Chapter 812 Restoring Memory
Su Tingwan is actually quite stupid. She can thrive in the palace because she has the support of Concubine Su and the powerful Su family. No one expected that she would get involved with Ji Chen. No wonder Su Tingwan collected Ji Chen's body when he died. It turns out there was something fishy going on.
However, she clearly remembered that Xie Shang gave everything for Su Tingwan, and all his humiliation of her was for Su Tingwan.
She always thought that Xie Shang loved Su Tingwan to the core. Could it be that she was wrong? Xie Shang still loved himself the most. The Su family had military power, so he obeyed Su Tingwan in everything.
Later, in order to consolidate his throne, he frequently took concubines, and his harem was full of beautiful women.
The downfall of the Su family was also something Xie Shang had planned for a long time!
Jiang Fenghua met Xiao Yu again, and only then did she realize that two years had passed since her death. It turned out that the Su family rebelled two years after her death and was wiped out by Xie Shang in one fell swoop.
Xiao Yu changed his clothes. His face was covered with beard and his eyes were as cold as a sharp blade.
He was met by...
Because the light was too dim, Jiang Fenghua only saw clearly that the woman under the cloak was Qin Yunyan when he walked closer.
Xiao Yu said in a deep voice: "I am here to fulfill my promise. The Su family has been destroyed, and Queen Su is dead. Now the harem is the domain of Concubine Qin. I have done what I promised you, and from now on we owe each other nothing."
Qin Yunyan said: "Then the Japanese palace told you the news of Jiang Fenghua's death. You could have broken your promise."
"I don't like to owe favors to others."
"Mr. Xiao's behavior makes me think that he is the only decent man in the world." Qin Yunyan stared at Xiao Yu infatuatedly. "I didn't expect that Mr. Xiao would be even more manly 20 years later. We can continue to cooperate in the future. If you still want to be an official, I can ask the emperor..."
He said: "We cannot work together if we have different philosophies."
Xiao Yu had sword-like eyebrows that were furrowed into the shape of a "川" character. He didn't look ugly even though he had an uncropped beard. He was too lazy to talk to Qin Yunyan about other things. Her father was a corrupt official, but Qin Yunyan took the money her father had embezzled and surrendered to the emperor.
The emperor also symbolically punished the Qin family. In fact, the emperor's punishment on the Qin family was not severe. As long as Qin Tai was in office, he continued to embezzle.
Qin Yunyan smiled and said, "Young Master Xiao is really infatuated with her. She is dead. Even if she is not dead, she is still the emperor's woman. You can't dream of her. You also know that there will never be a chance for you two. Why don't you consider someone else?"
Xiao Yu said coldly: "Has Concubine Qin forgotten how Queen Su died? Does Concubine Qin also want to follow Queen Su's old path?"
Qin Yunyan looked coldly, "Xiao Yu, don't be ungrateful. You are a criminal, what do you have to be proud of? You helped the Jiang family and put yourself in trouble. Do you think it's worth it?"
"Whether it's worth it or not has nothing to do with the Empress."
Xiao Yu said this and turned and left.
Qin Yunyan was ignored by Xiao Yu, and she was furious, "Xiao Yu, do you think her enemies are only Queen Su and the Su family?"
Xiao Yu stopped and listened to Qin Yunyan saying, "Isn't the emperor her biggest enemy? It is because of this emperor that Jiang Fenghua has lived a miserable life for half her life."
Xiao Yu clenched his fists. The emperor married her but did not cherish her, leading to her miserable life and finally her tragic death.
Xiao Yu didn't say anything and just left.
It was only then that Jiang Fenghua realized that Xiao Yu was an official in the court. She was imprisoned because she spoke up for the Jiang family and angered the emperor.
How did he escape? She guessed that it must be with the help of Qin Yunyan. The two of them have been in contact all the time. It seems that Qin Yunyan still has evil intentions towards Xiao Yu and has been paying attention to him.
Could it be that Qin Yunyan also told Xiao Yu the news that she died in Chenxi Palace two years ago, so Xiao Yu found her body in the mass grave so promptly?
She was very grateful and touched for Xiao Yu's contribution to the Jiang family and his help to her. She also didn't want to implicate Xiao Yu and didn't want to owe him anything anymore.
Fortunately, in this life, Xiao Yu can live a normal life and not be implicated by the Jiang family's affairs.
Jiang Fenghua knew what happened after his death, and also knew that more than ten years later, the Great Zhou Kingdom was destroyed by the Northern Xiao Kingdom.
She didn't expect that Xie Shang would become so decadent. Why was he holding the lotus lantern in his hand?
Jiang Fenghua remembered that this was the birthday gift she had made for Xie Shang in her previous life. It took her a lot of effort. She thought that the lotus lantern would never fall into Xie Shang's hands, and he would never know that she had secretly celebrated his birthday.
In his later years, Xie Shang seemed to be particularly fond of lotus lanterns. He treated them like treasures and was reluctant to let go of them even when the lanterns were already broken.
Jiang Fenghua also knew that the Great Zhou Dynasty was not destroyed during his reign, but after Qin Yunyan's son ascended the throne, the Great Zhou Dynasty quickly declined and was defeated by the Northern Xiao Kingdom.
In fact, Da Zhou and Bei Xiao Kingdom fought countless times, but Xie Shang never let Bei Xiao Kingdom invade Da Zhou. He protected the people of Da Zhou and also tried hard to be a good emperor.
After the Northern Xiao Kingdom broke into the Great Zhou Dynasty's palace, Jiang Fenghua saw Xiao Yu again in the crowd.
He went to the Jiang family's tomb to pay homage and even burned many poems in front of the Jiang family's tomb.
"Miss Third, I have traveled extensively over the years. The world outside is really vast. I have been to places that are inaccessible on foot and can be reached by boat. I have also seen people who look different from us in the Central Plains. Some of them have blonde hair and blue eyes, and there is a country where people all have blue eyes. They are not monsters, but humans...
Third Miss, all your enemies are dead, and the man who harmed you all your life is also dead. It's a pity that I didn't avenge you personally. I admit that I don't have the ability to fight him..."
Xiao Yu chattered in front of her grave about what he had seen and heard over the years.
Jiang Fenghua had read many books, and she had longed for the wider world in the books, but she had been trapped in the deep palace all her life and it was impossible for her to get out.
Xiao Yu never married or had children in his entire life. He traveled all over the mountains and rivers alone.
When Jiang Fenghua woke up, she was still on the couch in the side hall. Wuxin was standing by her side. Seeing her wake up, Wuxin asked anxiously, "My queen, you're awake. How do you feel?"
Jiang Fenghua's eyes were cold, and his voice was even colder, "Wuxin?"
"Empress?" Wuxin was not sure whether the one who woke up was the Empress who had recovered her memory, or the Empress who had lost her memory.
She was about to get up from the couch, "How long have I slept?"
"It's been an hour. I've been worried sick. Madam, you..."
"I'm fine. You must keep this a secret. Don't tell anyone, including Hongxiu and Lianye. I don't want them to worry. They made me lose my memory for my own good." Jiang Fenghua said in a deep voice.
Wu Xin's eyes were slightly red, "So the queen has recovered her memory."
