Chapter 105: Do You Thoroughly Investigate Your True Colors—Jiang, Tian...
The fire in the Temple of Taishi burned for three days before it could be extinguished. Not only the Taishi Palace, but even the entire Ganquan Palace, nearly two-thirds of the area was reduced to ashes!
Empress Dowager Jiang and Princess Yongfu both died in the fire - on the cleared field, it can be vaguely seen how the most noble woman of Da Rui insisted on protecting her daughter in the last period of her life: even if the crawling posture has been burned to charcoal, the perseverance and firmness revealed still make the audience unmoved!
Jiang Yashuang, who was finally released from the yard, only glanced at it after arriving in a hurry, and then hurriedly retreated behind the tree, and the young and always healthy man raised his sleeves to hide his face, and without waiting for Jiang Shan to ask, he spat out several mouthfuls of blood!
The blood of the heart under the anger dyed the moon-white sleeves shockingly, and the henchman was so frightened that his face was pale: "Son's Day mourns!" Childe's Day mourns! ”
His hurried cry alarmed Jiang Yadan, who came together, and hurriedly stepped forward to support his younger brother, ordering him to quickly ask for a doctor-
And the Queen Mother and the eldest princess were by no means the only victims in this fire.
In the afternoon of the same day, the mother and son of the concubine were found to have been killed in the Quezhi Palace!
It is rumored that there is a river of blood in the Quezhi Palace, and the waiters who serve the mother and son of the noble concubine are all killed, and the situation is unbearable!
——The emperor, who has been on the throne for less than six years and is known for his filial piety, changed his mind overnight, killed his brother and sister, and after stabbing his concubine and his son, in front of everyone, he jumped into the highest dangerous moon tower in Funing Palace, and died in front of the ministers, which shocked the whole world!
The regent Jiang family, in addition to crying for the innocent queen mother, eldest princess, concubine, and second prince, quickly reacted - first put the emperor in the coffin.
Secondly, the country cannot be without a king for a day, the eldest prince Chu Shao, who has recovered from illness, ascended the throne as the new monarch in front of the spirit, and Queen Xin, who did not have time to figure out the cause and effect, was promoted to the queen mother in a blink of an eye!
The third is to track down the reason for the great change in the mind of Chu Weisang, the emperor - this will be called the first emperor!
"Hah! Cause? Jiang Tianqi didn't look at the notice handed over by his henchman, he still couldn't understand his hatred, and raised his leg and kicked down the bookshelf next to him - his beloved books, antiques, and treasures Ping Pong fell all over the place, but he didn't even look at it, and smashed his fist on the red sandalwood cloud thunder pattern curl case, and laughed loudly, "The real emperor has already burned to the ground in the Taishi Palace, and the stand-in you are looking for has also been dutifully smashed into meat sauce, what is the reason who knows better than you in this world, and now there is also a face for your henchmen to be the court, please investigate thoroughly?!" Do you want to find out your true face - Jiang, Tian, Chi!! ”
No one can describe Jiang Tianqi's mood at the moment!
As the eldest son of Qin Guogong, he grew up in the shadow of his cousin Jiang Tianqiao since he was a child, and even if he became an adult, he could not avoid being affected by the affection between his elders, which was already a kind of sadness.
After middle age, he was gradually compared by his younger brother Jiang Tianchi to a fool who didn't know gold and jade - even if few people dared to mention it, Jiang Tianqi always remembered: his stepmother, Mrs. Tao, suggested that he join the army several times, but he regarded it as a deliberate attempt to curry favor with Jiang Tianqiao and refused angrily; And Jiang Tianchi, his younger brother who has been silent since he was a child and has never complained about his father's partiality, resolutely left his wife and young son, packed his bags and rushed to northern Xinjiang, and quietly became the new generation of power in the Jiang family!
Even so, because Sifang has always given people the impression that "military power is in hand and political affairs are weak", although Jiang Tianqi is unhappy, he still thinks that he still has the strength to fight with this younger brother!
