Yanfu had two heyday periods, one was in the early days of the founding of the Dongchen Kingdom, and the other was more than 20 years ago, Yanqing, the eldest daughter of Yanfu, was elected to the palace, and was favored by the emperor because of her outstanding appearance and dancing posture.

At that time, the queen was already established and lived in the East Palace.

The emperor favored Yanqing, and did not want the beauties to be wronged, nor did he want to cause criticism, so he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to build the West Palace for him, and the nightingale song, lingering, and set a lazy political record of two months without an early dynasty.

At that time, the Yan Mansion had lost its prosperity in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the heirs withered, especially the Yanqing family, which had only one brother-in-law, Yan Min.

Yan Qing entered the palace to accompany the king, and was so favored, she would consider her own family, like all favorite concubines, Yan Qing did not blow the wind on the emperor's pillow, and since then, the children of Yan Mansion have been on the rise.

Yan Qing sought the official position of commanding the 100,000 forbidden army in Haotian City for his brother Yan Min, and the children of the Yan family also held important positions in the government and the opposition one after another, and the long-lonely Yan Mansion instantly grew stronger and stronger, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the Yan Mansion at that time was in power to the government and the opposition.

It's a pity that Yan Qing's body is weak, and she finally conceived a child a few years after entering the palace, and during childbirth, she gave birth to Chu Ning for three days and three nights, but she also had half her life, causing her to be difficult to conceive.

Without a son, there is no bargaining chip in this harem.

What about holding power? Not having a son means not even having the qualifications to compete for succession.

In the same year, the queen of the East Palace died, and the queen's only son, Chu Qi, was young, so the West Palace simply adopted Chu Qi, and the adopted son was also a son, which was better than having no son.

When Chu Qi was at the age of marriage, Yan Qing chose a concubine for him and married Yan Ru, the eldest daughter of her brother Yan Min, so that she was even more close to each other, just waiting for Chu Qi to become the prince and inherit the throne, Yan Mansion in Dongchen is the real existence of one person under ten thousand people.

In fact, the situation in Dongchen at that time was clear, and the government and the opposition all looked to the Yan family's horse, and when Chu Qi was 20 years old, he was supported as the crown prince by the ministers, and the battle for the heir did not exist at all, and everyone knew that this throne must be Chu Qi, the adopted son of the West Palace. Up and down, which prince has the strength to compete with Chu Qi?

The old emperor also followed Yan Qing's expectations, and complied with the advice of the ministers to crown Chu Qi as the crown prince, and the whole world celebrated.

But as soon as he came back from the sacrifice, the old emperor was sick, and the illness was very serious, the medicine stone was ineffective, and he was in a coma for more than a month, and he once thought that he could not be saved.

Yan Qing took care of the first emperor in front of the couch, she did not deny that there were too many entanglements of interests between her and the first emperor, but there was no doubt about one thing, she loved him.

If she didn't really love him, she wouldn't have let Yan Min pour the entire Yan family's strength and go to Wujingru to ask for an elixir that can bring the dead back to life, every time she thinks of this, Yan Qing will be haunted by it, if she didn't take the pill of life at that time, it would definitely not be like this at this moment.

At the beginning, there was also a sentence from the sage of the Immortal Gate of Wujingxu who came back with the pill: If you go against the sky, you will be counterattacked.

Even so, she resolutely fed the emperor the pill.

And so, miracles and disasters happened.

After waking up, the old emperor seemed to have changed as a person, not only his temperament had changed greatly, but he was also very suspicious, and he kept saying that someone wanted to harm him and someone wanted to usurp the throne...... And his biggest suspicion is Chu Qi.

Chu Qi is Yan Qing's adopted son, Yan Qing not only controls the entire harem, but also the powerful Yan Mansion behind him.

Suddenly, the old emperor suddenly realized as if he had been struck by lightning, where is this country still his Chu family, and the Yan family will be reversed in the long run~

Since then, he has been indifferent to Yan Qing and has taken precautions against everything, and has not stepped into the West Palace for half a step, and even the tea and soup brought by Yan Qing himself were directly knocked over by him, and he yelled at her: "You are a disaster star that has brought disaster to the country and the people, you are going to harm me!"

