Logging into the Game World Early and Starting with a Royal Marriage to the Empress

Chapter 41 - The Lonely Third Prince



Zhengde Street!

Along the street, vendors and some passersby are all gathered in the middle of the street on the two carriages.

A brilliant atmosphere, a simple and introverted carriage travelling down Zhengde Street, the crowd is well versed and knows that this is definitely the vehicle of two big shots.

The one on the left is the exclusive vehicle of the Third Prince!

At a restaurant building on the side of the road, someone recognised the Third Prince’s vehicle.

‘Who could make the Third Prince take the initiative to stop the vehicle on the street to talk to him?’

Someone asked in confusion.

‘If I’m not mistaken, that would be the Li family’s vehicle!

‘Li family?

”It’s General Li who made a big splash in the recent Military Defence Map case, I hear he’s about to be promoted and become an important official in the court!

Someone said with a grave expression on his face, and someone else showed a glowing expression on his face and made someone pass the news back.

The whole of Zhende Street was suddenly a bit of a dark current.

And at that time, the eyes of the crowd gathered.

Li Wenzhong’s face was heavy, he knew he had been put on the spot, no matter what the outcome, His Majesty and the Crown Prince would probably be a little suspicious of him, not at ease.

He hadn’t even taken office yet, and this was an unfavourable start!

Your Highness, Brother-in-Law, I also have things at home, but I cannot have a concubine at home to give birth to, let alone go to matchmaking concubines, I am loyal to your sister, that is, on this point, Your Highness can rest assured that there will be another day for us to have the opportunity to meet again!

Xia Chen’s mouth was not serious, he smiled and clenched his fists, then lowered the curtains.

The carriage slowly moved off, leaving the Third Prince’s carriage in the middle of Zhengde Street.

……

This Li Wenzhong and Xia Chen are so unrestrained, they have no respect for His Highness at all!

At the innermost part of the spacious carriage, a woman with a pretty face huffed.

One of them is His Majesty’s man, one of them is the legitimate son of the Xia family, and in terms of status, they are still my brothers-in-law, and I’m not the Crown Prince, so how could they put me in their eyes?

In the carriage, the third prince’s face was expressionless, no joy or anger to be seen.

‘But they are also too unreasonable, full of nonsense, especially that Xia Chen also dared to take advantage of His Highness!

The yellow-robed maid said indignantly, she was someone close to the Third Prince, not an ordinary maid.

I know they won’t respond to my invitation, I deliberately came here today, but I just want to disgust them, Li Wenzhong is not destined to defect to me, so I will disgust my Crown Prince brother and father.

And that Xia Chen, I do want to draw him in, before I have been listening to the rumours in the capital, did not put him on the heart, but last time in the White Moon Tower saw him out, really is a tough general, now even my father wants to reuse him, is a bit interesting.

Although he is three years younger than me, call him brother-in-law is indeed some shame, but there is this relationship in, to really good to get closer.

He comes from the Marquis of Zhen Dong, if you can get the support of the Marquis of Zhen Dong because of him, then the military power is in hand, whether it is the identity of the prince, will not be so important’.

The Third Prince lay in the yellow-robed maid’s arms, smiling and gushing, while the yellow-robed maid listened quietly.

While she put her arm around the Third Prince’s head, there were times when she just pretended to be ignorant, not really ignorant, she seemed brainless, but being able to gain the Third Prince’s trust was never just based on her beauty.

She knows that the Third Prince is lonely and sometimes needs someone to talk to and chat with to relieve his boredom.

At that time, the Third Prince opened the box of words as if he had opened his heart completely.

This father of mine was obsessed with the art of longevity in his early years, and cultivated Taoism and Buddhism, and ascended the throne for more than 50 years, and only gave birth to my elder brother more than 20 years ago, and only after that did he have my second sister and me, and so on.

Although he is obsessed with the art of immortality, he cannot let go of the power, so he only uses me as a pawn to check and balance the prince.

I know he never wanted to give me this position, no matter how good I am, he won’t, I’m just a tool in his hands!

