Fortunate Young Gentleman

Tang Ning was kicked off the table by several women when she was halfway through her meal. It was a pity that the soup made by Zhao Yuan was not only nutritious but also tasted good.

Compared with Zhao Yuan, who was focused on making soup and picking up girls, several other princes in the capital were working tirelessly.

Among them, the one in which King Duan tore King Huai to pieces was the most intense.

In the past two days in the court, he had almost always been against King Huai. Tangning originally wondered if it was because King Huai was talking to him that day and King Duan saw him. But now it seems that it was not the case. How could anyone do this for such an inexplicable reason? Provoking such a big dispute in the court.

King Huai still didn't respond to King Duan's fierce attack, which surprised Tangning.

Although King Huai seemed to be indifferent to the world, he was definitely not an easy man. Even Tang Ning was unwilling to provoke him for no reason, but King Duan didn't care at all. Ignorant people are indeed fearless.

Prince Huai's Mansion.

Unlike King Duan and King Kang, King Huai had never actively participated in seizing the heir, and there were no advisers in the mansion, only a few maids and servants.

At this time, King Huai and Princess Huai were dining in the hall.

After Princess Huai sat down, she didn't move her chopsticks. She raised her head and asked, "Have you encountered any trouble in court affairs recently?"

King Huai looked at her, smiled and said, "Where did you hear that? It's nothing."

Princess Huai said: "I heard that Prince Duan has been causing trouble for you these days."

King Huai shook his head and said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, I can handle it, you don't have to worry about this..."

After he finished speaking, a servant knocked on the door, walked in from the outside, and said, "Your Highness, I have something important to report..."

King Huai turned around and said, "Let him wait a moment. I will go over after eating."

The servant looked hesitant and said: "Lord Si Ye said that His Highness Prince Duan's people made trouble in the Imperial College and injured several doctors. Please come over quickly..."

Princess Huai looked at him and said, "The court affairs are important, Your Highness should go there first."

King Huai glanced at the servant, looked at her, nodded and said: "Then I will go to the Imperial College first, and then I will have dinner with you in the afternoon."

Princess Huai nodded and said, "Your Highness, please go down."

King Huai stood up, and when he walked out of the hall, he paused, looked in a certain direction, and murmured: "It will never end..."

…

Inside the Imperial Academy, it was a mess.

The Imperial College has always been divided into two camps. Tang Qi, who offered sacrifices to the Imperial College, belonged to the Duan Wang camp, but he did not dominate the Imperial College with one hand, and some officials did not fall to Duan Wang.

Now that Tang Qi has left, one of the two ministers is close to King Duan, and the other has not chosen to take sides. And because the real person in charge of the Imperial College is King Huai, they are automatically considered to be in the King Huai camp.

King Duan couldn't do anything to King Huai, so he took action from his officials. The two ministers seized power and turned the Imperial Academy upside down.

When King Huai arrived, a minister with a bandage on his forehead said angrily: "Lawless, lawless. Prince Duan is not the prince or the emperor yet. I want to report to the court and your majesty..."

King Huai waved his hand and said with a smile: "Forget it, give him whatever he wants. Why don't Xu Siye go home to recover from his injury for a month..."

"How can this be done?" Xu Siye waved his hand suddenly and said, "They were already so arrogant when I was here. What if I leave?"

"Go back." King Huai looked at him and said, "I will give you a month's leave. During this month, you no longer have to deal with the affairs of the Imperial College."

"Your Highness!"

"Let's go back……"

…

Si Ye, the Imperial Son, looked at King Huai, pursed his lips, and finally nodded and said, "I obey your orders."

King Huai looked at him and said, "Don't forget, before you leave, hand over everything in your hands to Wang Siye..."

Xu Siye was stunned and asked, "Everything?"

King Huai nodded and said, "Everything."

Xu Siye looked away, nodded and said, "I'll get it done right away."

After leaving the Imperial Academy, King Huai had just walked back to Prince Huai's Mansion when another official came to report that they were responsible for the implementation of the new tax system in the capital, but King Duan stepped in and snatched it away...

King Huai waved his hand and said: "Give it all to him too..."

He walked back to the palace, looked at a servant, and said: "When the king and the princess are together from now on, no matter what happens, don't disturb me. Do you understand?"

The servant immediately said: "I know..."

…

The old residence of the Tang family in the capital became a beggar's residence overnight, causing widespread discussion in a small area.

The Tang family used to be high and mighty, but now their old house is occupied by beggars. No one knows how Tang Huai and Tang Qi feel.

But what they were sure of was that Marquis Dingguo's move was not just out of good intentions, to give these homeless people a shelter from the wind and rain.

He has already caused the Tang family to lose everything, and now he wants to give the Tang family a heavy blow on the spiritual level.

The East District of the Capital, where the Tang family's old residence is located, is surrounded by officials and dignitaries. For them, they naturally do not want their neighbors to be lowly beggars, but the beggars who live here are all honest and do not disturb other people. With their own lives, these powerful people just let them go.

After all, Marquis Dingguo just let these beggars live here and did not raise pigs in the Tang family's old house. No one would offend a plague god because of this trivial matter.

King Huai had already demonstrated to them the consequences of offending the God of Plague.

Under the mad dog-like attack of King Duan, King Huai not only lost control of the Imperial College, but the tax reform that he had been promoting under His Majesty's order was also plucked by King Duan at the critical moment.

King Duan is already a mad dog. How can they dare to provoke someone who even a mad dog would not dare to provoke?

…

Tangning learned from Xiao Jue that his nickname had been changed to "God of Plague".

For him, being called the "God of Plague" is better than being called the "Broom Star".

The broom star is hated by everyone, and the God of Plague is feared by everyone. He prefers to be the latter.

Xiao Jue looked at him and said: "The God of Plague is the God of Plague. It sounds better than a mad dog. King Huai was miserable. He was chased and bitten by a mad dog. He had no rights in the first place, and half of them were taken away by King Duan... …”

Tangning looked at him and asked, "Have you ever seen a tiger killed by a mad dog?"

Xiao Jue was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?"

Tang Ning said: "Even a tiger that has temporarily restrained its fangs is not something a mad dog can deal with."

Xiao Jue was stunned and asked: "You mean, King Huai is that tiger?"

Tangning looked at him and asked, "The capital is in such deep water, and there are constant undercurrents. As a prince who can participate in politics, and has been wandering around the court for so many years, do you think that King Huai made mistakes?"

Xiao Jue thought about it carefully and said in shock: "No..."

King Duan and King Kang have been fighting for so many years. Both sides have seized each other's leverage and attacked each other, but King Huai has almost never been involved.

It's not that they don't want to, it's that they simply can't get hold of King Huai.

"Have you ever seen anyone who can do this without leaving any trace behind, being in a whirlpool but never getting involved?" Tangning smiled and said, "This is the real beast."

"You." Xiao Jue looked at him directly and said, "Only you involve others, others have never involved you. He is a beast and you are a beast."
