Before Shuanghua could even react, Lao Qi's eyes widened immediately. "Master, you don't mean for us to steal it, do you? That seems a bit difficult."
Shuanghua immediately glared at Lao Qi, "Are you an idiot! Still trying to steal? If stealing were so easy, we would have already done it!"
Lan Linxue smiled slightly, appearing somewhat relaxed, and said, "To be honest, there's nothing wrong with robbing him. I dare tell you, even if we robbed Hu Tianyong, he wouldn't dare utter a single word!"
At this point, Lan Linxue curled her lips in a particularly sarcastic manner: "Lord Hu is an honest and upright official, he is clean-handed and never greedy! He would never accept bribes! Don't talk nonsense."
Frostflower smiled slightly: "What Master said is right! Why don't we just rush in and rob them clean this time!"
Lan Linxue waved her hand, "We need to plan this carefully! My plan is not only to take all of this old man's money this time, making him suffer in silence, but more importantly, I want him to give up all his official positions in Jiangnan!"
Upon hearing this, Lao Qi immediately exchanged a glance with Shuang Hua.
"Master, this is a grand undertaking, a massive plan. Should we start preparing now?"
Lan Linxue nodded, "We must start preparing now, or it will be too late!"
After saying that, Lan Linxue turned to look at the seventh brother, "Go! Find out Jiang Ming's whereabouts immediately, and make sure you find out what he's giving away this time, and who else is giving it to him!"
"Yes! I'll take care of it right away!" With that, Lao Qi turned and walked out.
The seventh brother is a man of action; whatever he is given must be done immediately!
After watching the seventh brother leave, Lan Linxue looked at Shuanghua, beckoned with her finger, and whispered, "With such a grand birthday banquet going on at Hu Tianyong's house, they'll definitely start recruiting new people. You need to start placing people in there now and find out everything about the Hu family. Remember, it must be done discreetly, and you absolutely cannot alert them, understand?"
Frostflower nodded. "What exactly do you plan to do?"
Lan Linxue chuckled mischievously, "I'm going to put on a big show in front of Hu Tianyong, not only to infuriate him, but also to make him lose everything! Doesn't he want to celebrate his birthday? Let's give him a proper celebration!"
"Should we start with Jiang Ming?"
Lan Linxue nodded. "These bastards from Jiangnan not only lost their account books this time, but we also ransacked them. They'll definitely have to give us a big reward! If we secretly switch those gifts first, and then embarrass Jiang Ming in front of everyone, do you think Hu Tianyong and the officials from Jiangnan will still be united? At the same time, I'll go and say a few words to the old man first. If we can get a few officials from Jiangnan out of trouble, things will be easier for us to handle later!"
Shuanghua nodded upon hearing this and whispered, "But robbing Hu Tianyong is a very troublesome matter. We can't really just rob him, can we? Even after we rob him, it'll be a problem. We can't sell the stuff, and people will have to keep an eye on us!"
"The goods are certainly hard to steal, but the silver and banknotes are a different story! I need to think about this carefully. I'll tell you when I've made up my mind. You all go and arrange the things I asked you to do first!"
Shuanghua nodded clearly, "Okay! I understand. Don't worry, I definitely won't make any mistakes in what comes next!"
Lan Linxue saw that Shuanghua understood what he meant, so he waved his hand, signaling him to leave first. There were some things he needed to think about quietly by himself.
In Lan Linxue's plan, none of these things were the most important thing. The most important thing was that he had to marry Qin Kou'er immediately so that his son could be recognized by his ancestors.
After dismissing everyone from the room, Lan Linxue slowly walked to the soft couch next to her, lay down comfortably, and gazed at the carvings on it. Lan Linxue began to ponder his paper.
Since he had already agreed with Qin Kou'er that he would handle this matter, he had to act immediately. The biggest obstacle now was his own father.
Marriage and having children are very important matters for members of the royal family, as they are related not only to the continuation of the imperial lineage but also to the succession of the throne.
Therefore, both the crown prince and other princes had to go through a formal selection process to choose their consorts. At this time, there would be a grand ceremony for selecting young women, giving the crown prince or other princes the opportunity to choose personally.
This is when all the ministers begin to work hard.
Lan Linxue wanted to marry Qin Kou'er, so he couldn't escape this procedure or avoid this rule. However, he also knew that once he was involved in the selection, Lan Xiuyuan would inevitably compete with him fiercely, and the most important decisive factor was his own thoughts. In other words, the Emperor would ultimately decide who he would marry or not.
Therefore, Lan Linxue was determined to get past his father, the emperor, before choosing a concubine.
To get past his father's hurdle, he had to show that in his heart, his father was more important than anyone else.
Whenever Lan Linxue thought about this, she felt really depressed. Her baby's life was so hard!
I've always heard of mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law fighting over their sons, but I've never heard of fathers-in-law fighting with their daughters-in-law for their sons.
But this is the problem Lan Linxue is facing right now, and he still has to solve it.
Thinking of all this, Lan Linxue immediately turned over in frustration.
But no matter what, even if it meant going through fire and water, he had to do it, because Ke'er really couldn't wait any longer.
After thinking for a while, Lan Linxue became restless and irritable again. She sighed and decided to go to her father the next morning to discuss the selection of a concubine.
