Chapter 240: Duplicity

She didn't forget that Emperor Qingren wanted to deal with Mingyue's affairs without asking.

Ming Yue looked at the worry in her eyes, and suddenly sat down on the edge of the bed: "Are you worried about me?" ”

Xia Qingtong: ......

"Who, who's worried about you." This sentence is much more unreliable than the one just now: "I just can't get used to it." ”

Ming Yue looked at the duplicitous woman in front of him, and his eyes became softer and softer.

"Why do you look at me like that, I said, I just can't get used to it. It's not because you-"

The voice behind was much quieter, Xia Qingtong felt that he was not confident enough, and changed the topic: "That's right." Yesterday, I saw why Concubine Xian and Concubine De seemed to be pinched? Do they have a grudge? ”

Ming Yue looked at her with a smile and changed the topic, but did not push further.

The coming day is long, and he is not in a hurry.

"Concubine De and Concubine Xian are indeed not dealing with each other. In the early years, Concubine De was pregnant later, and Concubine Xian was pregnant first. But because when she was pregnant, Concubine De and Concubine Xian had an impulse, and they were born prematurely. Concubine De's son Ming Heng was born in less than August. Because of premature birth, my health has been bad. I'm still on medication. It's strange that Concubine De and Concubine Xian can deal with it. ”

Xia Qingtong thought of the third prince Ming Heng he saw at the banquet, as if he was really it, but his face was a little paler than ordinary people. People also have to lose a lot of weight.

"No wonder."

Concubine Xian got pregnant first, but gave birth to the fourth prince, and Concubine De became pregnant later but gave birth to the third prince. In addition, Ming Heng is not in good health, so the two of them will pinch if they are fine. Emperor Qingren knew the reason, knew that Concubine De was angry, and knew that Concubine Xian's family was powerful. Simply turn a blind eye.

Xia Qingtong sighed after listening to the gossip of Gong Yu. I thought of the palace fights I had seen before, as well as some historical documents.

"Look, having more women is trouble."

Ming Yue raised his eyebrows, and suddenly leaned closer to look at her: "So, are you hinting at something?" ”

Xia Qingtong: ......

I don't, don't talk nonsense.

"Behind Queen Yin is the Yin family, and behind Concubine Xian is the Dong family. The other major families did not stand in line, but waited and watched. I think this should be the reason why the Yin family wants to move the salt mine. ”

Xia Qingtong listened to Ming Yue's analysis, and suddenly spoke: "What about you?" ”

"Huh?"

"Your motherβ€”" Xia Qingtong didn't say anything later. She remembered something.

In fact, the Dongzhao Dynasty existed for a long time in history, but many materials were not seen in later generations.

Except for the fact that Ming Yue is a tyrant, with some scattered fragments. Many precious historical materials have disappeared.

This is also the reason why later generations have always felt that Dongzhao Kingdom is very mysterious.

However, there are historical records. After Ming Yue ascended the throne, he once gave his biological mother Bai the title of Empress Dowager of Filial Piety. After that, she was crowned as the Empress Dowager of filial piety, benevolence, and virtue.

The two posthumous seals are enough to show that in Ming Yue's heart, his biological mother's status is quite weighty.

However, in historical materials, there is no more record of this queen surnamed Bai.

The most important point is –

Xia Qingtong looked at Ming Yue, and seemed to have remembered it at this time.

In the later period of Ming Yue's reign, because of cruelty, violence, and non-benevolence, the princes from all walks of life rose up to fight. In the end, he was burned to death in his newly built palace.

It is rumored that the palace is called Feixian Pavilion. It was built by Ming Yue for the woman he loved.

However, the palace was accompanied by Ming Yue, and with the information that had recorded the documents of the Eastern Zhao Dynasty, they were all burned.

Xia Qingtong's heart suddenly trembled. She raised her hand to hold the position of her heart, looked at Ming Yue under the swaying candle flame, and suddenly didn't want to believe it.

Is such a handsome and unparalleled person really such a miserable end in the end?
