Hearing this, Zhao Pu glanced at Wang Yuanheng meaningfully and said, "It's just that what happened after that is related to your life experience."

Wang Yuanheng's heart sank, and he hurriedly stood silently and looked at Zhao Pu. Zhao Pu thought for a moment and said slowly: "After Taizong ascended the throne, he began to personally conquer the Northern Han and Khitan according to what he said before, and the Northern Han was defeated not long after.

But this Khitan is extremely difficult to deal with, and it has been in vain once or twice, and in particular, two things that happened in the meantime have made me suspicious.

Wang Yuanheng asked in surprise. Zhao Pu looked at Wang Yuanheng and said slowly, "This happened when Taizong drove the Khitan for the second time, and when he left, he first transferred Zhao Defang, the fourth son of Taizu who was guarding the capital, to other places, and then took Zhao Dezhao, the second son of Taizu, with him to conquer the Khitan;

Wang Yuanheng asked anxiously. At that time, Taizong led hundreds of thousands of troops to besiege Youzhou, the capital of Khitan.

When the two armies were in a stalemate, one day the news of Taizong's disappearance suddenly came out of the army. So, someone proposed: Zhao Dezhao, the second son of Taizu, was enthroned as emperor.

Unexpectedly, just a few days later, Taizong, who escaped safely, returned to the army. At this time, just in time for Zhao Dezhao to take a prepared list of people with meritorious service and ask Taizong to reward him.

Taizong immediately said angrily, 'Wait until you become the emperor and then give a reward!'Unexpectedly, after His Royal Highness Dezhao returned, he hanged himself.

Two years later, news came that His Royal Highness Defang, who had been transferred to the post of Yin of Xingyuan Prefecture, had died of illness, and soon after, Zhao Dezhao had been proposed to ascend the throne in the army.

Taizong was furious and immediately ordered all Zhao Dezhao's family members to be beheaded. But on the day of the beheading, he found that his young son and the nursing mother Wang were missing.

At that time, although we and the old Taizu sighed, they were helpless. Later, when I was sorting out the relics of Taizu, I accidentally found a book of martial arts secrets for practicing kendo in the collection of Taizu.

So, I began to secretly practice according to the exercises in the secret book, I didn't want to, and a few years later it was already a great success, but at that time, I saw that Taizong in the imperial court reused eunuchs and squeezed out Taizu's old ministers, so I moved the idea of returning to the mountains and forests.

Speaking of this, he paused and said, "Because I remember that when Taizong ascended the throne, I was also involved; now that Taizu's old ministers have been excluded, and his two sons have died one after another, I feel quite guilty, so I passed on all the swordsmanship to my son, and asked him to use the pseudonym Ye Xiao with the meaning of 'all the long-cherished karma', and go incognito in the rivers and lakes, and by the way, look for the missing young son Zhao Weiming and his nursing mother Wang of His Royal Highness Dezhao.

''Have you found it?'' Wang Yuanheng asked. Zhao Pu didn't speak, only glanced at Wang Yuanheng, turned around and walked out.

Wang Yuanheng hesitated slightly, and hurriedly followed. As soon as he went out, he saw Zhao Pu standing at the door of another attic and beckoning to him.

Subconsciously looked up at the attic. I saw that the attic was no different from the "Baoyue Xuan" in appearance except for the two big characters of 'Tingfeng Pavilion' written on the door, so I hurriedly walked over.

After entering, Zhao Pu did not stay downstairs, and led Wang Yuanheng directly to the second floor.

The furnishings are simpler here. Except for a few portraits on the walls, there is nothing. Wang Yuanheng carefully studied the portrait on the wall.

I saw that one of them was a picture of a sword-eyed and star-eyed, heroic young general, and the one next to him was actually his mother Wang.

