Chapter 528 Recruitment
The whole yard was filled with betrothal gift boxes.
The gate was open, and the people watching at the door looked at the dazzling array of treasures and marveled at Song Ruize's generosity.
"Isn't it said that this Lord Song is from a commoner family? How come he is more generous than those aristocratic families?"
"You know the snack shop, right? It's his. I heard there are hundreds of branches all over the country. Do you think he has the money?"
"I heard that the two grew up together and were engaged since they were young. The snack shop is a joint business between the two."
"This Miss Qin is a God of Wealth, known as the Little God of Wealth. She has tens of thousands of employees, all of whom rely on her for their livelihood! Now that she's married to such a perfect husband, isn't she richer than the national treasury?"
Qin Huiyin dressed up carefully and went out. Looking at so many betrothal gifts, she walked towards the handsome and imposing man opposite her.
She stopped beside him, tugged at his sleeve, and said in a low voice, "This is too high-profile."
"It's a once-in-a-lifetime event, so we can't keep it low-key." Song Ruize held her hand and said, "The more public it is, the more people will talk about it. Even if the Princess and the Jiang family want to cause trouble, they'll have to think twice."
Li Taohua echoed from the side: "That's right. We can talk about the future later. Right now, your marriage is a big deal, and you can't let Yinyin down."
"Should we get engaged first and wait for Big Brother and Sister Luwu to come back before getting married?" Qin Huiyin said.
"Don't delay any longer, just do it. Your eldest brother won't blame you if he knows what happened in the capital."
After the betrothal gifts were delivered, the next step was to discuss the specific details of the marriage. Li Taohua asked Song Ruize to bring the official matchmaker in to discuss the wedding date and procedures.
Bang! Bang! Jiang Yunzhou threw the pillow on the bed, his eyes fierce: "Quacks, all quacks, how could I be disabled?"
Jiang Zhiyu looked at Jiang Yunzhou with annoyance in his eyes: "If you don't want to die, then stop. If the bleeding can't be stopped, I'll have to chop off your legs. Do you want to become a waste directly?"
"I want Song Ruize to die. I want him to die."
"He's now in the service of the Crown Prince. Even the Princess can't handle him. How easy is it to kill him? Quickly heal your wounds and go see your mother in person. She carried you for ten months, so she can't possibly just ignore you, right?"
"To you, I'm just a tool to contain her, right? But if she cared about my life or death, she wouldn't have let me become like this. Song Ruize tortured me and my legs are broken. How can such a loser become the crown prince and inherit the title of earl?"
Jiang Yunzhou looked at Jiang Zhiyu with suspicion: "You don't want that sickly boy to be the crown prince, do you?"
Jiang Zhiyu's eyes flashed.
This son was already a useless chess piece, so of course he had to change the crown prince. However, for now, he had to appease him and use him for his own purposes.
"You are the prince whom I carefully raised. Dad loves your mother deeply. The position of prince can only be yours. It cannot be given to anyone else."
Jiang Yunzhou's expression softened. "Those quack doctors said that even if my leg is cured, it won't be able to recover to its original state. I'll just have to be a cripple."
"That's an ordinary quack. Dad will ask Dr. Wei to see you." Jiang Zhiyu said, "What you need to do now is to take good care of your injuries and wait for Dad to bring your mother back. Then our family of three will be reunited."
"She now has a new man and a daughter whom she treasures." Jiang Yunzhou sneered.
"I've thought about it carefully. That Qin Huiyin can't be your mother's daughter. We were deceived by your mother." Jiang Zhiyu said, "Your mother lost too much blood after giving birth to you. The doctor said it would be difficult for her to have children again. In addition, your mother was seriously injured when she left the Earl's Mansion. It took her a year and a half to recuperate. She had no time to get pregnant and give birth to a daughter. That Qin Huiyin is not your sister."
"Really?" Jiang Yunzhou thought about Qin Huiyin's pretty face. "She didn't want me to touch her precious daughter, so she lied to me on purpose."
"She loves her daughter so much. If you can bring her into the mansion, you can do whatever you want with her," Jiang Zhiyu said seductively.
It doesn’t matter whether she is his biological daughter or not. She is not his daughter anyway. As long as she is not his daughter, he will not be the one who suffers from the sibling conflict.
——Qingyi, since you are so disobedient, I will destroy what you care about most. If you dare to betray me, you must bear the consequences of betrayal.
Jiang Zhiyu's eyes were full of malice.
After Jiang Yunzhou heard what Jiang Zhiyu said, all he could think of was Qin Huiyin's graceful figure.
He now deeply regretted his hesitation. If he had not hesitated, the woman would have been his.
"Song Ruize came to propose marriage today," Jiang Zhiyu added fuel to the fire. "I doubt their wedding date will be too late. You need to recover quickly, or else the beauty you've got will be someone else's. If you snatch Song Ruize's woman, you'll win over him and make him suffer for the rest of his life."
"Give me the medicine, I want to drink it. Also, invite Doctor Wei into the house immediately, I want to treat my injuries." Jiang Yunzhou grabbed the quilt tightly and swore secretly.
Qin and Song's engagement was a grand affair, and people in the capital were discussing it.
In the East City box, the prince and several officials listened to the conversation of the common people outside.
"Your Highness, Song Ruize has come to your side at this time, clearly intending to use you to deal with the Princess. Your Highness, please do not be deceived by him."
The Crown Prince tapped the table lightly. "I know that, too. However, this Song Ruize is indeed useful. First, he's brave and resourceful, a good weapon. Second, he's very wealthy, and now his fiancée is even richer, which is like having an extra purse. Third, he has a weak spot. The eldest princess wants to marry her daughter to him. Any other man would have expressed gratitude, but he turned down the offer for a woman. Such a man values loyalty and has a weak spot, making him easy to control."
"Your Highness is absolutely right. Apart from anything else, the list of people he controls about the eldest princess is very useful. We have eliminated many of the eldest princess's hidden contacts."
"King Wei, why don't you speak?" asked the prince.
The King of Wei chuckled and said, "Your Majesty is unparalleled in wisdom and strategy. I'm just lazy and don't want to have a say. I just remembered that your Majesty originally wanted to win over Tang Yichen, but Tang Yichen was stubborn and refused to express his opinion. Now that Song Ruize is on your ship, and Tang Yichen is related to him by marriage, doesn't that mean Tang Yichen is also tied to our ship? Your Majesty, this deal is very cost-effective."
"My brother, the Emperor, is very dear to me." The Crown Prince said, waving to the other ministers. "All of you, please withdraw! The Princess will definitely make some moves soon. Keep a close eye on her and don't let her find an opportunity to strike back. Prince Wei, please stay and have a few drinks with me."
