Throne

Chapter 4: Stares

How big is the position of Royal heirs?

Well, its quite big but as compared to his brother and sisters, Hao Jiazhi has a very small position as he has zero achievements so far

He has no achievement in martial arts training or any literature skills

Though in the span of 6 months he did learn various things, But he learned it from the local teacher's not the teachers appointed by the imperial/royal family

Thus, whatever he has learned so far is not yet known by anyone

So far, the imperial family only knows that Hao Jiazhi has finally started to grow up and showing various movements after all they have spies here and there, around Hao Jiazhi

Something Hao Jiazhi has long sensed and that's the reason why he has not made any big move, even he don't want to attract a lot of attention

It's been 2 months since Hao Jiazhi brought Han Yachun and so far he had been training her how to fight and also teaching her 'how to read and writer'

He is making sure that she grows the way he wants and also, so far he hadn't put his hands on her yet/slept with her yet

Present time-

"Wait, you can't go-.. Sorry My lord" a guard who was trying to stop Hao Jiazhi from entering a place said and bowed his head to him

Where is he right now?

He is in the government office, the place where Governor or the state administrator works

It is not allowed to enter the place for local civilians and because Hao Jiazhi don't have any type of sparky carriage or even a horse, they thought he is a civilian as he and Han Yachun had simple clothes on them

But when he showed them his royal seal/token, they allowed him to enter

Also, those servants that used to disrespect him now no longer disrespect him and wanted to provide assistance in his journey but Hao Jiazhi said no to them

The government office is just 30 minutes away from his house show there was no need to go with a huge crowd

The guards told the governor and other officials working in the office about the arrival of Hao Jiazhi and all of them gave a warm welcome to him

He is royal blood so who on earth would dare to disrespect him, even though he is useless in their eyes but still royal blood is a royal blood

That's how things are in this world

After passing the alley and meeting various officials, finally, Hao Jiazhi and Han Yachun reached a room, the governor's room

The moment he entered the place, A man in dark green-blue drees welcomed him

"Oh Lord Hao Jiazhi, if you had told me that you are coming I would have made some arrangements for you, why bother coming here on foot.

I would have sent a few horses to pick you up" The governor said to him with a smile

His name is Mo Xinyi, the governor of this whole state/Province (Jinmin)

The way he talked to Hao Jiazhi, Hazo Jiazhi made up his mind to make him suffer one day for sure but he is not a person who let emotions control his big dreams, so he stayed silent and just gave a smile

The governor also ogled the beauty by the side of Hao Jiazhi but didn't do anything

He led the way and showed 2 seats to Hao Jiazhi and his companion

After sitting on their seat, the begin the talk

"The main reason for me coming here is because I wanted to see some records of this city and other 2 districts" Hao Jiazhi said to him

Mo Xinyi smiled and said, "I am sorry to say this but these records is not something that can be shown to anyone…"

Hao Jiazhi nodded and said "But I am Hao Jiazhi, 4th son of the emperor... A Royal blood, am I really not eligible to see those records?"

Mo Xinyi just kept his smile and stayed silent for a while

He then said "Royal blood… Yes, you are royal blood and you can see the records, sorry I just forgot that you are the son of an emperor

You know, I got tons of work to do rather than just lazing off every day so, I forget things easily"

In truth, Mo Xinyi wanted to say that you are not royal blood but a stain in the name of royal blood, but he can't say that

Mo Xinyi called his servant and told them to bring the records of the city and other 2 districts

The records are not allowed to be taken home, so Hao Jiazhi has to read it here

What he wanted to know was how many families live in each district and what is the minimum to maximum earning of each person to a merchant

Something that can be read in a few hours as he only has to look at the final number for the families and then just know the numbers showing maximum time to know the earning

The servant brought the books and then he started reading all the records one after another, and because Han Yachun is not royal blood and neither Hao Jiazhi has significant power/connections she can't read the books

It took him around an hour to understand things and finally concluded the final results

"Thank You" Hao Jiazhi said to Mo Xinyi, ready to leave the place

Mo Xinyi, while sitting, said "Please come again"

Then he left the place

Outside-

Hao Jizahi now has all the valuable information he wants to have for his big plan and his next move but still, there is a problem

Those spies around him

Hao Jiazhi could sense eyes/stares from a different place on him, after all, he had been a gang leader in his past life and he could tell by the simple look, who is a cop in disguise

"It's going to be tough" Hao Jiazhi said as he looked around the street

"What?" Han Yachun didn't get what he meant and asked

"nothing lets go home" Hao Jiazhi said and left the place

Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Devil

Race to the

Throne

Chapter 5: Devil

It has been a week since Hao Jiazhi had made a visit to the governor's office and right now he is just waiting patiently for the right time

What right time?

It's about searching for men's who will work for him and because the work will be mostly illegal stuff and other things, He just can't go out and say "New members needed for Gang, You will be paid well" or something like that

He has to go out, search for some suitable people and then make a decision whether they are worthy to believe or not, after all… this business will have some good amount of money circulation so he needs some good/loyal people by his side

As for how he will win their loyalty, well it depends on person to person and we will see it in the future

Right now, what he is worried about is that he can't move freely

Those spies that are around him just won't leave him for a second and the only place he is free, is his home

One thing that he knows so far about those spies is that they are not super active and only follow him, not the servants or Han Yachun

Also, there is no way that those spies are sent by the emperor to keep an eye on him as, if he really cared about him he should have taken Hao Jiazhi from this place to the capital city where all of his brother and sister lives

So, who is the one that is keeping an eye on him?

