The Dramatic Crown Princess Wants to Poison Me!

Chapter 799: Chapter 745: As Wished (Part 2)

If you want to make progress, you must endure hardships. Isn’t wine fragrant? Aren’t beauties beautiful? Why be troubled?

After returning to his study, Huangfu Yuxuan began planning.

There are only eight days left until Grandfather’s birthday.

The messages coming from Grand Tutor Zhao’s side aren’t definitively useful.

There’s no helping it; the imperial mind is hard to gauge. If the Emperor’s thoughts could be easily deciphered, why would there be so many problems?

He’s merely having someone keep an eye on Prince Lu and Prince Xin. Of course, Prince Li’s side shouldn’t be ignored either. Fortunately, there has always been someone watching that side, so even if there’s a disturbance, there’s no fear of being caught off guard.

He feels he should hire an advisor to handle some of the minor matters for him.

In the future, he will need to spend more time analyzing court dynamics, and devote more time to strive for his grand ambitions. He needs to know who can be of use to him and who is a hindrance. Before, he had an idea, but now it’s not just about knowing; he needs to take action!

He picked up a pen and wrote down name after name on the white paper, dividing areas one by one. Before long, the white paper was filled to the brim.

However, he was not satisfied!

These manpower, not enough!

These forces, not enough!

He spent so many years cultivating these contacts, which originally seemed quite substantial. But thinking about his grand ambitions, he felt this manpower was merely a drop in the ocean!

He put down the pen, picked up the paper, and looked at it carefully, as if trying to squeeze out a few more people from it.

Nothing forgotten, nothing unrecorded.

Huangfu Yuxuan quickly transcribed two-thirds of the newly written paper. Then he sealed it, paused for a moment, and called out, ”Someone come!”

In the originally solitary study, a shadow in a black outfit appeared from the corner. The person clasped their fists, saluting, ”Master!”

Huangfu Yuxuan folded the paper, sealed it in an envelope, and handed it over, saying, ”Deliver this to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, directly to the Marquis!”

The person replied, ”Yes!” took the letter, and immediately left.

Huangfu Yuxuan made another copy, still two-thirds, but folded it and kept it close. Then, he tore the paper on the table, lit it, and burned it to ashes.

This copy on his person is meant for Grand Tutor Zhao.

He wants Grand Tutor Zhao to know he’s not without resources, not fighting an unprepared battle! Grand Tutor Zhao wants his daughter to gain the highest and most honorable position among women in the world, then from now on, let them work together wholeheartedly!

He glanced down at his clothes. He had become the Princely Heir, so perhaps the Prince Liang Mansion could see some excitement.

As Huangfu Yuxuan exhaustively schemed and plotted, Xia Wenjin was in the backyard of Absolute Taste Cuisine.

Upon receiving the message from Mu Ziyu, Xia Wenjin was momentarily surprised, but soon smiled. Wasn’t this the moment she’d been hoping for?

Many people she thought she’d never get a chance to see again, many debts she thought she’d never have a chance to repay. Now that there’s an opportunity, it’s heaven’s favor!

The backyard was a familiar place to Xia Wenjin; she’d come here more often than she’d gone home.

But now, stepping into it again felt like returning anew to the world! ℴ

Though called a backyard, it was actually another residence.

As soon as Xia Wenjin entered, she saw a man in blue, about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, standing by the wall. He was lean but exuded a spirited aura, as if his lanky body was filled with strength.

His eyes were fixed on Xia Wenjin, not with friendly intent.

Xia Wenjin slightly bowed in salute. This man didn’t recognize her, but she recognized him—this was Senior Brother Li Haofan!

No, in this lifetime, he’s not her senior brother. Now, they’re merely meeting for the first time.

Mu Ziyu came out from the courtyard, saw Xia Wenjin, quickened her pace, and stood before Xia Wenjin, saying, ”You came quite quickly!”

Seeing the scrutiny in her eyes, Xia Wenjin sighed inwardly. Fourth Sister had always been straightforward, often saying, ”Trust those you use; don’t use those you distrust,” but for the sake of their master, she’d probably had several doubts about Xia Wenjin.

With a smile, Xia Wenjin replied to Mu Ziyu, ”Since it’s promised, how could I deliberately delay?”

Mu Ziyu took the lead, saying, ”Today, it’s not my master who wants to see you; it’s my few senior brothers!”

Xia Wenjin paused slightly before casually saying, ”Do your senior brothers also have places where they need my services?”

Mu Ziyu laughed. She was a bright and lovely woman, and when she laughed, it was like the early spring blooms, radiant and fresh, ”You can find out. Rest assured, they aren’t ones who won’t pay for medical consultations!”
