Xi Honglei thought about Huangfu Qiong's attitude towards her back then, thinking about every scene and every detail at that time, including the scene where Lin Wanru and Hua'er died tragically to protect themselves.
Xi Honglei took a deep breath, opened her eyes, and smiled reluctantly at Chen'er, who was staring at her curiously.
There is no doubt that Lin Yi is Shu Rumei's man. And if what Shen Binfeng said is true, then if it is absolutely necessary, will Lin Yi... kill Ran Yunpo for Shu Rumei? ?
Shu Rumei is so cruel and ambitious. Mu Yunmeng once said that Shu Rumei would even take the life of her biological father for the sake of status, so what else does she care about? Her son's life? She can't Kill Ran Yunpo, and then find someone who listens to her as the emperor, and let her rule the world?
And Ran Yunpo... seemed to be the most pitiable person from beginning to end.
Shen Binfeng said that back before Mu Ziyi, Mu Yunmeng's mother-in-law, Shu Rumei had lost two children by scheming with other concubines to compete for status. When both children were unlucky After the death, it was not easy for Shu Rumei to keep the child in her belly. Not only did she have to guard against others' plots, but she also had to pay attention to her own physical condition.
Mu Ziyi entered the palace and won the favor of Ran Fenghe. In addition, Mu Ziyi was the princess of the Zizi Kingdom, so she quickly became the queen. Shu Rumei, who had been working hard to become the queen, jumped at the chance. Empty.
Not long after Mu Ziyi was canonized, she became pregnant with Mu Yunmeng. But at that time, Shu Rumei lost her baby because of the ridicule and calculations of the concubines she had oppressed. This pair of Shu Rumei For Rumei, it is undoubtedly a double blow.
Ran Fenghe stayed at Mu Ziyi's place day after day, giving Shu Rumei no chance to get pregnant again. So in desperation, Shu Rumei had to use all kinds of means to finally lure Ran Fenghe to her place. But she found that Ran Fenghe was not pregnant at all. I had no intention of touching her.
Desperate, Shu Rumei finally used medicine to confuse Ran Fenghe's mind. After waking up the next day, she pretended to have had a relationship with Ran Fenghe and sent Ran Fenghe away with a charming smile. But secretly, she found someone who hadn't been with her yet. After entering the palace, her confidant Lin Yi came.
Xi Honglei was extremely shocked by the fact that Ran Yunpo was not Ran Fenghe's son, but Lin Yi. Thinking about Ran Yunpo's life since childhood, what kind of reaction would he have if he discovered his identity? And Shu Ru Mei Mei's boldness and cruelty also frightened Xi Honglei. What else can't such a cruel and cruel woman do?
Mu Ziyi's death was entirely caused by Shu Rumei. No wonder Mu Yunmeng hates Shu Rumei so much now. Then... what about Ran Fenghe? Does Ran Fenghe's death have anything to do with this incident?
Xi Honglei knew that Ran Fenghe had been reluctant to make Ran Yunpo the crown prince and pass the throne to Ran Yunpo, so she forced Shu Rumei to attack him. So why did Ran Fenghe refuse to support Ran Yunpo who seemed to be the best at that time? Ran Yunpo, who has the most followers, was made the crown prince? Instead, he went to trouble Mu Yunmeng every now and then?
Could it be that Ran Fenghe already knew that Ran Yunpo was not his child, but was afraid of what Shu Rumei would do to him, so he kept silent?
With all the doubts, Xi Honglei couldn't find anyone who could give her an accurate answer. Ran Fenghe was dead. No matter what right or wrong he had done, he was dead. His country was in ruins.
If it fell into the hands of others, if Ran Feng Hequan knew about it, he might not have the shame to meet the ancestors of the Ran family again, right?
Mu Yunmeng once said that he could not bear the surname Ran. But now it seems that the person who can bear the surname Ran the most is not Ran. What an irony, what a ridiculous joke?!
"Mother? Mother, what are you thinking about?" Chen'er saw Xihonglei lowering her head in silence and thinking, so he tugged on her clothes. "Tell Chen'er, Chen'er also needs to know."
Xi Honglei returned to reality from deep thought and looked at Chen'er with burning eyes. Xi Honglei hugged him on her lap and tapped Chen'er's little face with her index finger. Xi Honglei whispered: "Mom is just thinking.
, your father has suffered so many grievances and suffered so much, you have to get something back for him. Shu Rumei has bullied others to this extent, we can't let her bully her forever, Chen
Is that right?"
"Yes." Chen'er nodded in understanding. Although he didn't fully understand what Xi Honglei was saying, he still responded without thinking: "Chen'er helped my mother to bully her back."
Xi Honglei smiled with satisfaction, and after memorizing the contents of Shen Binfeng's letter, he burned the letter.
