My Princess and Crown Prince Are Revived
Chapter 264: Again Conceived a Plan

Chapter 264: Chapter 264: Again Conceived a Plan

Chu Baihan had left after dropping her warning, and she moved swiftly.

She didn’t want to listen to their nonsense any longer.

"Chu Baihan, come back! Come back!"

Qiang Guangguang had not expected Chu Baihan to actually defy them, and he was so angry that he was gasping for air.

"Grandfather, Grandfather, are you all right?"

Qiang Na hurried over to pat his back and help him catch his breath.

Qiang Guangguang’s breath had somewhat stabilized, but his countenance was still exceedingly grim.

Lifting his hand, he smashed the teacup he held heavily onto the ground.

"This beast, even more useless than her mother, truly a stain on the Qiang Family’s bloodline!" he said with a somber tone.

Qiang Jianbai added coldly, "Back when she was still young, if we could have taken her to be raised in the Qiang Family, it wouldn’t have come to this rebellion. God knows what she went through living outside all those years, being raised to be an ingrate!"

"Grandfather, if cousin doesn’t want to help us, what should we do? The Imperial Palace hasn’t held a selection for many years, and we have no way to plant someone inside."

Qiang Na clutched her handkerchief, speaking with worry.

Qiang Jianbai spoke with a complicated tone, "That’s true, the Emperor and the Crown Prince grow weaker by the day. If one day they really were to meet with misfortune, then our Qiang Family would truly be ruined."

The last sentence managed to make Qiang Guangguang’s expression turn even colder.

"We still have to rely on Chu Baihan, after all, the Emperor is wary of us now, and it’s hard for us to even see him," he said through clenched teeth.

"But Grandfather, as you just saw, our cousin treats us as if we’re enemies. How would she possibly help us?"

Qiang Na pouted and muttered softly.

"Tell me, Chu Baihan has only been back in Nanduan Kingdom for six years, where does she get the audacity to be so arrogant?" Qiang Guangguang’s tone was odd.

This remark caused both Qiang Na and Qiang Jianbai to show a slight change in their expressions.

"Indeed, she is the daughter of the Empress, but her disposition doesn’t resemble her mother’s at all," Qiang Jianbai said, shaking his head.

"Could it be, she isn’t truly the daughter of Aunt Empress?" Qiang Na suddenly asked with a strange tone.

Upon hearing this, both Qiang Guangguang and Qiang Jianbai furrowed their brows deeply.

In fact, they had suspected as much before.

When Chu Baihan first disobeyed them, they felt she wasn’t of the Qiang Family or the Imperial lineage.

But after thorough verification, it was confirmed that she was indeed the true Princess.

"Enough, whether she is or isn’t doesn’t matter anymore. We must make use of her," Qiang Guangguang said sternly.

"As for why she has become so domineering over the years, I can probably guess a reason or two."

"Father, what have you guessed?"

"Grandfather, please tell us, why does cousin dare to defy the Qiang Family, and why does she make enemies of so many?"

"Hmph," Qiang Guangguang snorted coldly, then spoke eerily, "Naturally, it’s because she has a bigger backer now, so she is not afraid to be our enemy."

A bigger backer?

Qiang Jianbai and Qiang Na hesitated for a moment, and quickly realized what he meant.

"Father, are you referring to the Tang Sect Master?" Qiang Jianbai ventured.

Qiang Guangguang nodded, "Indeed, it is the Tang Sect Master. You both saw earlier, how he defended Chu Baihan at every turn. You all know the standing of the Tang Sect in Jianghu. Even the royal families of various countries have to be wary of them. With the Tang Sect’s support, why would Chu Baihan fear anything?"

"In the end, she’s just a vixen, seducing the Tang Sect Master with her face and then making the Tang Sect serve her. This is why she fears nothing," Qiang Na said with a sour tone.

She remembered earlier when Chu Baihan was being picked on, and the Tang Sect Master stood up for her without hesitation.

Chu Baihan, how lucky she is.

So enviable it makes others jealous.

"And you have the nerve to talk? Chu Baihan, a woman who was abandoned by a man, was still able to attract the Tang Sect Master. Why don’t you have this ability?"

Qiang Guangguang turned his head to look at Qiang Na, his contemptuous words just spewing out.

Qiang Na’s expression tensed up fiercely.

Under her long sleeves, her nails almost pierced through her palms.

What grandfather said was truly humiliating.

Qiang Jianbai still held a lot of affection for Qiang Na. Seeing her aggrieved, he hurriedly spoke up, "Father, our Nana is a lady of a respectable family. How can she stoop to do something so despicable like Chu Baihan?"

"Despicable or not, she managed to allure someone from the Tang Sect to her side, that’s using her talent!"

Qiang Guangguang glanced at Qiang Jianbai and said in disapproving tone.

Qiang Jianbai gave an awkward laugh, not daring to retort.

Qiang Guangguang scanned Qiang Na from head to toe, his eyes quickly flashing with insight.

"The reason Chu Baihan dares to defy us is that she has grown wings. If we break her wings, she will naturally have to come to our side," he said.

"Father, do you have any plans?"

"The Tang Sect Master is her backbone. But if one day he refuses to help her, what kind of retreat could she possibly have?"

Qiang Guangguang’s tone became even more disdainful.

Upon hearing this, Qiang Jianbai frowned slightly, "Father, do you mean to destroy Chu Baihan’s relationship with the Tang Sect Master? That seems not that easy."

He was also a man, so naturally he could feel how much Yan Lin had cherished Chu Baihan when he stood up for her just earlier.

Therefore, breaking their relationship seemed challenging.

"Since ancient times, men have always had multiple wives and concubines. This is not only because men hold a prestigious status, but also because we are naturally passionate. There won’t be a man in this world who will stay chaste for another woman..."

"No matter how exceptional a woman is, she will have a day when she becomes tiresome. Isn’t it the same with your sister? The Emperor professed his love for her, yet didn’t he end up marrying other concubines?"

Qiang Guangguang’s words were more scornful with each utterance.

Qiang Jianbai calmed down and thought it through, indeed it was so.

Both he and his father, ’nobody knows how many women we have in our household.

’What man can assure that he’ll only love one woman his entire life? That would be foolishness!

"So, we still have our chance," Qiang Guangguang said as he once again directed his gaze at Qiang Na.

Qiang Na’s breathing became rapid; she was somewhat nervous.

"Qiang Na is our Qiang Family’s legitimate daughter, meticulously raised since childhood. Chu Baihan grew up in the wild and doesn’t understand etiquette, plus she has such a domineering nature. Though she has nothing but her appearance, with time, the Tang Sect Master will naturally tire of her. So..." he said faintly.

Qiang Jianbai quickly caught on and tentatively asked, "Father, are you suggesting that Nana goes to..."

"Exactly, I intend to send Qiang Na to entice the Tang Sect Master, in order to sabotage his relationship with Chu Baihan," Qiang Guangguang said, blatantly stating his plan.
