General Su Zheng was preparing to go to war in these few days. The entire court was filled with excitement and cheers, thinking that victory was imminent and that they could defeat the damn Wei State immediately.

But the old emperor was unwilling to go out since his last court meeting. He was bedridden and was always worried about someone plotting a rebellion.

At this time, the Prince's Mansion was crowded with people, and there were more people coming than last time.

They were all discussing how Su Zheng would definitely win a great victory this time. "But Your Highness, your plan doesn't seem to be like this."

The prince smiled coldly after hearing this.

"My plan is to support General Su Zheng with all my strength and win the battle of Tianmen Pass. Then, I will make Princess Su Yan fall into the abyss and be unable to extricate herself."

"Does Your Highness have any brilliant ideas? Tell us."

But Crown Prince Su Feng was stunned for a moment, then he slowly said, "There is no clever plan, but there is a vicious plan."

"Didn't a new retainer come to the Princess's Mansion last time? It was none other than Lin Chen."

"He knows a lot of wicked schemes, and I've asked him for advice. He hasn't told me the essentials yet, but I'll see him again later."

"But let him come up with some advice so that the gold medal can't be given away for nothing." Everyone laughed when they heard this. "Your Highness the Crown Prince is really magnanimous, giving away the gold medal as well. But is that person really reliable?"

When these people asked this question to the Crown Prince Su Feng, he spoke hesitantly.

"But he's obsessed with money. My only hesitation is that I have no idea where this guy comes from."

"But he's very opportunistic towards everyone, seeing money and power. This guy is easy to use, and the wicked schemes he offers are also very useful. It's just that they won't work until they're used. If this guy becomes unstable at that time, we can just get rid of him."

"After all, we can't take these people of unknown origin lightly," Crown Prince Su Feng thought over and decided to discuss with these people. "My fellow counselors, I don't know Lin Chen's background, but I've heard that he's very good at offering strategies. If I can use him, then dealing with the princess will be a piece of cake."

However, the wasp beside the prince suddenly said, "He's actually lying in ambush next to the princess. Why not act as an assassin? On the one hand, he can get information about the princess, and on the other hand, he can contact the prince's mausoleum. Isn't that the best of both worlds?"

After hearing what Hornet said, Prince Su Feng was also embarrassed.

The Wasp he trusted actually wanted this guy to be a spy.

If he is found guilty, the reputation of Crown Prince Su Feng will be in jeopardy.

After all, the prince is controlled by Lin Chen, and the princess is also trying to gather information from him. If she finds out anything, won’t the whole thing collapse?

"Your Highness is wrong. Letting him be a spy, as long as we don't spread the news and diminish his reputation, actually, not many people know him."

"We also learned about Lin Chen's existence through inquiries, and the same goes for others."

Thinking of this, His Royal Highness felt a little more relaxed. He turned to look at Huang Feng, one of the counselors, and asked him, "Huang Feng, do you think Lin Chen can be used by me? The news of Su Zheng's expedition has spread throughout the Qin State."

"If Lin Chen can still stir up trouble with the princess, then what if you gain something for nothing?" Huang Feng immediately understood the prince's meaning and asked him, "What you mean by gaining something for nothing is to find out the princess's background, right?"

Crown Prince Su Feng nodded quickly and said, "That's exactly what I mean. Huang Feng, let's go and find out about this man's background and what he did in his early years. If he has any ulterior motives, we will eliminate him immediately. After all, he is just a person close to the princess."

"The princess doesn't really care about this matter. If Lin Chen causes any trouble, no one will actually care."

Seeing that the prince did not take Lin Chen's life seriously, the other counselors smiled and said knowingly.

"This is simply a small follower doing something for us. Once his value is squeezed out, he will have no value anymore." When he said this, Prince Su Feng thought of something. If the people in this city knew that this plan was proposed by Lin Chen, what would happen if it got to the ears of His Majesty?

"He will then kill this person immediately. He will no longer be of any use to us and will not pose a threat to us."

The prince thought that the princess had suddenly come up with so many strange ideas during this period, which made people wonder who came up with them.

Now I realize that this is Lin Chen’s style.

After clarifying the matter, Crown Prince Su Feng also had some doubts and asked Huang Feng, "Why did the princess take the initiative to ask my general Su Zheng to go to the battle recently? She didn't even argue with me about the expedition. This is really strange."

Everyone was silent when Prince Su Feng expressed his doubts.

But they were all surprised for a moment before they spoke.

"Indeed, this princess used to compete with you, but this time she doesn't care about anything."

The prince became a little nervous after hearing this and said, "Could it be that she has a more far-reaching plan? She sent my generals to the battle, but she didn't do anything. Could it be that she wants to cause trouble while we're away?"

The prince's worries were also linked to the doubts in these people's hearts. Although they felt that this matter was difficult to resolve, the expedition was a foregone conclusion.

I believe these people won't cause any trouble in the face of a major war. Furthermore, the so-called expedition is scheduled for tomorrow.

Crown Prince Su Feng's movements were still unknown. He first issued a notice within the city, urging all citizens to participate if military support was needed. They should offer the food to the people instead of hiding in silence. If the military ran out of food, they would be unable to fight.

When the people in the city heard the news, they were all stunned and said, "As expected, the villain from Wei State has finally attacked. It will definitely take some effort to capture Tianmen Pass."

"However, General Su Zheng will surely return victorious this time."

"With Su Zheng's strength, it's no problem to take down the Wei Kingdom, okay."

As these people spoke, they had some considerations in their minds. According to Lin Chen's suggestion, it was estimated that the princess would be in trouble again.

"Your Highness, you must be prepared. If that villain comes up with a new plan, it will put you in an irretrievable situation. That would be disastrous."

What they said made sense. Lin Chen was indeed an unfathomable person.

I don’t know how he came up with those vicious plots to stir up all this trouble.

The prince thought that was true. Lin Chen was able to sort out so many cases and make it look so lifelike this time.

He must have some abilities, but he just doesn't say it.

The prince talked about these things and delayed with these counselors for a long time, but it was time to go to war soon, so everyone dispersed.

They all gathered at the city gate to watch General Su Zheng leave the city.

On both sides, there were people who were jubilant, as if they had seen the moment to pursue the victory, but some people said gloomily, "This is still an unknown."

"It may take time to win," some people said dissatisfiedly, "What do you know? If Su Zheng takes action, he will definitely succeed immediately. Everything will definitely be settled."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sighed after hearing these rumors.

There are too many people gossiping recently.
