One Word Says It All (1)

Jing Wan quietly listened to the side. Such obvious abnormality, how could she not make out.

Jing Wan was also very much puzzled inside. Le Cheng Emperor although was a bit mediocre, but his brain didn’t have holes, so how come he did such a thing, disregarding Qi Yuan’s safety.

Under Li Hong Yuan’s indication, Yu Zhong Qing had the other matters today explained one by one. Any areas he overlooked, Ruan Rui Zhong and Luo Pei Shan just filled in.

“Since things have already become fixed, then just leave it as such. Later, when time comes, we can then make plans.” Li Hong Yuan said.

“Wangye, the matter concerns the state of the nation, don’t know why his Majesty would do such an absurd thing, how could…………”

“Sir Ruan, his Majesty is the ruler, and we are the subjects. Wangye is also as well, so some things, even if Sir Ruan is worried, still need to slowly make plans for.” Luo Pei Shan somewhat consolingly said.

Ruan Rui Zhong sighed, “Wangye, please forgive, it was this subject that was impatient.”

“Sir Ruan harbors the world, wholeheartedly thinking for the country and the people, so it is understandable. However, things also aren’t that terrible. This ultimately is his land, so no matter how much he messes around, he still needs to think of how to face the ancestors after he passes.” Since it was different from the past life, and in essence it was also just wanting Fu Yun Ting as well as the entire Wu’an Marquis Manor to perish, seeing the young and valiant Fu Yun Ting at present, afraid this intent to kill grew even heavier, thus changing his strategy. If a problem just arises in battle in the beginning, then he naturally will be able to punish the main commander, switching with a capable general. That way, his goal can be accomplished smoothly. In the past life, perhaps he also had similarly plans, just he ultimately underestimated Fu Yun Ting, and as a result, did that kind of deranged thing, sacrificing two hundred thousand plus soldiers.

“Besides, the Fu family’s illustrious name in the past far surpassed the current He family. Fu Yun Ting who is holding up the house, towards the Wu’an Marquis Manor’s circumstances, how could he be indifferent? He is very clear inside, the Fu family can only advance and cannot retreat. As such, how could he not have preparations, don’t underestimate him.”

“It was this subject’s thoughts that went astray. Since it’s someone that wangye values, he certainly won’t be lacking. However, since wangye mentioned the He family, perhaps we can advise his Majesty to let the He family young master accompany along? The He family’s youngest son, in the battle in the northeast, obtained outstanding military accomplishments. This is also something known to all.” Ruan Rui Zhong said.

In the end, regardless of what Li Hong Yuan says, Fu Yun Ting was still too young, the so called, ‘not having a mustache, unreliable in work’, and he also wasn’t like He Shi Hai who had accomplishments obtained through actual battles, so one ultimately was unable to rest assured. It’s not that they didn’t believe in Li Hong Yuan, but rather, it’s that they didn’t believe in Fu Yun Ting.

“He wants Fu Yun Ting to die, and the Wu’an Marquis Manor to perish, so how could he possibly sacrifice He Shi Hai who has boundless future prospects. Sir Ruan can just worry about governing the country. As for bring peace and stability to the country, no need to worry about.” Li Hong Yuan picked up the teacup by his hand, shallowly taking a sip.

Once these words came out, it wasn’t just Ruan Rui Zhong that was surprised. Although Le Cheng Emperor’s attitude was strange, they still didn’t expect that he actually had this kind of thought. To say it was Jin Qinwang that made a mistake? But it wasn’t possible. They’d witnessed not just once Jin Qinwang’s demon-like wisdom and heaven defying skills. The things he was certain of certainly won’t be wrong.

