Fendai Weiyang

Chapter 222 Because of Belief
"Second brother, you still haven't had contact with King Ning, and you don't know his true temperament."

Qian Fei poured Xia Qianzhen a cup of tea with a bamboo green teapot and handed it over.

"Brother, do you still remember the previous catastrophe in Jinxi? Husband probably mentioned it to my brother. The catastrophe was only because King Ning wanted to seize the opportunity to search Jinxi. People's lives were ruined, and how many families were destroyed?"

"Regarding this, does King Ning feel a little unbearable? Not at all."

"So for King Ning, there are only two types of people, those who are useful and those who are useless. Useless people are worthless in King Ning's eyes. If you really cooperate with brother and let King Ning's property collapse, what will happen to him?"

Qian Fei is afraid even thinking about it, King Ning is not so kind, and he will let it go when it is useless?Jiang Liran knew so many things about King Ning, how dare King Ning let him go?

Then there must be only one end...

"So in order to save my life, my husband will definitely do his best to keep King Ning's business. At that time, he will only startle the snake and make King Ning notice us. The end will be equally miserable."

Xia Qianzhen and Xu Ping listened quietly, and it took a long time before they could speak.

"How about that?"

Qian Fei smiled, "How would I know? But all I know is that if you want to save your husband, you have to completely overthrow King Ning and make him no longer have any power to threaten. Therefore, Second Brother and Xu Ping, you may as well The means don't need to be so drastic, how about just helping Prince Rui manage more and giving Prince Rui more chips to win?"

"..."

Xu Ping frowned, "Isn't this going to make things difficult for King Ning? It's just a different way of saying it."

"How can it be the same?" Qian Fei spread her hands, "You don't have to put all your eggs in one basket, and you won't attract Prince Ning's attention. After all, how many capable people does Prince Rui still have in his hands?"

"So our purpose of coming to the capital is actually to secretly become Prince Rui's power?"

"Hmm..., when the time comes, Prince Rui will be honored when he achieves great success, will you feel more comfortable thinking about it that way?"

"..."

Xu Ping looked at Qian Fei inexplicably, so what's the difference?
They're just businessmen, businessmen!It's not an imperial merchant, so why do you need to participate in it?
Qian Fei's eyes wandered, she actually didn't quite understand it, but she really had to fight more in front of Prince Rui, at least she had to save Prince Rui's life first.

……

When Prince Rui wrote again, Qian Fei decided to recommend her second elder brother and Xu Ping.

Xia Qianzhen couldn't figure out the pros and cons for a while, but Prince Rui really reused the two of them, which was beyond their expectation.

"Prince Rui trusts you so much, what did you say to Prince Rui? Is the news Jiang Liran got from Prince Ning really so important?"

"Important, very important."

Qian Fei nodded affirmatively, telling Xia Qianzhen not to care about these small things, since Prince Rui asked them to do these things, then they should do it, and if they did it well, they would naturally be credited.

Fighting for the crown prince is very far away for Qian Fei, and she doesn't know how to do it.

Only from the news that Hai Yuanlu brought back from time to time, Qian Fei could know a general direction.

Prince Rui's voice is getting louder and louder, if there are no accidents, maybe after a while, the emperor will appoint Prince Rui as the crown prince.

But what Qian Fei is afraid of is this "accident".

Since Prince Rui is so sure, Prince Ning's idea of ​​killing him will become more determined, and it will be harder to guard against it.

But how did Prince Rui die?
Qian Fei was puzzled and wondered what kind of loopholes would appear in the defense that was as solid as an iron bucket around Prince Rui.

At this moment, Shixianglou asked someone to send a letter, asking them if the ancient family had more unique spices.

"What does it mean?"

Xia Qianzhen knew that Jiang Liran's letter was definitely not what it was on the surface, so she waited for Qian Fei's answer.

"..."

Qian Fei finished reading the letter and looked at the ceiling for a full moment before speaking slowly.

"Husband unexpectedly guessed that you have become Prince Rui's helper. What he meant was to ask you to release some water. It is best to make Prince Rui suffer a bit."

"...Why?"

Qian Fei thought for a while, "Probably, it can make your husband more respectful, so that it is easier to get news about King Ning?"

"……Bar?"

Qian Fei nodded heavily, and read the letter again.

Jiang Liran couldn't say so much, he only conveyed one meaning, which made Prince Rui suffer.

Qian Fei actually didn't know why, according to Hai Yuanlu, the more it was like this, the more he couldn't relax his vigilance.

Now that Prince Rui's momentum is high, shouldn't he take advantage of the victory to pursue and establish his position in one fell swoop?

