Chapter 263: That's the Way! (2nd Update)
Because of Mo Li, Han Jiangxue knew very early on that the emperor's real favorite candidate for the prince was the young seventeenth prince.
And for so many years, the emperor has been extremely well hidden, and the kind of protection for the seventeenth prince is also the most suitable. It's just that no matter how cautious and cautious you are, there is a saying that paper can't hold fire, and there is never an impermeable wall in this world.
Mo Li knew the emperor's true thoughts, and there must be others who could guess it, so it was normal for someone to attack the seventeenth prince. Especially now that the crown prince is under house arrest, if someone has the heart to get rid of the seventeenth prince, it is naturally the best time.
But the seventeenth prince has no special background, and there is nothing too different from other princes, let alone the so-called amazing talent, but why can the emperor go so hard to hand over the entire Dongming country to such a small child?
Han Jiangxue couldn't figure this out anyway, and the muttering was just casually, not thinking that Mo Li could know the reason.
However, what Han Jiangxue didn't expect was that Mo Li had really found out the inside story.
"The seventeenth prince is actually not the emperor's son." Mo is silent, but it is really amazing.
Han Jiangxue couldn't believe her ears, and instantly retorted: "How is it possible? If the seventeenth prince was not the emperor's son, how could the emperor bother so much to pass on the throne to him? ”
"Listen to me." Mo Li's expression was calm, signaling Jiang Xue not to worry.
See also below. Moreover, Mo Li's expression was quite calm, and Han Jiangxue naturally subconsciously put away some surprise and waited for Mo Li's next words.
"The seventeenth prince should actually be the emperor's own grandson. His father was an illegitimate son of the emperor, who had not yet succeeded to the throne and had a woman he loved very much before his wedding. ”
Mo Li simply threw out a shocking news at this moment that was even more shocking than the previous words, Han Jiangxue was so shocked that she couldn't even speak, so she simply didn't say anything, but stared at Mo Li with blank eyes, waiting for more inside information.
It turned out that before the emperor succeeded to the throne, there was a woman who was very fond of her. It's just that the woman's background is quite humble, even if it was not possible to give the emperor who was still the crown prince a side room at that time. But the emperor loved the woman for ten minutes, and originally wanted to wait until he succeeded to the throne to find a way to give the woman a better position. Let the beloved be by his side.
But the woman was very resolute, and she didn't know the emperor's identity when she first knew the emperor, and when she knew everything, she left alone on the occasion of the emperor's wedding. Since then, there has been no news since.
And this matter has always been an absolute palace secret. After the woman's disappearance, no one has mentioned it since. At that time, almost all the people around the emperor were replaced, and everyone no longer knew that the emperor had such a secret.
In fact, after the emperor succeeded to the throne, he never gave up the secret search for the woman, but there was no news.
Seven years ago, the emperor had tried all his best to find the whereabouts of the woman, but what was waiting for him was a handful of loess.
It turned out that the woman was pregnant when she left that year, and then gave birth to a baby boy. When the baby boy was ten months old. The woman died of illness and left the baby boy to be raised by a trusted friend before she died.
The family did their best to raise the boy. took care of him very well, and married a good wife for him, and his life was not bad. Unfortunately, when the emperor made a fuss to find his beloved and the son born to him, he didn't want to go a step too late.
The child born to the emperor and his beloved unfortunately contracted smallpox that year, and the child's wife was also infected, and the husband and wife died of smallpox together.
The emperor was very distressed, but he was powerless to return to heaven, and the blow of losing his beloved wife and son all of a sudden made his decades-long persistence almost collapse completely. Fortunately, the son also left him a grandson who had just completed the moon, and this one-month-old boy naturally became the only spiritual sustenance left by the emperor.
He took the little baby back to the palace, secretly swapped the son born to the first palace concubine in the palace, and raised the child of his beloved son by his side, and this little baby was the seventeenth prince.
After hearing all this, Han Jiangxue was really speechless for a long time, never thought that the selfish and ruthless emperor would have such an infatuation. Unexpectedly, because of such an internal affair, the emperor did not hesitate to abolish the crown prince, and put the children of his beloved and the children born to him on the throne.
"Well, in fact, I think the emperor is really a little paranoid."
After a while, Han Jiangxue said with emotion: "If he wants to pass on the throne to his beloved woman and the son born to him, this is relatively easy to accept, the son is gone, but he insists on putting this obsession on his son's son, and it is estimated that even he can't tell whether it is a guilt for his beloved wife and children or a demon obstacle in his own heart." ”
"The bystanders are clear, the authorities are confused, maybe this is the most appropriate thing to use on him." Mo Li agreed with Jiang Xue's point of view very much, and then said: "Now that the seventeenth prince is dead, the last trace of obsession in the emperor's heart has no direction to continue, I am afraid that there will be great changes in the palace soon!" ”
The palace changes that Mo Li mentioned are not only the open and secret battles between the princes for the throne, but also include various changes in behavior that no one can expect after the emperor's mentality changes.
