King's Landing [Rebirth]

In Yuelai Inn, the Eldest Princess and Mu Xi went up to the private room on the second floor under the leadership of Xiaoer. Mu Cheng and Mr. Chen were here to reminisce about the old days. There was a guard standing at the door. He didn't open his mouth outside.The eldest princess waved her hand to signal Xiao Er to step back, and asked, "Who is your general in there with?"

Mu Xi only knew that Mu Cheng came to Hanshan Temple early this morning, but he didn't know why he came.

The Eldest Princess usually doesn't ask about these things, but today she has something important to discuss with Mu Cheng, so she naturally needs to know who Mu Cheng is meeting.

The guard replied: "It's the lord of Sichuan City, Chen Rushen."

The Eldest Princess' eyes flickered slightly, it was a coincidence that she happened to be meeting Chen Rushen as well.She ordered the guards to stand guard at the door and not allow anyone to approach, and brought Mu Xi into the house by herself.

The two people in the room were a little surprised when they saw her coming. The Eldest Princess stepped forward and saluted Chen Rushen as a junior, and the other party was so surprised that he quickly stood up and returned the salute, saying: "Your Highness, why bother, this old minister can't bear your bow."

The eldest princess said: "Old Chen is polite, this is what our Mu family owes your Chen family. Qiuniang is not here, so I should do my best for her. You are an elder, so you deserve this gift."

"Hey, why bother you husband and wife, Qiuniang has an idea. Since they have made a choice, they just hope to help you. If she knows that you have been guilty of this matter, she will feel guilty." I won't be happy." Chen Rushen let out a long sigh, although the Mu family was far away in Mobei and rarely came back, but the Chen family was really benevolent to them and never owed anything.

The Eldest Princess has a strange complexion, Chen Rushen is getting older, and his body is not as strong as before, his temples are stained with silver frost, and his face is covered with wrinkles.Fast-forward 18 years, time flies by, and he is no longer the general who can stand in front of the old and young of the Chen family and carry all the officials.All the military power of the Chen family was returned to the emperor, and they retreated to Sichuan City, faintly planning to quit their official duties.

The Eldest Princess knew that this was all Chen Rushen's decision. The Chen family had few ambitious sons in this generation, and everyone was more inclined to go into business. Chen Rushen also didn't want them to continue mixing in the muddy waters of the imperial city.Today's Qiu Tongguo is no longer what it used to be, and continuing to be an official may not be a good thing.

The Chen family followed Chen Rushen's lead, and no one disagreed with his decision.The Eldest Princess also knew that this matter could not be persuaded. If it had been left to yesterday, she would definitely support Chen Rushen's decision, but after meeting Mei Zhenghan today, she had other plans in her heart.Chen Rushen sent a white-haired man to a black-haired man, how could this grievance be forgotten like this.

The Eldest Princess made a decision in her heart, bowed to Chen Rushen again, and said guiltily: "Old Chen, I'm sorry, Qiuniang... is no longer here."

Chen Rushen, who was about to reach out to help the eldest princess, was shocked, his outstretched hand froze in mid-air, trembling|shatteringly.He looked at the eldest princess in disbelief, and his breath became short of breath.Mu Cheng was also shocked, but fortunately he was calm enough. Seeing that something was wrong with Chen Rushen, he immediately stepped forward to help him sit down, and comforted him.

The eldest princess was very worried, and persuaded: "Old Chen, you have to take care of your health, Qiuniang's daughter still counts on you to help take care of her."

Chen Rushen took a sip of tea, and then recovered, his cloudy eyes were clouded with mist, he looked at the eldest princess, and said, "Your Highness, where did you get this news?"

Luo Qiu has been away for 18 years and there has been no news. Chen Rushen has never thought that she may be dead, but as long as he does not see the bones for a day, he still has hope in his heart, hoping that she will live in a remote place that is unknown. living a rich life.

Today, the Eldest Princess suddenly brought this sad news. Chen Rushen was heartbroken. He had three sons, and Luo Qiu was the only daughter. Her personality was most like when he was young. Although she was not close to him, it was his blood after all. Get his love.

The eldest princess came to Mu Cheng to talk about Mei Zhenghan. When Chen Rushen asked her, she didn't hide anything, and said truthfully: "I met Zheng Han in Wangcheng, and it was the child of me and Mu Cheng. Qiu Niang I got the news from him. I haven’t met Qiuniang’s child. I heard from Zhenghan that she came to Hanshan Temple early in the morning. The child is a girl who inherited her father’s medical skills. Speaking of which, you are no strangers. , the person who helped the new city lord, Liang Jian, to calm the plague in Hongye City."

Both Chen Rushen and Mu Cheng had a place in the court, and they had heard about the plague in Hongye City, but they didn't know that the girl who solved the predicament in Hongye City was Qiuniang's child.Not only that, the eldest princess also mentioned Mei Zhenghan, the child who was taken away by Qiuniang and the others.Mu Cheng and Chen Rushen looked at each other, and both could see the shock in their eyes.

Mu Xi on the side was also taken aback. She knew that she had a younger brother, but she didn't expect that the other was Mei Zhenghan. No wonder the Eldest Princess had such a weird attitude.

Mu Cheng was the first to calm down. He recalled the words of the Eldest Princess carefully, and said seriously: "Liang Jian said that the predicament in Hongye City was solved with the help of his younger siblings. Could it be that he was referring to the struggle?" Han brothers and sisters? Why did they come together with Liang Jian? After Qiuniang passed away, Jiang Ren also..."

Mu Cheng's words were not finished yet, but everyone present understood what he meant.

