Seeing Li Chong's aggressive look, Han Qian suddenly felt an inexplicable sadness for his father.
Li Chong grew up in the army with his father and brother in his early years. He was definitely more capable and pragmatic than Feng Yi and Kong Xirong. However, if he knew nothing about the real situation of the hungry people outside the city at that time, he mistakenly thought that his father was today
The purpose of admonishing was to help Shouzhou, so how could one expect Emperor Tianyou, who rarely left the imperial city after the founding of the Chu Kingdom, to truly understand the sufferings of the people and understand his father's true ambition?
Of course, it is impossible for everyone in the court to not understand the true situation of the water bug epidemic spreading among hungry people.
Except for his father, since Jingzhao Mansion had already strictly controlled the entry of hungry people infected with the epidemic into the city, and the dignitaries in the city rarely purchased slaves from hungry people outside the city, it was obvious that most people were very aware of this situation.
Han Qian thought of a sentence in "Guanzi": "If the lower emotions are not connected to the upper level, it is called a blockage." This is a major disadvantage that the dream world will not be able to overcome after thousands of years.
In recent years, Emperor Tianyou, who had been living in palace confinement, did not understand the epidemic situation of the hungry people, and mistakenly believed that his father's advice to drive away the hungry people was to move the hungry people to Shouzhou, so as to help the most core figures of the prince's family to stay in Shouzhou.
It is not difficult to understand why uncle Xu Mingzhen is so powerful that he feels resentful and angry.
This is a joint that Han Qian had not thought of before. In order to prevent his father from writing another letter to anger Emperor Tianyou, he must now throw out the "Epidemic Water Dredging" as soon as possible to convince the third prince and Xinchang Hou to act according to their plan and move the city
The hungry people outside were settled.
However, with Feng Yi and Kong Xirong behind him, he couldn't explain anything to the third prince and Li Chong at this time.
"Today is the winter solstice. Mr. Shen Yang has not recovered from the cold for many days. As students, we should go and visit him." At this time, Yang Yuanpu walked over from the side of the road and said to Guo Rong and Chen De in an unquestionable tone, "
Chen De, hurry up and make arrangements."
When Yang Yuanpu saw Han Qian, Li Chong, Feng Yi and others in the yard, he said without doubt: "You come with me to visit Mr."
Yang Yuanpu rarely left the Linjiang Marquis Mansion, but that did not mean that he should be banned from the Linjiang Marquis Mansion.
Chen De arranged for people to prepare carriages and horses. Han Qian was surprised and suspicious, but he couldn't refuse. He was hungry and could only get on the horse and follow Yang Yuanpu and others to Shen Yang's house.
Lin Haizheng handed him a wheat cake halfway, and the hungry Han Qian devoured it. Only then did he have the energy to think carefully about whether the abnormal attitude of the third prince Yang Yuanpu today was related to his father's admonishment to Emperor Tianyou at the court today.
Shen Yang lives in Ming'an Lane, Dongcheng. Although he is the prince's tutor, he can only be considered a noble person in the court, and Shen's house is also quite simple.
Shen Yang contracted the cold and was coughing. Han Qian and the others rushed over. It happened that the medical officer from the Shang Medical Bureau had received the decree of Emperor Tianyou and rushed over to diagnose and treat Shen Yang. He had just written a prescription and was about to leave.
Yang Yuanpu didn't stay too long in Shen's house. After visiting Shen Yang, he came out of Shen's house, stood in front of the carriage, and said to Li Chong: "I heard that there is good tea in your house, which is more mellow than the collection in the Hou's house. There are also
Great refreshments, can we please come over and have a try?"
"My father has a villa nearby, and there are several jars of good tea hidden there. If His Highness doesn't mind it and isn't in a hurry to return home, you can go there to rest for a while!" Li Chong said.
Seeing Li Chong glance over, Han Qian realized that the third prince insisted on coming out to visit Shen Yang. It turned out that he had negotiated with Li Chong. Seeing that this place is not far from Wuyi Lane where Wanhong Mansion is located, he wondered if the so-called Houfu Courtyard was
It's right next to Wanhong Tower.
