The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince
Chapter 246 Killing Red Eyes
Hejian Prefecture, ever since the great battle outside Tianxian Pavilion, the entire prefecture city has become turbulent, and many industries under Governor Zhao Jingzhong have been attacked.
Either things were robbed or his men were killed. In addition to the industries under Zhao Jingzhong, the industries related to Tianxian Pavilion were also affected. Accidents happened from time to time.
The Red Lotus Cult and Governor Zhao Jingzhong were extremely worried and trembling with anger. The Red Lotus Cult knew who was behind this.
Zhao Jingzhong, however, was completely confused. He was the underground emperor of Hejian Prefecture. Anyone who dared to touch him would not only take away his property, but also send people to assassinate him.
When he found out about Ye and Hou, he was even more confused.
He has always maintained a peaceful coexistence with these two guys, why are they making things difficult for him? !
How could he know that Jiang Fan sending Zhong Ling to assassinate Ye and Hou would not only make the two hate Zhao Jingzhong so much, but also make them think that their son might have been killed deliberately by Zhao Jingzhong to make an example of them!
It was precisely because of this that Ye and Hou dared to risk losing everything in Hejian Mansion and turned against Zhao Jingzhong.
They have been bullied to such an extent, why are they still enduring it? They are lucky to have survived, but there is no guarantee that they will be alive next time.
So, just do it if you can. If you can find an opportunity to kill Zhao Jingzhong, that would be the best of course.
Zhao Jingzhong and the Red Lotus Sect certainly couldn't afford this loss, so the Hejianfu industry that Ye Shixuan and Hou Qinglin were in charge of was hit. Ye Shixuan himself was also assassinated.
The fight between the two sides almost reached a fever pitch, with each side fighting back and forth.
The situation in the entire Hejian Prefecture became even more complicated and confusing at this moment.
After Jiang Fan mentioned to Su Yuqing that he was going to move into the Governor's Mansion that night, Su Yuqing took Jiang Fan and the little girl Xiaocao and sneaked into the Governor's Mansion in a carriage that night.
She arranged Jiang Fan to live in her own courtyard.
The whole yard is very large, and it is no problem for twenty or thirty people to live here.
The Chu brothers and Zhong Ling, who had just returned from work, also moved in.
Zhong Ling brought Jiang Fan the specific address of the Red Lotus Sect's grain storage area.
As expected of the former intelligence network of the Blood Cloud Tower, it can even find out such confidential secrets as the Red Lotus Cult.
Jiang Fan was not in a hurry to get the food back, because the food was in Hejian Mansion and he could get it back at any time if he wanted.
Currently, the entire Hejian Prefecture is filled with people from Ye, Hou, Zhao and the Red Lotus Sect. If he goes to retrieve the food now, it is not certain whether he can transport the food back safely.
If he were to show up now, the four forces that were fighting each other for life and death would probably unite to deal with him in an instant.
He was waiting... waiting for his layout to be complete, and also waiting for these four forces to engage in a life-and-death feud.
He was not worried that the food would fly away. The Red Lotus Cult was about to revolt, so they did not transport the food out of Hejian Prefecture.
In addition to the inconvenience of transportation, they also had the idea of seizing Hejian Prefecture. If they took Hejian Prefecture, the grain stored in it would also belong to them.
………………
There was chaos in Hejian Prefecture, with the four major forces fighting each other every day.
Several princes in the capital, Ye Ren and others were waiting for news from Hejian Prefecture.
Jiang Fan's disappearance for so long made them nervous.
Originally, they were planning to let the three forces in Hejian Prefecture find an opportunity to kill Jiang Fan in Hejian Prefecture.
Even if Jiang Fan could not be killed, with the three forces joining forces, Jiang Fan would be completely in the dark if he wanted to find out where the grain tax went.
But at this moment, they received news from Hejian Prefecture that the three forces were fighting each other.
As for the Tianxian Pavilion, they always thought it belonged to Zhao Jingzhong and did not think of it as the Red Lotus Sect.
Therefore, they only thought of the four fighting forces as three forces. Zhao Jingzhong was an independent force.
When they heard the news of the three-party fight, several people stood there in a daze, their eyes filled with shock, and it took them a long time to come back to their senses.
Before they could get Jiang Fan, chaos and gunfighting broke out.
Ye Ren couldn't understand why Ye Shixuan and Hou Qinglin were against Zhao Jingzhong. They should have been living in peace with each other.
As for Zhao Jingzhong, Ye Ren knew that there was a prince in the court behind him.
After all, in addition to the eldest, third and fifth princes, there are four other princes who can participate in the fight for the throne: the second, fourth, sixth and seventh princes.
Each of these four men seemed ordinary, but he believed that these four princes were definitely not willing to be mediocre, and there was a high possibility that they were secretly building up their power.
Because there is no major conflict of interest between the two parties for the time being, Hejian Prefecture and Zhao Jingzhong are maintaining a delicate balance.
Moreover, Zhao Jingzhong has been running Hejian Prefecture for nearly ten years, and his power is deeply rooted. Even a governor like Su Yuanguang, who was sent there a few years ago, has to act according to his mood.
Therefore, it is best to avoid conflict with Zhao Jingzhong if possible.
But they never expected that the delicate balance was inexplicably broken when Jiang Fan was about to go to Hejian Mansion.
Ye Ren and others instinctively felt that all this was related to Jiang Fan, but they couldn't understand how Jiang Fan instigated a fight between Ye, Hou and Zhao Jingzhong.
What is worrying Ye Ren and the eldest prince now is that if the two sides fight like this, it might turn out to be a disaster.
Who knows what Jiang Fan’s intention was when he let them fight.
But no matter what Jiang Fan was thinking, Ye Ren still gave orders to Ye and Hou to track down Jiang Fan's whereabouts with all their strength.
It would be best to kill him after discovering him, and then put the blame on Zhao Jingzhong. Don't fight anymore!
On the other side, when the Sixth Prince heard about the fight between the four major forces, he instantly became furious. He smashed the desk in front of him into pieces with one palm.
Originally, he thought that the four major forces in Hejian Prefecture were hostile to Jiang Fan, and as soon as Jiang Fan entered Hejian Prefecture, the four major forces would send people to assassinate him.
Even if Jiang Fan entered Hejian Mansion in secret, the four major forces would definitely find a way to dig him out. By then, Jiang Fan would have no choice but to die.
But who would have thought that now that Jiang Fan has not been found, the four major forces are in chaos.
In this situation, the four major forces are now acting independently and are too busy to fight among themselves, so how can they have the energy to track down Jiang Fan?
He never thought that Jiang Fanren would mess up Hejian Prefecture before he even arrived there.
"Send someone to inform Zhao Jingzhong and ask him to track down Jiang Fan's whereabouts. If he is found, kill him without mercy! Tell him to put other matters aside." The Sixth Prince snorted coldly.
The confidant who reported the intelligence nodded after hearing this.
However, his expression was slightly grim as he said, "Your Highness, I'm afraid Zhao Jingzhong will disobey your orders!"
Upon hearing this, the Sixth Prince raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Seeing him like this, his confidant hurriedly said, "In this incident, Zhao Jingzhong was stabbed and almost killed. A beloved concubine who was accompanying him was stabbed to death."
Upon hearing this, the Sixth Prince's anger, which had just been suppressed, suddenly surfaced again.
He clenched his fists, his eyes blazing with anger.
