Pei Dingyuan had never heard of the Southern Wei Dynasty before, and if it weren't for the fact that the Southern Wei people suddenly came to him and told him about the relationship between the Pei family and the Southern Wei, he wouldn't have known about the existence of the Southern Wei. Before coming to Zhao Yao, he secretly investigated the Southern Wei by himself, but found nothing, which made him feel that the Southern Wei was very mysterious.

"Your Highness, I have been reading the history books in Taixue's library, and I have not seen anything about the Southern Wei Dynasty, is the Southern Wei Dynasty a previous dynasty, or did it exist a long time ago?" He also hadn't heard of the Southern Wei Dynasty from his husband and classmates.

"The Southern Wei Dynasty appeared in the previous dynasty, but it was a small country at that time." Zhao Yao saw that Pei Dingyuan wanted to know about the Southern Wei Dynasty, and planned to tell him something, "The Southern Wei Dynasty surrendered to the previous dynasty and became a vassal state of the previous dynasty, and the emperor of the previous dynasty gave the Southern Wei a fief and named the king of the Southern Wei as a king with a different surname. Later, I don't know what the reason was, the Southern Wei Dynasty was destroyed by the previous dynasty, and many Southern Wei people were killed, but some Southern Wei people escaped this catastrophe, and then went into hiding. As far as I know, there are Southern Wei people in many places in the Great Zhou."

"The Southern Wei Dynasty surrendered to the previous dynasty, why did the emperor of the previous dynasty rebel and destroy the Southern Wei?" Because of the wrongful extermination of the Pei family, Pei Dingyuan didn't like the previous dynasty. Now I heard that the previous dynasty destroyed the Southern Wei Dynasty again, and I became more and more disgusted with the previous dynasty.

Zhao Yao corrected: "It is not the previous dynasty that rebelled, but the Southern Wei Dynasty."

When Pei Dingyuan heard this, he was surprised: "What, is it that the Southern Wei people have rebelled? Could it be that the Southern Wei people later repented and did not want to surrender to the previous dynasty and raised troops to rebel?"

"The Southern Wei people did not rebel, but when they surrendered to the previous dynasty, they promised to give the previous dynasty a thing, but later the Southern Wei people rebelled and did not hand over that thing to the former dynasty, and the emperor of the former dynasty felt that he was tricked by the king of the Southern Wei Dynasty, and was very angry, and then issued an order to destroy the Southern Wei." Zhao Yao glanced at Pei Dingyuan and said meaningfully, "The things handed over to the previous dynasty should be the things that the people of the Southern Wei Dynasty want to find now."

"It turned out that the Southern Wei people were treacherous." The anger in Pei Dingyuan's heart had decreased a lot, but at this moment he was becoming more and more interested in that thing, "Your Highness, what is it that makes both the Southern Wei Dynasty and the previous dynasty value it so much, is it a treasure?"

Zhao Yao: "When the Southern Wei people surrendered, they offered a large sum of money to the previous dynasty. If it was a treasure, the emperor of the previous dynasty would not be so angry, and he would not easily agree to the surrender of the Southern Wei people."

"What's that?" Pei Dingyuan couldn't imagine what kind of thing could make the Southern Wei people so persistently want to find it. "It can't be a token of the Southern Wei people, right?"

"If it is a token of the Southern Wei people, how could the emperor of the previous dynasty want it?" Zhao Yao didn't tell Pei Dingyuan that it might be a jade seal. It's not that he doesn't believe in Pei Dingyuan, but he feels that if Pei Dingyuan knows about the existence of the jade seal, it won't do him any good. "Maybe it's some kind of artifact that has the effect of prolonging life or immortality."

"Immortal?" Pei Dingyuan was shocked at first, then shook his head and said, "How can there be an elixir in this world, it should be a very special thing."

"It doesn't matter what it is, it has nothing to do with us, and you don't have to care." Zhao Yao had no interest in the jade seal of the country, "Don't check it out, since this thing is so important to the Southern Wei Dynasty, it shouldn't be a good thing, the less you know, the better, if you know too much, it will be dangerous."

