Volume 5: The Fire Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix Chapter 399 Old Things About Yu Zhaoyi
"Dad, I want to ask something, can you tell me the truth?" Shangguan Jingyu spoke.
Shangguan Feng thought for a while, then nodded, "Want to know what happened to Yu Zhaoyi back then?" ”
"Daddy?" Shangguan Jingyu pursed his lips.
"You are his wife, and you should know his details." Shangguan Feng sighed lightly, "Yu Zhaoyi's maiden name is Yu Jin, she is an extremely beautiful woman, and my father has met a few times back then. But it's a pity that she was fell in love with two men who shouldn't be loved. Otherwise, with her appearance and talent, she will definitely be able to live happily if she marries an ordinary family. ”
"Yu Zhaoyi was born as the eleventh prince. Milk. The mother's daughter grew up with Xiao Zan, the eleventh prince, since she was a child. The two are in love, bamboo horses and green plums. ”
Later, when it came to the age of talking about marriage, the first emperor gave marriage and gave Yu Zhaoyi to the eleventh prince as a side concubine. Because Yu Zhaoyi's status is humble, and the eleventh prince is the most valued son of the first emperor, it is already a very tolerant thing to be given as a side concubine. ”
"With the identity of the eleventh prince at that time, marrying an official woman is a good match. And after the eleventh prince accepted Yu Zhaoyi, he had no intention of marrying a wife, so in the entire eleventh prince's mansion, only Yu Zhaoyi, a side concubine, was in charge. There is no main concubine, and the side concubine is respected. ”
Shangguan Jingyu frowned, "Already?" ”
Shangguan Feng nodded, "It is rumored from the outside world that the marriage ceremony was not performed, but it was just for the sake of royal face!" ”
"Then why did she marry the current emperor?" Shangguan Jingyu was puzzled.
"At that time, the current saint was not the emperor, but the seventh prince of Dashuo. The friendship between brothers is true and false, and it is common to go to the door. When I saw him that day, the Seven Princes fell in love. The so-called fair lady, the gentleman is good. What's more, it's just a side concubine, not a concubine. It is sometimes common for brothers to give away women. The concubine room, if you recruit it, you will come and go! Shangguan Feng sighed lightly.
"It's just that the Seventh Prince doesn't know how important Yu Zhaoyi is to the Eleventh Prince. Seeing the thoughts of the Seventh Prince, the Eleventh Prince issued an eviction order, and never allowed the Seventh Prince to see Yu Zhaoyi again. ”
But the more things this person can't get, the more he wants to get them. The Seven Princes racked their brains to get her, and kept stumbling in the dark. He knew that the first emperor loved Lao Eleven, so when the first emperor was seriously ill, he united with his civil and military officials to master the military power of the imperial court. ”
Not only that, when the first emperor was seriously ill, the seventh prince threatened each other with force, and finally the brother and sister-in-law broke up the eleventh prince and Yu Zhaoyi. Poor Yu Zhaoyi committed suicide several times without success, and finally became the side concubine of the seventh prince for the eleventh prince. ”
"The first emperor was dying, and he was not willing to pass the throne to the seventh prince at all. The soldiers of the Seven Princes made a dangerous move, raised troops to rebel, and sent troops to surround the entire palace. When he was waiting to come out, the news of the death of the first emperor came out. ”
"So, everyone said that the emperor's throne was snatched, and killing his father and killing the king was not justified. Because when the first emperor was seriously ill, he once left an edict, but when the seven princes entered, the edict disappeared. ”
So much so that in the edict, who will pass the throne to has become an unsolved mystery in Dashuo after all. Shortly thereafter, the Queen Mother died of illness, and the eldest princess Xiao Lin disappeared. The emperor announced to the public that the eldest princess died violently to cover up the original truth. ”
"At the same time, there is also the dragon and phoenix seal representing the first emperor and the first queen, I heard that this seal controls the 300,000 forbidden troops carefully cultivated by the first emperor. But so far, no one has found any trace of the 300,000 forbidden troops. ”
"The dragon and phoenix seal disappeared, and the emperor's head was like a sharp blade hanging over his head, which could fall down at any time and take his life. Therefore, he kept killing, and would rather kill by mistake than let go. Because he was also afraid, afraid that one day, someone would lead troops against him. ”
Shangguan Jingyu sneered, "That's also retribution." ”
Shangguan Feng took a deep breath, "If you kill too much, there will be retribution after all." ”
"Since the emperor likes Yu Zhaoyi so much, why is she just a Zhaoyi after her death? Not even a concubine? If you like it so much, shouldn't it have been a concubine a long time ago? Shangguan Jingyu frowned.
