Chapter 3567 The male cannon fodder wife in ancient novels 3
An Ran is satisfied with the fact that the prince has no one he likes yet, because she doesn't want to see her spouse in the mission world have someone he likes and be attentive to others, otherwise, she really can't bear it.
That's how it is when doing tasks. Sometimes you encounter a situation where you have a husband. At this time, if the husband doesn't like anyone else, it's okay. There is someone else he likes... Unless you can't complete the task through divorce or divorce, otherwise you will be divorced or divorced.
Divorce because she doesn’t want to continue living with someone she loves.
Since the prince has no one he likes for the time being, An Ran can naturally still live with him.
In view of the fact that Qin Honghou and her ambiguous people succeeded in retaliating against the prince very quickly, An Ran also started to act as soon as she entered the mission world, lest she act too slowly and have no time to save herself.
Since he wants to borrow the prince's power, An Ran naturally has to say hello to the prince when doing things. At that moment, An Ran said to the prince: "Your Highness, I heard that Your Highness has some investigative manpower. Can you lend me some? My mother-in-law wants to investigate something.
We are a little short of manpower. You know, my mother-in-law has just been assigned to be responsible for the household affairs department. She has just taken over the job and is unclear about many things. I am afraid that if I do not do well, I will be criticized, which will not be a good thing for His Highness."
Yes, An Ran plans to start by borrowing the prince's help to investigate some matters in the Household Department, and then lead them to investigate the collusion between the third prince and General Jianping - both of whom are Qin Honghou's romantic partners.
After hearing this, the prince felt that An Ran's words made sense. The prince's mother-in-law was not good at doing things and was reprimanded. It was indeed not good for him. He immediately agreed and said, "Okay, I'll give you some manpower."
The prince said that it was normal to give a little. After all, the prince himself still needed it, and it was impossible to give everyone to An Ran.
And An Ran was satisfied, because her request for someone from the prince was just an introduction, and she could continue to grow and develop on the basis of people like the prince.
The original power of my natal family in the capital was not particularly powerful. They were just the Minister of Household Affairs, and they had just been promoted. They were only in the fourth rank before.
The reason why a girl from a fourth-grade family can also become a crown princess is because the emperor seldom considers his background when establishing a crown princess. In fact, if his background is too strong, the emperor may be worried about whether the prince's power is too strong and it will be detrimental to him. After all,
In history, there were cases where a powerful son forced me to abdicate.
After all, others may not take sides before the crown prince ascends the throne, but once their daughter is designated as the crown princess, the crown prince’s natal family will naturally take sides with the prince’s family. After all, after the princess is married, they and the prince will both prosper and suffer.
, so the Crown Princess’s natal family is too powerful, which is not a good thing for the Emperor.
Therefore, when the emperor proposes marriage to the prince, he sometimes just randomly chooses one from a background that is neither strong nor weak. This is the case for the original person.
Not only was my natal family of average rank, but I also had no background. In fact, my natal family got rich only after my father passed the imperial examination and became an official. It used to be an ordinary rich family, not a big family.
Judging from the emperor's arrangements for the prince's marriage, it is obvious that the emperor was wary of the prince, otherwise he would not have arranged for someone with such a weak background to be the prince's concubine.
Therefore, the prince thinks that his position is very stable and there is no need to worry. It is too early to worry. Otherwise, Qin Honghou will not be able to have an ambiguous partner in the future and promote the third prince to the throne. Obviously, the emperor had thoughts about the prince before the third prince came to the throne.
It's just that the prince and the queen haven't discovered it yet. Even if the prince found a princess with an average background, they didn't raise any suspicion, because in their view, this was the emperor's routine operation. Generally, the emperor was afraid of the power of the prince's wife family.
If she is too strong, she will threaten herself, so marrying such a wife to the prince will make both the prince and the queen feel normal.
The reason An Ran thinks this way is because, if the emperor does not intend to depose the prince, no matter how hard Qin Honghou tries, it will be useless. Qin Honghou's success shows that the emperor also has the idea of replacing him.
Judging from the current situation, it is really hard to see that the emperor likes the third prince or the third prince’s mother, Concubine Wang Shu.
But if he didn’t like Concubine Wang Shu or the third prince, why would the emperor depose the prince?
Thinking of this, An Ran decided to take time to take a closer look at the emperor's attitude towards Concubine Wang Shu or the third prince to see what this emperor was like.
Before that, An Ran arranged for the people assigned to her by the prince to start investigating the situation in the household department.
Because it was under the guise of investigating for her father, An Ran also mentioned this matter to Mr. Zhang, so as not to say that the prince would mention this matter to her father in the future, and her father didn't know. If the prince knew, she was lying.
Mr. Zhang heard that his daughter wanted to investigate the situation in the Ministry of Household Affairs for him, lest he, the newly appointed Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, did not understand the situation and did something wrong, and it would be bad for the emperor to criticize him. This is not what he thought about his daughter.
Thoughtful, he did not object. After all, he had never worked in the household department before, and he should indeed investigate the situation in the household department. Knowing yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger.
Although he also has his own manpower that can investigate, his manpower is still short after all. It is naturally better to have the prince's manpower to help with the investigation.
In fact, the reason why An Ran helped Mr. Zhang investigate was not only to use the guise of Mr. Zhang to slowly investigate the things he wanted to investigate in the future, but also really wanted to help Mr. Zhang, because after Mr. Zhang was transferred to the Ministry of Household Affairs,
, a difficult incident did occur. Although Mr. Zhang had no background and was promoted through ability, he settled the matter because of his good abilities. However, An Ran felt that she should be able to help Mr. Zhang to solve this problem better.
Things are naturally best.
So An Ran didn't lie. She borrowed people from the prince to help Mr. Zhang.
Not to mention what will happen to Mr. Zhang in the future, An Ran told the leader sent by the prince what he wanted to investigate.
"First, I want to know the income and expenditure of various military ministries over the years. Of course, the Ministry of Household Affairs should have the data itself. I mainly want to see if the various ministries are short of pay and whether it is serious; second,
I want to know the income, expenditure and property status of each prince over the years; third, I want to know the disaster relief situation over the years, whether all the funds have been received; fourth, I want to know the tax situation of each state in the past three years, and the local tax burden.
Let’s look at the situation and see if any local official has secretly increased exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, causing public outrage.”
The first two items that An Ran wanted to investigate were naturally related to the third prince and General Jianping. Of course, he did not point them out directly. Instead, he asked these people to check all the princes and the military to avoid naming them directly, which would make people feel strange.
When these people find out that the third prince has a connection with General Jianping, and that General Jianping earns a lot of money from free money to support his private army, then she can mention this matter to the prince and let the prince pay attention.
