Chapter 334: Is Your Majesty not afraid that his merits will overshadow the master

Lin Mo is an important official in the Ministry of Works. The Ministry of Works is responsible for construction, and the Imperial Capital is the most important of all.

For example, some better real estate, building materials, food supply chains, etc., all fall within the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Works.

If Jiang Rong and Li Sining want to open so many shops in a short time, they will mostly need the help of the Ministry of Works, which means establishing connections.

As long as Lin Mo investigates carefully, he can indeed find some names.

Hearing him say this, Wei Manying's eyes lit up, and she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Her body, which was fuller than that of her peers, leaned forward slightly, the cleavage on her chest appearing and disappearing in her low-cut dress, and she said, "You mean, we can take this opportunity to connect with the palace? But the problem is, how do we do it?"

The corners of Lin Mo's mouth rose slightly, and he took over the conversation calmly, saying, "To achieve this, naturally, one cannot be too deliberate. With your connections in Shanghe City, you can completely open branches in the south, which is franchising."

This sentence is enough to show that Lin Mo is very smart. Anyway, merchants are not interested in anything without profit. As long as it is for the sake of making money through franchising, the other party will not suspect the purpose of the visitor.

The Wei family that Wei Manying opened in Shanghe City is a commercial family. Although it was only for cover, it indeed has a certain amount of industry.

After making up her mind, the anger she had just felt was swept away, and she was in a much better mood now.

Wei Manying was also slowly laying out her plans, and she hadn't actually told Lin Mo about many things.

Because the Dragon Emperor's tomb had already been dug up, according to reliable information, the Dragon Emperor was mostly already unable to be resurrected.

Then Wei Manying and the other high-level remnants of the previous dynasty were discussing the next step of the plan.

They gradually realized the importance of a certain person, and that was Li Chen.

Originally, the May Tian Ce Dynasty had been turned into a muddy mess by the remnants of the previous dynasty. It could be said that there were strong enemies lurking outside, vassal kings partitioning the land inside, imperial princes fighting for power and profit, court officials fighting in factions, and those big families also had evil intentions; it was as chaotic as it could be.

The Yuan family of the previous dynasty was just thinking about waiting for the May Tian Ce Dynasty to completely erupt into civil strife, infiltrating it, and supporting their own people to take power.

At first, they succeeded, murdering the Crown Prince and the former Emperor.

But ever since Li Chen took power, this chaos had been gradually resolved by Li Chen. Those remnants of the previous dynasty, who used to be able to move normally in the Imperial Capital, were now all like rats crossing the street.

Therefore, Wei Manying and the other remnants of the previous dynasty calculated that they must get rid of Li Chen.

As long as Li Chen dies, then the Second Prince and the Third Prince will make a comeback, and by then, the May Tian Ce Dynasty will continue to be in great chaos.

There is no way around it; the Second and Third Princes really cannot deal with Li Chen.

There is also a key task here, and that is the Fourth Prince, Li Ji. Li Ji has already returned to the Imperial Capital to be active and has also made quite a few military achievements, recently following the Prince of Zhennan on an expedition.

If Li Chen were to die, Li Ji would probably take the opportunity to rise up.

There is no way around it; Li Xian and Li Yu were crippled by the Emperor and are still surviving and developing.

Wei Manying is good at using beauty to bewitch people, so she could appropriately make contact with Li Ji when the time comes, and it would be best if she could control him.

This time, the remnants of the previous dynasty have calculated everything they could calculate.

What they need to do now is to find a way to make Li Chen lose his life, and perhaps this time is an opportunity.

"Have you met the Prince of Anxi, Li Ji?"

Wei Manying suddenly asked, leaning over toward Lin Mo, the faint fragrance from her hair wafting toward him.

"Li Ji? I've had a few meals with him, he's not bad, and Seeing Xiao Ming knows him too. Why?"

Lin Mo pretended to be quite natural, like someone who wasn't interested in beauty, pretending he hadn't seen or smelled anything.

