Remember what I just said to you, remember your original aspirations, just like the four words I left on the stone at the entrance of the academy, down-to-earth, do it. When you are ready, I will make your efforts worthwhile.

"This is true for you, for everyone."

After Li Chen finished speaking, he raised his hand and patted Fu Minqing and Zou Chenglong on the shoulders before turning and walking away.

He still has a long way to go, having wasted more than two hours here. He must set off as soon as possible.

Fu Minqing and Zou Chenglong watched Li Chen's back, their eyes filled with excitement. Suddenly, Fu Minqing mustered his courage and spoke: "Your Highness, would you stay for a bowl of red potato porridge we personally grew"

Li Chen stopped and smiled, "No need. I have other matters to attend to and can't stay long. Keep this bowl of sweet potato porridge for me. When I return, you can bring it to me."

Fu Minqing and Zou Chenglong saw Li Chen onto the carriage, then the convoy began to move forward.

Two people suddenly knelt down at the edge of a field by the road, bowing their heads in farewell.

Not until the convoy disappeared from sight at the end of the road did they get up.

Zou Chenglong said to Fu Minqing, “Fu brother, how do you feel now”

Fu Minqing clenched his fist and said, “The previous heavy despondency has vanished completely. I have no more qualms about Xu Ge ascending to power. At this moment, I only feel my blood surging with passion. I would gladly lay down my life for Your Highness, shedding blood for the sake of the Great Qin. In this life, I will dedicate myself wholeheartedly to the prosperity and stability of the Great Qin nation, until my death!”

Zhou Chenglong took a deep breath and said, "I feel the same way as you. Although Your Highness didn't say anything grandiose or sugarcoat the harsh realities of court life, I felt incredibly moved. Instead of being discouraged or annoyed, I think this kind of prince is even more worthy of my loyalty and devotion."

The carriage swayed and rattled, but Li Chen sat inside feeling quite pleased.

When they reached Tongzhou County, they should have arrived two hours earlier than planned to rest before reaching the next stop. However, due to the delay, Li Chen decided to find an inn in Tongzhou and stay overnight.

Li Chen had just settled in when someone entered the inn's kitchen. A large ingot of silver was slapped onto the shopkeeper's face, and several men in embroidered uniforms brandished their swords, forcing the chef aside. Then, a cook arranged by the Jinyiwei took over, preparing the evening meal for his Highness with absolutely safe ingredients.

At this moment, Li Chen was in his room reading the latest news just delivered from the capital by the Jinyiwei.

Although he was not in the capital, he had to know everything about it. The daily reports of intelligence had to be complete and without fail.

After quickly skimming over several unimportant pieces of intel, Li Chen lingered his gaze on one in particular.

Zhang Bimu met with Zhao Xuanji and Fu Yuzhi at a restaurant, talking for an hour and a half. What they discussed remains unknown...

Li Chen looked at the brocade-clad guard captain kneeling slightly before him, his expression full of respect. He asked, "Has Zhang Biwu taken any other actions after returning"

That Qianhu immediately replied: "Zhang Biwu went home after passing a pickle shop on his way back, buying two jars of pickles before returning to his residence. He has not been seen by anyone else since then, and our informants within Zhang Biwu's mansion have reported no suspicious activity."

As for that pickle shop, we checked it out. It's been open in the capital for decades and is a well-known brand. Zhang Biwu loves their pickles and has been eating them for many years; everything seems normal.y the imperial decree, who dares to disobey From now on, if anyone moves again, don't blame this general for being ruthless.""Left and right!"Su Zhenning roared.At the scene, the Imperial Guards simul...
