Shang Yuan didn't want to have too much involvement with Huo Congran, the big cannon fodder, but he couldn't refuse when he looked at the handsome young nobleman in front of him.

Huo Congran took a deep look at Shang Yuan: "Do you believe this is your original intention, A Yuan, if you have any worries, you can talk to Gu."

Hearing this, Shang Yuan was a little bit dumbfounded.

How much did the original owner love the prince, so that the people in front of him would feel that even if they divorced, it was the original owner's forced choice.

Shang Yuan said honestly: "The only concern I have these days is the engagement with His Highness. Now that the engagement has been dissolved, I have no worries at all."

Huo Congran looked at Shang Yuan's unwavering eyes, and felt unprecedented panic in his heart. He tentatively said: "Ah Yuan, I know that you are not for the so-called power, have you heard any rumors?"

Shang Yuan didn't want to get entangled with the cannon fodder man in this book: "...you and I have no engagement, and it's inconvenient for His Highness to come and go now, so hurry back."

Huo Congran's face finally changed slightly after being told by Shang Yuan, and after a while he suddenly asked, "Ah Yuan, why didn't you act according to what I said in the letter?!"

Shang Yuan listened to this reasonable tone, smiled and said: "Oh? Why should I obey His Highness?"

Huo Congran lowered his eyes and said: "Gu... Gu has always regarded you as a princess, as the closest person."

Shang Yuan's smile became more mocking: "So you let your princess drug others?"

"Who told you to really..." Huo Congran said with a gloomy face: "Didn't you say to attack him when he was distracted? How could I be willing to let you and others..."

The person in front of him looked like Mr. Pianpian, but what he said made Shang Yuan feel physically uncomfortable.

Shang Yuan said coldly: "I'm really sorry, you have never made me distracted, and I naturally have no way of distinguishing, but I think you and Shang Que are in love with each other, he is familiar with this, why don't you Let him go?"

These few words made Huo Congran's face turn from red to white, from white to gray.

What does it mean to never be distracted?

Shang Yuan loves himself so much, shouldn't he be fascinated by his breathing, laughing and making trouble?

Huo Congran used to think that Shang Yuan was at his fingertips, but now he couldn't figure it out more and more: "A Yuan, if you are jealous and sad, you can tell me in private, but now the resignation of the engagement has alarmed His Majesty, and it will be hard to get over it..."

Huo Congran roughly guessed that it was Shang Yuan who found out about him and Shang Que, gave up the plan, and lost his temper too much.

Huo Congran took a few steps closer, trying to hug the young man in front of him: "Things are impermanent, you are the person I trust the most, how could this kind of thing be done to others? A Yuan, I am in danger now, if you are really ruthless to me , I have no regrets about retiring the engagement, but I know your heart, so don't get angry for a while..."

"It's not angry." Shang Yuan stepped back coldly and said, "Instead, it was before, maybe it was your illusion, Your Highness."

Huo Congran was stunned: "Wrong... an illusion?"

The slightly pointed and thin chin of the person in front of him was the same as before, showing a bit of frailty.

The temperament of the eyebrows, but they are different from each other.

Shang Yuan fixedly looked at Huo Congran's angry, bewildered, shocked eyes.

"The eldest son of the Duke of Wei, as usual, will marry the most powerful man in the world. At that time, you were the crown prince, and you will rule the world in the future. My heart and trust are naturally on His Highness."

"But His Highness is no longer a prince, but just a precarious prince."

"Your Highness has failed my expectations. I'm sorry, but I can only fail His Highness's trust in me."

Huo Congran's face was covered with frost, and he looked at the young man in disbelief.

The boy's eyelashes are long and slender, and the exposed tip of his nose is crimson, which makes people unable to take their eyes off.

In the past, Shang Yuan would lower his head when he looked at him, but now his eyes are calm, like a cold spring in a mountain stream.

In the past, they only knew that Shang Yuan was good-looking, but they didn't know that he was so beautiful in the world.

