Queen Song has always loved Jiao Wanwan very much for such a son as Zhao Defang, the only daughter-in-law had an accident in the palace before she gave birth to a son-in-law, which greatly challenged the authority of Queen Song, Queen Song was shocked and angry, after knowing this, she didn't know how to persuade Zhao Kuangyin, in short, the palace began to purge.

Nearly a third of the people, including eunuchs and palace maids, were to be released from the palace. Among them, half of them disappeared after leaving the palace.

These things were completed in three or two days, although Jiao Wanwan said that she was in good health, but she soaked in cold water for nearly an hour on a cold day, and she was also sick for three or four days, and when she was completely well, the things in this palace basically came to an end.

Jiao Wanwan was both moved and uneasy: "These people disappeared when they left the palace, Daddy, won't they suspect it?" ”

Zhao Defang raised his hand and rubbed her hair: "You don't have to worry about these things, since I have done it, there is a way to sweep the tail, but this time it has nothing to do with the second uncle." ”

Jiao Wanwan blinked, a little incomprehensible, Zhao Defang patiently explained: "Originally, we guessed that the second uncle was going to attack you and kill people, but I checked it out, and it was a little eunuch in the palace who attacked you, and he had no connection with the second uncle." ”

Zhao Defang's face was a little unpleasant, and Jiao Wanwan was very puzzled: "Is it a little eunuch?" Why? The number of times I have entered the palace is only a handful, and I have always only been in the palace of my mother, in and out, and there are only a few people I have seen, especially the little eunuch in this palace, who can only call out the name of one slap, and the two slaps that I have met can also be counted, and there is no grievance with people, why should he harm me? ”

Zhao Defang's mouth moved a few times, and he was a little embarrassed: "This time I am the one who has affected you." ”

Jiao Wanwan is such a smart person, since Zhao Defang said that killing her has nothing to do with Zhao Guangyi's rebellion, it can only be that someone looks at her unpleasantly, and this murder is either money or hatred. She Jiao Wanwan has only been married for a few months, and when she was lifted into the water, she was neat and tidy, she didn't lose half of the jewelry on her body, and the husband sitting on the edge of the bed was like an immortal, if she couldn't guess the clue, it would be too stupid.

"Is it your peach blossom debt?" Jiao Wanwan raised her eyebrows and asked, Zhao Defang was even more embarrassed and didn't say anything. Jiao Wanwan folded her fingers and calculated: "The eunuchs in the palace who can command, or the eunuchs who can buy the eunuchs in this palace, this peach blossom's identity is not ordinary, right?" In addition to the three princesses in the palace, I remember, there are also pearls of the previous dynasty? ”

Zhao Kuangyin was enthroned by Chen Qiao's mutiny, and in order to show mercy, the heirs of the Chai family were not wiped out. Chai Zongxun, the last emperor of the Later Zhou Dynasty, was named King Zheng and moved to Fangzhou. Chai Zongxun had a younger sister who was left in the palace.

Although she is a princess of the previous dynasty, she is also the one who made the princess. Jiao Wanwan entered the palace before, and she had heard of it, but she had never seen it, and it was said that this princess did not like to see people and was seriously ill. Jiao Wanwan is not a very active person, if people don't say it, she won't go.

It's been nearly three months since I got married, and I've only heard of such a princess.

"Why don't you guess it's from outside the palace?" Zhao Defang asked with a smile, Jiao Wanwan pouted: "If the hands of people outside the palace are stretched out so long, whether it is a man or a woman, I am afraid that my father will not be able to tolerate it, right?" It's not that you don't want to die, the key chess piece, just to be jealous and waste it on me as a woman? ”

Collusion has always been a taboo for the emperor. No one will explain such an important connection to their daughter, and then let their daughter command.

Compared with the people outside, it is obvious that the people in this palace have more advantages. The princess of the previous dynasty, even if she was down, there were a few diehards around her. Since Zhao Defang said that there was an excuse to explain on the emperor's side, it must have nothing to do with the previous dynasty.

Perhaps, after taking care of the palace and eliminating those from the previous dynasty, the emperor will still be happy.

"She likes you, so, you want to get rid of me? Since she likes you, why didn't she plan before you got married? Jiao Wanwan sighed: "Now that we are all married, she came to harm me, it really makes no sense." ”

Zhao Defang snorted and laughed: "This kind of thing, what is the reason to talk about?" Besides, my father and mother would never let me marry the princess of the previous dynasty under any circumstances. She can only be a person in the back house of the second brother of the prince. ”

It's that Zhao Kuangyin is full of confidence and didn't leave any connections for the princess of the former dynasty, but with this name, there will always be some restless people who act under this name. If this princess follows Zhao Defang, maybe Zhao Defang and Zhao Dezhao brothers will turn against each other. If he marries a foreign minister, Zhao Kuangyin's own throne is a yellow robe, what if someone acts like this again?

