The pampered heiress holds the script and leads her cannon fodder family to a counterattack.

Chapter 241 Would you be willing to be my inside man?

The father and son sat and knelt, facing each other in silence.

After a long while, Chang Zijin finally spoke: "Father, I know I was wrong. I will never gamble again."

Chang Jingcheng knew that Chang Zijin had a youthful mindset and had been maliciously misled by bad people, which was why she was like this.

But she still kept a straight face: "You listen to everything others say? Don't you have any opinions of your own?"

Chang Zijin felt heartbroken looking at her father.

"I know I was wrong. I will study hard from now on and not let my father down."

Chang Jingcheng looked at his child, feeling a lingering fear.

Thanks to the woman from Tianji Garden, her son's life was saved, and so was his.

He should take his son back to properly thank them.

He first informed his father about the matter, and his father also felt that such a vicious woman was not worthy of being the daughter-in-law of the Chang family, and agreed to divorce her.

He wrote a letter of divorce and kicked the person out.

Then he took his son to Tianji Garden to thank the woman.

But when they arrived, they found the door was locked and the person was gone.

I found out that they were only there in the mornings.

I've decided to visit again tomorrow morning.

Qin Wanying returned to the Crown Prince's residence and told the Crown Prince what she had seen and heard that day.

Xiao Jiye thought to himself, "Yuezhou is a large prefecture. If the governor of Yuezhou were to defect to the king, things would be very difficult."

“Husband, the governor of Yuezhou will probably go to Tianji Garden again tomorrow. Why don’t you go and meet him?”

The Crown Prince thought the suggestion was excellent.

When this person returned to the capital to pay homage, I saw him myself, but I always felt that I couldn't really figure out what he was thinking.

I'll go meet this person tomorrow.

The next day, Qin Wanying and the Crown Prince went to Tianji Garden together.

The Crown Prince stayed in the inner room, while Qin Wanying was telling fortunes outside.

After a while, Chang Jingcheng came in, bringing a young man with him. Qin Wanying looked at him and saw that it was her son.

It seems the Chang family's matter has been resolved.

Qin Wanying was happy, after all, she had saved someone's life.

As soon as Chang Jingcheng entered, he bowed to Qin Wanying and said, "Thank you, Madam, for saving my son's fate!"

Turning to her son, she said, "Zijin, quickly thank your wife!"

Chang Zijin also bowed to Qin Wanying: "Thank you, Madam!"

Chang Jingcheng continued, "I will never forget your great kindness, Madam. If you ever need anything in the future, please don't hesitate to ask!"

Qin Wanying looked at Chang Jingcheng and bowed slightly, saying, "I do have something I need from you, sir. I beg you to save the people from this suffering!"

Chang Jingcheng stared at Qin Wanying, momentarily stunned.

He was merely the governor of Yuezhou; how could he possibly have the ability to save the people from suffering?

Qin Wanying very subtly told Chang Jingcheng about the War King's intention to rebel. If the rebellion succeeded, the world would be plunged into war and the people would suffer.

They also hoped that Chang Jingcheng could join the Crown Prince's camp.

Chang Jingcheng looked at Qin Wanying and fell into deep thought.

Unexpectedly, this lady was actually one of the Crown Prince's people.

He remembered that two years ago, the Crown Prince had no power in the court, and His Majesty was in poor health, so the Empress Dowager controlled the government.

Now that they have returned to the capital, they find that the Crown Prince has great prestige in the court, and many people have already pledged their allegiance to him.

He was still surprised at how quickly things had changed.

Now that I've seen Qin Wanying, I have some guesses in my mind. Could it be that she received help from this divine being?

Seeing Chang Jingcheng's hesitant attitude, Qin Wanying said, "Why don't we let His Highness have a talk with you personally?"

Chang Jingcheng was even more surprised. Could it be that the young lady wanted to introduce him to the Crown Prince?

