Overcoming all difficulties, the princess is reborn to become the empress
Chapter 224 Best Friend
Listening to Bai Zhu's story, Su Yunxuan became more and more confused and upset. After repeatedly assuring Su Changfeng that she had rested well, she urged everyone to set off again.
With Bai Shu and others escorting them, there were no more accidents on the road. However, before they reached the military camp, they met Su Muxiao who was riding a horse halfway.
When Su Muxiao saw the living Su Yunxuan, his face was filled with shock at first, and then he smiled with joy.
Seeing that Su Yunxuan was about to pay him a big respect, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop her. Just as he grabbed Su Yunxuan's arm, he let go in shock. With an awkward smile, he turned to Su Changfeng and muttered, "Help her up, help her up..."
Su Changfeng nodded repeatedly, lifted Su Yunxuan with a little more strength, and said with a smile: "Father has received your kindness, but he is injured, so stand up quickly."
"Yes, you have got what you wished for, but you must take good care of the person." Su Muxiao nodded vigorously.
After saying this, seeing Su Yunxuan's face flushed, Su Muxiao pretended to cough, turned to Su Changfeng who had agreed, and said seriously: "I almost forgot the main thing, I came here to inform you that something big happened in the palace.
I received a secret letter from my father...Prince Xu, saying that the emperor has fallen into a coma, and the queen mother has tied up Concubine Xu and announced to the world that Concubine Xu is a witch who has brought disaster to the emperor, and will be beheaded in three days as a sacrifice to the heavens. "
"When did this happen? Why didn't Bai Shu send anyone to inform me..." Bai Shu was shocked.
"It was just collected this morning..." Su Muxiao said.
"Sent by Prince Xu? Father, do you know Prince Xu's attitude?" Su Changfeng asked, holding Su Yunxuan tightly.
Su Muxiao looked at Su Changfeng, frowned slowly, and said solemnly: "He...he was going to watch."
"Watch? What does that mean?" Su Yunxuan was surprised and puzzled.
Su Muxiao glanced at Su Yunxuan apologetically but did not answer her.
Su Yunxuan turned and looked at Su Changfeng.
Su Changfeng's face was solemn, he lowered his eyes and remained silent.
Bai Shu glanced at the expressions of the three people, sighed, and pulled Ruoying, who was about to speak, aside.
Su Yunxuan pulled Su Changfeng and wanted to ask more questions, but Su Changfeng grabbed her hand and said first: "I'll explain it to you on the way."
After saying that, he turned to Su Muxiao and asked, "Father, you still don't want to go back?"
Su Muxiao shook his head, "I'm not going back."
"Okay, take care, father." After Su Changfeng said this, he was about to support Su Yunxuan and turn around to leave.
Su Muxiao hurried forward, patted Su Changfeng on the shoulder, and solemnly warned him: "Changfeng, just do your best, and remember to protect your and her safety. If it really doesn't work, you can come back to me. I can always protect you for the rest of your life..."
"Thank you, father. I know what to do." Su Changfeng interrupted him and helped Su Yunxuan to bid farewell to Su Muxiao.
The carriage set off again, heading straight for the capital of Yunsheng.
On the way, Su Changfeng told Su Yunxuan all the inside information about Yunsheng that he knew.
As he told Su Yunxuan before, Su Shaoyu must be the illegitimate son of the Queen Mother and Prince Xu. Prince Xu turned against the Queen Mother because he knew the true identity of Su Shaoyu.
Prince Xu and the Queen Mother once had a love affair, the specific details of which are unknown. According to a brief mention by his grandfather, Master Bai, the fate of Prince Xu and the Queen Mother should have started when Prince Xu agreed to take the Queen Mother with him to conquer Chaoxia.
The relationship between his grandfather, Master Bai, and the Queen Mother was also elusive. In addition to being the Queen Mother's brother-in-law, Master Bai seemed to be particularly afraid of her. No matter how Su Changfeng asked, Master Bai was unwilling to say more, and even warned Su Changfeng not to offend the Queen Mother easily unless it was absolutely necessary.
Since the Queen Mother had already been engaged to Prince Xu, why did she suddenly marry the late Emperor?
Since she later entered the palace as a concubine, why did she get together with Prince Xu again many years later and have Su Shaoyu?
Master Bai refused to speak clearly. In order to find out the truth, after Master Bai passed away, Su Changfeng could only ask Bai Shu and Bai Shu, who had always followed Master Bai, to try hard to recall their childhood.
