Chapter 542: My Private Revenue Is Your Business

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“This alone is sufficient grounds for Fourth Brother’s promotion.”

“In these circumstances, no one would openly dare to reprimand Fourth Brother. However, the situation in private is a bit more nuanced.”

“While the suspicion of Fourth Brother being a pawn of the previous dynasty has been dispelled, it has simultaneously escalated. Now, Fourth Brother is perceived as a pawn of the Third Prince.”

“It’s not far-fetched for the Public House to suspect that Fourth Brother is allied with the Third Prince.”

“They may speculate that agents of the Third Prince discovered the secret passage within the castle, strategically placing operatives inside.”

“The narrative they might construct is that the Third Prince’s agents, through poisoning and arson, facilitated Fourth Brother’s capture of the castle without losing a single soldier. The objective: to elevate Fourth Brother’s status as the God of War, earning him commendation from the Imperial Court and recognition from Old General Chen. This would secure his position in the army as a future ally of the Third Prince.”

“If the Public House confirms that Fourth Brother is aligned with the Third Prince, it poses a threat to his situation.”

“Though there may be no overt danger, shadows of uncertainty persist, making the future unpredictable.”

“It all hinges on Fourth Brother’s actions moving forward.”

Qin Zhenzhen carefully pondered Su Bin’s words. His analysis wasn’t sensational; it was grounded in reason.

“So, you’re suggesting that if Fourth Brother can’t provide a clear explanation about how he knew of the secret passage and the identities of the nearly 100 individuals involved, he could be in jeopardy?”

“Yes.”

“And you harbor doubts about Fourth Brother’s explanation as well?”

Su Bin nodded. In any case, he sensed a loophole in Qin Silong’s account.

Qin Silong held the position of chiliarch in the military camp, confining him within its bounds in the absence of a specific mission. His actions, the extent of his authority, and the capabilities of his subordinates were all visible to those within the camp.Nᴇw chapters are publɪshed on novelenglish.net . Fɪre.ɴet

Rather than risk suspicion from the Public House, it was imperative to devise a clearer explanation. Su Bin, however, found himself grappling with the complexity of the situation, causing a headache.

In the absence of an immediate solution, Qin Zhenzhen grasped the gravity of the issue. She contemplated revealing Fourth Brother’s rebirth to Su Bin, but such a decision required consultation with Fourth Brother first. His private message, detailing the recent victory, was anticipated shortly.

As Fourth Brother had reported his expedited journey to Dragon Phoenix Hall to Su Bin, Qin Zhenzhen anticipated an ordinary private message from him.

Within its contents, she would find Fourth Brother’s sentiments and insights.

Only after receiving the message could she gauge whether to divulge the secret to Su Bin. Musing aloud, she questioned, “What course of action should we

Su Bin offered reassurance. “There must be a solution. Fourth Brother is inherently clever; he might have already devised a strategy to address the situation.”

“I hope so,” Qin Zhenzhen replied, clinging to the prospect of Fourth Brother’s ingenuity.

Qin Zhenzhen resolved to disclose the secret to Su Bin, redirecting her thoughts by changing the topic.

“Is the renovation of the government office completed?”

Su Bin smiled and responded, “Almost. It should be finished in about three days. I appreciate your support, my wife!”

While it appeared that Qin Zhenzhen provided the funds for the government office repairs, the reality was that the money came from Su Bin’s personal account. As the master of the Dragon Phoenix Hall, he received the lion’s share of the dividends.

Su Bin possessed greater financial resources than Qin Zhenzhen, given the extensive network of the Dragon Phoenix Hall under his care. Managing the safety and well-being of its members across the country imposed a weighty responsibility on him.

In a lighthearted manner, Qin Zhenzhen teased him, saying, “You’re quite the character. I didn’t actually foot the bill.”

Su Bin responded earnestly, “We’re already husband and wife. My money is your money. In the future, you’ll be in charge of my private accounts..”