Hao Jiazhi tried to rack his brain and look into the past memories of the old Hao Jiazhi but it is quite hazy, so it's no use

Leaving that matter aside, Hao Jiazhi is much more concerned about his own future as he still doesn't have any power in his hand

And the more he waits, his desire for power and money just keeps on increasing more and more which gives him fear as he may make a mistake and make his enemy (the person who has put spies on him) aware of his big plans

So, all he could do right now is to wait for some god sent opportunity where he would be able to meet some few strong men's

2nd week

Finally the day Hao Jiazhi had been waiting for so long has come

*fighting noise*

"hmm… what is this noise?" Hao Jiazhi asked Han Yachun as he held a brush in his hand

He is writing something

"I'll see" Han Yachun said and left the room to check what is going outside

After a minute or so, she came and told him what is going on

It seems like his guards and sum local thugs were fighting but before things go out of hands, the local officer get into the scene and are arresting them right now

Also, know what the fight was for

"Thugs…"

Hao Jiazhi suddenly got on an idea as something got inside his mind, something really evil

He then asked about the number of people who pick a fight with his guards, after all, no thug fights alone

"They were 4 people" Han Yachun replied

Hao Jiazhi gave a small smile as he knew that this is the perfect moment for him

He stands up and left his room to look at those thugs

Outside the mansion-

2 officers had tied a rope around the hands of 4 men

The officers were in red dress and had metal plates around their chest, also they were holding Dagger-axe spear with them

"You have committed these crimes so you will be punished, Come with us"

The officers told those 4 men about the crime they committed and was about to take them away to the local in-charge, but they were stopped by Hao Jiazhi

"Officers, there is no need to take them with you. They dare to hurt my guards so I should be the one to punish them" Hao Jiazhi said to the officers as he makes his appearance in a white hanfu dress with a golden shawl around his shoulders

From his looks anyone could tell that he is some big shot, so they didn't say anything unnecessary and asked who he is

Han Yachun steps in front and said "he is the 4th prince of our great emperor"

Knowing that the person in front of them is royalty, the officers bowed their head and paid respect which was very well-liked by Hao Jiazhi as it was his first time seeing people bow to him in this world

With a smile, Hai Jiazhi said "they have hurt my guards and disrupted my study time, so I should be the one to punish them"

He then walked near the officer and then handed them a small pouch which had 1000 ban liang coins in it

Then he whispered, "This is for the great work you are doing for us all"

Both officers were happy and gave a smile, after all the pay of this officer is only around 150 ban liang and here they are having 1000 for just handing 4 people to the person who will punch them personally

It was a fair deal where both parties will benefit, so the officers smiled and said "well, if 4th prince want to punish these criminals by himself, then who are we to stop you"

And then they gave the rope, which is tied around those 4 men, to the 2 guards of Hao Jiazhi and then left the place

For the civilians, it was their everyday thing to see officers being bribed so they didn't pay any attention and get back to their works

As for the 4 men, they were just glaring at Hao Jiazhi and really hated him to the core but little did they know that those eyes that they are using to glare at Hao Jiazhi soon will be full of fear

Nighttime-

The spies that keep their eyes on Hao Jiazhi are only vulnerable at night time as they know that Hao Jiazhi only sleeps at night so, they don't really keep an eye on his house during night time

As for the servants, Hao Jiazhi has announced a small 2 day holidays for them and right now, only Hao Jiazhi, Han Yachun, 2 guards, and also 4 men are inside the whole mansion

He called his guards to the storage room, where those 4 men are being tied, as the doors of the mansion close

Storage room-

"Fuck you all, I am not going to ask for forgiveness to some royalty"

"Hey, bitch wanna suck my Dic*"

"What are you looking at?"

All 4 men's are saying something one after another as they saw 2 guards and Han Yachun came inside the room

Finally, Hao Jiazhi enters the room

"Hello everyone" Hao Jiazhi said with a big smile

*spit*

One of 4 men spit his saliva on the dress of Hao Jiazhi

"YOU!!!"

Both guards became angry and wanted to punch the person who had spit on Hao Jiazhi's dress but they were stopped by Hao Jiazhi

"Seems like you hate me… Ok. But I have an offer for you people so I'll overlook this thing" Hao Jiazhi said with a fake smile as he is really angry

"Shut up you sassy boy" the same man who had spit on Hao Jiazhi gave a comment

And Hao Jiazhi's anger finally snapped

All 4 of them are laughing out loudly

"Guards, open this guy's mouth for a minute" Hao Jiazhi told his guards

The guards followed his command and forcefully opened his mouth (the person who spit)

Because all 4 of them are being tied to the pillars, they can't do anything

But for some reason, all 4 of them knew that something worst is going to happen.

Hao Jiazhi took his 2 hands out of his back and there they all saw 2 knifes

One was a bread knife, a very sharp one, and the other one was a cleaver, a broad knifes used to cut bones

The person who's mouth is open knew that something really worst is going to happen

"Oye, what are you doing?" a person said out of the 3

Hao Jazhi smiled and asked "Stay silent or you will be next"

*gulp*

All 3 other men gulped their saliva

Hao Jiazhi moved his step forward with a small bread knife and then he puts the knife inside the mouth of the person who was being cocky

*rustling noise*

The person tried to move and get himself free but he can't do anything

*blood splash*

*scream*

And then, blood gushed out of his mouth as his tongue fell down on the floor

The man screamed and cried but no matter how badly he wanted to say something, nothing came out of his mouth except his screams

Then Hao Jiazhi looked at the other 3 men and said "now that he is finally silent, let's talk with each other and see if we could help each other "

The 3 men were stunned and didn't know what to speak

They were in deep fear, same goes for the guards and Han Yachun as it was their first time seeing something this bloody

That one action was enough to let everyone know that the person in front of them is not a human but a devil
