Chapter 446 The Xu Family Does Not Want to Bear the Infamy

Faced with his sister's personal attack, the Prince of Xu could only smile bitterly and sigh.

He wanted to refute that he was different from the Prince of Lin... but after thinking about it carefully, it didn't seem to be much better.

"Alas..."

Xu Xuan couldn't help but sigh: "I am your brother after all, please give me some face?"

Xu Chaoge's eyes were always contemptuous, "How many times have I cleaned up the mess you did? Which time didn't I help you to settle it?"

"If my father knew about it, your legs would have been broken long ago!"

Xu Xuan showed a flattering look on his face and walked forward: "I know that Chaoge is the best to me..."

"Stop, stay away from me!"

Xu Chaoge scolded again, not allowing Xu Xuan to get close. Then he glanced at him coldly: "I have something serious to do with you!"

Hearing that it was a serious matter, Xu Xuan gradually put away the playful expression on his face: "What serious matter?"

"Lin Hengzhong was assassinated!" Xu Chaoge spoke.

"Just heard."

Xu Xuan nodded: "There was intelligence last night, I heard that he was assassinated... but it feels a bit fake!"

"What do you mean?" Xu Chaoge looked at him.

"Who is Lin Hengzhong? Can he be easily assassinated?"

Xu Xuan sighed: "Others don't know, how can we not know? If it is really that easy to assassinate a master of the first-grade master level, Lin Hengzhong would have died countless times."

"He was attacked in Linjiang City again, and it was done in the Lin family's lair. How powerful a master can do it?"

It has to be said that Xu Xuan's words are not unreasonable.

In this world, if the Xu family says that they don't know the details of the Lin family, I'm afraid no one in the world dares to say that they know!

The one who knows you best is never your friend, but your opponent!

For so many years, the Xu family has always regarded the Lin family as the biggest opponent, and the details of the Lin family are clear. Especially the Lin Prince, the Xu family has always regarded him as the biggest threat!

Over the years, the Xu family has planted many spies in Linzhou.

"The news is not false."

Xu Chaoge said: "Lin Hengzhong was indeed assassinated."

"That's a bit strange!"

Xu Xuan asked in confusion: "How many people in this world have the courage and ability to assassinate Lin Hengzhong?"

"There are only a handful, right?"

"Could it be the court that did it?"

Xu Xuan narrowed his eyes and asked suspiciously: "The new emperor ascended the throne and couldn't wait to attack the Lin family?"

Xu Chaoge said indifferently: "He's not that stupid!"

"He just ascended the throne and hasn't sat firmly on the throne yet. Attacking the Lin family at this time is tantamount to seeking death."

"Who else could it be?"

Xu Xuan thought thoughtfully: "Except for the court, who else in the world today has the ability to assassinate Lin Hengzhong?"

After all, he is the only king of a different surname in the Daning Dynasty, and his prestige is greater than that of their Xu family, a hereditary king of a different surname.

There are many people in the world who want to kill Lin Hengzhong, and there are also many people who have assassinated Lin Hengzhong in recent years.

But no one succeeded!

"Chaoge, do you think it might be..."

Xu Xuan suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but say, "Did our father do it?"

Hearing this speculation, Xu Chaoge glanced at him.

"Don't tell me, don't rule out this possibility?!"

Xu Xuan seemed to have thought of something, and explained, "Our father has always been at odds with Lin Hengzhong, and this time Lin Hengzhong was too ruthless... He sent Zheng Zhiming to Xuzhou and killed so many people, clearly not giving our father any face at all..."

"Can father swallow this breath?"

Some time ago, Zheng Zhiming broke into Xuzhou alone, made a big fuss in Xuzhou, and killed many people from their Xu family!

That was revenge!

The Xu family knew that it was Lin Hengzhong's revenge for their father's assassination of Lin Jiangnian before!

But, Lin Hengzhong was too ruthless!

Xu Xuan knew his father's violent temper, how could he swallow this breath of anger?

"If it weren't for another fierce general under Lin Hengzhong, Dongfang Guanshan, who was driven to Xuzhou, father would have planned to keep Zheng Zhiming... I guess father can't swallow this breath."

Xu Xuan analyzed it clearly: "Didn't father do something secretly behind our backs some time ago? I suspect it may be related to this matter..."

"Who knows, it was really done by father!"

Xu Chaoge originally sneered, but after listening to Xu Xuan's analysis, his eyes also condensed slightly.

Still not very convinced, but seemed to be shaken!

"Why did father do this?"

"Revenge!"

Xu Xuan slapped his thigh: "That Lin guy has bullied father, how can this revenge be tolerated? It's good to kill Lin Hengzhong, even if he can't kill him... just take it as a way to vent his anger!"

"I heard that Lin Hengzhong was also seriously injured?"

"Hey, if it's true, the Lin Palace will have a lot of fun now..."

Xu Xuan didn't know what he was thinking, and his face showed a bit of gloating.

Xu Chaoge seemed to be thinking about something, and he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it for a while.

"By the way, sister!"

