Chapter 252: The Truth Is Belated

After General An's already messed up internal breath was calmed down by Jiang Liuli, he still looked ahead blankly like a walking corpse.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Liuli shook his head helplessly, no matter what kind of man he is, as long as he meets true love, he will become a fool and become a weakness that can destroy himself.

The former commander An is now a hussar general, and he can marry any woman he wants in his capacity, but for Wushuang has never married a wife, in his psychology, only Wushuang is his only wife, even if he has not married her, he has long treated her as a wife.

"Commander An, I'm sorry, I hurt Wushuang and your children." Seeing him so sad and desperate, Lan's mother felt even more guilty.

"It was an accident, and you don't want to." General An shook his head weakly, this may be fate, fate should be lonely for life.

"No, it wasn't an accident, it was man-made." Lan Mu retorted firmly, and only she knew what happened back then.

"What do you mean?" General An turned around and looked at her in shock, when the emperor pursued the truth, the answer he got was obviously an accident, but she said it was not an accident, what the hell is going on?

"I don't know how the Yilan Palace caught fire back then, but when I found out, all the palace people in the dormitory fainted, and they couldn't wake up no matter how they screamed, and the worse thing was that the door of the dormitory was locked from the door, and I couldn't escape if I wanted to." Lan Mu looked at the Queen Mother with a resentful face, in addition to Wushuang, there were many innocent palace people who died in that fire, and it was really hateful to kill so many people for their own selfishness.

"What? How is this possible? General An looked at Lan Mu in disbelief, when the fire was burning, someone had gone to put out the fire, and the door of the dormitory was obviously locked from the inside.

"When I noticed the fire, I ran to open the door, the door was indeed locked, and then I was in a daze of smoke, and I was woken up by Wushuang, and just as we were fleeing from Yilan Palace, she was hit by a burned pillar in order to save me." When Lan Mu said this, tears suddenly fell, and she still felt unbearable heartache when she remembered the picture at that time.

After she was smashed, the fire on the pillar instantly ignited her clothes, and the fire burned her skin mercilessly, and in the blink of an eye, her body was completely burned.

Listening to her mournful screams, Lan Mu was heartbroken and anxious, and when she wanted to save her, she had no strength at all because of the large amount of smoke she inhaled, and when she finally got up from the ground, she was blocked by another burning pillar, and could no longer approach her.

"If Ziyuan hadn't risked his life and ran into the fire to save me, I would have died a long time ago." Lan's mother was heartbroken and shed tears, when she saw Wushuang being burned alive, she gave up running away and planned to die with her.

Ziyuan is the little guard next to General An, and often follows him to Yilan Palace, and after a long time, he gets acquainted with them, and his feelings are stronger than others.

In order to save Concubine Lan at that time, he suffered multiple burns on his body and face, and finally died of infection because he was not treated in time.

Seeing the people around her leave her one by one, she was very desperate when she was lonely, if it weren't for the child in her belly, she probably would really think.

"But how did you get out of the palace? At that time, the palace was under martial law, and you couldn't escape at all. The Queen Mother, who had been silent, asked curiously, this is the question she has always wanted to ask.

"Successive emperors have left a way back for themselves, even the imperial palace." Lan Mu smiled coldly, and then looked at her with a smug expression.

"What? The emperor actually told you about the secret room in the palace. The queen mother looked at her in shock, the palace secret room is the escape path left by the emperors of previous dynasties, only the emperor knows, even if you are the queen and the queen mother, you have no right to know.

"He just told me to hide in the secret room when I was in danger, and then waited for him to come back and save me, but unfortunately, I used the secret room to escape from the palace and escape from him." Lan Mu smiled mockingly.

When the emperor told her about the secret room, he knew that he would be hurt, but he didn't know if the fire that followed was also what he expected?

"Very good, Your Majesty, you are really good." The Queen Mother laughed angrily, although she knew that the emperor was different from her, but she didn't expect to even tell her such a secret thing, it can be seen from this that he really loves her.

"You know that the emperor is looking for you, why don't you come back? If you come back, he'll get justice for you. General An looked at Lan Mu indignantly, if she had appeared at that time, the person who killed Wushuang would have been punished, and he would not have been at large for so many years.

"I've lost a child and don't want to lose it again, so I chose to flee this terrible palace." Lan Mu turned her head to look at Lan Tingxuan on the side, with a slow love in her eyes.

Lan Tingxuan and Jiang Liuli were both shocked when they heard this, it turned out that before him, Lan's mother had also had a child, but in this treacherous palace, if there was no protection from the emperor, the child would not be born safely.

"Mother." Lan Tingxuan stepped forward and held Lan's mother's hand tightly, although he couldn't accept his life experience, Lan's mother's love for him warmed his heart, and this kind of love could cover up the panic in his heart.

"He knew who killed my child, but he didn't punish him for the sake of the balance of the government, and since then, I have been completely disappointed in him, and I don't want to go back to this terrible palace when I encounter that fire again." Lan Mu lowered her head and said resentfully.

When Jiang Liuli heard this, he finally understood the whole story, if he wasn't completely disappointed in the emperor, how could he not come back to avenge him.

