Chapter 450 Take action if you disagree
"Your Highness has misunderstood. I am not even a juren. The only source of information about the court's movements is the imperial reports. It was only when the two princes mentioned it on those two occasions that I came up with a solution. This kind of thing is hard to come by, and I am powerless to do anything about it."
Jiang Youzhen shook his head and sighed, with a look of regret on his face.
Unexpectedly, just as she finished speaking, someone grabbed her collar and lifted her up. With her feet suspended in the air, Jiang Youzhen was startled and was about to fight back when she saw a magnified face approaching her.
"I think you are not willing to accept my toast, and you think I am a fool and want to fool me."
The other person's breath was exhaled on Jiang Youzhen's face, and Jiang Youzhen had nowhere to hide.
This damn violent man, if she had the ability to rebel, what would happen if she killed him now?
They have no moral principles and start fighting as soon as they disagree with each other.
Seeing Jiang Youzhen's cheeks flushed red, perhaps from shame or difficulty breathing, he suddenly felt that this boy's smooth and delicate skin was quite like that of a girl.
Especially after her face turned red, her eyes were still watery, which made her look quite adorable.
These sparkling eyes are very beautiful.
Seeing the Third Prince staring at him, Jiang Youzhen felt uneasy. What if he discovered his secret when he was so close?
"No wonder my aunt likes you. You look good. But you are as timid as a mouse. Even so, you can be scared to tears. You are not like a man."
Jiang Youzhen wanted to roll her eyes. What could she do? She had a tear incontinence physique. She really didn't want to cry! She just couldn't help it!
A man with delicate skin and a pretty face.
"Hmph!" The third prince loosened his hand and was about to pat Jiang Youzhen's chest to warn her.
Jiang Youzhen immediately shrank back, so fast that the Third Prince's hand missed.
She breathed a sigh of relief. If she had really patted her chest, she would have been really finished.
"Please forgive me, Your Highness! It's my incompetence as a student." Jiang Youzhen couldn't help but grit his teeth.
You bastard, when she finds an opportunity, she will make the Third Prince pay for his shame today.
The Third Prince's face darkened, "Why? You still don't seem convinced!"
"I dare not!" Jiang Youzhen shook his head repeatedly.
The prefect Li Anshun standing by was too scared to say a word. He had experienced the temper of the Third Prince before. He knew exactly what happened to the skinny horse from Jiangnan that was presented to him that day.
Compared to the second prince's sharp tongue, the third prince is serious.
Li Anshun swallowed his saliva. He didn't dare to say anything at this moment.
The Third Prince glanced at Jiang Youzhen and said, "There is no rush to offer advice, but there is something I need you to do right now."
"Please give me your instructions, Your Highness."
"What do you think of the Ziyun Tower?" He looked around with a nonchalant tone.
Jiang Youzhen was shocked. Could it be that he was interested in her Ziyun Tower?
"It's just an inn, but it's a bit novel." Jiang Youzhen pretended to be puzzled.
"The owner of Ziyun Tower is Madam Liu from the Chen family. This woman is very tough and only calls people by their father's surname. She is very arrogant. Although she has some abilities, she is a little ungrateful."
The Third Prince slammed the table and said, "I am somewhat interested in this Purple Cloud Tower. I will leave this matter to you. Although you are as timid as a mouse, you are eloquent. Go and persuade her to work for me. I will definitely not treat her unfairly and give her 20% profit."
Ah? Jiang Youzhen was shocked by the other party's shamelessness. He wanted to rob and force the other party to do things for him, and only gave him 20% profit? This was even more cruel than the second and fourth princes!
"What? You can't even handle such a small matter?" The third prince frowned when he saw the flash of disbelief in Jiang Youzhen's eyes. This kid is indeed not very obedient.
Jiang Youzhen immediately put on an awkward expression, "Your Highness, you also know that I am not even a juren now. Even if I go to plead for her, Madam Liu will not pay attention! If I bring up your name, it will inevitably be suspected of bullying others. If it gets out, it will damage your reputation!"
"Ahem!" Li Anshun at the side couldn't help but cough twice. "In fact, if it weren't for His Highness's inconvenience to come forward, you wouldn't have to speak up for this matter. Now is your chance to show off, why don't you do it?"
As long as he was not allowed to speak, what did he care? Li Anshun had to be careful in front of this little ancestor, otherwise, if he was unhappy, he would be demoted and transferred to a remote corner. What should he do?
Jiang Youzhen glanced at him. This guy was not a good guy either. He was the father and mother official of Tongzhou Prefecture, right? Someone was robbing and plundering on his territory, but he allowed it to happen and even helped the tyrant to commit atrocities. He was unworthy of being the father and mother official.
"It's not that I don't want to. I would love to serve Your Highness. But I do know something. The real owner behind Ziyun Tower is not Madam Liu, but someone else."
Jiang Youzhen: I'm sorry, I'm pulling you out first to raise a big banner. Anyway, you are competitors, so it doesn't matter if you have some hatred.
"Oh? Who is it?" The third prince sneered.
"Before, the Second and Fourth Princes were supervising the construction. This? Although we cannot take hearsay seriously, there has been no problems since the opening of Ziyun Tower, which is evident."
The Third Prince immediately sneered, "So it must be the Second Prince. He has made a lot of money from the tea tickets, and he actually wants to interfere in the business here? Father has strictly prohibited court officials and princes from participating in the business of the people. The princes' houses all have other ways to make a living."
It seems that the Third Prince and the Second Prince have a deep grudge! Jiang Youzhen could only say sorry to the Second Prince, because too many lice won't itch anyway.
The Third Prince thought that he was not afraid of the Second Prince, after all, he did not even have a capable outsider. However, he still had some leverage over the Second Prince, so he should not act rashly before finding leverage over the Second Prince.
Especially recently, the ministers in the court have been arguing and asking his father to re-confer the title of Crown Prince. At this critical juncture, he should keep a low profile.
"I am afraid of the Second Prince? Humph! But the government has been taking a different direction recently, so let's put this matter aside for now."
In order to avoid being reported by the second brother to the emperor, how unprofitable would that be?
Jiang Youzhen stood aside, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible. However, the next moment, the third prince walked up to Jiang Youzhen.
"The results will be announced in three days. You can stay in Ziyun Tower for the next two days and come whenever you are called."
Why? Jiang Youzhen was angry.
"Your Highness, when I came out, I said I would only stay one night and then go back. If I come back late and make my parents worry, it would be unfilial."
"Send someone back to tell him something."
The Third Prince looked at Jiang Youzhen and said, "If you don't want to, then go serve Princess Changsui!"
It's either stealing people or stealing livelihoods. Jiang Youzhen is really angry.
"Go away!" The third prince waved his hand. He now disliked Jiang Youzhen.
Jiang Youzhen walked out of the study with a livid face.
The third prince seems to be quite idle, we should find him something to do.
As soon as Jiang Youzhen returned to the room, he wrote a letter and handed it to Qinglang.
"You asked someone to give the secret letter to Ah San."
