Chapter 176 I'm Really Unwilling
"Grandpa, do you think Uncle Nine Emperor's legs are good or not?"

Facing the inquiry from Huang Puzi Xiao, Xiao Qianye raised his hand and stroked the beard on his chin, thought for a while and said: "It's hard to say, but since there are rumors in the imperial city that the Ninth Prince appeared in the Xiangfu, isn't it true?" If you rely on a wheelchair, then I think it is true in all likelihood, and this morning, I saw that the emperor's face was not very good, and he was probably regretting that he himself did not call the Nanhai genius doctor into the palace earlier. "

Hearing this, Huang Puzi Xiao frowned, carefully considering the pros and cons.

Seeing him like this, Xiao Qianye took two sips of tea from the teacup next to him, then put the cup back to its original position, then got up from his seat, walked quickly to the entrance of the flower hall, and looked at the scene where the sun was still shining just a second ago. , In the blink of an eye, in the dark cloud-covered sky, he drooped his eyes and began to meditate.

"Dark clouds cover the sky, and the wind and rain are about to strike. The sky is about to change. The God of War returns. Next, the Three Kingdoms and Six Cities will be in chaos. Xiao Er, I think you should put your mind to it!"

"Grandpa—"

Turning his head, he saw Huang Puzi Xiao's face showing a bit of unwillingness, Xiao Qianye shook his head helplessly, and tried to persuade him: "Xiao Er, the surname Xiao was good in this world decades ago, but now, This world is no longer our Xiao family's world, you may still have a chance before the Ninth Prince walked out of the Ninth Prince's Mansion, but now that the Ninth Prince has stood up, you must understand that the title of God of War is not called for nothing."

"Back then, the Ninth Prince returned triumphantly. The emperor thought that the world was sure to win. In order to keep his throne, he joined forces with outsiders to deal with the Ninth Prince. He thought that this happened without anyone noticing it, but he didn't know about it. Many people knew about it. Now that the Ninth Prince stands up, with his character, he will definitely take revenge for that day, and I think everyone who participated in this incident can hardly escape the blame."

"Grandpa, you told me to give up just one word, how can I let go?" Huang Puzi Xiao sternly said.

Now, his arrangements have been carried out in secret, as long as he is willing, the imperial city is almost completely under his control.

"Xiao Er, do you still remember what I told you before?"

Huang Puzi Xiao was taken aback by Xiao Qianye's question, and then he tried his best to recall the past. After a long time, he said loudly: "Grandpa, you said that you want me to be patient and secretly cultivate your own power. The purpose is to one day Seize the world and benefit the common people in the world."

"Fortunately, Xiao Er, you still remember, and you were not so confused by that position that you lost your mind." Xiao Qianye said with a face full of relief, "Xiao Er, the person who can benefit the world must be a person in a high position , but the person in the high position does not necessarily have to be you, Xiao Er, do you understand what I mean?"

"Grandpa, why isn't that person necessarily me?"

"Because no one in this world can compare with the Ninth Prince. It can be said that the Ninth Prince has the bravery and good planning of the former Emperor Yaozu. He not only kills decisively, but also never delays in doing things."

Hearing this, Huang Puzi Xiao's face turned cold, "Grandpa, if Uncle Nine Emperors can do this, so can I! You just said that Emperor Yaozu was brave and resourceful, but didn't his dynasty be overthrown in the end? Yet?"

"Xiao'er, don't you still understand what I just wanted to say? Now it's not enough to have these, but Dongfeng and strength, one is justifiable. It just so happens that the Ninth Prince possesses these three, and I think as long as the Ninth Prince is willing , not only the Huangpu Kingdom, but also the Six Cities of the Three Kingdoms, if he wants to, he can easily get it in his pocket. Compared with him, you are far behind."

Hearing this, Huang Puzi Xiao closed his eyes in pain.

If he had known earlier that all this would turn into such a situation overnight, then, when Shen Jinyan lived in the Ninth Prince's Mansion, he might not have slapped the flames behind his back and forced that woman to Shen Jinyan.

At that time, he was thinking in his heart, with his current abilities, he could only choose one of Jiang Shan and Meiren, and what was more, he had no confidence that Shen Jinyan would definitely fall in love with him.

Between big love and little love, he gave up his own love and chose to rely on his own strength to benefit the common people in the world.

So he chose to give up on Shen Jinyan, the first woman he was not defenseless against.

But he didn't want to, fate made a trick, overnight, just because that man stood up, his dream of being an emperor was also shattered.

The former was voluntarily given up by him, while the latter was forced to give up.

"Grandpa, I'm really unwilling!" Huang Puzi Xiao said through gritted teeth, but because of his extreme anger, a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, and his whole body slid off the chair and fell to the ground. .

Xiao Qianye did not expect that Huang Puzi Xiao, who has always been calm and calm, would suddenly become like this. He was anxious and abandoned at the moment.

"Come on, call the doctor—"

When Huang Puzi Xiao woke up, it was already three hours later.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Xiao Qianye standing in front of his bed with his hands behind his back. His slightly bent back made him red-eyed.

