Chapter 222
Chapter 222
Harsh words? From Jin Ziwan's bright red lips, he spat out one word at a time: "Why, Jing Mo can't help you in the palace, can he? So you need to find a new person to be placed in Sheng By Xiyun's side, you still brazenly call me me?"
If he wanted to be vicious, he would really step on people's painful feet with all his might.
Xie Guining's ability to do things with ease just now disappeared when he heard the word Jing Mo, and his face turned sour: "You know, who told you?"
Jin Ziwan said coldly: "The cause you planted yourself, of course you have to taste the fruit yourself."
Xie Guining said quietly: "You didn't answer my question."
Jin Ziwan asked back: "Why did you save Sheng Xilin?"
Xie Guining closed his eyes.
really.
Xie Guining was silent for a while, and the first thing he said was: "Does Jing Mo know?"
Jin Ziwan said: "I didn't say anything."
He did not say that Jing Mo already knew about it, but? Xie Guining didn't need to know about it, because it was what he wanted to negotiate.
He sat down on a chair and put one leg on the other: "Now you have two ways to go. First, tell me the truth, including Sheng Xilin, Concubine Zhen , Sheng Xiyun," he paused, "and my mother Yu Linglong."
"Secondly, I will tell Jingmo the truth." Jin Ziwan's peach blossom eyes are now cold and chilling, "I also tell Sheng Xiyun."
Xie Guining stared at him for a while before saying, "What do you know?"
Jin Ziwan knew that his implication was to accept the first way, which was within his expectations. After all, in Xie Guining's view, if Jing Mo knew the truth, what Jing Mo would do would be out of his control. It would be fine if Xie Guining was killed with a single blow, but he was most afraid of Jing Mo killing himself with a single blow.And if Sheng Xiyun knew about it, things would become extremely complicated.
Jin Ziwan said succinctly: "Don't worry about what I know, you start from the beginning."
The lantern flickered, and Xie Guining sighed softly: "26 years ago, my sister Xie Yinglu was the most famous talented daughter in the capital. Shui is the sweetheart of all young talents in the capital, and there is an endless stream of matchmakers going to the Xie Mansion to propose marriage, almost breaking through the threshold."
"But? My elder sister fell in love with someone at first sight during a royal banquet, and they made a private decision for life."
Jin Ziwan's heart sank, he calculated the year, the person Xie Yinglu fell in love with at first sight could be anyone, but it couldn't be the former emperor who was over forty at that time.
Sure enough, Xie Guining said slowly: "It was the crown prince at that time, Sheng Xilin, who had a private life with her."
Jin Ziwan's breath became short of breath, and he had a premonition that those extremely absurd thoughts he and Gu Zhaohong had thought before were most likely the truth!
"One is the prince of the Eastern Palace, and the other is the prime minister's daughter. It sounds like a match made in heaven, a good story." Jin Ziwan asked, "What happened after that?"
"It's very simple," Xie Guining said calmly, "it was not only Sheng Xilin who was attracted to my sister at that royal banquet, but also the late emperor."
"At the right time, the year of the first emperor's draft was announced. Originally, the age limit for a show girl was 16 years old, and my sister was 17 years old at the time, so no one worried about this matter until the first emperor ordered that the show The age of women is raised from sixteen to seventeen."
Xie Guining was a little disappointed: "My sister is on the list."
The draft is to force all eligible unmarried official women to enter the palace. Xie Yinglu is the daughter of the prime minister, how could she resist the order?
"My sister entered the palace draft, and she was the only one selected among the girls in that session." Xie Guining said, "Everyone can see that this draft is basically a game set up by the late emperor to get my sister."
Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king, who can not obey, who dare not obey?
Xie Yinglu was conferred the title of imperial concubine immediately after entering the palace, and she was honored and favored like no other, but Jin Ziwan clearly remembered that ever since he could remember, concubine Zhen had become a taboo in the palace, and almost no one dared to mention it. Otherwise, how could it be possible for Sheng Xiyun to be fostered under someone else's lap since she was a child, and yet not be favored at all?
unless……
Jin Ziwan said slowly: "Sheng Xiyun...whose child is it?"
The wind outside the study was still, and at this moment, swords were on the verge of breaking out.
Xie Guining was silent for a while, before saying: "Sheng Xilin's."
Really... really! !
Jin Ziwan was dizzy, he snapped, "You never told him?!"
Xie Guining looked at Jin Ziwan's eyes full of pity: "If he knew the truth, why would he be sitting in this seat in this grand dynasty?"
Jin Jin was stunned for a moment.
"Sheng Xilin is someone my sister loved, and I will let him live, which can be regarded as fulfilling my sister's last wish," Xie Guining said, "But? He will not be such a good emperor as the emperor."
Jin Ziwan sneered: "Why do you say it so nicely, as if you are very sincere and full of compassion for the world, the reason you support Sheng Xiyun instead of Sheng Xilin is because he is closer to your blood relationship, whether Sheng Xiyun is Whose son, you are his uncle, as long as he becomes the emperor, you are the biggest relative. But if Sheng Xilin sits on the throne, he will not only have Sheng Xiyun as his son Now, and you know about his royal scandal, how can he tolerate you?"
Xie Guining's eyes showed a bit of appreciation: "As expected of Governor Jin, he can figure out Xie's mind in just a few words."
Jin Ziwan ignored his words and asked, "How long has this been going on? Since Xie Yinglu entered the palace?" He calculated the time, unbelievable, "You were only 13 years old at that time!"
"The Xie family should start a family at the age of 13." Xie Guining said indifferently.
Jin Ziwan closed his eyes, the mystery of Sheng Xiyun's life experience has been solved, and the rest is...his.
Thinking of this, his throat felt a little dry: "Then... what about my mother? She is not a member of the court at all, how could she be dragged into these quagmire?"
Xie Guining was a little hesitant: "I don't know where your mother came from, but one day before my sister entered the palace, she said she saved a woman, she was your mother, she called herself Yu Linglong, my sister will She stayed in the mansion, and the two of them seemed to be close friends in the boudoir, have nothing to say? Don't talk about it. Later, when my sister entered the palace, your mother also entered the palace with her and became a palace maid."
Jin Ziwan narrowed his eyes, Xie Yinglu rescued Xie Yulong?Xie Yulong is a member of Jiemeng Villa, with advanced and profound martial arts, how could Xie Yinglu, an official woman, be able to save her?
But? Let's not mention it for now. He doesn't care how her mother and Xie Yinglu met. No matter how they are saved, it is his mother who owes her kindness, and what he wants to hear is the follow-up.
"Although my elder sister looks gentle and gentle, but in fact, her temper is as fierce as fire," Xie Guining sighed, "She was forced to miss her sweetheart, and became the concubine of her beloved father. The attitude is really not polite, but? The former emperor really liked her very much, and he continued to be honored and favored."
Jin Ziwan was surprised: "The first emperor didn't know that she and Sheng Xilin—"
"I know," Xie Guining said, "When the late Emperor was still in his prime, he didn't care because he knew that no one would dare to question him. But when he got old, his suspicions became serious. Although he had no evidence, but... He has always suspected that the emperor is Sheng Xilin's child."
Jin Ziwan nods his head, which can explain why the former Queen's attitude towards Concubine Zhen was elusive, and she disliked Sheng Xiyun so much that she even wanted to kill him to fill the house.
Jin Ziwan asked again: "What's the matter with my mother? Why did she change from the concubine Zhen's maid of honor to the late emperor's noble lady?"
The author has something to say:
