Even if the prince is willing, he, a powerless scholar, can die a thousand times without being able to find out who did it. If you can't even guarantee the safety of your family now and in the future, how can you talk about anything else now? If he could make the prince jump over the wall and clear out his mansion in as short a time as possible, that would be the most important thing for him to do at the moment.
What Huang Qiong knew even more was that the enemy in front of him was definitely not the prince alone. Not only the people in his own house, but no one came with other intentions. There were countless pairs of eyes staring at him around his mansion. Among them, except for the emperor and the prince, the other kings, whether they are vassal or not, probably have informants.
Even if some masters in the palace who have given birth to princes are unable to place people around themselves, they may not have the capital to place people around their residences. Huang Qiong knew the balancing act adopted by the old man in order to regain power, and selected a group of concubines from the female relatives of the officials of the current dynasty to enter the palace. Currently, there are quite a few concubines in the palace who are quite powerful.
The background of this prince who suddenly appeared was so complicated. Although the princes born from these concubines may not know the situation back then. But these concubines themselves, or their fathers and brothers were all parties involved in what happened back then. How could anyone not be fully aware of what happened back then?
Compassion does not lead the army, and kindness does not serve as an official. Whether those people were really loyal to their emperor, they saw the general trend and voluntarily submitted, or they changed their ways to ensure the family's power. Among these people, there are probably not a few who regard themselves as a remnant of Huaiyang as a threat, or simply a thorn in their side, and are worried about their comeback.
He leaves the palace and lives in his own house, even if he only has the title of a county king at the moment. But in the eyes of some people with ulterior motives, their very existence is a threat. How could the former Tang Taizong's son Wu King Li Ke really pose a threat to Tang Gaozong's throne? However, he was shrewd and capable, which aroused the desire of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty to establish a heir apparent.
Because he is the grandson of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, he has aroused the suspicion of the entire Guanlong Group, which has become a new powerful group in the world through the change of dynasties. They were afraid that if he ascended the throne, he would take back the benefits they had already obtained. An obvious false accusation killed Tang Taizong's wisest son, who was also the most like him.
Without the efforts of the entire Guanlong Group behind him, Changsun Wuji alone, even if he was the direct uncle of Tang Gaozong, single-handedly supported Tang Gaozong to the throne. How could he really kill Tang Taizong's most shrewd and capable son, Tang Gaozong's biological brother, on a trumped-up charge?
Those who benefited from the Huaiyang Incident probably have the same thoughts now as those of the Guanlong Group who single-handedly assisted the Li family in conquering the former Tang Dynasty at the end of the Tang Taizong Dynasty. Even if they are not favored, as long as they are alive, they are worried that they will make a comeback at any time, thus threatening the interests of their entire group or family.
Finding an excuse to get rid of yourself will make them feel completely at ease. What he has to face is not only the revenge of the prince, the kings and the clan, but also the forces hidden under the water. Cutting weeds without eradicating the roots, they will grow again when the spring breeze blows. This is what these people have in mind. Being cautious on your own will not really protect you. Huang Qiong knew this in his heart.
To get rid of someone for profit, sometimes you need an excuse, but more often than not, you don't need an excuse. Now that I can't even guarantee my personal safety, how can I relieve the worries of the people in the world? Cultivate oneself, manage one's family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world. Thinking of the so-called saint's words, Huang Qiong could only smile helplessly.
The people of Qin had no time to grieve themselves, and later generations mourned for them. Later generations mourned without taking notice of it, which also made future generations mourn for their descendants again. I don't want to make the same mistake as King Wu Li Ke. The most urgent thing now is to solve the problems around me first. As for the general trend of the world, before I clear my family, even if I have the intention, I don't have the power.
Huang Qiong is a little worried about the current general trend of the world. However, Huang Qiong didn't take it too seriously about the friends Jia Quan had just mentioned in the officialdom. These people have all been sitting on the bench for many years. It’s hard to say that there are not many people who are not extreme in mentality, but definitely not many.
Moreover, given that this dynasty attaches great importance to officials with Jinshi origins, these people can still sit on the bench for many years. This has more or less flaws in their character. I'm afraid I can't generalize them all by saying that I am proud of my talents. The reason why Jia Quan was able to make friends with them was probably because their mentality was similar.
I'm afraid most of these people can't escape at least one extreme assessment. These people can use it if they can, but it doesn't matter if they can't. But what Jia Quan said is right. Although these people are neither high-ranking nor powerful, their characters have flaws of one kind or another. But one good thing is that you are well-informed. If possible, try to win over as many people as possible.
Thinking of this, the rosary in Huang Qiong's hand turned around a few times. After a moment of hesitation, he put down the rosary in his hand and came to Chen Yao's door. Just standing outside the door, looking at the candlelight from the window of Chen Yao's house, Huang Qiong suddenly remembered the beautiful scenery that night, and suddenly felt unnatural on her face. For a moment, he hesitated outside Chen Yao's door.
