Mu Lianche, who returned to the palace, knew the bottom of his heart, and he was more comfortable with all kinds of contacts. Since he was crowned the king of the county, he has been moving around with various provinces frequently, and he is also very happy that he can apply what Bai Ying Bai Xing has learned. From a show girl who barely leaves home to a son who touches the core of power, Mu Lianche has reaped such great success and pleasure for the first time. It turns out that I can do much more than just embroider some beautiful embroidery. He can also be a man with great ambitions to help the world. It's just that there is always something in his heart that bothers him, how to ask his mother about his life experience?

On the day of the winter solstice, Mu Lianche accompanied Princess Ji to Yuntai Mountain to incense. The fine snowflakes floating in the sky, the two of them seemed to be thoughtful in the sedan chair, and they didn't talk much. Mu Lianche felt that only the mother and son were the best time to solve the doubts in their hearts at this moment

"Mother, do you remember the child's Yujue?"

"What happened to what I gave you?" Princess Ji thought that he had lost or broken it, and her tone was a little nervous

"I heard that this jade jue is a couple, and the other piece is still with the mother's concubine."

"It's gone," Princess Ji was shocked

"The child heard that Yu Jue was originally a love object for two people who were in love, and one person held one piece, where is the other piece in his father?" Mu Lianche said tentatively

"Who did you listen to as a child, why did you suddenly remember to ask this, this jade jue was given to me by the queen mother, not your father, this is all told to you"

"Ao, who did the Queen Mother give the other piece to?"

"What are you doing here?" Princess Ji was uneasy in her heart

"This Yujue mother concubine is so cherished, she has to keep it as an heirloom, I want to know why it is so precious."

"The Queen Mother gave it, how can it not be precious, you are annoyed again?" Princess Ji deliberately used an angry tone to hide the uneasiness in her heart

"Since Yu Jue is a couple and a love object, how can the Queen Mother give one to her mother and the other not to her father?"

"Did you hear something?"

"The child just wants to know," Mu Lianche looked at Princess Ji's moist eyes

"The Queen Mother gave me one of these jade jue back then, and the other to the King of Chu. After the death of the king of Chu, this other piece of jade jue was laid to rest with him. ”

"Back then, the mother concubine and the king of Chu were originally childhood sweethearts, right? It's a pity that providence made people, and the king of Chu died, so the mother concubine married her father. So what the hell is a child..."

Princess Ji's uncontrollable tears made Mu Lianche unable to bear to continue to ask, although he didn't spend much time with Princess Ji, he had already felt the warmth that a mother gave to her son, this warmth seemed to be the master back then, but it was even stronger. The mother concubine should have been in love with the King of Chu back then, but this does not mean that she is the orphan of the King of Chu. In the Taoist temple, Mu Lianche accompanied his mother to rest in the guest room after incense. Princess Ji was a little tired, her eyes slightly closed. Mu Lianche made it in front of the brazier, gently stirring the charcoal fire.

"Che'er, your eyebrows are a lot like your father's." Princess Ji still closed her eyes, her lips didn't seem to move, but she slowly said such a sentence

"Yes, I still feel more like you, my mother."

"Hey, it's just that there is less heroism between the eyebrows. His temperament is much gentler than his. Princess Ji still said calmly

"What did the mother say? \"

The princess opened her eyes and sat up slowly, Mu Lianche's heart was beating fast, and he quickly got up and helped Princess Ji to sit up.

"You must have heard something before you asked me about Yujue, right?"

"Yes, I want to ask my mother for verification in person."

"Back then, I made a private agreement with the King of Chu for life, and I was pregnant, and the King of Chu, who was on the expedition at that time, didn't know anything about it. Who knew that God was jealous of the talent, he did not come back on time, and died on the road due to serious injuries. The Queen Mother saw that I was overly sad, and asked me again and again, and I told the truth. She has loved this son since she was a child, and she also wants to keep our mother and son after learning that the King of Chu has it. He gave me in marriage to Mu Gongzi at that time, that is, your father. But the secret in my belly is known only to me and the Queen Mother. We hid this secret together for 20 years, but I didn't expect it to be revealed today. Your father probably noticed something something was not quite right recently. And the person who told you this secret has evil intentions, and he wants to use this secret to manipulate you to achieve his goals. This person is very dangerous, once this secret is revealed, the royal face will be lost, and you and I will fall into a situation from which we will never recover! ”

"Mother, rest assured, the child will do everything in his power to protect you and protect the palace from harm."

"Mother is just your son, I just hope to be able to save you, nothing else matters"

"The child understands that no matter who the father is, the child is the son of the mother concubine, and he was raised in the Ji Wangfu, and the child will not forget this." Mu Lianche didn't say anything about King Ji's conspiracy, he didn't want this woman who had suffered a lot but endured for more than 20 years to suffer a little more blows, and he would bear it for her in the future.

Princess Ji looked at her son, tears couldn't stop flowing, the secret she had buried deep in her heart for twenty years finally saw the light of day, and the suppressed sadness and emotions also broke out for a while. She also understands that when this secret is revealed, it is also the beginning of earth-shattering changes.
