"Master Qi." With a call, a man in a red guard robe appeared in the imperial study at some point.

Qi You was stunned, but quickly put the Yuyan Sword in his sleeve again, turned his head to face the man.

This person is known to Qi You, one of the few personal guards of Emperor Zhengde. This person never competes with others, but it is said among the guards that his kung fu is the best among the personal guards. Perhaps Qi You was still a little confused about this in the past, but today, this person walked into the imperial study room and reached his distance with him, but he failed to discover it in advance. Not only the sound of footsteps, but also the breath, which gave him a new understanding of this person.

"So it's Lord Li." Qi You said politely.

"The emperor summoned Lord Qi." The guard named Li bowed to Qi You, "Please come with me."

When the emperor summoned him, Qi You clenched his fists in his sleeves and let go.

"Well, Lord Li will lead the way." Qi You also bowed.

The guard named Li led Qi You out of the imperial study room and did not stop until in front of the Yugan Hall.

"Please wait here." The guard said to Qi You, and then went in to report first.

But after a while, the guard retreated again and asked Qi You to go in.

In the Yugan Hall, Emperor Zhengde sat behind the imperial desk with a golden sword and wrote something. He was only wearing a regular dress, his hair was simply tied, and he did not wear a crown, making him look at home.

Qi You hurried forward to greet him.

Emperor Zhengde raised his head from the desk, and he had just heard the guard's report. Qi You deliberately sued himself in the imperial study room. However, at this moment, Qi You was not at all unusual. He was decisive, calm, and calm in the face of changes. Qi You did it. Emperor Zhengde nodded secretly.

Emperor Zhengde put down his pen, walked out from behind the desk, and reached out to help Qi You up.

"Emperor..." From him walking into the Yugan Hall, Emperor Zhengde's outfit and behavior all emitted signals of closeness and favor, which made Qi You a little confused.

Emperor Zhengde looked at Qi You carefully. Qi You has been doing well since childhood. Now he has experienced some storms and setbacks and has not been in a depressed state. However, he has restrained his past sharpness and became more calm. As expected, he is a person he values ​​and a good seedling.

"I haven't seen you for a while, and I'm getting better and better. Very good, very good." Emperor Zhengde's tone was completely the kindness and gratitude of an elder in the face of his sons and nephews who had high hopes.

"Come here, sit here." Emperor Zhengde pulled Qi You and walked to the low couch next to him to sit down, "This is the newly sent winter tea, please accompany me to taste it."

Qi You naturally refused and did not dare to sit opposite Emperor Zhengde.

Emperor Zhengde was frightened and Qi You sat down.

The two of them slowly drank tea.

"What have you been busy with recently?" Emperor Zhengde took two sips of tea and asked Qi You again.

Qi You answered truthfully. What could he do when he was free at home? In short, it was just a simple sentence: your wife and children are warm on the bed.

"It's enough to let you be free for so many days." Emperor Zhengde smiled, "You will be back tomorrow. I will be relieved to leave these many things to you."

Qi You hurriedly asked for thanking him.

Emperor Zhengde grabbed Qi You and looked at Qi You with a little wet eyes.

"You are so similar to your father, and you have been by my side, and I haven't recognized you." Emperor Zhengde sighed, "One leaf is obstructed, one leaf is obstructed."

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" Qi You said.

What Emperor Zhengde mentioned was naturally not the second master of the Qi Mansion. As expected, Rong's father was talking about his life experience when he entered the palace that day. If Emperor Zhengde did not mention it, he would naturally just pretend that he would not know it. Emperor Zhengde took the initiative to mention it, so he would have to ask clearly.

"Sit down and talk." Emperor Zhengde pulled Qi You to the low couch next to him.

"You'er, you should call me uncle." Emperor Zhengde's words were astonishing.

"I was born on the same day as your father, and I was born two hours earlier than him... Prince Duanyi and his wife died earlier, so the emperor's grandmother took him in and raised him in the palace. He was ranked seventh in the royal family, and I was about the same age as him, and I started playing since I was a child. He inherited the title of prince and received double salary at a young age, which was more glorious than me, the prince..."

And he looks so handsome. The spring breeze is so proud that the horse's hooves are fast, as if it is written for him. Emperor Zhengde's eyes showed a little nostalgia and melancholy.

"...That year, my seventh brother was ordered to go to Jiangnan to investigate the case, and after he came back, he got an acute illness. The imperial physician was helpless. He was poor at his young age and died before he could get married."

Emperor Zhengde slowly told the past.

"That day, Mrs. Qi reported that my seventh brother had descendants. I didn't believe it, but I was hoping that it was true in my heart. Therefore, I immediately issued an order to suspend the investigation of the Qi Mansion and bring Mrs. Qi into the palace. She told me that the child was you."

Emperor Zhengde said this, stopped and looked at Qi You.

"Does the old lady have evidence?" Qi You asked.

Emperor Zhengde nodded, "I always feel inexplicably intimate and familiar with you by my side over the years. As soon as Mrs. Qi said that you are the son of your seventh brother, I already believed it... But the royal descendants must be solemn."

