<h4>Chapter 315.2: Even Crueler Truth?</h4>


    Towards this kind of person, Jing Wan had noment, can only say, a pitiful person certainly will have hateful points.


    Li Hong Yuan went to go meet with Min Yu Han. Compared withst year, his entire person appeared not that dejected anymore, especially on the outside. After going through meticulous polishing, in addition to finally finding a path, having the momentum to continue living, nursing his health for nearly a year, he grew some meat, able to hold up his clothes again, and that bearing that belonged to the descendants ofrge influential families manifested on the surface. Even if past middle age, it still didn’t reduce his outstanding good looks, just having experienced the great changes of a thousand sails. This kind of great change, to use another phrase toe describe, that was just bing wise and farsighted.


    This kind of person can easily be someone that neither showed nor expressed their emotions, because his heart was already dead, but when necessary, he also can be a first ss actor.


    “Greetings wangye.” Min Yu Han, on the surface, calmly greeted Li Hong Yuan, just his line of sight was always lowered, not looking directly at Li Hong Yuan. It can be seen, his heart really wasn’t that calm.


    Li Hong Yuan nonchntly sat in the main seat, “For what have youe to meet this prince for?” There wasn’t the slightest bit of politeness.


    “The matter this time in Jiangnan hold significant concerns, the implications very wide, not just involving the official circle, but also a power struggle between the variousrge influential families. Although knowing that wangye is of great talent, having big ns, holding the pearl of wisdom, but towards Jiangnan, still not particrly familiar with after all, so will inevitably overlook some things. And there are also people harboring devious schemes. Thismoner would be so bold as to make the decision on one’s own, wishing to contribute one’s humble effort for wangye, just don’t know what arrangements wangye has, not daring to act blindly without thinking, so as to avoid beating the grass and startling the snake, causing trouble instead of helping. Thus, thismoner just sorted out every influential family’s rtion with the various people of the official circle, hoping to be able to have some use towards wangye.”


    As he finished speaking, Min Yu Han presented up a small booklet.


    Li Hong Yuan didn’t refuse either, letting Mu An receive the booklet, casually flipping through, but after reading two three pages, Li Hong Yuan’s expression slightly turned solemn, having the booklet looked through all the way to the end, holding by his hand. “Somewhat useful.”


    Li Hong Yuan although had people nted in Jiangnan, there were still limitations after all. In some areas, it wasn’t that convenient to make a move, for instance,rge influential families’ interior. The closer the person was to the core, the harder it was to arrange a spy. The people by those people’s side generally have been following them since childhood and were house-born servants, the level of loyalty very high, so regardless whether it was bribing or switching the person, the difficulty was all very high. However, Min Yu Han was different. He was a di descendant of the Min n’s main family, deeply valued to begin with, and because of misfortune arising, thus got marginalized by the family n. Now that he has returned to the family, even if the n is still indifferent towards him, they still can’t deny his talent. Some things, without needing to voluntarily go do, there will still be people voluntarily approaching. He perhaps can say a few words, and because usually drawing blood on the first prick, towards him, the family n naturally just increasingly relied on heavily. Him wanting to know a bit of something, whilst also not touching upon the family n’s interest, naturally won’t attract attention.


    These things, within the interiors of therge influential families, perhaps weren’t anything important, but to the people outside, it was very difficult to find out about.


    Upon hearing, Min Yu Han slightly sighed in relief, “To be able to be of some use to wangye, naturally can’t be better.”


    Truthfully speaking, Li Hong Yuan ‘meeting with mishap’, his worry and fretfulness wasn’t any less than anyone’s, just he very quickly discovered, things perhaps weren’t the same as he’d thought. Because of that trace of clue, he calmed down, carefully looking into. In addition to some deductions, he already had the matter mostly figured out.


    Even if knowing that Li Hong Yuan didn’t really meet with danger, Min Yu Han’s mood still didn’t have the slightest improvement, even bing more gloomy.


    All these years, he had always been muddleheaded, and didn’t think carefully. After waking up, he had the matters in the past carefullybed through, increasingly feeling that something wasn’t right. Some things really weren’t as simple as how they appeared on the surface. In this nearly a year’s time, while simultaneously helping Li Hong Yuan do some things in secret, he carefully investigated little by little. The heavens do not betray a resolute person, he ultimately found some useful things.


