Gu Xingyan sighed slightly and whispered, "She is the eldest daughter of the second branch of the Li family. Her name is Li Shuangzhi. She and Li Yuanming are twins, a boy and a girl."

Li Shuangwan stood up from his chair in shock: "You, you mean Ling Heng's concubine's daughter is the daughter of my second uncle, and she and Li Yuanming are twins?"

Gu Xingyan nodded: "Do you still remember the prophecy made by the Northern Jin Imperial Observatory twenty years ago?"

Of course Li Shuangwan remembered.

The Imperial Astronomical Observatory observed the celestial phenomena at night and said that the Ziwei star and the Longtan star were descending to earth, and that twins, a dragon and a phoenix, would be born in Shengjing City, which indicated that the fortune of Northern Jin was about to end.

In order to solve the problem, the dragon and phoenix twins must be killed to ensure peace and prosperity.

At that time, almost all the twins in the entire Shengjing City, whether they were boy and girl twins or not, were killed.

Li Shuangwan finally figured it all out.

No wonder Ling Heng wanted to use the baby in her belly.

No wonder Tingning's eyebrows and eyes are so similar to hers.

And he married her because she had the entire General's Mansion behind her.

Secondly, in his previous life, when Ling Heng came to the cold palace to burn her, he said that on his fifth birthday, his father had a conversation with Emperor Jingzhang in the imperial study, which he heard.

Ling Heng did not tell her what her father had said to Emperor Jingzhang that made him hate the General's Mansion so much that he used a trick to make her marry him.

Then he took advantage of the merits of the General's Mansion to ascend the throne. After he firmly established the throne, he raised the butcher knife against them without hesitation.

"Where is she? I want to see her." Li Shuangwan's eyes were red.

Everything that happened in the past life is closely related to Li Shuangzhi.

She wanted to ask her carefully whether she knew what Ling Heng had done.

"Okay. I'll take you to see her after the palace banquet is over."

Li Shuangwan nodded gently, leaned into Gu Xingyan's arms, and closed her eyes deeply.

Gu Xingyan gently kissed the top of her head and hugged the girl tightly in his arms.

He gently wiped away the tears on the girl's face with his fingertips.

When his revenge is achieved, he will never let the girl in his arms shed a tear again.

……

The next day, in the afternoon.

General Li Huaiying returned to Shengjing from the northwest with his wife and children.

Behind him were more than 500 soldiers.

Three hundred thousand Li family troops stayed behind in the northwest.

Li Shuangwan and Gu Xingyan stood side by side on the second floor, looking at the people below who were cheering and shouting to welcome the general's triumphant return.

Accompanied by the sound of steady and powerful horse hooves, dozens of horsemen appeared at the city gate.

"General Li is here!"

"The general is mighty!"

"Young General Li, you are so handsome!"

"Mrs. Zhu is so heroic and beautiful!"

Li Shuangwan on the second floor burst into tears and his body couldn't stop shaking.

My father was wearing armor, his eyes were piercing, and he had a precious spear casually tucked under his armpit.

The string of red necklaces on the tip of the precious spear was particularly eye-catching. She made it when she was ten years old and hung it on the tip of her father's spear.

My father even said it was ugly, but he never took it off in all these years.

Whenever he returned from a battle, he would always carefully clean the mud and blood stains on his clothes without asking anyone else to do it for him.

Then he said with disgust: So ugly.

Walking side by side with the father was the mother, who was wearing a red outfit and her hair was simply tied into a ponytail with a ribbon, hanging casually on her back.

The so-called heroic and valiant women who are as good as men probably refer to women who are like mothers.

Behind the two of them was their elder brother Li Yuanqiao, dressed in fine clothes and riding a horse.

He was wearing silver flowing cloud armor and a red cloak. The sunlight shining on the armor seemed to create layers of golden waves, making his handsome face look even more three-dimensional and delicate.

Li Yuanqiao seemed to sense something and turned to look at the second floor behind him.

The horse carried him away.

Li Shuangwan watched them go away. Now, his father, mother, brother, and all the people in the General's Mansion were still alive and well in this world.

very nice.

Gu Xingyan gently put his arm around her shoulders and let her lean on him: "If you want to cry, just cry."

Tears poured down my face, no longer under control.

He felt equally sad.

When he learned in the Daliang Palace that Wanwan's family had been massacred by Ling Heng, the pain of his broken heart was nothing compared to what he felt for the girl in front of him.

She watched helplessly as her family was slaughtered by Ling Heng one by one.

"In the previous life, my father's head was cut off by Ling Shijiang, and it fell beside the pillar of the country in the General's Mansion. He never understood until his death why the Li family, who had guarded the northwest border for decades, became a traitor who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country."

"My elder brother was drugged and married to a lowly woman, causing unrest in the family. In the end, he committed suicide by drinking the sword."

"My mother died of depression because of my brother's affairs."

"Luo Man, on the second day after I married into Prince Heng's mansion, I was plotted against by Wan Yuzhi and lost my life when I entered the palace."

"Yizhu, on the day I gave birth, Ling Heng sold her to the lowest-class brothel. She was tortured to death in just one day. There was not a single piece of good flesh on her body."

"All 381 people in my general's mansion were killed, not a single one survived, not even the dogs in the backyard were spared."

These words, spoken again, are heart-wrenching.

Gu Xingyan gently stroked her back over and over again, gradually calming Li Shuangwan down.

"Just do whatever you want to do, don't worry, I'm here for you."

I will clear the thorns along the way for you.

I will clear away all the obstacles in the mountains and fields for you.

It’s just that if gods stand in the way, gods will be killed; if Buddhas stand in the way, Buddhas will be killed.

He, Gu Xingyan, is also an evil ghost that crawled out of hell, who is he afraid of!

Gu Xingyan kissed her tearful eyes and kissed away the tears on her face bit by bit.

He kissed her lips again, pried open her pearly teeth, and let her slowly fall limply into his arms.

Li Shuangwan really wanted to find her parents, but she knew that Ling Heng's people were all around the inn.

What Gu Xingyan and Li Shuangwan didn't know was that in another room two rooms away from theirs.

There is one more person.

Ling Heng was also looking down at Li Huaiying and others who were being greeted by the cheers of thousands of people in Shengjing City.

Clenching my hands into fists, you stupid bastards!

Two months ago, there was a locust plague in the east of Northern Jin Dynasty. After he went there, he turned the tide, prevented the grain from being damaged, and saved the food supply for tens of thousands of people.

After returning to Shengjing City, these untouchables were nothing special.

Could it be that he, the crown prince, is not as good as a minister?

Zhang Wanqi, his aide who was standing behind him, saw Ling Heng's expression and took a step forward.

He whispered, "Your Highness, I have heard people say that in the northwest, only General Li is known, but not the Emperor."

Ling Heng turned around abruptly and stared at Zhang Wanqi with a pair of bloodshot eyes.

Zhang Wanqi took a step back and bowed, saying, "I am sorry for what I said. This Northern Jin is the Northern Jin of the Ling family, and in the future it will be your Northern Jin, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"What have the people in the Daliang delegation been doing these days?"
