114 [Who am I]

My life experience?

A look of confusion appeared on Pei Yue's face.

The concubine of Dingguo, the third young master of the Pei family who does not live up to his name.

This is Pei Yue's identity in his understanding, and he has never doubted it. Even though Pei Rong and Li's attitude towards him made him a little confused, he never thought about it deeply. Because in his understanding, the ancient family was

It is an extremely contradictory existence. On the one hand, it pays attention to loyalty, filial piety, etiquette, and justice, but on the other hand, there are many incomprehensible scandals.

Such things as pampering concubines and destroying wives, mistresses being mean, intrigues, and even life-and-death fights for a share of the family property are not uncommon.

Therefore, Pei Rong often scolded him and Li abused him in every possible way, but he did not get entangled.

It's nothing more than looking for an opportunity to take revenge in the future.

Gu Liang said straight to the point: "You are not Pei Rong's son."

This sentence gave Pei Yue an enlightenment, and he instantly figured out many unreasonable things. He was silent and looked solemn, but there was not much sadness and panic. It seemed that this incident was not enough to shock him.

If it were the previous original owner, he would definitely be in panic, because without the shelter of Dingguo Mansion, a half-grown man with no relatives would definitely be unable to move forward in today's world, and might even be in danger of his life. However, Pei Yue just frowned for a moment.

, the brows opened, and he did not fall into useless self-pity.

Gu Liang looked at his calm expression with relief and said: "I originally planned to tell you these words after you are twenty years old, but from the looks of these days, you are not the kind of child who can't withstand the storm. You are very smart and know

What I want, I know better how to do it, so I can't hide it from you anymore. Because when you make some decisions in the future, if you don't know your true life experience, you are likely to make wrong judgments."

After a brief silence, Pei Yue seemed to be mentally prepared and said seriously: "Uncle, please speak."

Gu Liang held the wine glass and said: "Fourteen years ago, on the eve of Emperor Zhongzong's death, Duke Ding came to me and asked me to protect someone after his death. That person was a scholar in Kyoto, and he had a gentle temper.

, had nothing to do with the world, and had only one pregnant wife at home. The Duke of Guo did not tell me the identity of this person, so for a long time, I thought he was the illegitimate son of the Duke of Guo."

Pei Yue scratched his head and asked: "Uncle, is the Duke you are talking about Pei Yuan, the ancestor of the Pei family?"

Gu Liang nodded and said, "It's him. Thirty-three years ago, there was a rebellion against the Xian family of the Duke of Chu. Xian Chunqiu defected to the Southern Zhou Dynasty with nine hundred of his children. My father was implicated in it. If the Duke of Chu hadn't personally come to the palace to dissuade him, Zhongzong would have died.

I will definitely issue an order to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan. Although the Gu family was saved, my father was still executed by Zhongzong. To tell you the truth, I have wanted to rebel more than once in these years, but the Duke of the country gave up my idea. Since he put that scholar

If you entrust him to me, I cannot betray his trust."

"Is the scholar a descendant of the Xian family?"

"Probably not. His name is Ling Ping, and he doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Xian family. I checked and found out that this person's family background is very clear. He is indeed a descendant of the Ling family."

"So my original surname is Ling?"

"That's right."

The name Ling Yue sounds pretty good, but what Pei Yue doesn't understand now is why people like Pei Yuana would pay special attention to an inconspicuous scholar?

As if seeing his doubts, Gu Liang scratched his head and said: "The Duke of Guo passed away not long ago, so I couldn't ask him what happened. Then Zhongzong also died, and the new emperor succeeded to the throne and changed his name to Yongning. In the autumn

There was a big turmoil in Kyoto, and I was in the southern border at the time, and when I learned the news, it was already too late when I came back."

"Were they killed?"

"yes."

"Who did it?"

"Wang Pingzhang."

"Why is this happening?"

"It's a little unbelievable to say that the turmoil targeted a wealthy family in Duzhong. Wang Pingzhang arranged for a night attack. Many innocent people were injured in the chaos. Your parents live on that street."

Pei Yue remained silent.

He never thought it would be a story like this.

As a very mature soul, even if the couple is still alive, it will take him a certain amount of time to accept the fact that the other party is his biological parents, let alone this unprecedented situation?

However, the world is full of black humor.

His biological parents only suffered a disaster and are not the protagonist of the story.

Gu Liang continued: "When I learned the news and rushed back to Kyoto, and after making inquiries, I found out that you had been rescued by Pei Zhen. I went to find him, and he said that the Duke of Guo had also told him to take good care of the scholar's family.

, I just didn’t expect Wang Pingzhang to be so bold and dare to commit murder in Kyoto. He told me that he would raise you in Pei Rong’s name and would never let you be wronged.”

He sighed softly and said: "After all, he is the direct grandson of the Duke of Guo, and he inherited the title of Dingguo, so I could only believe him at that time. If I had known that you would be treated like that by Pei Rong, I would not have done it even if I broke up with him.

I will take you back to my home."

Pei Yue shook his head and said: "Uncle, this is not important. I will personally repay the evil Pei Rong did to me, sooner or later. But I have many questions that I can't figure out now, so I would like to ask my uncle to help me clear up my doubts."

"you say."

"I am the son of that scholar. Why does Pei Yuan, Duke of Dingguo, value a scholar so highly?"

"I checked Ling Ping's details and didn't find anything unusual. He is not a noble, and he has never met a wealthy family. He has been fond of reading since he was a child. When he grew up, he married a wife and had children. Everything was normal. His wife

, that is, your mother, came from an ordinary merchant family in Kyoto."

"Who was Wang Pingzhang trying to kill at that time?"

"That family is very special. The head of the family is a woman. She is very good at business. She controls the trade routes between Daliang and Western Wu and Southern Zhou Dynasties. She is called the richest man in the world. More importantly, she has countless capable people under her command, and she also supports the number of people.

Many martial arts masters."

Pei Yue suddenly thought of the woman in the mountains, and his eyes gradually became serious.

"Is Wang Pingzhang doing it for that woman's wealth?"

Gu Liang shook his head and said coldly: "That woman has another level of identity. She is the woman that Emperor Yongning likes."

Pei Yue stood up suddenly and looked at Gu Liang in disbelief.

Even though Wang Pingzhang was a big shot in the army, where did he have the courage to touch the woman the emperor liked?

We must know that even Pei Yuan would not offend the authority of the Tian family easily for a hundred years after the founding of Daliang. Countless bloody facts told the important officials in the court what the outcome would be for the Tian family to hold grudges.

Gu Liang drank the wine in one gulp and said in a very complicated tone: "Before Zhongzong passed away, he made Liu Xuan, the second son of the emperor, the crown prince. Then Liu Xuan ascended the throne and changed his title to Yongning. But no one expected that he was in good health.

Only half a year after Liu Xuan succeeded to the throne, he fell seriously ill and became bedridden before he even had time to bring the woman into the palace."

"In the autumn of the first year of Yongning, Kyoto was in turmoil. Not long after, Liu Xuan passed away suddenly. With the support of the two governments, Liu Zheng, the fourth son of Zhongzong, succeeded to the throne, and he was changed to Yuan Renxuan the following year."

Liu Zheng?!
