Inside the Jiyue Palace, there was deathly silence.
No one said a word, including Concubine Xian and Yun Kai, mother and son. But when Yun Qi also stood up and wanted to take Bai Yanqing with him, Concubine Xian became anxious!
"Miss Bai! The eldest prince! Wait!"
Before Bai Yanqing stepped out of Jiyue Palace, Concubine Xian could no longer hold back! She opened her mouth and stopped Bai Yanqing and Yun Qi!
Bai Yanqing turned her head and looked at Yun Qi, and Yun Qi looked at her in the same way! The two of them raised their lips in tacit understanding, with their backs to Concubine Xian!
"That's all, now that the matter is over, I have nothing to hide anymore!"
Concubine Xian suddenly spoke, her words filled with helplessness and compromise!
Bai Yanqing raised her eyebrows, then turned around as if nothing had happened, and sat back down leisurely under the gaze of Concubine Xian!
"You should have... met her, right? My sister, Qingluan!"
Concubine Xian sat down dejectedly, looking at something with empty eyes. It was obvious that she was trapped in some memories!
Qingluan?
Concubine Xian's words shocked everyone present except Yun Kai!
Xiyue looked at Concubine Xian in disbelief, as if...she had told a joke!
"Back then, I did not intentionally leave Emperor Xingxu behind! Nor did I enter the palace because I was greedy for glory and wealth!"
Concubine Xian suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Yunqi!
This glance made Yun Qi jump with fear. He vaguely felt that this matter seemed to have some inexplicable relationship with him!
But the next moment, Concubine Xian told the story!
"Everything...all started because I met Queen An!"
As soon as Concubine Xian opened her mouth, she once again shocked everyone present!
Queen An?
How many secrets does Queen An, who has passed away for many years, hide in her body? !
Bai Yanqing raised her eyes and looked at Yun Qi! At this moment, Yun Qi's face not only showed shock, but also deliberately suppressed grief!
Looking at Yun Kai, his eyes were also filled with shock! Perhaps even Yun Kai might not know the inside story of these things!
"Queen An and Mrs. Ji are my benefactors. They...gave me hope of rebirth!"
Concubine Xian glanced at the juniors in the hall, sighed slightly, and then told what happened back then!
It turns out that the Concubine Xian in front of her is exactly as Bai Yanqing guessed. Her true identity is Mrs. Qingluan's sister - Hongluan!
Back then, Hongluan took Lingyu and the infant Caixing and fled to the Chen Kingdom with all their might!
Earlier, when she was in Xingyue Kingdom, Hong Luan had heard Xin Wan Ning mention that Ji Jinchu, the daughter of Ji Zheng, the general of the Chen Kingdom, had been Xin Wan Ning's good friend! Therefore, after Hong Luan fled to the Chen Kingdom, his first thought was to go to the capital of the Chen Kingdom, find the Ji family, and ask for Ji Jinchu's help!
But when Hongluan arrived in the capital, he heard that Ji Jinchu had married into the house of Bai Jingxuan, the prime minister of the Chen Kingdom! The Bai Mansion was different from the Ji Mansion. At that time, Hongluan tried many methods but could not meet Ji Jinchu!
But just at this moment, the house leaked and it rained all night! The pursuers sent by Xin Wanrong to kill Hong Luan and Cai Xing have arrived again! Hong Luan had no choice but to hastily settle Ling Yu, then hugged the infant Cai Xing and ran away with all her life!
Maybe God has a good eye, Hong Luan ran to the back alley of Bai Mansion when he was escaping! It was at that time that she met Ji Jinchu!
After Ji Jinchu married into the White House, although her husband and wife were loving and harmonious, there was a mischievous mother-in-law - Mrs. Ren! As a result, Ji Jinchu was often depressed! For this reason, Ji Jinchu would often sneak out through the back door of Bai Mansion to hide away! It was also a coincidence that as soon as she slipped to the back door that time, she saw Hong Luan holding Cai Xing!
