Chapter 839 Secret
Because of this, Yin's second sister-in-law hated Yin Qiling.
Although they were the ones who wanted to use their son to impersonate him at the time, but in the end their son died, how could they not put the blame on Yin Qiling?
Because of this, Yin Qiling, who was already depressed, blamed herself even more, became upset, and her health deteriorated day by day.
After the rebellion was quelled, she no longer thought about sending her son out of the palace, but she felt even more painful because her wish was not fulfilled.
Fortunately, the Ninth Prince was intelligent, clever and likable, so she forced herself to focus on educating her son.
Later, Emperor Qianwu discovered that his son was still alive. He was furious and felt that he had been fooled. He ran to Yin Qiling to ask for an explanation. But when he saw Yin Qiling, he could no longer blame her.
Because at that time, Yin Qiling was already at the end of her strength.
The once lively girl in fine clothes and riding a horse seemed to be swallowed up by the love and hatred in the deep palace, and her body became emaciated and pale.
Yin Qiling endured it again and again. For the sake of her son's future, she finally did not tell him about her idea of wanting him to recognize Xiao Huaijin's branch. However, with such a grown-up son suddenly appearing out of nowhere, Emperor Qianwu would definitely investigate what happened back then.
After knowing Yin Qiling's plan, the soft-hearted feeling he had originally felt turned into even more disappointment.
Later, before she could even last a year, Yin Qiling died.
Although Emperor Qianwu often visited the Ninth Prince at the beginning, as a young child without a mother to protect him in the palace, and Yin Qiling had no rank, one can imagine how hard the Ninth Prince's life was.
Wang Xi sighed: "Speaking of which, the Ninth Prince is also pitiful. Since Madam Yin passed away, the Ninth Prince has been bullied in the palace and his life is not easy."
Because Emperor Qianwu would also come to visit, the servants did not dare to humiliate him too much, but there were many nobles in the palace, and there were always many people who were not afraid. What's more, there were many ways to torture and humiliate people in this deep mansion, so why bother to offend His Majesty?
He saw it twice.
But the one who bullied him at that time was Concubine Rou's son, the former Third Prince Xiao Heyu.
It was impossible for him to offend Concubine Rou, who was at the peak of her career, for the sake of a powerless and unprotected prince.
Shen Shu had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he never thought that there would be such an incident.
But think about it, history books are magnificent and vast, but no matter how wise and powerful an emperor is, his life is only recorded in a few words in history books. But in fact, there are countless lively little people who are struggling desperately to live their lives.
Shen Shuyi retracted his thoughts: "What happened next?"
Wang Xi said: "Later, I only knew that Your Majesty had met His Majesty the Ninth Prince several times, and each time, His Majesty was impressed by His Majesty, and His Majesty seemed to admire him very much."
However, doing so would inevitably cause dissatisfaction among some people and make the Ninth Prince's situation even more difficult.
However, in Wang Xi's opinion, the Ninth Prince was definitely not an ordinary person. Later, His Majesty allowed him to study in the study and also hired a martial arts master to teach him martial arts.
But the good times did not last long. Within two years, during an autumn hunt, this nameless and unofficial ninth prince never returned.
"Never came back?" Shen Shuyi frowned.
"Yes." Wang Xi didn't know much.
All we know is that during the autumn hunt, the Ninth Prince seemed to have been plotted against and fell into the tiger's belly. When the imperial guards arrived, the Ninth Prince had been torn into pieces. For this, His Majesty was heartbroken for a long time.
"So, the Ninth Prince died in that autumn hunt?" Shen Shuyi frowned.
"Yes."
Shen Shuyi said nothing and thought for a long time.
This matter involves the secret of the Yin family, the old story between Emperor Qianwu and his concubine, and even the rebellion of that year...
No wonder nothing has been found after so long.
It seems that Jiang Li did not find out nothing, but because the information was confused, he repeatedly overturned his previous research. In the end, he couldn't even figure out whether the Ninth Prince was dead or alive, so he found nothing.
"How many people in the palace know about these things?" Shen Shuyi asked.
Wang Xi shook his head: "Not much. When His Majesty first took care of His Majesty, he did not reveal his identity, so the two of them seemed to be close friends regardless of age. Therefore, many palace people do not know this."
Shen Shuyi was disappointed. That was right.
However, this clue seemed to be cut off at the autumn hunt.
Moreover, this matter seems to be more difficult to investigate than in the palace.
However, if this is the case, Shen Shuyi becomes more certain that if the Ninth Prince had not died, the person who killed Xiao Tingshan and ascended to the throne after the rebellion was quelled in his previous life would have been this Ninth Prince!
After getting the answer he wanted, Shen Shuyi didn't stay any longer.
Wang Xi looked at Shen Shuyi's back and couldn't help but get anxious: "Princess, please save me! Princess, this is all I know!"
Shen Shuyi ignored him and walked out of the prison with Tong Guan.
Shen Shuyi whispered, "You said before that Concubine Duan has been childless because His Majesty didn't want it to happen. Is that true?"
"Yes, Wang Xi confessed to this two days ago." Tong Guan said in a low voice.
Among the four concubines, Concubine Duan could be said to be the least favored by Emperor Qianwu. However, at that time, Concubine Duan's family controlled a large number of troops, so Emperor Qianwu had to take Concubine Duan into the harem.
However, Concubine Duan was five or six years older than Emperor Qianwu and had an ordinary appearance, so it was natural that she was not favored by him.
Therefore, in order to prevent the monopoly of power by external relatives, Emperor Qianwu would naturally not let Concubine Duan give birth to his own son. So, according to Wang Xi, Emperor Qianwu secretly fed Concubine Duan a drug that would make her childless.
"If you want to protect Wang Xi, you can use this as a gimmick, and just think that Concubine Jing has found evidence that Wang Xi once plotted to murder Concubine Duan. In order not to betray Emperor Qianwu, Wang Xi pushed the matter onto Concubine Rou, but because of this, he was controlled by Concubine Jing."
Tong Guan thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "I understand."
Shen Shuyi nodded and said nothing more. In this way, Wang Xi's informing Concubine Jing was, in a sense, all out of loyalty to the emperor.
Emperor Qianwu would show leniency to Wang Xi, considering his many years of service.

On the other side, the Sixth Prince's Mansion.
Xiao Tingshan looked at the mother Gu in front of him and calmed down. His broken body was indeed still very weak, but he had to admit that in the past two days, he did feel nourished continuously.
This made Xiao Tingshan in a good mood, and he finally felt that there was some hope.
At this moment, Chen Zhong knocked on the door and said, "Your Highness, the elder of the Li clan wants to see you."
Xiao Tingshan narrowed his eyes, closed the lid of the porcelain Gu, then opened the secret room in the bedroom, hid the porcelain Gu inside, and then opened the door.
"Go to the study."
"Yes."
Soon, Xiao Tingshan sat opposite the elders of the Li clan, his face gentle: "Grandfather, you came here so late at night, but what's the urgent matter?"
The elder said in a deep voice: "The extent of your body's damage is far beyond imagination. There is one thing I forgot to tell you before."
"Grandfather, please speak." Xiao Tingshan remained calm.
"If you want to repair your body faster, you can plant two or three more sub-Gu insects in your body. This way, the benefits to your body will be doubled when several Gu insects nourish you together."
Xiao Tingshan was stunned. He looked at the old man and asked, "Really?"
"nature."
