Chapter 519: Watching Brothers Kill Each Other
Xiao Jincheng only needs to try every possible way to get rid of Xiao Yanan, why bother with sowing discord!
It’s simply unnecessary!
In fact, the emperor had never really thought of giving the position of crown prince to Xiao Jincheng.
As long as Xiao Jincheng takes action against Xiao Yan'an, he will investigate it thoroughly and Xiao Jincheng will not be able to escape death.
He wanted Prince Huaiyang to watch his two sons kill each other!
This is what happens when you dare to plot against him!
"Chao Sihai, go and secretly remind Xiao Jincheng to take action as soon as possible and not let me down!" The emperor couldn't wait to see the result.
"Yes." Chao Sihai responded immediately.
When he walked into the imperial study, Chao Sihai couldn't help but glance at the sachet on his body.
"What a pity for the Crown Prince's wife." He sighed heavily.
……
When Xiao Yan'an returned home, Ji Chuhe told Xiao Yan'an that Xiao Jincheng had come to her to sow discord.
Xiao Yan'an didn't react, and the expression on his face didn't even change much. He didn't believe that Xiao Jincheng would change.
If Xiao Jincheng really gave up the position of Crown Prince, he would not have left Huaiyang. What's more, he has now become a person secretly cultivated by the emperor.
The emperor trained him for only one purpose, to deal with them.
"It would be a bit abnormal if he didn't come to stir up trouble." Xiao Yan'an replied casually, picked up the teapot and poured himself a glass of water, drinking it silently. Halfway through the drink, he seemed to realize something.
"Why would he go to such lengths to sow discord between us?"
"Yeah, why bother?" Ji Chuhe did not answer directly.
Xiao Yan'an pondered it carefully again.
"Last time, I escaped death in Funing. The emperor will definitely not give up the idea of getting rid of me. Xiao Jincheng suddenly appeared and approached me. I suspect that he came to kill me. Why did he do such a disgusting thing? Wouldn't it be better to just attack me directly?"
Ji Chuhe still didn't speak.
Xiao Yanan could only continue to guess, "It seems like he wants to please you..."
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Xiao Yanan's mind, and he angrily threw the water cup on the table.
"How dare he have such dirty thoughts about you!" Xiao Yan'an stood up and paced back and forth in the room. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became!
"Why doesn't he take a piss and look at himself? How dare he covet you? He doesn't think he can replace me and still dream of becoming the prince! Once he becomes the prince, he can covet you! He really dares to think so!"
"Don't be so angry, Prince. It's not worth it for such a person. Let's think about how to get rid of him before he takes action."
"Madam is right."
"Sir, once you have booked the pleasure boat, our first step of the plan will be complete. Next, we will have the second step. Many caravans will arrive in the imperial capital one after another. I asked my mother to spread the word that we need a large amount of goods, which attracted many caravans to the imperial capital, including my mother's caravan."
"Madam, the emperor once sent people to investigate mother's caravan."
"Don't worry, my lord. Although the emperor has sent people to investigate, it is impossible to send people to monitor the caravan all the time. The caravan is always on the move, and it is impossible to monitor it all the time. Moreover, over the years, mother's caravan has been changing, the personnel have been constantly reorganized, and they have deliberately mixed in with so many caravans. Except for our own people, outsiders have no way to distinguish them."
Xiao Yanan breathed a sigh of relief, "What's next?"
"The prince is extravagant and spends a fortune on courtesans. Do you think I, as his wife, will be very angry? What should I do if I don't want my husband, a prodigal, to continue spending like this?"
"I understand! Ma'am, I completely understand your plan."
Ji Chuhe smiled and nodded.
In order to keep her money, of course she had to buy more goods and prevent Xiao Yanan from having access to so much money.
When this wave of money has been transferred almost completely, the shopkeeper will use the next wave of money earned to open branches in other counties. In short, he will try every possible way to squander the money and not keep a large amount of cash in hand.
Ji Chuhe has other plans to open a shop in another county town.
Take it one step at a time.
"What the prince has to do is to be on guard against Xiao Jincheng. There must be people behind him secretly sent to him by the emperor. As long as they find an opportunity, they will take action against the prince." Ji Chuhe reminded softly.
"Don't worry, Madam. I have always been on guard against him."
……
In the blink of an eye, it was the day to select the oiran.
All flower deliveries will be stopped at noon.
Xiao Yan'an looked at Yanran's name hanging high at the top and felt confident of winning.
Xiao Jincheng found another excuse and followed Xiao Yan'an.
I also want to see what Xiao Yan'an will do after the courtesan is revealed, and whether he will really keep her.
He didn't believe that Xiao Yan'an wouldn't support him, after all, he was the one who brought him up.
How could Ji Chuhe not hate Xiao Yan'an? This simply didn't give Ji Chuhe any face at all.
These days, people in the streets and alleys of the imperial capital have been discussing this matter.
They were all scolding Xiao Yanan.
Xiao Yan'an also felt it. No matter where he went, he could feel full of malice. Some people even spit at him in front of him.
He was not angry at all.
Because these people are using their actual actions to stand up for Ji Chuhe, they must like his wife very much to do this.
How could he be angry? He couldn't wait to be happy.
Xiao Jincheng was simply impressed by Xiao Yanan's shamelessness!
However, Xiao Yan'an won't live long.
He will take action when Xiao Yan'an books the pleasure boat. Even if Xiao Yan'an dies, Ji Chuhe will no longer have any thoughts about Xiao Yan'an when he thinks of what Xiao Yan'an did!
"After several days of fierce competition, today we will announce this month's oiran! There is only one stick of incense left, I wonder if there will be any changes in this oiran?"
After all, the difference between the first place Yanran and the second place Lufu was only three hundred flowers.
The boss behind the scenes certainly hopes for competition. The greater the competition, the more he will earn.
Three hundred taels of silver can help Lu Fu turn defeat into victory.
"Everyone hurry up, if you miss this chance, Miss Lu Fu will never have another chance to be selected as the most beautiful woman! Miss Lu Fu is loved by everyone, and her flowers are collected one by one by everyone. There is strength in numbers, and if everyone gathers together, we can collect 300 flowers." The people on the stage were still shouting loudly, just wanting to make more money in this last minute.
Xiao Yan'an looked at the people on the stage with a gloomy expression.
"Could it be that he accepted bribes from someone and deliberately caused trouble at this time?" Xiao Yan'an asked Xiao Jincheng.
"Brother, the situation you mentioned cannot be ruled out. After all, they also want to make more money."
