Chapter Twenty-Nine: Shang Wen's Letter

Min'er opened it in person, Min'er, this will be called affectionate, I sat at the table and took out the letter.

Min'a:

I thought I would never get a chance to write this letter to you, but the time came. In fact, many things that are happening now are no longer something that I can explain clearly, and I am leaving you this letter today just to tell you that everything I have done with Emperor E over the years has been carried out on the basis of protecting you, and we have never wanted to hurt you.

In the face of reality, you are really young, so it is impossible for you to know when many things happen, for example, my mother and your mother used to be a pair of very good sisters, for example, I have known Emperor E since childhood, and for example, I and Emperor E originally had a marriage contract...... You don't know all the things in the past.

Just like you have always wondered why I, as the eldest prince of Shangfu, am so unfavored in the mansion, in fact, the reason for this is very simple, because the current eldest lady of Shangshu Mansion is the murderer who killed my mother back then, and it was she who ruined everything between me and your sister Emperor E. At that time, you were not born, I didn't know Chihiro and Li Yu, the world was bright at that time, and I didn't think that I would lose my mother and Emperor E......

If you really want to know about the past, you can go to your mother, she can tell you everything that happened in the past.

Next, I will write what I know in this letter without reservation, which is a farce between the two of us. It's a bit long, so I'll start when I was thirteen.

When I was thirteen years old, my mother was killed and died on the way home from Zhou's house, and no one in the team survived that day, although there is no direct evidence, I also believe that it was not Zhou's doing, but my father didn't believe it, he always felt that his mother's death was inseparable from Zhou's house, so Shangshufu issued an order no longer to have anything to do with Zhou's house.

Later, under the intervention of my father and my second aunt (that is, the current lady of Zhoufu), my marriage with Emperor E was also canceled, and since then, my relationship with your sister Emperor E has shifted from the open to the dark, and we often meet at the temple fair in the city without telling the adults.

In the autumn of the same year, the Empress Dowager decreed that Chihiro would marry me, and Li Yu and Chihiro also entered my world since then, and everyone knew that I was good friends with Li Yu at that time, in fact, there were two more people in this, that is, your sister and Chihiro.

The first to find me was Li Yu, who hoped that he could continue to get along with Chihiro through my cover-up, and your sister and I also needed Chihiro's cover-up, so there was the dog hole you saw later. The four of us, in the name of gentlemen's friendship and deep boudoir friend, perfectly concealed the Queen Mother and my father.

In Chihiro-in, we who also like poetry, calligraphy and painting quickly became friends, but this beauty came to an abrupt end with Chihiro's suicide by jumping into a well.

After Chihiro's suicide, Li Yu and I turned against each other, and your sister also fell into the pain of her friend's suicide and couldn't get out, while I was sent to Tangshan by my father to practice martial arts under Xiao Lin. When I returned to Beijing, it was already five years later, and the news of your sister's engagement to Li Yu had already spread all over Kyoto.

I don't want your sister to marry Li Yu, so I ordered the drug in the guqin that year, I hope that you can disrupt your sister's marriage steps through this incident, and also use her coma to buy some time, everything is seamless, originally I only need a few more days to have a chance to let Li Yu withdraw from the marriage. But Emperor E gave you the guqin without knowing it, and it was this gift that completely ruined the future of me and Emperor E.

On the day your sister got married, I pretended to be a doctor and gave you an antidote, and I always thought that your sister was similar to Chihiro, until I saw you that day, and I began to marvel at the coincidence of this world. At that time, I kept thinking, if I can let Li Yu see you, then Emperor E will have a chance to return to me.

But there is no if in this world, it is already a sure fact that your sister and Li Yu are married. So, I've been waiting, waiting for you to grow up to eleven years old, waiting for you to grow old enough to be like Chihiro when she died, I deliberately tied you up and deliberately guided you to meet Li Yu. Emperor E and I both hoped to use you to attract all of Li Yu's attention, but we didn't expect Li Yu to get drunk that day and completely forget about you.

All kinds of things that will happen later, such as engagement, entering the palace, framing, etc., you must also be depressed Why the Queen Mother is so kind to you, because all of this was deliberately designed by me and Emperor E, and I won't go into details.

Also, don't blame your mother for the engagement, your mother didn't know my plan with Emperor E, and the reason why she agreed to our engagement was entirely for my mother and the innocence of the Zhou Mansion. In the past two years, I have frequently entered and exited the Zhou Mansion in the name of my future son-in-law, and in addition to teaching you martial arts, I have also secretly investigated the truth of the year with your mother. Now that all the evidence has pointed to the lady in charge of Shangshu Mansion, I only have one chance to overturn the case, and I believe that I will soon be able to return the innocence of Zhou Mansion and your mother.

Actually, at first, I did all this just to use you to help me regain Emperor E from Li Yu, but later, I learned a lot of things from Emperor E that shocked me and couldn't imagine. Although all this is unbelievable, I still choose to believe your sister, and I ask you to forgive me for not telling you this. Despite this, I still hope you can believe that Emperor E and I have our own hardships and missions, and everything we do is what this world should have happened.

Do you remember the deal we talked about two years ago? You are engaged to me, and in three years' time, I wish you the throne. Now that the three-year covenant is less than a year away, please trust me to keep my promise.

I don't need to worry about what I do, the person Emperor E likes is me, and the throne is not important to her, Li Yu married Emperor E, it is nothing more than revenge on me because of Chihiro's matter, and Emperor E and I have a way to make him like you. So, you just have to be ready to be your queen with peace of mind.

The rest of the inconvenience is too much, I will stop writing, I hope that the martial arts I teach you can help you protect yourself in the rest of your life, I wish you well.

Shang Clerk.
