Chapter 758 - 752: The Wedding Arrangements
Xiao Jinyan was stunned for a moment and said, "Cousin, take a look at Jin Xiaoran. If he is to marry, he marries the legitimate daughter of the Lin Family, true aristocracy. As for you, fancying a concubine’s daughter wouldn’t be too bad, but you just had to set your sights on their family’s Miss Biao. Although she too is a miss, add the word ’biao,’ and that means she’s just a relative, with no real connection to the Miss.
Cousin, there’s a world of difference between the Miss and Miss Biao. Since the Lin Family’s elder miss has married the eldest prince, that means the Lin Family will support the empress’s party in the future. That is to say, the Miss Biao you fancy will be of no use whatsoever. Have you thought this through?"
Jin Zijin stared at him silently with a cold gaze, and he had to stop talking. With an awkward tone, he said, "I haven’t even mentioned this to my father or elder brother yet. I think there’s still room for a turnaround. See what you make of it. Alright, let’s not talk about this. Let’s talk business first. What did you call me here today for?"
Jin Zijin withdrew his gaze and said indifferently, "I came to tell you that Jin Ziyuan will make his move on the day of the eldest prince’s grand wedding. I hear that you’re in charge of security at the event?"
After hearing this, Xiao Jinyan was momentarily stunned, then nodded and said, "That’s me, yes. This brat, if he dares to cause trouble, I’ll deal with him on the spot."
Jin Zijin waved his hand and said, "Now is not the time to kill him. Let’s keep him around for now. I’m telling you so you can take precautions, and on the other hand... let him have a taste of success, just make sure nothing serious happens."
The corners of Xiao Jinyan’s mouth twitched. He had no idea what Jin Zijin intended with such arrangements.
"Why not just capture him and take the credit?"
Jin Zijin replied indifferently, "You won’t be able to catch him. Better think about how to protect the event so nothing goes wrong." Besides, they wouldn’t allow the officials to capture him.
"Ah...?" Xiao Jinyan was displeased and said, "Why do you look down on me like that? Then why did you come to tell me this alone?"
Jin Zijin sighed and said, "About placing you in charge of the eldest prince’s wedding security, while the second prince’s wedding security is taken care of by the Ducal Residence, do you understand the implication of this?"
