"Aunt Yao, how skilled is this shopkeeper Fang? It's not clear to Qiong'er since she has never been in contact with such people. But if our palace allows these people from the world to come and go like a vegetable market, then Qiong'er will Can I still sleep there at night? Qiong'er has just left the palace, has no political enemies, and has not yet had time to make enemies with others."
"But Qiong'er's grandfather, the king of Huaiyang County who had all the power in the world at that time, made a lot of grudges for Qiong'er. Not to mention the civil servants and generals who died at the hands of grandpa, grandpa alone killed the royal family back then. He was so close to being exterminated, and there are quite a few people in the royal family who are eager to eradicate it."
"Those dragons and phoenixes don't think they are fighting for the throne, even if they are brothers, they will kill you to death. But if grandpa, a foreign minister, kills them in rivers of blood, that is absolutely intolerable to them. He was killed by grandpa back then. Naturally, it is impossible for those princes and princes to come looking for help, but their descendants are still there.
"The hatred of killing my father is unbearable in ordinary people, let alone in the Tian family? Now that my grandfather's mausoleum has been laid, these people may not be able to let go of the hatred in their hearts. I, the so-called remnant of Huaiyang, might not be able to tolerate it. He has become the person they hate the most. Over the years, my father has not dug up my grandfather's grave and whipped his body to satisfy their hatred, nor has he gotten rid of us, mother and son."
"Before, Qiong'er lived in the palace. No matter how much these people hated our mother and son, they didn't dare or said they couldn't do anything to us. But now that Qiong'er is out of the palace, with the methods of these people and My ability makes me die inexplicably, it’s simply too easy. Especially now that I’m a powerless scholar.”
"If this Hunyuan hand is a first-rate master, that's fine. I can't accept it if he runs rampant in my house. If he is a second-rate master, or not even a second-rate master, then how can I sleep? Qiong'er When I left the palace, my mother repeatedly asked me not to reveal my martial arts skills unless absolutely necessary."
"And even you can't easily expose the fact that you have martial arts. Because you are always with your mother. If you know martial arts, it will also cause others to doubt your mother. As for those people sent by the prince, I estimate that their skills are second-rate at best, not even second-rate. Once they become elbows and armpits, these people will not be of much use."
"Now, I guess my good brother has spread the news about my life and bloodline. From the first time I met him, I could see from his eyes that he had never forgotten that he was The hatred of grandpa’s confinement. But he will not do it easily by himself, because no matter whether he succeeds or fails, the old man will have some bad thoughts about him. "
"Doing it personally is a loss-making business for him, and he will not do it easily. But if he kills someone with a borrowed knife, and kills me through the hands of those who hated my grandfather so much that they gritted their teeth to avenge me, he will definitely do it. I'm very happy." Upon hearing Chen Yao's rhetorical question, Huang Qiong expressed her concerns directly without any concealment.
Chen Yao, who naturally knew that Huang Qiong's worries were not unfounded, said directly without politeness: "You really think highly of your guards, second-rate? Their skills can be called third-rate, that's it." I'm flattering them. However, don't worry too much, that Hunyuan Shou's skill is barely top-notch in the world."
"Although it can't be compared with Miss, at least it is on par with me. It would be really strange if those idiot guards of yours could catch him. This man was known as loyal and righteous in the past, and he was also well-known in the world. He's just a man. But after so many years, I don't know if he has changed."
"I have never seen him again since I followed the young lady into the palace. In the past twenty years, everything has changed. I don't know if he is the same now as before. The human heart is the most difficult thing to understand in the world." At this point, Chen Yao's tone was filled with indescribable melancholy.
Looking at her sitting on the chair, she had no regrets about accompanying her mother in the cold palace. She stayed there for twenty years and raised her single-handedly. Although Chen Yao's face was still pretty at this time, there were already spots of white hair on her temples. Huang Qiong, who knew what these twenty years meant to a woman, sighed softly and held this woman who was half his mother in his arms.
Although she is nearly forty years old, Chen Yao is still a virgin. Although the man holding him in his arms was raised by him, he was already an adult after all. Although his mind is still a little immature, it is a man's mind after all.
Chen Yao, who was held in Huang Qiong's arms, suddenly turned red and her breathing became slightly short. Although she also knew that Huang Qiong's hug contained more of a strong sense of family affection and had no other meaning in it. But he couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart.
Huang Qiong, who held Chen Yao in his arms, didn't know what Chen Yao was thinking at this moment. After letting go of his hand, he looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and sighed: "Aunt Yao, you have paid too much for our mother and son. No one has the right to stop you from finding your own happiness. "
"Qiong'er doesn't know what happened to you before. But Qiong'er can see that you have a good impression of that Hunyuan hand. Aunt Yao, if you feel that he is still the same person before, there is no change. You just Go ahead with peace of mind, you still have to live your own life after all. My mother meant the same thing before I left the palace. She told me that I can’t delay you anymore.”
