Chapter 404 Is He Really Your Biological Son?
Chen Zhan finally left the box, and Chen Changan just sneered.
No matter what the King of Huainan does, Chen Changan is now ready. To put it bluntly, even if Chen Fusheng and the Chu family rebel, he is not without the ability to fight.
After eating hotpot with Lao Ma, Chen Changan returned to his home.
The next day, Sun Jingyi ran in hurriedly when I just woke up.
"Brother, there are many soldiers outside the door, saying they want to see you."
"The Emperor's men?"
"No, it's Chu Xinghe."
Chen Changan just laughed. The Chu family really didn't let him idle and visited him one after another.
Unfortunately, Chen Changan didn't have time to pay attention to them. He finished his breakfast with Lao Ma leisurely and walked out of the front hall around noon.
Chu Xinghe exuded a cold aura. He wore a heavy helmet on his head and armor that fit his body tightly. Every piece of armor had a cold metallic luster.
His back was straight, his hands rested naturally on his knees, and his stern eyes were looking straight ahead, like a deep cold pond that made people dare not look directly at him.
When Chen Changan walked out, Chu Xinghe's eyes narrowed.
"Chen Changan, in terms of official position, I am a general guarding the border, and in terms of personal relationship, I am your uncle."
Chu Xinghe suppressed his anger and said, "How dare you leave me here for so long?"
"So what?" Chen Changan said disdainfully.
"Chu Xinghe, you can show off your power in other places, I can't control it, and I don't want to control it. When you come to my doorstep, you have to follow my rules."
"If you have something to say, just say it. If not, get out of here!"
"presumptuous!"
Before Chu Xinghe could say anything, a guard behind him had already been annoyed.
The guard's face was ferocious, and just as he was about to scold Chen Changan, he felt a sudden chill on his neck!
But Lao Ma appeared at some point and put a dagger coldly on the guard's neck.
"Be careful what you say, okay?"
The guard was trembling all over. How did Lao Ma... appear?
Chu Xinghe naturally knew about the Blood-Robed Dragon Guards, and he immediately gritted his teeth and said, "The Blood-Robed Dragon Guards cannot hurt anyone at will, especially the generals of the imperial court!"
"You dare to disobey the emperor's order, are you planning to rebel?"
"I am rebelling, why should I be accused of such a big crime?"
Old Ma sneered and put away the dagger: "I will protect the young master. I will kill anyone who dares to speak rudely to him, including you, General Chu."
Chu Xinghe's face suddenly changed: "Dare to threaten me?"
"So what?"
Old Ma chuckled and said nothing. Chen Changan took out his musket and said, "Chu Xinghe, you'd better be polite, otherwise you will have more holes in your body!"
"Snapped!!"
Chen Changan aimed at the vase on the table and pulled the trigger decisively!
The vase shattered with a sound, and Chu Xinghe gritted his teeth!
This kid is very arrogant!
Chu Xinghe gritted his teeth and turned his head: "Chen Changan, I came here today for no other reason than to ask you to use some tricks to release Chen Qingwan!"
"We have done a lot of work, but the governor of Baidi Prefecture still refuses to let her go. He said that Chen Qingwan's problem is not his fault, but yours!"
"If you say release her, Chen Qingwan will be able to come out naturally."
"Come out, what are you doing here? You're just a piece of shit."
"Chen Changan, speak to me properly!"
Chu Xinghe slammed the table and said, "Chen Qingwan is your sister no matter what. She is a member of our Chu family. How can you treat her like this?"
"What do I do to her? Chu Xinghe, I don't even have a mother, so how can I have a sister?"
Chen Changan shook his head and chuckled: "To be honest, I'd love to see the Chu family suffer!"
Chu Xinghe narrowed his eyes. He realized that he was no match for Chen Changan in bickering. "Chu Yanran told me that Chen Changan was a ruthless person. Now it seems to be true!"
"Chen Changan, don't think that you can rest easy just because you have the emperor's support. The imperial capital is not a place for you to run rampant!"
Chu Xinghe stood up, turned around and left.
Old Ma looked at his back, raised his eyebrows and said, "Master, I don't understand why you don't hand Chu Yuntian over to the Chu family?"
"The time is not right yet. I always feel that the Chu family still has a trump card."
Chen Changan smiled and said, "Just wait and see. When they play tricks on me, what other tricks do you think they will use?"
Lao Ma shrugged and said he didn’t know that.
