Daughter Shenghua

Chapter 273 Shocking News
After Jingbianhou saw off the empress, he walked to the top, stared at the crowd and said, "My lords, be safe and don't be impatient! I also understand why you are looking for the empress today. Here I can solemnly tell you Everyone, I, Yuan Zhiqi, am not a person who doesn’t care about the importance! I still understand the principle of putting the people first.”

Wang Zizhen frowned and stepped forward and asked, "What does Lord Hou mean?"

Jingbianhou smiled and said: "You can rest assured that as long as it is beneficial to the country and the people, this Marquis will fully support it!"

Wang Zizhen looked much better now.Just when someone wanted to ask the old prince to temporarily manage the overall situation, Hou Jingbian suddenly said: "There are people's lives involved in Prince Xuan's mansion and I, please keep this in mind before making any plans."

"Master Hou, didn't you just say..."

Marquis Jingbian interrupted him, "I just said that I would support the heir. I didn't say that the matter with Prince Xuan's Mansion should be left as it is. You can't find anyone else besides Prince Xuan's Mansion? Isn't there a Chengjun?" King?"

Chen Guogong was the first to shake his head and vetoed, "It's not right! Although the king of Chengjun is a member of the royal family, after all, his name is not right and his word is not right, he is afraid of causing trouble!"

His words are obviously perfunctory, even the son-in-law is unwilling to recommend him, but he thinks he is unlearned and incompetent and does not have a big backer, and he is worried that he will not be able to succeed, and in the end he will become a puppet emperor. It's just cheaper for others.

Jing Bianhou curled his lips in disdain, "In that case, I might as well tell you one more thing. The eldest prince born to the Empress Dowager Chen has indeed grown up safely. world!"

The eyes of everyone in the hall lit up, and someone immediately asked: "Master Hou, are you serious?"

Jingbianhou raised his hand and said, "Of course it's true!"

"Whether you want to choose the son-in-law or the child, I have no objection! The only thing is that once you choose the identity of that person, you can't change it. Once the identity is changed, I will not accept it no matter what."

Jing Bianhou suddenly let out such words again, making everyone happy and confused.

"Master Hou, what does it mean that you can't change your identity? Please clarify."

Jing Bianhou said with a smile: "You will know in the future. I just put my ugly words first. If I regret it and want to change my identity, don't blame me for not reminding everyone! I will die with him at that time!"

Everyone was even more confused when they heard the words.Only Wang Zizhen flashed surprised eyes.

Seeing that everyone didn't have an idea for a while, Jing Bianhou said again: "You can only choose one of two identities. No matter which one you choose, I will support it. Please rest assured. If you can't make up your mind, you can ask Ask the old prince Xuan. You have discussed it and sent someone to tell me the result!"

All the veterans were immediately excited, and after bidding farewell to Marquis Jingbian, they all went to Xuanwang's mansion together.He completely forgot that he begged the empress empress to come out and preside over the overall situation.

……

The old prince in Prince Xuan's mansion was very angry.After sending everyone away, he split the table with one palm.

"Well, he is Jing Bianhou, I underestimated you! If you want me to admit defeat, there is no way!" The old prince scolded angrily.

Butler Han hurriedly persuaded him.

After a while, the old prince suddenly asked, "Old Han, am I getting old?"

"My lord, you are not old, you have to worry about the affairs of this mansion. Why do you say that you are old? You are the god of war in the hearts of the people!" Han Butler replied.

The old prince sighed: "You don't need to comfort me. I know I am really old! If anyone dared to provoke me like this a few years ago. Now the God of War in the hearts of the people is not me."

"Hou Jingbian knows that I don't want to mention Yun'er's life experience, and he even made it public, and let those old things force me! Do I have to admit that I also have no children?"

The old prince suddenly trembled and said the last sentence, and Housekeeper Han understood why the old prince was so abnormal in this matter, and would rather offend a minister in his arms than keep that woman.

Butler Han didn't know what to say for a moment, but the old prince left alone.

……

Yun Xi looked at the pot of orchids in front of her with a thoughtful expression.

"Did Xiao Ning take care of this flower himself?"

"Back to the Princess, it is indeed our young master who took care of it himself. From the first day we got the flower, our young master has been raising it, and we don't want others to touch it easily." The boy said flatteringly.

Where he didn't see, Yun Xi's eyes became sharp.

"Okay, thank you young master for me, keep the flowers!"

The boy often sent things here, and this was the first time his gift was accepted, with a happy expression on his face, he hurriedly bid farewell and went back to his life.

After the man left, Yun Xi stared at Lan Hua for a long time, not even noticing when Shangguan Bailin came back.

"Yunxi, although this pot of orchid is a rare and exquisite product, even if it is cleverly conceived and artistic, you don't have to look at it for so long!" Shangguan Bailin joked.

Only then did Yun Xi realize that Shangguan Bailin had returned, and immediately smiled and said, "You're back? What did you gain from this trip?"

Shangguan Bailin sat directly opposite Yunxi, and said with a smile, "Yunxi, you really guessed right. This time I went to the old man who is the housekeeper, and I found something interesting. I think you will be very impressed." interested."

"Come and listen!"

"It was brought up by the old patriarch. Back then, the Shangguan empress of Yunguo left a hidden game. She once established a very terrifying intelligence network. There are tens of thousands of people. They have been there for generations as spies. They have been lurking in the throughout."

"They can only act when they are activated. Once they complete the task, they will get the highest reward, and the whole family will get better resources. Know that many of them may never be activated in their lives. Completing the task is regarded as For the best reward. The cook in your mansion is probably one of them!"

Yun Xi listened carefully, from shock at first to doubt later.

"Yun Xi, do you know who the empress left such power to?"

Yun Xi thought for a while, and said in unison with Shangguan Bailin: "The Yun family!"

"The Yun family!"

When Yunxi got this answer, she immediately felt relieved about many things.It turned out that he was the leader of that force.

Just as Yunxi cheered up, Shangguan Bailin said again: "Yunxi, do you still remember what I told you last time about taxes in various places?"

Yunxi nodded.

Only then did Shangguan Bailin say: "I went this time, and I made sure about it. Did you know that half of the taxes in Dajing don't belong to the imperial court now. All of them have been taken over by a force."

"What?" Yunxi stood up in shock.

"Yunxi, that is indeed the case. And I suspect that the dark power is most likely the greatest power left behind by Empress Shangguan back then."

Yun Xi stood there blankly. If this was the case, then the treason of the Yun family was most likely arranged by Empress Shangguan.

It was inevitable that the country would be destroyed by the end of the year, and Empress Shangguan knew that nothing could be changed, so she obtained great benefits from the Xiao family based on that power.This will lay the foundation for the future restoration of the country.

It's just that she didn't expect that her grandfather and grandmother had long lost the intention of restoring the country, so they put the tokens left by her on the shelf.

So much so that the Yun family had thoughts that they shouldn't have.And that power also fell into the hands of others.

It's all understood now...
