After hearing that Wanyanxi was still alive and seemed to be doing well, and not as precarious as they imagined, Yang Haocai breathed a sigh of relief and completely let go of the big stone that had been weighing on his heart for many years.
"What was your plan back then? Have you already planned to use Wan Yan Xi to fight against Wan Yan Ping?"
"This is definitely not the case. We all see how much the eldest prince loves his younger brother. If something had not happened, we would not have pushed the little prince out. Doesn't this mean that he has no backbone?"
"Did you rescue Wanyanxi?"
"Yes, it was very difficult for the little prince to leave Yiqing Mansion. The process required many dangers, and several spies died because of it. But we have to do this. The eldest prince's plan, even if He passed away, and those of us have to continue to complete it." Yang Haofan looked at Xue Ruitian and then at Jin Jing, "Now that the little prince is still alive and has made friends with you, I want to share this plan with you. "
"Oh? Share it with us? Why?" Jin Jing looked at Yang Haocai with a half-smile, "We don't really need this plan."
"You certainly don't know as much about Wanyanping as we do, nor are we as detailed as we are. Of course you don't need that plan, but at least you have to know yourself and the enemy so that you can attack your opponent accurately, right? Besides..." Yang Haocai looked at the two of them. , "That relationship is more or less related to several adults. To be precise, it has a lot to do with the matter you are investigating."
"Really?" Xue Ruitian and Jin Jing looked at each other, "Then we are all ears."
"This starts from before the eldest prince was sent to Daxia to be a hostage." Yang Haocai sighed, "Those who know the father and son, Old Jin Wang and the eldest prince, will probably have this impression, that is, the relationship between the two of them. Not so good, the old King Jin has a new favored queen, and seeing that this son is not very pleasing to his eyes, he sent his only eldest son to be a hostage."
"Is not it?"
"Of course not. The reason why we sent the eldest prince away is for refuge."
"Escape?" Xue Ruitian frowned slightly, "Did the eldest prince commit something? He needs to be sent to Daxia."
"It's not like that. He didn't make a mistake. He was just forced by the situation and had to do this." Yang Haocai shook his head gently, "The real culprits are Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyan Ping. It's already obvious that they want to take advantage of the eldest prince. It was written on his face, and it was difficult to pretend not to know. Therefore, the old King Jin and the eldest prince made some calculations, and in order to avoid unpredictable accidents, the eldest prince was sent to Daxia for refuge."
"Unpredictable accident?" Jin Jing frowned, "You mean Wanyan Ping might attack the eldest prince? Doesn't she like him very much?"
"She likes her for sure. She has been attached to the eldest prince since she was a child, following him wherever he goes, like a little tail. But as Wanyanping gets older, this kind of like turns into obsession. It seems that she is bound to win the eldest prince, but..." Yang Haocai sneered, "Compared with power, the eldest prince is nothing. Of course, if the eldest prince can be her help, she is still willing to win. It’s the best of both worlds.”
"I've always had a question." Jin Jing looked at Yang Haocai hesitantly, "They are not biological brothers and sisters, but they are both members of the Wanyan family, and they are connected by blood. Don't they... don't care about this?"
"There is no way, the population is too small, especially the nobles cannot intermarry with the common people, there is no way." Yang Haocai shrugged, "When I first got there, I also felt it was insulting to be polite, but as time went by, I got used to it. Otherwise, there is no need for Daxia and Liao to fight, they will perish on their own."
"That's right." Jin Jing nodded, "The small population is their biggest weakness. So, what does Wanyanping think of the eldest prince being sent to Daxia to be a hostage?"
"She made such a big fuss that she even went to the palace to question Old Jin Wang, but Old Jin Wang didn't see her at all. I heard that she got angry at the gate of the palace, and got furious with Wanyan Zongcheng when she got home."
"Is the relationship between their father and daughter not so good?"
"It's not not very good, it's very bad. If they didn't have the same goal and want to replace the old Jin King, they would never be able to live in peace. Wanyan Ping hates Wanyan Zongcheng so much that she can't wait to If I didn’t have to support Wanyan Zongcheng to ascend to the throne and let Wanyan Zongcheng be the golden king, there is no way Wanyan Zongcheng would be alive today.”
"As for that? After all, Wanyan Zongcheng is also her father, so that's not the case, right?"
"I just heard the eldest prince mention that Wanyan Zongcheng failed Wanyanping's mother, causing her mother's death, which caused her to lose her mother's care and love since she was a child. For Wanyanping, Wanyan Zongcheng is not a father, not a father. Blood relatives are just tools she can use to achieve her own goals." Yang Haocai sighed, "Sometimes, I don't know whether I should feel sorry for Wanyan Zongcheng or pity Wanyan Ping."
"Poor people must be hateful." Jin Jing nodded, "Continue to talk about the eldest prince's plan."
"The eldest prince was sent to Daxia. He was not only accompanied by a few guards, but also secretly brought a group of men. The main purpose of this group of men was to protect the safety of the eldest prince. After all, when Wanyanping went crazy, no one could I don't know what she will do. What if she sends someone to assassinate the eldest prince on Daxia's territory, or kidnaps him on the way!" Seeing Xia Jiu's disbelief, Yang Hao smiled and said, "Later, the eldest prince said that he encountered at least three sneak attacks on his way to Xijing, all of which were sent by Wanyan Ping."
"If you don't get it, you'll destroy it?"
"I don't know." Yang Haocai sneered, "The mind of a madman is the most difficult to guess, and Wanyanping is the madman among madmen. After the eldest prince came to Daxia, he originally wanted to live in peace and stability according to the original plan. I lived a stable life for a year, but I didn't expect that an accident would happen." He looked at Xue Ruitian, "I met Mr. Xue's mother. To the eldest prince, Mr. Xue's mother was like a ray of light, illuminating His originally dark life.”
Xue Ruitian touched his chin, looked at Yang Haocai, raised his chin towards him, and motioned for him to continue speaking.
"But the eldest prince also knows that Mr. Xue's mother is a rare thing for him. It is lucky to meet her, know her, and become a close friend. He dare not even think about asking for marriage."
"He didn't even try, how could he come to this conclusion?"
"I've tried it." Yang Haocai sighed, "Every time, he was scolded miserably. His parents, brothers and sisters told him clearly not to have wishful thinking. If he didn't give up his obsession, even if he was accused by His Majesty, they would be punished.要狠狠的揍他一顿。”他看看薛瑞天,“后来,听说令堂要嫁给令尊,他在离开西京之前,还主动约令尊见了一面。”
"Meeting father? Do you know what they said?"
"I don't know." Yang Haocai shook his head, "I only know that they had a good conversation, and the eldest prince avoided talking about anything else. Mr. Marquis, you have to believe that the eldest prince has no intention of offending your father and mother. On the contrary, he I respect and respect them from the bottom of my heart.”
“Really?”
"This... villain knows this, and knows what they are talking about." Yang Haocai sighed, "The Marquis only bumped into the eldest prince and his father-in-law. In fact, he met his father-in-law and his father-in-law, or rather... Through you two, I will inform the late Emperor of the progress of the plan."
