Chapter 1089: Does koi bring blessing or disaster (41)
After Chen Wenlu was admitted as a scholar, he met Su Yushang, the prefect's daughter. He was able to borrow the help of the prefect for many things. In addition, he met Lu Linxuan, and his connections were wider. He was very proud for a while.
When he went to the capital and accidentally saw Liao Qinghan's appearance, the clouds cleared and the fog cleared, because Liao Qinghan and Song Yuerou looked very similar.
Liao Qinghan was the eldest son of General Liao Shiwu. He had a sister, Liao Fanling, who was born in the same year as Song Yuerou.
The ancestors of the Liao family were born with supernatural powers, and later joined the army and were awarded the title of general due to their military exploits. Many descendants of the Liao family, both male and female, have inherited the great strength of their ancestors.
However, most of the Liao family members who have inherited great strength are just stronger than usual, and few can rival their ancestors.
Liao Qinghan's grandfather and father were both born with great strength. Although they were not as powerful as their ancestors, they were still as strong as an ox.
The title of General is not a hereditary title. If future generations want the title of General to survive, they must rely on meritorious service to gain the title.
Liao Qinghan's grandfather and father both made military exploits and were successively named generals.
Song Yuerou looks a lot like Liao Qinghan, and she is gifted with supernatural powers. It is hard not to think of her as a member of the Liao family.
But the Liao family did not lose any of their daughters.
If Song Yuerou is a member of the Liao family, it can only be that she was exchanged.
The only daughter of the Liao family who is of the same age as Song Yuerou is Liao Fanling.
Liao Fanling did not inherit the great strength of the Liao family, because she did not like martial arts since she was a child, and her body was delicate.
Chen Wenlu found someone to conduct a secret investigation and asked Chen Caiyu to use his abilities to help him.
Chen Wenlu was asked to investigate and found out something, and it was confirmed that Song Yuerou and Liao Fanling had their identities changed on purpose.
These are what Chen Wenlu wanted Chen Daya to pretend to be Song Yuerou and told her personally.
Song Yuerou was dead, or died in the Chen family. If the Liao family found out, they would only vent their anger on the Chen family. Chen Wenlu knew this well and would not directly come to the Liao family to tell the Liao family about Song Yuerou.
Chen Wenlu came up with a brilliant idea and asked Chen Daya, who was about the same age, to pretend to be Song Yuerou and go to the Liao family to recognize her relatives.
Weishan Village was killed and plundered by bandits. Many people were killed, injured, and arrested. Half of the houses in the village were burned down, and few of the houses that were not burned were intact. We were worried that the bandits would come back again.
Later, the remaining people left one after another, such as the Chen family, who all moved to the county town.
When the time comes, the Liao family will go to Weishan Village to investigate, but no one will be found.
Very few people in Gujiacun have seen Song Yuerou with their own eyes. After several years, no one can tell what Song Yuerou looks like, only that she has a good appearance.
Chen Daya is not as tall as Song Yuerou, but she is not bad either.
Moreover, the Chen family did not notify Gujiacun about Song Yuerou's death.
With Chen Caiyu's ability, the Liao family couldn't find anything.
The person who needs to be taken into consideration is He Zhenniang.
Chen Wenlu asked Chen Caiyu to use his power on He Zhenniang. A few days later, when He Zhenniang went out in a carriage, the horse was frightened and overturned the carriage. He Zhenniang fell to her death.
After the trouble was solved, Chen Wenlu started to ask Chen Daya to recognize her relatives.
As expected, the jade lock belonged to the Liao family, and with the evidence Chen Wenlu investigated, the Liao family kidnapped Song Sheng's sister.
Song Sheng's sister couldn't resist and admitted that she had exchanged the daughter of the Liao family.
In fact, there is a well-known background as to how Song Yuerou could be exchanged with Liao Fanling, which was the rebellion of King Huai that year.
King Huai was the third son of the late emperor.
