Reborn as a prince, achieve the pinnacle of power

When Young Master Chu heard this, his heart was shocked. He stared at Chen Mingtang with his eyes like sharp blades. After a long silence, he said coldly, "Do you think I will believe what you say?"

Chen Mingtang showed a bitter smile on his face and said softly, "I know it's not easy to get your trust, but I beg you to be patient and sit down and listen to what I'm going to say next. Then I'll send someone to investigate, and you'll naturally know whether what I said is true or not."

Young Master Chu stared at Chen Mingtang closely. After a long while, he finally nodded slightly: "Okay, but you have to remember one thing. Even if what you said is true, I will only spare Chen Lin's life, and you will have to bear all the other responsibilities."

"No problem. Ever since I made this decision, I have never expected to see the light of day again. As long as I can protect the only bloodline of my Chen family, everything is enough."

Chen Mingtang breathed a sigh of relief, and thanked with gratitude: "Thank you, General Chu, for giving Chen Lin a glimmer of hope."

Young Master Chu sat back in his chair, still staring at Chen Mingtang indifferently, and said stiffly: "No need to say more, just speak frankly, I am all ears."

Chen Mingtang whispered, "Does General Chu know Zhao Wenyuan?"

Young Master Chu frowned and thought, the name seemed unfamiliar to him.

Chen Mingtang looked at the changes in Mr. Chu's expression and knew that he might not know this person, so he explained: "Zhao Wenyuan and Mr. Chu are from the same generation and have retired for many years.

Back then, he and Mr. Chu, one in literature and one in martial arts, assisted the old man of the previous generation together... Before you returned to the Chu family, the Zhao family and the Chu family were two top families with equal power. And now the second generation of the Zhao family is also a figure who can be on par with Mr. Chu Yunyang at that time..."

Chen Mingtang's words made Chu Yuchen's face gloomy, and he gradually realized the importance of this matter.

The Chu family rose to power after a series of unexpected successes... However, where there are people, there is the world of martial arts.

Disputes are inevitable.

It's just that he hasn't been in the capital much in the past two years, and his father and grandfather probably didn't want him to be involved in court disputes too early, so he didn't know some secrets when he entered the Chu family halfway.

Young Master Chu listened to Chen Mingtang's words, and his face became more gloomy. Although he didn't know much about the power struggles in the capital, he also understood how complicated the interests and power struggles involved were.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then slowly said, "Give me the evidence you have, I will investigate and collect evidence. If everything is as you said, then your report will be considered meritorious."

"Wait a minute, I'll give it to you right away."

After Chen Mingtang finished speaking, he stood up, opened his suitcase, took out the diary, handed it to Young Master Chu, and said sincerely: "This records all my transactions with the Zhao family in Qing Province. You can send someone to investigate."

Chu Yuchen took the diary and flipped through a few pages. It recorded in detail all the major events that happened during Chen Mingtang's forty years as an official.

He couldn't help but feel emotional. This Chen Mingtang was indeed a meticulous person. He had been able to record his actions in a diary for forty years.

Major General Chu closed his diary, nodded, and said, "Very good, I will send someone to investigate. If the evidence you provide is true, I will recommend to the Supervision Department to consider reducing your guilt as appropriate."

Chen Mingtang heard this, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes. He quickly said, "Thank you, General Chu! I will fully cooperate with the investigation and will not hide anything."

Young Master Chu waved his hand without a smile on his face. He stood up, opened the door, and asked the two soldiers standing at the door to escort Chen Mingtang out.

After lunch, Mr. Chu returned to his temporary office, closed the door, took out a cigarette, lit it, took two puffs, picked up the phone on the desk, and called Chu Yunyang.

Chu Yunyang was on his way to Beijing Airport. Looking at his son's name on the screen of his mobile phone, he could not help but feel bitter. He answered the phone and complained:

"Son, you are now famous in Daxia! You even dared to lead troops to surround the residence of the frontier official and forcibly took him away. Now Qing Province is leaderless and the situation is in chaos. I, your father, can only rush over to clean up the mess for you and stabilize the situation."

Hearing his father's complaints, Young Master Chu's mood actually improved. He was silent for a moment, then changed his mind, a smile appeared on his face, and he said softly:

"Dad, you are the one who is capable and needs more work. When will we arrive in Qing Province? I will pick you up."

"Come on, I don't dare to trouble you, General Chu." Chu Yunyang smiled and replied. After thinking for a while, he continued, "I estimate that we will arrive around five in the afternoon."

"Well, I understand." Chu Yuchen raised his left hand and looked at the time on his watch. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile: "Don't worry, Dad, I will definitely be at the airport on time to welcome you, Master Chu."

"Okay, let's talk about it in detail when we meet. Let's not talk about it now...Except for your grandfather, our family will soon meet in Qing Province."

Chu Yunyang complained again and hung up the phone.

"Did mom come to Qing Province too?"

Young Master Chu muttered something, smiled, and said that business was more important, so he asked Wu Qingzhu to notify Lin Nan to come down to his office.

About ten minutes later, there were three knocks on the office door.

Afterwards, after Chu Yuchen said "Come in", the door was pushed open and Lin Nanxia, ​​dressed in a dark Zhongshan suit, walked in.

"Mr. Lin, sit down!"

Young Master Chu stood up, pointed at the sofa, and said in a friendly manner. He then instructed Wu Qingzhu, "Give Elder Lin a cup of tea."

Wu Qingzhu brought Lin Nanxia a cup of tea, refilled Chu Yuchen's and Chu Yuchen's cups with water, then turned and walked out.

"Mr. Lin, let's follow the old rules as in Guangdong Province. I will be responsible for arresting the people, but you will be in charge of how to interrogate them."

Chu Yuchen waited for Lin Nanxia to drink some tea and then said with a smile.

Lin Nanxia nodded. He understood what Young Master Chu meant. When they were in Guangdong Province, the two of them had divided the work and cooperated in this way. They had a tacit understanding and trust between each other.

"Okay, I'll do my best." Lin Nanxia said.

Young Master Chu smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Lin, there is only one thing. Regarding Chen Lin and Chen Mingtang, I hope you can preside over the trial in person."

Lin Nanxia was stunned. His years of experience told him that he needed to carefully think about the meaning behind Young Master Chu's words.

Lin Nanxia hesitated for a while and asked in a low voice, "Boss Chu, are they the two..."

"Perhaps, there are masters behind them. So, I hope that fewer and fewer people will come into contact with them."

Now it is very likely that the Zhao family is involved. Lin Nanxia is recommended by Chu Yunyang. Young Master Chu trusts him, but he is not very confident about other people.

He then added: "Neither of them can be transferred to the local authorities in the near future. They can only be transferred with my consent."

"I understand!" Lin Nanxia nodded quickly.

Although Chu Yuchen didn't say it explicitly, he also felt something unusual.
