Tang Xi propped his elbows on the table, held his chin and sighed softly: "In this way, Prince Luo at that time was also quite innocent. ”

"Because the queen mother has the help of the former queen, the emperor treats her well, so her mother's side has also returned to its former prosperity, and it is precisely because of this that she is ungrateful and selfish."

Xie Cheng took a sip of tea and continued: "Before the queen died of illness, she entrusted her two sons to the queen mother, who was loyal to them, but was lukewarm to her son, and it was precisely because of this that she attracted the resentment of Lord Luo against her. ”

Tang Xi sighed lightly, "Such a mother, if you change me, I can't like it either." ”

"Not long after the former queen died of illness, the former emperor was also sick, and the war began at that time."

He smiled faintly and said: "At that time, the Yuan family, the mother of the Queen Mother, wanted to let Prince Luo ascend the throne, so in the middle of the night, I sent someone to send the poison into the harem and handed it to the Queen Mother, hoping that she could poison His Majesty and King Sangyu, who were still the crown prince at the time, but unfortunately, the Queen Mother did not poison them, and even let the Yuan family who sent the poison in be tied up, and invited the ministers and hundreds of officials to expose the crimes of the Yuan family on the spot. ”

Tang Xi was stunned, "So ruthless? What happened to the Yuan family in the end? ”

Xie Cheng said: "The door is full of beheading." ”

"How much does this Empress Dowager Yuan hate the people of the Yuan family?"

Tang Xi really couldn't figure out what kind of hatred made Empress Dowager Yuan make such a decision.

Xie Cheng said: "It's probably because the ugly face of the Yuan family makes her feel disgusted, or it has something to do with her entering the palace, of course, I also heard that not long after she entered the palace, her sweetheart committed suicide by throwing herself into the river." ”

"Could it be that her sweetheart was killed by the Yuan family?"

"Very likely." Xie Cheng said: "At that time, it is said that before the Empress Dowager Yuan said goodbye to her sweetheart, she gave him some silver tickets and pearl hairpins, and also witnessed him leaving the capital, but somehow, early the next morning, the man was found dead in the moat. ”

Tang Xi frowned, "Or is it that the man lost his lover and couldn't think about it for a while?" ”

"Impossible." Xie Cheng shook his head, "At that time, I heard that although the man and the Empress Dowager Yuan were in love, it was not to the point that she had to do it, and it was said that the man still had a concubine at home, you said, how could such a person commit suicide by throwing himself into the river for a woman?" ”

"In this way, this man's death may really be related to the Yuan family?" She frowned slightly, "But even so, the Yuan family is still the family of the Empress Dowager Yuan, right?" You won't kill your whole family for one man, right? ”

"Of course, there is another possibility." Xie Cheng said: "She wants to cut off Lord Luo's right-hand man." ”

Tang Xi shook his head and sighed secretly, "This Empress Dowager Yuan is really a ruthless person!" ”

No matter what the reason is, being able to put his family to death is really ruthless.

Xie Cheng coughed lightly and said, "I have also heard a speculation, but I don't know if it is true or not, after all, I was not born at that time, but I only heard others mention it later." ”

"What speculation?" Tang Xi asked.

"This rumor is a bit outrageous, but there are traces to follow." He looked at her, as if hesitating to say anything.

"What's wrong? Can't you say? ”

Tang Xi was puzzled, she picked up the teacup, and as soon as she drank it, she heard Xie Cheng say: "No, it's just, it is rumored that the person that Empress Dowager Yuan likes is actually the former queen." ”
