Chapter 93: Secrets (2)
When I came out of Yunhou Mansion, it was already afternoon.
Tillian leaned against the wall of the car in a daze, all she thought about was Mrs. Xie's indulgence and love for her over the years.
When she first came to this world, the first person to stand up for her was Mrs. Xie, when she was still in infancy, Mrs. Xie always couldn't help crying when she hugged her, and the grief on her face showed that she missed Xie Lanzhi deeply.
I remember that every time I went to see Mrs. Xie when I was a child, she was happy all day long, and often hugged Tillian and was reluctant to let go, for fear that she would not remember her biological mother, Mrs. Xie would mention every bit of Xie Lanzhi's growth from time to time.
Over the years, the grand-grandchild friendship between Tillian and Mrs. Xie has outweighed the weight of maternal love, and she never thought that Mrs. Xie would not be her own grandmother.
After more than ten years of intimate relationship, every time I think of it in the past, I feel like a spring day and warmth in my heart, but from today, when I think about it again, I only feel full of sadness.
At this moment, Di Lian suddenly remembered the day Xie Xunke died, he once said, 'Don't think that your grandmother and grandfather have been together comfortably all their lives, her life is not easy. â
He also said, 'If a person can meet a confidant in this life, it is a blessing for the two of them, but the word fate does not necessarily involve love. â
He said that he didn't want to marry into the Xie family, so he read the poem and let her choose her own path.
Dependent on each other for decades, supporting the prosperity of the Rongguo Mansion, experiencing the wind and rain with each other, coming to an end, his grandfather's words for his grandmother, but only guilt and apology, in his heart, he missed her Jiang Dilian more than his grandmother.
"Between people, it turns out that love or not love is really a lifelong thing. She didn't love Emperor Xiang, but she had to marry him as the queen, and in the end, she could only be separated from her biological mother and daughter in order to keep her daughter safe; My grandfather loved Princess Jikang, but he could only watch her stay with the man next to him, and he was obsessed with paying people wrong, and he had to raise her and other people's daughters for her; My grandmother also loves my grandfather, otherwise how could she be so wronged and have no resentment. Muttering, Tillian looked at Xie Hengxu blankly.
Qingsu's face was sad and tearful, Xie Hengxu's thin lips were pursed, and he leaned over and hugged her into his arms, soothing her softly, "Lian'er, the children's private relationship is not only about love, but also about fate, Princess Jikang is a person who cannot live in the world, and her grandfather is going to inherit the title of Duke of Rongguo, how can he marry her?" Fortunately, she can find her beloved, even if it is an ordinary life, it can be considered complete. In this world, there are always circles and shortcomings, and the past is a foregone conclusion, so there is no need to think about it anymore. â
Tilian snuggled in his arms, looking at the swaying car window with clear moon eyes, "Zixu, I didn't tell you that when my grandfather died, he said that he didn't want me to marry you, and he didn't want me to marry into the Xie family. â
That old man, with his own experience, intended to mislead her, it was really painstaking.
Xie Hengxu's arm stiffened, let go of Di Lian to support her shoulder, and looked stern, "Lian'er, it has been more than a hundred years now, your background is not important, as long as your family doesn't say it, and your grandmother doesn't say it, no one will know." â
Seeing that he was so nervous, and the dull sourness in his heart was slightly subdued, Di Lian lowered her eyes and smiled, "It's just that my grandfather said this, how could I be at his mercy, don't worry, I want to marry you, and no one can stop me." â
It is his day that her life experience is known, after all, the matter of Princess Jikang has passed for several generations, and Tillian is not a member of the royal family, so no one should pursue it anymore.
It's just that there is only one thing she can't understand, why did she send Princess Jikang out of the palace, and hide it from Emperor Xiang, even if she doesn't love Emperor Xiang, she also gave birth to a son and a daughter for him, but Emperor Xiang loves her like life, why should she send her daughter away?
