Remember [69 Chinese Network] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

Ling Changzhi's understanding of the past was once overturned.

I turned over the river and the sea in my heart, and I wanted to find out.

He hurriedly asked, "Why hasn't anyone mentioned this matter all these years?" Even the Shen family, the in-laws of the East Palace, don't seem to know these inside information? ”

Pingwu Hou sneered, "Of course, the Shen family can't know the real inside story. When all this happened, the entire Shen family was imprisoned, and they were almost dying, and the news was cut off! By the time the Shen family was released, everything had already settled, and His Majesty had issued another gag order, and the whole city was under martial law.

The Shen family was driven out of the capital in a blink of an eye, and the past in-laws were cut off, all they could know was fake news deliberately promoted by Emperor Zhongzong! ”

Ling Changzhi was stunned.

He stared at Pingwuhou, "Why is Uncle so clear about the situation back then?" Could it be that my uncle was at the scene at the time? ”

Pingwuhou nodded, "I was in the army at the time, and I witnessed the death of 'Prince Zhangyi' in the army, and he was killed by several arrows!" The world thinks he is a weak scholar, but they don't know that he is actually a brave man, full of martial arts, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get close. It was the archer in the Northern Army who took his life! ”

After speaking, Pingwuhou exhaled a breath of turbidity.

He rubbed his eyebrows, a little headache, "It's been so many years since this incident, and now that I think about it, I can still feel the feeling of blood rushing that day." What a shocking scene! The soldiers and horses of the world strangled thousands of guards in the East Palace, and used all their strength.

Benhou often wonders, if the 'Prince Zhangyi' did not die and inherited the throne, what would the world be like? I'm not sure otherwise, we, the family, will definitely be brutally suppressed, and I don't want to have the ability to call for wind and rain today! ”

Ling Changzhi only felt that his throat was dry and itchy, and it was very uncomfortable.

He coughed repeatedly and drank a few sips of water to stop the uncomfortable feeling.

He hurriedly asked: "It seems that the lord of Zhuyang doesn't know the inside story of the death of 'Prince Zhangyi'. Around her, there are all old people in the East Palace, how could she not know? ”

Pingwu Hou sneered, "How do you know that the people around her are all old men from the East Palace?" When the rebellion occurred, she was still a child. In the previous decades of court struggle, she didn't know anything. Her future was personally arranged by Emperor Zhongzong. Do you think there are a few real East Palace old men around her? ”

Ling Changzhi opened his mouth and was speechless.

Pingwu Hou said again: "Even if they are all old men in the East Palace, how do you know whether they are the people of Emperor Zhongzong or the people of the 'Prince Zhangyi'?" ”

"Could it be that the three thousand guards of the East Palace were also specially arranged by Emperor Zhongzong?"

"The real guards of the East Palace have already been wiped out in that battle to strangle the 'Prince Zhangyi'! How could it be possible to leave three thousand guards to follow the lord of Zhuyang. The three thousand 'East Palace Guards' left by Emperor Zhongzong to the Lord of Zhuyang, you will never think of their original identities. ”

Ling Changzhi accepted too much information at once, and he was shocked all the time, he really couldn't think of it.

Pingwuhou looked at him like this and smiled very proudly.

"The so-called 'three thousand East Palace guards' are actually veterans of the Northern Army!"

Burst!

Ling Changzhi almost vomited blood.

"It can't be! The Northern Army strangled the guard battalion of the East Palace, and killed the 'Prince Zhangyi', how could they be willing to follow the Lord of Zhuyang? After so many years, I don't believe that no one has said anything? Uncle don't try to coax me! ”

Pingwu Hou sneered, "Is it necessary for Ben Hou to coax you?" Ben Hou said that they were veterans of the Northern Army, but did not say that they participated in the strangulation of the 'Prince Zhangyi'. These veterans of the Northern Army were originally transferred to the forbidden army to protect the imperial tomb. What happened in the capital, they were isolated, and they didn't know at all.

Later, no one knew what Emperor Zhongzong thought, at that time Emperor Zhongzong was too old, and people were confused and capricious when they were old, which was unpredictable. All in all, he ordered this group of old soldiers to fill the East Palace, and they were designated as East Palace guards to protect the only remaining bloodline in the East Palace until death! ”

That's what happened!

Ling Changzhi was a little dizzy.

According to my uncle, only a few people know the truth. Emperor Zhongzong ordered martial law in the capital and issued a gag order, so the truth was not passed out? ”

Pingwuhou nodded, "Do you know how long the martial law was in the capital back then?" Up to half a year! After the death of 'Prince Zhangyi', martial law continued for five or six months. This is enough time to annihilate all evidence and seal all the mouths that should be sealed.

The small people in the capital were locked up in their houses all day, and their time to go out was very limited, and the news could not be disseminated. They don't even know what's going on outside, so how can they get the truth? Courtiers, officials, families, except for those who have errands, no one is allowed to leave the house! Martial law was much stricter back then than it is now! ”

He was quite emotional.

Thinking of the harshness of the past, compared with today's capital, it is really a heaven and an underground. 、

It can only be said that Emperor Zhongzong's methods are too sharp.

An order is given, and tens of thousands of heads are rolling!

Compared with today's saints, the control of the court is many times stronger, and it is also many times more cruel.

Many families suffered greatly from it back then.

There are few families that do not have dead people.

Even if it was the ministers who were most trusted by Emperor Zhongzong back then, the sons and daughters of the family were inevitably beheaded, and there was no place to be reasonable.

Are you afraid of Emperor Zhongzong?

Of course I'm afraid!

Do you hate Emperor Zhongzong?

Naturally, it is also hateful!

I was afraid and hated, and I didn't dare to have the slightest disobedience.

At the level of calculation, the highest is the East Palace!

Emperor Zhongzong could only rely on the eunuchs who served him closely, as well as the harem concubines, to imperceptibly influence, and calculated for decades.

In the court, everyone has to be honest.

When you play tricks, you have to think about whether you can keep your head?

At that time, when I was an official, I was really fighting for my life!

If you don't agree with each other, you will kill your head and rob your family!

Compared with today, Pingwu Hou couldn't help but laugh.

Sure enough, one generation is not as good as the next!

However, this situation is excellent for the courtiers.

Everyone's ideas and talents have a chance to be brought into play.

Ling Changzhi was silent for a long time, and finally asked the question in his heart, "Why did Prince Zhang Yi die?" Is it really because of the rebellion? Did Emperor Zhongzong want him to die, or did someone really conspire against him and designed all this? ”

Pingwu Hou sneered, "In that situation back then, even if someone calculated, they didn't want to influence Emperor Zhongzong's decision. In the final analysis, it was Emperor Zhongzong who wanted the 'Prince Zhangyi' to die! You can't die if you don't die!

After the death of 'Prince Zhangyi', Emperor Zhongzong seemed to regret it very much, but Benhou felt that everything was acting and exculpation. Everyone is dead, whether it is black or white, it is all in the mind of Emperor Zhongzong.

Obviously, Emperor Zhongzong is a person who attaches great importance to face, not only to save face himself, but also to lose the face of the royal family. What could be more foolful than a traitor who calculated the 'Prince Zhangyi' and misled the emperor?

The so-called traitorous villain, in the end, arrested one hundred and eight eunuchs and courtiers, and none of the key people were fine. It's not fooling, what is it?

Everyone is dead, and there is only one young Zhuyang County Lord left, and everything can be put down. You have to know, without the will of Emperor Zhongzong, who would dare to kill tens of thousands of people in the East Palace? ”

The truth is always cruel and bloody!

Ling Changzhi was very puzzled, "For so many years, hasn't the Lord of Zhuyang ever suspected what happened back then?" Didn't think to pursue it? ”

Pingwuhou sneered, "Who is she looking for?" The real culprit is Emperor Zhongzong. Emperor Zhongzong has been dead for 800 years, and almost all the people who knew about it back then are dead. If you want to pursue it, you can't find anyone. ”

"Before, my uncle mentioned that Hou Yan of Guangning was guarding the war? Could it be that he also knows the inside story? ”

Pingwuhou stroked his beard and smiled.

Then, he said: "Back then, Yan Shouzhan was not in the capital!" However, there are some inside things he should know. The brutality of the court struggle, he must have been stimulated!

However, Emperor Xuanzong Yuanping gave him a chance to object, and gave him the hot potato Zhuyang County Lord to marry. It is estimated that when the marriage was given, he was afraid half to death! If he is not careful, the entire family may be destroyed, do you think he can not be afraid? ”

Ling Changzhi didn't want to laugh at Yan Shouzhan.

Back then, that situation, that harsh situation, everyone would be afraid!

The daughter of 'Prince Zhangyi', a proper hot potato!

Yan Shouzhan caught this hot potato, and he didn't know how much resentment he had in his heart!

All I can say is......

Time is also fate!

Ling Changzhi let out a long breath.

He looked at his uncle and asked solemnly, "What does my uncle want to do when he enters the capital this time?" ”

Pingwuhou laughed, "Of course you have to reminisce about the past!" Find an old friend to chat about! In addition, Benhou also has to personally observe His Majesty, and he can have some skills of Emperor Zhongzong. ”

"Uncle, don't mess around! The clan relatives and some courtiers are already suspicious of you, and they are quite guarded. If you mess around, I'm afraid there will be right and wrong! ”

Pingwu Hou said with a smile: "Ben Hou is a person of right and wrong, so why be afraid of right and wrong!" Changzhi, Ben Hou has always had high hopes for you! It's just that you have to be a little more daring. Family reputation is important, but family is equally important! ”

Ling Changzhi said, "Thank you uncle for your teachings!" All I know is that the Tao is not the same! ”

Pingwu Hou smiled, "Are you accusing Ben Hou?" ”

"Don't dare!"

Pingwuhou waved his hand, not caring.

"Whatever you think, Ben Hou doesn't need your approval. Ben Hou just reminds you, don't forget my list of supplies, so that the imperial court can prepare it early. In addition, tell the emperor that the Japanese marquis will lead 5,000 troops into the capital to face the saint! I hope you don't scare the emperor! ”

"The Southern Army is not a! Uncle, don't make a mistake! ”

"Don't worry, Ben Hou is not going crazy. The anti-thief has not been solved, everything will be said after the anti-thief is solved! Good nephew, you will stay here in Benhou today, stay for one night, and return to the capital tomorrow. Ben Hou has already ordered someone to prepare a banquet, and several of your cousins have long wanted to meet you! ”

"It's better to be respectful than to obey! Thank you Uncle for your hospitality! ”

"Hahaha......"
