108, Resignation

King Han looked at him with a smile: "I heard that you have lost a lot of money in business recently?" The lord feels sorry for you, and asks for a knighthood to compensate you. ”

Mr. Yan's eyes rolled, and he suddenly realized: "It seems that the person I want to thank is still Miss Li!" ”

King Han praised: "Count you on the road!" Know who to thank. Let me tell you the truth, she told me about this plan that day, because she wanted to communicate with her father, but she didn't want to show up, and my father wouldn't believe that it would be me, so who else could come forward and respond to this matter better than you? Be your uncle, remember to thank you. ”

Mr. Yan was ashamed: "Miss Li is so high-spirited and does not seek fame and fortune, which really makes me feel guilty." I hate that I still want to earn her money."

Only then did he understand her peculiar expression when he said that he was going to ask for credit for Han Li, it turned out that she had already given him the credit for nothing!

At night, in Mr. Yan's study, Mrs. Yan, who was described by Mr. Yan as a "tigress", had gentle eyebrows and was dressed in homely clothes, and was not as fierce as Mr. Yan said. Mrs. Yan rolled up her sleeves in one hand and held ink in the other, slowly grinding out a pool of thick ink. She looked worriedly at Mr. Yan, who was sitting on the Taishi's chair and looking up in a daze: "Zhenpu, do you really want to disarm and return to the field?" Now that the emperor has given you the title, you just stop doing it, what do you make the prince think? ”

Mr. Yan smiled bitterly: "Do you think I want to leave?" Not to mention that you and the princess are relatives, I should also serve well by the prince's side for the princess and the prince. It's just that you don't understand, but now I realize that if I don't leave now, I won't be able to get out in the future. ”

Mrs. Yan was puzzled: "How do you say this?" As you said, the princess is now forced to the Buddha hall by the concubine, and I don't know how long the prince's illness can last. If we let go again, who can the princess rely on in the future? Not to mention the kindness of the princess to you and me, even the prince has regarded you as a confidant over the years, and has obeyed you. Now I have asked you for a knighthood, this is a hereditary title! Such a great grace, you don't want to repay, but want to resign and return to your hometown, I really can't figure it out. ”

Mr. Yan stood up irritably, paced slowly on the ground, and said as he paced: "The reason why I have the heart of retreat is precisely because of this title. Do you know how this title came about? ”

Mrs. Yan was puzzled: "Didn't the prince ask the emperor for a seal for you?" ”

Mr. Yan let out a long sigh: "When the Holy Ancestor first formulated the "Da Ming Law", he strictly ordered: those who have no military merits shall not be knighted. You say that this title is so worthless, the prince casually lied to the emperor, and the emperor gave it casually like a piece of meat? What's more, this title is still hereditary! How much military merit does a hereditary earl have to earn? Am I opening up the territory for the Ming Dynasty, or am I ripping the ground? Can the emperor give me this title? ”

Mrs. Yan was even more confused: "Why is that?" Why did the emperor give you this great merit for no reason? ”

Mr. Yan sighed: "This matter is a top secret, and I need to sue you." It's just that I can tell you that Miss Li has made several great contributions, but she doesn't want to be known, so she pushes it on me. The prince reported it, and the reward fell on my head. ”

Mrs. Yan suddenly said: "I see, but since you have inherited such kindness from Miss Li, shouldn't you repay it even more?" Why go? ”

Mr. Yan hated iron and said: "Repay? Who do you think I should repay? Is it the prince? Or Miss Li? ”

Mrs. Yan said, "But what is the difference between the prince and Miss Li?" Looking at this appearance, isn't it inevitable that Miss Li will marry the prince in the future? ”

Mr. Yan said: "Don't you want to think about it, what does the prince do to Miss Li now?" In the future, when Miss Li marries the prince, she won't cover the sky with one hand in this palace? ”

Mrs. Yan high-fived and said, "Isn't this just right!" Miss Li gained power, so naturally she would lose the benefits of Concubine Hai's slut! You have a good relationship with Miss Li, won't you be able to help the princess vent her anger in the future? ”

Mr. Yan hated: "If it weren't for the fact that women have long hair and short knowledge!" In your eyes, it's just a little bit of the back house! Do you know that this Li girl doesn't look at her young age, but she really can't think of that kind of mental means! With her ability, if she wants to, the prince will definitely be manipulated by her! If she is more broad-minded, she will not be embarrassed for a princess who has lost power, the prince is terminally ill, and she can't stop her way, so I will leave now, and I won't worry about the princess. And you wait and see, the sea concubine will definitely die at her hands! I am leaving now, for nothing other than to fear her means. You don't know, she first pit me for 200,000 taels of silver, and then compensated me with a knighthood, which is really a slap in the face to give a sweet date, this is to tame me to honestly give her life! ”

He sighed, "But should I surrender to her now?" Should I be loyal to the prince, or should I be loyal to Miss Li? ”

Mrs. Yan didn't quite understand: "Aren't they of one heart?" ”

Mr. Yan shook his head and said, "Now it seems to be, but in fact it is not!" Miss Li is by no means a person who is willing to be subordinate! The prince is now obedient to her, and he can't let her completely surrender, if he has a conflict with her in the future, which side do you think I should go? I can't bear to deal with the prince to Miss Li; Dealing with Miss Li towards the prince? I still want to live! Honestly, I don't dare. One of the things I regret the most now is that I shouldn't have given Miss Li a soft tendon in order to please the prince! This matter is a thorn in Miss Li's heart, I'm afraid that she will toss me when she thinks about it. Why did you say that she cheated me for the 200,000 taels of silver? It's not just an export gas! Even though she helped me earn it back, I don't believe I've had that good luck every time. Miss Li's means are too antelope to hang horns, and there is no trace of them. When she digs a pit, I only have to jump. I have old arms and legs, but I can't help her play like this, Lao Tzu doesn't play, madam, let's take advantage of the two money in our hands, just go back to the countryside, and I will accompany you to grow vegetables and flowers. Don't intrigue with them, okay? ”

Mrs. Yan looked at Mr. Yan's pale temples, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes distressedly, and responded, "Okay!" We don't want anything! Let's go back to the country! ”

Mr. Yan said with relief: "I have long wanted to swim all over this great river and mountain while I can move, madam, you said that we are fishing in the five lakes and looking at the moon in the three mountains, what a fairy-like day it should be!" Let them continue to fight for me. Besides, with Miss Li by the prince's side, I am of little use, and I can go with peace of mind. ”
