Chapter 60

The next morning, the Xiao Mansion sent someone to inform Xiao Ran that today is the day for the master Xiao Yan to rest, and there was a big happy event in the mansion, and his wife Lin Rong informed Xiao Ran to go back to the mansion for dinner.

After receiving his mother's call, and hearing that there was a happy event in the mansion, Xiao Ran could only happily choose to accept the order.

Xiao Ran asked the servants of the Xiao family to go back first, and told him that he would be there in a while.

Xiao Ran called Xiao Xin and Yingzi, and first told Yingzi to stay at home and just go there this time.

He also told Xiao Xin to tell Xiao An to find a way to get in touch with the He family siblings, and to meet them as soon as he had time.

When Xiao Ran came to Xiao's mansion, Xiao Qing was not at home and said that a friend had invited her on something, so she went out to answer the appointment.

Xiao Chen and his wife were already in the mansion, chatting with Xiao Yan and his wife.

Seeing that Xiao Chen was also there, Xiao Ran asked a little strangely.

"Brother, why are you at home today? Don't tell me you're taking a rest today?"

Seeing Xiao Ran's arrival and hearing Xiao Ran's question, Xiao Chen, who had always been calm and composed, unexpectedly had a look of embarrassment on his face and did not speak immediately.

Before Xiao Chen could answer, Xiao Yan had already answered for him.

"Your elder brother has resigned from the Ministry of Households today. When he went to court in the morning, Emperor Wu issued an order to appoint your elder brother as the servant of the Ministry of Punishment! I will go to report on my duties tomorrow, so I am at home today!"

"It turns out that the happy event that the servant said just now came from the elder brother. Congratulations, the younger brother, to the promotion of the elder brother!"

Seeing Xiao Ran congratulate him, Xiao Chen's face turned red even deeper.

Now Xiao Chen's facial expression is very rich, and he wants to say something to Xiao Ran, but he can't say it.

When Xiao Ran saw Xiao Chen's appearance, he was also a little curious. Xiao Chen had always followed Xiao Yan as an example, and his personality was usually rigorous and calm, but today Xiao Chen was twitchy, with the attitude of a little girl.

Soon Xiao Yan answered the doubts in Xiao Ran's heart.

"When your eldest brother was in charge of the household department, although he usually worked hard and conscientiously, he didn't have any great achievements.

This time he was promoted suddenly, and he thought that the reason was that the royal family feared your strength and wanted to curry favor with you before he was promoted. "

Hearing what his father said, coupled with his elder brother's increasingly ashamed expression, Xiao Ran also understood what his father meant.

My elder brother must think that it is because Xiao Ran has become a great master, and the Emperor Wu is afraid of Xiao Ran's strength.

Xiao Ran was not in the imperial court, Xiao Yan and Lin Zhengyi were both in high positions, that's why he, the elder brother of the great master, was promoted to the position of minister of punishment.

Now Xiao Ran especially wants to tell Xiao Chen that he really thinks too much, although it is true that Xiao Ran is a great master, but if the royal family fears him and pleases him, Xiao Ran can only feel hehe!

Leaving aside the current Martial Emperor, Xiao Ran might not be able to beat him. There must be other hidden cards in the royal family, maybe there is a legendary old monster who surpassed the Dao realm.

Of course, Xiao Ran didn't tell Xiao Chen now.

Xiao Qing didn't come back until noon, and then Xiao Ran's family had lunch together.

Of course, Xiao Ran didn't prepare the meals this time. Although Xiao Ran could cook, it was so decent for a great master to cook himself every time.

After lunch, Xiao Ran looked at his elder brother with the same ashamed expression, which did not change.

Knowing that Xiao Chen's heart had already fallen into it, and it was not easy for a person to become a demon, Xiao Ran decided that he should let him know something.

After making a decision, Xiao Ran stood up and said to Xiao Yan and Xiao Chen that there are some things that need to be discussed in the study together.

Xiao Yan knew that what Xiao Ran wanted to discuss should be important, otherwise he would not have gone to the study and agreed to his request.

After leaving Xiao Qing and Jing Lan to accompany Lin Rong, the father and son came to the study.

The three sat down in the study, Xiao Yan and Xiao Chen waited for Xiao Ran to speak.

"Father doesn't know if you still remember the assassination you suffered years ago?" Xiao Ran asked first.

Xiao Yan also thought of that assassination, and said to Xiao Ran.

"You're talking about that time when your grandfather and I were assassinated together, right?

Of course I remember that I was prepared to hide because of your uncle's reminder, and your grandfather was also unconscious because of the assassination and poisoning.

What are you talking about? "

Next, Xiao Ran told Xiao Yan and Xiao Yan that he and Xiao Xing fought against each other in Huaiyang and the dark night organization and got information about Xiao Yan that they were going to target.

Hearing what Xiao Ran said, Xiao Yan asked aloud.

"It seems that you are responsible for your grandfather's sudden recovery from poisoning, right? Did you find out something?"

Xiao Ran did not choose to hide it, and continued to speak.

"Yes! Grandpa's poison was solved by me. Through my investigation during this time, I also found some information about this dark night organization..."

Next, Xiao Ran told Xiao Yan about his findings, including Xiao Ran's speculation that the leader of the Dark Night Organization might be King Huai.

"What I can't understand now is that King Huai is the brother of Emperor Wu, why would he do such a thing that endangers Qing?"

It was difficult for Xiao Ran to ask, Xiao Yan smiled lightly and said.

"Hey, you're thinking too far ahead. Although King Huai and King Liang are brothers of Emperor Wu, their loyalty to Emperor Wu is different! This is also a secret of the royal family!"

Then Xiao Yan told Xiao Ran and Xiao Chen about this secret.

In Daqing, each generation of emperors will abandon their previous names and call them Emperor Wu.

The Daqing royal family has regulations that each generation of Wuhuang will abdicate before the age of 60, and then enter the royal ancestral land.

The first emperor had five princes back then. Except for the eldest prince who died in the southern barbarian army with the army when he was young, the other princes were all in good health.

When Emperor Wu abdicated, among the remaining princes, except for the third prince who disliked the government, the only ones who were most likely to win the position of great treasure at that time were the second prince Wu Huang Arbitrary, and the fourth prince's concubine Wang Wuyuan.

The royal family is ruthless. When each generation of emperors choose their heirs, they will give them the right to fight for themselves. Only the most capable people can guarantee the prosperity of Daqing.

Back then, Martial Court secretly received support from the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Rites.

In the hands of Wu Duan, only two of the six departments are the household department and the official department.

The two people fought each other in the court, and they fought hard.

However, due to Wu Yuan's greater power, Wu Duan gradually fell behind.

The youngest fifth prince at that time was the current King Liang, who was in charge of the Ministry of Industry in his hands. Because he was born with Emperor Wu and his mother, he has always supported Emperor Wu.

With the support of King Liang, Juan began to have the conditions to fight against Wuyuan.

Wu Yuan's character is headstrong, conceited and willful, while Arbitrary is gentle and courteous.

In the middle of the court, Arbitrary was more appreciated by veterans than Wuyuan, and finally he was supported by the old British Duke who held a lot of power in the army at that time.

Only then did Emperor Wu defeat Wuyuan in one fell swoop and win the throne.

It stands to reason that the struggle for the throne is either you die or I live, but when Wuyuan failed at that time, he immediately handed over all the forces under him to Arbitrary.

Arbitrary also thought of brotherhood, and because of the request of the late emperor who lost his son in the early years, he did not kill Wuyuan, and after he ascended the throne, he was named King Huai and stayed in the capital.
