Chapter 315.2: Even Crueler Truth?
Towards this kind of person, Jing Wan had no comnt, can only say, a pitiful person certainly will have hateful points.
Li Hong Yuan went to go et with Min Yu Han. Compared with last year, his entire person appeared not that dejected anymore, especially on the outside. After going through ticulous polishing, in addition to finally finding a path, having the montum to continue living, nursing his health for nearly a year, he grew so at, able to hold up his clothes again, and that bearing that belonged to the descendants of large influential families manifested on the surface. Even if past middle age, it still didn’t reduce his outstanding good looks, just having experienced the great changes of a thousand sails. This kind of great change, to use another phrase to co describe, that was just becoming wise and farsighted.
This kind of person can easily beco soone that neither showed nor expressed their emotions, because his heart was already dead, but when necessary, he also can be a first class actor.
“Greetings wangye.” Min Yu Han, on the surface, calmly greeted Li Hong Yuan, just his line of sight was always lowered, not looking directly at Li Hong Yuan. It can be seen, his heart really wasn’t that calm.
Li Hong Yuan nonchalantly sat in the main seat, “For what have you co to et this prince for?” There wasn’t the slightest bit of politeness.
“The matter this ti in Jiangnan hold significant concerns, the implications very wide, not just involving the official circle, but also a power struggle between the various large influential families. Although knowing that wangye is of great talent, having big plans, holding the pearl of wisdom, but towards Jiangnan, still not particularly familiar with after all, so will inevitably overlook so things. And there are also people harboring devious sches. This commoner would be so bold as to make the decision on one’s own, wishing to contribute one’s humble effort for wangye, just don’t know what arrangents wangye has, not daring to act blindly without thinking, so as to avoid beating the grass and startling the snake, causing trouble instead of helping. Thus, this commoner just sorted out every influential family’s relation with the various people of the official circle, hoping to be able to have so use towards wangye.”
As he finished speaking, Min Yu Han presented up a small booklet.
Li Hong Yuan didn’t refuse either, letting Mu An receive the booklet, casually flipping through, but after reading two three pages, Li Hong Yuan’s expression slightly turned solemn, having the booklet looked through all the way to the end, holding by his hand. “Sowhat useful.”
Li Hong Yuan although had people planted in Jiangnan, there were still limitations after all. In so areas, it wasn’t that convenient to make a move, for instance, large influential families’ interior. The closer the person was to the core, the harder it was to arrange a spy. The people by those people’s side generally have been following them since childhood and were house-born servants, the level of loyalty very high, so regardless whether it was bribing or switching the person, the difficulty was all very high. However, Min Yu Han was different. He was a di descendant of the Min clan’s main family, deeply valued to begin with, and because of misfortune arising, thus got marginalized by the family clan. Now that he has returned to the family, even if the clan is still indifferent towards him, they still can’t deny his talent. So things, without needing to voluntarily go do, there will still be people voluntarily approaching. He perhaps can say a few words, and because usually drawing blood on the first prick, towards him, the family clan naturally just increasingly relied on heavily. Him wanting to know a bit of sothing, whilst also not touching upon the family clan’s interest, naturally won’t attract attention.
These things, within the interiors of the large influential families, perhaps weren’t anything important, but to the people outside, it was very difficult to find out about.
Upon hearing, Min Yu Han slightly sighed in relief, “To be able to be of so use to wangye, naturally can’t be better.”
Truthfully speaking, Li Hong Yuan ‘eting with mishap’, his worry and fretfulness wasn’t any less than anyone’s, just he very quickly discovered, things perhaps weren’t the sa as he’d thought. Because of that trace of clue, he cald down, carefully looking into. In addition to so deductions, he already had the matter mostly figured out.
Even if knowing that Li Hong Yuan didn’t really et with danger, Min Yu Han’s mood still didn’t have the slightest improvent, even becoming more gloomy.
All these years, he had always been muddleheaded, and didn’t think carefully. After waking up, he had the matters in the past carefully combed through, increasingly feeling that sothing wasn’t right. So things really weren’t as simple as how they appeared on the surface. In this nearly a year’s ti, while simultaneously helping Li Hong Yuan do so things in secret, he carefully investigated little by little. The heavens do not betray a resolute person, he ultimately found so useful things.
And just that tiny bit that floated onto the surface already made him have the Pei clan leader hated to the bone.
