    ? Chapter 161: Going South

    "I don't know if daddy knows why, since the founding of Xiang Shi, all the descendants of the Ying family have not lived past forty." Ran Qing asked after taking a sip of tea.

    Hearing this, Su Changfeng's expression was terrified.  Having been a close minister of the emperor for many years and holding a complete and detailed information network in his hands, it is not unusual for him to know some royal secrets.  Back then, the Xiang Ying family joined hands to win the world, and finally the powerful Xiang family became the royal family.  The Ying clan, after the patriarch Ying Chu had secret talks with the new emperor Xiang Liying, refused the title of king side by side and gained absolute control of Cangzhou.  Few people know the content of the secret conversation, but Su Changfeng knows that the reason why Xiang Liying agreed to carve out a piece of his own land for others to govern is because Ying Chuji agreed to subdue a "Lianmai"  poison.

    It is said that this poison was obtained by chance by Xiang's ancestors, and it is made of nearly a hundred kinds of poisons.  People suffering from this poison need to take one Jiedu Pill every month, otherwise their whole body will fester and die.  As for the formula of Jiedu Pill, only the Xiang family has it now.  Moreover, the poison will be passed down from generation to generation through the blood. Ying Chuji's consent to take the drug clearly puts the lives of himself and his descendants in the hands of the Xiang family.

    However, he still underestimated Xiang Liying's defensiveness.  The pill he handed over to Ying Chuji to take was not only the poison of "Lianmai", but also mixed with a poison called "Wind Breath".  This poison will not be fatal immediately, but it will continuously erode people's vitality, thus shortening their lifespan.  Same as "Lianmai", "Wind Breath" will also be passed on to future generations along with the bloodline.  This is the reason why none of the Ying family's descendants can live past forty, and therefore, the Ying family who learned the truth hated the Xiang family to the bone.

    "Could it be that the Lianmai has been resolved?" Su Changfeng knew in his heart that if the "Lianmai" hadn't been resolved, no matter how much Ying Shi hated Xiang Shi, he would not put his own life in vain and fight for the antidote pill and rebel.  But he still couldn't believe it, "Lianmai" has been lost so far, even Xiang Shi only has the formula of detoxification pill in his hands, but there is no way to completely remove it.  As far as he knew, the Ying clan had been searching for a detoxification method ever since Ying Chu took the "Lianmai", but they only found an incomplete formula.  Moreover, several kinds of medicinal materials in the formula have long since disappeared, and there is no way to make an antidote.  So, how is this poison solved?

    "Not only the 'Lianmai', but also the 'Wind Breath' has been untied." Ran Qing replied, seeing that the elder brothers didn't quite understand, she briefly explained the secret, and then said, "Since the poison has been unraveled,  It also coincides with the time when Emperor Beng is in turmoil, and the Ying family will definitely not miss this opportunity. So Dad, please inform Uncle Yun as soon as possible."

    "As soon as I received the letter yesterday, I informed the Huiyun Mansion." Although he didn't know the reason for the Ying family's rebellion, Su Changfeng knew that Ranqing was definitely not a person who just talked about it, so he quickly sent a secret letter to him.  And this morning, I got the news that Yun Songcheng's old illness had relapsed and he was taking his family to Dongzhou to recuperate.  Su Changfeng understands that if the Ying family raises troops, Yun Songcheng, who is currently the most powerful general in the imperial court, will have a high chance of taking command.  At that time, the family members will be held as hostages in Beijing.  Yun Songcheng presumably did not want to fight for the imperial court, after all, the Yun family and the Xiang family have a deep relationship.  After a pause, Su Changfeng still expressed his doubts.  "Does Bao'er know how to cure Ying's poison?"

    "'Lianmai' and 'Wind Breath' originally came from Nanman. Nanman intends to join the Ying family, and ordered the family's genius doctor to offer a prescription for understanding the medicine." Ran Qing said the information he had found before.  It was a fluke, the Southern barbarian generation had a genius doctor who had a lot of research on poisons, and only then could he come up with the antidote.

    Su Changfeng already knew a thing or two about the remnants that Ying had obtained before, so he raised his doubts again.  "As far as I know, several herbs in the antidote have long been extinct, how can they be worthy?"

    "My daughter went out of Beijing to find medicine and the Ying family." Ranqing did not hide this, "When my daughter went to Anle County, she accidentally found a secret place in which there were many kinds of old things.  Extinct medicinal materials. So after learning about the Ying family, I went to get the medicine, and secretly sent it to Ying's mansion."

    Although Su Changfeng guessed that what he did when he left Beijing before Ranqing was related to the Ying family, he didn't expect that it was actually delivering medicine.  Recalling the contact between her own daughter and the Ying family, it seems that there is not much relationship, so why take such a big risk to send such precious medicinal materials to the Ying family?  Moreover, how did she know what kind of ingredients the antidote lacked?  It seems that his treasure has a lot of secrets.  But he didn't continue to ask, he believed that Ranqing would tell him when he should know.

    And the brothers of the Su family, who were listening to the question and answer of the father and daughter, were all shocked. They had never even heard of the "connecting pulse" or "wind breath", but the younger sister knew about it.  So clear, why?  And they were equally puzzled, why did my sister help the Ying family?  Su Bingwen even thought of Ying Jie'an who he met on the way back to Beijing. Could it be because of that kid?  But soon he denied this guess, how could Ran Qing like that kid from the Ying family!

