The grass in the factory should be plucked
Chapter 260 Chess Game
Nangong Xihe was trained as the crown prince by the old emperor since he was young. How come he has never heard of the name of General Su Chen?
The old emperor took the annihilation of the Su family as an example of "imperial psychology", and he broke it down in detail and explained it to him one by one.
"If his achievements are so great that they overshadow his master, and he is too powerful to be removed, I will definitely kill him."
Su Chen was extremely brave and had made many outstanding achievements, but he was upright and stubborn, and he implemented the saying "When a general is on the battlefield, he may not obey the orders of the king" to the letter.
Such a military general who has made great contributions and is disobedient would naturally be suspected by the emperor.
When the old emperor received a secret report that Su Chen was suspected of having a private relationship with the second prince of the Jurchens, he became murderous.
He instructed the Queen's father, General Zhang Zhao, who was not yet the Duke of Zhenguo at the time, to set a trap and use the Mongols to wipe out the entire Su family.
However, his favorite concubine, Su Mei, was the daughter of Su Chen, so naturally she could not be kept.
But Su Mei was already pregnant at this time. The old emperor did not want to be branded as heartless and ungrateful, so he deliberately spread rumors that he wanted to make Su Mei the queen, and thus get rid of Su Mei through Empress Zhang.
Nangong Xihe was full of admiration for the old emperor's strategy of "killing with a borrowed knife". It not only eliminated dissidents, but also preserved the "friendship between the monarch and his subjects", winning him the reputation of "deep affection and loyalty".
Therefore, when he heard the words of the Queen of Nanyi, he was struck by lightning and stood dumbfounded!
General Su Chen is actually Princess Jindie’s grandfather!
Then, the Queen of Nanyi is...
"That's right. The current Queen of Nanyi is none other than Su Mei, the daughter of the Su family who was murdered by your father and mother!"
The Queen of Nanyi stared at him intently and giggled, "Are you surprised? There are even bigger surprises."
"My son, Nan Yonghe, is your half-brother - Nangong Yonghe!"
Nangong Xihe was so frightened that he fell to the ground.
No wonder Nan Yonghe asked him to call him "Royal Brother", he is actually the son of the Emperor!
It turned out that Su Mei was pregnant at that time and did not die after falling into the water. Somehow she married the king of Nanyi Kingdom and gave birth to Nan Yonghe safely!
Princess Jindie was also shocked. Nan Yonghe was her biological brother and also the biological brother of her husband’s wife?
Then myself and my husband...
She was confused for a moment. What kind of complicated relationship was this?
Su Mei smiled and said, "Die'er, don't worry about it. He and you are not related by blood."
Princess Jindie thought so too. She and Nangong Xihe had neither the same father nor the same mother!
She was relieved and giggled, "What's this? A closer relationship?"
Nangong Xihe slumped on the ground, his face pale.
Su Mei and Nan Yong, mother and son, have a blood feud with his father, but they actually married Princess Jindie to him. What conspiracy is there?
Su Mei glanced at him and sneered, "Are you wondering why I betrothed my only daughter to you?"
"You killed your own father and avenged the blood feud between me and your brother. This is your reward! Are you satisfied with this answer?"
Nangong Xihe's face turned pale and blue, these words sounded like sarcasm no matter how he listened to them!
“Even a tiger won’t eat its own cubs. Back then, your father ignored the fact that I was carrying his flesh and blood and murdered my mother and me. In the end, I died at the hands of his most beloved son. Heaven’s net is vast and retribution will come to you. Hahahaha…”
Su Mei laughed so hard that tears came out.
Nangong Xihe's face turned purple. Su Mei and Nan Yonghe kept him alive just to humiliate him, right?
In fact, there is a deeper reason, which Su Mei will not tell him.
If Nangong Xihe and Princess Jindie had a child, the child would be the closest blood relative to Nan Yonghe and would be most suitable for prolonging his life!
Su Mei was willing to use even her own flesh and blood born to the King of Nanyi to prolong Nan Yonghe's life, so why would she be reluctant to give up the child of Nangong Xihe and Princess Jindie?
Anyway, the magic can be performed without anyone noticing, and Die'er will only think that the child has died.
Princess Jindie was a little scared when she saw her mother laughing crazily, and hurriedly asked, "Mother, you brought me here to pay homage to my grandfather's family today, but have you avenged me?"
