Beitang ran close to Jiang Qingxue upon hearing the wind, and squatted down beside her bed, staring at Jiang Qingxue, frowning tightly, with a dazed expression.
After a while, Beitang unfolded the moon-white jade pendant in his palm and placed it in front of Jiang Qingxue, his voice was hoarse, "Qing Xue, this is the jade pendant that my widow gave you back then."
After seeing the jade pendant, Jiang Qingxue's eyes were filled with mist, he...
After all, I still know.
"So, there is no relationship between you and Mu Liangzheng, right?" Beitang said softly after hearing the wind. As the king of a country, he had never spoken to any woman so softly and gently.
Jiang Qingxue's eyes were slightly red, she picked up a silk handkerchief and wiped away her tears, lowering her eyes, "It's useless to say these things now."
She still clearly remembered that her daughter hated her very much now, and wanted her to die with Mu Liangzheng, and she couldn't tolerate her as a mother at all.
Over the years, she had imagined the scene of their reunion countless times, but she never imagined that it would be such a stalemate.
"Useless? Why is it useless!" Beitang stood up angrily when he heard the wind, "The widow is now the king of Beiming Kingdom, and he can fulfill all the promises he made to you back then."
"It was you who secretly ran back to Nanting Kingdom and sent a letter, claiming to break up with the widow!"
"The widow has the right to know about this child who came out of nowhere!"
"Because she is also the widow's child!"
Beitang was extremely furious when he heard Feng's words, and he was still panting slightly when he finished speaking. Over the years, although he hated Jiang Qingxue for leaving at the beginning, deep down in his heart, he still cared about her the most.
This time when he came to Xiyuan Kingdom, he also found out that she would attend, otherwise, with his status as the king of a country, he would not need to attend the canonization ceremony of a crown prince in person.
After arriving in Xiyuan Kingdom, he warned himself not to get close to this hard-hearted woman, just to take a look at her from a distance, but unexpectedly, a daughter appeared out of thin air.
"No, she's not your child." Jiang Qingxue had tears in her eyes, "Mu Liangzheng said, it's my child and his!"
"Jiang Qingxue, are you crazy?" Beitang was annoyed when he heard the wind, reached out and grabbed Jiang Qingxue's wrist, and held the jade pendant a little tighter.
"This jade pendant is the token of love that the widow gave you back then. You engraved your daughter's name on the token of love that the widow gave you. How dare you say that this child was born by you and another man?!"
Jiang Qingxue bit her lip, suddenly regretting why she came here.
Beitang felt distressed when he saw her about to cry when he heard the wind, and after sighing slightly, he reached out and patted her on the back, "Qingxue, why are you doing this?"
After being silent for a long time, Jiang Qingxue opened her mouth in a hoarse voice, "Back then, you were the prince of the Beiming Kingdom, if it was rumored that you had an affair with the saint, it would definitely affect your bright future."
"Although you have promised me a lot, but Wenfeng, I dare not take risks..."
After Beitang Wenfeng heard her words, the original melancholy between his brows disappeared instantly, and even brought a layer of joy, "So, that girl is really our child?"
Jiang Qingxue nodded.
At this juncture, it might not be a good thing for Beitang to know that he has a daughter. Yun Jin caused such a big disaster in the main hall, if someone who could compete with Emperor Xi Ming didn't come forward, he might not be able to escape.
This jade pendant was probably also sent by Chu Li.
After Beitang Wenfeng got an affirmative answer, he recalled the first time he met Mu Yunjin. The girl had a weird temper, she was able to bend and stretch, and she was seven or eight percent similar to Qingxue in appearance. I feel familiar.
It turned out that it was their daughter.
Thinking of Mu Yunjin, Beitang thought of another thing after hearing the wind, and took Jiang Qingxue's hand, "Go, go see Emperor Ximing."
"Now?" Jiang Qingxue was surprised.
Beitang nodded upon hearing the wind, "The widow wants to tell him that Yunjin is the daughter of the widow, the princess of Beiming Kingdom, and no one can hurt her without the widow's permission."
When Jiang Qingxue heard this, it was rare to agree with Beitang Wenfeng's words, get up and put on her shoes.
"Wenfeng, why aren't you wearing shoes..." Jiang Qingxue looked at Beitang Wenfeng who was standing barefoot on the ground.
Beitang was startled when he heard the wind, and smiled awkwardly, "The widow was too excited just now."
…
In the royal study.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Ning disrespects the order and disrespects the holy power. His behavior is as bad as that of Princess Ning Mu Yunjin. They should be arrested together and punished." Old General Qin stood in front of Emperor Ximing's desk, counting Chu Li and Mu Yunjin.
Emperor Ximing leaned on the chair with a tense face, and after hearing what Old General Qin said, he patted the table heavily, "Li Er, this kid, thanks to my intention to canonize him as a prince, I didn't expect that he was also an obsessed beauty." A person of color."
"For a woman, I won't even listen to my words!"
After hearing this, Old General Qin followed the trend, "Your Majesty, but you can't say that. After all, His Royal Highness Ning is young and vigorous. The most important thing is that girl Mu Yunjin. I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup has been poured into His Highness Ning."
"I don't know where the fire phoenix that killed the fifth princess in the hall came from." Old General Qin sighed.