"Grandpa—"

Hearing this extremely weak call, Xiao Qianye turned around slowly, and saw Huang Puzi Xiao woke up, hurriedly walked two steps to the bed, and stretched out his hand to help Huang Pu who was struggling to sit up. Zi Xiao.

"Xiao Er, do you feel better?"

Coughing twice, Huang Puzi Xiao raised his head and glanced at Xiao Qianye, looking at his white temples, he suddenly felt that his grandfather seemed to have aged a few hours.

"Grandpa, I'm sorry, I made you worry again." Huang Puzi Xiao said guiltily.

"Silly boy, stop thinking about it."

Xiao Qianye patted Huangpuzi Xiao's hand to express his comfort, knowing that he just wanted to think about it when he said that just now, but, countless times in his mind, he thought of the little Huangpuzi Xiao when he was a child. Under the persuasion of her, she began to learn to endure, just for a dream.

Many years have passed, and now at this juncture when the time is ripe, it is he who broke his dream with his own hands and asked him to give up everything.

Thinking of what Huang Puzi Xiao endured when he was a child, Xiao Qianye couldn't help but his eyes turned red.

He owed this child too much!So much that he has been unable to repay.

"Xiao Er, I don't expect anything from you now. I am afraid that you will live a good life. I still remember that when your mother and concubine were bestowed to death by the emperor, I was unable to save your mother and concubine. It is already too much for you to lose your mother and concubine since you were a child." I'm very sorry, if you have trouble now, if I go down here, how can I explain to your mother and concubine."

"Grandpa, no, you will live a long life." Huang Puzi Xiao said with a sob.

The moment he first woke up, he even blamed his grandfather a little bit in his heart, but now when he heard these words, he felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head, and he became sober as well. Not a lot.

From childhood to adulthood, during these years in the palace, if it weren't for him who was a few kilometers away to worry about him, he wouldn't be able to live at all, and the more important thing was his aunt.

Mingming was born indifferent to fame and wealth, and only liked to grow flowers and plants, but in order to help him better, he voluntarily entered the palace, devoted himself to fighting for favor, and dealt with the emperor and those concubines every day.

He has suffered, endured the cold, and even been framed again and again, even if he was thrown into limbo, he gritted his teeth and survived.

Now, his aunt named Concubine Xiao Gui at a young age and became the head of the four concubines. He knew that she had never been really happy.

"Silly boy, birth, old age, sickness and death are very common in a person's life, just look away."

"Grandpa, now I voluntarily give up to fight for that position. After so many years, I have been struggling and thoroughly investigating why my mother and concubine died, but I have not found any clues. Grandpa, you are willing to tell me now, my Why was the concubine mother killed for no reason?"

Hearing Huang Puzi Xiao's question, Xiao Qianye couldn't help but think of what happened back then, and his old eyes couldn't help but blush.

"The reason why your mother and concubine was bestowed to death was because she accidentally overheard the conversation between the emperor and Cao Gonggong. According to the news that your mother and concubine passed back before her death, she learned that the former empress Wanqing was the surname of Xiao from the previous dynasty. The princess of the Dynasty who has been living abroad since she was a child, and she will marry the first emperor is also to leave the blood of the Xiao surname, so that one day, the blood of the surname Xiao will be able to make a comeback, and then revive the glory of the previous dynasty."

"Grandpa, according to this statement, isn't Uncle Nine Emperors the son of the former princess?"

Hearing his question, Xiao Qianye frowned subconsciously, "Xiao Er, this matter is of great importance, and that's why I didn't dare to enter the palace to intercede for your mother and concubine, and before this matter was thoroughly investigated, , you can't reveal the slightest bit of wind, do you understand?"

"Xiao Er understands." Huang Puzi Xiao nodded and said, "Grandpa, since you already knew about it, have you found any clues over the years?"

Xiao Qianye shook his head helplessly, "The Nine Princes' Mansion is heavily guarded, and our people have gone several times without returning. Later, I buried this matter in my heart, and I have never inquired about it these years, but Xiao Er, Now that the court situation has changed, regardless of whether the Ninth Prince is from the previous court or not, Xiao Er, you must remember that our Xiao family was originally a courtier from the previous court. Although we are not in the direct line of the Xiao surname, it was preserved by our ancestors. , so, before the real former prince appears, we must spare our lives."

"The best way to save our lives is that our Xiao family still insists on not supporting anyone in the court. We only listen to the order of the person sitting on the dragon chair. Only in this way can our Xiao family continue to have a seat in the court. In other words , our Xiao family is still preserved, it is also because the current emperor really loves your mother and concubine. He only gave her to death at the beginning, and secretly warned me. A crime, and then ransacked our Xiao family, so the emperor has already shown favor to our Xiao family, so don't try to take revenge. Let you not avenge her, it is her destiny."

After finishing speaking in one breath, Xiao Qianye only took a few breaths, and Huang Puzi Xiao, who had listened to his words, also sensitively caught the important words, and played several times in his mind, but still couldn't restrain his anger. meaning.
