Chapter 57

"How is this possible, how can I have such a connection with the royal family, father-" Shen Yanling couldn't believe the words that came out of Shen's father's mouth, "So, you are not my biological father?"

"Naturally not, your father is the former emperor Ruide, and your mother is the queen at that time. Your mother came from a noble family, although she was born noble, but compared to the current queen mother, the power of her mother's family is much weaker, but she gave birth to the current saint before you. At that time, there was still a dispute between the courtiers and the chief, but your mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to you, and the emperor still made you the crown prince. Father Shen said with some amazement.

"In the palace, children without the protection of their mothers have such a difficult life, even if the emperor finds another concubine to raise, it is difficult to survive, not to mention, you are the crown prince. Even if a baby has a noble status, there are countless ways to make you disappear silently in the palace. I was the adopted son of your maternal grandfather, and I grew up with your mother since I was a child, and then she entered the palace, and I entered the imperial examination. The year you were born, I was admitted to the martial arts championship, and your mother gave birth to a prince, and the family was jubilant, but soon the news of your mother's death came. Your grandmother fainted on the spot, and even your grandfather aged ten years overnight, but because of the rules of the palace, we couldn't see you often. When you were half a year old, your grandmother came to the palace to see you, but found that you were so young, only a handful of bones were tortured, and when you came home, she cried so much that she almost turned her back on your back. ”

"On the one hand, I am worried that my stepmother is too sad, and on the other hand, I can't bear that your mother's only bone and blood will be killed in the palace, so I asked my friend, that is, the previous secret door master, to find a way to take you out of the palace, and then escape all the way to Xiaohe Village. From now on, I just want you to live like a child of an ordinary family. For more than 20 years, I have almost forgotten my former identity, originally you started over, that is, to be a farmer, but I don't want to, you picked up Ning'er and came back. Father Shen said to himself.

"Dad, you don't want me to marry Ning'er?"

Father Shen sighed and said, "Although I don't know where Ning'er came from, I intuitively feel that she is not an ordinary child. Not to mention her appearance and temperament, just the clothes she was wearing at that time were not something that ordinary people could have. Even the daughter of a court official will only wear a palace costume on special occasions, and I am really afraid that she will be your own sister! Fortunately, she does not have a token of the Ouyang family on her, otherwise, I will never agree to your marriage. ”

Shen Yanling was taken aback, he knew that his father did not support him in marrying Ning'er, but he didn't expect that his father was worried that Ning'er would be his sister.

Father Shen smiled, took out a gold medal from the placket of his clothes, and handed it to Shen Yanling. Shen Yanling frowned slightly, took the gold medal, and looked at it in her hand. The gold medal is not a big dragon pattern on the front, and two words are engraved on the back, Lingze. The gold medal itself is the same as the one on Ah Ping's body, but there is no inscription on that piece. Shen Yanling looked at the gold medal, and heard Shen's father explain beside him: "This is a token of the Golden Dragon Kingdom Royal Family, and your name is engraved on the back." The last time I saw Ah Ping's gold medal, I guess he must also be a member of the royal family, most likely your own nephew, but for some reason, he ended up here. ”

"So you said Ah Ping might cause me a lot of trouble?" Shen Yanling looked up at Father Shen.

"Yes, Ah Ping is so small, if it weren't for some accident, he probably wouldn't have ended up here. It's just that I don't understand what that King Jing means, although you are somewhat similar to your mother, but it is not so recognizable at a glance. Father Shen said puzzled.

"Perhaps, it's not that they recognize me, but they just suspect where I come from. Shen Yanling said, "When Yunqiao left, I also said that I am not like an ordinary reader. ”

"If so, that's for the best. It's just Yanling, with your identity, your power, do you want to take back what belongs to you. Father Shen asked seriously.

Shen Yanling looked at Father Shen with a sideways face, and said with a smile: "I can't even worry about the secret door, what are I going to do to rob those? What is good about being an emperor, I would rather be a village man." But those who make a fuss about my identity should clean it up, no matter how generous I am, I can't take my own things to others to make trouble, and in the end I have to bear the blame. The last sentence carried a chill from Sensen, making people not doubt that Shen Yanling would really do this.

"That's fine, I've always been afraid that you will not be willing to let what belongs to you be taken by others, you know, royal disputes have always been the most cruel, I would rather you be an ordinary person than you get involved in such disputes. ”

"Yanling knows, father, don't mention this matter again, Yanling is still the same Yanling as before, even if this matter is concerned, I don't have to come forward in person. Shen Yanling said, there was already a secret door, and he didn't want to cause other trouble.

"It's for the best. Since I'm here, I'm going to eat at your house tonight, Yanling won't be reluctant to give her father a meal, right?" Father Shen said all the words, and put down a stone in his heart, feeling much more comfortable, looking at Shen Yanling and joking.

"Naturally not, but Dad kicked Ning'er out, I'm afraid I'll have to wait for this meal. Shen Yanling said with a smile.

Father Shen heard Shen Yanling mention Ning'er before asking, "At this time, where did Ning'er go with the child?"

"Presumably I went up the mountain, Ning'er said that the medicine is divided into five times, and the medicine collected at different times has different effects, so I will go up the mountain to collect medicine when I have time. Shen Yanling replied.

"You have picked up a treasure, Ning'er is not very old, but her medical skills are not comparable to ordinary people. Father Shen nodded and said, "It's just, what is Ning'er's identity, have you figured it out?"

"Ning'er's real name is Shangguan Shuixuan, and she is the married princess of the Phoenix Kingdom. Shen Yanling explained simply, "Six years ago, I have ordered someone to investigate the robbery and murder of Princess Phoenix, but there is no news yet. I'm going to Beijing to take the exam in the New Year, and I plan to take Ning'er with me, and this matter should be over. ”

Father Shen heard Shen Yanling's explanation, nodded, and said: "Yes, if this matter is not handled well, I am afraid that it will cause a war between the two countries, just go and see if Xin'er is doing well, although I believe in Yunqiao's character, I still have to make sure that she is good to rest assured." ”

"Father don't worry, the last time I secretly entered Beijing, I had already secretly seen Yanxin, she was doing well, Yunqiao and his mother were very good to Yanxin. Yunqiao has no other concubines, except for some hardships in the interaction of noblewomen in Beijing, Yanxin has a very good life. Shen Yanling said to Shen's father.
