"Could Concubine Yun be Yao Xian's illegitimate daughter? Yao Xian had only one wife in his life, and she gave birth to three sons and one daughter. How could a man only marry one daughter-in-law? Since there is no one at home, she must be
The one he raised outside, Concubine Yun, might be his child born to a woman outside."
"Probably, otherwise, why would a royal concubine wear heavy mourning to mourn Yao Xian?"
This was a bit unpleasant to say, and the Yao family felt uncomfortable after hearing it. However, Concubine Yun was in Wanhe, and it was difficult for them to express their opinions on this matter. To be honest, they did not understand why Concubine Yun wanted to honor Yao Xian in such a grand way.
The funeral was held, but the Yao family absolutely did not believe the story of an illegitimate daughter. The Yao family had always refused to take concubines and women as concubines. Yao Xian was a role model for the whole family. He lived an upright life and it was absolutely impossible for him to have a woman outside.
and children.
Yao Jingjun looked at Concubine Yun, waiting for her to explain. Finally, Concubine Yun's steps stopped when people once again mentioned that "Yao Xian raised a woman outside." He cast a sharp look, and the concubine's momentum instantly
As soon as it came out, those who were gossiping were frightened and stepped back step by step, and everyone was trembling with fear.
Concubine Yun asked them very puzzledly: "Are you here to mourn, or are you here to cause trouble? You keep saying that you are indebted to Divine Doctor Yao, so why are you slandering him with such vicious words? I am grateful to Divine Doctor Yao for his great kindness.
, respect him as your foster father, and come to the funeral with great filial piety. Who gave you the courage to slander my foster father in front of me like this? Do you think I am easy to bully, or do you think the royal family is easy to bully? Or do you think the Yao family is easy to bully?
Honestly, can you tolerate your dirty words?"
Concubine Yun was angry, and all the people could feel the angry aura radiating from her body. Those who said something unpleasant immediately closed their eyes and stepped back, for fear of being recognized by Concubine Yun.
It's a pity that it's useless to hide. Concubine Yun has lived in Yuehan Palace for more than 20 years. She has never argued with the outside world, but not arguing does not mean cowardice. If you stay away from her, it's fine. If you provoke her,
She, the consequences are not something ordinary people can afford.
Just like now, when Yao Xian passed away, Concubine Yun was very sad, but someone happened to say bad things about Yao Xian at this juncture. How could she bear it?
But I heard Concubine Yun sigh: "I rarely go out. I didn't expect that outsiders have become so evil-minded. I have arranged to slander Yao Yao Yao. Where do you put the royal family?" The secret guard said coldly,
Immediately, several secret guards appeared beside her, led by Ban Zou, who was left by Feng Yuheng to protect her. "Did you see clearly the person who just talked nonsense?"
Ban Zou nodded, "I saw them all clearly, not a single one was left behind."
"Okay." Concubine Yun turned her head and stared at the crowd of common people, "cut off their tongues and threw them outside the city to feed the dogs."
With an order, the secret guards immediately took action. None of the people who had spoken evil words could run away. They were all arrested and their tongues were cut out in front of everyone, leaving the blood to flow freely. They were allowed to do whatever they wanted.
pain.
No one felt pity for them. The common people were even wondering where these people came from. It seemed that no one knew them. Those who came to bury Yao Xian today were all favored by the Yao family or Feng Yuheng.
It is absolutely impossible for a person to say such a thing. So people understood that it was not that Concubine Yun was too cruel, but that those people with good intentions arranged despicable behaviors. Their intentions were worthy of death, and Concubine Yun only cut off
Their tongues did not kill them, so it was considered good.
The funeral procession continued to move forward, and the people remembered that many years ago, when Concubine Yun first entered the palace, she was whipped and severely beaten by the concubines in the palace. It was said that the entire flesh on her back was almost rotten. It was Yao Xian who did it himself.
Only by applying the skin-changing magic can her skin be as smooth as before. So for Concubine Yun, Yao Xian is indeed a benefactor!
Concubine Yun was so angry that she publicly punished the person who said the evil words. No one raised any doubts about it. Even a group of princes who also came to mourn took the initiative to deal with her aftermath. Speaking of which, Concubine Yun had been the emperor's favorite for more than 20 years.
Most of the princes had no complaints about her, and even loved her. Although a large part of the reason for this was their deep brotherhood with Xuan Tianming, and part of it was also because although Concubine Yun had the unique
Emperor Tianwu dotes on her, but she does not bully other concubines. This is the case in the palace. Sooner or later, women will fall out of favor, especially women who have given birth to children. Their figures will be out of shape and their faces will grow old. Sooner or later, new people will replace them in the palace.
The emperor's status in the eyes of the emperor. And the palace concubines who lost their favor will face rounds of palace battles. Those women who are gaining favor will always try every means to remove other thorns in his side.
But Concubine Yun was different. She lived quietly by herself. She didn't talk to anyone, and she didn't let anyone talk to her. She didn't do bad things, and she wouldn't bully other concubines just because she was favored. This made all the princes worry.
Young Master. After all, with Concubine Yun's favor, even though she did not see Emperor Tianwu, just one word was enough for Emperor Tianwu to kick all the women in the palace away.
