Chapter 341 Guess who I brought back? (asking for monthly ticket)
In front of everyone, Fu Zhen finished explaining the whole story, and everyone's thoughts finally focused on the life and death of the emperor's eldest son, Yang Yi.

Among the people present, it can be said that the two wives Feng and Cao had nothing to do with the case. The reason why Fu Zhen did not avoid them was because the two wives had met Yang Yi, the eldest son of the emperor.

Sure enough, after hearing what she said, Mrs. Cao's expression changed: "Are you saying that not only has the emperor been looking for the eldest son for so many years, but that he is really still alive?"

"Judging from the information we know so far, this possibility is extremely high. You two followed the main force of the Zhou army all the way north. When the emperor's eldest son disappeared, the first sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law should have known about it."

The two ladies looked at each other, nodded and said, "We do know. We were in Huzhou at that time, and the enemy troops came in around midnight. All the soldiers went out to meet the enemy, and we were the only ones left in the camp, old, young, women and children." .

"It was dawn when the news of the disappearance of the emperor's eldest son came. The emperor personally led people out to search for him, but no trace was found for more than a year.

"You can't see people alive, and you can't see corpses after death."

Liang Chen nodded: "That day in Qianqing Palace, the emperor and the queen said the same thing."

"But speaking of it, it has been twenty-four years. Even if you are a parent who can't let go, after so many years, you usually give up because of the slim hope. The emperor and empress have persisted for so many years and persevered. It’s surprising, but it seems that he definitely didn’t die in Huzhou back then.”

Mrs. Cao said and looked at Mrs. Feng.

Liang Chen said angrily: "After Lao Wu and I met King Yan from the palace yesterday, we just didn't know how to go down. But it's not easy for ministers to interfere with palace affairs."

For example, if the target is He Rong, if he is not a eunuch in the palace, he can easily be invited for interrogation.

Fu Zhen said thoughtfully: "To be honest, I hope to exchange this information with the queen candidly."

"In addition, Lian Ran has met him. Li Yi's right side confirmed that the eldest son of the emperor has most likely been to Dayue. What else is involved in this cannot be ignored."

Mrs. Feng took a breath, turned the sandalwood stick a few times, and said nothing.

When it comes to the palace, you have to act in a measured way.

"This isn't easy either!"

"I will try to find a way to go to the Shanggong Bureau to check on him later. As long as I can grasp the timing of his leaving the palace, I will have a chance."

Liang Chen frowned: "But now we don't know what kind of rift there is between the queen and the emperor. If we expose this information rashly, we might create more trouble."

Who in the palace dares to move? No more brains?

None of the methods used to dig out information from Prince Rong's palace could be used now.

Fu Zhen brought the topic back: "I don't know why the eldest son of the emperor has refused to show up for so many years. It seems a bit overwhelming to blindly search for him regardless of his wishes, but my grandfather's death is caught in the middle, and these things must be investigated. clear.

Pei Zhan thought for a moment: "Since He Rong could find Taishan Pavilion privately before, it means that he can leave the palace.

"he?"

"So now we have to find out what's going on between the Queen and the Emperor?" Fu Zhen looked at him and said. "Until this issue is clarified, don't you think we will be afraid of doing anything?"

When Liang Chen heard this, he looked towards Fu Zhen: "Do you have any ideas?"

"Then maybe we can use Mr. Li for help."

Liang Chen spread his hands.

After all, the two countries are involved, and there is also a fugitive king of the Great Moon Kingdom. These are all hidden dangers.

Fu Zhen nodded: "The person who secretly found the Li family to look for the eldest son of the emperor was He Rong, so why don't we think of a way for He Rong and Mr. Li to meet at this time?"

"Alright."

That's all until I think of a better way.

The maid had already arrived outside the door. Mrs. Cao looked at the sky, stood up and said: "The food has been passed down below, let's eat first."

Everyone then stood up one after another. Liang Chen and Pei Zhan walked ahead with Mrs. Cao, while Mrs. Feng waited for Fu Zhen at the door.

After the aunt and sister-in-law, Mrs. Feng walked slowly, and Fu Zhen also followed her through the verandahs and courtyards, walking meanderingly. Looking at the familiar sights along the way, it felt like time went back many years ago.

Seeing that they were far away from Liang Chen and the others in front of them, Mrs. Feng stopped at the railing.