Su Mei stopped laughing and said with relief: "Die'er is really smart. Your brother sent a message saying that the Queen Mother of Great Chu and the family of the Duke of Zhenguo Zhang have been completely wiped out, except for a few who escaped the net. The blood debt must be paid with blood!"
"The 112 members of my Su family can finally rest in peace!"
Nangong Xihe was shocked again. Nan Yonghe actually killed Empress Dowager Zhang and the entire family of the Duke of Zhenguo?
So, will his next step be to seize the throne of Great Chu?
Nangong Xihe couldn't help but feel disheartened. He never expected that he actually had such an extremely capable royal brother!
Nan Yonghe is also the son of the previous emperor and is eligible to inherit the throne. With the help of the Nanyi Kingdom and King Gu, doesn't it mean that he will never be able to turn things around?
If he had known this would happen, why would he have gone through so much trouble?
Isn't it better to stay in Da Chu and be a rich and idle king than to live under someone else's roof in this small frontier country?
Thinking of this, Nangong Xihe really beat his chest and stamped his feet, regretting his decision!
What else doesn't he understand now?
As early as ten years ago, Su Mei sent Gong Baifeng to lurk beside her mother.
He kept saying that he was helping him win the throne, bewitched his mother, and intended to put a curse on his father. It was obviously all for Nan Yonghe and to avenge the Su family!
What a big game of chess!
It's ridiculous that both he and his mother were pawns in her game, but he couldn't see the truth clearly. He killed his father and the king, and even implicated his mother and the Zhou and Zheng families, all of whom became his victims!
In the end, he got nothing and they only gave him the position of a royal consort and kept saying that it was a reward for him!
What a huge irony!
Nangong Xihe figured out the whole story and just wanted to stab himself!
Su Mei glanced at him coldly. If you weren't so useful, I would have sent you to reunite with your father and mother long ago!
Princess Jindie's eyes were full of stars, and she looked at him with admiration: "Brother is so awesome! Grandfather's family has been avenged, and mother can rest assured now."
Su Mei smiled and said, "My Die'er is the most considerate. Come, burn incense for your grandfather's family."
Princess Jindie then happily lit three incense sticks.
She turned around and saw Nangong Xihe sitting on the ground in a daze, looking as if he was out of his wits. She couldn't help but asked angrily, "Prince Consort, what are you still standing there for?"
Nangong Xihe got up in a daze, turned around without saying a word, and staggered out.
"My dear husband, where are you going?" Princess Jindie stamped her feet. "I haven't even offered incense to my grandfather yet!"
Su Mei snorted coldly: "Don't worry about him, burn incense first."
Princess Jindie had no choice but to turn around and follow Su Mei, kneeling respectfully in front of the coffin.
Su Mei said with tears in her eyes: "Father, mother, uncles, brothers and sisters, A Mei and Yong Er, we have finally avenged you!"
"I hope you guys know about this and bless Yonger to live a long life, fulfill his wish, get married, start a family, and have many children and grandchildren."
Nangong Xihe staggered out of the Queen's Palace, but didn't know where to go.
He left the palace and unknowingly walked towards the dense forest on the back hill.
In the dense forest, tall trees block out the sun, and the air is filled with a damp and sultry smell.
He sat on a rock in a daze, feeling that the world was so big, but there was no place for him to stay. He couldn't help but feel sad and sobbed, "Mother, mother, I have hurt you!"
I only heard a sneer: "If I had known this would happen, why did I do it in the first place?"
Nangong Xihe looked up in a daze, only to see a white shadow slowly walking out of the dense forest.
She was dressed in white, had a pretty face, and a blood-red flower of the other shore was painted at the corner of her eye, making her look even more enchantingly and mysterious.
It was the former concubine of King Qi and the current Saint of Miao Gu, Chu Feixue!
She was playing with a snow-white snake with a smile on her face. The snake was sticking out its tongue and making a hissing sound, as if it was saying something to her.
"My little Yu'er said, don't bother with this lost dog."
"But," Chu Feixue smiled, "for the sake of our past friendship, I can't not say hello."
"Is that so, my Lord?"
Nangong Xihe heard her sarcastic words and could not help but retort: "Do you think you are a saint who is high above everyone else? You are nothing more than a plaything of the Gu King!"
King Gu is a playboy by nature and loves beautiful women the most. Apart from his old lover, the Queen of Nanyi, all his holy envoys and disciples who are slightly pretty will be seduced into his bed by him.
Besides, a saint as beautiful as Chu Feixue would naturally have become his bed partner a long time ago.
