The woman with a graceful posture was none other than Tang Ting.

The Tang family is a famous family in Xichuan, and most of the people around the people here know about the Tang family, and some people have seen Tang Ting, but the old woman she is holding is obviously a complete stranger to most people - except for a few people.

Xue Qian first glared at Tang Ting, obviously she knew very well that the Tang family had been standing behind me, and it was naturally not a good thing for them that Tang Ting would appear here, but when her eyes fell on the old woman on the side, she suddenly seemed to see something incredible, and her eyes widened.

She pointed at her and stammered, "You, you—"

“……”

"You're, Zhao—"

Speaking of this, she bit her tongue herself.

And the pale old woman, her face was full of tiredness, and she was even more old by the scorching sun above her head, she looked at Xue Qian, and nodded lightly: "Miss Xue Er......"

Everyone knows that this Old Lady Yan is surnamed Xue, the second miss of the Xue family, but maybe after a long time, even she herself will forget her original identity, because she has been an old lady Yan for too long, and it is too long, no one has this qualification, has this memory, and calls her "Second Miss Xue".

This person who came was none other than Zhao Shuyuan!

I once heard that Zhao Shuyuan was originally the maid of Empress Yin when she entered the palace, and Empress Yin was born in Xichuan, so I also guess that it is very likely that they have dealings with the people of the Xue family, and now it seems that this is indeed the case.

Zhao Shuyuan looked at her with a pale face, and her smile was so faint that it seemed to dissipate at any time: "We, long time no see." ”

Xue Qian still couldn't believe her eyes: "You're actually-"

Zhao Shuyuan said very calmly: "I'm still alive." ”

Although I said that, her pale appearance really looked like a ghost, and I even felt that she would disappear into the sunlight the next moment, so I subconsciously walked over and led her and Tang Ting to a cool place, Zhao Shuyuan raised her head and looked at me, her eyes flashed slightly, as if something crystal poured out.

She had only seen me once before, when she was sober.

But after she went crazy, she kept me company for a long time, and now her eyes are clear and recognize me, and obviously she should remember all the things that happened after she went crazy.

She looked at me and choked up, "Thank you." ”

I shook my head.

To be honest, I didn't pin my hopes on her this time, after all, a woman who has gone crazy, she can't tell the truth, and even if she can say it, no one will believe it, but when I returned to Yilan Villa in Bishan, knowing that she had been sent by Liu Qinghan for diagnosis and treatment for a long time, I still put a glimmer of hope on her.

That's why Tang Ting was asked to answer her.

It's just-

I looked back at Tang Ting: "Why did you delay for so long?"

Tang Ting's expression was a little complicated, she looked at me, looked around again, and then whispered: "Miss, there are some other situations, I'll talk to Miss in detail when the matter here is over." ”

What else is there going on?

I couldn't help frowning, what I was most afraid of at this time was that there was something that was not under my control, even if I had a way to deal with it, but in the face of Pei Yuanxiu, I really didn't dare to distract myself from dealing with other things.

Seeing my worried look, Tang Ting hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Miss, it's not these things. ”

As she spoke, she glanced around out of the corner of her eye.

In this way, it shouldn't be bad.

So, I breathed a sigh of relief, and when I turned back, I saw that Zhao Shuyuan had let go of Tang Ting's hand, and she slowly walked towards Pei Yuanxiu.

At this moment, Pei Yuanxiu's face had regained calm.

I thought that he would be surprised when he saw Zhao Shuyuan, in fact, he did have a moment of suffocation just now, and I clearly heard his gasp, but he calmed down so quickly.

Even if Nangong Jinhong had already told him the news that Zhao Shuyuan was still alive, at the moment, Zhao Shuyuan's appearance could completely prove his life experience and expose his lie just now...... Why is he still so calm?

Is it pretending to be calm?

I don't know why, once I have such worries in my heart, it is difficult for me to suppress that uneasy feeling, after all, I am not facing those women in the harem who compete for favor, nor are I ordinary corrupt officials and corrupt officials, powerful bullies.

