Chapter 50 The Second Prince of the Emperor

Xie Qingyun asked the Heavenly Monk to come and stay with her in order to sleep.

She had always had frequent nightmares, and any soothing incense didn't work.

But now she finds that as long as there is a celestial monk, those nightmares can be suppressed.

More effective than any soothing incense.

Tian Monk was quickly invited over.

When he walked in the door, he saw Xie Qingyun on the bed looking at him eagerly, and stopped for a moment.

"?"

Xie Qingyun frowned and her tone became fierce: "What are you doing?"

The Heavenly Monk said: "Your Majesty must learn to sleep by himself."

Xie Qingyun said with a cold face: "Are you sure?"

Let’s see if she doesn’t chop off the heads of those bald donkeys at White Horse Temple!

The heavenly monk seemed to have considered this, sighed, walked in as if resigned to his fate, and sat next to the bed: "The poor monk is reciting sutras for your majesty."

Xie Qingyun thought he was verbose and didn't answer. She directly grabbed his collar and dragged him to the bed.

Then he put his hands around Tian Monk's waist and rested his head on his chest.

The monk's body was a little stiff and he didn't move.

After a while, I heard Xie Qingyun's breathing gradually calming down.

Really just to sleep.

Tian Monk carefully lowered his head to look at her. The girl's skin was as good as snow and her nose was high. Even with her eyes closed, she was breathtakingly beautiful.

She was sleeping peacefully at the moment. Her long eyelashes covered the light green under her eyes, but they could not hide the fatigue on her face.

The heavenly monk reached out and wanted to touch her cheek.

The hand stopped in mid-air, and finally slowly took it back.

Still...that's all.

..................................................................

Xie Qingyun woke up early the next morning and looked up into those clear eyes.

He actually guarded her all night.

Xie Qingyun was immediately in a good mood. She leaned her head closer and kissed Tianseng gently.

"What reward do you want for being so obedient?"

Tianseng didn't avoid her kiss, nor did he respond positively. After she kissed him, he lowered his eyes unnaturally.

"Is there any reward?" he asked.

This answer was somewhat beyond Xie Qingyun's expectations.

She just asked casually.

Before, the Heavenly Monk would have shaken his head and refused.

But as a reward, even if he wanted to give it, she was not a stingy person.

Xie Qingyun nodded readily: "As long as you don't leave me, you can do whatever you want."

"..."

The Heavenly Monk said: "I want to know your Majesty's past."

"What?" Xie Qingyun was a little confused.

It wasn't until the person opposite repeated what Shi Cai had said that Xie Qingyun finally realized what he wanted.

He wanted to know her restricted area, that past that could never be mentioned.

Xie Qingyun looked at Tianseng with a complicated expression.

Before this, no one had ever dared to ask her this question.

Maybe those people were afraid of death, or maybe they thought they didn't have the ability to soothe her emotions like the heavenly monk.

Xie Qingyun lowered her eyes and was silent for a long time.

Finally raised his head: "Okay."

Although she didn't know why he asked, she believed him.

Xie Qingyun sorted out her words, took a deep breath, and then spoke slowly.

"The person you want to ask is named Xue Chuan."

"You may have heard this name from Runliu, or from my imperial uncle."

"He was my uncle's classmate at Taixue, and he was also friends with my elder brother, so he often visited the palace when I was young."

"He is very talented in literature. Whether it is articles or poems, he can be trusted at his fingertips. In addition, he has a sense of propriety and knows how to advance and retreat. At that time, everyone in the palace liked him, even the queen mother..."

When Xie Qingyun said this, she choked up and closed her eyes to try to calm down.

Tian Monk took the initiative to hold her hand.

Xie Qingyun paused, finally calmed down, and continued: "Even the Queen Mother praised Xue Chuan. Others carry swords, but Xue Chuan's pen is as sharp as a knife."

"He was on good terms with everyone and treated me well, so I always regarded him as a half-brother, trusted him and respected him." "Until later, when my mother passed away, my father refused to mourn, and I didn't even think about it. So I asked him to go to Luoyang to invite my grandmother and uncle to come and persuade my father to mourn."

"However, grandma didn't wait. Only the three hundred elite soldiers led by Xue Chuan were waiting."

"He took my princess order, rushed into the palace, and killed my father and brother directly."

It's like it happened yesterday.

Xie Qingyun never forgot every detail.

She spoke calmly, suppressing the deep and heart-wrenching pain rolling in her heart.

Tianseng felt that the hand he was holding was gradually becoming cold at this moment.

He patted Xie Qingyun on the back to help her calm down.

"Why did Xue Chuan rebel?" Tianseng asked.

Although he inquired further, his voice made people feel calm involuntarily.

"He didn't rebel." Xie Qingyun paused and lowered her head.

Even Uncle Huang and Runliu didn't know what happened that day.

The so-called rebellion was actually made up by her.

Make it up to deceive the world, and also deceive yourself.

The real truth is not like that...

"Xue Chuan actually didn't come to rebel, he came to take revenge." Xie Qingyun closed her eyes.

"He is not a member of the Xue family, but is my imperial uncle."

If we want to trace this matter back, we have to go back to the era of the Supreme Emperor.

The emperor has two sons. The prince is disabled, but he is kind and loving to the people.

The second son was brave and courageous, and followed the Supreme Emperor through life and death.

Once the Supreme Emperor went on a personal expedition, he left the prince to guard the capital as usual, and took his second son with him.

I thought that I would be able to return to the court after a month or so, but I didn't expect that this time the battle would be very difficult.

Seeing that they were about to be defeated when life and death were at stake, the Supreme Emperor called his second son to him and solemnly said four words to him: The prince is ill.

The prince is ill.

The second son remembered these four words and risked his life to win the war for the Supreme Emperor, officially establishing Da Qi's status as an insurmountable power among neighboring countries.

But after returning to the capital, the emperor broke his promise.

He didn't mention the prince again.

Even when the prince died early, the emperor would rather choose the prince's eldest son to succeed him than the second son.

Later, when the late emperor succeeded to the throne, his second son rebelled and ended up having his entire family executed.

Only the second son, who was still an infant, changed his name and surname and was adopted by the Xue family, so he escaped the disaster.

That son is Xue Chuan.

"Xue Chuan knew that today was a peaceful time and there was no possibility of rebellion, so he changed his goal to assassinate his father."

"In order to protect my father, the emperor's brother was stabbed several times by Xue Chuan, and he lost his life first."

"He then killed his father."

"I was only eight years old at the time, but he could have killed me directly."

"But he didn't."

Xie Qingyun said calmly: "He handed the dagger to me."

Xue Chuan hoped that the hatred from his predecessors could end with them.

But Xie Qingyun couldn't do it.

I can't let go, and I can't let go of my hatred.

Xie Qingyun thought at that time that she might as well kill herself with the dagger, go to her father and brother to apologize, and return the throne to Xue Chuan.

However, Xue Chuan forcefully grabbed her hand and stabbed the dagger into his heart.

Xie Qingyun was extremely calm, and there was no trace of fluctuation in her eyes.

It was completely different from the initial panic.

"Since he wants me alive, I naturally want to avenge my father and brother."

"So I killed all the Xue family."

At this point, she couldn't help but laugh, but that smile was heartbreaking.

"I want those Xue family members to go to Huangquan and tell Xue Chuan that as long as I live one day, the hatred will never end."

"I want him to regret killing my father and brother."

"I want him to regret it and kill himself with my hands."

 I went to the dental hospital. My tooth hurt so much, and I had to carry bricks at the construction site under the sun. I will update it first today.
