Chapter 206: Secret
The two were so close that Xu Jinyu could clearly feel the changes in his body. While his face was warm and his heart was beating, the questions hidden in his heart naturally came out.
When she saw Chen Yuanzhao's slightly distorted handsome face, Xu Jinyu realized what she had asked. I couldn't help but feel ashamed. As a dignified and courteous daughter, how can you ask such a question
However, after asking all the questions, it is useless to be annoyed at this time.
So, Xu Jinyu cheekily asked again: "Who spread such rumors?" ”
Chen Yuanzhao's distorted handsome face quickly returned to normal, and he replied lightly: "It's me." ”
Xu Jinyu: ""
"It's fake to have a hidden disease, but it's true that I'm not close to women and hate women."
For the first time in his life, Chen Yuanzhao explained to others the origin of the message: "I entered the barracks since I was ten years old, and I have been living in the barracks since then. There are very few people who go back to home, and they never want maids to serve them. My mother was worried, so when I was sixteen years old, she specially selected a few flower-like maids to 'serve' me. I threw them all out. The mother was angry and helpless, and there were rumors in the house. I simply ordered people to spread these rumors out of the house, and soon they spread all over the capital. ”
"After that, my mother wanted to hold a family affair for me, but I refused. I secretly made it clear to my father that I only wanted to lead the troops to fight, and I didn't want to start a family early. My father responded, and in the past few years, he has not mentioned family affairs again. ”
The rumors have also intensified, and almost everyone knows about them.
Xu Jinyu couldn't help but say: "You have been alone in your previous life and have not married. Why is that? ”
Chen Yuanzhao replied lightly: "I haven't met a woman who makes my heart move, I don't want to get married." ”
Is it really that simple?
Xu Jinyu frowned slightly. After thinking for a moment, he raised his eyes and looked at Chen Yuanzhao: "There must be more than one reason!" ”
Chen Yuanzhao's eyes flashed. Neither admit nor deny.
"Most of the marriages between men and women are blind and dumb, and there are many people who have never met before they get married. As you say. I don't know how many people in this world will die alone. Xu Jinyu's words were sharp and to the point: "You have always refused to get married, there must be some unknown reason." ”
Chen Yuanzhao's eyes flashed with surprise.
knew that Xu Jinyu was as careful as a hair and was intelligent, but at this moment, he was still shocked by her keenness.
Xu Jinyu paid close attention to the change in Chen Yuanzhao's expression, and when she saw his expression change slightly, she knew that she had guessed correctly: "Is this reason related to An Guogong?" ”
Chen Yuanzhao's whole body was shocked, and his sharp gaze locked her eyes tightly: "What do you know?" ”
Xu Jinyu said calmly: "I don't know anything. I just felt that there was something strange in it, and I thought about it a few times secretly. Thinking about it, I always feel that it is inseparable from An Guogong. ”
"Obviously, you are the son-in-law, but you haven't invited the prince for a long time. I remember that when you died in your previous life, the position of the prince of An Guo was still undecided. This is unusual! An Guogong favors your brother, and he is partiality to the point that everyone knows it. Chen Yuanbai is indeed excellent, but he is still inferior to you. I really can't figure out why the Anguo Guild is so biased. ”
Chen Yuanzhao was silent.
Xu Jinyu said to herself: "An Guogong is not just a favored concubine. And pampering the concubine, and your mother's relationship is very cold, and it is strange. But I always feel that something is wrong, even if the husband and wife are not harmonious, they will not be so cold and alienated from you, the sister-in-law. Among them. What's the secret? ”
Chen Yuanzhao obviously didn't want to talk about this topic, so he responded lightly: "My father and I are really alienated and indifferent. However, he didn't target me specifically. You don't have to worry."
"Chen Yuanzhao!" Xu Jinyu interrupted Chen Yuanzhao: "You keep saying that you want to marry me." If I marry you, husband and wife will be one. You have an embarrassing position in the Anguo Mansion, where should I go? I'm not afraid of adversity. But I can't keep it in the dark. ”
"When the two get along, it's important to be honest. You know all my qiē, but yours is unknown to me. It's so unfair to me. It's enough to show that you didn't take me to heart from beginning to end. So you don't want me to know your secrets! ”
Sentence sharper than sentence!
Chen Yuanzhao's expression was a little ugly.
A wordless silence spread, and the air gradually became condensed. The bodies of the two are still nestled together, but they have long lost their previous charm.
Xu Jinyu stared at Chen Yuanzhao tightly, insisting on an answer.
