Chapter 305 The Rebellious Past

Chapter 307 The Rebellious Past

Thinking of this, Yi Xue made herself break out in a cold sweat. She had always had a preconceived idea that Concubine You Gui was a noble, well-mannered lady with no bad intentions and was very approachable.But now, he realized that he didn't know her at all, even a little bit, except that she was Master You's daughter.

No, the problem must be figured out, otherwise I will be used by others, and I don't even know how to die.Having made up her mind, Yi Xue thought about who she should ask best.

After much deliberation, I had no choice but to ask the old prince, and only the old prince knew the most about the palace, but I was afraid that the old prince would not say anything.But it is related to the Zhang family's murder, no matter what, we must ask clearly.Thinking of this, Yi Xue sat up sooner rather than later, didn't even take care of lunch, and took Liu Jin to the prince's mansion.

The old prince was resting at home, and when he heard that Yi Xue had arrived, a smile appeared on his face, as if his grandson had arrived.The old concubine held Yi Xue's hand with a smile, and showed more enthusiasm, which made Yi Xue still not quite used to it.General Xiao Bufan went to the barracks, and it is said that he was very busy, sometimes he stayed in the barracks and rarely came back.Xiao shi was holding a kettle at home and fiddled with the flowers and colors in the yard, which seemed demure and elegant.

"Girl Yixue, why are you looking for me again today?" The old prince held a palm-sized purple pot and took a sip from time to time. Although he asked, his expression was somewhat puzzled, because he could see that Yixue His complexion was not very good. Although he was smiling, his smile was a little stiff, obviously he didn't come to visit them.

Yi Xue smiled lightly, helped the old concubine to sit down, and then sat down beside her. Seeing that the two elders were looking at her, she hesitated for a moment, and finally made up her mind and said, "My lord, my concubine, Yi Xue still has something to do." I can’t figure it out, it’s inconvenient to ask others for advice, so I’m here to bother the old prince and the old princess.”

"Oh, let's talk in the study." The old prince said immediately, Yi Xue came to talk about things, and usually he was involved in the important affairs of the court, so the old prince got up subconsciously.

Yi Xue said hastily, "My lord, this matter is not a military matter, I'm afraid I have to bother the old concubine, I hope the old concubine can also clear up Yi Xue's confusion."

The old concubine looked at Yi Xue curiously, and said in surprise, "Could it be that there is something wrong with me? Could it be that Xiao Yu did something bad again?"

Hearing the old concubine mention Xiao Yu, Yi Xue's face turned red like flying, and said hastily, "It has nothing to do with the prince, the old concubine is too worried."

"In that case, you say so," the old prince said with a smile.

Yi Xue looked around, except for a few servant girls, there was no one else.Although he was a little apprehensive in his heart, he thought that in the prince's mansion, he would not be overheard, so he said, "My lord, I want to know something about Concubine You. Can the old lord and the old concubine tell Yi Xue?"

Hearing Yi Xue's words, the old prince and the old princess looked at each other with surprise and some uneasiness in their eyes.Yi Xue saw the key point at a glance. Sure enough, having a noble concubine is very problematic, so here is the question to confirm.

The prince and princess quickly recovered their calm, as if nothing had happened.The old prince looked at Yi Xue, with an inexplicable taste in his eyes, and took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "Since you asked Concubine You Gui, we should have told you Yours, but we are also uneasy, especially every time you come, it is even more uneasy. Since you asked today, we will no longer hide from you, what you said is also right, there is a noble concubine We know everything best, and the old concubine knows her situation best, old woman, now that this time has come, let’s talk about it, so that we won’t be able to sleep late at night and innocently ruin our lives.”

Seeing Yi Xue's expectant eyes, the old concubine's expression became painful, and she hesitated to speak, as if she didn't know what to say.Yi Xue looked at the old concubine, and she understood a little bit, that there might be an indistinct relationship between the noble concubine and the prince's mansion.

The old concubine glanced at the old prince, saw him nodding his head encouragingly, and finally sighed, "Concubine You, she is my daughter..."

What?Yi Xue was taken aback, how could this be possible?

Shocked, extremely shocked, not only Yi Xue, but Xiao Shi also stared at the old concubine dumbfounded, and then asked nervously, "Mother, you... you said she is..."

The old concubine touched the arm of the chair, a little haggard, and her words were no longer natural, "This matter... I should have told you a long time ago. After all these years, I still can't bear it. After all, she is my... daughter..."

What's the situation, Yi Xue is a little messy, what is going on.After all kinds of guesses in her mind, she heard the explanation from the old princess.

"Before I met the old prince, I was a female bandit leader on Mount Deng, that is, a bandit who robbed houses. You know that," the old princess said calmly, but the bleakness in her eyes It shows that she is extremely restless.

It's no wonder that the old concubine has a fierce and spicy smell, or it's called gangster spirit, or courage, so she was a female bandit before, isn't that just like Xue Dingshan and Fan Lihua?There is such a love story in this world.

Xiao nodded. She knew all about the old concubine's past, and the old concubine never concealed it. All the old people in the empire knew about it.Although the old concubine was aggressive, she was definitely an enlightened mother, worthy of their respect, so they never underestimated the old concubine's past.

"When I was a female bandit leader, I was accidentally assassinated by another bandit leader..." When the old princess said this, there was hatred on her face, and her tone was even more unnatural, rather heavy, "Later , I just found out that I was pregnant, and at this time, I met the old prince who went up the mountain to suppress the bandits, and the old prince hit it off with me." When she said this, the old princess' face turned rosy, "But I am pregnant. I was born recklessly again, how could I dare to climb up to the old prince, but the old prince is a loving person, and he didn't dislike me in the slightest. Not only did he kill all the bandits who insulted me, but he also took me back to the Xiao family. At that time, the Xiao family But the old lady of a famous family strongly opposed it and almost wanted to execute me. The old prince desperately disobeyed the old queen's will and overcame the obstruction of the family, so he married me, hehe, at that time..." As she said, her face was full of gratitude looked at the old prince.

The old prince nodded, and looked at the old princess with gentle eyes. The air was full of warmth, mutual affection, tacit understanding, and reservedness.

The old concubine smiled awkwardly and said, "Although I was accepted, the Xiao family did not recognize the child in my womb. I secretly sent the child out after giving birth behind the old prince's back. I also regretted it at that time." However, I felt that I was too cruel, so I went looking for it later, and found out after many inquiries that Master You adopted my daughter. Master You was a good person, knowledgeable and capable, but it was a pity that I discovered his ambition later. too big"

Hearing this, on the one hand, Yi Xue lamented the old prince's devotion to being able to defy family power, on the other hand, she also felt sad about the birth of Concubine You. It was such a painful thing to be abandoned right after she was born.

"Could it be that Concubine You still doesn't know you?" Yi Xue asked.

The old concubine sighed and lamented, "She already knew it, so she hates us and my ruthlessness. Hehe..., I have hated myself too over the years. If I could raise her back then, I'm afraid it would have been impossible. There will be a murder case eighteen years ago. Hey, we are all confused."

After Yi Xue heard about it, she vaguely felt that Concubine You Gui was not as simple as she appeared on the surface. The Zhang family murder 18 years ago must have had a significant relationship with Concubine You, and she hurriedly waited for the old concubine's next words.

"Yixue, we also know what you want to ask now. Since you want to know, we don't have to hide it. When Yu'er came back and asked me about the Zhang family's murder, I knew that one day the Zhang family would ask about it." It's..." the old princess said with a wry smile.

Sure enough, there is an inside story inside, could it be that he is also deeply involved with the Prince's Mansion?

"Please tell the old concubine clearly." Yi Xue gritted her teeth, she must know what happened back then.

Seeing the old prince shaking his head, the old concubine smiled wryly and said, "Old prince, one day it will be revealed, it's just a matter of time, if we don't talk about it, can it wash away our sins?"

The old prince stopped talking with a heavy expression, sighed, stood up, and walked out slowly, his back looked extremely bleak and desolate.

"Don't blame him, it's because he protects me and my daughter, Yi Xue, if you know the truth of the matter, I don't ask you to forgive me, but you must forgive the old prince, okay?" Her face was extremely ugly, that's all, she was still looking forward to Yi Xue's answer.

Yi Xue's heart was already heavy. She knew that this matter had already been involved with the Prince's Mansion, and it was deeply involved. I'm afraid that even the Prince's Mansion was involved in what happened back then.Otherwise, why are the old prince and the old princess so far-fetched?If so, she didn't know how to answer the old princess, forgive them?Impossible, hundreds of people in the Zhang family died, could they rest in peace with just one sentence?Her nose twitched, a sense of sadness welled up her nose, she almost shed tears, but she didn't shake her head or nod.

"Mother, why did you get involved with our family back then?" Xiao Shi is smart, and these conversations immediately made her understand that the Prince's Mansion was also involved back then.

Seeing that Yi Xue did not agree to her, the old concubine sighed slightly and said, "Concubine You Gui was adopted by the You family. After she grew up, she somehow found out that I was her own mother. She came to recognize me. Back then, my mother-in-law also Even though the old queen has not passed away, of course she doesn't want to recognize this unnamed granddaughter. I also did something wrong back then, but I didn't recognize her. Maybe it was my selfishness that caused her to hold grudges. Since then, she never never found me"

"Later, she entered the palace and created a erotic case. Hehe, that was really a sinful disaster."

Yi Xue's heart trembled, she had guessed like this, but she couldn't believe it at all, Concubine You's gentle image has always been admired by Yi Xue, but she didn't expect it to be so, Yi Xue wanted to cry in her heart, but she was more angry, I was used by Concubine You Gui.This woman actually hides so deeply. If a woman's mind reaches such a level that people don't even want to guess, it's really scary.

"Old princess, could it be that Concubine You Gui was the one who wanted to be queen back then?" Yi Xue suppressed the fierce struggle in her heart, and her tone became anxious.

The old concubine nodded and said helplessly, "I don't know this daughter anymore, she has become very strange. Unfortunately, I didn't raise her and didn't teach her well....Master You is a very talented official, but he is also a very talented official. A snobbish person, he instigated Concubine You to get close to the Holy One, and tried his best to elevate his status. Unfortunately, Prime Minister Li Yuelong took control of the government back then, and it was not the turn of Lord You. Li Yuelong was also a headstrong person, and he also wanted to let Miss Li Jia become the mother of the country. The throne, hehe, the harem, that is a place full of power struggles, not at all inferior to the imperial court."

"Listening to Lord You's words, Concubine You tried her best to get close to the Holy Majesty, but at that time the Holy Majesty favored Zhang Ziyue from Taifu Zhang's family, and her concubines didn't even look at her. Zhang Ziyue is a favorite of thousands of people, which is really the yearning of all women in the world. of"

Hearing what the old concubine said here, Yi Xue's doubts gradually disappeared. Concubine You Gui said that she entered the palace late and had never seen Zhang Ziyue. Obviously, she had a big discrepancy with the old concubine. She thought she was hiding herself intentionally, or to get rid of herself.In this way, Yi Xue will not suspect her.

"In order to compete for power, my daughter actually used a erotic scroll to assassinate Zhang Ziyue in a frenzied way. With the help of Li Yuelong and the queen, and the help of Li Yanzhi, the Zhang family was wiped out.", the old concubine Speaking of mental exhaustion, she personally told the evil things about her own daughter, and I am afraid that her heart is also fragile.

Yi Xue already had all the facts of the whole incident in her heart, and Concubine You had hidden it very deeply. No wonder she narrated the incident so smoothly, as if she had personally experienced it. It turned out that she was the one who led it.No wonder the empress and Li Yanzhi have average friendship with her, they seem to be afraid of Concubine You, so it makes sense.At that time, I thought that Concubine You Gui was a person who valued love and righteousness,... Wait, is the story about the second uncle also fake?

"Old Princess, have you heard about the matter between Concubine You Gui and my second uncle Zhang Xuan?" Yi Xue asked hastily.

The old concubine was slightly puzzled, and then asked, "What does she have to do with your second uncle?"

Yi Xue was silent, either the old concubine didn't know about it, or Concubine You made it up. According to Concubine You's deliberate intention to climb to the position of queen, I am afraid that what she said about Zhang Xuan's revenge and investigation is also false By the way, that part of the past was also made up to make me believe her.

What a cunning mind, she fabricated these experiences, probably for her to eradicate dissidents in the harem.Use me, use my hands to get rid of the queen and Li Yanzhi, and then she can easily become the queen.
