Chapter 550 Southern Liang
Southern Liang...
Xie Jingyu's heart skipped a beat when he heard these two words.
The Southern Liang Dynasty perished twenty-two years ago.
The word "destruction" may not be accurate, because Dongliang and Nanliang have the same blood flowing in their bodies.
Twenty-two years ago, less than a hundred days after the new emperor of Southern Liang ascended the throne, the emperor's uncle, who was also the younger brother of the previous emperor of Southern Liang, killed his nephew and took his place.
In order to distinguish them, the Liang Dynasty before the regicide was called the Southern Liang, and the Liang Dynasty after the seizure of the throne, which is today's Liang Dynasty, was called the Eastern Liang.
No wonder my father said that he had seen my mother on the wanted list. The Emperor of Dongliang killed the emperor to seize the throne, so how could he allow his niece to live in the world? He would definitely kill her and wipe out the root of the problem.
But how could my mother end up in the Ning Dynasty, lose her memory, become the adopted daughter of the Jiang family, and marry my father to bring good luck?
With too many doubts in his mind, Xie Jingyu became more and more worried about the safety of his mother.
My mother had a deep blood feud. She knew what would happen if she returned to Dongliang and was discovered, but she still chose to go back regardless of the consequences.
Xie Jingyu asked, "When did father know the identity of mother?"
Now that you've asked, you must get to the bottom of it.
Since the prince had said it, he no longer concealed it. "Twenty-two years ago, Prince Yong and I went to Southern Liang to celebrate a birthday. That's when I met your mother. Your father thought that he would only meet your mother once in this life. But he never expected that after returning to Ning Dynasty after celebrating the birthday, he would learn that the King of Dai of Southern Liang was planning a rebellion. When your father arrived, your mother was fleeing with your cousin, the young crown prince of Southern Liang, and they almost died in the sea of fire..."
But after just a few words, Xie Jingyu already felt the danger.
Xie Jingyu asked, "The Prince of Gaoyang in Dongliang is the little prince?"
The prince said, "My father was in Southern Liang, and he and the then Crown Prince of Gaoyang hit it off right away. He was unhappy with the Dai King's seizure of power, and it just so happened that his Crown Princess was about to give birth. Your mother had been raised in luxury and couldn't take care of a child, so I gave your cousin to the Crown Prince of Gaoyang..."
Xie Jingyu asked, "Did my father ask my mother to marry you as the Jiang family's adopted daughter to bring good luck?"
The prince said, "Father, if you want to know, can you divorce your mother and send her back to the Jiang family?"
At that time, he was the prince of Jingbei. He knew that there was no possibility for him and Princess Nanliang. He had never even revealed his true face in front of the princess. The princess had no idea who saved her.
But no one can predict what fate is.
After rescuing the princess in Nanliang, the prince entrusted her and the young prince of Nanliang to King Gaoyang and returned to Ning Dynasty.
However, on his way back to Beijing, he was assassinated and poisoned, leaving him blind.
Just when he went to Nanliang to rescue people, the old prince arranged his marriage. After he became blind, the old prince wanted to marry him to bring good luck, but he was blind at that time and was already a disabled person. The Jiang family was unwilling to marry their legitimate daughter to him to bring good luck, so they wanted to bring back the concubine's daughter who was sent to the farm to pray for the old lady.
But the concubine had a scar on her face. Even if he was blind, he was still the prince of Jingbei Palace. How could the Jiang family dare to send a disfigured concubine to him to bring him good luck? On the day the Jiang family went to pick her up, it happened that the concubine of the Jiang family saved the blind princess who fell off a cliff.
The princess was stunningly beautiful. Although she had lost her memory and could not remember who she was, her temperament was far superior to that of the Jiang family's daughter. So Old Lady Jiang stuffed the princess into the bridal sedan and sent her to the Jingbei Palace.
The prince lost his sight and the princess lost her memory.
One could not see, and the other did not recognize her. During that period, the prince often made trouble for the princess and forced her to leave on her own initiative.
