The eldest princess was so stimulated that she felt confused and refused to let go of the young man for a moment.
Bai Yu had no choice but to tap her sleeping point quietly and let her take a nap. She might recover when she woke up.
Instructing the maid to help the person back to the room, the second princess sat back on her chair, her mouth full of bitterness, "For decades, our Xiling royal family has been clean at home and friendly to the outside world. How come we attract jackals and encounter so many disasters!
The eldest of the three sisters got married the earliest. When her first child died in infancy, we didn’t realize it and thought it was an accident. The eldest sister once blamed herself for not being in good health, so she drank medicine for two whole years to recuperate her body. The medicine tasted as bitter as coptis. She drank it three times a day without blinking, looking forward to it. Two children, unexpectedly died again...
The eldest sister collapsed at that time and began to look crazy. We also began to have doubts at that time, but no matter how we checked, we could not find anything suspicious.
Then it was my turn, and my eldest son also died at birth. At this time, I couldn't deceive myself anymore. It is true that there are always people secretly harming me, the heir of the Xiling Royal Family! That kind of pain and hatred, I wish I could kill the nine murderers in Lingchi!
The eldest sister and I were both frightened by the successive blows and pains we suffered, and we were too afraid to have any more children.
The father and mother were already old at that time, so this blow was more fatal to them, and they could not survive two years. "
Recalling the past, the second princess's eyes were scarlet red, the pain of losing her son was overwhelming, and she was filled with hatred.
Everyone listened to this secret in silence. Even if they didn't experience it personally, they could still imagine the cruelty and pain.
Tianbao pursed her lips and asked, "Where is the Queen at that time?"
The second princess wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, and now she showed a trace of happiness, "The third sister has been talented and willful since she was a child, and she doesn't like the restraint of the royal family. When she was eighteen years old, the Beixiang royal family sent envoys to propose the two countries I chose her for marriage. The third sister was not happy. After attending my wedding, she ran away with a package and a sword. She left for two years. In these two years, the eldest sister suffered the loss of her second daughter. Third son, I lost my eldest son. My father refused Beixiang’s proposal of marriage because the Xiling royal family did not marry foreigners. Then my father and mother became seriously ill one after another... By the time the third sister got the news and rushed back, the Xiling royal family was at the end of its fight. .”
The words stopped here, and the second princess turned to look out the window, tears welling up in her eyes again.
The third sister came back and saved her only daughter. She was appointed to succeed the throne when the crisis was critical, and stabilized the turmoil of the courtiers and the country, allowing Xiling to continue to stand as a great country.
And what Sanmei gave up for this was her own life.
Separated from loved ones and children.
Although they are very close, mother and son cannot recognize each other.
Although she and her eldest sister experienced all kinds of pain, fortunately, they had their third sister to protect and care for them for the rest of their lives.
But what about the third sister? Who will protect and take care of the third sister?
She could only support herself alone.
The third sister is carrying the heaviest weight.
"You have finished what you came to Xiling to do, and you will be leaving soon, right?" After withdrawing her thoughts, the second princess looked at the children who were sitting quietly, and said with a smile, "Let me know when you decide to leave, and I will give it to you. See you off. Just keep it a secret from the eldest sister, otherwise you may not be able to leave. "
Tianbao nodded, "We will leave as soon as Grandpa Po is healed."
Bai Yu didn't speak, his eyes were lowered, not knowing what he was thinking.
…
After leaving the eldest princess's mansion and no one around, Feng Hongqiang asked the questions in her heart.
"Mom, why don't you keep your cousin and the others around more?"
The second princess smiled bitterly, even though there was no one else around in her mansion, she still lowered her voice and spoke, "Xiling seems to be peaceful, but secretly it is actually full of dangers. The murderer who killed the royal heirs has been hidden for so many years, and no one knows what he is. It will pop up again when the time comes. It is best for your cousin and the others to leave for safety. Only when he is well can your aunt have the strength to continue to support you. Hong Qiang, Yu'er is not only your aunt's child, but also your aunt's and mine's child. children."
Feng Hongqiang bit her lip and nodded, "Mom, I understand."
"You have been sensible since you were a child and have a strict mouth. Only my mother dared to tell you this-"
"Don't worry, Mom, I'm the last one to know the truth. Dad won't know, and neither will Liu Hanzhi. Anyone who dares to harm my brother is harming me!"
The second princess held her daughter in her arms, resting her head on her daughter's equally weak shoulder, her tears soaking into the fabric of her clothes.
So they couldn't force Yu'er to stay, it was for his own good to let him go.
...but after meeting each other and then facing farewell, they are still so sad, how painful should the third sister be?
Her third sister was in pain and sad. She could only hide and lick her wounds. She couldn't even find anyone to talk to!
…
After the Queen returned to the palace, she immediately issued an edict to impose martial law at all the prefectures and gateways of the entire Xiling Mausoleum. In order to hunt down and apprehend the thieves who stole the Imperial Mausoleum, the people entering and leaving the Imperial Mausoleum and doing business were strictly inspected.
Chu Tianxing was silenced, and the iron man he concocted was also transported away. Fortunately, it was only one day before the incident happened, and those people must still be on the shore of Xiling.
A strict investigation may not be able to successfully uncover those people, but similarly, it is not that easy for the other party to leave Xiling smoothly.
In the blink of an eye, at the beginning of September, the injury on the old man's shoulder was completely healed, and Tianbao and his party were about to leave.
The moon was full when they came, but now it has turned into a quarter moon, hanging in the black and blue sky deserted.
The eldest princess's mansion gradually became quiet, and the lights everywhere were gradually extinguished.
In the guest room of Nanyuan, Tianbao stood quietly against the window. After a moment, he flashed and climbed onto the roof.
When he saw the young man in white lying lazily on the roof, he was not surprised.
She walked over and sat down next to the young man, and looked up at the moon with him, "Is the eldest princess asleep?"
"Well, I am too old to be sleepy, so I fell asleep after being coaxed." Bai Yu smiled and said it lightly.
"unwilling?"
"Nonsense, why should I be reluctant? This is just a stop on our journey. The whole world is waiting for us to travel."
Tianbao threw a fruit to him and gnawed one himself. His face was pale and he said, "He has the toughest mouth ever since he was little."
Bai Yu, "..."
"Tianbao, you're wrong. My mouth has the hardest teeth. The bones are harder than the teeth."
In exchange for a beating from the girl.
Bai Yu gnawed on the fruit and chuckled.
After eating the fruit and throwing away the core, Tianbao lay back with his head on the pillow and his arms, looking at the crescent moon and cold stars above his head, "I can cure Feng Hongqiang's infertility."
It took a while before the young man's words came, "It is not necessarily a good thing to be cured. It will only make her repeat the pain that her elders have experienced."
Only by finding out the murderers behind the scenes and dealing with them can the royal family of Xiling truly be at peace.
Otherwise, it would be worse than now.
"Who do you think it is?" Tianbao tilted his head and asked.
"Beixiang is the most suspicious, but the clues left by Chu Tianxing when he died make me unsure."
"Do you want to take care of it?"
Bai Yu also tilted his head at this time, staring at the girl, with a trace of confusion and hesitation in his eyes, "Tianbao, I don't know."
The girl raised her hand and flicked the center of his eyebrows, flicking away the wrinkles there, just like he did to her in the past, "When you are confused, just do what you want."
