Chapter 229： Recognize relatives (one more)

Chapter 229 Recognizing relatives (one more)

It was only the third generation that the British government passed to Fang Huairui's generation.

The first generation of the British Duke was Fang Huairui's grandfather. At that time, his grandfather revolted with Emperor Taizu and won the title of Duke of the country with his outstanding military achievements.

Emperor Taizu was big-hearted, not like those tyrants in history who died of cunning rabbits and cooked dogs, and shared this great scene with them, who were the heroes of the founding of the country.

There are four tiger talismans in the Dajing Dynasty, which are in the hands of the four princes.

This is the biggest bargaining chip he can come up with, and it is also the greatest sincerity.

Fang Huairui knelt on the ground of the golden bricks, keeping his hands in a talisman position without moving.

In the Dongnuan Pavilion, there was silence.

Time flies very slowly at this time.

Fang Huairui could hear his heartbeat echoing in his ears like a drum, and he could hear the tick of the pot leaking next to him.

After a while, he felt a lightness in his hand, and his heart relaxed.

Chu Yi picked up the tiger talisman, which was only two inches long, from Fang Huairui's hand, played with it casually, and said indifferently, "Emperor Taizu once said: There is no doubt about employing people."

"Taizu Yi Bo Yuntian, I believe that all the soldiers who follow him to conquer the world are all his brothers."

Taizu's life has proved his love and righteousness with this great scene.

"..." Fang Huairui raised his head in confusion, wondering what the First Prince meant.

Could it be that the eldest prince was very satisfied with his surrender, and he kept his tiger talisman?

Chu Yi lowered his eyes and looked at Fang Huairui, who was kneeling on the ground, and Yu Feng turned around again: "But he also said that there is no need for suspects."

He spoke the last four words rather slowly, word by word.

Chu Yi fixedly looked into Fang Huairui's eyes and asked slowly, "You, do you understand what I mean?"

When he said this, the smile on his face had already subsided. Instead of his usual gentleness, he revealed a cold aura.

Fang Huairui's lips moved slightly, and the whiskers on his face also trembled. Once again, he felt that kind of coercion from the seemingly gentle and harmless young man in front of him.

pounding!

Fang Huairui's heartbeat continued to accelerate.

The meaning of the first prince's words couldn't be more clear.

Fang Huairui swallowed his saliva, cold sweat dripped from his forehead, and his half-hanging eyes fell on the three-legged nine-dragon sapphire incense burner in the corner.

This is the incense burner used in the past.

A wisp of blue smoke rose from the incense burner, Fang Huairui felt as if he was fascinated by the smoke, the corners of his eyes were dry and uncomfortable, and his mood was up and down.

Since Jinshang ascended the throne, facing the empress dowager and King Kang's mother and son's pressing step by step towards Jinshang, most of the nobles stood by and watched, and no one was willing to stand in line easily.

After all, King Kang is also the bloodline of Taizu. If they are not afraid of the family sitting on the throne and replace them, it makes no difference to them who is sitting in that position.

They were loyal to the Dajing Dynasty, but not only to the present day.

To put it more horribly, it’s just grass, and nobles, including myself, will swing for their own interests at any time.

Since they are not loyal to Jinshang, how could Jinshang and the eldest prince "believe" them.

Suspect, no need.

Fang Huairui chewed on Chu Yi's words repeatedly, his heart sank completely, as if immersed in a pool of icy cold water.

Chu Yi didn't look at Fang Huairui, his eyes fell on the bronze tiger talisman between his fingers, he shook it, and took it completely into his palm.

This is military power!

Dongnuan Pavilion is extremely quiet.

Fang Huairui knelt on the ground, motionless for a long time, his knees were slightly numb, and the middle clothes on his back were already sweaty.

After a while, Chu Yi's low voice sounded in front of him again: "Yu Si and the Shangqing Association will be executed in the afternoon today, Fang Huairui, are you willing to be this prisoner?"

Fang Huairui looked up at Chu Yi again in astonishment.

looked from bottom to top, and when he glanced over the chessboard, he saw a right hand with slender fingers gently tapping on the table, holding the tiger talisman that he was all too familiar with.

"Tuk Tuk."

This knuckle tap is very light.

could be heard in Fang Huairui's ears, like a life reminder, and like a black and white impermanent soul chain.

Supervisor Zhan Yusi…

Since the ninth day of the lunar new year, those aristocratic families have made countless excuses to the emperor for the Yu family's affairs. The emperor has always ignored them and avoided all requests for advice.

Now that the emperor wants to bypass the family and directly execute Yu Si, it is conceivable that the family will inevitably cause trouble.

And behind the aristocratic family is King Kang.

The eldest prince's mind is clearly revealed, this is making him... no, it is forcing him to make a choice.

Just thinking about it, Fang Huairui felt a sense of suffocation pressing against his chest.

This is a big gamble!

In the past, he surrendered his sincerity to the eldest prince, and offended King Kang several times, but in the end he didn't tear his face.

With the status of the British government, even if Chu Yi lost in this imperial power struggle, King Kang would not dare to touch the British government, and even comforted him in a kind voice.

But once he took this errand today, it would be equivalent to standing on the opposite side of King Kang in the public eye.

This is clearly to push him out as a target and as a knife.

