The scholar kept his head down, and only after Xiao Rong left did he frown and look at Xiao Rong's back.
Seeing Qu Yunmie and Xiao Rong rushing out one after another, Yu Shaocheng thought something had happened and followed them quickly. Qu Yunmie returned to his residence and paced back and forth like a trapped beast. He had a destructive desire in his heart, and he had to vent it.
When Xiao Rong stepped in, he just saw him kick over the strange stone ornament in the center of the hall. The stone was taller than Qu Yunmie and weighed a conservative estimate of 800 kilograms.
Xiao Rong: “…”
There is endless energy in a day.
There was no Taihu stone at that time. This stone was just a solid rock that looked a bit good. It was kept by the prefect of Chenliu because it was worthless and too big and heavy.
After being kicked by Qu Yunmie, the stone was naturally broken, which made Xiao Rong sigh.
He said, "My king, I will make you a tumbler someday. When you are angry in the future, you can take it out on the tumbler. Please don't destroy your residence again."
Qu Yunmie: “…………”
He turned his head with a twisted expression, looking at Xiao Rong with eyes that seemed to want to eat him, but Xiao Rong was calm about this look. He also turned to look at Yu Shaocheng who was hesitating whether to come in or not: "Commander Yu, please go and find out the names of the two people Huang Yanjiong brought today, especially the one who presented the sword to the king. Find out more carefully."
Yu Shaocheng looked at Qu Yunmie and seeing that he had no objection, he responded and left.
Qu Yunmie asked him angrily, "Why are you asking about this?"
Xiao Rong: "Don't you think this is strange? He first rushed here day and night without stopping, then asked for an audience at night, not afraid of disturbing your sweet dreams. After seeing you, he still had such an openly provocative attitude. In my opinion, Huang Yanjiong is eager for you to kill him."
The anger on Qu Yunmie's face paused slightly. He didn't quite understand: "Why did he do this?"
Xiao Rong smiled and said, "That depends on the results of Yu Shaocheng's inquiries. If I'm not mistaken, the person who presented the sword should be surnamed Huang."
Qu Yunmie wasn't really stupid. After Xiao Rong said that, he thought about it for a while and figured out the key. After thinking about it again, he said a name in shock: "Huang Keji?!"
Xiao Rong: “…………”
What were the parents thinking, giving their child such a name?
Xiao Rong poured himself a cup of tea, then sat down opposite Qu Yunmie and listened to him talk about who Huang Keji was.
Huang Keji is the only son of Huang Yanqin. Huang Yanqin had everything in his life except that his son came a little late. He married a lot of wives, but only one of his concubines gave birth to a son for him, and all the others gave birth to daughters.
Qu Yunmie didn't know what happened next, but in the year he was there, Huang Yanqin had only this precious child. The more Qu Yunmie thought about it, the more certain he was. Although the child had changed a little, he had seen the child before, and his features were the same as the young man just now.
Ten years ago, Huang Keji was only six years old, and now he is sixteen, only two years older than Xiao Yi.
Qu Yunmie was obviously not the kind of person who cared about other people's families. This was all he knew, but Xiao Rong nodded. He could infer what happened next by himself: "The head of the Huang family is Huang Yanqin. If he hadn't died early, all the family wealth of the Huang family should belong to Huang Keji. But he died early, and Huang Keji was only nine years old at that time, not enough to support the Huang family. Huang Yanjiong inherited his brother's property and took care of his nephew at the same time. Not only did others not blame him, they also praised him for being friendly to his brothers. But this matter is indeed a bit embarrassing. Regardless of whether Huang Keji has that idea or not, his existence is a thorn in Huang Yanjiong, because when Huang Keji grows up, those who were originally loyal to Huang Yanqin will begin to urge him to return everything to Huang Keji."
Qu Yunmie said in a low voice: "Just like Li Xiuheng and my brother."
Xiao Rong was stunned. He had not expected this.
After a slight pause, Xiao Rong hummed, "Yes, it's the same situation. But the Huang family is different from the Zhenbei Army. Li Xiuheng is a waste, but Huang Yanjiong is quite capable. Huang Keji's growing up process may not be very good. His uncle is too powerful, and he must have been suppressed all the time."
Huang Yanji had always felt that his nephew was an eyesore, and now that he had such a good opportunity, he thought of killing two birds with one stone. He could not only send his nephew to heaven through Qu Yunmie, thus saving himself from future troubles, but also make Qu Yunmie bear the stigma of being unkind and unjust. He killed the only bloodline of his benefactor, no matter what the reason was, he was killed, and he should be spit on and cursed by thousands of people. In the end, he also got a reason to attack Qu Yunmie in the future, and this reason was so legitimate that no one would stop him. ... Really cruel.
Xiao Rong felt sympathetic, and at the same time, he did not forget to make a deeper impression on Qu Yunmie: "Fortunately, the king did not act impulsively today, otherwise, this infamy would never be washed away in his lifetime. If Huang Keji died in the hands of the king, it would not only be a matter of criticism from scholars, but the whole world would look down on the king."
Qu Yunmie also realized the seriousness of the matter. He nodded heavily. Not only would others look down on him, but he himself would also regret it.
But he is not a person who likes to waste time and energy, he prefers to waste time on others.
So, after regretting for only a second, Qu Yunmie focused all his attention on the sinister Huang Yanjiong. He slammed the table and swore a poisonous oath: "I will not be a human being if I don't kill Huang Yanjiong!"
Xiao Rong: “…”
Come again, come again, come again!
Did you have a facelift on your brain? It's so smooth that you can't think of any other solution except murder!
Xiao Rong sighed, "No! We have uncovered his conspiracy, but we have no evidence to prove that he is so ambitious. If Your Majesty kills him rashly, people outside will think he is innocent. Is Your Majesty trying to make him famous? To make everyone in the world sympathize with him?"
Qu Yunmie: “…” Of course not.
Seeing that he had listened, Xiao Rong was silent for a moment, and then said, "Besides, if he dies, who can we find to attack Xianbei together? In this world, only Huang Yanjiong's soldiers are worth mentioning. Besides, he was defeated today, so he must compensate the king with something. We must get this compensation. The capital has just been built, and we are short of everything. If there is something free, why not take it?"
At this point, Xiao Rong smiled again: "And Huang Keji."
Thinking that the topic was over, Qu Yunmie looked at Xiao Rong in confusion: "What happened to Huang Keji?"
Xiao Rong smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I have owed you this favor for a long time. Do you want to repay it now?"