After a while, Chen Yuanzhao slowly opened his mouth and said, "I do have a great secret. This secret is related to my life experience, and I have always been ignorant of it in my previous life. I didn't know until I was dying. ”
Xu Jinyu was taken aback, and suddenly moved: "It has something to do with your life experience?" What does this mean? Could it be that you are not An Guogong's biological son at all? ”
Chen Yuanzhao's eyes flashed with pain, and he nodded stiffly
Xu Jinyu's face was stunned and incredulous, and she was stunned for a long time, not knowing what to say for a while.
Chen Yuanzhao is not An Guogong's bloodline!
No wonder An Guogong is cold and alienated from him, no wonder An Guogong is unwilling to ask for the title of prince, and no wonder An Guogong is indifferent to his family affairs
Wait a minute!
"Your mother gave birth to you with another man~, how could An Guogong swallow this breath?" Xu Jinyu keenly grasped the most important point: "And one endurance is so many years?" ”
An Guo Gongda can expose the matter and divorce his wife and marry another. Why bother wearing this green hat for twenty years!
No, it's more than twenty years. In his previous life, until the Anguo Mansion was beheaded, Chen Yuanzhao's life history was never disclosed. In other words, An Guogong didn't tell this secret until he died!
This is also incredible!
A man with a little bit of blood can't bear this breath!
Chen Yuanzhao's eyes flashed with ridicule: "This sullen breath, he can't bear it, he has to endure it." ”
In just one sentence, it reveals an unusual meaning.
An astonishing thought flashed through Xu Jinyu's mind, and her voice trembled uncontrollably: "He had to swallow his anger, is it because your biological father is too noble." He didn't dare to say anything at all. ”
Chen Yuanzhao looked at Xu Jinyu and nodded. The look is unpredictable.
Xu Jinyu's heart was turbulent, and her mind was in chaos. The thought became clearer.
She whispered as if muttering: "Your mother secretly had an affair with the emperor, and then gave birth to you." An Guogong knew that you were not his biological son, so he had to pinch his nose and admit it, and he had to try his best to cover it up. Otherwise, once there is a scandal of the emperor's affair with his minister's wife, the emperor will lose face. The emperor is angry, and the lives of the entire Anguo Mansion will be guaranteed! ”
Chen Yuanzhao didn't say anything, which can be regarded as a tacit acquiescence.
Although Xu Jinyu guessed the facts, she was not happy at all. A pretty face tensed unconsciously, and his mind was in chaos.
Oh, my God!
Chen Yuanzhao turned out to be the emperor's son! In other words, his true identity is far more noble than it is now!
It's a pity that his identity can't be seen at all.
Duke An Guo will never publicize it, and the Duchess of An Guo does not abide by women's morality and will never dare to disclose this matter at will. The emperor probably felt a little guilty and pity for him, so he was particularly partial to him. He was only twenty years old before he could lead the Divine Guard Camp. This is obviously not unrelated to the emperor's preference
"Therefore, you died in the palace in your previous life, not because of rebellion, but because Queen Ye and King Chu knew your background." Xu Jinyu was still shocked. The chaotic thoughts gradually cleared up: "They got rid of you because they didn't want to leave any trouble." ”
"Yes." This memory is painful, and it is the deepest and most painful scar in Chen Yuanzhao's heart. When I mention it now, it is still as painful as tearing: "Queen Ye has always known my background. She showed weakness and used me to contribute to the king of Chu. While secretly watching out for me. After the king of Chu succeeded to the throne, he immediately poisoned me. ”
"I was on no alert, and that day I entered the palace as usual. Unexpectedly, what was waiting for me was the encirclement of the Royal Forest Army and countless sharp arrows. I brought some guards with me, but I didn't even have room to fight back. Soon, everyone around me died, and I was hit by several arrows. I was really unwilling in my heart, and before I died, I shouted angrily the name of the king of Chu."
The king of Chu knew that he would definitely die, and finally appeared.
The young man who was weak and delicate and always called "cousin" affectionately had grown into a young man, wearing a dragon robe, looking down at him condescendingly and dying. His eyes were full of the triumph of a victor and a ruthlessness he had never seen before.
Then, the king of Chu squatted down and whispered in his ear: "Chen Yuanzhao, if you want to blame your mother, you don't keep the woman's way to seduce ~ lead my father to give birth to you." How can I leave you alive in the world! ”
A qiē finally has an answer!
He closed his eyes in shock, anger and reluctance.