After today, the first person Kang Wang has to deal with is Fang Huairui.

Chu Yi has always been patient, even if he didn't look at Fang Huairui, he could guess the other party's struggle at the moment.

He didn't rush, he took another white stone from the chess box leisurely, and moved it at will.

The sound of falling sons is crisp, one after another.

倦! thumping! thumping!

Unconsciously, Fang Huairui's heartbeat synchronized with Luo Zi's rhythm.

Fang Huairui's brows jumped up every time the sound of a falling sound was heard.

He clenched his fists tightly, trying to calm himself.

Now that the eldest prince is willing to let him be the supervisor, it means that as long as he is loyal to the emperor and the eldest prince, their British government will be preserved, and they will no longer be held accountable for the Yu family's treason.

If the eldest prince ascends to the position of ninety-five in the future, the British government will be his relative trust.

has the opportunity to take it to the next level.

How he should choose is obvious.

When the decision came to mind, Fang Huairui let out a long breath.

At this moment, I suddenly felt the tragic and proud grandfather's uprising with Emperor Taizu.

In troubled times, who can really stay out of it.

The same is true now.

Two tigers are fighting, how can the tigers allow them to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight!

Fang Huairui finally moved, lowered his upper body and kowtowed heavily to Chu Yi.

"The minister takes orders."

The three words    are powerful and powerful.

His forehead rested on the cold ground almost reverently, and he knelt down on the ground.

His heart was both relieved that the dust had settled, and dignified that the rain was about to come.

A burst of light laughter, like a jade bead on a plate, rippling through the air, penetrated into Fang Huairui's ears, and Fang Huairui finally felt a little relieved.

Chu Yi casually threw the piece he just picked up into the chess box, and said lightly, "Fifty years ago, Fang Ye took the tiger talisman from Emperor Taizu."

"Whether this tiger talisman can return to the British government now depends on you."

Fang Huairui heard the words, and his beard trembled violently again. He recalled what Chu Yi said earlier, "No need for suspects." This time, he completely understood.

He immediately expressed his loyalty: "I will definitely not let down the painstaking efforts of His Royal Highness the First Prince."

"Let's step back." Chu Yi said as he held the tiger talisman in his hand and cushioned it casually.

When Fang Huairui got up, her complicated eyes couldn't help but stay for a moment at the tiger talisman in Chu Yi's hand, like heartache, reluctance, and self-blame.

Then, he bowed his head and silently backed out.

After leaving Dongnuan Pavilion, Fang Huairui was already dripping with cold sweat, from the forehead to the neck to the back was all wet.

When the cold wind blew, he shivered from the cold.

He subconsciously touched the empty sleeve pocket, thinking about the tiger talisman that he just handed over for a while, and then staring back at everything that happened just now.

In fact, from the moment he handed over the tiger talisman, he had already made a choice.

The British government, which has lost military power, is destined to go downhill, and from then on it becomes an ordinary noble, famous and no power.

If Fang Huairui didn't have a trace of blood, he could enjoy the wealth and honor left by his ancestors, but if he still wanted to keep his ancestors' legacy and had ambitions to show off his grand plans, then he would have no other choice at all.

Seek wealth and danger in danger, this is the eternal truth.

Fang Huairui couldn't help but look back in the direction of Dongnuan Pavilion, wiped the cold sweat with his cuff, and sighed, convinced.

In the future, he can no longer be half-hearted, let alone watch the fire from the sidelines.

Next is a tough battle.

Since he took up this errand, then, just beheading it is not enough, he has to do it beautifully, and it can be regarded as his vote for the first prince.

After leaving the palace, Fang Huairui took a dozen or so Tianfu army personal soldiers to the Beizhen Fusi in person, and asked to see He Lie, the commander of Jinyiwei, indicating that he was appointed by the first prince to be the prisoner who executed today's execution.

He Lie had already received a message from the palace, and ordered the two people, Rusi and Shangqing, who were imprisoned in the imperial prison, to be handed over to Fang Huairui.

Thanks to his uncle, Fang Huairui visited the legendary prison for the first time in his life.

Jin Yiwei's "jail" is not something that can be locked in like a cat or a dog. Those who can be imprisoned here are either of high quality or serious enough.

In the gloomy cell, Fang Huairui thought sarcastically.

A guard in Jinyi unlocked the door of one of the cells and said with a blank expression, "Master Guo, Yu Si is inside."

The man in the cell was standing with his hands behind his back, but when he heard the movement, he turned around quickly.

"Brother-in-law!"

The head of the Yu family, Yu Si, was overjoyed when he saw the British prince, and shouted excitedly.

He has been locked in the cell for a full seven days, his hair is still meticulous and neatly combed, but his robes have become wrinkled and exudes a strange smell like pickles.

Even so, Yu Si's waist was still straight, both arrogant and embarrassed, with a kind of extreme contradiction all over his body.

"..." Fang Huairui was almost two big, and his forehead was throbbing.

As of now, he no longer expects to bring the Yu family back, let alone the family head of the Yu family.

The Yu family is like a greedy blood leech, who has been sucking the blood of the Fang family all these years.

Yusi excitedly took two steps forward, only Fang Huairui could be seen in his eyes, and he said, "Are you here to pick me up?"