"So, is there any connection between the death of the Seventeenth Prince and our incident this time?" Of course, Han Jiangxue is more concerned about themselves, the seventeenth prince is dead, this matter must have nothing to do with the emperor, but will it have anything to do with her being designed to be fakely poisoned this time?
Mo Li shook his head and said: "At present, it seems that on the surface, the death of the Seventeenth Prince should have nothing to do with this matter on our side for the time being, but it is not known what will be caused by this matter in the future. ”
After hearing this, Han Jiangxue nodded slightly, and couldn't help but ponder, it seems that the drama they are going to watch in the hidden shadows this time is far bigger than they imagined before.
I don't know how this play will be played, and I don't know what it will be like in the end, but Han Jiangxue has a faint premonition that because of the death of the seventeenth prince, I am afraid that all the dramas will become more and more intense!
Packing up their mood, Han Jiangxue and Mo Li went to the garden again to continue to work in the piece of land that had just started yesterday, but in the afternoon, someone from the Han family suddenly ran to summon them.
Han Feng will not be in the mansion, but it is rare for Han Jing to happen to be at home at this time.
The palace people sent a decree and asked Han Jiangxue to enter the palace immediately, saying that the emperor had something to ask Han Jiangxue.
Han Jing was secretly surprised in his heart, the seventeenth prince had just died, the emperor was overly sad, and his emotions were extremely unstable, and he heard that many people had died due to the death of the seventeenth prince for no reason.
Isn't this the emperor making every effort to thoroughly investigate the cause of death of the seventeenth prince, how could he suddenly want to see his sister for no reason?
Fortunately, my sister will not be in the mansion, so Han Jing breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what, it is estimated that it will not be a good thing to enter the palace. If Jiang Xue is here, of course, it is impossible not to resist the order, but now that he is not there, he is just right to go to this matter.
He quickly explained that Han Jiangxue was not in the house now, and he left the capital early yesterday morning to seek medical treatment in other places, and he had rare patience to explain the situation that the sister was poisoned, so that the palace people could go back to the business.
It's just that after Han Jing said everything, the people in the palace didn't buy it, and insisted that the search confirmed that Han Jiangxue was indeed not there, otherwise he would not be able to return to the palace to return to his life.
In this way, Han Jing was naturally very angry, how could the dignified Han Mansion be able to search like this? In this way, wouldn't a small eunuch be able to step on the Han family at will?
What's more, there is no will in the emperor's will that no one must be searched, and these palace people have other plans.
"Presumptuous, where are you in our Han family? I said that my sister is not here now, yesterday so many people watched King Mo take her out to seek medical treatment, if you don't believe it, you can go to King Mo's Mansion to ask, see if King Mo is still in the mansion! ”
Han Jing was very annoyed, of course, it was impossible for people to manipulate it at will: "If you insist on searching, it's okay, but you have to go back to the palace first to ask for the holy decree of searching!" Our Han family has not yet fallen to the point where even a eunuch can do whatever he wants! ”
Han Jing's words were not negotiable, and when the eunuch saw this, it was not easy to advance or retreat, and when the two sides were at a stalemate, the sixth prince suddenly came to the door.
As soon as the six princes arrived, after asking about the situation, they immediately waved their hands to let the eunuch who delivered the decree temporarily retreat.
Instead, he asked with great concern: "Master Han, I don't know what kind of poison Ling Mei has been in?" Is it serious or not, is there any danger to life? Where are they going to get medical care now, and I wonder how I can help? ”
Seeing the six princes like this, Han Jing had a fire and it was not easy to send it again, so he had to say: "I'm worried about King Qing, my sister's situation is not very good, I can't say what kind of poison it is, I heard Mo Li say that it is an extremely rare poison, and there is no one who can solve it near the capital, so I went to a place called What Divine Doctor Valley was early yesterday morning." At that time, they were in a hurry, and I didn't know exactly where they were, and my father was also in a hurry for the past two days, wanting to know how my sister was doing. ”
"So, you said that no one is there, how can you enter the palace? I didn't say a word of lie, they didn't believe it, and they had to use this as an excuse to forcibly search my Han family, and they didn't know what they wanted to do! ”
Han Jing complained, and as soon as his words fell, he didn't want someone to come to this mansion again!
