Chapter 98: Inside Story

As soon as she thought of this, she immediately pretended to be casual and asked, "Mother, what happened to the fire back then?"

"Fire?" Nangong Yu was stunned for a moment, and then realized what she said, and suddenly cried a little, "Ning'er, it's my mother who is not good, my mother only cares about chanting and chanting Buddha by herself, and she has never taken care of you, so you are hurt so much......"

"Mother, I didn't mean that," Duanmu Youning hurriedly comforted me softly, "I just want to know, is it really King Zhan who saved me?"

Although Nangong Yu was sad that a flower-like daughter was burned into a ghost, after all, many years had passed, so he slowly calmed down, nodded and said, "Yes, it's him." But I didn't see it with my own eyes, I only know that you and Youya and a few of them entered the palace to play with the master, and then accidentally broke into an abandoned palace or the residence of the palace maid, I can't remember clearly. Then the house caught fire, and they fled as fast as they could, without any harm, but you were trapped in the fire and couldn't get out. Fortunately, King Zhan happened to pass by at that time, so he broke into the fire and rescued you. It's a pity that your face has been burned, and King Zhan was also hit in the leg by a burning pillar, and it is said that the injury is not light......"

It turned out that Dongling Guyun's leg injury came from this. But if that's all there is to it, what's not to mention, and why does he turn his face every time he talks about it?

If it was because one of his legs was burned out before, he kept it secret, but now that he is back to normal, why is he still reluctant to mention it?

Frowning and thinking for a moment, she then asked, "So how did that fire start, has anyone checked?"

"Checked," Nangong Yu nodded, "I heard the master say that it was caused by you and Youya and them being naughty and playing with fire, so although you burned your face, you can't blame anyone, and the master is still afraid that the emperor will blame you!"

Playing with fire? Isn't it the conspiracy of Duanmu Youya and others? Duanmu Youning sneered silently, and he would not pay attention to these things again.

"What about King Zhan?" Duanmu Youning asked, "At that time, I was still the crown princess, King Zhan saved my life, did the emperor reward him?"

"I don't know. Nangong Yu hesitated, "But I think there should be a reward, and there are not a few, because the emperor liked him very much when King Zhan was a child, and he simply spoiled him to the sky, if he wasn't the eldest son of the emperor, maybe he would have been made the crown prince a long time ago!"

"Oh?" Duanmu Youning was very surprised, because she only saw her past in the Hades Palace that day, and in her previous life, she only knew how to fly and dominate, and she didn't know about these things, "The emperor likes King Zhan very much?"

"Well," Nangong Yu nodded without hesitation, "At that time, I was already married to my master, although I didn't deliberately inquire, I had heard about the affairs of the court. I remember that I often heard the lord say that although there were already two princes and three princesses under the emperor's knees, but after Concubine Rou gave birth to King Zhan, he was very fond of the pink-carved jade son. His Royal Highness the Partial Prince is another ......"

Tanglin Linfeng does not learn and has no skills, lingering in the flowers, it is indeed not liked by Tanglin Luoxi. If it weren't for Duanmu Wenyao's mediation over the years, he would have been unable to keep his position as the crown prince for a long time - naturally, in the end, he failed to become the king of a country, which shows that the sentence is right: it's not yours, it's not yours after all, and you can't grab it. It's yours, it's yours after all, and you can't go away with a bang.

However, Duanmu Youning was very curious about Donglin Luoxi's attitude, and couldn't help frowning and asked: "The newborn baby naturally can't see if he has the ability to be the king of a country, so why does the emperor favor King Zhan so much? Is it because he is handsome?"

Nangong Yu couldn't help laughing: "Naturally not, at least not all, but I think it should be the relationship between Aiwu and Wu." ”

Duanmu Youning is also a smart person who can see through at all, and his eyes lit up: "You mean because of Concubine Rou?"

"I guess so. Nangong Yu nodded, "You have already seen Concubine Rou, you must also see that she has a gentle temperament and a beautiful appearance, no man will dislike such a woman, and the emperor is the same." Therefore, although Concubine Rou is just the widow of the emperor of the previous dynasty, the current emperor has no dislike at all, but loves her very much, and she is obedient, which can be described as a temporary favor. Even now, the emperor has been favored by Concubine Rou for a long time. Therefore, the emperor's love for King Zhan is only because of Concubine Rou. ”

As soon as these words came out, Duanmu Youning was even more surprised, and was so surprised that he couldn't speak: It turns out that Concubine Rou is the concubine of the emperor of the previous dynasty? Isn't that the body of a broken flower and a willow? But Tanglin Luoxi not only didn't care, but loved her so much, it seems that the emperor will also have true feelings......

"No," Duanmu Youning shook his head suddenly, "It's true that the emperor is very fond of Concubine Rou, but how can I think he is not as good as you say about King Zhan......?"

"That's why I just said 'King Zhan was a child'," Nangong Yu smiled, and suddenly deliberately lowered his voice, "But even now, it's not that the emperor wants to alienate King Zhan, but that King Zhan took the initiative to alienate the emperor." ”

Duanmu was puzzled: "Why?"

