Chapter Forty-Seven: Breaking the Game

Just rushed home, approaching the Spring Festival, there are too many things, forgive me! ——

Walking into the study, without waiting for Wu Jin to speak, Huangfu Jiang sighed and said, "I'll go to the East Palace in the morning to see Wei Ming." ”

Wu Jin was stunned, he didn't understand what the old prince meant, he didn't speak, he sat there and listened quietly, Huangfu Jiang stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, his eyes were full of disappointment, and he said to him: People always have a choice, and choosing the East Palace is my choice, I don't regret it.

These words deeply stung Huang Fujiang, leaving him speechless, and his voice became low.

"The prince sent his four most elite and confidant guards to find out the whereabouts of the other half of the tiger talisman, his enthusiasm for the tiger talisman case makes me suspicious, I suspect that he has found out that you are important to me, so he is using you, his purpose is 200,000 elite soldiers in Helong, if so, then Wei Ming is very unwise in the East Palace, today I went to persuade him to come to the Lanling Palace, I will take care of him, but he refused."

Huangfu Jiang sighed deeply, turned his head and stared at Wu Jin, his eyes showed a sad look, "Wu Jin, I am very sad for Wei Ming, I never thought that Tianfeng's son would be so obsessed with official career, and even sold himself to the prince for the sake of his career, forgive me for speaking mean, but I feel this way." ”

Wu Jin lowered his head, he knew that Huang Fujiang was right, the eldest brother was so obsessed with his career, like a demon, but Wei Ming was his eldest brother after all.

"Old prince, maybe it's because he doesn't know his life experience, if you tell him, maybe he won't be so indulged in official career."

"No!"

Huang Fujiang refused without hesitation, "The reason why we chose you in the end and didn't choose Weiming is because he is too dangerous, and his fascination with his career will ruin all of us, and we can't take this risk." ”

"Maybe if you tell him the truth, he will have a higher pursuit, and he won't be so obsessed with his career, what does the old prince think?"

Huangfu Jiang smiled faintly, "Wu Jin, I understand that you value brotherhood, but please also understand, we have been hidden for forty years, we would rather take this secret to the grave than let it threaten the survival of our descendants, we observed Wei Ming for ten years, we finally decided that he was not suitable, he could not lead us, you know, why did you let the three Chen brothers follow you?" ”

Wu Jin hesitated, "Are you testing my eldest brother?" ”

Huangfu Jiang nodded slowly, "That's right, even including marrying Yu Hailan to him, is actually a temptation, and it is the last chance we gave him, Wu Jin, I'm sorry, he is not qualified." ”

"But Weiming didn't do anything wrong?"

Wu Jin couldn't help but argue for his brother, "He just wants to get ahead, this is normal, I also want to get ahead, it's just that I didn't choose to be an official, but I wanted to make money and chose a career, it's nothing, is he mediocre, are you satisfied?" ”

"It's not as simple as you think, it's not because he wants to go on a career path, but some of the most basic things."

Huangfu Jiang sighed, "He is too unkind, the Chen brothers saved his life, and took care of him all along the way, when he entered Beijing, because of Qi Sheng's stupidity, he left his real name when he stayed, and was almost chased and killed by the embroidered guards, it was Chen Hu and Chen Biao's brothers who led away the embroidered guards regardless of their surnames, so as to save their lives, but after entering Beijing, he ignored the Chen brothers, did not give them any arrangements, and did not even say thank you, the color of disgust flowed on the face, you said such a person, will we give him thousands of surnames?" ”

"And you're different!" Huang Fujiang's eyes lit up, "We are also observing you, your wisdom, your tolerance, your kindness, even if it is a little minion of the Phoenix Society, you will use your life to protect him, even if it is an old man who has never met, you will also stretch out a hand, you have made all of us see hope, this is our decision, Wujin, you have to bear the responsibility that belongs to you, this is the responsibility left to you by your father." ”

Wu Jin nodded silently, Huang Fujiang's sincerity touched him, and he also realized that this was a responsibility that he could not shirk, he suddenly smiled bitterly, "I also encountered a crisis, in order to save my surname, I also had to take this responsibility, in fact, I have no way out." ”

Huangfu Jiang was taken aback, "Wu Jin, what did you say?" ”

Wu Jin told Huang Fujiang what happened today, and finally he said helplessly: "The eldest brother is the hostage of the prince, he threatens me with the life of the eldest brother, if I don't show my attitude to Uncle Shen just now, then tomorrow the eldest brother will be sick, and he will be very sick, this is for sure, Lord Wang, it doesn't taste good to be pinched in your hands!" ”

"You bastard, despicable!"

Huangfu Jiang scolded in a low voice, "He is still the prince of a country, and he actually used such despicable means to get Helong elite soldiers?" He dreamed! ”

He glanced back at Wu Jin, and suddenly laughed again, "Wu Jin, don't you think this is providence?" It's God's arrangement for you to take this path, isn't it? ”

"Yes! It's providence. ”

Wu Jin's wry smile was even stronger, "Who would have thought that I would meet the old prince in Yanshi and let me be saved by the old prince, this is indeed the will of heaven." ”

Huangfu Jiang laughed, "Wu Jin, you won't think that I deliberately appeared in Yanshi, right?" I went to sweep my mother's grave, and on the way back, I happened to meet Miss Yu to save you on the boat. ”

Wu Jin also scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled: "It seems that it is really providence!" ”

Seeing that Wujin finally accepted the reality, Huangfu Jiang was extremely relieved in his heart, so he smiled and said, "You sit down for a while, I'll go get a pot of tea." ”

He walked out of the door, and in a moment, he walked back to the study with a pot of tea, and saw that Wu Jin was in a state of contemplation with his hands in his arms and his head staring at the roof, so he did not disturb his contemplation, but poured him a cup of tea, sat aside, and waited quietly for him to finish his contemplation.

