Chapter 352 The Peace of Changing Sons for Others
Shangguan Bo also knew that Zhao Mingzhu had died strangely, but her death was insignificant to him, so he didn't pursue it further. In the name of exorcising evil spirits, I forcibly went to clean up Zhao Mingzhu's hospitalization before her death, and finally found the source of her poisoning, a comb that she often used. Furong begged me not to take the comb, and it was said that the comb was a random gift bought by Shangguan Boming Zongbai on the street, but she regarded it as a treasure. How could the things she used to have my cloud poison on them? I didn't even get a chance to touch these things? I asked Fleur, they didn't seem to know very well, only said that this comb was Zhao Mingzhu's beloved belongings, and no one could touch it except herself, and even the tangled hair on it was cleaned by herself, so there was only one possibility for cloud poison to be stained. β
"Which is possible?" I couldn't catch up with her train of thought.
"She got it herself. She left the object I had sent, quenched it with poison, and smeared it on the comb, which no one could touch but herself. β
I was stunned: "Herself? β
"Yes, outsiders think that Zhao Mingzhu died in childbirth, and Shangguan Bo and Zong Bai suspect that I did it, but only I know that Zhao Mingzhu died by suicide." Yun Qing's expression looked mysterious and abnormal.
Suicide?!
Suicide?!
"Suicide?!" I was so surprised that I almost jumped up, "Why did she kill herself?!" β
"Yes, why did she kill herself? It is precisely because she did not have any reason to commit suicide that no one doubted this. She calculated the amount of poison and the time and frequency of exposure, because she wanted to make sure that her child would be born in sufficient time, and at the same time, she gave up any medical treatment, because she didn't want others to know that she was poisoned, and I think that the imperial doctors sent by the palace might have not diagnosed her illness at all and were sent out by her. But she didn't understand the true mystery of cloud poison at all, so she miscalculated the time and could only order the midwife to destroy the birth to save the child. β
I felt a chill in my heart, how could there be so many things in this that I couldn't understand at all, or was I too stupid to find anything suspicious in it?
How could Zhao Mingzhu, who was good at palace schemes, lose to Yun Qing, who was born as a commoner? This is a doubt, isn't it? I don't know if Song Lingjian has found this?
This is the third time I have encountered something about self-ending, the first time is Ye Xin, the poor mother of Yan Wrong, who quietly ended her life's struggle in the twilight when no one was waiting, for a love that she thought was right but had been wrong for many years. Then it was Li Xue not long ago, she had no love and didn't dare to start again, she just wanted to go with Aunt Lian and Lian Xiao, but she didn't succeed, I believe she will live bravely and start a new life.
This time, it's Zhao Mingzhu.
That woman who has the impression that she is stronger than countless eyebrows in the world, how could she do such a cowardly thing? She once turned her hands into clouds and her hands into rain, what could she not solve?
"Then you mean that the cause of Zhao Mingzhu's death is related to the safety of the Shangguan clan?" Since Yun Qing said that he exchanged the safety of the official clan for Yun Niang's secret, and now he proposed the cause of Zhao Mingzhu's death, then the two must be related.
"Zhao Mingzhu loves his son and is desperate to give birth to a fetus in his womb, how can he not think of suicide so much? Which mother in the world doesn't want to raise her children well, especially Zhao Mingzhu, if she dies, even if the child is born safely, it is impossible to live safely without her protection, she has so many political enemies and defeats in the rebellion, so why did she choose to die so stupidly? Yun Qing spoke slowly and logically, which was different from Yun Niang's gentleness, but with an inexplicable confidence.
I nodded again and again, yes, yes, why?
"But Zhao Mingzhu, the only one who knows the truth, is dead, and all I know is my own speculation. Zhao Mingzhu voluntarily drank to death, and the biggest possibility was that he was threatened by others. β
"Threaten? By whom? Why? β
"A man above ten thousand."
"More than 10,000 people?" I opened my mouth wide, there is only one person above 10,000 people in the world, and that is the current courtier!
"Although Zhao Mingzhu married into the Shangguan Mansion and was stripped of her wings, after all, she once leaned into power, no monarch can tolerate the person who once won the world with him to live in the court peacefully, Zhao Mingzhu herself is an unknown threat, who do you say will want to get rid of her the most?"
I am fighting with my teeth, what does Yunqing mean is that the person who made Zhao Mingzhu commit suicide is the current court?
In order to get Shangguan Bo, Zhao Mingzhu gave up the country and was willing to marry a courtier, but Zhao He knew very well in his heart what kind of power this woman had, she was not happy in Shangguan Mansion, who knows when she suddenly figured it out, regretted giving up the country and re-taking it? Zhao and the country are not easy to take, and they are extremely suspicious, the Shangguan clan is a big family in the world, and they have long been suspected of being the master of high merit, if Zhao Mingzhu is plotting against Shangguan Bo, who dares to guarantee that the world is still owned by the Zhao family? Yun Qing stared at me and said gloomily, "From ancient times to the present, any country is stable on countless dry bones, and politics and power have never been separated. β
Politics and intrigue are things that a country woman like me will never touch in her life.
I hugged my body so that I didn't let myself tremble so obviously, Yun Qing called the court lord by his name, and it seemed that he was quite disdainful of this person: "That is to say, the court lord is also afraid of the Shangguan clan, have you told Xiangye about this matter?" β
Yun Qing sneered: "Talk to him?" He thought that I killed Zhao Mingzhu, and Zhao He was his brother from birth to death, how could he listen to my explanation? And whether it is suicide or murder, Zhao Mingzhu is indeed dead under my cloud poison, why should I set myself on fire and do more? β
"Then you mean, let me tell the Xiangye about this matter, so that they can beware of the current court?"