The eldest princess nodded and said: "Jiang Ren's matter is more complicated. It is because of his death that Zhenghan and the others met Liang Jian and went to Hongye City with him. In addition, Qiuniang and Jiang Ren both Instead of using her original name, Qiuniang changed her name to Chen Qiu, and he changed his name to Jiang Yi. The child was named Jiang Shengxue, and Zheng Han took Mei as his surname. They took Zheng Han as their disciple and did not call them parents. .”

The eldest princess said and looked at Chen Rushen. The relationship between Luo Qiu and the Chen family is actually a little different. Although she is Chen Rushen's biological daughter, she follows her mother's surname.Unexpectedly, she and Jiang Ren would take the Chen family's surname after hiding their identities.Chen Rushen grieved unceasingly when he heard the words, and burst into tears.

The Eldest Princess also felt very uncomfortable, if it wasn't for the Mu family, Chen Rushen would not have sent the white-haired man to the black-haired man early.

While Mu Cheng comforted Chen Rushen, he couldn't help being silent in grief.He and Jiang Yi have eight obeisances, and have always regarded him as a brother.When the incident happened suddenly, Jiang Yi and Luo Qiu made prompt decisions to save them from a disaster.Now hearing the sad news of the two, even he shed tears on the spot, let alone Chen Rushen.

"Brother Jiang said he was going to Hongye City when he left. He was very interested in the country of Fujian, which is good at secret voodoo techniques, and took root in the countryside on the border. Before he left, he said that we would meet again one day, but he didn't. Thinking of this difference is the separation of yin and yang, we owe them a lot as a husband and wife."

Mu Cheng's eyes were red, the scene of farewell was vivid in his memory, as if it was yesterday.But in fact, the old man has passed away, leaving only a lingering sound.

Mu Xi is a junior, so he is not so clear about what he said to his parents, but he can't bear the sad atmosphere in the room, and he feels uncomfortable.She still remembers the first time she saw Mei Zhenghan on the street, the handsome and hearty young man with a warm smile, his sword eyebrows and starry eyes are deep and charming, his attitude is neither humble nor overbearing, and there is a faint shadow of Mu Cheng on his body.

That is her own brother, who cannot recognize each other when they meet, even if there are thousands of words in their hearts, there is no way to tell him.

"Mother, what happened back then that forced you to send my brother away and make up lies about his death as an infant? After so many years, my brother appeared in front of you again, are you still unwilling to tell me the truth?"

Mu Xi supported the mourning eldest princess, and couldn't help asking out the doubts in his heart. 18 years ago, she was still young, her memory was so fuzzy that she couldn't remember what happened at all.

The three of them looked sideways at Mu Xi, the eldest princess wiped away her tears and remained silent, Mu Cheng sighed and said, "It's okay to tell you today, it's not good news for the two of them to appear in the royal city, you know the whole story It’s also easy to take care of them.”

The disaster 18 years ago started with Qing Sijian of the imperial court. During the reign of the Supreme Emperor, he attached great importance to the theory of astrology. Therefore, Qing Sijian was valued by the imperial court and was very prosperous for a while.In his later years, the Supreme Emperor was obsessed with the way of immortality, suspicious and seriously ill, easy to kill and angry.And at this sensitive moment, Qing Sijian's director, Ye Guantianxiang, calculated a hexagram. This hexagram is a sign of great evil. He threatened that the greedy wolf would enter Mobei and swallow Ziwei. , Fearing that Qiutong will be exhausted.

The Supreme Emperor was furious when he heard the words, and asked him to explain the hexagram in detail. The director claimed that this son came to the world differently from ordinary people, and he was still weak.Coincidentally, when the eldest princess was about to give birth, Mobei was constantly born with visions. The news spread to the palace, and the Supreme Emperor couldn't help thinking about it. He ordered the chief to go to Mobei to find out the truth.

The father-in-law who served the Supreme Emperor watched the Eldest Princess grow up from a little girl to a slim girl until she got married, and was very affectionate to her. After learning that the Supreme Emperor had made this decision, he sent someone to inform the Eldest Princess overnight. Before taking charge, he passed the news to Mobei.

Princess Dachang and Mu Cheng didn't care much about numerology, but no one expected that Mei Zhenghan was born with different pupils and was born different from ordinary people. His fate coincided with the hexagram predicted by the master.The director rushed to Mobei with a secret decree. Jiang Yi and Luo Qiu, who was about to give birth, made a decisive decision and found a baby who was born with deficiencies in the folks to replace Mei Zhenghan. Xue left Mobei.

The baby who replaced Mei Zhenghan to deal with the boss died soon, and the boss couldn't understand it. The eldest princess feared that he would cause trouble again, and made a scene out of the grief of the loss of the son.

Later, the eldest princess and his wife also learned the contents of the secret decree brought by the director, which can be summed up in three words: kill without pardon.

The supreme emperor, the eldest princess's father, and Mei Zhenghan's grandfather, because of a hexagram that he didn't know the truth of, would rather kill by mistake than let it go.He swung his butcher knife at his own grandson, and neatly cut off the last trace of affection between him and the eldest princess.After his death, Princess Dachang didn't come back because of the turmoil in Mobei.When Mobei is stable, and the ministers are begging for criticism, she will only come back and offer a stick of incense to be considered filial piety.

If it hadn't been for the successor emperor and the eldest princess who had a deep relationship, after succeeding to the throne, he found excuses to kill the boss and neglected Qing Sijian, and the eldest princess had put down the burden of Mobei to find her son.

The Supreme Emperor's fault is his own responsibility, and he should not blame the world.

Princess Dachang understood this truth, and so did the first emperor, so he tried his best to make up for Princess Dachang.For his sake, Princess Dachang and Mu Cheng stayed close to Mobei.
