She said these words calmly, but the hearts of those who listened to them boiled. Who would have thought that Gu Linsheng, the first assistant who was beheaded all over the house many years ago because of rebellion, would be the illegitimate son of the Empress Dowager.

Such speculation was too absurd, and the youngest second prince was the first to shout: "You...... Sling the bull! ”

The Empress Dowager said: "Yan Shining, Wang Zhuo, are indeed people from the mourning family, for so many years, the mourning family has been weaving a net, in order to avenge my son." It's just that they're too useless, and they can't do a little thing. ”

Song Ran's voice trembled lightly: "So, you abandoned them." ”

Yan Shining committed suicide by swallowing poison, and Wang Zhuo also lost the lives of his entire family.

The corners of the Empress Dowager's lips lifted slightly, but there was a cold light in her eyes: "When the mourning family was still your age, it was also soft-hearted and would fight for the poor people, but no one was unhappy for the mourning family. first forcibly broke up the mourning family and Liu Sheng, took away the children of the mourning family, and married the mourning family to Emperor Taizu for the honor and disgrace of the family. ”

married Emperor Taizu, thinking that he was favored, but later, he lost his son again and again, and his body and mind were full of wounds. One day, she suddenly realizes that instead of trying to snatch Jun'en, it is better to go to great lengths to get power, and this is the way for her to survive. The only way.

The mourning family thought that the child who was taken away by his brother was dead, so he always hated his brother and hated the Xie family, and later the mourning family knew that the child who was taken away by him was still alive in this world. He is so good, so ambitious, from a cloth cloth, step by step to help Emperor Yongrui win the heir, with great power in his hands, the scenery is the same. However, the mourning family could not recognize him, so they could only silently fulfill the duties of a mother, in order to stabilize his position and remove all obstacles for him. ”

When Shen Hanxi heard this, he couldn't help but sneer: "Because the thirteen princes at that time were very eyesore, so you secretly persecuted and forced each other, but if he hadn't been cornered, he wouldn't have had the idea of seizing the throne." Later, Gu Lin lost power, and you have a share of the credit of your mother. ”

The Empress Dowager looked at him coldly: "Shen Hanxi, you are just a dog raised by my son, and the dog still knows how to defend the master, but you bite back when the master loses power, in the eyes of the mourning family, you are not even as good as a dog." ”

Shen Hanxi was insulted by her, but she was not angry, she just stood up, raised her eyebrows and said, "Shen someone will be like this, it is all good for his father-in-law." After more than ten years of not being treated as a human being by his old man's side, there is a chance to get rid of such a fate, Shen naturally wants to catch it, the ants are still stealing, let alone a living person. ”

The Empress Dowager looked at him with contempt, as if she were looking at an ant.

She turned to the Son of Heaven, who had been silent: "Twelve years ago, the first emperor was with this person to attack the Jinluan Palace and force your father to abdicate, and the scene was exactly the same as today. How foolish you are that you should join hands with him to deceive the mourners. ”

After that, he said: "It won't be long before the soldiers and horses of the mourning family will pour into the forbidden city from all directions." Slowing down his tone, he pulled him and said, "Guangxuan, you are the favorite grandchild of the mourning family, the mourning family will give you another chance to choose, to the mourning family, you can get the woman you want, and you can continue to sit firmly in this Dajing country." ”

Her words were full of temptation, Song Ran couldn't help but tense her body, but she heard the Son of Heaven sneer: "Even if there is no forced palace today, I will be like my father and the first emperor, I will die silently and inexplicably at a young age." ”

Song Ran's chest was startled, and he heard him speak coldly: "Although the first emperor and my father were not born to the same mother, they are also in harmony with Xunchi and have deep brotherhood, however, the temptation of the throne is too great, and my father is fascinated for a while, for the sake of the supreme throne, he alienates his brother and trusts Gu Linsheng, but he doesn't want to fall into hell." Lord Shen should know better than anyone else that Gu Linsheng's control over people is almost inhuman, even if he is the king of a country, he is also played with by him. ”

When he said this, because he was too excited, his body couldn't stop trembling: "When my father died, he was not yet the year of his establishment, and the first emperor was too, and at a young age, he got a strange disease, and no one in the entire Tai Hospital could say how this disease was obtained and how it should be treated. ”

He stared at the other as if to find a hint of guilt on her wrinkled face. However, there was no expression on the face of the Empress Dowager: "Do you mean to say that the illnesses of your father and the former emperor are all the work of the mourning family?" Said indifferently, "Shen Hanxi is such a traitor, you actually believe it?" ”

A cold smile appeared on the face of the Son of Heaven: "How can I have no evidence. As he spoke, he said to the eunuch standing on the side, "Pass the palm seal of Li." ”

The eunuch wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said, "Holy Lord, this ......"

Wherever he goes, it's a bright blade, how can he pass it on?

King Chengwu straightened his sleeves, proposed a solution, and said to the commander of the forbidden army: "Commander Xie, you and I will each send one person to follow this father-in-law and go to Li Zhangyin's place, how about it?" ”

Xie He glanced at the Empress Dowager and got her permission, so he ordered someone and followed the eunuch to the official residence of the celebrant eunuch.

