Chapter 84: Concubine Qi Xian

Lin Yan vaguely remembered that the situation was urgent, and Lin Xian didn't have time to send her and the prince to the Lin family, and the men of the Lin family were also out on the expedition at that time, and the women, children and children in the mansion were not necessarily safe, so before she entered the palace, she hid her and the prince in a very hidden secret room in the emperor's study in the palace at that time, and prepared enough dry food and water for them, and warned them not to go out no matter what they heard.

But at that time, the prince was uncertain, and after staying in the secret room for a day, she was clamoring to go out, and she still remembered Lin Xian's words, so she kept coaxing the prince.

But then the prince didn't know how to find the mechanism by himself, opened the secret room and ran out, and then as soon as they got out of the secret room, they encountered the rebels who broke into the palace.

Later, they hid in the rice bowl in the kitchen, and she already vaguely understood the importance of the prince and Lin Xian to the Lin family, so there was a scene where she went out to lead the rebels to save the prince.

Mu Qing continued: "Actually, Empress Yuan not only made arrangements for you and the crown prince, but also for the second prince and the third prince, and hid the second prince and the third prince in different places respectively. In order not to put all the eggs in one basket, lest the rebels break into the palace, and even if one of the children is found, the other children of the palace can be saved.

At that time, there was a Wang Fengzhi in the palace, and it was the concubine of the emperor who was the prince at that time that the virtuous concubine was rewarded, but I didn't expect this to be Queen Chen's person. Later, Wang Fengzhi found the three princes and brought them into the palace. Therefore, the intellectual impairment of the third prince was not caused by the illness claimed to the outside world, but was caused by being poisoned in the palace. ”

It wasn't until now that Lin Yan heard it that she understood how thrilling and dangerous the changes in King Qi and Chen's harem were at that time.

Lin Yan asked again: "What about Wang Fengzhi?" ”

Mu Qing glanced at Lin Yan and said: "After King Qi and Empress Chen were defeated, she was made into a human by Concubine Cui Xian and soaked in the wine jar, but she was not allowed to die, and every day people prepared to feed her and drink water, and she did not die until half a year later. And the emperor turned a blind eye to this.

The woman in the palace, if she wants to torture someone, the means are really ruthless beyond your imagination.

Lin Yan was also a little embarrassed about this, I don't know if it was for the third prince or for the Wang Fengzhi who was made an adult.

In fact, Lin Yan has always been a little confused, King Qi wants to rebel and it is reasonable, Queen Chen's own prince is dead, King Qi is not her own child, whether it is the prince who is the emperor, it is no different for her, and she will be respected as the queen mother, why should she join in the excitement of King Qi, the defeat will affect the entire descendants.

Mu Qing explained to Lin Yan: "Because Empress Chen suspected that the second prince would poison the prince at that time, it was the emperor who provoked it. ”

Lin Yan was taken aback and asked, "What about ......?"

Mu Qing shook his head and said, "It's King Qi, King Qi's eloquence is very good, he can say that he is dead, and Queen Chen also believes his words." ”

Therefore, King Qi provoked the second prince to poison the crown prince, and the second prince was also cut down by the first emperor immediately, and King Qi blamed the emperor for provoking this matter, and then made Empress Chen hate the emperor and was willing to help him rebel at the risk of extermination.

Lin Yan asked again: "Then why does Empress Chen hate Concubine Xian so much, Queen Chen tricked her aunt into the palace and imprisoned her in order to threaten the emperor, and the purpose of imprisoning Concubine Xian should be the same." In this case, Empress Chen's goal has not been achieved, how can she be eager to poison Concubine Xian. ”

Mu Qingdao: "Because the first emperor loved Concubine Xian." ”

Lin Yan became more and more surprised, and asked, "Didn't you say that Concubine Xian was in the harem of the first emperor and was not favored?" ”

Mu Qingdao: "Yes, the first emperor did not favor the virtuous concubine, he loved the virtuous concubine." If there is anyone in the harem of the first emperor who can enter the heart of the first emperor, I am afraid that only the virtuous concubine is the virtuous concubine. ”

Mu Qing sighed, and continued: "Niangniang, you know that Concubine Xian was married before entering the palace. After the first emperor ascended the throne, Concubine Xian's fiancé died inexplicably, and then Concubine Xian was taken into the palace by the first emperor. In fact, at that time, everyone speculated that the death of Concubine Xian's fiancé was an accident caused by the first emperor. ”

Lin Yan didn't speak, waiting for Mu Qing to continue.

