Tang Yihai got married not long after he passed the imperial examination, and it was only a few months away from the next year's imperial examination.
In addition, there were many things to do in the early days of the new emperor's reign. As one of the new emperor's confidants, Tang Ming'an was naturally very busy.
Therefore, the Tang family temporarily settled down in the provincial capital.
Tang Ming'an also sent someone over to Tangjia Village to let them know, and left a group of people to guard secretly in case of any unexpected accidents.
As for the Ye family, they are being watched over by Lin Lang.
According to information obtained by Tang Mingan's men, Lin Lang's "family members" have been settling down in towns near Tangjia Village over the past three years.
Therefore, Tang Mingan was not worried about the safety of the Ye family.
After solving the Prime Minister's Mansion, the next one is Huai'an Palace.
Logically speaking, the case of confusing the royal bloodline and replacing the prince with a cat more than 50 years ago would have been exaggerated and minimized due to the many years and complexity of the incident.
As the new emperor's foundation is not yet stable upon ascending the throne, it is best not to move.
But who made General Tang the real son-in-law of the old King of Huai'an? Moreover, this was also the condition for the new emperor to cooperate with General Tang.
You help me ascend the throne, and I will help you bring down the Huai'an Palace.
As a result, the Huai'an Palace, which has become increasingly low-key since the fall of the Prime Minister, has been plagued by troubles in recent days.
Today, the eldest son was speaking out in Shuyuanxuan, expressing his dissatisfaction with the new emperor openly and covertly.
Tomorrow the young master will fight with the second son of the Taifu family and break the other's head.
Within a few days, rumors spread that the second young lady, who was about to get married, was having an affair with the guards around her.
The noble lady sitting in front of the dressing table looked even gloomier after hearing the news the maid had inquired about.
Su Yuqing realized that the situation was not good after Tang Sanfeng's Delicious Restaurant and Tang Erhai's Jinwei Pavilion appeared three years ago and affected her restaurant and shop.
Obviously, she had already prepared all the recipes of the delicious restaurant in her previous life, and had also asked people to make all kinds of wood carvings that were popular among wealthy businessmen in the Golden Silk Pavilion in advance.
Why were Delicious Restaurant and Golden Pavilion still able to continue operating? Su Yuqing had no idea.
Just in case, she even sent people to Tangjia Village to let Tang Sanfeng and Tang Erhai have an accident.
It's a pity that these two little devils are too tough and can't die like this, Su Yuqing frowned and said resentfully in her heart.
If she had known earlier, she should not have taken over the people sent by the prince for the sake of that little bit of profit. She regretted it.
Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world.
Now, she had to figure out how to get through this difficult time.
After being reborn, it is impossible for her to live a worse life than in her previous life.
"Where is the prince?"
"My Lady, the Prince was summoned by Concubine Iris after he returned home."
"That bastard!" Su Yuqing's face twisted instantly when she heard it, and her eyes were piercingly vicious.
Concubine Yi is the Princess Huai'an in the previous life. They were a loving couple in the previous life.
Su Yuqing always believed that the woman had replaced her to become the princess. If she had not regretted her marriage in her previous life, she would have been the one living in love with the Prince of Huai'an.
Even now she still thinks so, that it was that woman who took away the prince's soul.
Regardless of how dark Su Yuqing's thoughts were at this moment, the Huai'an Palace had been encountering more and more troubles recently.
Prince Huai'an, who initially thought it was just a coincidence, also realized that the new emperor must have been behind this.
Thinking of the fall of the Prime Minister's Office, Prince Huai'an felt that he could no longer sit and wait for death.
While the new emperor's foundation is not stable, Prince Huai'an begins to contact people secretly.
Previously, the Prime Minister and the Third Prince had launched a palace coup, but Prince Huai'an actually did not agree with it.
It is indeed easier to succeed if you launch a palace coup soon after ascending the throne, but others can also think of it as you can.
Why do you have to do this when others are most alert?
Of course, Prince Huai'an also understood that the Third Prince's situation was indeed urgent at the time.
There are only a few possible outcomes for the person who loses the bid for the throne. If the new emperor is cruel, the end is death.
If the new emperor still cared about his brotherly love, at most he would exchange his fiefdom for a barren land so that he would not starve to death.
This time, the new emperor would never have thought that someone would launch a second palace coup.
Moreover, his life experience was always a thorn in his heart. Huai'an King thought that after he won the throne, he would have to find a way to get rid of the Ye family. As conspiracies from all sides surged, time passed slowly.
A few months later, in the spring of the second year after the provincial examination, the metropolitan examination was approaching.
At this time, anyone with a discerning eye could see the restlessness in the Huai'an Palace.
However, the current Prince of Huai'an, with the connivance and encouragement of the new emperor and Tang Ming'an, believes that he has a sure win.