Soon, the father-in-law invited Li Moting from the celebrant supervisor, but there was another person who followed him. When Song Ran saw that person, he couldn't help but breathe slightly.

It was a woman, wearing a plain filial piety dress, and she didn't apply powder, but she couldn't hide her gorgeous complexion.

It turned out to be Su Long.

The Empress Dowager's originally indifferent face showed a slight paleness. The person who should have died suddenly appeared in front of her, she was naturally surprised.

Song Ran confirmed: "Concubine Yi? ”

Su Long's gaze was a little dull, and when he heard this, he gently bit his lower lip and did not speak. Li Moting, who was beside her, saluted the Son of Heaven and said, "Holy Lord, the minister brought Concubine Yi Niangniang." ”

The Son of Heaven nodded and said, "I'll trouble Li Zhangyin and explain to the imperial grandmother for me, what is going on." ”

Li Moting saluted again, turned to the Empress Dowager, and said: "Concubine Yi Niangniang used the child in her womb to frame Lord Shen, but because Lord Shen took the black lotus for Concubine Yi in advance, Concubine Yi Niangniang temporarily fell into suspended animation, before Niangniang's coffin was funeral, the Musk Palace was suddenly burned by a fire, however, the minister was ordered by the saint to take Concubine Yi Niangniang away from the Musk Lan Palace for placement one day in advance, so the fire in the Musk Palace did not burn the Niang Niang to death. ”

His tone was flat, and in this tense atmosphere, he seemed extremely elegant and calm.

Song Ran glanced at the Son of Heaven, and in his encouraging eyes, he asked Su Long softly: "Niangniang, I have some questions I want to ask you, I hope you can answer them truthfully." ”

Su Long nodded.

She sorted out her thoughts and asked: "Tiger poison does not eat children, Niangniang would rather sacrifice the fetus in the womb than blame the adult, but she is coerced?" ”

When Su Long heard the words "Tiger poison does not eat children", her body shook slightly, her hand trembled on her lower abdomen, and a desperate smile appeared on the corner of her lips: "I am willing to blame the adult." ”

Her face was extremely white, and it seemed that her eyes were getting darker and darker, and there seemed to be no light in them.

"In the Holy Lord's diet, there is a kind of poison that rains all year round, and if this poison is taken in sufficient amount, it will kill people instantly, but if it is only a little bit every time, it will only make people's bodies weaker and weaker, and even the imperial doctors can't detect it."

She said, looking at Shen Hanxi: "What Emperor Yongrui has in his body is also the same poison. ”

Song Ran only felt shocked in his heart, and blurted out: "Falling wild goose? ”

Su Long nodded slowly, and his voice became more and more cold and weak: "So, when someone told me that the first emperor was killed by Luoyansha, and the adults gave me this poison in the prison of the Criminal Department, I completely believed it." ”

Song Ran continued to ask, "Who is it...... Tell you such a secret? ”

The atmosphere in the hall was somber and depressing, she didn't speak, but the answer was already coming out.

The Queen Mother's chin line was tense, and she only sneered and did not speak.

Su Long finally turned his gaze to her, his voice was low, but there was no trace of timidity, and he said slowly: "In this world, there are only two kinds of people who may know how Emperor Yongrui and Emperor Xian died, one is the person who has this poison, and the other is the person who poisoned it. ”

The Empress Dowager finally spoke and said coldly: "Hmph, unfounded speculation! ”

How could she admit that she was the one who harmed the two emperors? If you admit that you have something to do with Gu Linsheng, all this you did today is to take revenge on Shen Hanxi, and there are still some extenuating circumstances, admitting that you are the one who harmed the two sons of heaven, there is nothing worth forgiving.

"Over the years, the body of the saint has become weaker and weaker, but all the imperial doctors are puzzled by this kind of disease that is exactly the same as Emperor Yongrui, until this year, I found Chu Qianyang, the first divine doctor in the rivers and lakes, that I knew that this disease was actually related to 'Luoyansha'. But at this time, the Holy One is already lacking in the ability to return to heaven. ”

It was Shen Hanxi who spoke.

His expression was cold: "If it weren't for Zhou Zicheng's case, my eyes would not have turned to the harem, and I didn't know that in this world, I Shen Hanxi still had such an enemy." ”

Song Ran's palms were sweaty, and he only felt cold in his heart, and muttered: "Who would have thought that the person who poisoned the saint would be the Empress Dowager." ”

The Empress Dowager's face gradually turned pale.

Li Moting straightened his sleeves, and suddenly spoke: "You know that Concubine Yi Niangniang has a deep relationship with the first emperor, so after the death of the first emperor, I wanted to borrow Niangniang's hand to get rid of Lord Shen, Niangniang had no scheming, she believed your words, and made an impulsive move. ”

Su Long finally couldn't help but burst out and rushed towards her: "He has always respected you and regarded you as his mother, how can you treat him so cruelly!" ”

Two sergeants stopped her, her fingers on the other's long knives, so hard that they turned white.

The Empress Dowager sneered, tilted her chin slightly, and seemed to look at her with disdain, without any pity in her voice: "If he is obedient, why is the mourning family like this." ”
