The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

Chapter 134: How Father and Son Get Along

Since Jiang Fan had asked them to help with the trouble, he certainly couldn't just use his power on them and let it go. He still had to do what needed to be done.

On the other hand, on the Chu family's side, everyone felt relieved when they saw the officials fleeing in terror, while those from the Baofan faction were so angry that they criticized those from the Pengfan faction to pieces.

As for Huang Siwen, he had been taken back by Huang Zhenren's men. Huang Zhenren also sent people to Jingzhao Prefecture to bring his wife and concubines back to the mansion. He was going to enforce the family law!

On the other side, Emperor Yan had already received news of what happened on Zhuque Street. When he heard that his son had actually made low-priced paper, he realized that he could not only make money from newspapers, but also from the commercial section.

He was frozen in place, this feeling was so familiar. It was very much like his son's style! It was like this in Huaining County, and it is like this now!

Although the rumors made him think that this might be Chu Yan'er's achievement, he still hoped in his heart that this was all his son's achievement.

After all, which father doesn't want his son to be excellent?

Before he was sure whether his son was controlled by the Chu family, Emperor Yan could only comfort himself in this way.

Thinking of this, Emperor Yan felt inexplicably happy. He raised his lips slightly, and couldn't help wanting to see the miserable state of those court officials.

But Emperor Yan's eyes suddenly turned cold, and when he thought of Lu Yuanqian and Lu Yisheng, a murderous intent surged in his heart.

These two people really deserve to die!

A man who forcibly took his son's wife was disregarding human ethics. A man who kept a mistress was fine, but he also wanted to kill his wife.

For such a crime, if the person is not executed, he will be dismissed from office and exiled!

Emperor Yan knew that he could not just sit back and do nothing about this matter.

After all, the entire capital knew about this matter. If he tried to smooth things over, his prestige as the emperor among the people would be seriously damaged.

He picked up his pen and was about to issue an order to punish Lu Yuanqian and Lu Yisheng when a eunuch walked in.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince is outside seeking an audience."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yan's expression softened a little, and he said calmly, "Let him in!"

The eunuch took the order and went out.

Soon, Jiang Fan stepped in. His steps were steady, and he exuded confidence and a casual demeanor!

When he saw Emperor Yan, Jiang Fan had a playful smile on his face and looked flattering.

"Father, I am here to see you... Father, how are you doing recently? Are you eating well? Are you sleeping well..."

His playful look made Emperor Yan laugh and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

In the entire palace, except for the son in front of him, I am afraid that no other prince or princess dares to get along with him so casually.

However, Emperor Yan, who was used to the respectful attitude of the princes and princesses, actually still suffered from Jiang Fan's approach the most!

After all, with Jiang Fan, he felt like a father, not an emperor!

"You kid, if you don't cause me any more trouble, I will eat and sleep well!" Emperor Yan scolded Jiang Fan with a smile.

He always feels relaxed when he is with his son.

"Your Majesty is right. I will definitely keep it in mind. Next time I will make things bigger!" Jiang Fan looked at Emperor Yan with a smile.

As soon as he said this, Liu Fu next to him almost fainted.

The Eighth Prince is really bold. He dares to joke with His Majesty like this! Remember, if you want to make things worse, aren't you afraid of pissing off your father to death? !

Emperor Yan was stunned for a moment, looking at Jiang Fan's laughing expression, he felt a little dazed. Jiang Fan gave him a very strange feeling.

He did not dislike or feel annoyed by this kind of joke. Instead, it made him feel the normal emotional exchange between father and son.

He looked at Jiang Fan angrily and amusedly and said, "You kid, are you trying to piss off your father to death?"

"How dare I? I wish my father would live a hundred years! Be strong and vigorous! Be full of vigor and domineering... dominate the world..."

Jiang Fan quickly said with a smile.

The flattery continued one after another, and Emperor Yan felt very comfortable with Jiang Fan's flattery, but he also felt overwhelmed.

This kid is becoming more and more slick, but he likes him more and more.

If the rumors were false, then the son in front of him would be his most beloved son.

"Alright, alright... stop flattering me... I know what you want to do. I will issue the decree to deal with Lu Yuanqian and Lu Yisheng immediately. I will only punish the main culprits and will not implicate their families."

Emperor Yan quickly reached out to stop Jiang Fan, then he picked up his pen and began to draft an edict with a smile. Then, he stamped the edict swiftly and glanced at Jiang Fan again.

How could he not know what his son wanted to do by entering the palace? He had encouraged others to help, so he had to give them an explanation. This kid came to him to ask for an explanation.

"Thank you, father. You understand me best..." Jiang Fan said with a flattering look on his face.

When Emperor Yan saw him like this, he waved his hands with a smile and said to him:

"Come on, stop being so cheesy. You didn't learn this from me... If you have nothing else to do, go back quickly. You're getting married soon, so you should start preparing!"

"Your son will leave right away... By the way, Father, this is for you..." Jiang Fan responded quickly.

He took out a stack of papers from his pocket and placed them on the desk. Without waiting for Emperor Yan to ask any questions, he turned around and ran out of the imperial study.

Emperor Yan looked at him with a gentle look in his eyes, yet with a hint of complexity. He murmured softly, "I hope everything is not as the rumors say. Otherwise, I don't mind making the Chu family disappear!"

At the end of his speech, Emperor Yan's eyes were cold and filled with murderous intent.

Retracting his gaze, Emperor Yan took the stack of papers, opened it and took a look.

Instantly, his pupils shrank slightly, and his eyes showed shock, and then ecstasy. He even exclaimed.

“It’s movable type!”

The paper was filled with pictures and some detailed explanations, and the words "movable type printing" were written on the first page.

When Emperor Yan understood the technical drawings above, he felt a little excited.

He finally understood why newspapers could be published once a day.

If this thing can be widely used, Emperor Yan believes that the cost of studying in the entire Great Yan will be greatly reduced, and more talents will be produced!

"This boy! Among all my sons, he is the most filial and the one who understands me the most! I hope everything will be as I guess! However, no matter what the result is, you are my most beloved son!"

Emperor Yan sighed, his eyes determined.

On the other side, Jiang Fan left the palace. He knew that he and the Chu family might face a catastrophe.

He really didn't expect that Ye Ren and others would have such wild imaginations that he was controlled by the Chu family, and even secretly reported it to Emperor Yan, causing Emperor Yan to become suspicious.

If he doesn't behave well at the wedding banquet, not only will he lose favor, but the Chu family may even be destroyed!

What he was thinking at this time was whether the old man would be very touched after getting the movable type printing. He did not feel sorry to give the movable type printing to the old man.

You know, he had killed two of his father's important officials in one fell swoop! If he didn't give some thanks, he would feel a little guilty.

Moreover, every time he comes to show his filial piety and offer treasures, he can get closer to the old man. Why not do it?

Of course, the main reason was because of the rumors. He was afraid that the old man would believe them, so giving him gifts to show his respect could also dispel some of the old man's suspicions, just like offering gunpowder!

He didn't expect the old man to completely ignore the rumors, but at least he wanted the old man to know that he was filial.

Even though the old man thinks he is a waste, he will not love him less.
