Chapter 229: Old General Murong

Concubine Li did not listen to the emperor's dissuasion and began a single-minded action against the queen.

Rumors spread from the palace to the ears of the princes and ministers outside the palace, and then from the palaces of the princes and ministers to the people.

The current queen poisoned the former queen for the throne, which has become the latest topic of discussion among the people of the capital.

Some old people still remember Queen Jiang back then, and when they mentioned her, everyone was embarrassed.

"What a queen that is!"

"Yes, I still remember the scene when Empress Jiang accompanied the emperor to the Jade Buddha Temple to burn incense, I was at the foot of the Jade Buddha Temple, looking at Queen Jiang with a face that was kinder than the Buddha......"

That was the only time Empress Jiang accompanied the emperor on a trip.

After that, Queen Jiang became ill and began to linger on the sickbed, and the Zheng family managed the harem for her, and it didn't take long for her to die.

At the beginning, everyone thought that Queen Jiang was fatal, but now it seems that her death turned out to be a huge conspiracy.

Many years after Empress Jiang's death, people suddenly felt that Empress Jiang was flawless.

The streets and alleys are all crusades against Empress Zheng.

This incident, in addition to causing a lot of repercussions among officials and the people, the most powerful reaction was Queen Jiang's mother's family.

Queen Jiang is a rare virtuous and virtuous woman in the Jiang family for several generations.

Since she was a child, she has been the treasure of Mrs. Jiang.

At the beginning, Murong Jingxiang gave his son a concubine, but Mrs. Jiang disagreed at first.

Their Jiang family has been hairpins and meritorious for generations, and their sons are also promising, so there is no need to consolidate the lintel by sending their daughter to the palace.

However, in this family matter, the queen mother said that her old father went to make peace in person, and the Jiang family finally agreed to send the Jiang family to the palace for the sake of the friendship between the two families.

Jiang passed away, and the Jiang family just sighed that her life was short, and no one would have thought that she was killed.

From the deep palace to the folk streets, the rumors of Queen Jiang's poisoning are intensifying, and the Jiang family has no reason not to know.

Knowing that his granddaughter did not die of illness, but was killed by the current queen, the old lady of the Jiang family came to Murong's house tremblingly on crutches.

He questioned the old general Murong mercilessly, "Murong Tai, you old thing, you teamed up with your daughter to trap my good granddaughter!" ”

Murong Tai also entered the age of ancient rarity, after he learned the news that Empress Jiang was murdered, he was furious at home, and at this time he was scolded by Old Lady Jiang pointing his nose, and a mouthful of blood spurted out on the spot.

"Daddy!"

"Old man......"

With Murong Tai vomiting blood, the Murong family was in a mess.

"Hmph," Mrs. Jiang stomped the cane in her hand fiercely, "Don't think that you vomit blood, I won't bother with you, you wait for me, this matter is not over for the Jiang family!" ”

The people who came with the Jiang family saw that the old general Murong vomited blood, and they were afraid that their old lady would be delayed here for a long time, and something would happen, so they immediately persuaded the old lady Jiang to leave.

Knowing that her father vomited blood and fainted, the Queen Mother could no longer sit in the harem, so she hurried out of the palace and returned to Murong Mansion to visit her father.

When the carriage came to the gate of the mansion, Murong Jing actually saw Su Nianyun's figure in the crowd that came out to greet him.

"Nianyun, why are you here?"

"Queen Mother......" Su Nianyun stepped forward, "I heard that the old lady vomited blood, so I rushed here as soon as possible!" ”

She had followed the Queen Mother to see General Murong countless times in the past.

The old general has always been good to her, not only treating her as his own granddaughter, but also often giving her delicious and fun things.

So when the old general had an accident, of course she rushed over.

"With you here, the mourning family is relieved!" The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction.

Su Nianyun's medical skills are superb, and she has experienced it herself.

Seeing Su Nianyun's relaxed expression, it was obvious that his father was fine.

Sure enough, when I entered my father's room, I saw him leaning on the bed in his clothes, drinking the medicine handed by his servant.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Murong Jing walking in, and he snorted coldly and stopped drinking medicine.

"Queen Mother!" The subordinates hurriedly saluted Murong Jing, and then retreated.

In the house, only Murong Tai and Murong Jing were left.

"Father, is there anything else wrong with your body?" Murong Jing asked with concern.

"Yes." Murong Tai nodded indifferently.

"Where, father, where else are you uncomfortable?" Murong Jing was taken aback.

Just as he was about to call Su Nianyun to come in and take a look, he heard the old father say, "My heart, I think you are disgusting when I see you!" ”

Although Murong Tai has been out of military service for a long time, he has been on the battlefield for most of his life, and once the murderous aura on his body is released, the momentum is still terrifying.

Murong Jing sat down on the chair with a pale face, "Father, what are you talking about?" ”

Murong Tai suddenly said, "You are the Queen Mother, I am now the former general and now Xianyun Yehe, you came to see me, but I was lying on the bed, it was really rude to you......"

"Father, what did you say, there are only fathers and daughters here, how can there be any former generals and queen mothers?"

"If you're still my daughter, then I'll ask you a word of truth." Murong Tai stared at Murong Jing's eyes.

"Father, just ask, your daughter won't hide anything from you!"

"Do you know that Empress Jiang was killed by Empress Zheng?"

Murong Jing was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Yes." ”

"You ......" Murong Tai was about to get up angrily, but it caused a huge cough.

"Father, you are not well, wait for two days when you are well, let's talk about this matter!"

When the time comes, she will definitely explain it to her father well.

"You...... Do you know ......?"

Murong Tai forced down his cough, but he didn't want to cross the topic easily.

"When our Murong family was not prominent at the beginning, the Jiang family was already a famous family in Beijing."

"When I lost on the battlefield, the emperor wanted to ask for the guilt, but it was Old Lady Jiang who saved me and our Murong family."

"Even if Empress Jiang passed away later, the Jiang family supported you and the emperor as always, but is this how you repay this kindness?"

"Father, I couldn't help it at the beginning...... You also know that Yan'er has a very stubborn temper, and he always puts his feelings first. ”

"If I had disposed of the Zheng family at that time, it would only make Yan'er get farther and farther away from me...... I had no choice! ”

"No choice?" Murong Tai repeated Murong Jing's words.

"Yes." Murong Jing nodded, "I really don't have a choice. ”

"And after so many years, I have been trying my best to make up for the Jiang family, whether Queen Jiang is there or not, the Jiang family is always the same as before!"

"Can that be the same?"

Murong Tai coughed violently again, "Do you really think that the Jiang family cares about this honor?" ”

"Don't judge others with your ambitions!"

Murong Jing's face became even more ugly.
