Chapter 56
Gao Tianlong's gaze was too sharp for a moment, and Gao Yang couldn't help but retreat.
He said helplessly, "Okay, that Wu Cheng deliberately provoked grandson with Song Qingqing, the daughter of the Song family. Sun Er was careless and fell for it."
"Was it careless, or willing?" Gao Tianlong snorted coldly, his eyes filled with anger and disappointment.
A dignified poisonous strategist, with a monkey-playing game in his chest, and able to quell the grain prices in Linjiang City with thunderous momentum, even Cui Xinghe, who has the talent of a top scholar, is not as good.
As a result, he fell for a bet for a woman; it's a joke if it spreads.
Gao Yang sighed in his heart; he had to bear this 'simp' label whether he liked it or not.
At that time, it was indeed the case. This was obviously a trap. Wu Cheng, the son of Prince Rong, provoked him casually, and the original owner jumped in foolishly.
And he boasted that he also had the talent of a top scholar, enough to match the name of the talented woman Song Qingqing.
Gao Tianlong looked at Gao Yang again and said indifferently, "Do you know that the Song family young lady not only publicly broke off the engagement with the Duke of Ding Prefecture, but just yesterday, she also welcomed Cui Xinghe back to Changancheng at the city gate."
Gao Yang didn't know why, but he was very calm.
Perhaps for the original owner, she was the sweetheart for whom he would be angry for beauty, but for him, this Song Qingqing was just a stranger.
"Breaking off the engagement for profit, naturally she will also approach Cui Xinghe for profit. This is very normal. If nothing goes wrong, she will come to find grandson in these few days."
"Then what do you want to do? The whole Changancheng is rumored that you are quite moved by the eldest daughter of the Song family."
Gao Tianlong picked up the hot tea and took a light sip.
Gao Yang didn't know why, but he really wanted to be cheeky.
From the first time he saw Gao Tianlong, the latter's face was always like Mount Tai collapsing in front of him without changing his expression.
So, he tentatively said, "How about marrying her back to be the mistress of the Duke of Ding Prefecture?"
But to Gao Yang's disappointment, Gao Tianlong's hand holding the teacup didn't tremble for a moment.
He just looked at the corner and said indifferently, "Do you see what this is?"
Gao Yang swept his gaze along Gao Tianlong's gaze and hesitated, "An ordinary stick."
Gao Tianlong put down the teacup, pointed to the stick in the corner, and said calmly, "Although this stick is ordinary, it only takes three sticks to break your three legs."
Damn!
Gao Yang's expression changed.
He hurriedly straightened his face and said, "Sun Er was just saying it casually. Grandfather, please don't take it seriously. I will never have any relationship with such a woman."
"And grandson will make her regret breaking off the engagement with my Duke of Ding Prefecture."
A look of satisfaction appeared on Gao Tianlong's face.
"Listening to music in brothels is fine, and singing and dancing every day is fine, but you cannot touch this Song family woman."
"Speaking of which, Prince Rong is a regent minister, with power over the court and the field. Wu Cheng dared to set you up in public. What do you plan to do?"
Gao Tianlong's gaze suddenly became sharp, as if implying something.
Gao Yang smiled lightly, "I should naturally retaliate."
"Without Prince Rong's approval, Wu Cheng would never dare to set me up like this. Among the officials who impeached me in the court, there might also be Prince Rong's shadow."
"In the end, someone doesn't want the Duke of Ding Prefecture to have overwhelming power. If grandson hadn't caught the Empress's eye, this matter would have become a knife for Prince Rong to stab Grandfather."
A look of satisfaction appeared on Gao Tianlong's face.
Gao Yang, at such a young age, could realize the methods behind this; it really surprised him.
"Whatever you want to do, just do it boldly. Always remember, the Duke of Ding Prefecture is your backing."
"I won't say much about the sense of proportion. You grasp it yourself. This Changancheng will ultimately be the court of you young people in the future!"
Hearing these words, Gao Yang felt a very strange feeling in his heart.
Perhaps it was because he was too lonely in his previous life and had to rely on himself for everything, so he was not used to the sudden care of his family.
But I have to say, this feeling is quite good.
He smiled and said, "Sun Er already has a plan in his heart."
"But this plan needs some time to lay out. Once the time is right, I will have Prince Rong's entire family executed."
Even Gao Tianlong couldn't help but feel a shock when he heard this.
In just such a short moment, he came up with a plan to have Prince Rong, who has power over the court, executed?
Is this the poisonous strategist?
"Prince Rong is not only the late emperor's brother, but also one of the three regent ministers. He has many students and former officials in the court and the army. Besides, he has the iron certificate given by the late emperor that can exempt him from death!"
"Are you sure you can have Prince Rong's entire family executed?" Gao Tianlong said with interest.
There was no fear in Gao Yang's eyes, and he remained confident, "The iron certificate can exempt him from death, which is indeed a bit troublesome, but grandson has his own methods."
A smile suddenly appeared on Gao Tianlong's wrinkled face, "Do it boldly. A teenager should look like a teenager. When you should show your edge, show it. I'm waiting to see your methods."
"Yes!"
Gao Yang bowed and retreated.
Outside the courtyard, a look of helplessness appeared on his face. Shining in the court and using thunderous means to lower grain prices in Linjiang City were actually not what he wanted.
In this ancient time, wouldn't it be happy to be a black-hearted playboy listening to music in brothels every day?
But there is a pile of messes, the Duke of Ding Prefecture is crumbling, and in the treacherous court of Da Qian, how can one stay out of it?
Forget it, it's fine to be timid in the previous life, but since he has transmigrated, he should strike hard.
After all, in this ancient time, without power, how can one live freely?
Gao Yang's eyes revealed a touch of ambition.
"Prince Rong..."
He muttered to himself, then strode toward the room.
What Gao Yang didn't know was that the moment he closed the door, Gao Tianlong's turbid eyes suddenly became clear.
Whether it was the Song family coming to break off the engagement or Prince Rong's trouble.
These were all aimed at the Duke of Ding Prefecture. It should have been him visiting them and convincing them with virtue.
If they didn't reason, he also knew a little bit of martial arts.
The old one hasn't gone into the soil yet, so how can he let the small one stand in front?
But the things that happened one after another in these ten days made Gao Tianlong unable to see through this grandson.
"Poisonous strategist?"
"I'm waiting to see your methods. If you can get rid of Prince Rong without a fight, my Duke of Ding Prefecture will flourish for another hundred years. Even if I die, I can smile in the underworld."
Gao Tianlong's old voice, filled with expectation, slowly sounded in the room.
