“…”
King Yan was interrupted by Princess Yan and was stunned for a moment. He looked at Princess Yan with vague anger.
He has been married to Princess Yan for many years, and he has always been the stronger one in their relationship. Princess Yan has always been the weak one to please him.
But now, Princess Yan is completely out of control.
As early as when he returned to the capital, King Yan knew that Princess Yan was a little different from before. But this difference about Princess Yan still surprised King Yan.
Seeing that King Yan was speechless, Princess Yan simply turned around and left.
King Yan looked at Princess Yan's leaving back and wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. In the end, he could only watch Princess Yan leave.
…
Compared to the bitterness and depression of King Yan in Prince Yan's Mansion, at this moment in Duke Dingguo's Mansion, the eldest princess was looking energetically at Du Qingruo, the saint of luck path opposite.
"You really are not afraid of death!"
The eldest princess was quite surprised that Du Qingruo suddenly came to her door.
After all, Jie Luck Dao's power in the capital was almost completely wiped out.
The Taoist Master Jie Luck fled to a foreign country and there was no news. The eldest princess told him that Du Qingruo, a saint, was also hiding.
"I'm afraid of death!"
Du Qingruo smiled slightly, "There are probably not many people in this world who are really not afraid of death."
As the old saying goes, it is better to die than live.
Ants are still alive, let alone humans
Du Qingruo used to be a person who was not afraid of death.
But when she led a raid on the Imperial Tomb of the Tang Dynasty and tried to cut off the Dragon Vein of the Tang Dynasty, she was deceived by Mr. Zhao Er, and Du Qingruo became the person who was afraid of death.
Her fear of death is not a fear of death in the general sense.
She just didn't want to die meaninglessly.
Today, although she is still a saint of the Destiny Path, her belief in the Destiny Path has almost collapsed.
"Since you are afraid of death, how dare you appear in front of me?"
The eldest princess looked at Du Qingruo with interest.
"Of course I came to His Highness for cooperation."
Du Qingruo was still smiling, "After all, you and I have a common goal."
"Common goal? How come I don't know about this?"
The eldest princess looked at Du Qingruo indifferently, "I am the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, and you are the treacherous ministers and traitors in the way of calamity. What common goal do we have?"
"Your Highness wants to ascend to the supreme position. Fortunately, I can help you!"
Du Qingruo has dealt with the eldest princess a lot, and his understanding of the eldest princess is quite deep. A woman like the eldest princess does so many little tricks secretly. What she wants to do can be deduced with just a little analysis.
"The rumors in the capital and the bones were all caused by you and others, right?"
The eldest princess's eyes suddenly darkened, and her expression turned cold.
"That's right."
Du Qingruo did not deny what he had done.
"The assassination of King Yan was your work?"
"right!"
"Haha..." The eldest princess couldn't help but laugh out loud, "You have already dug up the tomb of the founder of the Tang Dynasty. Do you think I can still keep you?"
"Her Royal Highness Princess Chang, as the saying goes, people of the bright side don't speak secretly. The tomb of Emperor Taizu in Xishan is obviously fake. If you say that I dug up the tomb of Emperor Taizu in Xishan, it would be a bit too much!"
Du Qingruo responded calmly, "As for assassinating King Yan, isn't that what Dian Xia wants to do?"
"Without King Yan as the emperor's helper, when the emperor's personal expedition fails, who in this capital can turn the tide? Of course it is you, Your Highness."
"King Yan is still alive!"
The eldest princess glanced at Du Qingruo coldly, "Also, there is a queen mother in the palace!"
"That's not a problem!"
Du Qingruo smiled brightly and continued confidently: "Whether it is the Queen Mother or King Yan, as long as a secret is made public, then they are nothing."
"What secret?"
Seeing Du Qingruo's expression, the eldest princess was inexplicably frightened.
"Prince Yan is not the biological son of the Queen Mother!"
"impossible!"
Upon hearing Du Qingruo's words, the eldest princess immediately denied it.
How could King Yan not be the biological son of the Queen Mother
When King Yan was born, she was in the palace with the late emperor. Although she was still young at that time, she could already remember things.
Moreover, the appearance of King Yan is somewhat similar to that of Emperor Yongping.
"Your Highness the Princess, I know this sounds unbelievable, but it is the truth."
"It was difficult for the late emperor to have heirs. It was only through my method of calamizing luck that he was able to have heirs."
"As for King Yan, he is just a helper prepared by the late emperor for the current emperor. Many people around the Queen Mother know this."
"Nonsense!"
The eldest princess still didn't believe it, "If King Yan is really not the Queen Mother's biological child, then this kind of thing must be the biggest secret in the world. The Queen Mother will keep it secret, and it is impossible for anyone with relevant knowledge to survive."
As a member of the royal family, the eldest princess knew that the royal family wanted to cover up certain secrets. That is, all insiders must die.
Because only the dead can truly keep secrets.
"Your Highness may wish to think carefully about the difference between the Queen Mother's treatment of the emperor and her treatment of King Yan."
"Also, the daughters of King Yan and Princess Yan, their marriages..."
"Some things, as long as you compare them, the truth will be clear at a glance!"
After Du Qingruo said this, he stopped talking and asked the eldest princess to think about it by herself.
It is really difficult for women in this world to treat their biological children and non-biological children equally.
The eldest princess was silent, recalling the difference in her memory about the Queen Mother's treatment of King Yan and Emperor Yongping. In this recall, she really discovered the problem.
Although the Queen Mother treated Emperor Yongping very harshly, she was much kinder to him. But he treated King Yan with harshness and alienation. Emperor Yongping often went to the Queen Mother's palace, but King Yan could not easily go to the Queen Mother's palace without being summoned by the Queen Mother.
At that time, it seemed that King Yan had made some mistake.
It's a pity that it happened a long time ago, and the eldest princess can no longer remember it clearly.
But as Du Qingruo said, the Queen Mother was much nicer to Emperor Yongping than to King Yan. Even her eldest brother, who died young, had a worse attitude towards King Yan than towards Emperor Yongping, who was still the prince at the time.
"The Queen Mother is not the Queen Mother's biological son, so who is the King of Yan?"
The eldest princess basically believed Du Qingruo's words, but problems arose. King Yan looks like Emperor Yongping and the late Emperor, so whose son should he be
"Is this important?"
Du Qingruo smiled slightly.
As long as it is confirmed that King Yan was not born to the Queen Mother, then it does not matter whose son he is. (End of chapter)
