Marrying into a rich family by mistake, it is difficult to be a mistress

Chapter 448 The world is bustling, everyone is here for profit

The more Rong Qingqing thought about it, the faster her heart beat.

Should she write a reply letter to the Third Prince?

But, if I were to reply, what would I say?

Now that I have made everything I wanted to entrust to you clearly stated and have received a response, I naturally should not contact you again.

Forget it, I won’t write the letter.

When the Third Prince and his cousin the Crown Prince come back, if she has the chance, she will thank the Third Prince in person.

……

The third prince came to see Xiao Yanan again.

Ji Chuhe was helping Xiao Yanan take medicine.

As soon as he heard the news, he immediately put down the medicine bowl and stood up to greet the third prince.

"Greetings, Prince."

"No need to be so polite. How is Yan An?" the third prince asked with a worried look on his face.

"I'm taking medicine, and I'm feeling better." After Ji Chuhe finished speaking, his eyes turned red, as if the emotions he had been suppressing for a long time could no longer be controlled and he lost his composure.

She quickly picked up her handkerchief and wiped away the tears that had fallen. "Third Prince, please come in."

"Don't worry too much, Yan An will be fine." The third prince comforted.

"Yeah." Ji Chuhe was choked with sobs and couldn't speak.

The third prince walked in, and Ji Chuhe followed him silently.

Xiao Yan'an on the bed opened his eyes with difficulty, "Third Prince!" He stretched out his hand, like a drowning man desperately grabbing a piece of driftwood.

The third prince immediately shook his hand.

Looking at Ji Chuhe trying hard to hold back her tears, the whole room was filled with a faint layer of sadness and the atmosphere made people feel very depressed.

Although the Third Prince had not yet found out who secretly poisoned Xiao Yan'an, he believed that he was poisoned.

"Third Prince, I beg you for a favor. You must agree to it!" Xiao Yan'an tightly grasped the Third Prince's hand, and seemed to be so excited that he wanted to sit up from the bed.

"Don't be anxious, take your time. I will promise you anything I can do!" The third prince responded sincerely.

"My physical condition... cough cough... I don't know how long it will take for me to get better. Your Highness, please help me... send my wife back to the imperial capital first. It's still too dangerous here. I can't let her get into any trouble."

"No! Prince, I will never separate from you!" Ji Chuhe responded immediately.

What a loving couple, they never leave each other.

"Madam, listen to me. Go back to the capital and wait for me. I will definitely return safely."

Ji Chuhe suddenly knelt down, "Third Prince!"

The third prince was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean? Get up quickly."

"Third Prince, I have a favor to ask of you!" Ji Chuhe seemed to have made a great decision. "Some time ago, someone pretended to be a doctor to assassinate the prince! Those doctors were recruited by the county governors of each city! I suspect that it was those county governors who wanted to get rid of the prince. Among them, someone must have been involved in the corruption of disaster relief grain, so they were eager to get rid of the prince to vent their anger!"

"Your Highness, plotting to murder the Crown Prince is a serious crime! They should be executed on the spot! Your Highness, please give the order to arrest those county magistrates and execute them without mercy!"

These words were squeezed out from between Ji Chuhe's teeth.

Her body was shaking with emotion.

She's like a madman who has lost her mind because she feels sorry for her husband.

"I'm still investigating those county governors, and there's not enough evidence to prove that they were involved in the corruption case. And although they recruited those doctors, it doesn't mean they ordered them to murder the prince. There's not enough evidence. I know you feel sorry for the prince, but you can't act on impulse!"

"If it's not them, who else could it be!" Ji Chuhe retorted.

"Madam, I promise, I will not only investigate the corruption case, but also who is trying to assassinate the prince. You get up first."

"Madam, please don't embarrass the Third Prince. Please get up quickly." Xiao Yan'an also said weakly.

Ji Chuhe then slowly stood up, walked to Xiao Yan'an, and looked at him with a worried look on his face.

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. I've left guards outside the inn to ensure that not even a fly can fly in." The third prince assured softly.

"Thank you, Third Prince." Xiao Yan'an thanked him immediately.

"I'll see the Third Prince off." Ji Chuhe offered.

"There's no need to see my wife off, Madam." The Third Prince politely declined.

Ji Chuhe still sent the third prince out.

“Third Prince, you don’t know how confused I was when we didn’t know who would investigate the corruption. As soon as I got the news that it was you, I felt reassured.” Ji Chuhe took the initiative to speak.

The third prince understood that Ji Chuhe was surrendering to him.

"Third Prince, I think the Emperor must have noticed my alliance with the Empress, so he granted you and Qingqing a marriage. This is good, our interests are firmly bound together and become indestructible! When the marriage decree came down, my grandfather told me his intentions. Both the Duke's Mansion and the Huaiyang Prince's Mansion will be the third prince's strongest backing! We will definitely do our best to help your Highness ascend to the throne of the crown prince!"

The Third Prince's eyes were filled with emotion. "I know what the Huaiyang Palace and the Rongguo Palace are thinking."

"Your Highness, please take care." Ji Chuhe knelt down towards the Third Prince.

"Go back and take care of Yan An."

The third prince walked out and sat in the carriage.

Ji Chuhe's words echoed in his mind over and over again.

In his heart, he had some doubts about his mother's words.

Should he simply try to please his father, or use the power of the Huaiyang Palace and the Rongguo Palace to ascend to the throne of the crown prince?

If Xiao Yanan died, the situation might really be as the queen mother analyzed.

Can the Rongguo Mansion only accept it, abandon Prince Huaiyang, and assist him wholeheartedly?

The third prince had no answer in his heart.

When Ji Chuhe returned to the house, Mianzhu had already fetched a basin of water. She wet her handkerchief with it and wiped away the tears from her face.

Xiao Yanan looked at her quietly.

Although they knew that her behavior just now was all fake, they were all fake.

However, he still fantasized that she really lost her mind for him.

"Prince, just now, I reminded the Third Prince again, so that he can consider carefully whether to attack you or not."

"Ma'am, I feel like you don't seem to be sad at all, as if you don't care at all about being betrayed."

Ji Chuhe walked forward and looked at Xiao Yanan.

"Prince, from the day you start planning something with someone, you should be prepared to be betrayed. If you don't share the same ideals, you can't plan together. The world is bustling with people, all for profit; the world is bustling with people, all for profit. Isn't this a very normal thing? Why are you sad?"

Xiao Yan'an was stumped by the question.

"If I am really sad, I am also sad that I did not leave a way out and put myself in trouble. If I also have a plan to deal with it, then it won't be a big deal. Besides, if the Queen and the Third Prince really want to take action against the Crown Prince, it will be their loss. They should be the ones who regret it in the future."
