Extra Story: Palace Fighting Strategy (2)
The woman has a very knowledgeable experience, and every word she says can make people feel vaguely moved. Even Lin Yingkong, who was forced to get involved, felt that if he looked at it from Feng Rong's current perspective, wouldn't it be a chance to try this way?
Feng Rong was not silent for long, and said with a brush, "Don't mention this matter anymore. I will think about what to do. You go back first, don't let someone catch you."
The woman wanted to persuade her again, but when Feng Rong looked tired, she had to leave first, leaving him alone on the chair in the cold palace, stunned and dazed. In the imperial garden a few miles away, there was a merry and joy at the imperial banquet, which was a place where the heavenly family enjoyed each other.
The cold palace was so deserted and too quiet that when Lin Yingkong turned over and jumped off the beam, Feng Rong stood up in shock. He looked at Lin Yingkong in surprise. There was a panic between his eyebrows, which was completely different from being mature and extreme in front of the woman. "You, why are you here..."
"The Empress Dowager is not feeling well, I'll come to the palace to accompany her," Lin Yingkong walked to the table and placed the food he brought on the table. After a moment of silence, he said, "Here I'll accompany you."
Feng Rong looked at the things on the table in a daze. Even after half a year of recuperation, this thin child had only grown a little flesh. But at this time his face was pale and he stood in a blank hall, as if he would fall down when the wind blew. He asked in a weak voice: "Have you heard it?"
Lin Yingkong blinked, "Yeah." He thought about it again and said, "I didn't expect you to be... Empress Xiaomin passed away ten years ago. I should have guessed that the identity of the child in the palace would not be so simple... Your Highness."
"Don't call me that!" Feng Rong retorted angrily, and then realized that this was the first time he spoke ill of Lin Yingkong, and his attitude suddenly became frightened, "No, I mean..."
"I understand what you mean," Lin Yingkong raised his hand and interrupted his explanation, his tone was calm, "I just want to know one thing - is it because of the desire to be a prince of the court, or is it the wish of Ah-ai?"
Feng Rong stared at him for a while, shook his head and said, "I only know that you are Lin Yingkong." He is not the youngest son of Prime Minister Lin, nor the grandson of the Empress Dowager of the current dynasty.
The big stone in Lin Ying's hollow mouth suddenly loosened. He didn't know why he cared about the other party's answer so much, but it was undeniable that this answer did make him feel relaxed. Finally, he had time to connect the matter of Feng Rong and filter it.
In fact, the empress who is now a founding dynasty is not the emperor's first wife, but Empress Xiaomin who had passed away ten years ago. As mentioned earlier, the emperor was only the empress dowager, and naturally he had to rely on the power of the foreign family when fighting for the throne. At that time, the most prominent family of military generals was the An family, the hereditary marquis. The emperor married the daughter of the An family, won over most of the military officers of the imperial court, defeated a group of princes, and forced the former emperor to make him the crown prince. But when he firmly took up the throne, he began to worry that the An family would be very good at shaking the master, and he was determined to cleanse the court, so he directly gave the An family a fiefdom that leaned against the frontier, and to redeem the family.
All the old and young moved there. When the men of the An family defended the country and fought against the enemy, they used tricks to provoke the struggle between several factions in the military camp, causing them to be wiped out because there were no reinforcements when they went to war. They even allowed the enemy country to occupy the city and sent people to kill all the families of the An family. The emperor exchanged a city for his own selfishness, and said to the outside world that the enemy country was angry that the An family was brave and good at fighting, so he simply slaughtered their generals to avenge. It was a pity that the An family was a loyal and wise man for generations, but in the end, the emperor was slaughtered by the emperor with supreme glory, and was killed by the emperor with unknown meaning. Even the bones were left on the lost land and could not return to their roots.
At that time, Empress Xiaomin was eight months pregnant. She thought that this child could let the emperor take care of her parents' family, but she didn't expect that she would wait for the news of the destruction of the Dan family. She was heartbroken and moved to the fetal aura. But after all, she was the legitimate daughter of the sect. The premature child had just given birth and had not even cut the umbilical cord. Empress Xiaomin forced herself to pick up a dagger, and looked crazy and chased the emperor who was waiting outside the hall to give birth to a child, asking him to pay his blood debt. The emperor was also very guilty, and was annoyed by Empress Xiaomin's curse, so she came without stopping.
The roots were eradicated, and the people strangled Empress Xiaomin to death. The nanny who delivered the baby also strangled the newborn child. The insiders were banned. The outsiders only knew that Empress Xiaomin gave birth to a stillbirth, and was shocked by the news that the An family was destroyed. They couldn't help but hang themselves. Fortunately, the remaining disciples of the An family were loyal and used a trick to exchange for the prince to steal the little prince. However, the situation was too bad at that time. They had to keep him in the cold palace. They raised him for ten years and disappeared, until this child named Ah Lai met Lin Yingkong.
The emperor's rise to power was a bit unreasonable, and no one said that he succeeded by women, so he hated the forces that had extended a helping hand to him back then. The rest of the Dark Family was chased and killed, and it was too late to take care of Feng Rong. He could only manage forces outside, but he wanted to take Feng Rong out of the palace one day and make plans. But he didn't expect that the youngest son of the Lin family would come to take care of their little master.
He also took on the task of teaching and educating people. Seeing Feng Rong, who was timid because no one was teaching, grew up day by day, the fire of revenge among the members of the Ancient Family also rekindled. Feng Rong learned some martial arts and became bolder. When he went out just now, he ran into a group of emperors under the knees of the princess Chenghuan. He was so angry that he wanted to poison the emperor's food. He was discovered in time by the Ancient Family and brought it back, which led to the scene of the woman's persuasion.