"It's said to be because of a woman. Nangong Yu's voice was lowered, for fear that Dongling Guyun would hear it, "A few years ago, King Zhan fell in love with a woman, but the emperor did not agree to the woman entering King Zhan's mansion, and King Zhan once quarreled with the emperor for that woman. Later, the woman became depressed and became ill, and soon died. King Zhan thought that the emperor had killed her, so he became estranged from the emperor. ”

Hearing these few words in his ears, Duanmu Youning immediately felt a heart that was stuffy and unspeakably uncomfortable!

Everyone knows that Dongling Guyun has always hated contact with women, and she thought it was her nature. Now I know that it is just because he has lost the most beloved woman, so he has completely despaired of love, right? From this, it can be seen that what kind of status that woman has in Dongling Guyun's heart, I am afraid that no one can replace it......

Not wanting Nangong Yu to see anything, she gritted her teeth and suppressed the dull pain in her heart and said, "I didn't expect that the seemingly indifferent and ruthless King Zhan still has such a side of affection and righteousness. It's just that I don't know which young lady is so good that she can make him fall in love......"

"It's good if it's a young lady from any family!" Nangong Yu smiled bitterly, as if she was embarrassed, "It's a pity that that woman was born in a Qinglou, although she claims to be an artist and not a woman, but after all, she comes from a filthy place." The emperor also had high hopes for King Zhan, how could he allow a woman from a Qinglou to tarnish his reputation? It was because he had always resolutely opposed it that King Zhan was resentful. But this matter has since become an absolute taboo, and no one dares to mention it in front of the emperor or King Zhan, otherwise there will be endless troubles. ”

Qinglou must be a poor person again. Duanmu Youning pursed his lips, and the discomfort in his heart became more and more intense: "Then do you know what the woman's name is?"

"It seems to be ......" Nangong Yu thought, obviously his memory was already a little blurry, "I remember it was called ...... Ah, yes, it's called Xue Jingyue!"

It seems that this woman has already seen through the world, and knows that no matter what time she is born, in the end it will be just a mirror flower and a moon......

At this moment, only a sound of footsteps was heard, and Nangong Yan and the others had already entered the room. Seeing Duanmu Youning, the three of them glanced at each other tacitly, and Nangong Yan stepped forward and said, "Ning'er is also here, have we disturbed your mother and daughter talking?"

Duanmu stood up and smiled indifferently: "No, I'm just here to say hello to my mother." It just so happened that I didn't sleep well last night, so the three aunts sat with my mother, and I went back to sleep first. ”

Nangong Yan immediately smiled: "Okay, no problem, you go and rest, my sister has us to take care of it, and we will ensure that nothing goes wrong!"

Duanmu nodded and turned to leave. Nangong Yan smirked a few times at her back, and when she turned back, her face was already full of kindness: "Sister, the clothes I made for the little boy have been completed, you can take a look......"

Although it was true that he was a little tired from his injury, Duanmu Youning, who was lying on the bed, did not feel sleepy, and Nangong Yu's words kept echoing in his ears.

It turns out that there has always been another woman in Dongling Guyun's heart? And that woman is his unforgettable lover? It's ridiculous that she has always thought that Dongling Guyun is different to her, so it turns out that this self-inflicted amorous drama will actually be staged on herself?

So, was the fire related to Xue Jingyue back then? Could it be that it was because of this that Dongling Guyun was extremely taboo for others to mention that incident?

But what is the relationship between the two? She didn't even ask whether Xue Jingyue's death was after or before the fire, and it was better not to speculate......

I wanted to pretend that I didn't care, but as long as I thought that Dongling Guyun had always been obsessed with Xue Jingyue, and even didn't hesitate to fall out with the emperor for her, Duanmu Youning felt that his breath was blocked in his heart, so it was not uncomfortable, and his face was even more frighteningly pale.

Forget it! Is there anyone in Dongling Guyun's heart, and what does it have to do with her? She was entrusted by Min Feiyang, and at the same time, she was involved with him in order to repay Dongling Guyun's life-saving grace back then. Now that his legs have recovered, there will be no more contact with him......

A sharp sharp pain suddenly surged into his heart, Duanmu You's heart fluttered, and he unconsciously covered his heart with his hands, and a trace of bright red blood had overflowed from the corner of his lips, dyeing the white veil of the mask red!

Yan Xunhuan had already seen that her situation was wrong, and she had been lying at the window for a long time, but she didn't dare to break in casually. At this moment, he saw the blood on the white gauze with sharp eyes, and was immediately startled, and jumped in from the window: "Girl, are you injured?!"

"I didn't ...... It's okay......" Duanmu Youning suppressed the surging qi and blood, "The injury is not serious, I ...... It will be good to use your luck and pranayama, you ...... Go and rest ......."

"How tired am I?" Yan Xunhuan frowned anxiously, "Girl, I'll help you heal ......"

"No, I'm really fine......" Duanmu Youning sat cross-legged with his support, "If you don't worry, just guard me, you don't have to ...... Help me heal ......."

Yan Xunhuan nodded helplessly: "Yes, don't worry, girl, I will never leave!"

Duanmu Youning nodded and stopped talking, but finally put those things aside for the time being, and healed his injuries first......
