late night song

Chapter 78: A Thousand Times of Sorrow
It was almost dawn when Gu Yuchu secretly sneaked back to Linyue Pavilion. She was lying on the bed, carefully recalling every word, every pause, and every tone that the old prince of Zhenxi said, feeling confused. .

Did the second master, Wei Chihong, really do something so harmful to nature and harm the country and the people back then?

In addition, does the Yuchi clan have any other unknown dark history?

The old king of Zhenxi has Yuchi's blood flowing in his body. Why did he not save his mother's family when he saw it in trouble?
Could it be that the family's overthrow was really caused by one's own fault and retribution as the old prince said?

Is such a rotten lintel really worth fighting for it?

Countless questions filled her mind. She didn't dare to think about it, but she couldn't help but think about it.

But the only thing Gu Yuchu can be sure of is that no matter whether the family's old history is true or false, slander or rumors, the lives of eight people in the family of 170 are truly innocent and unfortunate!

Besides, right now, these are obviously not the most important.

Besides Concubine Xian, who else is the enemy of the Yuchi clan’s extermination?Do you know about the frame opening?
This is probably the most troublesome and concerning thing for Gu Yuchu.

At first, she only thought that her uncle Yuchilin was an upright man and had many enemies in the court. Later, he was implicated in Qi Sheng's rebellion, and was framed by political enemies, and the whole family was convicted.

At the same time, all the clues given to her by Qi Jian pointed directly to Concubine Xian. She also personally strangled many of the accomplices of the year, sent important figures who were closely involved in the old case to prison one by one, and eliminated Concubine Xian's right-hand man step by step.

But as the key witnesses were questioned one after another and died without any evidence, and then Concubine Xian was sentenced to death due to the night banquet, but without causing any ripples in the old case, she began to believe that what happened back then was not as she imagined. Simple, but just because of her belief in Qi frame, she kept comforting herself that it was not that he would not help her get revenge, but the time had not come yet.

Later, Prince Ning and the Queen pressed forward step by step, making her suspicious.

Moreover, in the face of various conspiracies and frame-ups, Qi Jie was able to avert danger every time and make peace. In addition to his unparalleled resourcefulness, these are more like the right time, right place, and harmony.

After the reappearance of Concubine Yi's handwriting, Emperor Ming's ambiguous attitude and slight neglect of him, his uncharacteristically blatant tit-for-tat confrontation with Qi Zhi, and his indifference in retreating to the mansion all appeared to be extremely tacit. In the end, he deceived the sophisticated and steady queen and forced her to After taking the risk, he was imprisoned in the palace and stripped of the Zhenxi Army's [-] troops. At this point, Qi Jie took control of the Ping Qi Army, gathered the Nanchang Army, and the Dongding Army, and monopolized the Dongqi Army.

If you think about it carefully, this tacit understanding between father and son is not limited to this time.

From the time when the King of Qin went east to support the Dongding Army to fight against the rogue bandits, he had a chance encounter with General Lin Feng, who had fallen out of favor with Emperor Ming due to his beloved daughter's mistakes. After the assassination by Jing Qionglong, he took advantage of Zhang Mengyi's pillow wind to gain control of the Qidu city defense patrol. He had the power to dispatch the army at will, then removed King Hong's mother and son at the Four Kingdoms Night Banquet, was arranged to marry the daughter of the King of Nanchang, who had 15 troops, and even had the Glazed Golden Pagoda stolen and turned over King Ning's army, thus clearing all obstacles to the inheritance.

And every step of this was not only due to Qi Jian's careful planning, but also seemed to have the tacit approval or support of Emperor Ming, otherwise everything would have been too smooth sailing.

Are their father and son really as dissatisfied as they appear?Or has he secretly promised the country a long time ago?

Although Zhenxi Laowang and Zhang Mengyi told two stories, one point was unanimous, that is, Emperor Ming had been wary of the Yuchi clan for a long time, and tried his best to get rid of them.

If this is the truth, then Concubine Xian and the Queen are just pawns in the hands of Emperor Ming.Uncle Yuchi Lin's private destruction of evidence was a trap set by Emperor Ming himself. His real purpose was to tie the Yuchi family to Qi Sheng's rebellion, so as to catch them all.

Gu Yuchu couldn't understand. If Qi Jie had a clear mind about all of this, then why did he send himself to Sanxing Academy to hone himself repeatedly and push himself one step closer to revenge?Then why marry their sisters?And why would you deceive her?
Or maybe she fell into the trap of Zhang Mengyi and Zhenxi Laowang, so what was their purpose?Why do you doubt your identity?

It seems that the story of the Yuchi clan did not just disappear with the wind as she imagined. It not only lives in her heart, but also lives in the chat and laughter room of some people behind closed doors, in the suspicion of right and wrong, and even endlessly. In endless calculation.

But she still couldn't figure it out. If that was the case, with Zhang Mengyi's sincere feelings for Qi Zhi, it was understandable that he planned to alienate her from Qi Zhi, but what was the purpose of Zhenxi Laowang?
The more Gu Yuchu thought about it, the more she couldn't sleep. She kept rubbing the jade bell in her hand. She had stolen it by sneaking into Prince Rong's mansion after leaving Zhenxi Prince's Mansion.

Every time she saw King Rong before, she always saw him wearing this jade bell around his waist. It must be a personal item, so the queen must know it.

Regarding the grudges and checks and balances between Emperor Ming and his relatives, she must listen to the Queen's words to see if they are consistent with the old king of Zhenxi, so that she can find out the flaws and solve the doubts.

But time is very urgent for her. Although the queen is imprisoned in the palace and cannot contact the Zhenxi Palace, it is the best time to find out the truth. But if time goes by, it is inevitable that there will be collusion between them. I'm afraid she won't be able to find any clues.

But the problem came again. The forbidden areas of the palace were not allowed to enter unless summoned.

Although she has the false reputation of being the concubine of King Qin, she still has a chance to go to the Datian Hall if she holds the order and requests an audience. But if she enters the palace in such a swagger, not to mention the negative impact is unpredictable, what should Qi frame think?If you seek the slightest bit of truth, it’s worth it, but if you get nothing, it’s even more of a failure!
What should we do? !

Gu Yuchu barely managed to sleep for an hour. She woke up from the first second when the sunlight shone through the window of Linyue Pavilion, so she hurriedly asked Liansheng to fetch water to wash herself.

"Oops." Liansheng rubbed his neck and brought hot water, looking very tired.

Gu Yuchu didn't want to think about whether he was too heavy-handed last night, so he quickly freshened up briefly, had some breakfast, and walked to the kitchen of the side courtyard with Liansheng.

She personally ordered the chef to make several medicated meals suitable for first-time pregnancy to strengthen the mother's body and strengthen the fetus. In order to prevent anything from going wrong, she kept supervising, but she didn't touch any of the ingredients. She even specially dragged Zhu Xuetai to the kitchen to collect blood. Yan's little maid refused to let her go. After the medicinal meal was ready, she ordered her to carry it back to the snow platform.

"Princess, you are a weasel paying New Year's greetings to the chicken." Liansheng approached Gu Yuchu and said quietly.

Gu Yuchu glanced sideways at the little girl and asked with a pun, "Who is your master?"

Liansheng stuck out her tongue and felt very guilty after being asked. She was indeed ordered by the prince to serve the princess well. Of course, in addition to that, she also wanted to report every move of the princess in detail.

She also knew that although the princess was tolerant and casual, her heart was as clear as a mirror. She might have known early on that she had been secretly informing the prince, but she did not blame herself for being such a cheat. She was infinitely grateful and secretly vowed to be loyal to the prince. So loyal to the princess.
