Yun Shang nodded, feeling a little sad in his heart. Xue Yan probably never imagined that he would be killed by the apprentice he had raised for many years.
"But why did Zheng Qiming kill Miracle Doctor Xueyan? No matter how powerful Miracle Doctor Xueyan is, he is just a doctor. A doctor cannot pose a threat or hindrance to Xia Houjing, so why must he attack him?" Yun Yun
No matter what, Chang could not figure out what Xia Houjing's intention was in killing Xue Yan.
Luo Qingyan fell silent when she heard Yun Shang ask this question. When Yun Shang saw this, a light suddenly flashed in her mind. She paused for a moment before lowering her head and saying softly: "Miracle Doctor Xueyan has helped me a lot.
, but it was me who harmed Miracle Doctor Xueyan."
Luo Qingyan was worried that Yun Shang was thinking wildly again, so he quickly put his arms around Yun Shang's shoulders and said, "We can only blame Zheng Qiming for being greedy. Now what we can do for Xue Yan is to clean up his family. If Zheng Qiming and Chen Miaosi
He used the name of Xueyan's apprentice and grandson to cheat and did things he shouldn't have done, but he really ruined Xueyan's reputation."
Yun Shang nodded repeatedly and responded: "I will definitely avenge this revenge for Xue Yan."
Luo Qingyan saw that Yun Shang's energy finally improved a lot, and he breathed a sigh of relief and quickly responded.
Just as they were talking, Qian Zui walked in from the outside, looked at the two of them carefully, and then said softly: "Madam, there is new news coming back from Yangliu Town."
Yun Shang raised her eyes and looked at Luo Qingyan, but she met Luo Qingyan's gaze. Yun Shang smiled and then whispered: "Go ahead."
Qian Zui responded, lowered his head and reported: "The secret guard found out that not two months after the teacher Liu Jin moved to Yangliu Town, another couple moved to Yangliu Town. Because that couple
They both had outstanding looks, and they generously bought the best house in the town, so many people were very impressed by the couple. A mother-in-law in the town once worked as a nurse in that couple's house.
She is responsible for purchasing ingredients. She said that she had seen the young master from Liu Jin's house in the couple's house. She also said that the young master called the couple father and mother."
Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan were both startled, and couldn't help but feel a little excited.
"That woman among them, does she have a tear mole on her face?" Yun Shang asked quickly.
Qian Zui was stunned for a moment, and then responded softly: "The secret guard never asked in such detail. He only asked that the man called his wife Xi'er. And the man seemed to be in poor health. He had been taking medicine for many years. The couple
The two of them are very low-key and rarely go out. The man likes to carve wood, and the things he carves are lifelike."
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes, Xi'er, Cao Wenxi. It's probably her.
But who was that man? Liu Yinfeng was already quite old at that time. Calculating the years, it was the time when Cao Wenxi gave birth to Liu Yinfeng. Yun Shang had already guessed before that Liu Yinfeng was Cao Wen.
Xitong was born to Xia Chun, the prince at that time and Xia Huanyu's brother.
Liu Yinfeng called the man daddy. Could it be that that man was Xia Chun?
But it shouldn't be. When Liu Yinfeng followed Liu Jin to Yangliu Town, Xia Huanyu had already ascended the throne. Didn't Xia Huanyu ascend the throne after killing Xia Chun? Could it be that Xia Chun was not dead at all?
Yun Shang suddenly remembered that the Duke's wife had talked about Xia Huanyu before, saying that he was a man who was extremely nostalgic for old friendships. She thought it was a bit ridiculous at the time. If she was looking for old love and friendship, how could she kill her father and brother?
Now that things have happened, Yun Shang feels that the man in Yangliu Town may really be Xia Chun, and maybe Xia Huanyu did not kill him.
"Where did the couple go after that?" Yun Shang asked quickly.
"The secret guard found out that after Liu Jin left Yangliu Town, the couple had been living in Yangliu Town. About three or four years later, the woman was pregnant again. The woman said that the woman was pregnant.
The couple were very happy and rewarded her with twenty taels of silver. However, the good times did not last long. Before the child was born, the husband's illness worsened and he passed away without surviving the winter. The young lady was heartbroken.
Jue, after her husband was buried, someone took her away, and then she disappeared without knowing where she went." Qian Zui responded.
When Yun Shang heard this, there was a bit of astonishment in her eyes, but she connected many things together.
Cao Wenxi became pregnant three or four years after Concubine Liu entered the palace, which coincided with the time when Xia Houjing was born. The woman said that the man should have died in late autumn and early winter in order to survive the winter, and Xia Houjing was born in the twelfth lunar month.
The birthday is in the middle of winter, so it can be matched. Previously, Yun Shang thought that Xia Houjing was the son of Xia Huanyu and Cao Wenxi.
There is a pregnant woman in Yangliu Town, and it is indeed impossible to be Xia Huanyu's child. Liu Yinfeng and Xia Huanyu are both the children of Cao Wenxi and that man. No wonder Liu Yinfeng called Xia Houjing in the letter to Xia Huanyu
younger brother.
