Joy of Life: I am a Han Dynasty succubus, and I rebel from the beginning

Chapter 179, Whoever wins, I will help! The confrontation between Liu Hong's confidant and Fan Ruoruo

Er Gouzi was still angry and scolded the generals a few more times before letting them go.

"It seems that there is no unity among the Chariot and Cavalry Generals."

A general sighed.

He was immediately glared at by the deputy commander who was a former member of Liu Hong's personal guards, and quickly shut his mouth.

Liu Hong's foundation was unstable, so he needed to marry Fan Ruoruo, the daughter of a century-old aristocratic family, to elevate his status in front of the aristocratic families.

The attitude of these aristocratic families is that they can accept it, but Liu Hong must share some power.

Fan Ruoruo's thoughts are just a microcosm of the aristocratic families.

The maid didn't dare to provoke Ergouzi anymore. After all, this commander was dark-faced and cruel. He didn't even give face to his wife, let alone her, a maid.

When Fan Ruoruo heard the maid's exaggerated report, her pretty face turned cold and did not look very good.

She originally just wanted to test the waters by using her status as the general's wife to dispatch the city defense forces.

I didn't expect to receive such fierce resistance in return.

Even Ergouzi, who was always known as Liu Hong's loyal dog, almost pointed at her nose and scolded her in front of all the generals of the city defense army.

What a powerful lady! Who is she being sarcastic about?

"Liu Hong, what do you think after hearing this?"

The maid spoke timidly.

"Madam, the Lord is out inspecting the garrison division's armaments, so he doesn't know about this matter for the time being."

Fan Ruoruo's expression eased a little, it seemed that this was Ergouzi's own decision, but she still snorted coldly.

"You don't have time to accompany me to Cangshan Villa, but you will have time if you go out to inspect the garrison division."

At this point, the relationship has become so strained.

It's not just because of Fan Ruoruo, but also because of Liu Hong's attitude.

If Liu Hong fell in love with her and agreed with her in everything, even the ice would melt.

However, although Fan Ruoruo was treated well by Liu Hong, she felt a sense of alienation and suspicion.

Fan Ruoruo, who was not used to the new environment, instinctively wanted to rely on the Fan family and Fan Xian.

On the outskirts of Kyoto, Liu Hong had half a day of leisure time.

He couldn't be partial to either side and could only pretend to be deaf and dumb.

"Sir, Madam bypassed you and gave orders directly to the city defense forces. This is still Kyoto. If they return to Qianlong Bay, I'm afraid they will turn the world upside down."

Ji Xin finally spoke out what was in his mind.

Look at what Sang Wen did in Qianlong Bay. He never interfered in the affairs of Qianlong Bay.

All matters, big or small, were decided by Han Xin, Xiao He, Fatty Lu and Moss.

In Peigong's mansion, everything was done in an orderly manner to appease the Grand Princess of Northern Qi.

Who the hell is Fan Ruoruo! She's been married for only half a year, and she's already acting like a demon.

If Sang Wen's status was not so humble, even the Three Heroes of the Early Han Dynasty and the old minister Qianlong would probably support Sang Wen as the mistress.

Liu Hong calmed himself down and looked at Ji Xin for a while.

Ji Xin felt creepy when he saw this. After all, this was Liu Hong's family affair. Why was he complaining about it?

"It seems that your dissatisfaction with the Fan family and Fan Ruoruo has reached its peak these days. Well, just go ahead and do it this time."

Liu Hong sighed softly.

"But don't forget, Fan Ruoruo is pregnant after all, so she has to save face in the end."

Liu Hong knew that pregnant women were emotionally sensitive and suspicious.

So he has always been indulging Fan Ruoruo, whether it was Qian Xing allowing the Fan family to own a large number of shares, or the peace of Fan Xian's wedding, or Fan Ruoruo's frequent residence in the Fan Mansion.

Liu Hong didn't care about these things and decided to give in a little if he could.

It’s actually okay for Fan Ruoruo to interfere in Liu Hong’s power... After all, Liu Hong is not afraid of the harem interfering in politics.

But let Liu Hong see Fan Ruoruo’s power!

If you can't even suppress the arrogant and powerful generals under your command, how can you become Empress Lu?
This time, Liu Hong condoned his subordinates' double-dealing and even counterattack against Fan Ruoruo.

