Fortunate Young Gentleman

After sitting for a while, King Huai stood up and said goodbye.

Before leaving, he looked back at Tang Ning and asked, "How do you feel?"

Tang Ning asked, "What do you feel?"

King Huai asked, "The feeling of revenge."

Tang Ning shook his head and said, "Not very good."

King Huai glanced at him, nodded, and said, "Not very good..."

After that, he turned and left.

Tang Ning looked at his back, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.

Hiding his true power has always been his evaluation of King Huai. Whether it is his skills or scheming, Tang Ning has never seen anyone of his age who can beat him.

Of course, he has to get rid of himself.

King Huai is not stupid. On the contrary, he is one of the smartest people Tang Ning has ever seen. How could he watch King Kang or King Duan ascend the throne and push himself into a desperate situation?

From beginning to end, although he has never argued with King Kang and King Duan, he is not surprised by anything. No matter how big the incident is, Tang Ning has never seen him panic.

Either he is not afraid of death, or he knows that he will not die.

Among the three princes, Kang Wang, Duan Wang, and Huai Wang, it is Kang Wang and Duan Wang who are fighting for the throne, but Huai Wang, who is hiding in the dark, is the most terrifying.

Now that Kang Wang and Duan Wang have been eliminated, he is the only one left among the three princes who first appeared in front of everyone.

If it weren't for Run Wang's interference, he would have been the only choice for the crown prince.

It is undoubted that Huai Wang is not as simple as he looks, but Zhao Yuan is not a pushover. Even without Kang Wang and Duan Wang, Huai Wang would not be able to compete with him.

If Zhao Yuan was not too young, or if Wang Xiang and others did not want to leave a bad reputation in history for forcing the emperor to abdicate, Run Wang would have sat on the position that Duan Wang had coveted for a long time.

Not long after Huai Wang left, Xiao Tao came in with two people again.

Tang Ning stood up and watched Tang Jing and his wife walk in from outside.

As the only member of the Tang family who survived the disaster, Tang Ning knew that after Tang Huai and Tang Qi were beheaded, it was Tang Jing who helped them collect their bodies.

Tang Jing looked at him, a trace of sadness flashed across his face, and he bowed his hands and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister Tang, for not killing me."

The death of his brother and sister made him look much more haggard than before. He looked at Tang Ning with a complicated look, with sadness, regret, and relief, but no hatred.

Tang Jing had nothing to do with what happened back then, and even secretly helped his parents a lot. They were Tang Shui's adoptive parents and had been taking care of his mother all these years. These were the reasons why Tang Ning saved them from King Huai.

Tang Huai and Tang Qi deserved to die, but Tang Jing was different from them.

Tang Ning did not deny it. He waved to Qing'er and said, "Qing'er, serve tea."

"No." Tang Jing waved his hand and said, "The carriage is waiting outside. We will leave soon."

For the couple, the capital was indeed a sad place. Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "Going to Jiangnan?"

She remembered that Tang Shui's adoptive mother was from the Jiangnan Su family.

Tang Jing nodded and said, "I wanted to see you again before I leave. I also have something to ask you."

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "What is it?"

"Although Shui'er is not our biological daughter, we have always treated her as our own." Tang Jing looked at him and said, "I hope you can take good care of her in the future."

"I..."

Tang Ning would take good care of Tang Shui, but it was definitely not what Tang Jing meant. Tang Ning wanted to argue, opened his mouth, but in the end, he said nothing and just nodded.

"The only thing we are worried about is Shui'er, and now we can finally rest assured." Tang Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's go."

Tang Ning followed them out the door and saw a carriage waiting under the shade of the tree.

Tang Jing helped the woman get on the carriage, and just as he was about to get on, a voice came from behind.

"Uncle."

Tang Jing's body trembled and he looked back at Tang Ning.

Tang Ning looked at him and smiled, "Take care."

Tang Jing smiled and said, "You too."

The carriage went farther and farther, and finally disappeared on the boulevard, but Tang Ning still didn't take his eyes away.

The great revenge was taken, and all the people in this world who had a life-and-death feud with him were dead, but in his heart, there was no pleasure of revenge.

Tang Ning did not deny that he was a vengeful person, but he also admitted that the feeling of revenge was not always very satisfying.

