Chapter 232: People Are Always Selfish
Bang!
Thundered!
A thunderbolt fell from the sky and landed with a loud noise, shocking people's faces pale.
"No, it can't ......" Concubine Qin couldn't believe it, but the last missing block had already taken shape in her mind.
She is just making a final effort, trying to cover up the ugliness and greed of human nature for others.
And those things have a unified name.
Named: Desire.

Hao Yu asked: "Your father was also present that day, in addition to the ins and outs of the whole thing, do you also know what happened on the side?" β
Concubine Qin shook her head.
"Therefore, no one knows what the emperor and Meng Taishi have said, and the three conditions promised are even more unknown."
"People are always selfish."
"But the man is dead!" Concubine Qin's mood changed suddenly, and she said excitedly: "How can the Meng family's family style take advantage of ......!" β
"What if his death was more meaningful than his life?"
γDing! Qin Concubine thinks you are ruthless, Opinion -50, Current Opinion: 21. γ
Listening to the prompt sound in his head, Hao Yu's face was as usual.
didn't show half a point of surprise and displeasure because of her greatly reduced favorability.
She sat on the chair and gently cut off Concubine Qin's words, "Although Meng Sanlang died, he was a member of the Meng family before and after his death, and the Meng family gave him life, and he also prayed for justice for him after death." β
"The Meng family is benevolent and righteous for him, and as long as he suffers some grievances, he can push the glory of the entire family to a higher prosperity."
"This is the greatest value brought by Meng Sanlang's death."
Hao Yu lowered his eyes, covering the mockery in his eyes.
Qin Concubine's complexion changed greatly, and her whole person trembled as if her soul was trembling.
Those things that don't want to see clearly, are clear in an instant.
Can......
"That's their relatives, if it's really as you said, then how pitiful should Meng Saburo be?" Concubine Qin's throat choked, "That's their own son, their own grandson, but they step on the blood of their loved ones to seek wealth?" β
She still can't believe it.
Hao Yu sighed lightly, filled her with tea, put it in front of her, and whispered with relief, "Of course, all this is my speculation, and without evidence, it can only be speculation." β
"But you have to believe that human nature cannot be tempted."
"Human nature is sometimes so twisted and terrifying."
Concubine Qin's fingertips trembled, holding the teacup in both hands, and looked up at her.
Outside the house, there was thunder and rain, and the rain beat against the window lattice, making a crackling sound.
The day, which had been very ordinary, was shrouded in thunder and rain, and the hall was gloomy.
And she sat in the shadows, speaking quietly, like a ghost from another world telling the truth that had been hidden for many years.
Her ethereal, distant voice replaced the thunder, pulling her into another, darker dream, so that she could not struggle even if she wanted to.
Over and over again, I felt death, calculation, abandonment, and betrayal.
One is a young genius who is not stained with dust, and the other is a royal princess who is notorious and full of crimes.
β¦β¦
"Just now, you asked me what the reason would be if the Meng family knew the truth but withheld it, I can tell you my guess now."
"Meng Saburo died of ambition and was buried in interests."
"Presumably, the second room of the Meng family's big house joined forces for the position of the head of the family to get rid of the two sons of the third room, but there was an accident on the day of the incident, and only Meng Sanlang died."
"Among them, I have to talk about the role played by the Wei family."
"My guess is more inclined to the Wei family didn't know where to know about this matter, so they planned it and pushed the boat down the river, which contributed to the occurrence of this series of things, but in the end, they spared the life of Prince Meng."
"It's not to save people, but to take advantage of this to cause infighting in the Meng family."
"In order to consolidate the throne of Empress Wei."
"And the reason why the Meng family can't bear it is also because of the back position."
Hao Yu looked at Xu Qin, and a dim candlelight was lit in the hall, half illuminating her face and half disappearing in the darkness.
It's like the truth that's half clear, half confused.
After all, there will be a day when we will meet the light again.
Hao Yu's face was the same, he looked at Xu Qin calmly, and his low voice hovered in the hall.
"Meng Nanyan is now the highest-ranking concubine except for the queen, and as soon as the Wei family falls, she will naturally become the successor."
"And she needs a reason to be the successor."
"There is also a reason for the fall of Empress Wei."
"And Meng Saburo's death is the best reason."
Speaking of which, even Hao Yu himself couldn't help but shiver.
Who would have thought that the glory of a noble family would be built on the body of a dead man.
"In order to get ahead, the second room of the Meng family's big house is unscrupulous, and Mrs. Meng thinks that in the name of eradicating traitors and evil ministers for the emperor, she can push her own granddaughter to sit on the throne of the queen, and she can do everything."
"The second room of the Meng family's big house is stained with blood for the sake of future status, and Master Meng sacrifices his relatives for the prosperity of the family, which is just as terrifying."
"In my opinion, the second room of the big house is hateful, but Master Meng took advantage of Meng Sanlang's death to force him to 'cut his shares to heal his relatives' after his death, which made me feel extremely frightened and creepy."
After listening to it, Concubine Qin couldn't say half a word.
This head-on blow made her even more overwhelmed.
The sky in early autumn is obviously not cold, but she feels that this palace is not ...... It was under her feet, every inch of the land in this shengdu, that made her cold to the bone.
"What if...... As you want, what role does Concubine Meng Xian play in it? β
Xu Qin looked at Hao Yu for a moment and asked, "Does she know anything, or does she know ......nothing?"
Meng Huai'an is her own brother, if she knows everything, but she still chooses to hide it, just so that one day the East Window incident will happen, so that she can successfully ascend to the back position?
What's the difference between this and steamed buns stained with human blood?!
Concubine Qin was shocked to find that her body was cold and she couldn't help chilling.
Hao Yu looked at her and didn't say anything.
[Qin Concubine's favor +20, current favorability 41.] γ
Seeing her favor on her head rise, Hao Yu knew that she probably believed this guess.
Faith is faith, but I can't accept it yet.
Listening to her whispering: "I thought that my family and my family were the same, I was born in the palace, and my father only had a daughter like me, and the palace regarded me as a treasure, and never let me be wronged, even if I was wronged, I would never let it have a chance to spend the night." β
