Chapter 109: The New Emperor of the Red Dome
Xuan Shao didn't expect Jing Lin to suddenly ask himself, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said: "A long time ago, he was brought back from the gladiatorial arena of the Red Dome Country by the former emperor, and was named the commander of the Praetorian Guard for sacrificing his life to save the first emperor......
"Then do you know why he became a gladiator in the gladiatorial arena? Where did he come from before he entered the Colosseum? ”
Being asked like this, Xuan Shao was really stunned, indeed, he was almost completely ignorant of what happened before Xin came to Shangling City. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Believe in Him ......"
On the other side, Mu Yunmo rested in Cangxuan Pavilion for a long time before setting off back to Chiqiong.
When he returned home, he saw that Mu Yan was not there, so he went to the Tinglan Water Pavilion where Mu Yunchun lived. As soon as Fang entered the house, the mist of water accompanied by the fragrance of flowers rushed to his face, Mu Yunchun didn't like to be surrounded by medicinal gas all day long, so he used flower juice to transfer it into the medicinal bath every day, and his heart felt better.
"But the lazy man has returned? The country has been turned upside down. Mu Yunchun saw that it was her sister who came in, leaned on the wooden barrel with one hand on her cheek, and looked at her lazily.
"It's just according to their script, is there anything else besides He Di Haoye who will succeed him?" Mu Yunmo shrugged indifferently.
"Yes, Empress Fu paved the road for so long earlier, doing everything she could, the calculating emperor, oh no, it should be said that the heirs of the first emperor were thin, and the prince who survived well was only one of the three princes who was mentally incomplete due to congenital deficiencies in addition to her son, and she could not pose a threat at all, and now that He Di Haoye has succeeded to the throne smoothly, she can be regarded as 'merit-fulfilling'." Mu Yunchun sneered disdainfully, "But sooner or later, this throne will belong to the crown prince, why should she take risks and be so anxious?" ”
"She knew that the emperor had no affection for her, so she colluded with Qi Ling, the two of them took what they needed, Empress Fu wanted to become the queen mother as soon as possible, and Qi Ling finally held the highest real power in the red dome, and Concubine Qin was a chess piece for them, and as soon as the emperor died, he was pulled out as a scapegoat and punished the nine clans." Mu Yunmo shook his head.
"It's just that this He Di Haoye is unbearable, likes beauty, and is impatient and shallow, so he is really not a person who can take on a big job." Mu Yunchun remembered He Di Haoye's lascivious face, and pouted.
"Because of this, he is the best puppet candidate, if he is really an emperor's talent, Qi Ling is not easy to handle."
"In short, in the future, in the DPRK, I am afraid that the people of my Mufu will have to walk on thin ice."
"That's why I've only been hiding for a few days, so that they don't have to do anything with me at this juncture, as for you never going out of the house, and Mu Yan doesn't have an official position in his body and doesn't need to go to court, they can live in peace for a few days if they can't catch the handle." Referring to Mu Yan, Mu Yunmo then asked, "Where did Mu Yan go?" It doesn't seem to be in the house. ”
"He went to the neighborhood of seven early in the morning." Mu Yunchun didn't mention that he had gone to Cangxuan Pavilion to look for Mu Yunmo, she was very curious, since Mu Yan went to find his sister, the two of them should come back together, why did he come back first, and the time difference between the two was less than half a day, but since Mu Yan repeatedly asked him not to mention this matter in the morning, she didn't say much.
Mu Yunchun didn't tell him, so Mu Yunmo naturally wouldn't have thought that Mu Yan went to Qimang Mountain that day, but happened to see her and Xuan Shao returning from the direction of Xizhao side by side, so he didn't stay for another second, and Mu Yan returned to Qisha City.
At this moment, Mu Yunmo only said thoughtfully: "Seven neighborhoods." ”
"What? The letter was drugged in the tea of the former emperor, and the former emperor already knew about it? Xuan Shao looked at Jinglin in disbelief.
Xuan Shao was already very surprised when he learned everything about Yu Chixin's past from Jing Lin's mouth: what was his identity before he became a gladiator, why he appeared in the gladiatorial arena, and why he followed the emperor back to Shangling City, Xuan Shao was already very surprised, but when he heard Jing Lin say that Yu Chixin poisoned the emperor in order to take revenge, and the emperor still drank those poisonous teas when he learned about it, his eyes widened and he almost got up from his seat.
"Yes, when the imperial grandfather was dying, he summoned me and my father to his side, told us everything about the faith, and made a final decree that we should not ask the guilty Wei Chi Xin, and continue to trust and reuse the Wei Chi Xin. The emperor's grandfather has always felt guilty about the forcible destruction of the Thousand Plains Kingdom back then......"
For that war, Xuan Shao had heard something from his father's mouth, that was the only dark history of Shangling City, in order to capture that country, the methods of the army of Shangling City could be said to be extremely fierce and cruel, and even slaughtered the city. The army and the royal family kept the war secret, the historians did not record it, and the people avoided talking about it, and it was gradually forgotten.
In the end, the kingdom of Qianyuan was destroyed, and the victorious imperial grandfather became suspicious of his past practices, and even fell seriously ill for several months due to worry. When he returned to Shangling City with the letter, the emperor's grandfather knew that he was old, and he took a fancy to the letter of character and ability, so he hoped that he could assist his father and me, but the emperor's grandfather also knew that the hatred in his faith would not be eliminated for a while, so he chose to let him let go of his hatred and be loyal to Xizhao in that way. ”
In addition to being full of reverence for the tolerance and benevolence of the emperor, Xuan Shao's heart is also deeply aware that in the last two years of the emperor's life, there was the tiger eyeing of the Red Dome Country, and the hearts of the people in the court of Shangling City were floating inside, and the nobles had their own thoughts, and if they were not careful, it would cause huge turmoil and disaster, so when they were dying, they wanted to pave the way for their children and grandchildren, and Wei Chixin, who had excellent dancing skills, integrity and no aristocratic background, was the best candidate, so the emperor exchanged his life for Yu Chixin's allegiance to his son. This is the heart of a father, but also the heart of an emperor.
"Ah Shao, I will only tell you about Xin and the emperor's grandfather, because Xin is the common brother of you and me, and I don't want to hide his past from you, but you must also understand that this is a secret matter of the royal family after all." Jinglin looked at Xuan Shao with a rare seriousness in his eyes.
When Xuan Shao heard this, he got up and went to Jinglin, half-knelt down and said, "The minister will not leak out a word." ”
Jinglin got up and gave him a hand, "Sit down, I believe in you, and I will tell you." ”
"Then you and Your Majesty already know everything, do you believe he knows?"
Jinglin shook his head: "Since it is the will of the imperial grandfather, the origin of Wei Chixin and the fact that he drugged the imperial grandfather, after the imperial grandfather returned to heaven, my father and I never mentioned it again, nor did we say it to the letter." At the beginning, when I learned that he drugged the emperor's grandfather, my heart was very entangled and heartbroken, even though I was like a brother and sister with him, when facing him, it was impossible to say that I did not have a little hatred in my heart, but Wei Chixin's personality and his loyalty to Xizhao, my father and I have seen it in our eyes over the years, so I have slowly let go of my grudges over the years, and my father has relied on him very much. ”
"So what does this past have to do with Xin being framed and imprisoned and Pei Xiu?" Xuan Shao asked puzzled. (To be continued.) )
