Chapter 77 The man behind the scenes, among them
Even if I bring them all to Xiaojiu, so what?
The prince originally had his eyes slightly lowered in coldness, but when he heard the old man say to have two children, his eyelashes trembled and he held the cup in his hand tighter.
"Don't worry, Grandpa. As soon as we leave the capital, I will immediately recruit eight or ten gentlemen. I will have as many children as you want, and they will all have the surname Chu. Don't worry."
Pop.
The cup in the prince's hand shattered with a snap. Shen Liuguang and Hongye were startled and hurriedly asked the palace maid to come and clean up.
Chu Jiuning hurriedly turned around, stepped forward, took the prince's hand, and frowned.
"How could you be so careless? Fortunately, you didn't hurt your hand."
The soft fingertips gently stroked his palm again and again, like a burning thread, penetrating into his arm and flowing through his body, making him boil.
The prince was being stroked by her, looking at Chu Jiuning's beautiful face with a serious look, and spoke with a cold face.
"Cut off all their supplies!"
"ah."
Chu Jiuning raised her face and faced the prince. They were so close that she could see herself in his eyes. Chu Jiuning smiled lightly and nodded.
"That's what I thought. I won't give them any more money. If they ask, I'll just tell them we're selecting candidates for adoption. They have to be self-reliant, and the one with the best abilities will be considered for adoption."
As for whether it will pass or not, isn’t it up to the eldest wife to decide?
and.
Chu Jiuning let go of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and looked at Old Master Chu.
"Grandpa, I want to transfer all of Chu's businesses to my name. I have the final say on what happens next."
Old Master Chu nodded. Under the pretext of wanting to adopt a grandson, those behind the scenes would definitely compete with all their might.
maybe.
You can quickly see the flaws.
"By the way, Xiaojiu, are you going to Jiangzhou?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also seems to be preparing to go to Jiangzhou. In that case, they should go together, which would be a good idea.
"Well, after we blow up that mountain, I want to try and see if I can find my father and mother."
"It's been so many years, how could I find it? Xiaojiu, Grandpa is afraid that you are too stubborn. If something goes wrong with you again, Grandpa will not be able to live anymore."
Speaking of this.
The old man was very worried. If he were not so old and the business needed someone to take charge, he would have gone with them. He also wanted to find his son and daughter-in-law.
Whenever Chu Jiuning left the Chu Mansion, he would ask people to inquire about her everywhere, for fear that something might happen to her.
This child is his life.
"Old Master, I will go with her and protect her."
Chu Jiuning looked up in surprise. Is Your Highness going too?
"That's fine, Your Highness. But you must protect Xiaojiu. She's my only relative."
"kindness."
The prince sat upright, his domineering aura making people dare not deny it. The old man then stood up and bowed to the prince.
"Then I will take my leave. Thank you for your hospitality these past few days, Your Highness."
"good."
The prince nodded, and Chu Jiuning stepped forward to help the old man leave.
Raising the hand that Chu Jiuning had stroked, the prince's eyes were deep, as if something was churning. Between his fingers, he could vaguely see the backs of the two generations of grandfather and grandson.
Someone came forward and whispered something in Shen Liuguang's ear. Shen Liuguang's face darkened, and he stepped forward, holding the hilt of the sword and whispered softly.
"Your Highness, the Queen invites you into the palace."
"What's up?"
The prince stood up, his eyes still fixed on Chu Jiuning's back.
"It seems the Queen is going to choose a Crown Princess for you."
The prince's handsome face suddenly sank.
He had finally spread the news that he was ill and could not have children, putting the powerful ministers to rest, but why did his mother start to have ideas again?
He took out a pill from his arms, and Shen Liuguang hurried forward to stop him.
"Your Highness, please don't take this medicine."
In the past, because of poisoning, Wuyou said, just eat it, your health is so poor anyway, it doesn’t matter, just recuperate together.
But.
Now the poison in His Highness' body has been cleared.
Miss Chu said that the antidote would take two years to take, but in fact Wuyou discovered on the third day that the poison in His Highness' body was completely eliminated.
This medicine can make His Highness look ugly, weak, and vomit black blood under the stimulation of internal force.
It will also harm your body.
Tai Liao looked towards the corner and saw Chu Jiuning's disappearing figure. His face darkened, but he still ate it.
They left the Prince's Mansion almost at the same time.
One goes left, one goes right.
When they arrived at the gate of the Chu Mansion, Old Master Chu looked at the magnificent gate and asked her.
"New property business?"
He was extremely satisfied with his granddaughter's business acumen. She could find ways to take over businesses from high-ranking officials to ordinary people, and she could do everything very well.
"Well, we've already received several hundred thousand, but half of this money must be given to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
The old man was immediately satisfied and patted Chu Jiuning's hand.
"It would be great to drag His Royal Highness the Crown Prince into this, and it would be best if he got soaked to the skin and couldn't get out. I'm at the mansion, would you like to come in and sit down, or go and do your own thing? I'll take care of the Chu family's affairs!"
Chu Jiuning shook her head.
"Grandpa, there are some things that need to be made clear to them. I will take care of this matter. From now on, I will be the only one who can have a say in the Chu family."
This means that he wants to hold all the power of the business in his own hands. Old Master Chu looked at his graceful granddaughter, whose eyes were full of wisdom, and nodded.
"good."
As he said this, Old Master Chu ordered someone to invite the second, third, and fourth wives into the mansion. The fifth and sixth wives were born out of wedlock and had no say, but they were called in as well because he had something to announce.
When the second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth rooms heard that the old man had summoned everyone, they thought it must be about the adoption, so they all rushed to the mansion within an hour.
As they stepped into this fairyland-like mansion, the heat in their eyes burned fiercely. This was where those in power should live.
Songxiangyuan is specially used for meetings.
The maids came in and out, and the servants were busy.
After everyone rushed in impatiently, they saw Old Master Chu and Chu Jiuning sitting in the main seats.
A bunch of people.
They greeted each other politely and then took their seats.
In order to make it easier for everyone to discuss things, Chu Jiuning specially built a long oval table with a total of forty chairs.
The table was filled with water, cakes, fruits, and freshly cut flowers.
"Grandpa, do you have something to tell us?"
Chu Linxiao stood up and bowed, asked Old Master Chu, and then smiled gratefully at Chu Jiuning.
"I have received the notice from Chunshan Academy. Thank you, Xiaojiu, for your help."
"What?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Chunshan Academy? That was an academy for the government and the royal family. They were not qualified to study there.
For a while.
Eyes of envy, jealousy, and hatred kept sweeping over Chu Linxiao.
The second master Chu from the second house, Chu Linxiao's father, stood up, his eyebrows beaming with joy, and said with a smile.
"Xiaojiu has made a great contribution this time. Let Linxiao help you with whatever you need in the future."
"good."
Chu Jiuning smiled and motioned them to sit down. After everyone quieted down, she spoke lightly.
"I asked everyone to come here today because I have something to announce."
Everyone in the family felt their hearts tighten when they heard this, with a mixture of longing and vigilance on their faces. They must be talking about adoption. They wondered which family's son she had chosen.
Chu Jiuning and Old Master Chu looked at each other, then scanned everyone's faces one by one.
As hatred surged in my heart, I clenched my fists tightly.
The person behind the scenes.
Right among them!