Ji Jin had never seen Hongluan before, so naturally he didn't know who she was! Hong Luan has never met Ji Jinchu, and of course she doesn't know that this beautiful woman with her hair neatly tied up is Ji Jinchu's!
Ji Jinchu was a bold person by nature, and she hated those things the most.
What an injustice! She saw the girl in front of her, holding a baby girl in her arms, hiding and hiding several times, in a state of embarrassment, and it seemed like she was in danger! Therefore, Ji Jinchu made an immediate decision. She opened the back door and hid Hongluan in the Bai Mansion!
It was precisely because of this chance encounter that Ji Jinchu met Hongluan, and learned from Hongluan that the baby girl in her arms was none other than Xingxu, the daughter of Xin Wanning, an old friend of Xingyue Kingdom!
Ji Jinchu immediately decided to keep the baby girl! Her thought was that it was really inconvenient for Hong Luan to run away with the baby girl! For one thing, it’s because I’m afraid of hurting the child! Secondly, for Hong Luan, this baby girl is also a burden! How much will it slow down Hongluan's escape! Of course, there is a more important point, that is, this baby girl is the daughter of Ji Jinchu's old friend. She is also afraid that this baby girl will be assassinated again!
Hong Luan hid in the Bai Mansion for two days until Ji Jinchu's people returned to report that they were pursuers from the Xingyue Kingdom, but Hong Luan was not found. Now, he has withdrawn from the capital! After hearing the news, Hong Luan left the Bai Mansion with confidence! After all, there is Lingyu outside, waiting for Hongluan!
So Hong Luan left the baby girl in Bai Mansion and went to find Ling Yu alone!
Because Ji Jinchu's people had been secretly protecting Hongluan, Hongluan and Lingyu spent a period of time safely in the capital of Chen Kingdom!
Hearing this, Bai Yanqing didn't think there was anything strange. After all, she had some vague impression of what Concubine Xian said! She vaguely remembered that when she was very young, there was a woman who stayed in Nianchu Xiaozhu for two days with a child in her arms! Later, she didn’t remember it!
Bai Yanqing was so young at that time that she couldn't even remember the woman's voice and appearance!
Later, Ji Jinchu came to Bai Yanqing with Cai Xing in his arms and said to her, "Yan Qing, from now on, she will be your sister! You must protect her!"
Bai Yanqing still remembers these words until now!
"Then...how did the imperial concubine enter the palace?"
Bai Yanqing looked at Concubine Xian who was lost in memories and asked slowly.
"That's because...Later, Emperor Wanrong learned that Sister Qingluan gave birth to a son for Chu Aotian! But her own daughter was stillborn! Perhaps, old and new hatreds came together. Together, she searched for the famous assassin from Anyan Tower to assassinate us again!"
Looking back on what happened back then, it is still vivid in my mind.
At that time, Hong Luan and Ling Yu, who had finally had a peaceful life for some time, were hunted down by assassins again and had nowhere to hide! Hongluan had no choice but to find Ji Jinchu again!
The world is so big that there is no place for Hongluan and Lingyu to stand! Thinking about it, it’s very sad and ironic!
It is easy to hide a child, but it is very difficult to hide an adult like Hongluan! After all, those assassins all have portraits of Hong Luan! Even if Hong Luan fled to the ends of the earth, he would not be able to escape An Yan Lou's pursuit!
Coincidentally, during that period, he was in poor health successively, and Xuan Jijin first entered the palace to attend to his illness. It was precisely because of this incident that Ji Jinchu suddenly had the idea to dress up Hong Luan as a maid in the Bai Mansion and brought Hong Luan into the palace of Chen Kingdom!
Who would have thought that the dignified female official of Xingyue Kingdom would willingly stoop to the position of maid and accompany Ji Jinchu into the palace of Chen Kingdom?
After Hong Luan accompanied Ji Jinchu into the palace, she really did everything a maid should do! She stayed by Queen An's bedside day and night, wiping her body and changing her clothes... She was so meticulous and considerate that even Queen An's personal maids could not compare to her!