Shen Binfeng took the risk to let her know these things, and she couldn't leave any clues that would put him in danger. But then again, what is Shen Binfeng's identity? Is he really just an ordinary servant in the palace? So many things
How did he know, and why did he choose to tell himself at this time? He also deliberately told Lin Yiyong's secret. Did Mu Yunmeng say something to him?
Shen Binfeng left Jialingyuan and walked slowly on the way back to the academy. He looked up at the sky and thought about his years in the palace. Shen Binfeng suddenly smiled with relief. After living for so long, all the masters he served back then followed him.
One of them has passed away, and now even if he dies, what's the point of regretting it.

The smokeless war between Xuanxuan Kingdom and Zizi Kingdom made Xixi Kingdom also feel some pressure. Fu Yufeng put down the folding paper in his hand, looked up at Ouyang Yu, who had just entered the room, and asked: "What's the matter?
Are you so anxious to find me?"
"Why withdraw the troops?" Ouyang Yu stared into Fu Yufeng's eyes and asked in confusion: "Are you going to help Xuanxuan Kingdom?"
"How is that possible?" Fu Yufeng chuckled and shook his head, "What message did Mu Yunmeng send to you?"
"No, but I'm afraid he will spread the word." Ouyang Yu walked to Fu Yufeng's side and sat down. "Many people are secretly discussing our troop withdrawal. These people can all think of it. How could Mu Yunmeng not think of the troop withdrawal?
, I want to know the reason, can you tell me?"
"Are you afraid of Mu Yunmeng?" Fu Yufeng asked, squinting at Ouyang Yu, and then, before Ouyang Yu could answer, he continued: "I know, although Mu Yunmeng has been working under us all these years,
, but both you and I have concerns about him. I decided to withdraw my troops this time after careful consideration. I don’t want to put pressure on him, nor do I want to help Xuanxuan Kingdom.
You know, I don’t like those people from Xuanxuan Kingdom at all.”
"Why is that?" Ouyang Yu frowned and was a little confused when he heard what Fu Yufeng said.
"There will definitely be a war between Xuanxuan Kingdom and Zizi Kingdom. I just think it's not time for us to send troops yet. You also know about Qiong'er. You must give Mu Yunmeng an explanation for this matter. Otherwise,
When he comes back, he will definitely settle accounts with us. Even if the agreement between us and him has been reached, I don't want to provoke him. In the past few years, he has been king in Beijing and has done almost everything he should do. Besides, I
I feel that after he gets rid of Ran Yunpo and others this time, Xuanxuan Kingdom may fall into his hands. Can you possibly imagine the stakes involved?"
Ouyang Yu listened carefully to Fu Yufeng's words. Finally, he raised his brows, stood up suddenly, met Fu Yufeng's eyes, and asked: "Brother Emperor, you don't...do you want..."
"That's what I think." Fu Yufeng nodded without hesitation and said firmly: "I know you can't let go of Qiong'er, and so do I. But I don't want anything to happen to Xixi Country because of Qiong'er alone.
A huge loss. Mu Yunmeng holds a grudge. No one can predict what the Xuanxuan Kingdom and Zizi Kingdom will develop into once they are in his hands. My father handed over the Xixi Kingdom to me, and I have to pay
This responsibility, so I don’t want you to stop me regarding Qiong’er.”
Fu Yufeng's decision was both beyond Ouyang Yu's expectations and within Ouyang Yu's expectations. Ouyang Yu looked at Fu Yufeng silently and gradually guessed what Fu Yufeng meant.
The purpose of withdrawing troops was to dispatch troops. I am afraid that Fu Yufeng wanted to let Huangfu Qiong, a general, lead troops to help Mu Yunmeng at the last critical moment. As for whether Huangfu Qiong could come back, Ouyang Yu had no idea.
Because what happened to Xi Honglei that year, Huangfu Qiong was also responsible. Although she was not involved, many things came out of her mouth. Once Mu Yunmeng knows about this matter, he will definitely pursue it to the end.
Although Fu Yufeng's move was a bit unfair and cruel to Huangfu Qiong, it was nothing compared to the interests of the entire Xixi Kingdom. Fu Yufeng probably made this decision after thinking for a long time, saying
After all, Qiong'er is still too simple-minded. If she had not been involved in this muddy water back then, she would not have gotten angry.
"Hey." Ouyang Yu sighed heavily and shook his head helplessly. "I'm leaving. You can continue reading the book."
"Bring Qiong'er into the palace when you have time. I also want to see her more." Fu Yufeng nodded and said in a low voice. After Ouyang Yu left, Fu Yufeng frowned and leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes.
eyes.
How could he be willing to make such a decision? To put it bluntly, the king of a country is a slave of the country. For the sake of the people of the world, in order to avoid war and chaos, he can only risk the life of his sister and himself.
The life of the grown-up Huangfu Qiong.
Fu Yufeng closed his eyes and rested for a while, then lowered his head again to review the memorial. He suppressed all his dissatisfaction in his heart. He understood that this was his life and he had to accept it.
