"Is there another version?"

Zheng Xin'er was surprised, she had only heard this version since she was a child.

Fang Yunyao opened her mind: "Could it be that it has something to do with this cat valley?" ”

Qin Wufeng said with a smile: "Miss Fang was really guessed correctly by you. ”

"This version is a bit mysterious, involving demons and monsters, and some of them are more or less fictional."

"Have you ever thought that since Concubine Liu had already bought the midwife at that time, why didn't she just let the midwife kill the prince born to Concubine Li, but replace the prince, and then ask Kou Zhu to do it?"

"There are two more links in between, and each additional link increases the risk, and even harms itself."

"Concubine Liu is so smart, why do you want to make this matter so complicated?"

As soon as Qin Wufeng's words came out, even Zheng Xin'er, who was familiar with history, said in a trance: "Yes, Concubine Liu is very smart, why don't you just let the midwife kill the prince immediately when she gave birth to him?" ”

Fang Yunyao also felt that this tanuki for the prince was really a bit of a redundant move, as long as the midwife killed the prince, and then found a reason, saying that the newborn prince died, wouldn't that be fine? As long as the kung fu arrives at home and does not leave a trace, I am afraid that even Song Zhenzong will not be able to find any clues, after all, in ancient times, the probability of a newborn child dying was quite high.

So even if it was Fang Yunyao, she probably wouldn't let a palace maid take the prince away in one more move, and then hand it over to her to deal with.

At this time, Liu Yifan, who had not spoken much, spoke:

"Because the midwife was not bought by Concubine Liu at all."

Qin Wufeng was stunned for a moment, "Grandmaster Liu, listening to your tone, you seem to know a little bit about this allusion. ”

Liu Yifan smiled faintly and said:

"If my guess is correct, the practical plan of exchanging the tanuki for the prince was proposed by the midwife, and the midwife had already expected that if the prince was replaced, Concubine Liu would definitely let her most trusted palace maid, that is, Kou Zhu, deal with the prince, and the midwife had already expected that with Kou Zhu's kindness, she would never kill a newborn baby."

"Then why would Concubine Liu believe the plan given by the midwife?"

"One, if the prince dies in the midwifery room, it is easy to leave clues, if Song Zhenzong follows the clues, it is very likely to find Concubine Liu, then at that time, Concubine Liu is afraid that she will steal chickens and rice, but will pay for her own life."

"Second, if you exchange a skinned tanuki for the prince, then you can use the topic to play and slander Concubine Li as a demon. Only demons can give birth to demons. In this way, Concubine Li will never be able to turn over. It can be described as killing two birds with one stone. ”

"It is precisely because of these two reasons that Concubine Liu listened to the midwife's plan."

Qin Wufeng couldn't help but admire when he heard Liu Yifan's analysis, "Grandmaster Liu, I didn't expect you to have such a deep understanding of this wild history. ”

Liu Yifan said: "I guessed." ”

Qin Wufeng said at this time: "Then do you know where the midwife got the tanuki?" ”

"You know, in the palace, you can't keep cats casually, you have to catch a cat temporarily, skin it, and put it in the delivery room bloodily, this process is not an easy thing."

Liu Yifan said: "Actually, it's not a tanuki at all, but a piece of flesh and blood spit out by the midwife." ”

"Qin Wufeng, am I right?"

Qin Wufeng was immediately stunned, he knew this?

"Grandmaster Liu, you're right, that's what is recorded in the historical inscription left by Cat Valley, not many people know about this wild history, but I didn't expect you to know it Grandmaster Liu."

"Grandmaster Liu, have you been to Cat Valley before?"

Liu Yifan said lightly: "I haven't been here"

"And how did you know about this wild history?"

Liu Yifan smiled faintly, noncommittal, could it be that my Tianchen Immortal Venerable would still tell you that I had just swept the inscription located in the center of Plum Blossom Village with my divine sense?

Zheng Xin'er and Fang Yunyao were full of surprise and surprise.

