Chapter 129 The Princess of Yan Wants to Overturn the Table 12

"Not yet. Just don't get involved after what happens, and especially take good care of my mother so she doesn't get taken advantage of! After this is over, I'll find a chance to come back and visit my parents."

"Okay!" Although Marquis Zhongyong felt that his daughter's words were just to comfort him, he really couldn't do anything!

After he finished speaking, he suddenly thought of his two grandsons and asked, "If the King of Yan is imprisoned, the adults can still endure it, but what about the two children who are so young? Do you want me to arrange anything?"

Yuan Feng frowned, feeling really sorry for the original owner's family!

Not to mention how those two ungrateful little bastards framed their mother in Prince Yan's Mansion in their previous life.

After the Prince of Yan ascended the throne, within a year he framed the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery for collaborating with the enemy through the original owner's cheap uncle. At this time, the two ungrateful little bastards did not think that they were their grandfather's family. Instead, they ran to the original owner who was already in the cold palace in indignation and cursed the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery for his treason!

The original owner was so angry that he fainted!

In this life, ever since Prince Yan returned from the border, the two ungrateful little bastards have never once come to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion to visit my grandfather's family.

They completely forgot that when Prince Yan was not in the capital, the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery would visit them at the palace whenever she had time and bring them all kinds of gifts!

At that time, the Prince of Yan had been away at the border for two years, and he had four children and two concubines in his palace. Although there were many servants, as the mistress of the palace, the original owner had to worry about everything inside and outside.

Sometimes there are always things that I cannot take care of, and I don’t have enough time to spend with my two children.

It would be more accurate to say that the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery came to help her daughter rather than to visit her, and also to take care of her grandson and granddaughter.

"Father, these two children are not just your grandchildren, they are also the children of the royal family. Even if they are imprisoned, the royal family will make arrangements for them. You don't have to worry about it!"

The Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery thought about it and agreed. Besides the Crown Prince having no heirs, the Empress only had these few grandchildren. She would definitely have arrangements for them when the time came, so he wouldn't have to worry about it. So he agreed.

"Oh, by the way, Father, when I came in, I ran into Third Uncle leaving the house. Why is he here?"

"Nothing, I expelled your uncle from the clan."

"what?"

Marquis Zhongyong told Yuan Feng the whole story.

It turned out that ever since Yuan Feng came back last time and told Marquis Zhongyong about his uncle's collusion with Prince Yan's mansion, Marquis Zhongyong had been prepared to deal with the matter properly, otherwise it would sooner or later implicate the entire mansion.

But of course, this wasn't an excuse to start a fight, so the Duke of Zhongyong investigated whether he had committed any other offenses. If so, he'd use this as an excuse to kick him out. If not, he'd just keep a close eye on him.

The Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's mansion was like many other families in the capital, with legitimate sons taking up official positions and illegitimate sons managing the household's finances. Of course, this did not apply to those with exceptional abilities or no abilities at all.

The original owner's uncle was this kind of person, and he was in charge of the family's farms and shops.

During his investigation, the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery discovered that his brother had been embezzling a lot of money over the years. That would have been fine, but he also used the Marquisate's reputation to bully others, including some high-ranking officials.

Although they are all minor officials with no family background, this is still bad enough. You, a commoner, dare to do such a thing. Of course you are relying on the power of the Marquis' Mansion!

That's why they invited a few elders to come and expel the cheap brother from the clan.

At this moment, the cheap uncle never dreamed that things would turn out like this! Before today, he was still dreaming of a meteoric rise to fame!

But my cheap uncle still has confidence in his heart. I might be able to do better if I leave the Marquis' Mansion! After all, the Prince of Yan values ​​him so much. Lord Wang beside the Prince of Yan told him that he is the only one who understands the whole Zhongyong Marquis' Mansion. As long as he works well for the Prince of Yan, he will not be treated unfairly in the future!

After settling his family, the cheap uncle went to the Prince of Yan's Mansion to ask for an audience with Lord Wang. Of course, there was no result... He was kicked out before he even saw the man!

The cheap uncle who was expelled from the clan was of no value to the King of Yan and his staff, so they naturally would not waste their time on him.

Without the protection of the Marquis' Mansion, how could the people he had bullied before let him go? In short, the cheap uncle lived in dire straits for the rest of his life.

Of course, this is all for later.

......

On this day, the King of Yan brought a batch of food and fodder to his private military camp in Xishanling.

After the handover, he called several leaders together. When he was about to give some instructions, someone came to report that many people were about to go up the mountain.

King Yan was stunned. So many people were going up the mountain? They couldn't be here for sightseeing, could they?

Compared with Xishanling, Taohuapo on the east side of the city has scenery and temples, and it is a good place for young men and women to have fun.

Xishanling is located twenty miles away from the capital. There is no scenery on the mountain and it is not suitable for building any temples, so it is very deserted.

Otherwise, King Yan would not have chosen to raise troops here.

"how many people?"

"A lot of people?"

"......" The King of Yan wanted to kick the soldier who reported the news to death. "How much is a lot? Tell me carefully!"

"Yes, sir! I didn't see how many people there were. Our team was originally going to relieve the patrol at the foot of the mountain. I went to the restroom, so I walked a little slower. As a result, on the way down, I saw from afar that several people patrolling the mountain were arrested. Several people from our team who went down first were also arrested. I knew something was wrong, so I ran back to report it."

Wang, the staff member, asked, "What kind of attire should the arrestee wear?"

"There are all kinds of outfits."

"......" This soldier is also a talented person. The staff member surnamed Wang waved his hand and said, "You go down first."

After the soldiers left, the aide surnamed Wang said to the Prince of Yan: "Your Majesty, something is wrong!"

The King of Yan was already panicking at this point. He knew something was amiss! But according to the messenger, these people didn't look like they were out to arrest him after discovering he was raising private soldiers.

So who are these people?

"What should we do now?"

"Your Highness, those people are all at the foot of the mountain. We can't leave now even if we want to. Besides, even if we leave, if any of those captured soldiers know your identity, this matter will be difficult to resolve peacefully."

"so what?"

Wang, the staff member, was very decisive. "Their clothing doesn't show they belong in a military camp. Besides, there are only a few dozen people at the foot of the mountain. We have two thousand soldiers here. Why not just kill everyone at the foot of the mountain? This will prevent any news from leaking out, and it can also be considered a military exercise!"

......

The King of Yan thought it made sense, so without further ado, he immediately assembled his troops and headed down the mountain.

Wang's aide originally wanted to say that there were only a few dozen people and the prince didn't need to go in person.

But then he thought again, there have been frequent incidents on the mountain recently, sometimes people are embezzling money, sometimes food and grass are missing. If the prince can take action personally, it will also stabilize the morale of the army, so he didn't say anything more.
