Whenever he thought of Chun Yu Ling, Bu Cong had countless assumptions, but the one that he found the most bizarre had actually become the most likely one over the years.
Resurrection through the dead, this is a bold idea of Bu Cong. He is a military commander, and he never believed in ghosts and gods before, but the transformation of Miss Chunyu and Feng Yuheng in Dashun forced him to associate the facts in this direction.
When he was in Dashun, Feng Yuheng's changes had surprised him and puzzled him. If he said that he had made higher achievements in medical skills, he would not be too suspicious. After all, the Yao family was a medical family, and it was normal for the younger generation to surpass the master. But the strange thing was Feng Yuheng's strange martial arts!
Bu Cong never thought that a person could grow from a weak little girl to a martial arts master in just three years, and even have exquisite archery skills. Martial arts are all acquired from childhood, how could such achievements be made in just three years?
When he finally came to the conclusion by combining Chunyu Ling and Feng Yuheng, he was shocked by the conclusion and couldn't help wanting to explore it. So, he agreed to all the requests of General Chunyu, on the one hand, he wanted to fight back against Dashun to avenge the Bu family, and on the other hand, he wanted to find out what kind of mystery was hidden in the matter of Feng Yuheng.
This time he returned to Dashun, and brought Chunyu Ling with him, just to see Chunyu Ling's reaction when he returned to his so-called "homeland". And now, he seemed to be 100% sure that the resurrection of the dead was a thing, and he didn't expect that there was such a thing in the world.
Of course, Bu Cong was a smart man. He knew that General Chunyu of Zong Sui was not stupid. The reason why he used him was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, just for a daughter. Chunyu An loved his legitimate daughter, but he did not love her so much that he would fight for the military power of Zong Sui for a son-in-law from Dashun. A large part of the reason why Bu Cong could become a general of Zong Sui was because of Duanmu Anguo!
When Duanmu Anguo fled from the northern border of Dashun, he not only took away a lot of Duanmu family wealth, but also took away the power hidden in various provinces of Duanmu family. Those private soldiers added together, there were nearly 200,000. He took such power to Zong Sui, and did not surrender to the monarch at that time, but chose the second prince to help among the princes, in order to help the second prince to rise to the throne, so that he could rebel against Dashun, so that he could recover the lost land of the three provinces in the northern border, and if possible, he also wanted to control the part of the territory that originally belonged to Qian Zhou.
Bu Cong and Duanmu Anguo had a long-standing friendship. Bu Cong was impressed by Duanmu Anguo's military power, while Duanmu Anguo was impressed by Bu Cong's ability to lead troops. General Chunyu of Zong Sui was a supporter of the second prince. With these factors together, the second prince was very optimistic about them. He quickly united the three forces to serve him. Even Bu Cong's position as a general was obtained with the help of the second prince.
General Chunyu was a shrewd man. The late emperor was already in his twilight years, and he had to help his favorite prince to sit on the throne. As early as two years ago, he had married his third daughter to the second prince, and now that daughter was the empress. If he could successfully conquer Dashun, the second daughter's position as empress would not only be more stable, but would also have more weight.
The various parties had their own considerations and had coveted the fat piece of meat of Dashun for many years. When the previous emperor was alive, even if Dashun had not yet produced steel weapons, Zong Sui had never had the intention to rebel, which made the new emperor very dissatisfied. The new emperor was not a man who was content with his lot. His ambitions were higher than the sky, and the small Zong Sui could no longer satisfy him. Especially with the fall of Qian Zhou and the ancient Shu Kingdom, he believed that sooner or later it would be Zong Sui's turn. Even if they continued to be grandsons, their grandfather's slap would soon come over. Instead of passively being beaten, it would be better to take the initiative. Little did they know that Dashun was a piece of fat meat, but also a hot piece of meat...
After going through a lot of ups and downs, the harem of Dashun seemed to have returned to the peace it had been for more than 20 years. Although Concubine Yun was no longer in Yuehan Palace, it was still independent and proud, and would not allow anyone to spy on it. After the lessons of Concubine Yuan and Concubine Li, the other concubines became well-behaved again. Those whose families had once taken refuge with the Eighth Prince lived in fear for a while, and only breathed a sigh of relief after they were sure that the Sixth Prince did not want to attack them. At the same time, they were also grateful for the Sixth Prince's kindness, and warned their families not to participate in the fight for the throne again, and then continued their lives as concubines in peace.
Jingci Palace has also recently restored the daily routine of waking up and sleeping for the concubines. The queen seems to be more energetic than before and can talk to the sisters in the harem for a while every day. However, after the concubines leave, the worry will appear on her face again.
Seeing her like this, the personal maid Fangyi was anxious and could not help but advise: "Since the other party is no longer coming to your house, why don't you try to forget about it, let's live our own lives and have nothing to do with that person anymore!"
The queen smiled bitterly, "How can I forget it just like that? For so many years, there has never been a day when I didn't hope to have nothing to do with them, but is that up to me? They are like hidden weapons, and you never know when they will suddenly attack from anywhere. You are always on edge all day long, and you can't defend yourself." As she spoke, she suddenly remembered something and asked Fang Yi, "Do you believe in Qian Zhou's treasure?"
