The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

It was really that Jiang Fan was too weird, so weird that they felt like a frightened bird. No matter what Jiang Fan did, they felt that Jiang Fan might have a backup plan.

It's because they suffered too many losses at the hands of Jiang Fan. After suffering so many losses, they inexplicably developed a fear of Jiang Fan.

Ye Ren said solemnly:

"I feel a little uneasy. I always feel that something is going to happen. I will send some people to hide in the dark tomorrow. If it is impossible to do anything..."

At this point, he paused, sighed and said, "If it's impossible, then just kill... him!"

He said this with great difficulty. Ye Ren really didn't want to make this decision. After all, one of the men was his nephew.

But Jiang Fan hadn't responded in the past few days, which made him feel more and more uneasy. If something unexpected happened tomorrow and the person couldn't be brought to their hands, then Jiang Fan bringing the person back would be extremely disadvantageous to them.

Once Ye and Hou get involved, even if the three princes are not in danger, someone among them will definitely have to take the blame. And it has to be an important official.

If Ye Shixuan were to blame Ye Ren, then Ye Ren would have to bear the blame. Losing his position and title would be a minor matter, but if things go wrong, he might even be executed! The three princes might even lose the possibility of winning the throne.

He really couldn't bear such a risk. So, he had to make two preparations. He had to do everything he could to get the person, and if that didn't work, he would kill him!

The eldest prince, the third prince, the fifth prince, Huang Zhenren and other court officials heard this and looked at Ye Ren with surprise in their eyes, but soon, Jiang Yi shook his head and said:

"Grandpa, don't worry. Father has agreed to let the three courts hold a joint trial. This matter has been settled! Nothing will happen..."

As soon as he said this, Ye Ren frowned, and the expression on his face eased a little. He just hoped that he was overthinking. After all, Emperor Yan had nodded and agreed to the joint trial of the three courts.

The Emperor of Yan will never go back on his word once he has promised!

…………

The next day, the Emperor of Yan appeared at the East Gate early in the morning with his court officials. At this time, in addition to the Imperial Guards protecting the Emperor and his court officials, there were also a lot of common people crowding at the city gate.

Jiang Fan not only investigated the issue of grain tax, but also put down the rebellion of the Red Lotus Sect. He achieved such an unprecedented feat that it was not an exaggeration for Emperor Yan to personally go out of the city to welcome him.

Emperor Yan sat on his dragon mount, looking expectantly at the official road ahead, with a smile on his face that never stopped. He was really happy at this moment.

He hadn't seen his son for more than a month and missed him terribly, not to mention that his son had done such a wonderful thing for him. How could he not be happy?

Looking at the people around him cheering and fanatically worshipping his son, he felt even more happy and proud.

Soon, two groups of people appeared on the official road ahead, coming towards this side, one on the left and one on the right. The group on the left was larger, all of them were on horseback. The group on the right was also all on horseback.

But the team on the right only has about a hundred people in total, while the team on the left has thousands of people.

Seeing the two teams appear, Emperor Yan frowned, with a look of surprise in his eyes. There were three prisoner carts mixed in the team on the left, and there were also five prisoner carts mixed in the team on the right.

This situation made him slightly stunned. The court officials were also somewhat confused by the two teams on the official road ahead.

However, when the team got closer and they saw the people on both sides, they were all stunned.

On the left are Jiang Fan, the Chu brothers, and Jiang Fan’s private soldiers, the White Robe Army, and on the right is Chu Yan’er, the prince’s consort.

No one could understand why Chu Yan'er appeared outside the city. Judging from her appearance, she seemed to have returned from another place. What was going on?

The court officials were puzzled, and only the Sixth Prince, who was standing among the princes, knew the reason. Chu Yan'er secretly ran to Huaining County, and then wiped out all the elite troops under his command.

Looking at Chu Yan'er's figure, the Sixth Prince's eyes were filled with anger and unwillingness. When he looked at Jiang Fan, his eyes were filled with deep jealousy.

Jiang Fan is a loser, how could he marry a wonderful woman like Chu Yan'er? If Chu Yan'er hadn't helped Jiang Fan, the gift he prepared for Jiang Fan would have made Jiang Fan panic by now. He might even have died in his hands.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. His eyes became extremely gloomy. The Sixth Prince Jiang Zheng, who always looked calm and low-key in front of outsiders, exuded a terrifying aura today.

Jiang Fan saw Emperor Yan and other court officials at the east gate from afar. He scanned the crowd and found the Sixth Prince, Ye Ren, the First Prince, the Third Prince, the Fifth Prince, Huang Zhenren and others.

The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously. Today, a big show was bound to take place outside the East Gate. It all depended on who could hold their composure.

However, Jiang Fan soon noticed Chu Yan'er coming over from the right. The moment he saw her, a tenderness welled up in Jiang Fan's eyes, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

His wife is indeed a good helper. She managed his rear so well when he was away. If it weren't for Chu Yan'er, the issue in Huaining County could have been resolved.

But it is absolutely impossible to solve it so perfectly. Even Huaining County will definitely suffer losses, at least about 30%.

Now that Chu Yan'er is here, not only is there no loss, but the Sixth Prince has also been caught with a handle. Although Jiang Fan knows this handle, with the Sixth Prince Jiang Zheng's ability, the harm to him may not be great.

But he was also happy to disgust the other party. In addition, with Zhao Jingzhong's testimony, even if Jiang Fan was not stripped of his title and demoted to a commoner, he would never be able to hide in the dark and be the sixth in command again.

Even more, he will be restricted in his future actions. Jiang Fan had never thought of killing the princes, not that Jiang Fan did not want to kill them.

There is no family affection in the struggle for imperial power. If he doesn't kill others, others will kill him. If he is too soft-hearted, he will only die quickly.

But as long as Emperor Yan was still alive, he could not kill other princes. If he really regarded Emperor Yan as his father, it would be best if he did not fight against his own family for the time being.

Besides, Emperor Yan would never let Jiang Fan kill his brothers, because he chose Jiang Fan to be the emperor and he could not allow Jiang Fan to have any stain on him.

After all, Emperor Yan had such a stain on him, and he had never washed it away in his life. He didn't want Jiang Fan to repeat his mistakes.

"Brother Fan..." When the two teams were only a hundred feet apart, Chu Yan'er rode out on her horse and rushed towards Jiang Fan, her eyes full of joy and deep longing.

When her warhorse rushed to within twenty or thirty feet of Jiang Fan, her body instantly flew up, and she pounced directly at Jiang Fan like a young swallow returning to its nest.

Seeing this, the Chu brothers, Zhong Ling, and Su Yuqing's faces changed slightly, fearing that Chu Yan'er would knock Jiang Fan off his horse. If this happened, Jiang Fan would be in trouble!
