Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 656: The Profitable Fisherman

Tang Ning looked at the recent events with a pessimistic attitude.

Regardless of whether the assassination of King Kang was caused by King Duan or King Huai, or whether King Kang directed and performed a good show with the purpose of dragging King Duan into the water, the ending of the matter was good.

After the defeat of King Kang, King Duan did not take the position of prince, but was benched one after another. King Kang, who had become the heir, actually won two games in a row in front of King Duan. While King Duan was treated coldly, he However, he lived in the palace and was served by the palace maids and eunuchs. Prince Kang's palace also had a tendency of resurgence.

The credit that was originally attributed to King Duan was in vain to gain the advantage of King Huai and Fang Hong. Zhao Yuan's cooking skills became more and more sophisticated, which undoubtedly tied Chen Huang's stomach and completed the first step of overtaking in a corner.

Things are moving in a good direction. This year has just passed and before the Yuan Dynasty, Tang Ning has to prepare for the women's martial arts competition again.

After March, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and many officials in the court will be busy with the provincial and imperial civil examinations. The court pays special attention to this year's martial arts examinations, so Tang Ning plans to hold the women's martial arts examinations one month ahead of time, which coincides with these two major events. open.

Including the Gyeonggi area, the examination lists of each state have been reported. With so many state capitals in Chen State, there are only about 500 women participating in the martial arts examination.

This number was also within Tang Ning's expectation.

After all, there are very few men who practice martial arts, let alone women. It is extremely difficult for the entire Chen Kingdom to find 500 women who can read and write and practice martial arts since childhood.

Tang Yaoyao and Xiao Xiao insisted on joining in the fun. Tang Yaojing threatened them with his fatal blow, but Tang Ning had no choice but to agree.

There is no problem with the identities of the two of them. Although Tang Yaojing is the daughter of a businessman, she is now a member of the Tang family. Tang Ning, who has a small household registration, has already registered for her, and she is now considered a daughter of a general.

Emperor Chen launched a unified women's martial arts competition this time. In fact, it was just for the sake of face, and in the end only ten captains were given places.

Hundreds of people are competing for these ten captains, and it is not easy to stay until the end.

Prince Huai was the chief examiner of the martial arts examination, and Tang Ning wanted to show him the specific regulations. Early this morning, he had them delivered to Prince Huai's mansion.

The fall of the Tang family and the cold reception by King Duan was a happy thing, but Tang Ning couldn't be happy about it.

Because Su Mei is leaving.

In two months, she will go to Guizhou Province with Bai Jin Gongsun Ying to participate in the competition for the saint of Wan Gu Sect.

Once she leaves, Tangning will not be able to see her for at least a year.

Tang Ning was sitting in the study when Su Mei came over and said with a smile, "Isn't there still two months left?"

Tangning sighed and said, "Two months, only sixty days, and seven hundred and twenty hours, what can I do?"

Su Mei sat in his arms and asked with a smile: "You don't know what sixty days and seven hundred and twenty hours can do?"

Of the four ladies, she was the one who knew how to pester people best. Tangning really loved and feared her, but at this time, he didn't have any other thoughts. He hugged her gently and said, "Let you suffer." ”

These days, she was training with Gongsun Ying and Bai Jin, and she returned exhausted almost every day. This matter was originally supposed to be done by Tang Ning, but she took it on without any explanation, leaving him no room for negotiation.

"It's not bitter." Su Mei leaned on his shoulder and said, "This time it's for ourselves, it's not bitter at all..."

Time is relative. The two months and 720 hours that Su Mei spent at home will pass in a blink of an eye. But if she leaves for two months, these 720 hours will be like 7,200 or 70,000. Two thousand...

Tang Ning sent another letter to Prince Huai's Mansion today. The content of the letter was very polite, but there was only one central idea. In the month before the martial arts examination begins, he should spend time with his wife. Don't bother him if there is nothing important. Don't bother him with important things.

In the palace of Prince Huai.

After reading Tang Ning's letter, King Huai shook his head helplessly, put down the letter, put a piece of pastry in front of the young woman opposite, and said, "Try the lily cake you like."

The young woman smiled softly, put some fish in his bowl, and said softly: "You eat this."

A maid came in from outside and whispered: "Your Highness, a guest is here."

King Huai slowly swallowed the food in his mouth and asked, "What guest?"

The maid said: "He said he was an old friend of His Highness."

King Huai nodded and said, "Let him wait in the study. I will be there in a moment."

The young woman looked at him and said, "If the prince has something to do, please go there first. Don't delay anything important."

"What important thing can I do?" King Huai smiled and said, "What thing is more important than having dinner with the princess?"

The woman lowered her head and smiled, but said nothing more.

King Huai slowly finished the meal with the young woman, wiped his mouth with the handkerchief handed over by the woman, stood up and said, "I'll be back as soon as I can."

He walked out of the room, walked slowly to the study, and closed the door.

He looked at the figure hidden under the cloak in the study and asked, "Did you do the assassination of King Kang?"

"I thought it was you who did it." An unidentified voice came from under the cloak, and said slowly: "Killing King Kang, framing King Duan, killing two birds with one stone, the snipe and the clam fighting, the fisherman profiting, it looks very much like your handiwork. "

King Huai looked calm and asked, "Do you know me well?"

The voice said, "For so many years, haven't you liked to be the fisherman who benefits?"

"It seems that Brother Kang Wang is really different from before." King Huai slowly walked to the table and sat down, saying, "This self-torture plan is to kill two birds with one stone, dragging Prince Duan and the Tang family into the water at the same time..."

"Are you talking about King Kang?" The figure looked at him and said puzzledly, "King Kang is just a straw bag. Is there a master behind him?"

King Huai did not answer this question. He looked at him and said, "You haven't come here for a long time. I thought you were dead."

"I won't die so easily." The figure looked at him and said, "At least I can't die before you ascend the throne."

He looked at King Huai and said, "Speaking of this, when King Kang leaves the palace, you might as well find someone to give him a It's great. If King Kang dies, it will make the emperor suspicious of Prince Duan. Wouldn't that be beneficial to you? "

King Huai said calmly, "Don't teach me how to do things."

"I'm not here to teach you how to do things." The man looked at him through his cloak and said, "I'm here to tell you that I'm going to be away for a while. During this time, you should take care of yourself. Don't wait for me to come back. You have fallen to the same situation as King Kang."

King Huai looked at him and asked, "Are you worried that your efforts over the years will go to waste?"

The figure looked at him and said, "Worry more about yourself. The emperor has obviously decided on Prince Duan's position as the crown prince. It's not that easy to snatch food from the tiger's mouth..."

...

The young woman knocked on the door of the study, pushed it open, and saw King Huai standing by the wall, admiring the calligraphy and paintings on the wall.

She looked around and said in confusion, "The guest has left."

King Huai turned around and said with a smile, "Gone."

The woman walked up to her and said, "I want to go back to my parents' home in the next two days."

"I'll take you back." King Huai nodded and said with a smile, "It's been a long time since I had a drink with my father-in-law..."