"Her temperament is too strong and she refuses to accept the canonization, so she has always been a Jieyu. A person who is alone and does not communicate with anyone in the harem. There are so many women in the harem, and it is impossible for the emperor to revolve around her all day long, even if he likes it, he is only thinking about it. But she refused to go thousands of miles and didn't give the emperor any chance at all. Shangguan Feng said, "Giving birth in August has caused criticism in the palace." ”
Of course, Shangguan Jingyu understands that the so-called August birth, then Xiao Dongli is basically the son of the eleventh prince, "Has the emperor ever doubted it?" ”
"It stands to reason that as soon as the third prince was born, he should be put to death. But the emperor wanted her to change her mind, so he gave her a chance. It's a pity - in the end, there is still no chance. Shangguan Feng smiled bitterly, "A man's sense of conquest of a woman will be torn apart in the face of reality, and the emperor belongs to the kind of person that others don't think about if I can't." ”
"That incident must be known to many people, that is Yu Zhaoyi's affair with others. Presumably on that day, it should be the eleventh prince Xiao Zan. She protected the eleventh prince, but failed to protect herself, and was finally given death by the emperor in Zhaoyi Palace. Shangguan Feng sighed lightly, "It was the second day of her birthday, and it was also the second day when the emperor asked her to move into Zhaoyi Palace." Before the canonization edict was issued, the poisonous wine was on the door. ”
So many people think that she was canonized as Zhaoyi after her death, but in fact, she is not. The emperor had the intention of helping her to ascend to the throne, but in the end he personally took her life. After her death, her bones were not allowed to be buried in the concubine's mausoleum, and even the royal family tree could not be entered. And the third prince Xiao Dongli was kicked out of the palace and has been fending for himself since then. ”
Shangguan Jingyu smiled bitterly, "Since ancient times, the emperor's grace has been like flowing water, and he is ruthless and ruthless. ”
"An emperor is always an emperor, and patience is limited." Shangguan Feng sighed lightly, "Even if you like it, you can't tolerate betrayal." If a woman's heart is absent, it is useless to keep her body. It is better to kill it, so as not to distract yourself. Since then, the emperor's whole person has changed. There is no special favor in the harem, and - except for Yu Guifei, no concubines have been promoted. ”
Shangguan Feng glanced at Shangguan Jingyu, "Now that you know the emperor, why did you kill Xiao Dongli?" ”
"Dad, as an emperor, do you have to be very deep in the city?" Shangguan Jingyu took a deep breath, "If this thought is used on the people, I don't know how many people will be benefited." But it's all used for their own selfishness. ”
"The third prince is not from a good background, so my father has always opposed you being together at the beginning. Dad has spoiled you for so many years, you can have whatever you want, let you mess around, but Dad doesn't want you to suffer with him. He has nothing, and you have been protected by your father for so many years, how can you endure hardship! Shangguan Feng looked at his daughter, who had been spoiled for half his life, "But you followed him in the end, and you went farther and farther, and you couldn't stop him." ”
"Thank you, Dad." Shangguan Jingyu saluted respectfully.
"There is no need to thank father and daughter, if he dares to bully you in the future, he will go home, and Dad will call the shots for you." Shangguan Feng turned his back, "Go back and rest!" ”