Just thinking about it, Zhao Pu patted Wang Yuanheng on the shoulder, pointed to the portrait of the military general and said, "Child, hurry up and give your father His Royal Highness Dezhao a salute" Wang Yuanheng suddenly understood, and immediately bowed to the ground, 'Dong Dong' knocked his head three times in a row.

After Zhao Pu helped Wang Yuanheng up, he said, "The one next to it, needless to say, you also recognize it, is your nurse Wang."

''Then why are their portraits here?' Wang Yuanheng was puzzled. In order to find you, I and the dog traveled all over the country, but for more than ten years, there was no progress, and later, the old man was getting older, so he left the dog alone to go to find you.

But he has never seen Wang, and he doesn't know how you will look when you grow up, but I think it must be about the same as your father, His Royal Highness Dezhao.

So, from memory, I drew the faces of your father and your nurse, Wang, for identification.

While the two were talking, one of them, 'Deng Deng', came up. As soon as Wang Yuanheng saw the person, he hurriedly gave a salute and said, "Ye Xiao's senior" Ye Xiao did not answer, but looked at Zhao Pu and said, "The child is fortunate not to be dishonored, and now he can give an account to his father" Zhao Pu did not answer, and pointed to another painting, and said to Wang Yuanheng, "This person is extremely important, you must remember his appearance."

Wang Yuanheng looked at the words and saw that the person in the painting had a white face and a sly look, especially a huge black mole on his eyelids.

Zhao Pu pointed to the man on the painting: "This person's name is Wang Jien, the chief eunuch in the palace back then; he should have been the most trusted person of Taizu, but unexpectedly, after Taizu's funeral, he actually did a great rebellion; it is precisely because of this incident that you have lived a life of exile for many years."

'Oh?' Wang Yuanheng was puzzled. After a pause, Zhao Pu said slowly, "On that day, after Taizu's funeral, Empress Song, who arrived in a hurry, immediately sent Wang Jien to invite your father or His Royal Highness Defang to go.

Unexpectedly, Wang Jien did not look for them, but introduced Zhao Guangyi, the king of Jin, into the palace.

Speaking of this, Zhao Pu shook his head and said, "It's no wonder that Taizong later favored this eunuch so much, not only let him participate in political affairs, but also handed over the commander of the forbidden army to him.

''This thief is so rebellious, where is he now?' Wang Yuanheng said angrily. Zhao Pu sighed lightly: "This guy later somehow suddenly resigned from his official position and disappeared without knowing his whereabouts; and he disappeared with a large number of Taizu's books; among them, the most precious one was a martial arts secret book from the Southern Tang Dynasty Palace, which was regarded as a treasure by Taizu.

For several years, he was not heard from again. As he was talking, Ye Xiao next to him suddenly patted Wang Yuanheng on the shoulder, and said coldly, "You have to be careful of the Wanxian Gang", Wang Yuanheng was stunned.

Just wanted to ask a question, but Zhao Pu had already bowed deeply and said, "Today's son knows his own background, and you are the grandson of Taizu Di, but if you want to re-ascend to the great treasure, my father and son and a group of old ministers will definitely do their best to help Gongzi fulfill his wish!"

Wang Yuanheng did not answer immediately, for a long time, but asked rhetorically, "It is said that Taizu was originally a brave and martial man, but how could he have a great interest in reading?"

Zhao Pusi pondered for a moment, "This matter is related to an experience of Taizu when he was a teenager. He replied. 'Oh?

Wang Yuanheng immediately became interested. Zhao Pu looked at Wang Yuanheng and said slowly, "Back then, when I was working with Taizu, I also asked Taizu about this matter.

Taizu said that it had something to do with a madman he rescued in Bianjing City when he was a teenager: on that day, he had slipped into the city to play.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the city, he met a group of evil young men beating a crazy man on the street. He immediately stepped forward, and beat away the evil boy with a fist and kick, and when he saw that the man was indeed pitiful, he was moved by compassion for a while, so he invited him to the restaurant for a feast.