Emperor Zhengde said, taking out a dragon-patterned jade pendant from his arms.

"This is my Seventh Brother's personal belonging. I never leave him. That time I came back from Jiangnan, but disappeared. I asked, and he smiled but said that I would know soon. At that time, I was also busy with other things, so I put it aside for the time being. He looked very happy at that time..."

"This jade pendant was taken out from the incense burner in front of the Qijia Family Temple according to the instructions of Mrs. Qi." Emperor Zhengde handed the jade pendant to Qi You, "This is what my seventh brother gave to your mother. Your mother later handed the jade pendant to Mrs. Qi together with you... Mrs. Qi lived in Jiangnan when she was young and handed over to your grandmother with her handkerchief in the boudoir..."

"Mrs. Qi said that over the years, the reason why she never revealed your life experience is because she has doubts about your life experience and also follows your mother's wishes. But she realized that the deadline had come and felt that if she didn't say it, no one in the world would know, so she told her your life experience and let me make a decision." Emperor Zhengde recalled the situation when Rong came to the palace and smiled slightly in his heart. Rong said it beautifully, but the time to choose to tell Qi You's life experience explained everything.

Qi You held the jade pendant in his hand, "Last wish?"

"My seventh brother met your mother in Jiangnan and planned to ask for an order to marry your mother after returning to Beijing. Your mother went to Beijing to find her before she could wait for her. At that time, her seventh brother had died of illness. Your mother gave birth to you and asked Mrs. Qi to take care of her, so she... followed your father."

Qi You was speechless for a while. The first time he knew that Aunt Wan was his biological mother. At the same time, what he knew was that Aunt Wan had been killed by Mrs. Qi. Now he knew that his father was Prince Duanyi and his mother was a lady in Jiangnan. At the same time, he also knew that one of these two died of illness and the other died of love.

Emperor Zhengde did not immediately speak out and enlighten him. He had to give Qi You some time to digest such a big thing.

Qi You stroked the jade pendant in his hand. The jade pendant was actually a piece of warm jade, with warm tentacles. He lowered his eyes to hide the turmoil in his heart.

As Prince Duanyi, he had a woman he liked and made the woman have a secret marriage. Even if he was sick, he would not have time to marry her, but it was not difficult to make some arrangements and explanations behind him. However, the news revealed from Emperor Zhengde's words was that no one in the royal family knew that there was this woman.

His mother had found the head of the Dong family in Jiangnan through the land and houses left to him by Rong's family. When the Rong family was working in Jiangnan, they had some contact with the Dong family. Her mother seemed to be the daughter of a Dong family daughter. The royal blood was so precious that even if Prince Duanyi died, she could come to the door with the jade pendant, but she only gave birth to him secretly, leaving instructions to let Rong hide his identity.

According to the historian, Prince Duanyi passed away more than 20 years ago due to an emergency illness. It took only a short day from the onset to the death. But in fact, the cause of Prince Duanyi's death is a huge mystery and there are many different opinions.

Not to mention those rumors, only facts. Prince Duanyi is young and energetic, has a noble status, and is very favored by the empress dowager at that time since childhood. He grew up with the princes, and in the process of these princes fighting for the throne, he could not guarantee that he would not have any bias.

As for the case where Prince Duanyi went to Jiangnan to be responsible for the investigation, it is said that several princes were involved.

In addition, Prince Duanyi was almost eighteen years old when he died, and his marriage had been put on the agenda by the royal family. The late emperor and the queen mother at that time deliberately pointed out that the daughter of the prince's daughter. After Prince Duanyi returned from Jiangnan, this matter was even more exposed. However, Prince Duanyi refused to make accusation, and it is said that the late emperor even turned his face.

The prince was the current Minister of Revenue, the daughter of the Ministry of Revenue, who wanted to marry Prince Duanyi as the concubine. Later, he was accused of marrying and became a concubine of a prince. The prince was Emperor Zhengde in front of him. The concubine of the past has now become one of the four palace masters.

His mother and Rong tried every means to hide his identity, but there was a reason for this.

But Rong finally told the secret.

"I have long regarded you as my nephew over the years. Now, you don't need to have any doubts." Emperor Zhengde said, "There are few people in this world who are more noble than you and closer to me."

Qi You raised his head, Emperor Zhengde's eyes were sincere. He understood that those past truths were not something he could pursue, and what Emperor Zhengde said was the truth.

"I am willing to work hard for Your Majesty, and my heart is trampled on the ground..." Qi You said kneeling.

Emperor Zhengde quickly stood up and helped Qi You up, and said with a smile: "You'er, you are the prince Longsun. In this world, they are the only ones who die for you."

Qi You naturally understood that he confessed his loyalty, and Emperor Zhengde also made a promise.

"emperor,"

"Hey, why haven't you changed your words?"

"Uncle the Emperor."

"Well, that's right. Speaking of which, Mrs. Qi has covered your identity very well..." Emperor Zhengde smiled, "I just made me suspicious, but I couldn't confirm it."
