Chapter 284

Naturally, Chen Jia would not want to help the third prince to the throne of God by relying on a thin Hou house. He's been planning and waiting. It takes time.

Although he was trapped in the Qianyi temple, his eyes and ears were not blocked. He has been paying close attention to the relationship network of the imperial palace. Over the past few months, he has touched the relationship in the inner courtyard of the deep palace.

Among the four princes in the palace, except for the three princes who live in the Qianyi hall, the residence of the other princes is not far from the emperor's bedroom. In terms of position, the emperor did not favor anyone. The princes have grown up, but they have not granted the king or land. Obviously, the emperor wants to investigate their character and select future princes.

Xia Houjie, the fifth prince, lives in Haoran hall. He is weak by nature and has no ideas. He is a typical spoiled child. His mother Lin Zhaoyi is the direct daughter of the Minister of household. The Ministry of household holds the financial power of the great Xia state, commonly known as the Royal money bag. The Minister of household must have made a lot of money, which can be seen from Lin Zhaoyi's generosity. The fifth prince himself should not be interested in the throne, but the forces behind him pushed him forward step by step. The third prince is critically ill. If he dies, he is the eldest son. It is natural to establish himself as a prince.

Xia houwu, the seventh prince, lives in the Mingxin palace. Unlike the fifth prince, he is obviously ambitious for the throne. He is the most active one, whether in the former dynasty or in the harem. Xia Hou's martial arts man is just like his name. He likes to make great achievements and kill at will. If he is a little unhappy, he will put the slaves around him to death. It can be said that he is the most inhuman of the princes. In Mingxin hall, bloody corpses are often carried out wrapped in straw mats in the middle of the night, which is frightening.

The most inhuman of the seven princes was born to a virtuous imperial concubine, a woman with the highest rank in the harem and the greatest influence in the previous dynasty. Behind the virtuous imperial concubine is Lu Zhenpeng, the current left prime minister, who is subordinate to most of the forces of the imperial court. If the seventh prince can't wait for the throne, he can grab it. It's just that they don't want to be accused of Patricide and regicide as a last resort.

As for Xia Houyuan, the ninth prince, his temper is unpredictable. He lives in Jixian hall. On the surface, he is the most humble and polite. He often follows the seven princes and seems to follow him. However, according to Chen Jia's observation, Xia Houyuan actually has deep eyes and is very tolerant. The seventh Prince's biological mother is only a Jieyu. According to the Convention, the woman who gave birth to the prince should not be so low, because the virtuous imperial concubine has been suppressing their mother and son. Tong Jieyu was originally a housemaid married by the virtuous imperial concubine. Later, she was promoted by the virtuous imperial concubine to serve the emperor. Only then could she have today's status.

Chen Jia has carefully studied the mind of Princess Xian. Maybe Princess Xian brought up Tong Jieyu just to consolidate her position in the harem. The prince born to Tong Jieyu is more like a spare chess piece to her. Once something happens to her own son, she can push the ninth Prince out to take the blame and retreat, and she can support the ninth prince to God to maintain her position, The modest approach shows the woman's ambition. There was no Empress Wu before the history of the Daxia state. If Princess Xian knew that there was a female emperor in history, I'm afraid she would prefer to ascend the throne of God herself.

In his mind, the relationships in the palace had become a huge net, and the mechanism affecting the net lay outside the palace, on his "friend".

On this day, Chen Jia still stayed in the warm room at night. The sound of the night knocked three times. Chen Jia opened his eyes from his bed.

The curtain of the big bed moved, and Xia Houyu reached out and lifted the curtain of the bed - Zhong Liqing said he would introduce someone to him tonight and told him not to sleep at night.

Their eyes met in the dark candlelight. Chen Jia nodded to Xia Houyu. They sat side by side in front of the table. Later, a cat barked under the window lattice. Chen Jia quickly got up and pushed a small crack through the window.

Little white turned the window and jumped in.

His body was wide, his shoulders were wide and his legs were long, but his face was still young, especially a pair of eyes. When Xia Houyu looked at him, he felt that his eyes were extremely pure, as if he had been washed by the royal jelly of the immortal family and not stained with fine dust. If he hadn't been dressed in black, Xia Houyu really thought he had seen the fairy.

After Xiao Bai turned in, he stared at Xia Houyu for a moment, frowned and muttered, "how did you become so thin?"

Xia Houyu was stunned. He had always been very defensive, but in the face of this person, he was born with a sense of closeness. He repeatedly stared at each other and confirmed that he had never seen him.

Xiaobai stopped talking, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it all at once. It was obviously tired.

Chen Jia closed the window and introduced them.

"This is the third prince."

Xiaobai winked at Chen Jia, saying that he knew everything. Chen Jia looked back at him and warned him not to be too naughty.

"This is a friend I made in the Jianghu. His name is Xiaobai." Chen Jia introduced to Xia Houyu.

"Xiaobai?" Xia Houyu read the strange name again, thinking about what nicknames people in the Jianghu have, and didn't ask any more.

Chen Jia said: "this little white has extraordinary ability. With his help, we can't hide the events of the previous dynasty from our eyes and ears."

Xia Hou Yu looked at the young young man and cast a suspicious look: "young master, I don't know what's outstanding?"

Chen Jia replied, "he knows animal language."

Xia Houyu was surprised: "animal language?"

Chen Jia just learned about this before she came to the world on this mission.

Xiaobai was born in the orc world and was born with the blood of a divine beast. In addition to the orc world, Xiaobai has done two system tasks with Chen Jia. One is the fairy world. Xiaobai pretends to be his spirit beast. He can communicate with the beast family and is taken for granted by Chen Jia; The second time was on the imperial planet of the South extension Federation. During the whole mission, they had little chance to see animals, so Chen Jia didn't know that he could speak animal language.

For this ancient mission, Chen Jiaben decided not to bring Xiaobai, but Xiaobai suddenly grabbed him and said, "I can speak animal language. I can help you in the ancient world."

Chen Jia asked him in surprise, "do you know animal language? It means that you can understand the language of all animals?"

Xiaobai replied, "of course, it's the kind of intelligent animal. I certainly don't understand the language of caterpillars!"

"What do you mean by intelligent animals?"

"I can communicate with animals that have coexisted with humans for a long time, such as ordinary cats, dogs, and poultry, such as cattle and sheep." Xiaobai raised his chin. "Think about it. Should the ancient world take me?"

Chen Jia hesitated and asked, "what about martial arts? Can you do it?"

Xiaobai replied, "it's nothing to fly over eaves and walls. I don't need you to learn less from the system."

Chen Jia said, "what nonsense do you say? This ancient world can't live without you!"