But what he said pierced his heart like a sharp knife.

Huo Congran's complexion changed slightly, and he squinted his eyes and said: "A Yuan...you are the princess of this king. Since you have a marriage contract, you have been a grasshopper on the same rope with this king. If you don't want to be my princess, Is there another way out?"

"Your Highness, be careful what you say. The crown prince is gone, so where is the crown princess?" Shang Yuan just wanted to get rid of the crown prince's entanglement, and raised his chin deliberately: "I became the crown prince to become the queen in the palace. Today's majesty is not you. , even if I have someone I like, I still admire His Majesty who is not yet married!"

These words were just for Shang Yuan to cover up the original owner's friendship with the prince. After all, now that the prince has been overthrown, he proposed to withdraw the engagement, it must be for the sake of power.

As long as he is convinced that he loves power, others will only lament that he was underserved for power before, but they will not suspect others of making big changes.

Falling in love with power is much more comfortable than falling in love with a scumbag who uses himself as a stand-in.

As for the way forward, Shang Yuan has also thought about it, it is best to find a "marriage" as soon as possible as a cover, marry and follow her husband, and the sky will be far away from the emperor.

The virtuous king stood in the courtyard of the Duke of Wei, sizing up the young man as if he didn't know him. After a long while, he smiled and said, "Ah Yuan, it's not easy to go back in this world. If you want to leave this king and climb another high branch, you have to see clearly." There is no place for you!"

He leaned over and said coldly in Shang Yuan's ear: "After all, everyone in the capital knows that the eldest son of the merchant has deep roots and deep roots in love for the prince!"

Huo, with such a change of face, the gentle and moist young man just now looked like a white-cut villain.

Shang Yuan bowed expressionlessly and said: "This is my private matter, so don't bother Your Highness."

After saying that, he left without looking back, Huo Congran looked at his back and murmured: "A Yuan..."

But the young man who used to be full of his heart and eyes is now unwilling to give even a glance back.

The marriage was withdrawn, but Wei Guogong was wilted.

In Wei Guogong's heart, this eldest son has long been a grasshopper on the same line as the prince. If something happens to the prince, his son should follow him, and it will be settled once and for all.

But now that the crown prince is not dead, he has also been named a virtuous king. This is a lifesaver!

You must know that the ancestor of the state of Wei was originally an important minister of the founding of the country. After the court was stabilized, many important officials were bloodbathed. However, the ancestor of the state of Wei escaped the catastrophe because of his marriage with the royal family. — and a royal marriage.

The Duke of Wei's mansion is rich in beauties, and the eldest son has always been the best candidate for the queen. There is even a saying in the market that "the son of a merchant wins the world".

Unexpectedly, in Shang Yuan's generation, a once-in-a-hundred-year-old Yan King rebelled against him from a bitterly cold place and fought all the way to the capital.

Since the crown princess has nothing to do, it is also a good thing to pick up a princess.

But as soon as the emperor stepped forward, he really made the elder son cancel the marriage.

When the emperor was around, he didn't dare to say anything, but after the emperor left, he couldn't help blowing his nostrils for Shang Yuan to listen to.

"The folk customs in this dynasty are open. Even parents can't force people to get married. Now that the Holy Majesty has resigned the engagement, it's useless even if you blow the elephant into the sky."

Seeing his son's disrespectful words, the Duke of Wei became more and more annoyed: "You are presumptuous... This Duke's mansion can't tolerate you anymore. You don't want to be a virtuous princess? Well, then you should marry someone else as soon as possible!"

He wanted to use this to vent his anger. After all, the merchant's vision is quite high, and he couldn't find a suitable person for a while. Unexpectedly, Shang Yuan nodded and said: "Success, then please go and find someone for your son!"

Duke Wei: "...you are a gentleman after all, can you be more reserved?"

In the original book, men are divided into two categories, one is the normal career of the imperial examination, and the other is the man who married and obeyed his husband.

