Fortunate Young Gentleman

When Wu Yong was about to walk out of Prince Kang's Mansion, he always had a strange feeling in his heart.

The disappearance of Tang Yu, the second young lady of the Tang family, once caused a great stir in the capital. In the end, neither the Ministry of Punishment nor Dali Temple found anything useful, so the case had to be dropped.

Now that he saw Tang Ning and Tang Yu together, if he reported it to the court, Tang Ning would be guilty of a serious crime. If it was done well, even the Tang family could take a hit.

The Tang family is King Kang's mortal enemy, and the relationship between Tangning and King Kang is different from before. This incident can be said to kill two birds with one stone. If King Kang learns of this news, he will not only reward him heavily, but also praise him ------ But when Mr. Xu learned the news, he didn't show any joy.

While Wu Yong paused and thought, a woman with a gauze face walked slowly past him, causing several servants in Prince Kang's palace to whisper.

"I didn't expect that Mr. Xu, who seemed quite serious, was actually just like us. He returned to his hometown once and actually brought back a woman from the Western Regions."

"Is it so strange that a hero has a hard time being a beauty? What's wrong with a man who has several beautiful concubines in his house?"

"Then there's no need to be so stingy. You're still wearing a veil, as if you're afraid of being seen. In our eyes, there's no difference between those women from the Western Regions..."

…

Listening to everyone's discussion, Wu Yong suddenly stopped in his steps, turned around stiffly, and watched the veiled woman from the Western Region disappear in front of a door.

A steward of Prince Kang's Mansion looked at him and said with a smile: "Mr. Wu, don't look at it. That is Mr. Xu's woman. Besides, her face is covered, so you can't see her face..."

To identify who a person is, it is not necessary to see the face. In fact, it is easy to be deceived by just looking at the face.

The face can be changed through disguise, but her demeanor, temperament, and even the habitual movements when walking are generally difficult to change, and no one will deliberately change it.

Knowing this, even if her face is covered with a veil, her true identity cannot be concealed.

Recognizing people through things other than their faces is his strength.

Wu Yong was not thinking about this matter at the moment. What he was confused and frightened about was why the maid from the Western Regions that Tang Jing spent a lot of money to buy was at Mr. Xu's place?

He seemed to have thought of something, his face began to turn pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

At this moment, he finally understood what was strange about what Mr. Xu just said.

What he said just now clearly meant that he wanted him to die!

Mr. Xu is King Kang's most trusted adviser. From the woman from the Western Region, it can be seen that he and the Tang family obviously have close ties. If this matter is revealed, it will be beneficial to the Tang family and harmless to King Kang. It will not happen in any case. Harm Mr. Xu’s interests...

He couldn't figure it out, but that wasn't the point. The point was that Mr. Xu wanted him to die...

Wu Yong turned around and raised one foot, but he didn't know where to go.

One road is in the direction of King Kang's bedroom, and the other is the road to Mr. Xu's residence.

Among the two roads, there may not be a way to survive, but there must be a way to die.

He stood there, silent for a long time, and finally chose one and took a step.

…

In Mr. Xu's room, the young man looked at him and said, "Sir, Wu Yong cannot be kept here."

The woman who just walked in with a veil on her face said: "I will arrange for someone to get rid of him immediately."

"There are many ways to shut him up, why bother killing people." Mr. Xu waved his hand and said: "The Lord has said that everyone has the right to life, and no one can take it away at will."

The young man thought for a while, frowned and said: "The king is kind, but Wu Yong..."

An attendant came in and said, "Mr. Xu, Lord Wu Yong and Wu want to see you."

A trace of doubt appeared on the young man's face. Mr. Xu looked at the man and said, "Let him come in."

Wu Yong walked in with difficulty, and when he walked in front of Mr. Xu, he knelt down with a "pop" and said: "Wu Yong is willing to submit to Mr. Xu. In the future, Mr. Xu will follow his lead!"

Mr. Xu looked at him and said calmly: "Master Wu, what are you doing?"

