Chapter Ninety-Six: The Sheep Family is in Trouble

With the execution of the core henchmen who followed Empress Jia and King Zhao to rebel, the imperial court gradually focused on cleaning up the non-core members of King Zhao and Empress Jia.

In this way, those families who tried to fish in troubled waters and stood on the wrong side began to be unlucky, and every day in Luoyang City, high-ranking families were raided because they were implicated in the rebellion case.

In Luoyang City, in the Yang's house, the head of the family, Yang Xuanzhi, was sitting on a chair with a sad face, and his wife and daughter were sitting next to him. From the sad faces of the three people, it can be seen that the Yang family is definitely encountering a big problem.

"Master, why don't we go and confess our mistake to the prince?" When Mrs. Yang saw that Yang Xuanzhi was embarrassed, she couldn't help but persuade her.

"Woman's view! If you admit your mistake now and you can get rid of your relationship with King Zhao, do you think your husband will still sit here and sigh for a long time? Yang Xuanzhi glanced at his wife.

"What are you anxious about, aren't I doing this for the good of our sheep family?" Mrs. Sheep said with a frown.

"Okay, madam, don't make a mess, just take good care of your daughter! Alas, fortunately, we were one step late, if Xian Rong was sent to the palace, it would be too late to say anything at this time! Yang Xuanzhi glanced at his daughter sitting next to him and said with some joy.

"Yes, yes, no one thought that the prince would turn the tables overnight, not only uprooting King Zhao, but also knocking the Jia family, who had been in charge of the government for nearly ten years, into the dust. Alas, our daughter's life is miserable! I could have been a queen, but now I ...... Alas! I'm afraid I won't even be able to save my life. Mrs. Sheep also looked like she was palpitating.

Seeing the sad look of his parents, Yang Xianrong, who was sitting quietly on the side, couldn't help but think of the scene a month ago. She remembered that it was a moonless night, and that day a guy named Sun Xiu went to Yang's house and said something to her father Yang Xuanzhi, and her father was like a chicken blood, and the whole person changed.

The night a month ago, the house of Yang Xuan, indoor......

"Woo woo......" Yang Xianrong kept crying on the side, and Yang Xuanzhi and his wife persuaded on the side.

Yang Xianrong wrinkled his little face that was already crying and said, "No! Nope! Father, daughter won't marry that fool! ”

"Hey! My stupid girl, no matter what people say, they are also the emperor of a country, if you have the means of Empress Jia, then the entire court will not be our sheep family to have the final say? Yang Xuanzhi persuaded bitterly, blaming him for favoring his daughter too much, but at the critical moment, his daughter dared to oppose his decision.

"Humph! The father sent his daughter to the palace, not so that he could tie up with King Zhao. Yang Xianrong is not a big lady who doesn't know anything, she is not only familiar with the subset of scriptures and history, but also has a sense of political acumen that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve.

"Ahem...... You...... How do you speak? Father is doing this for the good of our sheep family! Now you open your eyes and see, today's Yang family is not the court dignitaries of the ancestor Yanghu when he was in power, if it weren't for the fact that my father still has an official and a half-position, our Yang family may have no place to speak in the capital! ~" Yang Xuanzhi explained with some embarrassment, although this explanation was very pale, it couldn't hide the fact that he sold his daughter for glory.

Yang Xianrong was silent, because she knew that what her father said was not untargeted. The once prominent Yang family, now not to mention that it is in the limelight, not to mention overshadowing the Jia family, I am afraid that it is not as good as several other families. It is understandable that my father wants to take the line of King Zhao and find a way out for the Yang family.

But is King Zhao really worth the job? Yang Xianrong expressed deep doubts about this!

"Father, you want to glorify our sheep family, and my daughter has no objection to this. But if you are ready to bet all your bets on King Zhao, your daughter has to persuade you, this King Zhao is not the best target for our Yang family! ”

Yang Xianrong was already a little loose at this time, and she had already begun to consider this matter in the interests of the family. This is the child educated by the big family, and the interests of the family must be the first priority at all times!

"Daughter King Zhao is not the best target, let's lick the toes of Empress Jia?" Yang Xuanzhi knew that his daughter was not an ordinary person, so when he knew that his daughter was not optimistic about King Zhao, he suddenly muttered a little in his heart. If it is really as his daughter said, King Zhao overturns in the gutter, then the sheep family will be unlucky!

"No, no, Jia Hou is now complacent, even if we go to the past, we can't get the maximum benefit, it's just to maintain the status quo. If our Yang family wants to go to the next level, we must put it to death and live again, and take risks! Speaking of this, a young and handsome face appeared in Yang Xianrong's mind.

"Does my daughter want our Yang family to join the prince? No, it's absolutely not going to work! Yang Xuanzhi did not hesitate to interrupt his daughter's unrealistic thoughts.

"Why not? You are not optimistic about the prince, and the daughter thinks that the prince can achieve great things! Look at the prince's methods in Guanzhong, three moves and two ways will run Guanzhong like a bucket, don't look at the prince did not move the system, Ouyang Jian and others, my daughter dares to guarantee that it is just used to confuse everyone. Either they have already taken refuge in the crown prince, or they have been completely stripped of the power in their hands! ”

Yang Xianrong retorted a little unconvinced, she was indeed optimistic about the development of the prince, even if the prince now seemed to be in a dead place and was trapped in the capital by Empress Jia, but Yang Xianrong knew that the prince must have a back hand. Once the prince exerts his strength, what Empress Jia, King Zhao, etc., are not enough to see!