    And just that tiny bit that floated onto the surface already made him have the Pei n leader hated to the bone.


    That year, Le Cheng Emperor who was still a qinwang at the time had traveled south, having a chance encounter with the Pei n daughter, falling in love at first sight. And at that time, it was precisely the time when the current Pei n leader was fighting with his brothers over the position of n leader. That kind of battle waspletely on par with the imperial court’s battle for the throne, just the scope involved wasn’t that big.


    The current Pei n leader’s brothers just clung on to this matter not letting go, saying that not only having involvement with the imperial family vited against the ancestral teachings, but the Pei n main family’s di daughter bing a concubine practically just made the entire family n lose all face, and the current Pei n leader, out of love for his daughter, even did some untimely things. But in the end, he chose the family n and abandoned the self, not only letting his youngest di daughter ‘die suddenly’, he even heartlessly had the person crossed out from the ancestral records, and for this reason, was even very depressed for a period of time.


    However, Min Yu Han discovered, this matter, in a certain sense, instead secured his unwavering ce as the sessor.


    Min Yu Han also learned about the current Pei n leader’s character from many sides, and the more he learned, the more fearful he became, and at the same time, also just increasingly detested.


    He, as the Pei n’s n leader, living for the sake of the entire family n’s interest, perhaps can’t be criticized, but he was also cold-blooded and cold-hearted,pletelycking human warmth, his means ruthless. As long as he believes it’s worth it, even if a torrent of offenses, he still won’t bat an eye, and as long as he believes it’s worth it, his close family can also be abandoned, and even scheme against in all kinds of ways. In his eyes, there was probably just useful people, and useless people. The former can be doted on in all kinds of ways, cupped into the heavens, while thetter, under normal circumstances, waspletely disregarded, and if identally running before him, that was just unhesitantly getting stepped into the mud.


    Because of this further understanding, he didn’t believe the matter that year was just a coincidence, and that Guan Guan just happened to encounter by chance. After further investigating, although he didn’t obtain definite proof, but ording to his guesses, Guan Guan getting seen by Le Cheng Emperor, perhaps simply wasn’t an ident, but rather schemed by someone. And this person was very possibly the Pei n leader, that old thing.


    Min Yu Han once again became a trapped beast, just a tiny bit, just a tiny bit, that’s all.


    He previously couldn’t figure out the Pei n leader’s reason for doing this, all the way until he learned that the Pei n has been paying attention to Jin Qinwang all these years, all the way until realizing that it was probably that old thing that ‘kidnapped’ Jin Qinwang, and as if enlightened with perfect wisdom, he thought of a possibility. All the calctions perhaps were just for the sake of one thing, an imperial prince, an imperial prince possessing the Pei n’s blood. As long as one appropriately handles, the Pei n entering the imperial court again was just a matter of pushing along the currents.


    Although just guesses, but after contemting over and over, this possibility was very big. Moreover, hepletely didn’t have reason to make excuses for that old thing, so just determined as true, and towards that old thing, he can be said to hate to the bone. Especially whenever the other party would put on a fake look, continuously groaning in pain towards him, saying that the Pei n was sorry to him, he hated that he couldn’t drink his blood and devour his flesh. However, what further shocked him was that despite his hatred overflowing the heavens, he was still able to not reveal in the slightest, feigning civility with him.


    Just, this n couldn’t keep up with the changes. No one ever expected that because of him, the extremely jealous Le Cheng Emperor would actually under towering rage kill Guan Guan, even causing Guan Guan’s only son to be born as a ghost child. Even if Le Cheng Emperor was good to this son in every possible way, he didn’t give him any power. And probably because of this, the Pei n thus didn’te looking earlier.


    Right now, that old thing finally extended his hand towards Jin Qinwang, so how can he tolerate!


    “Wangye, the Pei n harbor ill intentions, especially the Pei n leader, that old thing, for the sake of achieving his goals,pletely unscrupulous, hoping wangye can be careful.”


    “For that old thing’s actions to all be found out by even you, looks like it wasn’t that secretive either.” Li Hong Yuan nonchntly said. It wasn’t contemptuous, just feeling it further surpassed contempt.


    T/N: Honestly any ‘truth’ involving the current Pei n leader won’t be anything good lol. In a way, his n was really a two birds with one stone n, minus the fact that LHY became a ghost child.
