Chapter 299: The Truth
"It started 20 years ago." Fu Jin said slowly, "Emperor Taizu won the world, Yunjing was called the emperor, the eldest son was appointed as the crown prince, the second son was named the king of Qin, and the third son was the king of Jin. More than 20 years have passed, and the three people who were brothers, friends and brothers in the early years finally had disputes because of imperial power. ”
"When Emperor Taizu was fighting for the world, although the three princes were only in their early tens, they also followed all the way to the north and south. Emperor Taizu knew that it was easy to fight the world, but it was difficult to sit in the world, so he invited the great Confucian early to teach the three princes homework. The three princes were all smart, so they knew both government affairs and military affairs. ”
"I thought that with such an outstanding descendant, it would be a matter of time before Daqi would dominate the world. Who knows, the three princes are too good, and they are not willing to be subservient, but they have infighting. In the twenty-seventh year of Yuankang, someone falsely accused the prince, saying that he spit the truth after drinking, claiming that he had been the prince for more than 20 years, and he didn't know when it would end. ”
Emperor Taizu was furious, issued an edict to abolish the crown prince, demoted him to a concubine, and moved to Yizhou. The crown prince defended himself, and then took the princess and the eldest grandson of the emperor to Yizhou. Emperor Taizu was impulsive, but after reading the prince's self-defense, he was woken up by his close ministers, and knew that the prince was wronged, so he ordered someone to take his family back to Beijing. ”
Speaking of this, Fu Jin sighed: "Who knows, on the way back to Beijing, the prince encountered robbers, and the family died cleanly." When the commander of the forbidden army arrived, there was no one left alive. ”
Finding that Yang Shu's expression was a little strange, Mingwei quietly reached over and covered his right hand, which was tightly clenched into a fist under the table.
Feeling her body temperature, Yang Shu's trance-like gaze met her, and the worry in her eyes finally calmed him down.
"And then?" He asked in a hoarse voice.
"That year, I happened to go to Santai Academy to study, and I happened to take that path. When the bandits appeared, I was behind. However, my three-legged cat kung fu, it's okay to beat a few little thieves, where can I compare to the real master next to the prince. Fu Jin laughed self-deprecatingly, "In short, those masters failed to save the prince's family." When I arrived, there were only four living people on the scene. ”
Fu Jin looked at these people around the round table: "The prince who has only one breath left, the second son of the eldest princess who got the news and rushed to the rescue, that is, the second master of the Yang family, and the ......" His gaze fell on Yang Shu, "The eldest grandson, the mother and son, who were in the mood and gave birth to a young son, moved the fetus. ”
Fu Jin paused for a moment to speak, and there was silence in the hut.
After a long time, Xuan Fei said softly: "No wonder it is such a fate, judging from fate, he should have been a dead man a long time ago." ”
Fu Jin continued lightly: "The prince can't see that he can't live, and I don't know if there is any helper behind him. He told us to leave quickly, for the sake of the past feelings, to save the lives of the eldest grandson, mother and son, and to leave him a little blood. At that time, the second master of the Yang family had already been seriously injured, and we took the eldest grandson and the mother and son and reluctantly fled the scene. Fortunately, on the way, I met someone sent by the eldest princess to pick them up, so I brought them back to the capital smoothly. ”
When everyone heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief. Obviously, the people in the story are sitting here, and they are still infected by the tense atmosphere as they listen to the story.
When the news reached the capital, Emperor Taizu was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. Before we found the murderer, we didn't dare to expose the eldest grandson's mother and son to people, so we hid it for a while. At the same time, the capital set off a bloody storm. First, the king of Qin was convicted, and Emperor Taizu personally ordered him to be exiled, and not long after the king of Qin left Beijing, he died on the way to exile. Then King Jin was imprisoned and eventually committed suicide. The three princes who pinned their high hopes on them were scattered in this way, and they were all gone in just a few months. ”
This past can only be said to be a story for these people present. They were too young to know that by the time they knew it, it had become an account in a book, and it was difficult to understand the thrilling content.
At this moment, listening to Fu Jin speak slowly, he knew what kind of history this was for Daqi.
Emperor Taizu has reigned for more than 20 years, and the three princes all know military affairs.
After that, Emperor Taizu issued an edict and canonized King Zhao as the crown prince. I saw that the dust had settled, so I planned to go to Santai Academy. As for the eldest grandson's mother and son, it was handed over to the eldest princess. According to my thoughts, King Qin and King Jin are no longer there, and their mother and son are safe. Since ancient times, there have been imperial grandchildren, but there is no such thing as the great-grandson of the imperial concubine, and King Zhao does not have to hurt their mother and son. ”
When Jiang Wenfeng heard this, he nodded in agreement.
No matter how justifiable the original crown prince was, since Emperor Taizu had issued an edict to canonize the new crown prince, he was orthodox. There are those who love their grandsons and are crowned emperors' grandsons, but there are no ones who love their great-grandchildren. In fact, the father-to-son is the proper bloodline, even the ancestors and grandchildren, are not so justifiable.
"However, I soon heard that the second master of the Yang family died of injuries due to falling from a horse, and not long after, the second lady gave birth to a posthumous child and died of a postpartum hemorrhage. As for the eldest grandson, there has been no news. In the blink of an eye, Emperor Taizu lost his third son and lingered on the sickbed, and he went not long after. In the grief of the whole country, King Zhao ascended the throne as the emperor, which is for the present. ”
At this point in the story, it is almost over, but there are still a few key doubts that have not been answered.
Jiang Wenfeng asked: "Sir, where did the eldest concubine mother and son go?" ”
"I was also very confused about this question back then, and sent a message to ask the eldest princess, but the eldest princess told me that there are no more mothers and sons in the world, and asked me to forget their existence. However, I'm not stupid, I heard that the new emperor made Pei's daughter a concubine, what else don't I understand? ”
Pei's descendants only have two daughters, one daughter is married to the eldest grandson of the emperor, and the other daughter is the second daughter-in-law of the eldest princess, and one dies, so there is only one left.
And that child, what identity is safer than the eldest princess's grandson?
Speaking of this, Yang Shu spoke for the first time: "Sir, I'm so sure, the child born by my mother is gone?" ”
The mother he is talking about here refers to the second lady of the Yang family.
Fu Jin said with a smile: "I haven't set foot in the capital for 20 years, I don't know the inside story, there is indeed this possibility." However, when I saw you, I knew that the second lady should have died of both mother and son. ”
He looked at Yang Shu: "Your appearance completely combines the characteristics of your father and mother. It's just that after a long time, not many people remember the appearance of the emperor's eldest grandson. ”
Yang Shu remembered the wizard, did he recognize the emperor's eldest grandson back then, so he opened his mouth to shout out his identity? So Pei Guifei was scared like that.
So, that one knows, too?
He had mixed feelings in his heart.
So, for the past three years, he has always known who he is, but watched him mistakenly think that he is his illegitimate child?
What a ridiculous truth, so how can he deal with himself?
