Chapter 428 Secrets

"The first emperor sent the princess out of the palace, but the reason is..." This matter was deeply taboo, so Nanny Gao looked around, then took a few steps forward and bowed her head in a low voice.

"The princess's background is unusual."

How can the status of the prince's daughter be ordinary. But Gao Nanny's words obviously didn't mean this, and Mu Xiyao vaguely felt that things might go beyond her expectations.

Pointing to the brocade stool in front of her and telling her to sit down, Nanny Gao saluted and thanked her, Fang Ning revealed a secret that shocked Mu Xiyao with a solemn face.

"The birth mother of the princess, the former side concubine of King An, was actually one of the two dancers sent by the prefect of Fuzhou when the late emperor visited the south in his early years."

What! Almost knocking over the teacup in hand, Mu Xiyao's beautiful eyes widened with disbelief. The woman whom Emperor Yuan Cheng had had a good fortune outside the palace married to be the side concubine of the prince? ! The head is not enough, a pair of eyes are fixed on the high mother, and the little heart is jumping up and down.

He had already guessed that the matter was not simple, but he couldn't figure it out, and the royal family Xin Mi was involved. Rubbing her forehead, Mu Xiyao sighed secretly.

There was someone more courageous than her! After climbing into the emperor's bed, how dare she go out of slavery by any means, and marry into the prince's mansion in a disguised form?

He hesitated to speak several times, no matter how curious she was about the romantic affairs of the previous generation, it was difficult for her to ask them in detail, not to mention that the ones involved were the late Emperor and King An.

The hall was silent for a while, and after pondering, Mu Xiyao had a complicated expression and frowned. "Is there someone behind her? What is the identity of that person, and what does he intend to do?"

This woman is no small matter. If an ordinary dancer had three parts of her abilities, all the aristocratic families in Shengjing would have fallen apart before long.

Surprise flashed across Gao Nanny's eyes. Your master is very keen.

"Yes, the person standing behind that person is quite related to the present. This person is the leader of the thief who was taken down by the emperor when he suppressed the rebellion in the middle of Shu a few years ago. At first, he hoped to send this woman into the palace to assassinate the late emperor secretly. .But then things changed."

Shocks followed one after another, and Mu Xiyao finally figured out why Emperor Yuan Cheng had killed chickens to make an example of monkeys, and had strictly ordered that if anyone brought up this matter again, they would be executed without mercy.

The leader of the rebel party in central Shu, his identity...isn't he Gaozong's generation, the remnant of the royal family who failed to seize the heir? This relationship is so complicated that if she didn't have a good brain, she might not be able to figure it out.

"Something went wrong?"

"Yes, after this girl was sent to bed by the late emperor, before she boarded the ship and returned to Beijing, she encountered a rare storm. The whole ship was sunk by the waves. After that, everyone searched and rescued, but they couldn't find anyone. .”

"It's a pity that the root of the disaster turned out to be fatal. Not only did he save his life, but he also met His Royal Highness King An who went to Fuzhou to seek medical treatment in the next year and concealed his identity. After several contacts between the two, it turned out to be..." Gao Nanny looked He was very uncomfortable, and there was a hint of emotion in his eyes. "We developed affection for each other."

...

Shocked too much again, Mu Xiyao thought she had nothing to say. Who is the former King An, and she also made some inquiries afterwards. Because of his poor health, this person has a soft temperament since childhood. The appearance is good, but it is a pity that he has no power.

It is such a person, marrying him is just a side concubine in the idle prince's mansion, and his status is far worse than that of the concubines in the harem of Emperor Yuan Cheng.

After thinking about it again, I am afraid that this woman has a different heart early. Otherwise, after being rescued, you shouldn't hide your name, and then you shouldn't connect with the rebel party.

Sure enough, I have courage. Being able to evade the search by both parties is a great means.

Taking a sip of the tea cup, Mu Xiyao was thoughtful.

"It's no wonder that the side concubine is said to be weak and has been taking medicine for recuperation all year round. She was able to stay in the palace for a long time without seeing outsiders. How did her identity be exposed in the end? The former emperor and the empress dowager agreed to the prince's request back then, so they must have not realized that this place is unusual. She can keep this secret secret until it is brought into the ground, so she will not be careless to leave future troubles."

