Chapter 477: You Have to Trust Me (Second Watch)
Zhao Chengyuan's phoenix eyes were deep. It turned out that the father had also made these two conditions.
He did so, crowning the imperial concubine and the crown prince. It's just that the imperial concubine was given to the dead, and the crown prince was usurped by the eldest son before he could do so.
I don't know what my father thought when he did this, whether he had affection for Princess Baorong, and whether he felt guilty.
Princess Baorong's death, whether there is a father's handiwork in it.
And the queen mother...... In the previous life, the Anling Houfu was finally destroyed, and it turned out to be involved by the queen mother, and the evidence of treason was handed over to Zhao Chen by the king of Xiliang.
"When the queen mother and the imperial brother arrived at Xiangping Mansion, her father had already been captured, and she was afraid that she would have no choice but to cooperate with the whole royal family. Also, every year the Queen Mother would make me kowtow to an empty tablet without telling me who she was."
King Xiliang's face sank, "You want to protect Anling Houfu? Yes, you knew your background before, but you still pretended to be a ghost-faced general to come to the border to help Anling Houfu. You read Queen Lu's nurturing grace, but you don't know that she doesn't want her mother to rely on her son to sit firmly in the position of the queen!"
Zhao Chengyuan also had such a guess that his most respected father, his most attached mother, was the enemy who killed his biological mother and the executioner who destroyed his maternal grandfather. This once became his inner demon, making him miserable and almost becoming a demon.
It wasn't until he arrived at Cangyuan Mountain that he met the little girl, who dissolved the anger in his heart little by little, and let him gradually return to peace.
Zhao Chengyuan said, "The love of parents is far-reaching. If it weren't for the many life-saving things that the Queen Mother secretly did for me, I am afraid I would not be alive now."
Master Qingde is a great help left to him by his mother, and in the years when he was young, he was able to escape several assassinations because of Master Qingde.
The queen mother is a woman in the deep palace, but it took four years to build a private army of 5,000 people, and the master is him. Later, he slowly strengthened this private army, so that he had the deterrent power of today's ghost-faced general.
The silver taels used to raise the private army are all rich private property left to him by the queen mother.
King Xiliang snorted coldly, "I thought you were decisive in killing, and I thought you were a ruthless person, but I didn't think that you were as soft-hearted as Fuzhang, because of the grace of care, the hatred of the country and the family hatred were forgotten."
Although the truth is not better than he imagined, and the collapsed image of his father in his heart has not been re-established, Zhao Chengyuan knows very well that if he wants to let King Xiliang live, he must eliminate the hatred in his heart.
Otherwise, the big war is still inevitable, the tragedy of the previous life will still be staged, and there is Youning...... He could no longer put her in danger.
Zhao Chengyuan said, "I understand the hatred and anger in your heart, and I have experienced it, but hatred can blind people's eyes. What happened to my mother after she arrived in Da Zhou, you don't know, and I don't know. You and I don't know who did my mother's death, it's all just speculation."
King Xiliang's eyes sharpened, "Are you openly taking off for Dingguo? You married the daughter of Dingguo Gong, and you didn't even take revenge on your mother? Or did you not take this mother's hatred to heart at all, so you knew that she was the daughter of the enemy, and you insisted on asking her to marry her."
Suddenly, he thought of a possibility, "Or, you and I have the same idea—"
….
married her, and abandoned her after she sank, so that Dingguo Gong could also taste the loss of his beloved daughter.
Zhao Chengyuan did not answer, but looked at Han Youning worriedly.
Han Youning's face was as pale as paper, and he looked at him with tears.
From the moment Zhao Chengyuan admitted that he was the son of Princess Baorong, Han Youning felt that the sky had fallen.
It turned out that there was such a deep sea of blood between her and Zhao Chengyuan. Her grandfather was killed by Zhao Chengyuan's maternal grandfather, Zhao Chengyuan's maternal grandfather was killed by his father, Zhao Chengyuan's maternal grandfather was slaughtered by his father, and Zhao Chengyuan's biological mother...... When Zhao Chengyuan was born, his father was in another courtyard! What role did he play in it and what did he do? qqxsne
Now when I think back to many things from before, and even many things from my previous life, I suddenly understand.
No wonder Zhao Chengyuan has always refused to recognize her in his past and present lives, no wonder there is such tension between Zhao Chengyuan and his father, no wonder Zhao Chengyuan once refused Emperor Qingming's marriage.
Han Youning asked, "The prince didn't go to the top of Cangyuan Mountain to look for me in June last year, but because he just knew that I was the daughter of the Chen family, the niece of Dingguo Gong, and had a feud with you?"
Zhao Chengyuan sighed in a low voice, "Last year, I prepared my wedding dress and wine, and I planned to marry you. Go and find out where you came from......
He didn't think about how to face her and how to get along with her for a while. He was afraid that he would not be able to restrain his demons and do something to hurt her.
Han Youning smiled bitterly, she originally thought that the missed life between the two of them in the previous life was because of Zhao Chen's intervention, but now it seems that it is more because he can't forget the hatred.
She has been trying all her life, trying to break free from the suffering that fate has imposed on her. She and her fairy brother recognized each other, got married, and everything was getting better, but just when she thought she could keep the clouds open and see the moon, fate played such a big joke on her.
She is the daughter of Dingguo Gong, and it is her fault.
Han You looked at Zhao Chengyuan quietly, his gaze detached, "On the night the Chen family was destroyed, did you not have time to save others, or did you not want to save it?"
"I can understand now that you refused the emperor's marriage, but later, why did you marry again?"
Zhao Chengyuan's worst fear still happened. Once Youning knows the truth, I'm afraid that all the previous trust will be wiped out at this moment.
Youning has experienced the pain of annihilation, the pain of losing her relatives, and the sinister hearts of many people, she seems to be so quiet that she is not like a little girl, but her psychology is actually very fragile and sensitive.
Even he, who was favored by his father and queen mother for four years, still lost all trust after knowing the truth, only all kinds of suspicion and endless pain.
Zhao Chengyuan couldn't stand her detached look, and reached out to take him into his arms, only in this way could the hearts of the two be closer.
Han Youning took a step back, avoiding his arm, "The prince hasn't answered me yet."
Zhao Chengyuan looked at her calmly and said, "I was going to see you quietly that night, but I happened to run into the destruction of the door, and most of the people in the mansion had already encountered an accident at that time, and I really only had time to save you.
The Chen family is the richest man in the southwest, and it is actually the practice of the richest family to subsidize the military grain and grass in the southwest. I avoided you and didn't recognize you because you are the niece of Dingguo Gong, and I haven't thought about how to get along with you for a while.
Later, you and I got along a lot, and I couldn't watch you being snatched away by Zhao Chen, so I begged to marry you. As for the Duke of Dingguo, I have already figured it out when I asked to marry you, and I have completely let go of my demons, and the Duke of Dingguo is the duty, and he can't let the Great Zhou be destroyed."
He held Yu Ning's shoulders and said in a low tone, "Yu Ning, are you willing to believe me?"
After being reborn, I became a scumbag and his aunt.
