Chapter 058: Du Qiushi or the Seventh Prince?
Regarding the Du family, Zhao Fuling also had this impression.
Peony immediately nodded: "Yes, Uncle Du's son is named Qiushi, nineteen years old, in ...... Died during the palace change. ”
"Dead?" Zhao Fuling raised her eyebrows, "How did you die?" ”
Peony shook her head: "The slave doesn't know either, I only heard the people in the palace mention him." It is a pity to say that he died, and he was only named as a flower by the emperor last year. ”
Zhao Fuling was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Is there any other population in the Du family?" ”
Peony frowned, pondered, and finally shook her head: "After Your Majesty ascended the throne, all the people in the Du family were beheaded in the name of rebellion. Even the Du Mansion was also sealed, and there should be no one else. ”
Zhao Fuling pursed her lips when she heard this.
She leaned against the head of the bed, tugging at the curtain of the bed.
After a while, he suddenly said: "This Du Gongzi should not be the Du family." ”
Peony had just made the bed, and when she heard this, she turned her head curiously: "What did Niang Niang say?" ”
Zhao Fuling sat up, looked at Peony and said firmly: "The Du Qiushi you mentioned was promoted by the emperor as Tanhualang last year. But Ying Qi only said yesterday that he had been fighting on the battlefield with his master for many years. So Du Qiushi is a flower explorer, how could he go to the border to join the army? ”
Peony was stunned when she heard this, and it took a while to react: "Yes......"
Zhao Fuling continued to ask her: "Are you very sure that this Du Gongzi is from Shangjing?" ”
was asked by Zhao Fuling, but Peony was unsure: "Eighty percent is." ”
"That's it. He is from Shangjing, and in this case, he deliberately called himself Du. The surname Du should have a special meaning for him. ”
Zhao Fuling directly thought of Queen Du and asked Peony, "How many sons does Queen Du have?" ”
Peony hurriedly said: "The two sons, the first prince and the seventh prince, are both from Queen Du. ”
"What about the crown prince and the seven princes?"
Peony didn't wonder that Zhao Fuling didn't remember anything, just sat on the edge of the bed and said patiently: "When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was touring south, he was taken away by the torrent and died unexpectedly. The Seven Princes...... During the palace change, he was burned to death in Kunning Palace with Queen Du. ”
Zhao Fuling was stunned, she didn't expect this family to be so miserable.
"Confirmed burned?"
Peony nodded, "There are two corpses in the Kunning Palace. ”
"There are corpses, but they don't have to be theirs." Zhao Fuling's face softened, and she said leisurely, "What if it's just a plan for the golden cicada to get out of its shell?" ”
You must know that the Du Xuan son next door happens to have a jade pendant of the dragon totem on his body.
If you are not mistaken, this Du Xuan is probably the seventh prince who was "burned to death".
Zhao Ling's inference was reasonable, but Peony was so shocked that her eyes widened instantly.
Knowing that this girl was timid, Zhao Fuling comforted her in a calm tone: "I'm just guessing, not necessarily accurate." And who stipulated that Tanhualang can't join the army? He may also be Du Qiushi, the only son of the Du family. ”
Zhao Fuling leaned sideways with interest, stretched her cheeks and continued: "Or, if you take 10,000 steps back, this son may just make up a surname to hide people's eyes." There are many businessmen who come to Beijing, and it is normal for them to be able to speak the official dialect of Shangjing. Nothing is certain, is it? ”
Peony listened to her own argument and overturned it, and her tense little face finally relaxed.
But Zhao Fuling was obviously more interested in the Seventh Prince.
She asked Peony, "Do you know the name of the Seven Princes?" ”
Peony hurriedly shook her head: "The slave doesn't know." ”
Zhao Fuling nodded, simply stopped asking, and lay down on her own.
