I am the Holy Poisoner, the Empress advised me to calm down

Although the prince had many complaints about Lin Chen at this moment, he did not dare to say much. After all, he was the princess's man. As long as the princess lived in this world, Lin Chen could live one more day.

If he rashly killed someone, he would be punished by the court, and then the old emperor would be even less likely to trust him.

It was precisely because of these reasons that the prince did not take action against Lin Chen.

No matter what, the prince would not give up the bigger fish just because of one or two people.

Everyone knows that you can catch a big fish by playing the long game, so the prince doesn't dare to act rashly at the moment, but it's because Lin Chen still carries the trust of many people.

If the trust of everyone is destroyed, the prince will be in trouble.

Lin Chen thought about it for a long time and felt more and more that these things needed to be investigated.

Although Lin Chen also thought about separating from the prince, the prince's conversation with him was just like that.

So what if you are in a higher position? You are still a dog in front of power, just a running dog working for power.

Lin Chen no longer wanted to care about what the prince did, but at this moment all the words spoken by the people came to his mind.

"Your Highness, why are you surrounding him? Could it be that you dislike him and want to destroy him?"

"But he also did a great job. He suppressed the rebels and returned with his army in great victory. He is also here in the city helping the people. The soldiers under his command are all working to help us ordinary people."

"So, Prince, you can't treat him like this. Otherwise, we will all see it. Your Highness, you must think twice."

The prince was also puzzled after hearing these words. Why did all the people help Lin Chen at this time?

It was as if the prince was an unforgivable criminal.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very unhappy, but he asked back.

"Why would I freeze Lin Chen? I was just trying to scare him so he wouldn't be so arrogant. He's the first one to act so arrogant in front of me."

After hearing this, the people thought for a moment and said, "So what? You've already angered him, so isn't it normal for him to fight back?"

The prince felt that he hadn't expressed his dissatisfaction, but suddenly glared at the people, "What do you mean? I spent all my effort to repair this bridge, and now you are blaming me and insisting on protecting Lin Chen, right? What kind of magic potion did Lin Chen give you to make you so concerned? He just built a bridge, why treat me like this?"

"I also built a bridge, why can't I be treated the same way?"

The prince seemed to be saying this with a sense of grievance, which made everyone feel very surprised. What was His Royal Highness the Prince thinking?

Until now I still feel that I am not wrong.

But Lin Chen found these words very funny. "Your Highness, you are really good at talking. You explained the matter so clearly, as if nothing happened to you."

Lin Chen didn't understand how the prince could say such hurtful words while flattering the people. "It seems that you really need the support of these people, but you don't protect them, so what's the point of saying this?"

Lin Chen hit the nail on the head in one sentence, but he wanted the prince to reflect.

Reflect on what you have done to make these people so dissatisfied.

It's not just Lin Chen who dislikes the prince. Many people now dislike His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The prince felt very embarrassed when he heard these words. He thought that all his hard work had paid off, but this was the result. Of course he felt unhappy.

The key point is that after Lin Chen appeared, everything became turbulent, disrupting the situation he had originally set up. Therefore, the prince was very suspicious about who Lin Chen was. Although he was just a small servant, the prince felt that he was not simple.

Lin Chen's strategies and personality do not seem like those of a simple commoner. Rather, he seems like a master who was carefully designed and arranged by someone.

Therefore, the prince felt that it was necessary to investigate Lin Chen to see what exactly Lin Chen had done to cause all this to happen.

The prince was already unhappy, and he felt that Lin Chen was being unreasonable.

He called all the people over and said, "Lin Chen has messed up my business. I was originally telling you that the bridge construction is going to be normal and that everyone will be given money, but he interrupted you. Do you still want the money?"

The prince simply felt that he had given everything, and he couldn't help but deny it. After all, he was also like this. He saw the needs of the people. Although he didn't care about their life or death, the trust of the people was equally important to him.

The prince was very dissatisfied and asked Lin Chen, "If you think you are better than me, can't you just build a bridge? You don't have much money. I have as much silver as I want. What can you give me?"

The prince felt that Lin Chen was not capable enough and that he relied on the princess for many things. If it weren't for the princess, Lin Chen wouldn't be where he is today. So the prince smiled very unkindly, "Don't you have the princess behind you? If you were to be separated from the princess, you would be nothing."

Lin Chen didn't get angry after hearing this. He just calmly looked at the Crown Prince and slowly said, "You are the one in power, so you are naturally noble. But I am just a small retainer. Are you going to deprive me of the right to work hard?"

Lin Chen was very confused. He didn't do anything wrong. It was the prince who was confronting him. He just forgot that he had offended His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Lin Chen was a person who easily forgot things, and at this moment he felt a little embarrassed. After all, he had dealt with too many things in recent days, so he got confused.

Although Lin Chen knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince might not agree with his opinion, the Crown Prince was also very busy and tired at the moment.

The prince has been handling matters in the city recently, so he hasn't paid much attention to the developments in the palace.

However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also knew that the Princess's people were already preparing to arrange something, but what it was was not yet known.

So the prince calmly walked away from Lin Chen, avoiding his sight, and said to the people, "Look at this Lin Chen. He has been making sarcastic remarks since he came here. Has he ever considered that we are distributing money, not talking nonsense?"

The people were still somewhat tempted after hearing this, after all, everyone cared about distributing money.

Can I refuse the money given by others?

So the people said a few words to Lin Chen, "Lin Chen, you should go ahead. I believe there are still many things in the city that need your help. Your soldiers are helping. The prince wants to give us money, so we should take it first. After all, we need the money, don't you think?"

Since these people are urging him to leave, Lin Chen doesn't want to stay here any longer. He nodded and said, "Then I'll leave now. I hope they can give you a lot of money."