This kid is very savvy. If he were as attentive as Seeing Xiao Ming, Wei Manying would deliberately keep her distance. Only by pretending to be cold and aloof would Wei Manying approach him and give him some sweetness.

"Nothing, it's just that his reputation has been good lately. Is Your Majesty not afraid that his merits will overshadow the master?"

"It is absolutely impossible for you to provoke this point. Li Ji is a guy without ambition, and he just wants the Emperor to give him some errands to do. Whether it is the Western Expedition or this time following the Prince of Zhennan, he is actually just slacking off."

Regarding these matters, even if Lin Mo didn't deliberately inquire, just listening to his colleagues chat made it very clear.

To become an official in the court, one must definitely understand some trends.

Hearing him say this, Wei Manying felt that Li Ji was indeed a good chess piece.

She certainly couldn't control the Second Prince and the Third Prince. As long as Li Ji took power, in order to stabilize the court, he would definitely have to support his own forces, and then Lin Mo and Seeing Xiao Ming would definitely be promoted.

As long as these people were in her grasp, then overthrowing the May Tian Ce Dynasty would only be a matter of time.

Lin Mo looked at Wei Manying and said, "I know your thoughts, but Li Ji listens very well to the Emperor. As long as there is trouble, he will go to the Emperor. Approaching him rashly is not a good thing."

He guessed that Wei Manying wanted to contact Li Ji, but he didn't guess that Wei Manying wanted to murder the Emperor.

After the last incident with the Dragon Emperor, Wei Manying wasn't someone who dared to say everything out loud.

"Don't worry, I won't go personally."

Among the remnants of the previous dynasty, there are quite a few beautiful women.

Wei Manying already had three chess pieces by her side. As a master of time management, she didn't have too much time to deal with Li Chen and Li Ji.

She definitely had to arrange for others to go, especially for Li Chen.

It is said that Li Chen likes beauties. As long as she connects with the hot pot restaurant, she can arrange for beauties to get in.

Using the method used to deal with the former Emperor to deal with Li Chen, she didn't believe Li Chen wouldn't die.

Those beautiful ones had already gathered from all directions.

This time, Wei Manying wanted to control the entire dynasty!

The idea was good, but there were still 'tasks' to be done now.

The day before yesterday she ate with Fang Qian, yesterday with Seeing Xiao Ming, and today it was definitely Lin Mo's turn.

As the saying goes, rain and dew are shared equally. Even if Lin Mo knew more of the inside story, she still had to maintain ambiguity, making Lin Mo aim for her, so that Lin Mo could work wholeheartedly.

Don't look at Lin Mo as smart, but in terms of dealing with women, he was still played to death by Wei Manying.

In his eyes, Wei Manying trusted him the most, and the other two were just chess pieces.

Little did he know, he himself was also a chess piece, just a more important one.

At the same time, Li Chen had already arrived at the Ministry of Personnel government office.

Since he had said he would handle it personally, he naturally wouldn't break his promise.

The conflict between the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Justice was caused by young key members. He wanted to see what kind of ability these two young people actually had.

"May I ask if you are here for registration or review?"

Fang Qian was burying his head in processing official documents and asked without raising his head when he heard footsteps.

When he looked up and saw the person clearly, the writing brush in his hand fell onto the desk with a "clatter," and ink splashed all over him.

"Your humble servant Fang Qian, pays respects to Your Majesty!"

He knelt down in a panic to pay his respects, his voice even trembling a little.

The surrounding colleagues heard the words "Your Majesty" and immediately knelt in a row, the entire Ministry of Personnel office area falling into dead silence.

Li Chen looked at Fang Qian, who was kneeling on the ground, and was slightly stunned: "So it was you."

He recognized him; wasn't this the sword cultivator who almost lost his life at the Sword Discussion Assembly?

At that time, he had saved him casually, but he didn't expect that he was now an official of the Ministry of Personnel.