At this point, Huang Qiong hesitated for a moment before continuing: "Besides, if this person can be trusted, he will also be a help to me. Moreover, Qiong'er is now with you, and you are the only close friend who can't live without you. . What do you think about letting him enter our palace?"
"I can rest assured that you will be fully responsible for the internal affairs of the palace. But for the external affairs, I have no one to use now. Although Li Hai looks at it now, he is still considerate. , it is inconvenient for him to do many things as an eunuch."
"For these eunuchs, I still can't believe it, and it's hard to win them over. They know very well that even though I have made a county king, it seems okay on the surface. But in fact, I am still ostracized in the eyes of the emperor, and I was deliberately suppressed in terms of titles."
"Other princes of my age have already been promoted to princes. An eighteen-year-old county prince is still the biological son of the emperor. Other princes were promoted to princes at the age of thirteen, but I am still just a county prince at this age. . In addition to showing that the emperor does not want to see him, there will be no other ideas in the eyes of these people."
"These people are all human beings. If they follow me, they will most likely end up in the royal palace of the vassal. They may even end up with the title of a county prince when they grow old. When I become a vassal, who will I not be promoted to? What can I say to him? And among the civil and military officials and nobles of the entire dynasty, because of my grandfather, I am afraid that none of them will speak for me."
"In the eyes of these people, I have no connection with the throne. Even when the prince comes to the throne, it is not clear whether I can save my life. Not to mention enjoying the glory and wealth with me, maybe I will be implicated. The eunuch himself is greedy. How can a person who values wealth and profit really serve me if he follows a hopeless master like me? Not many people are willing to burn a cold stove."
"I'm afraid that when these people were selected to come to my Hejian County Prince's Mansion, they probably thought they were sent here. These people are trying to win over. At the very least, even if they can't really work for me, they definitely can't cause trouble for me. Although I know it is difficult, because no one among them knows whether there is any spy from the emperor or other people in the palace."
"But no matter how difficult it is, you have to do it. These people often fail to succeed, but they are very good at ruining things. Especially now that my life and death are still in the hands of the emperor or even the prince, I have to be more cautious in some aspects. These people are always If you submit a small report, I might die without knowing how. Even if these eunuchs are in trouble, they have to find a way to get them back. This is one of them."
"One is to make full use of the so-called grace that the emperor allowed me to find some family members, and find some people who can be used by me. In addition to gradually replacing the princes in the house. The other reason is that at a critical moment It can be used when the time comes, at least it can replace those guards who are like idiots."
Chen Yao understood the meaning of Huang Qiong's words. After just a slight hesitation, Chen Yao gently shook her head: "Your idea is good, but I'm afraid it is difficult. First of all, these people in the world are used to being wild, and no one wants to enter the palace and be restrained. Because Entering a place like this means they have lost their freedom.”
"Although they have learned literary and martial arts and sold them to the emperor's family, few real masters are willing to serve the imperial court. And those who are willing to come, I am afraid that their skills will not be that high. Although many people in the world regard themselves as reckless , but we all know that sometimes the price to pay for interfering with the Tian family is too high. Real aristocratic families, big gates, and big sects are not willing to get involved."
"Of course it's not impossible at all, but I'm afraid you can't recruit such people. Those people's eyes are all fixed on the emperor and the prince, and at the worst, they will also focus on the princes. You are right about one thing. , Nowadays, everyone is willing to put the icing on the cake, and few people are willing to burn the cold stove."
At this point, Chen Yao suddenly realized that what this kid meant was that he wanted to betray his lust and seduce the Hunyuan hand to work for him. Thinking of this, Chen Yao could not help but feel dizzy. She spat at Huang Qiong and said, "You and that guy Yong Wang have learned so badly that your ideas have become so dirty. You actually asked your Aunt Yao to show off your looks and work for you. To seduce people.”
Huang Qiong and Chen Yao spat, and their faces turned red after being exposed. Then I felt that although Aunt Yao didn't mean nothing to that guy, what she said was too straightforward. Even though it was a matter of mutual benefit, by saying this, wouldn't it mean that Aunt Yao would use her color to seduce the Hunyuan hand?
Thinking of this, Huang Qiong couldn't help but look at Chen Yao awkwardly. Just this look, Chen Yao's appearance at this moment almost made Huang Qiong dizzy. Huang Qiong knew that Chen Yao was very beautiful, but at this moment, Chen Yao, whose face was flushed, charming, angry and charming, made Huang Qiong know for the first time that her Aunt Yao was actually like this. of charming.
Looking at the mature and charming woman in front of him, Huang Qiong couldn't help but feel confused. Due to psychological and physical reasons, I have not known romance for more than ten years. Once the restrictions in certain aspects are opened, it is difficult to control Huang Qiong. He grabbed Chen Yao's hand, held Chen Yao in his arms again, opened his mouth and kissed Chen Yao's small mouth.