In the past few days, Huang Qiong had been avoiding Chen Yao intentionally or unintentionally. Although Huang Qiong also knew that some things could not be avoided by simply hiding. But after that night, when Huang Qiong faced Chen Yao, she felt that her feelings towards this person who was both mother and sister had somewhat changed.
That night was beautiful, although I barely managed to stop the car at the last moment. But the scenery that night made it difficult for Huang Qiong to forget it in a short time. Except for the unrealized ecstasy, he did almost everything any couple would do to Chen Yao. The warm and smooth feeling in his hands at that time was something he could never forget to this day.
Huang Qiong, who was afraid that Chen Yao would be hurt if they met again, finally chose to put on an ostrich posture. However, it can be said that Chen Yao, who has taken care of him for more than ten years, cannot see his thoughts. After that night, Huang Qiong was not the only one who needed to adjust. Chen Yao also needed to face the relationship between the two people again.
Huang Qiong has not left the study in the past few days, obviously showing off his ostrich posture, but Chen Yao has always been thinking about him. But Chen Yao also didn't know how she should face the child she raised. Therefore, even though he was thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and did not visit Huang Qiong.
This time Huang Qiong was finally willing to face himself, maybe it was because he was much older after all. Although Huang Qiong heard the familiar footsteps as soon as she entered this small courtyard, and she was somewhat panicked, even confused, but she still adjusted her mentality in the shortest time.
Just when I was walking around in the yard, like grinding, but I still didn't have the courage to knock on the door. Thinking of that night, Chen Yao managed to suppress the redness on her face. Knowing that Huang Qiong was looking for him at this time, he must have something to discuss, so he took the initiative to open the door of his room.
Seeing Chen Yao take the initiative to open the door, Huang Qiong knew that his whereabouts could not be concealed from Chen Yao. The same move he had just made would definitely fall into Chen Yao's eyes. Huang Qiong couldn't help but blush, looking somewhat embarrassed. Fortunately, Chen Yao took the initiative to speak, so his embarrassment did not last long.
However, when Huang Qiong entered the room and Chen Yao spoke, her tone was one-third resentful, one-third lazy and yet gentle. Not only was Huang Qiong shocked, she almost had a nosebleed on the spot, but she was also shocked. This tone is like that of an elder, but it is more or less similar to a resentful woman in a boudoir.
Huang Qiong, who was startled by Chen Yao's charming tone, looked at Chen Yao, who was full of charm and the charm of a mature woman in front of her. Her style was far from comparable to that of the green apple-like maids in the mansion. Huang Qiong spent a lot of effort to stabilize his already somewhat uncontrollable mind.
In order to distract her from being distracted, Huang Qiong went straight to the point: "Aunt Yao, I'm really sorry for disturbing your rest so late. Qiong'er would like to ask, have you been in contact with shopkeeper Fang these days? What does he have in mind now, will he accept my invitation?"
Chen Yao suddenly felt a little disappointed when she heard that Huang Qiong came not specifically to see her. She didn't know what was going on. Looking at the man in front of me who he had brought up by himself, he had transformed from a boy into a man whose appearance, although far from handsome, was still enough to be considered comely.
Chen Yao, who obviously thought she had adjusted her mentality, suddenly remembered the beautiful scenery that night and the strange hot feeling that she had never experienced before. Thinking of that night again, Chen Yao suddenly fell into a state of confusion. It wasn't until Huang Qiong shouted softly that she finally recovered from her daze.
Chen Yao, who raised her head to see Huang Qiong looking at him with a concerned look on her face, woke up from her random thoughts, could not help but blush as if she was about to bleed. He barely suppressed his floating thoughts and said: "Young master, are you a little anxious? This kind of thing cannot be rushed. We have to take care of it slowly."
"There are dogs in front of our door, and there are more than one. In the past few days, whenever I go out, there is a tail following me. For safety, I have not gone to his place. I haven't had time to talk to him about the matter you told me. He talked about it in detail. These people are all veterans. If the young lady and I hadn't traveled around the world and seen a lot of storms, I might have fallen into the hands of these people."
"It's just that I don't know if these people were sent by your emperor, or by your good brother who probably wants to kill you mother and son. But judging from the methods of these people, they are all specially trained The trained spies are not very similar to the people under the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince’s staff may not have such talents.”
"I think it is difficult to find another person in the world who can train such a person, especially a person who is not yet a person. Apart from yamen like Nanbei Zhenfusi, it is difficult to find another person in the world. Of course, it is not excluded that others have already Fan, it is more convenient for him to do things. He was sent by some princes. But I feel that it is more like you, the emperor, sent by me."
"Once you are targeted by these people, not only will Shopkeeper Fang be in trouble, but it will also be difficult for me to really get rid of them without taking action. But once I take action, not only will he further deepen his suspicion of you, It will also affect the safety of the young lady in the palace. The young lady is indeed one of the few masters in the world today, but no matter how skilled the martial arts master is, he cannot stop thousands of troops."
