“Forget about it. After Shengrui comes back, I will ask him if he has some suitable shop facades at hands. After you go back, you should also ask about it for me. If there is any, buy it for me, whatever the price is. If not, we’ll talk about it after I go to the capital. Lose no time about the Hanling School thing. Since those people are all afraid that His Majesty would confer Seven as the crown prince, and let’s make it real, in case they keep jumping up and down and think they still have a chance.”

Since the other side took him a friend, he shouldn’t rip him off. He dare not touch the dowry shop of the Big Princess. The worst scenario was he opened it outside the city. Good wine needs no bush. As long as his thing was good enough, he was not worried he’d get no business there.

“You are just saying it. I also want Seven to be crowned soon, but my big cousin always held an ambiguous attitude. And it was inappropriate for Yunhan to ask for it from him. Although Seven was no longer so submissive like before and even tried to expose his edge when needed and his big cousin had greatly changed his attitude towards him, after all, Noble Consort Xiao’s big son occupied the name as the big imperial son. And his age was also more appropriate, and under the full support of Xiao family, he could be rendered as some good materials, so his big cousin was prone to confer him as the crown prince.

Speaking of this, Zeng Shaoqing looked rarely serious. The title of the crown prince had always been the target those princes fought for. Generally, in order to avoid brothers trying to kill each other, some emperors would name the crown prince very early, but usually, that crown prince would die a tragic death. That year, if it hadn’t been the protection of the evil old woman, his big cousin would have died countless times. Plus, Shengrui had no heart for the title, so his big cousin could have ascended the throne so smoothly, otherwise, it was really hard to say whom the kingdom belonged to now.

“So I want you to speed up the construction of the branches of Hanling School. It was the empress who proposed this idea, so all credit is his. A few years later, after all the students from Hanling School take the imperial examinations, one could say they are all the empress’ students. By then, do you still think any big family like Xiao family or Chu family is still a threat to us?”

Although the free basic tuition was really a great pressure for them, opening one more branch meant they’d lose more money, those things were superficial. In the future, what they harvested may not be money, but something hundreds of more expensive than money. One should know, in this ear, there were so many students from poor families.

“What on earth do you have in your head to think of that?”

Zeng Shaoqing couldn’t help giving him his thumbs-up. Perhaps the fruit for opening schools were slow to bear, but it was long and stable. Why had they never thought so much before? Ling Jingxuan was so smart!

“Of course something different from you.”

With a trace of evil light floating from under his eyes, Ling Jingxuan said with a joking tone. Zeng Shaoqing pretended not to throw him a hard stare, “Yeah, only you are smart, while we are all fools, all right? I wonder if the so smart crown princess has any method to resolve the crisis for Yunhan and Seven to let them live some peaceful days? Or, you got a method to let that one in the palace to confer him as the crown prince?”

If he really had a way, he’d be one of the fools in his mouth. It was not big deal to be a fool before him.

“That’s simple. Use the centesimate trick. Get rid of some who oppose most dramatically, then others will naturally have no balls to be so unbridled. As for the crown prince title, I still need to talk to Shengrui first. We’ll talk about it in the long run after we go to the capital. By the way, what’s that emperor’s attitude toward Yunhan and his son now? Yunhan has been out of the palace for three years but he didn’t punish him or even blame him, which is really out of my expectations. And not long after, he resumed Yunhan’s title. What on earth is he thinking? Is it possible he still has feelings for Yunhan?”

Ling Jingxuan still couldn’t figure it out. According to what Yunhan described, he should be an as*hole, but the fact was on the contrary. If he was unable to have a right understanding of his personality and attitude, he really didn’t know how to make the future plans.

“Feelings? He’s the emperor, and he can favor anyone as long as he wants. So many concubines in the harem waiting for him to favor.”

Hearing him, Zeng Shaoqing twitched his mouth sullenly. During the past few months, it was true that his big cousin had really favored him, but it didn’t mean he’d only favor himself. One could only say he had spent most of his time in Yunhan’s palace and favored him most. If not so, how had Noble Consort Xiao and those cat and dog concubines had the balls to try to assassinate Yunhan and Seven? The emperor’s favor had never been long.

“The medicine you asked for last time didn’t work?”

He was clear about it. As long as the emperor took a little, his little brother could never ‘stand up’, how could he still can favor other concubines?

“No, the imperial said his condition wouldn’t allow him to that kind of bed thing. Jingxuan, you don’t understand. An emperor’s favor wouldn’t only mean sleep together. Even if he goes to other concubine’s palace to eat a meal, it also means great honor already. Now, every day, it is all Yunhan who is staying by his side serving him, and Seven also often follows by Yunhan’s side, of course only during the day. After dinner at night, except the first day and fifteenth day of each other, he has to go stay up at the empress’ place, basically he’d go to Noble Consort Xiao or other’s palace to sleep, he seldom sleeps in his own place alone.”

So-called balancing the harem was like this. Even if he couldn’t sleep with then, he still had to show some face to those big families behind those concubines. In others’ eyes, Yunhan was undoubtedly the most favored one. Maybe to other concubines, Yunhan was lucky and worth their jealousy. But to him, it was really unfair to Yunhan. He didn’t expect him to grab all the power of the harem in his hands. As long as he could favor Yunhan only, he could let go and let them live together happily, but…