Duke Wei's sons have always taken the second path, and the original owner has always been educated by the queen. If he wants to leave the capital quickly, it is best to "marry".

"I actually think that the Eldest Young Master's thinking this time is more transparent than my husband's!" After returning to the room, Mrs. Wei Guogong said softly: "Husband, what do you think His Majesty is today? Moody, unpredictable, Ever since he came to Beijing, he hasn't done any blood at the vegetable market... As for King Xian, when he was in the cold palace today, he made a lot of stumbling blocks, causing His Majesty to die several times..."

"With His Majesty's temperament, how long does Husband think the virtuous king can last?"

Duke Wei was sweating coldly when he heard it: "I'm ashamed, I don't see it as well as a woman like you."

He only said that His Majesty cares about the brotherhood and forgets the past, but His Majesty is notoriously moody, if he remembered his old enemy that day...

Wei Guogong said: "From your point of view, what will happen to Shang Yuan's marriage?"

"I think, the sooner the better."

Wei Guogong calmed down and nodded silently.

Although he didn't feel sorry for the eldest son, he still wanted him to marry high and raise his head.

It's just that after all the troubles now, there is definitely no hope of marrying into the royal family.

It's okay to let the face of Duke Wei's mansion go for a while, the most important thing is to let this scourge out first.

In this dynasty, marrying a son is like marrying a daughter, and the water that is poured out will no longer have anything to do with the Duke of Wei.

Duke Wei stroked the back of his beloved wife's hand: "Rou'er, you need to worry about this matter, let that evil person get out of the house as soon as possible, and the three of us can live a more stable life."

Mrs. Guo's wife narrowed her beautiful eyes: "It is my greatest wish to be able to solve my husband's worries and problems."

On the second day, Mrs. Wei Guogong started to find someone to discuss Shang Yuan's marriage.

She is so impatient, of course she has her reasons.

Shang Yuan is the quasi-princess concubine and the eldest son of Duke Wei's mansion, occupying this title, Duke Wei can only bring any noble relatives with him, and Shang Que doesn't even have a serious position.

Shang Yuan, the former concubine of the crown prince, left the house as soon as possible, and also made room for Shang Que as soon as possible.

The matchmaker was used to the secrets in the backyard of the rich and powerful in the capital, she smiled and looked at Mrs. Guo and said, "I don't know what kind of husband Madam wants to choose for you?"

Mrs. Guo sighed softly: "Hey, the eldest son of our mansion was promised to the former prince before, but now he has retired, so it can't be too bad if he remarries."

"Ouch ma'am, you can't say that." The matchmaker is so clever, she knew what to say when she saw Mrs. Guo's eyes: "If your son has never promised to marry, then everything is easy to say, but in this world... ... Tsk tsk, he, a person who is related to the royal family, not only cannot raise his status, but also makes others avoid him! To be honest, if it is not for the close relationship with the Duke's mansion, plus your son Her appearance is peerless, I don't even want to accept this marriage, for fear of smashing the signboard!"

"I see your son, don't pick and choose, take advantage of your young age and be able to have children, just go out as soon as possible!"

The Duke's wife pretended to wipe the corners of her eyes: "That's all up to you to worry about. With you in charge, I'm not afraid of the Duke of the Kingdom saying that I was the one who demanded hard on his motherless child."

Now that the capital is in turmoil, Shang Yuan is at a disadvantage after retiring his marriage. Most of the wealthy families will choose to wait and see, and the man who can be found is naturally much worse.

She specifically picked this time to talk about marriage, and it was also for this reason.

"One more thing, the girl in our mansion, Jian Jia, is fifteen now." The Duke's wife said in a low voice, "You should also pay attention to it, talk about marriage as soon as possible."

The matchmaker nodded knowingly, turned around and left.

Mrs. Duke looked at the back of the matchmaker walking away, and said with a sneer: "It is a good thing for Shang Yuan to resign. If you don't want to marry the prince, then marry someone else. I thought he was the queen's fate. If I didn't think about it, I would be unlucky."

