Qiao Zhongguo couldn't help but look surprised when he heard this.
In fact, the Meng Guxue in front of him was completely different from what he had seen and known before.
Meng Guxue noticed Qiao Zhongguo's surprise and couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"Master Qiao, was I terrible before? In your eyes, am I just like a joke?"
"Yeah, at that time I... thought I was the most special one in the world, thought I--"
Meng Guxue was a little stunned. The memories of the past appeared like a revolving lantern, and then they were all suppressed.
"That's all, don't mention the past."
"Master Qiao, I only believe in you. If it were anyone else standing in front of me, I would never say this."
"What I'm going to say next is very strange. You can just listen to a book or a play, but please be sure to hear me out, okay?"
When Qiao Zhongguo heard this, he knew that Meng Guxue had made great determination, so he nodded solemnly.
"Princess, it's okay to say it. I'm all ears."
Meng Guxue took a deep breath and then slowly spoke:
"Master Qiao, the first secret I want to tell you is that the second prince's life experience may be in doubt!"
When Qiao Zhongguo heard this, his heart skipped a beat!
really!
He knew that the secret Meng Guxue was going to tell must contain the mystery of the second prince's life experience!
But from Meng Guxue's tone, it seemed that even she didn't know the exact answer.
"What!?"
Qiao Zhongguo looked extremely shocked at the right time.
Meng Guxue had already expected Qiao Zhongguo's reaction. She gave Qiao Zhongguo some time to react before speaking in a low voice:
"Master Qiao, the reason why I only say I have doubts is because this is just my guess without any evidence."
"Let's put it this way, just think that I am just dreaming. In that dream, the second prince has an elder who is like his teacher and father, named Di Zaiying!"
"That's right, it's the Northern spy Di Zaiying who has been executed!"
Qiao Zhongguo's heart skipped a beat and he nodded lightly without interrupting.
Seeing that Qiao Zhongguo did not raise any questions or laugh at her for going crazy, Meng Guxue felt relieved and continued:
"I thought it was strange that Di Zaiying was very considerate to the second prince. Until one day by chance, I overheard Di Zaiying and Uncle Zhou having a secret conversation!"
"It was then that I realized that Di Zaiying was Princess Yuliu's old lover, and they had already been in love with each other when they were in the Northern Kingdom! It turned out that Di Zaiying was so considerate to the second prince, it was because he loved the house and the bird!"
"What I didn't expect was that next, Uncle Zhou suddenly mentioned something!"
"He asked Di Zaiying if he still remembered how he secretly sent him to the palace to have a private meeting with Yu Liu that year."
"At that time, Di Zaiying was stunned for a long time, and suddenly asked a question in a trembling voice, he said: Could it be... Could it be that Bai'er was... at that time..."
"I saw with my own eyes that Uncle Zhou nodded! Mr. Qiao, I think the meaning is not difficult to guess, right?"
When Qiao Zhongguo heard this, his face was horrified, but he was also filled with surprise.
It turns out that Uncle Zhou and his group were so bold that they secretly sent a foreign man into the harem, and even... they even had an affair with Princess Yuliu, who was already a concubine at the time!
Such an oversight really shouldn't happen in the heavily guarded inner courtyard of the palace!
I'm afraid that the Holy Emperor loved Princess Yuliu to the core at that time, so he was particularly forgiving to those around her, and that was why he caused such a disaster!
Meng Guxue looked at Qiao Zhongguo's expression, feeling extremely uneasy.
The dream theory sounded like nonsense to others. She was already prepared that Qiao Zhongguo would not believe her at all.
But even so, she still wants to say it!
Whether it's to repay Qiao Zhongguo for saving his life, or because he respects his character, I want to give the Qiao family a wake-up call!
"Master Qiao, this is the first secret I want to tell you."
Qiao Zhongguo frowned and did not look convinced.
After all, according to common sense, it is impossible for ordinary people to accept it so quickly, let alone doubt the life experience of a prince based on one word!
There was a "tangled" expression on his face, and he spoke after a long while:
"Princess, it's not that I want to doubt you, but this matter..."
"Anyway, thank you for informing me. I will return to Beijing to investigate this matter carefully!"
Hearing what Qiao Zhongguo said, Meng Guxue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, okay, she was still afraid that Qiao Zhong would treat her as a lunatic!
This gave her more courage to continue talking.
"Master Qiao, the second secret is a bit treacherous, so please don't take offense to it."
Qiao Zhongguo was filled with anticipation and nodded hastily.
Meng Guxue let out a long sigh, and then said solemnly: "The second secret concerns the prince!"
"Master Qiao, in my dream, the prince will die suddenly in two years!"
Qiao Zhongguo was shocked. Meng Guxue actually knew the inside story of the prince's sudden death!
Very good!
He looked "horrified", "This...how is this possible!"
"Princess, how could His Highness the Crown Prince die suddenly due to his strong body and young age? This, this, this... this minister absolutely cannot believe it!"
"Don't talk nonsense anymore. You are really exhausted. Go back and rest!"
Qiao Zhongguo felt that he almost had a split personality...
Meng Guxue looked solemn, but extremely persistent.
"Master Qiao, just think that I am talking nonsense, please listen to me!"
"The sudden death is actually just an excuse. The prince was actually killed by someone! And the murderer is—the current Holy Emperor!"
Qiao Zhongguo slowly opened his mouth. This time, the shock on his face was real and unfaltering!
Holy lord...
It turns out to be the Holy One!
They say that tiger poison cannot eat its seeds! How could His Majesty deal with such an outstanding son who is only one in a million?
Meng Guxue shook her head again, "No, if we really want to talk about it, there are actually two murderers!"
"One is the Holy One who makes the move, and the other is the Second Prince who plans the plan!"
Qiao Zhongguo's breathing was rapid and his mood was difficult to calm down.
Meng Guxue has already spoken:
"One day two years later, a painting leaked from the East Palace. The portrait showed a lifelike Princess Yuliu, but...the clothes were not very appropriate."
"This painting fell into the hands of the Holy One by 'very coincidence'. After seeing the painting, the Holy One became furious and ordered Huang Pei to secretly search the East Palace!"
"This search actually allowed Huang Pei to find dozens of portraits of Princess Yuliu from the East Palace, and the paintings were unsightly, and there were... traces of filth on them!"
"The Holy Emperor was furious, but he did not lose his mind completely. Instead, he secretly summoned the prince to meet him."
"At this time, the prince, under the design of the second prince, has just learned a shocking secret. He is feeling agitated and heartbroken!"
"Master Qiao, in my dream, the fourth prince died on his fifth birthday and drowned in Yuhua Lake in Spring Garden."
"After a thorough investigation at that time, the Holy Spirit came to the conclusion that the fourth prince was playful and accidentally fell into the water.
"The prince and the queen were devastated. They blame themselves and find it difficult to accept this sad news."
"And the second prince set up a trap to let the prince know the real cause of death of the fourth prince on the day the Holy Emperor summoned him!"
