When Chu Jingxing heard the news that Queen Fang had quarreled with Emperor Longqing because of the Fourth Prince, he was discussing matters with Princess Chang'an.
Princess Chang'an had already established connections with Liu Biping and was talking to Chu Jingxing: "The only person the Wei family can rely on in Fujian is the newly appointed prefect of Zhangzhou. The child should be temporarily entrusted to him. In addition to him, the eldest lady of the Wei family and Zhu Fang's two children are also there."
In this case, it makes more sense that the Wei family would entrust the child there.
Nanny Yuan explained the identity of the Zhangzhou prefect to them and added, "It's just that this Zhangzhou prefect is also a man who knows how to behave. I heard that he has a close relationship with the Minister of War, so even Liu Biping gave him some face."
It means it's difficult to deal with.
Chu Jingxing smiled and turned to look at Princess Chang'an, and said lightly: "Could it be that even you have no solution? Those assassins that Xie Er gave me should not have any difficulty in dealing with these things, right?"
Of course not. Princess Chang'an raised her chin in surprise and asked him, "You want to use the assassins? But didn't you say before that it would easily attract attention, so you don't allow them to be used?"
When she spoke to her son-in-law, she had somehow gotten into the habit of using honorifics.
But neither of them thought there was anything wrong.
Chu Jingxing shook his head, his face cold: "Liu Biping has already made preparations. What happened in Fujian will not be reported to the capital. Let's help him get rid of the trouble. He won't be so ignorant."
Princess Chang'an glanced at Nanny Yuan.
Nanny Yuan understood and went to get the token.
Princess Chang'an took advantage of this opportunity to tell him: "In this case, I will let Mr. Bai go directly to Fujian. He is reliable in doing things."
Chu Jingxing nodded in agreement, but he did not vent his anger on Mr. Bai because of his previous failure or have any opinion towards him.
After all these were explained, Princess Chang'an brought up the old matter again and talked about this incident: "Then, will there be any mistakes in the matter of the Prince of Zhennan this time?"
It wasn't just their people who made mistakes. Chu Jingxing also encountered all kinds of troubles and accidents when dealing with Shen Chen and Wei An.
When this was mentioned, Chu Jingxing's expression became a little subtle: "If there really is something wrong, it won't be a big deal."
Compared to what he was about to do, this was really no big deal.
He coughed and looked at his subordinates around him, and ordered in a deep voice: "Keep an eye on Shen Chen and Wei An, and pay attention to their movements at all times."
Princess Chang'an was even more confused by his actions and plans. She looked at him blankly, not knowing what he was up to. "Wei An and Shen Chen are not easy to deal with. You asked Zhao Er to assassinate Zhuang Rong, and Young Master Lin has already arrested him for interrogation. Doesn't that give them clues? How could they let it go? They will definitely investigate further. If they find out about Dong Siyuan..."
Chu Jingxing smiled complacently: "I just want them to check Dong Siyuan!"
The smile on his face seemed smug and determined: "Only if they find out about Dong Siyuan will they offend the Xiao family and let the Xiao family see clearly what my father's attitude is and what Shen Chen, who represents my father's attitude, is like towards them. The Xiao family has made enough money. If they are found out this time, it will be a serious crime. Even the King of Zhennan will be thrown into prison, and even if he offers the Red Book and Iron Certificate, he can't save his life, let alone the people of their Xiao family? Only then will they know my role and importance."
This is a great thing that kills two birds with one stone.
First, it helped the Xiao family a lot and found a perfect scapegoat for them. Second, it successfully delayed Wei An and Shen Chen.
If everything goes well, there's no need to wait for Shen Chen and Wei An to go to Fujian. These two people can be dealt with directly in Baoding.
Once Wei An and Shen Chen are dealt with, the remaining Wei family and Chu Jingwu will not be a concern at all.
As for King Zheng, he had already dug a trap waiting for him. He didn't even have time to pray for good luck, and he couldn't spare the energy to take care of Wei An.
Although Chu Jingxing did not say it explicitly, she could guess Chu Jingxing's purpose almost exactly by guessing.
Seeing that he was so sure, she didn't ask too much, and just changed the topic to Yuan Hongwen: "Don't worry about him, the marriage of the Xiao family will definitely be successful."
Whether it succeeds or not is not so important now. As long as he can solve the Xiao family's problem beautifully this time, the Xiao family will still owe him a huge favor. At that time, there will be no need to use Yuan Hongwen's marriage to maintain any relationship.
He nodded indifferently, and when he returned to the mansion, he asked Xianrong County Lady to rest first. He went to the study, opened the bookcase next to it, entered the secret passage through the secret door, came to a dark room, knocked on the door thirteen times, and then asked calmly: "What's the matter?"
The young man who showed half of his face from behind the bookcase frowned sarcastically, then smiled again: "It's just as you expected. When Young Master Lin takes action, is there anything he can't do? He found out Zhao Er's background in no time. He has already brought Zhao Er's lifeblood to the capital."
This was Chu Jingxing's purpose. He wanted Young Master Lin to tell Shen Chen and Wei An that the mystery and key to this matter were all in Baoding and on Dong Siyuan, and then let Shen Chen and Wei An go to Baoding.
He hummed, walked leisurely to sit opposite the boy, watched him flipping through the book, and didn't care much about his rudeness. He just asked, "Have you informed Dong Siyuan?"
The young man looked up from the book after a while, with a confused and surprised look on his face: "Notify what? Tell him that Wei An and Shen Chen are going to check on him, and ask him to be prepared?"
He immediately laughed, his handsome face tinged with a bit of teasing: "Don't you know his personality? If he knew the identities of Shen Chen and Wei An, would he have the courage to take action?"
Dong Siyuan is a person who bullies the weak and fears the strong. He is also extremely cunning and has never been willing to rely on anyone wholeheartedly. Even if it is against the Xiao family, he is always ready for a way out.
He really doesn't have the courage to accuse such a person of killing royal relatives.
Seeing Chu Jingxing frown, the young man knew that he had come to his senses, and laughed sarcastically: "It's better not to tell him anything. If he thinks that the people who come to investigate him are just ordinary people, do you think he will kill them? Once he kills them, even if their identities are discovered later, he can't turn back."
If you can't turn back, there's no such thing as a way out, right