At this time, Xu Xuan seemed to have thought of something, and touched his chin and said: "Lin Hengzhong was assassinated. If nothing unexpected happens, Lin Jiangnian should go back quickly, right?"

Xu Chaoge raised his eyes slightly and looked at him: "What?"

"Aren't you going to take revenge?"

Xu Xuan remembered something again: "That guy didn't tease you last time? Why don't you take revenge?"

Xu Xuan remembered that on New Year's Eve, Lin Jiangnian spoke rudely to Xu Chaoge. With his sister's personality, how could she not bear grudges?

"That kid is definitely going back to Linzhou. If he really goes back, I don't know when you will have to wait for revenge next time, sister?"

Xu Chaoge's expression was cold, and a strange color seemed to flash in his eyes. Then he said lightly: "Business is more important."

When it comes to business, Xu Xuan's smile faded slightly: "How is it going?"

Xu Chaoge glanced at him coldly: "Don't forget that your father asked you to do this."

"Don't you have me, sister? I'm relieved!"

While flattering his sister, Xu Xuan sighed secretly: "No one expected that the third prince would be so vulnerable..."

He sighed with regret, shook his head and said: "It's a bit of a waste of mud!"

I thought this drama of competing for the throne would be very exciting, but I didn't expect it to end so anticlimactic in the end, which made Xu Xuan, who was watching the drama, a little disappointed.

"This is more beneficial to us."

Xu Chaoge said lightly.

"That's right."

Xu Xuan thought about it and it made sense. If the third prince was a talent, it would not be a good thing.

"It's a pity that I didn't see through Li Ci Ning's details this time..."

Xu Xuan felt a little regretful.

This drama of fighting for the throne was too simple, so Xu Xuan couldn't judge how capable the prince was.

To be precise, he is now His Majesty!

Xu Xuan couldn't help but sigh that it was indeed the right thing to come to the capital this time. Although it was a bit regretful, he did witness a lot of wonderful dramas.

The drama of fighting for the throne between the prince and the third prince had just ended, and on the other side, news of treason came from the palace!

Chen Zhao, the old eunuch beside Emperor Ning, suddenly assassinated His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but failed and died.

Then, the news of Emperor Ning's death came!

And this was also one of the purposes of Xu Xuan and Xu Chaoge's visit to the capital this time.

Emperor Ning had been in seclusion for more than half a year, and various forces in the world speculated and wanted to know what was going on with this emperor. Xu Xuan and Xu Chaoge took this opportunity to enter the capital to find out the truth.

Now that it is confirmed that the emperor has passed away, it can be regarded as completely relieved.

Xu Chaoge said: "Emperor Ning is dead, we should go back and make preparations."

"It's almost time to go back!"

Xu Xuan nodded and sighed: "Those people have been keeping a close eye on us during this period. This prince even went to the brothel... cough..."

Xu Xuan coughed lightly: "With the death of Emperor Ning, the biggest threat to our Xu family is gone. As for the new emperor... he is still very young!"

The new emperor has not made any achievements since he ascended the throne, and it is difficult for him to control the situation in the world in a short period of time.

For them, this is undoubtedly the best result.

"Next, our Xu family will only have one last opponent..."

At this point, the smile on Xu Xuan's face disappeared, and his cold eyes seemed to be shining with something faintly.

From the beginning to the end, their Xu family only had one opponent!

"It would be great if Lin Hengzhong was assassinated this time..."

Xu Xuan couldn't help but fantasize: "In this way, our Xu family will have the final say in this world..."

"Stop dreaming!"

Xu Chaoge interrupted him: "Even if Lin Hengzhong is dead, the Lin Wang Army is still there, and the trusted generals under Lin Hengzhong should not be underestimated!"

Xu Xuan looked disdainful: "What kind of storm can a bunch of rabble stir up? Once Lin Hengzhong dies, they will all be in chaos. As for the Lin Wang Prince..."

Xu Xuan's mind appeared the young man who was about the same age as him and even more handsome than him. He curled his lips: "You don't really think that Lin Jiangnian can control Lin Hengzhong's generals?"

"Does he have that ability?... He doesn't!"

Xu Chaoge had no expression on his face.

"Are you jealous of him?"

"How is it possible?!"

Xu Xuan denied it flatly.

Xu Chaoge mercilessly exposed: "You are just jealous that he is Li Piaomiao's fiancé!"

"Absolutely not!"

Xu Xuan glared and refused to admit it.

Then he sneered: "Besides, whether they can succeed is still a question. Emperor Ning has passed away, and Li Ci Ning is very fond of his sister. How could he be willing to marry her to Lin Jiangnian?!"

"This marriage is probably going to fail!"

Xu Xuan's eyes were bright, and his mood was inexplicably better.

What marriage?

It's all fake!

It's a political marriage in itself. Now that Emperor Ning has passed away, how could Li Ci Ning be willing to marry his sister to Linzhou?

Thinking of this, Xu Xuan smiled.

