Lin Xiuyan recalled the scheme in the arena that day, and after careful consideration, she understood their plan.
Zhou Chenyang wanted to control her, but Jiang Xinrou felt that it would be more advantageous for her to die...
Seeing that Lin Xiuyan looked unwell, Qiu Tao cautiously asked, "Miss, are you alright?"
Lin Xiuyan took a deep breath and said, "I'm fine."
Qiu Tao glanced at the green worm in the sachet and asked, "What should we do with this?"
Lin Xiuyan replied, "Don't rush to kill him, I still have a use for him."
After she finished speaking, she found a bottle and put the insects in it: "Don't tell anyone about this, not even my father."
Qiu Tao nodded: "Don't worry, Miss, I'm very tight-lipped."
Lin Xiuyan smiled gently at Qiu Tao, knowing full well that Qiu Tao was very tight-lipped.
This girl had always been by her side in her past life, doing everything she could to protect her, but in the end, she was killed by Jiang Xinrou who ripped out her heart.
She reached out and touched Qiu Tao's head, saying gently, "We must live well in this life."
Qiu Tao was a little confused by what she heard, but she still nodded obediently.
Lin Xiuyan smiled. She and the people she cared about were still alive. That was wonderful!
At the same time, Zhou Chenyang met with the inspector of the Pingnan Prince's Mansion. The inspector claimed to be the heir of the Pingnan Prince's Mansion and also had a special token made by the Pingnan Prince's Mansion.
However, he felt a sense of contempt when he saw how this "crown prince" acted.
Because as soon as the prince arrived, he asked him to present a portion of all the delicacies of Chongqing, and also asked him to call over the most beautiful courtesan from Yihong Pavilion to keep him company.
This prince was the epitome of a dissolute and unrestrained person, which perfectly matched the image of him in the rumors circulating in the capital.
He spent little time in the capital and usually considered himself a man of integrity, so he never frequented the places frequented by the heir apparent of the Prince of Pingnan.
In addition, due to the vast difference in their social status, he had never met this prince in the capital.
Zhou Chenyang felt that with such a heir in the Pingnan Prince's Mansion, once the current Pingnan Prince died, the Pingnan Prince's Mansion would not be destroyed much.
He wasn't afraid that the Prince of Pingnan's heir was a good-for-nothing; on the contrary, he was afraid that the Prince of Pingnan's heir was a formidable figure.
In retrospect, the emperor's strategy was correct; the heir apparent of the Prince of Pingnan had been completely spoiled in the capital.
Wu Dao felt that he had done a pretty good job of playing the role of a useless prince, and he saw intense disdain in Zhou Chenyang's eyes.
He thought to himself with a sense of unease, "I've sacrificed so much so that the prince can successfully marry a wife! I've really gone to great lengths!"
"But the young master has already slept with her, and Miss Lin's status is too low. I'm afraid the prince and princess will not agree to him marrying Miss Lin."
"Miss Lin is so fierce. When she can't get into the Prince's mansion, I wonder if she'll smear shit all over the Prince's face too."
"I don't want to think about it too much. The wine in the city lord's mansion is quite good. I should drink more to treat myself."
He was drinking wine while holding a beautiful woman in his arms. The fragrance emanating from her body was making him feel uncomfortable, and he felt like sneezing!
In fact, he did sneeze loudly, startling the beautiful woman next to him.
Wu Dao thought about Ye Junfei's personality for a moment, then immediately kicked the beauty aside and said with disgust, "Your powder smells terrible!"
"Guards, take her away and give her to me... I will give her a good wash."
Zhou Chenyang immediately ordered the beauty to be taken away, and asked with a smile, "How about we change the young master to the most beautiful courtesan from another brothel?"
Wu Dao waved his hand and said, "No need. Yucheng is too small. The beauties here can't compare to those in the capital. It's really disappointing."
Zhou Chenyang smiled and said, "What the young master says is true. Yucheng is just a small place. How can it compare to the capital?"
"Your Highness has come to Yucheng on the orders of the Prince. I wonder where you intend to begin your investigation?"
Wu Dao poured himself a glass of fine wine, drank it all in one gulp, let out a big burp, and said, "I haven't decided yet."
Zhou Chenyang: "..."
They come to inspect but haven't figured out what they're looking for. I've never seen anything like it.
He was completely relieved; this guy was a complete good-for-nothing, so he didn't need to put too much effort into him.
But as it turns out, he was really overthinking it.
This "crown prince" is indeed a good-for-nothing, and he has even mastered the skill of being a good-for-nothing.
The "Prince" really enjoyed drinking the fine wines from the City Lord's Mansion. Ever since Zhou Chenyang took out his treasured wines last time, the "Prince" had been asking him for more.
Although the "Prince" likes to drink, he has a low alcohol tolerance and tends to act crazy when drunk.
His drunken antics were quite unique. He didn't hit or curse people, and he wasn't even very talkative, but he liked to take off people's clothes as soon as he finished drinking.
Zhou Chenyang, as the host, was the first to be harmed by Wu Dao. Before he could even react, Wu Dao had stripped him naked, exposing his arms. (M.cascoo.net)
It's one thing to just take off people's clothes, but after he's done, he also has to give his opinion.
For example, his comment on Zhou Chenyang was: "Haha, your physique is no good, tsk tsk, if you took your clothes off you would be a live boiled chicken!"
Zhou Chenyang: "..."
He's going to be driven mad by the "Crown Prince"!
He tried to leave, but Wu Dao wouldn't let him, grabbing him and saying, "Don't go, you plump white-cut chicken. It's perfect for drinking with your wine."
After saying this, Wu Dao drew his sword from the ground, preparing to slash Zhou Chenyang.
Zhou Chenyang: "..."
He was terrified and ran out with the help of his servants.
He thought he was safe, but before five breaths had passed, the servant who had been kicked over by Wu Dao also ran out, waving his sword and shouting, "White-cut chicken, don't run!"
Zhou Chenyang: "!!!!!!!"
He was so frustrated he felt like he was going to vomit blood!
Given his status as the "crown prince," he dared not order anyone to stop him with force, so he ran away shirtless.
He thought the "prince" had drunk too much and wouldn't be able to chase him for long.
As it turned out, he was overthinking it. Wu Dao, who had been drinking, was full of energy and chased after him for most of the night.
He finally stopped when he was almost exhausted.
He originally planned to deal with the "young master" first and then go to deal with the Lin family, but he ended up being so tired that he forgot everything.
Because of this incident, he didn't want to see the "Prince" again the next day and wanted to hide. However, before he even got up, he heard Wu Dao calling him to drink outside.
He was exasperated, but Wu Dao was still praising him: "The wine in the City Lord's Mansion is really good, even better than the imperial wine in the palace. Let's keep drinking!"
Zhou Chenyang: "..."
He regretted giving the "Prince" his best wine yesterday, as the prince had become addicted!
Wu Dao, posing as Ye Junfei, was in the City Lord's Mansion, playing around with Zhou Chenyang and driving him crazy!
Ye Junfei glanced at him from afar and thought that although his guard was a bit useless, he was quite effective when used in the right place.
Wu Ge, holding his sword, clicked his tongue several times before saying, "Has this kid completely let himself go?"
