Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm
Chapter 922 - 922 922 I Wont Touch You_1Chapter 922: Chapter 922: I Won’t Touch You_1 Chapter 922: Chapter 922: I Won’t Touch You_1 The poor Tong Tiehu had been standing for nearly two hours, and at the age of sixty, standing for so long would have been unbearable if not for the subtle support of Tong Sanlang.
When Yang Wenxiao finally awoke, he breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.
The main event was coming.
Whether Yang Wenxiao was satisfied with the answer he and Tong Sanlang had given would soon be evident.
Upon waking, Yang Wenxiao felt his entire body soft and limp, his bones felt as if they had melted away.
Yet, it wasn’t the kind of weakness that came from lack of strength, but rather the lazy comfort of someone brimming with vigor after a good sleep.
The fatigue brought on by the continuous traveling dissipated, he stretched his limbs, and looked toward Tong Tiehu and Tong Sanlang, the grandfather and grandson who were still standing respectfully by the heated kang bed.
Memories of the conversation right before he fell asleep came to his mind, he raised his eyebrows and spoke, “Gu Sheng, I do not understand what honor your father wants you to fight for just as you do not.”
“However, the gunpowder was left to me by your mother, your father also had some back then, but he was still surrounded by Fu Xuan despite having gunpowder, which I have been unable to understand for fifty years.”
Tong Tiehu “…”
Indeed, the Divine Weapon had been left by his stepmother!
To pass this thing to Yang Wenxiao instead of their brothers, it really proved they weren’t her own flesh and blood!
She trusted Yang Wenxiao too much!
If Yang Wenxiao were to turn his back on them, say, by insisting that the Tong Family was planning a rebellion as he was doing now, then the Tong Family would be like fish on a chopping board, left completely at others’ mercy!
She should at least have left them something for self-defense!
A stepmother is a stepmother!
While Tong Tiehu was filled with grief and indignation, Yang Wenxiao spoke again, “In fact, even if you were planning a rebellion, you wouldn’t be able to. As you said, your mother left nothing but a secret tunnel and a treasure, which is now nowhere to be found. With only a secret tunnel, you cannot stage a rebellion.”
“Your Majesty is clear-sighted; my Tong Family neither has the power nor the ambition to rebel. My sixth brother and I just wish to live out our remaining years in peace, surrounded by a flourishing family,” Tong Tiehu quickly said.
“It’s settled, no need to be so terrified, you’re an old man now. I promised your mother I wouldn’t harm you brothers,” Yang Wenxiao said as he stood up. He stepped down from the heated kang, his hands clasped behind his back, his spine straight.
He took in the layout of the room and then headed towards the door.
He opened the door, and a gust of cold wind blew in, making his somewhat softened body instantly regain the vigor of everyday life.
Outside the door, Yang Hao, Qiao Xiaomai, and Gao Lian waited.
It didn’t take much time to prepare Yang Wenxiao’s room, and everything was done by the palace maids. They just had to give a few verbal instructions.
After arranging the room, the three returned to the courtyard where the guards resided.
Fan Linong’s room door was still closed, with no sign of movement from Yang Wenxiao, Tong Sanlang, and Tong Tiehu inside. With nothing to do, they could only stand outside and wait.
They waited for a good half an hour.
“Grandpa Emperor,” seeing Yang Wenxiao come out, Yang Hao hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
Yang Wenxiao looked up at the sky and inquired, “Is it past midday now?”
“Yes, the room is all set up, and lunch is ready too, just waiting for Grandpa Emperor to come over,” reported Yang Hao.
“No need for now, let’s take a walk around the manor first,” said Yang Wenxiao.
Upon hearing that, Yang Hao hesitated, “This…”
“Isn’t that a bit dangerous?” said Yang Hao.
Even as the crown prince, Yang Hao didn’t know where the gunpowder was hidden.
