Chapter 281: If you have a husband like this, what else can you ask for?
"Yes." Ji Chuhe responded indifferently.
She was so direct that Xiao Yan'an choked and the words that were about to come out of his mouth were blocked.
After Ji Chuhe replied with this word, he stopped talking.
She understood why Xiao Yan'an asked this.
There were some things that she didn't want to explain in detail, and he just wanted him to understand and digest them.
After a while, Xiao Yan'an spoke again.
"The Third Prince, he..."
"The Queen agreed." Ji Chuhe responded indifferently.
Xiao Yanan was silent again.
The Queen was actually involved in this! Have they formed an alliance with the Queen?
"Am I particularly useless? So, for such a big thing, I don't even have the right to know."
"You, mother, grandfather, uncles, they all know, you all kept it from me, but I'm not an ignorant child, I... I also want to protect you and my family, I..." Xiao Yan'an didn't know what to say next.
A feeling of powerlessness enveloped him from top to bottom.
"Sir, it's not what you think. You are the only legitimate son of your father and mother, and the heir to the throne. In the future, I, your father, your mother, Aunt Dong, Aunt Xu, and the children, we will all rely on you. What we are facing now are all trivial matters, not worth mentioning."
Xiao Yan'an was comforted. As long as he heard Ji Chuhe say that she needed him and was willing to rely on him, he felt much better.
"Sir, regarding today's banquet, the Queen's grandfather and I will take care of the Luo family. Your important task will be behind."
"What important task?"
"I just said that after the birthday banquet incident is over, I will personally go to apologize to everyone who came to the banquet today. At that time, the prince will go with me. This is a reasonable and presentable opportunity to make friends."
"You are the prince of Huaiyang Palace, the crown prince, and your status is second only to the crown prince. So what? It's just glamorous on the surface. There are very few people in the imperial capital who are willing to make friends with us, and we can't even avoid them."
Xiao Yanan nodded in agreement.
They are in this situation now.
"I went out with my cousin and got to know some nobles. I could clearly feel that their attitude towards me was warm but distant."
"Yes, but I believe that success depends on human effort. We cannot rely on ourselves to gain a foothold, even with the Duke's Mansion. Nowadays, no one in the Duke's Mansion holds real power. Even if there are disciples willing to follow the Duke's Mansion, it is only a good reputation and will not play any role in major events."
"Once the Luo family falls, the uncles will naturally take the opportunity to seize power. As for us, the emperor will never let you get involved in political affairs. You are destined to be an idle crown prince in the imperial capital."
"The Duke's Mansion has its own path to follow, and we have our own path to follow. We must have our own circle of contacts in the imperial capital and bind our interests with them. Only in this way, when something happens, we will not be isolated and helpless."
After hearing Ji Chuhe's words, Xiao Yan'an felt even more powerless.
He had thought about all that she said, but he was at a loss, without any clue. Her thoughts were so clear, and she had already made a careful plan.
"Madam, I always thought that I could be your support and hold up this family, but I was too naive. I'm not as smart as you. Maybe, I won't be able to live the way I fantasize in this life." Xiao Yan'an was in a very low mood.
At this moment, my emotions are so complicated that they are hard to describe.
"I understand your feelings, my Lord. There seems to be an unwritten rule in this world that women are born to rely on men to survive. Men inherit the family business and are responsible for the prosperity and decline of a family. The most a woman can do is manage the affairs of the inner house. I am afraid that there are not many women like me who are involved in so many things."
"Ma'am, please don't misunderstand me. I don't mean to blame you. I just feel that I am useless. If I could be as independent as you, you would just need to stand behind me!" Xiao Yan'an explained quickly.
Fearing that what he said was not clear enough, he added, "The current situation is that Madam is standing in front of me, and I am standing behind Madam. I feel powerless and frustrated. Madam, can you understand my feeling?"
"I understand." Ji Chuhe smiled lightly, "Prince, why are you standing behind me? We are standing together, you are beside me, and we are walking side by side."
Xiao Yan'an looked at Ji Chuhe in surprise, and then said in a swearing tone: "Madam, don't worry, I will never let you down!"
"Will the prince dislike me for being too strong?" Ji Chuhe asked softly.
"No! Absolutely not! I would feel inferior because I can't compare to you. But, I am more happy because you are my wife! My wife is so smart, in my heart she is unique in the world! No woman can be compared with my wife! I even admire you a little." Xiao Yan'an blushed when he said this.
Ji Chuhe couldn't help laughing after hearing what he said.
If it was Shen Chengjing, these words would have rotted in her stomach.
Even if she had a plan, she couldn't point it out directly, and had to be careful to hint to Shen Chengjing indirectly.
Sometimes Shen Chengjing might not listen to her, he has his own ideas!
In the end, even if he had to follow her advice, he would find all kinds of excuses to excuse himself.
After the success, he confidently praised his wise decision.
In short, all the achievements are due to him.
Xiao Yan'an and Shen Chengjing are two completely opposite people.
He never takes credit for himself, but rather recognizes and respects others.
He would not restrict her, but would stand by her side and unconditionally cooperate with all her plans.
If you have a husband like this, what else can you ask for?
"My Lord, there are so many intrigues and deceptions in this world. What I like most is your sincerity. Your sincerity is the most precious. Whether we make friends or use each other in the future, sincerity is always the most touching thing. With you by my side, my plans will go smoothly."
Xiao Yan'an suddenly became more confident. He straightened his chest involuntarily, with a look of pride on his face that he couldn't hide.
……
royal palace.
All the doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau came to the palace to treat the third prince.
When the emperor received the news, he rushed from the imperial study to the third prince's bedroom.
The queen had lost her usual dignified demeanor and paced around the room anxiously.
"The Emperor has arrived!"
The queen suddenly stopped, turned to look at the emperor, lifted her skirt and knelt down.
"Queen!" The emperor immediately stepped forward and helped the queen up.
But the queen knelt on the ground and refused to get up.
"Your Majesty, I beg you to hand over the matter of the Third Prince's poisoning to me for investigation. No one except Your Majesty can interfere! No matter who is found to be the murderer behind the scenes, Your Majesty will never tolerate it!"
"Queen, I know you are sad, and so am I."
"Your Majesty!" The Queen called out loudly, tears welling up uncontrollably, with a look of forbearance and grievance, "When the Third Prince was six years old, I almost lost him once! Apart from the Third Prince, I have nothing else."
"You still have me!"
"I dare not. Your Majesty is the emperor of all the people in the world!"