Only when he is disappointed to the extreme, he would rather be alone with his children away from the palace and live a poor life than see him again.

"Tingxuan, will you blame your mother? So you haven't seen your father yet? Lan's mother looked at him worriedly, and she had planned not to let him see his father from the beginning, so she deceived him that his father had died.

"No, mother, I don't blame you." Lan Tingxuan smiled gently, even if there was no obstruction from Lan's mother, he didn't want to see his father, in his opinion, having a mother, now having a wife and daughter is enough.

"Originally, I planned to rot this secret in my stomach for the rest of my life, but unfortunately, after more than twenty years of hiding, you still returned to Shengjing, and things still developed to this point." Lan's mother smiled helplessly, in order for Lan Tingxuan to grow up safely, she didn't even dare to come back to visit her parents, for fear of being discovered.

"All this is the credit of the Queen Mother, if it weren't for her, how could things have gotten to this point." Jiang Liuli smiled mockingly.

If the previous things were done by the Queen Mother, now that she sees Lan Tingxuan entering and leaving the Li Mansion, she will definitely guess the relationship between them, and with her temperament, she can be killed by mistake, and she can't let the things of the past be exposed.

It is precisely because of this psychology that he desperately wants to kill Prime Minister Li and kill Lan Tingxuan, who has no idea.

"It's you, the fire at the beginning was premeditated by you, that's why you want to kill people today." General An suddenly reacted and glared at the Queen Mother resentfully.

"Ridiculous, how could the mourning family do such a thing, something without evidence, and ask the hussar general not to spew blood." The Queen Mother looked at General An with a calm face, even if they wanted to track it down after many years, there was no way to find out, and what Concubine Lan said was not enough evidence to be used as evidence.

"The emperor really loved me, when the child was gone, not only was I sad, but he was also sad, but he still suppressed this matter, who else could make him so jealous except the Qi family?" Lan Mu smiled coldly, the first emperor had no scruples about doing anything when he was alive, but as long as the Qi family was involved, he would hesitate, and even look at their faces.

"Joke, it's ridiculous to want to frame me and frame the Qi family based on this alone." The Queen Mother smiled mockingly, did she want her to confess her guilt based on this? It's just wishful thinking.

"Since it's not you, then why do you have to put Tingxuan to death?" Lan Mu looked at her aggressively, although what she said just now was her own side, and there was no evidence to confirm it, knowing that she had done all this.

"The mourning family said, he colluded with the rebel party......" The queen mother was interrupted by Lan's mother before she finished speaking.

"No, the reason why you want to kill him is because he is the son of the former emperor, and you are worried that once his identity is revealed, it will threaten your son's position, so you want to get rid of him quickly." Lan Mu said viciously, this was the first time she had shown such a fierce side in front of Lan Tingxuan.

"Heh, are you kidding? Emperor Tianqi did so steadily, how could he be shaken by Lan Tingxuan's appearance. The Queen Mother looked at her mockingly, since Xing Tianqi became the emperor, she has been doing very well in political affairs, and she is also very loved by the people, no one can take away such a stable position.

"Because he has a murderous mother, in order to get the position of queen, he used all kinds of means to get rid of threats, even innocent children, if this is known by the people, will they still trust your son?" The Queen Mother of Lan's words was flustered for a while, but she was still calm as usual on the surface.

"Do you think anyone will believe what you're saying?" The Queen Mother said disapprerovingly, who will believe it if there is no evidence.

"I believe it." General An on the side glared at her resentfully, he was on Lan Mu's side from beginning to end, not because Lan Mu was a peerless master, but because he had seen her execute a young and beautiful palace maid when he was the commander of the imperial front.

If that's the case, it's okay, after all, the palace maid should be punished for doing something wrong, but the palace maid obviously didn't do anything wrong, but when she was pouring tea for the emperor, the emperor looked at her a few more times and attracted the disaster of killing, such a jealous and ruthless woman can do anything.

"Because you killed too much when you were young, did you want to atone for your sins to the Buddha when you were old? Unfortunately, retribution did not appear in you, but in your daughter. Jiang Liuli looked at the very magnificent Buddha hall in front of him mockingly, if his heart was not sincere, no matter how big the Buddha hall was, he would not be able to cover up his sins.

"Presumptuous, you dare to speak to the Queen Mother like this." The grandmother beside the Queen Mother yelled angrily, looking at these people with resentful eyes.

"Am I not right? If you tell me, why would Princess Anle go crazy for no reason? She continued to ask, and the more things the Queen Mother cared about, the more she had to take them out to stimulate her.

"You ......" Mama glared at her angrily, wanting to refute but not knowing how to refute.

"Leave me aside." Xing Tianqi, who had been silent, finally spoke, looking at the Queen Mother's eyes full of remorse.

At this moment, he really regretted it, if he hadn't insisted on finding the so-called truth, things would not have evolved like this, watching his mother being forced to this point by others, his heart hurt beyond measure.

No matter what kind of person the Queen Mother is, she is his mother, whether it is good or bad, he has no right to blame.
