In the summer of the 36th year of the first emperor, he hunted with the Chinese military officials of the dynasty in the Xishan hunting grounds, and the world was peaceful by chasing deer. ”

Since the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, most of them will go to the West Mountain to hunt when they worship the heavens, so as to show the harmony of the monarch and the ministers. At the same time, the emperor will also choose a stag to chase in the west mountain, which at the earliest meant that the emperor chased the world, and later evolved into the meaning of peace in the world.

Xu Chu knew these in his heart, the rules of hunting in the West Mountain were abolished during the time of the first emperor. At that time, coinciding with the floods in the south, the first emperor canceled the hunting trip for many years on the grounds that the country was the greatest reason, until finally this rule was abolished on the grounds of labor and loss of money. So she didn't have any objections to Xiao Qinglang's foreshadowing.

Xiao Qinglang glanced at her deeply, and continued in a deep tone: "However, when the first emperor was chasing the buck, something went wrong. ”

As soon as these words came out, Xu Chu's nerves instantly tensed. She knew that according to a person like Xiao Qinglang, who would never be without a target, she would naturally not say some irrelevant rumors and speculations at this time.

Xiao Qinglang's eyes flashed with struggle and solemnity, and his eyebrows tightened more and more, and after a while, he slowly and heavily took out a few yellowed pieces of paper from his sleeve and handed them to Xu Chu.

Xu Chu took the papers, and saw that the papers had already been yellowed and even a little damaged, although the pen and ink on them could still be seen clearly, but at first glance, they were some years old, so that the folds were a little blurred.

The thin paper can still vaguely smell the smell of medicine, but it is faint but cannot be ignored.

"It's ...... Pulse cut records from Tai Hospital? Xu Chu's eyebrows were suddenly stunned, and he read in a low voice, "The horse was seriously injured, his lower body was trampled by the horse's hooves, and the roots of his legs and his right calf were broken...... It hurts the root cause and is inhumane...... When taking oysters, seeds, rehmannia rehmannia, dogwood and peony peel and other medicines, combined with rice wine into the medicine to regulate ......"

Most of the next few pulse records are similar records, only the ingredients of the medicine will be changed somewhat. But no matter which one is on the square, the effect is to repair the male and the root.

"Yang Feng is damaged, weak and weak, and has been cured for a long time with little effect...... However, when we visited the doctor today, Sun Yuanzheng and I found that the emperor was in good health, and the injury of Yang Feng was intact, with no signs of injury, and even the scar on his leg no longer existed...... It's unbelievable......"

Until the last pulse case record, in the forty-fourth year of Xuanwen, the day was just a few days before the draft in the palace that year.

Next, the pen and ink hastily recorded the ins and outs of the whole thing. It is not so much a record of pulse diagnosis, but a suicide note from the imperial doctor or the imperial doctor at that time.

From the beginning of the 36th year of Xuanwen, it was explained that the emperor was inhumane because he fell off his horse and was trampled, and there was no improvement in the 44th year of Xuanwen, which then made many ministers in the court suspicious, and the vein of King Su, who was far away in the fiefdom of Jinling, was also ready to move......

Before the 44th draft of the first emperor, he and Sun Yuan were called to check the pulse again, and found that the emperor, who had been plagued by physical disabilities, suddenly had a red face and a strong body, and he did not shy away from being checked by them.

He was surprised, and asked the emperor carefully with Imperial Physician Sun, but learned that the emperor had obtained the elixir and regained his former glory.

Then, less than two months later, there was news in the palace that Concubine Shuniang was pregnant with a dragon fetus. All of a sudden, the rumors inside and outside the government and the opposition that the former emperor was inhumane were self-defeating.

However, the theory of ghosts and gods is not worth mentioning, death cannot be resurrected, broken heads cannot be reborn, and broken yang cannot be reunited. How can the disease of the lack of surgery be cured by a pill in vain? Royal Xinmi, my life will be closed! ”

All the records came to an abrupt end here, but the news revealed inside was enough to make Xu Chu chill and frightened. In her heart, there were already stormy waves at this time, and the shock in her heart completely turned into deep distress and pity for Xiao Qinglang.

How calm and breezy Xiao Qinglang looks now, it proves what he felt in his heart when he first learned about it. At that time, because he had not been implicated in these later incidents, and there was no secret passage, perhaps he would not have explored the inside story.

However, when they uncovered a series of secrets in their investigation, he must have guessed what had happened. It can even be said that he should guess before himself what the meaning behind these papers is.

At the beginning, they delved into this matter just to clear their grievances for Concubine Xian. Unexpectedly, after tracking down all the way, this series of interlocking cases would involve such a big shocking conspiracy.

If the tomb of the British Duke Xiao Heng is really someone else's bones, or an empty grave...... What they are going to expose is not only the wrongs of the harem concubines, but also Xiao Qinglang's life experience, which is very likely to be a scandal for the entire royal family.

No, it's not just a scandal, maybe ...... Maybe something else......

A thought exploded from Xu Chu's mind, buzzing her head.

