"But you were so young at that time, you probably didn't know what those plays meant?"

Shen Moyu was a little curious, and listened with great interest as Xiao Xuan described her childhood in detail.

"Yeah, I don't understand."

Xiao Xuan nodded in response, and then changed the subject, "Although I don't understand, I know that the opera is fake. At that time, I thought the person who told me these things was sent by my mother to sing with me. I had a lot of fun, but gradually, I found that something was different."

"Why is it different?"

Xiao Xuan's voice changed from cheerful at first to heavy later, and Shen Moyu couldn't help but feel heartbroken when he heard it.

"Because the person who was with me at that time spoke in a different tone than the people here. It was Xiao Ling who first discovered this. We all felt very scared and helpless. At this time, the little uncle appeared."

Shen Moyou couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "I thought he had been among them for a long time, but I didn't expect him to appear now."

"Yes, the little uncle didn't come to the palace often. But on my sixth birthday, he told me that everything should be back on track. At that time, I didn't even know what it meant to be back on track. I just thought that this boy, who was only a few years older than me, was very scary."

When Xiao Xuan talked about the former Xiao Linchuan, fear could not help but flashed in her eyes. It seemed that the former Xiao Linchuan must have been a very fierce person.

Shen Moyou continued to ask, "What happened next?"

"later……"

Xiao Xuan continued, her thoughts flying back to several years ago, "Later, I met the secret guards around the little uncle, met many people from Dazhao, and learned about the existence of Happy Tower. I woke up and realized that everything was real, not a dream."

"Does Concubine Ruan know your background?"

This is what Shen Moyu was most curious about. For so many years, Concubine Ruan had raised two children in public. She found it hard to believe that Concubine Ruan was completely unaware of this. It was too fake.

As expected, Xiao Xuan smiled bitterly as soon as she heard what Shen Moyou asked. "How could my mother not know? But even if she knew, what can she do? Her own child was killed by the queen in the palace fight and died at birth."

"Wha...what!?"

This was something Shen Moyou had not expected. "So Concubine Ruan is also pregnant with twins?"

"It's a coincidence that Ling'er and I were born in Dazhao as twins, and Concubine Ruan died at birth, also twins. We were born in the same year and month but on different days. We were born half a month earlier than the twins, so we replaced Concubine Ruan's children very well, and it can be said that no one knew about it."

Xiao Xuan told Shen Moyu everything she knew. She answered whatever Shen Moyu asked and was not afraid of saying anything that shouldn't be said.

"No wonder Concubine Ruan and the Queen have been at loggerheads for so many years. It turns out there's a deep blood feud between them."

Shen Moyu could now understand why Concubine Ruan was so annoying and even hated the Queen.

I'm afraid no one would like to respect a person who killed his two children, right?

"So mother actually knows everything, but she has no attachment to this palace. She is willing to stay and cooperate with us now only because we promised her that one day, we will avenge her and her dead twins."

Xiao Xuan was filled with righteous indignation when he heard this, while Shen Moyou was amazed. "This is too incredible. Even a storybook can't write something like this."

"Yeah, if I hadn't experienced it myself, I probably wouldn't have believed it."

When Xiao Xuan said this, she seemed helpless and a little pitiful. Shen Moyu didn't know how to comfort her, but so many years had passed, and even if there were scars in her heart, they should have scabbed over.

She didn't want to continue asking. Once the scabbed wound was torn, it would probably be even more painful. This was not what she wanted. She asked those questions just to know more about Xiao Linchuan's past.

I thought these things in the past were ordinary, but I didn't know they were so hard to accept.

Especially Concubine Ruan, I wonder how she felt when she learned that her child was killed at birth.

Xiao Xuan and Xiao Ling, brother and sister, traveled thousands of miles from Dazhao to Mingzhen. Have they ever seen their biological mother?

Shen Moyu didn't dare to ask this, but her not asking didn't mean that Xiao Xuan wouldn't tell her.

"In fact, my little uncle is also my uncle in Dazhao. It's just that his identity is too special. In Dazhao, except for the royal family, almost no one knows of his existence."

Xiao Xuan knew that Shen Moyu kept asking questions over and over again because he was actually just concerned about Xiao Linchuan and wanted to know more about him, so she would just fulfill his wish.

"So since he was born in Mingzhen, does that mean he has never been back to Dazhao?"

Shen Moyou felt as if she was pricked by a needle in the chest, and she twitched in pain. "So, in all these years, he has neither received his mother's love nor returned to his hometown?"

"You can say that, but this is the little uncle's own choice. He doesn't want to go back. Mo You, you should know better than me the real reason why the little uncle doesn't want to go back to Da Zhao."

After talking a lot, Xiao Xuan came back to the starting point, because she had always wanted to help Xiao Linchuan to get Shen Moyu. Although this process might be a little difficult, it didn't matter, she had plenty of ways.

"Xuan'er, I know what you want to say, but these things are not as simple as you think. Do you think that if I really agree to your little uncle, you will get what you want? Or do you think your so-called father will agree?"

When Shen Moyu said this, her tone was full of sarcasm. After experiencing two lifetimes, she knew the people of the Xiao royal family very well. These people were the most hypocritical. Even if they agreed on the surface, they would try every means to regret it in the future.

"Mo You, I think you're thinking too much. You can leave these things to my uncle. As long as you agree to marry him, you don't have to worry about anything else, right?"

Xiao Xuan was a little anxious, and she also knew that if Shen Moyu didn't give in, her little uncle would definitely not do anything.

The young uncle has been guarding Shen Moyu wholeheartedly for so many years. I'm afraid he has long been accustomed to this kind of life, so if he wants to go further, Shen Moyu has to come.

"Xuan'er, things are not as simple as you think. Even if I agree, your little uncle can solve it. What about the future? Have you ever thought that your little uncle does not belong here? He and I are from two different countries. We are not on the same side. Do you understand?"

She didn't know how to make Xiao Xuan understand that some things cannot be done just by "wanting". Many times, everyone has no choice but to be cautious and guard the last step.
