"I accidentally saw some records about the Ji Family."
In Chen Yu's hand was a book about the records of one of the Great Huan Dynasty's emperors. When he first entered the palace, Chen Yu often read such books as storybooks. The book in his hand was placed in a more remote location, so it wasn't found at that time.
This time, it was found by Shen Yu.
Shen Yu carried the book and walked to Shang Junlin's side and put the book on the imperial desk.
Shen Yu put a bookmark in the place where the records of the Ji Family were recorded. The bookmark was made by Shen Yu when he was idle, and it had a faint fragrance.
The bookmark was taken away, and Shen Yu pointed to a place: "Your Majesty, look."
The book recorded the life of an emperor of the Great Huan Dynasty. This emperor was different from the other emperors of the Great Huan Dynasty. Every year after he was registered, he would spend a lot of time wandering outside the palace. It could be said that he had traveled all over the Great Huan Dynasty. Other than the Great Huan Dynasty, he had also visited many remote places.
One of them was located deep in the mountains, where there were few people. This emperor fell into the mountains while chasing prey and found that there was a small country isolated from the rest of the world.
The population of this country was not large, and it had a very strange custom. The ruler was the Ji Family. This emperor only lived there for three days before he was sent out. When he left, he left behind the things he had on him and told the people who saved him that if they were interested, they could come to Da Huan as a guest.
After the emperor left, he would think of this place from time to time. Later, he brought people to the deep mountains and wanted to enter again, but he did not succeed.
Of course, in his whole life, he did not wait for the people with the token to come to Da Huan to find him.
The book only recorded half a page of this matter, so Shang Junlin finished reading it quickly.
"If the small country mentioned in the book is the Ji Family, then your mother leaving the Ji Family and coming to Da Huan, could it be related to this matter?" Shang Junlin lowered his head and thought.
"It's better to ask Ji Wuwang directly." Shen Yu had been wondering before. If his mother was from the Ji Family, why did she have to come to Da Huan? As a hereditary marquis, why did Zhen Bei Hou marry a woman of unknown origin as his legal wife?
What if there was someone from the royal family behind this woman?
Then, no matter what her real background was, it was not strange that Duke Zhenbei would take her as his wife.
Shang Junlin still had official business to attend to, so Shen Yu accompanied him for a while in the Imperial Study. After they were done, the two of them returned to Yuzhang Palace. The palace servant received the order to invite Ji Wuwang. When Shen Yu and Shang Junlin arrived at Yuzhang Palace, Ji Wuwang was already there.
During this period of time, both sides had tried many times. Shen Yu could feel that Ji Wuwang was holding back. Whenever he talked about the key points, he would stop at a certain point and never delve too deeply.
"Little Yu, why did you call big brother here?" Ji Wuwang asked when he saw the two of them.
Other things aside, Ji Wuwang was very proactive when it came to recognizing his relatives. In just a few days, everyone in the palace knew that this handsome young master with a disease in his eyes was the Emperor's elder brother.
Because the two of them looked so similar, almost no one doubted the authenticity of his words.
"We found that an emperor of the Great Huan Dynasty had once visited your clan's land. He also drew a map. My mother leaving the clan's land to come to the Great Huan Dynasty, is it related to this matter?" Shen Yu said while observing Ji Wuwang's expression, not missing a moment of change.
"How should I say this matter, it can be said that it is related. After the Ji family went into seclusion, they almost cut off all contact with the outside world until a man who claimed to be the Great Huan Dynasty's emperor accidentally broke in. He told the Ji family about the outside world and left some personal belongings in the clan. He said that if they encountered any difficulties, they could go to the Great Huan Dynasty to find him."
Ji Wuwang's words matched what was recorded in the book. This proved that the Ji family Ji Wuwang was from was the same family that the Great Huan Dynasty's emperor met.
"You directly admitted it. Aren't you afraid that we will bring people directly to the Ji family's land?" Shen Yu raised an eyebrow.
"You won't be able to enter." Ji Wuwang's lips curved into a perfect arc. "That ancestor of the Great Huan Dynasty also brought people to search, right? He didn't find anything, right? Without someone to lead the way, it's impossible for outsiders to enter the clan's land. "
"You're making me more curious. What kind of existence is the Ji family?"
"Little Yu, if you're interested, follow me back and you'll know."
"Since the Shang family's ancestor can enter, others should be able to as well, right?" Shen Yu stroked his chin and asked.
"Who do you want to bring? You don't have to bring people to serve you. The clan will arrange it. You are my younger brother. When you reach the clan's land, you will be treated as you should. "
"Who said I want to bring people to serve me? What I want to ask is, can I bring His Majesty along?"
When Shen Yu's voice fell, not only Ji Wuwang, but even Shang Junlin was stunned.
During this period of time, they had deliberately avoided this topic because they knew that this was a problem that could not be solved for the time being.
The problem with Shen Yu's body could not be ignored. Regardless of whether Ji Wuwang's words were true or false, Shang Junlin would not use Shen Yu as a stake. The only way was to take the initiative and firmly control the situation in his own hands.
The most appropriate way Shang Junlin could think of was to control the Ji family so that they would not dare to do anything unnecessary.
"No, you can't bring him." Ji Wuwang's first reaction was to refuse.
