Heng Youyi repeated Su Yin's words word for word. After listening to them, the couple looked thoughtful.
“I have to say this is a risky move.”
If His Majesty knew that they had surrendered to the Four Kings, and he wanted to take action against the Heng family again, he would have to consider whether this decision is feasible.
Nowadays, many officials in the court have already silently taken sides, but there are not many people who stand firmly on his side.
Heng Youyi spoke again, "This is not what I want to talk about today. That person said two sentences, these two sentences..."
She paused, which showed how much impact those two sentences had on her.
Both husband and wife felt their daughter's heavy mood, and this heaviness was mixed with a hint of indescribable excitement or even madness.
"One of the sentences says, 'Whether it's the King of Qin, the King of Jing, the King of Yun, or the King of Wu, as long as you delay for a while, you may make new discoveries.'"
This sentence, combined with that person's suggestion, is indeed thought-provoking.
"That person asked another question, which of the four kings is more suitable to sit in that position and will not covet our Heng family?"
The couple also thought about this question in depth and both shook their heads.
None of the four kings is the best candidate. If we really have to choose, I'm afraid King Wu is the most suitable among the four.
"Before I left, she asked a question."
"'If the person sitting in that position is not one of the Four Princes, what will the Heng family do?'"
After these words were spoken, the couple were both stunned, with a hint of astonishment in their eyes.
They were no less shocked than Heng Youyi.
The first sentence may still be vague and carry all kinds of uncertainties, but the second sentence already explains everything very well.
Especially the first and last two sentences, which completely echo each other.
Mother Heng's face was solemn. "That person's intention is to have our Heng family pretend to join the Four Kings and hold them back. When the right time comes, we can cooperate with the people behind her and unify the world."
The information revealed was too terrifying. What was even more terrifying was that their Heng family was actually involved with that party without knowing it.
They don't even know.
Heng Youyi noticed the heavy expressions on his parents' faces and spoke to comfort them, "Dad, Mom, the person who spoke to me today was the one who reminded me to be careful of Fu Wenlin and reminded me that there was a traitor in our Heng family."
"If she hadn't reminded us, our Heng family would have ended up in ruins. I don't think she has any ill will towards our Heng family."
Having said that, none of the three felt at ease.
Their Heng family owed the other party such a great favor, but the other party actually wanted to overthrow Dayong and sit in that position.
They got on board their pirate ship unknowingly and inexplicably.
The head of the Heng family immediately thought of something. "A year ago, the grain store in Tangquan City sent a message that someone used your token to mobilize 150,000 dan of grain to the Northwest Army. Is that person the same person?"
Heng Youyi nodded.
Now the head of the Heng family has completely given up.
Even if they tell outsiders that they have nothing to do with the other party, outsiders will not believe it, especially those powerful people.
In fact, this was really a coincidence, and Su Yin had never thought about it at the time.
At that time, I only thought that Baixing Commercial Bank was huge and had sufficient strength, and with the token given by Heng Youyi, I could get greater protection and feel more at ease.
Mother Heng frowned, "It's useless to think too much now. That person is actually involved with the Northwest Army, and he can quietly take over our Heng family... He is not simple!"
The head of the Heng family nodded and said, "Not only that, the other party was able to spy on Fu Wenlin and that unfilial son's affair, and was able to keep track of the movements of the palace at all times, and so far, no one has noticed. The power behind this is probably beyond the reach of the four kings."
"Dad, this is my fault..." Heng Youyi felt a little guilty, as if everything happened because of her.
Mother Heng held her hand and said, "Silly girl, this is none of your business. The wealth of our Heng family has attracted the attention of the nobles. They will either start with you or someone else in our Heng family. If you were not a daughter of the Heng family, you would not have encountered these things."
The head of the Heng family said, "In fact, if we think positively, the power behind that person is so powerful, it is also an opportunity for us to board their ship."
"Dad, you are..."
At this point, we can only use the Heng family's wealth and go all out to help that person reach the top.
"What if they are here for our wealth as well?"
The head of the Heng family shook his head and nodded, "As far as I know, Fatty Wan, a big merchant in the southwest, also accepted that person's order, which shows that Fatty Wan also boarded that ship. The other party paid the full amount of 150,000 dan of grain and cotton-padded clothes, which shows that they are not short of money."
"The reason why our Heng family caught their eye is probably not just because of our wealth, there must be another reason."
Of course, the other party may also be interested in their wealth as well as their status among the Four Kings.
I don’t know what the person behind the scenes wants them to do.
"Tell that person that no matter what they want to do, the Heng family will do their best."
"good."
Since his father had made the decision, Heng Youyi no longer worried about it.
In this round, the Heng family gambled all their fortunes.
If it succeeds, everyone will prosper.
If you fail, there will be no recovery.
Qin Palace
The King of Qin has been in a good mood these days, unlike his furious performance some time ago. An attendant, with cold sweat on his forehead, hurried into the study and quickly came out covering his cheek. The guards standing at the door heard the furious sounds coming from the study and felt nervous.
"You are such a jerk, Song Yunhe!" Song Zhaoling gritted his teeth in anger.
On their way, several counselors received the news and knew why the prince was looking for them.
"Everyone, come in here, my king."
Three counselors entered the study, and none of them dared to breathe.
Song Zhaoling sat behind the desk with a face as gloomy as water.
"Have you heard about what's happening outside?"
One of the counselors said, "Your Majesty, I have heard something about this."
"Now that we know everything, let's talk about what we should do next? How can we break this situation?"
The gray-robed strategist held a folding fan in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, I have a way to make the other party shoot himself in the foot."
"Tell me about it." Song Zhaoling became interested.
The gray-robed counselor's eyes were full of brilliance, and he said calmly, "The other party actually dared to publicly spread the news that Shunyi Hou was a traitor. Their purpose was to muddy the waters. We might as well take advantage of the situation and drag more people into the water. Those who are dragged into the water will only think of Prince Jing, the only beneficiary of this incident, first. "
In short, it is to create hatred for Prince Jing, do bad things yourself, and throw dirty water on Song Yunhe.
"This is of no use to him." Song Zhaoling was not satisfied with this and felt it was not enough.
The gray-robed strategist continued, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. What I just said is the first step."
