Chapter 91 Got Hit
Han Susu was confused when she heard this!
"Re-arrange?"
Xiao Fuguang nodded slightly.
"Yes, you and he are now equal opponents. Continuing to fight will only result in a loss for both of you. For you, a loss for both of you is also a loss. What you want is to win, and you want to win on a higher level."
Han Susu listened very seriously.
"So what should I do?"
Xiao Fuguang placed the jade pendant that he and she had given him on the table.
"You said before that if I needed you, you would do your best for me. I wonder if you still mean it now?"
If she had the Regent Princess as her backer, wouldn't it be easy to deal with that pair of bitches? Han Susu hurriedly stood up and knelt down towards Xiao Fuguang.
"Han Susu is willing to be loyal to you, young lady."
Seeing this, Xiao Fuguang picked up the jade pendant and continued to play with it.
"It's difficult to grow food in Beipan, and the people rely on animal husbandry for their livelihood. If you can go to the Northern Territory to buy Beipan wool and make it into warm clothing, then you will definitely be very popular in the cold Northern Territory and make a lot of money."
"When you open up a new trade route and rebuild your reputation and status, leaving them far behind, your current situation will be broken. When your status is so much higher than theirs, even the smallest action of yours could be a devastating blow to them. By then, are you still afraid that you won't be able to deal with them?"
When Han Susu heard this, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes, and she quickly understood Xiao Fuguang's intention.
This is indeed a great opportunity to escape from your current predicament and pave the way for your future.
"Miss Xiao, do you want me to use Beipan's wool to make warm clothing and open up a market in the North?"
Han Susu asked, with a hint of excitement in her tone.
Xiao Fuguang smiled and nodded.
"Indeed, the climate in the North is extremely cold, and there is a huge demand for warm clothing. As the initiator of this project, you will be able to quickly accumulate wealth and reputation. At the same time, this will also be a great opportunity for you to completely break away from the past and start anew."
Han Susu took a deep breath, her eyes gleaming with determination.
"Miss Xiao, I'm willing to give it a try. However, I'm not familiar with Beipan's situation, so I'm afraid I'll need some guidance and help."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fuguang played with the jade pendant and looked at her.
"Don't worry, I will provide you with the necessary assistance, and even invest money for you. However, I want 60% of the profits."
Han Susu was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then she felt relieved.
After all, Xiao Fuguang provided not only funds, but also rare opportunities and support. Although 60% of the profits was high, considering the support behind it and the potential risks, this condition was not too harsh.
"Sixty percent... Miss Xiao, I am willing to accept this condition, as long as it gives me a chance to turn things around and stand up again."
Han Susu answered respectfully, her eyes full of gratitude.
Then he spoke again with a worried look on his face.
"Ms. Xiao, I'm not afraid of hardship or fatigue, but if I go to the North, my child..."
Xiao Fuguang spoke upon hearing this.
"That's easy. Send your child to the Imperial Master's Mansion for upbringing. Once he's in the Imperial Master's Mansion, your ex-husband won't be able to do anything to him!"
Upon hearing this, Han Susu knelt down in gratitude.
"Thank you, Miss Xiao. Don't worry, when it comes to business, I, Han Susu, have never lost. I will definitely make a lot of money for you, Miss Xiao, so that you will never be short of money."
At this time, Liu Yue walked in and whispered a few words in Xiao Fuguang's ear.
Xiao Fuguang stood up and helped Han Susu up.
"Get busy!"
"Xingyue, accompany her and secretly send her child to the Imperial Master's Mansion. Have Anfu arrange for someone to take good care of him."
Han Susu spoke again with gratitude.
"Thank you, Miss Xiao."
Xingyue took her out.
Liu Yue tidied up the teacups on the table.
Then go out quietly.
When he came in again, he was accompanied by the fifth prince.
The fifth prince holds a folding fan in his hand.
He spoke with a smile on his face.
"The Imperial Aunt and the Imperial Uncle are newly married. They should be enjoying each other's company, but why would the Imperial Aunt want to see me?"
Xiao Fuguang smiled slightly.
"Fifth Prince, please take a seat."
Liu Yue stepped forward and respectfully poured hot tea.
The fifth prince took the teacup and looked at Xiao Fuguang with a smile on his face.
"I wonder if there is any way I can serve the Emperor's aunt."
Xiao Fuguang looked at the fifth prince for a moment, then pursed his lips and smiled.
