Chapter 848: Giving Respect to the Huo Family
While the King of Wei was making plans, he was also "shaking hands and making peace" with Jiang Huaili. It was not because he was concerned about what would happen to the King of Wei without Jiang Huaili, but about the Jiang family behind Jiang Huaili.
Although the Jiang brothers secretly have their own supporters, the former crown prince is dead, Emperor Suwen has secretly purged many people, and the King of Qi is also dead. Now they are afraid that they can only unite as one and get closer to him.
Because of his relationship with the old Minister Jiang, Jiang Huaili became the weather vane of the Jiang family, and many people who were on good terms with the Jiang family would also weigh the pros and cons.
After what happened to his son, the King of Wei finally came to his senses. Compared to his previous reckless and brainless actions, his IQ is finally up to par.
The King of Wei, who had originally planned to remain low-key and dormant, was suddenly summoned by Emperor Suwen.
The King of Wei was still a little uncomfortable after not leaving his palace for a few days. Looking at the bustling streets, he smiled and got into the carriage.
In the imperial study, Emperor Suwen finished reviewing a thick stack of memorials, put down his red brush, drank tea and rested. When he heard that the King of Wei had arrived, he did not even raise his eyelids.
He did not think highly of the son of King Wei.
But even if you don't take it seriously, he still has his value and can give you little surprises from time to time.
"My son, I would like to send my regards to my father."
"Get up."
Emperor Suwen's voice was calm, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry. He then got straight to the point and asked, "Did the Huo family find out the cause of Huo Yuanpei's death?"
Speaking of Huo Yuanpei, King Wei also felt a little emotional.
The eldest son of the Huo family is extremely talented. Although he is not the future heir to the Huo family, he is definitely a leader among the younger generation and enjoys great success.
But such a person suddenly disappeared.
There were some gossips circulating at the time, but the Huo family said they were all rumors, and the King of Wei, a grown man, didn't like to hear these, so he didn't pay attention to them.
But recently he heard that the Huo family had discovered that there were some strange things about Huo Yuanpei's death. When he entered the palace not long ago, he mentioned the Huo family.
As a result, Emperor Suwen also knew him.
What King Wei did not expect was that his father seemed to be very concerned about Huo Yuanpei's death, and later sent him a message asking him to pay more attention to the Huo family.
Today, he was summoned into the palace for questioning.
The King of Wei couldn't guess the reason, but since he had the opportunity to meet the emperor, he naturally treated it with caution and answered carefully. He didn't want to be beaten again.
"Replying to Father, it is said that he was murdered, and there were witnesses who returned to the capital that year."
Emperor Suwen's heart tightened: "Really?"
The King of Wei shook his head again: "Huo Yuanpei has been dead for nearly twenty years. I don't know what the Huo family is doing. They may not believe it themselves, whether it is true or not."
In other words, everything could be fake.
"Kneel down."
Suddenly, King Wei’s brain crashed. What does this mean?
He looked in surprise at his father who did not express any reaction behind the dragon table, only to see that he had put down the tea bowl and picked up the imperial brush again.
Is this over?
"Your Majesty, please."
Eunuch De tried his best to smile in a friendly manner, his voice was shrill yet soft.
The King of Wei's expression almost collapsed, but he finally held back. After kneeling and paying his respects, he reluctantly retreated.
Emperor Suwen did not give any instructions, but continued to review the documents, recalling the scene by the moat that day in his mind.
That elegant and graceful young man, knowing that he was the emperor, still looked straight at her and made an impassioned speech. His words were not disrespectful, but every word revealed that she had stolen his lover.
How could I allow such a bold and reckless person to live?
Letting him "jump into the river" is already giving dignity to the Huo family!
