Emperor Yangsheng suddenly said, "Your problem is most likely caused by the Spirit Clan."

"Um?"

"You've never been to the Spirit Clan, have you? Those country bumpkins, they're always pretending to be gods and ghosts. They're quite capable, but extremely arrogant. They basically don't contact the outside world, and they and the outside world don't get along. Back then, because I fell in love with your mother, I was targeted by the entire Spirit Clan."

Yin Jin'an: Someone like you has neither looks nor abilities. Apart from having a good family background, you are nothing!

"She turned against her entire clan for you, betrayed her clan, and you still betrayed her. You're a terrible person!"

"..." Emperor Yangsheng said angrily, "I am your father!"

"I feel ashamed! You are an ungrateful wretch."

"I didn't kill Wei Mu. How many times do I have to say it? Her health was failing, and the Chu siblings did something to her. By the time I found out, she was already dying."

Emperor Yangsheng jumped up and down, saying that Wei Mu had stolen the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry of the Ling tribe and helped him defeat the Uyghurs and the Liao Dynasty. However, the Ling tribe demanded compensation from him, requiring Emperor Yangsheng to send a thousand laborers every year, or they would send the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to destroy the Western Xia.

"Have the laborers you sent returned?"

"I don't know."

Yin Jin'an wanted to kick him over.

We need a thousand laborers every year. Don't you know whether they'll come back or not? Are you just sending them there to die?

What a load of bull!

“They provided labor for three years, but your mother disagreed with giving them any more, and the two sides fell out. Around that time, you suddenly started having health problems. Your mother went to the Spirit Clan and brought back a bottle of medicine. After that, the two sides lost contact.”

"I know, you don't care about your people, and she's kind-hearted and couldn't stand it anymore. — You caused trouble, and we both took the blame, which indirectly proves you're no good!"

"..."??(◣д◢)??

Yin Jin'an felt that her illness might be related to the Spirit Clan.

But how credible are Emperor Yangsheng's words?

He asked Emperor Yangsheng, "What kind of person is Wei Mu?"

Emperor Yangsheng said that Wei Mu was very beautiful, almost perfect. Yin Jin'an's appearance resembled Wei Mu's, but she was not as beautiful as Wei Mu.

Wei Mu is not only beautiful, but also kind-hearted, and she saves people everywhere.

Yin Jin'an sneered, "The Chu siblings killed Empress Dowager Wei, why don't you deal with Chu Jiang and Chu Hanhua?"

"I cannot abandon the country for the sake of one person. I am in a high position and have no other choice..."

"What kind of man can't even protect his wife and children? And he still has the nerve to spout nonsense? Get out!!"

"..."

Why do you have to resort to swearing when you're just talking?

After Emperor Yangsheng left, Jiutian said to Yin Jin'an, "Second Uncle, Granny Wei is an old woman brought by Empress Dowager Wei. She might know something. Why don't we ask her?"

Yin Jin'an patted her head: "Okay, I'll listen to Princess Longxiang."

Jiutian said she didn't want to be a princess; she was a Taoist priest.

Yin Jin'an questioned Granny Wei in the Imperial Study, directly asking her how she was poisoned.

Why does the poison sometimes take effect on a full moon night?

"Neither the imperial physicians nor the shamans can diagnose my illness. Do you know why?"

Tears streamed down Wei Mama's face as she shook her head and said, "This old servant doesn't know."

"Could you tell me about my life from birth to when I was one and a half years old? In detail."

Granny Wei was Wei Mu's personal nanny. She was overjoyed by Xiao Jin'an's birth, as she loved children.

"His Majesty was born very handsomely. On the day of his third-day celebration, the high priest and elders of the Spirit Clan all came."

Granny Wei's memories, bit by bit—

The high priest said that Xiao Jin'an was born with seven stars under his feet and was destined to be the future ruler of the world. However, he was destined for a great calamity. If he could escape this calamity, he would rule the world. If he could not, he would perish and fall.

The elders said he was the important guide who brought the Spirit Race into the world.

Fearing being framed or envied, the high priest covered up the seven stars on the soles of Xiao Jin'an's feet.

When Xiao Jin'an was one year old, she fell seriously ill, but fortunately she survived.

After that, when Xiao Jin'an was one and a half years old, she started to develop red eyes, and Wei Mu would give her a pill each time.

When Wei Mu was four years old, he suddenly died. No one knew where the pill was. Later, Wei Mu’s mother went to Mount Ling to ask the high priest for the pill, but the high priest had already died.

After listening to this, Yin Jin'an realized that his illness was inseparable from that high priest.

Could it be that Wei Mu poisoned himself?

"Do any members of the Eldar race suffer from this disease?"

"This old servant doesn't know, this old servant has only been to the Spirit Clan once." Granny Wei suddenly burst into tears, "Your Majesty, you are now the supreme ruler, avenge the Empress!"

"I will kill the entire Chu clan."

"No... The Empress Dowager was murdered by the retired emperor, the royal family, and those ministers in court."

Granny Wei said that Wei Mu was very smart and capable, but she demanded that Xiao Zuo be monogamous for life. Xiao Zuo initially agreed, but after Wei Mu helped him defeat the Uyghurs and the Liao Dynasty, Xiao Zuo ascended the throne and began to take concubines.

Wei Mu was furious and refused to let Xiao Zuo into her palace. Xiao Zuo then spent his time with the other concubines, including Chu Hanhua.

One after another, he was favored by her. Chu Hanhua even brought people to Wei Mu's palace gate to provoke him. Wei Mu was extremely disappointed and was about to take Xiao Jin'an back to the Spirit Clan.

Xiao Zuo was afraid of the Spirit Clan, so he said many nice things to Wei Mu and coaxed her not to leave for the time being. Not long after, Wei Mu suddenly fell ill.

Then Emperor Yangsheng and Chu Hanhua brought several Taoist priests to the palace to exorcise the ghost. Soon after, Emperor Yangsheng sent someone to take Wei Mu out of the palace, saying that he needed to avoid evil spirits.

"Later, this old servant never saw the Empress again. Xiahou Yan and Huo Dao bribed passersby to find out about the Empress's grave. She was buried halfway up the mountain and was not included in the imperial mausoleum. There wasn't even a tombstone."
