Qi Xu's frankness surprised people and made them realize something at the same time.
No wonder he was able to not be swayed by the past relationship between grandfather and grandson, and objectively examine the suspicious points about the Empress Dowager!
Without waiting for Wei Yunlan to speak, Qi Xu's next words caught everyone off guard.
"If I'm not mistaken, Miss Wei should have also been enlightened and guided by dreams?"
Although it was a question, the tone was firm.
In the dream, although the Wei family was also exiled to Beiguan, some members of the family died, some disappeared, and Miss Wei was left alone in the Jinyang Marquis Mansion in the capital, and did not embark on the road of exile with the Wei family.
Everything is different from what it was in the dream.
And all these changes started when Miss Wei left the Jinyang Marquis Mansion and embarked on the road of exile!
It's not surprising when you think about it.
After all, he only got a piece of jade left by Master Gao Tianshi to have such an adventure. After all, Miss Wei is the descendant of Master Gao Tianshi.
My great-grandfather once said that the Heavenly Master is a master who can understand the will of heaven.
If it weren't for Dayong, he could have lived a long life and enjoyed his old age.
If he knew that after his death, the Great Yong he had spent all his energy to protect would be so unworthy of his descendants, he would definitely not be willing to accept it...
Those dreams were warnings, maybe it was Master Gao who did this for his descendants!
He did this thanks to the Wei family and Miss Wei.
"Your Highness."
"Jinghong."
Wei Yunlan took a deep breath and said, "Now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from you. You have guessed a lot, and I, like you, also know in advance many things that have not yet happened."
After a pause, Wei Yunlan continued: "But it was not a dream, but a real experience."
Since the person in front of him had told him everything, Wei Yunlan didn't plan to hide anything anymore.
The most important thing is that only by clarifying the situation of the Northern Barbarians invading the capital ten years later can we follow this clue as soon as possible and catch all suspicious people who endanger the interests of Dayong.
"Previous life, let's call it previous life."
Wei Yunlan sighed, "I was trapped in the Marquis' Mansion. I didn't know my parents were on the road to exile. When I found out, they were already on the way. The people in the Marquis' Mansion of Jinyang gave me a chronic poison, which made my health deteriorate. I died in just one year."
Qi Xu held the horse under Wei Yunlan, slowed down his pace, sat on the horse's back, turned his head to look at the person beside him, his eyes full of heartache.
"Perhaps it was God's blessing from my great-grandfather that although my body is dead, my spirit is immortal. My soul has been floating over the Jinyang Marquis' Mansion for a full ten years."
Qi Xu's eyes suddenly widened in surprise.
There is such a miraculous thing in the world!
After the shock, the pain in his eyes deepened.
I can't help but feel sad for the people around me.
No wonder he always felt that Miss Wei had a calmness that was inconsistent with her age and experience. It turned out that in her "previous life", Miss Wei suffered so much pain and torture alone, and even after her death she had to watch her enemies lingering in front of her day and night.
"In the previous life, the Jinyang Marquisate had always been working for the Second Prince. The old Marquis was obsessed with the gentleness of his concubines, and Chen Feng was incompetent and untalented. What they did was mainly led by Xue Linglong. That woman was also a bit strange."
Wei Yunlan did not waste time talking about the shit that happened in the Marquis' Mansion. He only described in detail what Xue Linglong had done for the Second Prince over the years, those wonderful ideas, and the major events that took place in the capital during those ten years.
No one in the mansion would mention such trivial matters, and she wouldn't be able to hear them.
According to the timeline, it should be shortly after her death...
At that time, apart from a slight increase in grain prices in the capital and a number of riots by refugees in various places due to natural disasters, there were no other obvious disturbances.
In this life, many things are stimulated earlier than in the previous life.
"I don't know if the Northern Barbarians' expedition this time was also caused by an unexpected event, but Qiulin Nanxing had to be on guard. In his previous life, he was the one who led the troops to attack the capital. The Northern Barbarian Chanyu gave him the title of king, and the 100,000 Northern Barbarian cavalrymen obeyed his orders."
Wei Yunlan spoke in a heavy tone, and Qi Xu frowned after hearing it.
"What about the eldest and second princes of the Huyan tribe?"
"He is not well-known and has never been mentioned." Wei Yunlan paused and continued, "At that time, the respect shown to Master Nanxing by the Northern Barbarian warriors was no less than that shown to the Chanyu, and even more so."
Qi Xu's breathing stagnated.
I understood it instantly.
Qiu Linnanxing's ambition was greater than he imagined.
He not only aims at the position of Chanyu, but also wants to control the Northern Barbarians and Dayong in his hands!
What a big ambition!
Seeing that Qi Xu obviously understood what he meant, Wei Yunlan then told him some information and doubts he had learned.
"In my previous life, I thought that the Jinyang Marquisate worked for Concubine Ling and the Second Prince, and also had dealings with the Liang family on the border, because the Empress Dowager secretly placed her bet on the Second Prince."
"After coming to the North in this life, I realized that I was wrong. The Queen Mother probably doesn't really support the Second Prince. She is just using the name of supporting the Second Prince to secretly pave the way for the Northern Barbarians by borrowing his power."
As for who is paving the way for the Northern Barbarians.
Needless to say, Qiu Linnanxing, who was the most powerful person ten years later in the previous life, is the most suspicious.
However, it is said that he was born with a body shape that was not like that of a northern barbarian.
"Miss Wei, are you suspecting that Qiu Linnanxing and the Queen Mother are related by blood?"
It's about royal bloodline.
This speculation is extremely outrageous.
Qi Xu did not blame Wei Yunlan for his bold words, but followed this line of thought and thought seriously, "The Qiulin tribe once sent a royal son to Dayong as a hostage..."
"The Northern Barbarians' Chanyu at that time was from Qiulin, and the Qiulin tribe was one of the most prosperous tribes among the Northern Barbarians. The late emperor led his people all the way from Yueheng Mountain to Beiguan. The Northern Barbarians complained bitterly, so they had no choice but to send Qiulin Chanyu's only son to the capital."
"Later, because the Qiulin tribe was no longer as powerful as before, the position of Chanyu fell to someone else, and no one cared about the hostage sent to the capital."
"At that time, my grandfather was out there expanding the territory. In addition to personally attacking Xiliang and Beiman, he also often visited various places. He didn't spend much time in the capital."
Zou Yun had also talked about this past event with Wei Yunlan, but it was far less detailed than what Qi Xu described now.
Calculating the time, that happened decades ago.
The late emperor reigned for more than forty years, and spent almost the first half of that time on military campaigns. Later, when his eldest son, now Emperor Xiaoming, was about to get married, he began to live in the capital and no longer went out.
The hostage from the Qiulin tribe lived in Dayong for a full ten years. Calculating the time, it was between the tenth and twentieth years of the late emperor's reign.
It is said that "Prince Nanxing" is much younger than the eldest and second princes Huyan, and a few years older than the third prince.
He is about the same age as Qi Xu and Wei Yunlan.
Judging from his age, it is impossible for him to have any direct relationship with the Queen Mother.
But his father, grandfather.
But it’s hard to say.
