After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure

625 Knew how to deal with them

Liang Yulin sympathized with Secondary Consort Hua’s situation. She had been unlucky to have met someone as unreasonable and powerful as Liang Yujun.

“After Secondary Consort Hua was brought back to the royal residence, Liang Yujun doted on her very much.

“Not only did she become a secondary consort, but she also has a lot of power in the rear backyard.

“At first, Secondary Consort Hua was not willing and had been resisting.”

!!

However, it also caused Ruan Songling to be unhappy, so she sent people to kill Secondary Consort Hua’s brother and sister.

“When Secondary Consort Hua found out, it was already too late.

“So she put away her plans to retaliate and became Prince Jin’s good consort. All these years, she never showed a trace of hatred towards Prince Jin and Ruan Songling.

“Even I thought that she had accepted her fate.

“I didn’t expect that she had been waiting for an opportunity to take revenge.”

If it wasn’t for Prince Yi’s disgraceful brother, Secondary Consort Hua and her fiancé would have been living a good life after they got married.

Shi Qingluo sighed again. “Prince Jin is really a troublemaker.

“He deserves this.”

After Prince Jin lies in bed for a while, he might feel regretful. He might as well die first.

Or after being close to death once, he might not be willing to die again. Only when he was living in pain and powerlessness, then it would be Secondary Consort Hua’s greatest revenge.

“Your Highness, what are you going to do about Prince Jin’s residence?” she asked curiously.

Liang Yulin didn’t hide anything.

“When Liang Yujun wakes up and the poison’s effect has subsided, I’ll send someone to send him back to his manor.

“Liang Mingyu will definitely be angered. Not only will he no longer be the crown prince, but he will also be expelled from Prince Jin’s manor, and his name will be crossed off the family tree.

“No matter who Liang Yujun chooses as his successor, he won’t be chosen.”

He curled his lips and continued, “I’m the exact opposite. I think it’s good for Liang Mingyu to not be the crown prince of Prince Jin’s residence.

“When the time comes, I’ll support Liang Mingyu to rise to the top and fight with his illegitimate brothers.

“Then, we’ll take the initiative to request the imperial court to withdraw the vassals and return the fief to the imperial court.

“Reclaiming back the fief can reduce a lot of unnecessary deaths.

“Rather than letting the soldiers raised by Prince Jin attack our Daliang soldiers, it would be better to send them to deal with the Ge Kingdom.

“As long as Liang Mingyu is sincere in submitting to the imperial court, I will persuade my royal brother to spare his life and let him inherit Prince Jin’s manor.

“However, he will definitely be demoted. When Liang Mingyu succeeds his father, he can only be a secondary prince. His son will continue to be demoted.

“This will also fulfill our promise to Secondary Consort Hua, and we’ll even exceed it. Not only will we keep his son alive, but we’ll also let his son continue to enjoy glory, wealth, and status and have children and grandchildren.

“However, he could only be a rich man, and he would not have any real power.”

He then changed the topic. “Of course, this will depend on whether Liang Mingyu knows what’s good for him.

“If he can’t see his situation clearly and insists on following Prince Jin’s old path, then I can only watch coldly as he is driven out of Prince Jin’s residence.

“When the time comes, I’ll have someone send him to the South and find a small place for him to live there.”

After Shi Qingluo finished listening, she looked at Prince Yi with a half-smile. “When the time comes, Prince Jin will probably be very angry.”

The more he didn’t want someone to be the heir, the more his dear brother wanted to support that person.

He had even returned the northern border that he had built to the emperor. This would cause Prince Jin to be deeply angered.

Liang Yulin looked at Shi Qingluo with approval. “Luoluo is so smart. The more Prince Jin is upset, the happier I am.”

Back then, Prince Jin and his mother had made him and his mother feel uncomfortable and aggrieved. Now he was going to return the favor.

Xiao Hanzheng looked at Prince Yi.