Fang Yunyao asked, "That midwife was able to spit out a lump of flesh and blood?" Isn't she human? ”

Qin Wufeng replied: "That's right, according to the wild history handed down in Cat Valley, the midwife is actually an old cat demon. ”

"And now the cats in Cat Valley are all her offspring."

"It was the old cat demon who used a clever trick at that time to save Song Renzong's life."

"Think about it, after Song Renzong became the crown prince, why was he so coincidentally able to enter a remote cold palace by mistake and meet his biological mother, Concubine Li? Actually, it was because a cat was showing him the way. ”

"In addition, Concubine Li was given death by Song Zhenzong, why was she able to save the day and escape from the heavily guarded palace? It is precisely because of the secret help of the old cat demon. Also, when Concubine Li was in Chenzhou, her life was difficult and she became a beggar, how could Bao Gong be so coincidental to meet Concubine Li in the huge Chenzhou? And learned that she was Concubine Li? ”

"Actually, it's also because of the old cat demon who is secretly helping."

"So, in fact, the most important character in the story of the tanuki changing the prince is not Bao Zheng, not the prince, not Concubine Li and Concubine Liu, but the old cat demon who is not recorded in any history books."

Later, Song Renzong succeeded to the throne, learned the truth, and was grateful to the old cat demon, so he built a cat valley in this place, and sent a good craftsman to build a huge stone statue of the divine cat, for the old cat demon and her descendants to live for a long time. and issued a holy decree that neither the army nor the government governor should disturb the free life of Cat Valley, nor should taxes be levied on Cat Valley. Those who violate the order will not be pardoned. ”

"So in the Song Dynasty, the cat valley was prosperous, but in the Yuan Dynasty, after the old cat demon ascended to immortality, the cat valley began to decline, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the stone statue of the cat valley was also destroyed by Zhu Yuanzhang."

"Because what Zhu Yuanzhang fears and hates the most is cats."

"Later, in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, in the center of the cat valley, on the ruins of the stone statue of the divine cat, the current plum blossom village was established."

"Cat Valley has returned to its former peace, but it has long since lost its prosperity."

Qin Wufeng talked eloquently, telling the history of the year.

When Zheng Xin'er and Fang Yunyao heard this, they both felt that this didn't seem to be an anecdote from wild history, but something that really happened, otherwise, there would not be such a detailed record.

It's just that if there are really monsters in this world, can humans still become the masters of the earth?

As soon as they thought of this, Zheng Xin'er and Fang Yunyao had to accept the fact that this was a fictional story.

This history of Cat Valley was recorded during the Ming Dynasty.

Everyone knows that in that era, all kinds of chapters were prevalent, and the people who wrote books used their imagination, and myths such as "Journey to the West" and "Romance of the Gods" came from that era.

Obviously, this history of Cat Valley should have been made up by people at that time.

The four of them walked to the Cat Valley, walked for about ten minutes, and finally came to the center of the Cat Valley, Plum Blossom Village.

"I'm tired, I need to find a place to rest!" Zheng Xin'er proposed.

Qin Wufeng said: "Go a little further, there is a cat-themed Qing bar, which is opened by the locals, it is very distinctive, we can go over there and take a rest." ”

"Good, good." Fang Yunyao hurriedly wiped the sweat on her forehead with her right hand and nodded in agreement. She hadn't exercised much, so she was too tired now.

At this time, Zheng Xin'er looked at Fang Yunyao, but was stunned:

"Yun Yao, why are you holding a stone in your hand?"

Fang Yunyao was immediately stunned when he saw that he was really holding a rectangular stone in his right hand:

"Hey, where's my phone?"

"I obviously have it in my hand!"

"How did you turn to stone!"

Qin Wufeng smiled dryly, "Miss Fang, I just said that you can't take pictures in Cat Valley, otherwise your phone will be stolen." ”

"Now you're finally convinced, aren't you?"

There are cute children's shoes complaining, saying that the story of the tanuki for the prince is too written, in fact, this is a big foreshadowing, and the clues of the cat valley are only part of it, so please be patient and read it, there will be surprises later, what's it?