Su Ru walked out from inside, stood beside him, looked up at him, took Tang Ning's hand, and held his fingers tightly.

"Brother Xiao Ning..."

"Hmm?"

"It's not your fault."

Su Ru looked up at him and said, "They did something wrong and should be punished. Mother won't blame you."

Tang Ning knew that he couldn't hide his thoughts from Su Ru, so he hugged her gently and said, "I know..."

...

Huai Wang Mansion, by the small lake in the mansion.

A figure sat by the lake and had been sitting there for three hours. The fishing rod in his hand was shaking gently. Two hours ago, a big fish was hooked. After struggling for two hours, the fish in the water was already exhausted and floated on the water.

The figure by the lake was completely unaware and just sat by the lake in a daze.

A trace of pity appeared on the face of Huai Wang Fei. Just as she was about to step forward, she was stopped by a figure.

The woman shook her head and said, "Let His Highness be alone. He was like this when he was a child. He had something on his mind, so he just sat there quietly and didn't like to be disturbed."

The distress on Princess Huai's face became even stronger. After a long time, she looked up at her and said, "Sister, can you tell me something about when he was a child?"

"Of course." The woman nodded, pointed to the pavilion by the lake, and said, "Let's go over there."

After an unknown amount of time, King Huai finally took back the fishing rod, untied the copper fishhook from the big fish's mouth, and put the fish in the water.

After entering the water, the fish, which had been motionless for an hour, suddenly shook its tail and swam into the deep water in an instant.

A smile appeared on King Huai's lips, and a servant came up and whispered: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has summoned me."

Nourish the temple.

The doors and windows in the hall are wide open, and it no longer looks like it was filled with smoke these days.

Chen Huang leaned on the bed, his face still pale, but his complexion was much better than the previous few days.

King Huai handed over a memorial and said: "Concubine Hui hanged herself, the palace maid Zi Zhu committed suicide, and the Tang brothers have been beheaded. The details of this case are all in this memorial. Please review it..."

"Just handle this matter in accordance with the law." Chen Huang waved his hand and said, "I won't read it."

King Huai put away the memorial and said, "Father, take a good rest. The court still needs father to be stable."

Emperor Chen did not answer the question, but looked at King Huai and asked: "When I was young, I was devoted to government affairs and neglected the management of the harem, which caused you, mother and son, to suffer a lot in the harem. Do you hate me? ?”

King Huai bowed and said, "I don't dare."

Chen Huang said: "I know, I am sorry for you mother and son, and it is normal for you to hate me."

King Huai knelt in the palace, raised his head and said, "Father, I have learned from you. I have never hated my father!"

"Okay, okay..." Emperor Chen looked at him and nodded slightly. After a moment, he looked at King Huai and said, "The rebellion of King Kang and King Duan broke my heart. Now you are the only one around me. If you are able to shoulder heavy responsibilities, I would like to make you the crown prince, in charge of the affairs of the country, and the general in charge of the affairs of the country. What do you think?"

After he finished speaking, his eyes were fixed on King Huai's face.

King Huai knelt on the ground, with no emotion on his face. He shook his head and said, "I am so virtuous and capable. I will never be able to bear this heavy burden!"

Chen Huangdao: "In terms of ability, the ten kings of Kang and Duan are not as good as you. If you are the emperor and join forces with Tang Ning and his ministers, you will definitely open up a new world for our Chen country. At that time, even if I die, I will be able to Close your eyes..."

His breathing was a little rapid, as if he had already seen that day, but his eyes were still on King Huai's face.

King Huai shook his head and said: "With my father and Prime Minister Tang here, Chen Guo will have such a day sooner or later..."

Emperor Chen looked at him and asked, "Don't you want to be the emperor?"

King Huai raised his head and said with firm eyes: "I don't want to do it."

Chen Huang looked into his eyes, hoping to see even a little desire for power in his eyes, but to his disappointment, he didn't see even a little bit.

He sighed, shook his head and said, "You, your temperament is exactly the same as your Uncle Fu Wang's..."

As his voice fell, the strange color in his eyes disappeared without a trace.

King Huai stood up and said, "Father, take a good rest, and I will retire."

Chen Huang, who closed his eyes to rest, did not see the sharp glint in King Huai's eyes when he turned around.
