My God of Wealth is a Short-lived Ghost

Chapter 320 Brother, You've Changed a Lot

Zhao Jinghong opened the scroll without knowing what was going on. The person depicted in the scroll was the current Shao Bao. He had a cold appearance and looked to be about 25 or 26 years old.

Zhao Jinghong was startled, and hurriedly concealed the shock on his face and asked tentatively, "Grandma, what do you mean? Did you take the wrong one?"

Princess Jinlun was in high spirits when she saw this and laughed, "I didn't take the wrong thing."

Zhao Jinghong's pupils suddenly shrank and his face turned pale. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Princess Jinlun say with a smile, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. How about I let you be your teacher?"

Zhao Jinghong took a deep breath and felt as if he had been reborn. He immediately knelt down and kowtowed deeply to Jin Lun, "Grandmother, I thank you for your kindness and love. I will definitely live up to your expectations."

At the same time, Zhao Hongyu disappeared and came to Zhao Honglin's mansion.

He looked at the carefully tended plants and trees in the mansion, but without stopping for a moment, he walked straight to Zhao Honglin's study and knocked on the door.

Liang Qingzhou's laughter in the room suddenly stopped, and after a moment, Zhao Honglin's steady voice came, "Come in."

Zhao Hongyu hesitated for a moment before opening the door, and then gradually showed up. "Long time no see, how have you been these years?" He turned his head to look at Zhao Honglin, who was already dumbfounded, and then he raised his lips and closed the door with his backhand.

Liang Qingzhou paused with the teacup in his hand, and stared blankly at Zhao Hongyu, "Brother, why are you here?"

Zhao Hongyu chuckled, but it disappeared after a moment. "What? Did I come at the wrong time?"

Zhao Honglin came to his senses immediately after hearing this. He quickly stood up and walked to Zhao Hongyu. His voice was trembling as he spoke, "Ninth Brother."

Zhao Hongyu lowered his eyes and said lightly

At the same time, in Prince Jing’s Mansion

Zhao Jingyu was sitting beside Zhao Jingjia's couch at the moment, looking at him with concern, "Is Fourth Brother feeling better today?"

Zhao Jingjia put his fist to his lips and coughed softly. After a moment, he shook his head and said, "It's all right. I heard that the crown prince has been replaced again?"

Zhao Jingyu smiled inscrutablely after hearing this. "Yes! After a round, it's the second brother's turn. You will enjoy a good life in the capital from now on."

Zhao Jingjia was shocked when he heard this, knowing that Zhao Jingyu had something else in mind, but he pretended to be calm and asked, "Seventh brother, what do you mean?" After saying this, he turned his head and kept coughing.

Zhao Jingyu raised his hand to calm Zhao Jingjia down, and said in a teasing tone, "It's nothing. I'm going to Anyuan City. Before I leave, I wanted to come and see you, fourth brother. After all, we will be together less and more in the future. I can't bear to leave you."

Zhao Jingjia heard this and shook his head helplessly, "You are not reluctant to part with me, but I am reluctant to part with my appearance that is similar to that of your eldest brother."

Zhao Jingyu reached out and held Zhao Jingjia's hand, pretending to speak his mind. "Fourth brother, what are you talking about? I know all about how good you are to me."

Zhao Jingjia shook his head tiredly, smiling but saying nothing.

"Fourth brother, please don't disbelieve me. I am telling you the truth. Now that I have grown up, I have discovered that my eldest brother is not a good person. He is extremely hypocritical." Zhao Jingyu's tone was sincere but ironic.

Zhao Jingjia's eyes flashed with a gloomy look after hearing this. After a moment, he raised his hand to cover Zhao Jingyu's mouth. "How can you say such words? What if others hear it and it falls into the ears of the real owner, what will happen?"

Zhao Jingyu turned his head to look out the window and sneered, "Why are you afraid? He left Beijing a long time ago. I heard that he accompanied his wife to travel around the world. Besides, he is not the eldest brother." His tone seemed nonchalant, but in fact he was observing Zhao Jingjia's every move with his peripheral vision.

As expected, as soon as Zhao Jingjia finished speaking, his eyes widened and his pupils shrank suddenly, and even his breathing stopped. "Is it just Emperor Hongyu?"

"Well, otherwise why do you think the position of crown prince fell to the second brother? It's because Emperor Hongyu values ​​him." Having said this, Zhao Jingyu turned around, and seeing Zhao Jingjiaqing's face turning pale, he felt much better. At the same time, he asked knowingly, "What's wrong with fourth brother? Why do you look so bad? I'll go call the doctor!" He was about to get up and leave.

Seeing this, Zhao Jingjia hurriedly grabbed Zhao Jingyu's wrist, and said anxiously, "It's okay. Do you have any way to contact Emperor Hongyu?"

Zhao Jingyu raised a barely perceptible smile, but nodded calmly.

At this time, in Zhao Honglin's mansion

"So you came here..." Liang Qingzhou's tone was full of temptation, and he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Zhao Hongyu looked up at Zhao Honglin with a hint of helplessness in his eyes and said, "I want to entrust someone to you. He has a similar personality to you, and you two will definitely get along well."

Zhao Honglin was extremely surprised and said, "Who could make you say that? It seems like you have a deep relationship with him."

Zhao Hongyu picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, shaking his head at the same time. "No, this person is your great-grandson, named Jingjia."

Zhao Honglin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he chuckled and said, "How can he be my great-grandson? Since he has been adopted by you, he is your grandson. What do you mean by this?"

Zhao Hongyu sighed with an unfathomable look in his eyes, "Zhao Jinyao has passed away, and his youngest son is too young. I'm afraid that there will be no successor to the Lin Palace. I thought that you have rested for so long, and it's time for you to go back."

Zhao Honglin and Liang Qingzhou both exclaimed in disbelief, "This! I'm afraid it's inappropriate. Although I faked my death and escaped, if I go back, won't the court be in chaos?"

Zhao Hongyu put down the teacup, shook his head and said calmly, "I have already arranged everything in the court, you can go back without worry." As soon as he finished speaking, it turned into a wooden box and placed it on the table. "The child was poisoned and is still waiting for the antidote."

Zhao Honglin stood up immediately after hearing this and said, "I will leave immediately." Then he started to pack his bags.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongyu raised his hand and grabbed his wrist, sighed softly, "Don't worry, I still have something personal to tell you." Then he let go of Zhao Honglin's hand.

Liang Qingzhou immediately stood up and said, "You guys chat slowly." When he turned around, he sent a message to Zhao Hongyu, "Brother, you have changed a lot."

The next moment, Zhao Hongyu's calm voice entered his soul, "I just don't want to walk this road a second time."

After Liang Qingzhou pushed the door open and left, Zhao Honglin sat back in his chair with a bewildered look on his face. "When did Brother Jiu become so sentimental?"

Zhao Hongyu lowered his eyes and chuckled. His laughter was filled with helplessness and self-mockery. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. In the end, he just shook his head and said, "Forget it. I won't say any more."

Zhao Honglin frowned for a moment and then sighed, "Brother Jiu, is there anything between you and me that cannot be said? If so, just say it directly."

Zhao Hongyu felt a sharp pain in his heart when he heard this. He picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then turned his head to look at Zhao Honglin. He stared at him for a long time but only said, "I was too suspicious back then. I apologize to you." He slowly stood up and bowed to Zhao Honglin, saying "take care." Then he sighed and disappeared on the spot.
