Chapter 716: Concubine Li's affair
Ji Yuntang thought about it and realized that he had heard it from Ji Nanchuan.
One time when he was drunk, Ji Yuntang happened to pass by Ji Nanchuan's room, and she heard him calling Xia Chuhe's name.
Ji Yuntang didn't know who Xia Chuhe was at that time, but later he found out that Ji Nanchuan had a white moonlight when he was young.
The two had a good relationship, but later Bai Yueguang suddenly left without saying goodbye. He waited for her for three years, but Bai Yueguang never came back.
Ji Nanchuan had no choice but to marry Meng.
After hearing what Xia Chuhe said, Ji Yuntang realized that she was Ji Nanchuan's white moonlight when he was young.
Old Madam Ji highly recognized Xia Chuhe back then, even though the other party's family background could not compare to that of the Yongning Marquisate.
On the contrary, she belittled Meng to the point of being worthless.
If Meng had not given birth to three sons for Ji Nanchuan, Madam Ji would have asked Ji Nanchuan to divorce her long ago.
Ji Yuntang was very puzzled when she thought of this. She asked, "Since Madam Xia is already discussing marriage with Ji Nanchuan, why does she want to leave the capital?"
I heard that the Ji Nanchuan back then is completely different from the Ji Nanchuan now.
He was not as snobbish as he is now. Instead, he loved Xia Chuhe deeply.
At that time, if Xia Chuhe had not left the capital, she would definitely be the wife of the Yongning Marquis' Mansion.
How could there be any place for the Meng family?
Ji Yuntang didn’t understand. They were obviously in love, so why did Xia Chuhe leave?
The next second, Xia Chuhe told her the answer.
Her eyes were red, and she said with a choked voice: "This matter is a long story. Let me slowly tell His Royal Highness the Night King and the Night King's Concubine."
"I have asked my parents many times before, we are living well in the capital, why do we have to leave suddenly and move our whole family overnight?"
"But my parents didn't tell me anything. They just said that business in the capital was too difficult and they wanted to move out to do business."
"I know that's just an excuse they made up. We have been doing business in the capital for so many years, it's impossible for us to move away whenever we want. Something must have happened at home that I don't know about, forcing them to leave."
When Xia Chuhe said this, a hint of sadness was already on her face.
She said with red eyes: "Later, on the way out of the capital, my parents were murdered by a group of unknown men in black."
"In order to protect the women's safety, they were hacked dozens of times by the men in black, and their bodies were covered in blood."
"I hid behind a tree and watched this scene. Before he died, my father used lip language to remind me not to return to the capital."
"Although I didn't understand, I still did what they said. Then I met my ex-husband, and we got married and had two children."
"In March this year, I was sorting out the relics left by my parents in my room and accidentally found a jade pendant."
"Originally, I thought it was just an ordinary jade pendant, but later I discovered that it actually contained a secret."
"There was a switch under the jade pendant. After I turned it on, I found a note hidden inside."
When Xia Chuhe said this, he reached out and took out a jade pendant from his waist.
He gently opened the jade pendant in front of Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe.
There was a pale yellow note inside.
Xia Chuhe took out the note, presented it with both hands, and handed it to Ji Yuntang.
She said, "Princess Ye, please look."
Ji Yuntang took the note, opened it, and was struck by lightning by the contents.
I saw a line of small words written on the note.
[Concubine Li and Prince Nan Xiao secretly met on the street corner and they had an affair. ]
When Luo Junhe saw Ji Yuntang's expression, he realized that things were not simple, and he hurriedly glanced at the contents of the note.
It would have been fine if you hadn't looked at it, but once you looked at the teacup in his hand, it slipped and fell to the ground.
Luo Junhe: "!!!"
His eyes widened slightly and he gasped.
How is it possible that Concubine Li and Prince Nan Xiao are having an affair?
King Nan Xiao had resigned from his official position and voluntarily left the court more than 20 years ago.
Over the years, he has never been involved in any affairs of the court, no matter how big or small.
Even if it was the Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner or the New Year reunion, and Emperor Jingyang took the initiative to send someone to invite him to the palace, he would politely refuse.
He said that he had adapted to the free and unrestrained life outside and was not used to the social engagements in the palace, and hoped that Emperor Jinyang would be more understanding of him.
Although he is of royal blood, King Nan Xiao makes himself an outsider and does not participate in any activities related to the royal family.
Moreover, over all these years, he has never married and has no children.
It is precisely because of this that Emperor Jingyang is very confident in him.
In the eyes of Emperor Jingyang, Prince Nan Xiao was already an idle prince with no power or influence and posed no threat to him.
What's more, the other party has no children, so he has even less to worry about.
Luo Junhe originally thought that King Nan Xiao was just as others said, completely giving up power and no longer coveting beauty.
But unexpectedly, it said that there was an unclear relationship between him and Concubine Li.
After Luo Junhe came back to his senses, he asked Xia Chuhe with a serious face.
"Mrs. Xia, where did you get this note from?"
He could see that the paper had turned pale yellow and the writing on it had blurred, indicating that it was quite old.
Xia Chuhe said: "This was left to me by my parents. Over the years, no one except me has ever touched this jade pendant, so Your Highness Ye Wang does not need to worry about whether it has been replaced by someone else."
"At first, I didn't know why my parents left the capital overnight. It wasn't until I found this note this year that I realized what was going on."
Ji Yuntang frowned and said, "You mean, your parents discovered the secret of Prince Nan Xiao and Concubine Li's secret meeting, and then Concubine Li and Prince Nan Xiao sent people to kill them?"
As soon as Ji Yuntang finished speaking, Xia Chuhe immediately knelt on the ground.
She said, "Your Highness the Night King, Madam Night Princess, I know this matter is of great importance, so I dare not hide it from you two."
"I don't know whether the death of my parents has anything to do with Prince Nan Xiao and Concubine Li, but I know that their sudden decision to leave the capital must have something to do with this matter."
"I also got some clues about this matter from Madam Meng of Yongning Marquis's Mansion."
"According to Mrs. Meng, on the night when the Xia family moved from the capital, she saw a group of men in black searching the streets for the whereabouts of my parents."
"Later, it was Meng who informed the group of men in black about the whereabouts of my parents and pointed them in the direction of my home."
