Auxiliary Women's Strategy: A Virtuous Wife Helps the King to Rule the World

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. With ample financial support and the Crown Prince's staunch backing, Su Nan's strategy was implemented with ease. Now, not only within the capital, but also in the other provinces of the empire, almost everyone knew about the Longteng Chamber of Commerce, Su Nan, and the magical soap. Even in the seven neighboring kingdoms, many people knew about it.

The Longteng Chamber of Commerce is a prosperous place with people coming and going every day and transactions taking place frequently.

One day, the eldest prince took a curious tour of the Chamber of Commerce, led by a respectful servant to the reception room. He leisurely sipped a drink called coffee. Lately, he had grown quite fond of this unique drink, bitter yet fragrant.

"Where is the chairman? Ask her to come see me." The eldest prince put down the exquisite coffee cup in his hand and calmly instructed the servants.

"Yes!" the servant responded hurriedly and went to invite Su Nan.

"Feifan, wait for me here, I'll be back soon." After hearing the servant's report, Su Nan nodded slightly and turned to Chen Feifan and said.

Not long after, Su Nan arrived at the reception room, bowed slightly, and said respectfully, "Greetings, Your Highness. I wonder why you would like to see me today?"

The eldest prince slowly put down the coffee cup in his hand, his eyes fell on Su Nan, with a bit of caution and inquiry in his eyes, he slowly said: "Su Nan, I came here today, firstly, I want to see the bustling scene of your Chamber of Commerce now, and secondly, I do have some things in my heart that I want to talk to you about."

Su Nan's face lit up with a perfect smile, and he responded, "It is a great honor for Su Nan to have your presence and favor in person, Your Highness. Please feel free to speak."

The eldest prince stood up and walked to the window. With his back to Su Nan, he said with some admiration, "Under your management, our Chamber of Commerce has flourished and has made a remarkable name for itself in the capital. This prince greatly appreciates your outstanding abilities."

Su Nan bowed and said, "Your Highness, thank you for your praise. I have only done my bit. We are in a good position now thanks to your generous help."

The eldest prince turned around, staring directly at Su Nan, and said frankly without any concealment, "Su Nan, you should know that the current situation is complicated and unpredictable, and all forces are secretly preparing to make moves. Although this prince holds a high position, he also feels the weight of his responsibility. I urgently need capable people to assist me loyally."

Su Nan's heart trembled slightly. In fact, he had already guessed some of the eldest prince's intentions, but he remained calm and said calmly, "The eldest prince cares about the people of the world and is concerned about the country and the people. Su Nan admires your broad mind. If there is an opportunity to serve the eldest prince, Su Nan will definitely give it his all, even if it means death."

The eldest prince smiled slightly, approached Su Nan, lowered his voice, and said with a touch of affection: "Su Nan, you are extremely intelligent and clever, and you also have extraordinary business talent. If you can serve me wholeheartedly, you will definitely achieve great things in the future. I am willing to provide you with a wider space and stage for you to display your talents to the fullest."

Su Nan quickly bowed and said with deep trepidation, "Your Highness, I am deeply grateful for your kindness. However, I feel that I am not talented enough and I am afraid that I will not live up to your high expectations."

The eldest prince waved his hand and said firmly, "There's no need to be overly modest. This prince has always had an unerring eye for people. One more thing..." The eldest prince paused, a subtle flicker of tenderness in his eyes. "Su Nan, you are not only exceptionally talented, but also beautiful. This prince... truly has a favorable impression of you."

Su Nan was startled and quickly said, "I am deeply grateful for the Crown Prince's kindness. However, I am just an ordinary businessman and I am afraid I cannot take on such an important responsibility. I will do my utmost to serve the Crown Prince. As for marriage, I have no such thoughts or plans at the moment. I hope the Crown Prince can understand. However, I am willing to do my utmost to assist the Crown Prince in his bid for the throne as a way to repay his kindness."

The eldest prince's expression changed slightly. After a moment's silence, he said, "Well, this prince has never been an unreasonable person. A forced melon will never be sweet. But since you have already promised to help me win the throne, you must not break your promise."

Su Nan said solemnly, "Don't worry, Your Highness. Su Nan will definitely keep his promise and will not lie."

The eldest prince nodded slightly. "Alright, I trust you. Now, do you have any specific strategies that could help me gain the upper hand in this fierce battle for the throne?"

