Chapter 1378 The hidden danger of Ouyang's family (2)
Ouyang Bo left the Hou Mansion by car. When the carriage left the street where the Hou Mansion was located, a tall city defense army commander led a group of people to greet him.
"Get in the car." Ouyang Bo opened the window and said two words, then closed it.
The commander jumped off his horse, bowed and squeezed into the car, and asked: "Father, do you need to gather troops and horses?"
"What do you want to do? Rebellion? Do you know the consequences of seizing the title by force?" The uncompromising momentum returned to Ouyang Bo, and the humility he had shown when he faced He Ji disappeared without a trace.
"My child is stupid, my child is ignorant." The commander squatted next to Ouyang Bo like a child.
"There will be endless wars!
As soon as the troops and horses move, the whole city will know it. No matter how we hide it, no one will think that the master voluntarily handed over the title to us!
Today we can use force to replace our direct descendants. In the future, other collateral descendants will follow our example and replace us with force. Do you dare to guarantee that the tragedy of our master's family will not happen to our descendants?
How many side clans in the world are thinking about replacing the main family day and night? But they don't dare to take risks and use force. In addition to worrying about future events, they are also worried that the Senate will support other nobles in declaring war to maintain orthodoxy.
Take the Zhao family for example. Although they support us from behind to replace the main family, as long as we use force, the Zhao family will be the first to declare war on us! They can use Ouyang Heng's marriage as an excuse to avenge the main family. "
The commander was sweating profusely after hearing this. How could he understand this when he spent most of his time in the military camp.
"Now that something happened to Ouyang Heng, no matter how it is spread outside, whether she lost her virginity to Zhao Zhengzhang or Ding Kui, it will be a stain on her. We have an excuse to hold a clan meeting and announce that she is disqualified from inheriting the title." Ouyang Bo said.
At this point, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
When a foreign princess arrives, the Marquis Mansion inevitably holds a welcome dinner. However, the location of today's dinner is very special. It is held at the "Liu Fang Garden" where Shao Dian Luan and Ding Kui temporarily stayed.
Ouyang Heng personally selected a group of maids and servants to serve her, and even the maids who were originally with He Ji were replaced by her.
He Ji, who looked tired, came back to entertain the guests: "Hey, I made your highness, the consort and Lord Feng laugh."
"Every family has people who are difficult to manage." Ding Kui did not say the "hard-to-recite sutra", "Which noble family does not have collaterals with ulterior motives? Our country is in so much chaos just because of the seizure of the heir, and the royal family has not been able to solve it.
Not to mention the Marquis."
"That's different. Miss Ouyang is the only direct descendant." Shao Dianluan began to sympathize with Ouyang Heng.
He Ji put down her bowls and chopsticks and said: "Originally, it was not appropriate to spread the word about family scandals, but now we can no longer hide it from others, so I shamelessly tell everyone about it.
The clan elder who just arrived is the same generation as Heng'er. His grandfather is the elder brother of the late Marquis. Originally, his grandfather was the most promising to inherit the title, but he died in the war so that the Marquis could inherit the title.
.
From the beginning, the old marquis had given them preferential treatment, not only giving them some properties but also entrusting them with important responsibilities. The city defense army and the Public Security Department were all handed over to them, and even the guards in the palace used their people.
My late husband and I were usually very polite to them, treating them completely as our own, and so far they had never said a harsh word.
Alas, what a pity! We were mistaken."
She didn't say a bad word about Ouyang Bo. Finally, she changed the subject and asked, "Master Feng, when will the rest of the mission arrive?"
"If there is no delay on the way, we can arrive at noon tomorrow at the earliest. If my wife needs it, I have some friends in the military who can bring a team over to conduct exercises." Feng Run also has connections in the military.
"The military people are too far away, so they will definitely not be used this time. I just don't want them to collide with the princess and the consort."
Ding Kui interrupted He Ji: "I'm not exaggerating. This city can't trap a few of us. Madam, there is no need to worry about us. I can help you control evil if necessary."
"I'm not afraid of your jokes. There are rumors outside that the princess forced her to throw herself into the river after breaking up her secret meeting with her consort. Then the consort rescued her. In order to cover up the scandal between herself and her consort, the princess deliberately slandered and was raped by Zhao Gang.
If the consort takes action on our behalf, it will only be true for the rumors, and I will fight to my death to prevent them from confusing right and wrong." He Ji reluctantly told the news brought by Ouyang Bo.
"How ruthless!" Zeng Jian analyzed under the encouragement of Ding Kui's eyes, "This rumor is full of loopholes, but it has explosive points. It is very consistent with the curiosity-seeking mentality of busybodies and is extremely contagious.
A beautiful lady, a handsome consort and a noble princess, these three points are enough to arouse everyone's curiosity. Even if we tell the truth right away, a considerable number of people will be willing to believe the rumors.
The person who set up this game was a master. He connected one link tightly and was not afraid of disconnection between the links. I believe he had backup links to reconnect."
The more he thought about it, the more his brain ran out of energy.
"What?" Ouyang Heng's face suddenly turned pale, "How could this happen? Who did I offend? Why do you have to force me to a dead end?"
He Ji leaned over and hugged her daughter, comforting her and saying, "My poor son! They came for the Ouyang family's title. You did nothing wrong! If I have to say one thing, I can only say that you shouldn't be my daughter."