……
Chu Xinghe returned to the Chu family angrily and told them everything about Chen Changan.
After not seeing each other for many days, Chu Yanran had returned to normal. When she heard Chu Xinghe's narration, she gritted her teeth and said, "This rebellious son is simply lawless! If I don't teach him a lesson, I won't be able to vent my anger!"
"Mom, I don't think you need to be angry."
Lin Yayun, the daughter-in-law of the Chu family, said seriously: "Now that Chen Changan has not dealt with us, we should adopt two strategies."
"What strategy?"
Chu Yanran's eyes softened and she asked with a smile.
After all, Lin Yayun is the daughter of a wealthy family. She is sensible and knows when to advance and retreat, and is able to please Chu Yanran.
"First, my mother came in person, brought valuable gifts, and reconciled with Chen Changan."
"After all, Chen Changan is favored by the emperor and has been doing very well recently. We might as well bow to him and wait and see what happens."
"Let me apologize to Hanzi? Impossible!" Chu Yanran refused without hesitation.
"That's right, sister-in-law, I don't know what you think!"
Chen Qiuyue gritted her teeth and said, "I am sure of one thing: the Huainan Palace and Chen Hanzi cannot coexist!"
"Then there is only the second way."
Lin Yayun shook her head helplessly and smiled: "Isn't my second sister the teacher of the Holy Son's Prison? Is she very capable?"
"Let her write an article about the difficulties of the Huainan Palace. The content of the article should be subtle, so that it seems to be throwing dirty water on Chen Changan, but it also seems not to be."
"Then spend a lot of money to advertise in newspapers so that people will know who Chen Changan is."
Chu Yanran nodded: "I have thought of this method before, but the newspaper charges are very expensive. I think this money... Humph, I can't let Hanzi earn it."
"After all, Chen Hanzi only has a small stake, the majority of which still belongs to the emperor."
Lin Yayun shook her head and said, "Compared to the loss of public support for the Huainan Palace, mother, I think we should consider my husband and spend this money."
Chu Yanran nodded blankly, pondering without saying anything.
"Another way is to let my uncle use some means to capture Chen Changan."
Seeing Chu Yanran's hesitation, Lin Yayun said, "He hurt my sixth sister so badly, even if my uncle wants to take revenge on him, this is reasonable, right?"
Not to mention Chen Qingwan, even with Chen Changan's attitude towards him, he cannot let him go!
Chu Xinghe stood up immediately: "Just do as Yayun said. Leave the use of force against Chen Changan to me. The key is the people's hearts!"
"Sister, let's split up!"
Chu Xinghe left, Chu Yanran took a deep breath and found Chen Bijun.
Recently, Chen Bijun and the fourth sister Chen Shuting have been very close. She often goes to Liulifang to see her eldest sister and listen to her stories.
Ever since Chen Hongluo moved out, she felt that the world had become a lot quieter.
Chen Bijun also wanted to move out, but... she didn't know how to tell Chu Yanran.
"Second brother, fourth brother, you are all here."
Chu Yanran walked to Chen Bijun's room, and the two women stood up one after another.
"Don't be so nervous. I came here this time to tell the second brother something."
Chu Yanran did not reveal that this was Lin Yayun's idea, she just said that she came up with it herself: "You all know that Sheng'er went to the military camp and worked very hard."
"Mother thinks that we, the Huainan Palace, cannot lose the support of the people. What do you think?"
"Mother is right. My ninth brother once said that water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it."
"I agree with what my second sister said."
"Don't mention that idiot!" Chu Yanran couldn't even hear Chen Hanzi's name now.
"If it weren't for him, would our Huainan Palace be in tatters? The governor of Baidi Prefecture sent me a message today that Lao Liu will be put on trial tomorrow!"
"Your uncle went to find him, but came back very angry!"
Chu Yanran was furious, and Chen Bijun and Chen Shuting had nothing to say.
Chu Yanran then said, "Second Brother, I want you to write an article about how good it is to have a son, how the Huainan Palace was struggling, but he was able to turn the tide!"
"Most importantly, the article contains innuendos that expose Chen Changan's sinister side!"
"You know what I mean!"
Chen Bijun was immediately shocked, and Chen Shuting was also horrified.
They could understand that their mother wanted to win the hearts of the people for her son, but...
Why do people say Chen Changan is insidious?
Chen Bijun bit her lip and took a deep breath: "Mom, can I ask you a question?"
"you say!"
"Chen Changan, is he really your biological son?"
