No matter how reluctant Luo Qingqing was, she had to accept the fact that the relics could not belong to her, and it was impossible for them to return to her mother. And May, it seems, that everything was in her expectation, wasn't too surprised by such a result.

"I'd love to know what role you played in this case? You're doubly prepared, aren't you? Your attitude towards me has always been so **, and it was also your mother's arrangement, right? So, you behaved in front of me as little more than obeying your mother's arrangement? Sunan, who had been silent, finally spoke. He looked at Luo Qingqing with a complicated expression, and then glanced at Su Tian'er: "You two...... All smart, all smart. No matter how smart I think I am, I can't escape the calculations of the two of you. This time, I was really defeated. But I hope you will be able to do it well in the future. ”

"My lord......" Su Tian'er and Luo Qingqing spoke at the same time, especially Tian'er, a few tears rolled out of her eyes.

Sunan raised his hand, and Yun smiled lightly: "You don't have to say anything." I'm already unable to protect myself, where can I take care of you? Maybe you're overestimating yourself, and you don't need me to do anything, do you? How could someone as smart as you not arrange a retreat for yourself? Instead of putting too much energy on me, it is better to please Chu Gongzi. ”

Su Tian'er's face was like ashes, and Luo Qingqing also lowered her head. Chu Yunfei could see that these two women who were trapped by love were afraid that they had already been in love. He couldn't help but sigh, it seems that Mei Yingxue is not wrong at all, many times, people will do a lot of things against their will when they are forced to do it. Whether it is Luo Qingqing or Su Tianer, they are all young women, how can they control their feelings in the face of a personable man like Sunan?

Back at the Bamboo Fragrance Pavilion, Ye Huan couldn't wait to say the question in his heart, how did the relics get to the Chai family in the first place?

"Do you need to ask such a simple question?" Mei Yingxue looked at Chu Yunfei a little nervously, "Don't you think there is no need to pursue these problems at all?" ”

"Well, it's not a big deal to ask. Don't you see that Lord Chai has seen through the red dust? Everything in the past has become a thing of the past. Why did the relics come to Chai's house? Have you never wondered what Pan's identity is? Why does she care so much about relics, and why does she care so much about the existence of Mrs. Xiang? Chu Yunfei was a little helpless, this was not a secret, if he had been a little more careful. It's a pity that he put too much energy on Mrs. Xiang and didn't even notice Pan.

Mei Yingxue didn't speak, just lowered her head and sat there without moving. It was Ye Huan, who was still looking at Chu Yunfei curiously. Chu Yunfei shook his head, "Haven't you heard that when Taizu Chen Qiao mutinied, after the yellow robe was added, he led his troops back to the capital. On the surface, Taizu treated the Chai family quite favorably, and named Emperor Zhou Gong as King Zheng, and made an oath: The descendants of the Chai family will not be punished if they are guilty. But in fact, do you remember the fate of Hou Chen and Hou Shu? As an emperor, it is impossible to completely let down his guard, and King Zheng has completely become a pawn at their mercy. It is said that after placing Queen Zheng at that time, Taizu wanted to cut down the rest of the Chai family and eradicate the roots, and the ministers at that time, Pan Mei and Lu Yan, who risked their lives to admonish and block, secretly took away the two princes of Sejong: Chai Xijin, the king of Ji at that time, and Chai Xixu, the king of Qi. King Qi, who was taken away by Lu Yan, changed his name to Lu Xuan in order to avoid the fate of being hunted down. In order to avoid another turmoil in the future, Lu Yan took his family to the south, and it is said that King Qi married Lu Jin, the third lady of the Lu family, under Lu Yan's arrangement, and there was no news after avoiding the south. King Ji taken away by Pan Mei also changed his surname to Pan, because of the relationship between Master Pan, so Taizu did not ask again. The only thing that is certain is that in addition to these two people, the descendants of Sejong are dead and scattered. In the eyes of outsiders, the beautiful Chai Wangfu is said to be a side branch of the Chai family. ”

"Oh, no wonder......" Ye Huan's face was full of sudden realization, it turned out that this was the case, and it was only at this time that he finally understood why Chu Yunfei was so cautious when dealing with this matter. If it weren't for that, I'm afraid it would be difficult for the two of them to save their lives. Speaking of which......"

"In fact, through this incident, Taizu also understood that the power of the Chai family, as well as those who were loyal to Hou Zhou, so they have always been very careful with the Chai family. Those who secretly supported the Chai family also dreamed of regaining the imperial power as soon as possible, so those people tried every means to get the relics, hoping to achieve their goals with the help of the power of the gods, but ...... It's not as simple as they think, is it? What if you have relics? Chai Wang Ye is right, now that the people are living and working in peace and contentment, where can they think about who is the emperor? Since ancient times, only those who win the hearts of the people can win the world, right? Chu Yunfei shook his head and said, "It's a pity that not all people understand this truth, so they have always wanted to find the lost relics." Haven't you ever thought about Pan's identity......"

"You mean to say...... Pan is a descendant of Later Zhou Shizong? She's ...... The descendants of King Ji? Ye Huan's eyes widened.

Chu Yunfei didn't answer, and only said after a long while: "Maybe." Otherwise, she was just the prince's concubine back then, why would she be so courteous to the Chai family, and even the old princess loved her? If it weren't for someone to deal with it, probably with her identity, she wouldn't be willing to be King Chai's concubine. Unfortunately, at that time, Yang Xiang'er appeared, fascinated the prince, and completely put her aside. What's more, Lord Chai handed over such an important relic to Yang Xiang'er. This is something that no one expected. I think there must be a force behind her, looking for relics, even including the people of the Chai family. The bloody case of the Yang family back then was more or less related to her, and she may not have done it herself. It's a pity that they returned in vain, and the relics didn't know why they fell into the hands of Prince Zhao. And the Pan family, in frustration, was willing to serve the Lord of Lingshuang, probably with other arrangements, such as ...... Create an encounter between the county lord and the emperor. ”

What a brilliant plan! When Chu Yunfei said this, he couldn't help but begin to admire Pan's mind. However, with her alone, I am afraid that she will not be able to complete such a huge plan, and I don't know how many people will be involved behind it.

"And then there was the marriage of the Chai and Zhao families? The reason why the county lord was persuaded to marry the prince was for the sake of relics? The Pan family inexplicably changed from a concubine to a dowry of the county lord...... It was also because they heard about the relics that they finally agreed to the marriage. Ye Huan asked a little hesitantly.
