Chapter 645 Who to Stand Next to
This idea is also very decisive.
Shen Xuan began to look at Fu Jinchen with a new respect.
"The emperor was still kind at the time, so I dared to take such a risk. Fortunately, I knew a lot of people who were willing to help me at that time. We left money at home, sent a letter, and fled the capital."
At this point, Fu Zhaoning and the others roughly knew what happened that year.
But what Fu Zhaoning didn't quite understand was——
"How much silver did you leave? What message did you send?"
Hearing her question, Fu Jinchen's expression suddenly changed.
He was very smart and knew immediately, "You didn't get the money or the letter?"
"No."
Fu Zhaoning shook his head, his expression a little cold.
If they had left some silver, my grandfather wouldn't have suffered so much. If there had been a letter, my grandfather wouldn't have felt like the sky had fallen, not knowing where they had gone or whether they were dead or alive.
For so many years, my heart seemed to be suspended in mid-air.
"Since I was leaving, I had to take care of my father and daughter, so I used all the rewards I received during that period to pay for the silver. Together with the money I saved, the total was 500 taels. I asked a friend to deliver the letter to the Fu family!"
He thought that five hundred taels should be enough to support his father in raising Zhaoning for a few years.
At that time, he was thinking that he would be able to return to Beijing in three years at the longest.
"Which friend?"
"Song family, the eldest young master of the Song family, I had some friendship with him in the past. Although I think that person's character is average, he is not a good person but he cares a lot about his reputation in front of outsiders. He is not greedy for a few hundred taels of silver!"
"Young Master Song, huh."
Fu Zhaoning suddenly found it a little funny.
"He should be talking about Song Yunyao's uncle, the eldest young master of the Song family at that time."
Xiao Lanyuan spoke up at this time. He felt that Fu Zhaoning might want to scold Fu Jinchen for being blind, which would be unfair to him.
"Hmm? What's the difference?" Aren't they all from the Song family? Is there anyone good in Song Yunyao's family?
"Didn't Song Yunyao's reputation deceive people all over the capital?" Xiao Lanyuan told the truth. "The Song family at that time naturally had a good reputation. The old man of the Song family was also famous for his credibility. He also liked to make friends with scholars and never refused requests from scholars of ordinary family backgrounds."
Therefore, Fu Jinchen must have been in an emergency at the time and could not find a more suitable candidate, so it is understandable that he found Mr. Song.
I see.
Fu Zhaoning thought of the reputation of Song Yunyao and Song Yuanlin before she tore off the faces of the Song sisters, and was speechless for a moment.
As soon as Xiao Lanyuan said this, Fu Jinchen looked at him.
Memories are churning in my mind.
His face changed again.
"Prince Jun?!"
They had actually ignored the fact that there was someone else in the room.
Moreover, he was the protagonist in the past events they had been talking about, the poisoned little prince!
Fu Jinchen's expression changed again and again. He looked at Xiao Lanyuan and then at Fu Zhaoning.
If he remembered correctly, their relationship was -
They are a couple!
"You, you are married?"
Xiao Lanyuan took two steps forward, "Yes. Zhao Ning is now Princess Jun."
Fu Jinchen's eyes narrowed.
Shen Qiao was stunned.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room became tense.
Although Fu Jinchen and Shen Qiao felt that they were framed back then, no matter what, the incident caused indelible and tragic consequences.
Prince Jun has been ill for many years and was predicted not to live past the age of thirty.
Fu Jinchen and the others found out about this later, but their memories were always confused. They now remember it all.
They left their hometowns, abandoned their families, wandered for many years, and survived many dangers.
No matter what, there is a huge unbridgeable gap between them.
But now Xiao Lanyuan and Fu Zhaoning are husband and wife!
Fu Jinchen wanted to get out of bed immediately after being shocked.
He met Xiao Lanyuan's gaze and stretched out his hand to block Fu Zhaoning.
"Prince Jun, if you hate us, please direct your anger and hatred towards us. Zhaoning was just a baby back then. She knew nothing and this matter had nothing to do with her."
Fu Zhaoning looked at his arm blocking in front of him and was speechless for a moment.
Does he still want to protect her when he's like this?
"I have been looking for you for more than ten years." Xiao Lanyuan said.
"We didn't intend to avoid it for so many years. At first, we thought that if we wanted our father and Zhao Ning to survive, we couldn't be caught so quickly. We also wanted to find out the truth, find the person who poisoned you, get the antidote, and return to Beijing to save you."
Fu Jinchen explained seriously.
"Have you ever thought about finding an antidote to save me?" Xiao Lanyuan found it funny when he heard that.
"You may not believe it, but we really think so. The best way is to find the antidote, save you, and redeem our lives, so that the emperor can spare our death. Even if we have to exile our whole family, we can always try our best to survive."
This was Fu Jinchen’s thought at the time.
Xiao Lanyuan actually admired him a little.
At that time, Fu Jinchen was just a commoner, powerless and penniless, yet he had made a plan and was thinking of redeeming himself.
"We found the Shenyi Cult!"
Fu Jinchen spoke again, surprising them again.
"That maidservant was a member of the Shenyi sect! Moreover, we have also found out that some of the things she said to Madam in the palace at that time were true. For example, a high priest in their sect calculated that if the Shenyi sect wanted to become prosperous and have followers all over the world, surpassing all the royal families, it would need a new leader, a new leader born from the Purple Star, and a saint who could assist the new leader."
Fu Zhaoning frowned.
"The new master they wanted at that time was you!"
Fu Jinchen looked at Xiao Lanyuan.
Fu Lanyuan also frowned, "Do you think I will believe your nonsense?"
He was the one they wanted as their new master, but they sent someone to poison him?
"That's not nonsense. I tracked that maid all the way back then, and I really caught some clues. We once went into the Shenyi Sect and heard some inside information. They said that you have a different background and you were born from the Purple Star, so you would be the best new master for them. But they had to steal you from the Zhao Kingdom Palace, pretend to be dead, and then teach you since childhood, so that you would forget the right path and only care about the Shenyi Sect!"
Fu Zhaoning saw Xiao Lanyuan's fingers slowly clenched and made a fist.
She suddenly felt sorry for him and subconsciously took a step towards him.
Fu Jinchen stopped her, looking worried.
"Zhao Ning——"
He couldn't determine now what Prince Jun's purpose was in marrying Zhao Ning!
Xiao Lanyuan also looked at Fu Zhaoning and stretched out his hand towards her.
Between her parents and him, who is she standing next to now?