"I don't deserve the word 'service'. Today I want to discuss a business deal with the Fifth Prince. As the daughter of the Xiao family, I want to discuss a business deal with the Fifth Prince."
Upon hearing this, the Fifth Prince's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he raised his eyebrows with interest.
"Oh? The identity of the daughter of the Xiao family? That's really interesting. I wonder what business the imperial aunt wants to discuss with me?"
Xiao Fuguang gently turned the teacup in his hand and looked at the fifth prince with deep eyes.
"People outside say that the Fifth Prince is not doing his job properly, and that he only knows how to recite poetry and paint every day. But I think the Fifth Prince is no ordinary person. If the opportunity comes one day, he will definitely rule the world."
Upon hearing this, the Fifth Prince tightened his grip on the teacup, then smiled.
"Auntie, you think too highly of me. I have no ambitions. I can only wait for my brother, the Crown Prince, to ascend the throne and then grant me the title of a leisurely prince. This will allow me to continue traveling and enjoying the scenery without worrying about food and drink."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fuguang looked at him with a smile without saying a word.
The fifth prince waved the folding fan in his hand.
"What this prince said is the truth."
Xiao Fuguang looked at him with a half-smile when he heard that.
"Yeah?"
"But is it really so?"
The Fifth Prince was about to say something, but suddenly thought of her identity and suppressed the smile on his face.
"So, has the Protector of the Country Princess figured out something?"
Xiao Fuguang spoke slowly after hearing this.
"What I saw is not important. What is important is whether you, the Fifth Prince, need my help, and whether you are willing to provide me with some convenience."
Upon hearing this, the Fifth Prince looked at Xiao Fuguang, trying to read something on her face, but she remained calm and composed from beginning to end.
"What does the princess want?"
There was a flicker of murderous intent in Xiao Fuguang's eyes.
"I want the lives of Prince Rong and Concubine Yao."
The fifth prince was shocked when he heard this.
"The princess is not afraid that I will tell Prince Rong?"
Xiao Fuguang spoke calmly after hearing this.
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. If the Fifth Prince doesn't understand this, there's no need for me to be sitting here today."
The fifth prince laughed suddenly.
"The princess is truly admirable."
"But the Yao family is very powerful, and Prince Rong has accumulated a lot of strength over the years. It would be extremely difficult to move against them!"
Xiao Fuguang spoke slowly after hearing this.
"It is indeed as difficult as ascending to heaven, but what if you, the Fifth Prince, are that heaven?"
"What will the little Concubine Yao and Prince Rong mean to you then?"
Upon hearing this, the Fifth Prince looked at Xiao Fuguang and spoke with a gleam in his eyes.
"Given the current situation, what does the princess think this prince should do?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fuguang looked at him and spoke.
"You must fulfill your duties within your position. Fifth Prince, just do your job well."
The fifth prince spoke in confusion upon hearing this.
"Things related to your identity?"
"I am just a playful prince with no power or influence. What can I do?"
Xiao Fuguang smiled and spoke when he heard this.
"As the emperor's son, it's natural for me to share his worries."
"The Emperor is in good health. Fighting for power and forming factions under his nose is a taboo. If there is someone who only listens to him and is dedicated to doing his job, do you think the Emperor will look upon this person differently?"
Upon hearing this, the Fifth Prince looked at Xiao Fuguang's calm expression and couldn't help feeling regretful. If it weren't for his lack of power, this woman would have been his wife. With such a virtuous wife, he would have no worries about achieving great things. But now it seems that being an ally is not bad either.
"I understand the princess's proposal. I will find an opportunity to share my father's worries."
Suddenly, the door of the box was pushed open.
I saw Xuanyuan Jing standing at the door, and Prince Rong was standing next to him.
Prince Rong was speaking.
"Uncle, do you think I didn't lie to you? Auntie..."
Suddenly the voice stopped and he spoke with a look of disbelief.
"Fifth Prince, why are you here?"
Then he took two steps forward, his eyes moving between him and Xiao Fuguang, as if something extraordinary had happened.
“You, you…”
"Fifth Prince, even if you were interested in the Imperial Aunt before, now that the Imperial Aunt is married to the Imperial Uncle, you should know how to avoid suspicion. How could you have a secret meeting with Aunt Huang here?"
Xuanyuan Jing looked at Xiao Fuguang, who stood up after a brief pause, and the two looked at each other...