Fang Yi was stunned for a moment, then said: "It has been rumored for so many years, and the queen has also secretly searched for it. Although she has never found it, after all, things can't be learned out of thin air, so there must be something, right?"
"Is there one? But where is it?" The Queen frowned and thought, "It is said that Qian Zhou's treasure is worth the entire continent. As long as you get that treasure, it is equivalent to getting all the wealth in the world. You can take over all the land and become the only supreme person in this continent. Duanmu Anguo is obsessed with that treasure to the point of madness. If the treasure is fake, then Duanmu Anguo's life is just a joke. If he is a joke, then what am I? But if it is real, if he gets it, let alone other places, our Dashun... will be devastated."
There was a dead silence in the Queen's eyes. Fang Yi stood by, not knowing how to respond. The master and the servant remained silent from the early afternoon of the Mid-Autumn Festival to the evening.
The past two years have been unlucky for the Dashun Dynasty, with three parties causing chaos and his own family also being in turmoil. When the Sixth Prince finished handling state affairs, it was almost dark. After coming out of the Qiankun Palace, he thought about it and decided to go to the Zhaohe Palace to see Emperor Tianwu first. After seeing that the old emperor was in good condition and was living a leisurely life, he did not stay for long and went straight to the Jingsi Palace to see Concubine Li.
In Jingsi Palace, Concubine Li refused to eat properly again. The maid Zuo'er heated up the dinner again and again. When she served it to her for the last time, she saw that Concubine Li still refused to eat. She had no choice but to say helplessly: "Master, if you don't eat, these dishes will be thrown away. Although the Sixth Prince is now the regent, the servants in the palace dare not treat us harshly, but the border war is tense. I heard that the Sixth Prince advocated a simple life from luxury in the previous dynasty. We can't let others find fault with us."
"So what if you find something to blame?" Concubine Li glared at Zuo'er fiercely, "My son is the emperor now, who dares to criticize me?"
"Oh my master!" Zuo'er wanted to step forward and cover Concubine Li's mouth, but Concubine Li pushed her away again. She had no choice but to stamp her feet and lower her voice and said anxiously: "Master, you must not say that! The Sixth Prince is only the regent, not the emperor. If this gets out, it will be terrible."
"Spread it? Who would spread it?" Li Guiren asked her, "Will you tell anyone? If you tell anyone, I will strangle you to death right now."
"I dare not!" Zuo'er knelt down quickly. "I am loyal to my master and will never spread the affairs of Jingsi Palace. But my master, the walls have ears. This palace has never been safe. We can't let our guard down!"
"Zuo'er is right!" A sudden voice came, and the Sixth Prince Xuan Tianfeng pushed the door open. "I heard what you said when I was standing outside the door. If there are people with ulterior motives in this courtyard, what can't be spread out?"
"Feng'er, you're here!" Concubine Li didn't care if anyone heard her words or not. What she cared about was that her son finally came to see her again. Since moving into the Jingsi Palace, the Sixth Prince didn't come often. She had lived here for so long, and she had only seen her son twice, including this time. "Zuo'er, hurry up, go to the imperial kitchen and serve the food. Tell them that the Sixth Prince is eating here today and ask them to make something delicious."
"No, I'm not hungry." Xuan Tianfeng stopped Zuo'er, "You go down first, I want to talk to my mother."
Zuo Er followed his words and left, whispering before leaving: "Your Highness, please persuade the noble lady more."
Xuan Tianfeng shook his head and sighed. Hasn't he advised enough? This mother is too stubborn. Once she sets her mind on something, it's hard to change it. Feng Yuheng once said that this is a mental illness, and mental illness needs to be treated with mental medicine. But where is the mental medicine to cure Li Guiren?
"How can you not be hungry after a busy day?" Concubine Li took her son's hand and pulled him to sit next to her. "You can't neglect your health because of state affairs."
"Mother, didn't you eat either?" He glanced at the food on the table that had obviously been reheated several times and asked Concubine Li, "Why don't you eat?"
"How can I eat!" Concubine Li's face darkened. "Feng'er, I don't want to live here. I can't eat anything if I live here. Please let me out! I promise not to cause trouble again and never get involved in anything in the harem. As long as I can leave this Jingsi Palace, I can move anywhere, okay?"
Xuan Tianfeng was puzzled: "Since you don't want to get involved in the harem, what difference does it make where you live?"
"This Jingsi Palace is a prison!" Li Guiren yelled, "I am your mother! You have become the emperor, but you have locked your own mother in a prison. What are you thinking?"
Xuan Tianfeng looked at Li Guiren's hysteria, and the pain in his heart was beyond words. If possible, which son doesn't want his mother to live comfortably? But he couldn't!
Resisting the frustration in his heart, he said to Li Guiren, "It's impossible. You can't go out! As long as I have a say in this palace, I will never let you leave Jingsi Palace. You... just give up on this idea!"
