The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

Chapter 101 The Excited Emperor Yan

The expressions in everyone's eyes were filled with shock, disbelief, fear and dread.

Only then did they realize that Jiang Fan had been planning this from the very beginning. It was ridiculous that they were still laughing at Jiang Fan for not doing his job and not caring about the price of grain.

Now it seems that Jiang Fan is doing it quietly. He doesn't give them any chance to play tricks. By the time they react, it's already a foregone conclusion, and it's useless to play tricks.

Thinking of how Jiang Fan had quietly solved the bandit problem and inexplicably solved the grain price problem, a chill ran down their spines.

The three princes, in particular, could not help but shudder. Facing such an opponent with unparalleled wisdom and amazing strategies, how much chance do they have of winning the fight for the throne with Jiang Fan?

If the Chu family is tied to Jiang Fan, then Jiang Fan will definitely be aiming for the throne and they won't even stand a chance.

Coming back to their senses, the three princes looked at each other with a strange look in their eyes. They nodded unconsciously and reached a consensus in an instant.

Compared to their current intrigues, their biggest enemy right now is the Eighth Prince Jiang Fan. Only by getting rid of Jiang Fan first can they compete fairly.

The truth is that since Jiang Fan entered the eyes of Emperor Yan, he has been unstoppable. If they don't get rid of Jiang Fan, they will never have a chance to take the throne.

The eldest prince Jiang Yi looked at his grandfather who was enduring severe pain, with confusion and helplessness in his eyes.

With his limited ability, he can't deal with Jiang Fan. Now, he can only rely on his grandfather.

Ye Ren met Jiang Yi's gaze with a slightly cold look. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, Grandpa will never let Jiang Fan get his wish. Even if he defeats Chu Yan'er this time, we can't let his marriage with the Chu family succeed."

"Not to mention, we have another trump card in our hands, which is Jiang Fan's cheating on the livelihoods of the disaster victims. This alone is enough to prevent him from marrying into the Chu family."

"However, to be safe, we still have to think of another strategy. We must prevent him from being tied to the Chu family. Anyway, Chu Yan'er said there were three bets, but now there are only two, and there is still the last one. We have plenty of opportunities."

"No matter how powerful Jiang Fan is, the current situation is still unfavorable to him. If he makes a mistake, it will be our chance."

Upon hearing Ye Ren's words, the eyes of the three princes and court officials, who had just been in grief, suddenly lit up.

Yes, they have many trump cards in their hands to control Jiang Fan. If one fails, there is another. As long as they keep calculating, there is no doubt that they will not be able to bring Jiang Fan down.

At this point, Ye Ren glanced at Jiang Yi and said, "I'll go find Huang Jianzheng from the Imperial Observatory later..."

The eldest prince looked at his grandfather in confusion, not knowing what his grandfather wanted to do, but he could see that his grandfather might have other plans.

Ye Ren didn't look at Jiang Yi again. He looked up at the clear sky outside the window, his eyes getting colder and colder. The air also seemed to warm up a little bit with his look.

The climate at the end of June has begun to slowly become hotter. By the time Jiang Fan returns from Huaining Prefecture, it should be the end of July, and the weather will be even hotter by then.

On the other side, in the imperial palace, Emperor Yan was so excited that he could hardly sit still. He walked back and forth in the imperial study, holding in his hand a report sent by the recorder.

It detailed how Jiang Fan solved the grain price problem. The more he read it, the more excited he became. At this moment, he wanted to pull someone over to show off to him.

See, my Qilinzi is so powerful. He quietly solved the food price problem that was worrying others. Fortunately, he was still worried about his son before.

Now it seems that I was worrying for nothing.

He thought about it and hurried to Ci'an Palace. He thought of Concubine Su, who gave birth to Qilin Zi, and his other twin daughter Jiang Xing.

He really wanted to see his two relatives at this moment. He couldn't wait to share his joy with them.

When they arrived at Ci'an Palace, Concubine Ning was enjoying the flowers in the courtyard with Concubine Su and Jiang Xing. Concubine Ning was promoted to Concubine, while Concubine Ye was demoted to Concubine!

The three of them were talking and laughing in harmony. Seeing this, Emperor Yan showed a look of relief on his face.

Seeing Emperor Yan coming, the three women who were admiring the flowers hurriedly paid their respects. Emperor Yan waved his hand and said in a somewhat excited voice: "My two beloved concubines, Xing'er, I am here to see you. Do you know what great event Fan'er has done today?"

He got straight to the point as soon as he opened his mouth.

Upon hearing this, the three women looked at each other. Seeing Emperor Yan's excitement, they did not feel uneasy, but instead felt a surge of anticipation.

After all, if Jiang Fan had caused trouble, Emperor Yan’s expression would not be like this.

However, when talking about Jiang Fan, the three girls felt mixed emotions. Especially after hearing about what Jiang Fan had done recently, they were nervous and worried about him.

Fortunately, the final results are all good.

"Father, what big thing did my dear brother do again? Xing'er guessed that my dear brother must have done something big that made my father happy, otherwise, my father wouldn't be so happy..." Jiang Xing said crisply.

Although she was still a little afraid of Emperor Yan, he often came to accompany her and her mother recently, so she was not so afraid of him anymore.

Looking at his lovely and innocent daughter, whose face resembled Jiang Fan by 70%, Emperor Yan felt more fond of her. He stepped forward and stroked his daughter's hair, saying softly:

"Xing'er is right. Your mynah bird has made father proud again. Haha..." Having said this, he looked at Concubine Ning and Concubine Su, smiled and said:

"Aren't my two beloved concubines worried that Fan'er couldn't solve the grain price problem? Yesterday, Fan'er brought down the grain price in Huaining, and it was even reduced to half the price! Tell me, how can I not be happy?"

As soon as Emperor Yan said this, Concubine Ning, Concubine Su and Jiang Xing were stunned. They had been worried that Jiang Fan could not solve the problem of grain prices.

But they never expected that Emperor Yan would suddenly bring them such news, which made them hard to believe.

Seeing their expressions, Emperor Yan knew that they definitely didn't believe it. After all, Jiang Fan didn't seem to have done anything serious during this period of time. It was understandable that they didn't believe it.

He smiled and said, "You think Fan'er didn't do anything, but this kid secretly made preparations... I'll tell you what happened. After you hear it, you'll know how powerful Fan'er is."

At this point, Emperor Yan told the two concubines and Jiang Xing how Jiang Fan had been well prepared and had lowered the grain price step by step.

After hearing Emperor Yan's explanation, the three women stared at him blankly, not coming back to their senses for a long time.

It was not until Emperor Yan laughed heartily that they came back to their senses. Concubine Su and Jiang Xing were in tears, clasping their hands together, too excited to speak.

Concubine Ning was also a little dazed, but soon her face became gentle, with a little more love in her eyes, and a hint of indescribable emotion.

She thought of her twin sons who had not had time to grow up. She stepped forward and stroked Jiang Xing's hair, then smiled at Su Meiren, with a hint of envy in her eyes.
