Once upon a time there was a mountain of secrets

Seeing Gong Jiuqing again, Cang Nuan felt very complicated.It's really not a good feeling to be the proud son of heaven but now he has fallen into peace.

Gong Zimo looked at Gong Jiuqing with intact eyes and smiled for a moment, then turned into relief.

Gong Jiuqing smiled awkwardly, nodded and walked in.

And in the cave where Cang Nuan lived, there were all kinds of things, even though they were simple, they were all useful in the end. (This sentence... feels sickly written...)

Cang Nuan just woke up, because of the long-term torment of toxins, he is now as thin as a stick, and even the bottom of the cheeks seems to be covered only by the skin, while the whole face is nestled, his eyes are particularly prominent.

Even before Gong Jiuqing and the others came, the doctor had given him ginseng soup and elixir, but Cang Nuan was very weak.But there was no turbidity in the eyes at all, and they were still as bright as eagles.

Knowing Cang Nuan's current physical condition, Gong Zimo raised his hand and said, "Please sit down."

Gong Jiuqing and the others were not polite, and sat directly on the chairs prepared in advance.

Xin Mufei crossed Erlang's legs, showing impatience all over his face. "What secret do you want to say? Now that your emperor is awake, tell me quickly."

Gong Zimo said with a smile: "I promise everyone, I won't break my promise." After finishing speaking, Gong Zimo raised his voice: "Everyone go down."

When there were only Gong Jiuqing and Cang Nuan and himself in the entire cave room, Gong Zimo cupped his hands towards Xin Mufei and Feng Poyun and said, "I didn't intend to let you two know, but I can tell you Regarding Xiao Jiu's appeasement, I also hope that the two of you will protect him in the same way in the future."

Gong Jiuqing was slightly taken aback, "Xiao Jiu" has not been called this name for a long time.Except for his master and Gu Moqian, no one ever called him that.The formation outside the mountain, the current name, who is this Gong Zimo?

Gong Zimo said: "Let's talk about the incident at Tong Cang first. It's easier to explain. Before His Majesty returned to China, I was indeed the one who encouraged Cang Jixian to usurp the throne. And I gave him a hundred The reason is that I have found a person who looks very similar to His Majesty in advance. A little dressing can deceive people's eyes and ears."

"Please, such a big living person, could it be that no one knows about the change?" Xin Mufei asked.

Gong Jiuqing explained: "Your Majesty Tongcang is an emperor, and not everyone can take a close look at the face of an emperor. As long as Gong Zimo, who was most trusted by His Majesty Tongcang at that time, said he was His Majesty, then that person is Your Majesty."

Xin Mufei suddenly realized: "Oh..."

"Later, Cang Jixian was instructed by an expert to hold me empty. In fact, I also deliberately asked him to hold me empty so that I could save His Majesty. It can only be said that everything I did before was also taken away by others." I have no choice. If I don’t do it, someone else will.”

"Who?" Gong Jiuqing asked.

Gong Zimo said: "This is the key to what I want to say, and it is also the key to why I betrayed you, Xiao Jiu, why you went down the mountain, and even why the Five Kingdoms developed to where they are today... Actually, this matter is very hard to say , I don’t know where to start. Why don’t I tell you a story first.”

Xin Mufei said impatiently: "You scholars just talk a lot, so talk quickly."

Gong Zimo smiled slightly and said, "About 150 years ago, there was a Tianji Mountain." When talking about 'Tianji Mountain', almost everyone looked at Gong Jiuqing unconsciously or directly.

And Gong Jiuqing also knew that this truth seemed to mean the most to him.Maybe it's not just the conspiracy that happened in Tongcang, but also related to himself.

Gong Zimo said: "The people on Tianji Mountain are good at fortune-telling, there are even rumors that they can spy on Tianji..."

Xin Mufei was the most impatient to listen to such a story, and it was a well-known story.He waved his hand and interrupted: "I said, can you talk about the key points?"

Gong Jiuqing stepped on Xin Mufei's instep, gritted her teeth and said, "Can't you interrupt?"

Xin Mufei was in pain, holding back the pain on his face, and raised his middle finger towards Gong Jiuqing, saying 'you are ruthless'.

Gong Zimo was not angry either, and continued in a calm mood: "Everyone knows that Tianji Village was besieged by the Five Kingdoms and set fire to Tianji Mountain. But they don't know that the Tianji people are still alive."

"Of course I know, otherwise where did he come from?" Xin Mufei pointed at Gong Jiuqing and said.

Gritting her teeth, Gong Jiuqing held her palm in front of her, her fingers half-opened and half-closed irregularly as if cramp.It seems to be struggling whether to hit Xin Mufei, or it seems to be considering whether to hit him on the left cheek or the right cheek.

Xin Mufei saw the cramp Gong Jiuqing, realized that he was talking too much, and quickly sat up straight, like an obedient and good student.

Gong Zimo continued: "Yes, Xiao Jiu is indeed the heir of the heavenly secret, but he is not the only one. I am, and so is Gong Qiuli in Nanhui."

This news is undoubtedly the most exciting news.What is this concept?It's like saying that a god appeared, but it turned out that the people around him were also gods.No one would be able to react to such a shock for a while.

But Gong Jiuqing was mentally prepared before, he knew that Gong Zimo must have something to do with the Tianji Clan.What shocked him was this man named Gong Qiuli.

Gong Qiuli's name is too familiar, but he can't remember it.

Gong Jiuqing's lips trembled slightly, he thought of who it was, but he couldn't believe it, but he had to believe it. "Gong Qiuli... is it Li Maoqiu?"

Gong Zimo nodded and said, "Yes."

Xin Mufei raised his voice, "What the hell is that?"

Gong Zimo said: "The chivalrous man listened to me patiently. What I'm going to say next may be hard for everyone to believe, but it is the truth. Today's wars among the five countries are all provoked by others, and this person, He is a member of our Tianji Clan, and at the same time, also our master."

"Our... master?" Gong Jiuqing couldn't believe it. In his memory, the master had died four years ago, and it was obvious that he buried the bones with his own hands. "No, it's impossible."

"Xiao Jiu, I know that you are the most unbelievable person. But you are the one who should know the truth the most. Xiao Jiu, your memory is incomplete. Before you went down the mountain, you must have been hypnotized by the master with a secret technique , changed your memory. You should have met Gong Qiuli when you were in Nanhui, didn't you realize that you two look so similar?"

"What do you want to say..."

"Gong Qiuli is not someone else, but your brother."

"elder brother……??"

"What? His brother?"

"elder brother?"
