C139 (1/2)

The three of them used the Sujin Temple and only sat for a little while before they left the Spirit Origin Temple.

Back in the manor, Hua Yuan first went to Yuan's house. These days, Hua Shihao was basically staying in the rooms of the two ladies. Hua Yuan had not seen her father for a long time.

In March, something important happened in the court — the border was not stable right now, but the crown prince had accidentally injured the only son of the great general, Chen Xiannan, while he was in the capital, making love to a prostitute.

This action infuriated the Emperor, and the Empress and the Crown Prince fell into a state of panic. Looking at the emperor's expression, it was obvious that he was thinking of crippling the crown prince.

Hua Yuan often played with Luo Meng and Du Qiao on this matter, so she had heard Du Qiao mention it before. However, there was something wrong about this matter.

Because in her previous life, Hua Yuan had never heard of such a thing. However, she couldn't tell where the problem was.

Perhaps, it was because of his rebirth that something went wrong? However, after some thought, Hua Yuan still hadn't realized that he had done something so important that it had changed him so drastically.

It wasn't like there weren't any.

At this time in his previous life, his grandfather had already put on his disguise and stayed at the border for four years. When he returned four years later, he was framed, and all he could do was end up with the family's loyalty and death.

At the moment, there was no movement from his grandfather's side. In the imperial court, there was a constant flow of energy. Perhaps a small change could cause some important changes. Perhaps this was a change that he made himself. Because she had a deep impression of certain things in her past life, Hua Yuan would remind her uncles to not get involved in those things every time she went to the Duke of Ling's estate.

Hua Yuan pondered. In terms of big matters, there was only one such item.

Now that the Crown Prince was in a weaker position, the Fourth Prince was watching him like he was some kind of tiger. As the Prime Minister, Hua Shihao needed to be more careful. Politics would always change in the blink of an eye. If one was not careful, it was possible that one would be smashed to smithereens and be unable to recover from it.

Of course, Hua Shihao had a good sense of politics in being able to hold the position of Prime Minister. It was just that he had held a high position for so many years that his mind had become somewhat dull. Sometimes, it even seemed like he was in a hurry to make progress. But now that the imperial court was so nervous, how could he not see the twists and turns?

As a result, even Hua Shihao, who was usually out of tune, became more obedient in recent days.

On the first day of April, for the first time ever, he even entered the Yuan family's residence. He probably didn't want the censors to impeach his concubine and destroy his wife.

Speaking of pampering his concubine and destroying his wife, Hua Shihao felt that he had to cry for injustice. How was this what he wanted to do when he doted on his concubine? It was obvious that the Yuan clan did not even allow him to enter the house, so what could he do?

After entering the Yuan family's residence, he saw that the Yuan family looked as if he hadn't seen them in years. A few days ago when he looked in the mirror, Hua Shihao was still lamenting about how much older he had gotten and the fine lines at the corner of his eyes. But now, when he looked at the Yuan clan, he realized that she was still the same as she was ten years ago.

His heart suddenly heated up. He suddenly walked forward and held the Yuan clan's hand. Suddenly, he secretly resented himself.

Why did he ignore such a beautiful wife for so long?

This is how a man is like. After spending so much time with a skinny horse like Yingge and Yanwu, he suddenly became more and more enchanting when he saw a girl from a noble family like the Yuan family.

At this moment, the methods that Skinny Horse used to please him also became unbearable.

The Yuan clan took a step back and said, ”If the Lord Prime Minister wants to come, why didn't he ask someone to come and inform him in advance? I'll be ready as well. ”

When Hua Shihao heard this, he felt uncomfortable.

Looking at the date, he hadn't been to the Yuan family's residence for two to three months.

For some reason, Hua Shihao, who had always thought that he had done nothing wrong, now felt guilty. Seeing the Yuan clan retreat, he assumed that she had acted in such a manner because he had not come to visit her for a long time and felt wronged in his heart.

”It's my fault that I haven't come to see you for so long.”

Yuan Shi smiled and said, ”Don't say it like that, Master. You are too busy with political affairs and are already tired. Naturally, I can't drag you down.”
