"It can't be, even more ridiculous than the previous one?" Dong Fang Ziqing shouted in her heart.

If that was really the case, and the Empress Dowager's surname was Yuwen as well, and she was a member of the Yuwen Clan, then wouldn't the Son of Heaven, Xuanyuan Chenmo, want to call her his aunt? Aunt married her nephew? Dongfang Ziqing was unable to accept this.

Although she was not the real Yuwen Yanran, she was still unable to accept the restriction of her thoughts.

"Yes, that's right. This one is your uncle's sister, your aunt." The empress dowager didn't give up without giving anyone a fright. She continued to speak.

Dongfang Ziqing was completely frightened. She sat down on the bed and muttered to herself in shock: "How can this be? Aunt? I've also become the emperor's aunt. "

When the empress dowager saw this, she couldn't help but smile and say, "Yanran, child, don't worry. You aren't related by blood to Mo'er."

"Huh?" Dong Fang Ziqing jumped up and asked, pretending to be excited: "Really?"

"Right." Your uncle, he is my younger brother. Although he is not my blood brother, our friendship surpasses his blood brother's, so you and Mo'er are not related by blood, you need not worry about him. "" Mo'er, Mo'er … "" Mo'er … "" Mo'er … "

"So that's how it is. That's good, that's good." Dongfang Ziqing said to herself.

"Back then …" The empress dowager tilted her head up slightly, deep in thought. Decades ago, a secret that no one knew existed had been thrown into the water.

Dozens of years ago, General Yuwen's father happened to discover the abandoned empress dowager when he was traveling. At that time, the empress dowager was only a few months old, and General Yuwen's father was a pitiful empress dowager who was so young that she was abandoned.

Soon after, his wife, also known as General Yuwen's mother, gave birth to the two brothers, General Yuwen.

The family of five enjoyed themselves to the fullest.

Although the empress dowager was adopted back home, her father didn't treat her unfairly. Instead, he doted on the empress dowager the most.

The empress dowager was already very sensible at such a young age. She was also very beautiful, making people fall for her.

General Yuwen's name was Yuwen Lingtian, and he had a very good relationship with his adopted sister. Although they weren't siblings, their friendship was several times better than that of siblings.

The empress dowager Yuwen Lingyue, due to her natural beauty that could topple nations, was selected as a beautiful woman and sent to the imperial palace. She was later appointed as the imperial concubine by the previous emperor, and later gave birth to a dragon son, who was also known as the previous emperor.

As for Yuwen Lingtian, he was also a young man with great attainments in martial arts. He had a bold eye, was familiar with military strategies, and was well-versed in the ways of leading soldiers.

Afterwards, he was used by the previous emperor to enter the palace and serve the emperor.

Not long after, their father had died suddenly from an illness, and when Yuwen Lingyue and Yuwen Lingyue heard the news and rushed home, they did not see him again for the last time.

His mother cried and told him about his father's dying wish.

So it turned out that Yuwen Clan was the founding clan of Xuanyuan Kingdom, and their ancestors were Xuanyuan Kingdom's founding fathers.

His father also carried out the last wishes left behind by his ancestors, and hoped that his own descendants would be able to help the Xuanyuan Imperial Family stabilize their position. He hoped that his descendants would be able to take the initiative to battle on the battlefield and serve their country.

His father's wish was that Yuwen Lingtian would act like the emperor and rush to the borders to battle on the battlefield. He would serve the country and ensure the safety of Xuanyuan Kingdom's registration while Xuanyuan Kingdom's royal family remained unharmed.

Yuwen Lingtian was a filial son in the first place, and at that time, he was already a general as well, so he didn't have any hesitation in asking the previous emperor for permission. He hoped that the previous emperor would agree to let him go to the borders to kill the enemy, serve the country, and make meritorious contributions for the country in order to protect Xuanyuan Kingdom's thousands of miles.

The first emperor, Long Yan, was overjoyed and immediately agreed to Yuwen Lingtian's request. He then personally raised his brush and wrote the three words "Marquis Ling Tian" on a plaque made entirely out of gold. Feng Yuwen Lingtian was Marquis Ling Tian, and if he died on the battlefield, the younger generation would be under the protection of Xuanyuan Kingdom for eternity.

