Chapter 736: The Sun family, the mastermind behind the scenes
PS: Next month, sweep the tail, fill in the pits, and make a new book, the update is not fixed, try to ensure that there is one chapter a day, and there are about twenty or thirty chapters, please understand!
The story is very long, Meng Yan listened to it patiently, and the second half is basically the same as Fang Junhe.
The slight nuance is that the assassin mistook Jing Ci Xianshi and his sister Hu Shanwei.
None of the assassins were able to pass, and all of them were exterminated by the internal guards arranged by Meng Xian and Empress Dowager Zhang to protect Jingci.
And Meng Xian's wife actually blocked a knife for her sister, and soon died of her injuries, and the child in her womb was not born at all.
So, there was no injury at all, miscarriage, or dystocia or anything like that.
This is a decision made by Meng Xian after discussing with his wife and Empress Hu, keeping Hu Shanwei's death a secret, and then waiting for Empress Hu to give birth to a child, saying that it was born to Hu Shanwei, and then Hu Shanwei collapsed and passed away after giving birth.
The secret of Hu Hou's childbirth was completely concealed.
Since Empress Sun has already dealt such a heavy poison to a woman who abolished the throne, if she knew that Empress Hu gave birth to a prince, she would definitely not let it go.
This woman is very vicious, and in order to become the queen, she does not hesitate to use the son of the palace to pretend to be her son.
When Empress Dowager Zhang learned of this, she was furious, but all the assassins were dead, and there was no evidence that the Qiē was instigated by Empress Sun.
In the end, Empress Dowager Zhang agreed that according to Meng Xian, only by fostering the son of Empress Hu in his name could he escape the catastrophe, otherwise, Empress Sun would never give up.
Empress Dowager Zhang also concealed this matter from the emperor, only saying that Empress Hu had bad yin and yang, gave birth to a baby girl, and soon died, and also got a baby girl who died before she was sent to the palace. Asked the emperor to see it together.
The emperor believed it, and Empress Hu recuperated in the Meng Mansion for some days, and then returned to the palace and lived in Chang'an Palace.
After the death of Empress Dowager Zhang, Empress Hu lost her support in the palace, and Empress Sun's son had ascended the throne as emperor. His son didn't know where he was, and he didn't see him until he died.
When Empress Hu returned to the palace, the two palace maids around her, one was Sai Xiaoyu and the other was Chunhong, two people, one put on a mask and joined the Jinyi Guard, which was arranged by Empress Dowager Zhang, mainly to protect Empress Hu's son.
Empress Dowager Zhang allocated a not weak protective force for Sai Xiaoyu. This power is hidden in the brocade guard.
Not many people know, Guo Nu and Meng Xian are insiders.
Meng Xian came out of the Han General Camp, the purpose was to reduce the attention of the Empress Sun to him, and he was a brocade guard hundred, and no one felt that he was a threat, raising his wife's widow alone.
And Chunhong entered the secret spy of the Jiaofang, which was also arranged by the old queen mother, which can be regarded as a double insurance.
Count it this way. Hu Hu, the commander of the order, is also an insider.
Empress Sun always doubted Meng Yan's true identity and tried it repeatedly. even deliberately mentioned Meng Xian's son in front of Empress Hu, and asked Meng Xian to take his son into the palace to see her aunt.
Of course, Empress Hu knew Empress Sun's sinister intentions, and once she saw her son, she would definitely be unable to suppress her admiration, and she would inevitably be seen through by Empress Sun when the time came.
She endured the pain and refused, saying that she was already a monk. You shouldn't be greedy for the world, and you can't even see your parents, let alone your brother-in-law and nephew?
At that time, the emperor was still on the throne, and the queen did not dare to go too far, if the matter was revealed. She has no benefit.
And her son is already the crown prince, and his status has been decided, as long as he can survive until the emperor's life is whimpered, and her son ascends the throne, there will be no threat.
But Empress Sun is suspicious, which Meng Xian and Empress Dowager Zhang both know, so as soon as the emperor is seriously ill, the imperial doctor does not have much time to diagnose.
The old queen mother knew that once the son of the queen ascended the throne, she would definitely not let go of Meng Yan's father and son.
Therefore, they discussed it and sent Meng Yan away, so a purposeful undercover plan began.
Meng Yan, who was only eight years old at the time, participated in rigorous training, and half a year later, entered the Tatar court as a Tatar.
At that time, Meng Yan naturally didn't know his true identity, and thought that his father was too ruthless to himself, how could he send his own son to the enemy country to go undercover, it was all nine deaths, and even if he died in a foreign country, no one might know.
"Chun Niang, what's the use of you telling this official, even if these are facts, what can you do?"
"Master Meng, if it weren't for the dethronement of Niangniang, you would be today." Chun Niang said a little excitedly.
"You're trying to say that I might be the one who is alone, right?"
"Lord Meng, this is originally yours, the queen used the son of the palace to deceive the first emperor and steal the throne, shouldn't it be set right?"
"Isn't the son of the first emperor the son of the palace, he also has royal blood, according to reason, he is also qualified to inherit the throne, and I, whose identity is not yet known, am I qualified to say this?" Meng Yan Road.
"Doesn't Lord Meng want to avenge your adoptive father?"
"I will take revenge, but what you want, the official can't give it, why don't you continue to go incognito and live a peaceful life?" Meng Yan asked.
"There are some things that are hard to turn back when you do them." Chun Niang smiled sadly.
"What did you do?" Meng Yan asked uncertainly.
"Over the years, I have used Chunfeng Lou to grasp the privacy and handle of many generals in the border army, and they are now under my control." Chun Niang said.
