Chapter 320

“Sir, there’s also Tang Xiuyuan,” Xu Heming added.

"Shouldn't Tang Xiuyuan be keeping a close watch on the national treasury? Even if there's an extra rat, he should be punished!" Zhu Jingchen felt a bit disgusted when he thought of Tang Xiuyuan. His ability to make money was not as good as Li Tianyou's. Now, his greatest use was just guarding the national treasury.

"Anyone can talk big, right? Do you really think Lord Fang is that idle?" Old Madam Zhou said with a look of disdain.

Lanhuai Prince's Mansion

"Your Highness, our men have discovered that the Prince of An's heir is only accompanied by a servant boy, and we don't know where he's going."

Someone excitedly delivered this news to Prince Lanhuai.

"Oh? Are you sure it was just him with only a servant?" Lan Huaiwang's eyes were filled with excitement. How many good things had Xu Heming ruined for him?

"Your Highness, I am quite certain. Should we capture the heir of Prince An and then threaten Prince An to work for us?" The man, named Zhou Zuo, was asking Prince Lan Huai with great excitement, seeking his opinion.

He was just waiting for the King of Lanhuai's order to kidnap the man, and then the king would surely praise him for his meritorious service.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zuo looked at Lan Huai Wang even more attentively.

"Your Highness, Consort Lan requests an audience," Eunuch Wu said cautiously from the side.

When Prince Lan Huai heard that Huo Yunzhi had come again, he felt a headache coming on.

"What is she after this time?" King Lan Huai asked, somewhat troubled.

"This old servant heard that Consort Lan did something today that led Qingyu Zhai to remove the Lan Huai Prince's Mansion from the list of residences, and the Princess is furious about it," Eunuch Wu said in a low voice.

"What did she do?" Lan Huaiwang frowned upon hearing this. Although he didn't go to Qingyuzhai, being expelled from the list was a huge loss of face for him.

"They say Consort Lan had a quarrel with some young lady," Eunuch Wu said somewhat awkwardly.

"Useless thing." King Lan Huai was furious upon hearing this.

"Has Huo Yunxuan sent back anything useful recently?" Lan Huaiwang thought of Huo Yunxuan's saying that even a starved camel is bigger than a horse, and his request was to marry Huo Yunzhi as a concubine.

However, thinking about how Fu'an and Huo Yunzhi had been at odds all the time since he brought Huo Yunzhi back to the manor, and how the manor was in constant chaos, he realized that the situation was quite different.

What Prince Lan Huai didn't know was that Princess Fu'an had already revealed the truth: he had never considered Huo Yunzhi as a concubine at all.

Today, Huo Yunzhi wants to demand an explanation from Prince Lan Huai.

What her brother intended to give to Prince Lanhuai, he actually gave to her.

Huo Yunzhi wasn't stupid. Naturally, she had no expectations of Lan Huaiwang, an old man old enough to be her father.

However, she did not expect to receive any favor from Prince Lan Huai. But when she saw Li Zhiwei, she naturally wanted revenge. Why could Li Zhiwei marry such a dashing man as Prince An, while she could only choose an old man?

Huo Yunzhi was unwilling to accept this, and today she was determined to solidify her status as a concubine.

"No, Your Highness, do you think that what Young Master Huo wanted to give you might have already been given to Consort Lan?" Eunuch Wu whispered.

Thinking of this, King Lan Huai rubbed his forehead, feeling a bit of a headache.

It seems he absolutely must see Huo Yunzhi.

"Your Highness, what about the heir of Prince An..." Zhou Zuo looked anxiously at Prince Lan Huai, still waiting for the prince's instructions.
