"The late emperor's edict." Gui Bu replied.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't understand, what does this have to do with the late emperor's edict?

Gui Bu continued: "Four years ago, the late emperor's edict appeared in Suibei Pass. My ancestor... Lord Wu An immediately took people to take back the edict after he learned about it, but he didn't get it back."

Did not take it back, Nanyang King blamed Lord Wu An for his ineffectiveness, and became angry and killed Lord Wu An and his descendants?

No, no, this is unreasonable, there must be a story.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Gui Ji.

Gui Bu hesitated for a moment, then said: "However, Lord Wu An saw the content of the will. It was because he was too shocked that he panicked and asked the other party to take away the will."

Su Xiaoxiao asked puzzledly: "What was written in the will that shocked grandfather so much?"

Gui Bu said indifferently: "Depose the king of Nanyang, take back his royal status, and demote him to a commoner. If there is any conspiracy...kill him."

Su Xiaoxiao and Su Mo were silent together.

This will...is indeed too surprising.

Su Xiaoxiao digested it for a while before speaking again: "Didn't the first emperor love the eldest son the most? Why did he depose him?"

Gui Bu shook his head: "I don't quite understand this point either."

Su Xiaoxiao asked again: "Could it be that the edict was forged by people from the White Lotus Sect?"

This time, Su Mo didn't brag about his sister brazenly. He said, "People from the White Lotus Sect are not that capable of forging imperial decrees. But the fact that the late emperor deposed the King of Nanyang is indeed very strange, and he even... wants to kill him."

This is very puzzling.

He continued: "Among the sons of the first emperor, the most respected and most indebted is King Nanyang."

"What do you owe?" Su Xiaoxiao felt that she couldn't finish the melons tonight.

Su Mo nodded: "That's right, when the first emperor was still a prince, he was ordered to quell the civil strife. Not long after, he was retaliated by the other party. The other party kidnapped the ten-year-old Nanyang King, tortured him, beat him, and imprisoned him. , abused him inhumanely, and vented all his anger against the late emperor on an innocent child. The late emperor was not threatened, and regardless of his son's life or death, he resolutely entered the lair of the rebels. The rebels shot and killed Nanyang in front of the late emperor. The king... was not killed, but the imperial physician was rescued."

Su Xiaoxiao hesitated and said: "The first emperor..."

Su Mo said: "It's hard to say right or wrong about that matter. If you compromise, hundreds of soldiers will die. If you don't compromise, you will lose your eldest son."

Su Xiaoxiao asked: "What is the attitude of King Nanyang?"

Su Mo said: "He didn't blame the late emperor, and treated him with respect as always. On the contrary, the late emperor felt extremely guilty for the eldest son, and treated him differently from the other sons from then on."

"Is that so?" Su Xiaoxiao asked Ghost.

"Yes." Ghost Horror replied.

"I see."

Su Xiaoxiao understood.

Many seemingly illogical things now have explanations.

The posthumous edict did not establish Nanyang King, but abolished Nanyang King. The Nanyang King was not allowed to rebel, otherwise he would be punished.

The King of Nanyang must rebel. He was worried that the Wei family would no longer follow him, and he was even more afraid that Lord Wu An, Wei Xu and others would kill him according to the order, so he acted preemptively and colluded with He Lianye to kill everyone.

Zhang Feng must have also seen the content of the will, and felt that he would also be silenced by the King of Nanyang, so he approached Zhao Kangning to make a deal and asked Zhao Kangning to help him escape.

The only thing I can't figure out now is why did the first emperor depose his most beloved and most indebted son?

...

When Su Xiaoxiao and Su Mo came out, Wei Liulang stood quietly at the corner of the corridor by himself.

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at him, and said to Su Mo, "Big cousin, go back first."

Su Mo said, "Okay, I'll come back tomorrow."

After seeing off Su Mo, Su Xiaoxiao came to Wei Liulang and asked softly, "Did you hear that just now?"

"I heard." Wei Liulang said in a low mood.

When Su Xiaoxiao went to He Lianye's house to find out the murderer, he wanted to guard his elder brother, so he didn't pass, but he was at the door just now, and he didn't understand anything from the beginning to the end.

Even though he was wearing a mask, Su Xiaoxiao could feel the blow he suffered from his tense body.

"Brother Six." Su Xiaoxiao called softly.

"He's Min'er's father..." Wei Liulang's eyes turned red.

Xiao Min, the little princess of the Nanyang Palace, the biological mother of the big tiger, the two tigers and the little tiger.

To the rest of the Wei family, the King of Nanyang is a king and a friend, but to Wei Liulang, he has another identity.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't know how to comfort him, it seemed superfluous to say anything at this time.

This is a mortal enmity, betrayal by the closest person, and an indelible grief.

Wei Ting is back.

"Sixth Brother, Xiao Xiao."

Wei Liulang turned around and said in his usual tone, "I'm going back to the house first."

Wei Ting watched Wei Liulang enter his and his eldest brother's room, and said to Su Xiaoxiao, "Let's go back too."

The two returned to the room.

Just as Mrs. Li left, the three little guys were on their backs, sleeping soundly.

Su Xiaoxiao closed the window, sat down with Wei Ting, and poured Wei Ting a cup of herbal tea to relieve the heat: "Have you seen Nanyang King?"

"I see." Wei Ting looked complicated, "But I don't feel like I'm alone at all."

"How to say?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Wei Ting recalled: "The change was so great that I could barely recognize him."

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a while: "The last time you saw Nanyang King was ten years ago, right? After the Nanyang Palace was destroyed, you never saw Nanyang King again."

Wei Ting said: "That's right, I don't know that he is still alive, I always thought that only the sixth sister-in-law survived."

Su Xiaoxiao said: "Ten years can change a lot, enough to make a person reborn."

"I know." Wei Ting couldn't describe the feeling in his heart. "The scar behind his ear is still there. He is the King of Nanyang, but... I just don't think he is. He is left-handed, but his dominant hand is right-handed now. The number of martial arts has also changed, the eyes, the aura...all are different from before. The sixth brother and the eldest brother have also changed, but no matter how they change their martial arts and habits, I can still recognize them. King Nanyang... If it wasn't for Having identified him, I hardly dare to recognize him."

Su Xiaoxiao didn't say anything. After all, I haven't seen him for ten years. You are not as familiar with him as your brother.

You know, this is Wei Ting.

His mind and memory are very human.

So, what happened to make King Nanyang a different person?

To be cautious, Su Xiaoxiao cut off a small piece of Duhu's hair, and brought the cup from Helianye's room into the pharmacy.

The cup was drunk by King Nanyang in the secret room.

The results showed that the kinship relationship between King Nanyang and Dahu was established, and he was the real King of Nanyang, not someone else pretending to be him.

"Could it be the son of the Eldest Princess? Has it been swapped with the Queen Mother?"

The three little ones crawled on the queen mother all day, and Su Xiaoxiao found a white hair of the queen mother in Xiaohu's change of clothes.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the final test result: "Well, he is the empress dowager's own son."
