"This is going to involve another thing. Concubine Xiao and the late empress have similar family backgrounds. They are both amazingly talented and beautiful. They were once close friends. The emperor chose the late empress Yin, but did not choose her.
"
"They were friends from the same generation, but suddenly, when she met her old friend, she had to kneel down to worship her, and the desire for power inevitably arose in her heart."
This reminded Chu Yunxi of Chu Xueer, but Concubine Xiao's status and methods were more sophisticated.
"When she learned that the emperor was afraid of the Sikong family, she tried every means to find a breakthrough from Sikong Yu. Sikong Yu was unprepared for her, so she finally found an opportunity and used the Sikong family as a stepping stone to successfully get into the emperor's eyes."
"Despicable!"
Chu Yunxi couldn't help but curse, it was like a nest of snakes and rats, like mother, like son.
Why are Concubine Xiao and Jun Hongyan so similar? They both caught her and her relatives to harm her. She vowed not to be a human being unless she avenges her.
Mrs. Chu sighed:
"The Sikong Academy, which was once in great prosperity, was all closed down in one breath. As a result, Sikong's family was bloodbathed, died, and was exiled. Only Sikong Yu was spared from the disaster because he traveled with his classmates and friends."
Chu Yunxi's heart skipped a beat and she frowned: "Since the Sikong family has students all over the world, is there no one who speaks out for them?"
"Of course there is. The students organized a sit-in that lasted ten days. The emperor became even more convinced that the existence of the Sikong family would threaten his throne."
Mrs. Chu took Chu Yunxi's hand. She also needed a little support to continue telling this tragic story.
"It was at that time that Xiao Guogong, the father of Concubine Xiao, stood up to solve the emperor's problems. He used iron-fisted measures to suppress the opposition without causing more serious consequences, and he became the emperor's favorite. To the emperor, Xiao Guogong had the ability.
The power of the dragon. Therefore, the emperor has been very indulgent towards Duke Xiao and his family in recent years."
Chu Yunxi rejected Prince An mercilessly. Mrs. Chu did not dare to think carefully about what kind of revenge this would bring to the Chu family. She could only take it one step at a time.
"Then how did Mr. evade capture? And later on, was he able to become famous all over the world?" Chu Yunxi asked.
"Sikong Yu's classmate asked his family to protect him. The family appreciated Sikong Yu's talent and agreed. From then on, Sikong Yu wore a human skin mask and remained anonymous."
"Isn't that classmate?"
Chu Yunxi seemed to have an epiphany. No wonder her mother and Mr. Sikong got along like brothers and sisters.
Mrs. Chu nodded:
"It is your uncle, Sikong Yu, who has lived in your grandfather's house for eight full years. Out of guilt for the family and fear of bringing disaster to your grandfather, during these eight years, he has been keeping books as a companion every day.
Only your uncles and I can talk to him and relieve the depression in his heart."
"Mr. Sikong, it turns out that his life experience is so miserable."
Chu Yunxi, who had experienced family destruction and death in his previous life, felt the same way.
"Yes, he is a poor man, but he was also lucky to meet your uncle and grandfather. There was a severe drought that year, and the natural disasters were unprecedentedly severe. Your grandfather reported to the emperor, asking for amnesty for the world, and doing good deeds to thank heaven. The Sikong family
The few remaining people were able to resume their civilian status."
"Mr. has been sharpening his sword for eight years. He is very good at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he chose the most inconspicuous piano and got into the eyes of the world." Chu Yunxi guessed the second half.
The world thinks that Sikong Yu's title as the number one luthier is the ultimate honor. But for Sikong Yu, if it were not for the imprisonment of the past, he would become a new generation of literary giants in the Sikong family and become the object of worship for all students.
Chu Yunxi's nose was very sore. Her mentor failed to recognize his talent! He traveled around the world, but in the end he did not find spiritual comfort. She had to retreat to the mountains and forests to seek inner peace.
I'm afraid, like her in her previous life, he was tortured by endless regret and hatred every day, but could not express it. After all, his enemy was not only Duke Xiao, but also Concubine Xiao, and even the current emperor.
