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

The Fourth Prince's Mansion.

In the study, two people played chess.

The fourth prince Xie Jin played the black piece and placed it on the chessboard slowly. He narrowed his cold eyes and looked at the man in brocade robe sitting opposite him. He said slowly, "Ali, who do you think will end up in this mess in Jiangnan?"

Yan Li, who was called Ah Li, smiled softly, picked up the white chess piece and followed closely behind, "Who can guess what the emperor is thinking now?"

"Besides, this matter is of great importance, and the Emperor must spend some time to select the right person, but..."

After a pause, Yan Li's eyes flashed with surprise: "Ajin, you are not thinking of going to Jiangnan?"

Yan Li was the third son of Yan Zhongqing, the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites. He held no official position and was just the fourth prince's childhood companion.

Yan Li had also heard something about the Jiangnan bribery case at home. He heard that the emperor wanted all the ministers to recommend themselves, but no one in the court dared to respond.

Before coming to the Fourth Prince's Mansion, Yan Li overheard his father talking to his mother in private: If it weren't for the fact that he was busy with the Ministry of Rites and couldn't leave for the time being, he would definitely write a letter in person, requesting to go to Jiangnan to search for evidence.

"I do have this plan."

In front of his study partner, Xie Jin did not hide his ambition at all: "Jiangnan is a rich place. If there is a chance to carve out a territory from it, I think no one would want to let it go."

"Besides, there are still no one of ours guarding Jiangnan. I always feel a little uneasy."

After hearing about this matter at the morning court today, Xie Jin knew that his chance to place people in Jiangnan had come.

In Shengjing, with his second brother, the Crown Prince, there, there were many things he could not get involved in, for fear that his second brother would find out and ruin his important plans.

Even when placing secret agents in the dark, Xie Jin could only use the method of eating, drinking and having fun everywhere, and then slowly place his people in some useful places, collect information, and pass it in...

Hearing this, Yan Li frowned slightly, a look of worry on his face. Now he and the Fourth Prince were in the same boat, and he would unconditionally obey any decision made by the Fourth Prince.

He will only be well if the Fourth Prince is well.

But this time, the muddy water in Jiangnan is not so easy to get involved in.

"Ajin, do you want to reconsider it?"

After a pause, Yan Li suddenly thought of someone: "If Ah Jin insists on going to Jiangnan, I can recommend someone to Ah Jin. If Ah Jin brings this person with him, he will definitely be able to solve the Jiangnan issue smoothly."

"Oh?"

After hearing this, Xie Jin immediately became interested. After dropping the black piece in his hand, he asked, "Who is Ah Li talking about? How could Ah Li be so sure?"

Yan Li placed the last white piece on the chessboard, forcing the black piece into a desperate situation, and then he said slowly: "It's my old acquaintance, Meng Huaijun."

Xie Jin looked down at the chessboard and suddenly laughed.

"Ali, are you doing this on purpose?"

Yan Li would never admit that he had deliberately distracted His Highness's attention. He smiled modestly and said, "It was just a coincidence. I was slightly better."

"That's all."

Xie Jin took back the black spot, but inexplicably felt that the name Meng Huaijun was somewhat familiar, "Ali, have you mentioned Meng Huaijun in front of me before?"

"Once."

Yan Li suddenly sighed, "I asked you to go to Zui Xiang Lou a few days ago just to let you and Meng Huaijun get to know each other."

"At that time, Huai Jun was still attending a literary gathering in Zui Xiang Lou. I thought that even if I didn't tell him, given Huai Jun's talent, when you went to Zui Xiang Lou and saw him, you would definitely go up to him and get to know him."

"But I never thought that you actually arrived at the door of Zui Xiang Lou but did not enter the Lou."

Yan Li couldn't help but feel regretful.

Although Meng Huaijun was his old friend, he didn't know where Meng Huaijun lived at this time.

There was no residence in Shengjing where Meng Huaijun could stay for a long time, so Yan Li often couldn't find him.

It was Yan Li who guessed that Meng Huaijun would definitely be interested in the literary gathering, so he rushed to Zuixiang Tower to meet him.

"Zuixianglou, Meng Huaijun..."

Xie Jin repeated it several times, and inexplicably felt that something was not right in his heart. He always felt that he seemed to have lost something very important at that moment.

But he couldn't say it for a moment.

Xie Jin pursed his lips, a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes: "That day, my second brother sent someone to guard Zui Xiang Lou. As soon as I arrived, I was invited to my house by my second brother."

Yan Li was speechless for a moment.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now."

Xie Jin waved his hand and said, "Ah Li, what ability does Meng Huaijun have? Why are you so sure that you can solve the problem in Jiangnan by bringing him with you?"

"Ajin doesn't know."

Yan Li said: "Meng Huaijun once stayed in Jiangnan for five years."

"During these five years, he has saved the lives of two people. One of them was working for the Governor-General of Jiangnan, and the other was the wife of the Governor of Jiangning."

"Huai Jun has some other connections that I don't know about. However, with just these two people, is A Jin still afraid that he won't be able to overthrow the Jiangnan officialdom?"

I have to say that Meng Huaijun is really lucky when it comes to making connections.

This information was found out by Yan Li when he was planning to get to know Meng Huaijun and was looking into his past. Yan Li had to spend a lot of effort to find out.

Now that I think about it, this information is really useful to the Fourth Prince.

Xie Jin didn't expect that Ali would recommend such a useful person to him.

Xie Jin couldn't help getting excited when he thought that with Meng Huaijun, he could use this opportunity to place his own people in Jiangnan, but he soon calmed down.

Xie Jin leaned over and patted Yan Li on the shoulder, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "Ali, this is really thanks to you."

"Ajin is joking."

Yan Li raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Even if I am not here, there will be others who will give advice to Ah Jin."

After getting along for many years, Yan Li naturally knew that the Fourth Prince had many capable people under him. Even if he had not pushed Meng Huaijun forward, the Fourth Prince would still be able to solve the Jiangnan bribery case, it would just take more time.

Xie Jin couldn't wait to meet Meng Huaijun, and even more wanted to win him over to accomplish great things together: "I wonder where Meng Huaijun lives? Can Ah Li make some arrangements? I want to meet Meng Huaijun in person."

Hearing this, Yan Li showed a bitter smile on his face: "Ajin, this matter will have to wait a little longer."

Xie Jin: “Why?”

"Huai Jun never likes to stay in one place for a long time. Since I saw him in Zui Xiang Lou that day, I have never seen him again. I don't know where Huai Jun lives now."

Yan Li frowned and continued, "I still have to find out Huai Jun's whereabouts. If I know where he lives, I will immediately arrange for Ah Jin to meet Huai Jun."

Xie Jin did not embarrass him, and nodded in response: "Okay, I'll leave this matter to you."

"it is good."

Yan Li agreed.