“Your Highness’s previous candidate should be Liang Mingwen, right? ”

Liang Yulin’s smile deepened. “Nothing can escape Zheng’er’s eyes.

“Originally, I wanted to make Liang Mingwen my puppet, but I didn’t expect Secondary Consort Hua to be so helpful and help us so much.

“So I decided to change the candidate at the last minute so that her son could have a good ending.”

He then narrowed his eyes. “And with Secondary Consort Hua’s intelligence, I’m guessing that Liang Mingyu still has the amulet she gave him.

“That’s why he’s the best choice.”

Previously, he had planned to get rid of the puppet.

However, that plan was only possible if Prince Jin died.

However, the change in power would definitely cause a lot of deaths or a lot of turmoil.

And when he took action, it would be completely different from when Secondary Consort Hua took action.

If he were to take action, it would be a confrontation of power with Prince Jin. If Prince Jin were to die because of his actions, he would attract a lot of hatred, and the northern border would be in turmoil.

On the other hand, Secondary Consort Hua’s action was entirely for revenge. Prince Jin did not die, so the hatred would not be against him. He could then make use of it to execute his plans well.

Then, with Liang Mingyu’s help, he would get rid of all of Prince Jin’s loyal followers.

To be able to return the northern border to the imperial court without the two armies fighting was the best ending for both the imperial court and the people.

Most importantly, Prince Jin would definitely hate Secondary Consort Hua to the core, so it was impossible for him to have any father-son feelings for Liang Mingyu. He would only vent his anger and hatred.

Liang Mingyu would definitely have a knot in his heart regarding his mother’s death.

Both father and son had thorns in their hearts. It was impossible for them to be on the same side, so Liang Mingyu had become their best choice now.

...

Xiao Hanzheng agreed. “That’s a good idea.

“We’ll have to see if Liang Mingyu is a smart person.”

If he was smart and tactful, he would know that relying on the imperial court and being a rich man with no real power was the best choice.

If he didn’t know what was good for him, he could only hide his name for the rest of his life.

Liang Mingyu should be glad that he had a good mother.

Shi Qingluo realized that these things were not suitable for her. There were too many twists and turns, and only Prince Yi and her husband could deal with them.

Xiao Hanzheng asked Prince Yi, “What about the princess and the North Prince?” Send them back to the capital?”

Liang Yulin nodded helplessly. “I can only send them back to the capital. I’ll have to make another trip there.”

He didn’t like to go back to the capital at all.

However, Xiao Hanzheng was the magistrate of Northern City and had a lot of things to do recently. He would be uncomfortable if someone else were to send him off, so he could only go alone.

“I’ll set off after I’ve settled the matters at Prince Jin’s residence.”

...

It was more appropriate for him to carry out the plan he had just mentioned.

Xiao Hanzheng obviously had the same idea as Prince Yi. “Well, I really have to rely on you, Your Highness.”

He thought for a while and said, “However, we can’t relax our guard against the Ge Kingdom. We should even strengthen our defense. I’m afraid that they will use the North Prince as an excuse to suddenly send troops to attack Daliang.”

Although the royal family of the Ge Kingdom placed the North Prince in an important position, they were obviously more afraid of him.

Now that the North Prince had been captured, the emperor of the Ge Kingdom most likely did not want the North Prince to return alive.

Therefore, it was very likely that they would take the initiative to attack Daliang. On the surface, it was to force Daliang to release the North Prince. In fact, they wanted to force the North Prince into a dead end.

After all, Daliang had a strong army now. If the Ge Kingdom released the North Prince as soon as they sent out their troops and threatened to release him, would Daliang be embarrassed?

Liang Yulin hadn’t thought of this, but after hearing Xiao Hanzheng’s words, he thought of the same thing.

He reached out and patted Xiao Hanzheng’s shoulder. “You and your wife are really the lucky stars of my royal brother and Daliang.”

If it weren’t for Xiao Hanzheng and his wife’s plan, he wouldn’t have been able to be the hunter today. Not only did he get the treasure, but he also had so many other unexpected gains.
