Chapter 59 Good Brothers
In the imperial study room of the palace, Emperor Yan was handling official business when the shadow appeared again. Although Liu Fu was startled by his sudden appearance, he was already used to it.
Emperor Yan put down the official business in his hands, looked up at the shadow in front of him, and waited for his report with burning eyes.
"Your Majesty, the Eighth Prince used only one poem to merge the two armies. Now, his private soldiers get along well with each other, and are eager to fight!"
After hearing Shadow's report, Emperor Yan's emotionless eyes suddenly showed a hint of appreciation and joy. The corners of his mouth curled up.
"Where's the poem?" He said to the shadow calmly.
Shadow quickly took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it over respectfully. Emperor Yan took the paper and saw the contents on it. His originally calm eyes suddenly lit up with brilliance.
"Good...good poem! My son is good...haha...Shadow, tell me the details!" Emperor Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
He also handed over the Black Robe Army to Jiang Fan with the intention of testing Jiang Fan. He wanted to see how his son could tame these people and deal with the conflicts between them.
But now it seems that my test is too easy for my son. My son's methods are really amazing.
Others would only be afraid of the headache, but he wrote a poem and easily solved it. Even he would be excited when he saw the poem. He was ready to lead a group of comrades to fight bravely. War poem!
Listening to Shadow's description of how Jiang Fan subdued the Black Robe Army and how the two armies got along well, Emperor Yan nodded in satisfaction, with a smile on his face.
In addition to Emperor Yan, people in other parts of the capital who were still waiting to see Jiang Fan's good show also received the news from the military camp.
When they heard that Jiang Fan would merge the two armies, they were all stunned and stood there, not coming to their senses for a long time.
They couldn't believe that this was the prince who was once a waste, but now he was so powerful.
The eldest prince smashed everything in the house and killed several of his servants. Only then did his anger gradually subside.
He just couldn't understand how Jiang Fan, who was a loser before, could turn things around and become so powerful, and now he was increasingly valued by his father.
If he continued like this, he would lose the chance to get that position sooner or later. The more he thought about it, the more anxious and worried he became.
Just based on the importance his father placed on Jiang Fan today, it is possible that this most insignificant and useless prince will be the one to inherit the throne in the end.
Not only him, but the remaining princes were also panicking. Some of their dependent court officials secretly went to look for him.
On the eldest prince's side, Ye Ren and Huang Zhenren came to the eldest prince's mansion, and the three of them were gathered in the study.
The eldest prince looked at the two people in front of him, one was his grandfather, and the other was a first-rank official who was dependent on him. In fact, because of the help of these two people, he was the most powerful prince in the court.
He has the best chance of ascending the throne in the future, but now Jiang Fan has appeared, and the Chu family has a tendency to be tied together with Jiang Fan. Once the two parties are successfully tied together, Jiang Fan's chance of ascending the throne will be greater than his.
"Grandpa, Minister Huang, what should we do now? Jiang Fan is becoming more and more powerful. If we tie him to the Chu family, I'm afraid we will have no chance."
Jiang Yi looked at the two people in front of him and said, his expression was ugly and his eyes were full of madness.
"Can we take this opportunity to get rid of him during the Huainan incident?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Ren frowned, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, while Huang Zhenren's eyes were sharp with murderous intent.
"My Lord, this trip to Huainan is indeed a good opportunity to get rid of Jiang Fan. If this boy is not eliminated, he will pose the greatest threat to you. In addition to floods, Huainan is also plagued by bandits and rioters affected by the disaster. There are plenty of opportunities to kill him!"
At the end, Huang Zhenren's eyes showed a vicious look.
Jiang Fan had cheated him out of 1.6 million taels of silver, which had seriously damaged his vitality. Now his family was living frugally and living a tight life. How could he not be angry!
When he got home, he beat his two sons so hard that their buttocks were bruised and now they are lying in bed resting. He hates Jiang Fan to death.
The eldest prince nodded and looked at his grandfather Ye Ren. Although he was tempted by the idea, he wanted to hear his grandfather's opinion.
After all, Emperor Yan values Jiang Fan now, and if he does too much, it will not be good for him. It might even backfire.
Ye Ren's eyes were slightly cold. He nodded and said, "Even if Your Majesty paid attention to the trip to Huainan, it was too far away to do anything. As Minister Huang said, Huainan is not only plagued by bandits, but also rioters. The death of the prince at the hands of bandits and rioters is not our fault."
"Moreover, even if he is lucky enough to come back alive, he will lose the bet with Chu Yan'er. He and the Chu family cannot get along. We will find another opportunity to kill him. There is still a long way to go, so don't worry!"
Jiang Yi's gloomy expression eased a lot after hearing this, and a smile appeared on his face. He nodded.
At the residences of the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince, the court officials who were affiliated with them also suggested assassinating Jiang Fan by taking advantage of the riots and banditry.
Only in the Sixth Prince's mansion, there was no movement, not even any court officials came to visit. This prince seemed very low-key.
If he were not a prince, no one would even think of putting him in the queue for the throne.
He really has very little sense of presence, just like his ranking, sixth!
Jiang Fan didn't know that the princes were plotting against him. In fact, he knew without any guessing that the princes would not let him go easily. The better he performed, the greater the danger he would face.
But Jiang Fan couldn't keep a low profile, because, from the moment he saved himself, he was destined to not be able to keep a low profile. He actually wanted to develop in a low profile.
But after showing enough excellence, can he still grow in a shabby way? If he really thinks so, it is estimated that Emperor Yan will pay less attention to him. It is even more impossible to get the recognition of the Chu family.
Given his current situation and strength, this could be fatal. Without help, it would definitely be a dead end.
However, being high-profile brings dangers everywhere, and he can only face all dangers one by one with difficulty. If he really dies one day, he will not regret it. At least, he has fought hard!
Jiang Fan drank with the soldiers until he was drunk and fell asleep in the barracks. The soldiers were also drunk, but most of them were still rational.
Among them, Chu Chengrui was the most rational, Chu Chengxiong was drunk as a dog, and even Chu Xinghe was drunk and unconscious.
Yes, the old man had the audacity to attend the party.
When they were drinking with Jiang Fan, the two of them used the drinking boxing technique and acted like brothers. Even Chu Chengxiong and Chu Xinghe were acting like brothers, calling each other "bros"!
Chu Chengrui, who had been restraining himself from drinking, couldn't bear to watch Jiang Fan and Chu Chengxiong being so close to his father.
Chu Chengrui was thinking, when his father woke up, would he beat his seventh brother to the point of paralysis? He ran after Jiang Fan with a big knife in his hand.
Moreover, what would happen if his sister heard about the good relationship between the two brothers? The son-in-law and the father-in-law are the only two brothers who are good to each other.
