"Can you find out why?" Chen Ying asked.

Concubine Wu shook her head: "Where is it so easy?" On that day, in addition to me being promoted to Zhaoyi, there were several other people who were promoted to the throne with me. I asked Ah Dong to go out and inquire for a long time, until it was dark, and I couldn't hear anything. ”

"What about after dark?" Chen Ying immediately asked.

Concubine Wu was a little accustomed to her cleverness and intelligence, and she no longer showed appreciation at this time, and only followed her words:

"That's true. After dark, Ah Dong came back from outside, and said that something seemed to have happened in the Chengping Palace, that is, the place where the first emperor saw the excerpts, and he was afraid that he would cause trouble for me, so he didn't ask much. I just wanted to know what was going on, so I asked people everywhere on the second day, and then I learned that there was a prince who drowned in the flower pond of the Imperial Garden that night. ”

Chen Ying's heart suddenly lifted

At that moment, she had vaguely guessed the answer.

Sure enough, Concubine Wu quickly continued: "The dead prince Xingliu is the current Majesty. ”

It's true!

Chen Ying opened her eyes slightly, and there was an unconcealable surprise on her face.

Concubine Wu was reborn six times, it turned out that it was all for Emperor Yuanjia.

And thinking about the trajectory of Emperor Yuanjia's ascension to the throne in this life, the role played by Concubine Wu in it is not insignificant.

You must know that the reason why Emperor Yuanjia set up the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces was that Concubine Wu tried medicine and pulled him back from the line of death.

Now that I think about it, the number of times Concubine Wu has actually saved Emperor Yuanjia should be far more than this.

"After hearing the news, I immediately knew that the dead Six Princes were afraid that it had a great deal to do with my rebirth." Concubine Wu said, her expression a little bitter: "It's just that by the time I understand it, everyone is already dead." And because his biological mother was just a lowly-class palace person, the first emperor didn't take it seriously at all, so he hastily held a funeral. ”

In other words, in this fourth life, the opportunity for Concubine Wu to change her fate has been lost from the beginning.

"In the first three lives, I patronized myself, and I didn't know about such a big thing. In this way, I deserve to be dead and alive. Concubine Wu added another sentence.

It sounded casual, but her expression was still resentful, and she didn't know whether to blame God or herself.

After saying this, she seemed to be tired again, so she turned sideways slightly, put one arm across the case, and said lazily: "In the next few days of that life, I only did two things, one was to read history, and I read all the history books that could be found in the library of the Imperial City, and I read them over and over again; The second is to climb to the position of the noble concubine, and with the favor of the first emperor, the prince, King An and King Kang are all trapped. ”

She raised her hand, blew her fingernails, and looked idle: "The first emperor used to like these sons, how could I do it later, they themselves are not angry, the first emperor was a few times, he got suspicious, and killed them one by one." Therefore, the one who ascended the throne in that life was King Ning. ”

King Ning?

In this life, King Ning's ending was to die on the way to the fiefdom.

It turned out that he had also been an emperor.

This is really a dragon chair to sit in turns, and everyone has a share.

Chen Ying couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and her perception of Concubine Wu also changed greatly.

If you don't have strong nerves, superb means, and careful planning, how can you change the emperor into new clothes?

Anyway, Chen Ying thought to herself that she didn't have this ability.

It is precisely because of this that she finally began to understand why Concubine Wu was surrounded by a group of diehards.

This woman who has controlled the direction of imperial power will be superior to the public in terms of vision, wisdom, mind, and means, and her feminine charm and personality charm are also great.

Don't talk about ordinary scholars, they are people who stand at the top of the imperial power, and I am afraid that they will also fall for it and be convinced.

"King Ning's year name is Yongchun." Concubine Wu put down her hand and smiled at Chen Yingwan: "In that life, Yongchun Pavilion was raised in front of me, and after he ascended the throne, I killed the Queen Mother at that time, and Emperor Yongchun respected me as the Queen Mother." At that time, I thought that if I personally instructed him to be emperor, I could not break the curse of not living to be thirty-five years old. ”

She laughed twice, and her eyes became desolate: "But I don't know that Emperor Yongchun is filial on the surface, but in fact, he has already killed me." At the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace banquet in the fifth year of Yongchun, he poisoned my food, and when he was poisoned, he stood in front of me. I will never forget his eyes, the cold and poisonous there, I am afraid that it can freeze and poison people to death. ”

She raised her head and threw a cold glance towards the deepest part of the willow smoke.

Soon, however, she collected her emotions and said in a slightly relaxed tone: "As I was dying, I forced my last breath to ask him, 'Why did you kill me?' Am I not treating you well enough? Guess what he did to me? ”

She looked at Chen Ying, and a few sparks seemed to jump in her eyes.

Without waiting for Chen Ying to answer, she quickly took the rest of the words: "He told me that I killed his mother, and he was avenging his mother." The funny thing is that his mother died of illness at all, and she has nothing to do with anyone, and he himself knows it very well. He's just looking for a reason to kill me. If I die, how can I say that I can't help him? ”

She sneered, and the corners of her mouth twitched to the side: "The funny thing is that at the moment when I took my last breath, the imperial city was actually breached, and the inner servant who reported the news stumbled in and said that the king of Pingjun actually joined forces with the king of northern Xinjiang and led the troops into the imperial city, under the banner of 'the king of killing mothers, everyone will be punished'." ”

Before she could say anything, she finally laughed out loud and burst into tears.

Chen Ying stared at her, and sighed infinitely for a while.

Concubine Wu should have a mother-son relationship with King Ning back then.

It's just that, under the great temptation of imperial power, these few feelings are just waved away.

At least King Ning didn't look at it at all.

After a while, Concubine Wu finally smiled, wiped the corners of her eyes, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, it's me who lost your manners, but I told you to watch the joke." ”

"I don't think it's ridiculous." Chen Ying shook her head and said sincerely: "Niangniang has died and lived several times, and she can still be so open-minded today, which is really admirable." ”

It's still the same as before, this kind of heart-wrenching experience, if you don't have a strong will, you definitely can't afford it.

Hearing this, Concubine Wu snorted, waved her hand indifferently and said, "If you were me, you would also feel ridiculous." It is really in front of the will of heaven, and this little calculation of people is not worth mentioning at all. ”

She waved her hand, as if to wave away the past, and said: "In short, I died like this in the fourth life, and as for the fifth life, I ......."

"Wait." Chen Ying interrupted her softly and asked, "You haven't said who the king of Naping County is." ”
