Yun Xiao was taken aback when she heard this, she frowned slightly and said:

"Dad, why did you suddenly ask me that? Didn't I already say it, I believe in your decision, as long as it is beneficial to the Yun family, I am willing to do it, I will not regret it, please relax! It's just that...... The daughter understands that although the new prince is now at the center of the public opinion turmoil, you will not refuse this family business, so she will speak out in front of the emperor to help. ”

Yun Han nodded, his eyes full of appreciation:

"Yun Xiao, you are a sensible child, I am very pleased to have a daughter like you! Actually, your mother is right, I am a ruthless father, but under such circumstances at that time, I was also helpless to make such a decision......"

He sighed as he continued,

"If at that time, I agreed to Prince Min's proposal to marry, and now, people outside don't know how to talk about you, I'm afraid that in the future, no one will dare to come to the door to propose! But, then again, your mother blames me for blaming me, it's all right, before, when I sent you to the mountain, your mother was reluctant in every way, for a long time, she refused to talk to me, or later received your master's letter, it slowly got better, alas......"

Seeing this, Yun Xiao hurriedly persuaded: "Dad, the past has passed, don't think about it anymore, as long as our family is safe, besides, I will never tell my mother about these things you told me, and I will not in the future, Yun Xiao is willing to share his worries for his father!" ”

When Yun Hanshan heard this, his heart was hot: "Yun Xiao, you are right to do this, your mother is easy to think too much, sometimes, she doesn't tell her, but it is for her good!" Since you have the heart to share the worries of the Yun family, then, I will tell you the biggest secret of our Yun family! ”

Yun Xiao raised his eyebrows: "The Yun family's biggest secret?" What is it? ”

"You go and close the doors and windows of the study first, and then I'll tell you slowly." Yun Hanshan commanded.

"Yes!" Yun Xiao did as he said, turned around, and saw that Yun Hanshan had already taken a bronze wooden box, and he opened the box, and there was a token inside.

He handed the box to Yun Xiao's hand and said, "Yun Xiao, do you recognize this token?" ”

Yun Xiao looked at it carefully, frowned and replied, "I don't know!" It's just that, judging from the pattern created on this token, this token should be from the royal family. ”

Yun Hanshan nodded: "This is the military token that the emperor personally gave to our Yun family, which can mobilize Jin Lingwei, the most elite division of the emperor's close guards, and can mobilize nearly a thousand people at a time!" Not only that, but you can also use this token to go to the prison of the Criminal Department and take away any prisoner unconditionally, including death row prisoners! ”

When Yun Xiao heard this, he immediately felt that what he was holding in his hand was a hot potato. She looked at Yun Hanshan with a look of surprise, she really couldn't believe that her father would give such an important thing to herself.

"Daddy......"

Yun Hanshan knew what Yun Xiao wanted to say, he reached out and pressed Yun Xiao's wrist, looked at Yun Xiao with a deep gaze, and said:

"Yun Xiao, you are about to become the crown princess, the deep palace is dangerous, you must use this thing in the future, you must put it away, remember, you can only use this token once, and when you are in prison, you can't use it to save yourself! So, you must be cautious when using this token, have you remembered? ”

"Well, I remember." Yun Xiao nodded cautiously, and then covered the box.

After a while, Yun Xiao asked again, "Dad, how can our Yun family have such a token?" ”

Here, Yun Hanshan returned to his seat and sat down, and Fang said to Yun Xiao:

"Speaking of this token, you have to mention your grandfather. Although he has been dead for many years, his departure is still a mystery to this day. ”

His gaze suddenly became vain, like a yellow leaf dyed by time, in a few vicissitudes, he began to reminisce,

"Yun Xiao, you are studying with your master on the mountain, you must know that more than thirty years ago, our Great Xia Kingdom once destroyed a small country called Loulan, and the territory of Loulan is less than one-tenth of the territory of my Great Xia Kingdom, although Loulan is only a small land, but in the year of his destruction, there was a bloody storm in the palace of our Great Xia Kingdom."

Although Yun Xiao had read the history of the Xia Kingdom and knew about the small country of Loulan, she had never heard of the detailed process of the fall of Loulan, and the master told her that in the history books of the Xia Kingdom, there was only one sentence left for the fall of Loulan, that is:

In the autumn of the twenty-third year of Yongning, Loulan was in chaos in the west, and Emperor Xia Wu sent troops to quell the chaos and destroy Loulan.

So, Yun Xiao said with some surprise: "However, there is no record in the history books that the destruction of Loulan once had such a big blow to the palace of our Great Xia Kingdom!" ”

"Oh, the records in the history books are all for the superiors to see, and the superiors don't want to leave things in the history books for future generations to see, how can future generations easily know about them?! What do you think...... Aren't all historians afraid of death in order to record the truth?! Ordinary people may be deceived by these high-sounding words, but clear people should have their own judgment! ”

Yun Hanshan's words made a lot of sense, and Yun Xiao couldn't refute them.

