Chapter XVII: Refusal to Cooperate
When Yuan Heng heard Yang Liang say this, he secretly sighed, he thought it was a difficult request, but he didn't expect that it was just a child who had to discuss it with his father.
In fact, their original plan was to persuade Yang Liang to be a kid first, and then slowly persuade Zhao Yiren through Yang Liang, and now Yang Liang took the initiative to say that he wanted to discuss with Zhao Yiren, and it was too late for him to be happy, so it was equivalent to solving two things at once.
After speaking, Yang Liang planned to take Yuan Heng to Zhao Yiren's courtyard to discuss, Yuan Heng wanted to jump out of the window, and then sneak into Zhao Yiren's courtyard to meet Yang Liang, but Yang Liang took him out of the door directly.
Squire A and Squire B watched in amazement as Yang Liang and a strange man walked out of the room, Yang Liang coughed lightly, and very calmly let them do their own thing, leaving him alone.
After speaking, he was about to leave with Yuan Heng, but he turned his head to look at the clothes on Yuan Heng's body, frowned, and asked the taller attendant A to take a set of his own clothes for Yuan Heng to change.
Although Squire A is taller, he is still only a teenager after all, and his clothes look nondescript and ridiculous on Yuan Heng's body.
But there is no way, Yang Liang thought, he can't let Yuan Heng wear his clothes to swagger in this Zhao Palace, although no one usually looks at his courtyard, but after yesterday's incident, it is inevitable that someone will target him, in case someone sees him go to Zhao Yiren's palace with a person wearing civilian clothes, wouldn't it be cheap King Zhao who has been trying to catch them.
Because of his perennial martial arts practice, Yuan Heng's figure is very tall, and when he wears that set of clothes, he has a bit of King Kong Barbie.
Yang Liang looked at his twisted appearance and couldn't help but laugh out loud. Hearing Yang Liang laugh at him, Yuan Heng's face turned red and black, but he knew that there was no way to do it, who let himself not be long-hearted, and he wore the regular clothes directly when he came in!
Yang Liang just walked out of his courtyard with Yuan Heng.
When Zhao Yiren arranged the yard for him, he deliberately chose a similar location, so he walked for a while, and then turned a corner, and he was about to arrive.
But what he didn't expect was that just as he was about to turn, he bumped into someone.
"Oops!" A delicate voice sounded, Yang Liang rubbed the sore shoulder that was hit, looked at it fixedly, and was shocked. it!
Why is this girl again! The little girl in front of her was none other than the little princess I met yesterday.
I saw that she was rubbing her flushed forehead, looking dumbfounded. She was not surrounded by the very unruly attendant from last time, but followed by a half-sized girl who looked to be about the same age as the attendant A and B.
Yang Liang learned the lesson of yesterday, he saluted properly, and then turned around and planned to leave, not giving the princess a chance to speak, trying to get by.
Unexpectedly, it was still a step too late, and the princess finally came back to her senses and said in a coquettish voice: "Wait a minute, stop." ”
Yang Liang secretly said that it is not good, this girl is so scheming, Yuan Heng's dress is very strange, she asks again, isn't it exposed! But because of her identity, Yang Liang still stopped, pretended to be calm and turned back and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”
The red mark on the little princess's forehead looked even redder after a while, and it was very conspicuous on her white forehead, and it looked like she had been hit hard by the blow just now.
When Yang Liang saw the red mark on her forehead, he felt a little weak for a while, after all, he was the one who knocked others into this.
Although he is only a child now, he is also a little fat man, and it must hurt to hit someone.
Although I don't like this squeamish and complaining little girl, Yang Liang still plans to forgive her this time in line with the principle that she is an adult and doesn't care about little children.
So he said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I just hurt you, are you okay?" ”
The little girl on the opposite side didn't seem to be used to Yang Liang's gentle attitude all of a sudden, and was a little stunned for a while, but she quickly realized that this little fat man, who was disrespectful to herself yesterday, was now caring about herself, so she said arrogantly: "Don't feel sorry, this princess is fine." ”
Yang Lianggang felt that this little girl's silly appearance was a little cute, but in an instant she became that arrogant appearance again, and Yang Lianggang couldn't cry or laugh when she saw it, so she had to ask her patiently: "The princess just called me, is there something wrong?" ”
was asked by Yang Liang like this, and the princess remembered what she was doing today.
Yesterday she heard that the son of the proton of Qin State was taught a lesson by his father at the banquet, and she didn't understand why, but then she heard the reason, saying that it was because she wanted to give him a surname and his refusal was known by her father.
Although the little princess is still just a child, she has been in the center of power since she was a child, and she is more sensitive to power struggles than ordinary adults.
As soon as she thought about it, the matter of giving a surname was just something she said casually, and it was not taken seriously, so the status of the proton of Qin Guo in the palace was very embarrassing, and her father was so embarrassed for a child, it must not be just because of the surname granting.
Although he knew that his father was playing on the topic, the reason why he was embarrassed was still himself, and he heard that Yang Liang would go to Zhao Yiren's courtyard every day after returning from the private school.
So she deliberately waited near Zhao Yiren's courtyard today, and deliberately did not bring the attendant who complained to her father yesterday, thinking about seeing if she could meet Yang Liang and apologize to him in person.
But Tsundere's character is like this, although she wants to apologize seriously, but she is still unforgiving, she still makes a high-minded look, and says: "It's nothing, this princess was just hurt by you." ”
Yang Liang felt that this kid was inexplicable, and originally wanted to fight for a few words, but when he saw Yuan Heng who was cramped on the side, he still patiently continued: "The princess has nothing else to do, so I will leave." ”
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave. Seeing that Yang Liang was leaving, the little princess was a little anxious, but she didn't know how to keep him, Yu Guang noticed that the attendants around Yang Liang were wearing inappropriate clothes, and thought that there was a way.
"Stop!"
Yang Liang stopped and looked back at her, this time he was really a little impatient, thinking, if it doesn't work, I'll run, see what you can do to me!
"You...... Why do the attendants around you wear ill-fitting clothes, is it because the clothing department didn't give you the share you deserve? ”
Yang Liang was shocked when he heard the little princess ask him why Yuan Heng was wearing ill-fitting clothes, and was thinking about how to fool the past, but her next sentence calmed his heart that was about to jump back again. After thinking for a few seconds, he replied, "Back to the princess, he is a newcomer, and he grows relatively fast, and he has not had time to get new clothes." ”
It's a simple reason, but it makes sense.
The princess let out a disappointed "oh", she originally planned that if Yang Liang said that he was bullied by the Ministry of Clothing, she could stand up for him, and this would be a small expression of her apology.
As an adult, Yang Liang could certainly see this little girl's thoughts, but he didn't want to entangle with her anymore, otherwise it would be too wrong to say that it would be too much to say, and if she found out Yuan Heng's identity again, it would be a big trouble.
So before the little princess could react, he hurriedly slipped away with Yuan Heng.
Quickly ran to Zhao Yiren's yard, and when he turned around and saw that the difficult little princess didn't chase after him, Yang Liang breathed a sigh of relief, and Yuan Heng on the side saw him like this, and just wanted to ask him why he was so nervous, Zhao Yiren's voice came from inside the house.
"Zheng'er is here? Come on in. So the two walked in together, Zhao Yiren was about to have lunch, and when he heard that his son was coming, he hurriedly asked the attendant to prepare two more bowls of rice, thinking that he couldn't starve his good son.
"Zheng'er came just in time today, come over to eat with her father." Zhao Yiren didn't raise his head to beckon Yang Liang to sit down, glanced up, noticed that the attendant who followed Yang Liang was exceptionally tall, and thought about how the attendant A grew so fast, and he didn't pay attention to it for a few days, and he grew so tall. Huh!
That's not right!
He looked at it again, where was this Squire A!
It's clearly a tall man I've never seen before, just wearing the clothes of the attendant armor, looking fierce and vicious, and I know at a glance that he is not a good person!
Could it be that his own political son has been held hostage by this person?! Zhao Yiren was shocked, and hurriedly pulled Yang Liang behind him, and then he was about to get the sword.
However, his chubby body is not so flexible to move, and his anxious appearance looks a little funny.
Yang Liang looked at his old father a little speechlessly, he stepped forward to stop him in two steps, and said, "Father, you misunderstood, this is Yuan Heng, a righteous man." ”
Zhao Yiren stopped moving, and he couldn't react for a while, when did his youngest son get involved with the righteous man?
After calming Zhao Yiren's emotions, Yang Liang brought him and Yuan Heng, who was stunned, to the table, and he decided to let the two of them break it by themselves, his stomach happened to be hungry, and let them solve their adult affairs by themselves, and he should eat well as a child.
So Yuan Heng told what happened last night again, "Last night I was a slave of the entourage, and followed those nobles to the palace where the banquet was held, and I wanted to wait for the opportunity to assassinate King Zhao, but I had no choice but to guard it strictly, so I didn't succeed, so after the banquet was over, I sneaked in the palace, and thought of King Zhao's dog thief's dormitory to go to his head." ”
Speaking of this, Yuan Heng paused, and when he mentioned King Zhao, his emotions would be a little excited, and he calmed down for a while, and then continued: "But I am not familiar with the distribution of this Zhao Palace, and I got lost in the palace. ”
And then ...... In the process of escaping, I happened to see the little boy, and when I heard what the little boy said in the hall, I thought that the little boy was a child with quick wisdom, so he ......"
Yuan Heng looked at Yang Liang with a little embarrassment, and then said: "So Yuan knocked out the slaves beside the little boy, and then ......
Hijacked the little boy ......"
"Bold!" Zhao Yiren heard that Yuan Heng had actually held Yang Liang hostage, and slapped the table angrily.
Yuan Heng coughed twice weakly, and said, "Zhao Gongzi, you are angry...... It should also be, this matter was indeed handled inappropriately by Yuan, but it was also forced to be helpless at the time......"
"Can you joke with my son's life out of desperation?
You also said that you saw in the hall how my son responded smartly, then you can see that King Zhao intends to find trouble with my son, if you were caught last night, my son will definitely not escape the responsibility, he is just a six-year-old child, you ...... You ......" Zhao Yiren angrily accused, Yuan Heng knew that he was wrong, but he silently lowered his head and did not make a defense.
After calming down his emotions, Zhao Yiren flicked his sleeves, sat down again, and said coldly: "That's it, since my son is fine, I won't worry about you about this matter for the time being, you can tell me what happened later, and what is your purpose." ”
"Thank you Zhao Gongzi for not blaming, Na Yuan will continue...... The little boy was indeed quick, and made a quick decision to let Yuan take him and the stunned guards back to his courtyard.
Later, Yuan was in a coma for two hours due to his injury, and when he woke up, he felt that staying any longer would bring trouble to the little boy, so he left first. ”
"After I went back last night, I discussed it with my brothers, and I felt that since King Zhao is now interested in targeting the two of you, then why don't we join forces, you and the little prince will do the internal response for us in the palace, and we should cooperate with the outside to take the life of the king of Zhao, after the matter is completed, we will escort you and the little prince back to Qin ......"
Before Yuan Heng's words were finished, Zhao Yiren waved his hand and said, "No need, we don't have the idea of returning to Qin for the time being." ”
Yang Liang looked up at Zhao Yiren and saw that he was raising his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and knew that this guy was lying now.
"Why? Are you willing to be trapped in this palace of King Zhao and depressed for the rest of your life? Yuan Heng asked puzzled.
"This matter has nothing to do with you, if you want to assassinate King Zhao, please find another way by yourself, I won't help!"
Zhao Yiren firmly refused, glanced down at Yang Liang who was eating, and then said, "My son won't either!" ”
"Zhao Gongzi, you ......" Yuan Heng didn't expect Zhao Yiren to not agree to him, he was a little anxious for a while, he discussed with his brothers last night, if he wants to assassinate King Zhao, then convincing Zhao Yiren to do internal response in the palace is the best way for them, originally thought that Zhao Yiren was trapped in the palace of King Zhao for so long, and he must have wanted to return to Qin in his heart, and he promised to escort him back to Qin, he should be very moved.
This is the consequence of seeing things only from your own point of view!
Yang Liang looked at Yuan Heng's puzzled expression, guessed what he was thinking, and couldn't help but sigh secretly. Yuan Heng and they felt that it was already a very exciting condition to help Zhao Yiren get out of Zhao and return to Qin, but they didn't consider whether Zhao Yiren had already found a way out of Zhao State, and if their assassination operation was successful, it would be fine, if it didn't succeed, then in case of the East Window incident, Zhao Yiren would not be able to eat and walk around, and it would also cause a war in Qin and Zhao Erguo.
The more I think about it, the more uneconomical it becomes, Yang Liang feels uncomfortable when he looks at Yuan Heng, their group of people is too selfish, they only care about their own revenge, so don't they care about the safety of others?
Fortunately, he didn't have a hot brain at that time and agreed to him, otherwise if Yuan Heng used him as a handle to blackmail Zhao Yiren, he would really be angry.
Now Zhao Yiren thinks the same way, although he is now a proton, but he still belongs to the ruling class in his bones, and Yuan Heng did not tell him what happened to him and the people in the so-called organization, so he has no way to empathize, let alone help them.
"I think you'd better leave first, we don't need your help, and we don't want to have anything to do with you, please!"
Zhao Yiren raised his hand in the direction of the door and motioned for Yuan Heng to leave.
Yuan Heng didn't want to return in vain, he wanted to say something more, but he didn't know where to speak, so the atmosphere gradually became silent.
Zhao Yiren saw that he refused to leave, and was about to say something more, when he heard Mao Hengcai's voice outside. "Childe, Mao has come to bother again."
