Chapter 150 What's wrong with crawling through a dog hole?
"Are you from the palace?"
Qi Shuo looked at the man in front of him and didn’t understand why the people in the palace had found him. Did the emperor have any instructions?
No, he is not the emperor's man. He just called himself cousin.
The man shook his head and introduced himself, "My cousin, I am not from the palace, but I used to be from the palace."
Qi Shuo frowned and said, "Don't play dumb!"
"Yes, my name is Tian Yu, and I am from the Prince of Anqing's Mansion."
"Prince of Anqing?"
When Qi Shuo heard this name, his brows frowned even more tightly.
In this world, if anyone heard this name, they might not know which royal relative this was, but Qi Shuo knew.
The Prince of Anqing is the son of Crown Prince Mingzhao. Crown Prince Mingzhao is the elder brother of the current emperor. He was convicted of treason by the previous emperor. The Prince of Anqing is the posthumous son of Crown Prince Mingzhao.
Originally, all the descendants of Prince Mingzhao should have been executed, but this posthumous child luckily survived, but was later found by someone.
At that time, several years had passed since Prince Mingzhao was executed, and the late emperor's anger towards Prince Mingzhao had gradually faded. When he suddenly learned about this grandson, he couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic, so he forgave him and placed him in Prince Mingzhao's former residence.
Later, when the emperor ascended the throne, in order to demonstrate his benevolence, he appointed the son of the former crown prince as Prince of Anqing. When people all over the world learned about it, they all praised the emperor's move.
When Qi Shuo thought of the current emperor, his eyes sparked with fire. He looked at Tian Yu and asked, "Did the Prince of Anqing send you to find me?"
"Yes! His Highness said that he wants to meet your cousin!"
"Cousin..." Qi Shuo smiled faintly, "You found out so quickly?"
Tian Yu immediately replied, "Yes! His Highness was so happy to learn that he had a cousin like you!"
"Where is your Highness?"
Tian Yu said sadly, "Your Highness has been imprisoned in the palace since he was a child and has never left the palace. Since he came of age, the guards have become even stricter."
"In that case, how can I meet him?" Qi Shuo frowned.
"There is a way, there is a way, cousin, just follow me."
No matter how strict the guards were, they were only watching over Prince Anqing. In such a neglected place, the others were more or less negligent in their duties.
Qi Shuo was skeptical about this palace maid, but he followed her anyway, for no other reason than that he did have a new relative.
His real identity was Xiao, a member of the wife's family of Prince Mingzhao. Due to the failure of Prince Mingzhao, the Xiao family was also wiped out.
That year, he was only two years old and was still an ignorant baby. Fortunately, with the help of his mother's best friend, he was able to escape from the capital. However, they encountered a landslide on the way, and his mother and her best friend were buried underground. Only he survived under the protection of his mother. Under the heavy rain, he was rescued by villagers passing by. Since then, he has been wandering outside for more than 20 years.
He thought that he would be helpless and alone all his life, but he never expected that he still had relatives in the world.
The Xie family is one, and the Prince of Anqing is also one. He has so many relatives! But now these relatives are being persecuted. If he wants to protect them, he must do something.
Qi Shuo followed Tian Yu to a corner of the wall. There were a lot of weeds growing beside the wall, which showed how dilapidated the house was.
Tian Yu pushed aside some of the weeds, revealing a small hole in the wall.
"My dear cousin, I'm sorry for wronging you."
Qi Shuo nodded lightly, without feeling any grievance in his heart. After all, he had been in the market since he was a child and had done all kinds of humble things. It was just a dog hole, so what was there to feel wronged about?