"Your Highness, the people of the Southern Wei Dynasty care so much about that thing, maybe that thing is dangerous to the Great Zhou." Pei Dingyuan didn't have a good impression of the previous dynasty, nor did he have a good impression of the Southern Wei people, he was worried that the Southern Wei people would find that thing, which would be detrimental to the Great Zhou. "Your Highness, you also said that the Southern Wei people are dangerous, and we can't ignore them."

"Dingyuan, the Southern Wei people are more dangerous and deceitful than you imagined, this is why I haven't told you about the existence of the Southern Wei people over the years, just because I am afraid that you will be involved with them, and they will put you in danger at that time." If Pei Dingyuan didn't come to Zhao Yao tonight to talk about the Southern Wei people, Zhao Yao would never have been able to tell him about the existence of the Southern Wei people, "The Southern Wei people came to you directly, indicating that they think you won't find out about the Southern Wei, and once they find out that you are investigating the Southern Wei, you will be in danger."

Zhao Yao warned again, "You'd better stay away from the Southern Wei people, the farther away the better. and do not inquire into their affairs."

Pei Dingyuan saw Zhao Yao's face solemnly and reminded him, and his heart sank. He secretly said: Your Highness is like this to the people of the Southern Wei Dynasty

Fear, it seems that the Southern Wei people are really dangerous.

He heard Zhao Yao say again, "Don't be curious about the affairs of the Southern Wei people, let alone show interest. You act as if nothing happened, and the next time the Southern Wei people come to you, you show a cold look, warn him, tell them not to come to you again, and say that you don't trust any Southern Wei people at all."

"The more you show that you don't believe in the existence of the Southern Wei people, the safer you are. As for their desire to help you recover your memory, you can go with them, there is no medicine that can restore your memory."

Pei Dingyuan had always listened to Zhao Yao's words, and nodded obediently: "Your Highness's words, I remember, I will stay away from the Southern Wei people."

"Ugh...... I don't know how the people of the Southern Wei Dynasty know about you?" Zhao Yao regretted it a little now, "I knew that I wouldn't let you restore your surname Pei in the first place." Zhao Yao guessed that the reason why the Southern Wei people were able to find Pei Dingyuan was because Dingyuan's surname was Pei. Although there are many people with the surname Pei in Da Zhou, there are not many people with the surname Pei in the capital. With the temperament of the Southern Wei people, maybe they checked everyone surnamed Pei, after all, they wanted to find the jade seal of the country.

"His Royal Highness asked me to restore the surname Pei, also for my good, so that I can recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors." Pei Dingyuan thought to himself, in fact, he didn't care if his surname was Pei or not. Rather than having the surname Pei, he wanted His Royal Highness to give him the surname.

"The stigma of the Pei family has been washed away because of the accident of the Yuan family, and the Pei family is finally no longer a thief, and the Pei family who was killed back then can also turn a blind eye." After the Yuan family was exposed to colluding with the Xiongnu, the Yuan family's framing of the Pei family was also exposed, and the emperor easily washed away the Pei family's grievances. However, the ministers of the DPRK and China have no good impression of the Pei family, although the Pei family did not collude with foreign rebellions, but the Pei family was very prosperous and arrogant back then, whether it is in the history books, or the reputation of the people is very poor, which is also the reason why the first emperor ascended the throne when he gave so many people, but did not give the Pei family ***.

"However, it has always been rumored that the Pei family has treasures, so I didn't let you worship them openly. Besides, if you let people know that you are a descendant of the Pei family, you will fall into constant trouble and danger." The more Zhao Yao thinks about it now, the more he feels that it is really too dangerous to let Dingyuan's surname Pei. "Fortunately, you are in Lingnan now, and no one will associate you with the Pei family." He was now worried that the Southern Wei people would not let Dingyuan go easily, after all, Dingyuan was their only hope of finding the heirloom jade seal. Alas, the fact that Dingyuan is a descendant of the Pei family is estimated to not be able to hide it for too long.