Wu Yong said: "As for the second lady of the Tang family, it is entirely up to Mr. Xu to make the decision. Mr. Xu can handle it how he wants. Wu Yong knows nothing, has never seen anything, and will not tell Prince Kang..." "

Mr. Xu looked at him for a long time, and finally a strange look appeared on his face, and asked: "How did you see it?"

Wu Yong looked at the woman from the Western Regions in the room and whispered: "I saw her being bought back by Tang Jing that day."

The woman from the Western Region took off her veil and looked at him in surprise.

Wu Yong knelt on the ground, cupped his hands and said, "I swear I will not tell anything about what happened today. From now on, Wu Yong will only be driven by Mr. Xu..."

…

In Prince Kang's Mansion, Prince Kang, who had just woken up from a hangover, walked out of his bedroom and saw a man walking out of a certain courtyard and asked, "What does Wu Shaoqing want from me?"

Wu Yong looked at Mr. Xu beside him, sipped his saliva, and said: "Back to Your Highness, the Queen Mother's birthday is approaching. Your Majesty ordered the Ministry of Rites and Guanglu Temple to jointly organize this birthday. This shows that Your Majesty attaches great importance to the Queen Mother's birthday. Your Highness You must choose your gifts carefully to avoid being outdone by King Duan.”

Wu Yong was the Shaoqing of Guanglu, and Guanglu Temple was in charge of sacrifices, court gatherings, banquets, and banquets. On these matters, he had to get the news before others.

King Kang looked at him and asked, "Is this why you are looking for me?"

Wu Yong nodded and said: "Your Majesty, Prince Kang, must not underestimate this matter. Your Majesty knows your feelings for the Queen Mother. If you are compared with Prince Duan on this matter, your Majesty will still have a grudge in your heart even if you don't say it clearly..." …”

Although the weight of the gift represents the degree of sincerity, the imperial court had only banned extravagance and ostentation a few days ago. King Kang felt that Wu Yong was making a fuss, but he took his words to heart, waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay. Yes, I know..."

…

At the Qiaoqi Camp, Tangning walked out of the barracks and looked at the people training on the school field, feeling a little bored.

Zuo Lang completely gave up on Zhang Chao. Although he still came to Xiaoqi Camp every day, he didn't care about other things.

Moreover, when he left every day, he had to put on the attire of an ordinary guard. Somehow he was stimulated. It is best not to mess with people who are stimulated. Therefore, Tang Ning also expressed concern about him arriving late and leaving early, and drinking in the camp. They all turn a blind eye.

No one was looking for trouble, so he didn't know what to do. Thinking that there was one more thing he had not done, when he returned to the city at night, he and Xiao Jue went to Lu's house.

Xiao Jue and Lu Ya were chatting with each other in the corner. Tang Ning explained the reason for her visit to Lu Teng. Lu Teng looked at him and asked in surprise: "Chen Zhou, what do you want Chen Zhou to do?"

Tang Ning said: "Zuo Xiaowei is still short of a captain. I think he is very suitable."

"He is just a captain now. Wouldn't it be appropriate to directly promote him to captain?" Lu Teng looked at Tang Ning and thought he was joking.

He had been a member of the Yulin Guards for many years, and went on a mission to the Chu State with the regiment. Later, he achieved good results in the Sixteenth Guards Competition, and finally climbed to the position of captain.

A small team leader under him could be on equal footing with him in a blink of an eye, which would inevitably make him feel a little unbalanced.

"It's just a matter of self-defense." Tangning said, "Since he is just a team leader, you won't let him go, right?"

Lu Teng shook his head and said, "It's useless if I agree. General Ling Yun needs to agree."

"I'll take it as if you agree." As long as Lu Teng nods, it's just a matter of words from Ling Yun, and the cheap brother-in-law won't give him any face.

However, before that, he had to ask Chen Zhou what he meant.

The Chen family where Chen Zhou belongs is a branch of a certain Chen family in Beijing. The main line of the Chen family can only be regarded as a middle-class family. There is only one leader in the family, and it belongs to the lowest level.

The reason why he wanted to be removed from the Yulin Guard was not because Tang Ning insisted on forcing him to do something difficult, but because he couldn't think of anyone more suitable for the position of leader of the guard than Chen Zhou...
