Xue Ruoyun had just jumped down from the wall and was about to return to his room. However, she hastily bumped into a person's firm chest, almost falling down.
"Why are you so careless?" Mu Sheng helped her up. In his heart, however, he was secretly happy that he bumped into her.
"Eh? Why are you here?" Xue Ruyun could clearly see that it was Mu Ying. He gratefully glanced at him and asked.
So it turned out that Mu Sheng had just arrived. He had only heard about the matter of the murder at the shop from Yun Zhi after he found out that Xue Luoyun had gone out. Worried that Xue Ruyun would be in danger if he went alone, he hurriedly walked out, wanting to find him. The moment he stepped out of the door, he bumped into the returning Xue Luoyun.
Mu Yong shushed her and quickly pulled her in, closing the door behind them.
"How is it? Have you found any clues? " Mu Ying personally poured a cup of tea for Xue Ruyun and waited for her to finish drinking it before he slowly asked.
"Mu Sheng, do you know my mother?" After drinking the water, Xue Ruyun roughly described what happened just now. He grabbed ahold of him and suddenly asked.
"Hmm, why do you ask?" Mu Sheng handed her a silk handkerchief, letting her wipe the sweat off her forehead considerately. Don't worry.
"Just answer my question?" At this moment, Xue Luoyun's mind was in a state of panic. The secret she had just heard was too shocking, and could possibly be related to her mother's death. She was somewhat sad, yet also somewhat terrified. Even more so, she was angry. She had to investigate this matter thoroughly.
"Yeah, I've seen one or two before." Mu Rong Zhan didn't understand why Xue Ruoyun had asked this question, but he knew that she definitely had her own reasons for asking it.
"Tell me everything you know." The original owner's memories in Xue Luoyun's mind were not many, and in addition to the early death of the Korean style, at that time he was still young, so it was even more so that he did not remember much. Thus, he was in a hurry to find out more about his mother's situation.
"Her looks could even be said to be devastatingly beautiful. She was one of the top beauties in the capital and even in the Western Lion Country."
"Didn't I say what he looked like? Can you tell me more about him and my father? Oh, right, there's also the matter with Mu Zheng. " Xue Ruoyun anxiously asked.
"I only know a little about the matter with Xue Duan Sheng; I'm not too clear about it." However, I knew quite a lot about this matter with my royal brother at that time. But when I was out fighting, I heard a lot about it from the Queen Mother. " Mu Ying recalled.
"Tell me what you know first."
"Royal Brother met your mother, Han Xiaodie, during an unexpected outing. Later on, the two of them got along for a lifetime. Both of them were engaged to be married to both of them, regardless of whether they were husband and wife. However, the empress had secretly investigated Han Xiaodie's identity, and found out that her identity was unknown … "
"What do you mean, unknown?" He had heard Mu Zheng say that Han Xiaodie's father was his own maternal grandfather, who was also the rich Jia Han in the city. It was said that his family was prominent at that time, and he was also a famous beauty in the capital.
"That's not what I meant..."
Mu Ying waited for Xue Ruyun to finish and then calmly continued, "I'm referring to her father's real identity as Han Qian."
"A million?"
"Right." Mu Sheng nodded.
"At that time, his father was indeed the Old Master Fu Jia Han of the city. However, he had just arrived in the capital a few years ago. Furthermore, Han Qian's real name wasn't his real name. According to what the Queen Mother sent out, his surname was indeed Han, but it was not called Han million. Han million was just because he was good at business, and had more than one million yuan in wealth, so someone gave him a nickname. Over time, everyone thought that he was Han million yuan. "
"Oh, so it's like that. Then what does it have to do with my mother's identity?"
"Don't worry, just listen to what I have to say."
"So his real name is Han Baoxin, so of course his real name is not important. But we found out his other identity. He's actually a Korean. "
"What?" I didn't think that this million Han wouldn't be from the Western Lion Country, but from a neighbouring country? " This point caused Xue Ruyun to turn pale with fright.
"That's right, if it weren't for the fact that the Queen Mother had sent many people and each of them had extraordinary abilities, they would not have been able to find out the secret behind all of this. If it wasn't for Imperial Mother's people investigating more deeply, no one would have known about this, including Imperial Brother. "
"No wonder Mu Zheng had never mentioned this. It turns out he didn't know at all." It was only then that Xue Ruyun found out about the many things that had been involved; Mu Zheng had never understood them.
"Moreover, other than the Wealthy Jia from the Western Lion Country, he actually has a cousin. What's even more shocking is that this cousin of his has already become the current famous Grand Commandant Han Tianyi! "
"How can someone from another country be a Shangguan in Xiliang?" Xue Ruyun was extremely confused, because according to the rules of Western Paradise, they didn't appoint people from other countries. This matter involved the security of the country, the disclosure of information, and so on.
"That's what made mother's heart jump, because this Han Tianyi has been a government official for so many years. Everyone thought that he was from the Western Lion Country, which also means that he has been hiding in the Western Lion Country for so many years."
