After rebirth, my sister always wants to be close to me
Chapter 20: Royal Secrets
Liu Yunyan sighed: "It's normal that you don't know this princess, because her identity is now a taboo in the royal family, and the emperor has even issued a death order that no one is allowed to mention this name again."
"Is it because of what happened back then?" Liu Yunfeng roughly understood something.
"Yes, she died an untimely death, and the murderer could not be found. As the king of a country, he could not even protect his own sister. Who dares to mention this?" When Liu Yunyan talked about the past, she couldn't help feeling a little sad: "When I entered the palace, I took out my mother's belongings. The emperor saw them and agreed to cancel the engagement."
Liu Yunfeng stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the bustling street: "Yan'er, is your mother the legendary woman Princess Yunxi?"
Liu Yunfeng couldn't help but clench her fingers. She was not worried about the mismatch between their status. Even though Liu Yunyan was the daughter of a princess, she was not a bad match as a young general.
It’s just that Princess Yunxi’s incident back then was too strange, and like her father’s death, it became an unsolved case. She was just worried that Yan’er would be in danger because of it.
"Yes, Princess Yunxi, a remarkable woman who was famous in the capital and stunningly beautiful throughout the world." Liu Yunyan always felt a little sad when she mentioned her mother.
Liu Yunfeng suddenly remembered that he had indeed heard this name, the peerless beauty Princess Yunxi, but she had given birth to a child out of wedlock and was still criticized to this day.
People all over the capital were speculating who the child belonged to, but in the end, nothing was found.
"Yan'er, you..." Liu Yunfeng hesitated to speak.
Liu Yunyan nodded. "Twelve years ago, at Fenglin Ferry, beside the Hanjiang Pond, I saw my mother die in front of me. My mother pushed me into the water and I escaped. I still remember how cold the water was that day. Before she died, my mother told me that if I could survive, she would let me go find Liu Zheng, the prime minister at the time, your father."
"I was pushed into the water. The current was too fast and I passed out. When I woke up again, I was lying in my father's carriage. I realized that when he and his men rushed over, it was too late. The ground was full of the bodies of the secret guards, but my mother was missing."
"So you returned to the capital to find the murderer of your mother?" Liu Yunfeng could foresee how tragic the incident was without even thinking about it. This made her feel even more sorry for Liu Yunyan, who was carrying too much responsibility.
"Well, I have seen a few of these killers. If I were to go there again, I could still recognize them. But those killers have never appeared since they came to the capital." An Wuqi and Tingfenglou have been searching, but still without any results.
Liu Yunfeng hugged Liu Yunyan distressedly: "I'm sorry Yan'er, I never knew you had been through this. Don't worry, I will definitely help you find those people and won't let them hurt you in the slightest."
No wonder although my father loves Yan'er, I can always see his respect for Yan'er. Yan'er is extremely beautiful, but she never shows her to others. It turns out that everything has a reason.
"Yan'er, there's something I don't understand." Liu Yunfeng had to resolve the doubts in his mind.
"Just tell me, sister." After telling the biggest secret to the one I love, I felt relieved. There should be no questions more difficult to answer than these secrets.
"Although Emperor Zhao is your uncle, if you marry the prince, your relationship will be even closer. Why would the emperor agree to your request to cancel the engagement?" Liu Yunfeng expressed his doubts.
Ok. . .
I forgot about this matter and it’s difficult to answer.
Liu Yunyan hesitated for a long time before speaking: "Sister, didn't you find that the emperor doesn't care about Yun Ruochu at all? Not only does he not care, he can be said to be almost harsh." He was so harsh that whenever the prince wanted to cultivate his own confidants, Emperor Zhao would cut him off immediately. This was also found out by herself later.
"After all, the prince is Emperor Zhao's own flesh and blood. It shouldn't be like this, right?" Liu Yunfeng thought about it and it seemed to be true. Judging from recent events, Emperor Zhao really did not like his own son.
"When Emperor Zhaodi was the crown prince, he was also a warlike person. Once, he encountered a sinister enemy general on the battlefield and was ambushed and accidentally injured. He had not yet married at that time. Why do you think he didn't like his own son?"
Because that's not the case at all. No one knows where this Yun Ruchu came from. Based on the relationship between the Queen and Yun Xi, she should have known about this. The only possibility is that the Queen and Emperor Zhao got Yun Ruchu from somewhere.
However, if this matter is made public, it will no longer be a simple matter. If it is not handled properly, it is very likely to damage the foundation of the country.
One can imagine how shocked Liu Yunfeng was. She had never thought about it in this way. No wonder Emperor Zhao's harem was almost empty and his offspring were so few. It seemed that the other children also had unknown origins.
Liu Yunyan smiled and said, "Poor Yun Ruochu is still dreaming of becoming the emperor?"
"That's not right, Yan'er. In the previous life, the prince did ascend the throne. I saw it with my own eyes, and didn't the system say so too?" Liu Yunfeng felt that something was wrong.
"My consciousness did not return in my previous life. The development of things may be exactly the world imagined by the author. Maybe there was no rebirth from the beginning. They just stuffed a memory into your brain."
"The invaders followed the so-called author's instructions and completed the entire plot, but when the plot was completed, everything was out of their control. Everything returned to the starting point, and my consciousness returned too."
"All scenarios are possible, but now that I'm back, it's not up to them to do whatever they want."
"I will not allow the tragedy of the past to happen again. I have my own consciousness, and no one can change it."
"The plot has now deviated from the original development, and we have the upper hand. Things are becoming more interesting."
"It's a good thing to have a closer relationship, but what if the emperor doesn't want to have a closer relationship?"
"A prince of unknown origin. The Yun family attaches great importance to bloodline. Letting Yun Ruochu become the crown prince is probably the greatest grace."
"But some people just can't see through it and always think that the position must belong to the prince."
Liu Yunfeng nodded: "Yan'er is right. The tenth day of September in the Royal Hunting Ground will be a turning point. It all depends on how the situation develops on that day."
She seemed to remember something: "The Queen's birthday is coming soon. Now that you are the county lord, I am afraid there will be many people who want to test you."
Judging from this development, Liu Yunyan is the closest child of Emperor Zhao's bloodline.
Liu Yunyan waved her hand indifferently: "That's even more interesting. I've been back for such a long time, it's time for all the evil spirits to come out and meet each other."
So many people are curious about me, I have to show up to make them feel at ease.
Recently, there has been an endless stream of people coming to the Liu Mansion, some coming to give gifts, some coming to curry favor, and some coming to test the waters.
Liu Yunyan has seen too many fickle things in the world over the years. People leave and the world becomes cold to them. All the visitors are ignored.
A few days passed like this, and the Queen's birthday was approaching. Liu Yunyan remembered that she had not prepared a gift yet, so she decided to go out for a walk to see if there was any gift that could make do.
I originally wanted to prepare something good, but now that I know who it is, there is no need to do that. Liu Yunyan has too many questions to ask her, but I don’t want to have too much interaction with her at the moment.
Liu Yunyan felt that she was now entangled in all kinds of things and really didn't want to cause any more trouble. However, although she didn't want to cause trouble, some short-sighted people didn't think so.
As soon as Liu Yunyan left the Liu Mansion, she noticed a few people following her. In order not to hurt innocent people, Liu Yunyan walked into a remote alley.
A few thugs were walking towards them. Liu Yunyan wanted to retreat, but the few hooligans behind her also went into the alley.
Well, I am surrounded.
