"The old lady's statement is that she is not a princess of the Japanese Kingdom, but an ordinary Japanese woman." Zhou Shu replied.

Jian Ying had reservations about this statement, "If it's just an ordinary Japanese woman, why hide in a remote house?" ”

It is said that when Liu Xusheng went to the island where the Japanese army was stationed to spy on the military situation, he received the favor of the woman to heal her wounds and give food. Later, he stumbled upon the woman who had been resold to Daliang and became a geisha, so he ransomed the woman and placed her in the house, intending to find an opportunity to send her home in the future.

After the case, although the woman also insisted that she was not the princess of the Wa Kingdom, no one believed it, and no one could prove that the woman was redeemed by Liu Xusheng from the place of sound.

When the Japanese received the news, they sent several groups of dead soldiers to rob the prisoners, as many as three or four hundred. Although he failed to rob Dingguo Gong and others, he did not hesitate to sacrifice so many people to rescue him, and this 'affection' is self-evident.

Most importantly, a portrait of a dead soldier was found in palace clothes and identical to the woman's appearance.

The evidence is ironclad, and the people of the Dingguo Mansion are speechless. ”

Obviously, it was the Yao and Qiu families who reported to the Wa State. Dingguo Gong repeatedly inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese navy, and the Japanese wished that their whole family would die. Using a few hundred dead soldiers to wipe out a naval army general who can fight well is really a bargain.

If you want to say that you are wronged, the Dingguo Mansion is indeed quite wronged. The whole family sold their lives for the first emperor for decades with their heads, but when they were in full swing, they ended up collaborating with the enemy and treason, and they were beheaded all over the house.

To say that it is not wronged. They also deserve bad luck. When the first emperor proposed to continue Liu Baolan as the queen, they should weigh that their parents did not grow so big and could swallow the military power and the rear position into their stomachs at the same time.

Holding military power is already easy to be feared, and if there is another queen in the family, wouldn't it be a circle to pull hatred?

Who can blame the once-glorious Dingguo Mansion withering overnight?

Blame Yao and Qiu? It is true that the Yao and Qiu families are the culprits, and there is never a shortage of unscrupulous people under the word profit. If there is no Yao family, there will be the Zhang family and the Li family.

Blame the little boy who learned nursery rhymes and leaked the widow's hiding? As long as you look for it, you can always find those "trumped-up" charges. He just unintentionally provided a clue when others had a heart.

Blame the Emperor? The first emperor pitted them. But he said hello when he was in the pit.

He can get a sperm worm on the brain. Because he is a king, willfulness is his birthright. If he does something wrong, he will at most be punished, and find a piece of clothing that he doesn't like to help him get a few strokes.

The Dingguo Mansion must not be stunned by the favor that fell from the sky, because they are ministers. Live under the authority of the king. Live in the midst of a treacherous power struggle. There is a slight mistake in the line. There will be no return.

In the final analysis, they are too arrogant, thinking that they have made a lot of achievements in war, and they are worthy of admiration. There is nothing to be afraid of in the world, so the first emperor rewarded the second position, and they followed with peace of mind.

They may not be unaware of how many people are staring at that position, but subconsciously they don't pay attention to those people. didn't deduce, didn't guard, and even collected a widow during the sensitive period after the establishment, and sent a huge handle to others.

On the battlefield of real swords and guns, they strategized and were invincible, but on the battlefield where there was no smoke of gunpowder, they were negligent and defeated.

Zhou Shu believed that the old lady's maiden family did not collaborate with the enemy and commit treason, but he couldn't sympathize with that family. Especially since this family is still ghosted, interfering with his life, and may even affect him, he can't sympathize with them even more.

Everything has a cause and effect, and when they embark on the path of power and compete with others for favor, they should think of the worst outcome and be prepared to bear it. He would not hold grievances for a group of people he had never met, let alone put him and his wife and children at mortal risk in order to give them a better reputation after death.

When he came back to his senses, he saw Jian Ying looking at him with her cheeks raised, as if she was seeing him for the first time, and raised her eyebrows in confusion, "Why do you look at me like this?" ”

"I didn't expect you to still be of royal blood." Jian Ying said with a grin, and touched him twice with her hand, "I'm dabbled with dragon energy." ”

"What royal blood?" Zhou Shu snorted disdainfully, "My surname is Zhou, and I only have anger on my body, not dragon energy." ”

Jian Ying nodded approvingly, "Yes, you and the old prince are really like grandchildren, and they both have a hobby of raising wives and children for others."

You're just going to do it, but bring someone back as a concubine in name only. The old prince is inevitably too selfless, he is reluctant to eat and wear, and his family property is used to honor the old lady, and he only faces the old lady until he dies.

Could this be the legendary true love? ”

Zhou Shu was still grateful and respectful to the old prince who had also never met, and he didn't want to comment on the dead person, so he pursed the corners of his lips and said nothing.

Jian Ying changed her hand to support her chin and tilted her head to look at him, "Do you say that the old prince knows that he is raising his wife and son for the first emperor?" ”

"I guess I know." There was an obscure emotion flowing slowly in Zhou Shu's eyes, "Although the old lady didn't say it in detail in her handwriting, I feel that my grandfather had a friendship with the Dingguo Mansion, and it was no accident that he saved the old lady."

The old lady also said that her grandfather had never touched her, and she was the woman of the first emperor from beginning to end. ”

"The old prince is really ......"

Jian Ying was halfway through her words, and suddenly she didn't know how to describe him. Respectable is respectable, but also pitiful and lamentable.

The old concubine is pathetic, she has been widowed for most of her life, and she is proud of being a woman who has been the emperor from beginning to end. In the end, she was exchanged for a secret decree that she was not allowed to show her integrity and that her son was not allowed to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.

The first emperor was not a person with a cold nature, otherwise he would not have recognized King Ji'an as his righteous son, granted him a hereditary title, and would not have promised to rehabilitate the Dingguo Mansion. The reason for this secret decree is because once the grievances of the Dingguo Mansion are revealed, and the old concubine shows that he is right, he has to fulfill the promise he made that year, and make the old concubine the queen, and the king of Ji'an will become a serious prince.

Regardless of whether the old prince has touched the old lady or not, in the eyes of others, the old lady is someone else's wife, and he has to have a little green on his head. The most important thing is that the hatred in the old lady's heart is too strong, and if they return their mother and son to the royal family, there will inevitably be a killing.

His selfishness and hard work are unkind to the old lady. What's more, he hasn't been able to rehabilitate the Dingguo Mansion, so he kicked his legs and went west, which is the most maddening betrayal.

Jian Ying finally understood why the old lady reacted so strongly when she heard that the first emperor had died, and why she had to use such extreme means to kill the Qin family. It's not just because Zhou Shu's maternal grandfather killed her whole family with a nursery rhyme, she wanted to get rid of the Qin family and cut off the roots and concerns of King Ji'an, so as to achieve the goal of forcing him to rebel.

"Do the math, my father has been planning for nearly twenty years." Jian Ying looked into Zhou Shu's eyes, "Do you have the confidence and ability to stop him?" ”
