Chapter 260: Cursed Again
"You are both royal blood, he is not clean, and you are not clean." Mu Yunlan said coldly.
"Heh, Yun Lan, no matter what I say, you don't believe it, do you? Then let me ask you, did Yue Jingxuan tell you about his mother? The smile on Yue Xiaohan's face carried a hint of indescribability.
"It has nothing to do with you."
"Didn't you say that?" Yue Xiao laughed coldly, "Of course he won't say it, because his mother's identity is not visible!" Back then, after the death of the first queen of the imperial grandfather, there was never a queen again, Yue Jingxuan's mother was a concubine when she first entered the palace, the head of the harem concubines, it can be said that the scenery is unique, her past is not mentioned again under the deliberate cover of the imperial grandfather, if I didn't accidentally flip through a scroll, I couldn't have imagined that Yue Jingxuan's mother was the wife of the prince of Anqing back then! β
Mu Yunlan's heart trembled suddenly, the prince of Anqing had a great reputation at that time, and was known as the undefeated general of the Great Yongguo, and later died in battle, and his princess was rumored to be buried for him.
"Whether Yue Jingxuan is the bloodline of the emperor's grandfather or the bloodline of the prince of Anqing, there is no way to know, his mother is unchaste and unclean, after the death of the prince of Anqing, he seduced the emperor's grandfather and was sealed into the palace, and there are reliable rumors that the reason why the prince of Anqing died in battle is the handwriting of this princess."
"What does this have to do with Uncle Huang?" Mu Yunlan's face was unmoved.
"After Yue Jingxuan's mother concubine was named a concubine, his family grew stronger and stronger, his mother bewitched the emperor in the harem, and his family connected courtiers in the court and the opposition, and secretly wanted to seize the position of the heir of his father, so that's it, they are used to buying people's hearts and putting themselves on a righteous position, which makes people misunderstand that it is the father who seeks power and usurps the throne, you can secretly inquire about it, when Yue Jingxuan's mother bewitched the emperor's grandfather, so that the people of the Dayong Dynasty were bored, if you are now dedicated to helping Yue Jingxuan to seek the throne, After he has no worries, you can see if he will manage the people of the world! β
"Finished? I'll be gone. She believed in her eyes, and when Uncle Huang faced the victims of the disaster in Yunnan, his sad look was definitely not a fake.
"Yun Lan, it doesn't matter if you don't believe what I said, you can investigate it slowly, and there is another important thing to tell you, Yue Jingxuan was named King Ning'an out of Yunnan because of his young age, but his fiancΓ©e is still alive."
"FiancΓ©e?"
"Yes, at the beginning, the emperor's father gave him a marriage, and it was Wei Yin, the pearl of the Wei family, that he would only marry when the emperor became an adult."
Mu Yunlan sneered: "Don't you think this statement is too far-fetched?" When the emperor died, the emperor's uncle was only twelve years old, and although the royal family gave early marriage, there was no such early precedent. β
"If you don't believe it, you can ask Emperor Lin, he has also witnessed this matter."
Mu Yunlan bit her lip slightly, turned around and strode away, this time Yue Xiaohan didn't stop her again.
Back at the Cui Ning Pavilion, Emperor Lin poured a cup of tea and handed it over: "What's the matter, it looks like you're in a bad mood?" β
"Grandfather, do you know that Uncle Huang was engaged to marry at the beginning?"
"The marriage contract, there is indeed such a thing, the first emperor personally gave him the granddaughter Wei Yin of Wei Ge Lao to be the princess, but later the Wei family was implicated and beheaded all over the house, that Wei Yin is also dead, and the person is gone, so this marriage will naturally not be counted. You suddenly asked this, what did the third prince say? β
"It's not a big deal, it's just about the origin of the imperial uncle and concubine."
Lin Zi'an smiled slightly: "Many things may not be true when you see them, let alone what you have heard, if you want to know the truth, after you leave, just ask Yue Jingxuan directly." β
Mu Yunlan nodded: "Well, I understand, grandpa, it's just, how should we leave?" β
Lin Zi'an gently moved the teacup and quickly wrote down the word ten days.
On the 10th, the day when Yue Xiaohan ascended the throne and became emperor?
The change of the throne itself did not attract much attention from the people, but after Yue Xiaohan ordered that after he ascended the throne, the news of distributing grain seeds and helping the people resume farming came out, and the atmosphere in the imperial capital suddenly became lively, and many people poured into the streets, looking forward to the early arrival of the day of accession to the throne.
On March 26, the weather was sunny and everything was fine.
In the palace, Yue Xiaohan changed into a dragon robe under the service of the palace people, and there was no smile on his handsome face, which made his whole person a little more majestic, the bright yellow dragon robe was shining, and the five-clawed golden dragon meandered upward, showing the supreme imperial majesty.
He buckled the coiling dragon belt and gently straightened the emperor's crown: "Invite Emperor Lin and the county lord of Leping to watch the ceremony, and don't forget to send the palace clothes I have prepared over for the county lord to wear." β
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhaoqing bowed and slowly withdrew, and only after exiting the door did he stand up straight and walk quickly to the Cuining Pavilion.
Mu Yunlan looked at the row of maids in front of her, her eyes were cold, and she spoke after a while: "You all step down, I will change my clothes by myself." β
"Yes, County Lord." The palace ladies breathed a sigh of relief, if the county lord was unwilling to change his clothes, their lives would be over.