But who would have thought that when he was still thinking about how to subdue many brothers, the general of Zhenbei, who had been away from home for decades and had only returned once after the death of the Marquis of Jibei, had already set his sights on Funing Palace quietly? !
Such a big event, Jiang Tianchi didn't even tell the Guogong Mansion when he did it - there is no doubt that Jiang Tianchi was telling the entire Jiang family in his own way: even without the help of the Guogong Mansion, he alone is enough to usurp the throne!
Since the Jiang family didn't use the help of the Jiang family when he usurped the throne, then after the usurpation, the Jiang family should not expect to negotiate conditions with him!
People are still far away from the mountains, but the momentum of the king of the world seems to have arrived in front of him!
“…… According to the meaning of the fourth master, the first emperor was killed by a secret spy infiltrated by the Western Barbarians...... Fall for the witchcraft! After venting for a long time, Jiang Tianqi looked at his henchman who was lying on the ground and trembling, but sighed tiredly and said lightly, "That's why my temperament has changed greatly, all because of my lost mind...... As for why Jinshang and Empress Dowager Xin were spared, and the Duchess of Eguo and the sons and daughters of the Duke of Eguo, who were in the Beique Hall at that time, were safe and sound, it was because of ...... Because ......"
After thinking about it for a while, he didn't find a suitable reason, Jiang Tianqi waved his hand and said indifferently, "Think of a reasonable reason for yourself!" ”
“…… Be! The henchman was sweating profusely, wiping cold sweat and retreating.
The third room is uncomfortable, and the big room is not much better, and it is even more devastating-
Xiao Dou's cloaked hair tightly grabbed Jiang Yayun's arm and screamed hysterically: "How can you do it?!" How can you do it-the second prince is just that, Jiang Tianchi has the idea of usurping the throne, and now he will not escape death if he keeps it! But Huizhi she-"
"If Huizhi doesn't die, our room will always have a handle in the hands of the fourth room!" Jiang Yayun looked at her coldly and said in a deep voice, "Don't you forget, although Lady Lin and His Majesty have a part in the matter of the nineteenth daughter-in-law falling into the lake, the mastermind is Huizhi and us!" ”
"Nineteen daughters-in-law?!" Xiao Dou sneered and said in a trembling voice, "Nineteen's current situation is still what you told me—the good days of their husband and wife being in love have come to an end, aren't they?!" It's not a little eighth daughter-in-law......"
"What do you know?!" Jiang Yayun said hesitantly, "Nineteen is also the son of the fourth uncle if he is snubbed again!" It's his son, and he has a reason to stand out! Think about our previous grievances with the fourth room! If you don't kill Huizhi's mother and son to show submission, do you think that the fourth uncle will come back and let us go?! ”
Xiao Dou gritted his teeth and said: "No matter how much you want to kill Huizhi, it shouldn't be you!" You're her biological father—that's our eldest daughter, and you can be ruthless about it! You brute...... In vain I believed your words, and told Hui Zhi that as long as she did nothing, my poor daughter, how would she feel when she went?? ”
"Huizhi is our eldest daughter, what about Jing Xu?!" Jiang Yayun's cold face suddenly distorted, and he couldn't hold back his roar, "You and I are willing to do this?!" I'm lying to you just to let your mother and daughter see each other one last time...... Do you know how much risk you have taken to enter the palace by pretending to be a palace maid?!! ”
After he hoced a few times, tears fell like rain without warning: "First the second brother and then the mother!" Two people in our room have died in the hands of the fourth room, you and I don't want to take revenge and don't want to give justice to the second brother and mother?! But instead of doing that, I personally ordered my own daughter and grandson to be killed...... You say I feel good?! But what's the way not to do that?! ”
"You don't know how good the Queen Mother has been to Nineteen over the years!"
