The Phoenix Reborn Book II

Chapter 50 Is Enough

Shang Meiliang laughed at Huang Miaoling's explanation. “What a perfect solution for the two sisters,” the woman said as she snorted mockingly. “Ironis how the two had ambitions to become a ruler, but ended up falling so deep into the pit.”

Other than Shang Meiliang who was unable to keep her emotions due to pregnancy, everyone else was silenced. No one dared to believe what they had heard.

After encouraging Emperor Weixin to take action against Li Guifei, Huang Miaoling had created a rift in the Grand Concubine's relationship with Wang Xiangqi. What was even more absurd was how Wang Zhengyi was willing to involve himself in such matters!

“You told Wang Zhengyi about Wushuang's true identity?” liang Siya asked followed by a nod to his granddaughter's head. “Tak wonder the man was willing to get rid of him.”

Yes, when he met with Yuanli the other day, Huang Miaoling had left a message to Wang Zhengyi. The contents of the message from the First Miss Huang was none other than Huang Wushuang's involvement in Li Hongxia's assassination plot. Huang Miaoling also slipped a statement regarding Huang Wushuang's blood relation and the late Li Family leader's.

Liang Siya continued saying, “You really tied the Crown Prince to your little finger.” There are a few accusations in his words.

“Grandmother is exaggerated,” said Huang Miaoling while smiling thinly. “I only used the Crown Prince's debt to me.”

Huang Jieli frowned, she did not feel Wang Zhengyi as someone who knew about how important it was to return the favor. “Wang Zhengyi know how to thank?” ketus tanyanya.

This time, Huang Liqiang spoke up, “Though Crown Prince Wang Zhengyi has a bad reputation, but he also has a good side. Just like Emperor Weixin, Wang Zhengyi always returned the favor to the people who had helped her.” He explained, That “Girl named Yuanli must have told the Crown Prince about Wushuang's involvement with Li Guifei, how they wanted to trap Miaoling with the Fourth Prince. It made the Crown Prince who felt indebted to Miaoling decide to punish Wushuang.”

At this moment, Situ Yangle scrunched her forehead. He looked at Huang Miaoling and said, “You said Empress Dowager Shen had given Huang Wushuang a sterility medicine. Then, why do you still have to force the Crown Prince to act? Can't you just wait for the results?”

It was true, Empress Dowager Shen had given Huang Wushuang a barren medicine. However, getting rid of a crown princess on the grounds of her inability to conceive took a long time. That is because the time limit given to a woman to prove her function as a wife is one year.

One year is definitely not a short time.

Originally, Huang Miaoling had no problem with waiting. After all, the slower torture provided his own satisfaction. However, after all the things she had gone through in Wu kingdom, the girl realized that Huang Wushuang's overthrow needed to be done as soon as possible. There were still many people Huang Miaoling needed to handle, like Wang Chengliu.

Therefore, Huang Miaoling decided to ignite Empress Dowager Shen's intentions. This was done by informing Empress Mingmei of Huang Wushuang's relationship with Li Hongxia.

“Why not use Wang Zhengyi to directly inform Empress Mingmei and Empress Dowager Shen?” huang Jieli asked, not knowing why her sister's way was so swirling.

Huang Miaoling fell silent at the question.

On the other hand, Liang Siya sighed. He replaced Huang Miaoling to explain.

The answer is none other because .. Huang Miaoling does not want anyone to know that the Crown Prince really respects him, maybe even think more about him. If Empress Dowager Shen or Empress Mingmei knew about Wang Zhengyi's thoughts towards Huang Miaoling, then the matter would be a runaway. This also made Huang Miaoling reduce his interaction with Wang Zhengyi.

Shang Meiliang frowned. ‘Sister Cousin Zhengyi .. have feelings towards Miaoling?’ He shook his head a little. ‘Your own fault rejected it when you were betrothed.’

Oh, if Shang Meiliang knew that Huang Miaoling was involved in the failure of his match.

“When Empress Mingmei got the information from Huang Miaoling, she would definitely pass it on to Empress Dowager Shen. Thinking that Wang Zhengyi was fully submissive under the power of Huang Wushuang's beauty, Empress Dowager Shen felt herself needing to provide a grand charade to force her granddaughter to get rid of the woman,” Huang Miaoling again explained.

This was where Yuanli's figure became an outstanding mediator.

Citing resentment and anger, Yuanli cornered Huang Wushuang. The servant tried to instill fear and despair in the woman.

After the fear was fully instilled in Huang Wushuang, Yuanli ignited the woman's madness again by telling her about Empress Dowager Shen's infertility medicine. All that Yuanli did under the orders of the Queen Mother.

