Princess Medical Doctor

Chapter 942: Guidance, gains and losses

The most exciting thing in the Central Empire today was the kidnapping of the Seventh Prince. This matter was supposed to be a secret of the Imperial Family, and only a few ministers in the court knew about it. However, for some unknown reason, it became known to everyone. Many people were talking about this in the streets and alleys.

"Let me tell you, the Eldest Prince is useless. He has wasted ten thousand taels of gold. He is really like a meat bun beating a dog, and he has taken advantage of those gangsters."

"It's not just once or twice that the Eldest Prince has acted recklessly, you should have gotten used to it by now. The Eldest Prince loves to show off and be competitive. He only thinks about doing meritorious deeds, but he has no regard for the dignity of the Central Empire or the lives of ordinary people like us. One hundred taels of gold, how much silver will we get from this?"

"The Eldest Prince is indeed incompetent. Didn't he come back after suffering a big loss in the East? Three martial gods died. I heard that many black-armored guards also died, and a lot of black iron armor was lost. Those things were snatched away by the prince of a small country."

"I heard that the Eldest Prince also redeemed the prince of the East this time. He should not care about the life and death of the prince of the East. He is just a small prince. If dares to show his authority in front of our Central Empire, then he's something."

Many people were talking about this matter in the restaurant and inn. They were all talking about the fault of the Eldest Prince. Occasionally, a few people said that the Eldest Prince’s move was the most appropriate, but they were immediately scolded by others.

Everyone has a mentality of blind obedience and is inherently risk-averse. In this case, even if they approve of the Eldest Prince in their hearts, they will not say it with their mouths. Therefore, everyone will attack the Eldest Prince one-sidedly.

"The Central Empire is something, they even dare the prince dares to calculate." Lin Chujiu listened a few times and couldn't help but shake her head.

In terms of mentality and means, the Eldest Prince was far behind the Third Prince. The Third Prince not only speaks out in the court and directly targets the Eldest Prince, but he also holds the public opinion in his hands and constantly guides the people.

“The capital is different. Let’s go to the tea house opposite.” After listening to the words of the people in the city, of course, they should listen to the words of the scholars and the young masters of the noble families.

Only by knowing oneself and the enemy, you can win every battle. If they want to help the Eldest Prince with advice, they must first understand the Third Prince.

The two of them came out of the restaurant, walked to the tea house opposite, and asked for a private room.

They have no other choice. Most students don't like to sit in the lobby, and they all sit in private rooms as long as conditions permit. The sound insulation in the private rooms was good, but when those students talk high, they don't pay attention at all. Each one's voice was louder than the other, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu could hear them even if they didn't want to hear it.

“The Eldest Prince did not lose unjustly. He can only act but not speak. So what if he does well?”

“The Eldest Prince is one step away from the final chess piece. If he can catch the bandits, nothing will happen to the Third Prince.”

“If the Eldest Prince didn't go away and not busy himself rescuing people, instead busy himself gathering power, the Third Prince can't do anything to him.”

“In the final analysis, the Eldest Prince is still not strong enough to rescue people with sympathy and catch the bandits.”

"Perhaps the Third Prince had made arrangements. Otherwise, how could the Third Prince be so cautious and easily caught by the bandits? I think this is most likely true. It was the Eldest Prince's recklessness that ruined the Third Prince's plan.”

"……"

Different from the common people in the city who all support the Third Prince, these students still have some brains and can at least analyze something. They will not follow blindly, but they will be guided by public opinion to some extent.

Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu spent the whole day listening to the news in the tea house, eating a lot of tea and snacks, until sunset, the two of them returned to the inn together.

It was a little late when they came back, but the clerk at the inn didn't say anything and welcomed them in politely. Only when they entered did they realize that after Hua Jinrong left, many people came to see them, most of them were the Eldest Prince's cronies. The officials in the same lineage were all minor officials, so there was no need to meet them.

"If anyone comes tomorrow, tell them that we are going to Hua Family so that they don't have to wait." Although they didn't want to see those people, after all, it was other people's territory. No matter how dissatisfied they were, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu will not say it directly, but……

No one in this world was a fool. As soon as Xiao Tianyao said these words, smart people would understand what they meant.

They don’t want to see people, so if they can help, it is best to send people away. If they can’t, there’s nothing they can do.

The inn's manager nodded his head indicating that he understood. Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu were easygoing. Seeing that the inn's manager was willing to help, they casually rewarded them with a handful of broken silver.

Although the Central Empire was rich and the people were also rich, no matter how rich ordinary petty officials were, they could not compare with the princes of a country. What's more, who in the world has a lot of spare money?

Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu were generous, and these small officials were naturally willing to support them and do everything for them.

No matter where people were, money could open the way, and there was no doubt about this.

*

Early the next morning, before Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu had packed up, the clerk at the inn came to tell them that the Hua Family's carriage was waiting outside.

It has to be said that the Hua Family gave Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu a lot of face. Not only did their eldest son come to the inn to support Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, but they also sent a carriage to pick them up, all of which showed their support for them. The attention of Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu.

Of course, Xiao Tianyao was in Lin Chujiu’s favor, and the only person the Hua Family was truly grateful to was Lin Chujiu.

The Hua Family came to the door and sent a carriage to pick them up. They did it openly and did not hide it. Anyone who paid attention to the Hua Family's actions would know that. The seven major families in the Central Empire were used to staring at each other to see what other families were doing. They can't afford to be left behind.

The people around them didn’t think much about it when they saw this and just thought that the Hua Family was grateful. However, when the Imperial Lin family learned that the Hua Family was interested in Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, they couldn’t help but think more about it.

When Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu were traveling to go to the Hua Family, the Lin Family was having a headache about whether to recognize Lin Chujiu.

“Master, is the news sent in the East reliable? Is Lin Chujiu the child left behind by Xiao Liu?”

"Who knows, Xiao Liu was forced to die back then. He hated the Lin family and was wary of the Lin family. Even if he had blood alive, he would not tell his family."

"Then are we going to recognize her or not? It didn't matter at first. We have bloodlines on the left and right. We don't have any use for her. But look at the attitude of the Hua Family towards them. If we recognize her, we can get help from the Hua Family."

If it were in the past, the Lin Family would not take a fancy to the Hua Family. They were both among the seven great families in the Central Empire, and the Hua Family was just a little better than them and not worthy of their favor, but……

It was different now. The Hua Family has become an in-law with the Dongyang Family, the first great family in the Central Empire. The status of the Hua Family greatly changed, so……

As for the people that the Hua Family values, they also need to consider how much Lin Chujiu could be of help carefully, and if she will help their Lin family……
