The eldest daughter, her weak character has collapsed again

Chapter 209 The truth of the year
The Pei family?

Gu Yun raised his eyes, doubts flashed across his eyes, "Nephew, why do you ask about this?"

If he didn't directly deny it, then he knew it.

Shangguan Lanruo drank a cup of wine and sighed in her heart, feeling like a tool for the first time.

"Sit down, talk slowly." Gu Yun was not in a hurry, motioned Shen Yuyuan to sit down, and then opened his mouth again, "I do know something about the Pei couple, but His Majesty has expressly prohibited talking about these two people. How did you know that?"

Shen Yuyuan lifted his robe and sat down. When he heard the phrase "expressly prohibited", he frowned slightly, and explained, "At that time, I was living in the country of Mo, and I was helped by these two people."

"So that's how it is." Gu Yun sighed, his eyes fell on Shen Yuyuan's face, and emotion appeared in his eyes, "Speaking of which, time flies so fast, in a blink of an eye, you are so old, think about it, you were less than five years old at that time. The age is coming."

About 15 years ago, he was not the right minister, and the Ying country had not yet destroyed the country. Daxing country and Ying country had close contacts. As an envoy, he went to Ying country and met the child's mother and queen.
What kind of woman is that? A bright palace dress can't resist her peerless elegance. Among thousands of flowers, she looks back slightly, and really looks back with a smile of Bai Meisheng, intoxicating people's hearts. From then on, no woman in the world can enter His heart.

It's a pity, it's a pity, she couldn't be saved.

Every time he thinks of this, Gu Yun, who is in his forties, can't help feeling sad.

Shen Yuyuan didn't speak, quietly waiting for Gu Yun's next words.

"Forget it, since that's your benefactor, it's okay to tell you to listen, but don't be impulsive." Gu Yun felt emotional in his heart, but his face quickly returned to his usual expression, and he opened his mouth slowly.

"Just two years ago, after the defeat of the Mo country, the Pei couple were indeed escorted back to Beijing as prisoners of war. However, the two were also stubborn and wanted to kill themselves in public. Fortunately, they were stopped. General Pei is Your Majesty cherishes the talent of a general, and he couldn't bear to let General Pei die like that, so he separated the two, trying to force General Pei to use him." Having said that, Gu Yun took a sip of his tea.

Shangguan Lanruo was fascinated by listening, thinking, and then?

Then why didn't you see General Pei in the hall now?

If General Pei was really used by His Majesty, he should have become a famous general by now, right?How could it be possible to disappear?
Shen Yuyuan frowned, faintly feeling that what they said next would not be what they wanted to hear.

"Uncle Yun, what next? Tell me first." Shangguan Lanruo propped her chin, watching Gu Yun drink one cup after another, finally couldn't hold back, and asked.

Hearing this, Gu Yun glanced at him, then slowly put down his teacup, "Hey, that's all, do you really want to hear the rest?"

"Gu Bo, tell me." A deep voice sounded.

Shen Yuyuan's eyes darkened slightly, no matter what, they always wanted to know the truth.

"Ok."

Gu Yun's eye sockets were deep, and just when he wanted to continue talking, a servant's voice came from outside the door, "My lord, Your Majesty has sent a message that he is looking for Mr. Shangguan."

The servant outside the door is Gu Yun's confidant, and he always pays attention to the news in the palace. It must be an urgent matter to disturb him right now.

Gu Yun stopped talking and looked at the young man who was drinking in silence, "What's wrong with you?"

Your Majesty is happy hunting today, if not for something serious, he usually wouldn't be looking for trouble at this time.

Shangguan Lanruo: "."

He turned his head to look at the expressionless Shen Yuyuan, er, he really didn't mean to do this.

With that cold expression on his face, Shangguan Lanruo rubbed the soles of his feet with oil, and hurried to the door, "It's nothing, it's nothing, Uncle Yun, go ahead and talk to him, I'll go."

Don't interrupt this important news because of him.

Your Majesty is suspicious, Gu Yun intends to resign from his old age and return to his hometown now, so there must be no problem at this juncture.

Most of the courtiers in the court stand for the faction of the prince or the third prince, and a small number of them belong to the faction of the eighth prince. Only Prime Minister Gu You is neutral, but there is no one in the world who occupies a high position and wants to be alone , the courtiers of all factions are eyeing it.

Tonight's assassination is a clear example.

The carriage was already prepared outside the door. After Shangguan Lanruo finished speaking, she hurried out of Gu's mansion and got into the carriage. The carriage slowly headed towards Ming Qian Hall.

The night became more and more intense.

In the palace, the banquet has already ended.

In the Yunshui Pavilion, only a cold voice sounded slowly, with a bit of indifference, "Now I have taken you out of the palace, and tomorrow there will be a carriage to take you out of the palace, you can tell me about the third prince." gone."

Pei Yanru leaned lazily on the imperial concubine's couch, and glanced at the nanny standing aside who had cleaned up.

Gu Yan went to investigate and found that this person was indeed the personal nurse of the imperial concubine, named Xu Niang, but after the third prince was disfigured when he was ten years old, Xu Niang also suddenly went crazy. She was locked in the cold palace and pretended to be crazy for more than ten years.

Xu Niang was surprised in her heart. She was terrified all the way here. She was afraid of being discovered several times, but she never expected that the journey would be so smooth.

She couldn't help touching her face, her eyes passed through the woman and fell into the bronze mirror not far away, and it was a completely different face.

These three princes and concubines.
Without waiting for her to think about it, Xu Niang felt a little horrified under that indifferent gaze, and hurriedly replied, "Yes, in fact, the third prince's appearance was destroyed by the imperial concubine herself."

Hearing this, Pei Yanru's eyes moved slightly. In the short few months since she came here, seeing the way the imperial concubine and Zhan Qing got along, she guessed that something unpleasant must have happened between the two of them.

But she didn't want to, the reality was crueler than she imagined.

She concealed her thoughts, her tone was still calm, "Why?"

Logically speaking, no matter whether the eighth prince ascended the throne or the third prince ascended the throne, the imperial concubine, as the birth mother, could be the empress dowager, and there was absolutely no need to hurt one son for the sake of another son.

Xu Niang looked at the calm woman in surprise, thinking that she might just be shocked for a moment and didn't know how to react, she continued to say, "This involves a secret matter of the palace. , the two were very affectionate, seeing that a good thing was about to happen, an imperial decree came down, and the two were forced to separate from each other. Day and night when the wind was high, I had an affair with that man, and I did something that I could not live without."

At that time, she was still going to let the wind go.

As Xu Niang spoke, Pei Yanru frowned slightly, she had read a lot in her notebook, and she could have guessed what happened next even if Xu Niang didn't say anything.

"It didn't take long for the imperial concubine to become pregnant. After giving birth to the third prince, she was honored and favored all the way to the position of imperial concubine. However, as the status got higher, the imperial concubine became more and more uneasy, and the third prince also grew up. I am becoming more and more different from your majesty, the imperial concubine is afraid that things will come out, so she ordered me to bribe a skilled guard to pretend to be an assassin."

Everyone in the palace knows what happened next.

Xu is getting older, when Xu Niang recalls the past, she feels a little more guilty.

The Third Prince at that time was only a ten-year-old child.