The mother-in-law beside her snorted: "His mother is a hard-working person, what good fortune can their brothers and sisters have. If I want to talk about the marriage of the Duke's mansion, it depends on our son."

In the main hall of the palace, Huo Rong sat on a chair and slowly drank the herbal tea in his hand.

Last night, the all-pervasive little work came again.

The eyes filled with water vapor were not as cold as before, the corners of the eyes were flushed, and the lustrous white body was tightly wrapped around his side.

Vaguely, the crimson plum blossom imprint on the chest became more and more clear.

Like red plums and falling snow, it is extremely gorgeous, but it seems deja vu.

In the past few days, Zhan Ling has been investigating the clues left by the meticulous work.

Zhan Ling said: "I have already caught up with the trace of the meticulous work. According to the search along the way where he got off the car, I have roughly locked the area. It should be in Huai'an Fang, Dongcheng..."

Also in Huaianfang?

Huo Rong's eyes dimmed, and an unbelievable thought gradually emerged again.

Zhan Ling was still reporting: "The secret work is probably still in the Huai'an workshop. There are only more than a hundred people in the workshop. After a little search by the subordinates, no suspicious person was found. But don't worry, your Majesty, as long as he is in the capital, there will be nowhere to escape."

Huo Rong said slowly: "This little thing disappeared after hiding in Huai'an Fang. Obviously someone came to meet him. Maybe it even came to a golden cicada to escape its shell."

Zhan Ling pondered these words carefully: "Your Majesty already has a calculation in mind?"

"That man," Huo Rong narrowed his eyes dangerously: "It always reminds me of an old friend."

An old man who made him gnash his teeth.

Huo Rong rubbed the jade pendant, and said slowly: "You said, if someone who betrayed you sees that you are in a high position and tries to make up for it, what should you do?"

Zhan Ling's eyes flashed sharply: "Of course it must be removed as soon as possible, so that the shame can be avenged."

"It's just death, it's too boring." Huo Rong rubbed the jade pendant with his fingertips, as if he had discovered something extremely interesting: "The best way to get rid of shame," is to lure that person into your camp, and then He is like a fish out of water, and he is not at your mercy. "

He wants to let Shang Yuan enter the palace to become the palm of his hand, but even if it is fishing, he also wants the fish to take the bait willingly. Now before the hook is hooked, Shang Yuan took the initiative to swim with his tail to show his favor, which surprised him.

If you don't fish to eat clean, you will feel sorry for your former self.

The coldness in his tone made Zhan Ling tremble uncontrollably.

"By the way, my subordinates also found a small clue." Zhan Ling hurriedly said, "It's related to Mr. Shang in Huai'an Square."

Huo Rong's breath stagnates: "Huh?"

"His valet went to buy wound medicine early in the morning." Zhan Ling said, "He also said that his master was bitten by a wild dog."

He remembered that the coachman said that Xi Zuo who slipped out that day was also bitten by a wild dog.

The corners of Huo Rong's lips curled up dangerously: "Did he not be in the capital that night?"

"People who support Duke Wei's mansion say that the eldest son has been learning the rules in the palace in order to prepare for his wedding..."

Huo Rong's face sank: "Who did that little thing work for?"

"This person is working for the people in the capital, but the power in the capital is deeply rooted, and the subordinates are still not sure."

Huo Rong's eyes were slightly cold: "Go and find out who that little thing works for, and why he entered my camp that night."

If this person was really seduced by climbing the bed, why did he leave without saying goodbye and hide on purpose?

"You have been in Huai'an Square these days, what's happening in Duke Wei's mansion?"

Zhan Ling said: "There is nothing wrong with Duke Wei's mansion, it's just that after his family's eldest son and the virtuous king divorced, they are looking for someone impatiently, and the subordinates saw the matchmaker coming in and out..."