In this way, the identity of the man became the focus. Yun Shang guessed that the man was Xia Chun, but whether it was really as she guessed still needed to be verified.
Yun Shang bit her lip. If Xia Houjing was the child of Cao Wenxi and Xia Chun, then it would be justifiable for him to start the uprising. After all, Xia Huanyu's fortune, on the surface, was gained by killing Xia Chun. Xia Houjing
Then he could rise up under the banner of revenge for his father.
"Send the message and ask someone to ask..." Yun Shang paused, and then said: "Ask the Duke's wife, then ask, Xia Chun likes to carve wood. Ask Xia Chun again
How is your health? What diseases did you suffer from? And also, how did Xia Chun die back then?"
Qianzui quickly agreed and hurriedly retreated.
Yun Shang raised her eyes and looked at Luo Qingyan, only to see Luo Qingyan's eyes were a bit thoughtful. She must have been thinking about Xia Houjing and Liu Yinfeng.
Yun Shang lowered his head and did not disturb.
The reply from the Duke's wife was sent to the palace on the same day: "The Duke's wife said that Xia Chun really likes to carve things and prefers wood, but not just wood, he can also carve jades. Previously, he was scolded by Emperor Wenzong because of this hobby.
Some people said that he was not doing his job properly. However, Xia Chun captured the heart of Cao Wenxi, the most beautiful woman at that time, by carving a wooden picture of a beauty. As for his health, he had never heard of anything bad about it.
No one knew how Chun died. They only knew that Xia Huanyu locked up Xia Chun, and no one saw him again. Everyone knew tacitly that Xia Chun was probably executed by Xia Huanyu. There was once
The old minister questioned Xia Huanyu about this matter, saying that Xia Huanyu had killed his father and his brother, but Xia Huanyu did not refute and had the old minister executed."
When Yun Shang heard this, she almost immediately determined that the man who lived in seclusion in Yangliu Town with Cao Wenxi should be Xia Chun. Xia Huanyu did not kill Xia Chun at all.
"Does Xia Houjing know?" Yun Shang turned her head and looked at Luo Qingyan.
Luo Qingyan shook his head and said softly: "If Xia Houjing knew about it, how could he let go of this opportunity?"
Yun Shang thought for a while and nodded lightly. With Xia Houjing's temperament, if he knew about this, he would not be so calm.
But, how to solve this situation now?
Yun Shang turned her head to look at Luo Qingyan, and suddenly remembered what Ning Qian said. She had been planning for Luo Qingyan since she arrived in Xia Kingdom, but if these matters were left to Luo Qingyan, she would definitely be able to handle them.
She needs to be better. What she needs to focus on is herself. She is like this now. If she devotes her time to clearing obstacles for Luo Qingyan, she is afraid that by the time she looks back, the harem will have already turned upside down.
It's crazy.
She should clean up the harem and make more plans for herself and Bao'er, so that she can always stand side by side with Luo Qingyan.
Yun Shang thought about it and said to Luo Qing: "Xia Houjing will know about this sooner or later, but what he heard may not be such a plot. Your Majesty, please be careful."
Luo Qingyan smiled and took Yun Shang into his arms, nodded and responded with a smile: "It doesn't matter, he's just Xia Houjing."
Yun Shang nodded lightly and said no more.
Although Yun Shang's mood was slightly better than the previous few days, the illness was also extremely harmful to her body. The illness came like a mountain and went away like a thread. Yun Shang could only stay in Weiyang Palace to recuperate.
recuperate.
In a blink of an eye, the Lantern Festival is here.
Early in the morning of the Lantern Festival, the emperor went to the city tower to accept the worship of the people. Luo Qingyan took Yun Shang out of the palace early in the morning. The crowds along the way had already been cleared away. Luo Qingyan looked at the lanterns on both sides of the street and turned around.
He turned around and looked at Yun Shang and said, "Tonight there will be the grandest lantern festival of the year in Jincheng. Do you want to come out for a walk?"
Hearing this, Yun Shang shook her head and said softly: "Last year, I remember that Xia Huanyu secretly took Ning Qian out of the palace to watch the lantern festival, but he was assassinated. Now that you have a different identity and it is a troubled time, it is better to be careful."
Hearing this, Luo Qingyan was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "I have wronged you. Now that you are with me, you have to worry a lot about even watching a lantern festival."
Yun Shang smiled, with a bit of regret in her expression: "Now that I am the most noble woman in the Xia Kingdom, your Majesty still said that you have wronged me. Isn't it that your Majesty is framing my concubine for injustice? Without knowing it, you are still
I thought I was preparing to ascend the throne as emperor."
Luo Qingyan couldn't help but laugh. Seeing that Yun Shang was now thinking about joking, the stone hanging in her heart relaxed a little.
When we arrived at the Bell and Drum Tower in Jincheng, people were already standing below. When they saw Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang appearing on the tower, everyone was very excited. The noise was loud, and then they all knelt down and faced
Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang bowed and said, "May your Majesty be blessed with peace and prosperity, and may the Queen be blessed with a thousand years."
Luo Qingyan raised his hand and said in a loud voice: "Sit down." The voice carried some inner strength and spread from all directions. (To be continued)
