when I get that position."

Xie Jin was very confident that the Princess of Yan would definitely not miss this opportunity.

After all, that is one-fifth of the land of the Kingdom of Li!

Yan Ji was indeed moved. Suddenly, she sneered, "Indeed, the Fourth Prince is right. If Xie Xi can be the crown prince, then you can be the crown prince too!"

"But I would like to add one more condition."

"What conditions?"

Xie Jin narrowed his eyes. If the Princess of Yan insisted on asking for a huge sum of money, how should he respond?

Yan Ji: "If you can really take that position, you can hand Xie Xi over to me for disposal, how about that?"

Xie Jin was silent and didn't say anything for a while.

He originally wanted to kill Xie Xi and then lead his troops to rebel. If Xie Xi didn't die, he was afraid that things would have taken a different turn.

But now the Princess of Yan is thinking about Xie Xi...

After waiting for no answer, Yan Ji's face suddenly darkened and she said in an unhappy tone: "You don't agree?"

"If the Fourth Prince is unwilling to agree to this condition of mine, I believe that the Fourth Prince's sincerity is not enough."

"Okay, this prince agrees to your terms."

Xie Jin said: "When that day comes, this prince will definitely hand Xie Xi over to the princess."

At worst, he would first depose his good second brother and then give him to the eldest princess of Yan State.

Yan Ji was satisfied, "Okay, let's sign the document first."

"Once the document is completed, I will send a message to my brother and will definitely help you ascend the throne successfully!"

Xie Jin: "Thank you so much for your kind words, Princess."

When he came here, Xie Jin had already brought the documents with him. Now that he saw that the Princess of Yan agreed to cooperate, he took out two documents, gave one to the Princess of Yan, and kept the other for himself.

Both documents were stamped with the Fourth Prince's personal seal.

Xie Jin: "Princess, please."

Yan Ji stood up, went to the bed, took out her private seal from under the pillow, then returned to the table and stamped both documents with the private seal of the Princess of Yan.

The documents have been signed and the cooperation has been finalized.

Xie Jin immediately breathed a sigh of relief and put away one of the documents.

The State of Yan is willing to lend 180,000 troops and is ready to take orders from Xie Jin at any time.

"Princess Yan, I will leave first."

After saying that, Xie Jin jumped out of the window again.

Looking at the documents on the table, Yan Ji wrote a handwritten letter to her royal brother who was far away in Yan State, and stuffed the document into an envelope.

She stood up, went over to open the door, and said to one of the round-faced maids, "Go, call a guard over."

"Yes, princess."

The maid turned and left, and after a while, she called a guard.

The guard bowed his head and said respectfully, "What instructions do you have, Princess?"

Yan Ji glanced casually and recognized that it was the coachman and guard who followed her when she went to Zui Xiang Lou during the day: "It's you."

Guard: "..."

Yan Ji handed him the letter in her hand and said: "Send it to Yanzi Cloth Shop and tell the shopkeeper to make sure it is sent to Yan State as soon as possible."

The guard responded, took the letter and walked out.

He subconsciously pinched the letter. It was a bit thick, but he didn't know what was written inside.

As soon as I reached the gate of the mansion, I saw General Li Zheng and his men coming in from outside.

The guard lowered his head calmly, called out "General", and continued to walk out as if nothing had happened.

Unexpectedly, General Li Zheng called out to him, "Wait."

The guard's back stiffened and he stopped immediately.

He immediately turned around and asked, "What do you want, General?"

Li Zheng lowered his head and glanced at him. He seemed a little unfamiliar.

"Why are you going out so late?"

General Li Zheng had previously guessed that the Luoyang Inn might be hiding the Emperor of Li's spies, so he sent someone to find another more remote three-story house and moved there.

It was also because this place was remote that General Li Zheng led his men to patrol the surroundings to see if there were any bad guys nearby. The eldest princess was a royal daughter with a noble status, and the bad guys must not be allowed to disturb the eldest princess...

The guard answered truthfully: "In reply to the general, the princess sent a subordinate to deliver a letter to Yanzi Cloth Shop."

"Swallow Cloth Shop?"

Li Zheng remembered that Yanzi Cloth Shop was actually a secret agency left by the eldest princess in Li State.

Previously, the princess had never thought of using Yanzi Cloth Shop, saying that this secret agent must not be discovered by the people of Li State. Why did she do it again this time...

Li Zheng suppressed the doubts in his mind. Since it was the eldest princess's order, there was no need for him to stop it.

"Forget it. Go ahead. Come back as soon as possible after delivering the letter. Don't stay outside."

"Yes, General."
