Chapter 280 I am willing to resist your order
Jiang Chen paused and said, "Although Prince Rui has returned to the capital, the world still hasn't forgotten what happened back then. Liuzhou is in a sensitive area. If Prince Rui were to lead people there, it might arouse suspicion from others and have a bad influence on him. Therefore, I think it is safest to let the Crown Prince handle this matter."
He smiled slightly, glanced at Jiang Hong with his fox eyes for a moment, and then turned back with a smile.
Jiang Hong tightened his cheeks and cupped his hands, saying, "Father, I will do my best to investigate this matter thoroughly. Please let me handle this matter."
Emperor Jingsheng nodded slightly but did not say anything. Instead, he looked at Jiang Yu, as if waiting for his reply.
The kindness that inadvertently revealed in that look was a warmth that Jiang Hong and Jiang Chen had never experienced before.
Jiang Yu seemed to be thinking about something. He was silent for a moment and then said, "Father, I have some official business to deal with recently. Let's leave this matter to the Crown Prince."
Emperor Jingsheng waved his hand and said, "Well, well, since you are too busy right now, let the Crown Prince handle it."
He turned his gaze back to Jiang Hong: "In this case, you should immediately prepare to set off soon. This matter is of great importance and there cannot be any omissions or mistakes."
Jiang Hong's eyelashes drooped slightly, and the color of his eyes was faintly red. His whole body felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured over it, and his body and mind were both cold.
Why is it that no matter how hard he tries, he is never seen in his father's eyes?
Why did everything he got seem like alms that Jiang Yu had picked out and then didn't want?
Jiang Hong took a deep breath, and after a while he slowly responded.
Now that the matter was settled, the three of them bowed and took their leave. After leaving the palace, Jiang Hong strode away with a sullen face, while Jiang Chen looked at his back with interest. After a while, he glanced at Jiang Yu and left with his hands behind his back, as if smiling.
"Lord."
Chen Zhao, who was waiting under the corridor, put the cloak in his hand on Jiang Yu.
A dark figure gradually walked away in the snow and said, "Chen Zhao, send someone to Liuzhou secretly to get some blood from those who died suddenly."
Chen Zhao lowered his eyes and responded, "Yes, my lord."
……
The next day, slave market.
Since Yun Shuning announced the true identity of the manager behind Liufangtang, Liufangtang's business has been better than ever before. Not only is the main store crowded with people, but even the branches are packed with people.
Yun Shuning stood in the middle of the store, trying to guide the crowd to disperse: "Everyone, please don't crowd. Safety is the top priority. The purchase of miracle drugs is limited. Everyone, line up and come one by one."
The people didn't take her words seriously at all: "Hey, Miss Yun, not all of you are here to buy the magic medicine, some are here to see a doctor and get medicine. If we don't squeeze in, we will have to wait until tomorrow. You should be patient for now, because your Liufang Hall is so popular."
Yun Shuning's temples were throbbing. She had been interrogated by her father and brother for the entire afternoon yesterday. She had almost exhausted all her brain cells in trying to cover up the fact that Jiang Yu was a sickly person. She had finally made up the story.
She had been planning to have a good rest today, but she received a message from Uncle Zhang saying that the clinic had run into some trouble and that she might need to come and take a look in person.
She was exhausted both physically and mentally at this moment.
"Miss, leave this to me. You go to the backyard and rest for a while." Lian'er saw that she was tired, squeezed through the crowd, took her hand and helped her down.
Yun Shuning did not refuse. She nodded to Lian'er and walked towards the backyard alone. Halfway through, a figure suddenly jumped out from behind her and rushed towards her without any hesitation.
Yun Shuning was already feeling a little dizzy, and was caught off guard. Not only did he stagger, he also fell forward uncontrollably.
At the critical moment.
A big hand grabbed Yun Shuning's arm and helped her up as she was about to fall.
As soon as Yun Shuning stood firm, she came to her senses. She patted her chest in fear and subconsciously looked behind her. Before she looked back, she said thank you: "Thank you for your help. If it weren't for you, I would have almost fallen..."
The voice stopped abruptly.
Yun Shuning, who had already turned around, frowned and said unkindly, "Why is it you?"
Jiang Chen smiled gracefully: "Why, can't it be this king?"
He lowered his eyes to Yun Shuning's arm which he was holding.
Yun Shuning felt goose bumps all over her body. She shook his hand away and brushed it off with a hint of disgust: "What are you doing here?"
Jiang Chen was not annoyed. He tapped his palm with the jade fan, looked around nonchalantly and said with a smile: "This is a clinic. What else can I do here besides seeing patients?"
Yun Shuning sneered: "The doctors in the entire Imperial Hospital are unable to cure your highness Prince Chen's illness. I am afraid I am helpless. Please ask your highness Prince Chen to find another famous doctor."
She could tell at a glance that the Prince was pretending to be sick, and she had no idea what he was up to.
Yun Shuning now just wanted to get away from this bad guy with bad intentions right away.
Jiang Chen seemed to not be able to hear the intention of expelling him from her tone. He stared at Yun Shuning with his narrow and long fox eyes, and said with a smile: "My illness can only be cured by Miss Yun."
"What's wrong?" Yun Shuning looked him up and down: "You look so energetic, you don't look sick."
Jiang Chen placed the jade fan against his chest and slowly uttered three words under Yun Shuning's puzzled gaze: "Lovesickness."
"I am suffering from lovesickness. Not seeing Miss Yun for one day feels like missing her for three years. I am sick with longing and cannot calm down."
He pressed forward.
Yun Shuning took a few steps back and said sternly, "Your Highness Prince Chen, please respect yourself. Yesterday, the Emperor granted me a marriage with His Highness Prince Rui..."
Jiang Chen interrupted her calmly, "So what if the marriage is granted? You can still get a divorce after the marriage is completed, not to mention that you haven't gotten married yet. If Miss Yun is willing, I don't mind disobeying the order for you and snatching you back from King Rui. The world can bear witness to my love for you."
Yun Shuning felt like she was about to vomit from the disgust.
She had always thought that Lin Rouan and Wang were the most shameless people she had ever met. But now that she had seen Jiang Chen, she finally understood that there is always someone better than you.
"Stop disgusting me." Yun Shuning thought so and said it without any concealment.
The two were behind a screen at the moment, and not many people noticed them.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid you are a forgetful person. I still remember what you did to me," Yun Shuning glared at him coldly, "That is the real evidence of heaven and earth. Your Highness, please stop doing useless and obviously impossible things and leave as soon as possible."
She said coldly: "Also, when you say you like me, are you sure you really like me? Or is it just because you want to compete with King Rui because you are unwilling to give up?"
After saying that, she turned and left, leaving Jiang Chen standing there.
He laughed suddenly, his fingertips brushed across the corners of his mouth, and the interest in his eyes became more intense: "It's really strong, but it's also really interesting. No wonder my sixth brother likes it."
"Your Highness, what should we do next?"
The secret guard behind him appeared.
