Chapter 140: Thick Face and Black Heart (Second Update.)
Huangfu Duo, mentioning this name, as long as you are a person from the Snow Country, there are few people who don't know, the family of the Jiangmen Xungui who was born in the Snow Country is not something worth boasting about, but this person was weak fifty years ago, without the slightest experience in leading troops to fight, led 200,000 Snow Country troops to repel the 300,000 invading Jin army, but it is enough to sensational the world!
Although Yun Shengmen also contributed a lot in that battle, but Huang Fu Duo's strategy and decisive attack is also one of the key factors to win, since then, Huang Fu Duo guarded the border pass for decades, repeatedly thwarted including the invasion of the Jin State and the Qin State, and presided over the construction of more than ten border cities, even with Cheng Yue has a great relationship with the hands of this person, because of the brilliant record, brilliant achievements, was named the general of the town country and the Duke of Ye by the Snow King, but also by the world as the snow country god of the general existence!
More than ten years ago, because of his prestige, this person was suspected of being a high-ranking master, so he stepped down from the position of first-line commander and returned to Pingjing to be a rich man who did not hold real power, but although he lost his military power, because of the prestige he created in the early years, Huangfu Duo is still a very authoritative minister in the court, and because his granddaughter married Lu Wenzheng, the second prince of the Snow Country, she has become one of the popular candidates for the future prince's relatives!
Of course, because of this, he has also become a boss-level figure among the supporters of the second prince! It can be said that as long as he marries this person, he can be on the thigh of the second prince Lu Wenzheng!
And Cheng Yue entered Beijing this time, if he wants to save his status or even his life, he must choose a powerful force to serve, and at the moment, the second prince Lu Wenzheng and his family are undoubtedly the best choice!
There is no other reason, in order to compete for the status of the prince of the Snow Country, this family of people and Cheng Yue's enemy prince are intolerable, not only have the strength, but also have the motivation to go against the eldest prince!
……
It didn't take long for Cheng Yue and Zhao Yuzi to come to the gate of Huangfu Duo's mansion.
As a hot and important minister in the court, there are naturally many people who want to make friends with Huang Fu Duo, so there has always been a lot of traffic outside Huang Fu Duo's mansion and it is crowded.
Cheng Yue saw such a grand occasion, the corners of his eyes twitched, if he was queuing up to see, he really didn't know when he would go, but he was now a suspect, and it was inconvenient to forcibly break in in order to avoid suspicion, and he was really helpless in the face of this scene.
Fortunately, in addition to queuing and forcing his way, he has a third option......
Cheng Yue asked Zhao Yuzi to wait in the carriage, found an uninhabited alley nearby, released the tyrant, explained the situation, and finally said: "It's up to you!"
The tyrant smiled smugly, patted his chest and said, "It's nothing more than teleporting into a mansion, it's not a big deal, just leave it to me!"
Cheng Yue didn't dare to be so careless, and told him: "Don't move to the depths of the mansion, that will cause a big misunderstanding, just move to a secluded place not far from the mansion gate." ”
Cheng Yue's request is a bit high, after all, the tyrant has never been to Huangfu Duo's Ye Gongfu's mansion, and he doesn't know the specific situation, but fortunately, this is not difficult for it, the tyrant is a soul body, and he can see it clearly from the air if he rises directly into the air.
Without further ado, the tyrant immediately flew into the sky and went to "step on the spot".
Cheng Yue looked at the figure of the tyrant rising into the air, all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred in his heart, as the master, he still can't fly!
A moment later, the tyrant returned, and Cheng Yue immediately asked him to teleport to the Emperor's Mansion with him.
In a flash of white light, Cheng Yue appeared behind a pillar not far from the inside of the mansion gate, he didn't have the slightest intention of hiding, and after putting away the tyrant, he walked out generously, so that the servants in the mansion could see his figure.
The servants were startled, and hurriedly surrounded each with a knife and a gun.
Cheng Yue did not panic in the face of this posture, and explained his intention and his identity in a few words.
When the servants learned of his identity, they did not dare to make their own decisions, so they hurriedly went to the imperial priest to inquire.
A quarter of an hour later, Huang Fu Duo's eldest son came in person and invited Cheng Yue into the depths of the mansion.
The scale of Huangfu Duo's duke's mansion is not small, and it took more than ten minutes to walk this way before Cheng Yue was taken outside the library where Huang Fu Duo was located.
At this time, Huang Fu Duo was receiving other visitors in the library pavilion, Cheng Yue thought that he would have to wait a little longer, but he didn't expect Huang Fu Duo to invite him in directly.
"I've seen Lord Huangfu!" Seeing Huangfu Duo, Cheng Yue bowed first.