The late emperor had many children, and among those who survived to adulthood, there were twelve princes and eight princesses. According to the practice of the Chu Dynasty, when the prince came of age, he would be granted the title of king and a fiefdom would be designated. After the prince's wedding, he would live in the fiefdom.
When there are more princes, the battle for the throne becomes more intense.
The late emperor was a long-lived emperor who had been on the throne for forty years. He had never established a prince. All the princes were eyeing the throne and resorted to more or less means to compete for the throne.
King Huai was the most ambitious. He trained the army in private and secretly established his own power. He originally wanted to launch a palace coup in the capital, which was the most direct way and took the least time.
But before the palace coup planned by King Huai was carried out, the news came out. The late emperor was furious, purged the manpower deployed by King Huai in the capital, and then sent people to arrest King Huai.
King Huai did not stop doing anything, and after learning that the news was leaked, he launched a rebellion.
He colluded with the Dirong tribe and helped the Dirong tribe open the gates of the border city. The border was in chaos, and Dachu fell into internal and external troubles.
The court sent King Su to lead a large army to reinforce the border.
General Deng was stationed at the border town, and Liao Shiwu was his subordinate, but in fact Liao Shiwu was a member of King Su.
When the border town was lost and General Deng died in battle, Liao Shiwu was ordered to temporarily act as general.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Dirong tribe involved most of Chu's military strength, King Huai launched a mutiny.
King Huai suspected that King Su had reported him, and he hated King Su deeply. King Su's fiefdom bore the brunt.
The soldiers of Prince Su's Mansion protected Prince Su's family members and fled.
During the chaos in the border town, Liao Shiwu sent his family members to King Su's fiefdom. Unexpectedly, King Huai secretly trained so many soldiers and horses and launched an attack on King Su's fiefdom first.
The Liao family members did not wait until Prince Su's Mansion, but met the family members of Prince Su's Mansion on the road. Knowing that they could not get to Prince Su's Mansion, the two families fled together.
King Huai's pursuers refused to give up, and the families of King Su and the Liao family were scattered, and some of them fled to Luzhou.
The masters in the group include King Su's youngest son and Shen Rushuang.
Among the servants was Song Sheng's sister Song Xiang.
When Song Xiang was ten years old, she was sold to the Shen Mansion by the Song family through Ren Yazi. She became the maid of Shen Rushuang, Miss Shen's family, and was renamed Xiangyun.
Shen Rushuang married Liao Shiwu, and Xiangyun was brought into the Liao family as Shen Rushuang's personal maid.
A few years later, Shen Rushuang married Xiangyun to Liao He, Liao Shiwu's personal servant.
Liao He is a son of the Liao family. He has followed Liao Shiwu since he was a child and is deeply trusted by Liao Shiwu. Because of this, Xiangyun also has the trust of Shen Rushuang and Liao Shiwu.
This time Xiangyun followed Shen Rushuang to Prince Su's Mansion.
Shen Rushuang was seven months pregnant when she was sent to Prince Su's Mansion. When she was transferred to Luzhou, Shen Rushuang had a fetal movement, which started early and gave birth to a daughter, Song Yuerou.
King Huai's rebellion was carried out under the banner of the Qing emperor. Some people wanted to fish in troubled waters, so they launched large and small military rebellions. The whole Chu was unstable everywhere. Luzhou was relatively better, but there were also rebellions from time to time.
After Shen Rushuang gave birth, she encountered rioters and the group was dispersed. Xiangyun ran with her newborn baby and her mother-in-law, who was holding Prince Su's youngest son, together.
Xiangyun was already ten years old when she was sold. After going to the Shen family, she continued to have contact with the Song family. She suggested that she temporarily stay at her brother's house.
A few weaklings listened to Xiangyun's suggestion and went to An County and stayed in Song Sheng's house.
In fact, Xiangyun was also pregnant. She was five months old at the time, but she did not announce it. In addition, it was not obvious that she was pregnant, she was wearing thick clothes, and the war was chaotic. No one thought about this.