How glorious the Yan Mansion used to be, the old emperor was miserable after he recovered from his illness.

The old emperor weakened the rights of the Yan Mansion step by step, and the soldiers of the 100,000 forbidden army of Yan Min were forced to hand over, and launched a purge of the Yan family's children.

Like most aristocratic families, the Yan family was involved in local corruption, bribery, embezzlement of public funds, oppression of the people, and forced good people to become prostitutes...... Such things were verified one by one, and the old emperor personally ordered to be severely punished, and the Yan family's side line collapsed in an instant, and many children were beheaded by raiders.

A group of courtiers inquired in many ways, and after serving for a long time, they finally understood the meaning of the old emperor, and saw that the defeat of the Yan family had been decided, so there were many more people who fell into the ground, and even fabricated evidence to frame Yan Min for treason.

In Dongchen, treason was a capital crime for the nine clans, at that time Chu Qi was young, his blood was strong, and he was upset by his father-in-law Yan Min, and was regarded as the same crime by the emperor in a fit of anger.

Cheng Ye Xiao He was defeated and Xiao He was defeated, the originally good situation collapsed instantly, Yanfu was in trouble, and his brother Yan Min and adopted son Chu Qi were both taken to the prison for beheading.

All this was like a thunderbolt from the blue, destroying all Yan Qing's expectations.

After being ill for a few days, she held on to her breath and knelt in front of the palace of the first emperor for three days and three nights, begging the first emperor to forgive Chu Qi.

At that time, the treasury of Beimo, Qila, was newly enthroned and asked for peace in the name of peace.

The first emperor was hard-hearted and asked Yan Qing to choose between Chu Qi and Chu Ning as a punishment.

In the end, Yan Qing chose Chu Qi and reluctantly married her biological daughter Chu Ning to the bitter cold land of Beimo.

After Chu Qi was released from prison, although he was exempted from the death penalty, he was exiled to the scorching heat and barren land of the sandbank.

Since then, the brother and sister, one south and one north, have never seen each other again.

Soon after, Yan Min was tortured and committed suicide in prison. The Yan Mansion was fined and confiscated the family property, and all the children of the Yan family who had official positions were either killed or exiled.

The first emperor even forbade anyone to talk about Yan and Chu Qi anymore, and even Yan Qing was called "West Palace" after that.

In less than a year, the once famous Yan Mansion disappeared, as if it had never appeared on the historical stage of Dongchen Kingdom.

When Chu Qi was exiled, Yan Min's concubine Yan Ru was pregnant, and the emperor was so ruthless that he didn't even want to let go of his own grandson, so he demoted Yan Ru to a cheap maid and exiled her to the imperial tomb to guard the tomb.

At that time, Yan Qi was twelve years old, because he did not have an official title, after the Yan Mansion raided the house, he was demoted to a commoner and lived in a slum with his mother.

Compared with her sister Yan Ru, Yan Qi and her mother are already very lucky, they were not exiled and enslaved, but they lived a harder life, living in the alleys of Haotian City and making a living from embroidery.

Perhaps it was precisely because Yan Ru was pregnant with the prince that the emperor had many doubts, and the punishment was even harsher.

After Yan Ru gave birth to a child in the imperial tomb, she only had time to give him the name "Tianbao", so she was dragged to work in the field, and died before she was in confinement.

The only steward in the entire imperial tomb who knew Tianbao's life experience, when Tianbao was 5 years old, wrote a note to the emperor and asked him what to do.

At that time, the rebellion in the East China Sea was not settled, and the emperor had just finished approving the expansion of military service, so he frowned and glanced at it, and then ordered Tianbao to be sent to the East China Sea to be a child soldier.

At that time, if it wasn't for the imperial mausoleum steward who wrote that memora, the first emperor would have even forgotten the existence of this imperial grandson, and in the consciousness of the former emperor, whether it was Chu Qi or Tianbao, he should not live too long.

really responded to that sentence: the most ruthless, the emperor's family!
