Chapter 31 The Truth

"I heard something that Chen Zimo's mother's name seemed to have been changed. The person holding the axe was named Cheng Jieyu Jiazhen." Chen Ziqi deliberately said it not very clearly, and it was a little confused and more credible.

"Jiazhen?" The second prince frowned slightly. When the new imperial concubine entered the palace, he followed the queen to read the list. The concubine Cheng Jie was from Su Xin Sect, so she paid special attention. At that time, the queen said that the people of Su Xin Sect were named Su in this generation. This woman must have been named Cheng Ye Yao before entering the palace. Now she has not even changed her real name to the palace. She really forgot her roots.

How could it be called Jiazhen?

The second prince, who is already fourteen years old, has a very high judgment ability, and in a few words, many things are reminded of: "What else?"

Chen Ziqi thought about it and seemed a little hesitant: "There is another thing, brother, don't say it was me, otherwise Chen Zimo would blame me."

"That's natural. We're secret reports. Have you seen anyone telling them about the secret reports?" The second prince smiled and coaxed him.

"It's... Cheng Jieyu often beat Chen Zimo, and his arms were green and purple," Chen Ziqi waved the snacks in his hand with some angrily, "I won't give him food."

"Bang!" The second prince slapped the table, not sure whether he was angry or excited.

"Second Brother, what's wrong with you?" Chen Ziqi shrank his neck and looked at him timidly.

"It's okay, I'm scared you, I'm angry," the second prince took a deep breath, "Abusing the prince is a serious crime. Zimo is also my younger brother, so he must not watch him suffer."

"That's his mother. He refuses to say it. Don't say it was me. He asked me to swear." Chen Ziqi emphasized again.

"Okay, I promise not to say it. I whispered to ask my mother to check it out," the second prince thought for a while, and then coaxed Chen Ziqi, "Xiao Qiken tells the second brother that this is right, and the second brother will protect you."

"Hehe..." Chen Ziqi scratched his head and finished the snack in his hand, "Well, this is so delicious, what is it?"

"This is the osmanthus cake, with a pastry." The second prince asked someone to pack a box of puff pastry osmanthus cake for him, and then stuffed him some eye marbles, reminding him to come and play when he has time.

Chen Ziqi hugged a bunch of things and couldn't stop talking happily, and responded quickly.

After Chen Ziqi left, the gentle smile on the second prince immediately closed the face, pondered for a long time, turned around and walked towards the Fengyi Palace Master Hall to reads;.

"You mean, Concubine Cheng may be a fake?" The queen was very surprised.

"This is my son's guess. In theory, before Cheng Jieyu entered Suxin Sect, he should have been called Cheng Jiayao, but Cheng Zhou called her Jiazhen. The queen mother might as well send someone to check it out. Is there a woman named Cheng Jiazhen in the Cheng family?" The second prince pointed to the list of concubines and said.

"Can it be that the sixth prince heard it wrong?" The queen still felt a little incredible. When she took the imperial concubine back to the palace, the Jinwu Guard went to investigate and investigate. Moreover, the women offered by various sects were all recorded.

"Don't say it out loud, and there will be no impact on Chacha. Cheng Jie's concubine is so rude, she will always be punished." Only in front of her mother did the second prince show a little bit of a young mind.

"Well, I will ask someone to investigate. As for the abuse and beating, I will ask someone to do it. Don't interfere, have you heard?" The queen told the second prince.

Although there are now sects in the world and most places are also controlled by sects, there are still government officials in various places. Everyone's names and hometowns will be registered, and there are records in the local governments for life and death marriage.

Although the Cheng family has been destroyed, as a former local family, the records in the yamen are still relatively complete. With the empress's handwriting, it is naturally no problem to check the household registration. Not long after, the Cheng family's files were placed in Fengyi Palace.

The Cheng family really has two women, Cheng Jiayao and Cheng Jiazhen. Cheng Jiazhen is the legitimate daughter of the head of the family, Cheng Ji, and the pearl in the palm of his wife. The Cheng Jiayao, who was presented to the emperor, is the concubine daughter of the second brother of the head of the family.

According to the document, about seven years ago, Cheng Jiayao's household registration was transferred from the Cheng family to Suxin Sect. The Cheng family had an additional child named Cheng Mo. Cheng Jiazhen died in the same year, and the cause of the death was written as "falling off the cliff". There was a note from the master below, saying that several sisters went out to play and accidentally fell off the cliff. Because the corpse was difficult to find, the case was closed in a hurry.

After that, the Cheng family was destroyed, and no one mentioned this. In this dynasty full of revenge, the yamen was not very useful to the people of the Jianghu.

The queen used her fingers with her exquisite turquoise ring to hit the file in front of her one by one.

When the emperor was traveling abroad, the women offered by various sects were just tributes and toys, and most of them would not get a title. The Cheng family would of course offer a worthless concubine daughter. Su Xinzong has always boasted of justice and kindness. If he did such shameless things, he naturally had to cover up and compensate the Cheng family. This compensation was to accept the woman who was offered as his disciple.

