What Chu Jingxing lacks most now is money and manpower.
When he saw Princess Chang'an slowly writing the words "death warriors" on the paper, he felt that even his breathing quickened. Then he raised his head with a serious expression and stared at Princess Chang'an.
At that moment, even Princess Chang'an, the shrewd old fox, felt a pang in her heart.
She clearly saw the consideration in Chu Jingxing's eyes... and the murderous intent.
However, that bit of uncomfortable and shocking emotion was instantly suppressed by Chu Jingxing. He stretched out his slender fingers and touched the map that Mr. Bai had touched before. Then his eyes fell on the word "death warriors" and he suddenly smiled.
His smile came without warning and was somewhat gloomy. Even Princess Chang'an couldn't help but frown, wondering if she had said something wrong, and winked at Mr. Bai.
Mr. Bai coughed to clear his throat and started talking again: "What do you think, Prince? Excuse me, this is a deal that is sure to win... It would be a pity not to do it..."
Chu Jingxing sat down leisurely on the gooseneck chair, crossed his arms and said "oh" leisurely, and then said slowly after a while: "Is it a sure win?"
He looked at Princess Chang'an, but he was talking to Mr. Bai: "Why didn't I see that this was a sure win deal? I've only heard of death warriors in rumors. Now... which family dares to openly say that they have death warriors?"
He smiled with two dimples, and looked at Mr. Bai and Princess Chang'an as if he was sighing: "Aunt, do you want to help me or hurt me?"
Princess Chang'an stared at him and smiled: "How could I harm you?"
She said, "You will be my son-in-law from now on. Would I harm my own daughter?"
Chu Jingxing lowered his head to look at his round and slender fingers, and shook his head with a nonchalant hum: "It's not impossible, aunt, otherwise why would you not keep such a good thing for Hong Wen, but think of me? Isn't it because the risk of this matter is huge, so you want to push me to the front desk to operate, and when something goes wrong, you can just pat your butt and leave?"
Chu Jingxing's words were merciless, interrupting Mr. Bai's attempt to interrupt, and he immediately sneered: "Who are you taking for a fool?"
Mr. Bai hurriedly shook his head: "Your Highness really misunderstood! How could Her Royal Highness the Princess treat you like this..."
Chu Jingxing waved his hand to interrupt him again, and laughed without giving him much face: "What's so shameful about this? People die for money and birds die for food. Isn't my aunt just casting a net everywhere? Have you seen something?"
He nodded in the direction of the imperial city.
Princess Chang'an fell silent.
Mr. Bai was also a little embarrassed.
Chu Jingxing turned out to be such a sharp and hard-to-fool person------but this shouldn't be the case. This person could be so stupid as to frame his brothers, disregard the interests of the palace, and send information to the enemy. How could he be so smart
Chu Jingxing glanced at them coldly and said, "Let's be frank. I know what aunt means. She just sees that the situation between the two little princes is getting worse..."
Yes, Princess Chang'an has deep eyes.
She had originally thought of only investing in Emperor Longqing, after all, the King of Chu had been killed and the government was stable. But she soon realized something was wrong - Empress Fang and Concubine De were already at odds with each other, and even the relationship between the two little princes was turbulent.
If this continues, it is only a matter of time before the tragedy of the Third Prince happens to the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince.
And if anything happens to the two little princes, what good will it do, no matter how capable Emperor Longqing is, if he has no heir
If you have no descendants, the throne will be passed on to others.
Who will sit
The King of Jin is not worthy of being a coward, and the King of Zheng is even worse off, now he doesn't even have a child.
The King of Qin was tyrannical and had long lost the support of the people. He spent his days in drunkenness and debauchery.
There is only one King Linjiang.
He endured humiliation and was able to bend and stretch, and as a powerful vassal he did not arouse the disgust of Emperor Longqing.
Not everyone has this ability.
That's why she invested in Prince Linjiang.
But I don't want to invest too much, just the right amount would be best. After all, I have to leave a way out for myself.
But I didn't expect that it would be so difficult to keep a way out.
It turns out that Chu Jingxing is also a slippery eel.
I really misjudged it.
Chu Jingxing had already started laughing, and then he changed his expression again: "I'm just teasing you, aunt." He said, his eyes shining again: "Such a good business, how could I not do it?"
Princess Chang'an did not feel very happy. She looked at Mr. Bai and saw wariness and vigilance in each other's eyes. Chu Jingxing was not teasing them, but clearly warning them that he knew everything about them.
At the same time, he was also telling them that he knew clearly about the remaining forces of the previous King of Chu, and everyone had a share, so no one could escape.
Once someone sees through my intentions, this deal doesn't seem so good.
Princess Chang'an lowered her eyes.
Chu Jingxing was the first to speak: "Where is my cousin now?"
Mr. Bai was shocked.
Chu Jingxing's eyes had regained their previous coldness, and he reminded coldly but with thunderous force: "The people of King Chu are not fools. If there were no one to command them, wouldn't they have scattered long ago? I'm afraid Chu Jingcong is related to this group of people, right?"
Princess Chang'an and Mr. Bai did not say anything, obviously agreeing with his statement.
Chu Jingxing said in a deep voice: "Since he can come out to discuss a deal with us, it means that his power has been almost eaten away by his subordinates. In this case, keeping him here will only cause trouble."
Mr. Bai and Princess Chang'an had thought of this a long time ago.
Chu Jingxing then said, "I want to see the person alive or the body dead. After all, Chu Jingcong is a wanted criminal of the imperial court. If there is an accident, it is no joke. Aunt, I think my eldest cousin has nothing to do. Why don't you let him go? It will be more reassuring, right?"
Let Yuan Hongwen go? !
Princess Chang'an looked at Chu Jingxing coldly.
Chu Jingxing was not afraid at all: "This is because my cousin is my own family and I can trust him completely. Doesn't my aunt think so?"
Princess Chang'an lowered her head and shook her head after a while: "Hong Wen is inexperienced and cannot be helped. He is not capable of taking on such a big task."
"That's right. If you haven't started a family and established a career, you're always immature." Chu Jingxing smiled and changed the subject: "How about this, I can help my cousin find a match? I happen to have a candidate here, and she must be a perfect match for my cousin. If they can get together, they will definitely be a perfect couple in the future."
