The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

The moment the Ninth Prince stopped Shen Qinglan, Huo Zhanting had already stood diagonally in front of Shen Qinglan. As long as the Ninth Prince dared to take action, he would show no mercy.

Shen Qinglan glanced at Huo Zhanting who was silently protecting her, smiled, and then set her eyes on the Ninth Prince again, smiling and asking innocently:

"What does the Ninth Prince mean? Wasn't this the job that the Ninth Prince wanted? Now that he has gotten what he wanted, why does he seem unhappy again?"

The Ninth Prince really didn't know. It was obvious that when they first targeted the Crown Prince, everything was going very smoothly.

In the eyes of the Ninth Prince and Prime Minister Jiang, whether they got the task or the task still belonged to the Crown Prince, they had ways to deal with it.

If this mission was still the prince's, they would naturally find a way to stir up the situation.

If this task fell on the Ninth Prince, he could also take the opportunity to produce the explosives, shock the four countries and make a name for himself.

But unexpectedly, both results were disrupted by Shen Qinglan!

Now that both parties are working together, no matter what schemes they want to come up with, they have to consider whether they will implicate themselves as well!

In this way, the opportunities to drag the prince into trouble will be much less!

The Ninth Prince said nothing, but the look in his eyes when he looked at Shen Qinglan was like that of a poisonous snake, without any concealment at all.

Seeing this, Huo Zhanting's eyes flashed with coldness, and he said coldly:

"If you don't want the Ninth Prince's eyes, just pluck them."

The fierce look in Huo Zhanting's eyes made the Ninth Prince subconsciously take a half step back.

This Huo Zhanting is not like their civil officials who like to talk nonsense. If you really make him angry, no one can guarantee whether Huo Zhanting will really take action.

However, the Ninth Prince was still a prince after all. He took a half step back and felt a little embarrassed. He immediately said in a cold voice:

"Zhan Wang is a great war god, but he can't even take care of his own wife. He is really a loss of man's dignity."

He was a god of war, but his wife became the Duke of Zhenguo. The Ninth Prince didn't believe that any man could tolerate his wife having the same status as him.

Huo Zhanting looked at the Ninth Prince with disdain and said sarcastically:

"It is ridiculous for the Ninth Prince to say this. A man's dignity is never redeemed through his wife. I am only proud of my wife's ability."

What Huo Zhanting said is absolutely true.

The more intelligent and resourceful Shen Qinglan was, the higher her position was, and the more respected she was, the happier and prouder her husband would be.

Thinking of this, Huo Zhanting looked at the Ninth Prince with some disdain and said sarcastically:

"I guess the Ninth Prince is just saying the grapes are sour because he can't eat them?"

Shen Qinglan listened to Huo Zhanting's words with a smile on her face.

The Ninth Prince wanted to sow discord? Unfortunately, Huo Zhanting insisted on being sincere, so the Ninth Prince's plan might have failed.

Prime Minister Jiang saw that the Ninth Prince's face was getting worse and worse, and a trace of dissatisfaction flashed across his eyes, but he still suppressed it, and just glanced at Shen Qinglan and said:

"A blessing in disguise. Princess Zhan is more skilled this time. Please give me your advice next time."

This was a declaration of war, but Shen Qinglan was naturally not afraid and just smiled and said:

"I don't deserve your advice, but Prime Minister Jiang is old, and I'm afraid he may not be able to do many things. If I were Prime Minister Jiang, I'd better retire and return home as soon as possible to avoid ending up like Miss Jiang in the future."

Although Jiang Wan was sent to practice, he actually died in an accident.

When Shen Qinglan mentioned Jiang Wan at this time, he was naturally comparing Prime Minister Jiang's fate with Jiang Wan.

Prime Minister Jiang looked at Shen Qinglan with a cold face. Although he had not found any evidence for Jiang Wan's death, he knew that Shen Qinglan was definitely involved!

Although Jiang Wan is willful, she is also very independent-minded and smart. She is also the only daughter of Prime Minister Jiang and his first wife. Prime Minister Jiang truly loves Jiang Wan.

Therefore, after Jiang Wan's death, Prime Minister Jiang naturally hated Shen Qinglan.

Prime Minister Jiang glanced at Shen Qinglan, said nothing, turned around and walked away.

On the way back, Shen Qinglan did not take a carriage, but took Huo Zhanting with her and planned to walk back along the street together.

Lu Huaizhu was so disgusted that he didn't bother to be a light bulb. He got on the carriage directly and kindly waved at Lu Jinghuai, inviting him to join him.

But Lu Jinghuai didn't seem to understand Lu Huaizhu's meaning, and just smiled and said:

"Master Lu, why don't you go ahead? Jing Huai also has to go to the shop to inspect it, so he can follow the princess and the others."

Lu Jinghuai is an extraordinary person. In addition to handling government affairs in the court, he still manages the shops he used to take care of, and those shops are also very profitable.

Lu Huaizhu sighed and said, "Well, you are really young and energetic. The War King and I are no match for you."

After Lu Huaizhu said this, he lowered the curtain, leisurely lay back in the carriage, and asked the coachman to leave.

However, Huo Zhanting felt a little uncomfortable after hearing what Lu Huaizhu said.

What do you mean "their age?" He is only twenty-six, not that old, right?

but……

Huo Zhanting glanced at Shen Qinglan. Although Shen Qinglan was wearing official uniform, she had a pretty face. The skin on her face was like a peeled egg, white and delicate, making people want to get intimate with her.

And he... he is seven or eight years older than Shen Qinglan, which seems... indeed a bit too much?

On the other hand, Lu Jinghuai has a handsome appearance, and exudes a youthful aura. Although he is three years younger than Shen Qinglan, they are considered a good match based on their appearance.

To put it bluntly, if Huo Zhanting had tried harder, he might have given birth to a Lu Jinghuai.

Thinking of this, Huo Zhanting looked at Lu Jinghuai with a somewhat unfriendly look.

In particular, the three of them were clearly walking together, but Lu Jinghuai was talking to Shen Qinglan the whole time. The young man's eyes were sparkling, and he looked at Shen Qinglan with reverence as if he was looking at the bright moon in the sky.

It happened that they were all talking about business matters, and Huo Zhanting couldn't get a word in at all. He immediately exuded a frightening aura.

Lu Jinghuai realized it later and felt a chill on his back, and even shivered subconsciously.

He glanced sideways with some suspicion, but found that Huo Zhanting had unconsciously retracted his gaze.

Lu Jinghuai pulled his fox fur coat closer in surprise, and subconsciously thought, "Is the weather already so cold?"

Lu Jinghuai didn't think much about it, and smiled at Shen Qinglan and said:

"By the way, Princess Sister, I just got some news a few days ago. I thought that if this matter was accomplished, I'm afraid you would be rich enough to rival a country. But I can't make up my mind, so I want to ask for your opinion."

When Shen Qinglan heard Lu Jinghuai's words, she naturally became interested.

You know, when it comes to making money, Lu Jinghuai never says such groundless words!

Shen Qinglan immediately looked at Lu Jinghuai with curiosity, and said with a hint of interest: "The Moon Viewing Tower is in front, shall we eat and chat at the same time?"
