Chapter 152 The 3rd Prince's Action
Mu Wenyu suddenly realized that the Prime Minister's Mansion had been very unlucky recently. Was there someone behind the scenes?
As expected, we must push the third prince up as soon as possible to divert attention!
He looked at Mu Jinbai, Mu Jinxi and Mu Jinrong, and finally his eyes fell on the latter, "Did you notice anything wrong when you went to the guest room to change clothes?"
Mu Jinrong shook his head, not daring to look his father in the eye, so he just stared at the floor without looking up.
Mu Wenyu just thought that the fourth son was a little afraid of his tone, and did not think that he was the mastermind behind it.
After all, who at the age of four would dare to plot against his twenty-year-old brother?
After a moment of silence, Mu Wenyu waved his hand in annoyance, "You guys go back to the house first, I'll take care of these things. If this happens again next time, you'll have to solve it yourself!"
It was obvious that the six people were divided into two groups. The two groups were not even unfamiliar with each other. The expressions on both sides could be called enemies.
Lin Xueruo gently stroked her husband's back, "Husband, calm down. They were also plotted against by someone. It was not intentional. But who is plotting against the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
She diverted her husband's attention without leaving any trace, and she must not let what Jinrong did be discovered, otherwise she would lose the confidence to become her husband's wife.
She also needs the child Jinrong.
A cold light flashed in Lin Xueruo's eyes.
Mu Wenyu sighed, and suddenly hugged Xue Niang, his hand naturally resting on the back of Xue Niang's neck and stroking it.
Third Prince, please don't let me down.
Mu Tangxi and his elder brother separated from Mu Lianxue and the others at the gate of the study courtyard early in the morning.
She seemed to suddenly remember something and said to her eldest brother, "Brother, when I left you at the Princess's Mansion, I went to see where you fell. There happened to be a small piece of thin ice there, but not anywhere else!"
After hearing this, Mu Jinfeng's dark eyes were sinister for a moment, but he immediately returned to his gentle look, "Thank you for telling me this, sister. I will send someone to check it out first. Bye bye."
After Mu Tangxi glanced at his eldest brother's hurriedly leaving back, he turned to look at his second and third brothers and smiled, "Second brother and third brother, I'm a little tired today, so I'll go back to the yard first. Goodbye."
Mu Jinbai and Mu Jinxi were still thinking about the news their sister had just told them, and when they heard their sister say goodbye, they just responded casually.
Mu Tangxi turned his head and the emotion in his eyes was instantly wiped away, and he became indifferent.
Over the years, she had asked Shen Qiu to investigate many things and had not let him rest for more than three days.
So she knew everything about the capital city, but Mu Tangxi did not become arrogant.
She always treats her prey with caution, like a predator hiding in the dark, waiting for the weakest rabbit when it is most slack and weakest.
Who knows how many cards a person has?
Mu Tangxi doesn't want to capsize in the gutter!
Recently, Shen Qiu can "win over" neutral officials without leaving any trace.
Of course, it was not conventional persuasion, but rather the use of the evidence collected by Shen Qiu over the years to intimidate and induce.
They will understand. After all, the Third Prince is not a cruel person. He just doesn't have such a strong... presence.
The Third Prince has no close confidants and no power whatsoever. Apart from being born into a royal family and enjoying fine clothes and delicious food, he looks just like an ordinary citizen.
Therefore, it is somewhat difficult to persuade those officials to submit to the Third Prince. However, since the Emperor granted him the marriage to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Third Prince should be able to fight for it, right?
Mu Tangxi hesitated strangely for a moment, and then decided to leave it to Shen Qiu. She believed in Shen Qiu's magical ability and that he would be able to handle anything.
After she asked Dong Zhu to find Shen Qiu to handle the matter, she began to sort out the relationship network between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince in an orderly manner in the room.
At this moment, Ji Qichen also returned to the palace. After his first outing, he did not stay on the street outside and left for the palace.
It was also the first time that he found a lasting goal. He fought hard for Tangxi, at least to leave her something enough to save her life before he died!
Ji Qichen knew since he was a child, and was taught by others not to compete with his elder brother. He himself had no ambition, so he just went with the flow.
His father and mother had no expectations of him; all he wanted was to live a good life every day.
He was not a fool, so considering himself alone, he did not leave himself any way out.
It's just a death anyway, so it's better to die quickly and cleanly.
So Ji Qichen became the happiest and loneliest among the princes, and there was never anyone around to accompany him.
But human beings are afraid of loneliness, so Ji Qichen chose a study partner for himself who was neither noisy nor shrewd.
Ji Qichen always thought that he would not live to the age of getting married, but who would have thought that his father had always been in good health, resulting in the crown prince not being able to succeed to the throne, and the second prince also hid his own thoughts.
Ji Qichen was forced to get married. When he met Tangxi that day, he wanted to confess to her that he was uneducated and had no ambition.
But fate made him meet Tangxi, and he experienced a different feeling for the first time.
My heart was pounding, as if seeing Tangxi would make me feel... happy?
The word happiness is far away from Ji Qichen and out of reach, but at this moment it is very close.
Ji Qichen wanted to speak up and confess, but found that he couldn't say it at all. His body and mind rejected him.
He... didn't want to push away Tangxi's only chance to find happiness.
When Ji Qichen saw Tang Xi, he knew that she was partly similar to him.
People who have never been loved can always smell their own kind.
I think they will be in love with each other for the rest of their lives.
Ji Qichen fantasized like this, what does happiness look like?
Love at first sight is so unreasonable. I knew she was not a good person and that she did not love me, but she did not show it, did she?
As long as she doesn't break it all, Ji Qichen will ignore it.
Ji Qichen picked up a pen and wrote on a piece of letter paper, asking his companion to help him recruit some generals.
The Zhenbei General’s Mansion is related to him, the third prince, and also to Tangxi.
Therefore, even if they do not support him as the third prince, other forces will regard the Zhenbei General's Mansion as his force.
They couldn't help but say no!
Ji Qichen wrote slowly with a stern look in his eyes. At this moment, he finally looked like a prince, and the handwriting under his pen was so powerful that it could be seen through the paper.
After all, his companion was the heir to the general's mansion and was exercising all day long, so he would follow him when he was bored.
Now that his study partner has left and there is no more fun, Ji Qichen has started to stay at home and practice calligraphy in his free time.