"Mom, I want to go to Qingfeng Mountain!"
Chu Yunxi's sudden voice startled Mrs. Chu, who almost lost her usual dignity.
"No! How can you, a woman, go to such a far place alone? Don't worry, your father has already sent someone to look for her."
"Mother, my daughter must see her husband with her own eyes before she can feel at ease."
Chu Yunxi insisted that in this life, she not only wanted to take revenge, but also to repay kindness. She did not want to leave any regrets like in her previous life.
"At least, it's not too late to wait until the people who go out to investigate bring back the news before making a decision."
Mrs. Chu looked at her daughter who had made up her mind and gave in.
Chu Yunxi thought that her mother was pregnant now, and didn't want her to worry too much. Besides, Chu Xueer was still with her mother, so she didn't feel at ease, so she nodded and agreed.
That's okay, my father has a lot of connections, so it's better than looking for him like a headless fly.
When Chu Yunxi returned to Fanghua Pavilion, it was already midnight. Lying on her bed, she even thought of more.
A massacre of scholars and an unprecedented natural disaster severely damaged the vitality of the Yunxiao Kingdom. Enemies invaded the country with ferocious force. After years of fighting, the country's generals could not be saved.
The twelve-year-old prince Jun Lingyun saw the suffering of the people and rushed to the battlefield regardless of the emperor's obstruction. He became famous in one battle.
A few years later, when the war on the border gradually subsided, he returned to the court. He couldn't bear to see that the peace that the soldiers had sacrificed their lives for was ruined by corrupt officials. He used thunderous methods to rectify the court, but he got the title of a bloodthirsty Yama, feared by everyone.
In her previous life, she was just like everyone else in the world, thinking that Jun Lingyun was born cruel and unpredictable, and she never tried to understand him. How uncomfortable it must be for him to be misunderstood by the person he loves.
Why do good people have to suffer this kind of torture, but bad people can live with ease?
Concubine Xiao, Duke Xiao's family, Jun Hongyan, and Chu Xueer, she will make them pay with blood, this time, together with their mentor's share.
Chu Yunxi received too much news that night, and every one of them shocked her. Extremely tired, she fell into a deep sleep with grief and anger. In her dream, the scenery was still the same, and it was still the towering library tower.
She picked up Jun Lingyun's biography, put it down, and picked it up again. In the end, she didn't open it. She should let everything about her past life be buried deep in her heart. Only in this way could she have the courage to face Jun Lingyun and stay with him for the rest of her life.
Carefully putting down the biography, she flipped through other books. When she was bored in her previous life, like her mentor, she was always with books. With her extensive reading, she was still amazed by the books here, astronomy and geography,
All-encompassing.
She suddenly felt blessed and had a bold idea. If she could take all these books out of her dream, could she build an academy? An academy as glorious as Sikong Academy.
When the time comes, I invite you to come back and take charge, which will fulfill his ambition and help the Yunxiao Kingdom train outstanding talents from all walks of life. There is no need to worry about the Yunxiao Kingdom not being strong.
A grand plan gradually took shape in her mind. The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. She put a medical book with a diagram of the human body in her arms and opened the door anxiously.
Sure enough, as soon as the white light flashed, she had a dream. She quickly touched her chest. Alas, a dream is just a dream. It is an illusion and brings nothing out.
Fortunately, she has always had a good memory and can remember something after reading it once or twice.
"Xiaolian, Xiaolian!"
"Miss, it's not dawn yet, please sleep a little longer." Xiao Lian came in, rubbing her eyes.
"Good Xiao Lian, don't sleep. Quickly prepare pen and paper for Miss. I need a large piece of paper."
"Oh~" Xiaolian was still a little dazed, so she brought Chu Yunxi a pen, ink, paper and inkstone as instructed.
It looks like what Chu Yunxi painted seems to be a human skeleton.
"Miss, what are you drawing? It's scary."
"If you're afraid, just squint for a while."
Chu Yunxi glanced at Xiaolian with a smile. It was difficult for her to wake her up so early.
Chu Yunxi couldn't wait to verify the authenticity of the books in the dream.
