Chapter 52 Powerless
She thought that after Yan Kangming's death, Qin Zhen and Yan Qing's life would be very difficult.But she never thought that their life would be so sad that they would have to risk their lives to survive.

Thinking of how lightly he said just now to let Yan Qing live a good life, Hong Gong felt blocked in his heart and his eyes were sore.

What kind of life is this girl living!

Hong Gong couldn't personally understand what Yan Qing was feeling at this time, but just thinking about Yan Qing's situation at this time made her feel suffocated and angry.

But Yan Qing, who was experiencing all this personally, could still sit in front of him calmly at this moment, and even had the strength to deal with those who threatened him, so as not to fall into an absolute disadvantage.

Hong Gong asked himself, even if she lived more than [-] years longer than Yan Qing, she would definitely not be able to reach Yan Qing's level in a different place.

"Then what are your plans now...?"

Hong Gong hesitated to speak, and the last sentence came to her lips, but she swallowed it again.

"Is there anything I can do to help?"

Such a simple sentence seemed to weigh a thousand catties, hanging on his throat and pressing on his heart, making Hong Gong unable to open his mouth.

She knew very well that she couldn't help Yan Qing at this moment.

Even if she acted rashly, something that aroused King Su's vigilance, it would be killing Qin Zhen!

Involved in the dispute over the prince's succession, a person like Yan Qing who is coerced to stand in line, regardless of success or failure, will not end well.

The more Hong Gong thought about it, the heavier his heart became.

Now that King Duan is in charge of the country, King Su ordered people to detain his ministers and family members during his confinement. She even heard that Li Dingshan's soldiers and horses staying in the suburbs of Beijing had not stopped practicing since they returned to Beijing.This means that King Su couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to directly seek power and usurp the throne!

If Qin Zhen's life had not been involved, she would definitely have entered the palace immediately to remind the emperor to beware of King Su after receiving this news!
But at this time, she didn't dare to act rashly.

Yan Qing told her about this to prepare her mentally, but if she killed Qin Zhen because of this, she would despise herself!

"Girl, you have to think clearly, the Yan family has never been involved in disputes between princes for generations."

Hong Gong stared at Yan Qing and said solemnly, "Of course I know your difficulties, but as a minister, if you know such a thing but don't report it to the heavens, it is disloyal. If loyalty is doomed to fail, you should know , I may not be righteous."

Hong Gong kept his eyes down, not letting go of every subtle change in Yan Qing's face.

But it was a pity that Yan Qing seemed to have expected her to react like this, so there was no slight emotional change.

She just rolled her eyes slightly, and said calmly: "The Yan family has only been loyal to the emperor for generations, and has no preference for a certain prince. But..."

Yan Qing paused slightly, causing Hong Gong to catch his breath unconsciously and his heart beat faster.

It was impossible for her to disregard her mother's life, even if Qin Zhen didn't want her to choose so.

Hong Gong was very clear about this.

"Aunt Hong, this is the only thing I can do."

Hong Gong was slightly stunned, and fixedly looked at Yan Qing who calmly finished the second half of the sentence, and looked at the light and slight curl of her lips, bitter, helpless, and relieved.

She knew that she would definitely find a way to pass the news to the emperor, and she deliberately let herself know about it!
Being coerced, she chose to bow her head. As the last loyalty of the minister, she chose to put herself in danger, and also reminded her old master that someone had evil intentions, and she was no longer reliable.

Hong Gong's pupils kept trembling, and Yan Qing's face in front of him became a little blurred.

What kind of mood is this?

Hong Gong found that his understanding of Yan Qing was so shallow, she was so similar to her father, yet so unlike.

If it was Yan Kangming, he would definitely not choose to betray the emperor for Qin Zhen. The greatest contribution he could make was to follow Qin Zhen after the rebellion was put down.

On this point, Yan Qing and Yan Kangming are two completely different people.

But the former made her feel even more nervous.

"Girl..."

Hong Gong squeezed Yan Qing's hand tightly, thousands of words were stuck in her throat, but she opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word.

"Just like you said, this is my own choice, no one else needs to understand, and it is only my responsibility."

Yan Qing held Hong Gong's hand instead, and said calmly but firmly, "One month, can my injury heal within one month?"

Hong Gong frowned, held Yan Qing's hand tightly, and stared into her eyes.

Is she telling herself that King Su is planning to turn against him for at most a month?

Hong Gong glanced at the shadow outside the house, collected his emotions, and said emphatically: "Yes. Your wound is already scabbed and falling off. But you don't know what you are doing, how did you happen to be involved? The scabs tear away the flesh, and the good flesh is torn apart again. Although it can grow back in a month, the new flesh is still very fragile, so you can’t use too much force, or you will be easily injured.”

Hong Gong didn't stop talking when she said this, she knew that the people outside were standing there, so they definitely wanted to hear something.

So she didn't deliberately lower her voice for some unimportant things before.

At this time, Yan Qing turned up the volume to ask, that is to say to the outsiders.

"During this month, you have to be more careful, and don't bump into each other again. Otherwise, you may not be able to get well in one month."

Hong Gong told Yan Qing as if complaining, and then lowered his voice, "I know some words are farting, but girl, if the worst happens, just run away. You shouldn't live like this for the rest of your life."

As he spoke, Hong Gong's eyes became dizzy again.

The girl in front of me is actually still a child who is not yet ready, but she has already experienced pain and setbacks that many people may not experience in a lifetime.

She really loves this girl, not because of her love for her father, but because of her life, which is too bitter.

Hong Gong wanted to hug the poor girl in front of him, but he was concerned about her injury, and he was also afraid that his behavior would put more unnecessary burden on her heart.

As for what she said earlier, Yan Qing just smiled slightly, the meaning in his eyes was unclear, but he could clearly feel a kind of loneliness and vicissitudes.

In just an instant, Hong Gong knew that she would not escape, was not going to escape, and... had nowhere to escape.

Unable to see it any longer, Hong Gong stood up abruptly, turned around and went to the inner courtyard from the other side, not daring to let Yan Qing see her expression clearly at this time.

She is such a big person, she is not as calm as an underage child, what's the matter?
Waiting for Heming to cook the decoction, watched Yan Qing take it, and watched her and Si Xun leave the backyard of the hospital, Hong Gong's tense spirit relaxed, and even the people went weak for a while, and stood by the door frame stable.

He Ming, who was on the sidelines, worriedly supported Hong Gong: "Master, what happened?"

Just now when Hong Gong came in with red eyes, he wanted to ask, but at that time Hong Gong seemed to be feeling uncomfortable, so he waved his hand to signal him not to talk, so he didn't open his mouth.

At this time, seeing Hong Gong's appearance, he couldn't bear it anymore and asked.

Hong Gong shook his head: "It's okay."

But as soon as he finished speaking, Hong Gong lowered his head and asked him, "Did someone in the palace send you a post in the morning?"
