Chapter 011: The Beauty of the Mountains (1)
More than 50 years ago, there was a murder in Shengjing City.
Today's king's sister, Princess Hanji, was killed by thieves, and the poor princess was pregnant for ten months, and before she could give birth to a child, she died.
At that time, when Shengliang was first built, thieves were rampant in Beijing, and some people took a fancy to the pearl in the palace of the king, so they entered the palace to steal.
The palace was heavily guarded, and the thieves alarmed the guards, so they had to flee in all directions, and one of the thieves hid in the palace of Princess Hanhime and was discovered by the attendants of Hanhime's palace.
The thieves were afraid that they would attract the guards who were searching for them, and lied that their mother was sick and needed the pearl for medicine, Princess Hanji was kind-hearted, and in order to heal the thief's mother, she secretly took out the pearl of the king, but unfortunately, the thief was not grateful for the kindness of Princess Hanji, and after getting the pearl, he was afraid that they would reveal his whereabouts, and brutally killed Princess Hanji and her palace attendants.
This story is spread in Shengliang Middle School, and even three-year-old children know it.
The elders of the family, whenever they mention this matter, often use it to educate future generations, not to learn from Princess Hanji, who mistakenly helped the wolf-hearted person, and as a result, he lost his life.
Senior Brother Yi was even more strange, and asked: "This matter, in Shengliang Kingdom, I'm afraid no one doesn't know, what else is worth verifying?" ”
I smiled and replied, "I heard that after the death of Princess Hanji, the king was saddened by the death of his own sister, so he decreed that the tower of eternal life here was built, and its spiritual seat was enshrined in the tower and worshiped by all the people. ”
"Today's king's favor for Princess Hanji is known to the whole world...... "On the way ahead, I don't know which careless novice sprinkled a lot of water, and my senior brother was afraid that I would fall, so he pulled my sleeve and deliberately slowed down.
"When Princess Hanji's husband, King Qin Weiying rebelled and was killed, the king remembered the deep brotherhood, instead of holding the princess responsible, he took care of it in the palace and took care of it, you can imagine how much the king cares about that princess, just build an immortal tower, it's nothing, right?"
I hummed and asked, "Do you remember what happened to that thief?" ”
When the senior brother heard this, he reached out and touched my forehead, and said, "Are you confused with a fever, or are you stupid to read?" ”
"Everyone in the world knows that Princess Hanji died innocently, and the king was very angry, and after arresting the thief, he divided the body of the five horses, and the body was exposed in the market...... I heard that back then, the residents on the streets of Xijing did not dare to go out during the day, and the body of the thief was dried on the street for dozens of days, the stench was unbearable, the flies and insects were all over the sky, and finally it was eaten by wild dogs and birds, so the disposal was also regarded as revenge for the princess......"
As he spoke, he finally realized something, and his tone gradually slowed down, and he looked at me and asked in a daze, "Scarlet, who is the baby who crawled out of the incense ding?" ”
I scoffed, "How do I know?" ”
"That ......"
He frowned, took two steps forward, and seemed to be a little afraid: "Who is the one who sealed that baby in the incense ding?" ”
I stopped, stood behind my back, and looked at him.
The senior brother looked flustered, and analyzed in a low voice: "This incense tripod is now in the Fahua Temple, but most of the things in the Fahua Temple belong to the Tianzheng Academy, and the Tianzheng Yuan was loyal to the king back then, so it is ......."
He turned abruptly and looked at me, trying to compose himself, and muttered, "So...... Who will be the thief who was dismembered by the king's five horses and exposed to the corpse market? ”