Immediately afterwards, the door to the inner room opened, and Chang Jingcheng looked up to see a man walking out of the inner room. He was dressed in casual clothes, but could not hide the aura of a superior.

Chang Jingcheng was shocked. Wasn't this His Highness the Crown Prince?

He hurriedly pulled his son to his feet and made him kneel down to pay his respects to the Crown Prince.

Qin Wanying instructed Xuemei to lock the door and said, "You two talk first, I'll go to the inner room."

Xiao Jiye then sat down and started chatting with Chang Jingcheng.

From people's livelihood to international relations, and then to the philosophy of governance.

Chang Jingcheng looked at Xiao Jiye and couldn't help but look at him with new respect.

On the one hand, they marveled at the Crown Prince's exceptional insight; on the other hand, they were captivated by his personal charisma.

Chang Jingcheng used to only admire the late emperor, but now he feels that the crown prince has some of the late emperor's shadow in him, and even his insights in some aspects are stronger than those of the late emperor.

Moreover... I wonder what kind of background this lady from Tianji Garden has that she's willing to help His Highness the Crown Prince.

With this divine assistance, the country will surely be secure in the future.

He originally did not have a clear stance.

Now, he has decided to stand on the side of the Crown Prince.

Chang Jingcheng knelt on the ground: "Your Highness, I am willing to give my life for you."

Xiao Jiye quickly helped him up: "Having such a capable person as Lord Chang is a blessing for our Great Yao."

"However, Lord Chang, the War King will probably try to win you over later. Would it be alright if you pretended to agree and became my inside man?" Xiao Jiye continued.

Wan Ying had told him that the War King would definitely try to win over Chang Jingcheng. It might be better to let Chang Jingcheng be an inside man; he might be of great use in the future.

Chang Jingcheng replied earnestly, "Your Highness, I will obey your orders."

Xiao Jiye looked at Chang Jingcheng and smiled with satisfaction.

Seeing that the two had finished their conversation and Chang Jingcheng was about to leave, Qin Wanying came out to see them off.

Chang Jingcheng was still speculating about the relationship between the two.

The crown prince was able to appear in this lady's inner chamber.

Suddenly I remembered that His Highness got married a few days ago. His wife was Princess Shenji, who could also tell fortunes.

Could this be the young lady?

As Chang Jingcheng watched the two's intimate behavior, he became more and more certain of his guess.

However, he didn't dare ask anything and simply left.

[Ding! Helping value increased by 40. Please keep up the good work, host!]

Qin Wanying gave a satisfied smile.

This move intercepted the War King, planted an inside agent, saved a young man's fate, and even increased his "helping others" value.

Good, good, keep up the good work!

After Chang Jingcheng and his son left, Xiao Jiye and Qin Wanying returned to the Crown Prince's residence.

In the bedroom, Xiao Jiye looked at Qin Wanying with a gentle expression: "This time, we owe a great debt to Madam; otherwise, Lord Chang would not have helped us."

Qin Wanying smiled faintly: "It's because my husband has personal charm."

Xiao Jiye stroked Qin Wanying's slender hand and said earnestly, "Wanying, it's so good to have you. Actually, I've always been very grateful to you. It was because of your appearance that I was able to turn the tide of the battle and change my destiny."

Xiao Jiye's eyes reddened as he spoke.

He remembered the dream he had before he met Qin Wanying.

The "goddess" in his dream was Qin Wanying; she really came to save him.

He was truly grateful to Qin Wanying; without her, his fate might have been certain destruction.

Qin Wanying looked into Xiao Jiye's eyes and knew that what he said was true.

"Why are you getting all sentimental?" Qin Wanying said with a smile.

Xiao Jiye pulled Qin Wanying into his arms and let her rest her head against his chest: "I just don't know how to thank you enough."

Qin Wanying buried her head in Xiao Jiye's chest and smiled.

"Since my husband doesn't know how to thank me, shall I tell him?"
