good wife

Chapter 82
Jingyi heard that he mentioned King An, so she sat across from him and listened carefully to what he had to say.

"Back then, King An was originally the younger brother of the current emperor. The emperor was the first emperor's son, the third prince; and King An was the fourth prince born to a favorite concubine of the former emperor. King An was very favored during his lifetime. Everyone Everyone thought that the emperor would appoint him as the crown prince, but unexpectedly, when the emperor sent him to a neighboring country, he personally issued an edict to appoint the third prince as the crown prince. He was thousands of miles away from the capital. The crown prince held a coronation ceremony and announced it to the world."

Speaking of this, the expression on Yuan Xi's face was already very solemn, "After King An heard the news, he insisted that the crown prince made something to the emperor at that time, or threatened the emperor. He even refused to return to Beijing. In a fit of anger, the emperor at that time scolded him for being unworthy! In the main hall, he fainted. After that, he fell ill and passed away in less than half a month."

"The emperor passed away, and the crown prince ascended the throne. He became the current emperor, but just one day after the emperor ascended the throne, King An took advantage of his precarious throne and rebelled against him! However, within three months, he was suppressed by the emperor's iron cavalry. , King An was killed on the spot. His wives, concubines and children were all arrested. They were all brought back to the capital and beheaded at the Meridian Gate!"

"All were killed! Did no one escape?" Jingyi asked.

Yuan Xi shook his head, "I've checked, and all those registered in the register have been killed, even the concubine, who is King An's biological mother, was given poisonous wine by the emperor's order, and then her body was thrown in the chaos. Burial mound."

Jingyi shook her head lightly, and sighed: "Time flies by like water, and the pitiful girl is turned into a dry bone! Who would have thought that the favorite concubine who was once loved by the former emperor for more than ten years would end up in such a miserable end!"

Yuan Xi smiled noncommittally: "I think it's her own fault! If she wasn't too arrogant and domineering! How could she end up like this? It can only be said that she is too conceited and too stupid!"

"The men of the royal family are cold-blooded and ruthless, but the women of the royal family are ill-fated! After all, the most unfair thing is the woman!"

Yuan Xi raised his eyebrows, and agreed with her remarks, but it was too bold, if someone listened to it, he would cause trouble again.

Jingyi changed the topic: "Then what about King An's wealth?"

Yuan Xi shook his head, "I don't know. It was rumored 15 years ago that he left a huge amount of wealth, but no one has found it so far."

"Huge wealth, who will tell it when they find it?"

"You don't understand. Most of the treasures he left behind are rare treasures from the palace, which are registered in the Imperial Household Office. Even people in the royal family dare not touch them if they find them, let alone other people? "

Jingyi suddenly realized: "So that's the case. So, what he left behind is very likely in the hands of someone close to him."

Yuan Xi got up, walked a few steps in the room and said: "This is not necessarily the case. King An is suspicious by nature, maybe he will hide somewhere, maybe. However, people have exaggerated when they talk about huge wealth. I will check I checked the account books of the treasury, although those things are good, but the quantity is not much. So it is not as evil as people say. How did you think of asking this?"

Jingyi looked at Yuanxi, this young man was saved by herself, and she was always regarded as a confidant.I should be able to trust him, right?

"I have a good feeling."

Yuan Xi's eyes tightened, "What's wrong?"

Jingyi said solemnly: "Yuanxi, I feel that we are one step away from the truth, but the truth is extremely cruel, and it may drag the entire Pingnan Hou Mansion into the water and fall into hell!"

Yuan Xi's expression was a little nervous: "How could it be? What did you think of? Or did you notice something?"

Jingyi shook her head and said nothing, Yuanxi was even more anxious, put her hands on her shoulders, locked her body, and asked sharply: "Tell me, is there anything that makes you difficult?"

Jing Yi looked up at Yuan Xi's deep eyes, her shadow was clearly reflected in his eyes.From Yuan Xi's eyes, she could clearly feel his tension and concern.But she didn't know how to tell him, this was an extremely complicated feeling that made her feel very clear, but she just couldn't say it, she didn't know how to word it, and she didn't know where to say it first.

Seeing her hesitation, Yuanxi squatted down, covered Jingyi's with both hands, and looked up at her, "Yiyi, is there anything we can't say between us? Say it, maybe I can help you share it!"

A layer of mist appeared in Jingyi's eyes. This kind of Yuanxi moved her. Yuanxi's concern for her was different from that of her family. His concern made her feel that she was also a person who needed to rely on others. Yuanxi's concern for her Caring always makes her feel that she is a weak person who needs someone like Yuan Xi to protect and rely on her.If it was someone else, maybe she wouldn't like this feeling.But this person is Yuanxi, everything is different.

In front of Yuan Xi, she was just a little girl, she didn't have to be wary of him, but instead trusted him a little bit.When dreaming back at midnight, she often dreamed that her soul floated out of this body, away from those who loved her and cared about her.

But in front of Yuanxi, Jingyi felt that she was more like a complete person, rather than a soul without a body.

Jing Yi looked at Yuan Xi's still worried eyes, and said with a light smile, "It's okay, but it's just my own guess, maybe things aren't that bad?"

Yuan Xi still looked at her motionless, but did not make a sound.

Jingyi sighed, and said lightly: "Okay, you get up first, and I'll tell you."

Only then did Yuanxi's expression relax a little, and he sat beside her.

Jingyi adjusted her thoughts, pondered for a while, and then said: "Yuanxi, have you ever thought that if the real identity of Mrs. Yu is revealed, it is very likely that it will be detrimental to the Pingnan Hou Mansion."

"Why? How did you find out?"

"Intuition!" Jingyi said quietly: "Yuanxi, I have a hunch that Yu's real identity may bring disaster to the Pingnanhou Mansion instead!"

Yuan Xi's body trembled, and it was a catastrophe!No, he won't allow this girl to have an accident!He won't allow this to happen!

Seeing the change in his expression, Jingyi knew that it was too sudden for him.Putting his little hand on the back of his hand, he said softly, "Don't worry. Am I trying to find a way?"

"How?" Yuan Xi asked in confusion.

Jingyi nodded, "I always feel that she and An Wang are inextricably linked, but I just can't figure it out. The rebellion of An Wang happened 15 years ago. But the Yu family was in 30 I married into the Su family years ago. Yuanxi, I just can't understand this, so I don't want to tell you."
