Huang Qiong, who was about to return to Tingxue Xuan, did not expect that as soon as he turned around, he was startled by a head that suddenly appeared behind a rockery outside Wende Hall. After taking a closer look, I realized that he had left Wende Hall long ago. He should have been hiding behind the rockery until he saw King Yong who appeared after the prince left.
Seeing something rubbing against his face, King Yong, who was black and white, kept waving to him. Although he was very tired, Huang Qiong could only shake his head and smile bitterly. For the brother Yong Wang, although the contact time was not long, he still had a good impression.
"Well, it's very tiring to talk to this smiling tiger. This guy is very scheming. The more he hates someone in his heart, the more affectionate he will be towards someone. There are quite a few of our brothers who have taken advantage of him. Can you? You need to give him some credit. This person is very narrow-minded, and he is the kind of person who must retaliate for his flaws. If you accidentally offend him, he will find ways to retaliate against you."
Seeing Huang Qiong approaching, King Yong pulled him behind the rockery. He looked around and saw that no one noticed him, then lowered his voice and warned Huang Qiong in a low voice that he must mention the prince more often. Let's not talk about his true intention of reminding Huang Qiong, but being able to say these words was enough to warm the heart of Huang Qiong who had just finished his relationship with the emperor and the prince.
Huang Qiong cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, Brother Yongwang, for reminding me. I will definitely pay more attention to it in the future. And what happened this morning is not something I deliberately concealed. It's true that I didn't know that my father treated me like this at the time. It’s inconvenient to inform you, but please forgive me, Brother Yong Wang.”
"Come on, I'm not as narrow-minded as you think. Also, don't always call me King Yong or King Yong. I am the seventh among our brothers, so you can just call me Seventh Brother from now on. But because of my personality The reason is that brothers prefer to call me Qili. You can call me Qi Ge or Qili if you want, but don’t call me Yongwang."
Having said this, King Yong scratched his scalp out of habit: "How about it? When the old man brought you out of the cold palace this time, did he let you leave the palace and live in the palace? Did he make you a king? Didn't he get you engaged by the way? , let you be as unlucky as me and become the victim of the old man's attempt to win over his subordinates."
"Brother Duolao is worried about me. He is telling me that my father called me here this time just to leave the palace and live in the palace. My father gave me the title of Prince of Hejian County, and also included the original Prince Teng's Mansion. I gave my younger brother a mansion as a reward." After hearing King Yong's question, Huang Qiong didn't hide anything.
"No way, why is the old man so stingy this time? According to your age, you should be crowned a prince directly. Why did you give a county prince the title? Forget it, the old man's power is unpredictable, and his behavior has become even more mysterious in the past two years. It’s unpredictable. Only us sons will be unlucky if we guess too much. So let’s not guess, because we can’t guess anyway.”
His Royal Highness Yong Wang is really unscrupulous in his words. It is normal to say that the power of God is unpredictable in the front, but the gods and ghosts in the back are unpredictable. How can any son say that to me? This means that when he met Huang Qiong, who had a crush on him, if anyone else didn't have to stab the old man, even if he stabbed Yushitai, who was always looking for trouble, it would be enough for him to drink a pot.
However, this Yongwang's mood came quickly and went away quickly. After complaining for a while, regardless of whether the person wanted it or not, he came up and put his arm around Huang Qiong's shoulders and said: "Never mind whether he is a prince or a county king, even if he is a little Lieutenant of Fengguo, you are still the best." Escaped from that prison. Let’s go, my brother is treating me today, let’s go to my place to have a drink and admire the beautiful women.”
"Damn, what's this? Brothers haven't recognized each other for more than ten years. This thing happened in the Tian family. If it were placed in ordinary people's homes, and the brothers slept in the same bed before they got married, how could it happen? This kind of thing? Come on, go to my place for a few drinks to celebrate the reunion of you and me as brothers."
Seeing that King Yong wanted to take her to drink, Huang Qiong quickly evaded: "I have thanked Brother Qi for his kindness. I am about to leave the palace, and there are only a few days left to reunite with my mother. I want to before leaving the palace, Spend more time with my mother. After my younger brother officially leaves the palace, I will entertain all my brothers in my new residence. How about you wish me a happy housewarming?"
Huang Qiong was really interested in getting to know the seventh brother, who seemed to be straight-tempered, but he just refused the prince's invitation and went to the seventh brother's banquet, which somewhat made the prince unable to come to the stage. I'm afraid that the prince, who is indeed not very broad-minded when I meet him today, may become suspicious again. Besides, he was about to leave the palace, so he should spend more time with his mother.
"Since Ninth Brother has something to do, I won't force you. But let's agree first that we will have a big drink on the day you leave. Brother, I haven't thanked you for your help today. If you hadn't spoken upright today and the old man had given you face, I wouldn't have known how long I would have to kneel."
"Wende Palace is just a name. In fact, the ground is very cold. Even if I tie this thing on my leg, it won't have any effect. If it weren't for you today, I would have suffered a lot." At this point, King Yong lifted the hem of his robe, revealing two kneepads made of tiger skin tied to his knees.