What Zhao Yao thought of, Pei Dingyuan also thought of

"Your Highness, why don't you give me the surname now, so that no one will think that I may be a descendant of the Pei family."

Hearing Pei Dingyuan's request, Zhao Yao was very surprised.

"You're going to change your last name?"

"Your Highness, I won't tell you, I don't care if my surname is Pei or not, and I don't care if I am a descendant of the Pei family." Pei Dingyuan said sincerely, "It was Your Highness who saved me back then, and it was you who gave me a new life."

"If you don't care, I'll give you a last name."

"I don't care, it's my honor to be given a surname by His Royal Highness."

Seeing Pei Dingyuan's glowing gaze, Zhao Yao couldn't help but smile: "In this case, then I'll give you a surname." He thought for a moment and said, "Let's be surnamed Liang." It is not appropriate to have his surname Zhao, after all, it is a national surname.

Pei Dingyuan didn't expect Zhao Yao to give him the surname Liang, which was an extremely honorable thing for him.

"Thank you, Your Highness, I will be called Liang Dingyuan in the future."

Zhao Yao didn't expect that letting Dingyuan be surnamed Liang would make him so happy.

"I hope your ancestors don't blame me."

"Your Highness is for my good, and they can't thank you too late." After becoming Liang Dingyuan, his heart suddenly became very relaxed. The previous fear and uneasiness towards the Southern Wei people also disappeared.

"Dingyuan, you don't have the surname Pei, are you really okay?"

"It's fine." Liang Dingyuan remembered that the Southern Wei people seemed to be very attached to that thing, and hesitated and asked, "Your Highness, if the Southern Wei people want to restore the country, will it be detrimental to the Great Zhou?"

"Nature is disadvantageous." The ambition of the Southern Wei people was not to restore the country, but to control the Great Zhou and make it their own.

Liang Dingyuan's face immediately became nervous, "Your Highness, since the Southern Wei Dynasty

People will be detrimental to Da Zhou, so we can't sit idly by."

"The Southern Wei people are not something you and I can solve, so you better not worry about it." Zhao Yao said again, "The capital knows about the existence of the Southern Wei people, and the reason why they didn't make a move against the Southern Wei people is because they don't want to startle the snake."

Hearing Zhao Yao say this, Liang Dingyuan felt relieved.

Zhao Yao told Liang Dingyuan a few more words, and then asked Tongxi to send him back.

Waiting for Liang Dingyuan to leave, Zhao Yao let out a long sigh: "Alas...... The people of the Southern Wei Dynasty are really haunted."

Zhao Yao tapped lightly on the table, his expression thoughtful: I have to find a way to make the Southern Wei people in the swamp mansion disappear. However, this is not a complete solution.

There are not many Southern Wei people who know Dingyuan's background, or only the Southern Wei people in Swamp Mansion have found out Dingyuan's background. If that's all it takes, it's okay to get rid of the Southern Wei people in Marsh Mansion. However, if the Southern Wei people outside the Swamp Mansion knew Dingyuan's background, there would be no way.

Zhao Yao called out the Dark Guard Armor and instructed them to investigate the Southern Wei people in the swamp mansion to find out if they had passed on Dingyuan's background to other places.

Alas, I hope that the Southern Wei people in the swamp mansion did not pass on Dingyuan's life experience.

Since the people of the Southern Wei Dynasty found out about Dingyuan's life experience, they should also find out that he saved Dingyuan back then. The Southern Wei people should know by now that he knows about their existence, which is not a good thing. It is hoped that the Southern Wei people in the swamp province did not spread the news about it.

Zhao Yao stretched out his hand and pinched his eyebrows, and said with a headache, "It's difficult." Forget it, no matter what, first eradicate the Southern Wei people hiding in the swamp mansion.