When he opened his eyes again, he was shocked to find that he had come back to life at the age of twenty. Perhaps, God couldn't bear to see him die with hatred, so he gave him a chance to do it again.
Queen Ye, King Chu, he won't let go of any of them!
Until he has the ability to take revenge, he will keep it alive and secretly accumulate strength. Yiqiē proceeded in an orderly manner according to his plan, and with the memory of his previous life, he was not too difficult to deal with the crown prince, King Qin, King Chu and others.
However, not everything is under his control.
Xu Jinyu was that accident, and it was also the biggest surprise after his rebirth.
"Ah Yu, I didn't want to get married in my previous life because I hated women and the love between men and women." Chen Yuanzhao finally confided in his heart: "Although I don't know my background, I have always known that my mother was unfaithful to my father. ”
The secrets I heard today are beyond imagination.
Xu Jinyu was almost numb from shock.
Chen Yuanzhao seemed to be calm, but in fact she was excited, and her subordinates were unconsciously exerting force, she was hugged tightly, and she was almost breathless.
"When I was young, my mother used to take me into the palace. Every time I enter the palace, I can always see the emperor. The emperor is very gentle to me, and he is very different to his mother. They thought I was young and ignorant, and they couldn't help but indulge a little in front of me, and sometimes they had eyebrows and flirtatiousness. ”
Chen Yuanzhao's face was calm, and his eyes were full of disgust: "My father and mother are cold and estranged, and they never sleep together. The mother seemed to be at a disadvantage, but the father didn't dare to do anything to her, which was quite a bit of a swallowing of his anger. I didn't say it, but I gradually understood in my heart that this was because my mother and the emperor were secretly forgiving ~ , and my father was angry but helpless. ”
"I was precocious and precocious since I was a child, and when I was eight years old, I was already sensible, and I gradually did not want to follow my mother into the palace. My mother didn't know what I was thinking, but she still took me into the palace. That time, I quietly hid, and then I saw my mother and the emperor together."
Xu Jinyu was thrilled to hear it, and subconsciously asked: "Have you seen everything?" ”
Pain flashed in Chen Yuanzhao's eyes, and he snorted.
This past is an unforgettable imprint on the heart of an eight-year-old child, and it will never be forgotten.
Xu Jinyu felt a burst of compassion in her heart, stretched out her arm, and took the initiative to hug him. It seems that such a move can comfort Chen Yuanzhao a little.
Chen Yuanzhao was immersed in the past, his eyes were dark, and his voice was low: "After returning home, I fell seriously ill. Since then, I have never been close to a woman, or even a maid! ”
"I hated my mother from the bottom of my heart and sympathized with my father. My father treated me coldly, and I only felt sad in my heart, but I never resented it. As a man, it is inevitable that my father will dislike my mother and dislike me when I suffer such humiliation. ”
"I tried my best to practice martial arts, just hoping to make my father happy and give me more love. Unfortunately, no matter what I do, my father won't give me a second look. He only has his eldest brother Chen Yuanbai in his eyes. He will patiently teach his eldest brother to read and write, he will take his eldest brother out for spring play, and I, if I want to enter my father's study, I have to plead carefully. lest I see the coldness and disgust in my father's eyes. ”
"I refused to get married, firstly, because I hated the love between men and women, and secondly, I wanted to make my father happy. He didn't want me to be the son of this world, so I simply gave up this position to Chen Yuanbai. If I don't marry a wife and have children, my father will have a righteous and bright reason not to ask for a son. ”
Thinking of himself who longed for his father's love but never received attention, Chen Yuanzhao pulled the corners of his lips, his eyes full of self-deprecation.
Xu Jinyu listened to these words, and such a scene suddenly appeared in his mind.
The handsome and gentle man carefully taught the eldest son to read and learn calligraphy, and the father and son were filial and happy. The young boy stood in the distance, longing for closeness, but not daring to do so
Is that Chen Yuanzhao when he was young?
Burdened with the pain of his mother's disobedience to women's morality, he longed for the unattainable father's love from afar
The love and grievances between the elders are not clear, but it is the young Chen Yuanzhao who really tastes the bitter fruit! Chen Yuanzhao resolutely left the Hou Mansion and went to the military camp since he was ten years old, not only to make meritorious contributions, but also to escape from this painful Qiqiē!
Compared with Chen Yuanzhao, she is much happier. At least, she had a brother and mother who genuinely loved her, and a carefree teenage age.
When Chen Yuanzhao lowered his head and reached out to touch her face, she was shocked to realize that she had burst into tears. (To be continued......)