Feng Rong took the initiative to listen to these things. Although the situation in the Dark Family did not reveal the current situation, Lin Yingkong was already moved. The trust of the royal family was not only measured by a thousand gold, let alone Ah Lai, who had suffered from loneliness since childhood? However, in addition to being surprised and moved, he had a little bit of heart-wrenching pain in his heart... It was indescribable, vaguely, heart-wrenching care. At this time, he was still young and didn't understand what this meant.
"Do you want to be the emperor?" Lin Yingkong asked this question of being rebellious.
Feng Rong was silent for a moment and nodded, "The bloody hatred of the entire family of the Dan family is pressing on me, and I can't ignore it."
Lin Yingkong stared at him, "What I asked is, do you want to be an emperor?" He reread one of the sounds.
Feng Rong seemed to be asking about the pain in his heart, and his eyelids could not bear it. When he opened it again, the hatred in his eyes poured out like water. His childish cheek that had not yet escaped was a little more ferocious. "I want!" He wanted to take the position of the dog emperor! He wanted him to watch the descendants of the Dan family ascend the throne, and his lifelong management efforts were burned! He wanted him to bury more than 100 unjust souls of the Dan family, and he could not even die with his eyes closed!
Lin Yingkong looked at the boy who had gone from powerless orphan to the most noble prince of the dynasty who no one knew. Looking at the overwhelming hatred in his eyes, he slowly said: "I understand...but I won't agree to you who brought the Lin family into it."
"I won't." Feng Rong's emotions slowly calmed down and he promised heavily that he believed that Lin Yingkong would not reveal his identity and existence, but maybe... he would not come again after today.
Lin Yingkong reached out and touched his head, as intimate as the past. He smiled, and the gentle meaning between his eyebrows did not change at all, "But I am the same. Whether you are the prince or not, I only know that you are Ah Biao."
Feng Rong was stunned for a moment and suddenly smiled with relief.
After Feng Rong's identity was exposed, the relationship between the two seemed to be no different, but as the fourth prince, Lin Yingkong, who was a companion to study the fourth prince, learned some things from the Taifu's Palace of Kings, and would teach him in a blink of an eye. Feng Rong also studied literature and martial arts more desperately than before. Sometimes Lin Yingkong would also analyze the situation in the palace with him. For example, the emperor's nominal eldest son is said to be domineering in fate and is born unknown, so he is not valued. The status of Concubine Liu's family is not low. The second prince she gave birth to is very scheming and quite cunning. Concubine Xiang is from a low-born background. The two princes under her knees are weak. However, the emperor's favorite is the fourth prince left by the queen. This child looks the most like him and inherits his cruelty...
In fact, Lin Yingkong once asked Feng Rong and asked him how confident he was. Feng Rong just said: "If you don't succeed, you will be successful."
But in his eyes, there was only despair that was defeated by the death. It seemed that they had already determined that there was no possibility of victory in their success. Lin Yingkong could not say why, and he said angrily: "Don't say anything nonsense!"
Feng Rong was startled and admitted her mistake in a low voice for a long time. Since then, she has stopped discussing these matters in front of him.
Feng Rong and Lin Yingkong gathered in the cold palace every now and then, but the court became turbulent because of the emperor's becoming more and more stupid. The Lin family gradually became a thorn in the emperor's side. All of this was hidden under their peaceful relationships that deliberately avoided these topics. Three years later, Feng Rong had grown into a heroic young man, and his demeanor was quite similar to the descendants of the Dark Family back then. Paper could not contain the fire, and the Dark Family's plan for revenge began to start. So when Lin Yingkong was not in the palace, Feng Rong's identity was discovered by people from the royal family and directly invited him to the emperor.
There were not many people who knew the secret of the An family back then, and there were also many elderly people who were paying attention to the outstanding achievements of the An family in the court. The emperor loved face, so he naturally made many appearances of mourning his first wife and heartbroken eldest son in front of outsiders. Therefore, everyone felt that finding the eldest prince who died prematurely would make the emperor happy. When Feng Rong pretended to be confused and ignorant, he looked at the other party's distorted expression of shock, anger and panic in his eyes because he deliberately pretended to be happy. How could he describe the word "happiness" in his heart!
Feng Rong's identity is real. No matter how much the emperor doubts, he can't make a false statement. He can only blame the blame on the harem unwillingly. It is said that a concubine at that time was jealous of the queen and replaced the eldest prince with a stillbirth. So the harem went through a bloody cleaning. The emperor was depressed and could not kill Feng Rong and slapped him in the face. He did not allow Feng Rong to know nothing about what happened back then. Just as he was thinking about what kind of honor this son would threaten him to give him, he suddenly attacked the border. Feng Rong actually asked to go out to fight on the ground that he wanted to take back the lost land of the An family and welcome the bones of the mother clan.
He was moved every word of the word. He still remembered that the honorary ministers of the Dark Family were touched, and the emperor had no chance to kill him. The fierce war was nothing, so he couldn't wait to give him a general, representing the royal family, and even gave tens of thousands of soldiers and horses readily - how could he believe that a thirteen-year-old boy could win a battle?
When Lin Yingkong received the news, Feng Rong had already finished his troops and left the city. He rushed to the city gate and could only see the army's tail disappearing on the man's official road from afar. Feng Rong's plan was not revealed to him at all. He could not say whether he was angry, worried or disappointed, and he didn't even notice that the reins had broken the palm of his palm.
