Chapter 99 Xue Yi: I guessed right, so touching!

Is this... so complicated?

Oh my god.

I thought it was just a simple frame-up, and the reason for the frame-up was because their Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion was too powerful...

But then his grandmother turned around and told him... forget it, they were not coming for them at all.

A bit shocked.

My head is still a little buzzing.

I was stunned for a long while.

Xie Yanqing finally found his voice again.

"Grandma, grandma...then tell me, who attacked us this time?"

The Grand Princess was silent for a moment.

Having said that, you are still asking such a stupid question?!

"Who else could it be who is going after His Majesty's throne?!!!"

Xie Yanqing: "Could it be... the prince? The eldest prince is ill, the third prince is away, the fifth prince is in the palace, and the seventh prince is recuperating..."

"Could it really be the Fifth Prince? I didn't realize he was so ambitious?! Could it be that the Imperial Concubine was behind this?"

The Grand Princess: ...

This pig's hoof is real pig's!

"With the Concubine's brain, how could she come up with such a complicated plan?!!!"

You are totally kidding me!

"Besides... what good will it do to these princes if it alienates the relationship between His Majesty and the clan members and the noble families?!!!"

"Are they going to wait until His Majesty leaves, and then be taken away with the reputation of patricide?!!!"

Forget it, my grandson is not talented, so I'll just reveal the answer directly.

"The only ones who could think of using such a scheme against Your Majesty are the former feudal lords!"

"Although most of the kings were killed by Your Majesty when the kings rebelled, there were still a few who were smart enough to surrender to Your Majesty early."

"To stabilize the country and appease the people, Your Majesty cannot take action against those people, and has given them high positions and generous salaries."

"But these people... after being a wolf once, how can they really be a dog for the rest of their lives?"

"Once you betray, you will never be at peace."

"Not to mention that when the kings were in turmoil... Your Majesty also shed a lot of blood. How can those who supported Your Majesty in conquering the world watch their enemies enjoy all the glory and wealth in the court?"

"Before, there was constant war and chaos, but now that Beiliang has been defeated and the external chaos has been resolved, I naturally have to devote my energy to dealing with those people... If I were those people, I would definitely not be willing to surrender, so I would naturally have to strike first!"

"The ones who attacked our Loyal and Brave Marquisate this time were none other than those vassal kings."

"Either one of them did it and the others watched, or several of them conspired together."

Xie Yanqing finally understood.

When the kings rebelled, there were three princes who finally surrendered and survived.

Prince Yong, Prince Qian and Prince Qing.

So these are the three people?

However, the Grand Princess was not sure who these three people were.

But that's enough.

From aimless to locked range, three classic choices.

The eldest princess has demonstrated her status in the world through her wisdom.

Xie Yanqing rubbed his blue knees and left quickly.

He wants to have a serious talk with his father.

…………

Prince Jing's Mansion.

It was a rare occasion that Chu Wuxun did not enter the palace, but returned to his own residence.

"Your Majesty, the people in the Loyal and Brave Marquis' Mansion have been acting a little strange these past two days."

Xue Lang handed over the latest intelligence, and emphasized the affairs of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery Mansion.

After taking a look at the intelligence, Chu Wuxun curled the corners of his mouth.

"It looks like the Grand Princess has taken action."

"She locked onto her target right away. As expected of the Grand Princess."

Even without leaving home, you can quickly identify the real enemy through the surface of things.

"Since the Xie family has received instructions from the Grand Princess, let's move back a bit... Let the Xie family handle the task of making a fuss."

Xue Lang was puzzled.

How can the prince be sure that the Xie family will not make a move?

Isn't it just a matter of finding the person behind the scenes?

etc……

"My Lord, are you saying that... the person behind this incident is hiding deeper? And he is not one of these three princes?"

Chu Wuhuang shook his head.

"I'm not sure, but I can't help but consider this possibility."

"If the person behind this is one of these three princes, it would save us a lot of trouble if the Xie family could find them."

"But if... the vassal who took action was only instructed by someone else, or if there were other people involved, we can better adjust our perspective and find out what's wrong if we take a step back."

"Sometimes, taking a step back allows us to have a broader perspective, while being too forward can blind us to the situation in front of us and lead to wrong judgments."

Xue Lang: ...

Forget it, he is not good at this kind of brain-intensive things.

It’s better for him to just do whatever the prince tells him to do.

Xue Lang prepared to leave and passed on the instructions given by the prince.

only……

"etc."

Chu Wuxun called Xue Lang, hesitated for a moment, and asked.

"How is the Jiang residence?"

Jiang Mansion?

This time, Xue Lang instantly learned to use his brain.

Which Jiang Mansion is the one that Prince is asking about?

It's clearly Miss Jiang Liu!

"Your Highness, the Jiang family has been busy preparing for the New Year and visiting relatives and friends."

"Except for a visit to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion, Miss Jiang Liu has been eating and drinking these days. I heard that she fed the brothers who were following her and went out to find food after their shifts. They all gained weight."

This incident has become a joke among the Black Armor Guards.

Glancing at his own prince's expressionless face, Xue Lang immediately added another sentence.

"Of course, Miss Jiang Liu went to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion with Miss Jiang Si. I heard that they went to see the Grand Princess and came back soon... Miss Jiang Si must have felt embarrassed to go to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion alone, so she dragged her sister along!!!"

Chu Wuxun glanced at his guards silently.

I always feel that the sentence he added at the end was a bit deliberate.

But I have to say...

It sounds pretty good.

"Yeah, I guess so."

"But... Is the food in the Jiang Mansion so delicious? Even the Black Armored Guards can't resist it?"

Xue Lang secretly looked at his own prince.

What does this mean?

Ahhh, my head hurts.

It's totally unpredictable.

Never mind...

Guess one.

"My Lord, Miss Jiang Liu is really something. She opened Zuixianlou with you and made so many delicious dishes, but why didn't she teach Zuixianlou how to cook? It's such a waste during the Chinese New Year when business is so good."

"By the way, Zuixianlou's business is so good that the shopkeeper suggested buying the land next door two days ago to expand the business."

"Master, do you want to discuss this with Miss Jiang Liu?"

"After all... after all, she also owns a stake in Zuixianlou. We should always discuss expanding the business with her, right?"

Would this make my prince happy?

Xue Lang was a little unsure.

It feels like even after saying so much, my prince doesn't show any expression.

then……

Xue Lang, who was waiting anxiously, heard his own prince's cold voice speak.

"Is the business matter worth your mentioning and asking me to take care of it?"

"However... after all, the people in Zuixianlou are all retired soldiers and their relatives. We should pay more attention to their affairs."

"Then as you said...let's send a message to Miss Jiang Liu and invite her to visit Zuixianlou."

Xue Lang: ...

Woo woo woo, so touching.

He guessed right.

The prince is clearly very happy!
