Chapter 224 Wen Shao's Scheme: A Preview of the Succession Struggle



"Are you finally going to send me to destroy Chen Luo?"

At this time, Tang Xiwei had lost more than ten kilograms compared to the previous few months, and she looked extremely thin.

However, in contrast, her aura and resentment were no longer comparable to what they used to be.

To put it more concretely, she transformed from a pure and naive green tea into a ruthless black lotus.

"Yes, we are indeed sending you out, but this time, you are just one of the many."

"Ningxi, this time you will be in charge, taking the third and ninth brothers, along with Tang Xiwei, to the central market."

"The central market?"

"Wasn't it said that the situation over there had already deteriorated to a state of chaos?"

"It seems the young master doesn't have any businesses over there, does he?"

During this period, under Ning Xi's tutelage, Tang Xiwei learned a great deal of knowledge and gained a comprehensive understanding of the domestic situation, as well as the power and influence of Wen Shao's forces.

At this moment, Ningxi spoke to Tang Xiwei in a teacher's tone to explain.

"You only know one side of the story, not the other. The current turmoil in the central market is all the work of the young master, who wants to fish in troubled waters and swallow up the entire central market."

As Ning Xi narrated, Tang Xiwei's eyes gradually widened, revealing a look of shock.

It turns out that the current chaotic situation in the central market is entirely a scheme orchestrated by Wen Shao.

The seemingly foolish and impatient Luo family's third young master, who was exploited by foreign companies, was actually the result of Wen Shao's and Luo family's eldest son's scheming, which led to a misjudgment and a major mistake.

At that time, the third young master of the Luo family was gaining more and more power in the family, and it could be said that he was overshadowing everyone else. The head of the Luo family had already realized that he wanted to change the successor.

At this time, the eldest son of the Luo family received Wen Shao's cooperation, which led to the situation where the third young master of the Luo family mistakenly invited foreign spies in. Then, the eldest son of the Luo family withdrew in time to return to the family and give timely warnings to reduce the losses. Only after getting his own third brother into trouble was he able to keep his position as heir.

Of course, in the process, Wen Shao also gained a lot of benefits from the Luo family, which actually weakened the Luo family's strength.

Then Wen Shao secretly sent people to contact those foreign companies, providing them with intelligence and continuously damaging the strength of the other eight families, while also stirring up trouble in the central market.

It can be said that the current situation in the central market is entirely caused by Wen Shao.

The situation in the central region has deteriorated to this point, and the strength of all the major families has been greatly weakened. Meanwhile, the external forces are gradually shrinking their battle lines under the attack from the central government. It is a time when both sides are exhausted.

Now he sent Ningxi and others there, aiming to clear out the entire board.

Once Wen Shao monopolizes the central market, with such great achievements and such immense power, no one in the Wen family will be able to compete with him, and the battle for the throne can be decided ahead of schedule.

"Young Master, you strategize within the command tent and win battles a thousand miles away."

"The Luo family, external forces, and the other eight major families have all become pawns in the hands of the young master."

After praising Wen Shao's flawless strategy, Tang Xiwei asked in confusion.

"I just don't understand. Since it's a clean sweep and Sister Ningxi is in charge, I'm afraid my role won't be very significant. Didn't you want to send me to deal with Chen Luo?"

As she said this, she glanced at Ning Xi, her eyes showing not the fear she had felt when facing Bai Shiya, but only a deep admiration and an overwhelming sense of powerlessness.

Ningxi seems to have no flaws or weaknesses, not even the slightest emotional fluctuation, making it impossible to feel jealousy.

She studied under such a woman for so long, and her progress can be described as rapid.

No wonder she became Wen Shao's second most trusted confidante and one of the few mistresses to whom Wen Shao truly invested his feelings.

"Yes, there is a reason why I sent you there. My sister Wen Wan and her man Chen Luo are going to enter the central market, and they seem to have big ambitions."

As Wen Shao spoke, his eyes narrowed slightly, a clear murderous intent flashing within them.

I remember a few days ago, my father, Wen Tao, returned home from a trip, looking very happy.

Wen Shao stepped forward and asked him why he was happy. Wen Tao told him frankly that he had gone to the southeast to see Wen Wan and Chen Luo.

His words were full of admiration for Chen Luo and recognition of Wen Wan's current achievements.

This made Wen Shao's heart sink. He knew all the details of Wen Wan's victory over Yelena, and he had to admit that it was indeed a beautifully fought battle.

He never expected to be seen as such a high level by his own father, who praised Chen Luo, the actual planner of this battle, repeatedly, even using the term "good son-in-law".

To be honest, in all these years, Wen Shao had never seen his father praise a young man so much, and he himself had never received praise from his father so many times.

This set off alarm bells in Wen Shao's mind, and he felt a strong sense of crisis.

Could it be that Father will choose Wen Wan as his successor because he favors Chen Luo?

At this time, Wen Tao instructed Wen Shao to send Chen Luo into the central market as a test. If he could pass the test, he could truly become the son-in-law of the Wen family.

Upon hearing this, Wen Shao understood that this was deliberately done by his father, Wen Tao, in order to reignite the conflict between him and Wen Wan.

This was clearly intended to make the central market a battlefield for the two siblings to fight it out; Wen Tao wanted to test their mettle.

Faced with this blatant attempt to incite conflict, Wen Shao had no choice but to accept it without question.

That's why he's now sending a few of his top confidants to the central market to pave the way, while he himself will go to the central market to take command when the time is right.

This can be considered the final rehearsal for the battle for the throne.

Whoever wins will have the biggest advantage before the formal struggle for succession!

"good!"

Tang Xiwei let out a low shout, clenched her fists tightly, and spoke in an extremely venomous voice.

"Young Master, please hand over all the plans for dealing with Chen Luo to me!"

"I will repay him ten thousand times, a hundred thousand times, for all the humiliation and harm I have suffered these past few months!"

"Well, the enemy has already sent out their vanguard. You try dealing with them first, Ningxi. You'll be in charge of the on-site command."

This time, Wen Shao was obviously much more cautious, sending out his most cautious subordinate, Ning Xi, in order to quickly gain a foothold and prepare for an unprecedented decisive battle with Wen Wan in the central market!

The winner takes all, the loser perishes!

...

Meihua Village, Xiye Town, Jinfeng County.

Chen Luo stood at the door of his old house, stunned for a long time, before finally blurting out a curse.

Holy crap!

"This, this is my home?"
