Chapter 303 Transition
Song Chengzhang sat down in front of the imperial concubine and looked at her with a complicated expression.

The imperial concubine smiled bitterly, "I don't know."

Even if she knew, she couldn't say it.

After all, it concerns the secret of my granddaughter.

"Yan'er, I actually have a twin brother who looks exactly like me.

When we were young, I was in the open, while he hid in places where no one could see him like a rat that fears the light.

Perhaps he was feeling unbalanced, so seventeen years ago, he found a way to replace me.

He became me, and I was locked up by him in a cave outside the capital."

Song Chengzhang slowly recounted the past events, and also told what he could about how King Kang and his men rescued him from the cave.

"Now that I'm back, he's dead.

I did not publicize this matter widely, and not many people knew about it.

I didn't want to tell you about this because I was worried that you would feel uncomfortable.

But now it seems that if I don’t tell you, the knot in your heart will probably be even bigger.

Yan'er, no matter what happened in the past, can we just not take it to heart?

We are old now, so let’s just live our lives well.”

Song Chengzhang reached out and held the imperial concubine's hand, speaking earnestly.

The imperial concubine nodded with tears in her eyes, "Of course I am willing, but Your Majesty, will you dislike me?"

Song Chengzhang raised his hand to wipe the tears from the imperial concubine, "Of course not, rather than saying I dislike you, I feel more sorry for you.

I heard from Jinming that he had plotted against you.

Fortunately, it's not too late. No one will dare to plot against you like this again!"

The imperial concubine looked at the sincerity and heartache in Song Chengzhang's eyes, and finally couldn't help but buried her head in his arms and cried.

For a moment, the imperial concubine did not think about it carefully. Since the emperor originally did not intend to tell her about this, why did he suddenly change his mind?

After King Jing left the capital with his wife and children, Ye Weiguo also left the capital with his troops and headed for the border.

This time when Ye Weiguo left, he took his wife Ye Fang with him.

Ye Fangshi hadn't seen her other sons and grandchildren properly for several years. Taking this opportunity, she wanted to go to the border to have a look. It happened that before the Chinese New Year next year, they could return to the capital together to celebrate the New Year.

As soon as the old couple of the Ye family left, the only one left in the general's mansion was Ye Shuli, who was still studying at the Imperial Academy.

Before Ye Fang left, she took him to Prince Kang's Mansion and asked Ye Peizhu to help look after her youngest brother.

Ye Peizhu naturally agreed. After obtaining Prince Kang's consent, she also suggested that Ye Shuli temporarily move to Prince Kang's mansion to live, so that there would be more people and it would be more lively.

But Ye Shuli refused.

Ye Peizhu had no choice but to visit him at the general's mansion from time to time, or ask him to come over and sit down to chat about recent affairs.

Due to the busy government affairs, Prince Kang and Prince An had to go to the palace every day to help their father handle government affairs.

Although King Kang was not interested in power, it must be said that he did have some talent to be an emperor.

If he were to handle the same political affairs, he would be able to handle them very well.

But it wouldn't work if it was Prince An.

Prince An only cares about eating, drinking and having fun. He is lucky enough not to mess up state affairs, let alone handle them well.

So after Prince An helped for a few days, Song Chengzhang told him that he no longer needed to come to the palace to help.

Prince An was very happy, and went back happily to continue being a leisurely prince.

After Prince An left, Prince Kang was the only one left to help.

Song Chengzhang not only asked King Kang to help with government affairs, but also talked to him about things like how to govern the country from time to time.

Unconsciously, King Kang really learned a lot about being a king and governing a country, which he had never been exposed to before.

However, despite what he had learned, King Kang once told his father in a serious tone that he did not want to be the new emperor.

At that time, Song Chengzhang just smiled and said nothing.

This made Prince Kang a little confused about what his father meant for a moment.

The peaceful days are fleeting.

In a blink of an eye, more than seven months passed and it was the twelfth lunar month at the end of the year.

Song Jiujiu also successfully celebrated her second birthday.

The two-year-old little Fat Jiuer is still chubby, but in a cute way, like a chubby glutinous rice ball. Looking at her makes people want to take a bite of her fair and tender little face.