"Really treat him as a parent and son - the place where he can be lifted never falls, and what good things don't need to be said to be sent to him - if the queen mother has a son herself, it will probably hurt so much! Not only nineteen, but also those sins made by Xiaoba, just with the palace concubine. Rape this one, put it on other people, ten lives are gone! Is there only one palace concubine he hooked up with?! If it weren't for the Queen Mother's efforts to maintain it, he would have survived to this day?! The Queen Mother often scolds Xiaoba for not being angry, but she never spares no effort when she protects him! ”
"But how do you see how the fourth uncle treats the Queen Mother?! Burned alive...... You should go to the Temple of Fortune to see that scene! Nineteen years old looked at it at a young age and his heart hurt so much that he vomited blood, he was carried back, you know!? ”
"Even the Queen Mother's only bone and blood Yongfu couldn't live!"
"Who is Shang Yongfu?! Jing Bo's son, Ou Bicheng, - speaking of which, the fourth uncle watched grow up and regarded as a younger generation of sons and nephews! How loving is he and Yongfu? Before the marriage, they often played together, and after marriage, they were even more famous for being like glue, so that although Yongfu was the only biological blood of the Queen Mother, she did not set foot in the palace except for the New Year's Festival! How many days have they been married? It's not even a year old, and when it comes to being a bride, she died in the apse of the Taishi Palace!! ”
"This is still the person who pours out his heart and lungs for the fourth uncle's sister-in-law - the fourth uncle is still so ruthless, if we want to live in this room, can we not sacrifice Huizhi?!"
Jiang Yayun said and spoke, he suddenly felt dizzy, he stretched out his hand, trying to grab something, but several struggles were in vain, in the screams of Xiao Dou, he suddenly lost all consciousness!
…… It was late at night.
The noise of the day disappeared like a low tide.
In the silent courtyard, the lights are silent, but the early spring season is as cold and bleak as if the cold winter has not passed.
In the inner room, the autumn swaying was green and silky, leaning on the crypt sac, quietly staring at the nephew and son who were sleeping side by side in the couch. There was still worry on the children's innocent and immature faces, which were frightened after seeing Jiang Yashuang being carried back during the day.
Thinking of that scene - the moon-white robe was covered with blood, tight. Closed eyes, pale face...... Qiu Yulan's heart suddenly felt a sharp pain!
At the same time, there was a sharp pain in the abdomen!
"Calm down! Calm down! She immediately pulled up the corners of the quilt and bit it hard, beads of sweat quickly appeared on her forehead, her eyebrows were frowned, and she endured it patiently, "For the sake of the child...... For the sake of the children......"
After a long time, the middle coat was already wet with sweat, and Qiu Yulan finally felt the colic in his abdomen recede.
She loosened the quilt weakly, leaned weakly on the crypt sac, and looked at the top of the tent in a daze.
"Suhe!" After recovering some strength, he wiped the cold sweat from his sideburns little by little with a handkerchief, and Qiu Yulan called in a low voice, "Go get some water and wipe it for me!" ”
After a while, Su He and Chun Ran came in with a basin of water, Fu Qiu Lulan got off the bed, and wiped it behind the screen.
Touching the wet middle coat on her body, Su He and Chun Ran looked worried, and wanted to say something, but they heard Qiu Yulan ask first: "How is Nineteen?" ”
"The doctor said it was angry and attacked......
"Don't talk about that, just talk about what happened to the other people? Awakened? ”
"Nope." Su He pursed his lips before he whispered, "The doctor said that I won't be able to wake up for the past two days......
Qiu Yulan was silent for a long time before asking, "Who is guarding there now?" Jiang Shan alone? Still is? ”
"It's the eighth son." Chun Ran whispered, "The eighth prince didn't leave after sending the nineteenth prince back, and the eighth young lady sent someone to ask, and the eighth prince said that he would stay here tonight." ”
After a pause, he said, "The maid in front of the eighth prince came over and told us not to worry, the eighth prince will take care of the nineteenth son." Let you recuperate with peace of mind and take care of the two Sun Gongzi and Miss Sun! ”
Qiu Yulan didn't speak, and after wiping her body and changing into a middle coat, she asked lightly: "What about grandmother?" How's Grandma's? ”