Seeing the knee pads on his legs, Huang Qiong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This guy seems to have been punished with experience. But for Huang Qiong's wry smile, King Yong didn't take it seriously and said: "Okay, I won't stay any longer. This is not the place for me to stay. I'll leave first. Also, my legs are tied You must never tell anyone about the knee pads."
After saying that, he cupped his hands and disappeared without waiting for Huang Qiong's reply. This guy ran faster than a rabbit, so Huang Qiong didn't even have time to say goodbye. She could only look at his back with a silent smile. After sending King Yong away, Huang Qiong did not stay here much longer. Then under the guidance of a eunuch, he returned to Ting Xuexuan.
The Eunuch Gao who went to read the imperial edict to Huang Qiong was indeed a well-rounded man. Huang Qiong, who had never taken a single step towards Ting Xuexuan since he was born, definitely didn't know the way back. The palace is so large that people who are not familiar with it can easily get lost.
So when Huang Qiong met the Holy Spirit, people had already been arranged to wait for Huang Qiong. The eunuch he arranged was also quite discerning. When Huang Qiong was talking to King Yong, he stayed far away. It wasn't until King Yong left that he appeared and respectfully sent Huang Qiong back to Ting Xuexuan. Although he was a little tired, Huang Qiong still had a good impression of the eunuch named Li Hai.
When Huang Qiong returned to Tingxue Xuan, she found that the books she usually read and a few clothes had been packed. Looking at the neatly packed clothes and books in front of her, Huang Qiong looked at her mother in astonishment and asked in confusion: "Mother, what are you doing?"
"If I'm not wrong, your father has brought you here for the first time to get you out of the palace. You are old, and according to the so-called ancestral system of the Huang family, you have already passed the age of leaving the palace. Even if he doesn’t remember you coming, the jade plate where you were born is still in Zongzheng Temple, and they don’t dare to forget it.”
"You have grown up. If you continue to be eighteen years old in this harem, how can those old clan members of Zongzheng Temple be relieved? There are always a lot of troubles in the harem. If nothing happens, just pay it back. What's wrong with this? They can't eat anymore and walk away. That's why there is such an incident today."
"Besides, you are already eighteen years old now, and you are considered an adult in both ordinary people's and Tian's families. Several of your uncles are at your age and have followed your grandfather to fight on the battlefield. You have been with me since you were a child. Although living here in Tingxuexuan is a bit lonely, the wall outside Tingxuexuan also blocks the wind and rain outside."
"The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, and the sharp edge of the sword comes from sharpening. If a person is not beaten, he will never truly grow up. You are already eighteen years old, and it is time to experience the ups and downs outside. What's more, sooner or later, you will be You want to get a wife and have children. What’s the point of living here in peace for the rest of your life?”
Having said this, the mother stood up and looked at the wall outside Ting Xuexuan's yard. After being silent for a long time, he continued: "Over the years, I have taught you everything I can teach you. As for how to take your path after leaving the palace, you can only rely on yourself to understand. Can you go there? What kind of degree you have depends on your own luck."
"However, although you are smart, you grew up with me in this cold palace. Even when you left the palace to practice martial arts, you never lived alone without me. There are too many inexplicable things in the vast world outside. . This time I asked your Aunt Yao to accompany you out of the palace to take care of you, which can be regarded as my last worry."
"But one thing you have to remember is that you must not let you know easily that you know kung fu. You are not allowed to use it until a life or death situation, and you are not allowed to rely on power and kung fu to bully the weak. If I know what evil you have done, your I taught you kung fu, so I can naturally take it back."
It was the first time since he first came into contact with this mother when he was three years old that his mother spoke to him in such a stern tone. Huang Qiong quickly bowed and said, "Mom, please rest assured. My son has been taught by his mother since he was a child. He will definitely not dare to do anything that violates morality and etiquette. He will not do anything that is conscientious and has been taught by his mother."
"It's just mother. I heard that there are only three of us in Xuexuan. Now my son has been ordered to leave the palace. If Aunt Yao follows her son out of the palace again, my mother will not have anyone to talk to, and she will be even more lonely and lonely. Now that the son has left the palace to live, the father can’t just throw the son out of the palace to fend for himself without sending anyone.”
"Since he moved his son out of the palace and opened a new mansion in accordance with the ancestral system, my son thinks that he should also send someone to take care of his son. You have lived with Aunt Yao for such a long time, and my son thinks it is better to stay in the palace with you. Okay. My son is really not at ease if you leave yourself here."
"You have lived with me in this small world since you were a child, and have rarely had contact with outsiders. Although the world outside is vast, it is also full of difficulties and dangers. I still understand your character, and there is not much. Worried. But none of your brothers is a good person. It can be said that the children of the Tian family have learned to scheming from birth. "
"You may not be able to do much on the surface, but there are many people who are behind the scenes. Although you have your own opinions on things in books, you still have too little exposure to the dark side in real life. As the saying goes, it is better to believe in books than to have no books at all, but reality is still different from what is in books.”
