The Dragon from Hell

When he heard this, Gongsun Miao had already clenched his fists.

The "daughter of my subordinate" mentioned by Ye You was Zhang.

But he gritted his teeth and refused to interrupt Ye You, letting him continue.

"After the old Duke of Zhenguo knew about this, he didn't react much at the time, nor did he stop the two from continuing to interact..."

The old Duke of Zhenguo knew that the two were in love, and asking them to separate at this time might have a counterproductive effect.

So he simply let Gongsun Chao go to the battlefield, which was both a tempering and a temporary separation of the two for a period of time, thinking that distance might change the relationship between the two.

But who knew that Zhang was deeply in love with Gongsun Chao and actually ran to the border secretly.

Gongsun Chao really hid Zhang and kept her by his side to serve him personally.

After Gongsun Chao returned from his meritorious service, the old Duke of Zhenguo learned about this and called Gongsun Chao to the study to talk all night long.

The content of the conversation between the two was unknown to outsiders, but the next day, Zhang returned to her home, and Gongsun Chao, with his military merits, asked to marry the princess as the son of the Duke of Zhenguo.

At this point, everything was almost clear.

After a year of pursuit, Gongsun Chao finally moved Gongsun Miao's mother, and the union of the two was envied by almost everyone.

But no one would have thought that even during this year, Gongsun Chao had been in private contact with Zhang. Because of Gongsun Chao's helplessness, the two had the taste of a pair of star-crossed lovers, and they became more affectionate.

Later, Zhang's father died on the battlefield. At that time, he clearly only entrusted Gongsun Chao to arrange a good home for Zhang. When he was sent back to Wangshendu, it became Zhang's father who asked Gongsun Chao to marry Zhang for saving his life.

In this way, Gongsun Chao "reluctantly" married Zhang.

On the surface, the two of them were just old friends who had to get together to repay their gratitude. In secret, they were actually inseparable and often met in Gongsun Chao's study.

Because Gongsun Miao's mother knew that she was from the royal family, Gongsun Chao's study was full of his military secrets.

For the sake of family harmony and to prevent Gongsun Chao from worrying, Gongsun Miao's mother never approached Gongsun Chao's study, just to avoid suspicion.

But she didn't know that her knowledge and reasoning would bring her the final tragedy.

If Gongsun Hao had not been born, perhaps such false happiness would continue.

But since Zhang gave birth to Gongsun Hao, Gongsun Chao decided to give them a name, and he couldn't let the son born by his favorite person always regard himself as a bastard.

So, at the beginning, he made a lot of assassinations, all of which were aimed at Gongsun Miao.

As long as Gongsun Miao died, the Duke's wife would not be able to bear the blow, and then she could do something logically, and it would not take long for both the legitimate son and the main wife to be dealt with.

But the Duke's wife was born in the royal family after all, and in addition to the guards of the Duke's Mansion, she also had her own people.

Moreover, the eldest princess really loved her grandson, and secretly prepared several monks for him as guards to protect his safety.

Although it was an assassination, if there was an assassin who surpassed the guards around Gongsun Miao, it would definitely be unusual.

After all, looking at the entire Dongli Kingdom, only the royal family can be compared with the guards of the Zhenguogong Mansion.

The same is true in reverse. Only the Zhenguogong Mansion can compare with the royal guards.

It is almost impossible to break through the siege and kill Gongsun Miao, unless there is an insider.

Therefore, it was impossible to kill Gongsun Miao, so Gongsun Chao took the initiative to propose to send Gongsun Miao to the Immortal Gate for a few years, claiming that it was for his safety.

Originally, the Duke's wife was reluctant to let him go, but the assassinations in recent years have increased, and their love for Gongsun Miao has become a weapon for others to target the Duke's Mansion.

For the sake of her husband and the children, the Duke's wife reluctantly agreed to send Gongsun Miao away.

Indeed, as Gongsun Miao knew, the Duke's wife was really heartbroken after Gongsun Miao left, and fell ill that day, but in fact, the illness was not that serious.

The real cause of her death was the chronic poison that had been continuously added to her food every day for the past five years.

As for what happened later, they should understand without further explanation.

Once the Duke's wife died, how the position of the main house and the prince would be operated was just a matter of Gongsun Chao's thoughts.

As for why Gongsun Miao was not allowed to come back five years ago, it was because Gongsun Miao happened to have awakened his spirit bones at that time. If he came back, coupled with the royal family's high regard for Gongsun Miao, it would be almost impossible to change the candidate for the crown prince.

And at that time Gongsun Miao was also matureMany people in the mansion have not been able to deal with them all, fearing that someone would point out to Gongsun Miao that something was wrong.

By then, the entire Zhenguo Mansion would be ruined.

So Gongsun Chao concealed the news of Gongsun Miao's mother's death, and naturally used his beloved wife as an excuse to kill and send away those who knew about it.

As for what role Zhang played in this... As Gongsun Chao's bedside person, and the person Gongsun Chao put on the tip of his heart, if she was really just a person who was indifferent to fame and fortune, then how could she not stop Gongsun Chao from killing his wife?

Even in the years when Gongsun Chao had not yet married the princess, Zhang kept asking Gongsun Chao to marry her.

Later, she acted in front of others and cried behind their backs, and then let the servants inadvertently reveal that the lady secretly withheld the daily food in her yard, or let Gongsun Hao be "accidentally" pushed down by Gongsun Miao when they were playing, and then happened to be seen by Gongsun Chao...

Hearing this, Gongsun Miao's face was as white as paper, and his body was trembling slightly, and then the whole person began to tremble violently.

He stared at the stone table with bloodshot eyes.

"So, it was not Zhang who really killed my mother, but Gongsun Chao!"

Every word of Gongsun Miao was almost squeezed out from his teeth.

He knew that the night traveler in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person, otherwise he would never serve Mo Wenyuan.

Although he didn't know Mo Wenyuan, the other party was the junior brother of the master's master. To put it bluntly, there was no need to lie to him.

It is even possible that Mo Wenyuan and even Mo Wenshan already knew these things, but they didn't tell him because they were afraid that he couldn't accept it.

He didn't need to doubt the truth of Ye You's words. After all, the attitudes of Gongsun Chao and Zhang Shi and others today had already explained a lot of things.

In addition to the words he heard in secret last night, the truth was basically confirmed.

It turned out that he and his mother had been living in a huge scam!