Looking at his behavior, Xu Chaoge didn't want to say anything more, and said expressionlessly: "Don't forget the business, that thing can't go wrong... Otherwise, my father won't forgive you!"

Xu Xuan waved his hand: "Chaoge, don't worry, I know it in my heart, it won't go wrong."

He had a plan in his mind and was confident.

"It's better this way!"

Xu Chaoge glanced at him coldly, and then said: "Father doesn't want to be cursed by the world, and our Xu family can't bear the curse... Whether you can inherit father's position in the future depends on you."

After that, Xu Chaoge turned around and reminded him one last time: "Get it done as soon as possible, so as to avoid more trouble at night!"

Then he ignored Xu Xuan who was smug in the attic and left without looking back.

Xu Xuan was left standing there, and he curled his lips until his sister's figure disappeared: "Don't want to be cursed? Don't want to bear the curse?"

"Father has a beautiful idea!"

"The people in the world are not fools...Father can deceive himself, but can he deceive all the people in the world?"

"No matter what, our Xu family will definitely bear this reputation!"

"...You can't escape!"

"..."

The sudden news caused a big change in the atmosphere in the Jiang family.

After the guests came to the Jiang family in Jiangnan, Jiang Ningkang went to the palace to see His Majesty to approve the leave, while Jiang's mother started busy packing her luggage.

It is not far from the capital to Chuzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, but it is not close either. There is also a section of waterway. The trip back will be tiring and tiring, so we naturally need to make more preparations.

However, the news came too suddenly, and there was not much time to prepare. After Jiang Ningkang came to the capital from Jiangnan with his wife and children, he rarely went back to visit.

But this time, while Mr. Jiang was seriously ill, Jiang Ningkang planned to rush back with his wife and children, and go home to visit relatives.

And Jiang Shaoan, the eldest young master, was somewhat reluctant to leave when he learned that he would be leaving the capital for a while.

Ever since he came to limelight in Cuixianju a few days ago, Jiang Shaoan has been in full glory these days. Lin Jiangnian became famous after his first battle in Cuixianju. After the news spread, it caused quite a stir among the dandy circles in Beijing.

After all, that day, the scene of the Eighth Prince plopped down on his knees in front of Lin Jiangnian, begging for mercy and calling him brother-in-law was so shocking that many people had a new understanding of this Prince Lin!

In addition, Lin Jiangnian's ability to take action that day was also terrifying. After the news spread, it became more and more outrageous.

Lin Jiangnian killed all the guards around the Eighth Prince with just a flick of his finger!

How could Prince Lin, with just one look, force the eighth prince to kneel down and beg for mercy, crying and begging for mercy!

At the end of the story, it was even said that Lin Jiangnian had been hiding for many years, but he was actually a master who had been hiding for many years...

The news spread outrageously, and what followed was curious speculation from various forces about this Prince Lin.

As the cousin of Prince Lin, Jiang Shaoan's status naturally rose with the tide.

Those children from the dandy family who used to look down on Jiang Shaoan came forward one after another to show their kindness, to curry favor, or to inquire... They all wanted to find out the news about Prince Lin from Jiang Shaoan.

In this way, being surrounded by so many people for the first time in his life greatly satisfied Young Master Jiang's vanity. He was addicted to it and could not extricate himself.

When I learned that I was leaving the capital, I was somewhat reluctant!

…

Night falls.

After Lin Jiangnian left Jiang Ningkang, he went to the courtyard next door and knocked on the door.

Then, he opened the door and walked into the room.

In the cold and quiet room, candles were lit.

Zhiyuan, who was wearing a green shirt and white skirt, was squatting on the ground, packing her things.

Lin Jiangnian approached slowly and squatted down next to her: "Where are you packing?"

"Yeah." Zhiyuan nodded softly.

"Let me help you."

As Lin Jiangnian said this, he reached out to help pack the things, but soon he touched something made of gauze from the luggage.

He looked down and saw what he was touching.

Before he could speak, he saw the paper kite next to him quickly snatched from his hand, stuffed it into his luggage, and then tied it up.

"I'm done cleaning it up!"

Zhiyuan's tone seemed a little unnatural and she stood up slowly.

Lin Jiang young laughed and looked quietly at the soft and rosy face of the girl in front of him.

He stood up slowly, walked closer, hugged Zhiyuan from behind, rested his head on her neck, and took a deep breath.

“It smells so good!”

Zhiyuan's face turned slightly red, she twisted her body unnaturally, and glanced back at him.

"No, no dirty words!"

"Where is the dirty talk in this?"

Lin Jiangnian held her little hand and chuckled, "These are obviously love words."

Zhiyuan's face turned red, she looked away and ignored him.

She knew that the more she dealt with this guy, the more he would take advantage of her.

While feeling the girl's soft and delicate body, Lin Jiangnian quietly stared at Zhiyuan's face and called softly: "Zhiyuan."

The kite was indifferent.

"I have something to tell you."

Lin Jiangnian stared at Zhiyuan's eyes quietly, paused, and then suddenly spoke.

"This time, why don't you go back to Jiangnan with your aunt and the others?"