That year, Le Cheng Emperor who was still a qinwang at the ti had traveled south, having a chance encounter with the Pei clan daughter, falling in love at first sight. And at that ti, it was precisely the ti when the current Pei clan leader was fighting with his brothers over the position of clan leader. That kind of battle was completely on par with the imperial court’s battle for the throne, just the scope involved wasn’t that big.
The current Pei clan leader’s brothers just clung on to this matter not letting go, saying that not only having involvent with the imperial family violated against the ancestral teachings, but the Pei clan main family’s di daughter becoming a concubine practically just made the entire family clan lose all face, and the current Pei clan leader, out of love for his daughter, even did so untily things. But in the end, he chose the family clan and abandoned the self, not only letting his youngest di daughter ‘die suddenly’, he even heartlessly had the person crossed out from the ancestral records, and for this reason, was even very depressed for a period of ti.
However, Min Yu Han discovered, this matter, in a certain sense, instead secured his unwavering place as the successor.
Min Yu Han also learned about the current Pei clan leader’s character from many sides, and the more he learned, the more fearful he beca, and at the sa ti, also just increasingly detested.
He, as the Pei clan’s clan leader, living for the sake of the entire family clan’s interest, perhaps can’t be criticized, but he was also cold-blooded and cold-hearted, completely lacking human warmth, his ans ruthless. As long as he believes it’s worth it, even if a torrent of offenses, he still won’t bat an eye, and as long as he believes it’s worth it, his close family can also be abandoned, and even sche against in all kinds of ways. In his eyes, there was probably just useful people, and useless people. The forr can be doted on in all kinds of ways, cupped into the heavens, while the latter, under normal circumstances, was completely disregarded, and if accidentally running before him, that was just unhesitantly getting stepped into the mud.
Because of this further understanding, he didn’t believe the matter that year was just a coincidence, and that Guan Guan just happened to encounter by chance. After further investigating, although he didn’t obtain definite proof, but according to his guesses, Guan Guan getting seen by Le Cheng Emperor, perhaps simply wasn’t an accident, but rather sched by soone. And this person was very possibly the Pei clan leader, that old thing.
Min Yu Han once again beca a trapped beast, just a tiny bit, just a tiny bit, that’s all.
He previously couldn’t figure out the Pei clan leader’s reason for doing this, all the way until he learned that the Pei clan has been paying attention to Jin Qinwang all these years, all the way until realizing that it was probably that old thing that ‘kidnapped’ Jin Qinwang, and as if enlightened with perfect wisdom, he thought of a possibility. All the calculations perhaps were just for the sake of one thing, an imperial prince, an imperial prince possessing the Pei clan’s blood. As long as one appropriately handles, the Pei clan entering the imperial court again was just a matter of pushing along the currents.
Although just guesses, but after contemplating over and over, this possibility was very big. Moreover, he completely didn’t have reason to make excuses for that old thing, so just determined as true, and towards that old thing, he can be said to hate to the bone. Especially whenever the other party would put on a fake look, continuously groaning in pain towards him, saying that the Pei clan was sorry to him, he hated that he couldn’t drink his blood and devour his flesh. However, what further shocked him was that despite his hatred overflowing the heavens, he was still able to not reveal in the slightest, feigning civility with him.
Just, this plan couldn’t keep up with the changes. No one ever expected that because of him, the extrely jealous Le Cheng Emperor would actually under towering rage kill Guan Guan, even causing Guan Guan’s only son to be born as a ghost child. Even if Le Cheng Emperor was good to this son in every possible way, he didn’t give him any power. And probably because of this, the Pei clan thus didn’t co looking earlier.
Right now, that old thing finally extended his hand towards Jin Qinwang, so how can he tolerate!
“Wangye, the Pei clan harbor ill intentions, especially the Pei clan leader, that old thing, for the sake of achieving his goals, completely unscrupulous, hoping wangye can be careful.”
“For that old thing’s actions to all be found out by even you, looks like it wasn’t that secretive either.” Li Hong Yuan nonchalantly said. It wasn’t contemptuous, just feeling it further surpassed contempt.
T/N: Honestly any ‘truth’ involving the current Pei clan leader won’t be anything good lol. In a way, his plan was really a two birds with one stone plan, minus the fact that LHY beca a ghost child.