The third prince closed his eyes, his tone was soft, bland, as if he was not talking about himself, so that people could not see the sadness in his eyes.

The woman in yellow looked at the handsome face of the third prince in her arms, gently stroking her forehead, her eyes a little heartbroken.

If he wants to use me as a tool, then I will, and if he wants to make me the crown prince’s grindstone, then I will grind it for him.

Hahaha, he thinks he can control everything, he thinks he is a god in the human world.

Ridiculous!

Does he really think he is a god?

To be able to control everything, I want to see if he really is a god and a Buddha in the human world!

The third prince’s tone became more and more indifferent, revealing an infinite coldness!

……

This Third Prince is really well informed, when we left the palace gates on the front foot, he chased after us on the back foot!

Xia Chen played with a dagger in his hand and said with great interest.

He seems to be coming towards me, but in reality, the target is you!

Li Wenzhong looked at Xia Chen.

‘It’s just because he is interested in the Marquis of Zhen Dong behind me, but unfortunately, he got his plan wrong, I am just an unpopular legitimate son in the Marquis’ house!

Xia Chen said carelessly, not knowing whether this was meant for the Third Prince or Li Wenzhong.

It’s true that the Marquis of Andong doesn’t value you, but that uncle of yours, Xia Qian, isn’t treating you badly, is he, he’s the current head of the Xia family!

Li Wenzhong did not raise his head, and his voice drifted into Xia Chen’s ears.

Xia Chen smiled and didn’t say anything more about the topic.

Li Wenzhong sent Xia Chen to Wendao Street, the Marquis of Zhen Dong Mansion was located in the centre of this street.

‘I will be reporting to the Lamplighters tomorrow, so what about my duties on the Imperial Guard side?’

‘His Majesty didn’t specify anything, so he thought that he would let you take on the duties of the Imperial Guard first!

Li Wenzhong thought for a while before speaking.

Xia Chen nodded and jumped off the carriage in a dashing manner, then waved his hand before turning around and walking into the Marquis’ residence.

When Xia Chen entered the marquis’ mansion, he did not return to his own courtyard, but went straight to his eldest uncle Xia Qian’s courtyard.

Wen Di had transferred him into the Lamplighters, on the surface, he was saying that he would let him investigate the case and find the mole, but Xia Chen always felt that there was another deep meaning.

After all, even though he had a rift with the Xia family and his father, after all, he had Xia family blood flowing through his body, and now the Xia family was already in the spotlight and in control of military power.

Is the Xia family not afraid of the infiltration of the Lamplighters organisation, the control of Dawu’s intelligence spying organisation?

Xia Chen explained all the circumstances to Xia Qian one by one.

I know about this matter, you go back first, if there is a situation, I will ask someone to send you a message!

Xia Qian’s face was dark, even he could not understand it for a moment.

Xia Chen nodded and returned to his courtyard.

Night fell, like a dark beast devouring the entire capital.

The night life of the dignitaries had truly begun!

A street of green houses!

Powerful rich children and even many officials gathered here.

A piece of news was circulating in all the small groups.

Have you heard? Today His Majesty personally received the legitimate son of the Marquis of Zhen Dong, Xia Chen!’

‘How is that possible? Even the ministers of the Six Ministries are rarely summoned by His Majesty.

‘It’s true! Do you know what His Majesty said when he summoned Xia Chen?

Brother Li, don’t keep me waiting, I’m in a hurry!

His Majesty said, “If Xia Chen grows up to be a scholar and joins the Hanlin Academy, he’ll surely become the Chief Minister in 30 years!

Brother Li, how come I heard that he’ll become the Chief Minister in 20 years?

Nonsense, what His Majesty clearly said was that this son has the talent to travel the world, and he intends to have Xia Chen replace the current Prime Minister Lin Hanpu in ten years and become a pillar of the Dawu nation!

……

All the social places like restaurants were talking about the fact that Xia Chen had been summoned to the palace by His Majesty today, with different versions flying around.

In the end, it was even said that Xia Chen has the talent of heaven and earth, although he has the body of a young man, his talent and wisdom have surpassed the current Prime Minister Lin Hanpu!
