776 Temptation (2)
The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it;
If the pile is higher than the shore, the current will be turbulent.
Xiao Minyuan was only blinded by appearances before, but now after being spoken by Feng Qiao, he subconsciously replied "no" in his heart.
His father was never such a stupid person, if he really chose Xiao Jinyu, he would only hide him, let him cultivate him secretly, and even lay a good foundation for him to pave the way for him, instead of directly pushing him out and becoming a bird.
Feng Qiao saw that Xiao Minyuan's face softened, and poured a new cup of tea and handed it to him.
"You are usually a keen person, how can you not even understand such a simple truth, I see that you are in the game, blinded by the throne. ”
Xiao Minyuan took the teacup, looked at the floating tea leaves and rippling water lines in the cup, and smiled bitterly: "Maybe." ”
When you care too much, you will inevitably lose your way.
He endured it for several years, and after painstaking planning, he finally got to where he is today.
Seeing that he was about to get Xiao Xianhong who was pressing on his head, but suddenly killed Xiao Jinyu, how could he not be distracted?
Seeing him, Feng Qiao leaned back in the chair behind him: "Actually, instead of being so defensive about the Nine Emperors, you should think about what happened to you and the Four Princes after the Great Prince fell." The Nine Emperors are much younger than the three of you, and they have been following Concubine Yun with a weak personality all these years, and they have not received any useful teachings at all, and they have no foundation in the court, even if His Majesty lets him practice literature and martial arts now, no matter how good the master is, how can he achieve any results without years of hard work. ”
"The throne seems to be supreme, but the hardships and dangers are unimaginable to ordinary people, let alone anyone can sit down, a person who doesn't even know the slightest bit of the emperor's mental skills, only knows that he is immersed in strange tricks and tricks, and he doesn't even have the slightest ambition, even if he really becomes the prince, can the throne sit firmly?"
Xiao Minyuan had already calmed down just now, and when he jumped out of the game, when he listened to Feng Qiao's words again, he could easily hear what she meant, and he looked at Feng Qiao with some suspicion: "How do I think, you are not so much persuading me, but more like protecting Xiao Jiu?"
Feng Qiao smiled: "That's it, the Nine Emperor Princes once saved my life when they were young, and he is my sister-in-law's apprentice, and he has some connections with Guo Ge Lao and their family, I can't look at him as a person who has no intention of taking the throne, because Your Majesty's thoughts are regarded as enemies by you." ”
"If he gets up, I'm afraid he will be gnawed by you to the bones mellow, and he is a young man, if he really fights with you and there is nothing left, no matter what point he looks at, I will always try my best to help him. ”
"My father and I will protect him for a few years, and when the new monarch ascends the throne in the future, we will give him the position of a prince and let him go to the fiefdom, which can be regarded as repaying his kindness back then. ”
Xiao Minyuan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and it took a while to remember what Feng Qiao said about saving his life.
Back then, Guo Jilian was in the middle of the three yuan, which was a great joy, but who knew that he was assassinated when the Guo family was banqueting, which also involved fraud in the imperial examination.
That incident was very troublesome, and I heard that Feng Qiao almost lost his life, thanks to the help of the daughter of the Liu family and Xiao Jinyu, he escaped.
Wait, the daughter of the Liu family......
Xiao Minyuan's eyes narrowed slightly, he remembered that the girl of the Liu family who saved Feng Qiao back then seemed to be the dumb girl under the knees of the third master of the Liu family who was expelled from the mansion by Liu Xiangcheng, right?
Feng Qiao's father and daughter have a deep hatred for the Liu family, and even did not hesitate to cooperate with him to bring down the Liu family, wanting to cut down the Liu family to the roots, so how could they let go of Liu Shen's father and daughter, and how could Liu Shen's father and daughter be so coincidental and get out just before Feng Qiao and them made a move?
Xiao Min Yuan originally wondered why Feng Qiao chose to do it to Liu Huiru in Jiyun Temple, was it all because of that dumb girl?
Did she want that Liu Minfang to get out of the Liu family, so she chose to start at that time?
Xiao Minyuan was thoughtful, he only thought that Feng Qiao's eyes would be reciprocated, but he didn't want her to value kindness so much.
Even the daughter of the Liu family can be spared, so it is not strange to say so bluntly that she wants to protect Xiao Jinyu thoroughly, and even protect him everywhere in her words.
"I remember that you also saved Xiao Jiu once. Xiao Minyuan asked tentatively.
Feng Qiao smiled: "You mean that the Nine Emperor Princes were seriously ill in the palace that time?"
"That time I helped him was entrusted by the Guo family, and in fact, he was smart and knew how to borrow, I didn't actually help him with anything, but the Nine Emperors have always remembered in my heart that he is a very grateful person. ”
She looked up at him as she spoke: "You don't have to test me, if the Nine Emperor Princes are really interested in the throne, my father and I may not protect him like this, his character is not worthy of this ambition, nor is it suitable for that position, my father and I are both life-loving people." ”
Xiao Minyuan listened to Feng Qiao's straightforward words, and his heart, which was still a little skeptical, completely relaxed.
He remembered the previous incident in the Ministry of Industry, Xiao Jinyu only because Gong He was embarrassed by him, so he went to the palace to complain, and then because Emperor Yongzhen did not stand up for him, he was so angry that he did not go to the Ministry of Industry for several days.
This kind of willful and impulsive character, acting even more recklessly, how can they survive in the intriguing struggle for imperial power, even if Feng Qizhou and Feng Qiao want to repay their kindness, they will not take their lives to compensate.
Seeing that Feng Qiao saw his mind thoroughly, Xiao Minyuan said with a rare surprise: "You can always see people clearly. ”
Feng Qiaoyang raised his lips and did not speak.
Xiao Minyuan also consciously stopped telling her about Xiao Jinyu.
The two sat at the table drinking tea, and after a while, Feng Qiao asked, "How is the Liu family now?"
Xiao Minyuan said: "It's almost, Liu Zheng is completely dead to Liu Xiangcheng, I'm afraid that he will directly strangle all the retreats of Liu Xiangcheng, and I have also made preparations on Cai Qi's side." My father intended to let Dali Temple strictly interrogate Taixu's affairs, and Liu Zheng now wants to put Liu Chi to death, I will be able to give you what you want soon. ”
Feng Qiao took the teacup and said, "That Liu Zheng is interesting, he is worthy of being a member of the Liu family." ”
Vicious and ruthless in the same vein.
She looked up at Xiao Minyuan and said: "You have done the things of the Liu family, and my father has also done the things I promised you, and now although the eldest prince and the Chen family have thrown Liu Chi out, I think you should have a back hand." ”
"For the sake of your sincerity in this cooperation, when you trade Liu Xiang to me, I will give you a big gift, which will definitely make your wishes come true. ”
Xiao Minyuan's expression moved slightly, and when he saw what Feng Qiao said, he guessed that they might still have some kind of great prince's handle in their hands, and even let him be fatal.
He burst out laughing, raised the teacup in his hand and said, "Then I'll thank you in advance." ”
Feng Qiao also chuckled: "No need, everyone gets what they get." ”