Yun Xiao frowned and asked, "What's ...... What happened in the year of Loulan's demise? ”

Yun Hanshan let out a long sigh, and then said:

"The year of Loulan's demise, that is, the twenty-third year of Yongning, at that time, the current emperor had not yet ascended the throne, at that time, the princess of Loulan Kingdom married far away to our country, and married the emperor who was still the prince at that time, and wanted to marry Qin and Jin with my Great Xia Kingdom forever, but who would have thought that the princess of Loulan died unexpectedly on the night of the wedding, and Loulan Kingdom launched a war on the western border of our country."

He paused, then continued,

"And that's not the worst, the worst thing is that the person who investigated the death of Princess Loulan at the time said that all the evidence points to your grandfather, that is, my father, so he was forced to go to prison until the end of his life, and he couldn't get out of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment! However, he did not murder Princess Loulan, he was wronged! ”

Yun Xiao quietly listened to all this thrilling everything, the few words in the history books, behind it, there were so many unknown things.

However, thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be too many unreasonable things hidden in this matter, Yun Xiao couldn't help asking:

"Dad, how did Princess Loulan die?"

When Yun Hanshan heard this, his eyebrows moved slightly: "It is said that she died of poisoning." ”

"What about grandfather?"

Yun Hanshan sighed and said, "It was also poisoned to death......

Yun Xiao was stunned when he heard this: "Such a coincidence? So, could the person who poisoned Princess Loulan and the person who poisoned her grandfather be the same person? ”

Yun Hanshan nodded and explained, "It should be the same person, otherwise, the poison in the two of them cannot be exactly the same." It is precisely for this reason that our Yun family can clear the suspicion, otherwise, I am afraid that our Yun family will be sinners of the Great Xia Kingdom until now, and this token in your hand is actually a special compensation from the emperor to our Yun family! ”

"I see, this token is so difficult to come by." Yun Xiao couldn't help but glance at the bronze wooden box again, and then asked, "Dad, did you find any clues about your grandfather back then?" ”

Yun Hanshan shook his head, sighed, and said:

"At that time, Loulan suddenly launched a war against our country on the border, and your grandfather was rumored to have committed suicide in prison, and also left a suicide note of unknown origin, some people say that he committed suicide in order to protect the entire Yun family, and some people say that he committed suicide in fear of crime, and when it was found out that he was poisoned, and the poison was the same as that of Princess Loulan, it was already after Loulan was destroyed."

His voice was long and full of vicissitudes, with a faint helplessness,

"At that time, if I wanted to go back to the past to investigate, all the evidence of the crime had been completely destroyed by people with intentions, and there was no way to investigate it. Anyway, it all came to an end, and until now, I don't know who murdered him. ”

After hearing all this, Yun Xiao couldn't help but secretly retract his right hand.

"Dad, do you suspect that the person who murdered your grandfather is in the palace now?"

When Yun Hanshan heard this, he was slightly stunned, and after coming back to his senses, he said to Yun Xiao seriously:

"Yun Xiao, before there is conclusive evidence, you can't doubt it randomly, especially not the emperor at will. Just because he gave our Yun family such a special token, you can't think that he must have something to do with your grandfather's affairs. You must know that more than 30 years ago, the side that first provoked the war was the Loulan Kingdom, and at that time, we, the Great Xia Kingdom, did not think about destroying the Loulan Kingdom. If it weren't for the Loulan Kingdom's indiscretion, our Great Xia Kingdom would not have easily used force against him! After all...... Loulan is a land of projectiles, if my Great Xia Kingdom takes the initiative to attack him, it will inevitably leave a stigma of bullying the weak, which is contrary to the ancestral teachings left by our previous dynasties to establish a peaceful and prosperous era! ”

At this point, Yun Xiao had no choice but to suppress all the thoughts floating in his heart, and said cautiously:

"Yes, Yun Xiao has written it down, and when you speak in the future, you must be careful and considerate! It's just that...... I still haven't figured out one thing, according to the records in the history books, Loulan's national strength was not strong at that time, why did he want to launch such a big war on the border for the death of a princess? Wouldn't this reason be too far-fetched? ”

When Yun Hanshan heard this, he smiled a little incomprehensibly, and he said: "Of course, this reason is far-fetched, the princess is what they want to send and kiss, how can they cherish it?" This is just a pretext for them to start a border war. Loulan Kingdom is weak, and there is no foreign aid, how can he be the opponent of our Great Xia Kingdom?! ”

It seems even stranger to say this.
