Feng Changye glanced sideways at the back garden of the general's mansion, which was full of flowers.
It was not until his mother angrily said this that he realized that General Zhu Huaining had the blood of Xiyuan people in his veins.
Zhu Huaining's mother was a princess from one of the twenty-seven tribes in the AD era.
When the tribe rebelled, the poor princess was seriously injured and fled from Xiyuan to the border of Daning.
Coincidentally, he was rescued by the previous general Zhu Qilin.
General Zhu Qilin did not know the identity of the princess at that time. He just thought she was an ordinary citizen of Xiyuan whose family was destroyed by war.
Because she was gentle and beautiful, General Zhu Qilin fell in love with her and took her as his concubine.
Unexpectedly, half a year later, the princess's brother quelled the war and secretly sent someone to tell the princess to return to the tribe.
Although the princess had feelings for General Zhu Qilin, how could this love be stronger than her longing for her hometown?
She took advantage of General Zhu Qilin's patrol to escape from the military camp and returned to Xiyuan with the help of tribal warriors.
But the princess did not have a good life after returning to Xiyuan.
Because she only found out that she was pregnant after she returned.
Her brother, who was the chief of the tribe at the time, wanted to marry her to a warrior of the tribe. So he forced her to abort the child of the man from Daning and forced her to marry the warrior from Xiyuan.
She refused to do so and would rather be disfigured than give birth to the child.
As a result, she was rejected by her brother and fell from a high-ranking princess to a slave.
After enduring a few months of hardship, she gave birth to a child and named him Huaining.
I miss the happy six months in Daning.
I miss my husband Zhu Qilin.
She lived a hard life in Xiyuan with her children, raising and feeding horses every day and doing all the dirty and tiring work.
When her son Huaining was six years old, her tribe was unfortunately annexed by another tribe.
In the Western Yuan Dynasty, tribes would fight and annex each other, and the defeated tribes would not only face being enslaved, but they might also be massacred if they encountered brutal generals.
Unfortunately, she encountered a brutal general at that time.
Thousands of them were tied up, and the cruel general led his soldiers on horseback to circle around them from a distance, shooting an arrow at them every time they circled, treating them like prey for fun.
She and her son nearly died in that brutal massacre. Fortunately, at the critical moment, her husband, General Zhu Qilin, descended from the sky, killed those Xiyuan soldiers, and saved dozens of survivors.
General Zhu Qilin recognized her and brought her and her son back to the military camp in Daning.
Unfortunately, she had been hit by an arrow in the abdomen and died shortly after being rescued.
Before she died, she let her son Huaining and General Zhu Qilin recognize each other as father and son.
With tears in her eyes, she warned her son that he no longer had any relatives in Xiyuan, their tribe had been massacred, Xiyuan was no longer his home, and his home was where his biological father, General Zhu Qilin, was.
After she died, Huaining, who was only six years old, took out a dagger and cut his wrist on the spot like a wolf cub!
He knelt in front of General Zhu Qilin, raised his hand high, and let the blood spurt out of his wrist.
He said that he wanted to wash away the blood of the Xiyuan people. From now on, he would no longer be a Xiyuan person. He wanted to be a subject of Daning. In this life, he would only listen to his father's words and be loyal to Daning!
He said that he would crush the remaining 26 tribes of Xiyuan to avenge his mother, his friends, and his people!
General Zhu Qilin really appreciates his son's temperament!
Their Zhu family is a family of military generals, and only such a fierce and resolute child can inherit the Zhu family's name!
So, under the full cultivation of General Zhu Qilin, little Huaining went through more than ten years of hard training and grew up to be the great General Zhu Huaining who was feared by the Western Yuan Dynasty!
…
In the blink of an eye, Feng Changye recalled the life story of General Zhu that his mother had mentioned before.
At that time, he suddenly learned that Zhu Huaining had the blood of Xiyuan people in his veins, and saw in the urgent border report of 800 miles away that Zhu Huaining, the traitor, helped the Xiyuan people to kill 40,000 Daning soldiers, and the border was flooded with blood. He thought that if he did not kill Zhu Huaining's family, it would not be enough to quell the anger of the people on the border, so he angrily decided to execute the entire Zhu family.
He also wanted to believe the old general who had fought for Daning for decades, but the two reports from the border that arrived in the capital at the same time, and the blood letter from Zhu Huaining's deputy general, all proved that Zhu Huaining's killing of 40,000 soldiers and betraying his country was true!
Therefore, he could no longer trust the old general.
Thinking of this, Feng Changye couldn't help but recall what the time-traveling girl Zhu Wuhuan said about Zhu Huaining's false surrender.
He clenched the teacup tightly, feeling extremely complicated.
In history, he really wrongly killed the entire Zhu family.
He had failed General Zhu's loyalty...
"emperor?"
When the Empress Dowager saw that her son did not respond to her words, she called out softly.
Feng Changye suddenly came back to his senses.
He looked up at the Empress Dowager and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Mother. I will not forgive the Zhu family. I brought you here to show you which of the Zhu family's accomplices will come to rescue them, so that we can catch them all in one fell swoop."
The Empress Dowager suddenly understood. "I see. Well, then we'll just sit here and watch to see who's brave enough to disobey the Emperor's orders and come to the Zhu family to rescue them!"
Seeing his mother's reaction, Feng Changye's eyes softened slightly.
It seems that the Queen Mother is unaware of Prince Jin's plan to rebel.
He was really afraid that his mother would be like a queen hundreds of years ago, helping her younger son to kill her elder son and seize the throne...
He took a small teapot and made a cup of tea for his mother.
"Mother, it's hot today, please drink more tea."
"good."
The Empress Dowager was enjoying the service of her eldest son with a smile on her face. While drinking tea happily, she couldn't help but think of her youngest son.
She sighed.
"Jin'er is a summer-weary child. She feels uncomfortable every time the weather gets hot. She has to live by the cold pond in the farmland outside Beijing to feel better... Alas!"
She looked up at Feng Changye expectantly.
"Let's go to the farm and see him later, shall we? Your brother doesn't have anyone to care for him right now, and he doesn't have any children to take care of him. He must be so lonely living by the cold pond all by himself."
Feng Changye lowered his eyes and thought, Mother, don't worry, we don't have to go to the farm outside Beijing to see him. He will soon run to you alive and kicking to perform!
Of course, when he looked up at the Empress Dowager, he had a submissive smile on his face.
"Okay, I miss Changjin very much too. I will go with my mother to see him later and bring some fruits and vegetables with me."
The poor Empress Dowager didn't know that her eldest son brought her here to watch a show. She really thought that her two sons were so friendly and respectful to each other, and she was very happy.
The two most distinguished people were drinking tea here, and soon there was movement in the back garden of the general's mansion next door.
The Queen Mother turned her head and saw a young man appear among the clusters of flowers, and her heart was filled with joy!
The Zhu family really has accomplices!
This kind of bastard should be arrested and executed together with others!
As she was getting excited, she suddenly found that the figure seemed familiar!
etc!
Isn’t that the Jin’er she was just talking about?
Why is he in General Zhu's mansion?