And, that was the beginning of the end for Huang Wushuang, the Crown Princess.

Huang Wushuang was scared, angry, and panicked when she saw the medicine that Long Momo had brought her. He refused to drink while the Queen Mother's right hand continued to force. Finally, Huang Wushuang threw the bowl and injured Long Momo, igniting trouble with Empress Dowager Shen.

“After that, Wang Zhengyi came and finished the play according to the wishes of Empress Dowager Shen.” Huang Miaoling ended his explanation.

‘Support Wang Zhengyi,’ Huang Yade is satiated. ‘Seeing from his actions that let Huang Wushuang still bear the status of a concubine, I think Ling’er did not choose the wrong person.’

By allowing Huang Wushuang to remain a concubine, Wang Zhengyi did not completely erase his familial relationship with the Huang Family. He's pretty smart.

“However, everything is still not finished, is it?” Right now, everyone was shocked to hear Huang Junyi who had never engaged in a discussion speak up.

“What do you mean, Sixth Sister?” ask Huang Jieli.

Huang Hanrong slightly pursed his lips, disappointed that Second Big Brother did not catch their smallest brother's intent. “Junyi intends to say that all is still not over until all enemies ... are dropped.” Doubt enveloped him when he wanted to mention the word ‘mati’.

At this moment, Huang Miaoling smiled. “I find that my two little sisters have learned many things while I am not here, it is proud,” praise makes the two young men a little surprised before blushing embarrassed. Then, his gaze swept across the faces of everyone in the room. “Yes, there are still other Huang family enemies I have to get rid of for—!”

“No.”

Huang Miaoling was shocked when he heard the rejection from one direction. He turned his gaze to Huang Yade who had fallen silent earlier. “What does First Brother mean?” tanyakanya.

Huang Yade had heard the story from his grandfather and Qing Gangtie. Huang Liqiang recounted the information he had obtained from Huang Yan’an, and Qing Gangtie told Huang Yade about the information he had obtained from Emperor Weixin. Of those two people, Huang Yade realized one thing.

There's still so much to do.

“It's enough.” With his eyes closed, Huang Yade said, “It has been said before that until your wedding ceremony is over, you are not allowed to involve yourself with these issues.” The man opened his eyelids and looked at his sister. “Huang Miaoling, your marriage is in sight, and you're even confused about taking the lives of some people? Don't you feel that you are too oppressive for Young Master Liang?”

“Hah?” Huang Miaoling frowned.

The tense atmosphere that had enveloped the entire room suddenly disappeared. Everyone knitted their brows and nodded their heads in unison.

“At first, I didn't want to say this. However, since First Brother has opened this topic, I will say it.” Huang Jieli sighed. “I really feel that Young Master Liang is pathetic.”

Beside him, Shang Meiliang nodded his head. “When he was busy preparing for the wedding, his future wife was busy sharpening the sword.”

“Ah, the future daughter-in-law of the Huang Family that one is really poor.” Liang Siya touched his hands to the side of his face.

One by one the innuendos were thrown into the air. This made Huang Miaoling who was so calm a little confused.

‘What suddenly possessed these people? Why did they change the course so suddenly?!’ pekik Huang Miaoling in heart. “If it doesn't settle the enemies, how can I possibly marry quietly?!” he tried to defend himself.

Right now, Huang Liqiang's eyes were twinkling. He began, “Huang Wushuang had been deposed, Li Guifei was locked up in his yard and shunned his son. In addition, Wang Wuyu was excommunicated to Kun Lun and you left a message to the Qing Master to hinder Wang Chengliu's cooperation with the Zhou Kingdom.” The man continued, “Thus, we know clearly that whether it is Huang Wushuang, Li Guifei, Wang Wuyu, or Wang Chengliu, they will not be able to do anything anytime soon.”

Huang Miaoling raised his eyebrows, not really understanding what his grandfather's purpose was to say such a obvious thing. It was good that his enemies could not move now, it meant that there was an opportunity for him to be able to clear them up faster.

Knowing that Huang Miaoling still did not understand what Huang Liqiang wanted to convey, Liang Siya made it clear again, “That means you can postpone the problem of the country and just need to think about the thing that needs to be resolved first.”

Huang Miaoling frowned. “I don't understand,” the answer is honest. “Country problems are things that need to be prioritized at this time,”.

Hearing this, Huang Hanrong chuckled, not expecting that his third brother was so slow. “Third Brother, Grandpa and Grandma mean is .. You should focus on your wedding preparations.”
