Chapter 69 The old past

"Father was captured, and Beiming fell into darkness. When the queen mother heard the news, she rode her horse and whipped to the frontier to rescue father..." At this point, Beigong Tengxiao's eyes dimmed, and he raised his hand tightly. Grab Chu Jiaoli's hand.

Chu Jiaoli raised her eyes and looked at him in confusion. She could feel his trembling hands, and she frowned slightly. Was he... afraid?

She stretched out her other hand to gently caress the back of his hand as a comfort, and it took a long time before the trembling hand calmed down.

Beigong Tengxiao opened his lips, and continued: "As the mother of the country, the Queen Mother was invited by the Emperor Dongling to go to the military camp alone to negotiate. How could the Emperor Dongling be shameless and threatened that if he wanted to rescue the Emperor Father, he would have to go with him and several generals?" , in front of the father, flattered the emperor for three days, at first it was just dancing, but the emperor Dongling and the general became more shameless and obscene, taking advantage of drunkenness and humiliating the empress one after another, for three whole days and nights."

Chu Jiaoli was startled suddenly, so frightened that she didn't dare to make a sound, she forgot to breathe for a moment.

Why did Beigong Tengxiao never mention such a terrible past?Could it be... Isn't she worthy of his trust in the previous life?

"Three days later, the queen mother dragged her embarrassed body and successfully rescued the father, but this matter became an indelible hurdle in the father's heart." Beigong Tengxiao sighed softly, and said, "After returning to the palace, the father I will no longer treat my mother as good as before...

"Three months later, the queen mother was found to be pregnant by the imperial doctor. The father was furious. Although the mother took medicine and aborted the fetus, the father still drank and went crazy every night. He came to Muyang Palace overnight and said something to the queen. He said that what happened to the empress was the shame of his life, and the empress, who was already emotionally unstable, finally couldn't bear the humiliation and hit the wall to commit suicide. It was a coincidence that this scene was witnessed by Ben Gong."

Seeing him showing a self-deprecating smile, Chu Jiaoli's heart suddenly throbbed, and she squeezed his hand tightly.

"When he saw Bengong, he was mostly sober from the wine. He was terrified when he saw the queen mother lying beside the pillar." Beigong Tengxiao narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, and the darkness in his eyes made him breathless, " He promised this palace that he would never raise another heir in this life, and that he would get rid of all other heirs except this palace."

Chu Jiaoli raised her eyebrows, and asked cautiously: "Then Ling Guifei...does she have a son?"

"Yes, Concubine Linggui's child was sent to Prince Qi's Mansion, and was raised by Uncle Qi Huang. It was named Beigong Qianling. It was the young man you saw in the carriage when you and I first met." He frowned. Mei said earnestly, "Other than me and my father, only Uncle Qi and Beigong Qianqiu know about this matter. You must not spread this matter, otherwise, your life will be in danger."

Chu Jiaoli nodded solemnly, and then asked: "I heard...the emperor wants to kill him?"

Beigong Tengxiao chuckled, and said: "Father has sworn in front of this palace that there will never be any other heirs in the palace to shake this palace's position. It is my kindness to allow Beigong Qianling to grow up. Since last year, he has acted strangely, intending to assassinate Uncle Qi, if not for Concubine Ling's repeated begging for mercy, he would have died long ago."

Chu Jiaoli bit her lips lightly. Although she had never noticed this character in her last life, now because of her, Beigong Qianling's biological mother died, and he had the intention of rebelling. Will it become a threat to Beigong Tengxiao?

She looked up at him and said, "Your Highness, I dare to ask you a word..."

Bei Gong Teng Xiao lowered his head, gently stroked the back of her delicate white hand with his fingertips, and said, "Ask."

Chu Jiaoli's voice became a little slower, and she said, "Your Highness... is interested in the throne?"

Hearing this, Beigong Tengxiao showed a smile that didn't reach his eyes, and said, "No."

At the end of the sentence, Chu Jiaoli was slightly stunned, and said: "Since this is the case, why doesn't Your Highness allow the Emperor to have other heirs? If Your Highness is the Emperor's only son, he can only become the crown prince and inherit the throne."

Beigong Tengxiao narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, looked at the beauty in the picture scroll, and said: "Bei Gonglie is not only an emperor, but also her husband, the father of this palace, he is sorry for his mother, he is not qualified to let other women stay behind .”

Chu Jiaoli nodded knowingly, she never thought that Bei Gonglie was even more ruthless than she imagined.

In the previous life, Chu Jingmao executed her mother. She hated her all the time. When she became a side concubine, she returned to the Chu Mansion and killed him.

But in order for Chu Jiaoli to be the queen, Beigong Tengxiao didn't know how much he endured. He tried to curry favor with this mother-killing enemy every day, only for Beigonglie's heart to soften, so that he could be stated in the will as the new emperor.

Even if she did this, she still didn't appreciate it, just because she didn't have some time to accompany her, she acted in a fit of anger...

After thinking about it, she suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain, and a deep sense of shame sprouted in her heart.

While thinking, Beigong Tengxiao raised his hand and gently stroked her cheek, and said softly with his eyes: "From the first time I saw you, I felt that you were very similar to your mother. When I was young, I couldn't keep my mother." , now I just want to protect you."

Chu Jiaoli was slightly taken aback, could it be because of this face that he in the previous life pampered her so much?

No wonder, in the previous life, she was humiliated as a concubine. Not only did he not dislike her, but he also took pity on her carefully, for fear that she would be wronged in the slightest. Compared with Bei Gonglie, this attitude is completely different.

Beigong Tengxiao frowned earnestly, looked into her eyes, and said: "Father has ruined countless women. Apart from mother, there is another person who is also a scar on Bengong's heart."

Chu Jiaoli slightly raised her eyebrows and listened to him quietly.

"The Queen Mother and Concubine Ling Gui are about the same age as the Emperor Father. You are still young, but you are about the same age as her, which makes me even more worried..." Beigong Tengxiao sighed softly, and said, "You should be able to guess, Who is this Palace talking about?"

Chu Jiaoli thought of his resentment when he was drinking and going crazy that day, besides Beigong Qianling, he did mention another person, that is the "imperial sister" in his mouth.

Her breathing slowed down, she didn't dare to ask questions, she nodded lightly, and said, "Yes."

Beigong Tengxiao's eyes were lonely, and he said: "When I was five years old, my father brought back a three-year-old girl named Xue Ye from outside the palace. She was the only daughter of General Huang who died in the battle between the two countries. Her father died in battle, and her mother died in love. The emperor looked at her pitifully and took her into the palace as an adopted daughter.

"I am the only son, so I am very happy to hear that I have a younger sister, but for some reason, Xue Ye has never been known to the public by my father and prince. When I was young, I always liked to go to Qinxue Palace to play with the imperial sister. Well, father never expressed his opinion, and when he was heartbroken, it was Sister Xueye who comforted him.

"But last year, after I returned from attending the birthday banquet of Emperor Xi Yuhuang, the plaque of Qinxue Palace was removed, and there was no one in the palace, and the imperial sister also disappeared."
