When I knew that the redemption of Honglian's reincarnation was limited, everything became urgent.

Even Xue Huaiyi's sorrow didn't last long. Three days later, he recovered and discussed with me the plan for revenge.

In my memory, four months later, there would be a major case in the capital, but the Xue family and Shen family were not involved in it in the previous life. If I wanted to overthrow Xue Huai'an and seize the right to inherit the title within half a year, I had to design a plan to involve him in this earth-shattering case.

In the flood in Henan, there was no gain. The Fourth Prince represented the court and went south to provide disaster relief. This was originally a great act of imperial grace, but it was turned into a business opportunity by these corrupt officials.

Firstly, the relief funds for the victims were inevitably embezzled. This is not all, the Fourth Prince even sold the spots in the relief team privately.

In the capital, there are those noble families and high-ranking officials. It is inevitable that there will be a worthless prodigal in the family. If they can go south with the Fourth Prince to provide disaster relief this time, it would be considered a good deed and they could seek a position from the court in the future.

Therefore, many people are willing to pay money to buy this opportunity. They can easily obtain credit by getting some title and going back and forth for two months.

The Xue family is born on the battlefield, and they have always despised such meritorious achievements bought with money. But this time it's different. Xue Huaiyi caused a scene while drunk at an old general's banquet. At the dinner table, he opened his clothes to reveal the scars on his body and questioned why Xue Dazhuang hadn't achieved anything yet and why he should inherit the title and enjoy the benefits.

Although the old general scolded him on the spot, he couldn't help shedding tears when he saw the scars all over his son's body.

This scene deeply stimulated Xue Huai'an. He realized the crisis. His current younger brother had already revealed his fangs and was ready to snatch his food.

He hated the sharp poison arrows for not piercing through Xue Huaiyi's body back then, leaving him as a trouble until now.

Now, everyone accompanying him in and out are top-notch soldiers. It's difficult to find a good opportunity for assassination.

The only way to save himself at this time is to perform well and make his father abandon the idea of changing the successor.

At this time, there happened to be an opportunity to go south for disaster relief with the Fourth Prince. Xue Huai'an certainly couldn't miss it and immediately bought it:

"Father, this child will accompany the Fourth Prince south, unable to serve you by your side. Please take care of yourself!"

A simple relief trip turned out to be a touching scene of parting and deceit, even tricking the old general into shedding tears.

"Brother, take care of yourself on this journey, don't worry about the family, I will often come back to visit Father."

The two brothers, each harboring sinister intentions, staged a deep brotherly affection outside the city gate.
