Chapter 90: The Bloody Skirt (Part 3)
Celadon pier, a kind of exquisitely crafted seat, the outer porcelain is hollow inside. It can only be used by the Imperial Palace or the Imperial Palace.
Chang Feng lowered his head and stared at the celadon pier.
Xu Fatzi said, "You shouldn't doubt that those charming books are hidden in the celadon pier, right?"
"Impossible, that kind of wonderful book, the emperor has to read it at any time. Is it possible to smash a celadon pier once you see it?"
Chang Feng nodded, "Yes." It can't be hidden in a celadon mound."
He stood up and looked around the East Warm Pavilion. What's missing?
Chang Feng's eyes couldn't help but look at the eight celadon piers.
He held the celadon pier with his hand and shook it one by one.
When the eighth celadon pier was shaken, the celadon pier made a "bang" sound.
Chang Feng and Xu Fatzi glanced at each other. At the same time, he blurted out, "There's something in there!"
The celadon piers are sealed. If you want to see what's inside, you can only smash it.
Listen to the voice, there is not a book hidden in the mound. But Chang Feng was still a little curious: "What will be hidden in the celadon pier that Wan Guifei used before?"
After a while, Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang finished their dinner and returned to the Dongnuan Pavilion.
Emperor Hongzhi asked, "Did you find it?"
Chang Feng said: "Back to the emperor, I didn't find the book. But there seems to be something hidden in this celadon pier."
After speaking, he shook the celadon pier: "Dong Long".
Today's Kunning Palace steward brand is the seal of the internal official and supervisor Li Guang.
Li Guangdao: "Your Majesty, these eight celadon piers are used by Concubine Wan. The old slave hasn't had time to be replaced."
Emperor Hongzhi's curiosity was aroused. He also wanted to know what was hidden inside.
Emperor Hongzhi commanded, "It's almost the New Year. There is a way of broken peace. Li Guang, you go to the Han general outside to get a golden melon. Smash this celadon pier."
Li Guang took the order and left, and after a while, he returned with a golden gourd.
He struck the celadon pier, only to hear a "boom", and the celadon pier was torn apart.
Everyone looked at each other. In a pile of broken porcelain pieces, there was a copper longevity lock and a bloodstained skirt.
When Emperor Hongzhi saw these two things, his feet were weak, one stumbled, and he almost fell! Fortunately, Empress Zhang's eyes were quick and she helped him.
After enduring open guns and hidden arrows in the palace for more than ten years, Emperor Hongzhi has long cultivated extraordinary courage.
But when he saw these two things, his face turned pale.
Empress Zhang asked, "Your Majesty, are you not feeling well?"
Emperor Hongzhi couldn't hold back any longer. He leaned down, picked up the longevity lock, and hugged the bloody skirt tightly in his arms.
Empress Zhang asked, "Your Majesty, what are these two things?"
Emperor Hongzhi said with a crying voice, "This longevity lock was made by my benefactor Zhang Min outside the palace when I was 100 days old. Lost in the East Palace five years ago. I've been looking for a long time, but I haven't found it." ap.
"This skirt is my biological mother, the Empress Dowager Ji, who liked to wear it the most when she was alive. Look at the blood stains on it, it must be the blood she shed when she was killed!"
Chang Feng and the others were heartbroken when they saw Emperor Hongzhi, and they didn't dare to come out.
Empress Zhang said angrily, "Wan Zhen'er really deserves to die! I murdered the Empress Dowager Ji and didn't say it. I also put the Empress Dowager Ji's skirt and the emperor's longevity lock into the celadon pier."
"Isn't this to put the emperor's life and the Empress Dowager's life under her ass forever?"
Li Guang was the first eunuch to be in charge of Empress Zhang after she entered the palace. A year has passed, and he has become Empress Zhang's confidant.
Li Guang hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the queen's mother, and the three brothers of the Wan family have now returned to Zhucheng County, Qingzhou Prefecture. Do you want to let the people of the Jinyi Guard go to Zhucheng......
Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand: "No. I have forgiven them. You don't have to joke."
Emperor Hongzhi looked at the skirt and became more and more sad: "I remember that on my fifth birthday, the queen mother used to wear this skirt, hugged me, and sang me a song of her hometown."
