The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

They are not on the public list, nor are they on the private list. They are a group of troublemakers organized by the capital's dandies.

After the public list and the private list were released, this group of playboys who didn't support anyone also organized a private list. This list appeared last night.

The source of their information was also collected by their subordinates in Huainan Prefecture, and then sent back by carrier pigeons.

They reported back yesterday about Jiang Fan boiling manure and digging stones, and they also announced it at that time.

Moreover, these people also announced that their list would be more credible than public and private lists.

Because they do not represent any party. The common people actually know that the public list represents the court, and the private list represents several princes and court officials.

Emperor Yan is somewhat biased towards the eighth prince Jiang Fan, but these people on the private list want to kill Jiang Fan all the time, so the fairness of this is questionable.

As for the private lists organized by these playboys, they are neutral. They do not favor any side and only report the facts.

So, when the people on this list spoke out, the people who were still somewhat skeptical immediately believed it.

Anyway, there are two confirmed lists, so how can it be fake?

Compared to those people on the private list, the group of dandy people are no worse. The people on the private list are waiting for Jiang Fan, and they are also waiting for him.

They may not be able to collect information about what happened around Jiang Fan, but when Jiang Fan led his troops to leave Huaining Prefecture, they followed quietly just like those people on the private list.

They watched from afar as the two strongholds were destroyed and the bandits were taken back to Huaining County. They almost passed the news back together with the people on the private list.

The people below believed it, but the princes and court officials on the second floor of the restaurant still didn't want to believe it.

Because, in their perception, Jiang Fan is a waste who can't accomplish anything.

But now, what did they hear? Jiang Fan not only did not act blindly, but also wiped out two gangs of bandits. Can they accept this fact?

Their first thought was that this news must be from a conspiracy between Emperor Yan and that group of playboys who formed a private list to clear Jiang Fan's name.

But just as they were thinking this, someone hurried upstairs. When he saw the princes, his face looked very ugly and his eyes were full of hesitation.

The moment they saw this man, the princes and court officials had a bad feeling in their hearts.

Because this person is the person in charge of collecting intelligence about Huaining. His coming here can only mean that there is new news coming from Huaining.

Sure enough, the man walked over quickly, handed the news to the eldest prince, and said, "Your Highness, the Eighth Prince wiped out the bandits in Wohu Mountain and Tianlang Mountain last night. Our people got the news after they found out that the Eighth Prince led his troops out of the city and quietly followed him."

Upon hearing this news, several princes and court officials were stunned. They looked at each other, and the expressions on their faces were shocking and hot.

What did they do these two days? They thought Jiang Fan was a clown and celebrated wildly. They even gathered together to celebrate.

But now thinking about it, they celebrated loneliness and a clown. They thought Jiang Fan was just having fun.

But everything Jiang Fan did had a hidden meaning behind it. He was cooking manure? But he wasn't cooking manure, he was making weapons.

The people at the scene felt pain on their faces, the kind that hurt from being hit.

Speaking of which, they had mocked Jiang Fan for cooking manure more than once.

But now, they know that they are the clown.

They felt the pain in their faces now because of how much they mocked Jiang Fan for boiling feces.

Although the intelligence did not mention that Jiang Fan boiled manure to make weapons, it did mention that the weapons with explosion sounds like thunder were constantly making noises.

Later, their people secretly went to check and found that the gates of the two mountain strongholds were indeed blown to pieces by something. Combined with the information published in the public notice, they had no choice but to believe it.

"Humph... so what if he destroyed two gangs of bandits? Even if he passed this level, don't forget that he cheated on the livelihood of the people. In order to supply the people, he dug some useless stones. Even if he wins and returns, I will report him for cheating."

Ye Ren came back to his senses and snorted coldly.

As he spoke, the eyes of the ministers and princes, who were as white as frost-bitten eggplants, lit up.

Yes, Jiang Fan's bet had three conditions to be met. Even if he succeeded in suppressing the bandits, what would happen? There were still two things he hadn't finished.

Jiang Fan seemed to have accomplished the task of finding a livelihood for the people, but the people recruited by Jiang Fan only did some work, except for cooking manure, but what about the rest of the people?

They are all digging stones. What's the use of those useless stones? Asking the people to dig stones is the same as supplying them. Jiang Fan is cheating.

At that time, they only need to report Jiang Fan for this matter, and Jiang Fan will lose no matter what. A bet won by cheating? It counts!

Not to mention, in addition to the livelihood issues of the people, Jiang Fan also needs to stabilize the grain price. Now the grain price in Huai'an Prefecture is twice as high.

They have already made preparations. After ten days or half a month, they will join forces with grain merchants in Huai'an County to lower the price of grain.

When it comes to grain prices, Chu Yan'er is one step ahead of Jiang Fan.

As for Jiang Fan, this guy never even asked about the price of grain, which has now risen five times.

In addition, these people are fanning the flames and promising a lot of benefits to the grain merchants.

Now all those grain merchants are determined not to lower the price. No matter how powerful Jiang Fan is, he cannot stabilize the grain price. He has to lose.

Thinking of this, the princes and court officials felt much better.

However, they were no longer in the good mood they just had. As soon as the list was released, they thought about their excited and proud celebration just now, and their faces were burning with embarrassment.

At this moment, the guard downstairs came up with an ugly and weird look on his face, holding three packages in his hands.

Seeing the three packages, everyone present was stunned. The guard brought the packages to the three princes and said hesitantly, "Your Highnesses, someone just threw three packages at the door. I saw it. It's..."

At this point, the guard hesitated for a moment, glanced at the three princes who looked suspicious, and said, "These are the heads of the three guests sent to Huaining!"

Hearing this, the three princes' faces changed slightly. They quickly asked the guards to open the package, only to see three bloody and dried human heads rolling out from it.

This was specially brought back by Jiang Fan who sent someone across thousands of miles at night.

Seeing the three people die with their eyes open, everyone at the scene gasped in shock, their eyes filled with fear.

The three princes could not help but step back, but soon, anger welled up in their eyes. They knew who sent the head.

Who else could it be except Jiang Fan, who wiped out two major bandit dens.

Jiang Fan was demonstrating to them and provoking them. The three princes were so angry that they were shaking all over, their eyes were frighteningly cold, and they felt very aggrieved.

Especially the eldest prince Jiang Yi, he almost vomited blood. In order to deal with Jiang Fan, he lost three capable assistants at once.

In addition to Kang Qian and Lu Ranfeng, there was another counselor and retainer. He was so angry that he smashed the table and kicked over and broke a lot of things around him.

"Jiang Fan... I will never let you have an easy life, I will..."

The other two princes were also in a very embarrassing situation. Their subordinates were killed and their heads were sent to them. How could they be happy?

However, the two of them suffered less damage than the eldest prince, so they were relatively restrained. But they were also so angry that veins popped out of their foreheads.

After venting his anger, the eldest prince Jiang Yi suppressed the anger in his heart, his eyes full of coldness and mockery.

"Hmph... Jiang Fan, I'll let you be proud for a while. I'll see how you solve the grain price problem and how you defend your cheating. Just wait! I'll... make sure you don't laugh anymore!"
