Chapter 530: I've Long Heard of Your Name
Tsk!
Emperor Chengde glanced at him in dissatisfaction: "You actually don't believe me."
"It's all yours anyway. What difference does it make if you give it to me earlier or later? When Lu Xiang comes in, the title deed to the mine will be in Father's hands."
All kinds of things happened before he married her.
He can't afford to lose both the wife and the army.
Emperor Chengde gritted his teeth secretly, this kid is so annoying.
But he said, "Tomorrow I will ask the Ministry of Rites to draft an edict and choose a good day to propose marriage."
After hearing this, Chu Jinyan stood up and said, "Thank you for your concern, Father. I am a little tired from living in fear these days. I will go back home first."
Emperor Chengde looked at his son's sudden fatigue, frowned slightly, and felt distressed. He waved his hand and said, "Go back quickly. I will give you an explanation about the matter of the fifth son."
Chu Jinyan paused, and said indifferently: "Your son does not need to explain, after all, he is also the son of the emperor."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Emperor Chengde looked at his slightly lonely back, feeling both distressed and angry.
I feel sorry for Chu Jinyan’s understanding.
Angry at Chu Shian’s cruelty.
"Hu Qian, Xuan Xianpin."
Hu Qian responded respectfully and turned to go to the harem.
Chu Jinyan left the Palace of Heavenly Purity, and Sheng Xian, who was waiting in the distance, immediately came to greet him: "Your Highness, how is it, did the Emperor agree?"
"Yes, a silver mine."
"Hiss..." Sheng Xian took a breath, "The Emperor really wants it. The Third Miss has given it to His Highness, and we haven't even warmed it up in our arms yet."
The third young lady has two silver mines, one of which has long been given to His Highness.
If His Highness wants to accomplish great things, he must have money. That mine has brought them so many benefits, but it's a pity that it was given away just like that... given away!
Sheng Xian felt extremely sad, but he dared not say anything.
"He has great potential." Chu Jinyan glanced at him and said, "Now that he has money, it will be more justified for me to ask him for money."
Sheng Xian curled his lips and was not comforted.
"What about the Fifth Prince sending someone to assassinate you? How will His Majesty deal with it?"
"have no idea."
"Don't know? Your Highness, could you please pay more attention?" Sheng Xian suddenly raised his voice. The next moment he realized that he was in the palace, so he quickly closed his mouth and kept signaling with his eyes.
Chu Jinyan said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter whether Chu Shian is dead or alive, as long as this stumbling block never appears in front of me again."
What does immortality matter?
When he gains power, I will be the first to kill him.
It's just the difference between dying early or dying late.
And letting Chu Shian live in despair and watching the position of crown prince fall into his hands may not be a kind of torture.
His biggest rivals have never been the third, fifth and seventh brothers.
But Chu Shian's self-righteous jumping around was really an eyesore.
In fact, Chu Jinyan has always been suspicious of the second brother Chu Chengli. After all, he has Liu Xiang behind him and has the most connections, so it is easiest to investigate his identity. But he never expected that the first person to discover his identity would be Chu Shian.
He is much more sharp and intelligent than Chu Chengli, but unfortunately he has bad luck.
Chu Shian is the adopted son of Concubine Xian, and has the support of the entire Ji family behind him, but Pingliang Hou is slightly inferior to Liu Xiang in terms of power, status, and disciples. If Liu Xiang supports Chu Shian, it may be more difficult to deal with him.
Hu Qian came out one step behind Chu Jinyan, stood behind him and heard what the two said.
Giving the silver mine to the emperor just so that you can ask him for money with a clear conscience in the future?
Don't say it, the emperor will definitely give it to you.
According to this, the eighth prince gave the mine to the emperor, which not only pleased the emperor and achieved his own goal, but also saved a sum of money on mining.
There was also the assassination of the Fifth Prince. He complained to the Emperor and said that he did not need to explain. After all, the Fifth Prince was also the Emperor's son. At that time, the Emperor looked at the Eighth Prince with such heartache that he wished he could bring the Fifth Prince back from Changcheng and beat him half to death.
But now it seems that the Eighth Prince is clearly acting pitifully on purpose.
Hu Qian, who accidentally learned the truth, felt terrible, and his sympathy for Emperor Chengde was as overwhelming as the Yellow River.
Suddenly, a cold gaze fell on Hu Qian. Hu Qian came back to his senses with a start. Looking at Chu Jinyan's captivating yet murderous face, he swallowed hard.
He raised his hand and made a gesture of sewing his mouth shut.
Your Highness, I heard nothing.
Chu Jinyan was satisfied and turned around to leave with Sheng Xian.
"Your Highness, you are bullying Eunuch Hu again." Sheng Xian walked behind Chu Jinyan, looked back at Hu Qian and said with a smile.
Chu Jinyan gave him a blank look and said, "You're the one who kept asking me questions and wouldn't leave?"
Sheng Xian choked: "..."
"Go back and send the secret guard who assassinated me to the palace. I'm afraid my father won't be impressed just by reading his confession. It would be more touching if he hears it face to face."
Sheng Xian responded.
I thought to myself that Your Highness is clearly fanning the flames and is determined to beat the Fifth Prince to death.
…
After leaving Zhaocai Dufang, Lu Xiang went to Furong Pavilion. He originally wanted to take a look at the money house and pawnshop that he had just taken over, but it was already evening when he came out of Furong Pavilion, so he decided to go another day.
There are more than just these two shops that were taken over from the Xiao family. They are all temporarily managed by Qiao Zhiyan. He has been so busy during this period that he has almost no time to rest.
The carriage moved slowly on the street. When it passed Chunmanlou, the tempting fragrance wafted into the air.
A head popped in from outside, and Ah Man looked at Lu Xiang flatteringly: "Miss, do you smell the fragrance?"
What I mean is, let's go eat.
Lu Xiang: "Well, let's go to Chun Man Lou for dinner."
"Great." Ah Man clapped his hands happily, retracted his head and urged the driver to stop.
Lu Xiang got off the carriage, and Yun Zha and Wu Yue followed closely behind.
The master and his two servants walked towards Chunman Tower.
The waiter greeted the guest with a smile and asked, "Did you book a private room, Miss?"
"No, is there any vacant private room on the second floor?" Lu Xiang asked.
The waiter nodded: "Yes, yes, please follow me, young lady."
As he said this, he walked in front and took the person to the second floor.
Just as she reached the second floor, a hand suddenly appeared in front of Lu Xiang, blocking her way.
"Miss Lu San, I have long heard of your name."
The man looked at Lu Xiang with a grim smile.
Lu Xiang looked at the man in front of him with a frown.
Liu Chengyu!
It seems that he had seen her going upstairs a long time ago and was deliberately blocking her here.
"Thank you for the compliment, sir." Lu Xiang looked at him with a strange expression and said calmly.
She has never known Liu Chengyu in this life.
It can be said that although people in the capital knew about the second son of Prime Minister Liu's family, there were many people who had never seen him.
"Hehe, you are quite thick-skinned. Who praised you?" Liu Chengyu narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Xiang.
He had seen Lu Xiang's portrait, but now that he saw her in person, he realized that the portrait did not capture even one-third of her appearance.
The girl in front of him had bright eyes and white teeth, and was as beautiful as a fairy. Even her shameless look was extremely vivid and pretty.