.”
"No!" Ouyang Heng burst into tears, but this time he was strong and did not cry out, "I am the happiest to be your daughter! My daughter accidentally fell into Zhao Gang's trick, and she is willing to give up her title to an outstanding person.
The descendants of common people."
She felt that she was not worthy to inherit Zhulanghou.
"To tarnish my reputation and get the title of Marquis of Lang, this is indeed a clever plan!" Ding Kui had to admire him. "By the way, it also ruined Brother Feng's face. Maybe you will be charged with helping me have a secret meeting with Miss Ouyang."
"
"Fuck!" Feng Run slapped the table, knocking over half of the bowls and chopsticks. After all, he was born in the military, and his temper was still hot.
"I will never spare the person who designed it lightly!" the former commander of the Fifth Northern Army Corps was so angry that he forgot his identity.
"But we first have to find the person behind the scenes." Liang Chong jumped out and poured cold water on everyone, asking everyone to calm down.
"Who is the beneficiary?" A name popped up in Ding Kui's mind, and he turned to look at Shaodian Luan.
"Why are you looking at me? I am also a victim." Shao Dianluan was very upset when her husband looked at her.
"The prince-in-law is not doubting Ji Man, is he?" Liang Chong understood Ding Kui's thoughts quite well.
"Prince Man?" He Ji was surprised.
"Yes, back then he encouraged the Le family and the Gong family to attack my territory. As a result, I severely damaged the two coalition forces. He is the one who wants my reputation to be disgraced the most! He can also help his confidants to seek the title of Zhulanghou, regardless of whether he can inherit it in the future.
For the throne, it will definitely be beneficial to have the support of a noble with a military background." Ding Kui said bluntly.
Liang Chong added: "Besides, Jiman is backed by the Queen, who has the ability to command the Zhao family, and is not afraid of offending Lord Feng."
"But I am sent as an envoy on the order of the queen, right? Prince Man has to take the queen's face into consideration, right?" Feng Run couldn't believe it.
"Judging from the results, there is more than one beneficiary, right?" Zeng Jian interjected.
Bang, Ding Kui high-fived and said: "That's right! I always limited myself to this before. The beneficiary is not just one person. This matter is probably a joint plan of several parties. My guess is not bold enough."
Shaodian Luan suddenly widened his eyes and said, "Not bold enough? No way!"
"Why not? My aunt can pretend not to know, but actually control the whole situation and fuel the situation behind the scenes. Don't forget why she invited us.
I made a lot of preparations before negotiating with Lou Xiao in order to guide the direction of the negotiation, but now she can put me in a disadvantageous situation and then help me out."
Ding Kui didn't express his thoughts, he just smiled lightly and said, "I'm just kidding." Shao Diangluan curled his lips, obviously not believing his explanation.
"No! The Ouyang family has lived and died for the kingdom. How could your Majesty treat us like this?" He Ji misunderstood.
She thought more boldly for Ding Kui and actually contacted the king of her country.
"The king will not suppress the Feng family." Feng Run was convinced that the king knew the Feng family's backstage.
"Your joke is not funny!" Liang Chong came to Ding Kui's rescue, "We can ignore the beneficiaries for now, we always have to face the problem of how to solve the situation. Zeng Jian, is there no solution to that rumor?"
"I don't know." Zeng Jian touched his nose.
"What did Mr. Fei teach you?" Ding Kui knew Zeng Jian's habit. Touching his nose meant he was unsure.
"The teacher said that the most effective way to deal with such rumors is to create more violent rumors." Zeng Jian answered honestly.
"High!" Liang Chong's eyes lit up, "This method can be used."
"But I can't think of any rumor that is more powerful." Zeng Jian has been thinking about this issue.
He Ji faced Liang Chong and asked, "What idea does this gentleman have in mind?"
"My father, Shaodian Kingdom Tianjihou Lianggong." Liang Chong first announced his family status.
"Ah, you are a good young master. I was neglectful earlier."
Ding Kui did not introduce his entourage in detail, so He Ji knew that the young man in front of her had a high background.
"Ouyang Heng has met Brother Liang Chong." Ouyang Heng stood up and saluted Liang Chong.
Tianjihou and Zhulanghou are both of the same rank. The Liang family and the Ouyang family cannot tell who is superior and who is inferior. Liang Chong's status is the same as that of Ouyang Heng, but he is a junior in front of He Ji.
Liang Chong returned the gift and continued: "What do people here care about most? Is Miss Ouyang's romantic affair better than Zhulanghou's belonging? In fact, what we are going to make up is not a rumor, it is just to process Ouyang Bo's behavior and make him
The collusion between Zhao Gang and Miss Ouyang was made public, and their plan to seize the title was revealed, and then the hero consort saved the beauty, the princess and the lady became sworn brothers, and then..."
The people next to him listened intently, and he was the only one talking at the table.
"That's it, it should be able to hedge against the previous rumor." He said with a dry mouth, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Zeng Jian, who was standing next to him, said awkwardly: "That glass of wine is mine."
Poof! The drink sprayed all over Zeng Jian’s face.
He Ji personally picked up the wine pot and poured a full glass for Liangchong. "Master Liang, please drink from this cup." She picked up the wine glass with both hands.