"This is indeed not a small matter. It would be fine if he was loyal, but if he had ulterior motives, then there must be some huge conspiracy."
"The two of them have a very close relationship, but on the surface, they don't seem to know each other at all. No one knew of their relationship. They only thought that Han Qian was a person who did business and never asked about politics. "No one is going to investigate who the high position Han Tianyi is."
"Then why did they deliberately hide their relationship and identity?"
"This has not been discovered?" Mu Sheng shook his head.
"There are two possibilities. In the end, although they are people from other countries, they only want to live a bit in peace. Because they are afraid of attracting criticism, they deliberately concealed their identities."
"That possibility exists." Mu Ying looked at Xue Ruyun with certainty.
"However, in other words, they intentionally concealed their identity, faked their identity, and then made a scene in the Western Paradise. They controlled the money, and those who control it might harbor malicious intentions." Xue Luoyun's guess was not without reason.
Mu Sheng nodded. "Exactly so, that's why Imperial Mother was worried, saying that this little butterfly's identity is unknown. In addition, the Queen Mother was even more worried about the anti-Crown Prince faction that Han Tianyi had always supported in the imperial court. He was worried that the encounter between Xiao Die and his royal brother might be a conspiracy. Only then did I stop this marriage with all my might. "
"Later on, Imperial Father became seriously ill and had a surging undercurrent in the imperial court. Han Tianyi repeatedly advised the Ninth Prince to usurp the throne, hoping that Imperial Father would be replaced by the crown prince after he passed away. The Queen Mother was even more worried that Imperial Brother would be together with Little Butterfly."
"It's just that at that time, Mu Zheng loved Xiao Die so much that the empress dowager couldn't stop him. That's why he came up with such a trick and coaxed Xiao Die to marry into the Xue Manor?" Xue Ruyun was suddenly enlightened and looked at Mu Sheng in disbelief.
"At that time, the situation was extremely dangerous, and Imperial Brother was not in the mood to fight for power." At that time, the situation was extremely dangerous, and Imperial Brother was not in the mood to fight for power. Thinking up to here, Mu Ying felt a bit ashamed. If he had known that the empress dowager would break them up like this and ruin the happiness of Mu Zheng's entire life, he would never have agreed.
"Later on, after royal brother ascended to the throne, he knew that there was no longer any fate between him and Little Die, so he began to rule the country peacefully. The first is to clean up people with different intentions. After the ninth prince was sent to prison, his accomplices were also uprooted.
That period of time had already begun to investigate Han Tianyi's background, and it looked like they were about to implicate millions of people in the Han Family. However, someone had leaked the news, and everyone had suddenly disappeared overnight. " Mu Sheng recalled and felt really vexed. Just as they were about to investigate it thoroughly, they let these people run away.
"Did my mother run too?" Xue Luoyun remembered that he didn't have this part. Because when he was young, his mother had always been by his side.
"She didn't …" I don't know why. " Mu Sheng also couldn't wrap his head around it.
"Does Mu Zheng know about this?"
"He doesn't know about the background behind Xiao Die. Only the Empress Dowager and I, and a few others, know about us. We don't want our royal brother to feel sad. After all, he is infatuated with us, and I don't want his dream to be shattered as well. Let him indulge in the pure world of their love. " The empress dowager and Mu Ying really did put in a lot of effort for Mu Zheng.
"At that time, the fight for the throne could be said to be extremely dangerous, especially when Mu Zheng was the crown prince. Plus, since he had not been identified, there were a lot of conspiracies involved. That's why the empress dowager married her to Xue Duan Sheng to protect imperial brother's safety. "
So the empress dowager had long guessed that Han Xiaodie had a motive for getting close to the emperor. Maybe she was doing it on purpose, maybe she was being used. But for the sake of Mu Zheng's safety and the stability of the country, Her Majesty could not bring herself to think of stability.
Xue Ruyun finally understood. No wonder the empress dowager had always been against her. So it was because she was Xiao Die's daughter and also had a suspicious identity, so the empress dowager kept her a secret.
The empress dowager felt a bit of guilt in her heart when she asked Xiao Die to marry Xue Duan Sheng. Therefore, before she found out whether or not Xiao Die was involved, she did not reveal her identity as Xiao Die's father. When all the people involved had disappeared, the Empress Dowager, seeing that it was her duty, did not care too much.
As Xue Muyun heard this, all sorts of feelings welled up in his heart. She had thought that her mother was unhappy because the Empress Dowager had arranged for her to marry her father. However, after that, her body became weak and she passed away at an early age. Who would have thought that there would be so many problems behind this tragedy?
"Then I have something else to ask you. When the empress dowager married my mother to my father, father must have investigated her identity. Does he know about these things?"
"At first, Xue Duan Sheng didn't know, but he gradually noticed the complicated relationship behind this. The empress dowager once again hinted at him many times, saying that Xiao Die's identity is different. " Xue Duan Sheng had become smart since he was old and ought to have known about it long ago.
"Then what does my father think?" After all, at that time, he was the only person his mother could rely on. If Xue Duan Sheng was still not good to her, then her situation would really be too difficult.