"What?" Meng Yan was taken aback.
"I have a clear division of labor with Sai Xiaoyu, I guarantee your safety, and she is responsible for investigating the case of the year."
"You're in charge of my safety?" Meng Yan was really unbelievable, he never felt that someone was protecting him.
"Yes, your safety in the Tatar court is my responsibility." Chun Niang said, "I know Lord Meng doesn't believe it, but the truth is that you are not the only one in our Tatar court, but they don't know your identity. ”
"You already know my cunzài?"
"Yes, only a few people know about your existence, I, Sai Xiaoyu, plus Fu Xiaochen and Guo Nu, and Lord Ling." Chun Niang said.
"Don't you know?"
"She knows, but if you really are the son of an immortal master. Then how dare Meng Xian take such a big risk to send you to the Tartar royal court to go undercover? Chun Niang said, "So, she believes it, you are the son of Meng Xian, you look very similar to the immortal master, but the immortal master's sister is Meng Xian's wife." There are similarities between the sisters, so your appearance does not arouse her suspicion. ”
"What is the purpose of what you said when you came to see this official?"
"I'm afraid that adults will fall for Fang Junhe, this person is scheming, he was the core figure of the assassination back then, and he is also one of the few people who are still alive." Chun Niang said.
"How do you know his identity?"
"At first, I didn't know his identity, but later I found out that Fang Junhe was secretly working for a force in addition to serving Guo Jing. This force is very secretive, with mysterious members and deep pockets.
So we began to investigate him, and finally found out that he actually had a secret relationship with the Sun family, and later found out that Fang Junhe once wanted to enter the palace as a eunuch.
Entering the palace as a eunuch?
It's the same as the mortal in the Bao'en Temple, and the cause is the same, no wonder. They can be a group.
"I don't know why Fang Junhe didn't purify himself, but followed Guo Jing to do things. gradually became Guo Jing's most trusted confidant and strategist. ”
Meng Yan somewhat understood, the border smuggling profits are huge, and the queen Sun spends a lot of money in the palace, she comes from a small family, even if the emperor gives her the silver every year, she has to make friends with all kinds of people in the palace. That's not enough.
There must be a stable source of wealth, and this Fang Junhe is actually one of the tools for the queen to make money.
And putting him next to Guo Jing was even more carefully arranged, and Guo Jing himself was also in the business of smuggling.
In this way, the source of wealth of Empress Sun was hidden under Guo Jing's hands. Guo Jing himself didn't know that in fact, less than one-third of the profits from Fang Junhe's smuggling every year went into his pocket.
The remaining two-thirds actually became the financial backing of the Empress Sun and the Sun family.
Of course, in addition to smuggling, Fang Junhe also helped Guo Jing run many other industries, which were also very profitable, such as the salt introduction in Kaizhong, Guo Jing almost didn't care, all of them were taken care of by Fang Junhe.
secretly smuggling smuggled salt, which is almost a stable source of wealth, under the banner of Guo Jing, Fang Junhe almost does everything without losing money.
And these businesses can't be done alone, there are always partners, and these partners are carefully selected by him.
To put it bluntly, behind these people is the Empress Sun and the Sun family.
As soon as Guo Jing fell, these fixed assets naturally went into the Sun family's pockets, who has the ability to let the Sun family spit out these things?
You said that these properties were illegally operated by Guo Jing, and there is no evidence to be found on the surface.
From the very beginning, Fang Junhe deceived Guo Jing, of course, as long as Guo Jing is in power for a day, his money and profits can be seen, but what can be seen, that thing is still in Fang Junhe's hands.
Except for Guo Jing, who spent some, the rest actually didn't belong to him at all.
From beginning to end, Guo Jing is a tragedy, he has been busy for so many years, all of which are making wedding dresses for her.
These properties are all controlled by the Sun family, which is another secret that Chun Niang came to tell him today.
Ruan Yuxia is probably a spy sent by Chunniang to Fang Junhe's side, and the usual trick of the Teaching Workshop Division, the beauty trick.
I just don't know if I have lost my wife and broken my soldiers, although Fang Junhe is not good at force, but his brain is by no means an ordinary person, I am afraid that Ruan Yuxia's identity has already been discovered.
Then he and Ruan Yuxia are acting on the spot.
"Fang Junhe still has a lover......"
"Master Meng is talking about that drama, she is no longer alive, she was strangled by Fang Junhe, and her body was buried under the tree in the courtyard of his house on South Street." Chun Niang said.
"Why, is the identity of this actor related to you?"
"It doesn't matter, this scene should have discovered some of his secrets before he was killed." Chun Niang said.
Is it true that the Sun family can't move?
Meng Yan's fists couldn't help but clench tightly, I'm afraid that he really can't move now, a Wang Zhen will be difficult to deal with, if he joins forces with Empress Sun, even if he ties up the brocade guard, he may not be able to help the other party.
"Chun Niang, your story is very exciting, if there is nothing else, please go back." Meng Yan served tea and sent it to the guest.
"Lord Meng, Princess Minghui must not go back with you, not only is she in danger, but you will also be in danger."
"What do you mean?" Meng Yan's brows furrowed, and some were very displeased.
"Once her identity is revealed, what will happen, adults should know, since that day Chi knows that someone is in your hands, he will definitely hold on to it." Chun Niang said.
"Can he still chase him to the capital?"
"If the matter of tribute cannot be discussed in Datong, he can go to the capital and even ask to see the emperor."
"If something happens on the road, it's hard to say."
Chunniang gasped, and said in her heart, you really dare to do it, if Chi dies in Daming that day, Wara will definitely have to fight with Daming. (To be continued......)