Mu Yunlan took a deep breath, suppressed the irritability in her heart, picked up the palace dress embroidered with phoenix patterns, and was about to change into it, when her eyes suddenly moved, she reached out and touched the skirt, and in the jewel nailed to the skirt, she felt a red bead the size of a mung bean, and after pinching it hard, she took out the note in it: The time has come......
She put the note in the teacup and melted it, then carefully examined her clothes, and after taking off the three red beads from the dress again, she put on the dress casually, and felt much better.
Lin Zi'an and Lin Ye had also been asked to change their clothes, and when they came to the door of Caicui Ning Pavilion, they saw a large number of Praetorian Guards waiting.
Zhaoqing was holding a tray, three teas were placed on the tray, and when he saw Mu Yunlan and the three of them, he hurriedly saluted respectfully: "The slave has seen the county lord, the emperor, and the second young master, the emperor is sympathetic, saying that the enthronement ceremony is complicated, and he is afraid that the three of them will feel thirsty, so he asked the slave to prepare fragrant tea and invite the three of them to drink." β
Lin Ye was furious, what was he afraid that they would be thirsty, I was afraid that they would cause trouble at the enthronement ceremony, so he did something in the tea!
Mu Yunlan picked up the teacup and sniffed it gently, and her eyes flashed full of sarcasm: "I actually put vine grass in the tea, and Yue Xiaohan can be regarded as having a lot of thought." β
Zhaoqing had been respectfully holding the tray, and when he heard Mu Yunlan's words, his head lowered a little lowered: "It's not too early, please have tea with the county lord and the emperor." β
Lin Zi'an's face was still the same, and he took a sip of the teacup: "It's a pity that the high-grade golden needle is white." β
Mu Yunlan didn't care, and directly raised her head and drank it. After Lin Ye finished drinking, he directly smashed the teacup on the ground.
Zhaoqing waved his hand and beckoned the carriage and drove Mu Yunlan and the others to the altar.
The emperor ascended the throne, to worship the heaven and earth first, and then worship the ancestors, and finally to hold the enthronement ceremony, the last time the emperor sacrificed to the sky, after the altar collapsed, let the Qin Tianjian recalculate, changed the position of the altar. The newly built altar is on the west side of the center of the city, the area is much larger than the original, the dragon jade pillar, the mountain and river reliefs, each place is built beautifully, majestic and incomparable.
After knowing that Yue Xiaohan was going to open a warehouse to distribute grain, the people poured into the streets, bowing along the way, and the momentum shook the sky for a while. They don't care about the change of the throne, no matter who is in power, as long as they can live a peaceful life, they are all supportive.
Mu Yunlan sat in the chariot, looking at both sides of the street through the gap in the car curtain, and when she passed by the Weiguo Mansion, a trace of pain flashed in her eyes, the Guogong Mansion did not look much different from the past, and this mansion was not rewarded again, and the plaque on the door was still hanging, but the Zhu Gate was closed, and it was already a matter of fact.
Just when she was stunned, she only felt that the light flashed in front of her, and a pill shot into the carriage through the gap in the curtain, she quickly reached out and took it, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes: it turned out to be a first-class antidote pill, and it was made by her before and left it for the imperial uncle. Could it be that Uncle Huang also came to the imperial capital?
Thinking of this possibility, his heart jumped suddenly, and he hurriedly went to look in the crowd, but he didn't find a familiar figure, could it be that the people left by the imperial uncle in Kyoto secretly helped?
In the jade beads inlaid in the skirt of the clothes before, I have found red beads that can avoid poison, this antidote pill is not used for the time being, and it can be carefully put away in case of emergency.
The majestic drum beat one hundred and twenty times, and the sound vibrated as if it could shatter people's hearts.
Hundreds of civil and military officials stood on both sides of the altar, dressed in official uniforms, shining with pearls, and walked up to the altar with Yue Xiaohan, bowing down and bowing, looking respectful.
Yue Xiaohan's eyes fell on Mu Yunlan accurately, with expectation in his eyes: After today, no one will be able to stop him, he will marry Mu Yunlan as his wife and dissolve this knot.
The breeze blew, the tip of Mu Yunlan's nose moved slightly, and she smelled a faint smell, which was very familiar but couldn't remember what it was. She was about to remind Emperor Lin and Lin Ye beside her when she heard an exclamation.
"Fire! It's on fire! β
A flame burned from the edge of the altar, and then quickly rushed along the altar towards Yue Xiaohan in the center.
The officials kneeling on both sides of the altar were implicated, their official uniforms were burned, and they were so frightened that they couldn't possess their bodies, some got up and kept slapping the flames on their bodies with their sleeves, and some rolled directly on the spot to extinguish the fire on their bodies.
The Praetorian Guards hurriedly rushed to the altar, wanting to extinguish the fire and protect Yue Xiaohan's safety, but as soon as they approached the altar, they found that the fire on their bodies flashed, and the armor spontaneously combusted without fire.
"What's going on?"
"Is it another curse?"
Mu Yunlan came back to her senses, and hurriedly pulled Lin Zi'an and Lin Ye back, she remembered, it was the smell of white phosphorus!
A figure approached quickly from the chaos, and reached out to hold Mu Yunlan: "Yunlan, follow me." β