After much thought, Ji Jinchu finally told Queen An about Hong Luan's true identity! He also explained the ins and outs of the matter one by one!
After much thought, Queen An decided to help Ji Jinchu and Hongluan, so she kept Hongluan in the palace in the name of Hongluan's service to the queen!
Queen An is in charge of the huge harem, so it is not difficult to accept a mere maid! As a result, Hong Luan was able to stay in the palace smoothly!
After Ji Jinchu returned home, he secretly sent someone to spread the news to Hua Wenyuan! Guided Hua Wenyuan to successfully find Ling Yu! Since then, Ling Yu has lived with Hua Wenyuan!
"My little girl has something unclear, and I hope your concubine will clarify her confusion!"
Bai Yanqing suddenly spoke, interrupting Concubine Xian's memories!
"you say!"
At this moment, Concubine Xian has a gentle face, as if she has shed all her fatigue!
"Why did the empress let Lingyu poison Caixing, also known as Xingxu, back then?"
Bai Yanqing has always been worried about Hongluan poisoning Cai Xing. She didn't understand that Hong Luan was so loyal to Xin Wan Ning and risked her life to protect Xin Wan Ning's daughter, but why was she willing to kill Cai Xing?
Hearing this, Concubine Xian was stunned for a long time.
"But now, isn't the poison already on Kai'er and Xiyue? If we look into the past, it doesn't seem that important anymore!"
Concubine Xian sighed softly and spoke slowly.
"No, it's important! It's important to both the little girl and Cai Xing! Cai Xing was just a girl who didn't know anything back then. She got this poison because of you!"
As an innocent child, Bai Yanqing really couldn't understand why Hong Luan wanted to bewitch Cai Xing back then!
"Hey... Xingyue Kingdom's Concentric Gu not only has the effect of controlling people's hearts, but it also has the effect of finding people! At that time, I was afraid that something would happen to the little Emperor Ji, so I thought of putting the mother Gu on her body. So that in the future, I and Her Majesty the Queen can find her smoothly! To avoid... being impersonated by someone who is interested!"
At that time, Concubine Xian was just worried that there would be bad guys who would pretend to be Caixing and return to Xingyue Kingdom, so she took this trick!
"Then why did you...infect the third prince with male Gu again?"
If it was said that placing the mother's poison on Cai Xing was a last resort, then why did Concubine Xian put the male's poison on Yun Ji?
"The male poison on the third prince was not cast by me! It was... cast one after another!"
Now that the matter was out of the way, Concubine Xian felt that there was no need for her to hide it anymore!
"What? You said it was the Queen Mother...the Queen Mother gave the poison to the third brother? Why?!"
Now that the words have reached this point, Yunqi can't sit still anymore! He never imagined that the poison on Yun Ji's body was actually inflicted by his mother herself!
"Back then, I told you all the things! When you learned that I still had a male Gu in your hand, you asked me to give the male Gu to her! I also asked me to ask for the male Gu. She wants to use a poison method! Back then, I didn’t know that she wanted to put this male poison on the third prince!”
The noble concubine’s eyebrows were furrowed, and she was deeply moved when she recalled the past events at this moment!
"The third prince...are his biological children one after another?"
Hearing this, Bai Yanqing suddenly had a whim and asked such a sentence, which could scare people to death! Because Bai Yanqing really couldn't figure out how any mother could be so cruel as to poison her own son!
"Of course the third brother is my biological brother from the same mother!"
When Yun Qi heard Bai Yanqing's words, he immediately spoke up and confirmed Yun Ji's identity!
If that's the case, then why did he poison his own son one after another?
Yun Qi and Bai Yanqing both looked at Concubine Xian. Maybe...she knows the answer!
"Actually... I don't know very well! But before she passed away, she told me that she hoped that her son would stay away from the court and away from disputes. I hope that you can live in peace and happiness!"
Concubine Xian's gentle tone instantly soothed the sadness in Yunqi's heart.