Mu Qing continued: "Concubine Xian lost her father and mother since she was a child, and she grew up with her grandmother. At that time, the Qi family was not good to the ancestors and grandchildren of the virtuous concubine, at that time, the Qi family was in charge of the concubine's maternal grandfather's room, which was the long room, and the long house also had the intention of oppressing the orphans and widows to seize the family wealth of the concubine's house, and relied on the wit of the virtuous concubine to keep the property, but now the third room of the Qi family is in charge, and he took care of the ancestors and grandchildren of the virtuous concubine back then. ”

Lin Yan said in her heart, no wonder Wu Guifei always likes her cousin to call the emperor when her cousin goes, but the emperor doesn't have much pity for this cousin, and he is not interested in this title.

"The first emperor, who was still the crown prince at the time, went out of the palace and met Concubine Xian, and had a personal affair with Concubine Xian, and wanted her to enter the palace. But at that time, the crown prince already had the crown princess Chen, and the concubine Xian was unwilling to enter the palace, so she finally agreed to a family affair set for her by her grandmother. Soon after, Emperor Taizong died, Emperor Xian succeeded to the throne, and then Concubine Xian's fiancé died, and Concubine Xian entered the palace.

After Concubine Xian entered the palace, the emperor was almost full of favor to her, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a collection of thousands of favors. But even Concubine Xian suspected that the death of her fiancé was related to the first emperor, and she looked at the first emperor coldly, but the first emperor still flattered and pampered Concubine Xian, and even sealed the marquis to the deceased parents of Concubine Xian, and the harem was unmatched. ”

Lin Yan asked, "Then how did Concubine Xian fall out of favor later?" ”

Mu Qing sighed and said, "It's not too late for Concubine Xian to enter the palace, and she is such a divine favor, but why is the emperor only ranked seventh?" ”

Lin Yan's eyes moved, and she said, "Could it be ......?"

Mu Qing nodded and said, "Before Concubine Xian was in the emperor, there was a prince and a princess, and they didn't live the full moon, so naturally there was no discussion of young teeth. Even when he gave birth to the emperor, he was also plotted by others, although he gave birth to the emperor safely, but he damaged his body and could not give birth again. Since then, the first emperor has understood that his favor for Concubine Xian will only bring many dangers to Concubine Xian, and then he gradually snubbed Concubine Xian, and he was not close to the emperor, and others only felt that the emperor was disgusted with Concubine Xian, and he didn't even like the emperor. But these can hide from ordinary people, how can they hide from the thoughtful women in the harem. Empress Chen, Concubine Duan Gui, Concubine Cao, these people are eager to eat their flesh and drink their blood when they see Concubine Xian.

And after the death of the crown prince, although the emperor had the support of the Lin family and the Wu family, he was still not a descendant, but the first emperor still made him the crown prince, which is not without reason. ”

Lin Yan sighed, only sighing for Concubine Xian, but she didn't sympathize with the emperor at all.

keeps saying that he loves Concubine Xian, but the harem is not one after another, but as long as his harem can be less peaceful, Concubine Xian will not be so dangerous in the harem.

Lin Yan asked again: "Does the virtuous concubine love the first emperor?" ”

Mu Qing looked at the octagonal palace lamp on the wall, as if he was looking at the distant distance, paused, and then said: "Probably love, otherwise it wouldn't be after the death of the first emperor, she also followed with discouragement and soon followed." She probably loved and resented the first emperor. ”