What I'm facing is Pei Yuanxiu!

Just when I looked at them nervously, Zhao Shuyuan had already walked in front of Pei Yuanxiu and looked up at him.

Pei Yuanxiu also looked at her indifferently.

For a while, no one spoke again, and even the villagers who had exchanged words and talked about each other before were quiet at the moment, and everyone's eyes were focused on these two people.

The two of them were silent for a long time, looking at each other, even if the people around them didn't know the entanglement, they felt a little strange, and Xue Qian was a little out of breath, she grabbed the hand of the maid next to her and stood firm, and then said: "What are you doing here? We are discussing a big matter, what do you have to do, wait for the people of our Yan family to finish speaking, you can talk about it!"

At this time, Zhao Shuyuan suddenly laughed.

She turned her head to look at Xue Qian, and her smile flashed with a little indescribable sadness: "Second Miss Xue, Old Madam Yan, that's not what the people of the Yan family said at the beginning." ”

“……”

"At the beginning, which person in Hongyan Mansion was not elected by the Yan family?"

“……”

"Which one is not carrying the mission of the Yan family?"

“……”

"Now, the affairs of the Yan family have nothing to do with me?"

As soon as she heard her words, many people around her changed their faces, Hongyan Building is not a secret in Xichuan, but it is not a topic that can be put on the table, how many people have entered Hongyan Building, how many people have withered in it, and how many people have come out alive, not many outsiders know.

I was just guessing before, but now I am finally sure that Zhao Shuyuan, like her former master, Queen Yin, has entered Hongyan Tower.

It's just that the Hongyan Building back then, not like later, everyone had to fight like a trapped beast, they just learned some skills, skills - that is what I once learned hard, how to please men, how to become a woman who men can't live without...... Use these skills and skills to survive in the harem, win a place, and even spy on some useful information for Nishikawa.

It's just that the later Hongyan Building is completely different.

Despite the scorching sun, I shuddered.

Xue Qian's face also seemed to be in the ice and snow, her face was so pale that there was no trace of blood, she glared at Zhao Shuyuan: "Then what do you want to say?!"

Zhao Shuyuan turned her head to look at Pei Yuanxiu, who had been silent and as steady as Mount Tai: "I want to follow what you just said." ”

“……”

"Aren't you asking your Miss Yan, what evidence does she have to prove this person's background?"

“……”

"I'm the proof!"

As she spoke, she took another step forward, almost in front of Pei Yuanxiu, the two of them were close at hand, although she was so weak that she seemed to be about to fall down at any time, but her gaze was extremely firm, even with a sharpness that had never been seen before: "Your Highness, I want to ask you, what kind of heart are you?"

“……”

"Regardless of whether Yuan Chen is your brother or not, but he has followed you for so many years, if the prince of the court recognizes the second, no one dares to recognize the first. He was burned alive in the Qingmei Courtyard in order to take the throne for you!"

“……”

"Pei Yuanhao, he is so vicious in his heart, he doesn't want to hurt Yuanzhen. ”

“……”

"And you, how did you treat me, how did you treat Yuanzhen?"

“……”

"Is it really because you are not the emperor's son, so you are going to kill all the royal people?!"

Pei Yuanxiu looked down at her, and from beginning to end, his eyes were only faint, and there was not even a little movement.

And Xue Qian was obviously a little flustered, especially when she heard Zhao Shuyuan's last sentence, she was even more impatient to come forward and say, "What are you talking nonsense!"

"I'm not talking nonsense!"

Zhao Shuyuan said, turned around, looked at the surprised villagers around, and said loudly: "You may not know who I am, I want to sue you, I was also a person from Xichuan, I also entered the Hongyan Building, and also entered the palace. I was originally the personal maid of the second empress of the emperor, but later, I became one of the emperor's concubines, and even so, I was wholeheartedly loyal to my master......"

