If it hadn't been for Xiao Jing's doing, who would have been so bold?

Furthermore, if nothing had happened to Song Xiuche, it would not have been Zuo Huaian's turn to be the head of the Household Department.

"Is it possible that the King of War also wants to participate in the fight for the heir apparent?" Zhao Ying couldn't help but become worried.

"Even if it's not to compete for the heirloom, maybe it's to pave the way for the prince."

Zeng Shangshu never thought that Xiao Jingzhi would fight for the throne, but what worried him was that Xiao Jingzhi would do this for Xiao Linjian.

"There's one thing I've never quite understood."

Zhao Ying was thinking, Xiao Jingzhi is the imperial uncle of Xiao Linjian and Xiao Linyou, why Xiao Jingzhi has a completely different attitude towards the two brothers.

Is it just because the emperor appointed the crown prince that Xiao Jingzhi pays special attention to and helps Xiao Linjian?

Zeng Shangshu snorted coldly: "To put it mildly, the emperor wants the King of War to assist the crown prince. To put it badly, it is because the King of War is thinking about his own future."

Because Xiao Jingzhi had sworn not to participate in the fight for the heirloom, he would not fight for the heirloom, but because of his own abilities, he would still make people fear him no matter what.

So Xiao Jingzhi had to hug someone's thigh tightly. In this way, when the prince ascends the throne in the future, he would have a chance to survive.

"But the third prince's ability is not inferior to that of the prince at all. Didn't King War think that the third prince would compare to the prince in the future?" Zhao Ying still didn't understand.

Zeng Shangshu sneered, "The emperor is following the prince. Judging from the current situation, the prince will naturally have more opportunities than the third prince."

But who can say for sure what will happen in the future?

If the third prince succeeds in his bid for the throne. Xiao Jingzhi still doesn't know how to deal with it.

Zhao Ying said nothing, but he always felt that Xiao Jingzhi was on the side of the prince and posed a great threat to the third prince.

"It seems that we can no longer let the War King go." Zeng Shangshu couldn't help but worry, "If the War King continues to help the Prince, all the forces in the court will one day turn against the Prince."

After all, Xiao Jingzhi's position in the court is unshakable.

"Your Majesty, do you mean to target the War King now?" Zhao Ying immediately understood the meaning of Zeng Shangshu's words.

Zeng Shangshu looked serious, "The plan we talked about before can be put into action."

Zhao Ying immediately agreed, "Don't worry, sir, I will handle this matter properly."

In addition to getting rid of Xiao Jingzhi, what Zeng Shangshu also needs to do is to finalize Xiao Linyou's marriage as soon as possible without delaying it any longer.

Later, Xiao Jingzhi received news from Xin Heng.

"Miss Shen threw Wei Yuan into the river today. I'm afraid he will definitely die."

Xiao Jingzhi sat under the verandah, staring at the chessboard.

"Look at the current chess game. No matter which move Black makes, he will definitely die. But if White makes the wrong move, Black will have room for maneuver."

Facing Xiao Jingzhi's explanation of the chessboard, Xin Heng immediately understood it.

"Your Majesty, what you mean is that Miss Shen's move was based on strength?"

If Shen Yunshu could not be so ruthless, it would not be easy to restore Liu's business to its glory days ten years ago.

Besides, Shen Yunshu was still young, and without some means, she couldn't make the old people in the business obey her.

Of course, the more important point is that if she doesn't kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, there will be people who have different intentions in the future.

"But if Wei Yuan really dies, Miss Shen will probably get into big trouble." Xin Heng was still a little worried.

Xiao Jingzhi dropped the white chess piece on the right hand side onto the chessboard, "Now the chess game has taken a new turn."

In other words, Shen Yunshu always acted in a measured manner, and she would not be so stupid as to actually kill Wei Yuan.

For example, in the case of Song Xiuche and Yang Wenbing, Shen Yunshu would not really kill them, as long as he achieved his goal.

After all, killing them would also bring unnecessary trouble to yourself.

Thinking about it, Shen Yunshu already knew that Wei Yuan was from King Qi, so he took the current countermeasures.

"Go and make arrangements. Make sure that no one from Zeng Shangshu's side can find any clues."

He just didn't want this incident to affect Shen Yunshu's next plans.

Xin Heng agreed and left.

Xiao Jingzhi rubbed the black chess piece on her left hand, but she couldn't help thinking in her mind. Did Shen Yunshu hate Song Xiuche for targeting Prince Qi's house, or did he have ulterior motives?

Here, next to the Linxian port outside the capital.

Shen Yunshu raised his eyes slightly and looked at the river. The chilling look in his eyes made people's hearts tremble.

She said coldly, "Pull up."

Soon, Wei Yuan, who was tied up and thrown into the river, was pulled up.

"Miss, I fainted." The young man came forward to report.

"Wake up!" There was no warmth in Shen Yunshu's tone.

Wei Yuan was hit with a few sticks and he woke up immediately.

He coughed a few times and spit out the river water he had sucked into his stomach.

"How does it feel to be on the verge of death?" Shen Yunshu's expression was calm, but exuding an irresistible aura.

Wei Yuan raised his head weakly, "Why?"

He didn't understand why Shen Yunshu treated him like this. In his opinion, Shen Yunshu had just taken over Liu's business and should not have known anything he did.

"Business requires integrity, respect and responsibility, but Boss Wei seems to have failed in any of them."

Although Shen Yunshu's voice was very plain, there was a dignity that could not be ignored.

"The eldest lady has just taken over Liu's business. How much does she know about the business?" Wei Yuan disagreed.

Shen Yunshu stood up and walked to Wei Yuan with a cold expression, "If I didn't know, you wouldn't have ended up like this today."

Wei Yuan couldn't help but shudder when he saw the cold expression on Shen Yunshu's face.

But he also knew in his heart that if he tried everything today, all the efforts he had made for so long would be in vain.

He couldn't help but smile and said: "In this business matter, how much is black and what is white, the eldest lady can't tell clearly."

"I don't care whether they are black or white, I only recognize what I recognize."

Shen Yunshu just wanted to take matters into her own hands in the business world, so it was up to her to say whether there was black or white.

"The eldest lady is still too young. Of course, it is undeniable that the reason why the eldest lady can say these words confidently is because of the confidence given by Mr. Liu. Without Mr. Liu, the eldest lady is nothing!"

Wei Yuan couldn't help but sarcastically, Shen Yunshu could get here effortlessly, she didn't need to pay anything at all.

And they have reached this point because of their own efforts.

"You are right. I am relying on my grandfather now, but the way forward, I have to rely on myself."

Shen Yunshu turned his back, "But when you do business, you betray your trust and even harm people's lives. Is this what you call confidence?"

Wei Yuan was startled, never expecting that Shen Yunshu could understand so thoroughly.

"Is the Cangzhou grain business a trap set by you?"
