Chapter 119: Poison

The Yanbo Street next to the Parhan Palace was empty, and he stood gently in front of the "Ye Mansion" that had just been built not long ago, stopping and contemplating.

After a while, Hegui walked out of the mansion.

"How's it going today?"

He Gui shook his head and said, "The little boy is still depressed, closed doors, and doesn't want to see people." ”

Gently sighed and said: "It's hard for him, it suddenly turned upside down overnight, and it will take some time for anyone to do it." It's just that time is running out, the battle between us and the blue sea is already imminent, and if Childe can't know his position yet, it will be tricky at that time. ”

"You're right. I heard that the big butler is going to Dadu soon, and we really don't have much time to wait like this. ”

"Where are the leaders of the other three tribes now?"

"After the Blood Flame King burned Linzhou City, he returned to Dadu with his men and horses, and it was estimated that it would be there in seven or eight days. I heard that the Golden Blade King and the Great Butler had merged north of the Sickle Valley, two or three days later than the Blood Flame King. There is no news from the Eagle Clan, saying that the Eagle King has gone to pay homage to the Eagle God Monument, and it will take some time to go back and forth. ”

"It's been a few years since the leaders of the three tribes gathered in Shakoye. Especially the Eagle King, if it weren't for the return of the prince this time, she would not be willing to come. ”

Hegui was born in the Eagle Clan, and said with a smile: "The patriarch has been reluctant to have a son all these years, so she is a little cold to the big housekeeper, but her thoughts about Imulan are the same as the big housekeeper." ”

While the two were talking, Herin suddenly ran out of the house and said excitedly, "Second master, son, please come over and talk." ”

Wenwen's eyes lit up, and he smiled and said, "Good, good, good." If he's willing to see it, it's good. ”

He Gui was puzzled: "Why did the son suddenly change sex?" ”

Herin replied: "It was Sister Heping who said a few words to Childe when she went in early in the morning with breakfast, and Childe sat alone for a while after eating, and then said that she wanted to see the second master." ”

"He Ping? What did she say? ”

"It's the first time I've heard my sister mention my life experience, but I didn't know she was so pitiful. She said that she did not have a father when she was a child, but was brought up by her mother. At that time, the family was poor, and my mother barely survived as an embroiderer, but fortunately, my mother's uncle came to help from time to time, and she also loved Sister Heping very much, as a granddaughter. Until one day, when her uncle died, her mother was heartbroken and took her to the spirit and said, "This is not your grandfather, but your father." The world could not tolerate me doing such a deceitful thing with him, so he did not dare to speak out until he died, for fear that we would be humiliated. But if it weren't for your uncle and grandfather, you and I would have starved to death. Mother is telling you this today because she wants you to understand that you are not a person who is loved by your parents, and she also hopes that you will not hate your father for hiding it from you all the time. ”

Gently turned his head and asked, "Hegui, do you know these things?" ”

He Gui shook his head: "This child has a heavy mind, I don't know this, I just saw her acting steadily, so I took her back as a maid, I didn't expect to have such a life experience." ”

Wen Wen asked again: "Then what did Heping say after listening to her mother's words?" ”

"My sister said, I don't hate my parents for hiding the truth, but I'm not afraid that the world will know about my background. People in the world only have the leisure to poke and poke a little bit after dinner, and when my mother and I were cold and starved and almost died, did they have any pity? Now it is my father who loves me, whether it is my uncle or grandfather, he loves me, and I will be filial to him, which is justified. I only regret that he didn't tell me too soon, and that he didn't hear me call him father before he died. ”

He Gui nodded frequently when he heard it, quite approvingly.

Herin continued: "After my sister finished speaking, she persuaded her son again, how can there be so many harmonious and beautiful things in the world. Childe was born noble and walked well, and there was nothing to be ashamed of, even if he now knew that he was an Imuran. Although I am a native of Cangwu and have heard that the Imurans are cruel since I was a child, if I had not been adopted by the Imurans, I would have lost my life a long time ago. Should I be grateful or hated to the Imurans? The son listened to it for a long time without speaking, and then asked the slave to come to the second master. ”

Gently sighed: "It's an understanding child, Hegui, you are very well trained, it's very appropriate to keep her by your side." I'll go in now, so as not to keep my son waiting. ”

Gently stepped into the "Ye Mansion" and paced into Su Xiaochen's room. It happened that He Ping came out of it, met Wen Wen and whispered: "Second master, the son is sitting inside." ”

Gentle and understanding, he approached the room and took a closer look, Su Xiaochen had changed into a silver leaf shirt, put on a silver lin's crown, and was sitting at the round table. When he saw Wen Wen coming in, he stood up and bowed his hand, and bowed his hand according to the identity of a junior, which was clearly the etiquette of the southerners.

Gently praised: "The son is well-dressed, handsome and elegant, and he is really dignified." ”

"This is a gift from the Holy Father, and my uncle personally handed over to me the silver lin's crown. It's the first time I've worn it today, and I don't know ...... Not for the last time. Su Xiaochen smiled faintly, unable to hide his disappointed expression.

"Childe likes it, there's nothing you can't wear. The old man has lived on Nanhua Island for a long time, and these Nanren clothes are also used to wearing. Wen Wen was relieved to see that he was willing to speak to himself, and he didn't want to push too hard, so he followed him.

