Chapter 222
The prince acted decisively and hurriedly. By the time the emperor got the news, it was too late. Facing the soldiers who had just won the battle and killed the soldiers who came back alive from the battlefield, this was something all generals could not bear.Such a thing caused an uproar in the court, and some simple-minded people directly raised their voices of opposition in the army.The prince also knew that what he did was a little impulsive when something like this happened, but right now it is not the time to pursue these things. It is better to stabilize the morale of the army. After all, the imperial court has been fighting for so many years and the treasury has already been empty, blocking foreign enemies. If one of my own people is rebelling, I am afraid that I will not be able to control it.

It was a very famous general in the army, Luo Xun's grandfather, Mr. Luo, who led his own army and was ordered to suppress the troublemakers, but he didn't hurt anyone but tied them all up. Standing up and kneeling in the school grounds, these people were already in awe of old Hou Luo. Now that he came forward, their arrogance naturally subsided a lot, but the indignation in their hearts could not be appeased.

The emperor and the prince had a few discussions at the end, and then randomly assigned a crime to the general who died tragically. They only said that the general was deliberately so violent, and soon the emperor ordered the house to be ransacked. As expected, evidence of intentional treason was found in the general's mansion. .

At first the generals and soldiers who were emotional were so angry because the emperor mistakenly killed the meritorious minister Gu Er, but now the emperor killed a traitor who collaborated with the enemy and treason, naturally no one dared to complain about this general.

But at that time, it was Qi Yunliang's grandfather Ning Yinian who was in charge of copying the house and keeping records. This so-called evidence was nothing but fiction.Therefore, after understanding this matter, Ning Yinian felt very depressed and could not relieve it.He told the story after being drunk once. If such a thing spread out, the generals would be chilled, and the common people would also reprimand the king for being immoral.So for the sake of the so-called righteousness of the family and the country, it didn't take long for Ning Yinian's family to commit a crime and be exiled. Although it was exiled, the whole family died on the way.

At that time, Qi Yeqin's official wife was Ding Yinian's daughter-in-law Ding Yirou. Naturally, she was afraid that something like this would harm her, so the second wife at that time didn't know whether she saw Qi Yeqin's fear or the two had intentions. It was negotiated to frame Ding's family as someone who had an affair, but in the end Qi Yeqin did not know why, and finally returned Ding's innocence, but demoted his next wife as a concubine.

Thinking about this series of blows, coupled with those undelivered letters, finally Ding's blood collapsed to death during childbirth.

After hearing such a tragic story, Qi Yunliang understood why Qi Yeqin was so taboo to mention his mother in the mansion, but never mentioned a word about his ancestor's family.This kind of thing was originally a secret, and it was guarded by Qi Yeqin alone, but now this secret is known to her again.

Even though he felt sorry for the general who died in vain, he had a deeper understanding of the cold blood of the royal family.Who knows if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did it intentionally at that time, and if such a thing happened, no one would like it, and it can only be blamed for the impermanence of the world.

With a pale face, she came out of the main hall. She didn't understand what role her father played in this whole incident. Even if she chose to ignore the injustice of her in-laws or turn against her in order to protect the family, Qi Yunliang would be the same. It's acceptable, after all, being born in this world, if you only rely on your passion, you will only gain a few lives, but what about your own mother?How much sincerity is there?

"Are you okay?" Chu Yunji walked up to Qi Yunliang, saw that her face was a little pale, and wanted to help her, but thought that this was still in the capital's mansion, so she put down her raised hand, and only looked towards the main hall. Zhong looked at it and then turned to Qi Yunliang.

"It's okay, let's go back to the palace." Shaking his head to indicate that he was okay, he turned his head to look at Qi Yunyue who was still playing there, and then turned his gaze away from the capital with Chu Yunji.

When Qi Yunliang left, he didn't say goodbye to his father, and Qi Yeqin didn't come out of the living room to say goodbye to Chu Yunji. Everyone else was waiting outside, and there was no one in the hallway. Naturally, no one knew about the father and daughter. What exactly did the two say.

Just looking at Qi Yunliang's appearance, he guessed that it should be a bad thing after all, otherwise it wouldn't be the case.

After getting into the carriage, under Qi Yunliang's signal, Qingfeng did not stay in the carriage with Qi Yunliang, but sat on the shaft from time to time.There were only Chu Yunji and Qi Yunliang in the carriage.

After a while of silence, Chu Yunji took the lead to ask, "Is the talk with your father going well today?"

"Well, it's going well, and I know everything about my mother. By the way, let me show you, this is the bamboo you're talking about?"

He took out the jade bamboo pendant wrapped in red cloth from the box and put it in Chu Yunji's hand. After taking it from her hand and observing it carefully for a while, as if he remembered something, he took out a pendant that was almost the same from his chest. Although the pendant of Qi Yunliang is somewhat different from that of Qi Yunliang, it can generally be seen that it should belong to the Chu family.

"The difference is almost the same, but we have to go back to the Chu family and ask the head of the family to confirm."

"Well, since that's the case, then this jade will be placed with you."

Chu Yunji thought about it for a while and felt that it would be less troublesome to put it here, so he also agreed and put the jade pendant together with his own peg and put it away.

"Chu Yunji, I don't know something, you don't have to answer, but you can't lie to me."

It was rare to see Qi Yunliang with such a serious face, Chu Yunji didn't dare to be careless, and agreed after thinking about it.

"With the strength of the Chu family, it shouldn't be difficult to find a lost child. Why can't I find my mother?"

Chu Yunji had a clear expression on his face, and it wasn't surprising that Qi Yunliang would ask him this question. "I thought you would never remember this question. As you said, it is not difficult for the Chu family to find someone. But the difficulty is that this child was sent by the mistress herself. If she doesn't want people to find out, she must not What clues will be left? Although the mistress did not reveal anything, but since things happened, there will always be traces to be found. After the new head of the family took over the throne, he began to inquire about the whereabouts of the aunt, but the head of the house is already in his early thirties , Auntie must no longer be young."

"So this matter was shelved later, and when you knew that you would become the next Patriarch, you started to look for people again."

Just now, Chu Yunji's words were euphemistic, not trying to defend himself and the Chu family. In the final analysis, the Chu family did too much.In the past, some people felt that his father's succession to the position of Patriarch was obviously unfair, so they deliberately searched for the whereabouts of the aunt, but it was not easy to find after several times, and the new Patriarch had no faults all the time. The house is well-organized, and the person who was looking for someone was just looking for someone who is orthodox and fearful. Now that there are no such things to worry about, no one pays too much attention to whether this person is found or not.After all, she is only a woman, and even if she is found, she is not young, and she has not been trained in the Chu family since she was a child, so she is naturally not worthy of the current Patriarch.
