Chapter 35: The Truth I Don't Want to Know
"Princess? Uncle Jiang, Aunt Bai, am I not the daughter of the traitor King Yuyang, but the princess of Zhou Huanguo? The two elders didn't say this on purpose because they were afraid that I wouldn't be able to bear it, right? Mingyue asked with a far-fetched smile.

Since childhood, Mingyue has been very curious about her life experience, but Jiang Ming and Bai Huying have been silent about this matter repeatedly. Except for Jiang Ming and Bai Huying, no one in Suyue Garden has anything to do with Mingyue's birth. Yes, Mingyue couldn't ask. When Mingyue was older, there were countless inferences. But no matter how he deduced, it could not be verified. Slowly, Mingyue also let go of her attachment to her life experience. It wasn't until the end of last year, when the Cao Gang made a change during the reign of Song Lao Wu and really threatened Suyueyuan, that Mingyue ignited a new attachment to his life experience.
Although Suyueyuan is not the richest man in Ji Yu, it is also a middle-class and upper-class rich family in Ji Yu. With land, forests, fishing grounds, and grain shops, Jiang Ming and Bai Huying should have no problem if they want to live a peaceful and stable life for a hundred years. But they have been risking their lives to buy coal and iron ore that Ji Yuguo has expressly banned from trading, which is the problem in Mingyue's opinion.
For Suyue Garden, there is no need to wade through this muddy water in exchange for more wealth. Therefore, Mingyue believes that Jiang Ming and Bai Huying have only one reason for doing this: to secretly smelt weapons and arm their "army". As for this "army", it has already been stationed in the front yard of Suyue Garden, and it is the Deadpool who desperately swept away the Cao Gang.
A wealthy family who has formed a good relationship with others has spent years of hard work and risked killing his head to raise a well-equipped Deadpool team, and it is not difficult to guess his purpose in doing soββββ revenge, and it is a sea of blood revenge. And whose revenge is it, Mingyue is more inclined to his mother's revenge.
Jiang Ming and Bai Huying occasionally mentioned Mingyue's mother, but never mentioned their father. Although they have always determined that Mingyue's mother died of dystocia, Mingyue, who has been wise since childhood, knows that what they are telling is a lie, and he believes that his mother's death is not simple. Since Mingyue had dealt with the affairs of the Cao Gang and had a clearer guess about his background, he always went to Song Youzhi's residence to inquire about the royal family of Zhou Huanguo. Finally, after a few months of inquiry, Mingyue took another step forward.
The surname of the king of Yuyang in Zhou Huanguo is Jiang Haoyue, who is the younger brother of Emperor Zhou Huanguo, and he is accompanied by only one princess in his life. Fifteen years ago, the princess was pregnant for eight months but died in childbirth, and soon after, the king of Yuyang launched a rebellion. Because the rebellion of the king of Yuyang became very sudden, the emperor of Zhou Huanguo did not have time to resist, so he had to flee in a hurry. However, in the end, due to the weak situation, the king of Yuyang was exterminated by the general of Zhou Huanguo in the second month after the rebellion.
Whether it was time or event, Mingyue felt that he was very much in line with the identity of the little lord of Yuyang Wang. That's why there is such a guess.

"Your Highness inquired today, and we can't hide it anymore. I am the female official in charge of the palace beside the former queen of Zhou Huanguo, with a white beard. He ββββ" Bai Huying glanced at Jiang Ming and continued: "He is the head of the queen's side. β
"What!"
Mingyue couldn't help but exclaim. Over the years, he had speculated about the reason why Uncle Jiang did not take Bai Huying as his wife, but he never thought that his Uncle Jiang was actually a eunuch.
"I was forced to purify myself at an older age, so I don't look any different from a normal man on the outside, plus I have been practicing martial arts for many years, and my body is much stronger than that of ordinary eunuchs, so if I don't take the initiative to talk about it, most people can't see it."
"Uncle Jiang~" Mingyue had mixed feelings at this time, that is, she felt sorry for Jiang Ming and was ashamed of her determination.
"Your Highness don't feel sorry for me. To put it irreverently, over the years, with Hu Ying and His Royal Highness, I have also had a complete and normal home. I'm content. β
Mingyue listened to Jiang Ming's words, and instantly got up and threw herself into Jiang Ming's arms: "Uncle Jiang, Yue'er has not had the care of her biological parents since she was a child, and thanks to the care of her uncle and aunt, she has finally grown up to the present." Although she calls you her uncle, she has long regarded you as her father in Yue'er's heart. If Uncle Jiang doesn't dislike Yue'er's shallow life, Yue'er is willing to change her mind immediately. β
Jiang Ming's eyes were a little moist when he heard Mingyue's heartfelt words, for him, it is impossible to have his own children in this life, which is always a big regret in life. For a long time, although he regarded Mingyue as his own child, he never dared to recognize Mingyue as a woman. Monarchs and ministers are always rules that Jiang Ming can't break. And Mingyue can still go on a blind date with him so sincerely after knowing the identity relationship between the two, how can this tough guy not be moved.
