No script time travel, the general helped me rise to the top

Yangyang didn't have time to think about what Xue Qingqing meant by her last words.

The servants in the Man Mansion began to prepare for the funeral.

While everyone was busy with preparations, Yangyang stepped into the Zuo Xiang's study for the first time in many years.

In the original owner's memory, she often came here when she was very young.

At that time, she often sat on Zuo Xiang's lap to practice calligraphy. Because she was a little stupid, she would usually practice one or two characters a day.

But even so, the left prime minister never tired of teaching her.

Later, I taught her to learn poetry, to recite it sentence by sentence, to read one poem after another...

Zuo Xiang put down the pen in his hand and saw Yangyang staring at his study room with curiosity. "Yangyang! Why don't you go back and have a rest?"

Yangyang finally responded to the question from the Left Prime Minister and bowed to him.

"Father, I have something to ask you. Are you busy?"

"It's okay, sit down! Yangyang!" The left prime minister walked around the desk and sat down on the couch with Yangyang. "Yangyang, are you still worried about your father insisting on letting you go to Mobei?"

"Father," Yangyang looked at Zuo Xiang with sincerity, "My daughter is willing to go to Mobei, father, don't worry! It's just..."

"I just want to ask, why does my father insist on letting me leave and repeatedly refuse to let my sister marry the young marquis?"

Zuo Xiang turned away, seemingly unwilling to answer the question, and the air suddenly became quiet.

"My daughter, dare to guess?" Yangyang tried. No matter how Zuo Xiang reacted, she would say, "When my father came to pick up my sister that day, there were many people making trouble outside. Some of them had a piece of paper in their hands."

"Although there are many charges against my father listed above, in my opinion, they are all false accusations. I'm sure my father is not afraid of them!"

Zuo Xiang still said nothing, but just put his hand on the cup and rubbed it back and forth.

"But those charges implicitly pointed to another point, which is that my mother Jia is a descendant of the Rong Kingdom!"

At this point, Yangyang saw that the left prime minister's action of stroking the teacup in his hand suddenly stopped, and his cheek twitched slightly, "Yangyang, there are some things that your father does to protect you!"

"Yangyang knows that Gao Yuan was arrested the day before yesterday because he was collaborating with the enemy and betraying his country."

"He is close to the young marquis. If he is like this, the young marquis must be involved. So my father wanted my daughter to marry because you didn't know. Now that you know, you don't want Qingqing to marry the young marquis."

Yangyang reached out and held Zuo Xiang's hand, nodded and looked at his father calmly.

She understood that her father did not intend to be harsh on Yangyang. He had tried his best, but there were some things he simply could not say.

Yangyang then said, "And you let me go because of my mother, right?"

"Yangyang," the left prime minister held Yangyang's hand with his other hand, "your father noticed it a few days ago. You can see everything clearly. You are as smart as your mother."

"So, you don't want me to investigate Jiang's crimes any further? Is it because my mother's death not only concerns Jiang's family, but also the Rong Kingdom?"

Not only did Zuo Xiang try to stop it, but even Tang Yuwei wanted to interfere.

And that person has been pursuing something. Yangyang didn't understand it before, but when she saw Tang Yuwei chasing Jia Kuizhuo that day, she understood it.

Tang Yuwei was investigating the matter concerning the Rong Kingdom.

So I thought about what could have made him care so much and stop it again and again,

That can only be because Ji Ming and Jiang family may also be related to the Rong State!

"So, you're not afraid of your own reputation, but you're afraid of my mother being held accountable?"

Yangyang shook out all the doubts in his heart in one breath, hoping that Zuo Xiang could answer his questions and that he could help Zuo Xiang.

The left prime minister's hands twitched, and he sighed again before speaking.

"There has been a lot of impeachment against my father these days, but it all comes down to one thing: it's because I married your mother."

"But I, as a father, have never regretted this matter, so I am naturally not afraid of what others may say!"

But what? Yangyang was waiting for that but and was almost dying of anticipation.

"But the two countries were at war with each other. Although your mother was taken back to Dapu at a very young age, she remembered the old times and often exchanged letters with her relatives in Rong."

Having said that, Yangyang suddenly remembered,

That day on the boat, Jia Kuizhuo, who claimed to be his third uncle, mentioned that he had correspondence with his mother.

Yangyang listened to Zuo Xiang continue to say, "At first, your father didn't think it was a big deal, after all, they were your mother's family. But later, your great grandfather, Master Duan, found me and asked me to persuade your mother not to write to the Rong people anymore."

"Great grandfather? Why did he say that?" Speaking of this great grandfather, Yangyang had no memory of him.

It's strange. After all, they are the family that raised my mother, so why have I never heard anyone mention any dealings between the Duan family and the Xue family?

"I didn't know it at the time. Although I tried to persuade your mother, I only tried to stop at the right time, fearing that I might hurt her feelings."

"But later, your great grandfather's favorite grandson, your mother's cousin, was executed by His Majesty because of a letter. And the eldest princess was also... In short, the Duan family no longer wanted to see your mother, and your mother became depressed."

How does it involve the Princess? It's so complicated.

"What kind of letter is that? What does it have to do with my mother? And is it related to the eldest princess?"

This is even more complicated than the nesting doll game. Yangyang doesn't want to guess anymore. This is not a puzzle game.

"That letter was sent by Rong Guo. Because your mother has a good relationship with her cousin, the Duan family naturally believed that he must have been instigated by your mother to receive such a letter."

"But the truth is, your mother has been to Jinglinwei, and Jinglinwei couldn't find anything about her!"

The left minister's choice of words was indeed precise. He did not say that his mother did not know, but only that she could not find out! Yangyang understood clearly!

"So, you don't know what the content of the letter is, but your mother may know but she didn't tell you? So many years have passed, and everyone has started to suspect your mother about this matter, and even implicated you?"

Yangyang felt like he had gone around in circles but still gained nothing!

Instead, Zuo Xiang fell into deep memories.

"Yangyang, don't ask about this anymore. Your father has said everything that needs to be said. This is also for your safety!" The left prime minister stood up and walked to the door as if he was going to see someone off.

"But father, no matter what, I hope to stand on your side so that I can help you!"

"Yangyang, your father doesn't need any help from you. You just need to keep an eye on your sister and don't let her make the same mistake again!"

Yangyang can do everything, but for this matter, Yangyang feels that even if he really does it,

On the contrary, Xue Qingqing would dislike her. After all, Xue Qingqing has gone crazy and been poisoned by the young marquis.
