Feng Yu pursed her lips and frowned, "Well, as long as you answer me without telling a lie, I can make your later years here better and more beautiful. Murong Ji, no matter what, you are still the same as before.
The majestic Queen Mother, Cang Yueli is still sitting in the position of 'Emperor', you don't want to be known like this, right? Can you really endure this life like a cold palace?"
Murong Ji couldn't help but tremble before she reacted. Living like a cold palace, her days were like years, and life was worse than death.
Feng Yu saw Murong Ji's slight trembling in her eyes, and she finally reacted, "Murong Ji, you only have this one chance."
"...Okay, you can ask whatever you want to ask. But before you ask, you must first explain why you suddenly asked about Prime Minister Tao?" Murong Ji finally spoke. However, even if he has reached this point, he still has to ask.
She has to put on airs and save face, and calls herself "Aijia". It seems that she is still the same aloof Queen Mother as before.
"I am currently investigating an incident related to that year, which concerns Prime Minister Tao, so I came here to ask."
"What happened back then? What happened?"
"You don't need to know this. Okay, can we talk about it?"
"Okay, you can ask. What do you want to know? As long as the Aijia knows it and hasn't forgotten it, the Aijia can answer you." At this point, compared to Shangguan Feihong, Murong Ji obviously knows more.
Feng Yu immediately jumped into the topic and asked, "I heard that the old emperor wanted to cut down the vassalage. Do you know about this?"
"Removing the vassal state? How is it possible! Who did you listen to? That's nonsense. If he wanted to remove the vassal state, why would he have personally consecrated so many vassal kings in the first place?" Murong Ji smiled, as if he had heard some funny joke.
Feng Yu was startled, Murong Ji didn't know anything about this?
Intuitively, Feng Yu thought it was impossible! However, Murong Ji didn't seem to be lying. Could it be that she really didn't know?
"Well, let me ask you a second question. Does the old emperor often summon Tao Xiang in private?"
"Yes. Tao Xiang is very loyal to him. He has always valued Tao Xiang."
"When the old emperor summoned Prime Minister Tao in private, was there anyone present? What did they often talk about in private?" Feng Yu continued to ask.
"No one can answer you about this. When they meet, there is usually no one around, especially when they are talking about big things." Moreover, sometimes, even she has to avoid them. Murong Ji still has to do this to this day.
Remember it clearly.
"Let me ask you again. Back then, you were deeply loved by the old emperor as soon as you entered the palace. You were the most favored in the harem, and no one could match you. After that, you almost rose through the ranks and was promoted to the queen step by step. Cang Jingtian was the only one you gave birth to.
My son was named 'Prince' as soon as he was born. The old emperor's love and respect for your mother and son are unprecedented. However, a few years before Cang Jingtian ascended the throne as emperor, why did the old emperor suddenly neglect Cang Jingtian?
When Shangguan Feihong first met Cang Jingtian, it was when Cang Jingtian, the prince, was being ignored. For Cang Jingtian, Shangguan Feihong did not hesitate to agree to marry the old emperor and Tao Xiang into Prince Xin's Mansion and work for them.
, the only condition is that the old emperor must re-appoint the crown prince Cang Jingtian, and Tao Xiang must assist Cang Jingtian. Later, the old emperor died and Cang Jingtian ascended the throne as emperor.