But to make Prince Rui suffer, isn't that just to give Prince Ning a chance?
Xia Qianzhen is not so innocent as to believe Qian Fei's words, it is indeed good for Jiang Liran to want to be valued more, but for someone like Ning Wang, a little chance means a comeback, Jiang Liran will not be unaware.

When the time comes, Prince Rui's great situation will disappear, and the two sides will continue to contend, won't they be uncertain?
"Second brother, I believe in my husband, he probably has his own ideas when he says this, why don't we do it first?"

"..."

Xia Qianzhen didn't agree immediately, he couldn't decide this matter alone, so he found an opportunity to discuss it with Xu Ping and Hai Yuanlu.

"No! You can't act so hastily. Prince Rui's current situation has not come easily, and there is no room for negligence at all, to take the initiative to make some mistakes? What exactly do you want to do?"

Hai Yuanlu directly denied it without even thinking, "Prince Rui is walking on thin ice right now, and it's too late to fight every bit of it, what's Jiang Liran's idea?"

"Brother Hai, don't be impatient. Brother Jiang just wants to be trusted by King Ning, so that he can get some news."

"What news? Now, as long as Prince Rui is smooth and smooth, he has the chance to win, what news does he need? Could it be that Prince Ning still has the guts to plan to assassinate the blood of the royal family?"

"This……"

What Hai Yuanlu said was also right, as long as Prince Rui made no mistakes, the throne would not be lost, so there was no need for Jiang Liran to inquire about anything from King Ning.

"Brother Xia, don't you think it's strange? With Brother Jiang's ability, even if you don't play tricks, he will not be inferior to you, but Brother Jiang so clearly asks you to show weakness... What exactly is your intention?"

Xu Ping on the side held his head and sneered.

"Young Master Hai, do you mean that my eldest brother did this on purpose, so that he could contribute to King Ning and support King Ning to the throne?"

"Is there no such possibility?"

Hai Yuanlu asked back, "King Ning already trusts Brother Jiang very much, and you all know that. Although King Ning has a perverse and brutal temperament, he actually values ​​Brother Jiang very much. In this way, it is not surprising that Brother Jiang is subdued. .”

"In addition, Brother Xia mentioned that the previous ritual of offering sacrifices to heaven was also sent by Brother Jiang to make Prince Rui give up. If it wasn't for the thunder and lightning, the situation would be completely different from what it is now. Could it be that Brother Jiang could have predicted this vision? Asking Qian Fei to stop Prince Rui is not to let Prince Ning gain prestige?"

"..."

Xu Ping still sneered, but he couldn't refute it.

Just like what Hai Yuanlu said, if there was no thunder and lightning, and King Ning completed the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven smoothly, then King Ning would sacrifice to heaven instead of the prince.

In this way, there will be more forces supporting King Ning in accordance with the holy will.

"I don't want to speculate on Brother Jiang like this. It's just one thing after another. Haven't you guys thought about this possibility?"

Hai Yuanlu's expression was dignified, "King Ning doesn't easily rely on others. Brother Jiang has such blue eyes, and the grievance in his heart may have disappeared. If he helps King Ning achieve a great cause, the credit will be even more incomparable. How can such a successful and famous thing be done?" Enjoy it instead of doing it?"

"That's just your guesswork."

"It's really just a guess, but it's very possible, and we have to guard against it."

"How to prevent?" Xu Ping curled his lips, "If elder brother is really loyal to Prince Ning, wouldn't it be a joke for us to stand by Prince Rui? Prince Ning will not let people go easily, do you think my elder brother is the kind of willing A person who has been subordinated to others all his life and dedicated his life?"

"..."

Sitting on the grand teacher's chair on one side, Xia Qianzhen pursed her lips, poured a cup of tea from the teapot, and handed them to the two of them respectively.

"It's all in discussion. Don't be impatient, you two. This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run. Don't hurt your peace."

Hai Yuanlu sighed, took the teacup from Xia Qianzhen, and calmed down.

Xu Ping also reached out, but after taking it, he drank it down and returned the cup.

"I'll do what Big Brother wants. After all, I'm inferior to Big Brother, so I won't be brave enough to forcefully make an excuse that doesn't exist. You can decide for yourself, Brother Xia."

After speaking, Xu Ping left the meeting room.

"This is too casual!"

Hai Yuanlu was so angry that he put down the teacup heavily, he rarely lost his composure like this, but this time he was really in a hurry.

"Does he know that this is a big deal? Jiang Liran does what he says? Prince Rui is the kind of person he can shake casually?"

Xia Qianzhen smiled apologetically. Speaking of which, he was also in a dilemma.

