When Wu Qi left Dadu, he went to his father for this trip. His father suddenly changed his normal behavior and pulled him to talk about his childhood.

At that time, my mother was still in the world.

"Your mother was killed, do you know?"

"I...I don't know." The news was too shocked. Wu Qi was speechless for a moment when he lost his mother's pain and miserable life without the protection of his mother.

"Your mother is kind. When I first ascended the throne, she transformed me, a fool who knew nothing, and taught me everything."

"The Queen Mother doesn't care about the government affairs." Wu Qi did not dare to admit that his Queen Mother was the smartest and capable, for fear that his father would be angry and deprived of everything about his mother.

"Your mother never showed her talent in front of anyone, and even her own son didn't know. Your mother died generously, just to protect you."

"..." An electric current flowed from the top of Wu Qi's head to the soles of his feet.

"Your mother is not pregnant with you, and none of those children survived except you." His voice trembled and astringent, as if these words were repeated in his mind. Today, he finally found a listener who had to spit out everything he knew.

Maybe he had been hiding for too long and had accumulated anger for too long. When he spoke, he kept holding Wu Qi's hand hard and conveying his anger to Wu Qi.

"Your mother and the Empress of Chu are sisters, and your mother is sister. They both came from places that cannot be said, and they escaped together, trying to find a place to hide."

Wu Qi slid down from the chair beside him and knelt at the feet of his father. When his father saw Wu Qi quietly guarding him, he lowered his head and whispered in his ear: "I heard that this place is not something that ordinary people can make people stupid and crazy."

Wu Qi did not respond. He had never heard of half a word from his mother's mouth. Today, he could hear it from his father's mouth. It must be that his mother loved his father so much.

"Your mother died at the hands of her own sister."

Wu Qi didn't understand why his father said this.

He shook his arms twice and signaled Wu Qi to pay attention to what he was going to say next.

"Your mother and I have expanded the Wu Kingdom from a small territory to such a large territory. Your mother said that there are too many people suffering in this world. They bring over those who have been war-torn lands, so that those suffering people on the land can enjoy peaceful days, so that they can lie down and rest with peace, and eat the food they get after their labor, and avoid being frozen on cold days, and cool on hot days, which is enough."

Wu Qi immediately understood that his father would pass on his mother's trust to him through his own way. He nodded heavily and said that he could understand.

"Where our army went, we did not get resistance from the local people. Instead of turning them into slaves, we gave them food, gave them seeds, helped them build houses and settle down. The people on these lands cheered and bowed to our people, and also organized guards for our people. In this way, our lands continued to extend there, there, there."

A secret door was quietly opened where his finger pointed, and it turned out that the map had been hanging on the wall in the study. Wu Qi remembered that before his mother passed away, the study room was burned in a fire. His mother's back was charged with this crime. He was dragged down by his father and was taken care of by himself. Since then, he has never seen his mother again.

These are several drawings of different geological objects, which are collaged together to form a complete map of the Wu Kingdom.

"Are you angry?"

The secret door was closed quietly again, and his father asked him in a low voice.

Wu Qi nodded, not wanting to hide his mood.

"This is your mother's idea, I just chose to obey."

Wei Wei did not want to interrupt his father's speech, so he flattered his mouth and stared at his father with tears in his eyes.

When the father's face also touched, Wu Qi was stunned. It turned out that his father was the same as him, no, he felt even more heartbroken.

"Your mother's body can no longer bear poison. She was afraid that her sister would not give up, so she made this bad decision. She told the outside world that I would not show her map and prevent her, so she used her temperament and burned the study. Do you know that your mother is also very smart in this regard? The secret room was designed by her and made by her own hands."

Wu Qi turned around and looked there again. There was no trace of the secret door that could make people pay attention.

"Your mother, if you live in the world for one day, her sister will not give up. Do you know why?" He asked a question here, making Wu Qi feel like he was showing off to him.

"My son doesn't know."

"The emperor of Chu State likes your mother, but your mother doesn't like him, but his sister insists on her. Their appearances are very similar. In the end, the sister gets married on behalf of her sister."

Wu Qi opened his mouth wide, how could a person look like?

"Your mother's character wants your sister to be much gentler. If you compare it with water, your mother is the sea and her sister is Jianghe. Looking at her sister's gentle and honest, it is actually just a mask for her. In the future, you will tear the mask apart, and she has been dressed up with your mother for too long."

It seemed that saying this made his father even more resentful and made a promise like an oath.

After receiving his response, his father continued, "Your mother has not learned to develop poisons or poisons. And these are just taking away your mother's life step by step." His father let go of his hand holding his hands tightly, quickly stuck his hands on Wu Qi's shoulders, and shook them back and forth for a few times. It seemed that there was still hidden all kinds of unwillingness in it, but he was unable to tell the pain.

Wu Qi allowed his father to do this, waiting, waiting, waiting...

His father calmed down and continued, "Your current opportunity is something that your mother cannot get. It must be that your mother protects you from heaven and relieves the poison on you."

Wu Qi didn't understand, how could he be poisoned? Maybe he was scared by his mother's death and was suspicious.

"Your mother found that her sister extended her claws to you, in order to protect you and to make her realize that you are the only relative in this world, she transferred the poison on your body to herself, and thus died."

Wu Qi's heart suddenly became cold. It turned out that when his father saw him, he looked disgusted.

"Child, don't take it to your heart. Your mother has already prepared some adult gifts for you and for our Wu Kingdom. Remember to get it in the future, don't panic, don't doubt, don't retreat. You are your mother's baby son, you are the future of our Wu Kingdom. Your mother wants you to do, do you remember?"

"The Queen Mother said that there are too many people suffering in this world. Come over those lands that have been war-torn, so that those suffering people on the land can enjoy peaceful days, so that they can lie down and rest with peace, eat the food they get after their labor, and avoid being frozen on cold days, and cool on hot days, which is enough."

"Oh, your memory is good. Back then, every word I said in the court was taught by your mother. I kept it in mind over and over again, and it was not bad. Your mother said that if you change or lose a word in a sentence, or if the pronunciation is wrong, the meaning of the words will change, so that the ministers who are doing things below will not get an accurate direction and the government orders cannot be accurately implemented."

"Is this what my mother said?" Wu Qi was a little excited.

"Hmph, I repeat your mother's words as a true saying."

Seeing that Wu Qi showed off his father's expression, Gu followed his words and said that the father and son were talking so harmoniously for the first time in many years.
