Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country

The sky gradually darkened. Lin Yushu stood beside Nan Rongjing, with her head only reaching his chin. The two shadows behind them were stretched longer and longer by the setting sun, overlapping each other as if they were leaning against each other.

Lin Yushu also looked at the waxing moon gradually rising in the sky with a calm expression.

She knew Nan Rongjing's character. In order to find a way to survive, he would move forward courageously, just like she was in this life.

but……

"Your Majesty will not agree to this."

The night breeze was slightly cool. Nan Rongjing took off his black cloak with gold weaving and gently draped it over Lin Yushu's shoulders.

"Old Master Shen only knows the beginning and the end of what happened back then. Only Prince Jin knows what happened in between. I must find him to find out."

Lin Yushu was a little dazed. She vaguely remembered that in her previous life, before Nan Huaishuo ascended the throne, Nan Rongjing also suddenly disappeared from the capital. It was not until the third year after Nan Huaishuo ascended the throne that he led troops back from Youzhou to kill him.

At that time, did he also travel thousands of miles to Youzhou in order to seek the truth?

However, why did Nan Rongjing rebel in his previous life?

No matter how sinister and vicious Nan Huaishuo was, after he took over, he would be the legitimate heir to the royal family. Anyone who started an uprising would be a traitor and must be killed by anyone.

Lin Yushu vaguely remembered that before Nan Huaishuo was killed by Nan Rongjing, he had called him a traitor who intended to usurp the throne.

Nan Rongjing replied at that time: "I am not interested in the throne, but I don't want to see the people who provoke me live well. It's not pleasant."

How did Nan Huaishuo offend Nan Rongjing?

According to her memories from her previous life, she did not remember Nan Huaishuo having provoked this Jade-faced King of Hell, and he did not dare to provoke him.

In this life, if she hadn't used the antidote as a bargaining chip, Nan Rongjing wouldn't have targeted Nan Huaishuo.

So, what kind of grudges did they have that made Nan Rongjing go to such lengths to rebel?

Lin Yushu thought about it carefully and figured that if Nan Huaishuo really had annoyed Nan Rongjing unintentionally, it was most likely after he ascended the throne when Nan Rongjing was not in the capital.

Otherwise, Nan Rongjing would have taken revenge on the spot and would not have waited until Nan Huaishuo ascended the throne before leading his troops back from afar.

What did Nan Huaishuo do after ascending the throne?

Lin Yushu kept thinking, and finally caught a glimpse of a glimmer of truth in her foggy memories. But before she could figure it out, she was awakened from her thoughts by Nan Rongjing.

"Are you worried about me? Don't worry, as long as I claim to be sick and don't go out, the Imperial Guards in the capital will be handed over to Mu Shang for a while, and nothing will go wrong."

Lin Yushu came back to her senses. Many things had changed in this life because of her appearance. Even Nan Rongjing's trip to Youzhou had been advanced by several years. She was indeed worried.

Everything was changing, and she had lost her prophetic edge.

"It's a long way to Youzhou. Even if you travel day and night without stopping, it will take more than half a month to reach Youzhou."

Nan Rongjing couldn't help but raise his hand and touch Lin Yushu's forehead, which was illuminated by the last ray of sunlight and was golden, bright and warm, just as Lin Yushu appeared in his heart.

"In one month, I will return to Beijing on time."

Lin Yushu still felt uneasy, but she couldn't tell where the uneasiness came from. After thinking about it again and again, she remembered a neglected detail.

"Do you remember the fireworks on Saint's birthday?"

The fireworks for the Saint's Birthday Festival were tampered by Nan Huaishuo. In order to label Lin Yushu as a witch who brought disaster to the country, Nan Huaishuo added gray Gu into the fireworks. Gray Gu is a common and non-lethal Gu insect, but it is unique to the East Witch Kingdom and few people in the Great Zhou know about it.

Nan Rongjing's expression was calm, still staring at the gradually setting sun in the distance, and after a moment he let out a slight sigh.

"I remember."

Lin Yushu was stunned. She understood that Nan Rongjing had always remembered it, but she was the one who neglected it.

"You went out of your way not to remind me?"

"With the prince's current health, he can only live for another year or two, but he can only stay in bed. Nan Heying was also executed, so now Nan Huaishuo can easily win over a large number of court officials without using any means."

Even though they had previously worked hard to pull out most of Nan Huaishuo's minions.

Now the only candidate for the position of crown prince has suddenly become the once unknown Nan Huaishuo. He can be said to have taken advantage of the right time, right place and right people, and is reaping the benefits.

"That's right. He only needs to wait for the Crown Prince to pass away, and then he can easily take over the remaining forces in the Crown Prince's hands."

Lin Yushu had to admit that Nan Heying's execution after treason had completely changed the trend of the fight for the throne.

Originally, after the death of the prince in the previous life, Nan Huaishuo and Nan Heying fought for a long time before finally winning narrowly. However, the chain changes caused by her rebirth in this life actually provided convenience for Nan Huaishuo.

Lin Yushu could not have anticipated Nan Heying's rebellion, nor did she expect the prince to fall ill so early, otherwise she would never have let Nan Huaishuo take advantage.

Nan Huaishuo's power has suddenly increased. Even Nan Rongjing cannot confront him head-on, let alone Lin Yushu. Therefore, Nan Rongjing does not want Lin Yushu to show up at this time.

Lin Yushu was touched. She understood Nan Rongjing's good intentions, but to her nothing was more important than revenge.

As long as Nan Huaishuo is still alive and has the possibility of ascending to the throne, she and her family will definitely not be safe.

Lin Yushu knew Nan Huaishuo. He was scheming and narrow-minded. In his eyes, she and her father and brother were all ungrateful people. Since they could not be used by him, he would definitely eliminate their family when he was able.

Even though their family had served Nan Huaishuo obediently in their previous life, they still aroused Nan Huaishuo's jealousy because of their great power. In the end, the whole family, including her maternal grandfather's family, were killed by him, which shows how cruel and ruthless Nan Huaishuo was.

“Even if our family stops making things difficult for Nan Huaishuo, he won’t let us go.”

How could Nan Rongjing not know this? He just hoped that nothing would happen to Lin Yushu during the month he was away in Youzhou.

"Promise me that whatever you want to do, you'll do it when I get back."

Lin Yushu clenched her fingers and held Nan Rongjing's broad palm tightly. The closed high wall built by hatred in her heart collapsed little by little and slowly became soft.

"Okay, I promise you."

Nan Rongjing watched Lin Yushu return home before turning around and leaving.

Lin Yushu looked back at his receding figure and sighed slightly. She would not do anything rash, but that didn't mean Nan Huaishuo would do the same.

She still remembered what Lin Xuehui said at Nan Huaishuo's wedding, and the people in the court also remembered it. Even though the prince was now terminally ill, there was still the queen.

Therefore, Nan Huaishuo will definitely cut the Gordian knot. He will find a way to stabilize the queen and then solve the problem of the prince as quickly as possible.

One month's time.

Enough for a lot to happen.
