Chapter 24: The Mystery of Life 1
Yan Shuosheng was silent for a long time, almost making Mei Aoshuang think that he was so immersed in his own thoughts that he forgot that there was still her as an audience, before he finally spoke.
Different from listening to Xue Gu's narration, Mei Aoshuang's feelings at this time were ups and downs, although she was a wisp of ghost from another world, but she always had the blood of the Mei family flowing in her body.
"Speaking of Mei Xiaohan, the third lang of the Mei family, that is, your father. Back then, as long as the people of the eastern border country heard this name, they would sincerely admire it. ”
Mei Xiaohan, this name reminds Mei Aoshuang of a very famous poem - "The blade of the sword comes from the sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold." ”
"San Lang Mei Xiaohan, is the third son of General Mei, and the youngest son, when the Eastern Linguo fought for many years to resist the frequent invasion of the Western Chu State on the border, the two sons of General Mei died on the battlefield, only the Mei family Saburo killed the enemy on the battlefield, and repeatedly performed miraculous feats. Due to his outstanding military achievements, he was made a marquis at a young age, and married Bai Zhi, the daughter of the left minister. Back then, there was a saying that even three-year-old children knew, the Mei family had a San Lang, and Ding'an was in the country. Because the title given by the first emperor is the Marquis of Ding'an. ”
So, she is still a young lady from the Houfu family, but now she is down to live in the mountains, probably because of the sentence "high merit covers the master".
At that time, the crown prince Fuyu was now the Donglin Emperor, who ascended to the throne after the death of the first emperor, but the Queen Mother not only assisted him, but also controlled the government and the dictatorship of relatives, the Queen Mother's brother Leng Kuiguan worshiped the protector of the country, but she was not satisfied, in order to consolidate the family power, but also let the Donglin Emperor marry her niece, that is, Leng Meihua, the daughter of Leng Kui, and canonized as a gorgeous concubine. ”
Hearing this, Mei Aoshuang knew that the direction she had guessed just now was wrong, there was no real power in the hands of Emperor Donglin at that time, and her father Ding'an Hou naturally would not die because of "high merit", it seems that he was a victim of the struggle for imperial power.
"At first, Emperor Donglin was still afraid of the relationship between mother and son, and did not want Concubine Hua to be jealous, so he not only killed the harem concubines, but also secretly killed the royal heirs. It wasn't until Emperor Donglin had a favorite concubine who was poisoned and plotted, and the eight-month-old fetus in his womb was almost unsafe, and Emperor Donglin finally made up his mind. ”
The most ruthless imperial family!
Mei Aoshuang didn't believe that this was another story of "rushing to the crown and being angry", the favored concubine who was plotted can only be said to be a fuse, if Emperor Donglin himself had no ambition, there would be no later story.
"In order to help Emperor Donglin regain power, your father pretended to be friendly with the Leng family, and for many years he was false and wronged, secretly collecting the Leng family's crimes, and even so angry that General Mei was bedridden, and Zuo Xiang even declared that he had nothing to do with his daughter Bai Zhi. ”
It turned out that her father also went undercover in order to break into the enemy! Sure enough, throughout the ages, as long as he was an undercover agent, he didn't end well!
"Until the time is ripe, Ding'an Hou and the right prime minister joined forces, and the internal and external responses finally defeated the Leng family, although the trees fell and scattered, they didn't want the Leng family to have a residual force. That day, it has been thirteen years now......" Yan Shuosheng's eyes flashed with tears, and he said, "That evening, the Marquis of Ding'an set up a banquet and Murong Sheng, the son of the right prime minister, to drink in the peach orchard of the fiefdom, but unexpectedly, a killer had already ambushed here. And my father was a general under the command of the Marquis of Ding'an, and he fought his way out of the siege with his two children, and finally fell in front of the house...... He has become a man of blood. On his deathbed, he instructed me to take good care of these two children. ”
Back then, he was only in his twenties, but now he is thirty years old, and he missed the great time when Donglin Erlang made great achievements, but when he saw the Mei brothers and sisters now, he didn't feel any regrets......
