I'm a useless prince, so what if I know a little bit of chemistry?

"Chun Fang doesn't know. You have to find out all this yourself, my Lord."

Chun Fang rubbed Lin Fan's temple and spoke softly.

Lin Fan felt his head was in a mess. The beam that looked like a pool of stagnant water seemed to be surging with undercurrents.

How many secrets are there that Lin Fan doesn’t know or understand?

Lin Fan couldn't figure it out, and didn't want to think about it anymore.

There were some things Lin Fan had to do.

"Chun Fang, how is the recruitment preparation going?" Lin Fan closed his eyes and enjoyed Chun Fang's massage.

I have to say that Chunfang's massage technique is very good. Coupled with the girl's soft body and Chunfang's unique body fragrance, Lin Fan feels comfortable.

"Brother Xiang has already gone to make arrangements. I heard that quite a few people are already here." Chun Fang opened her red lips and said gently.

"If there are refugees, let Xiang Long recruit them first."

Nowadays, there is war everywhere, and there are natural disasters in some areas, so there are naturally many refugees.

There are also benefits to recruiting refugees.

On the one hand, it can increase Lin Fan's reputation among the people.

On the other hand, refugees are much cheaper than ordinary young and strong people.

"Chun Fang understands. The Marquis is really kind-hearted." Chun Fang nodded and praised Lin Fan's behavior.

"His Majesty has issued an order. Please accept it, Your Highness." Hailong shouted outside the courtyard.

Why is there a will?

Lin Fan didn't know what Emperor Liang intended to do, so he took Chun Fang, Heisha and others out to receive the order.

Seeing Lin Fan's appearance, Hai Long knew that this was also Lin Fan's first time to receive an imperial decree, and said softly: "Prince, just kneel down and listen to the decree."

"Your son will receive the order." Lin Fan responded and knelt down waiting for Hailong to announce the order.

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims, today..."

Hailong kept talking a lot, but Lin Fan was confused. After a long while, he still couldn't figure out what Emperor Liang was going to do.

Lin Fan felt like a long time had passed before he heard Hai Long change the subject and said, "I have specially summoned Lin Fan to the palace tomorrow to have him decipher the poisonous smoke of Yan State. There must be no mistakes. I decree this."

Lin Fan finally understood that after all the talk, the result was that he was asked to explain the matter of the poisonous smoke.

"Thank you, Eunuch Hai."

Lin Fan took the order with both hands, and before he knew it, a gold bar slipped from Lin Fan's hand into Hai Long's sleeve.

Hai Long's eyes lit up, and he held his hands in a familiar manner, whispering to Lin Fan, "The eldest prince must be prepared, there may be a great happy event."

Lin Fan nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Moreover, even if Lin Fan asked further, Hai Long might not say more.

"What does this great thing mean?" Lin Fan frowned. He didn't think that the good thing Hailong mentioned was a real good thing.

Born in the palace, Lin Fan doesn't believe what others say easily.

The imperial palace is a huge whirlpool. If you are not careful, you will be doomed.

Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"Father, can my eldest brother do it?" Lin Rui asked.

"Don't always target your elder brother. You two brothers should love each other." Emperor Liang taught with his hands behind his back.

"I understand clearly. I am also afraid that if my elder brother goes alone, I will fail to live up to the trust placed in me by our father." Lin Rui said with a wry smile.

"Hmph, don't think I don't know what you are planning."

Emperor Liang snorted coldly.

Hailong lowered his head and walked in.

"Your Majesty, the decree has been delivered."

"Well, Rui'er, you step aside first." Emperor Liang waved his hand and said.

"My son, please retire."

Lin Rui bowed and respectfully left the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Emperor Liang turned his back to Hailong and asked, "What did Faner say?"

"The eldest prince just accepted the order and did not ask any further questions." Hailong said with his head lowered.

"Oh? Is that really the case?" Emperor Liang said calmly.

Hailong was so frightened that he trembled and quickly knelt on the ground, lowering his head deeply.

"This old slave deserves death. This old slave deserves death."

"Hmph, don't think that I don't know what you did. If you do it again, there will be many people eyeing your position as the commander of the Imperial Guard."

Emperor Liang turned around and stared at Hailong coldly.

"Yes, yes, I know I was wrong."

Hailong didn't dare to breathe and could only kowtow repeatedly.

Hailong took out the gold bars and presented them with both hands: "Your Majesty, this is the gold bar awarded by the eldest prince."

"Take it, and go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get another ten taels of gold."

Emperor Liang walked to the front of the table and said calmly.

Hailong kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Go down."

"Old slave, please retire."

Hailong then got up from the ground, lowered his head and slowly backed out of the door.

After going out, Hailong found that his back was already wet.

But he didn't dare to have any extra thoughts, he just felt cold all over.

After beating the sea dragon, Emperor Liang was lost in thought.

Just now, Lin Rui suggested that Lin Fan should recruit the Shen family, and Emperor Liang was quite tempted.

As the largest merchant family in the world, if they could gain the loyalty of the Shen family, it would be a hundred benefits with no harm.

"Forget it, let Faner try it first." Emperor Liang made up his mind and began to review the memorials.

Guangling City, Shen family.

"Miss, you can't go in. You really can't go in! The master of the house is holding a ceremony inside."

"What is it to you? Stupid Luo Fang!" Shen Qingqing rolled her eyes at Luo Fang who was blocking the door, stuck out her tongue, and pretended to force her way in.

"Miss, this is not possible! The head of the family said that no unimportant people are allowed to enter." Luo Fang stopped Shen Qingqing and insisted not to let her in.

"Insignificant? Humph, Luo Fang, the head of the family is my father, am I an insignificant person?" Shen Qingqing pouted and said with dissatisfaction.

"I……"

Luo Fang was speechless and didn't know what to say.

"Luo Fang, let Qingqing in."

A deep voice came from the room.

"Did you hear that? My father let me in, get out of the way!" Shen Qingqing glanced at Luo Fang proudly and strode in.

There were several old men sitting in the room, and they all smiled when they saw Shen Qingqing walk in.

"Dad, Second Uncle, Third Uncle." Shen Qingqing greeted them and sat in an empty seat.

"Qingqing! You're already an adult, why are you still so disrespectful?" Shen Qingqing's father, Shen Tiancheng, the head of the Shen family, said dissatisfiedly.

"Tiancheng, Qingqing is still young. Come, Qingqing, sit here with Third Uncle." Shen Luo said with a smile.

"Third uncle is the best." Shen Qingqing smiled and acted coquettishly.

"Qingqing, the Emperor of Daliang sent people to recruit us. What do you think about this?" Shen Zhan said in a deep voice.

"Daliang? This is not Daliang's territory, why bother with them?" Shen Qingqing said disdainfully.

"Qingqing, you are also aware of the current situation in Jiangnan. Sooner or later, it will belong to Daliang. Our Shen family has to prepare in advance."

Shen Tiancheng sighed. He knew his daughter's personality very well, but she was a little too eccentric.

"Then it depends on their sincerity. If they are not sincere, why should we join them?" Shen Qingqing said calmly.

Several people looked at each other, and it seemed that there was no other way.

"That's it." Shen Tiancheng nodded.

"Dad, I just learned how to cook a new dish. Can you help me try it?" Shen Qingqing smiled and said happily.