"No courtesy, no courtesy!" Huang Fu Duo smiled kindly, waved his hand, and looked Cheng Yue up and down, as if it was the first time he saw him, "What a hero is a young man! Yunshengmen is very prosperous, and even the Jiangshan Sheji of my snow country can be further consolidated because of this!"
Huangfu Duo's words are not just as simple as releasing kindness, he pointed out Cheng Yue's brilliant future, which shows that he has the meaning of protecting Cheng Yue, and not only Cheng Yue's life, but also his status as the lord of the Genting East Palace!
Cheng Yue naturally heard this, but he didn't mean to be pampered and arrogant, and hurriedly expressed his humility: "Lord Huangfu is too famous, the kid is just lucky to be valued by the master of the door, if you want to make achievements in the future, in addition to your own micro ability, you also have to rely on the support of a pillar of the country like an adult, and a virtuous king like His Royal Highness the Second Prince!"
"He's a smart man!" Huang Fu Duo nodded and secretly praised, where is Cheng Yue being humble?
Before Huang Fu Duo could say anything, a tall middle-aged man standing behind him preemptively said: "The king has not yet decided on the candidate for the prince, and it is too early to say that the second prince is a virtuous king." ”
Cheng Yue didn't reply in a hurry, but stared at the man and asked, "I don't know who Your Excellency is?"
The tall middle-aged man replied bluntly: "Cao Mian, the current head of the household department." ”
"Ah, it turned out to be Lord Cao!" Cheng Yue pretended to be surprised and saluted Cao Mian, and then he said righteously and impassionedly: "What the Lord just said is very true, but the virtue of the second prince is also difficult to find in ancient and modern times, if the second prince cannot inherit the unification, it is really a great misfortune for my snow country!
"As it should be. Cao Mian smiled.
Huangfu Duo saw that his wise man Cao Mian had already recognized Cheng Yue, so he held his beard and said, "Zhao Wuzi, since you are so optimistic about the second prince, do you already have a way to help him ascend to the throne?"
Huangfu Duo knew very well what Cheng Yue wanted to rely on to drag Lu Wenchen off the horse, which was tantamount to asking knowingly, but Cheng Yue couldn't help but answer, he said with a look of righteous indignation: "Lu Wencheng disregarded brotherhood, colluded with Zhou Kaisheng, and insisted on killing the second prince's life.
Cheng Yue's meaning is very simple, the Snow King has two sons, as long as Lu Wencheng is solved, the second prince Lu Wenzheng can become the prince as a matter of course, unless the Snow King has a cramp in his brain and turns his elbow outward, not wanting his son to succeed to the throne, but going to the Lu clan to choose a candidate.
Huangfu Duo and Cao Mian glanced at each other, they were both very satisfied with Cheng Yue's cheeky face, as for how the plan should be implemented, they didn't need Cheng Yue to say, they knew what to do!
Huangfu Duo immediately picked up the tea bowl and said to Cheng Yue: "Xiaodao has a pure heart for the country and the people, this prince knows, in order not to destroy the rivers and mountains of my snow country, this prince will definitely speak out fairly and fight for the king!"
Cheng Yue knew that Huangfu Duo's action was to signal that he could get out, but his goal had been achieved, and there was really no need to stay any longer, so he was a joker at the moment, and said: "Lord Huangfu, the kid has been tired all the way, and he didn't sleep well last night, and his energy is low at this time, and he wants to go back to the museum to rest, please forgive me!"
Huangfu Duo nodded very reasonably, and said with a friendly smile: "Forgive me or something, just forgive!" Since Xiaoyou is tired, and go to rest, but Pingjing Yi has been in disrepair for a long time, and it is a little dilapidated, which is not suitable for living, if Xiaoyou does not give up, you can temporarily stay in this mansion for one night. ”
A wisp of color flashed in Cheng Yue's eyes, but he did not refuse Huangfu Duo's invitation, and said smoothly: "In this case, the kid will be bothered!"
"It's okay!"
Huangfu Duo waved his hand generously, and then called the eldest son, whispered a few times, and asked the eldest son to take Cheng Yue down.
It wasn't until Cheng Yue had been gone for a long time that Huangfu Duo asked Cao Mian: "What do you think of this kid?"
Cao Mian frowned and thought about it, and replied: "Needless to say, he is witty and cunning, he has such a bold and cheeky skin at a young age, which is really an outlier!
Huangfu Duo bowed slightly: "Who do you think that master is?"
Cao Mian sneered: "Who else can it be? It must be Tianchengzi!"
However, Huangfu Duo shook his head: "I know Tianchengzi very well, although he is a villain who is different from the outside, but his attainments in power are far from being so exquisite, there should be someone else behind him!"
