Gu An'an had no idea who these children were.
Even after Jiang Yong'an told her everything, she still couldn't quite believe it.
Jiang Mingyi is actually a descendant of General Han, while Zhu'er is the daughter of a princess from the previous dynasty.
What about Mingxu and Bao'er?
Who are these two siblings?
“Mingxu’s grandfather was a royal physician. When the emperor later learned that Princess Jinse had concealed his pregnancy from him, he had his entire family executed.”
Gu An'an felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing this. These children all had intricate connections with the Longqing Emperor.
"The reason why Imperial Physician Huang helped cover it up is because his son once saved a palace maid when the capital fell and raised her outside. But this palace maid was not a real palace maid..." Jiang Yong'an paused, "In fact, she was a little princess from the previous dynasty, but she was not as favored as Princess Jinse. She had been living in the cold palace for a long time, and even the imperial physicians in the palace were not very clear about it. After the Huang family was raided, Mingxu and his mother escaped the disaster, but his mother did not live for long."
They are descendants of the previous dynasty.
Gu An'an glanced at it, "What do you owe the previous dynasty?"
There's nothing wrong with it, it's just that sometimes things do happen too coincidentally.
Not getting an answer, Gu An'an asked about something else, "What about Bao'er?"
What's going on with Bao'er?
"She and Mingxu aren't siblings, are they? This child's birthday is way too close to Mingxu's."
“No.” Jiang Yong’an sighed. “Mingxu’s mother was taken care of by a palace maid since she was a child. It was this palace maid who helped her escape from the palace.”
very good.
Even though she was just the daughter of a palace maid, Bao'er was still connected to the imperial palace.
Gu An'an laughed, "Jiang Yong'an, don't you think this is a bit absurd?"
"It's absurd."
Over the years, he had wondered how this could have happened.
But the deed was done, and his old friends entrusted these children to him.
Would he just stand by and watch someone die?
"So what do you plan to do?"
Gu An'an was curious to know what Jiang Yong'an planned to do next.
"A rebellion?"
rebel.
The word came out so easily that Jiang Yong'an felt that there was nothing this woman wouldn't dare to say or do.
Jiang Yong'an hesitated slightly, "I cannot disregard the plight of millions of people for my own selfish interests."
Although the Longqing Emperor on the dragon throne was ruthless towards the generals and disloyal to the thousands of soldiers.
But that's their personal feud; we can't involve millions of ordinary people in it.
Gu An'an laughed when she heard this, "So what do you plan to do? Go and make a scene in the imperial court and demand an explanation from our emperor?"
Jiang Yong'an is a good person, and Gu An'an has never misjudged him.
But this man was also deeply mired in a quagmire of gratitude and morality.
How he should take revenge will be a major problem.
Clearly, Jiang Yong'an has no ideas at the moment.
Gu An'an didn't intend to offer him any advice. "It's getting late, General, please return."
She turned around and went back to sleep.
Gu An'an thought she wouldn't be able to sleep after hearing so many horrifying stories today.
Jiang Mingyi was single-mindedly focused on achieving success in the imperial examinations and official career, unaware that the emperor in the Golden Palace harbored a deep-seated hatred for him.
If he truly knew the secret behind it, what choice would he make?
Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
Gu An'an felt once again that knowing so many secrets was really not a good thing.
Indeed, it's better to be a carefree person.
After walking a few steps, Gu An'an suddenly remembered something, "Before, no one knew General An's background, but this time you exposed your whereabouts in front of the Fourth Prince. If he follows the clues to investigate, wouldn't he find out everything about you? At that time..."
Gu An'an thought for a moment, could the background of those children still be concealed?
Especially Zhu'er, who looks somewhat like Princess Jinse. Once exposed to the public, this child's identity will probably be the first to be revealed.
For a moment, Gu An'an's brows furrowed in worry.
Seeing her like this, Jiang Yong'an comforted her, "Don't be afraid. He won't rashly confront me now. Give me some more time. Once I find that mine, there might still be a chance for things to turn around."
Once the iron ore mine is found, I will have the opportunity to forge weapons.
By then, they would have the resources to confront the Longqing Emperor.
Otherwise, if he were to rise up now, even if he were a great general, how many people would listen to him?
"Then we shouldn't tell Mingyi about his background for now?"
Jiang Yong'an nodded, "Not yet."
"What about the Fourth Prince?"
“He won’t,” Jiang Yong’an said calmly. “Dead men don’t reveal secrets.”
dead.
Gu An'an's eyelids twitched when she heard this word.
To treat a prince as if he were dead, the person in front of him must truly be a great general, a general whose life is on his shoulders, which is why he is so indifferent.
"Oh, right, there's one more thing."
Gu An'an looked at Jiang Yong'an, "What exactly does Lin Zixing mean? Did he already know your identity?"
Otherwise, why would this young imperial brother-in-law be so determined to stay in Anping County?
"And what about Lin San?"
Many things seem to be connected, related to the previous dynasty, the deceased General Han, or rather, the emperor in the palace.
Gu An'an had drunk too much, and her hands were trembling slightly. She tried to grab something to steady herself, but in the end, she grabbed Jiang Yong'an.
The man's arms were strong and powerful, seemingly offering her temporary support.
But what if this arm is removed?
Gu An'an felt that fate had played a huge joke on her. What was even more ridiculous was that she had actually been on the same boat as Jiang Yong'an from the very beginning, and she didn't even have the chance to save herself.
But can we blame Jiang Yong'an for this?
He was unaware of it; he's a victim.
"Lin Zixing's sister did not enter the palace voluntarily either." However, he couldn't say for the time being whether this person was friend or foe.
Gu An'an laughed, "It seems you're not very capable as a general, you don't even know this."
If you said that to anyone else, they would probably be furious.
Jiang Yong'an, however, remained calm and composed, saying, "I have no talent for command. The reason I became a general was merely to appease the army."
“I don’t think so.” Releasing her grip, Gu An’an looked intently at the man before her. “General An is truly capable of keeping this a secret for so many years.”
Jiang Yong'an looked at the person who spoke, whose breath was as fragrant as orchids, and suddenly felt a restlessness in his heart.
He recalled the lingering taste of alcohol on his lips, his gaze towards Gu An'an burning with intensity, his voice trembling slightly as he asked, "Are you scared?"
