Bondage

"What Miss Song said is exactly what she said."

Shen Qianyu said: "I wonder what Miss Song can do?"

It is already difficult for him to survive in the cracks of the harem, and he has just had room to stand up in the past two or three years, so he has never been able to truly enter the center of the elite in Shangjing.

This made Shen Qianyu very passive.

In the past, the third and fifth princes were still young, and he still had time to make careful calculations, but now it seems that both three and five are in danger, but the situation is actually more stalemate than before.

The eldest prince has been deposed, the third prince's appearance has been ruined and he has no chance of becoming a great prince, and the fifth prince has injured his leg, but once he recovers from a broken bone and walks normally, the throne can be said to be secure.

His background was not as high as Shen Qianshu's, and he had experience as a hostage in Nanqing, and the imperial court was even more ashamed of him.Furthermore, he has no possessions and no supporters behind him, so it is not an exaggeration to call it a fantasy if he wants to turn himself around.

If not, he would not have asked a woman for help.

"Those who don't know the prince, how did they make friends with the children of the aristocratic family in the past?"

Shen Qianyu said: "It's nothing more than eating meat and drinking together, Yu Hualou..."

Thinking about Song Wan's old-fashioned character, Shen Qianyu swallowed the words for fear that he would make her uncomfortable by saying that he would go to Hualou to listen to the music.

"It's just that the money is spent on such things, but the harvest is small."

Song Wan hooked her lips and smiled slightly: "This is impossible."

"If I'm not mistaken, in the past, the prince used to be the host to entertain those dudes, right?"

"Exactly."

"The prince's thinking is not wrong, it's just that the noble son of the aristocratic family doesn't play like this."

Song Wan smiled softly: "There are particulars about being an host. How the superior should treat the subordinate, how to set up the banquet, and the seats are all discussed. And the prince's people put themselves in the position of the lower knot from the very beginning. In this way, if the banquet Those aristocrats wouldn’t notice if they didn’t come up with some blockbuster tricks.”

"For them, being able to come to the banquet is already a great reward, and the rest will not be given much, let alone make friends."

Shen Qianyu's brows were slightly furrowed, and the expression on his face was three points upright.

Seeing that he didn't despise women, Song Wan said softly: "How to play, how to play is very particular. Whoever brings into the game, who do you want to make friends with in the game, why you make friends, why you make friends, what you want is the same Whether the forces behind the people can be contrary to each other, the pros and cons of each family must be carefully calculated."

"The high-ranking people should not invite the banquet easily, and the low-ranking people should not invite each other easily. How the high-ranking people invite and how the low-ranking people invite is all knowledge."

Shen Qianyu savored Song Wan's words carefully, breathing slightly short.

He is most annoyed by the rules of Lao Shizi's family and the favors.

"I want to play together with the son of the Shangjing family, eating and drinking."

Song Wan lowered her eyes slightly, recalling what those rich dudes like to play.

"Take watching dances and listening to music as an example. It depends on the wind direction in the palace. If the nobles in the palace listened to the pipa music and praised it a lot, then you should listen to the pipa music more when you go out during this period of time."

"Why is this?"

Song Wan said: "Tell people that you know the news in the palace."

Shen Qianyu instantly understood Song Wan's meaning.

People who can know the inside story of the palace, especially these trivial matters must have some status, at least they can talk to the palace, if there is such a move in the game, it will definitely attract people of the same status.

The identities are far and near, high and low, and those who understand the situation naturally get together immediately.

Shen Qianyu gave Song Wan a complicated look.

"Writing has wine orders, word orders, playing chess and watching flowers, Wu has ice hunting, Cuju, throwing pots, hooks and chuiwan, etc. You must understand and be proficient in these."

"Knowing how to play and playing well means that the person is from a noble family and has a wealthy family, and playing elegantly means that the poetry and books in the family are not comparable to merchants."

The more Shen Qianyu listened, the more serious his complexion became.

Ever since he could remember, he has been worrying about whether he can survive the next day, so why did he know these things?He thought he hid it well, even with only the gold and silver saved by Duan Yiting, he could do whatever he wanted in Shangjing.

But he didn't expect him to know that in the hearts of those noble children, he is just a clown.

Shen Qianyu was about to say that he didn't have time to study these things, so Song Wan said in doubt: "It's just that this method is only suitable for Xu Xu's self-cultivation, and it is not suitable for the prince to make friends with courtiers."

"It's useless even to make friends with a few aristocratic families in the East Palace. Why doesn't the crown prince directly place his own people in the court? It's better than making friends with those anointed and rich hakamas, right?"

Shen Qianyu glanced at Song Wan, for some reason, Song Wan could see a bit of sadness in it.

She pursed her lips slightly, her starry eyes slightly rounded: "Why?"

Shen Qianyu was expressionless: "The prince made friends with these people in order to place people in the court."

Before he was fledgling, Shen Qianyu didn't dare to reveal his identity at will. If he didn't know the situation of the Song Mansion clearly, he would never admit Ji Rong's identity with Song Wan.

So apart from Dongchang, there was no one in the court who stood up for the prince, and they almost forgot that there was a prince in the East Palace.

"Why bother?"

"Do you have a way?"

Song Wandao: "The father-in-law is from Dongchang, does it mean that the power the crown prince relies on is Dongchang?"

"Yes."

"I have an idea, father-in-law and listen to it."

Song Wandao: "Prince, you can let the people of Dongchang find important officials in the court, and let them be loyal to the master of Dongchang."

"I do not understand what you mean."

"At the moment, no one knows who the owner of the East Factory is, and there is no need to say it in the future, nor can it be said."

Shen Qianyu raised his eyebrows and immediately understood what Song Wan meant.

She taught him to cheat.

Borrowing the name of Dongchang, the courtiers put on a ship named Sanwu Prince, which is actually the East Palace, and first fulfill the request of the East Palace, so that the use of strength will not reveal his identity, but can achieve the goal.As long as it is not something that can affect the overall situation of seizing the throne, no one will question Dongchang's position.

They didn't dare to go beyond Dongchang and ask their true loyal masters about those innocuous little arrangements.

And once he resumes his status as the prince in the future, as long as Dongchang reveals his true allegiance to the master, those who are already on board will recognize it even if they don't want to.

Shen Qianyu only felt ecstatic, and didn't think that this woman would help him solve the problem that had troubled him for a long time with just a few words.

"Miss Song is a great talent. If she is a man, she will be able to be a general and a prime minister, and she will help the world."

Song Wan pursed her lips and smiled, showing a little bit of embarrassment.

Shen Qianyu became interested, and said again: "According to what Miss Song said, when do you think it is most appropriate for the crown prince to tell the world that there is still a master of the Eastern Palace?"

"Now that the fifth prince's injury has not healed, my daughter feels that the prince should keep a low profile. If Shen Qianshu is really disabled, the prince can win without fighting in the future."

"At present, Concubine Jiang's focus is on protecting the fifth prince's safety and recovery, and the prince can also take advantage of this period of time to moisten things silently and act in the name of the fifth prince."

This is exactly what he thought.

Thinking of a few more people, Shen Qianyu secretly wondered where they should be arranged.

While he was thinking, Song Wan said: "When the crown prince regains his status, he still needs to prove his virtuous talents to the world. Only in this way can he deter the courtiers and make them be willing to serve the Eastern Palace."

Hearing this, Shen Qianyu closed his eyes and remained silent, thinking carefully about what he had done since he went to Nanqing as a proton until today.
