Chapter 26: The Past

"I'm also idle inside and out, my sister will tell the palace about the anecdotes of this Weiyang City, so as to relieve the boredom of the palace." Yue Ningxi looked at Lin Zhaoxue with interest, anyway, you said that you came to gossip with the palace, so naturally you have to take advantage of it, anyway, she is also very boring.

Eh, Lin Zhaoxue choked for a moment, did Ningxi really treat her as a relief for her this month? She's coming to see her ninth brother.

But what can she do, the ninth brother is not here, not to mention that Yue Ningxi is the crown princess, when she came at that time, she said that she wanted to gossip with her.

"What does my sister want to hear?" Lin Zhaoxue asked rhetorically.

"Well, let's talk about the queen mother and Concubine Ying." Yue Ningxi leaned back in her chair and said with a light smile, a little deaf.

Lin Zhaoxue glanced at Yue Ningxi deeply and said, "Sister really wants to listen?" ”

"Hmm."

Lin Zhaoxue wanted to say nothing, and finally said slowly:

Today's emperor Feng Tianxi, who was still the third prince back then, was both civil and military, talented, gentle, sympathetic to the people, and had a very high prestige in the hearts of the people, even surpassing the prince Feng Tianci at that time. At that time, Gu Mengying was the current Ying Guifei, the most beautiful woman in Weiyang City, and the daughter of Gu Xun, the head of the household, and the suitors flocked to her, among which naturally there were Feng Tianxi and Feng Tianci.

The arrogant Gu Mengying naturally wanted to marry into the royal family as the hostess of the harem, so she walked between Feng Tianci and Feng Tianxi with ease, because Feng Tianci at that time could be described as famous, but Feng Tianxi was really nameless.

And today's queen mother, Xue Ruyi, is the only daughter of Xue Jing, the general of Zhenxi. At that time, the general of Zhenxi had 500,000 soldiers and horses, and his power was strong, if he stomped his feet in Fenglan Country, the ground would also shake three times, which was really feared by the royal family at that time, but it also made the princes red. If anyone can have this Zhenxi General's Mansion as a backer, then the hope of winning the heir will naturally increase greatly.

But at that time, Xue Ruyi was a notoriously unpleasant woman in Quanweiyang City.

This is not pleasing, and naturally there is a reason: it is said that Xue respects this person, is strong and decisive, uses soldiers like a god, and has been stationed in the frontier for many years when he was young, so he naturally married Qin Lan, the daughter of the frontier city guard.

Once Xue Jing led troops to fight with Fenglan's vassal Xiliang, and fell into the trap of the enemy, Qin Lan was in production at that time, and heard that this matter moved the fetal gas, resulting in dystocia, and finally only kept the newborn daughter, which is the current queen, Qin Lan lost too much blood, and finally couldn't wait for Xue Jing, who came back from the bloody battle, to see him for the last time.

After Qin Lan died, Xue Jing was drunk and dreamed of death all day long, and he didn't even look at his newborn daughter a few times.

In the end, it was the old lady of the Xue family, Xue Jing's mother rushed to the frontier, woke Xue Jing up with a scolding, and brought the newborn Xue Ruyi back to Weiyang City.

Xue Jing is the only son of the Xue family, and Xue Ruyi is the only child of Xue Jing, the old lady of the Xue family is naturally pampered by Xue Ruyi, and over time, she naturally develops a pampered and arrogant temper, and she has become the most unpleasant woman in Quanweiyang City.

Although it is not pleasant, behind Xue Ruyi is the entire Zhenxi General's Mansion, so she naturally becomes the person the princes want to marry.

When Xue Ruyi was 16 years old, Feng Tianxi changed her previous courtesy to Gu Mengying and turned to Xue Ruyi.

Xue Ruyi, who was naïve and ignorant of the world, fell into Feng Tianxi's tenderness, married him and became his princess.

At that time, Gu Mengying had no choice but to marry Feng Tianci.

But the day before Feng Tianci and Gu Mengying got married, the emperor died of illness, and naturally, the marriage date between Feng Tianci and Gu Mengying was postponed to three years later.

Feng Tianxi ascended the throne as the emperor by virtue of the forces behind him and the voice of the people.

In March of the second year of Xiyuan, that is, more than two years after Feng Tianxi and Xue Ruyi got married, Xue Ruyi did not come out, and she did not conceive a son and a half daughter after taking decoction and medicine, so the royal family held a family banquet at this time and ordered the ministers to bring their daughters to participate, called the family banquet, which was actually a draft for the emperor.

And on the night of the dinner, for some reason, the emperor drank a little more, and he was inexplicably entangled with Gu Mengying, and was seen by everyone, so the emperor canonized Gu Mengying as Concubine Ying despite the opposition of the ministers that night.

As a result, the marriage between Gu Mengying and Feng Tianci came to naught, and they lost the throne and their beloved wife, and this successive blows made Feng Tianci fall ill in bed, but after a few months, he died.

On the day of the family banquet, the emperor canonized the daughters of Gu Mengying and several other ministers, which made the queen even more snubbed.

At that time, the queen was struggling, and the loss was that the Zhenxi General's Mansion was behind her, so she barely retained the queen's phoenix crown.
