Shocking past events
Zhao Feiyan had already been in the palace for ten days! The Tiance Mansion had only just discovered the whereabouts of the mastermind during the day, which temporarily ruled out her suspicion of plotting and assassinating the crown prince.
The madam's appearance at this moment clearly showed that she had no idea what was going on. Except for the four people from the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion, all the people present were veterans in handling cases, and it was clear at a glance that she really knew nothing.
Basically, tonight was a waste of time!
Although this hidden stronghold was eliminated, the most crucial person was not among them!
After ordering everyone in Chunhua Tower, including the guests, to be taken away for questioning, the four people from the Anguo Marquis Mansion were the first to leave.
Changsun Wuwo still had to continue checking everyone and did not leave with them.
There was no conversation along the way until they entered the mansion and called Lu Ren to the study. He recognized Nanny Bai as soon as he entered the door!
"White Rose! It's you!"
Nanny Bai was also a little excited. Meeting an old friend, all kinds of emotions were lingering in her heart.
It turns out that this Bai Qiangwei was not the maid that came with Yue Lingxi's mother as a dowry, but the personal maid of Yue Lingxi's father Yue Fan!
"Young Master, you have grown up and now have a great influence. According to the will of the late Madam, I can now tell you everything about your father Yue Fan!"
After Bai Qiangwei said this, Lu Ren and Yue Lingxi found it difficult to control themselves!
"The late Madam? My mother?" Yue Lingxi asked anxiously!
Bai Qiangwei slowly recounted a past event that shocked everyone present.
Yue Lingxi's father, Yue Fan, is nominally the second son of Marquis Anguo, but in fact he is the only flesh and blood of the late emperor left in the world!
The late emperor was not childless in his early years, but for some unknown reason, his children would die within half a year after birth. At first, he thought it was due to his own congenital deficiency that affected the child's foundation.
However, after drinking with his close royal friend, Marquis Xian'an, and lamenting the fleeting youth and his own old age and childlessness, he unexpectedly favored a maid who was sent to serve him.
Unexpectedly, she became pregnant. The late Marquis of Anguo was a very thoughtful person. After secretly reporting to the late emperor, he suggested that the maid be placed in the marquis's mansion to wait for the birth of the baby.
Afterwards, the maid gave birth to a son, who was secretly raised in the Marquis's residence. Strangely enough, the prince who grew up outside the palace was actually strong.
The late emperor began to doubt the people around him and the concubines in his harem. The child did not dare to return to the clan openly! He grew up as the unpopular second son of the Marquis of Anguo.
Later, he used the excuse that Yue Fan was outstanding in martial arts and was chosen by the late emperor to be the commander of his guards. In fact, he was personally teaching Yue Fan the ways of the emperor, waiting for a favorable opportunity to confirm his status!
This opportunity was the same as when the emperor personally led the expedition against the Yehe tribe! The late emperor, despite opposition from all the civil and military officials in the court, personally led the expedition, intending to use his illustrious military achievements to push Yue Fan out of this inexplicably weak area outside the capital.
As a result, the Yehe tribe, which had already completely collapsed, took control of the position of the late emperor's carriage with the help of a traitor within the empire.
And under the guidance of the traitor, he dodged countless imperial troops and launched a surprise attack on the holy carriage that was originally well protected!
Yue Fan risked his life to rescue the late emperor in the chaotic army and returned all the way to the rear army. However, under the guidance of a traitor, the rear army went in the wrong direction and was trapped to death in the vast mountains and forests!
Yue Fan could only take the late emperor all the way back to the Great Wall, and then return to the outside of the Great Wall to gather the troops, but the war situation deteriorated so quickly that it was beyond everyone's imagination!
Except for a small number of troops who broke through, almost all of the 300,000 imperial troops died at the Black Water!
The late emperor's reputation was damaged after this battle, and he died suddenly and inexplicably not long after returning to the capital.
Although Yue Fan holds the imperial edict and the imperial seal left by the previous emperor, he has no status and no sufficient power. He can only choose to quietly track down the traitor who caused this series of changes!
At this time, Yue Beiqiu entered the capital with great force. With his powerful strength and the support of many princes and dukes, he pushed Yue Hua to the throne in one fell swoop!
Suddenly, rumors spread in the capital that Yue Beiqiu and his son were the spies behind the defeat of Yehe! All this aroused serious suspicion among the generals who returned to Yehe.
Yue Beiqiu's position was originally unstable, and his roots were not in the capital. For a moment, he felt like he was about to collapse!
Unexpectedly, he cut the Gordian knot and directly took up the butcher knife, killing and eliminating the survivors of the Yehe battle on all kinds of false charges!
Yue Fan was naturally among those to be purged, so he could only disappear and wander around the world, continuing his investigation in secret.
It was at this time that he met Yue Lingxi's mother, Lu Siniang, by chance, and they later got married and had children.
But at this time, Yue Beiqiu, who had been tracking the whereabouts of the imperial seal, discovered that the late emperor had left an edict of succession while searching the secret palace files.
Although he didn't know the specific content of the edict of succession, he was just close to the royal family, so Yue Beiqiu began to suppress the royal family with all his strength, in fact, to eliminate future hidden dangers!
During this process, Yue Fan appeared in sight. As the leader of the late emperor's attendants, he had served the late emperor throughout the defeat of Yehe and the death of the late emperor. He was undoubtedly the person most likely to know the whereabouts of the imperial edict and the imperial seal!
After a series of chases, Yue Fan was forced into a desperate situation. Yue Lingxi had already been born at that time. In order to preserve hope for the future, he chose to return to the Anguo Marquis Mansion alone, and the Anguo Marquis personally handed him over to Yue Beiqiu!
In exchange for the Anguohou family being safe, there would be someone in this world who could bring Yue Lingxi into the royal family in the future! Yue Fan himself swallowed the poison and died in front of Yue Beiqiu!
From then on, the Marquis of Anguo retired to his home, not caring about worldly affairs. He took in many concubines and strictly forbade anyone in his family to discuss Yue Fan, until Lu Siniang brought the young Yue Lingxi to his house!
Marquis Anguo took Yue Lingxi into his mansion in the name of his eldest son Yue Chen's illegitimate son and gave him royal status!
Lu Siniang herself relied on Yue Fan's old subordinates and the remaining court masters loyal to the previous emperor to enshrine Yue Fan as the hidden prince and formed a hidden guard organization.
On the one hand, he continued to investigate the traitors within the empire and search for the truth behind Yehe's defeat. On the other hand, he continued to plot the assassination of Yue Beiqiu!
God helps those who work hard. After years of infiltration and hard work, Lu Siniang finally has the ability to kill with one blow in the capital.
When Anguohou's family was wiped out and Yue Lingxi was exiled to the frontier, Lu Siniang had no more scruples and finally succeeded in killing Yue Beiqiu, the enemy who killed her husband, in Beijing!
But she was also seriously injured. Having finally gotten what she wanted, she entrusted Bai Qiangwei before her death. If Yue Lingxi had a future, she should do her best to assist him. If not, she should not disturb Yue Lingxi's life!
Bai Qiangwei received kindness from Yue Fan and his wife, and vowed to repay them with her life. She has been hiding in the capital, looking for opportunities to continue assassinating the head of the Tiance Mansion in the capital.
Yue Lingxi's rapid success in Youzhou in a short period of time gave her a reason to continue her determination to assassinate Yue Chengqiu, on the one hand to continue the hatred.
On the other hand, he had to continue to create a situation of chaos in the world for Yue Lingxi, giving him the opportunity to take advantage of the situation!