    "Daddy, brothers," Ran Qing understood their doubts and said.  "dye??Once owed the Ying family a huge favor, this action is just to repay the favor.  Therefore, regarding the Ying family's rebellion, father and brothers please act freely and don't worry about me.  "

    Hearing what Ranqing said, Su Changfeng and his sons stopped asking questions about human relationships, and instead discussed how to deal with them.  After pondering for a moment, Su Changfeng sighed and said.  "Since my father has resigned from his official position, I really shouldn't ask about the court. After the late emperor is buried, I can take my wife and go south. You can also go to Jiangnan County to visit your father-in-law and mother-in-law."

    It was originally Su Changfeng's plan to resign from office and go back to seclusion and travel with his family.  He is not a person who is greedy for power.  These years of painstaking efforts were nothing more than planning for a close friend, but in the end, the monarch and his ministers trusted him, and the friendship ceased.  Since my heart is chilled, it is better to leave the capital as soon as possible.  For the sake of his past achievements, the emperor would not treat his children lightly.  It's just that now that the emperor has passed away suddenly, the new emperor has not been revealed, and the war is about to start again, he is a little embarrassed about the arrangements for his children.  His eyes swept over the children in front of him one by one. The precious daughter and the eldest son have always been steady and determined, so he doesn't need to worry about it.  Although the third son is usually obsessed with romance and looks unreliable, but he is also clear inside, and there will be no major mistakes.  The fifth son is pure and kind by nature, he keeps his duty and does not compete with the world, which has always made him feel at ease.  There is only the sixth son, who is clever and quick-witted, if you don't watch him, you may cause trouble.  Su Changfeng said.  "At that time, Hui'er and Weifu will go south together. The rest of them will think about it when they go back, and they will reply tomorrow that it is the father."

    "Daddy, my daughter will be with her parents." Ran Qing said immediately.  Although she was part of the Ying family in her previous life, she has also received a lot of care from the Xiang family in this life.  As I said before, detoxifying the Ying family was a breakup between her and the Ying family.  She won't get involved in the Ying family's rebellion, and of course, she won't help the Xiang family crusade against the Ying family either.  It was her decision not to help each other and go south with her parents.

    Su Changfeng rubbed the top of dyed blue soft hair, "Okay."

    Su Binghui was still a little dissatisfied at first, his brothers and sisters chose to stay or stay on their own, but he had to go.  But at this moment, when he heard that his sister was also going together, he was no longer dissatisfied.  Besides, Dongzhou is the only way to go south

    "Father, I choose to stay in the capital." After thinking for a while, Su Bingwen said.

    "I'll stay too." Su Bingzheng then said.

    And Su Bingren saw that his brothers had expressed their views, so he also spoke.  "Father, the Dongzhou flood has damaged many dams. The Ministry of Industry intends to send someone to guide the repairs, and I would like to invite them."

    "It's just what you want." When the children grow up, they should have their own ideas.  Su Changfeng turned his gaze to Su Binghui and Ran Qing, "You have carefully packed your bags these few days, especially Ren'er, you have accounted for your good life that you should account for in your business. This trip is at least a year or at least several years, it is contemptuous  No."

    "Yes, Daddy." The two agreed in unison.

    Everything that should be discussed has been discussed, Su Changfeng was about to leave, but he heard Ranqing ask.  "Daddy, there is still one thing my daughter doesn't know."

    "What's the matter?" Su Changfeng asked.

    "What happened to the death of the first emperor?" Ran Qing asked bluntly, she believed that her father must know the truth with his ability.

    "It was the empress who poisoned me." Su Changfeng sighed, "Whether the eldest prince participated is still unknown, but it is undoubtedly the empress who did it."

    As soon as these words came out, the whole room was shocked.  What a queen!  But "Why did the empress murder the first emperor?"

    Su Changfeng shook his head and sighed.  "I don't even know if I'm a father."

    "The battle for the throne, who does father think has a better chance of winning?" It was Su Bingwen who asked this question.

    Hearing this, Su Changfeng's eyes turned sharp.  "No matter who proclaims the emperor, just do your duty as a courtier."

    "Yes, father." Su Bingwen bowed his head to be taught, this time he was indeed impatient.

    After Su Changfeng gave a few more instructions to Su Bingwen and Su Bingzheng who chose to stay in Beijing, he let them go on their own.  After the children left, he stood alone in front of the case, frowning and thinking about something.

    A country cannot be without a king for a day, the three princes fought fiercely, and finally the eldest prince Xiang Hui, who was in charge of the imperial army, won the throne by thunderous means.  As for the empress murdering the first emperor, it is nonsense. The "truth" is that An Guifei murdered the first emperor and framed the empress in order to allow her son to ascend to the throne.

    After the first emperor was buried, the new emperor came to the throne. Xiang Huiyu was not a kind person. As soon as he ascended the throne, he gave An Taigui a three-foot white silk to kill himself, and issued an imperial decree to put his two younger brothers under house arrest.  But how could the second and third princes sit still and wait for death?  I don't know what method he used to get out of the capital amidst the heavy blockade, and went to join the mother clan guarding the frontier.

    The situation in the capital is changing, but it has nothing to do with Su Changfeng.  After chartering a comfortable passenger boat, he took his wife and children down the river and went south.  Wait, it seems that there is one more outsider (remember this website URL: www.hlnovel.com)?.  Wait, it seems that there is one more outsider (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