Guo Rong did not follow him out, so that Chen De would not disobey Yang Yuanpu's will, and the group of people surrounded Yang Yuanpu and went to Xinchanghou's nearby villa.
As Han Qian expected, Xinchanghou was in a nearby courtyard, just across an alley from Wanhong Mansion. When you look at the courtyard, it doesn't look like mountains and rivers, but when you walk in, you will find a cave with winding paths and several courtyards.
There were many Jiannu with steady and sharp eyes standing guard in the yard. When they saw Li Chong leading Yang Yuanpu, Han Qian and others, they looked at them as if they were nothing, as if they had received very strict training.
Han Qian didn't know whether these people were the soldiers of the Xinchang Hou Mansion or the killers secretly trained by Wanhonglou.
Walking to the innermost courtyard, a rockery of lake rocks more than a foot high is right at the entrance. Even with some fallen snow, there are still a few green radish plants that are bright in color. They don’t know where they were transplanted from, making them look cold.
The yard adds a touch of elegance.
Everyone walked around the rockery of the lake and saw a middle-aged man with a thin face and a sallow face standing in the courtyard with his hands behind his hands.
Han Qian was brought to Jinling City by his father for less than a year, and he had talked with Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, across the screen. He had not met him in person, but he saw that Li Chong had similar facial features to him, so he knew that he was
Who is it?
Feng Yi and Kong Xirong obviously knew Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, and they were both surprised and suspicious at this time.
"Oh, Chong'er brought His Highness here to play. I wonder who barged in noisily." Li Pu said lightly. It seemed that Li Chong didn't know he was here before he came with the third prince Yang Yuanpu, so he accidentally bumped into him.
superior.
Li Pu's words could not deceive Han Qian, but Feng Yi and Kong Xirong believed them.
After all, it was well known in the court that Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, intended to support the third prince Yang Yuanpu in his bid for the throne. If Li Pu really wanted to see the third prince Yang Yuanpu, he would not have made any such twists and turns.
"Is this Han Qian, Young Master Han's son?" Li Pu looked at Han Qian and said, "I heard from Chong'er that Mr. Han is proficient in farming, farming, etc. I happened to meet him today. Li Pu has some questions to ask Mr. Han.
.”
"Finally got rid of that slave Guo Rong, we can have a good rest here for a long time. I will drink tea with Marquis Xinchang, Li Chong, Han Qian and others in this room. You can find a place to play betting. Don't make trouble for us.
good."
Yang Yuanpu directly ordered Chen De to take Feng Yi and Kong Xirong to play gambling games elsewhere.
Although Chen De is the natal family member of the concubine, and is entrusted by the concubine to protect the safety of the third prince Yang Yuanpu, he is addicted to gambling and is afraid that he will do something bad, so he does not know too many secrets at this time.
This is the other courtyard of the Xinchang Hou Mansion, which is heavily guarded. Xinchang Hou Li Pu wants to find the third prince Yang Yuanpu, and Han Qian wants to talk about some secrets. Chen De naturally doesn't need to worry about anything, so he wants to win over Feng Yi, and Kong Xirong goes to the yard next door to play gambling.
.
Feng Yi and Kong Xirong looked at Han Qian with shock and doubt in their eyes at this moment, but they were half dragged and half pulled out by Chen De.
Han Qian's face darkened, and at this moment, his hands and feet were shaking with anger. He did not expect that Xinchang Hou and his son would reveal his true identity in front of Feng Yi and Kong Xirong so easily.
In the past, no matter how close he was to Li Chong, they would not attract too much attention. After all, they were junior figures and had less influence on their respective families. Feng Yi and Kong Xirong also enjoyed gambling with Chen De from time to time.
However, the Marquis of Xinchang, Li Pu, came forward at this time and signaled Chen De to drag Feng Yi and Kong Xirong away, and then left him alone. Can this mean the same thing?
And his father would inevitably urge him to hand over "Epidemic Water Drainage" to Li Pu and others for implementation.