After a long time, Wu Jin finally spoke, "Lord, I have a question, please answer it." ”

"You say!"

"I want to know, what will happen if Helong Zhang Dashuai makes a gesture that is inclined to the crown prince?"

Huangfu Jiang frowned, "Do you want Zhang Chongjun to support the crown prince?" ”

Wu Jin nodded, "Actually, it's not really supportive, I just want to make a gesture." ”

Huangfu Jiang took a sip of tea and said with a slight smile: "Tell me what you think first." ”

Wu Jin smiled and said slowly: "I'm thinking, since the prince regards me as a move, then the surname Suo will become his most important chess piece, and use his momentum to develop, doesn't he want to win over the prince through me?" Then I will let him succeed, so that he has to rely on me to maintain his relationship with Zhang Chongjun, he has to rely on me, and at that time, Wei Ming should also be admitted to the imperial examination and officially enter his official career, and the prince can't use Wei Ming to threaten me, so that the current crisis will be broken, what does the old prince think? ”

"This can be possible!"

Huangfu Jiang pondered and said: "The key is not to let the emperor know, he will not allow the prince to have anything to do with the local army, and if you want to do this, you must hide it from the emperor." ”

"There should be no problem, we can even set up a game, on the surface, let the prince and Zhang Dashuai have a bad relationship, but secretly, I am their one-line contact, what does the prince think?"

"But I'm worried about Uncle Shen, he will be bad for you."

"Lord Wang, there can't be both."

Huangfu Jiang paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, he was also thinking about something, and finally he stopped and looked back at Wu Jin, "Since you have agreed to join us, then we will continue to take the second step, and this second step is directly related to breaking the crisis in front of you." ”

"Old prince, please speak!"

Huangfu Jiang opened a small secret door from the wall, opened an iron lock with a key, and took out a document from it, he put the document in front of Wu Jin, Wu Jin saw that the document had turned yellow, as if it had been twenty years old, and it looked like a child's birth document.

"What is this?" He asked, a little puzzled.

"This is your birth certificate, in fact, Wei Ming also has one, but his copy is useless, and now only yours is used."

"My birth certificate?"

Wu Jin was a little stunned, his birth certificate should be in Donghai County, why is it here? He looked up at Huangfu Jiang and looked at him suspiciously.

Huang Fujiang seemed to know what he was thinking, so he explained to him with a smile, "Your birth certificate in Donghai County should be true, but we deliberately did something wrong back then, if someone is interested in checking it, you will find that the birth certificate is actually fake, and at that time, we deliberately bribed Hu Cao from Weiyang County, and he always thought he was fake; And the birth certificate in front of you is supposed to be fake, but we made it real, do you understand? ”

Wu Jin sighed, "Lord Wang, just say it!" I'm already confused, too. ”

"Alright! I will make it clear that from now on, you are no longer the son of the Donghai Huangfu clan, your true identity is the illegitimate son of my son, and you were handed over to the Donghai Huangfu clan to raise when you were born. ”

At this moment, Wu Jin was really blindfolded, he didn't expect it to become like this, is this possible?

"Don't worry, we have everything arranged, including your grandfather, including your nominal parents, that is, my eldest son Huang Fuhong and eldest grandson's daughter-in-law, they have all died, nineteen years ago, Huang Fuhong served as the governor of Chuzhou's naval army, and privately married a woman surnamed Shen in Donghai County, I resolutely refuse to admit it, a year later, the woman surnamed Shen gave birth to a son, it is you, they didn't dare to raise it, so they secretly entrusted it to your grandfather, how about it, does this story feel real?"

Wu Jin patted his forehead and sighed, "How can I hear it like the real thing." ”

Huangfu Jiang laughed, "Actually, it's true, including my son deliberately marrying a woman surnamed Shen is also true, I originally wanted to give birth to a son, it's more real, but unfortunately I didn't give birth, the woman surnamed Shen died in childbirth, and at that time, you were born, my son bought a baby and went to Huangfu Mansion, pretending to change you, many people in Huangfu Mansion know, they can prove that everything is seamless." ”

"But... What about my eldest brother? Didn't you say that he also had a birth certificate? If you choose to be clear, how can you do this? ”

"It's easier to choose Weiming, because back then, Weiming was born in my house, but now it's not necessary."

Wu Jin sighed, "I really admire you, all kinds of means are used, even my own son went to Chuzhou to take up a post, and he did not hesitate to hook up with a woman from a good family, it was arranged nineteen years ago, I really obeyed you." ”

Huangfu Jiang patted Wujin lightly on the shoulder, "Our forty years have not been spent in vain, we have planned for forty years, just for the sake of you two brothers, let you enter Beijing to know that your life experience is the first step, and turning you into my grandson is the second step, now you are the identity of King Liang's great-grandson, and King Liang is the orthodox royal family, and then you will participate in the competition for the world as King Liang's great-grandson!" ”

"That's... What about my eldest brother? Wu Jin found a problem.

Huangfu Jiang sighed helplessly, "There is no way, Wei Ming is still the grandson of Huangfu Bailing of the East China Sea, you are no longer brothers, if you unfortunately fail and die, then let him continue the bloodline for Tianfeng!" ”
