Chapter 283 The Truth
"Okay, I'll come up now."

Xie Xinlai's feet sank into the mud at the bottom of the river. Perhaps he had been standing for a long time and couldn't pull his legs out at once. Seeing this, Tang Qingshu stretched out his helping hand to pull Xie Xinlai out of the river.

After landing on the shore, Xie Xinlai sighed, "I'm getting old, my feet got stuck in the mud and I almost couldn't get up. Qingshu, it's a good thing you came to find me."

Xie Xin came to sit on the bank, washing the mud on his feet, and caught a lot of river crabs, shrimps, and some snails in the small bamboo basket on his body.

Tang Qingshu glanced at the bamboo basket, then at Xie Xinlai, "Uncle Xie, do you know Xiao Yishui, the Twelfth Prince of the dynasty?"

Without an invitation, the Xie family would not have come to the Tang family to play.

Even if they asked for help, they would not come in even if the door was open.

During the two days Xiao Yishui stayed in the Tang family, Tang Qingshu didn't want Xiao Yishui to know the existence of the Xie family, lest something happen to the Xie family and bring disaster to the Xie family.Of course, the more important point is that if what Tang Chuyu said didn't lie to him, it's hard to say what Xie Xin would do when he saw Xiao Yishui.

When Xie Xin came to hear his question, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled slightly, "I know, how could I not know, the frontier is just relying on the twelve princes to take back the city, and the emperor was happy to reduce our taxes. , Now the Twelve Princes are Dayan's heroes, when you go to the market to buy prey, you can't hear many people saying that the Twelve Princes are very powerful."

"Do you know about the past of the Twelve Princes?"

The smile on Xie Xinlai's face froze, and he didn't react for a while. He was stunned for a moment, looked up at Tang Qingshu, and asked, "Qingshu, why did you suddenly talk to me about the twelve princes? Did you see the twelve princes Repel the enemy and defend the frontier, so you want to go to the frontier to fight the enemy? If this is the case, you have to think carefully. You used to be alone, you can go there. But now you have a wife and children, and you have a concern around you. Going to the frontier to kill the enemy is not a good choice for you."

"Uncle Xie, just answer me honestly. Do you know the past of the twelve princes?" Letting Xie Xin try his best to change the subject, Tang Qingshu still clung to this question.

Xie Xinlai smiled awkwardly: "How do I know the past of the Twelve Princes? I'm just a hunter living in the mountains, and I usually only go out to sell prey, listen to other people's chatter and hear some things, Qing Shu, you have been on the battlefield and fought with soldiers. After acquaintance, maybe you know more than me.”

"I do know a lot. The Twelfth Prince has been a prince who can be bullied by the eunuchs and maids since he was born in the palace. The emperor has never visited him, and he doesn't care about him at all. It's just because his mother and concubine's family is collaborating with the enemy." Treason. The family of the mother and concubine of the twelve princes is a family of generals. They conquered the country together with the first emperor of Dayan. Later, they guarded the imperial land of Dayan and trained useful soldiers to defend the country from enemies on the frontier. By the way, that family Surnamed Tang."

Xie Xinlai froze, raised his head quickly, and looked at Tang Qingshu in surprise.

Seeing the look on Xie Xinlai's face, Tang Qingshu felt confident. Sure enough, they were the Tang family who had been slandered as collaborators and traitors.

Tang Qingshu continued: "I didn't expect that the family of generals who have been loyal in the past generations would suddenly be obsessed with ghosts, collaborating with the enemy and treason, and it is rare that they will end up with a family of robbers."

"Qingshu!" Xie Xinlai yelled sharply, "We did not collude with the enemy and treason! The loyalty of the Tang family to the emperor can be learned from the world, but the emperor was afraid of the credit and popular support built by the Tang family through the generations, so he would prevaricate a crime to destroy it." The Tang family!"

Xie Xin was finally provoked to tell the truth with the method of provocation.

Tang Qingshu asked: "Uncle Xie, am I the descendant of the Tang family?"

Xie Xinlai nodded, clenched his fists secretly, and asked him: "Qing Shu, how did you know this? And my identity."

The emperor did not allow anyone to talk about the Tang family's affairs. The people who interceded for the Tang family in the capital earlier were all beheaded for the crime of conspiracy.Some courageous theater troupes sang about the Tang family as part of a play, but they didn't dare to sing the word Tang family, so they had to use other names instead.

Furthermore, listening to opera troupe singing, who knows whether the story of the opera is true or who wrote it.

It is impossible for a junior like Tang Qingshu to know about the past with the Tang family.

"Uncle Xie, before I tell you how I know this, can you tell me what's going on?" Tang Qingshu sat down and played with the dog's tail grass.

Xie Xin said: "This matter is not as complicated as I thought. The first emperor died of illness and the new emperor came to power. It's just that the new emperor just took over the government and there are many things that he doesn't know how to do. They are all assisted by the old general. The old general Assisting the new emperor for ten years, the young master came back from his studies and got an official position. It happened that year that the enemy invaded and the emperor went out in person, but before he led the army to fight, he had a dispute with the young master about tactics. The frontier soldiers were all trained by the Tang family. Yes, they also felt that what Eldest Young Master said was reasonable, so they all followed Eldest Young Master's words and refused to listen to the emperor. From then on, the emperor began to have a grudge against Eldest Young Master."

"Young master is young and energetic. He only wants to do good things for the people when he is an official for the first time. Therefore, if he hears a lot of decisions in the court, he will directly argue with the emperor. All the officials are still on the side of the young master. The emperor will see you." The emperor had no choice but to bow his head. The emperor was 20 years older than the major general, but he did not have the majesty of the emperor in front of him. The anger in the emperor's heart was accumulating more and more, and gradually he felt that the old general who assisted him was easy-going on the surface. But secretly, maybe they looked down on him, and gradually the emperor felt that he was not an emperor, but a puppet."

"The prime minister also noticed the accumulated resentment in the emperor's heart, so he began to whisper in his ears, saying that the people of the Tang family wanted to replace him and want to get the world. If it weren't for this, the young general would not have embarrassed him in front of all the officials in the court. Didn't it just feel that he is not worthy to sit on the throne. Therefore, the emperor joined hands with the prime minister to convict the Tang family of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and took the opportunity to get rid of the Tang family. On the day when the whole family was executed, I accompanied the two young masters to escape from the siege Just met the pursuers on the way and got separated from the second young master. In order to get rid of the pursuers, we fled into this deep mountain. Seeing that there are few people living here, all the hunters live here, but the pursuers did not catch up, so we settled here Stay here."

Knowing what happened, Tang Qingshu frowned slightly, "Uncle Xie, why did my parents never tell me such a thing? The Tang family was stigmatized, and they were executed by all the families. Father never thought of helping Tang Will the family wash away the grievances?"

"Qing Shu, the eldest young master has never thought of clearing up any grievances. In the years when the Tang family was ransacked and beheaded, he felt the most guilty and uncomfortable in his heart." Xie Xinlai sighed.