"I always thought that Zhao He persecuted Zhao Mingzhu and replaced her with self-determination on the condition that the fetus in her womb was born safely. One life for another, Zhao Mingzhu knew that he couldn't escape. But Zhao Mingzhu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, she decided to sacrifice herself for the child in her womb, but she used my cloud poison, so that she can not only use her own death to save the child, but also arouse Shangguan Bo's suspicion of me - Shangguan Bo has suspicion of me, so he will naturally stare at me closer, then I can't do more to murder her child - she is indeed smart, after her death, Shangguan Bo sent the child out of Shangguan Mansion, everyone thought that he didn't like the child and sent him out, only I knew in my heart that he was worried that I would harm the child, I casually used a name to send the child to Shangguan Ji who was idle at home to raise him, Shangguan Ji was the emperor of the two dynasties, even if Zhao Hezhen was so ruthless to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, I am afraid that he would not be able to pass the Shangguan Ji level. β
It seems that Shangguan Bo is not as ruthless as I thought, and sending his eldest son out of the house is not that he hates Zhao Mingzhu, but actually protection in disguise.
"After Zhao Mingzhu died, everything became very calm, there was no strange thing, I am even more sure that it was just Zhao He's means to eliminate dissent, as soon as Zhao Mingzhu died, no one could threaten his country anymore, plus Shangguan Bo did not investigate deeply, and this matter passed silently."
The matter passed silently.
Yun Qing said it so plainly, but I feel so sad, Zhao Mingzhu sacrificed everything for Shangguan Bo, and even used his life to protect the Shangguan clan and the flesh and blood in the abdomen, but she ended up in such a bleak end, I heard that her funeral rites were very simple, no matter how she was in the wind and clouds during her lifetime, she was still a lonely grave after her death.
Yun Qing squinted his eyes and said, "Until the day I died, I didn't know that everything was not as simple as I imagined. β
My heart was furious, and I suddenly realized that I was talking to a dead person.
"I did hate this slut that day, she provoked me to shoot out the cloud needles, but those cloud needles were actually empty needles, which were the empty needles I used to poison Zhao Mingzhu and expel the cloud poison. There are thousands of ways to kill the clouds, and I don't need to use my precious cloud needle at all. β
I was confused, but Yun Niang said that Yun Qing died under the cloud needle she ejaculated, according to her, Yun Qing's death omen is indeed a symptom of Yun poison, is Yun Niang lying to me? What is strange about Yun Qing's death? After all, she was the only one present......
"You said that the cloud needle you shot was an empty needle, Yun Niang said that she didn't have a cloud needle at all, and she pretended to provoke you to shoot a cloud needle, so why did you die on the cloud needle in the end?" I really don't know who to trust anymore.
Yun Qing hooked the corners of his mouth and stared: "Yes, I don't understand, I keep thinking about everything that happened before I died, did I miscalculate and shoot the cloud needle that was not completely empty, or does this slut really have a tenth cloud needle?" It is true that my death was due to cloud poison, but I would rather believe that I did not completely empty the cloud needle by mistake, and I do not want to believe that there is a tenth cloud needle in this world. β
I felt that Yun Qing was very pitiful, and couldn't help asking, "Who does your father hurt a little more, is it really so heavy on you?" Even if Yun Niang really has the tenth cloud needle, you already have nine! β
Back then, Yun Qing was distracted because Yun Dan caught this weakness, why did she still care so much after so many years?
Yun Qing shook his head firmly: "It's different. β
Well, I really can't understand her.
"Then you've been thinking about it for so many years, have you figured it out?" I began to feel that Yun Qing's death was not as simple as I imagined.
"Nine cloud needles, I used three for the cloud poison, but I have always carried the empty needle on my body, although it is an empty needle, but it is still useful, two in the original middle of August 14, one on the mountainside, a total of three. The other three I hid in a safe place, and nine of them were obviously in my hands, and the needles sent out by Yun Dan were indeed fake, but the cloud poison in me was real. Yun Qing half-squinted.
Yun Niang always thought that the cloud poison in Yun Qing originated from the cloud needle she ejaculated herself, and the cloud needle was the secret of the empty needle, and only Yun Qing herself knew.
I can't figure it out, since there was no cloud poison in the needle at that time, where did this cloud poison come from? It's impossible for Yun Qingping to fall for cloud poison for no reason, right?
"That day, this slut deceived me to make a move, I was so annoyed that I wanted to see the truth of the cloud needle in her hand, it was on the edge of the cliff, so I was afraid that I couldn't control the strength and rushed to the cliff mouth, and I paid special attention to collect some force to grab her, but when I lifted my breath and flew away, it seemed that suddenly there was a force that pushed me forward, I wanted to restrain the force, to compete with the thrust, but the force suddenly loosened, my own force was not contained in time, and I hit the tree directly behind, this force of the backlash was incomparably large, almost the force of my whole body was scattered, My back hurt, and in addition to the pain of the bump, there was also the pain of being pricked by needlesβyes, I did get pricked by a cloud needle from the tree, and my mind went blank at the time, and something was swimming behind me like a snake, andβ" Yun Qing glared, thinking back to the scene before she died, and although she had been dead for many years, she still had an unspeakable fear of death.
"And then what's wrong?" I was a little nervous.
Yun Qing turned his head to stare straight at me and said, "There is a cloud needle behind me that is not empty. β
"How so? Didn't you say that all three needles were empty? β
"Behind me, there are four cloud needles."