Therefore, it is most appropriate to enter the harem. is like the Yang Concubine of the former Tang Dynasty. Zhao Kuangyin robbed Mrs. Hua Rui herself, and she also called Chai Rong a brother, so she would not accept Chai Rong's daughter, so this princess could only be left to Zhao Dezhao.

"This person is simply ......" Jiao Wanwan sighed: "I don't have the courage to pursue my own marital happiness, so it's too ...... to attack others Besides, she couldn't marry you before, is it possible that when you marry your stepfamily, will she have a little possibility? ”

Zhao Defang was a little weak-hearted, not that he really had anything to do with the princess of the previous dynasty, but that he felt that he had caused Jiao Wanwan to be involved in this matter, and it was also Jiao Wanwan's fate, and she could swim, otherwise, I am afraid that tonight, she might really die in Huangquan.

Seeing Jiao Wanwan asking, she hurriedly shook her head: "Even if it's the steproom, it won't be her turn, don't worry, your father and mother will give you an explanation for this matter." ”

Jiao Wanwan was puzzled: "What explanation do you give me?" Could it be that the princess will be thrown into prison? ”

"That's naturally not, but it won't treat you badly." Zhao Defang hurriedly said, paused, and said: "And the sentence you heard before, I investigated carefully, and really found a lot of clues, this time, you have also made a great contribution, and your father will also reward you." ”

"Found a clue?" Jiao Wanwan's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "Is the second uncle going to force the palace to rebel?" Otherwise, how could they replace all the guards with their own people? By the way, it's the second uncle's centaurs, right? ”

Saying that, Jiao Wanwan was a little puzzled: "Speaking of which, I don't understand, is the Jinkui Covenant really existing?" ”

If there is such a thing, it is no wonder that Zhao Kuangyin will be restrained. Before, Jiao Wanwan always felt that as long as Zhao Kuangyin's father and son knew that Zhao Guangyi had bad intentions towards them and was worried about the throne, this matter could be solved. After all, no emperor is willing to let people worry about their throne, not even their sons, let alone brothers.

Therefore, even the slightest suspicion can isolate Zhao Guangyi, at least, he has also collected the military power first. But Zhao Kuangyin is a very trusting Zhao Guangyi, no matter what he says, he can't slander the relationship between their brothers.

Jiao Wanwan also felt that Zhao Kuangyin was a little too righteous, and the righteous ones were a little stupid. It wasn't until she heard Zhao Guangyi's words later that Jiao Wanwan found a reason.

"What is the content of the Golden Covenant?" She looked up at Zhao Defang: "This thing is in the hands of the second uncle now?" In addition to this, what else does the second uncle have? ”

"The Golden Covenant was made when my grandmother was there, and only a few people know about it, so you can't say it." Zhao Defang hesitated for a moment before he came to Jiao Wanwan's ear, lowered his voice and explained: "The general content is that after a hundred years of father, this throne will be passed to the second uncle, and after a hundred years of the second uncle, it will be passed to the third uncle, and after a hundred years of the third uncle, the throne can be passed back to the eldest brother, or the eldest son of the eldest brother." This edict is in triplicate, dad here, second uncle, third uncle, one copy each. ”

Jiao Wanwan opened her mouth wide, this Empress Dowager Du is afraid that her sons will be too harmonious, right? I'm afraid they won't kill each other for the throne, right? This logic, this line of thinking, is really kneeling, and I can actually think of it!

"So, now Daddy is scrupling about this edict?" If something happens to Zhao Guangyi, I'm afraid that Zhao Guangmei will be able to take out the edict immediately. Empress Dowager Du used common interests to tie Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Guangmei into the same boat.

If Zhao Guangyi died, Zhao Guangmei would have to give it up even if it was for his own life.

"I don't know where the edict is now, if only I could find it." Zhao Defang sighed, and saw that Jiao Wanwan's face was a little tired, so he pressed her shoulder: "You just have to know these things in your own heart, can't you understand people?" “

If it weren't for Jiao Wanwan overhearing those words before and having already mixed them in, he would never have said these things. Sometimes, the more you know, the easier it is to die. But what I'm most afraid of is that I don't know a little about it, if I don't let her know more of the inside story, I'm afraid that she will be reckless for a while, and she will face the second uncle, or go to the third uncle alliance, that will be a bad thing.

So, either you don't know anything and are silly every day. Either they know it all, and they don't dare to interfere at will after being suppressed.

Zhao Defang lowered her voice and warned Jiao Wanwan a few words: "Even if it's my father's mother, you are not allowed to show the clues you already know, this matter is not a glorious thing for my father, understand?" ”

Jiao Wanwan nodded quickly: "I understand, don't worry, my mouth is tight, and I will never show a word, I swear!" After a pause, he was a little unwilling: "Then the princess ...... the former court?"

Zhao Defang smiled and pinched her cheek: "I know that you are a cautious person, didn't I say it?" Don't worry, since she has done such a thing, how can she do it without paying some price? You just wait, you are my wife, she is just an outsider, in my heart, you are the most important, I will not let you suffer in vain. ”