Time was short at that time and Su Changfeng needed to rush back to Fenglan as soon as possible. Bai Shu and Bai Shu tried hard to recall, but they could only remember the grand banquet in the Taifu Mansion that year.
Before that grand banquet, although Master Bai had ascended to the position of Master Yunsheng at the age of 26, he had been brooding over the strained relationship he had with his good friend Su Dongxu for many years.
The relationship between Taifu Bai and Prince Xu is completely bad. Apart from Prince Xu's misunderstanding that it was Taifu Bai who facilitated the Queen Mother's marriage to the late Emperor, the relationship also originated from an earlier time.
Master Bai was born in the Bai family, and the Bai family has been committed to assisting wise rulers for generations. After the young Bai Muchuan resigned from the position of Chaoxia State Master, he met Su Dongxu, who was out to relax and explore in the clouds. Both of them had great ambitions, and they hit it off at first sight. They talked about the world and became close friends.
Recommended by Su Dongxu, Bai Muchuan entered the court of Yunsheng. Su Dongxu was determined to learn from Lu Zhenlin, the commander of the Lu family army, to expand the territory for the country and fight in the south and the north.
Both of them are passionate and active in the fields they like and are good at. When they have the opportunity to meet, they are happy to drink with friends.
Chaoxia was completely divided up by Fenglan and Yunsheng. After Fenglan and Yunsheng became the real overlords of the entire continent, the two met again. After drinking, Bai Muchuan proposed to Su Dongxu the idea buried in his heart:
Su Dongxu has already made great military achievements. As King Xu who has all of Yun Sheng's military forces, why doesn't he just replace the late emperor and make himself king? After all, they are not brothers.
Unexpectedly, after hearing Bai Muchuan's remarks, Su Dongxu smashed the wine bottle and harshly rebuked Bai Muchuan for talking nonsense and being treasonous.
Before leaving, Su Dongxu even punched Bai Muchuan hard in the face, warning him that if he had the intention to betray his master, he would disregard their friendship and kill him.
After that, Su Dongxu went out to fight and did not return to Yunsheng Capital for many years. It was also during these years that Queen Mother Yunshang, who was temporarily living in her sister Yunrong's house, married into the palace.
When Master Bai got older, he liked to drink in his mansion on full-moon nights. When he got drunk, he would often raise his cup to the moon and talk about this past event. He would cry like a child:
Dongxu, your punch was so hard and it hurt so much...
It's really not me who sent Yunshang to the palace, Dongxu, why don't you believe it...
If time could go back, we were just two passionate teenagers with dreams in the clouds, you were not the Xu Wang who held the military power in Yunsheng, and I was not the Taifu who was criticized in the court of Yunsheng, we could still drink to the moon like before, how wonderful it would be...
Dongxu, you and I are like this now, Yunsheng court is like this now, have you ever regretted it...
Bai Shu and Bai Zhu were very familiar with these fragments and words. Whenever these happened, they would clear the area and guard the yard to prevent anyone from approaching.
The grand banquet at the Taifu Mansion that year was the only opportunity for the relationship between Taifu Bai and Prince Xu to ease.
The banquet was held for the 10th birthday of Bai Yeying, the eldest daughter of the Taifu Mansion. Bai Yeying was born with the blood of her ancestors. She was keen on studying medicine when she was young, even to the point of obsession.
According to Bai Shu's recollection, the eldest daughter could not speak at the age of four, but she stayed in the pharmacy of the Grand Tutor all day long, either reading medical books or handling medicinal materials.
At the age of five, she could not speak fluently, but she could write books, which was the answer to almost all the questions asked by adults.
When she was eight years old, the pharmacy in the Taifu Mansion could no longer meet her needs, so she would often sneak out and hang out in various major medical clinics in the capital.
At first, the Grand Tutor and his wife just let her do what she wanted. But later, the eldest daughter had an accident while she was out. She was pushed by someone causing trouble in the clinic, hit her head, and lost her memory.
From then on, the Grand Tutor and his wife forbade the young lady to go out, and locked her up in the mansion for treatment and care. Although her memory could not be restored, fortunately she only forgot her own identity and the people around her. She still had a clear memory of the medical knowledge she had learned and was extremely enthusiastic about it.
The Grand Tutor and his wife loved the eldest daughter very much, and arranged a tenth birthday party for her when she was exactly nine years old.
Coincidentally, the day before the banquet, Prince Xu, who had not returned for many years, suddenly returned to the capital.
