Chapter 234: The Past Has Turned to Dust
Zheng looked around the room, his eyes flickered for a while, and finally made up his mind, sighed, and said: "Back then, the first king gave Mrs. Zheng to death when he knew that she had been wronged in order to protect the king. ”
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked. Gao Su's eyes turned red in an instant, and he grabbed Zheng: "What did you say?!" ”
Zheng looked at him deeply with a pair of eyes that had begun to age, gently broke his hand, and stroked his young face, tears welling up in his eyes. She sighed softly, "Your Majesty, ......"
Zheng took a few steps back and forth, sat down slowly, and told the story of the year.
Gao Huan relied on the support of his wife Lou's maiden family to rise to power, and Lou gave birth to two sons Gao Cheng and Gao Yang for him, so he didn't have much affection for Lou, but he has always been accommodating and tolerant. On the one hand, she is really grateful to her, and on the other hand, she is also afraid of offending her mother's family and not being good for herself.
Later, he accepted Mrs. Zheng in Xingyang, and he was like a treasure. Mrs. Zheng is beautiful, gentle and virtuous, and thoughtful, and can always comfort Gao Huan when he is troubled, so she has always been favored by Gao Huan, and gave birth to Gao Su a year later.
Gao Su has been beautiful and smart since he was a child, and coupled with his love for the house and Wu, Gao Huan also loves this concubine very much. After a long time, it aroused the dissatisfaction of the Lou family, and often said that Gao Su was naughty and stubborn in front of Gao Huan, saying that Mrs. Zheng misbehaved and took advantage of his outing to fight in Jinyang.
Gao Huan has always doted on Mrs. Zheng and understands her personality, and has never taken Lou's slander to heart, and loves Mrs. Zheng's mother and son as usual.
Until one day, the young Gao Su was suddenly poisoned in the food and almost died. Although he was lucky to be saved, he fell into the root of his illness.
Mrs. Zheng was so sad that she fainted several times, and Gao Huan was also extremely sad. Although he killed the cook and some guards and maidservants afterwards, Gao Huan knew very well in his heart that this was Lou's fear that Gao Huan would favor Zheng's mother and son too much, and would set Gao Su as his heir in the future, threatening the status of her and her two sons. It was his preference that brought ruin to his favorite people.
After some time, someone put in front of him the correspondence between Mrs. Zheng and her childhood friend Ge Heng.
The letter not only contains the lovesickness of Mrs. Zheng and Ge Heng, but also alludes to the fact that Gao Su is the illegitimate son of Mrs. Zheng and Ge Heng.
Gao Huan knew that this time, the Lou family would not give up until Mrs. Zheng's mother and son were killed. He was furious and wanted to use this incident to send Lou out. But it happened that the war in the north broke out again, and at this juncture, he could not be labeled as a favorite concubine and kill his wife, and lose the support of the Lou family.
So he could only say nothing, and unconditionally believed the so-called fornication evidence. He didn't even see Mrs. Zheng, so he sent a glass of poisoned wine over.
He didn't dare to see her. When he heard of her horrific death, he was filled with resentment. He also knew that his young son was full of hatred for him, but there was no better way. A hero who stands tall in the times, there are not many choices in personal matters. Countless midnight dreams, he dreamed of Mrs. Zheng crying at him.
But he could only sacrifice their mother and son.
Soon after Mrs. Zheng's death, he sent Gao Su to Fenzhou to be raised by the Mei family on the grounds that he hated Mrs. Zheng. One is that Mei is his cronies, and the other is that Fenzhou is a place that Lou can't reach. He only hopes that Gao Su can grow up safely in Fenzhou.
Before leaving, Gao Huan secretly summoned Zheng Xiaoniang, told her everything that happened, and told her to protect Gao Su well.
He has always learned about Gaosu's recent situation from Mei's mouth, and six years ago, he felt that the time had come, so he recalled Gaosu back to Jinyang. In order to avoid the suspicion of the Lou family, he was named King Le'an and sent him to the coast of the East China Sea, where he slowly cultivated his wings.
The heir he wants in his heart has always been Gao Su.
At this point in the story, Zheng sighed heavily: "If it weren't for the fact that the Yubi fiasco made the first king seriously ill, it would be logical for the king to train under his protection for a few more years and replace Gao Cheng." ”
"Lou's ......" Gao Su learned the truth behind his mother and the suffering he endured for the first time.
They killed their mother, excluded themselves, and now they want to hurt Zhenzhen......
Gao Su gritted his teeth, almost crushing them.
"Little lady, why didn't you tell me these things earlier?"
"Your Majesty, Mrs. Zheng died unjustly back then, and it is very pitiful for you to lose your mother at a young age. I know that when Madame Cheng died, she wanted you to avenge her in the future. But you are still so young, I am afraid that you will not be able to hold your breath when you know these things, and go to the Lou family for revenge. If you miss, don't you bury yourself in vain, and fail your mother's sacrifice and your father's years of forbearance? But I didn't expect them to be so mad that they didn't even spare a six-year-old child! ”
The guard Meisheng asked on the side, "Your Majesty, what should we do now?" ”
Gao Su calmed down and said, "As soon as something happens to the palace, the little lady will rush to Jinyang." Presumably, Zhen Zhen has just arrived in Jinyang now. Since Gao Cheng has arrested her, he will definitely come to me again. I'll be waiting for him right here! ”
"Nope." Ran Ying, who had been beside her and had not spoken, said, "I will return to Linji as planned early tomorrow morning." ”
"What?" Everyone looked at Ran Ying.
Ran Ying swept around the crowd and asked Gao Su unhurriedly: "Do you have any cronies in the army?" ”
Gao Su nodded: "Southeast Dao Xingtai, Murong Shaozong." ”
"In this way, we will return to Linji tomorrow as usual, pretending not to know about Gao Cheng's arrest of Zhenzhen. At the same time, he secretly sent someone to contact Murong Shaozong to inform him of what happened in Jinyang, but asked him to stay put. ”
"Are you sure that Gao Cheng will let us go back to Linji?" Meisheng asked urgently.
Ran Ying shook her head: "I'm not sure." But I can be sure that we will not die in Jinyang. Otherwise, Gao Cheng wouldn't have made a big move and went to Linji to kidnap Zhen Zhen-" Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered something, and turned her head to look at Gao Su: "The target of his original plan probably also includes the future Princess Le'an who lives in Zhaowen Courtyard. ”
Gao Su's face turned pale.
Ran Ying continued: "Gao Cheng now thinks that he is sure of victory. If he lets us go back to Linji, he is waiting for Gao Su to come back and beg him; If he stops us at the pavilion...... probably knew that someone had come to Jinyang to ventilate and report the news, preventing Gao Su from looking for help. So...... Can only give it a try. ”
Gao Su was not well when he was sick before he set off, but with the recent funeral and this blow, he fell ill again just too much, his face was pale and he coughed. Fortunately, there was a doctor in the team who came with Linji, who took his pulse, prescribed a prescription with the medicine he brought with him, and decocted the medicine for him to take, and his cough was slightly better.
At the time of the third watch, Gao Cheng really came again.
The team of 100 people was fully armed, and the torches lit up the entire pavilion as if it were daylight.