"Zixu." , Di Lian looked at him and hesitated, "You say, Princess Jikang, could it be, isn't it the daughter of Emperor Xiang?" â
Xie Hengxu was stunned when he heard this, his phoenix eyes moved slightly, and he said with a shallow hook of his lips, "How come." â
His expression was different, and Di Lian snorted lightly when she saw this, "You still hide it from me, if Princess Jikang is the daughter of Emperor Xiang, even if someone knows about it, at most it can be regarded as the emperor living in the people, how can it involve the survival of the concubine family and the Xie family!" â
She is always so alert, Xie Hengxu was a little helpless, her shoulders fell weakly, and she said bluntly, "Princess Jikang is not the daughter of Emperor Xiang, otherwise why would Empress Qing send her out of the palace?" I guess that her biological father is Ji Zheng, the beloved of Ji Qing. â
Yue's eyes widened in disbelief, "Auntie? Surname?! "Is it incestuous and incestful?
Seeing her reaction, Xie Hengxu stroked his eyebrows with a headache, "Cheng Zheng is surnamed Cheng, but he is the last generation of Zhenguo Duke of Starfall, but he is not the bloodline of the Shen family, but the illegitimate son of the Emperor of Starfall at that time, and Xiao Qing's father only got a daughter of Xiao Qing under his knees, and then he was favored by the Emperor of Starfall, adopted Shen Zheng, and let him inherit the title of Duke of Zhenguo." â
What a mess this is, Tillian was speechless.
"You mean, since the concubine Qing's generation, the concubine family has cut off the incense, and now these juniors are all the bloodline of the Starfall royal family?"
Xie Hengxu bowed his head, "I led people to attack the Starfall camp at night that day, I was going to look for the soldier layout, but I didn't expect that there was a problem with this person, since all the important official documents were put together, regardless of the importance of all the official documents, when I found the soldier map, I also turned out a sealed box of brocade brocade, and broke the lock under curiosity, and found that it was an old silk and yellow cloth weaving, which was a secret decree about the life of the concubine, and the concubine family kept it, probably in order to publish it to the public once the family was oppressed by the royal family and faced a dilemma in the future. â
Tilian's mind is now in a mess, but in a moment, since she has changed from Xia Lan's royal family to Starfall's royal family, what a mess this is.
Seeing her frowning and confused, Xie Hengxu sighed and said in a low voice, "Because of the unruly love between Xiao Qing and Xiao Zheng that was rumored by the Starfall people, I just guessed this step, I just said that Princess Jikang may not be the blood of Emperor Xiang, if she is the daughter of Shen Zheng, then it makes sense." As for whether I guessed correctly, I still need to verify with my grandmother, and only when Yunhou was present, I would not say such a thing. â
Yes, if Princess Jikang is the bloodline of Aunt Qing and Aunt Zheng, then according to Emperor Xiang's temperament, she will definitely not be allowed to save her zĂ i, and all Princess Ji Qing will do their best to secretly send her out of the palace, as for why Princess Rongguo raised Princess Ji Kang for Princess Ji Qing at that time, it is unknown, because Princess Ji Kang's identity is sensitive, Xie Xunke can't marry her even if she loves her, because then she will have to wander in front of the world as the Duchess of Rong Guo, and it will inevitably bring disaster to the Xie family.
In this way, it really makes sense.
Especially the current concubine family, if the secret decree about the concubine Zheng's life experience is leaked out, the concubine family will definitely not be able to live in peace in the world anymore, and they don't want to reveal this secret until they have to, because they don't want to compete for the throne.
The more she thought about it, the more she had a headache, Tillian stroked her forehead, closed her eyes and shook her head, and sighed, "This matter is considered in the past, don't mention it again." â
Xie Hengxu nodded, held her hand and said, "Since everything is clear, let's go back to the Rongguo Mansion, and the family affairs should be done as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night." Thinking so, he looked at Tillian's abdomen with a smile.
Di Lian's thoughts were still a little confused at the moment, so naturally she didn't notice his abnormality, she just sighed, and said lightly, "It's not all figured out, but there is still the Soul Suppression Gu left." â
Xie Hengxu frowned disapprovingly, and held her big palm tightly, "Let's talk about this matter slowly, I said that if you get married first, you will get married first!" â
Tillian glanced at him amusedly, and a shallow smile was tacit.
Seeing this, Xie Hengxu's thin lips hooked, and a bright smile appeared in an instant.
Seeing his sunrise and sun-like smile again, Dilian only felt as if she had seen the moon open, and she couldn't help but sigh with emotion. (To be continued.) )
