Chapter 1108: Plan
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
He was here to discuss Yellow Crane, and it was the first time he tried to speak with Ruxue about this.
When mom’s servant came to ask for enquiries to the Crown Prince’s Mansion the day before, Ruxue nodded with a yes, so he was here.
What was going on?
Gu Ruxue said impatiently, “I told you that if you want to get married, you have to choose the Second Lady of the Chu Family. She may be a concubine’s daughter, and not as n.o.ble as County Princess Anxi.”
“…”
!!
“Yet County Princess Anxi and Elder Princess are just wearing empty t.i.tles, and have no realistic powers. They only live under the Empress Dowager’s name. Look at County Princess Anxi, she is not in a good relations.h.i.+p with Gu Chaoyan, but County Princess Anxi did not dare to do anything about it.”
“…”
“The Second Lady of the Chu Family may be a concubine’s daughter, yet if you can marry her, the Crown Prince would receive the Chu Family’s support.”
“…”
“When the Crown Prince reaches his goal, you would be an Imperial family member, and if you don’t think that Second Lady of the Chu Family is good enough, you can marry someone else again instead.”
Hearing what Gu Ruxue said, Gu Yunhe looked helpless. “Ruxue, what are you talking about, I want Yellow Crane, which has nothing to do with County Princess Anxi. I just like Restaurant Jixian. If you don’t want me to get involved with County Princess Anxi, and Elder Princess, then help me to get Restaurant Jixian as well.”
“…”
“I will of course listen to your advice about who I am going to marry.”
“…”
“I just feel that Yellow Crane is too annoying and I don’t want Lord Huai to make so much money in the capital, so I would like to have it for myself. Yellow Crane might be mine on the surface, but the income will all be the Crown Prince’s, for his army!”
“…”
“I spent too much time at Pa.s.s, and I am unable to do anything in the capital. So if I can do this for the Crown Prince, then I will,” Gu Yunhe said seriously.
He sounded really devoted.
Hearing his words Gu Ruxue let out a sigh of relief.
That was what he meant…
She had thought that her brother had become so obsessed with the girl that he decided to drop the Second Lady of the Chu Family. Then her plan would not be achieved.
If that was the case… everything would get much easier.
They had thought about taking over Yellow Crane, yet they did not have enough power back then. However, now they did, and her brother mentioned that, so things would be much easier.
“I get it now. I will tell the Crown Prince about this, and he will arrange someone to help you!” Gu Ruxue promised with a look of relief. Then she remembered. “But before the Crown Prince makes the arrangement, you can just drop it. You can go to the Second Lady of the Chu Family, who is very happy to marry you. However, Prime Minister Chu is too stupid to understand the importance of marrying Second Lady of the Chu Family to you. If you don’t think that plan works, then you can just get the Second Lady of the Chu Family pregnant, and then she will have to marry you.”
Gu Yunhe understood what the plan was.
He smiled. “Then I will get down to do that!”
Gu Ruxue nodded.
Gu Yunhe went to speak with the Second Lady of the Chu Family, while she went into the study.
She did not even let anyone pa.s.s on the message but went in directly.
Zhou Huailing and Junyi were just talking about business when Gu Ruxue went in without warning. Zhou Huailing’s expression sank the moment he saw that.