His growing ambition blinded his eyes. Seeing this, several experienced and shrewd ministers shook their heads and sighed in their hearts.
It seems that the new emperor is preparing to take action against the Huai'an Palace.
As the situation became more urgent, Tang Mingan was worried that something unexpected might happen because he was too far away to be able to handle it, so he brought his parents and his eldest brother's family to the imperial city.
The Ye family is the key to the "True and False King of Huai'an" incident and the top priority of Tang Ming'an's protection mission.
A simple excuse would not be able to hide from Lin Lang, the bandit leader, so Tang Mingan told him the general situation of the Ye family.
So, the Ye family also went to the imperial city.
As for their houses and fertile fields in Tangjia Village, they assigned special people to look after them. After all, they would definitely come back to retire there in the future.
Therefore, the Tang and Ye families have now settled down in the imperial city, and they live next to each other, making it convenient for them to take care of each other.
The day before the imperial examination, the three Tang siblings gathered again in Tang Yihai's study.
The original small study has been replaced with a larger one. The first thing you see when you enter is the rows of bookshelves filled with books.
The three siblings had also heard various rumors about the Huai'an Palace.
Unlike others, the three siblings, who had long known that their father was cooperating with the new emperor, guessed early on that it must be their father who had started to take action.
Actually, there wasn't much to talk about in the study this time, but it was just their habit to get together to discuss any important matters.
However, the imminent destruction of the Huai'an Palace was indeed a big deal.
"It feels like we didn't do anything to help the Prime Minister fall. In a few days, the Huai'an Palace will be almost the same." Tang Sanfeng sighed.
If you think about it carefully, it seems that it is their father who is busy.
"You can't say that. You two have contributed a lot over the past three years." Tang Yihai smiled.
In particular, Tang Sanfeng's Delicious Restaurant had a huge impact among several countries and changed the food trend of that era.
It also increased the bargaining chips of their Tang family or their father.
"I understand my own situation. If it weren't for my father's help, I wouldn't be able to achieve such a large scale on my own." Tang Sanfeng smiled, with some helplessness in his eyes.
The further Tang Sanfeng goes on, the bigger his shortcomings become, and from then on, it is basically his father who is in control of the overall situation.
All she can do is provide a recipe and some modern marketing and management techniques.
However, her father was determined to train her, and Tang Sanfeng grew a lot in these three years.
Tang Sanfeng is like this, and Tang Erhai is not much better.
All I can say is that without social experience, they will definitely suffer great losses in the future. Fortunately, their father is powerful and has many talented people around him.
Otherwise, how could an ordinary time traveler become the richest businessman in the world and open restaurants in several countries in just three years?
But speaking of her father, Tang Sanfeng suddenly remembered the problem that she had forgotten before.
"Do you remember the content of that novel? I don't think my father played a big role in it..."
After reading the novel, the three siblings tentatively placed the novel in their father and mother's room. Later, when they saw that their father had no reaction, they did not mention it again.
Three years had passed, and Tang Sanfeng only vaguely remembered the general plot.
Just now she tried to recall the contents of the novel and found that her father did not seem to be in it.
"That novel...it seems like my father's ending is death in the battlefield..." Tang Yihai, who always had a good memory, suddenly spoke out.
"It seems so..." Tang Erhai also nodded.
Tang Sanfeng was shocked when she heard what her two brothers said. She skipped a lot when she watched the movie, only watching the beginning and the ending.
So, although I was confused at the time as to why my father didn't show up, I didn't pay much attention to it because I was in a hurry.
Who would have thought that this would be the end of my father.
"Which chapter did you mention that?"
He forgot which chapter mentioned Tang Yihai, but he was deeply impressed by the ending of his father in the novel.
Because the news of his father's death in the battlefield was brought back to Tangjia Village not long after Tang Yihai passed the imperial examination in the novel.
After listening to Tang Yihai's story, the atmosphere became a little stagnant.
However, this is only the content of the novel, and the novel does not match their world.
Having clarified this, they changed the subject.
Anyway, they have their father to support them even if the sky falls, so the three siblings are no longer worried all day long like they were three years ago.
Just do what you need to do, it’s just the Huai’an Palace, their powerful father can handle everything!
The three siblings, who were mysteriously confident in their father, no longer paid attention to the Huai'an Palace and continued to develop their own careers.
After a few days, the trial will end.
Because the palace examination was right after the joint examination, the results came out very quickly and Tang Yihai ranked second.
The palace examination was presided over by the emperor. Tang Yihai looked up at the new emperor sitting on the throne and happened to meet the emperor's gaze.
Tang Yihai was stunned for a moment, then quickly lowered his head.
In the end, Tang Yihai won the third place.
The top scorer was a middle-aged man, and the second place winner was about 25 or 26 years old, so it was indeed a bit strange that Tang Yihai, a 15-year-old third place winner, was among them.
