It's hard for Wei Huai'en not to regard Xiao Qi as the most special one. He is like an exquisite container that only belongs to her. No matter whether she is good or bad, he takes in everything and remembers every one of her.

He will never judge her, he will only reshape himself according to what she likes.

Being with him always makes her feel at ease and comfortable.

She didn't have a big appetite, so the dishes Xiao Qi brought were all small and delicate. After taking a few more bites, Wei Huai'en put down his chopsticks and rinsed his mouth.

"Xiao Qi, can Li Kong still be used?"

Xiao Qi's heart was slightly shaken, and Wei Huai'en looked indifferent and distant now, just like every time he gave him an order before.

If he had known earlier, he should have asked Shui Jing more. Looking at this situation, Wei Huai'en's days of standing by and watching are coming to an end.

"Back to my master, this slave thinks that small things are fine, but the rest... cannot be trusted."

"Is it just money?"

"……yes."

"Did he take over Yan Weiguang's power in Nanlin Mansion and join King Duan?"

"How does Master know?"

Xiao Qi looked at her and half-knelt on the ground and told her everything he knew about Prince Duan's whereabouts.

It was quite different from what Wei Huai'en had guessed. Although Li Kong was far less powerful than Yan Weiguang, the forces in the Nanlin Mansion still obeyed his orders, and the relationship between Prince Duan and Nanlin changed from overt to covert, making it harder to control him than before.

It is not surprising that Li Kong made such a choice. After the sudden change that day, Wei Huaien left the capital in a hurry, and Xiao Qi was no longer the deputy commander of the Xuan Yu Division.

Even if Xiao Qi gave him a good job and allowed him to join the Xuanyu Division as an old member of the Huwei camp, it would not be as good as Duan Wang's real exchange of interests.

Anyone with a discerning eye would know that the prince is weak, and fearing that the year will not be false, the only prince who is of the right age is King Duan.

Moreover, I heard that Princess Duan is pregnant, but it has not been announced yet.

In addition to the immediate wealth and future, there is also Li Kong's own delusion about Meng Keshu.

He kidnapped her the day the Meng family entered Nanlin Mansion. Except for her, no one in the entire Meng family survived.

Because Xiao Qichang did not learn about such a big deal at Huangen Temple at the first time, Li Kong could no longer betray King Duan.

Because he wanted to hide this from Meng Keshu and exchange her family's safety for her to live obediently in his house and not seek death.

And because of his presence, King Duan was able to intervene in the affairs of Xuanyu Division.

Wei Huaien sighed after hearing this. What Xiao Qi said was almost exactly what she guessed.

No matter how controlled the Xuan Yu Division was by the emperor, it would inevitably be mixed with various forces. This was the case for any yamen. She did not feel bad about using her hard work to make wedding clothes for others.

However, Emperor Yonghe's intention was very clear. He would not establish Prince Duan as the crown prince, because the "prince" would have been in the palace to raise the third son of the emperor Wei Huaike until he was ten years old.

die.

Before that, Emperor Yonghe asked her to play the role of suppressing King Duan to atone for the stability of his kingdom.

This road was the road to power that she had tried her best to embark on before, but now she had to go on it according to the arrangements of Emperor Yonghe.

Maybe Wei Huai'en should be grateful, and should be grateful to Emperor Yonghe for not pursuing the matter and allowing her to continue to interfere in the court.

But she spent so long, locking herself in Huang'en Temple without leaving the house, and she still could not calmly accept her biological father's plan to use her children as chess pieces in a game.

She also felt that Emperor Yonghe was hypocritical. It was clear that his brother died tragically in the conspiracy of King Duan, and she had always wanted to bring down King Duan so that he would never be able to stand up again.

But Emperor Yonghe always wanted her to restrain herself, just because he didn't want to see flesh and blood killing each other.

But is Emperor Yonghe himself clean? Who didn’t step on the corpse of his brother from a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood to ascend to the throne? How can such a person pretend to be kind and keep teaching them kindness and friendship?

After knowing that Marquis Dingyuan was the real culprit of her brother's murder, her good father was still planning to stabilize his country and the balance of power between the two sides.

Like an indifferent spectator at the Colosseum, he talks about benevolence, justice and morality, but in his heart he loves the sight of sitting on a high platform and watching people fight to the death for power.

She could guess that Emperor Yonghe would not give her much more time to self-exile.