"A hundred thousand mountains are high and high, and I pinch the tongs around my waist. Which girl won't marry me?
Close the four doors and set the fire on fire!"
Emperor Hongzhi's song was full of sorrow.
When Chang Feng heard this song, he couldn't help but stand on end.
He secretly said in his heart: Empress Dowager Ji used to be the daughter of a rebel family in Guangxi. After the Battle of Broken Vine Cliff, she was taken prisoner into the palace as a palace maid.
The leader of the rebel bandits in Guangxi will also sing this bandit song.
Won't it ...... The leader of the rebels I killed with my own hands with the embroidered spring knife before is the mother's family of the Empress Dowager Ji, right?
Chang Feng didn't dare to think about it anymore. This thing, he will rot in his stomach forever.
Emperor Hongzhi realized that he had lost his temper in front of his courtiers.
He said to Empress Zhang, "You go out for a walk with me."
Turning his head, he instructed Chang Feng again: "Give you two more quarters of an hour to find the book in Kunning Palace." If you can't find it in two moments, forget it. You leave Kunning Palace. I'll find another way to get rid of mediocrity."
Chang Feng arched his hand: "Yes."
Chang Feng knew that even if he couldn't find Meishu, Emperor Hongzhi would not punish him.
However, this is an errand he did under the nose of Emperor Hongzhi. If it doesn't work out in the end, isn't it a face that is not exposed, and the ass is exposed?
He wanted too much to make great contributions to Emperor Hongzhi after the beginning of the new dynasty and prove his worth.
Moreover. found Meishu and drove Wan An away, not only for his own meritorious service. It's also for the sake of the world!
If you don't clean the big house of the court first, how can you clean the world?
There are two quarters left. Although it was the middle of winter, beads of sweat appeared on Chang Feng's head.
Empress Zhang accompanied Emperor Hongzhi and came to the palace alley for a walk.
As they walked, they looked up at the full moon on a winter night.
In the hands of Emperor Hongzhi, he tightly clutched the bloody skirt and the longevity lock.
Empress Zhang said, "Your Majesty, the concubines don't understand. Why didn't you kill the three brothers of the Wan family to avenge Empress Dowager Ji?"
Emperor Hongzhi said, "The queen mother died to protect me. Zhang Min died to protect me."
"I heard Huai En say that there are no less than dozens of eunuchs and palace maids in the palace who died to protect me."
"They protect me so that one day I can become the son of tomorrow! I did it."
"If they have spirits in heaven, they must look forward to being diligent in government, loving the people, and working hard to govern the country. Let everyone in the world live a peaceful life."
"Rather than revenge, they want to see the Ming Dynasty flourish under my rule."
"Be a wise man. You must learn to forgive. Wynne has a good saying, forgiveness takes more courage than revenge!"
Empress Zhang has always been a little woman. In the words of later generations, her pattern is not big enough.
Empress Zhang said, "The concubine still thinks so. It is only right for the son to take revenge on his mother."
Emperor Hongzhi stared at the bright moon in the sky and stopped talking.
In the East Warm Pavilion.
Little by little, the hours passed.
Seeing that the task personally ordered by Emperor Hongzhi was about to fail.
Chang Feng walked back and forth in the East Warm Pavilion, anxiously looking at what was missing.
Li Guangdao: "Chang Qianhu, don't look for it if you can't find it. We must not delay the emperor and queen going to bed."
Chang Feng turned his head and wanted to talk to Li Guang, but his footsteps did not stop.
Coldly, he hit the bookshelf opposite Qi Fengcouch.
Chang Feng rubbed his head and cursed secretly.
After a moment, his gaze rested on the bookshelf.
He asked Li Guang, "Are there bookshelves for books in the queens' bedrooms of the past dynasties?"
Li Guangdao: "It seems that there was no such rule before. Wan Zhen'er's dove occupied the magpie's nest, and after entering the Kunning Palace, he asked people to set up this bookshelf in the dormitory."
"Heh, her father used to be a county rafter official, in charge of playing boards. I'm afraid I can't recognize a basket of big characters. What kind of literacy and hyphenation daughter can you teach?"
"Wan Zhen'er is purely a pig demon holding a book, and she is too a student!"