On the day of the parade, people from both the Tang and Ye families came out to watch, and they even booked a large private room facing the street.
One day, a month after the palace examination, Tang Sanfeng, who had just returned from outside, heard from others that the Huai'an Palace had been raided.
After a moment's pause, he ran to his second brother to find out what was going on.
It turned out that an old minister met their grandfather Ye Qimin one day.
Whether it was accidental or intentional, the old minister was stunned when he saw their grandfather's face.
Then, during the morning court session the next day, the upright and outspoken old minister spoke his mind directly in the court.
According to an official who was present at the scene, Prince Huai'an's face became frighteningly gloomy when he heard this.
If you say there is no inside story, they won't believe it.
No one knew whether it was out of guilt or they just wanted to go all out, but that night there was a huge battle in the palace.
Before dawn the next day, the Huai'an Palace was raided.
"What about the reborn girl? The Princess of Huai'an. How is she?" Tang Sanfeng asked curiously.
Tang Sanfeng wished to cut the reborn girl into pieces who was suspected of taking the lives of the original owner's three siblings.
"I heard he was crazy. He was talking nonsense on the day he was arrested." Tang Erhai said without raising his head while busy with the wood carving in his hands.
"Crazy?" Tang San frowned in disbelief, "A person who has been reborn cannot have such a weak endurance."
"Just act crazy and stupid, you can't escape anyway."
The protagonist discussed by the two siblings was now imprisoned in a dark prison.
At this time, Su Yuqing had her hair disheveled and smelled bad, completely losing the dignity and nobility she had as a princess before.
It was pitch black all around, with the only light coming from the small iron window.
Suddenly, steady footsteps were heard, and soon the oil lamp outside the iron fence was lit.
As if frightened by the bright light, the figure huddled in the corner shrank back further, muttering "Don't kill me, don't kill me..."
"Su Yuqing..." A cold voice sounded.
The man seemed to tremble, and the voice stopped for a few seconds, and then continued to repeat the sentence.
…
After hearing what the man said, Su Yuqing's body trembled violently, and she stumbled to the iron railing, reaching out to try to grab his clothes.
"Who are you?! Why do you know all this?!" Su Yuqing's face, which was pressed against the iron railing, became distorted and looked crazy.
"I know you are also reborn, right?! I have never hurt you, why are you doing this?! Why?!!" Su Yuqing waved her hands, trying to grab him with her five fingers like claws.
The man took a step back, stopping just out of her reach.
"You've never hurt anyone?" The man sneered. "When you wake up in the middle of the night, tell them you've never hurt anyone."
The man turned and left.
Watching the man's figure slowly disappear into the darkness and the oil lamp gradually dimming, Su Yuqing finally became scared.
"No! Let me out! I didn't hurt anyone and they are not dead! Come back! Come back to me!!"
The prison became dark again, and the originally high and hoarse shouts gradually became lower and lower until there was no sound anymore.
Five years later, a straw mat was found at a mass grave somewhere near the prison.
After staying in the imperial city for five years, Tang Ming'an resigned and returned to Tangjia Village with her husband and young son.
Also traveling with him were Tang’s elderly father and mother, as well as his eldest brother’s family.
After the incident of "the real and fake Prince Huai'an" was exposed, the Prince Huai'an's Palace was also raided.
Ye Qimin didn't want to be the King of Huaian anymore when he got older, and when he asked his eldest son, he also didn't want to.
So the Ye family returned to Tangjia Village five years ago. In response, the emperor could only leave the money that Ye Qimin's biological father left to his son to him, and sent guards to escort them back.
As for Tang Yihai, he originally wanted to resign from his official position and go home to be a teacher like his father.
However, the emperor did not agree, so he could only stay in the imperial city with his husband and children.
Tang Erhai and Tang Sanfeng still have business to do, and they can't just give it up whenever they want. In the end, they can only stay in the imperial city to accompany their eldest brother.
But a year later, the two siblings also abandoned their eldest brother and happily returned to Tangjia Village to find their father and grandmother.
At the age of 20, Tang Sanfeng is already considered an old maid in this era.
She has no plans to get married yet, but she has her father's support and no longer cares about the rumors about her.
Her ideal type is a man like her father, who would do all the laundry and cooking, never lose his temper with her, and love her the same way for decades.
Unfortunately, there are too few good men who can be loyal in love.
If there is no love, then she can just enjoy family affection.
Tang Erhai, like Tang Sanfeng, originally insisted on not getting married, but he met a man when he was 25 years old.
Finally, with the blessings of their family, the two were together.
Five years later, Tang Yihai, who finally resigned successfully, returned to Tangjia Village with her husband and children.
As he wished, he opened a small academy and became a teacher.
