"Haha, because the people who rescued me from the mass grave back then were Concubine Wan's people." Peng Ying was laughing so hard that tears came out of his eyes.
"Prince Xiu is so favored by the emperor, so naturally Concubine Wan has noticed you a long time ago. At that time, Concubine Wan planned to start with Wen Tian and train Wen Tian to become his master. It was a pity that Concubine Wan underestimated Wen Tian. After the first test, I found that Wen Tian is very loyal to his master and there is no way to start."
However, Wen Tian couldn't do it, but Concubine Wan had already found out the details of Wen Tian. Naturally, he knew about Peng Ying's existence.
We also know from Peng Ying's daily behavior that Peng Ying is an ambitious person. Although it was not obvious at the time, Concubine Wan could still see it.
But at that time, Peng Ying was taken to Yufeng Hall, and Concubine Wan could not find any trace of him at all.
It wasn't until Peng Ying stole the martial arts secret book and was hunted down that his whereabouts were gradually revealed.
It was no coincidence that Peng Ying was rescued from the mass grave, so his life was saved as soon as possible.
"Your Majesty must have never imagined that Concubine Wan actually arranged for me to meet Wen Tian on the street. Even I didn't know about this at the time. Later, I followed the Prince into the palace and met Concubine Wan, and then I understood it. Your Majesty Do you really think that I will be fine as long as I keep a low profile in the palace? Concubine Meng will not let anyone around the prince go, let alone someone with unknown origins like me."
"At that time, Concubine Wan was naturally there to help. It's a pity that the prince was young at that time and could not understand the intricate relationship. If things had changed to now, the prince would have become suspicious a long time ago."
Ye Xiudu slowly closed his eyes. At that time, he indeed had no doubt at all.
Because he trusted Wen Tian, he naturally had no doubts about this cousin who was very good to Wen Tian.
With a crisp "pop" sound, Yu Qingluo suddenly turned her head and saw Wen Tian kneeling on the ground.
Yu Qingluo couldn't help but tremble when he heard it, Wen Tian, I managed to save your legs, you have to take good care of them. If she becomes lame in the future, won’t Hongye cry to death
"My lord, it's my subordinate's fault. If my subordinates hadn't been so soft-hearted and had to keep Peng Ying, I wouldn't have..."
"You should get up first. This matter has nothing to do with you. I am not a person who does not distinguish right from wrong and is jointly and severally responsible." Ye Xiu asked Mo Xian to help him up, and then looked at Peng Ying, "You help Concubine Wan?" , because she was kind to you. Then why did she help Concubine Meng later?"
"Hahahahaha." Upon hearing this question, Peng Ying suddenly became excited and laughed, even his body was trembling slightly.
He stared at Ye Xiudu with a bright light in his eyes, "Because I want power, I want to be a master. When I was in exile, I was bullied and beaten by the officers and soldiers. After I escaped, I was bullied and beaten by the squires. I was bullied by bullies, and during those days, I was worse than a pig or a dog. I have had enough of this kind of life, and I want to trample all these people under my feet."
"Hahaha, prince, you are a prince, but you are just a prince, let alone me? Originally, the emperor chose you, and as long as you inherit the throne, I will naturally follow suit. But I didn't expect that the prince would not be interested in that position at all. Interested, then what is the point of following you? I will always be just a guard, and I will always be just a guard who is called by those in power and officials to come and go. "
"Not to mention those princes and officials, even the dogs around the princes can bark at me, but I can't kill them. I don't want to live such a frustrating life anymore."
"Concubine Meng promised me that as long as I help the Seventh Prince, my future will be limitless. I will be a very popular minister in the future. I have the power to follow the dragon. I can make those who once looked down on me prisoners and make them treat me." Bow down and bow your head. Among them... maybe you, the prince, are included. Hahahahahaha."
Yu Qingluo felt that Peng Ying was simply crazy. He had such thoughts. What a whimsical idea.
She shook her head and couldn't help but say, "Do you believe in Concubine Meng that much? You don't know what kind of person Meng Guifei is? Do you think you won't be killed after the Seventh Prince registers in the future?"
Peng Ying's laughter stopped, and he suddenly fell into a trance, his head hanging slightly.
It took a long time before I heard his low voice. This time, it even contained a hint of weakness and sadness. I don't know if it was because of Yu Qingluo's words that hit home.
"Of course I didn't believe it at first... I also thought about it. In fact, life is not bad now. Although I don't have an extremely popular minister or supreme power, most people don't dare to look down on the guards around the prince. Besides, in these years, The prince treats me well, and is even willing to spend half of his wealth for me. If I am in danger, the prince will rescue me at all costs, just like Shen Ying was captured by Concubine Meng. Although he will suffer a little, But the prince still brought the man back and even treated him better than before."
"So, I thought that since Concubine Wan is finished, then I will have no owner, so I can just follow the prince."
"But...but...in the heart of the prince, he is still very partial." Peng Ying said, suddenly raising his head and glaring at Ye Xiudu fiercely.
Ye Xiudu frowned, "Partiality?"
"Yes, it's obvious that I fell in love with Hong Ye first, it's obvious that I confessed to her first, and it's obvious that I can give her happiness. As long as she is willing, I can give up all my ambitions for her. But what about the prince? Why do you still want Hong Ye? To take care of Wen Tian? Why did the prince not have the slightest intention to break off his relationship with Wen Tian? Didn’t the prince know that I was interested in Hongye? Why did the prince turn a blind eye, and even push me a little bit, and give them more? Given the opportunity to get along with each other, hasn’t the prince thought about my feelings?”
"Peng Ying, your idea is too extreme and unreasonable." Mo Xian frowned and scolded.
Where can the prince stop emotional matters? If Peng Ying had the ability, he would just win back Hongye's heart. Why should he put all the blame on the prince
"Peng Ying, I didn't know you had been interested in Hongye for a long time..." Wen Tian frowned and wanted to say something, but felt that whatever he said would be dejected. He was sincere to Hongye. Even if he had known that Peng Ying had thoughts about Hongye, would he have given up
He once thought about giving up, but it was because his legs were injured and he was afraid of hurting Hongye, but he never thought about giving up on her because of other men.
