Chapter 241 The crystal had already been stolen.
The things that the crown prince and the emperor have to consider are so vastly different.
No wonder the Emperor was wary of the Long family. Anyone who sat in that position would feel like they had a thorn in their side. That kind of pressure is something that ordinary people cannot withstand.
Moreover, he hasn't even officially ascended to the throne yet.
Those once trusted ministers have suddenly changed their tune.
Things that I would never have discussed with him before, I now want to bring right to his face.
They couldn't stop talking about the Long family, saying things like how their achievements overshadowed the emperor, how they were arrogant and domineering, and how they disrespected the emperor's authority. They said that if they weren't eliminated soon, they would become a great threat!
Ironically, those were all good officials who were conscientious and diligent in their respective positions.
If someone with a bad temper listens to this every day, it's no wonder they get assimilated.
Emperor Tianhuang believed himself to be resolute and that he would do better than his father, and that the Long family should not be touched.
His friends all said he was an upright and honest prince, a selfless brother, and in their hearts, he was so perfect that they could not find a single flaw.
But they forgot one thing.
If the water is clear, there will be no fish!
Living in an imperial family, how can one expect perfection?
If Long Yuan had chosen to rebel, he would have backed down, because he knew that even if a real war broke out, it would be difficult to win.
Even if we win, it will be a Pyrrhic victory.
It will also give other countries an opportunity to exploit loopholes.
It would be better to gracefully back down. If Longyuan were to rise to power under these circumstances, would his reputation remain as good as it is now?
Even without friends, Luo Luo would leave him, and everyone would follow him, Di Tianhuang, away. With Mu Yunfei and the others protecting him, the Long family wouldn't be able to harm the Di family in the slightest.
If Longyuan were to displease him one day, it wouldn't be impossible for him to be driven to the brink of despair and then rise from the ashes.
Of course, if Long Yuan's political achievements were better than his, Emperor Tianhuang would be convinced.
After all his calculations, the impact of Luo Luo's move completely exceeded his expectations. How could he have chosen to give up so quickly? This was completely out of character for Long Yuan.
Of the five, only Fu Tingyu and Mu Yunfei would be willing to give up everything for a beauty.
Shaking his head, he thought, "So be it. Since Longyuan has chosen to give up, then he should never again entertain such thoughts."
He is not the emperor, and he will never waste time suppressing the Long family.
Outstanding achievements naturally win the hearts and minds of the people.
With more support for the Mu family, why worry about the Long family being left unchecked?
There's no need for any clandestine maneuvering. Given Long Yuan's competitive nature, even if he knew the purpose of supporting the Mu family, he wouldn't harbor any resentment. Instead, it would ignite his fighting spirit and drive him to compete with Mu Yunfei.
It's time for the Mu family army to make its move!
"Where did Father go?"
*
Where is Father? Father is strolling through the market with Cui Meixin.
"I still have some things on me that can be exchanged for money. How about we go to a big shopping mall?" The old emperor couldn't stand such crowded places.
If someone were to stab him, no one would know who the murderer is.
How could Cui Meixin possibly guess the other person's identity? She simply assumed he was a pitiful person with nowhere else to turn. Although she was now wealthy and had plenty of free time, she still understood the principle of not flaunting her wealth.
Brother Huang, oh, this fellow says his surname is Huang and his given name is Long, Huang Long.
Huang Laoge rarely stayed at home recently, leaving early and returning late every day just like her. But these past two days, he's suddenly stopped going out and is always staying in his bedroom playing computer games by himself.
He's showing a tendency to become a stay-at-home guy who doesn't do anything productive.
He also paid the rent and food expenses. Where did the money come from? He sold belts for tens of thousands and watches for hundreds of thousands. In short, he sold some good items.
Cui Meixin felt that he couldn't go on like this. The mountain would eventually run out of food, and he had no children willing to support him. What would he do when he got old?
Seeing that he was very talkative and seemed to be able to chat with her about anything, she didn't mind testing him out and then hiring him as her housekeeper.
Having bought so many houses, and with more to come, collecting rent will be a hassle. So, let this very talkative Mr. Huang work for her.
Consider it an act of charity!
However, it's best not to reveal her financial situation during the assessment period. In case this person has ulterior motives and tries to exploit those men who have no family fortune, she's afraid she really can't handle it.
This guy has a rather masculine physique.
She's just a bit ugly; she doesn't like beards, they make her look like a butcher.
If he doesn't look bad after shaving his beard, and if he's determined to seduce her, she might actually fall for his tricks.
There's no way around it, she has a great figure, a beautiful face, high moral character, and she's also a good conversationalist.
She had never met anyone more knowledgeable than this person. He could speak eloquently about national affairs, and he could also chat with her enthusiastically about trivial family matters.
As friends, they couldn't be more perfect.
If you want to discern a person's character, take them on a long, budget-friendly trip. You'll definitely be able to tell whether they're a good person or a bad one.
“We’re going on a budget trip. If we dress too nicely, we’ll attract thieves. Trust me, I guarantee we’ll come back safely.” Cui Meixin pulled the man’s sleeve and led him into a men’s clothing store.
The old emperor couldn't dissuade her, and he was eager to try the travel stories she told him. He had tried to travel incognito before, but none of them had ever actually gone out on such a trip.
No matter where you go, someone always clears the way for you; it's not very interesting.
He rarely gets to be free and wants to go out and travel like an ordinary person. Anyway, even if something happens to him, the crown prince is capable of taking over the throne.
I've lived more than half my life. If I don't go out and travel now, even if I want to later, I'm afraid I won't be able to.
Traveling alone can be lonely, so having someone who can adapt to any environment as a companion is a good idea.
I can't wait to see what the next part of the trip will be like!
It wasn't until he actually experienced it that he realized the most painful thing in his life wasn't being watched closely by the Long family, but going on a budget trip.
Mu Zhen didn't see Di Tianhuang in the first two classes, but he had already found out that the guy would come in the third class.
"Host, why don't you find a place to hide your watch? The pink rabbit just secretly peeked at your wrist." The little giant pit hovered above Mu Zhen's head, staring intently at the rows of long-eared rabbits in front of him.
Mu Zhen subconsciously pulled her sleeve down to cover her watch.
How could I have forgotten about this? The watch is useless to me, but I don't want to do the female lead's thing either!
When he first arrived, he never thought of antagonizing the female lead, but now he finds her irritating no matter what he does.
Huangfu Zique glanced behind him. Ha, it seems this guy hasn't realized that the crystal in the watch was secretly pried off while they were in the hospital.
The watch contains only three small black crystals, and the laboratory did indeed detect a different and special component in one of the crystals.
They are now searching the world for minerals with the same composition, but they haven't found a single clue, as if it were the only one of its kind in the world.
After class, Mu Zhen went to the restroom and, as always, stood in front of the sign, looking left and right.
With a sigh, he lowered his head and quickly walked into the women's restroom.
Without glancing around, I went straight into a small cubicle.
"Yao Yao, has your family received an invitation to the Long family's wedding banquet? I heard that the Xijiang tribe will also be attending this time."
"Got it, wanna go together? The Western Zombie Clan is so mysterious, do you think they might actually bring a zombie with them?"