Speaking of Huofeng, and remembering Chu Qingqiang's tragic death, Emperor Ximing smashed a cup with his hand, "I thought that one concubine Rong would be enough! I didn't expect that there would be another Mu Yunjin!"
"These witches are only targeting people from the royal family!" Xi Minghuang recalled that the fire phoenix he saw on the back of Concubine Rong was the same as the one protruding from Mu Yunjin's back.
I couldn't help thinking sadly, did Mu Yunjin take revenge instead of Concubine Rong
"Your Majesty, I have an idea about this matter. I don't know if it will work..." Old General Qin said meaningfully.
"you say."
Old General Qin nodded, "The emperor saw the same fire phoenix on the back of Concubine Rong back then. Later, considering the relationship between husband and wife, the emperor only imprisoned Concubine Rong and did not affect her life."
"Now that the fire and the phoenix have been transferred, and they bit people in the palace when they first came to this world, they will definitely do many more life-threatening and outrageous things in the future."
"During the war, the old minister once stayed in a tribe outside the Great Wall. The people there especially believed in the gods and spirits. He once told the old minister that if he met a person with witch spirit visions in his body, as long as he tied the person to a wooden stake, Eliminate it immediately by burning it with fire."
After the old general Qin finished speaking, he observed Emperor Ximing's expression.
Emperor Ximing raised his eyes and frowned slightly, "You want me to order Mu Yunjin to be burned to death?"
"The veteran is terrified, but this is not a solution. If the fire phoenix is not removed, I am afraid that more innocent people will be hurt in the future. Besides, if Mu Yunjin is imprisoned like Concubine Rong, the fire phoenix will still be transferred. , it is better to cut off the root cause now..." Old General Qin bent down and gave a gift.
"Li Er over there..." Emperor Ximing listened to Old General Qin's proposal, but he was only wary of Chu Li.
No matter what Chu Li said, he was still his best son. If it hurt the friendship between father and son because of a woman, the gain would outweigh the loss.
"His Royal Highness King Ning's treatment of Mu Yunjin is just a novelty for a while. There are many beauties in Xiyuan Country, and Mu Yunjin is not bad. After a long time, His Highness King Ning will understand the painstaking efforts of your majesty." Old General Qin road.
Emperor Ximing sighed slightly and nodded, "Leave this matter to you."
"Observe the order." The old general Qin looked happy, and then seemed to think of something, "By the way, the emperor, after Mu Liangzheng died, the position of prime minister in the court is vacant. I wonder if the emperor has a favorite candidate?"
Speaking of Mu Liangzheng, Emperor Ximing sighed again, and after thinking for a while, "Let's mention the Minister of Rites Yan Qiuhuai first, the vacant position of Minister of Rites, you can figure it out, I have a headache, I don't want to bother with these things anymore .”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Seeing that everything was under control, Old General Qin was about to submit his resignation when Eunuch Lu ran in, "Your Majesty, the King of Beiming Kingdom and the Saintess of Nanting Kingdom are here."
"Quickly declare." Emperor Ximing said.
"How could these two people get together..." Old General Qin muttered in a low voice, stood aside, and didn't propose to leave.
After a while, Beitang heard the wind and led Jiang Qingxue into the door of the imperial study.
Seeing that the two entered the door holding hands, Emperor Ximing felt a little appalled, unable to react for a while, "Come here, give me a seat."
After hearing the news, Beitang took a sip of the hot tea brought by the maid, and looked at Emperor Ximing with a smile, "Brother Chu, I have a happy event to share with you when I come here today."
"Oh? What's the happy event for Cousin Bei?" Xi Minghuang said politely.
"Today, the widow learned from Qingxue that Yun Jin is actually the widow's own daughter, not the daughter of Mu Liangzheng."
"This jade pendant is Yunjin's personal belonging, and it was given to Qingxue by the widow back then, so Yunjin is the princess of our Beiming Kingdom."
After the words fell, Emperor Ximing and Old General Qin were stunned at the same time.
Especially Old General Qin, who finally managed to eradicate Mu Yunjin, no matter how hard he thought about it, things would turn around at this juncture.
Involuntarily, he opened his mouth with some doubts, "Then why didn't the monarch come out and explain when we confronted each other in the hall, so that Prime Minister Mu wouldn't kill himself."
These words hit Jiang Qingxue hard.
Yes, if he had the courage to tell the truth that day, maybe Liangzheng would not have died.
"The widow also just learned about this." Beitang heard the wind and gently stroked Jiang Qingxue's back, "When the widow was the prince, I did have some affection for Qingxue in private, but the widow was sorry for her."
"Mu Yunjin is also absolutely the daughter of the widow."
Emperor Ximing took a deep breath, tried his best to digest this fact quickly, and sighed softly for a while, "Cousin Bei, although Yunjin is your daughter, she is also our daughter-in-law of Xiyuan Kingdom."
"You have seen everything that happened in the hall. Although I care about the brotherly relationship with you for many years, I still have to give an explanation to the world." Emperor Ximing said helplessly.
Beitang nodded when he heard the wind, and raised his eyebrows lightly, "What Brother Chu said, everything should be done."
"Punishment is acceptable. After all, Yun Jin has indeed done it before, but it must not harm his life."
"After all, the princess of our Beiming Kingdom is also honorable, and she is the treasure of my heart. I finally found this daughter, and I don't want anything to happen to her."
"Our two countries have had good relations for so many years, so we can't hurt our friendship because of such a child, right?"
