Chapter 678 The real mastermind

Pei Qingyan frowned slightly.

His lips moved.

In the end, he only said three words: "I'm sorry."

"It's not me you're sorry for, it's Mingzhu." Xie Qingshan said,

"If it weren't for you, Mingzhu wouldn't have fallen into such a miserable state, and our lives wouldn't have been ruined in such a mess."

"That's wrong!" Liu Yunzhou said sternly, "Senior Xie, what you said is wrong."

"Pei Qingyan didn't feel sorry for anyone. He couldn't control his own birth, and he didn't ask others to give birth to him. He was the victim of this matter, not the perpetrator."

"What's more, he was just a child at that time, a child of only seven years old. He couldn't control his own life. He couldn't even protect himself. What could he change?"

"Rongrong..." Pei Qingyan held Liu Yunzhou's hand tightly, "Forget it, stop talking."

"Why didn't you say it?" Liu Yunzhou said,

"Why should his anger be transferred to you, who is innocent? This is unfair."

Liu Yunzhou said to Xie Qingshan: "Senior Xie, if I guessed correctly, you must have had a better choice back then.

For example, when Senior Mingzhu asks to return to the palace, you can forcefully take Senior Mingzhu away. You are good at Gu insects, and you can even make Senior Mingzhu completely forget about Pei Qingyan and start a new life.

You had countless ways to take Senior Mingzhu away. You had countless opportunities to take Senior Mingzhu away, but you didn’t. No matter what the reason was, you allowed Senior Mingzhu to do dangerous things.

Senior Mingzhu is dead. The person who killed her was the imperial concubine at the time and had nothing to do with Pei Qingyan. You shouldn't blame Pei Qingyan for Senior Mingzhu's death.

It was Senior Mingzhu who gave birth to Pei Qingyan, and it was Senior Mingzhu who wanted to protect Qingyan. None of you have ever asked Qingyan about his wishes, so why should you blame him for all the mistakes?

Senior Mingzhu is dead, you are incompetent and furious, and you vent your anger on Pei Qingyan who has no idea. I want to ask you, what does Pei Qingyan owe you?What did he do wrong?What reason do you have to hate him? "

Liu Yunzhou's series of words left Xie Qingshan speechless.

Xie Qingshen's lips quivered for a long time.

Finally he murmured: "Yes, I had many ways to take the Pearl away back then, but I believed too much in myself and believed that the Pearl could save the day, which ultimately led to a big mistake.

You are right. The person who felt most sorry for Mingzhu was me. It was me who blamed my incompetence on the child. "

"It's ridiculous." Xie Qingfan said, "I was so hot-headed before that I couldn't even think of this. After being locked up underwater for so many years, I became sober."

"It's a pity that I woke up too late. According to time calculation, your Gu insect..."

"Huh?!" When Xie Qingshan focused his attention on Pei Qingyan, he sighed in surprise.

"What's going on? Why did your Gu worms become two? Your physical condition is so surprising. It's really strange. What happened?"

Liu Yunzhou said on Pei Qingyan's behalf: "Senior Xie, before you ask us, why don't you tell us how you unknowingly controlled the Queen Mother and the Emperor to bewitch you? If I'm not wrong, the Emperor was bewitched and Qingyan became the Regent. By the time, you should have already been under the water."

Xie Qingshan was silent for a while.

"Have you ever played chess?" he asked.

"I should be considered relatively good at Go." Liu Yunzhou said.

Xie Qingshan: "The chess record has been set from the beginning. I like to plan ahead and list out what I want to do, just like planning the chess record. Even if the chess player is not around, the chess record will still proceed according to my plan."

"As long as there are no jumping chess pieces, the chess game will eventually be completed. For example, the emperor's poison, Pei Qingyan's poison, and the splitting of Chiyun Kingdom into three are all within my plan."

Liu Yunzhou felt a chill running down his back.

At the beginning, she thought it was Pei Yunhe's plan to become the regent at the banquet at the cost of being poisoned.

Later, Pei Yunhe revealed his true face, and she learned that there was a mastermind behind Pei Yunhe.

She had always believed that the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes was the mysterious Qintian Supervisor Zheng Xie Yinke who had a close relationship with the emperor.

Of course.

Xie Qingshan told them bluntly,

——He is the one who makes the chess records.

The implication is that he is the real mastermind!

Xie Qingshan is a bit complicated.

He said to Pei Qingyan: "I was obsessed with you at that time and hated you so much that I designed you to become the regent. The condition for you to become the regent was to take poisonous insects.

I know that you will definitely accept it, because you are a person taught by Mingzhu, and you are different from those ungrateful people in the royal family. "

"When I was locked under water, I thought a lot. Maybe I calmed down and figured out the things that I had done before. I regret it very much, especially for setting you up.

I let you be burdened by the Gu insects and become a useless person. I have betrayed Mingzhu's trust and my promise. I regret it very much, but it is too late. I can't get out. The chess pieces on the chessboard can only proceed step by step. "

"Fortunately, you seem to be fine, okay, okay..."

Xie Qingshan said several times in a row that it was okay.

Pei Qingyan said nothing.

He just looked at Xie Qingshan quietly.

Xie Qingshan failed to get a response from Pei Qingyan, which was a bit embarrassing.

"Is there anything else you want to know?" Xie Qingshan said, "I will do my best to tell you."

Pei Qingyan's mood has calmed down.

His fingers gently tapped the jade beads on the wheelchair.

Pei Qingyan said in a calm tone: "I just want to ask you a few more things."

"Where are my mother's bones buried?"

Xie Qingshan: "In Yunchao Mountain, there is a small village where we once lived in seclusion."

"Mingzhu likes that place very much. She once said that when everything settles, we will return to that small village and live a simple and ordinary life."

This answer is similar to what Pei Qingyan thought.

"Is there a passage leading to Mangshan Country in Yunchao Mountain?" he asked.

"You know?" Xie Qingshan was surprised.

"Guess." Pei Qingyan said.

"Why did my mother enter the palace? What was her relationship with the concubine, the imperial concubine at that time? Why did my mother obey the concubine?"

It seems that Pei Qing didn't expect to ask these questions at the banquet.

Xie Qingshan was stunned for a moment.

He sighed: "With your intelligence, you should be able to guess that the true identity of the femme fatale, the imperial concubine, is actually a direct descendant of the royal family of the Mangshan Kingdom. Mingzhu and I are both her ministers."

"To be precise, Mingzhu is her half-sister. The customs of Mangshan Country are different from those of Chiyun Country. In Mangshan Country, the status of superiority and inferiority is very obvious. Women who have been favored by the king are not qualified to raise them even if they give birth to children. of,

Mingzhu's mother was of low status. Mingzhu was taken away after she was born and raised in the main palace as a servant to the princess. She worked as a cow and horse for the princess. At a critical moment, she had to die for the princess. "
