Chapter 885 Seeing the Future
Later, he provoked disputes among several princes of the Chen State, supported puppet princes, and won over generals who controlled large armies of the Chen State. After years of painstaking planning, he and his adoptive father General Yun Wei cooperated internally and externally and finally destroyed the Chen State.
At this point, he became famous in one battle, and those confidants of the State of Chen who followed him were also brought back by him.
But my father doesn't trust them.
He simply believed that those who were not of his race must have different hearts.
He had thought so, but during his years in the State of Chen, he had truly and personally witnessed the humiliation they suffered.
He believed that their hatred for the Chen royal family was no less than his.
After several rounds of pleading and confrontation, his father finally gave in. However, all those who knew his identity had to take poison.
Later, because Liangzhou was short of people to take charge, he was transferred to Liangzhou again.
However, during the years he was stationed in Liangzhou, he discovered that some people embezzled military pay and falsely reported military supplies. He returned to Beijing and reported the matter to his father, who immediately changed his identity and ordered him to stay in Beijing to investigate.
But the more you investigate these things, the deeper they get and the more difficult they become.
Especially when it comes to the prince and his concubines, without solid evidence, one will only be implicated.
Shen Shuyi listened to his words and was speechless for a moment.
Should she blame him?
Of course it's weird.
But it seemed that he had no control over his destiny and could only be pushed forward step by step.
Xie Jingchi held her in his arms from behind, lowered his eyes, and whispered, "I thought my life had been like this, completely devoid of any joy, and I didn't even know why I was alive."
"Until I met you."
Shen Shuyi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he lowered his eyes and said slowly: "Back then, why did you appear in General Yunwei's mansion and become his adopted son?"
Xie Jingchi said self-deprecatingly, "After my mother's death, I knew that if I wanted to survive in the palace, I could only gain the favor of my father, so I planned to meet him by chance a few times."
But even so, he knew that he had no protection from his mother's family, and gaining his favor would be like asking for trouble.
So later when Daqian signed a peace agreement with the State of Chen, he asked to enter General Yunwei's mansion and was sent to the State of Chen as a hostage in the name of General Yunwei's son.
At that time, the State of Chen wanted the prince as a hostage, but the people of the State of Qian were unwilling to send the prince, fearing that the prince would be humiliated and the national dignity would be humiliated. They also believed that the State of Chen's move was an insult to the reputation of Daqian.
However, the State of Chen did not agree to let anyone else go as a hostage, unless it was General Yunwei's son.
Because back then, General Yunwei guarded the border between Daqian and the State of Chen and killed countless famous generals of the State of Chen. It can be said that he was the person that the State of Chen feared and hated the most.
Shen Shuyi didn't say anything, but felt that he was really smart.
In this way, he not only avoided the struggles in the Daqian harem, but also became the most concerned person in Emperor Qianwu's heart.
After all, a son who, at a young age, goes deep into the enemy country alone and shares his father's worries and sufferings is naturally different from those sons who live in luxury and keep their eyes on his throne.
In this way, as long as he can hold on until he returns safely, he will definitely have a place in the court.
In fact, he not only came back, but also gave Emperor Qianwu a huge surprise!
The State of Chen, which had been entangled with Daqian for decades, was actually destroyed by his son who was taken as a hostage. It is conceivable how proud and proud Emperor Qianwu would be as a father!
More importantly, after Xie Jingchi returned to Beijing, not only did he not ask to restore his status as a prince, but he was willing to give up his military power, take part in the imperial examinations, and go deep into the court to become the sharpest knife in his hand!
How can anyone else compare to a son like this?
Shen Shuyi finally understood why Emperor Qianwu was so indulgent and fond of him.
"What about the military power in Liangzhou?" Shen Shuyi checked. If calculated according to the time, Xie Jingchi had resigned his military power the year he came back and recuperated in the capital under the pretext of recuperating from illness.
"After returning to the capital, I was afraid that my father would be suspicious of me because of my power, so I surrendered my military power under the pretext of illness, recuperated in the capital, and focused on preparing for the imperial examinations, entering the officialdom under the name Xie Jingchi."
Unfortunately, there are too few useful people in the court, and the Yuanxia army is very powerful.
Emperor Qianwu sent several people to Liangzhou to take charge, but they all suffered defeats. After that, he thought for some time and handed the military power back to him.
However, if he did that, he would have to take on both the roles of Xie Jingchi and the Wolf King.
"Who was the person I met in the camp today?" Shen Shuyi asked.
"I found a famous opera singer. He looks a bit like me, and most importantly, his aura is quite intimidating. He also has some martial arts skills that are good-looking but not very practical. I also had someone train him for a while, and he usually fills in for me in the camp when I'm not around."
Shen Shuyi couldn't help but sigh: "Your identity, both visible and hidden, is really useful."
However, he is a prince after all, so when it comes to matters involving Xiao Heyu and Xiao Yuncheng, he has to be extremely cautious and not as reckless as Tong Guan.
I think Emperor Qianwu also took this into consideration. In addition, Xie Jingchi was not in the capital all year round, so he established the Jinyisi to serve as his eyes and ears.
"So what's the story behind your martial arts?" Shen Shuyi asked.
"As long as I can remember, the poison has been in my body. As you suspected, there are no people in Daqian who are good at using poison techniques, so this poison in me was most likely planted by Concubine Yao."
However, he couldn't understand why his mother, who had lived in the palace for many years and never competed for favor or did evil to others, would cast a curse on him?
"It's really strange." Shen Shuyi didn't figure it out either, but she changed her mind and remembered the attitude of the Li tribe saint when she met Xie Jingchi last time.
She asked Li Ye about it later, and Li Ye said that another ability of the Li tribe's saint was the ability to see into the future.
"Was Concubine Yao also a holy woman of the Li people?" Shen Shuyi turned around and suddenly had a guess.
Today, the Li ethnic group saint is particularly respectful to Xie Jingchi because she can see the future. So what is this future?
If he is King Zhao like in his previous life, then he will be the future emperor of Daqian!
The Li tribe saint did not want to be an enemy of the future emperor, so she was extremely respectful to Xie Jingchi.
So, what did Concubine Yao see?
Shen Shuyi suddenly remembered that before he died in his previous life, he heard the news that Xiao Tingshan was beheaded by King Zhao!
Thinking of this, Shen Shuyi suddenly figured it out.
"Because Concubine Yao sees the future in you."
"What future?" Xie Jingchi was puzzled.
"She saw you kill her son, Xiao Tingshan." Shen Shuyi spoke softly. With this speculation, everything made sense: "So, she put a curse on you, not wanting you to practice martial arts, in an attempt to change Xiao Tingshan's fate."
But Concubine Yao probably didn't expect that Xie Jingchi had still learned martial arts and his martial arts skills were outstanding.
Not only that, she also cast a curse on her own son, tying Wenren Zong's life to his, in an attempt to protect him.
But she didn't expect that fate would not change according to her will. She even suffered the backlash because of the curse she put on Xie Jingchi, and she died soon after.
If this is the explanation, then everything makes sense.