"Why not? Actually, you should be able to feel that the trust between us is very low. Since young, I have always thought that I did not have a maternal family. But now, someone suddenly appeared and told me that he is an elder brother from my maternal family. If it were you, how much would you believe? "Shen Yu brought up this matter for the first time.
"I know you don't believe me. When you return to the family with me, you will naturally understand everything."
"You see, this is a problem that cannot be solved. Because I don't believe you, I will not easily return to the family with you. If I don't return to the family, I will not believe you. After going around in a circle, we are back to square one. Why don't you think of a way to gain my trust first? Won't this problem be easily solved?" Shen Yu threw all the problems to Ji Wuwang to solve.
He and Shang Junlin had too few clues in their hands. It was undoubtedly very difficult to verify this matter. Ji Wuwang was different. If he could find him, he must have something to prove his words.
"You can think clearly before coming to find me."
Ji Wuwang left with a look of deep thought.
"I don't want a complicated background at all." Shen Yu fell on Shang Junlin's body and sighed.
A complicated background meant endless trouble. Just by looking at it from a corner, Shen Yu could feel that the Ji family's waters were very deep. He did not want to get involved in this muddy water at all.
"A Yu, why did you say that you want me to accompany you?" Shang Junlin adjusted Shen Yu's position so that he could lie down more comfortably.
"Your Majesty does not want to accompany me?" Shen Yu turned over so that he was face to face with Shang Junlin. He supported himself on the man's chest and looked into his dark eyes.
"Wherever A Yu goes, I am willing to accompany you."
"The reason is very simple. It is because I do not want to be separated from Your Majesty." Shen Yu lowered his head and leaned close to the man's chest. He listened to the man's steady heartbeat and the messy thoughts in his mind gradually calmed down.
He thought that he had changed a lot in this life compared to his previous life. All of this was brought to him by Shang Junlin. He no longer had to face everything alone. No matter what happened, he could always see the man standing behind him silently when he looked back. As long as he nodded, the man would be able to shelter him from the storm.
"I will not let anyone take A Yu away from me." It was a vow and also a promise.
Shen Yu raised his head and moved forward. He kissed Shang Junlin's lips: "Your Majesty is so good."
Shang Junlin pressed the back of Shen Yu's head and deepened the kiss.
Shen Yu was kissed until he was in a daze. He did not even know when he had switched positions with Shang Junlin. The man supported him with one hand and used the other to brush away the scattered black hair on his neck.
"A Yu …"
There seemed to be a cluster of flames jumping in his dark eyes. Shen Yu raised his head and looked slightly confused.
"Don't leave me."
His waist was tightly restrained. The kisses fell like a storm. Red plum blossoms were printed on his snow-white skin. Every kiss seemed to want to rub him into his bones.
Shang Junlin sent people to find the map left behind in the palace and ordered the Hidden Dragon Guards to follow the traces to find the hiding place of the Ji family. Shen Yu also ordered his people to find the things left behind by his mother in the Count of Zhenbei's residence.
In the next few days, Ji Wuwang did not appear in front of Shen Yu.
Mu Xi sent the things found in the Count of Zhenbei's residence to Shen Yu. Count of Zhenbei did not dare to stop their actions.
After Shen Qingran was taken away, there was no news. He did not know how the Emperor would deal with Shen Qingran and the Count of Zhenbei's residence. He thought that he could use this visit to make a beautiful comeback and return with a high profile. Who would have thought that because of Shen Qingran's action, it would become the death of the Count of Zhenbei's residence?
At this moment, Count of Zhenbei really resented Shen Qingran. He knew that Shen Qingran and Shen Yu did not get along, but he did not expect that Shen Qingran would do something to Shen Yu regardless of the consequences.
Shen Qingran was a noble conferred by the Emperor himself. Did he really want to drag the Count of Zhenbei's residence down with him?! If he had known this earlier, he would have killed this unfilial son to end all troubles!
"Young Master, Count of Zhenbei has executed Concubine Ru," Mu Xi said while packing up the things that belonged to Shen Yu's mother found in the Count of Zhenbei's residence.
Shen Yu was not surprised by this result at all. Not to mention Concubine Ru, if Shen Qingran was still in the residence at this time, he would most likely be executed together with Concubine Ru.
Shen Yu had been paying attention to the Ji family's affairs these days and forgot about Shen Qingran, the culprit that caused him to fall into a coma.
Shen Yu did not need to tidy up the things himself. Mu Xi and the palace servants would sort them out. Shen Yu looked for a while and went to find Shang Junlin.
"A Yu came at the right time. They asked Shen Qingran about the characteristics of the person who gave him the medicine. I have already ordered a hunt."
"That person should also be a member of the Ji family, right?" Shen Yu asked.
Other than the person who was also from the Ji family, who else would have the medicine from the Ji family to specifically target him?
"Yes."
Shen Yu then realized that Ji Wuwang was also there. He turned to look at him, "Does this count as the trouble you brought me?"
"I will deal with this person." Ji Wuwang's voice was colder than usual.
"Your Majesty, why is he here?" Shen Yu walked towards Shang Junlin.
"He came to tell me about the person who wanted to harm you."
Only in the face of the person who wanted to harm Shen Yu, Shang Junlin and Ji Wuwang's attitude reached a high level of unity.
"There is one more thing. Little Yu, didn't you ask Brother to find a way to prove his method? I thought of it. "