"Uncle Wen, I have been thinking about it repeatedly in the past few days, thinking about the things that my husband told me. Some of them I know, some of them don't, and it's not good to think about. ”

"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”

"Uncle You once said that knowing is better than not knowing, but knowing half is better than not knowing at all."

Smiled gently: "It is worthy of Master Muyun, it makes a lot of sense." ”

"There are some things that I can choose to do or not to do after I know them, but I can't hide my ears and avoid listening because I am afraid of choosing, that is cowardice."

He nodded softly and said: "Childe can think like this, the old man is really relieved." So, what do you want to know about the old man today? ”

Su Xiaochen held the teapot in front of him, poured a cup for Wen Wen, and said, "What I want to know most is how Uncle You passed away." He had asked me to bring a letter to Princess Silverspring, in which he vaguely mentioned that he seemed to know that he was dying soon, and that he was related to the princess. ”

"It seems that Gongzi is also aware that although Master Muyun died of illness last year, all cause and effect have been doomed since twenty-five years ago."

"Twenty-five years ago? What does this mean? ”

Gently and respectfully took the teacup, and asked:

"Childe, have you heard of it, Xianyun Wuwei Saucer?"

"Naturally, I heard that on Nanhua Island that day, I asked my husband to make a dish for me."

"It just doesn't taste good, does it?"

“…… Maybe I'm not used to eating. Gentle and gentle, "Childe is benevolent, in fact, it doesn't taste bad, but the old man has moved his hands and feet, and deliberately put the five seasonings together, which is naturally difficult to swallow." ”

"Why did my husband do this?"

"Because the mackerel is poisonous."

Su Xiaochen was taken aback, "Poisonous? You're saying that catfish are poisonous?! ”

"Exactly, it's just that the toxicity of this fish is very slow and very small, and it will take decades to eat it before it will die of poison, and the bite that Childe ate that night is not a big problem. But after all, it's not a good thing, so the old man did his hands and feet, so that the son would stop eating. ”

"But I've heard Xiao Tong say that this catfish is something that everyone eats in the blue sea......"

This is the secret of their blue sea, the poison of this fish is only harmful to men, but it is beneficial and harmless to women, so the women of the blue sea live a long life and the men die early. After this secret was originally discovered by the founding Ming Emperor Zhu Lanchun, it was only passed on to the daughter who inherited the throne, and then passed on to the current Ming Emperor Zhu Yutang, who should not even know this secret, and the second generation of Ming Emperor Zhu wanted to make an unbalanced policy against Mu Yun's family, so he secretly told her. Gongzi said that she hadn't heard Princess Qingyang mention it, but she didn't know about it, but she didn't want to deliberately hide it. After all, she and her son are in love, and this is still clear to the old man. ”

Su Xiaochen's face turned red when he was said, pretending not to hear the sentence that the two were happy, and asked, "What is this imbalance?" ”

"Mu Yun's strategy of Jinshan back then buried the soul of my Imulan army of 60,000 people, and also emptied the treasury of the blue sea, and the second generation of Ming Emperor at that time actually understood Mu Yun's Tao in his heart. coincided with the second year when Mu Yunduo took his two sons to Bihai, Emperor Ming took the opportunity to look at the faces of Mu Yunyou and Mu Yunzuo, and felt that Mu Yunyou was good at scheming but not good at deciding, and Mu Yunzuo was good at deciding and not scheming, so he moved his mind to marry Zhu Yuxiao to Mu Yunyou, saying that it was to thank Mu Yun's family for his advice, but in fact, he wanted to assassinate Mu Yunyou. She thinks that as long as Mu Yunyou is poisoned, firstly, it can break the situation of the Muyun clan brothers conspiring together in the future, and secondly, according to Mu Yunzuo's stubborn temperament, Emperor Wen will not be able to tolerate him. In this way, the dragon and the tiger are fighting above the court, and the sky will be chaotic. This is the imbalance. Later, Zhu Yuxiao lived up to her mother's trust, and it took twenty-four years to finally poison Mu Yunyou with a fairy cloud five-flavor dish made of mackerel. ”

Su Xiaochen expected to hear a lot of secrets today, but he still couldn't help crying, "Uncle You...... Uncle You really passed away because of Princess Silverspring...... But Mu Yun's wisdom is the best in the world, didn't the old lady Mu Yunduo see the Zhu family's unbalanced strategy back then?

Gently smiled: "Mu Yunduo is indeed the smartest strategist in the world, although the Zhu clan is good at the art of contemplating the mind, but when it comes to strategy, in the eyes of his Mu Yun clan, it is like child's play, how can he not be recognized." It's just that people in the world can't escape the idea of greed and hatred, Mu Yunduo had his own selfish calculations at that time, and relied on his wife Li Taijun to be a master of drug knowledge, so he had the courage to let Mu Yunyou marry Zhu Yuxiao. It's just that he didn't expect that in the twenty years after his death, the Zhu family used the poison of the fish to be invisible, and Li Taijun couldn't find out the reason at all. ”

"No wonder...... No wonder I was in the Taishi's Mansion that day, Uncle You asked the princess to take the Xianyun five-flavor dish and eat it with me, but the princess refused. It turns out that there is such a reason. It can be seen from the family letter left by Uncle You that he knew all this, why didn't he hide and let Princess Yinquan poison him to death? ”
