Disguised as a man: Watch me create a new dynasty

Chapter 265 The truth of the matter

She thought of her father's always kind and loving appearance, and then thought of the miserable situation of the Fu family, and she couldn't connect the two.

It was a secret letter written to Prime Minister Jiang, which clearly recorded the conspiracy plan of that year and the person who was designed to be the scapegoat.

The person who signed the letter was none other than Concubine Shu's father, the current Minister of Revenue, Wang Qin.

Back then, Wang Qin worked under Fu Shengxing. The two were not only superiors and subordinates, but also brothers from the same school and had a close relationship.

At that time, they often drank and talked happily, discussing the court situation, poetry, calligraphy and painting.

The children of the two families often interacted with each other since they were young. The only son of the Fu family was elegant and talented, and he and the gentle and lovely Concubine Shu were childhood sweethearts.

They once confided their true feelings to each other under the moonlight and looked forward to a better life in the future.

The Fu family had only this one child, and the two families had secretly arranged a marriage for Concubine Shu before she reached the age of 15, and were waiting for her to reach the age of 15 to get married.

At that time, Concubine Shu was full of expectations for the future. She would embroider a mandarin duck handkerchief in her boudoir, thinking of her beloved.

However, when the entire Fu family was sentenced to exile, Concubine Shu was struck by a bolt from the blue.

She just felt dizzy and the world collapsed in an instant.

She collapsed on the ground, tears streaming down her face. She refused to eat or drink and became so sad that she fell seriously ill.

Lying on her sickbed, she was filled with hatred and vowed to avenge the Fu family.

After she recovered from her illness, she resolutely took part in the selection, determined to enter the palace as a concubine.

She thought, since she couldn't kill her enemy with her own hands, she would let the emperor taste the pain as well.

From then on, she regarded the emperor as her enemy. Because she had no love in her heart and was too lazy to compete for favor, she just used some means to get pregnant with a child to gain a foothold.

After the child was born, she looked at the tiny baby with mixed feelings.

She taught him to keep a low profile and hide his shortcomings, calling it sitting on the mountain and watching tigers fight, but in fact she was unwilling to raise the child of her "enemy" with all her heart.

She often cried alone in the middle of the night, with hatred and pain intertwined in her heart.

All of this was originally hidden very well, but was discovered by Yan Nansheng.

At this moment, Concubine Shu was both frightened and angry.

She seemed to want to vent all the resentment in her heart and tell the emperor all her thoughts, just to disgust him.

She gritted her teeth and decided to let everyone know the ugliness of the royal family.

She looked up at the emperor, her eyes full of resentment, as if she wanted to cut the emperor into pieces.

The emperor sat on a high throne with a gloomy face. He looked at Concubine Shu, feeling angry and confused, wondering how many conspiracies were behind this.

At this moment, in the secret room separated by a wall, two people, one big and one small, stood there motionless, but their faces were full of ferocious expressions and traces of tears.

When Concubine Shu started to go crazy, Yan Nansheng asked the secret guards to take the Second Prince and the Fifth Prince to the secret room next door, and pressed their acupoints to prevent them from making any sound.

Listening to their mother's crazy and sincere words, the two princes could not believe their ears.

What are they?

The son of an enemy? A pawn of revenge?

It's not her child anyway.

On the other side, Yan Nansheng folded his arms and watched everything coldly.

"It seems that he won't cry until he sees the coffin."

Yan Nansheng whispered a few instructions to Ye Xiao, and Ye Xiao went out.

Yan Nansheng folded his arms, looking cold and silent, as he watched all this quietly.

Night Owl took the order and left, then returned quietly. His movements were as light as a ghost in the dark night.

Concubine Shu had long lost her previous arrogance and her entire body seemed to have lost its backbone as she leaned dejectedly to the side.

After tossing and turning for most of the night, her eyes were bloodshot and her look revealed deep fatigue.

The emperor sat on a high throne with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was resting, but his slightly furrowed brows revealed his inner unrest.

After Night Owl returned, he nodded slightly to Yan Nansheng.

Yan Nansheng nodded slightly, glanced towards the door, and said softly, "Please come in."

Following the sound of light footsteps, two people were brought in.

As soon as they stepped into the secret room, they were shocked by the scene before them.

But when he saw the gentle smile on Yan Nansheng's face, the fear and shock of being forcibly brought to the palace in the middle of the night seemed to dissipate a little.

"Don't be afraid. This is His Majesty. Please kowtow and greet him." Yan Nansheng's voice was calm, but it carried a reassuring power.

The two men knelt down and kowtowed hurriedly, their movements were awkward and flustered, and their greetings were trembling.

"Get up." The emperor's tired but still majestic voice sounded.

This voice seemed to have an invisible sense of oppression, making the two people more uneasy, and their bodies trembled slightly involuntarily.

Yan Nansheng was keenly aware of their uneasiness and raised his eyes to glance at the emperor.

The emperor understood, coughed lightly, and tried to make his expression more kind.

At this time, Concubine Shu did not pay much attention because the two men came in with their backs to her and the light in the secret room was dim.

She was so absorbed in her own thoughts that she was oblivious to the changes around her.

"Shufei, do you recognize her?" Yan Nansheng's cold voice broke the silence in the room.

"Aunt Jiang, please move closer to Concubine Shu and let her take a good look at her." Yan Nansheng continued.

Upon hearing this, Concubine Shu glanced at the woman walking towards her with disdain and snorted coldly, "What tricks does Your Royal Highness have? Just use them. Even if you..."

She took a casual glance and saw a person who shouldn't be there at this time, or a person who should have died.

“Aunt Fu!”

"You, you are, you are Aunt Fu..."

When Aunt Jiang heard someone calling her Aunt Fu, she didn't react for a moment.

After so many years, she had almost forgotten her last name, Fu. She was deliberately forgetting it, as if this would allow her to truly become a different person.

No longer a member of the Fu family, only this way can I live a stable life.

But when Aunt Jiang saw the face of the woman on the rack, her face turned pale instantly.

She turned around hastily and said in a panic, "What Aunt Fu? My last name is Jiang, and people call me Aunt Jiang. I don't know any Aunt Fu."

"No mistake! Absolutely no mistake! Turn around!"

The Concubine's voice suddenly rose, with a hint of madness.

"Turn around. Weren't you driven out of your husband's house because the Fu family was demoted and implicated? Didn't you chase them to the north? Didn't you catch up with the Fu family?"

"You are not dead, then where have you been all these years? Why did you hide away?"

"Do you know how heartbroken I was all these years when I thought you were all dead?"

"Since you are still alive, why don't you come to see me! Why, Aunt Fu..."

Every word of Concubine Shu's questioning was so tearful that Aunt Jiang closed her eyes tightly. Her body trembled like a leaf in the wind and she didn't dare to look at other people's eyes.
