705 Assassination in the Night
However, advisor Ji did not agree with this point. “brother Ma, isn’t this His Highness bullying people? What if this matter is known by the Emperor…”
Although he didn’t finish the last sentence, everyone knew the consequences if the Emperor found out.
Advisor Ma said nonchalantly, “Brother Ji, I’m afraid you’re overthinking it! Why did His Highness want a thousand-year-old ginseng? It was all for the emperor. When His Majesty finds out that the third Prince has put in so much effort for him and is so filial, do you think His Majesty will still blame His Highness?”
Everyone seemed to be thinking about the possibility that advisor Ma had mentioned.
Advisor Jiang did not say a word, which meant that he was neutral.
However, advisor Ji still had some reservations.
That was because if he had gone to Lin Deshan and asked for the thousand-year-old ginseng before the guang juyuan auction house had spread the news, it would not have been bullying, and the third prince’s reputation would not have been affected.
But now, it was obvious that he wanted to force a deal.
Yuwen Feiye was a hot-headed person who would do anything to achieve his goals.
In his eyes, there were only things that were beneficial to him and things that were not.
After a moment, he made a decision and said, ” we’ll do as Advisor Ma says!”
Advisor Ma lowered his head slightly, his expression filled with joy and excitement.
Advisor Jiang did not show any expression.
Advisor Ji felt helpless.
“Yes, Your Highness!”
Once Yuwen feiye had made his decision, no one would be able to change it.
…
When Guo Bing received a letter from the general’s new Butler and read the contents of the letter, Guo Bing’s face darkened.
After that, he rolled his eyes and looked up at the sky. “big brother, you’re too disloyal. How can you go and save the beauty by yourself, leaving me to face a group of Tigers and wolves? ”
However, after a while, he laughed and muttered to himself, ” hehe, big brother, I knew you wouldn’t be able to sit still. You say you’re not worried about miss Lin, but we know your heart. You couldn’t wait to go there.”
The new Butler, uncle Jiang, looked at Guo Bing curiously for a while, then he asked curiously, ” young master Guo, who is this miss Lin you’re talking about? Why would you say that my general would be worried about her?”
His general had never been close to any girl before, so why would he suddenly be worried about a girl?
Guo Bing looked around, then said to uncle Jiang mysteriously, ” uncle Jiang, I’ll tell you a secret. You must keep it to yourself.”
Uncle Jiang immediately looked flattered and replied in surprise, ” yes, yes. Young master Guo, please speak!”
Then, Guo Bing said, ” uncle Jiang, it won’t be long before your General’s Office has a new mistress!”
“What?” Uncle Jiang seemed to be frightened and immediately took a few steps back in surprise. He said in disbelief, ” young master Guo, is what you said true? ”
If this news were true, it would be great news.
Guo Bing immediately wrapped his arms around uncle Jiang’s neck and said, “Uncle Jiang, how can you doubt this young master? You should know that your old master and I are brothers who have gone through life and death together. How can this young master joke about the general’s marriage? Don’t you think so, uncle Jiang? ”
Uncle Jiang immediately reacted. He was so happy and excited that he didn’t know what to do. He said helplessly, ” that’s good, that’s good. The heavens are really open to us. They can’t bear to see a good person like the great general being alone for his entire life, so they bestowed him with a companion.”
Then, he asked anxiously, ” young master Guo, what kind of person is that girl? When can she marry the great general?”
In his mind, since the great general had taken a fancy to that girl, their marriage had become an ironclad fact.
That was why he wanted to know more about the future mistress of the house so that he could arrange an atmosphere for her to adapt to as soon as possible.
However, what Guo Bing said next gave him a heavy blow.
He said, “Uncle Jiang, don’t be so impatient. This is because miss Lin is only 12 and a half years old, and there are still two and a half years before she reaches marriageable age!”
“What?” Uncle Jiang was stunned for a moment. Then he realized a shocking problem. ‘His general was twenty-four or twenty-five years old, a whole round older than her.’
Then, he shook his head. ‘no, this is no different from the third Prince’s Special Hobby. We must stop his great General’s view of life from going astray!’
Guo Bing seemed to have read uncle Jiang’s mind and advised, ” uncle Jiang, don’t worry about it. After you meet miss Lin, you’ll realize that other than miss Lin, there’s no other girl who can match up to your family’s great general! Oh, no, I’m wrong. No man is worthy of that miss Lin, and your family’s great general is just barely worthy of her. ”
Uncle Jiang was shocked and surprised.
He was shocked because this girl was really young.
Upon hearing Guo Bing’s words, uncle Jiang muttered in his heart, “Who on earth is this miss Lin? How could she make the young master of the Guo family praise and respect her so much? and how could she make their general, who has a heart of stone, so concerned and worried about her? ”
Uncle Jiang asked curiously, ” young master Guo, when do you think miss Lin will enter the general’s residence? ”
Guo Bing said, ” in half a year!”
“half a year later?!” Uncle Jiang was shocked!