“……”

"That's why I learned her secret. ”

“……”

Pei Yuanxiu looked at her motionlessly, and Xue Qian was already angry and stepped forward to arrest her, Zhao Shuyuan didn't know where the strength came from, such a weak body, she actually waved Xue Qian away with one hand, and then pointed at Pei Yuanxiu and said: "He, he is not the son of the emperor at all!"

“……”

Suddenly, the people around were in an uproar.

The front yard of the ancestral hall, which was originally quiet and silent, was like a boiling soup pot at the moment, although no one was making a big noise, but such a shocking secret was revealed, and all the people's moods were difficult to calm down, and even I was a little trembling at the moment.

But the man at the center of the storm was calm.

Even, calmer than any of us, he looked at Zhao Shuyuan indifferently, as if what she said just now had nothing to do with him.

Yan Qingchen held on to the wheelchair and said, "You might as well tell me who he is." Who did the queen of the Emperor give birth to?"

Zhao Shuyuan said: "At that time, Empress Yin, she was not a queen, but a virtuous concubine, the queen at that time was Queen Zhaolie-" She said, glancing at Xue Qian from the corner of her eye, the latter was like being punched in the chest, shocking her whole body to pieces, she couldn't stop trembling, staggered back a few steps, and Zhao Shuyuan's face was painful, and then said: "That virtuous concubine Niangniang, she and Empress Zhaolie were pregnant at the same time as the imperial concubine, but she only gave birth to a daughter. ”

“……”

"That daughter is not the daughter of the Emperor, not the princess of the golden branches and jade leaves, but she was born of fornication with others!"

“……”

However, in order to compete for favor, she exchanged her daughter with the son of a courtier. ”

“……”

"This child, like this, grew up in the palace, under the protection of the emperor and the empress, and was later canonized as the crown prince, but who knows, there is no royal blood flowing in his body at all, he is just an imposter prince from beginning to end!"

“……”

"You, Pei Yuanxiu, you are the child who was exchanged for the palace!"

“……”

"Your position as the crown prince is fake!"

Pei Yuanxiu stood there, his eyes flickering slightly.

Zhao Shuyuan pointed at him, her fingers trembling constantly: "I...... It was because I knew this secret that as soon as my child was born, he was replaced by your cruel adoptive mother, who wanted to shut me up forever and never reveal this secret. ”

“……”

"I've been like this, quiet for so many years, but I'm so quiet, you don't even want to let me go, you let people go to burn Huangze Temple, kill me, and you won't even let go of my daughter!"

“……”

"My Yuanzhen, she called you the imperial brother for decades, and you actually sent someone to kill her on her wedding night!"

“……”

"Do you think that in this way, you can bury this secret forever? Unfortunately, God will not let you! I survived!"

“……”

"God let me survive, just to expose this fact today, Pei Yuanxiu, you are not the crown prince, and you have no power to seize the throne at all. ”

As she spoke, she turned her head and shouted to the people around her: "His words are all false, if you want to follow him, you will be rebellious, you will be committing rebellion!

This time, Xue Qian couldn't stand anymore, and she didn't have the dragon staff in her hand to support her, and suddenly her feet were weak, and she almost fell, and several maids screamed and helped her, and the wolf fell there.

Yan Gang looked at Zhao Shuyuan with a pale face.

At this moment, I have no doubt that he wants to break Zhao Shuyuan and even me into pieces, but the words have already been spoken, and the facts are difficult to change, the hand he grabbed the armrest of the chair and kept working hard, and even pinched the armrest so that it was about to shatter, making a sound of collapse.

At this time, Pei Yuanxiu raised his head lightly, his face was not moved in the slightest, and he was even calmer than just now.

I suddenly chuckled in my heart.

He's too calm.

Calm, as if a qiē, is under his control.

……

Just when the shadow in my heart was getting bigger and bigger, he said indifferently, even with a light smile: "Your words are not wrong." ”

“……”

"Indeed, my background is as you said, not the blood of the Heavenly Family. ”

“……”

"Therefore, what I just said about Xichuan raising troops to plan for great things is not Kuangzheng, but - the founding of the country!"