She exhaled a breath of turbid breath with difficulty, looked at Xiao Qinglang in a bit of dazed and called, "Lord Wang...... Dare to ask the prince if he knows, as the son of a concubine, how did King Su have the ability to compete with Emperor Chengzong for the throne? ”

It is necessary to know that although Emperor Chengzong is not an emperor of the ages, he can also be regarded as a king of benevolence and sainthood. When he was the crown prince, he had an excellent reputation among the people, being kind and benevolent and never showing favoritism. Even, the Holy Grandfather once praised him, and his benevolent demeanor was exemplary in the East Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

And King Su's lineage, because he has been pampered since he was a child, has a perverse temperament and is competitive, and often does things that bully the weak.

This point, no matter where the storyteller is, he will be emotional.

If this is true, how could Emperor Chengzong, who is the eldest son of the eldest son, be the heir to the throne who is sure to be suppressed by King Su? So much so that when he stayed until the first emperor, King Su was still in trouble.

Xiao Qinglang's face sank slightly, and he said solemnly: "This matter is recorded in the inner court. It is written on the inner court file that when Emperor Chengzong was the crown prince, in addition to the crown princess, that is, the queen of Gongshun, there were more than 20 princes and ladies in the palace. But the prince was busy with official business and didn't care about women, so he didn't do anything for many years after understanding personnel. Even the crown princess did not have good news, on the contrary, King Su, who was more than ten years younger than him, first came out with good news. ”

"Emperor Chengzong, who is over 30 years old, as the crown prince, has been married for many years and has not come out. Even the Holy Ancestor gave him official women one after another, but there was no movement. ”

"It's been like this for a long time, and people in the know don't talk about it. At that time, all kinds of rumors were spreading, and some people said that the prince had done something that was selfish and detrimental to morality, and he was not worthy of being the prince, so God did not give him an heir. Some people also say that it is probably because the prince has a dark disease and is unable to have children. The officials who are loyal to the emperor and the prince, and some Confucians who advocate the elder system, say that the prince is worried about the country and the people and attaches too much importance to state affairs and misses the matter of the heir. ”

"But either way, it's not a good thing for the prince. Moreover, with the passage of time, the first two rumors became more and more widespread, and finally even became a conversation between the people. ”

With these incidents, some officials who were suppressed by the prince's lineage, as well as people who had a relationship with Queen Su's family, began to have two hearts, and secretly pondered a joint letter asking the emperor to send the holy hand of the imperial hospital to check whether the prince had any secret illness. There are even more radical people, who have repeatedly mentioned that they want the Holy Grandfather to set up another prince, and ensure that the Great Zhou Dynasty will be passed down from generation to generation. ”

"It was in this situation that King Su had the confidence to argue with Emperor Chengzong, who was the crown prince at that time, because of the fact that the princess gave birth to heirs one after another."

When he said this, Xiao Qinglang rubbed his forehead, and then said: "Just when the battle between the two was heating up, the news that the crown princess was pregnant suddenly came out of the East Palace. This temporarily stabilized the position of the prince, but at that time, King Su already had his own power, which was enough to fight against the prince. ”

"The good news is that less than two months later, the crown princess was born with an official woman. The old Holy Ancestor was furious, and personally went to the inner court to interrogate the official woman, and finally traced it down to King Su. It turned out that the official woman was a fine work cultivated by King Su in his early years, and she was originally sent to the palace to inquire about the news of the Holy Grandfather, but she was unexpectedly given to the prince by the Holy Grandfather. And the reason why she assassinated the crown princess was only because King Su was worried that the crown princess would give birth to the crown prince and stabilize the position of the crown prince. ”

After learning the inside story, the Holy Grandfather was not only thunderous and angry, but also gave birth to the crisis of being provoked. In addition, the Marquis of Xiangyang was still in power at that time, and he was not only the minister of the Holy Grandfather, but also a brother who was born and died with the Holy Grandfather on the battlefield. These two things combined, the Holy Ancestor naturally couldn't spare King Su. ”

"It's just that King Su and the crown prince are the only adult children of the Holy Grandfather, so even if he is angry, he will not be wiped out. At that time, the Holy Grandfather just removed King Su's position in Beijing and let him think about it behind closed doors. Unexpectedly, the Holy Grandfather's slightest mercy almost caused a catastrophe. ”

Later, when the Holy Grandfather was seriously ill, the crown prince was in charge of the country, and at the same time, the crown princess and the old British duchess were pregnant at the same time, and the two sisters were rumored to be a good story...... At that time, the Holy Grandfather was overjoyed when he heard the good news, and his body was much lighter. It's just that this time the good news made King Su fight the trapped beast. ”

"There is no record in the history books, but there is a brief record of a few words in the file of the Inner Court about the Marquis of Xiangyang. It is recorded that although the Marquis of Xiangyang was hated by the Northern Frontier, how did the prince of the Northern Frontier under the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty bring people to infiltrate? Therefore, the most likely speculation is that King Su wanted to force the palace, but he was afraid of the power of the Marquis of Xiangyang in the army, and then colluded with the people in the north to assassinate him. ”