“Did his Majesty say why he wants to extinguish the Fu family? For the sake of Qi Yuan, the Fu family has had countless casualties, in the end, just leaving behind Fu Yun Ting alone to forcibly uphold the family. Regardless of which aspect, his Majesty should treat the Fu family well, but the things that his Majesty has done were merely just to deceive the common people. Towards the court official, towards the upper class, he doesn’t even bother to cover up. Sometimes, it was practically just wishing for someone, anyone, to be able to step on the Wu’an Marquis Manor. How is it not preposterous, and how is it not bitterly disappointing? But, all of this, exactly what is the reason why?”

Why? Li Hong Yuan also wanted to know why.

“In the Li imperial clan, is there something similar to ‘after however many emperors, the Fu replaces the Li’, this kind of rumor?” Jing Wan who was quietly pretending to be a wallflower couldn’t help but open her mouth.

Li Hong Yuan blanked, and together with the others, simultaneously looked towards Jing Wan. Jing Wan felt the pressure, and somewhat uncomfortably shifted, her smile also a bit awkward, “I was just randomly saying, so certainly can’t be taken as the truth.” Jing Wan pursed her lips, inwardly scolding herself. These kinds of words, can they just be said randomly? If not careful, that really might bring disaster to the entire Wu’an Marquis Manor.

TN: All

However, Li Hong Yuan suddenly facepalmed and laughed, “Sure enough, it’s still Wan Wan that’s smart. Although absurd, this kind of explanation was the most reasonable.” Li Hong Yuan finished laughing, propping his head up with one hand, “The Fu family, as one of the original four dukes and nine marquises, from the start, just established themselves through military prowess, producing countless brave young men. Since the founding of Qi Yuan, the long line of outstanding military generals from the Fu family, prior to the current Wu’an Marquis’s body falling ill, have never once been interrupted. To call them a stabilizing force in Qi Yuan all wouldn’t be an exaggeration. Reasonably speaking, this kind of family should be a leader among the meritorious nobles, but the reality was instead the Fu family continuously getting intentionally or otherwise suppressed by the person on the throne. Every time, after triumphing in war, on the surface, it would appear like brocade made of fresh flowers, but in reality, on the inside, it was nevertheless weakening a little every time. But, once the Fu family makes a mistake, they will immediately be punished severely. Falling from a duke to a marquis was precisely because of this. If not for the Fu family enduring generation after generation, using the lives of the men in the family in exchange generation after generation, afraid they would’ve already perished. Yet, it just so happens that this kind of ‘courage and fearlessness’ increasingly made the person on the throne wary. Having power in hand was a dead end, but without power, one will just die even quicker, heh………….”

That’s why, it wasn’t the Fu family insisting on doing everything they can to hold onto military power. It was truly getting forced into a corner, having no other choice.

Now, having reached the end of the road, Le Cheng Emperor precisely took the opportunity to scheme against them further, openly crushing to death this cockroach, not even damaging his own reputation in the slightest.

The scene for moment sunk into silence.

It was obvious, everyone all accepted this kind of explanation. Although the specific reason was still unknown, it was certain that the Fu family ‘threatened’ the imperial family.

Speaking of which, this kind of thing was actually complete nonsense, but it wasn’t necessary just wind from an empty cave. It must be that in the very beginning, the Fu family had produced certain thoughts, or perhaps offended someone ruthless, and thus would get schemed against as such. In reality, the person on the throne may not necessarily really believe. Just, because the matter concerned the throne, that was just a taboo among taboos. Never mind having that tiny bit of shadow, even if it was just a word, all must be cleanly eradicated at the root. Just, the Fu family’s bones were a bit too hard, their life force a bit too tenacious.

“How did Wan Wan think of this?” Li Hong Yuan somewhat intriguingly asked.

How did she think of? Whether or not something like this happened in the history of her past life, she didn’t know, but in the tv dramas, there was nevertheless such a plot. Hearing Le Cheng Emperor’s strange attitude, she just strangely made the connection, “Just suddenly thought of.” Jing Wan felt a bit guilty inside. This kind of thing, she couldn’t even use folk stories to dodge. After all, no one that writes storybooks would have such big guts.