Just do it, what Hai Yuanlu said is not completely unreasonable, but if you don't do it, it will be bad if it hinders Jiang Liran's plan.

"Brother Xia, you have always been sensible. This time you came to Beijing for the sake of Mrs. Jiang Shao. Think about it first, can you really help Qian Fei by doing this? Brother Jiang is still in the heart of the one who treated Qian Fei back then." The appearance of loving in every possible way?"

"..."

Xia Qianzhen couldn't tell the rest, but... why did Hai Yuanlu yell "Qian Fei Qian Fei"?
Didn't you always call Qian Fei "Mrs. Jiang Shao"?

Xia Qianzhen's eyes flickered, "I understand Brother Hai's concerns in my heart, and I will think about it again."

……

Xia Qianzhen couldn't let Xia Qianzhen think about it.

After Qian Fei "accidentally" learned about the process of their discussion from Xu Ping, she went straight to find Xia Qianzhen.

Using her firm stance and willful temper as means, she successfully persuaded Xia Qianzhen to do what Jiang Liran wanted.

"A Fei, I did this because of your request, but if the time comes..., no matter what the consequences are, you promise me that you can't lose all hope. If it's really not possible, go back to Jinxi with my second brother, even if there is no Jiang Li. However, we can live a good life."

"……,it is good."

……

When Hai Yuanlu knew about this, it was said that it had already achieved initial results.

Even Prince Rui sent a letter to confirm with Qian Fei, after all Xia Qianzhen and Xu Ping were recommended by her.

Prince Rui didn't know where he knew that Xia Qianzhen and Xu Ping did it on purpose, so before he was held accountable, he first asked Qian Fei if she knew about it.

Qian Fei took it all in one gulp, and directly asked Prince Rui to keep a low profile and not to suppress Prince Ning too much.

When Hai Yuanlu came to ask again, Qian Fei admitted with a smile that she begged Xia Qianzhen to do this.

"Young Madam, why are you doing this? You know that the risk is extremely high, but you still..."

"Because I trust my husband."

With just one sentence, all Hai Yuanlu's subsequent questions were blocked.

Because she believed in Jiang Liran, she followed Jiang Liran's seemingly inappropriate request without even questioning it...

Hai Yuanlu was slightly sad, but he couldn't help worrying about Qian Fei, so he trusted Jiang Liran without any hesitation. If it was true as he guessed, Jiang Liran didn't want to go back to Jinxi, and didn't want to be an ordinary businessman anymore At this time, will the blow Qian Fei will suffer be unbearable for her...

"Thank you Mr. Hai for being so considerate of the little girl. It's just that the little girl firmly believes in her husband's decision. She never thought that there would be other possibilities, and there will be no other possibilities."

"...Since the young lady said so..., I have troubled myself..."

"Mr. Hai is only thoughtful, and the little girl is only grateful."

Qian Fei thanked her thoughtfully, and her etiquette was thoughtful, which made Hai Yuanlu feel a little disappointed.

But what can he say?Qian Fei was heartbroken afterwards, and that was her own choice.

But involving His Highness Prince Rui... Hai Yuanlu still felt a little anxious.

Although the Hai family is not involved in party disputes, Hai Yuanlu has always stood by Prince Rui's side. Compared with the brutal King Ning, Hai Yuanlu supports Prince Rui's ruling, which is more beneficial to the prosperity of the country.

If it was because of Jiang Liran that Prince Rui lost in the end...

Hai Yuanlu didn't dare to think about what kind of situation would happen...

******************************
After Hai Yuanlu left, Xia Qianzhen thought that it was time to have a good talk with Qian Fei.

Qian Fei stayed in her yard, stroking her lower abdomen lightly with her hand, while listening to Xia Qianzhen's deliberate tone and telling her that Hai Yuanlu had a crush on her...

"Second brother, you have too much confidence in my sister, don't you? Although I was born as beautiful as a flower, I can't be loved by everyone. I'm already married and pregnant. What's so attractive about me?"

"Why not! My sister is just attractive."

"Brother..., do you want this to happen or not..."

"..."

Xia Qianzhen pursed her lips, "I also know it's absurd, but my feeling is rarely wrong. Hai Yuanlu does have different emotions for you."

"Then I will avoid it from now on?"

"That's...not very good, after all, Brother Hai is also working hard for Brother Jiang's affairs."

"Then I'll talk to him about it?"

"You are a daughter's family, how do you say this kind of thing?"

"What should I do?"

Qian Fei asked Xia Qianzhen amusedly, whether this is okay or that is okay, so the second elder brother just said that he would be troubled along with him?