"You know what! If our Yang family dares to take refuge in the prince, we will immediately be excluded by the whole world. Regardless of the current situation of the prince, let's just say that in the future, he and the family will always have a winner, and our Yang family, as a member of the family, will have to conflict with the prince sooner or later. ”

"Even if our Yang family is desperate to take refuge in the prince, daughter, what benefits do you think our Yang family can get? Look at how the prince dealt with the local heroes and families when he was in Xincheng and Guanzhong: hand over the subordinates, slaves, and then take the family property to Chang'an to become a rich man! ”

"Rich man, what is a rich man! Our sheep family will completely lose its current power and status! Therefore, my father would never take refuge in the crown prince unless he ......"

"Unless ...... something"

"Unless the crown prince gives up suppressing the family, there is no possibility for us to reconcile with him!"

Yang Xianrong was silent, she knew that the estrangement between the family and the prince was very deep, and it was by no means something that she could resolve in a few words, so she decided to change the topic.

"Father, do you really think Empress Jia and King Zhao will succeed this time?"

"Of course, your maternal grandfather's family, the Sun family, has completely surrendered to King Zhao, if it weren't for the certainty, how could their Sun family be so active! Moreover, my father also got some secret news from the Sun family, saying that King Zhao actually had a bigger conspiracy! Speaking of which, Yang Xuanzhi was excited every time he remembered what the Sun brothers told him! If this thing can really be done, the Yang family will definitely be able to soar to the sky.

Looking at Yang Xuanzhi, whose face was flushed with excitement, Yang Xianrong smiled bitterly and asked, "Father, think carefully about the prince's movements, since returning to Beijing, has the prince moved?" No, but is this normal? Now everyone knows that Empress Jia wants to talk about the prince, but the prince is not in a hurry at all, is this normal? ”

"What does my daughter mean ......" Yang Xianrong's words made Yang Xuanzhi suddenly break out in a cold sweat.

"Well, my daughter suspects that this is simply the prince playing tricks on everyone, and the reason why he is indifferent is that he wants to uproot all political enemies in the capital. Look at how many people in the capital are in the capital for the sake of power, Empress Jia and King Zhao, hum! Wait and see, once the crown prince succeeds in turning the tables, all the henchmen of Empress Jia and King Zhao will be unlucky! Yang Xianrong said disdainfully.

"Shhh This...... This prince's scheming is too terrifying! Yang Xuanzhi couldn't believe that a guy in his early twenties could play hundreds of powerful people in the capital.

"Alas! It's not that the prince is clever, but that some people are blinded by power! Yang Xianrong sighed.

"That'...... So what do we do? I...... I have already promised King Zhao, if I regret it at this time, I'm afraid it will ......" Yang Xuanzhi retreated after listening to his daughter's words, and no longer dared to rush to post King Zhao, for fear of being said by his daughter!

"In this case, my father might as well continue to play Tai Chi with King Zhao, as long as Heng and Zhu survive these few days, the situation between the DPRK and China will be clear. At that time, no matter who wins, our sheep family will have room for maneuver. It's really not good, my daughter will obey King Zhao's arrangement, that is, if the prince wins, our Yang family will not have no hope of turning over! Yang Xianrong suggested.

……

Just as Yang Xianrong recalled what happened a month ago, he was suddenly alarmed by the quarrel of his parents, and it turned out that the two elders were still arguing about how to get rid of the crisis in front of the Yang family. Yang Xianrong's mother suggested that he immediately surrender to the prince and strive for the prince's forgiveness, while his father Yang Xuanzhi was frightened by the prince's ruthless methods and prepared to pack his bags and return to his hometown in Shandong.

Looking at the quarreling parents, Yang Xianrong rubbed his head and persuaded: "Okay, father, mother, don't quarrel, it's not yet a matter of life and death, there is still hope for our Yang family!" ”

"Really! Daughter, you're right! ”

As soon as the second elder heard his daughter speak, he immediately stopped arguing, especially Yang Xuanzhi's eyes looked at Yang Xianrong with hope. Since his daughter successfully predicted the prince's successful seizure of power, Yang Xuanzhi no longer dared to despise his daughter. Sometimes he thinks that if Yang Xianrong is a man, it is definitely the best person to become the next head of the family.

"Father, do you know the Pei family? Their family is making up some big farm plan with the prince, it seems that they are going to take refuge in the prince, father, please think, with the knowledge of Master Pei Wei, if there is no sufficient reason, will their Pei family choose to cooperate with the prince so readily? Father, don't forget, their Pei family is also a family, and they will never give up family interests for the prince, so the daughter thinks that the Pei family must have received some guarantees from the prince. ”

"Does my daughter also think that our Yang family should also learn from the Pei family?"

"Well, my daughter is very optimistic about the development of the prince, he is definitely a man of great talent. As the saying goes: it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, and it is easy to add icing on the cake. If our Yang family votes under the command of the prince at this time, not only can we be exempted from the previous responsibility, but we may also be able to get the favor of the prince! ”

"You let your father think about it~!"
