[029] Doubtful

"Second brother, my brother, it seems that he is really uneasy!"

Bang!

With Huangfu Taixin's roar, a book that had almost half burned was smashed in front of Ye Qingxuan.

"This is……"

Ye Qingxuan hurriedly picked it up and took a look. The four big words "The Prince's Minute" were written on the book cover that were still preserved.

I opened the book directly and found that the detailed information of more than a dozen princes in the blood of the late emperor.

However, due to the fire, less than one-third of the book remains, and the rest has been completely carbonized.

After looking at the raging fire outside like a torch, Ye Qingxuan didn't understand how this book was rescued by chance.

The old man on the side sighed and explained: "Mr. Shuai had suspected that Master Qi had a problem and ordered Lao Nu to find this information, but Lao Nu happened to be assigned by His Majesty, so he entrusted Eunuch Xia to go... But he never expected..."

Huangfu Taixin interrupted angrily, "But unexpectedly, someone came to the Zangzong Tower first and was also looking for this thing. Xia Ming met the visitor and was defeated. He was stabbed by a knife. The whereabouts of the visitor were exposed and he had no time to grab the book, so he had to knock over the oil lamp and burn Xia Ming's body and the entire Zangzong Tower. Xia Ming used his body to protect the book. When the reinforcements arrived, the person was no longer able to do it. The book was pressed under him, and there were only so many left. It would burn it later..."

"Then this fire..."

Huangfu Taixin smiled and said, "Since the other party wants to burn it, I will satisfy his wish. He thought this book was hiding with Xia Ming in the sea of ​​fire, but I was going to give him a fatal blow when he was most proud."

At the critical moment, Huangfu Taixin was indeed a little cruel.

There is no doubt that when reinforcements found Xia Ming at the first time, the fire could definitely be put out, but if they really wanted to put out the fire, the other party would definitely think that the emperor might get this book, so they simply added fuel to the fire and looked like they could not rescue. A fire burned the entire sect building, so the opponent would psychologically think that the action was successful and relaxed his vigilance.

"Since we were just about to check whom, the other party took action. It seems that our suspicion was correct." Ye Qingxuan said lightly, and at the same time, he looked through the booklet and read it carefully.

Especially for the article of the seventh prince "King Xingyuan" Huangfu Tairen, according to the only remaining written records, Huangfu Tairen's mother clan was the Meng family of Jiangning Prefecture, Yangzhou. The news that Empress Meng was pregnant with a dragon seed was spread to the clan. On the seventh day of Daqing, the clan leader was attacked by Yingzhou warriors on the last day. More than 500 people in the clan were killed and none of them survived.

The detailed birth date and horoscope of King Xingyuan is no longer verified, but the rough time can be calculated.

This is not the point. The point is that the Meng family was killed before the imperial concubine became pregnant and was about to go to Beijing to receive rewards and take care of her daughter. Isn’t that a coincidence?

Ye Qingxuan thought for a while and asked, "Did the cause of the crime be found out?"

"It is said that it was caused by the Japanese pirates' robbery."

Ye Qingxuan frowned and said, "Although Jiangning Mansion is in the lower reaches of the river, it is still far from the coast. Even if Japanese pirates invade and rob, they should still attack Suzhou Prefecture and Yangzhou Prefecture. Why go deep into the river to rob Jiangning Mansion? And Jiangning Mansion... isn't that the sphere of influence of Fengyun Alliance? The people of Yingzhou dare to be so bold?"

Huangfu Taixin stroked his chin and replied after thinking about it: "It seems that the Japanese pirates who invaded that year were finally caught by Zhao Fengchan in the Fengyun League."

Zhao Fengchan?

Something interesting.

The old man hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Sir, what's wrong with me? Do you suspect that Zhao Fengchan has something to do with this matter?"

"It's not just that." Ye Qingxuan said lightly: "I suspect that there are problems from Zhao Fengchan, to those Japanese pirates, and to the identity of Empress Meng."

After saying that, Yizhan looked at the book in his hand, pointing at a line of words to the two of them.

"The emperor met the Meng daughter of Suzhou. He traveled for more than a month and returned to Luodu. He gave a gift... and was finally pregnant and promoted to a noble concubine."

Ye Qingxuan said calmly: "The last emperor met the daughter of Meng in Suzhou and then took her back to Luodu. Although there was a betrothal gift from the Meng clan to testify, the Meng family did not meet this daughter from the beginning to the end. The infatuated woman loved Your Majesty and followed her thousands of miles away. Although it was a very good love story, it was not reasonable. A daughter ran away with another man like this. Even if the man was the emperor, the parents of the family might be worried. Meng asked to go to Beijing to see her daughter several times, but she was shirked away by her health. It was not until the imperial concubine got pregnant with Longzi that His Majesty personally issued an order to enter the Luodu. But at this time, the whole family of Meng was slaughtered... This is confusing."

The emperor and her father-in-law were immediately in deep thought.

Ye Qingxuan frowned and said, "Did no one doubt the identity of Meng back then? It is entirely possible that someone killed the genuine Meng, disguised himself as a Meng girl and approached His Majesty."

The old man was surprised and said, "The background of the Meng girl back then was absolutely foolproof. After all, the imperial attendant An Zhongxin would personally investigate and would not make any mistakes in this matter."

Ye Qingxuan let out a long sigh and said, "I'm afraid that there are people with my confidants to mislead... After all, it's easy to pretend to be a person's appearance. I'm afraid that only parents who have been by my side for many years can see some subtle mistakes."

Huangfu Taixin slapped the table and concluded: "So from the beginning to the end, Concubine Meng never met her parents after entering the palace."

Ye Qingxuan's eyes lit up suddenly and he asked anxiously: "Who is there any accompanying him except the Imperial Superintendent?"

The old man thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty has only been to Jiangnan for the first time in his life. Although I have not accompanied me, I have heard of it a little. It seems that there is Yu Pohai from Longjiang, Qu Longxing has also revealed both sides, and there are Zhao Fengchan and Peng Daosheng from Fengyun League... Both are local celebrities... Huh? It's Zhao Fengchan again..."

Huangfu Taixin's body shook violently, and his eyes shone brightly.

From beginning to end, Zhao Fengchan appeared several times in this incident, which made people wary of it.

Huangfu Taixin patted his head and recalled: "Although I was still young back then, I was so angry that the late emperor did not take me to Jiangnan for a long time, so I had some impression of what happened at that time. It seemed that Zhao Fengchan, the one who escorted Meng's daughter to Luodu, was the one who escorted Zhao Fengchan. By the way, there was also Peng Daosheng..."

Ye Qingxuan said in surprise: "Aren't their brothers incompatible with water and fire?"

"Hmph, it was better to say it was as if it was a tangle before, but I don't know why later... Huh? It seems that it was also after that time that the relationship between Peng Daosheng and Zhao Fengchan plummeted until it was inconsistent."

This is so interesting.

Did Peng Daosheng discover something that caused a rift in the relationship between the two?