However, just as the princess left the Jingbei Palace, the prince's eyesight recovered. He knew that he had married the person he had always dreamed of. What could he do? He had to bring her back even if it meant sacrificing his reputation.
The prince didn't know how the princess came to Ning Dynasty. It might be that when she left that day, the princess heard what the secret guard reported to him and thought he was in Shengzhou, so she went to Shengzhou to find him. As a result, she had an accident in Shengzhou and became his princess.
But the specific reason can only be known by asking the princess.
The princess was Princess Yihe of Southern Liang. The prince did not dare to let the envoys from Eastern Liang see the princess's appearance. He had no choice but to give the princess some muscle softening powder that would not hurt her body but would prevent her from leaving the house.
The Dongliang envoys would never come to the Jingbei Palace to see the princess.
This matter was kept secret and remained undiscovered for twenty years, but was eventually discovered by his own son and daughter-in-law.
The prince said, "I have told you everything I should tell you."
Xie Jingyu asked, "How did father persuade Prince Gaoyang to give up looking for my mother?"
The prince said, "Father didn't try to persuade him to give up. He simply told him that Prince Li of Dongliang was seriously injured and unconscious, and that Dongliang was attacking the Ning Dynasty. His disappearance had caused war between the two countries, and he should put an end to this disaster. Moreover, he wanted to avenge his father's murder and seize the throne. This was a good opportunity that should not be missed."
"As for your mother, she has lost her memory for many years and can't help Prince Gaoyang. It's not too late to recognize each other as aunt and nephew after the big thing is done."
The prince handed the mask to Xie Jingyu and said, "Bring your mother back."
Xie Jingyu's eyes fell on the mask. "Mother left without even waiting for Mo'er Ran'er to be born. Do you think Mother will come back with me so easily?"
The prince knew that the princess was stubborn and it would not be that easy.
But he trusted his son more.
This is not a problem for him.
The prince said, "Wan'er and the child are still waiting for you in Kyoto. Bring your mother back to reunite with them as soon as possible."
Having such a troublesome father and mother, he and Wan'er had to endure the pain of separation.
Xie Jingyu took the mask and turned to leave.
The prince breathed a sigh of relief.
Sometimes it's better to have some soft spots.
Xie Jingyu was raised by the prince himself. His character and means are far beyond the reach of ordinary people. There is no one in Dongliang who can control him.
It would be fine if he could bring the princess back successfully, but if the princess insisted on staying to help Prince Gaoyang to take revenge, Yu'er would have no choice but to help.
The prince has already anticipated what kind of bloody storm Dongliang will face next.
Xie Jingyu entered the military camp and rode away on horseback without even drinking a cup of tea.
Chen Li was happy about the arrival of his brother-in-law and asked the kitchen to prepare fine wine and delicious food to welcome Xie Jingyu.
As a result, when the meal was ready, he went to look for his brother-in-law, but was told that he had left.
Chen Li thought he was hallucinating, "Gone? What do you mean by gone?"
This question confused the young general.
Once you're gone, you're gone.
Riding a horse.
Shen Li went to find Shen Ji, "Father, why did my brother-in-law leave? Didn't he come to the border to fight?"
"Don't ask about your brother-in-law's affairs."
Shen Li was almost suffocated to death.
If there is no war, why would my brother-in-law leave his sister and two little nephews and run to the border?
Is it blowing sand?
He also wanted to ask his brother-in-law whether his wife, Princess Jiangling, had given birth, and whether it was a son or a daughter.
At least wait until he finishes asking questions before leaving.
Xie Jingyu was not in such a hurry when he came. He thought it would take three to five months at most to find his mother. However, it turned out that his mother had a blood feud with him, so he was really worried that it would take two years to go back.
No wonder in Shen Wan's previous life, he had such a good relationship with the Prince of Gaoyang, so good that he lent him troops and rebelled to overthrow Xiao Yun.
The setting sun stretched his shadow very long.
