Chapter 637: Two unexpected letters
He actually sent the message out.
Although he had never left Daliushu Village and pretended to be the same as before, he still created various opportunities to send messages to the outside world.
But he didn't know that everything about him was under Shen Yuan's surveillance.
"No, since he was able to pretend to be a fool for so many years, it shows that he has a strong character and is naturally very smart. How could he not see that someone was watching him? When he was kept in Daliushu Village, he should have noticed it."
But Su Wanwan felt something was wrong.
If he was really pretending to be stupid, she didn't believe that Yun Xian would be so stupid.
They deliberately left him behind during this group trip, just waiting for him to show his true colors. Couldn't he guess it?
Since you have guessed it, why would you send the message outside and expose yourself?
"There are only two reasons. One is that he felt that he had done it perfectly. After all, through Zhao Yuanyuan and the caravan, it would have been difficult to detect if someone hadn't been watching. The other reason is that he deliberately exposed himself."
Shen Yuan also took out another piece of paper, on which was the letter that Yun Xian wrote to the caravan.
It's just a copy.
Before leaving, he had instructed the secret guard to make a copy of the letter and put the real letter back to avoid alerting the enemy.
"Is this a letter?"
Su Wanwan read the letter and immediately leaned over to take a look.
There is no opening salutation, just the content directly, but that’s not surprising at all.
After all, secret letters like these will definitely not allow people to see the relationship between the people communicating.
But the content surprised them.
"He is actually trying to persuade the other party to stop?"
Su Wanwan said in disbelief.
The words in the letter talked about His Majesty's current political achievements, and also talked about how good His Majesty and the princess were to him, and even how good Prince Cheng was to him, and how good Yun Yi was to him.
When the world is at peace, persuade the other side not to cause loss of life, put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha right away.
He even said that he didn't care about that high position, and if he refused to change his mind, don't blame him for turning against him.
In the middle, he also listed a large number of benevolent policies implemented by the current emperor in an attempt to convince the other party.
The words are sincere and touching.
"It's surprising that Yun Xian, who has never learned to read, can write such an article."
Shen Yuan read the letter again and again, not knowing what he was thinking.
"This is written to Marquis Wu'an."
After a long while, he finally uttered a few words.
If it was sent to Pingnan County, it must have been given to Marquis Wu'an.
Marquis Wu'an is the king of Pingnan County.
There is no doubt about this. Su Wanwan read both letters.
"Liu Qian also ordered a halt to the operation and stopped purchasing grain."
Su Wanwan couldn't understand why Shen Yuan and His Majesty had been acting for such a long time and were so high-profile that they obviously believed that there was no one behind the scenes and were very complacent.
Logically speaking, the other party should have relaxed their vigilance, and Liu Qian should have been asked to purchase the grain quickly at this time.
Why do we have to stop?
Then wouldn’t the whole play have been performed in vain?
"Did he really wake up, or did he do it on purpose?"
Su Wanwan said suspiciously.
Looking at the words in this letter, between the lines, it seems as if the person has really come to his senses in time and is filled with regret.
Of course, it is also possible that he had already seen through their acting and did it on purpose.
Uncle Yunxian, even if he was pretending to be stupid, he was so alert and smart?
"It's hard to say. If they really stop, it will be difficult to deal with. As the saying goes, catch the thief and take the stolen goods. If they don't take action, it will be difficult for us to catch them."
Shen Yuan felt that the situation was getting a bit tricky, and continued:
"Now it depends on whether Marquis Wu'an will listen to my advice."
If Marquis Wu'an had listened to the advice and really stopped, or even voluntarily handed over his military power and resigned, the matter would have been left unresolved.
These two letters were written in a very tactful way, both praising the current emperor and persuading the other party not to be stubborn, and they cannot be used as evidence at all.
“Marquis Wu’an may not listen to advice. Sun Xiaolian’s death made him extremely hate the royal family, otherwise he would not have had such a change of heart. What puzzles me is, if he hates the royal family, why would he support Prince Xian? Isn’t Prince Xian also a member of the royal family?
Moreover, judging from the tone of his voice, the relationship between the two is unusual. Prince Xian is definitely not a member of the Yun family, otherwise Marquis Wu'an would never support him. "
Su Wanwan came to this conclusion.
Having read so many brainless novels, she knows very well how terrible love-brain is.
This Marquis Wu'an was definitely a love-brained man. Because of the death of his lover, he wished to drag the whole world to be buried with him, and did things that would most likely make him infamous for eternity.
If Prince Xian was a member of the Yun family, he would never have supported him so much.
If King Xian was just a puppet of his, it would be impossible for him to communicate with him in such a tone.
Xin's words were sincere, but in the end they seemed a little strong, as if if he didn't listen, the two of them would break up, and he would not allow him to continue to be stubborn.
Puppets don't do these things.
All we can say is that the two had a close relationship, and King Xian obviously knew that Marquis Wu'an could not break with him.
But it was obvious that King Xian could not control Marquis Wu'an.
What kind of relationship is this?
Yun Xian is not a member of the royal family, nor is he Huo Xiangxi’s son, so whose son could he be?
The son that Huo Xiangxi mentioned is neither King Xian nor Pang Qingping, so who is it?
Things seemed to be getting more and more chaotic, and Shen Yuan was in deep thought for a long time.
"Is it possible that..."
Suddenly, they both spoke in unison and looked at each other at the same time.
Shen Yuan chuckled: "My wife will speak first."
Su Wanwan was not polite and said directly:
"Could Yun Xian be the son of Marquis Wu'an?"
This was the only possibility she could think of.
According to news from the capital, Yun Xian's mother was a peasant girl, and this peasant girl was friends with Sun Xiaolian.
Is it possible that Yun Xian is actually Sun Xiaolian’s son, but was just raised by the peasant girl?
This kind of thing is not uncommon in the palace, and there are even cases of people swapping a prince for a princess.
Shen Yuan chuckled and put his arm around his wife's waist:
"My wife and I have the same idea. This is the only possibility that can make Marquis Wu'an bow his head. We have done so many appraisals, maybe we have been going in the wrong direction all along."
Shen Yuan seemed to have confirmed it.
When Marquis Wu'an returned to Beijing, Sun Xiaolian was still a palace maid. Seeing his former lover in such a situation, Marquis Wu'an must have tried every means to rescue his lover from the palace.
Unexpectedly, the lover was slept with by the old emperor. How painful was the hatred?
The two must have had private contact. At that time, Marquis Wu'an was serving as the commander of the Beijing Guard Camp, and he had plenty of opportunities to enter the palace.
He even suspected that the killing among the late emperor's descendants might have been instigated by Marquis Wu'an.
Not long after Sun Xiaolian's death, Wu'an Hou was sent to Pingnan County to resist the Japanese pirates. He made repeated contributions and finally became a general. What a coincidence.
Su Wanwan didn’t think too much about it. All she could guess were just random guesses.
"Is the specimen of Marquis Wu'an easy to get?"
There is no need to guess, the simplest way is still paternity testing.