The empress dowager, Yuwen Lingyue, deeply understood her little brother's intentions and knew that once she made a decision, she would be unable to change it again. She immediately ordered someone to create a jade pendant that was the only one in the entire Xuanyuan Kingdom, and before she left, she gave it to Yuwen Lingyue through the late emperor.

Afterwards, under the escort of a hundred officials of the imperial government, the late emperor, and the empress dowager, Yuwen Lingyue, he led ten thousand elite soldiers to the border pass. From then on, they guarded the border pass, protecting Xuanyuan Kingdom's ten thousand li of land.

Dongfang Ziqing's mouth was very wide open within the Palace of Tzu Ning. Her eyes were filled with intense shock.

Dongfang Ziqing would never have imagined that there would be so many secrets, so many secrets that no one knew about.

The empress dowager's name was Yuwen Lingyue, and she was a member of Yuwen Clan. Furthermore, she was the adopted daughter of her father.

As for General Yuwen, his name was Yuwen Lingtian, and he was actually the younger brother of the current empress dowager.

Even though it had been decades, Dongfang Ziqing was still incomparably shocked. After all, this was an enormous secret that concerned the entire royal family.

Presumably, even the Son of Heaven, Xuan Yuan, Chen Mo, didn't know that the General Yuwen who guarded the border for tens of years was his grandfather.

If this matter were to spread out, it was likely that the entire palace would explode. The entire inside story was something that no one could predict.

After all, not many people knew that Yuwen Lingyue, Yuwen Lingyue's younger brother, was the empress dowager at that time, and even less so know of it now.

"I didn't expect it to be like this." Dong Fang Ziqing muttered to herself in shock. She then went forward to kneel in front of Yuwen Lingyue and shouted, "Yanran greets Aunt."

"Good child, quickly get up." The empress dowager, Yuwen Lingyue, kindly said before looking at Yuwen Yanran with a pleased expression and said, "There are still a lot of later stories, do you want to hear them?"

"Right." Dongfang Ziqing nodded obediently.

Yuwen Lingyue, the empress dowager, smiled and nodded before sinking back into her thoughts.

Because their father's last wish before his death was to have his two sons fight in the battlefield to protect the country, Yuwen Lingtian requested for orders from the Emperor, hoping to head to the borders.

After receiving his agreement, Yuwen Lingtian rushed to the border with his brother.

At that time, Xuanyuan Kingdom was facing a powerful enemy. The two Yuwen Lingtian brothers heading towards the borders were no doubt providing timely assistance.

Forget about Yuwen Lingtian, just his brother was the life of a natural general.

At such a young age, his strength was unfathomable. He was extremely talented, and he was a capable person that fought on the battlefield.

As for Yuwen Lingtian, he was even more outstanding. Not only was his martial skill superb, his body was also full of martial arts, his courage, knowledge, and foresight was extraordinary. He was truly an outstanding talent.

In the second year after the two of them left, Yuwen Lingyue, the Empress Dowager of the Great Emperor, gave birth to a prince that filled the nation with joy.

After a few months of trekking, Yuwen and Ling Tian had finally arrived at Xuanyuan Kingdom's border area.

At that time, it just so happened that a strong enemy had arrived. The enemy generals were valiant and unparalleled, continuously beheading several generals of the Xuanyuan nation. There were no more generals in the borders who could take the field.

The old general who was guarding the border was so worried that he didn't even think about food. Unfortunately, he wasn't in a daze and couldn't do anything about it. The two Yuwen and Ling Tian had just arrived at the right time.

When the two entered the city, the old general came forth to receive them. He expressed his gratitude, and the imperial government sent out two more generals to help.

However, when he saw that the two brothers were only around twenty years old, he couldn't help but start to doubt them.

This was not surprising. Although Yuwen Lingtian and his brother could be considered robust, compared to the other generals, they were not worth mentioning. Yuwen Lingtian was even skinnier compared to his brother.

However, the generals within the city were all looking down on the two brothers in disdain.
