The Divine Doctor And A Common Farmer-Chapter 1551 - 1637: A Capable Man

The Eighth Princess, compared to a bald chicken, was at this moment holding a cup of tea, listening to her subordinates’ reports.

"Your Highness, the winds are rising in the Capital, if you do not return to stabilize it soon, I fear..." After urgently reporting from the Capital, the subordinate couldn’t help but show a worried expression. What could be done? The Ninth Princess had unexpectedly recovered! And now, the whole palace was completely under the control of the previously erratic Ninth Princess! The situation was rather unclear, yet the Eighth Princess seemed not the least bit anxious.

The Eighth Princess thought to herself, "If she wants to fight, let her fight. If I could win against her once, I can win a second and third time. The power she currently holds is merely superficial, the truly decisive forces, such as Elder Yun Zhe, Yun Shuihan, and the Ancient Tribe, Lian family... With their support, even if she gets to revel for a moment, it won’t last a lifetime, eventually she won’t stir up any big waves."

The Eighth Princess displayed a look of indifference, clearly unbothered by the Ninth Princess’s recovery and assumption of power. "However... she’s been mad for years, has anyone found out who dispelled her curse?"

The subordinate shook his head, "I don’t know..."

The Eighth Princess looked displeased, "I don’t want to hear ’I don’t know!’ Even if you don’t know, you have to investigate it for me!!" Her sharp rebuke made the subordinate shiver.

Finally, after the subordinate left, the Eighth Princess let out a long sigh.

"Fool!" Her eyes were full of sarcasm, yet it was unclear who she was mocking.

But in the eyes of the Eighth Princess, the urgent matter was to first find the whereabouts of the Empress, and secondly, to seize the Imperial Jade Seal.

As long as she had this Imperial Jade Seal, she could persuade the neutral ancient tribes to support her ascension to the throne.

Her eyes deepened.

"This empire, is ultimately my empire!!"

Shujun had someone prepare a carriage. The interior of this carriage was extremely spacious, and after the couple boarded the carriage, they instructed the coachman to head to the Zhu Mansion.

Along the way, Dong Huiying lifted the curtain and saw that on either side of the street stood some shops belonging to Huizi Company. The area in front of these shops was already a mess; people were cursing, smashing things, openly opposing Huizi Store.

Dong Huiying looked at the troublemakers, almost all dressed in black with red belts. The frightening people of the Zhu Mansion liked this kind of dress-up; it was easy to recognize them from the unique clothing style, revealing these people’s origin.

Those were people from the Zhu family!

Smashing the shops under Huizi Store’s banner was also at the behest of the Zhu family! And the Zhu family dared to be so unscrupulous because they had the support of noble descendants, backed by the Eighth Princess, otherwise how could they dare to act so arrogantly?

"Shujun."

Dong Huiying held Shujun’s hand and motioned him to look outside the carriage, "In my heart, you are quite a capable man, almost great. Look, your Huizi Store has discarded old notions, you hired men of ambition who had no place to show their talents and provided them with a platform to express themselves. The appearance of Huizi Store has also solved the food problems of many people."

"This is what you love to do, and it’s something I admire. So don’t give up this hard work because of some issues. From nothing to having such a large business, even if you never complained, I can imagine it was not easy for you."