Snorting, Jiang Ming suppressed the excitement in his heart and continued: "Your Highness, no matter what, across the queen's mother, this is a rule that a slave cannot overcome. Your Highness has this heart, my old Jiang is already very grateful, whether to change his words or not is just a formality, we don't have to be persistent. β
Mingyue listened and pulled out, scratching her head a little embarrassed. He accidentally left his mother behind, which is not right. Thinking of her mother, Mingyue continued to ask: "Then my mother, uh, queen mother?" Is it really a difficult birth? My father, but now the emperor of the Zhou Circumambulation Kingdom, Kang Ho-kyung? So what did I hide from as a woman disguised as a man since I was a child? β
"His Royal Highness's biological mother is the Empress Huici of Zhou Huanguo, Chen, that is, the first queen of the current Zhou Huanguo ββββ Jiang Haojingββββ the dog emperor! His Royal Highness's father is that Jiang Haojing. β
Bai Huying's face was full of hatred, and he completely forgot to avoid it in front of Mingyue. However, Mingyue has no feelings for his biological father, and he never cares. However, Jiang Ming felt that Bai Huying's current state was a little inappropriate, and he was afraid that she would be too excited to say something that would be out of place, so he took over the conversation.
"Hu Ying, let me talk about it. Two months before Her Royal Highness was born, the queen mother suddenly called me and Hu Ying to me and told us to take a large amount of silver tickets from the mother to hide in the palace outside the palace selected by the mother in advance. Niangniang also said that after giving birth, she would entrust Her Royal Highness to us to raise. Hu Ying and I were full of lawsuits, but Niangniang didn't tell us in detail, so she beat me and Hu Ying out of the palace for the crime of disobedience. β
"After that, we only met my mother's upbringing. Mama told us to wait for His Royal Highness by boat under the cliff of the Imperial Palace the next night. Mama didn't explain the various reasons, but from Mama's face, we know that something must have happened to the mother. The cliff is hundreds of feet deep, and under it is a bottomless cold pool, which is cold all year round. Hu Ying and I were worried about the safety of His Royal Highness, so we came to the bottom of the cliff on the afternoon of the second day. Who knew that it was still a step too late. The rope that hung down the little highness was cut from above, and the little highness fell straight into the cold pool. β
Listening to Jiang Ming's narration, Bai Huying once again remembered the night that made her have countless nightmares, and tears couldn't stop flowing out again.
"The newborn little highness was still ββββ swaddling clothes, and he was choked on his organs by the cold pool water. His Royal Highness, who was originally healthy and healthy, suffered from cold diseases because of the water of the cold pool, and he was tormented by his illness for fifteen years. I often think that back then, if Jiang Ming and I could arrive for half a cup of tea early, we would not let His Highness ββββ"
Bai Hu Ying was still immersed in self-blame, but Mingyue carefully wiped her tears with her hands. Bai Huying saw Mingyue, who was full of distress, tugged at the corners of her mouth and continued: "After we rescued His Royal Highness, we hurried back to the hiding place. That night, around the capital, there was a strict curfew, and soldiers went from house to house looking for newborn baby girls. We knew that the situation was not good, and with the little effort we had, we escaped from the capital with His Royal Highness overnight. Later, while seeking medical treatment for His Royal Highness, he fled to Ji Yuguo according to Niangniang's original instructions. When we arrived at the border between the two countries, we heard the sad news that His Royal Highness had passed away just after birth, that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had been assassinated, and that the Queen had hanged herself. And a month later, the news came that the dog emperor had set up another empress and a crown prince. Not long after, His Royal Highness's maternal grandfather handed over his military power and returned to his ancestral home with the family. β
Bai Huying stopped talking about this, but Mingyue was so smart, when she heard this, she naturally understood the words of Bai Huying's words, and she couldn't bear to kill her own people in infancy, intercept and kill her own brother and force her mother to death, she is the father who is afraid of the power of her relatives and acts like a villain! Thinking about her brother who was killed and her mother who was devastated twice, Mingyue felt that her heart was torn into countless petals. How ironic it is that a person who gave half of his blood blood should so cruelly mutilate his other blood relatives! Mingyue only felt that his blood was spurting, and if he could, he would immediately get rid of the half of the blood that the person had given him.
"Ah!!h Mingyue covered her head and cried loudly.
Seeing this, Jiang Ming and Bai Huying didn't know how to comfort Mingyue. Just before Mingyue felt that he was about to explode, a pair of powerful arms bent across his chest.
