After Rong Guogong and his eldest son Liu Huanping finished washing and rested for a while, they calmed down and went to the main courtyard together.
When Liu Yue saw her brother and nephew coming, she went to the workshop in person to invite the crazy grandpa.
When Crazy Grandpa is not busy, he will go to the workshop and play two games with Mr. Li. The two of them are very at odds with each other.
After inviting the crazy grandpa, Zi Yi stood guard at the door of the study while Lan Yi returned to the capital.
"Brother, Lian Sheng's surname is Su and his given name is Su Zhao. He is the only bloodline left by Marquis Jingyuan."
As soon as Liu Yue's words came out, Rong Guogong Liu Rufeng jumped up in surprise, and even Liu Huanping's expression changed.
Although he was young and didn't know what happened more than ten years ago, his father mentioned to him in private what happened to Marquis Jingyuan back then.
Liu Rufeng looked at Crazy Grandpa, who nodded with a smile.
It turns out that the crazy grandpa is Mr. Wu Zhong, the counselor beside Marquis Jingyuan!
After the murder of the Marquis, the men in black bloodbathed the Marquis's mansion, and the Holy Lord, Prince Xin, risked his life to deliver a message to the mansion.
However, the man in black moved too quickly. After Mrs. Hou entrusted the young master to Mr. Wu, the man in black arrived.
Mr. Wu and the young master fought desperately to get out.
The captain of the guard was also killed together, and the man in black kept chasing him. The group of people hid in Tibet for three months.
In order to preserve the only bloodline left by the Marquis, the captain of the guard had no choice but to kidnap the begging grandson and grandson, and disguised themselves as Mr. Wu and the young master.
Mr. Wu and the young master were able to escape, but the head guard and the pair of grandfather and grandson died at the hands of the man in black.
Later, Mr. Wu took Lian Sheng away from home incognito, and finally settled in Linxian County, where he met Liu Anan by chance.
Liu Anan rescued Lian Sheng, who was dizzy due to fever and was knocked unconscious on the street.
"The Duke must have known what happened next."
Crazy Grandpa told the whole story.
After hearing this, Liu Rufeng bowed and said solemnly: "Rufeng thanks Uncle Wu for saving Lian Sheng."
Crazy Grandpa and Liu Yue suddenly felt at ease. It seemed that their elder brother (Guo Gongye) recognized Lian Sheng.
"Uncle Wu, when something happened to the Marquis, I had just entered the official position, so I still don't know what happened back then."
"But my father once returned home and lost his temper. He stayed in the study for a day and a night. I asked my father about it, and he only said that the Holy Father was getting more and more confused. This must be what he was talking about."
Crazy Grandpa nodded, "At that time, many ministers in the court complained about Lord Hou, but the late emperor did not listen. Old Duke Rong also wrote several times and was scolded by the late emperor. I heard that he was fined for a year. Salary."
Liu Yue sneered at the side, "I didn't expect him to do some human work!"
Crazy Grandpa and Liu Rufeng were both stunned after hearing this.
Liu Rufeng shook her head helplessly. It seemed that it was difficult for her sister to open her heart, and it was the same for herself, wasn't she?
Although the Qi family was punished, their mother was gone, and their sister and niece had suffered for ten years. They couldn't let go of it in just one or two words.
Crazy Grandpa said slowly: "Ms. An An, to be honest, the old Duke was also a leader among his peers back then. He has always been a role model for literati and has made great contributions to Da Qi. The title of Duke Rong is not empty, but the old The Duke is really confused in the inner chamber."
"Yue'er, my father regrets it very much now. After the Da Qi clan was punished, An An threw their bodies into the mountains. My father invited several clan elders to come, opened an ancestral hall, and crossed out the Da Qi clan from the ancestral tree."
"The Daqi clan has been demoted to a concubine and is not qualified to be listed in the family tree. Liu Rujiang is also a concubine now. As long as he does not commit suicide, I will spare his life. But with his temperament, he can commit suicide himself."
"I know that my father also wants to save his life. After all, Liu Rujiang is the child he has loved for many years, and the two boys around him are mine."
"But he is very honest now. He is afraid that An An will kill him. He is no longer as arrogant as before."
Liu Yue started to smile a little after hearing this.