A haze flashed across Huo Rong's face, and his eyes gradually turned dark.Since entering Beijing, he has noticed that Shang Yuan deliberately flatters and approaches him.

I thought Shang Yuan was wagging his tail to bite the hook, but he just passed by and sniffed?

Probably because he lives in the palace and is not easy to get close to, so he dares to make other people's ideas! ?

"Zhan Ling, I'm going out of the palace and going to Huai'anfang to stay for a while." Huo Rong coldly raised his hand and pressed Zhan Ling who wanted to persuade him: "I have a lot of ways to make people in the court shut up, but once you come Time is running out, I can't afford to spend it with them, and secondly, I have just ascended the throne, and I don't want to kill too much, you hurry up and finish this matter!"

Zhan Ling was startled and said, "This... But where does His Majesty go to rest in a hurry? It is said that the son of a daughter cannot sit still..."

But he wondered in his heart, could it be that His Majesty went to Huai'an Square this time to capture that little work himself?

"The closer the bait is, the easier it is for the prey to take the bait." Huo Rong said coldly, "If I miss the appointment, wouldn't it be a disappointment to my old friend."

Zhan Ling bowed his hands and obeyed: "I will make arrangements now."

But I was thinking in my heart, I don't know what the shocking case is, so I would trouble Your Majesty to personally use it as bait...

That night, the Qianyuan Hall was caught on fire, due to the timely rescue, no one was injured or injured, but this bedroom could no longer be lived in after all.

The minister thought that the emperor would change the palace to rest, but Huo Rong proposed to leave the palace.

At this juncture, no one dares to touch the mold and refute.

The news that the emperor was leaving the palace immediately spread throughout the capital.

Shang Yuan also knew the news, but he only thought that the emperor was going to live in the palace temporarily, and he didn't take it to heart.

Until the palace summoned Wei Guogong.

"Mr. Wei, you must have heard about the bedroom. Now that the national treasury is in short supply, I can't bear to pursue the people's power." Huo Rong looked at him, and slowly tapped the table with his fingertips: "This bedroom, let alone talk about it." It takes more than a month to repair."

"It's ridiculous to say that I am the king of a country, but I don't even have a place to rest."

Duke Wei: "???"

In all fairness, he has no friendship with the new emperor.

There is a fire in the palace, if your majesty doesn't go to the Ministry of Households to complain, what's the matter with him, the official of the country?

After thinking about it for a while, he immediately understood.

Among the noble relatives in the capital, Duke Wei's mansion is notoriously rich.

It is rare for His Majesty to be so kind, and most likely want him to pay for it.

"Your Majesty's dragon body is not healthy, and I can't sleep day and night!" Wei Guogong was very grateful that he guessed the emperor's mind: "I have the courage to donate half of the family wealth, which can be regarded as a share of His Majesty's worries..."

If you don't know the taste, you will lose a penny when the house is ransacked.

Who knew that Huo Rong waved his hand lightly, and looked at him with black eyes, with a bit of sincerity: "The Duke misunderstood me, I want to go to your residence for a while."

Live... in your own home! ?

Duke Wei's eyes were staring like copper bells, and he really couldn't guess what this man was thinking: "...Your Majesty's daily life and diet are of great importance, minister... if the minister's poor reception disturbs the holy car..."

Wei Guogong had rejection written all over his face, and his legs were trembling on weekdays, but now he wants to invite this person to his home, life can't be better! ?

Besides, when it comes to honor and favor, it's not his turn for Shengjia to pick him up. Even if His Majesty suspects his family, he can let the Jinyi guards investigate, and there is no need to come in person...

Why did His Majesty choose their family?

Huo Rong looked at the panic-stricken Duke of Wei, gritted his teeth and said with a smile, "How could the reception be poor? When I was young, I often went to the Duke's house to rest. It was so pleasant, and it often reminded me of it. Now I also want to visit the old place again. fan."

Not only do you want to revisit the old place, but you also need to confirm some things and find out that daring little thing!
