For the sake of the Lu family's wealth, Prince Luo and the Queen would not only offend him, but also the emperor. Even the emperor would be tempted by that kind of wealth.

Back then, Xiling massacred Lujia Island and borrowed the Lu family's treasures to achieve the current situation.

It is said that the jewels taken away by the Xiling royal family were only one-third of all the wealth of the Lu family. Most of the Lu family's wealth was hidden in a secret place, known only to the Lu family themselves.

Lu Yiran, the wife of the Palace Master of Xuanxiao Palace, can easily spend two hundred thousand taels of gold. You can imagine how much wealth she has.

The property in Princess Mingwei's hands must be this. With this property, not to mention taking the throne of Dongling, it is enough to conquer the world.

"Keep an eye on Princess Mingwei. I want to know the whereabouts of that fortune." The Ninth Prince did not hide his bandit nature.

The Lu family's property can fall into the hands of anyone, but not into the hands of Dong Ling Zi Luo. He believes that Lu Yimo does not want the Lu family's property to fall into the hands of Dong Ling Zi Luo.

After talking about the two biggest things, the rest were trivial matters. The Ninth Prince gave orders on the spot, and the people below just had to act according to his orders.

After briefly explaining the matter, the servant came to report that Miss Feng had gotten up.

The Ninth Prince nodded, waved away the secret guards, and just as he stepped out of the door, he saw the butler rushing in: "Your Highness, there is an imperial decree. Please accept it, Your Highness."

"Imperial edict? The king is not feeling well, you can receive the edict on his behalf." The Ninth Prince did not ask about the content of the imperial edict at all, and walked towards Feng Qingchen's yard.

While the butler was setting up the incense table to receive the imperial edict, the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen were having dinner. After dinner, the butler came in to report the contents of the imperial edict.

"Your Highness, the Emperor has bestowed upon you some top-quality medicinal herbs. The imperial edict also says that the Emperor asks Your Highness to stay at home and take good care of your health, and not rush into the palace to attend court." The Emperor issued an edict to express condolences to the Ninth Prince, in order to confirm that the Ninth Prince was "unwell" and prevent him from attending court.

"Send the medicinal materials to the Su Mansion and keep the imperial edict on display." The Ninth Prince did not care that the Emperor had sidelined him.

Even when he attended court, he rarely interfered in government affairs.

"Yes." Seeing that the Ninth Prince was calm and composed, the butler knew that the Ninth Prince had already made plans, and he felt relieved.

"The emperor wants to seize your power, aren't you worried?" The emperor finally couldn't hold back and took action against the ninth uncle. Feng Qingchen was not surprised by this, as it was inevitable.

"Worry? What should I worry about? My power was never given by the emperor. What does the emperor want to take away? What can he take away from me?" The Ninth Prince said arrogantly. People who didn't know would think that the Ninth Prince was the emperor.

"It seems that I worried for nothing. Since you are fine, I will go back first." Feng Qingchen slept for an afternoon and was full of energy.

The reason she returned to Feng Mansion was not because she was sentimental, but because she had been away from the mansion for so long and had many things to deal with. She was the only one who could make decisions in Feng Mansion.

"Okay, I will send you back." The Ninth Prince knew how busy the person in charge was.

"Take good care of your injuries when you go back, and don't try to be stubborn anymore." The Ninth Prince took Feng Qingchen's hand and walked out slowly. The servants had already made preparations, and Feng Qingchen could set off at any time.

But just as the two of them walked to the outer courtyard, a secret guard flashed out and said, "Your Highness, Lord Fu is waiting for you in the study." The secret guard's voice was not loud, just loud enough for both parties to hear.

Feng Qingchen knew as soon as he heard it that Fu Lin came here in secret, otherwise, the person who came to report would not be a secret guard.

"You go and do your work, I'll go back by myself." Feng Qingchen is definitely a standard virtuous wife, and she would never let the Ninth Prince delay his work for her.

"Stay here for one night and go back tomorrow. Listen to me." The Ninth Prince held Feng Qingchen's hand and said.

