Chapter 281: Big Deal
"Yanling Mausoleum is only a hundred miles away from the imperial capital, and it is almost half under the eyes of the imperial court." Kang Yueqing said in a serious tone, "The Queen Regent, because she does not want to offend the major families and has a deep relationship with the four princes and their sons, so I care deeply for the princes who have lost their mothers and concubines.”
When Mrs. Kang heard this, she felt a little uneasy: "What the master means is..."
"For this reason, the emperor and the queen turned a blind eye and allowed the Kang family to grow in power in Yanling." Kang Yueqing said in a solemn tone, "If this time because of a little princess who does not affect the overall situation, the queen becomes angry with the Kang family. If you are dissatisfied, I am afraid that the second prince will also be implicated. "
Only then did Mrs. Kang realize the seriousness of the situation: "Then...then what should we do now?"
Kang Yueqing paced with his hands behind his back, frowning: "Have me send a fast-footed subordinate to the imperial capital overnight to invite the second prince here."
"It's too far." Mrs. Kang shook her head quickly, "She drew a blood mark on the back of Jinyi's hand. I'm afraid it will leave a scar. Will it take too long to go back and forth like this?"
"Then what do you think we should do?" Kang Yueqing turned to look at her, "If it were just the daughter of an ordinary official, I would be able to deal with it, but she is the only daughter of the queen, and she is also the daughter who has been living in the country of Mu for fourteen years. . If we really dare to touch her, even if we find a ridiculous reason, we can't avoid the queen's anger. "
Mrs. Kang's face turned pale: "Then..."
"Especially at this critical moment when we are fighting for the throne, we would be really stupid if we hold back the second prince." Kang Yueqing said, unable to help but feel a little anxious, "I never thought that a little girl could actually Become a hot problem.”
Mrs. Kang frowned and thought: "If it doesn't work, how about asking Zi Yan to come forward?"
"Huh?" Kang Yueqing turned to look at her in surprise, "Zi Yan?"
"Yes." Mrs. Kang nodded, "Ziyan's appearance is better than that of Zixu and Zihui, and his temperament is gentle and elegant. He is the most popular with his daughter's family. Let him bring a valuable gift to apologize. Maybe this little princess can disappear. gas."
Kang Yueqing was silent for a moment, feeling a little uneasy: "Can he do it?"
The second son of the Kang family, Kang Ziyan, was poisoned as a child and his knees were damaged. He was forced to use a wheelchair throughout his life.
He seems to be handsome, gentle and elegant, but in fact he is full of scheming. I don't know if it is because of his body, but he often makes people think that he is like a poisonous snake in sheep's clothing.
Even his biological father would have an indescribable feeling when he saw him occasionally, and other people in the house didn't get close to him.
Except for the servant who serves him personally, Kang Ziyan doesn't go out very much and doesn't often come into contact with others.
"Zixu was injured and Zihui fell into the hands of Yan Li. Jinyi and I have offended her, so it is even more inappropriate for me to go." Mrs. Kang gritted her teeth, "We can only let Ziyan try. "
Kang Yueqing was silent for a while, then slowly nodded: "Let Ziyan come over."
"Yes." Mrs. Kang walked out and ordered her servants to invite the second young master over.
Kang Yueqing looked at the boy who followed the order and could not help but feel worried in his heart.
Kang Ziyan is considered an outlier among the three brothers of the Kang family.
As the eldest son, Kang Zixu received all-round training from an early age. He was good at both civil and military skills, and had the skills to control people. He had a domineering and strong temperament. His biggest weakness was that he was romantic and lustful. Of course, for the head of the Kang family, being romantic was not considered a shortcoming.
Because they always think that a man can be passionate, but he cannot be infatuated or dedicated.
Therefore, Kang Zixu could be romantic and lustful, and have eighteen concubines, but he could never favor one woman for more than a year, or violate his principles and do things regardless of the overall situation because of a woman.
Kang Zixu achieved this to the extreme. He was not only romantic, but also extremely cruel. He treated women like clothes and disposed of them at will.
If a beautiful woman made him unhappy, he would give her away or die, or torture her to death. When he was interested, he would even like to drink and listen to the beauty's screams.
No one in the Kang family is afraid of him.
Kang Zihui, on the other hand, has an impulsive temper and does things regardless of the consequences.
But because he is the third son of the Kang family, even if he often offends people, looking at the entire Yanling City, there are not many people who dare to come to settle accounts. M.
Kang Ziyan has shown a different temperament from his eldest brother and younger brother since he was a child. He has a gentle temper, a welcoming smile, and the most handsome and lovable appearance. He often makes a group of maids shy.
However, after being poisoned, his legs became unable to move, and he became a little withdrawn. Although he still smiled when he saw people, he was still a little different from before.
Hearing his father's call, Kang Ziyan was quickly pushed to the main room by his personal servant: "Father, mother."
"Zi Yan." Mrs. Kang walked over and asked, "How are you today?"
"Same as usual." Kang Ziyan smiled, "Thank you for your concern, mother."
Kang Yueqing went straight to the point: "My father asked you to come here because there is something he wants you to do."
Kang Ziyan didn't even ask a question and said respectfully: "Please give me your father's instructions."
"Go to the post house. The princess who the queen has just brought back and her soldiers are staying there." Kang Yue said concisely and concisely, "There was some unhappiness between the Kang family and the princess. Your brother was impulsive and offended the princess. Now she is trapped in the inn."
Kang Ziyan was slightly surprised when he heard this: "With the power of the Kang family, can't you bring Zihui back?"
"This princess is a bit difficult to deal with." Mrs. Kang explained, "Now is not the time for head-to-head confrontation. If we completely offend her, we are worried that it will be difficult to explain in front of the Holy Emperor and the Queen in the future."
In the final analysis, it was because of fear. Fear that the Queen would be angered and the Kang family would be implicated, fear that the second prince's bid for the throne would be affected, and the Kang family's wish to become a local emperor would not be realized.
Fear that the hope of becoming king and hegemony would be shattered.
In this case, why did he have to provoke the little princess in the first place?
Kang Ziyan thought so in his heart, but his face remained calm: "Father and mother, don't worry, I will go to the post house now and try to persuade the little princess to put aside her prejudice against the Kang family."
"Well." Madam Kang patted his shoulder, "You always do things that make us feel at ease. I asked you to prepare a gift for the little princess. Take it with you, be sincere, and don't conflict with her again."
Under Madam Kang's repeated instructions, Kang Ziyan went to the post house with several guards and servants.
Halfway through the journey, he tilted his head to look at the gift covered with silk carried by eight people, and asked calmly: "Is the gift prepared by Madam the white jade screen sent by the Rong family before?"
"Yes, Second Young Master."
Kang Ziyan's mouth flashed a hint of mockery, his mother was really generous.
At his father's birthday, the white jade screen sent by the Rong family had broadened the horizons of many people, and she immediately gave it to the little princess.
It can be seen that the Kang family is indeed in a difficult situation. Continuing the stalemate will have little impact on the princess, at most she will return to the imperial capital a few days later, but the impact on the Kang family will be much greater.
