Chu Tianyu looked at the carriage going away thoughtfully.
He asked his servant, Fortin: "Did you see another person in the carriage just now?"
It is impossible for Ren Zilin to return to Beijing without permission. Who is that person
"Replying to the Second Prince, there was indeed a man, but I did not see his face clearly."
Chu Tianyu climbed onto the carriage: "Go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion!"
First go to your maternal grandfather's house and tell him that Chu Tiankuo has returned, and then go to the palace to tell your father.
Let the emperor know that he, the crown prince, has been away from the capital for several years, and now that he has returned, he did not immediately go to the palace to pay his respects to him!
Chu Tianyu thought of what Yao Zhengxian said, it is absolutely impossible that such a large amount of high-yield grain seeds were transported to Futai County without his people knowing, and he had people guarding it day and night!
Zhao, Jin, and Yan could not find out who sold them so many high-yield grains. The number of high-yield grains in each country is fixed! It is not difficult to find out.
That is to say, from the beginning to the end, Chu Tiankuo did not purchase hundreds of thousands of kilograms of high-yield grain seeds except for the 20,000 kilograms of high-yield grain seeds!
He and Ren Zilin only bought millions of kilograms of ordinary grain seeds.
These common grains were watched throughout the entire process from their purchase to their transportation into the government granary, so there was absolutely no chance of them being swapped.
No other types of grain were ever stored in the government granary!
All the high-yield grain seeds distributed to the people were taken from the government’s granary.
In other words, they are using fake grain seeds to fool the people!
Then Ren Zilin wrote a letter saying that they had obtained hundreds of thousands of kilograms of high-yield grain seeds and distributed them to the people in the county and neighboring counties!
My father also praised this matter well in front of all the civil and military officials in the court, and credited it with a great achievement!
What is Chu Tiankuo's purpose in doing this
He only thought of one thing, which was to seize this credit and hold the enthronement ceremony smoothly!
He hadn't returned to Beijing for so many years, but he returned as soon as he came of age. There was no movement for so many years, but he made such a big move as soon as he came of age, which further proves this matter!
He probably wanted to use this false merit to let his father, the emperor, officially hold the enthronement ceremony!
As for what to do if he is discovered in the future? This is not a big crime. The people got food and did not starve to death. Moreover, his move also turned countless illegal households into red deeds, encouraged land reclamation and increased farmland. His merits outweighed his faults.
Most importantly, he was once the emperor's favorite son. His maternal grandfather had a distinguished family background, and he was made the crown prince when he was born.
Even though the Marquis of Changping rebelled and the Queen was deposed, his father still did not depose him as the Crown Prince. He just despised him and was no longer as kind to him as before.
But his title of crown prince has not been taken away for so many years.
He has made up his mind that his father's favor towards him has not changed!
Once my father officially confers the title of Crown Prince on him, he will certainly not depose him!
Once the crown prince is established, he will not be easily deposed, otherwise it will shake the foundation of the country.
Chu Tianyu thought of this, and the corner of his mouth twitched, revealing a wicked and feminine smile: "Want to be officially named the prince? Dream on!"

After the carriage drove away, Chu Tiankuo said to Xingnong, who had been silent the whole time, "I'm sorry for keeping my identity from you."
He glanced at her, feeling a little uneasy.
He didn't want to hide it, but she hadn't asked any questions on the way to Beijing, and she wasn't curious about the people and things in her family, so he didn't want to reveal his family background.
When Lian Songbai occasionally talked about his brothers at home, she would ask a question.
He didn't even mention a word about himself.
Thinking of this, Chu Tiankuo's eyes were unconsciously filled with resentment.
Aren't you curious
Xing Nong was still wondering why he had to be inspected when he entered the city as the crown prince, but the other party, the emperor's younger brother, did not need to be inspected. Hearing this, he said, "It's okay. I didn't ask, and you didn't want to introduce yourself, right?"
Chu Tiankuo immediately asked after hearing this: "So, why didn't you ask?"