The atmosphere was somewhat serious.

"What's up?"

The Ninth Prince nodded and said, "I'll talk to you later. Wait for me."

The Ninth Prince's expression did not seem fake, and Feng Qingchen nodded, indicating that he would cooperate. Only then did the Ninth Prince leave with peace of mind.

In the study, Fu Linjing was sitting at the bottom. When he saw the Ninth Emperor Uncle coming in, he quickly stood up and said, "Greetings, Ninth Emperor Uncle."

"Master Fu, thank you for your courtesy. Please take a seat." The Ninth Prince raised his hand slightly and sat down directly on the main seat. He asked directly, "I wonder what brings you here so late at night?"

"Ninth Prince, please do not mention secret guards in front of others. I came here to cooperate with you." Fu Lin was also straightforward and decisive, and directly stated his purpose.

"Cooperation? I thought we have been cooperating." The Ninth Prince's eyes were like torches, leaving Fu Lin no way to escape. Fu Lin felt his soul tremble, realizing that he had said something wrong. In order to make amends, Fu Lin knelt down with a thud: "It was Fu Lin who said something wrong, please punish me, Ninth Prince. I, Fu Lin, on behalf of the Fu family, am willing to be loyal to the Ninth Prince."

Cooperation and loyalty are two completely different concepts. In cooperation, both parties are equal, while in loyalty, it is a master-servant relationship. A hint of satisfaction flashed across the eyes of the Ninth Prince, but he did not show it. Instead, he said coldly, "Why should I trust you?"

"This is the patriarch's order of my Fu family. With this order, I can command the descendants of the Fu family at will." Fu Lin respectfully presented a palm-sized token, his words were sincere and his expression was humble.

Those who shoulder the mission of reviving their family have no right to be aloof.

The Ninth Prince took the token, played with it in his hand, and leaned back slightly, looking relaxed and comfortable.

“I want to know what prompted Lord Fu to make the choice.” The Ninth Prince wanted to use Fu Lin, but he was still a little wary in his heart. After all, the grudges between the Fu family and the Lan family and the Fengli clan could not be explained in a few words.

"A wise bird chooses a tree to roost in, a wise minister chooses a master to serve. We, the Fu family, are willing to assist a wise ruler." Fu Lin spoke each word with great seriousness, but the Ninth Prince smiled nonchalantly, "A wise ruler? In my opinion, Lord Fu must have seen the Emperor Star appear in the world, so he placed all his bets on me."

The Ninth Prince said this calmly, but his eyes were always on Fu Lin. When he saw Fu Lin's face change slightly, the Ninth Prince knew that he had guessed right. He was even more certain that Fu Lin was serious about this. Seeing that Fu Lin didn't say anything, he asked again: "Why? Didn't the prince say it right?"

"No, Your Highness is right. I did make this decision after seeing the Emperor Star appear." Fu Lin appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was turbulent. He couldn't believe that there was someone in this world who could see the Emperor Star appear.

Fu Lin hesitated for a while, but finally asked: "Your Majesty, may I ask who saw the Emperor Star appear in the world?"

"What's wrong? Lord Fu, you don't think that your family is the only one in the world who understands astrology, right? Lord Fu, the world is full of wonders, and the Fu family is not as unique as you think." The Ninth Prince's words were intended to belittle the Fu family, in order to prevent Fu Lin from getting too arrogant.

If it were in the past, Fu Lin would definitely not accept it, but after the Ninth Prince mentioned the matter of the Emperor Star, Fu Lin dared not speak nonsense.

If the Ninth Prince already had someone who was good at astrology by his side, then the Fu family would not be as important to him as he imagined, but...

He had made his choice, so he could not regret it. To seek wealth and honor in troubled times, he had to show his true ability. Fu Lin clasped his fists and said, "Please rest assured, Uncle Nine, I will prove to you that my Fu family is worthy of your trust."

"The king will wait and see." He wanted to see what Fu Lin would do to prove his ability!