Yao Xian was buried, which attracted half the people in the capital. The funeral was finally completed before noon. When the tomb lid was closed, everyone in the Yao family felt their hearts sinking. Their father was gone just like that.
, Grandpa just disappeared, Yao Jingjun thought, when Yao Shu and Feng Yuheng return to the capital in the future, will he blame him for not taking good care of their grandfather?
The capital city of Dashun seemed infinitely desolate because of Yao Xian's death. At that time, the capital city of Zong Sui became panicked because of the loss of three cities in a row.
Especially the new emperor Li Jian, after seeing the sky thunder brought out by Duanmu Anguo, he thought that even if the battle with Dashun was not easy, it would not be a complete defeat. Dashun had thunder, but the opponent
They were in the light, and they were in the dark, which was a huge advantage. The reason why he decided to fall out with Dashun was because of the Tianlei in Duanmu Anguo's hands.
But ah! I never expected that Duanmu Anguo would be defeated so tragically, and the three cities of his Sui Dynasty would be lost so tragically. Some ministers said: "Your Majesty, Dashun massacred the city built by my Zong Sui Dynasty and blew it up."
The Tongcheng of our clan, Sui, sounds like the sworn enemy is being avenged by Dashun. However, as far as Wei Chen knows, Jiancheng was actually poisoned by Duanmu Anguo, and the whole city was poisoned by his poison.
And died. And those thunders that blew up Tongcheng also came from Duanmu Anguo. It can be said that our people died in the hands of Duanmu Anguo, and our city was also lost by Duanmu Anguo. Your Majesty! Why on earth?
My majestic Zong Sui was so harmed by Duanmu Anguo? Why on earth did you, Your Majesty, listen to Duanmu Anguo and completely break with Dashun?"
As soon as this was said, the other courtiers couldn't help it anymore and accused Duanmu Anguo one after another. Of course, the accusation against Duanmu Anguo was just a cover. In fact, they were dissatisfied with Li Jian, the new man who came to power through unfair means.
Emperor, the dragon chair had not even warmed up yet, but it had brought such a great disaster to Zong Sui. Everyone thought that Li Jian was not worthy of sitting on that dragon chair.
But what can they do if they are not happy? They are members of the royal family. In the final analysis, they are just slaves. It has nothing to do with whoever is in the master's family. They all have to obey orders. But now, if Ren Dashun continues to fight like this, Zong Sui
It's going to be over. Once Zong Sui is over, their family will be over, and they may even lose their lives. This has an absolute relationship with them.
Now that things have happened, people are willing to take risks. Some people bluntly accused Li Jian: "The emperor blindly listened to Duanmu Anguo's slander. Have you ever thought about Zong Sui's current fate? Please give an explanation to the people of Zong Sui."
Li Jian was furious, but had no way to refute. Duanmu Anguo was so embarrassed. He heard that the old guy was not dead. If he fell into his hands, he would cut him into pieces!
However, now that the matter has come to this point, all the accusations are so feeble. Li Jian knows that the only way to save his face in the court is to find a way to remedy the situation. He thought about it and finally placed his hope on the old general Chun Yuan.
.He wanted Chun Yuan to lead troops to Gancheng immediately, and the Dashun army must be blocked outside Gancheng to prevent further loss of Zong Sui's territory.
But Chun Yuan shook his head and said to him: "Since I lost my beloved daughter after being beaten, my health has been getting worse day by day. I even coughed up blood last night. Let alone leading troops, even when I came to court today, I was forced to do so."
Keep your spirits up. Your Majesty, the old minister is really unable to do anything. Please send your Majesty another wise general!"
"You..." Li Jian was so angry that Chun Yuan actually didn't go to fight. If he didn't go to fight, why would he be holding the title of general? He really wanted to take back all the military power in Chun Yuan's hands immediately, but what the hell was he?
The emperor has not yet sat on the throne. Those soldiers have no feelings for him. They are all loyal to Chun Yuan. If Chun Yuan takes the initiative to hand over this military power, he can still control those soldiers and horses. If he asks for it, he may not be able to control it.
People will listen to him.
Li Jian was very angry during the last morning court. Not only did all the courtiers openly accuse him, but Chun Yuan also refused to lead troops to the battlefield. Li Jian felt that the emperor was really a coward, and this coward was nothing but a coward.
Coming from Duanmu'an abroad, Chun Yuan's humiliation was also a big factor.
He had no place to vent his anger, and he did not dare to further anger the ministers in the court, so he could only take it out on the people around him after going to court. And the person around him was the first to bear the brunt of it, Queen Chunyu Qing.
The queen came from the Chunyu family and was the daughter of Chunyu An. Li Jian married her in order to gain the support of the Chunyu family. The Chunyu family did make a great contribution to his rise to power.
However, the two parties who were originally very close to each other gradually became estranged because of Duanmu Anguo's intervention and his decision to fall out with Dashun, so much so that they are now so estranged that Chunyu's family no longer takes orders from him, but they are still here.
There was open resistance in the court.
Li Jian was very shameless. After going to court, he rushed to the Queen's palace, pointed at Chunyu Qing's nose and cursed: "Don't think that I dare not destroy you, and don't think that with the protection of the Chunyu family, you can not let me go."
In my eyes, Chun Yuqing, believe it or not, I just need to say one word to throw you into the cold palace, and you will never see the light of day from now on!"