"Ms. An'an, the old Duke did make a mistake. This mistake is really too big. It's a pity for the old Duke and his wife. But we can still live our lives. We have to look forward. You don't have to forgive him, but you can't always forgive him. Live with hatred.”
Crazy Grandpa didn’t ask Liu Yue to forgive Liu Cheng.
After all, he shouldn't persuade others to be kind unless they have suffered, but he didn't want Liu Yue to live with hatred all the time.
What's more, the word "filial piety" is greater than heaven.
Crazy Grandpa also doesn’t want Liu Yue to be criticized by people who don’t know the truth.
Liu Rufeng naturally understood what Uncle Wu was thinking.
After thinking for a while, he added: "After the incident, An An also went to see his father. His father cried. He asked An An to forgive him."
"But An'an said, you hurt me and you want me to forgive you. How can there be such truth in the world? I came to see you just to show you that I am living a good life now."
Liu Rufeng sighed, "The child was hurt too deeply."
Liu Yue pursed her lips and said nothing.
Liu Rufeng himself could not forgive his father, and he could not ask his sister and niece to let go of everything.
After this incident, his father was also severely hit. Now his father can be said to have betrayed all his relatives. Isn't this a punishment for him?
There is no punishment in the world more severe than the tragic death of the first wife and the separation of the children!
Duke Rong Guo said to Crazy Grandpa again: "The day before yesterday, I received news from Rong Jue from Beijing on the road. He arranged for someone to go to Chu Rui's camp. This person stayed with Lian Sheng to protect him."
"In addition, the Rong family has joined forces with the Chu family to eradicate all the Li family's influence in the general. After I return to Beijing, I will also unite with some ministers in the DPRK to suppress the Li family's influence in the DPRK."
"Since An'an and Liansheng's two children like each other, I will naturally protect this child."
After hearing this, Crazy Grandpa's face lit up with joy, he stood up and bowed deeply, "Wu Zhong thanked Duke Rong on behalf of my Marquis and Madam."
"Uncle Wu, you don't have to be polite."
"By the way, Uncle Wu, are there still people in the Marquis's old department?" Liu Rufeng asked.
He knew that not only was the Marquis Jingyuan's mansion gone, but even the Marquis' close subordinates had been poisoned by the Li family.
Crazy Grandpa sighed, "To be honest with you, Lord, the Emperor has eyes. It is true that several of the Marquis's subordinates were rescued back then, but they are far away from the capital."
"Can I meet these people? Now that we have begun to clear some obstacles for Lien Sheng to file a petition in the future, we have to learn more about the situation back then."
Crazy Grandpa nodded, "They are now in the valley of Dawang Mountain. The head of Sanshe Village in Dawang Mountain was also a subordinate of the Marquis. When will the Duke go?"
"Leaving in a quarter of an hour!"
Rong Guogong Liu Rufeng didn't want to waste time, and the Marquis' men were about to take action. In fact, he didn't know that Lian Sheng had already begun to make plans.
Crazy Grandpa immediately got up and went to prepare.
Liu Yue knew that the matter was of great importance, so she naturally hoped that Liansheng's father would be vindicated as soon as possible.
Liu Rufeng hesitated for a moment, then said: "Yue'er, Rong Jue's past ten years have not been easy. He is a victim just like you."
"Rong Shu was sent away. Master Rong used the secret medicine. Now she is just an ordinary peasant child and does not remember any past. This is also a good thing for her. After all, she has such a mother."
"An An now lives in Rong Mansion, and she has accepted Rong Jue."
"Sister, a person's life is only a few decades. In the Rong family's genealogy, you are still Rong Jue's wife. Please think about it carefully."
After saying that, Liu Rufeng took Liu Huanping and left the study.
Liu Yue sat there quietly. An An's letter made it very clear, but she could never get over the hurdle in her heart. After all, she had been in the Wang family for ten years.
Rong Jue is a man, and she is a woman. There are many injustices to women in this world, and she does not want Rong Mansion to be criticized because of her.
Forget it, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, Liu Yue doesn't want to think about this anymore.
Crazy Grandpa, Rong Guogong Liu Rufeng, and Crown Prince Liu Huanping rode out of Kaoshan Village on fast horses and headed straight for Sanshe Village.
