Chapter 81: The Past

A few days later, a plain curtain carriage drove out of the back door of the Yasukuni Mansion in a low-key manner, and it was Qingyu and Lin Jiayin, Ah Xiang and Cai Ling who sat in the car.

Qing Yu has become the young lady of the Guogong Mansion, in addition to Xiao Ah Xiang, who had been with her before the master and servant, the Li family also arranged for her a number of smart maids, all day long to stretch out their hands to eat, go to the garden to enjoy a flower and a tail.

She really couldn't get used to this kind of rice worm life, and she was worried about her shops, so she had to beg her stepmother to let her go out to inspect, but the second lady detained her on the grounds that she wanted to prepare a wedding dress and did not agree to her leaving the house.

In fact, Qingyu knew in her heart that there was a lot of discussion about her identity and marriage outside, and her stepmother was afraid that she would go out and hear bad things and be sad. She can understand her stepmother's painstaking efforts, but she still has to do her own thing. Escaping is not the solution to the problem, gossip is terrible, but she has never been afraid, not to mention that she is now Lin Qingyu, so she has the entire Yasukuni Mansion as a backer! Qingyu secretly felt proud again.

Early this morning, she ordered Yuan Yi to wait for her at the back door, and then sneak out and back again! However, Qingyu looked at Lin Jiayin beside her and rolled her eyes helplessly. As soon as she went out, she was discovered by Lin Jiayin, and as a result, there were three more people in the carriage......

Just when Qing Yu and the others sneaked out of the mansion, the Duke of Yasukuni had already received the news, and in the end, the old man just smiled and ordered the guards in the mansion to secretly protect and not disturb.

At this time, in the Yun'an Palace, Jiang Yu and King Yun'an were both sitting at the table with serious faces, and Jiang Chen opposite them was also serious.

Jiang Chen was seriously injured and unconscious since that day, and was placed in the backyard of the palace by Jiang Yu. After Jiang Chen woke up, he did not rush to Jiang Yu to ask the truth about his father's death, but calmed down and recuperated in the palace. In the past few days, he has thought about the events of his father's life, but he feels full of doubts.

At that time, he was still young, and he only knew that the family lived in the Yun'an Palace. His father Jiang Haolin was very respectful to the old Yun'an King, although the old man looked strict, but he was very good to him, if it wasn't for his father telling him that it was his grandfather, he would have thought it was his own grandfather.

There is an uncle in the palace, who is the same age as his father and is a brother, and he also loves him very much. Uncle Cousin's family has a younger brother who is a year younger than him, and they study together on weekdays, and Uncle Cousin is very busy but always finds time to teach them martial arts.

It was the most peaceful time of his life, and it was also the happiest time. The only fly in the ointment is that his beautiful mother is always cold to her, and his father always says that it is because his mother is cold, but in fact, he loves him in his heart, although he is a little lost, but compared to his cousin who does not have his mother by his side, he still feels very happy.

Later, my grandfather died of illness, and my uncle succeeded to the throne, although my uncle became the prince, he was still very friendly, and from time to time he would play chess and drink with his father to talk about current political affairs.

thought that life would continue to be so happy, but recently he found that his father, who had always been gentle and elegant, began to drink heavily all day long, and even spoke ill of his mother, and would hug him and cry when his mother left.

When he asked why, his father refused to confide in him, only secretly sad. He was worried about his father's health, so he went to ask his cousin to explain his father, but the generous cousin uncle was reluctant to go. In the end, Uncle Cousin finally couldn't stand his crying and went to his father's room.

He was overjoyed, thinking that his father would gradually get better.

Later, when his mother heard the news, she hurriedly entered the room and ordered someone to take him away who was guarding the door, but he struggled and refused, and only saw his father struggling to throw the wine jug in front of his uncle with anger on his face.

If he had known that it would be the last time he would see his father, he would never have left until he died.

When he returned to his father's room again, the first thing he saw was his father lying in his uncle's arms, covered in blood, and his mother was standing aside with a frightened face and a pale face, shaking her head incessantly.

He didn't know what was going on, but he knew for sure that the father who loved him could no longer smile at him lovingly.

He violently pushed away his sad cousin and took his father's body from his arms, "Dad, what's wrong with you?" I'm Chen'er, why don't you speak?"

"Chen Er,......" King Yun'an called with difficulty.

"Uncle Cousin, what's wrong with my father! Didn't I ask you to explain him, why is that? ”

"I, alas! Chen'er, it's my uncle I'm sorry for you, I didn't expect it to be like this......"

"Lord Wang, please leave first, I will explain it clearly to Chen'er!" You Ning on the side spoke.

Seeing this, King Yun'an had no choice but to wave his sleeves and leave, but he didn't know that Youling would distort the facts, and he didn't expose it afterwards, but just arranged a lot of manpower around Jiang Yu, which was also the reason why Jiang Yu had been assassinated for many years without incident.

A child should not bear so much, and he owes it to Chen'er......

Uncle Tang had no choice but to leave, but his mother told him a big secret - it turned out that his father was the son of his grandfather Jiang Defeng.

From his mother's mouth, he learned the story of the previous generation.

