Rebirth!Wear it until the day the scumbag father takes my concubine as his wife!

Yun Shang felt that the truth about Song Zhaoyi's death was very important. If the queen really killed Song Zhaoyi, Chu Yin would never help Chu Ming again, and would most likely turn against her.

Xie Minghui shook her head, "The emperor has always been on guard against the queen. He decreed that if anything happens to Concubine Yi, it will be the queen's responsibility. No matter how unwilling the queen is, she cannot do anything to her.

Even to protect her safety. "

Yun Shang was confused, "So, Concubine Yi really died of illness?"

"I don't know. She died suddenly. After her death, the emperor forbade anyone to talk about her or even mention her. The queen was punished for this, but it was not serious.

Based on the emperor's love for the imperial concubine, if it was really the queen's problem, it would be impossible to let the queen go, and he also gave the third prince to the queen to raise. "

"My uncle doesn't know how the imperial concubine died?"

"I don't know. It's very possible that the imperial concubine really died of illness. She has been thinking about your uncle in her heart, and her condition was not very good after entering the palace. After the news of your uncle's death came, she locked herself in the room and cried every day. .

I went to the palace to persuade her, but she seemed to be in extremely bad condition at that time.

It was only after I had the third prince that I gradually got better. "

According to Xie Minghui's statement, it is possible that Song Zhaoyi died of illness. The truth discovered by Chu Ming in his previous life was probably fabricated to win over Chu Yin.

but--

Yun Shang looked around to make sure no one was eavesdropping, then she approached Xie Miaohui and asked in a low voice, "Mom, is it possible that the third prince is my uncle's child?"

Song Zhaoyi loved Xie Qingping so much that it was hard for her to imagine that Song Zhaoyi would give birth to a child for Emperor Wen of Chu.

Xie Minghui shook her head again,

"She became pregnant with the third prince after your uncle died." At this point, Xie Yinghui showed an unspeakable expression on her face and hesitated for a long time before continuing, "She said that the emperor was drunk and gave her to... This is how the third prince came to be.

Before this, she had not let the emperor touch her. "

Hearing this, Yun Shang was a little sad, and after a pause, he continued to ask.

"Since the Emperor likes Concubine Yi so much, why doesn't he seem to like the Third Prince?"

Yun Shang recalled the scene in the court hall. Chu Yin was very cold to Emperor Chu Wen, and Emperor Chu Wen also did not give his son a look.

Logically speaking, Chu Yin was the child he had with his beloved woman, so he should be loved in every possible way and should not be so cold.

In her previous life, after assisting Chu Ming, she gradually learned that Emperor Chu Wen's favorite was the second prince, not the third prince.

"The cause of the imperial concubine's death is probably related to his excessive pampering. If he treated the third prince like that, it would be difficult for the third prince to grow up."

Sometimes keeping a proper distance can also be a form of protection.

Yunshang felt that it was more than just that, but she couldn't figure it out. She didn't even know these things in her previous life.

But no matter what, she finally understood why Emperor Chu Wen hated the Xie family so much.

Through Xie Minghui's description, Emperor Chu Wen loved Song Zhaoyi to the point of going crazy, but Song Zhaoyi liked Xie Qingping instead.No man would be able to accept it, let alone Emperor Chu Wen, who was narrow-minded and vindictive.

In addition, the Xie family is very prestigious among the people and the army. With double hatred, how could the Xie family be easily let go.

I haven't taken action now, but I haven't found a good reason.

Yun Shang knew in her heart that no matter what the Xie family did, Emperor Chu Wen would never let the Xie family go.

"Shang Shang, please don't tell anyone about this matter, don't even mention it."

After Song Zhaoyi's death, Emperor Chu Wen forbade anyone to mention her, and Chu Yin had been investigating secretly.

Xie Qingping went to war and left the capital early when he was young. When Song Zhaoyi went to find him, he always climbed up the wall quietly, and the two families also deliberately concealed it.In addition to the imperial edict of Emperor Chu Wen, not many people knew about this matter.

Therefore, Yun Shang always thought in her previous life that Emperor Wen of Chu was afraid of the Xie family, so he ransacked the family.

Now it seems that she wants to take a long-term approach.

half a month later.

"Second Prince, after passing Zhouyuan City, it will take about six or seven days to reach Jiangliu County. This is the most severely affected place in the entire Jiangnan area."

Chu Zhi and Chu Yin worked hard and finally arrived in Jiangnan within half a month.

It was faster to take the waterway before, but the damage here was serious and the waterway was very dangerous, so we had to walk.

They have been rushing for time this time. The sooner they arrive at the disaster area, the smaller the casualties will be.

After hearing what the minister beside him said, Chu Zhi frowned and looked up out the window. It was cloudy and raining.

"Master Li, how long has it been raining here?"

"Reporting to the Second Prince, it has been raining for almost half a month, but compared to other towns, the rainfall is relatively light. This road is very safe."

Half a month!

Chu Zhi thought of what Yun Shang had said to her, and walked along Zhouyuan City. There was a section of the road in the valley, and there was no way to avoid it if there was a flash flood.

The rain outside doesn't look heavy, but if it rains like this for half a month, flash floods will occur if the rain gets a little heavier, which is too dangerous.

Seeing that Chu Zhi had been looking at the rain outside the window and thinking, the local official stood up and said, "Second prince, the situation in Jiangliu County is very critical. The local area has long been out of food. After the flood, many people contracted dysentery, and the people could not afford it. .”

"Second Prince, the rain is not heavy and will not affect our journey."

Many officials thought that Chu Zhi didn't want to rush on the road in the rain. They were angry and stood up to persuade him.

They didn't know why the royal family was afraid of Chu Zhi coming. Compared to Chu Ming, who had a good reputation, Chu Zhi's rumors were not that good.

It sounds nice to be kind, but actually it means you are soft-tempered.

Moreover, he was in poor health and often fell ill. I looked down on him in my heart and felt that he would only delay things.

Just like this time, it's raining so much outside, why can't we hurry up?

Chu Yin was silent most of the time, but when it mattered to the people, he still stood up and said, "Just take this road and set off immediately." He was impatient and made an immediate decision.

Chu Zhi knew that everyone had misunderstood, and hurriedly said: "No, look at this road, there are mountains on both sides. It has been raining for half a month, and the rain in the mountains is already saturated.

If the rainfall increases even slightly, it may burst out and we will all be buried in it. "

Chu Zhi's words made several officials stop, look at the terrain map marked by Chu Zhi, and think carefully, this situation is very likely to happen.

"What the Second Prince said is true, but the rain has gradually weakened in the past two days, and it should clear up."

"The main reason is that Jiangliu County can't wait any longer. If we don't take this road, we have to go around here, which will take five days longer. I'm worried that the people won't be able to wait that long."

Chu Zhi's worries are not unreasonable, but the local situation is urgent, and the longer it takes, the more people will die.

The rain outside has indeed become lighter, and you can even vaguely see the blue sky, as if it is about to clear up.

Chu Zhi felt a little shaken and found it difficult to make a decision for a while.

Maybe it really won't rain?