Nanny Gao nodded slightly, the woman's abilities had to be said to be very powerful. "Her identity was exposed, which happened to be related to the assassination case that day. Among them, the old slave Zizi knew very little, only that the guard who assassinated that day was bought by nobleman Tian in the palace. Afterwards, the palace where nobleman Tian lived was sealed up by the guards. Mr. Tian Noble is the secret work of the rebel party. As for how to get involved in that old incident, it is not the old slave who can find out."

After all, things still can't be fully figured out, and Mu Xiyao has no regrets. After all, Nanny Gao is only the confidant of the ancestor, and it is not easy to discover so many secrets.

Weiyang, oh Weiyang, with such a life experience, she was able to survive. King An begs? Mu Xiyao laughed secretly to herself.

When he rolled his eyes, his eyes suddenly became bright. "If I remember wrongly, when King An was seriously ill, he went to the court with his illness and handed over a memorial. The memorial asks the late emperor to take back the fief, and voluntarily confiscates all the private properties of the palace to pay for the troops stationed in Mobei."

Prince An is mediocre, but Concubine An was born in the leading imperial merchant family in the Great Wei Dynasty. The wealth of the palace can be seen.

This incident was heard in the streets and alleys, everyone praised An Wang Gaoyi, and Emperor Yuan Cheng praised him even more. Thinking about it now, I'm afraid it was the woman behind her back who made Wang An such a big name. Once this plan comes out, it kills two birds with one stone. More, it is to make plans for Wei Young after An Wang's death.

"This woman is astute in her calculations." With dignified and meticulous work, the palace has been safe and sound for so many years, but how could Princess An be able to take her life after the death of King An?

Mu Xiyao had to say that if there was such a woman in Zong Zhenglin's harem who could pinch and count, her life might not be as happy as it is now.

When King An passed away, everyone will go to the palace to pay their respects. When Yu Jia came in person, whether the emperor could remember her or not was second to none. Back then, Gu Changde personally arranged for her to stay in bed and return to Beijing. If that person sees something wrong, wouldn't it be in vain for her to plan for Wei Young.

Rather than take the risk, it is better to follow the plan. If she dies, she can still drag Princess An, the woman who has suppressed her all her life, along with her. Such a poisonous mind!

"The first emperor was moved by King An's deeds. After discussing with the Empress Dowager Jin, he took Princess Weiyang into the palace for education. Everyone knew about this, and even in the future, even if they learned of her biological mother's crimes, they could only hide this scandal secretly. Keep it under cover. Wei Young will save her life." Mu Xiyao murmured in a low voice.

Nanny Gao's eyebrows twitched, your master didn't need her to say more, he already figured out the whole story by himself. This mind is also extremely powerful. At the beginning, she was standing behind the old ancestor, holding her breath and concentrating, terrified. It was she and another nun who arranged secretly to send Princess Weiyang away from the capital.

Emperor Cheng of the Yuan Dynasty sent an orphan girl from Weiyang to Yangzhou to raise her in Wangque Nunnery. It can be seen that even if she did not take her life under multiple concerns, she was extremely disliked.

"Mama risked her life to tell this palace today, is it to prevent the princess from entering the palace, right?"

Seeing that she did not hesitate, nor was she afraid of being punished, she simply admitted, Mu Xiyao lowered her eyes for a moment, and boldly guessed. "This matter is secret, even the empress dowagers and the emperor don't know about it?"

"Only the late emperor, the old ancestors, the old slaves, and the deceased Ruan Nanny knew about this matter. Long live Lord was still young at that time, so he couldn't be the master. The two ladies saw that the late emperor's expression was disturbed, and they learned of the ban. Where are you?" Dare to ask more."

Before she knew it, she raised her eyebrows, Mu Xiyao looked at Madam Gao meaningfully. "The old ancestor is benevolent."

Nanny Gao's back stiffened, her eyes darkened.

Sure enough... twisting her neck, Mu Xiyao supported her waist and stood up slowly. "Mammy followed me to the yard for a walk. After sitting for a long time, my whole body hurts a lot."