Su Nan pondered for a moment and spoke clearly, "Grand Prince, the current situation is still unclear. We must first consolidate our foundation and recruit talented individuals. Furthermore, we must be keenly aware of the movements of various factions and carefully identify their weaknesses. Furthermore, establishing a good reputation and prestige among the people is also crucial."

The eldest prince frowned slightly and asked, "How should this be implemented specifically?"

Su Nan continued methodically, "We can fully leverage the Chamber of Commerce's powerful influence to organize a series of charitable activities, sincerely helping the poor and winning their hearts. At the same time, we can secretly and carefully win over some powerful officials and aristocratic families. However, we must be cautious in doing so and not give anyone else any leverage."

The eldest prince nodded thoughtfully: "Well, what you said is very true and quite reasonable."

Su Nan replied, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I will definitely fulfill my mission and do my best."

The eldest prince nodded with satisfaction: "By the way, Su Nan, I recently received some news. I heard that the seventh prince seems to be ready to make a move."

Su Nan said, "Grand Prince, from what I understand, the Seventh Prince has acted recklessly within his territory, recklessly increasing taxes and making life miserable for the local people. Perhaps we can start from here and expose his evil deeds to win the hearts of the people."

Furthermore, I have a subordinate named Chen Feifan. His family was once a wealthy family in Feiyun Province in the southern part of the Great Xia Empire, but unfortunately, they were framed by the Seventh Prince, ultimately ending up with a tragic end. If we can seize this rare opportunity to bring down the Seventh Prince, it will not only win supreme reputation for you, the First Prince, but also avenge Chen Feifan.

The eldest prince pondered for a moment and said cautiously, "This matter requires long-term consideration. We must not act hastily, lest we alert the enemy."

Su Nan replied, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I have a preliminary plan. We can first secretly gather evidence of the Seventh Prince's crimes, then arrange for reliable people to spread the news widely among the people, thereby arousing public outrage. At the same time, we can unite with those ministers in the court who are dissatisfied with the Seventh Prince and jointly submit a petition to impeach him."

The eldest prince nodded slightly. "Well, this plan seems feasible. But we must proceed with caution and not reveal any flaws."

"Su Nan understands."

"There's one more thing..." Su Nan seemed very hesitant at this time, and was hesitant to speak.

"Oh? Just say it." The eldest prince waved his hand generously, indicating that Su Nan didn't need to worry.

"Has the eldest prince ever heard of the world outside the domain?" Su Nan asked tentatively.

The eldest prince's eyebrows raised when he heard this, and he said seriously, "This is a secret of my royal family. How did you know this?"

Su Nan remained calm and replied, "Has the eldest prince forgotten my master?"

"Oh! That's it, I almost forgot. Why did you suddenly bring this up?" The eldest prince breathed a sigh of relief and his expression relaxed a little.

"A month ago, I encountered a terrifying assassination attempt. It was late at night, and I was walking alone on my way home. Suddenly, several dark shadows suddenly emerged from the darkness like ghosts. They moved as fast as the wind, and their agility was extraordinary. At a glance, it was obvious that they were well-trained professional assassins. I was shocked and instantly realized that this was a carefully planned and premeditated assassination. The assassins attacked with ruthless and deadly moves, showing no mercy. I dodged desperately, while trying my best to find an opportunity to counterattack. During the fierce fight, I gradually realized that their moves were somewhat familiar, and seemed to be similar to those of the Central Region Tongtian. The martial arts styles of the Divine Cults are extremely similar. I secretly cried out in my heart, knowing that if they succeeded, the consequences would be disastrous. Fortunately, I have put a lot of effort into training every day. With some of my own unique skills and improvisation, I finally succeeded in finding their flaws and killing them in one fell swoop. Before the last killer died, he glared at me fiercely and said with gritted teeth that it was the Seventh Prince who ordered them to take my life. "First Prince, you see, this Seventh Prince, in order to eliminate dissidents, secretly colluded with the forces of the Central Region. His crime is truly unforgivable." Su Nan finished speaking in one breath, his expression filled with anger and fear.

The eldest prince was stunned, thought for a moment, and said decisively: "You just said to impeach the seventh prince. There is no time to waste. I will send people to collect evidence."
