The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 856 Iron-Blooded Wrist (5)
Although he knew that his words were suspected of deliberately comforting him, Chu Xunyang shut his mouth wisely.

Lord Yanling straightened her long hair, and didn't try to do anything beyond her power, but picked a honey-colored ribbon from the vanity box on the car, and loosened her hair below her shoulders. At the end, she pressed her head against his shoulder and said softly, "Are you tired? Just squint for a while when you're tired, and I'll call you when you arrive!"

Chu Xunyang said nothing, but leaned on him obediently, but did not close his eyes.

The carriage moved forward steadily, and after hesitating again and again, Chu Xunyang couldn't help asking: "The matter of my uncle——when did you know about it?"

She tried her best to maintain a calm tone, but the short sentences were still harsh and difficult.

"Not a few days earlier than you." Yanling Jun said, because of deliberate reasons, there was a kind of deep-seated tenderness in his voice, even Chu Xunyang knew for the first time——

His voice could have been so gentle and gentle that it was like a trickle that was warmed by the warm sun for the whole noon in the spring of March, moistening things silently, and directly overflowing to wash away any lingering feelings in his heart Son.

"Do you still remember the clay sculpture we saw at the night market on the Shangyuan Festival?" Lord Yanling said, "You also noticed it at the time, but then your uncle killed the old man first, and all the clues were cut off. I had no clue during the later period. I thought it was strange, so I borrowed Qing Shui's staff to collect as much court information as possible before and after the destruction of the Great Rong Kingdom. That is, a few days ago, Chunyu Lanyou's identity Exposing, I remembered that clay sculpture again, I don’t know if you remember it at that time—the woman’s dress on the clay sculpture is an ordinary court lady’s costume.”

Concubine Zhao, whom Emperor Xianzong favored, was born as a palace maid.

It is said that although the Zhao family is not a high-ranking and prominent family, they can be regarded as a scholarly family with a clean family background. Concubine Zhao's father works in the Imperial Academy. Although the position is not high, the Zhao family is considered wealthy.

However, when Concubine Zhao was 12 years old, there was a change in her family. Her father was implicated by her superiors and involved in a literary prison. She was convicted and executed.

That was the time when she was filled into the palace as a maidservant, and she did it for three years.

She was valued by Xianzong by chance at the age of 15 and included in the harem. Her background was looked down upon by many people, but it was also very unexpected. After getting this daughter, Xianzong almost began to favor her She, only in the first year, she was exceptionally registered as a concubine.

It may just be because of her bad background, although this Concubine Zhao is well-loved and generous, she lived very cautiously in the palace. After following Xianzong for several years, she almost lived in her own palace Even the palace banquets held by the emperor, and the state banquets during the New Year's holidays are also unable to refuse.

Xianzong doted on her and indulged her even more, so he didn't force her.

Therefore, only a few high-ranking concubines and the servants in her own palace were lucky enough to see the true face of this unrivaled number one favorite concubine.

It is also because of this important relationship that the outside world exaggerates her beauty as only in the sky. In addition, Xianzong, who has always been drunk and romantic, rarely favors other women after her, and only indulges in her. , the hat of a demon concubine, a disaster for the country, was naturally deducted.

Because the concubine of Xianzong was indeed too popular, there was no need to inquire about it. Chu Xunyang actually knew something about her life.

Xiaozong was absurd at first, and after having Concubine Zhao, he became more obsessed with the harem. This is also true. As for how much Concubine Zhao played in it——

That is unknown.

Chu Xunyang didn't bother to pursue the past of these old sesame seeds and rotten millet too much, and just listened attentively.

Lord Yanling glanced sideways, saw her calm expression, and then continued: "At that time, I suddenly thought of the concubine Zhao recorded in the historical materials, just because in the records of her materials, there was no such thing as Mr. Li around her. For such a person, I asked people to check his life again, that is, I got the final definite news three days ago-it was said that when the Zhao family was raided, there should be a young man. The two-year-old son was held by Zhao's mother and set himself on fire."

"So, when the Zhao family fell, uncle didn't actually die in the flames?" Chu Xunyang said, feeling more and more bitter in his heart.

"Probably so." Lord Yanling said: "I don't know how their siblings got together again. I think it was during those years that your uncle received a lot of care from your mother and concubine. His life is quite suitable. It was revealed to Qing Shui there that when Chu Pei captured the capital and Emperor Xianzong fled in a hurry, your uncle and Shirong also went to Xunyang City to settle down, and the care of your mother and concubine must have been indispensable. Later Xunyang City If he fell, he turned around and came back here."

Although the Zhao family was only implicated in the literary prison back then, it was also a disaster.

Zhao Qi'an, who was only two years old at the time, would have survived safely if he hadn't been protected by his sister.
It's no wonder that he has such deep feelings for Concubine Zhao, and he loves Chu Xunyang even more, and he is willing to give up everything.

Chu Xunyang pursed the corners of his lips vigorously, never saying a word to judge.

Lord Yanling stroked her hair again and said, "Your uncle's real name is Zhao Qi'an, and he entered the palace after changing his name and surname."

Zhao Qi'an!
Chu Xunyang didn't know these three words until after his death, and they were slowly engraved in his heart bit by bit.

This is her uncle, her relatives, this person, even if he dies, he will never have the chance to live as his true self once in this life.

And the only thing her so-called relative can do——

It was just to send him away personally.

Suppressing the bitter emotions flooding in his heart, Chu Xunyang closed his eyes silently, and leaned on Lord Yanling's shoulders to rest his eyes.

It was already two hours later when the two returned to the East Palace.

In the evening, when the carriage arrived at the entrance of the alley in front of the East Palace, it was discovered that the entrance was blocked by many people and guards of honor.

The journey of the carriage was blocked, and Chu Xunyang opened the door to see it.

"It's the prince of the county who has returned to the mansion." The boy driving the car replied.

Chu Xunyang looked over, at that time Chu Qifeng had already dismounted, stepped up the steps, and was about to walk in the door.

At the gate, the imperial army sent by the emperor was still there. Because the emperor had just passed away, neither Chu Qifeng nor Chu Xunyang took any action during this sensitive period, and they were allowed to guard here.

Chu Qifeng went up the steps without squinting, and a large number of people beside him watched eagerly, just like every time these days, but this time he suddenly said: "The assassins who assassinated His Majesty have already been executed, and the East Palace is not going to kill you." If I need your protection any more, get out of wherever you came from immediately, and don’t stay here to obstruct my king’s eyes.”
