Chapter 235 Countermeasures
Originally, Han Jiangxue was not sure why the Liu family would use such a method to control Han Duan, but it turned out that it was the prince's idea.
He had just met the Crown Princess earlier, and this time he used such a move. It seems that the Crown Prince also knew that he could not achieve his goal with just a few words. And the Crown Prince's move was considered powerful, if it was not a mistake.
I was so surprised that if Mr. Liu knew from his childhood that the person behind the scenes was actually the prince, I'm afraid everyone in the Han family would think that everything was behind the emperor's back.
The prince decisively did not want the three kings and four families to deliver the money to the emperor as scheduled, and the stronger the conflict between the three kings and the four families and the emperor, the more useful it would naturally be to him. That's why the prince spent so much time and trouble in the middle.
Working hard to fan the flames to better achieve his goals.
This is really a wolf in the front and a tiger in the back. No matter what, as long as the Dongming royal family is here, the unlucky ones will be the three kings and four families, all of them!
They had to resist the emperor, and they could not just let him control them so honestly, but they also absolutely could not follow the prince's wishes and let the prince gain any advantage from it.
Due to the prince's unscrupulous behavior and his extremely dark and selfish character, once he seized the real power and ascended to the throne, the three kings and four families still had nothing to gain.
In the evening, Han Feng and Han Jing came back, and Mo Li came with them.
Han Jiangxue asked what brought Mo Li here, but she was very happy to see him coming. Although the relationship between them was far from the unrealistic exaggeration described in the book, but she said she didn't want to
Meeting each other is naturally impossible.
Mo Li smiled and said he had something to talk about, so he came over. The specific thing was naturally the recent issue of families being forced to pay one million taels of disaster relief money.
Seeing that her father did not deliberately drive her away, Han Jiangxue acted like a rogue and followed several people into the study.
He served tea to several people in person, and then didn't say much. He sat quietly and listened to his father and brother and Mo Li discussing important matters together, keeping a tight composure.
After listening, Han Jiangxue got a general understanding of the specific arrangements of several families. As expected, the specific plans for how to secretly obstruct the Zheng and Wang families this time were all given by Mo Li. The method was very clever.
Yes, if you are lucky, you might be able to get more silver and raise more private soldiers.
The Han family has now recruited nearly a thousand people, dispersed in several of their villages. Not only has the resettlement problem been solved, but also the identity problem of these people has been solved, so that they will not attract attention at all.
Nowadays, there are many refugees going north. Many of them are able-bodied. For those refugees who only need a mouthful of food, the salary provided by the Han family far exceeds their expectations.
So now that the Han family is slowly developing, they are not afraid of not being able to recruit people or expand the number of private soldiers. As long as they have enough money, everything is not a big problem.
Among the three kings and four families, Mo Li is the oldest head. But now, gradually, Mo Li's words have become extremely important among the heads of the families. Especially this time about the Thousand Porridge Shack incident. And
Now in the process of the emperor forcibly levying millions of silver taels from various families, Mo Li showed his unique leadership qualities and foresight and foresight.
These are undoubtedly the most direct persuasive forces, and they will not be excluded because of their young age. Compared with the previous King Mo who died young, Mo Li has obviously inherited various advantages of King Mo, and is even more popular.
People expect.
The Three Kings and Four Families have not had such a leader for many years. Mo Li gradually gave people this kind of subconscious conviction. In the near future, he will become the core of the cohesion of several families. There is no doubt that Mo Li will
.
After several people had discussed the serious matters, Han Jiangxue spoke out about the Crown Princess's appointment with her today and the fact that Han Duan was almost plotted by the Liu family.
Of course, Mr. Liu's confession was also told to several people in detail.
"This is unreasonable. The prince is really bullying people too much!" Han Feng was immediately angry: "He openly tried to win over us, but secretly used methods to get closer to us. He also thought that we would regard him as a good person and benefactor. He really thought that we were all
Fool?"
"I have to say, the prince's move is quite powerful. If my sister hadn't found out Liu Wu, we would have only blamed the emperor for this debt." Han Jing sneered: "It's a huge loss.
I'm clear-headed and didn't fall for those people's tricks. Fortunately, my sister was on guard early, otherwise we might have to repeat the same situation we were in when we rescued Brother Qing! It seems we really underestimated the Crown Prince's ability before!"
"Xue'er, you were right not to agree to the Crown Princess. Although we have to fight against the Emperor, we can never be with a villain like the Crown Prince! Look at how he dared to scheme against the Han family before this happened. In the future,
Once he gets a big position, he won’t be a bit soft on us!”
Han Feng's attitude is also very obvious. The emperor is unreliable, and the prince is equally unreliable. The only ones who can be relied on are themselves!
Han Jiangxue nodded and said, "Yes, conspiring with the prince is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger. What's more, once discovered by the emperor, he can immediately order us to rebel. There is no need to fight for anything."
"Then what should we do? Is it possible that because the prince is plotting against us, we can only avoid the next life and bear this bad breath? Besides, this time the prince did not succeed, and he will definitely not give up easily. He is not afraid of thieves.
I'm just afraid that the thief is worried about it, and if he plots and succeeds, we'll be in big trouble!"
Han Jing knew very well in his heart that this kind of thing really couldn't be tolerated. If he didn't fight back properly, it would only make the prince more blatant.
However, he didn't have any good ideas in mind. As he spoke, his eyes moved back and forth between Han Jiangxue and Mo Li. It seemed that only these two had the most ideas.
Han Jiangxue naturally agreed with her brother's opinion. This kind of thing definitely cannot be ignored as if nothing happened. Duan'er did not have any accidents because they took good precautions. They cannot deceive themselves because they were not plotted by the prince in the end.
It no longer exists.
However, how to fight back against the prince and give him a corresponding punishment and lesson is not that simple. In addition, the matter within the ten days has not been resolved yet. It may not be easy to take action rashly.
"I don't have any good ideas at the moment." Han Jiangxue knew what her brother was thinking: "Let's postpone this matter for a few days, and finish the big things at hand first. Don't delay the big things."
Mo Li, who had been silent until now, suddenly said after hearing Han Jiangxue's words: "Actually, this matter is not difficult."
As soon as the words came out, everyone's eyes suddenly fell on Mo Li.
"Ten days later, the Zheng and Wang families were inexplicably unable to come up with so much silver. No matter how we cleaned up the traces, it was impossible not to make the emperor suspect us. As a result, we still have less money.
I have found someone who will take the blame for the Zheng and Wang families for our family."
Mo Li smiled and said: "In my opinion, the prince is the most suitable candidate!"
When Han Jing heard this, he immediately became happy. He pointed at Mo Li and nodded: "Okay, okay, this trick is indeed good enough. Why didn't I think of it before? Let the emperor and the prince fight each other. We really have something this time."
It’s a great show!”
Han Feng couldn't help but nodded. In this way, it really killed two birds with one stone. It diverted the emperor's suspicion and attention towards their family, and at the same time allowed the prince to learn a lesson. If the time is right, the conflict between the emperor and the prince might be serious.
If it breaks out, of course they can sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers. Whoever wins or loses will be completely beneficial to them and harmless.
The idea is good, but the specific arrangements and operations still need to be discussed in detail.
But the person who put forward the idea was Mo Li and not someone else, so it was not difficult to find out the specific details of the matter.
Without much effort, Mo Li explained how to do this. Everyone in the Han family looked excited and excited.
After that, Han Jing quickly went to arrange the arrangements in person, and Mo Li did not stay for long and stood up to say goodbye.
Seeing this, Han Jiangxue didn't have much to be reserved about, so she took the initiative to ask her father for permission to send Mo Li out of the house. Han Feng nodded with a smile and did not stop him.
"Wait here for a moment, I have something for you." Halfway there, Han Jiangxue stopped and pulled Han Feng to sit down in the pavilion beside her. Then, she quickly winked at Ziyue.
Ziyue understood the situation and didn't need to give any special instructions from her own lady. She walked away with a smile.
"What is so mysterious?" Mo Li reached out to hold Han Jiangxue's hand, deliberately pretending not to be able to guess.
"Guess!" Han Jiangxue smiled even louder, staring at Mo Li with sparkling eyes, showing a sense of pride.
"Is there a reward for guessing correctly?" Mo Li asked, and at the same time he remembered the kiss from a long time ago, which really made him a little distracted.
"You don't lack anything, what reward do you want?" Han Jiangxue didn't think as far as Mo Li did. She just subconsciously felt that Mo Li's expression was a little strange, so she couldn't help but ask a question.
"Who says I don't lack anything?" Mo Li smiled more meaningfully, staring directly at Han Jiangxue's lips as a silent reminder.
At this moment, Han Jiangxue realized something, and her face immediately turned slightly red.
"Forget it, I won't guess with you. Anyway, I can't hide anything from you, so stop pretending here!" Han Jiangxue rolled his eyes at Mo Li and quickly changed the subject, not wanting to make himself even more embarrassed.
Let that annoying guy think more about those messy things.
In this way, Mo Li did not further embarrass Han Jiangxue. He asked about the girl's current situation and chatted with her happily, waiting for the gift to arrive.
As long as he sat with this girl, no matter what was said or not, Mo Li felt it was the most interesting and interesting time. In the past, he seemed to have never thought that he would have such a leisurely and beautiful time.
Ziyue arrived neither early nor late, seemingly deliberately leaving some time for Mo Li and Han Jiangxue to get along, but without too much delay.
What he brought was nothing else, it was the second sachet made by Han Jiangxue for Mo Li.
Han Jiangxue once said that she would make one for Mo Li every year in the future, and now she certainly has kept her promise. Although the craftsmanship this time is still not very exquisite, it is much better than the first one.
Well, at least now I can barely see people hanging out.
Originally, she wanted to make some other things with her own hands, but on the one hand, there was always not enough time, and on the other hand, due to the limitations of her craftsmanship, she always felt like she had more than enough ambition but not enough power.
"Here you go, quickly replace the one hanging on your waist. It's so ugly!" Han Jiangxue herself found it very funny that Mo Li could wear such an ugly sachet all day long.
He doesn't care at all about how others look at him.
"It's not ugly. How could it be ugly if you made it with your own hands?" Mo Li was very happy. Although he had guessed early on that Han Jiangxue must have made a new sachet for him, he still couldn't hide his joy when he saw it with his own eyes: "
But this one is more beautiful than the first one."
As he spoke, he quickly replaced the new sachet, but he did not intend to throw away the old one, but carefully put it in his arms and put it away.
"Why are you keeping that?" Han Jiangxue saw this and said with a smile: "It's so ugly and old, just throw it away."
"Why throw it away? You did it!" Mo Li said seriously: "I will keep it properly!"
Han Jiangxue was deeply moved, and that attention made her happy more than anything else.
"Okay then, I will work hard and hope that next time besides the sachet, I can make something else for you." She was slightly apologetic, finally having some reflection on her serious lack of ability in this area.
Fortunately, now that I have an expert sister-in-law here, it will be very convenient for me to learn whatever I want to do in the future, so work hard!
Hearing Han Jiangxue's words, Mo Li was even happier, but he was overjoyed in his heart, but he still told Han Jiangxue not to worry too much. For him, having this kind of heart is already the best. As for doing more or doing less,
Doing well or doing poorly is just secondary.
Before leaving, Mo Li finally remembered that there was something he almost forgot to tell Han Jiangxue, so he turned around and said a few words to Han Jiangxue.
"Really? Didn't you say that it won't be made public for the time being?" Han Jiangxue was a little excited and excited, and at the same time a little hopeful. Anyway, she was quite happy.
"Things have changed, so this also needs to be adjusted. The coronation day will be in half a month, and it will be a good time then." Mo Li smiled and stroked Han Jiangxue's head and said, "Let me tell you in advance.
Just say it, I won’t scare you anymore.”
"No way, I'm so happy!" Han Jiangxue didn't have any awkwardness or pretentiousness at all, and admitted her feelings frankly.
Yes, she is just happy and likes it! There is nothing wrong at all, what is there not to admit?
"As long as you like it!"
Mo Li was instantly moved by Han Jiangxue's true feelings. He will have no regrets in his life when he gets this woman! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is mine.
