A beautiful daughter came to the Xiangfu

Chapter 163 Vanguard General

Ah Zhu suddenly looked at Ah Ying, with a little doubt in his heart, and asked her: "Do you really not know or are you pretending not to know?"

Ah Ying was a little confused by this sudden question.

"What did you say?"

Ah Ying was naturally confused. Was there something she should know?

Ah Zhu looked at him as if he were a monster again.

"Master has let go of her hatred now, but the things she told me when we were young are true. The Kingdom of Jin caused our country to be destroyed. Don't you want to restore it?"

"Azhu, Master, as a princess, has let go of her hatred, so why are you unwilling to let go? Will it be good as long as Yuan Kingdom is not destroyed? Whoever owns the kingdom belongs to him. As long as the people live well, that's enough!"

"So do you think the people are doing well?"

"The people of Jin are better off than those of Southern Xinjiang, but this is the problem of the monarch of Southern Xinjiang. You can't blame Jin. The more people like Prince Shun there are, the more chaotic the world will be. They only have wars, so what does the death of a commoner mean to them?"

"Azhu, you and I have followed our master since we were young. She is the princess of Yuan Country. Have you ever thought about how lucky we are to be adopted by a princess?"

"Master is kindhearted and treats us like her own children. We should do what we should do to show filial piety to her. This is not revenge."

"A Ying, if I knew who my parents were and who killed them, would I need revenge?"

When Ah Zhu said this, his eyes were misty.

Ah Ying paused and asked her, "Do you know who your parents are? How do you know? Didn't Prince Shun tell you? Don't believe him, he is using you."

Ah Zhu shook his head and said, "Not killing Prince Shun is a sign of my master's loyalty."

Ah Ying asked cautiously, "Master told you?"

Ah Zhu nodded, "Master said that we are sisters with the same father but different mothers. When Yuan Kingdom was conquered, the princess took us two little babies and left the palace. Our home is in the palace."

Ah Ying's eyes widened. "What did you say? Your home is in the palace?"

"Yes, we were originally princesses, and our master was our aunt, otherwise how could she take care of us? The Kingdom of Jin caused us to lose our country, our home, our parents..."

Ah Ying quickly interrupted Ah Zhu and asked, "How do you know? Master can't tell you and not tell me."

Ah Zhu suddenly looked at Ah Ying with resentment and yelled, "Why should the master tell you everything? Who do you think you are? Is it reasonable that you need to know everything in this world?"

Ah Ying looked at Ah Zhu in confusion.

"Master told you that, didn't he?"

Ah Zhu sneered softly, "Doesn't it change the fact that we are princesses of Yuan Kingdom? Even if Master doesn't want to restore the country, do you want to? It's okay if you don't want to, but I don't want to live under someone else's roof. The people and officials of Jin Kingdom are innocent, so aren't the people in our southern border who are still in the war innocent?"

"You can save people, but can you save their hearts? Ah Ying, stop deceiving yourself. You have seen these ministers of Jin State. Even the only prince can kill his father and the emperor for the throne. What hope and meaning is there for such a court?"

Aying took the food out of the lunch box and pushed it in front of Azhu.

"Stop talking. You're already on death row. Why are you still so stubborn?"

As she spoke, Ying began to pack up her lunch box and stood up to leave.

Azhu walked forward and pulled the corner of Aying's clothes.

"We did nothing wrong, but in the past, the people of Yuan State were attacked by several imperial courts in southern Xinjiang and Jin State. People only know that we are good at making drugs, but we are also trying to protect ourselves. We have always been a principle of not offending others unless they offend us. But those people bullied us in every possible way. If we don't resist, we will die."

"It was wrong for Prince Shun to rebel, but he gave me the opportunity to restore my country. Why did Master allow you to go in and out of the two countries freely, while I can only stay in that corner? I also want to see the world."

Ah Ying sighed again, "You think everything is so simple."

"At the beginning, my master asked me to leave with General Yang, and General Yang treated me very well. I don't know what my master said to the Yang family, but your words today made me understand clearly that perhaps the Yang family knew my identity. The past should be the past, and we should not care about it."

"It's not hateful to do bad things with good intentions. What's hateful is to do bad things with bad intentions and not repent. You committed murder first and treason later. Either way, it's a capital crime. Think about it carefully. The master can't lock you up, but this cell may be able to lock you up."

Ah Ying walked out of the cell, turned around and said to Ah Zhu: "I will come to see you in a while. I hope you are alive and well."

After saying this, Ah Zhu was left sitting alone in the cell.

Ah Ying followed the bailiff out of the prison.

After only staying in the dark prison for a while, he was no longer used to the sunlight outside when he came out.

This door is damp and dark inside, and sunny and warm outside. It is like two completely different worlds.

After visiting, Ying returned to the general's mansion.

She was half-believing and half-doubting what Azhu said. No matter what her identity was, it would not affect her life.

The emperor imprisoned the crown prince and Queen Shun and did not deal with them in a hurry.

He knew that what might happen next was the most important.

Those who were ostensibly attached to the prince were panicked. Now that the prince was gone, who could they turn to? Even if what was said by the people was true, the prince had never shown up.

The emperor did not mention the matter of the common prince again, as if it had never happened. However, some ministers felt that the emperor must have made plans, otherwise it would be impossible for his son to commit a capital crime without any consequences. He must have chosen a successor, but he did not mention it now, probably for the sake of that person's safety, after all, the traitors had not been completely eliminated.

The Xiao family suffered blows one after another, and both times were the crime of "annihilation of the entire family". In comparison, the Shun Prince's Mansion was more direct, and the Shun Prince's wife was a member of the Xiao family, and now her property was confiscated.

Prince Shun in the capital was captured, so how could the old Prince Shun, who was far away at the border, remain unscathed? The people in Prince Shun's mansion were prepared for rebellion, and the preparation started with the old Prince Shun, who had been planning for so many years. After Prince Shun knew that his son had failed, he directly raised an army.

Prince Shun has always had good relations with some vassal kings on the border. This time he was not the only one rebelling, but contacted several vassal kings to rebel together.

The border of Jin State was in turmoil. Seeing that the enemy was coming with great preparation and momentum, this battle had to be fought. The emperor was not surprised when he received the battle report from the border. In order to resist foreign aggression, one must first stabilize the internal affairs. Now that the internal affairs have been stabilized, the external affairs must also be dealt with.

The peace in Jin State had only lasted for more than a decade. The civil and military officials in the court were not afraid of foreign enemies, and many military generals requested to fight. The Yang and Wang families were both military generals, and each led a team to attack from two directions. The vanguard general in this battle was somewhat unexpected. He was the emperor's nephew, Liang Jingsui, Prince Xiao'an.