At this juncture, how come these things are not attracting attention when they are revealed?
What a bunch of self-righteous idiots!
As soon as Chen De and the others left, Li Pu waved to the guards in the courtyard to guard outside the courtyard, and invited the third prince Yang Yuanpu, Han Qian and the others to go to the inner room. They saw a tall bookcase slowly sliding away from the wall in the inner room.
, a dark corridor was revealed, and Yao Xishui walked out of it accompanied by a woman whose face was covered with black veil; behind them, there was a swordsman with a bronze mask on his face who did not step in, but guarded the entrance of the corridor.
.
"I am neither a human nor a ghost. I swore in the early years not to show my true face to others. Please forgive me." The woman glanced at Han Qian and bowed to Yang Yuanpu.
It was also the first time that Yang Yuanpu met the biggest force supporting him behind the scenes. He was still a little nervous. Pretending to be calm, he walked to the long desk in the middle and sat down. He said: "My wife and my concubine have experienced disasters together when they were young in the Guangling Jiedushi Mansion."
, If it weren’t for Madam’s support, Mother and Concubine would not be able to support her until now. Madam, I have also heard Mother and Concubine say in various past experiences that there is no need to be polite.”
"Since you are no longer a person or a ghost, why do you come out to see people again?" Han Qian walked straight to the long desk under Yang Yuanpu and sat down with a look of displeasure on his face, and sarcastically said in a confused voice.
"Bold!" The swordsman guarding the entrance of the corridor lowered the sword on his waist and shouted murderously, "Don't forget, you are our slave in Wanhong Mansion!"
Han Qian took off the sword from his waist and placed it on the long table in front of him. He glanced coldly at the masked swordsman who did not even dare to step into the house, and said disdainfully: "You pretentious guy! Madam
Since you no longer trust Han Qian so easily, if you want Han Qian's life now, just take it, why should you be polite?"
"Have I ever said I don't believe you anymore?" The woman in black gauze sat down opposite Han Qian and stared at him with a pair of bright eyes that could not tell the age.
The two long tables under Yang Yuanpu were occupied by Han Qian and the woman in black gauze. The Marquis of Xinchang, Li Pu, could only sit diagonally opposite Han Qian. He looked sick, but his eyes were fixed on Han Qian's face very sharply.
.
"If Madam didn't trust Han Qian anymore, why did she expose my secret service to His Highness so easily in front of Feng Yi and Kong Xirong?" Han Qian asked angrily, "If you have any trust in me, if you could ask my father in advance
Why are you admonishing the court like this today? It will never destroy the wonderful move that I have worked so hard to prepare for His Highness!"
"Your father is so considerate in planning for Shouzhou this time. If we don't exert a little pressure and let you and your son continue to work both ways, won't you and your son be sold out one day and you and your son will still be kept in the dark?" Li Chong sneered.
asked.
"I don't want to talk to you idiot." Han Qian closed his eyes, unwilling to look at Li Chong at this time.
Han Qian didn't know who was instigating it, but the situation was so bad that he was caught off guard and was at a loss as to how to clean up the mess.
Today, his father came to the palace to remonstrate, which had angered Emperor Tianyou. Not only was he kicked out of Qihua Palace during the court meeting, Emperor Tianyou also went to the Yushitai to pursue his father's sin of gaffes.
If the matter were limited to this, it wouldn't be too bad. Even if Emperor Tianyou was angry at his father for secretly supporting the prince's family, he would not even attempt to kill him.
However, Han Qian knew that once the news about him secretly working for the third prince Yang Yuanpu came out, even if the "Epidemic Water Treatment" was not revealed, Anning Palace would adhere to the principle of "preferring to believe it", and his father might suggest that the
The hungry people infected by the epidemic rushed to Shouzhou to harbor evil intentions for the prince's family.
And when the time comes, will there still be a way for his father and son to survive in Jinling City?
Do these idiots really think that by doing this, they can force his father to give up his so-called feelings and completely join them for warmth?