She took Fu Zhen's hand and asked, "How do you feel about Zhan'er?"

Fu Zhen looked at the chrysanthemums in the courtyard and said nothing.

Mrs. Feng sighed: "If you really don't want this marriage, I won't force you. But you have to tell me the truth. Your ambiguous attitude makes me feel uneasy. If you don't agree, I will naturally There is no need to arrange for Zhan'er to kneel down in the ancestral hall."

Fu Zhen sat down on the railing and suppressed his smile: "We haven't reached the stage where we will agree to life and death."

"That's natural." Mrs. Feng also sat down, "How long have you been in contact with him? How could it be possible that we are already engaged in life and death?"

"So, you asked me to say that I have identified him wholeheartedly. How could I say such things against my will?" Fu Zhen looked at her, "That night he said he wanted to divorce, and I also asked myself in my heart, whether Don't take this step.

"It's a pity that I didn't find the answer at that time, and he insisted on doing it, so there was no reason for me not to agree."

"what about now?"

"It's different now," Fu Zhen raised his head and smiled, "My mind has changed. I just think he is actually very cute. It's not a bad idea to spend the rest of my life with him. So I chose to let nature take its course. "

Mrs. Feng smiled: "That puts me at ease."

She patted Fu Zhen's hand: "The long-lasting love is longer-lasting and more precious than the flash of lightning.

"Actually, I would like you to be more cautious. No matter how good the other person is, you have to weigh whether it is suitable for you. Otherwise, you will suffer for two people.

"When you and Xu Yin were together, you were almost the one doing the work, and the most he did was accompany you. Seriously speaking, you haven't experienced many things together, and you have no way of knowing how important you are in his mind.

“Then something unexpected happened, and it became a storm, which caught people off guard.

"Although you and Zhan'er have some twists and turns now, they have been carefully considered and will be beneficial to getting along in the future.

"Anyway, since you have this intention, this is the best thing."

Fu Zhen smiled: "I also thought that the two sisters-in-law and brothers did not fall in love at first sight, but also fell in love after marriage. I think there are some things that we should not rush to conclusions."

"Of course. You have been a smart child since you were a child." Mrs. Feng held her hair and said happily, "Actually, your second sister-in-law and I are not that pedantic. As long as you live a good life, we won't mind the rest. If your brother is knowledgeable, he will also be happy for you." Hearing this, Fu Zhen sighed: "In addition to myself, there were also portraits of my eldest and second brothers hanging in the Buddhist hall. I still feel that I can survive. It must be their heroic spirits protecting me.

"Sister-in-law, from now on, we will call you mother and daughter. Let me be your adopted daughter, call you your adopted mother, and call your eldest brother your adopted father."

Mrs. Feng took a deep breath: "This matter is not urgent. We will wait until your second sister-in-law and I meet Mrs. Ning. You are Mrs. Ning's child. You must respect her first in all matters. She will treat you well."

Fu Zhen nodded: "I know."

Mrs. Feng stroked her hair and smiled again: "Okay, let's not say these disgusting words. I still have something to say."

Fu Zhen said seriously: "What are you saying? Tell me."

Mrs. Feng's expression gradually became serious: "You just mentioned the disappearance of the emperor's eldest son in the Huzhou Incident."

Fu Zhen also said seriously: "Exactly, what's wrong?"

"I thought of something." Mrs. Feng let go of her hand, held the silk and looked at the ground in front of her. "But at that time I only heard about it, and I didn't know if it was accurate."

"whats the matter?"

Mrs. Feng raised her dark eyes: "While the main force of the Zhou army was fighting, our family and the emperor were closely together. Whenever we set up camp, we would live in the same barracks.

“So it’s the same in Huzhou.

"On the night when the incident happened, the enemy troops came with force and caught us by surprise. The city wall was almost breached.

"I remember very clearly that the eldest son of the emperor broke out with his guards at the critical moment before the city was breached.

"At that time, the emperor had already led the generals to set up an ambush, which was to open a gap in the defense under the city wall, in order to trick the king into trap.

"This strategy was indeed successful. The enemy leaders came in and were immediately surrounded by the Zhou army. In the end, we turned defeat into victory and their entire army was destroyed.

“But afterwards, news came that the emperor’s eldest son was missing.

