Jinghong Tower

"Yes, there were two young scholars, but they were not good at poetry and painting, but one was eloquent and the other could make up stories. After hearing some rumors about the He family, he wrote a storybook and sold it To the people who came to watch the poetry show. The great master was mentioned in it."

After listening to Xiaoli's words, He Ran became interested: "Where is the storybook?"

Xiaoli shook her head: "Flying pigeons pass messages, and it's hard to carry a message book."

He Ran said: "Send a message to Zhending. All the good talents discovered at the cultural conference will be registered. Continue to pay attention. As for the two people mentioned in the letter, keep them for now. I will meet them in person when I go to Zhending some other day. By the way, ask Zuo Xiaoai to send you a storybook."

"Okay!" Xiaoli crisply replied.

He Ran picked up a dagger on the table and played with it in his hand. When he turned his wrist, the dagger was as fast as lightning.

This is what He Ran discovered when he went to Xinzhou this time. Her body's martial arts was really not weak, and it was a murderous martial arts.

In her previous life, she was born into a military family, and boxing was her hobby. She was well-known in that circle for free fighting and mixed martial arts. After coming here, she learned sword and archery skills, but they were only for killing enemies in battle.

However, her current body and martial arts methods are completely different from those she used to know. Just like now, she can do tricks with this dagger, but she could not do it before.

This time when she went to Xinzhou, she killed three people. Two of the three people were Fu Hai's men, and one was Tian Guang's companion.

Every time he strikes, he strikes like the wind, with one fatal move.

Her body, hands, and legs all have their own memories. When in danger, she takes action directly without thinking about it.

In the past, she could kill with one move, but she couldn't use such a move, let alone react so quickly.

He Ran looked at the dagger spinning in his hand. The previous owner of this body was a killer.

She thought of Zuo Xiaoai's guess. She believed that Zuo Xiaoai would not make random guesses. He must have discovered the shadow of Jinghong Tower in the details of the killers' actions. If the person who trained these killers was not Li Jinxiu, then who else would it be? ?Is it my aunt from far south?

If these killers really come from Jinghong Tower, then where is the owner of her body? Is she the same?

She stood up and walked to the window, looking at the bustling street outside the window, and let out a long sigh, Xiao Chizi, if you knew better, would you regret it now?
At that time, the princes in the world were in dispute, and the royal family existed in name only.

Zhou Chi's father Zhou Jun is one of them.

Later, Zhou Jun was killed by his own brother Zhou Tong.Zhou Jun has three daughters and two sons. The three daughters have grown up, but the two sons are still young, and his wife Di Shi can only wash her face with tears and feel sorry for herself.

After Zhou Tong assassinated his brother, he wanted to kill Zhou Chi, who was Zhou Jun's eldest son. Fortunately, Zhou Chi was clever and escaped from the Zhou Family Fort, and was rescued by the nosy He Jinghong.

Zhou Tong first bribed the clan elders to gain support from the Zhou clan, and then took over all of Zhou Jun's affairs openly.

At that time, the Di family, with their youngest son Zhou Wen, endured their anger and lived in the family.

More than ten years later, Zhou Chi returned to Zhoujiapu, killed Zhou Tong, rescued Di and Zhou Wen, and took back everything that belonged to him.

Di's feelings for her lost son were very complicated. The son was capable, but he was very alienated from her. After more than ten years, the son was found, but the relationship between mother and son had faded.

Di doted on her younger son Zhou Wen even more.

She planned everything for Zhou Wen. It was not until later that Zhou Wen colluded with the enemy and trapped Zhou Chi in death. Zhou Chi escaped from danger and captured Zhou Wen. Only then did she discover that Zhou Wen violated military discipline, raped and detained five people. Six civilian women committed multiple crimes together. Zhou Chi ordered Zhou Wen to be expelled from the Zhou clan and executed in front of the army as a warning to others.Di witnessed her beloved little son being chopped to pieces by a thousand knives. She became seriously ill. After she recovered, she went crazy and inquired about the whereabouts of the victimized women. After she found them, she asked the doctor to check them one by one. When she learned that one of them After becoming pregnant, the woman was quietly locked up. The woman hated Zhou Wen so much that she did not want to give birth to a child for her enemy. She tried to commit suicide several times but failed. Until the time of giving birth, the woman took advantage of Wen Po's absence. Prepare, kill yourself to death with the scissors prepared to cut the umbilical cord!

When Di learned that the woman was dead, she had her son removed by caesarean section.

Although Di loved her son very much, she also knew that Zhou Wen had a bad reputation and had been expelled from the Zhou family, so she thought of what she thought was the best way.

She asked Zhou Chi to put the child in his name and make him his son.

Thinking of this, He Ran smiled helplessly.

Back then, she had persuaded Zhou Chi to send the child away so that Di could not find it and disappear from the world.

Zhou Chi agreed, but Di took poison and committed suicide, exchanging his own life for the child's identity.

Di died and never became the Queen Mother, but she used her death to gain Zhou Chi's promise.

During a previous enemy attack, the maid Bai Zhi committed suicide by jumping off a cliff to cover Di's family, so the child was recorded in Bai Zhi's name.

It is a common thing for a mother's maid to become her son's mistress.

After Zhou Chi ascended the throne, he made Bai Zhi his concubine, and the child became his second prince.

When Di died, Zhou Chi was the only one beside him.

Except for her and Zhou Chi, no other person knew about this at the time.

But Zhou Chi was married to Min Lan at that time, and there were no absolute secrets between the couple, so Min Lan probably knew about it.

So what about the second prince and later Emperor Taizong? Did he also know about this before he decided to fight for the chair?
Zhou Wen once harmed Zhou Chi, and he died at the hands of Zhou Chi. They were already enemies, but in the end, the world that Zhou Chi had fought so hard to conquer fell into the hands of his enemy's son.

What a ridiculous thing!

He Ran thought it was thanks to her being gone at that time, otherwise she would have been mad to death.

No, if she had been here at that time, she would not have allowed this to happen, and even Zhou Chi might not have died early.

And what role did Min Lan play in this matter?
And the third and fourth children, were they involved?

Min Lan has no children, and all the princes in Zhouchi are not from Min Lan, even the third and fourth sons.
After coming back for so long, He Ran didn't want to think deeply about it, because every time she thought about it, she would feel sad for Zhou Chi. In addition to Zhou Chi, there was also Prince Zhou Dong, the child she watched being born.

They all died, when she couldn't see it and didn't know it at all. Their death shocked the whole country, but they died in a confused way.

He Ran looked at the dagger in her hand. The sharp body of the dagger reflected her eyebrows.

The dagger was hers, and at this moment, the dagger was in her own hand.