And Fan Ruoruo used the power of the Fan family or Fan Xian's power.

Liu Hong didn't care.

He will help whoever is the winner!
At the General's residence, Fan Ruoruo called her long-lost brother, Fan Sizhe, to her side. "Sister..."

Versace instinctively had a natural fear of his sister who had disciplined him since he was a child.

Standing in front of Fan Ruoruo, he felt somewhat uncomfortable, without any trace of the high-spirited spirit of the first president of Bank of China Qian.

"As the president of the Bank of China, you have a deficit of 20 million taels in the inner treasury. Do you have any way to solve it?"

Fan Ruoruo looked at her younger brother whom she had raised since childhood, and her tone softened a lot.

At this point, only family members are trustworthy.

"Sister, the money business is in a mess. It will be difficult to withdraw even 5 million taels, let alone more than 20 million taels."

Versace's heart skipped a beat.

No way! Sister, are you going to use the money from the bank to make up for the losses in the inner treasury?

If my brother-in-law knew about this, he would probably be so angry that he would send troops to take the money back, right?

Fan Ruoruo glared at Versace unhappily.

"Qianhang was founded by Liu Hong. How could I do such an irrational thing? I just want you to organize the shop owners you know to support my brother at Cangshan Villa."

"If that's the case, I should be able to do it! But sister, does my brother-in-law know about this?"

Versace scratched his head and thought for a long time, but he didn't feel anything was wrong.

Fan Ruoruo's face turned cold.

"Do you think I'll be useless if I leave Liu Hong?"

Versace didn't dare to say a word, even if his sister lost her temper because she was pregnant.

He didn't dare to talk back.

Versace also loved his unborn nephew very much.

He will experience a turbulent era and will also be a witness to the union of Liu Hong and the Fan family.

Versace tiptoed away, using his identity as the bank's president to call on merchants in Kyoto.

In response to the call of Fan Xian, the Chief of the Supervisory Council and the Envoy of the Internal Treasury, he went to the Cangshan Villa.

Cangshan Mountain is dozens of miles away from Kyoto by mountain road.

These shop owners cursed as they packed their luggage and prepared to head to Cangshan Mountain with their guards.

At this time, Shi Chanli, the vice president of Qian Bank, spoke up and said that anyone who went to Cangshan would be giving him no face.

Who is Shi Chanli?

That was a close confidant of Liu Hong who had joined him when Liu Hong was still a successful man.

For a moment, these shop owners smelled a hint of gunpowder.

Moqi pretended to be silent and prepared to wait for a few days to see what the situation in Kyoto would be like.

The forces under Liu Hong's command all took sides. Er Gouzi, Ji Xin, Shi Chanli, and other close confidants stood clearly against Fan Ruoruo.

However, the in-laws such as Versace, Fan Xian, Deng Ziyue and Wang Qinian expressed their support for Fan Ruoruo who already had a formal status.

As for Hou Jichang, the doctor-in-chief of the Ministry of Justice, Yang Wanli, the doctor-in-chief of the Ministry of Personnel, Cheng Jialin, the doctor-in-chief of the Ministry of War, and He Zongwei, the left censor-in-chief of the Censorate, they all pretended to be mute.

After he resigned from the position of prime minister and the prime minister system was abolished.

Another round of turmoil is about to sweep in, and this time, the struggle will probably be even more intense.

Because the emperor is not involved, these officials have no worries about their lives and property, and they only work to curry favor with the forces behind them.

Liu Hong, who should have been at the center of the storm, left Kyoto at this time, nominally to supervise the military affairs of Kyoto Prefecture.

And anyone with a discerning eye could see that those close to Liu Hong did not have Liu Hong's tacit approval.

How could he resist Fan Ruoruo so fiercely?

In the commander's mansion, Er Gouzi's face was flushed and he couldn't stop urging Shi Chanli to drink.

"Brother Shi, this time it's all thanks to you for supporting us! Otherwise, that little girl Fan Ruoruo would have headed to Cangshan Villa with a proud look on her face."

After saying that! Er Gouzi bit off a piece of the pig's head fiercely.

Shi Chanli gave a bitter smile and gave a kind reminder.

"Commander Gou, Miss Ruoruo is the mistress after all, so don't make it too embarrassing when the time comes."