"And in the early morning of that day, the guards around your eldest brother were sent to look for us. They casually said that the eldest son of the emperor ran straight to the city wall after leaving the back house and entered the opening."

Fu Zhen, who is accustomed to the art of using soldiers, already understood when she heard this: "Are you saying that the emperor's eldest son broke into the emperor's plan to lure the enemy?"

Mrs. Feng nodded and her voice slowed down: "The emperor's eldest son appeared under the empty city wall and accidentally became the key to the enemy's plan. Later, the news of his disappearance came."

Fu Zhen was speechless.

After a long time, she found her voice: "The emperor set up this plot himself. The emperor's eldest son broke in there. Didn't he know about it?"

Mrs. Feng glanced at her: "Really speaking, he is the coach, so it is normal that he has not been to the front line in person."

How could Fu Zhen refute this?
She looked at Mrs. Feng for a moment, leaned forward and said, "You wouldn't tell me this for no reason. You must know something else."

Mrs. Feng sighed longly: "How much do I, a housewife, know? It's just that after the guard told me, I went to your eldest brother for confirmation, and your eldest brother denied it. After that, no one in the military camp admitted it.

"It seems as if the eldest son of the emperor disappeared out of thin air after leaving the queen.

“At most, some people said they saw him walking out of the city gate with two guards.

"But no one ever mentioned that he walked out of the city gate at that dangerous moment.

"I was ready to die in my stomach about this matter, but it is really not easy for the Queen. He is our empress of Zhou Dynasty, and she is also a woman and mother. When I heard that the eldest son of the emperor was still alive, I hid these words. Don’t go down.”

Fu Zhen's heart felt like it was suddenly doused with spicy oil, and it was extremely hot.

Since a formation was set up to invite you to enter the urn, so many people in the formation saw the eldest son of the emperor appearing under the city gate. That was their young prince. How could everyone not say anything to stop him?

But he was allowed to walk out like this, and he became an extremely important bait in the eyes of the enemy. If someone hadn't given the order, who would have dared to do this?
Liang Qin wouldn’t dare!

No one among the five people would dare!

"I know," she murmured, "the queen must have heard the news somewhere."

With so many people deployed, no matter how loyal they are, news will inevitably leak over time.

This news reached the Queen's ears. No matter how deep the love between the couple was, how could they not feel resentful in their hearts?
In the process of conquering the world, many similar decisions cannot be easily evaluated as right or wrong. But from the queen's perspective, her husband, who had shared weal and woe, actually pushed her eldest son, who had managed to survive during the war, to a dead end. How is this different from gouging out the heart?

When the emperor sent people everywhere to look for Yang Yi, the queen expressed doubts about this, so it was reasonable to secretly use her own means to find someone.

But according to the situation at that time, if Yang Yi was allowed to appear under the city gate as a bait by the emperor, then he would not have been able to escape the search range whether he was alive or dead.

Why was it that when the entire enemy army was wiped out, only he disappeared out of thin air?

"Do you still remember which guard told you the news?"

"He is no longer here." Mrs. Feng felt regretful for a while, "He died in the northwest together with your eldest brother."

"Then who were the other generals who were in Huzhou City at that time?"

"The emperor was accompanied by a handful of generals, and almost all of these generals died on the way to conquer the world and later when guarding the northwest border.

"By the way," Mrs. Feng remembered at this point, "your father-in-law and mother-in-law were also in Huzhou City at that time, but because the troops were divided into several groups at that time, I don't know whether your father-in-law and the others participated in the formation under the city gate."

Fu Zhen nodded.

Just when I was about to ask something else, Liang Zhi suddenly ran over: "Auntie! Why are you still here? Your brother-in-law is back! He is looking for you everywhere, and he has found our house!"

Fu Zhen was suddenly stunned by the title "brother-in-law", and then he remembered that it was Pei Mu!

She immediately slapped her thighs and jumped: "Oops! I forgot that he is going back home today, and I said that I would give him a chance to cleanse him of his troubles!"

After saying that, she ran out with her legs.

Mrs. Feng shouted anxiously: "Slow down! Fall carefully in all the twists and turns!"

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law! It's so hard for me to find you!"

Before Mrs. Feng finished speaking, another young man with a handsome face and long legs ran over from the other side of the hall. He came all the way to Fu Zhen in a hurry:
"I brought someone back for you, guess who it is?!"
