Reborn as a legitimate daughter, huh? Why is she different from her previous life?

Dong Linyue whispered in An Yi's ear, and after a while Dong Linyue said to An Yi: "Go."

"Yes!" An Yi turned around and left quickly with a serious face.

The next day.

Yu Menghua and a few others hid in the secret compartment at the bottom of a group of carriages and entered Shuifeng City. The people in this group of carriages were Dong Linyue's men.

The leader of the convoy was an envoy sent by Emperor Donglin to the State of Nanchu to deliver gifts. He heard that the third prince of Nanchu had found his illegitimate son who was wandering outside. Although the son had an embarrassing identity, he won the favor of the Emperor of Nanchu.

Donglin State is adjacent to Nanchu State, and unlike Beifeng State, they are not separated by a mountain, so there are frequent exchanges between the two countries. Otherwise, they would not have made such a high-profile visit to send gifts just for the illegitimate son of the Third Prince of Nanchu.

When Yu Menghua and others learned the news, they were all speculating about the identity of the illegitimate son of the Third Prince of Nanchu. The Emperor of Nanchu and the Third Prince had been fighting each other internally, so why would they treat the Third Prince's illegitimate son differently?

After much thought, several people came up with a bold guess.

Could the so-called illegitimate son of the Third Prince of Nanchu be Feng Yuxuan who escaped back to Nanchu? !

After some calculation, the time does match, but what Yu Menghua can't understand is that Chu Yu and the Third Prince of Nanchu are siblings from the same mother. Although their relationship didn't seem as good as imagined when they were in Beifeng, if there is any common interest between them, cooperation is not impossible.

But why would Emperor Nanchu help Feng Yuxuan?

They don't believe that the Emperor of Nanchu doesn't know Feng Yuxuan's true identity. The Third Prince of Nanchu has been fighting with the Emperor of Nanchu for so many years. Would the Emperor of Nanchu look at Feng Yuxuan differently when he is obviously in the same faction as the Third Prince?

I can’t figure it out. I really can’t figure it out.

Even after they successfully entered the city and lived in a farmhouse under Dong Linyue's arrangement, they still didn't understand what the Southern Chu Kingdom was up to.

After dinner, several people gathered in Yu Menghua's room, still thinking about the affairs of the Southern Chu State.

Suddenly, Yu Menghua seemed to have thought of something, and said solemnly, "Is it possible that the Southern Chu Kingdom has long been controlled by the Qu family?!"

"It is indeed possible." Feng Chengyin's eyes turned cold, "When I captured Chu Yu and the others, I got a lot of information from her."

"Chu Yu came to Beifeng to marry..."

Feng Chengyin recounted the news that Chu Yu had told him at that time, such as how Chu Yu had already laid a lot of groundwork for the third prince of Nanchu, Chu Zhixu, long before coming to Beifeng for the marriage.

For example, she agreed to the marriage because she wanted her son to help her make Beifeng a vassal state of Nanchu without any soldiers.

For example, Qu Yitian has been "cultivating" her since she was very young, etc...

The most important point is that Feng Yuxuan is the adult that Chu Yu mentioned, Qu Yitian’s child.

Dong Linyue's eyes widened in shock, and her mouth opened into an O shape. She knew that Feng Yuxuan was a fake prince, but wasn't it rumored that Feng Yuxuan was the son of Ji Changze, the Grand Tutor of Beifeng Kingdom?

Oh, it seems that Ji Changze is the legitimate son of the Prime Minister of Southern Chu State, and he is childhood sweethearts with Princess Chu Yu. That's why he changed his identity and followed Princess Chu Yu to Northern Feng State.

However, Ji Changze is also a rare talent, otherwise he would not have been in the high position of Grand Tutor in just about twenty years. The Grand Tutor of Beifeng Kingdom is a first-rank official and a minister in the cabinet!

When Dong Linyue received this news from the Dong Lin spy, although she was a little upset that she had bet on the wrong horse, she was also quite envious and jealous of the relationship between Grand Tutor Ji Changze and Princess Chuyu.

Just ask yourself, which woman doesn’t want to find such an affectionate and loyal man to accompany her for life?

Besides, this man is not a person without talent, morals or shame.

And now he told her that all her previous beautiful dreams of love were fake? It was that reclusive Qu family member again? ! !

Are the Qu family members crazy? After destroying Beifeng Kingdom, they are now destroying Donglin Kingdom. Haha, they won’t give up Nanchu Kingdom either. Are the Qu family members dreaming of going to heaven?!

If Yu Menghua knew what she was thinking at this moment, he would definitely nod and tell her affirmatively: The people of the Qu family want to go to heaven, but this heaven is not that heaven.

Everyone slowly came back to their senses from Feng Chengyin's words. Someone muttered, "This Qu family has already brought disaster to three countries. I wonder what's happening to the Western Zhou Kingdom..."

After that, Patriarch Yun, who had been listening to everyone's conversation in silence, spoke up, "They can't enter the Western Zhou Kingdom."

Yu Menghua cast her gaze on Ancestor Yun in surprise. Even Feng Chengyin, who was usually calm and composed, raised his eyebrows in surprise. Dong Linyue and the others were even more confused.

"What does Patriarch Yun mean by this? Is there something special about the Western Zhou Kingdom?" Feng Chengyin was the first to ask the question in everyone's mind.

Patriarch Yun nodded slightly and said, "Not only can they not enter, but the entire Hidden Clan cannot enter the Western Zhou Kingdom. Ever since our ancestors came into the world and found the incomplete formation hundreds of years ago, no one from the Hidden Clan can enter the Western Zhou Kingdom anymore."

Yu Menghua and Feng Chengyin looked at each other subconsciously. Dong Linyue might not know about the incomplete formation that Patriarch Yun mentioned, but they knew it.

Could it be that the Western Zhou Dynasty really has some secrets?

Yu Menghua recalled the things about the Western Zhou Kingdom in his past life and after his rebirth, and found that the Western Zhou Kingdom seemed to have the lowest presence among the four countries.

But the Western Zhou Kingdom was clearly one of the four most famous kingdoms, so why did it have such a low sense of presence?

And the magical fragrant spirit tree that my grandfather mentioned...

"Does Elder Yun know about the Fragrant Spirit Tree?" It has always been Yu Menghua's style to ask without thinking.

Patriarch Yun was surprised and asked, "Fragrant Spirit Tree? Are there still Fragrant Spirit Trees now?"

Yu Menghua nodded and replied: "Well, what's so special about this fragrant spirit tree of Patriarch Yun?"

"If you want to say it's special... there are records about the Fragrant Spirit Tree in ancient books, but it wasn't considered a special thing in ancient times. The Fragrant Spirit Tree has some effect of calming and settling the soul, but since the Hidden Clan was 'abandoned', the Fragrant Spirit Tree that was once seen everywhere has also disappeared."

It was quite fitting that Elder Yun said that the Hidden Clan was abandoned. Otherwise, why would such a large world where one could cultivate to become an immortal suddenly disappear, but why did they leave the Hidden Clan behind...

Feng Chengyin said solemnly: "But there was a fragrant spirit tree in the Western Zhou Dynasty."

"Hmm?" Elder Yun was even more surprised, but quickly denied it: "It's impossible. If there is a fragrant spirit tree in the land of the Hidden Clan, it is possible. Although the fragrant spirit tree is only the lowest level spirit tree, it also needs the mysterious spirit energy to keep it alive."

"Our ancestors once went to the Western Zhou Dynasty. If the Western Zhou Dynasty had a mysterious spiritual aura, it is impossible that they did not leave behind any words." Ancestor Yun's tone was particularly firm.
