As soon as the second prince and Chu Chu left the restaurant, they boarded the carriage that had been waiting for a long time.

There were only two people in the spacious carriage, but Chu Chu still felt a little crowded.

She hung her head and was not in a good mood.

The second prince glanced at her, thinking that this might be his destined person, he comforted her: "Chuchu, I can't blame you for this, don't take it to heart."

In fact, Chu Chu also knew that there were some things that could not be said, the second prince was listening next door, and could hear the hesitation in Chu Chu's words.

But there is no way, Chuchu and Yang Wenxi are sitting face to face, already nervous, thinking not to make Yang Wenxi suspicious, but at the same time, she has to follow Yang Wenxi's words, don't leak flaws, she obviously doesn't have the kind of Yang Wenxi who can easily change the subject Kungfu, therefore, isn't it just that Yang Wenxi can only ask questions and she can answer them.

Chu Chu sighed, and said: "I was too negligent. I didn't make any preparations before, so..."

When she was in contact with Yang Wenxi in the past, she didn't think that this person was so difficult. No matter what she said, Yang Wenxi would usually just nod and agree. Therefore, Chu Chu didn't take today's matter to heart at the beginning. She just felt that she was here to have a meal and ask a few questions, and there was nothing to be nervous about.

But as soon as Yang Wenxi came and the two of them sat down, Chu Chu felt a sense of oppression from Yang Wenxi's body just as soon as he opened his mouth.

At this point, Chu Chu knew that today's task was not easy.

But her ability to adapt to changes is quite limited, even if she knew it was not easy, she had no other choice but to bite the bullet and sit down.

Although Chu Chu was full of annoyance at the moment, she also found a way.

The situation is settled.

The second prince sighed and said nothing.

He is not in a good mood now, and feels a little aggrieved.

He is a prince, when did he have the experience of bumping into walls everywhere now?

Being able to hold back his anger is all due to his self-cultivation, as for comforting others?
I really don't have that energy.

The two went back to the inn in silence. Shen Shangshu and others were waiting in the lobby on the first floor. When they saw the two coming back, they rushed to greet them.

In the end, before asking, Shen Shangshu's heart became half cold when he saw Chu Chu's drooping head.

It doesn't seem to work.

The expressions of everyone behind him also showed disappointment visible to the naked eye.

In comparison, Jing Xing really had the prettiest complexion, and he even had the leisure to drink tea.

The second prince and Chu Chu went upstairs one after another. Shen Shangshu sighed several times in anxiety, and waved the crowd to disperse.

The next day, just as Shen Shangshu was about to no longer find another way, but to follow the old rules and directly connect with the Yangzhou government, the second prince suddenly came over dressed neatly.

"Second Highness?" Shen Shangshu couldn't help frowning when he saw his grandly dressed appearance, "You are..."

The second prince's expression was gloomy, and he said: "Shang Shu, go and bring the prefect of Yangzhou back, I want to see him in person."

Last night, he was lying on the bed, more and more aggrieved.

This was the first thing I came out to do, but I hit a wall everywhere. If this matter is reported back to the capital, I don't know how many people will poke their spines and laugh at it!
If the eldest prince also took this matter to the emperor and talked about it, wouldn't his impression in the emperor's heart plummet?

Not worth the candle!

Therefore, the second prince decided to use thunderous methods instead, and beat the prefect of Yangzhou first.

Coincidentally, Shen Shangshu also thought so.

Seeing that the second prince thought of the same place as himself, Shen Shangshu hurriedly said "Hey", and then left with his subordinates who had already put on official uniforms.

A group of people arrived at the prefect's office in Yangzhou almost aggressively.

At this time, the magistrate of Yangzhou had been worried for several days, fearing that they would suddenly come back to find him,

He saw that Shen Shangshu and his party hadn't come to him for so long, and thought that he probably wouldn't come back today. As a result, when he was drinking tea leisurely, the doorman suddenly ran in scrambling and said that Shen Shangshu A group of people arrived.

At the moment, the magistrate of Yangzhou was almost choked to death by a sip of tea.

Coughing violently, he intermittently ordered the doorman to invite him to the front hall, so that he could wait on him.

Those are all nobles from the capital, and there is even a minister among them. As long as they perform well, they may be transferred back to the capital.

As soon as his cough subsided, he trotted all the way to the front hall.

"Your official, Chen Shuo, have met Shen Shangshu!" As soon as Chen Shuo entered the door, he cupped his hands and bowed down.

Shen Shangshu raised his hand impatiently, and said: "Get up, I came to see you today for a serious business."

"Oh?" Chen Shuo walked to the main seat and took a seat while talking, "I don't know when Shen Shangshu even made a trip in person?"

When Shen Shangshu heard this, he sneered in his heart, and said: "Prefect Chen, you have been in this prefect position for a long time, but you can't even control a small Yang family, and you have caused such a big trouble for the court! Now, His Highness the Second Labor has actually come in person! Look, this is all a good thing you did!"

"Oh, where did you say that!" Chen Shuo hurriedly stood up, "Shen Shangshu, when the humble official came to Yangzhou to take office, the Yang family was already there! This is not raised by the humble official! !"

If he really picked it up with one hand, why would he be so miserable?

Money can't be earned, and there is no respect. Whose official treats him like this?

Shen Shangshu glanced at him, and said: "Why, the Yang family can develop to its current scale, isn't it because you are cowardly and incompetent?!"

As soon as he said this, Chen Shuo immediately shut up, not daring to defend himself.

He could tell that Shen Shangshu came here today to vent his anger because there has been no progress in the past few days!
So what else could he do.

Shut up.

Save Shen Shangshu annoyed for a while, he can't bear to walk around.

Seeing that Chen Shuo was finally being honest, Shen Shangshu snorted and said, "Forget it, I didn't come here today to make you unhappy. To tell you the truth, it was the Yang family who were too rampant and angered the Second Highness. Your Highness called me over today, and let you go over and talk."

"What?!" Hearing this, Chen Shuo almost jumped up from his chair. He wiped a layer of cold sweat from his brow and stuttered, "Second, when did the Second Highness come into contact with the Yang family?" ah?

Ouch, Shen Shangshu!Tell me about this, you come here, what are you going to do, don't tell us, just ask us to cooperate, why did you go directly to the Yang family? ! "

There was something wrong with his reaction.

Shen Shangshu's old eyes narrowed, but a few gleams of light burst out of them, as if he was about to see through Chen Shuo: "Why, what is the second highness doing, and I have to say hello to you? You can still be the second highness's master." No?"