Xing Nong looked at him in surprise and said, "I thought your family background must be unusual, or difficult to reveal, so I didn't ask. Didn't you ask me either? Besides, what's the point of asking? You'll know when you need to know."
Didn’t he ask himself why he knew so much
A smile appeared in Chu Tiankuo's eyes. He didn't ask because he trusted her and didn't want to embarrass her.
It turns out she is just like me!
He didn't understand why he suddenly acted stupid just now!
"Well, you're right. But there's nothing you want to know." If she asked, he would tell her everything he knew!
All the supreme treasures have been shared with her, so what else can’t she know
Xing Nong knew nothing about the people and things in the capital, so he asked, "Since you are the prince, why do you have to be inspected when entering the city? The man just now didn't have to be inspected?"
Chu Tiankuo: "He is the emperor's favorite prince. The emperor has granted him special permission to enter the city and the palace without inspection. I am disliked by the emperor, so naturally I do not have this privilege."
There are some things that she will know in the future. Instead of letting her know from others, it is better to tell her yourself.
"Although everyone calls me the crown prince, it's just a habit. Because I was made the crown prince when I was born, and the emperor didn't explicitly say that he would abolish me, so everyone is used to calling me that. But the enthronement ceremony is scheduled to be held after I come of age. Until the enthronement ceremony is held, I can't be considered the real crown prince. This year I just come of age, but the enthronement has been shelved. This is because..."
Chu Tiankuo told the story of how the Changping Marquis's family had colluded with the enemy and committed treason, how the Queen was found to have an affair with a man outside her family, and how he and his elder sister, the Princess, were disliked by the Emperor. The Princess was then sent to marry a foreign prince, and how he was disliked by the Emperor, so he simply left the capital to look for evidence under the pretext of traveling around to study and inspect the people's sentiments.
"... ... The Marquis of Changping has been loyal for generations, and every male in the Marquis of Changping’s mansion died on the battlefield, dying for the country!
My grandfather spent his entire life in military service and made countless contributions to protecting the State of Chu.
With him around, no one could really invade the State of Chu for decades!
He once said that if he did not die on the battlefield and the world was at peace when he was old, he would die where he was stationed, forever guarding the border, the State of Chu, and the people. His military spirit is immortal!
The Changping Army, founded by generations of Changping Marquis, was brave and good at fighting and never afraid of death. On the battlefield, they were honored to sacrifice their lives to defend their country.
However, my maternal grandfather's family was slandered for treason and the entire family was beheaded in public. Those who were killed in the Changping Army were killed, and some were exiled.
I helped collect their bodies, but I couldn't even recognize them. Each of them had been tortured beyond recognition, blood and flesh were all over their bodies, and rotten vegetable leaves thrown by the people were all over their bodies...
He lived a life of loyalty and bravery, and even after his death he hoped that his military spirit would forever guard the frontiers. He was honored to have sacrificed his life to defend his country, but he died in such humiliation. "
“It’s a pity that I haven’t found evidence to clear their name all these years, and let those who harmed them get the retribution they deserve.” Chu Tiankuo turned his head and looked out the window, hiding the grief and guilt in his eyes.
Xing Nong glanced at him. It happened seven years ago. He just came of age this year. Seven years ago he was thirteen years old. He was just a big kid then. What could he do
At least in the past seven years, he has opened reception buildings all over the four countries, and Xingnong knows that he must have other plans.
She didn't know how to comfort people, and she didn't know how to comfort them. She thought of a sentence she often saw on the Internet in her previous life, and said: "Justice may be late, but it will never be absent. One day the truth will be revealed, and the evildoers will get the retribution they deserve."
Chu Tiankuo turned around and looked at her.
Xing Nong: "I believe you, and I can help you if you need it."
Chu Tiankuo felt warm in his heart, and his eyes softened a lot: "You will be able to see it soon."
See how he punishes the treacherous and vindicates the heroic souls!
After seven years, he is back!
He came back seven years ago to collect the bodies.
Seven years later he came back to claim his life!
