Chapter 659
Until one day he overheard the conversation between Concubine De and her confidant nanny.

"Is your empress planning to keep the eldest prince a secret? This old servant always has Concubine Mei in mind when he looks at the eldest prince."

"I am injured and unable to conceive. The whole harem knows it. He'er Conghui will naturally inquire about his own life experience secretly. Concubine Mei tried her best to give birth to him back then. Now this child is thinking about Concubine Mei, which shows that this is the case. A child is kind and righteous."

"But empress, concubine Mei... this old servant is worried that the eldest prince will take revenge on you if he finds out about it in the future."

"Excuse me and this palace? No way, this palace believes in He'er, not to mention that Concubine Mei was in good health back then. If the Holy Majesty hadn't intervened in it, how could she have passed away? Speaking of which, they are all beautiful women..."

"Zhao Shangshu favored concubines and became the support of the third prince's party. Back then, His Majesty was angry and blamed Concubine Mei..." Concubine De sighed softly, and finally said nothing more.

Murong He was standing under the window at that time, and he heard this conversation clearly.

"At that time, I was thinking, how heartless and ungrateful is father, that he would do something to a woman who just gave birth to a son for you?" Murong He sneered while playing with the dagger in his hand, "father , can you tell Erchen, what were you thinking at that time?"

"You...you rebellious son..."

"what--"

Murong He suddenly raised his dagger and thrust it firmly into Murong Ze's shoulder!
"Father, you owe too much to your mother and concubine, and you owe too much to my son. Today, my son will ask for some interest first!"

Murong Ze let out a cry of pain, and finally fell to the ground, completely unconscious!

Xiao Jingyuan, who had been witnessing the whole process, took a step forward at this moment, looking at Murong He with eyes full of fascination, "What do you plan to do next?"

"Grandpa Huang worked so hard to make that will. Since the imperial father's throne was stolen, I will naturally take back what belongs to me!"

In the 21st year of Chengze, the Emperor Murong Ze of the Dayong Dynasty issued an imperial edict to punish himself, and revealed to the world the edict left by the former emperor when he was dying. When the content of the edict spread across the country, the whole country was in an uproar.

Chengze Emperor Murongze felt guilty, so he invited himself into the Longevity Hall in the palace to accompany the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha for the rest of his life, trying to reduce the sins he had committed.

The eldest prince Murong He successfully ascended the throne as emperor, and changed the name of the country to He Jing. In the first year of He Jing, Murong He made Xiao Jingyuan, the only orphan of the Xiao family in Jinling, the queen, and Concubine Zunde the queen.

On the second day of Emperor He Jing's ascension to the throne, it began to rain in more than [-] cities that suffered from drought during the Yong Dynasty.

The common people obeyed it as auspicious, and they were even more convinced by the newly enthroned Emperor He Jing.

In a blink of an eye, it is November, the autumn wind blows, and the weather turns cooler.

Inside an inconspicuous private house in Wintersun City.

Tang Huanxi looked at Xiao Baorui who was frowning and said nothing, and asked worriedly, "Xiao Baorui, what are you going to do next?"

"Back then Murong Ze used me to numb the late emperor's vision, and now his son has used me to numb his vision. I never thought that I would be so easily used by others!" Xiao Baorui said expressionlessly. One sentence, but the eyes clearly flashed with strong dissatisfaction!
"That's right, human nature is to bully the weak and fear the strong." Tang Huanxi took over the conversation with a cold gleam in her eyes, "It's just that there is one thing that I haven't figured out all this time."

"Young lady, are you referring to the late emperor's edict?"

"Well, according to what Murong He said, the late emperor really liked him, the eldest grandson of the emperor, but the late emperor was not yet sixty years old and in good health, so he probably wouldn't have made a will so early, including when Murong Ze killed him. The first emperor ascended the throne smoothly, there must be something hidden in it!"

The first emperor led one hundred thousand soldiers and horses to successfully defeat the previous dynasty, and later created the Great Yong Dynasty, worked hard to govern, and was deeply loved by the people.

How could such a hero with both civil and military skills be easily killed by his own son?

So Tang Huanxi felt that there must be some hidden secrets hidden in it!

"Baorui, now that Murong He has ascended the throne and Jing Yuan has become a country again, if we want to do something, it will be difficult." Tang Huanxi looked at him with deep eyes, and there was a gloomy glint in his eyes. mood.

Although Xiao Jingyuan was not Xiao Baorui's biological sister, Xiao Baorui was raised in the Xiao family in Jinling for so many years, and they also had contacts with Xiao Jingyuan later, so he always had a brother-sister affection for her.

"My suggestion is that you keep a low profile first." Qin Xiao looked at the expressionless couple and smiled slightly, "I know you must have a lot of doubts in your heart. If you have doubts, then wait until the time is right to go Solve the confusion!"

Tang Huanxi nodded lightly, thought for a while, and finally showed Xiao Baorui a relieved smile.

"That's right, Xiao Baorui, now we have one more important thing to do than to find out the late emperor's last edict."

"Wife mean?"

"Previously, Murong Ze always thought that the late emperor decided to pass on the throne to you in the last edict, so that's why he posted the reward notice, but now the truth has been revealed, we should go home and have a look, and save my sister-in-law and the others. Worry." Tang Huanxi thought for a while, and then spoke out her plan.

Murong He is a smart person, if he wants to set himself up as a wise and virtuous king, then the next thing he will do is to amnesty the world!
Sure enough, as Tang Huanxi expected, three days later, Murong He issued an order to amnesty the world, and there were no more reward notices for her and Xiao Baorui on the walls of the cities.

"If we start now, we should have time to return to Yunshui County before the New Year's Eve." Tang Huanxi hugged Xiao Yijin, pointed to the topographic map on the table and said, "The canal will freeze over soon, Xiao Baorui , shall we start before the canal freezes over?"

"okay."

The couple packed up and decided to go home three days later.

Qin Xiao personally sent the two of them out of the city.

In a blink of an eye, it was the twelfth lunar month again.

Yunshui County, Tang House.

While making cotton clothes, Qian said to Zihan beside her, "I received a letter from your second uncle and aunt ten days ago. Seeing that the day is getting colder and colder, why haven't they come back?"

"Mother, don't worry, it's probably freezing cold, and I wasted some time on the road. I believe that my second uncle and aunt will return safely with little Yijin." Qian Zihan silently put down the book in his hand, He poured another cup of hot water into the cup in front of Qian, and smiled gently.

"Well, as long as they can come back safely, it will be fine. Seeing that Xiao Yijin is almost half a year old, I don't know if he has grown taller. For the past six months, he has been running around with his parents. Did you lose weight..."

Thinking of Xiao Yijin who was still a small group when she left home, Qian's heart was full of worries.

She didn't come to her senses until the knock on the door suddenly sounded...
