Chapter 167 Mo Nanzhou's Identity
These four people are the key figures who can prove that Mo Nanzhou is the bloodline of the Li family.
Back then, Concubine Li was stunningly beautiful and was also the sister of Prince Yonglin. She was favored by the late emperor as soon as she entered the palace. However, because of this, she became a thorn in the eyes of others.
Eventually she was sent to the cold palace.
In the cold palace, she discovered that she was pregnant. In order to protect the child, she refused the late emperor's visit. She knew that once she left the cold palace, she would not be able to survive, and neither would the child.
Only Prime Minister Ji Fengnian, the late emperor's eunuch Fu Jiu, and Concubine Li's brother, Prince Yonglin, knew about this matter.
As soon as the child was born, Fu Jiu took him out of the palace and handed him over to Ji Fengnian. Ji Fengnian even gave up his position as prime minister and pretended to be dead to accompany the seventeenth prince.
But Ji Fengnian was old and suddenly fell ill, so he was unable to take care of the child. In the end, the child was sent to the Mo family as the concubine of Prince Yonglin, and he has lived as the second son of the eldest branch of the Mo family ever since.
Therefore, he is Mo Beiyuan's cousin, not his biological brother.
He was patient and concealed his shortcomings, and was sent to Xuanyue Academy to learn how to govern a country, but everyone hoped that he would never need these lessons.
After Mo Beiyuan helped Li Yeliang and Duan Ya seize the throne, Mo Beiyuan thought he could live a smooth life from then on, but at this time, he discovered that Duan Ya had other intentions.
Duan Ya didn't know that the food, soldiers and weapons she asked Mo Beiyuan to stockpile would eventually be used to help Mo Nanzhou seize the throne.
Mo Beiyuan is not the chess piece in Duan Ya's hand. She and Li Yeliang are the chess pieces in Mo Beiyuan's hand.
Mo Nanzhou was unwilling to be the emperor, he would rather give it to Mo Beiyuan. Mo Beiyuan believed that he could only lead an army but not govern the country.
Seeing that his brother was unwilling, Mo Beiyuan said, let Duan Ya do it, and he led the Mo family back to Yanzhou to avoid the world.
However, Mo Nanzhou saw the price Duan Ya made Zhao Jing pay in order to win. She not only wanted Zhao Jing, she wanted too much.
If this continues, only the people will suffer, and her actions will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the countries in Kyushu and trigger more wars. Therefore, Mo Nanzhou finally made up her mind.
After the Mo family entered Yanzhou safely, a group of people came to welcome them.
But Mo Nanzhou hid himself and waited quietly for Mo Beiyuan to come and greet him.
Duan Ya was surprised that she didn't receive any news from the capital while she was in the suburbs.
Shangguan Li sent a team to check, but no one came back.
So he sent two more teams, but what they got was his most proud Qingzhou army.
This army no longer has the surname Li, but the surname Mo.
The army arrived outside the camp and came to invite the eldest princess into the palace.
Duan Ya knew that she would surely die if she went there.
Shangguan Li came in and reported: "Your Highness, the Princess, the Qingzhou army..."
"I understand," Duan Ya said calmly, "Tell them to tell He Yuan that I want to stay in Qinglan Garden for one night."
Mo Beiyuan sneered in the study of the main hall: "Now, you are still trying to use these things to control me? Ridiculous."
Qinglan Garden is where the two got engaged, but also where they broke up.
"Brother, why bother talking to her? I'll go!" Mo Haoyu didn't buy her tricks.
"You go and take care of her. There's no need to bring her back. I don't want to see her. Oh, by the way, tell her that she will be buried in the Jiang family cemetery with her husband." Mo Beiyuan said calmly.
When these words were spoken, Mo Haoyu was shocked.
His brother is quite cruel.
Mo Haoyu received the order and went to see Duan Ya, and told her Mo Beiyuan's words word for word.
Duan Ya remained calm and said simply, "How ruthless! I expected everyone's betrayal, but I never thought he would."
Mo Haoyu was very impatient and waved outside the tent.
The person who came in was Shangguan Li, holding a cup of tea in his hand.
He placed it in front of Duan Ya and whispered, "Your Highness, Princess, you don't like wine, so I used tea instead. Don't worry, there will be no pain."
"Okay, I know your abilities, but I've taken your antidote for all poisons. Does it have any effect on me?" Duan Ya asked Shangguan Li, touching the edge of the teacup.
"Your Highness the Princess is joking. Where can there be such medicine? No matter how good the doctor is, it is impossible to make it." Shangguan Li answered her.
"You lied to me. Who are you? I see, you're more than just Yuan's man."
"The princess is smart. My original name is Jiang Li. The general promised to bury you in my house, but I don't think you deserve it." Shangguan Li's face changed.
"Ah! So it's the Jiang family. As expected, no one from the Jiang family should be spared. It's all because of my soft-heartedness that I caused this."
"You've killed so many people, and this is just a cup of tea. It's really a bargain for you. Please!"
She picked up the tea gracefully and drank it all in one gulp.
After a while, Mo Haoyu saw her leaning over the table and was about to go forward to check, but Shangguan Li stopped him and took Duanya's pulse himself.
"Oh! He's already dead! Just give him one more blow! Even chopping off his head is fine! Anyway, I'm the only one, and this evildoer must die!" Mo Haoyu became more and more impatient.
Shangguan Li suddenly stood up and saw a scar on Duan Ya's wrist that shouldn't have appeared.
He turned the man over and examined him.
"What's wrong? You're so jumpy!" Mo Haoyu also came over.
"This is not Duan Ya!" Shangguan Li exclaimed.
His hands groped the woman's face for a long time, and then he peeled off a layer of skin like peeling an orange.
"Mr. Yu!" Shangguan Li called out.
Mo Haoyu also saw that there was another face under this skin.
He lifted Shangguan Li up and threw her to the ground, demanding, "Where's Duan Yaren? This is the attendant beside her!"
Shangguan Li ignored Mo Haoyu, but got up from the ground and held Yu Jun's body in his arms.
"Why? Why? Why did you have to take her place? It's not worth it! It's not worth it! You could have lived! You could have lived!"
Mo Haoyu was almost going crazy. After seeing this scene, he probably understood.
Shangguan Li fell in love with Yu Jun. When the Qingzhou army besieged the city, Duan Ya asked him to release Yu Jun.
Of course he knew that Yujun had been with the eldest princess for more than ten years and must not be released, but he was reluctant to let her die, so he had no choice but to hide her and wait until the situation was settled before releasing her.
He didn't know that Yujun at this time was no longer Yujun, and Duanya was no longer Duanya.
Mo Haoyu immediately rushed to the place where Shangguan Li told him about the Tibetans, and there really was a person there with the same face as Yu Jun.
He breathed a sigh of relief, but when he tore off the skin, he found that it was not Duan Ya.
Shangguan Li committed a serious mistake and lost his lover, and then he drank poison and died.
When Mo Beiyuan heard this, he thought it was normal. How could she not have prepared a way out?
As early as when Mo Beiyuan entered the capital, she had already left a substitute behind.
At that time, I wanted to be safe, not escape.
The Qingzhou army circled the city, so she escaped.
"Chase her along the waterway and don't let her enter Lianzhou. We already had to deal with her army in Lianzhou, and now there's probably also one in Sizhou." Mo Beiyuan was very calm, as if he had expected this.
He finally understood why Feng Aoqing didn't leave Sizhou, because Sizhou was no longer his reserve army but Duanya's reserve army. In other words, the Sizhou Army was no one's army, and he was just looking at whose army he should serve.