Jiang Defeng, who was still a nobody, was far away from his hometown and devoted himself to seeking fame from Rong, and not long after he left, Nangong Qing, who was his childhood sweetheart, found out that she was pregnant. Nangong Qing, an unmarried girl with Yunying, was humiliated everywhere with her pregnancy, and was finally kicked out by the clansmen. When Jiang Defeng became a general and came back to look for her, he couldn't find her.

Later, Jiang Defeng was favored by the county lord and was given marriage, and the emperor's order was difficult to disobey, so he had to marry the county lord and have a son. Later, their son died in the war, and the county lord hated Jiang Defeng for being ruthless and not saving his son, and soon died of depression. Soon after the death of the county lord, Emperor Longqing thanked Jiang Defeng for his loyalty, so he changed the name of his most beloved youngest son to Jiang Yunxing, wrote it into the Jiang family tree, recognized Jiang Defeng as his father and sent him to his death.

For a courtier, this is the supreme honor, and I don't know how many people envy this honor, but it is also this honor that makes Jiang Defeng miserable.

Because in the near future, Jiang Defeng suddenly discovered Nangong Qing's traces, he secretly found Nangong Qing, and he didn't want her to give birth to a brilliant son for him, that is, Jiang Haolin.

Nangong Qing was full of joy, she had been working hard for many years, and finally waited for her lover, she thought that she and her son could finally have a legitimate identity, but she didn't want that the man she loved to the bone marrow wanted to declare his biological son as a nephew to everyone.

She should have forgiven him, she could not blame him for marrying someone else, but she couldn't forgive that man for not recognizing his parents and having no responsibility......

Nangong Qing didn't last long, she was already terminally ill when Jiang Defeng found her, and now she choked in her heart, and finally passed away resentfully. And Jiang Haolin was taken back to the palace and became the nephew of King Yun'an.

……

Therefore, when Uncle Tang learned the truth, he was afraid that his father would compete for the throne with him, so he would kill his father! This is the truth that Jiang Chen learned from his mother's mouth.

At that time, he was young, and he believed whatever his mother said, and he saw his father throwing a teacup at his cousin, and it was a fact that they were not in harmony.

But now that I think about it, Uncle Lai Tang was already the king of Yun'an at that time, even if his father was his grandfather's own son, he could only live as a nephew. My father has always known his identity, but he and his uncle didn't have a dislike or even a good relationship before, why did they suddenly have a conflict? My mother was also in the house at the time, what was my cousin doing when she killed my father?

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen panicked in his heart, he suddenly had the idea of running away, he had been blinded by hatred for so many years, and sent people to assassinate Uncle Tang many times without success, and then assassinated Jiang Yu many times with the intention of making him lose his loved ones, and now Uncle Tang and Jiang Yu were sitting opposite him, he actually wanted to escape!

Reason told him that what should come will always come, and what is the truth about his father's tragic death many years ago, he has been pursuing it for many years, isn't it!

"Chen'er, I haven't seen you for many years, you've grown up!" King Yun'an sighed.

“……”

"Looks like my brother......"

"The prince doesn't need to be hypocritical, I just want to know what happened back then?" Jiang Chen's cold and hard voice interrupted King Yun'an's words.

Jiang Yu clenched his fists and said indifferently: "Aren't you capable of finding out the truth now?" Or are you afraid to look it up?"

"You ......" Jiang Chen was furious, but he didn't know what to say to fight back.

King Yun'an finally sighed when he looked at Jiang Chen, whose eyes were scarlet, and said slowly: "Now that you have grown up, it is time to face that incident." You sit down, and I'll talk to you slowly. ”

Jiang Chen sat down quietly, but he was actually panicked in his heart. The closer he got to the truth in King Yun'an's mouth, the more he felt a chill......

"Actually, your mother Youling is my little junior sister," King Yun'an glanced at Jiang Chen, and when he saw that there was suspicion in his eyes, he continued.

"I studied art with her in Lingshan for five years,......"

King Yun'an said very slowly, as if he really returned to the scene at that time.

For a whole hour, despite the embarrassment of the process, Jiang Chen couldn't help it no matter how many times he wanted to leave with his sleeves brushed up, he wanted to listen to the so-called truth.

"Enough!" Jiang Chen finally couldn't hold back and roared angrily, "Did you lie to me?" It's impossible, I don't believe it, I'm going to hear her tell me personally! ”

Jiang Chen rushed out quickly, although the wounds on his body were broken open, and the clothes on his body were quickly stained red with blood, he didn't care, he wanted to see his mother to ask what happened back then!

"Big brother!" Jiang Yu called, but Jiang Chen didn't listen to anything at the moment, and just rushed out of the palace, Jiang Yu looked at King Yun'an, who was still drinking tea, so he had to sigh and command to the void: "Protect him." ”

"Yes, master."

I saw the treetops shake a few times, and then calm again in an instant.

Jiang Chen grabbed a horse in the backyard of the palace and went straight to the small courtyard in the north of the city, where he and his mother have been living since his father died.

"Phew!"

Jiang Chen came quickly, and in a moment he had already landed in front of the door. He looked at the "Jiang Mansion" on the plaque, and suddenly did not dare to take a step forward. Jiang Chen closed his eyes, and finally made up his mind and stepped in.
