Chapter 8 — Three Thousand Hairs Fall All Over The Ground, The Royal Regret Goes Crazy

Just don't move. Once struck, it is a fatal blow….END OF PART 2

“Where will he strike from?” I asked Van Lan.

“Business, and government.”

His eyes became sharp.

"He has been doing business in Jiangnan for many years, and has also supported many of his own forces."

“In the past, our Van family and his river water did not violate well water.”

“He doesn't dare touch us easily.”

“But now, we have our faces torn off.”

“He will definitely use all his force to suppress our industry in Jiangnan.”

"At the same time, he will also present a statement to the court, asking the emperor to weaken the position of royal merchant of the Van family."

“It may even be possible to accuse us of baseless crimes.”

I frowned slightly.

“So what should we do?”

"If soldiers come, generals will support them. When water comes, land will stop them."

The old voice was very calm. As if everything was within your expectations.

“In the marketplace, he cannot touch our foundation.”

“The Van family's property has deep roots and many branches, and it is not something he can easily shake.”

“At most, his petty tricks only cost us a little bit of flesh.”

“As for the school officials…”

The corners of his lips curled up into a cold, meaningful smile.

“Does he think that this Great Summer world is still decided by his Tieu family?”

"He forgot, where did his noble royal position come from?"

"I also forgot why our Van family can stand tall for a hundred years without falling."

My heart moved slightly.

“Cousin, what do you mean?”

Van Lan looked at me and slowly said:

“A Dao, do you know why our Van family has immense wealth and can still be safe and sound?”

“Because we don't just make money for the royal family.”

“We can also raise troops for the royal family.”

My heart was violently shaken. This is the felony of treason. The uncle seemed to see my fear and immediately reassured me:

“This army is not for treason, but only for self-defense.”

“This is what Emperor Thai To personally promised our Van family ancestors in the past.”

“He gave us a golden death immunity card, and a secret decree.”

“Allow us to secretly build in Jiangnan a team of ‘Yun family army’ with no more than 30,000 people.”

“This army only listens to the orders of the head of the Van family.”

“Just to protect the Van family's hundred-year legacy.”

“This matter, only generations of emperors and heads of the Van family know.”

“It is top secret.”

I was so shocked by this secret that I couldn't speak for a long time. I didn't even think about it in my dreams. Our Van family still has such an amazing trump card. No wonder he's so steadfast. I don't blame you for saying Tieu Huyen can't touch our foundation.

“Tieu Huyen doesn't know about this.”

The old voice was full of confidence.

“He's too cocky.”

“He thinks that as long as he holds the court and military power, he can do whatever he wants.”

"But what he doesn't know is that the person who actually holds the flag on this chessboard has never been him before."

I look at Van Lan. Look at your eyes as deep as the starry sky. For the first time in my heart, I had the most intuitive and profound understanding of the two words power.

“Uncle, so what should we do next?”

My voice has returned to calm. But inside there is a fire burning brightly. Uncle Cuu only said one word.

"Wait?" I don't understand.

“Yes, wait.”

“Wait for Tieu Huyen to make the first move.”

“Waiting for him to reveal all his trump cards.”

“Then we will deal a fatal blow.”

Van Lan stood up and went to the window. Look at the blooming lotus pond outside.

“Jiangnan, it's about to rain.”

The person slowly said:

“As for what we need to do—”

“That was when he was turned into a chicken.”

“Give him an umbrella named ‘despair’.”

I understand. Cuu Cuu wants to strike back to overpower the opponent. We want to lead Tieu Huyen to completely fall into the trap we have set. Then one batch caught it all. This plan is very risky. But also very stimulating.

“I can't just stay in To Thanh.”

I stood up and walked next to Van Lan.

“I want to go to the capital.”

The uncle turned his head to look at me. His eyes were a bit surprised.

“What are you doing in the capital?”

“That place is now a dragon's den and a tiger's den.”

“I know.”

My eyes were extremely determined.

“But only there can you see your enemy at close range.”

“Only there can you find his fatal weakness.”

“I don't want to continue hiding behind my uncle anymore.”

“This time, I want to hold the chess piece myself.”

I want to play a game with Tieu Huyen myself. I want to see with my own eyes how he walks towards destruction step by step. This is my enemy. We have to report it ourselves. Van Lan looked at me. Looked for a long, long time. The surprise in people's eyes gradually turned into appreciation and joy.

“You… have really grown up.”

The person exclaimed. He no longer advises us:
