Adoption brings disaster
Chapter 143
Now that the child has grown up, as adults, we naturally have to save his face.
When we came out of the secret room, I was in high spirits and looked gentle, and I spoke politely.
In addition, she would whisper a few words to His Royal Highness Prince Yong from time to time, and they looked even more affectionate. Everyone who saw them would say that they had a good relationship and would praise His Royal Highness Prince Yong for being filial.
If he can be so good to his own lover, he must be as filial to his family elders as lying on ice to catch a carp.
Although I was very close to His Royal Highness Prince Yong for the sake of appearance, in fact, I had already cursed him very badly in my mind.
His Royal Highness Prince Yong has been smart since he was young. He knows that I am a man of my word and would never do anything to go back on my word. He just kept admitting his mistakes and didn't refute a single word.
It is very boring to just curse someone. Besides, you shouldn't hit someone who smiles at you. After cursing for a few words, it will become boring and you will be too lazy to talk about it anymore.
Then I thought that Zhang Ge Lao's affairs were serious matters after all. Although I didn't understand the political situation, I couldn't help but say a few more words, just like a nagging old father.
I said with some concern: "Tell me the truth, this matter of Zhang Gelao has really nothing to do with you?"
Prince Yong was stunned at first, then slowly said, "The cabinet is a powerful place, and every position is fought for by the Crown Prince and I. Originally, with Zhang's qualifications and talents, he was not qualified to join the cabinet, but I don't know how he was selected."
When Zhang Ge Lao entered the cabinet, His Royal Highness Prince Yong was also confused and said with some doubt: "I saw that he was not the Crown Prince's man and had a close relationship with Qianqiu, so I did not try to stop him. After careful consideration, it can only be considered that he was lucky."
As a teacher, I don't believe in luck except for accidents, and I also said: "In this treacherous capital, and at this critical moment in the fight for the throne, if you say that you got into the cabinet just by luck, I'm afraid it's not that simple."
Chongguang was also well-versed in the intrigues of the court, so naturally he didn't believe it. He said, "At first, I also thought it was a secret trick of the prince, and I was sure there was some conspiracy behind it. But after sending people to investigate carefully, it turned out that it was indeed Zhang Gelao who was lucky.
His Royal Highness Prince Yong chuckled and said, "A few days ago, Lord Zhang found a small pot of monkey wine from somewhere and presented it to the emperor. The emperor was naturally very pleased to receive the wine. He said that Lord Zhang was extremely loyal and had raised a capable child like Qianqiu. His character and talent were also very strong, so he was selected."
After hearing this, I thought to myself, could it be that it was really just luck that Lord Zhang got into the cabinet? But I always felt that something was wrong. He had not been in the capital for a long time, so he really knew nothing about the affairs of the court. For a moment, I couldn't figure out what was wrong.
After thinking for a long time without any results, he could only say pertinently: "Although Mr. Zhang has some abilities, he is not extremely capable. His character is average and not particularly outstanding. Otherwise, he would not have been so easily caught in so many mistakes."
After saying that, he sighed again, pretending to be sad, and then said, "He and I are father and son. I can't just watch him get into trouble. Why don't I find a way to get him down, so that he won't end up with his head and body separated and the family implicated."
Given the prestige and ability of Lord Zhang, many people were dissatisfied with him, so it was not difficult to bring him down. After Prince Yong agreed, I no longer cared about it and lived peacefully in Prince Yong's mansion. I won't mention it anymore.
It is said that these servants all serve people according to their status. Seeing that Prince Yong respects me very much, the servants naturally put their heart into it and are eager to serve him with utmost care.
In this way, I was quite happy living in Prince Yong's Mansion, but I didn't know why Xiao Lang came to trouble me every day.
But I don't care. After all, he is just a strategist. He has no power or influence and doesn't know martial arts. He can only use his words to mock me.
One day, I was lazily basking in the sun in the garden when Xiao Lang came up to me and asked, "Your Highness Qianqiu, are you admiring the flowers?"
I was a little annoyed with Xiao Lang and didn't want to pay any attention to him, so I stood up and was about to leave.
When Xiao Lang saw me, he thought I was afraid of him and laughed out loud, "Your Highness Qianqiu is so beautiful that you're not sure if you're admiring the flowers or if they're admiring you."
Blindly giving in isn't my style, and arguing with them would be beneath my dignity. Just then, I heard Prince Yong and Ah Er approaching. I didn't get angry, but simply smiled and said, "I see you wandering around this garden every day. I imagine you're quite relaxed. Perhaps Prince Yong sympathizes with your frail health and wants to spare you from overwork."
"You." Xiao Lang didn't expect that the vase in his mind would dare to retort. He was a little furious and didn't know how to ridicule her.
I didn't give Xiao Lang a chance to mock him. Instead, I leaned closer to him, as if I had smelled some intoxicating fragrance. I looked a little obsessed, and said meaningfully, "Or do you have other intentions in mind by taking time out to look for me for several days in a row?"
After that, I slid my fingers up and down his face again, like a pervert, and said, "I like delicate and tender pretty boys like you the most. Why don't we find a place to talk in detail and talk about something interesting."
Xiao Lang was so frightened when he saw the sudden change in the scene that his teeth were chattering. He stared at me in horror for a long time before squeezing out a sentence, "You, you, you, it's not right for you to be like this."
There was something adorable about Xiao Lang. His panicked look made me want to tease him. I acted sad and anxious and said, "You said I was using my beauty to seduce you, I didn't object. You said I was more beautiful than flowers, and I also acknowledged it. I just admired your beauty, isn't that right?"
Xiao Lang no longer had the intention to cause trouble for me. His eyes were full of disgust towards me and a feeling that it was not worth it for His Royal Highness Prince Yong.
"His Royal Highness Prince Yong loves you deeply. How can you take advantage of his beauty and act recklessly?"
Xiao Lang's accusations made me laugh. I looked at the rockery in the distance and asked, "A'er, do you think Xiao Lang is right? I'm relying on my beauty to act recklessly, which is a disaster for the country and the people."
When Prince Yong and A'er heard me ask, they knew that I had discovered them, so they stopped hiding and appeared in front of us in a moment.
Seeing me like this, Xiao Lang knew that I was doing this for King Yong to see, and he was already complaining in his heart. Seeing King Yong's unfriendly expression, he was even more frightened and lowered his head, not daring to say a word.
Ah Er's face was even more bitter, and it looked like he wanted to eat Xiao Lang.
This scene was even more hilarious, so I asked again, "Zhongguang Er, I'm asking you questions, why don't you answer me? Is there something you can't say in front of Xiaolang?"
Ah Er didn't know how to answer, so he could only glance at His Royal Highness Prince Yong, then at me, and tentatively said, "His Royal Highness Qianqiu is handsome and graceful."
Seeing that His Royal Highness Prince Yong was not displeased, Ah Er continued boldly and said, "He is unparalleled in the world."
"That's not right." His Royal Highness Prince Yong shouted coldly, "Qianqiu's beauty is unmatched before and will never be surpassed. It's not unparalleled in the world, it should be unrivaled in ancient and modern times."
I have heard a lot of compliments over the years, but when Chongguang complimented me, his eyes were particularly sincere. If I hadn't known myself well, I would have believed what he said, which was unparalleled in history.
Although these words are all compliments, they do not affect my very good mood after hearing them.
I laughed heartily and patted Xiao Lang's shoulder, looking at him as if he were my daughter-in-law, and said, "Xiao Lang is not bad either. His skin is as smooth as cream, as smooth as a baby's, and his face is as rosy as a peach. I feel pity for him just by looking at him."
After saying that, he pinched Xiao Lang's face with a lustful look.
This series of actions scared Xiao Lang, and he quickly took several steps back.
Ah Er lowered his head, not knowing what he was looking for. At this moment, he seemed to be blind and deaf, unable to see or hear.
His Royal Highness Prince Yong stared at us with a dark face the whole time, as if he was looking at an adulterer and an adulteress.
The old man looked at his daughter-in-law and found her more and more beautiful. The more he looked at her, the more he liked her. I couldn't help but say, "I lived in the deep palace for a long time in my early years, and in recent years I have traveled around the world. This is the first time I have seen someone as handsome as Xiaolang. When the world is settled and you and Chongguang are married, I will definitely give you a big red envelope as a token of my gratitude as an elder."
After hearing this, Xiao Lang, who was originally terrified, immediately glanced at His Royal Highness Prince Yong shyly, then lowered his head with a red face, and spoke even more incoherently.
His Royal Highness Prince Yong's face, which was already gloomy, became even gloomier. He thought that I must have exposed their ambiguity, and he felt both happy and annoyed.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" His Royal Highness Prince Yong asked in his mind angrily.
I didn't care that His Royal Highness Prince Yong was trying to hide his mistake. I took off the jade token from my waist and handed it to Xiao Lang to show his identity as the master of the palace.
When His Royal Highness Prince Yong saw it, he quickly snatched the jade token away, his face turning almost as black as ink.
I was a little unhappy and said, "What are you doing? This is the first time I meet my daughter-in-law, so I have to give her some gift. What are you doing with it?"
Prince Yong didn't say anything to me. He just kicked Ah Er, who was still looking for a partner, and said impatiently, "This is how you manage the affairs of this mansion. There's no one to wait on guests when they enter the mansion, and you actually let them into the backyard. Fortunately, there are no women in the backyard, otherwise it would ruin our reputation. How many lives do you have to forgive me for this?"
Ah Er didn't dare to refute now, he just kowtowed repeatedly to admit his guilt and accept the punishment.
His Royal Highness Prince Yong was furious. He kicked Ah Er and scolded him, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and personally accompany Xiao Lang around the palace. If you neglect this distinguished guest of mine, I'll skin you alive."
Prince Yong ignored Ah Er's reaction and turned to Xiao Lang politely, "The servants in the mansion have failed to entertain you well. I will personally apologize after today. However, I have important matters to attend to today, so I will not stay with you for long."
Then he grabbed me, lifted me onto his shoulders and headed towards the house.
The change happened so quickly that I was a little confused for a moment. By the time I reacted, His Royal Highness Prince Yong had already grabbed my vital point. As long as I struggled or wanted to say something, a stream of true energy would rush into my body, and I would instantly feel extremely numb, and my whole body would collapse.
His Royal Highness Prince Yong carried me into the house in public. I could imagine that those strange rumors would spread throughout the capital tomorrow. I was so scared that I kept begging for mercy in my mind. I felt so humble.
"After so many years, Qianqiu still doesn't understand my feelings." His Royal Highness Prince Yong looked at me lovingly and said.
Seeing this, I was afraid that my anus would be in jeopardy today. Being pinned down by His Royal Highness Prince Yong, I felt so terrified and ashamed that I couldn't help crying.
When King Yong saw me crying, he not only did not show any pity, but became even more crazy. He grabbed my wrist and flipped me over with just a slight flick.
Then the true energy flowed, and my clothes slipped off one by one. His Royal Highness Prince Yong was not so gentle to me. He just shouted softly, and the clothes worth thousands of gold turned into powder and could never be put back together again.
His Royal Highness Prince Yong and I were very frank with each other. He had practiced martial arts for many years, so he had an excellent body, bronze skin, and every muscle was just right, not too big to be disgusting, but you could easily see the power contained within.
Seeing such a good body, I can't help but drool. Don't get me wrong, I'm just envious, and I definitely don't have any weird thoughts.
His Royal Highness Prince Yong raised his head, and his face moved closer to me little by little. I closed my eyes in fear. The moment His Royal Highness Prince Yong's head touched my forehead, my whole body couldn't help but tremble.
"Don't panic, Qianqiu. I won't force you." His Royal Highness Prince Yong said with pity in my ear.
"Since you won't force me, what are you doing now?" I shouted in my mind.
"You were injured before, and it hasn't healed yet. If you don't get treatment, you'll suffer in the future." Prince Yong said dotingly, "You once used the Dual Cultivation Technique to save my life. Today, I will also use the Dual Cultivation Technique to heal your injuries."
After saying that, without caring whether I agreed or not, he started to practice his skills to heal my injuries.
When practicing the dual cultivation technique, I had no idea of the time. It was already the middle of the night. I only realized that the dual cultivation was over when I heard the voices of the guards outside.
The injury has healed a lot, and my hearing is better than before. I can hear the guards talking outside clearly, as if they were speaking right next to my ear.
"Your Highness is truly amazing. This has been going on for five or six hours straight."
"It's true that the prince is powerful, but don't you think His Highness Qianqiu is even more powerful? After being tormented for so long, I'm afraid that place is unusable."
"Hehehehehe, His Highness Qianqiu's White Rat Magic Skill is not in vain. He can recover while being injured. Maybe he will become more resistant to attacks and nothing else." Several people laughed lewdly.
..............................
The nonsense they said made my face burn. I stood up and kicked His Royal Highness Prince Yong's butt hard, cursing, "How dare the guards of Prince Yong's mansion talk nonsense about their master?"
"This gang is too unruly. Don't worry, Qianqiu, I will teach them a lesson."
After saying this, he didn't even put on his clothes, but just wrapped the bed sheet around his waist and ran out. Then he heard His Royal Highness Prince Yong say smugly: "You are talking nonsense about the master. His Royal Highness Qianqiu will punish you. Go find Ah Er to receive the punishment."
Good man, this is not to teach them a lesson, this is clearly to tell everyone that what you said is really good, spread it everywhere.
I was a little angry, but there was nothing I could do about it, so I could only let him go and not mention it.
Predict what will happen in the future, and listen to the next decomposition.
