Chapter 340: Twin Falls
In the long history of the Hosdu Empire, there is one of the most unbearable pasts, which is the wound that has accumulated in the hearts of the successive kings and the people of Hosdu, and it is also a shame that is difficult to wash.
More than 100 years ago, when the Yuan Kingdom was at its strongest, the Khosdu Empire, which had fallen into internal chaos, was almost paralyzed, and as a result, several states and counties were forcibly taken away by the Yuan State one after another, and tens of thousands of Khosdu people became miserable guests in a foreign land.
It is ridiculous that the people of the Yuan Kingdom did not care about these lands, and the several states and counties that were blocked by the Duo Kingdom actually let it go, leaving only a few bordering their own country; And those who originally lived in this land, they were robbed of their homes, lost their homes, and became vagrants with nowhere to go.
This hatred is deformed.
The Yuan Kingdom has little impression of this history, and the Hosdu Empire has been waiting for an opportunity to take revenge with hatred for a hundred years, such as Baishan, such as Helian Mingyan, they are all people who are bound by this hatred.
As well as, the sisters who say goodbye and say that they are sorrowful.
The previous head of the Mughta family was a man who did not want to be restrained, and during the few years he lived in the Yuan Kingdom, he met the love of his life, and gave birth to twin daughters, Li Wu and Qing Sorrow, who took their mother's surname. Unfortunately, when Mugeta, the handsome head of the family, returned to China, he lost the freedom to choose his life.
After the death of his beloved wife, he returned to his homeland with his two daughters, but he did not expect that these two daughters were pushed to the forefront because of half of the enemy blood, and all the elders were very dissatisfied with his move to unite with the people of the Yuan Kingdom, and they were very angry.
Immediately afterwards, there was a painful scene that Helian Ming could not forget for the rest of his life.
"The House of Elders insisted on letting Li Wei and Light Sorrow go to the Yuan Kingdom to be spies, in order to prove their allegiance to Hosto, and in order to control them, they also specially found Wu Zhu Luogu. At that time, we were all children who had never been in the world, and we didn't know what we were going to face when we parted, just because we were going to cry because we would never see each other again. About half a year after Liwu and Qingchou left, my father secretly took me to Yuanguo, and in Anzhou, we met a person, and soon, that person became me and Liwu and Qingchou's master, the only master in our lives. ”
Helian Ming, who was freed from distant memories, had an inexplicable expression, like grief and pain, but with a faint smile full of reminiscence.
"Master told us a lot about the Yuanguo, history, culture, legends, and the mysterious rivers and lakes of Zhongzhou...... Perhaps it was then that I developed a deep affection for the Yuan Kingdom. ”
Yan Liwu didn't quite understand why Helian Mingyan wanted to talk so far away, until Helian Mingyan mentioned that he recognized the master in the Yuan Kingdom, and he had a vague premonition - this person would inevitably affect Helian Ming's annihilation deeply, and it was inextricably related to the fate of King Qinglian and the twin sister Yan Qingchou.
"Anzhou ......" is different from Yan Li's concern, Wen Moqing pouted with the familiar place name between his teeth, and suddenly lowered his eyebrows, and his tone seemed to be trying to suppress a certain emotion, "The person you are talking about is also related to me, right?" ”
Helian Ming's body was shocked, and he nodded slowly after a while.
"Master mentioned your name before I met you, so to speak, I knew you a long, long time ago, and you didn't know my existence at that time."
Wen Moqing's hand has been clasped tightly with Yan Li's hand, and it is easy to catch his slight trembling. A certain surprise speculation formed in his mind, Yan Liwu slowly looked up at Wen Moqing, and when he met his gaze, he clearly saw the helplessness in those black and white eyes, and how he was willing to accept the resistance of reality.
Based on all kinds of performances and the details of Helian Mingyan's words, even Yan Liwu can roughly guess who this master is.
was unexpected, but I knew that this matter had already revealed a slight clue.
When Wen Moqing and Yan Liwu met the surviving female soldiers in Anzhou, Aunt Mu once said that General Sang Ying was very close to some mysterious foreigners, and according to Aunt Mu's description of the appearance of those people, it was very likely that they were from Hosdu.
Taking a deep breath, Yan Liwu spoke instead of Wen Moqing: "General Sang is a native of Zhongzhou, how could she be involved in the sinister conspiracy of your Hosdu Kingdom?" ”
Helian Ming smiled bitterly, and did not deny the speculation of Yan Li's worries: "Master is indeed a native of Zhongzhou, a citizen of Dayuan, and she also fought bloodily for Dayuan. But what did Obuchi give her? What tormented Master in those years was not illness or hidden grievances, but the pain of being ruined and losing a loved one. It is difficult to put myself in Master's shoes without this incident, but I only know that every night Master would hold the spiritual position and weep bitterly, just like any wife in the world who has lost her husband. ”
Although Helian Ming did not say it explicitly, the meaning was already very obvious.
The female general who led the women's army to fight against foreign enemies and defended one side of the town has been running around for half her life to protect the land of Dayuan and the people, but in the end she lost everything and died a good death......
Sang Ying did have reason to hate the imperial court.
It's just that her actions are too extreme.
Wen Moshu, who had not spoken for a long time, let out a low sigh: "Duke Mugeta's master refers to General Sang Yingsang?" I thought General Sang was long gone. The old case of the women's army was handed over to the fourth brother Mo Zheng for retrial, although the case was overturned for General Sang and General Tong after the investigation, but the deceased people have not come back, and this incident once made me feel very lost. I didn't expect things to be as ...... as we thought."
The female generals who were misunderstood and wronged, and the female generals who were remembered and regretted after being rehabilitated, are these all fake?
So what is true? What is credible?
Wen Moshu vaguely understood what Sang Ying's position was in this long-planned conspiracy, a sense of loss permeated his heart, and he inadvertently looked at Yan Liwu, and when he saw Yan Liwu and Wen Moqing's hands clasped with ten fingers, he suddenly felt a little more sour and painful.
There are too many things, he only has the qualifications to be a bystander, and he can't participate in them at all.
"General Sang's matter is aside, what I want to ask is King Qinglian." After a short silence, Wen Moqing changed the topic and still stared at the Qinglian King, "Jun Bai has followed the Qinglian King for many years, and he has secretly concealed many secrets about the Qinglian King, including the true identity of the Qinglian King, the intention of approaching the first emperor, and the truth of his death. However, Jun Bai once inadvertently revealed that the Qinglian King seemed to care about the first emperor very much, I think, this is why the Qinglian King has been lurking by the side of the first emperor for many years without any unfavorable actions, and even endured grievances until he died, right? ”
If it weren't for the amicable atmosphere of the conversation, the tone of the interrogation would be like interrogating a prisoner, and the content would go beyond what should be a meeting between the two countries.
Helian Mingyan probably felt a little depressed, and after a period of too boring questions and answers and reminiscences, he held the teacup and sipped the fragrance of tea a little bit, and was quiet for a long time before answering the question raised by Wen Moqing.
"In fact, it was not only the sorrow that was sent to the side of the former Yuan Emperor, but also the light sorrow, and the purpose of approaching the Yuan Emperor was only to inquire and report the situation in the Yuan country, but later, everything was out of the original arrangement."
According to the plan of the House of Elders of the Hosdu Empire, after the sisters of Yan Liwu and Yan Qingwu arrived in the Yuan Kingdom, they needed to blend into the palace as palace maids and maids, and inquire about information through the mouths of the harem concubines, and the change in the plan originated from the appearance of Sang Ying.
After the women's army was stigmatized as a rebel, Sang Ying hid outside Anzhou City, and by chance met Helian Mingyan's father and daughter, who disguised themselves as merchants, and further met the two Yan sisters. At that time, the sisters of the Yan family learned some fur kung fu at the request of the Elders' House, and Sang Ying was very suspicious that such a pair of sisters with beautiful looks and martial arts skills would be sent to the palace to be palace maids, and finally got the matter from the mouth of the head of the Mugeta family under all kinds of pressure.
In fact, his father has always been against this, and he prefers to live quietly by his side with sorrow and sorrow. At that time, there was also an elder who was traveling with my father and me, and my father thought that he could use this as an excuse to cancel the plan, but unexpectedly, Master promised in front of the elders that she would do her best to help Liwu and Qingchou become the people next to Emperor Yuan, on the condition that Liwu and Qingchou must lure Emperor Yuanhuang and make him a faint monarch who is spurned and resented by the world. ”
Little by little, the truth emerges, and it is terrifying.
The heroine is no longer a hero, when her eyes are confused by hatred, Sang Ying becomes an extreme woman who spends her life only for revenge; The emperor who once worked hard was no longer the Ming monarch, and when the stunning stunner fell from the sky, the former Yuan Emperor became a dumb tyrant according to Sang Ying's expectations.
The inherent cognition was completely subverted, and Wen Moshu leaned back into the chair deeply, rubbing the corners of his forehead with a tired face.
"As far as I know, King Qinglian's nature is not bad, and it was her father who personally put the blame on her head, which made the people of the world resentful of King Qinglian. There is another thing I don't understand, who is the Qinglian King we are talking about? Is it the woman who is called Liwu, or is her sister sorrowful? Which one is the current worry? ”
"What Emperor Yuan encountered in Anzhou was Liwu, who grew up and dressed up completely according to the master's requirements, but Qingchou followed closely and quietly infiltrated the imperial capital, and lived in the underground palace for many years after the Qinglian Palace was built. If I have to ask who the Qinglian King is, I can only say that they are all Qinglian Wang, and only when they are together is the real Qinglian King; As for the ...... of separation"
Helian Mingyan's faint gaze fell on Yan Liwu, and then moved away, with a touch of worry in his expression.
"Sorrow and sorrow are similar in appearance, but they have different personalities. Light sorrow is determined to prove that he wants to return to his father, so he always responds very positively to the elders' arrangements, and at the age of fourteen, he has already won the trust of the elders to solve the Gu poison. But Li Wei was always unwilling to bewitch Emperor Yuan and mess with the world, until the end, he was still threatened by Gu poison. ”
If these words had been said a year ago, Wen Moshu and the others would have been confused and incomprehensible, but now they are shocked, but they are not too surprised.
The onset of Yan Li's sorrow Gu disease is enough to prove that she is the real Yan Li's sorrow, and the bones found under the underground palace naturally belong to Yan Qing's sorrow, but in this way, another problem will follow.
"You are not in Zhongzhou, and the sisters surnamed Yan were born with the same face, how can you be sure who is alive and who is dead?" Regarding this problem, Wen Moqing was particularly stubborn, as if he had to dig into the root of the problem to find out clearly.
Helian Ming raised his head slightly, and smiled wryly, but he didn't answer the question.
"No matter how similar it is, sorrow and sorrow are not a person after all, and it is this subtlety that made me lose one of my sisters."
The Gu poison on Yan Liwu's body is the most accurate proof of her relationship with the Qinglian King, so the corpse bones in the underground palace obviously belong to Yan Qingwu.
