Chapter 252 The prince consort is different from the prince consort!
The two little guys had been secretly following the housekeeper of the Huo Mansion. As it was getting dark, the housekeeper turned into a remote alley and picked up a doctor carrying a medicine box from an ordinary family.
Afraid that the secret guards would lose him and get worried, little Tangbao blinked his big round eyes, like a lucky cat, one hand pinching his waist, the other hand reaching up to grab at the air...
After hearing a few "whoosh" sounds, several black-robed secret guards immediately appeared in front of Tang Bao, clasped their fists and saluted, "Little Princess, Master Xiao."
Tang Bao covered her mouth with her hands, and said mysteriously, "Leave three uncles to continue watching, and the rest of you will follow me to the Huo Mansion."
Just as the little guy had made all the arrangements, a dark shadow suddenly appeared.
Chengfeng, who had just finished his errand, rushed over and picked up little Tangbao before the secret guard could do so. He pinched her under the armpits and spun her around several times.
Little Tangbao, who was suddenly lifted up high, curved his eyebrows and tried hard not to laugh out loud. He was extremely happy.
The secret guard stretched out his arms but found nothing, and his smile froze on his face. He could only pick up Xiao Qingye with a forced smile and followed Chengfeng closely as he ran towards the Huo Mansion.
Standing on the courtyard wall of the Huo Mansion, Chengfeng first glared at the secret guard beside him with disgust, and asked him to send Xiao Qingye back to the Xiao Mansion immediately to avoid worrying the Xiao family.
Then he looked at the sweet and soft baby in his arms with a smile, and said arrogantly, "I will take the princess to fly high...", then he tapped his toes lightly, jumped onto the roof of the Huo Mansion in a few jumps.
The group gently lifted the roof tiles and looked down, and saw the old lady of the Huo family and the eldest master of the Huo family, Huo Tianheng, lying on two Luohan couches, one on the east and the other on the west. They looked at the door from time to time, with a bit of anxiety in their expressions, as if they were waiting for someone.
The night wind blew across the roof, bringing with it a slight rustling sound.
About a quarter of an hour later, the doctor carrying the medicine box walked into the house alone, while the housekeeper of the Huo family stood in the middle of the yard, observing the surroundings vigilantly.
"Tian Ling?" Huo Tianheng suddenly propped himself up with his hands, twisting his neck with great effort, his voice filled with surprise and doubt, "Third brother? Is it really you?"
The person who came had an unfamiliar face, and it was clearly not Huo Tianling.
But Butler Qin clearly said that it was Tian Ling who specifically asked him to take him back to the mansion tonight. Firstly, he wanted to see the old lady, and secondly, he had something to tell them...
"Brother, I have changed my appearance." The man responded hurriedly, his voice hoarse and low.
He rushed to Mrs. Huo's couch in two steps, his voice trembling with excitement, "Mother! Are you still able to hold on? Is your injury still painful?"
As soon as he returned, he heard that the empty tomb he had used to conceal his true identity had been dug up! His mother and eldest brother had angered the Daliang Emperor, and not only were they both beaten, but his eldest brother also lost his official position, and his second brother was also cut off from establishing his own family...
Hearing the other party's voice, Huo Tianheng was stunned at first, then he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although the voice was much more vicissitudes than in his memory, after listening carefully, he found that it was indeed his third brother.
Old Madam Huo cried softly, raised her hand tremblingly, and wanted to touch Huo Tianling's face...
Huo Tianling's eyes became hot, and he simply tore off the human skin mask.
Looking at the face in front of her that looked 50% similar to Huo Tianheng, Mrs. Huo suddenly covered her mouth and sobbed, "My son... I miss you so much... You are finally... finally back..."
At this critical moment, Huo Tianheng had no time to watch the scene of mother and son reuniting and crying. His mind was full of thoughts about going to Yan State with Huo Tianling.
He glanced at Huo Tianling calmly and sighed deliberately, "Third brother, in order to cover up your fake death, your brother and mother have deeply offended Princess Zhaoning of Prince Qing's Mansion!"
"You may not know this, but now that the Emperor's lineage has died out, Princess Zhaoning is increasingly favored by the ministers and the Emperor! No one can afford to offend her... Our Huo family is completely finished now!"
"After learning that our ancestral tomb had been destroyed, my mother specifically begged the eldest princess to come up the mountain with us yesterday, hoping she could help us..."
"But who would have thought that not only did she not say a word for our Huo family, but she also took advantage of our misfortune and directly cut a clear line with our Huo family!"
"Third brother, it seems that the princess's affection for you has worn off! In Xijing City, I'm afraid our Huo family will never be able to make a name for themselves again... Now in Daliang, apart from us family members, there is no one who cares about you anymore!"
Huo Tianheng glanced at Huo Tianling's face while he was talking. Seeing that he remained indifferent, he suddenly changed the subject:
"Third brother, since you're so determined to be a consort to the emperor, why don't you become the consort to the emperor of Daliang, who's right under your nose, and choose to be the consort to the emperor of Yan? How are you doing in Yan now?"
These words hit the nail on the head for Mrs. Huo. She stopped crying immediately and looked at her youngest son with complaining eyes.
Huo Tianling pulled over a chair with a sullen face, sat on it and sneered...
"Daliang's ancestral rules clearly state that a prince consort is not allowed to enter the government, and his descendants are not allowed to hold office in the capital...Apart from that worthless Liu Jiqing, who would be willing to ruin their future and marry the princess?"
"If I really become the consort of the Daliang Emperor, I will never be able to command the army again in this lifetime! By then, what place will my Huo family have in the court?"
"Mother, Big Brother, I don't have any true feelings for Yun Zhiwei. From the beginning to the end, I was just using her!"
"???" Huo Tianheng was puzzled: "But aren't you still a prince consort now?"
Huo Tianling's tone suddenly turned cold, and he just said, "The prince consort is different from the prince consort," and said no more.
When he first joined the military camp, he followed his father to fight the enemy, but was accidentally captured by the Yan army. It was Princess Qingyuan who saved him.
Although Princess Yan is not as talented and beautiful as the noble lady of Daliang, Princess Qingyuan loves him dearly and is even willing to disobey her father for him.
The year he first arrived in Yan State, he was tortured until he wrote down all the information he could. Only then was he allowed to leave the prison and live in Princess Qingyuan's mansion.
Although he did not love Princess Qingyuan, he had to marry her. In order to gain the trust of Prince Yan, he left behind solid evidence of treason, and was then allowed to return to Daliang as a spy for Yan.
The soldiers only thought that he was seriously injured and fell into the glacier, and only returned to the barracks after a narrow escape from death, so no one suspected anything.
Only after he came back did he find out that Princess Qingyuan had given birth to a son for him!
During the two years at the border, he secretly returned to Yan State to see the child. The child's eyes and eyebrows really looked like him!
Princess Qingyuan promised him that as long as he could get the border map of Daliang and make Prince Yan trust him completely, she would do her best to support their son to ascend the throne of Yan.
The Prince of Yan's health is deteriorating day by day. When his son ascends the throne, the power of the Yan Kingdom will be in his hands! ?