For small families, being able to become a direct disciple of a large sect is a great honor, and their entire family will change. The so-called "wine-like face, wealth" will move people's hearts...

"If I was not mistaken, the Cheng family killed the real Cheng Jiayao and gave Cheng Jiazhen the opportunity to go to Suxin Sect," the queen frowned. She came from a famous family and couldn't stand these people. She slapped the table with a slap. "I'm still so unscrupulous. Do you really think others don't know?"

After listening to the second prince’s retelling, Chen Ziqi returned to Qingyun Palace and was stunned for a long time.

"Jiu." Danyi crawled out of her clothes and jumped onto the table.

"Divine Chicken, do you think this famous family is really that important?" Chen Ziqi put his chin on the table and blew at the little red bird, "If you want to talk about your background in everything, those with low background deserve to be bullied by those with high background..."

Everything is natural, but it is because of the complexity of human hearts that have caused all kinds of things in the world. The little red bird shook the chaotic hair straight, pecked Chen Ziqi's temples, and cried twice.

Chen Ziqi told Chen Zimo the news he got, and Chen Zimo's eyes were red at that time.

"Stop crying, at least that evil woman is not your mother." Chen Ziqi didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only pat his shoulder.

Chen Zimo nodded slowly. If his mother was alive, she would not have treated him like Cheng Jiazhen. Wipe her tears, and Heidan's eyes were more energetic than before: "So, I'm not a person that even my mother would hate;."

"How could my mother hate her children? Your mother must be like a little fairy, trying her best to protect you, fan you in summer, and cook ginger soup for you in winter..." Chen Ziqi said, unable to help but shed tears. One year the little fairy was seriously ill and almost died. At that time, he thought, if there was no mother, who would make clothes for him, and who would ask him about the cold and coldness.

After returning, Chen Ziqi hugged Chang E for a long time and refused to let go.

"Little bastard, are you doing something wrong?" Chang E pulled his ears.

"I……"

"Chir!" Before Chen Ziqi could speak, the little red bird squeezed between them stopped working and struggled to jump out.

"..." The good atmosphere was destroyed. Chen Ziqi hugged Xiao Maoqi, grimaced and ran away.

Two days later, Chen Ziqi went to find the second prince again and begged him to help check the cliff where Cheng Jiayao fell.

"If I can find out, I will call Heidan to be your younger brother." Chen Ziqi patted his chest and said.

The second prince pursed his lips and smiled. This was not a difficult task, so he agreed. Half a month later, the result was achieved. The cliff was near the Cheng family mansion, and the cliff of Bailu Mountain Wangchuan.

Chen Ziqi led Chen Zimo to Fengyi Palace and kowtowed to the second prince.

"This is not allowed," the second prince quickly pulled Chen Zimo up, "We are brothers, so we must not give this great gift to me."

"Thank you, Brother II, I have recorded this kindness." Heidan spoke very slowly, which made people feel particularly credible.

The second prince was a little happy and even said he didn't have to worry about it.

"Brother Second Emperor, we will both listen to you from now on. Let me tell you another secret. Now he is quietly learning kung fu from Cheng Zhou, and he is calling me... Anyway, he has learned very well." Chen Ziqi carried a elbow of black eggs.

"Yes, I will hit anyone who I ask my second emperor to hit in the future!" Chen Zimo said plainly.

I thought I had just taken an ordinary brother, but I didn't expect there would be such a surprise. The second prince was very happy and pretended to be angry and said to them. How could he learn other skills secretly? Then he agreed and would help cover up and ask Chen Zimo to study hard.

After leaving Fengyi Palace, Chen Ziqi lowered his head and kissed the little red bird that was rising from his collar, jumping in front of him.

Chen Zimo followed him, walked for a long time, and suddenly said, "Chen Ziqi, I will only listen to you in the future."

Chen Ziqi stopped, turned around and jumped back, patted Heidan on the shoulder: "That's right, follow my brother and have a bright future!"

"You are my brother." Chen Zimo corrected.

"No, I'm the boss, you have to call me brother!" Chen Ziqi said in a mess.

"Okay, Brother Seven." Chen Zimo said submissively.

"Hey!" Chen Ziqi was very proud. The name "Seventh Brother" is good, and he sounds like a tough character.

Heidan got the answer here, but the queen had not yet received a satisfactory result. As New Year's Eve was about to be around, the emperor asked about the New Year's Eve family dinner.

"I originally wanted Concubine Cheng to dance with her sword. The imperial concubine felt it was not suitable, so I invited a troupe to sing a play." The queen smiled gracefully.

"Oh? What kind of drama is it?" Emperor Zhenglong asked curiously.

"The emperor will know then." The queen covered her lips and chuckled.

Such a wonderful drama must be sung for everyone.
