“Boring. ”

Xu Bai yawned and walked back to his residence. It didn’t take long for him to return.

He had wanted to take a nap just now, but now he couldn’t. So, Xu Bai took out the book he got from the Ninth Princess and started to check the progress bar.

On the other side, the Seventh Prince hurriedly returned to his palace. As soon as he sat down, he quickly said to the surrounding people.

“What did you guys think of Xu Bai’s strength?”

The surrounding space distorted and soon, a few players appeared beside the Seventh Prince.

“This person is unfathomable. We can’t beat him. Just now, he discovered our tracks in a single exchange.”

When the Seventh Prince heard this, he clenched his right fist slightly and hammered the armrest of the chair with force, making a thud.

“You are the strongest experts under me. If I can’t even defeat you, how can I avenge my hatred?”

The few of them looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They didn’t say anything.

If they couldn’t win, they couldn’t win. They had nothing to say.

At this moment, the Seventh Prince’s expression became even more gloomy.

After a moment, a person dressed in plain clothes suddenly walked in from outside the door. He didn’t show any respect and came directly to the Seventh Prince.

“Greetings, Seventh Prince.”

Although he said that he had seen it before, he did not look like he had seen it before. He did not even bend his waist.

The Seventh Prince did not care about this young man’s performance. He waved his hand and let the few experts retreat. Only then did he look at the plainly dressed young man in front of him.

“The Prime Minister has twelve personal disciples. Which one are you?”

“Third.” “Your Highness, you can call me Wen Chengshu,” the young man in plain clothes said with a smile.”

“Why are you looking for me?” ” I don’t have any interactions with the Prime Minister.” The Seventh Prince’s expression was calm.” Could it be because of Xu Bai?””

Wen Chengshu didn’t hide anything. He nodded and said,””The Prime Minister knows that Your Highness and Xu Bai have a feud, so he sent me to help Your Highness.”

The Seventh Prince pursed his lips.” There’s nothing free in this world. Why do you want to deal with Xu Bai?””

“For the sake of the world.” Wen Chengshu didn’t hide anything.” Xu Bai was born in Jianghu. He can’t be put in an important position. Teacher said that Jianghu people can’t be trusted. Besides, Teacher was expelled from the

Qingyun Academy back then. Xu Bai was favored by the Qingyun Academy.

Teacher didn’t like it.”

His voice was calm, and there was nothing wrong with his face.

However, in this day and age, those who could hide their emotions were the most sinister and terrifying people.

“For so many years, the Prime Minister has always kept a clear distinction between public and private affairs. Even though many scholars are from the Qingyun Academy, they have never used any tricks.””Why do you want to deal with Xu Bai today?” the Seventh Prince asked.”

Even if the Seventh Prince was arrogant, it was just his personality. To be able to be a member of the royal family, he must have a lot of ideas and a certain level of intelligence.

Therefore, he quickly discovered that something was wrong and bluntly said it. This was also related to his character. If it was any other member of the royal family, they would definitely not say it and would only bury it in their hearts. However, the Seventh Prince was extremely arrogant, so he did not hide it.

“Your Highness, do you know why the teacher hasn’t changed after so many years and is still sitting in that position?”Wen Chengshu asked.

The Seventh Prince shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

Anyone who was familiar with the Chu Kingdom would know that the Prime Minister had fought alongside the Chu Emperor.

However, ever since he became prime minister, he had different opinions on many problems. He was direct and pointed them out in front of all the civil and military officials.

Many a time, when the Chu Emperor proposed some plans, he would also point out the inadequacies and would not beat around the bush.

The Chu Emperor was a person who cherished old friendships, but he wasn’t a fool. Some of the old people who had come with him that day had been greedy for pleasure after conquering the country. He had tried all means to remove them from their official positions and let them return to their hometown.

But until now, the position of Prime Minister remained unmoved, and no one dared to step over it.

The Seventh Prince was also very curious about this.

He had once seen in the royal study that his father had an argument with the prime minister. After the prime minister left, his father smashed his favorite antique to the ground and shattered it.

This showed that his father was very angry. However, he had never dismissed the position of prime minister.

He couldn’t figure out the reason.

“Because the Prime Minister has the ability. This is only one of the reasons. The second reason is that everything the Prime Minister has done is for the sake of Great Chu. He has no selfish motives. This is why His Majesty still trusts the Prime Minister.”Wen Chengshu said bluntly.

The Seventh Prince instantly understood. Everything that the Prime Minister had done since the establishment of the Great Chu State had indeed not contained any selfishness.

“Then why…To deal with Xu Bai?

“Because the Prime Minister believes that Xu Bai will definitely bring disaster to Great Chu.””He has already guessed what kind of reward His Majesty will give Xu Bai,” Wen Chengshu said.”

“What reward?” asked the Seventh Prince.’

Wen Chengshu opened his mouth, but he didn’t say it directly. He mouthed it very slowly, and the Seventh Prince saw it clearly.

The Seventh Prince stood up abruptly with an expression of disbelief.”lmpossible!”

“Then do you think there’s a better reward than this?”Wen Chengshu said..
