Li Chenzhou said: "Uncle, you always see the things you should see and the things you don't want to see. You never look at it or care about it. You left me by the emperor's side. Do you know what happened that day?"
Li Mingfu's face was filled with guilt. He lowered his head and did not even dare to look into Li Chenzhou's eyes: "I...I don't know..." His voice was obviously weak.
Li Chenzhou sighed and said: "In order to save the Li family, you can be considered to have taken great pains, but if a person lives to the point like you, he would rather die!" He threw the seven-foot white silk at Li Mingfu's feet: "Xue Shengkang is dead.
The only person in the world who may expose this secret is you, and you know what you should do."
"Shen Zhou, I don't know anything!"
"I do not believe!"
"Shen Zhou, I am your uncle!" Li Mingfu's voice was full of fear.
Li Chenzhou looked at Li Mingfu with a smile and said: "Don't you always want to sacrifice for the Li family? I will help you! By the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you, my father, he is still alive!"
When Jian Rongxin woke up, she found herself lying on the bed. She sat up and first checked her clothes. When she saw that her clothes were intact, she breathed a sigh of relief. But then she thought of her father who died tragically and couldn't help but
Sobbing softly, she got off the bed and wanted to look for her father. Her feet fell on the ground as if they were stepping on cotton. She felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground. She hurriedly held the edge of the bed with her hands and sat down again.
There was a gentle knock on the door. Jian Rongxin calmed down her emotions and said softly: "Come in!" At this moment, she realized that her voice was extremely hoarse.
Hu Xiaotian pushed the door open and walked in, holding a bowl of soup in his hand. Seeing that Jian Rongxin had woken up, he smiled at her and said, "Are you awake?"
Jian Rongxin looked at him warily. The face of this man was completely different from the one who helped her last night. Moreover, she had met Hu Xiaotian before and recognized his identity at a glance. Of course she didn't know that Hu Xiaotian passed by Yi Yi yesterday.
Rong, now appeared in front of her with his true face. Jian Rongxin said, "Are you Hu Xiaotian?" Although she recognized him, Jian Rongxin still needed to confirm his identity.
Hu Xiaotian didn't hide anything. He said softly: "Mrs. Li, this is Hu Xiaotian."
Jian Rongxin's eyebrows were slightly furrowed. She was not an ordinary woman. Although she suffered a tragedy in her family last night, it had already happened. No matter how sad she was, it would not help. Now her plan must be to understand her own situation and understand what happened.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Mrs. Li, drink the medicine first. Let me explain it to you slowly."
Jian Rong wanted to refuse, but when the words came to her lips, she changed her mind. She was obviously seriously ill. If she died of the illness, she was afraid that her family's injustice would never be redressed. She picked up the medicine bowl and drank it silently, emptying it.
Putting the bowl aside, he whispered: "Thank you, but what happened last night?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "To be honest with Mrs. Li, I happened to be drinking at a wine shop last night. I saw her leaving the Jingguo Palace alone, so I was curious and followed her..."
Jian Rongxin interrupted Hu Xiaotian and asked, "What happened last night?"
Hu Xiaotian saw her sad and suspicious eyes, and suddenly understood in his heart that Jian Rongxin must have suspected that the tragedy at home was related to him. He said softly: "I don't know the specific things, but there were several things that happened in Yongdu last night.
This was a major event. The Empress Dowager was dissatisfied with what Xue Daohong had done since he ascended the throne, so she conspired with some ministers to replace him with Prince Ming. Somehow, the news leaked out, and Xue Daohong planned to kill the Empress Dowager in order to keep the throne, and also killed the Empress Dowager.
Remove some of the veterans involved in this matter, including Zunfu."
Jian Rongxin's eyes turned red when she heard this. She covered her lips to prevent herself from crying.
Hu Xiaotian continued: "It is said that King Yan learned the truth and intended to use this matter to blackmail Xue Daohong and take advantage of the chaos to seize the imperial power. At the critical moment, fortunately, Li Chenzhou stepped forward. He joined hands with the eldest princess and a group of ministers to quell the rebellion, and even produced the former emperor's edict.
, elected Ming King Xue Daoming to regain the throne, but Xue Daohong committed suicide because the incident was exposed. As for Yan King Xue Shengjing, he also failed to seize the throne and fled in panic. The whole city is currently searching for his whereabouts. "
Jian Rongxin suddenly remembered Li Chenzhou's behavior last night. She began to gradually understand that everything was no accident. The husband she had always trusted was so vicious. He had always been Xue Daohong's confidant, but why did he suddenly switch sides and now join forces with the eldest princess Xue Lingjun?
Jointly support Xue Daoming to rise to power. He was so heartless last night that he didn't care about his own life or death. His father's death may have something to do with him. Thinking of this, Jian Rong burst into tears.
Hu Xiaotian saw that her mood was out of control again, and he didn't know how to persuade her. He picked up the medicine bowl and quietly exited the door.
When they came outside, they saw Zhan Peng and An Zhai waiting there. When they saw Hu Xiaotian coming out, they greeted him at the same time. Hu Xiaotian pointed to the room opposite. Although the snow was lighter, the weather was getting worse.
It's cold.
The three of them came to the room, and An Zhai said: "Sure enough, something big happened in the imperial city. It has been verified that Xue Daoming has indeed become the Emperor of Yong Dynasty. It is also said that Xue Shengkang once left a will, and the successor designated in the will was Xue Daoming."
, not Xue Daohong, but because the Empress Dowager Jiang favored Xue Daohong as her grandson, she hid the real edict and forged an edict to help Xue Daohong ascend to the throne."
Zhan Peng sighed: "The affairs of the Yong royal family are really bloody. They are even more ridiculous than those of Dakang."
Hu Xiaotian chuckled and said: "The royal family has always been so ridiculous. Only we can't imagine it. Without them, we can't do it." He pondered for a while and said: "Last night, I still couldn't understand why Xue Lingjun would be alone.
After leaving the Jingguo Palace alone, I finally understand that the relationship between her and Li Chenzhou is far from the loving and harmonious relationship it seems on the surface."
Zhan Peng said: "Did Li Chenzhou kill Jian Xihe?"
Hu Xiaotian nodded. Judging from the current situation, it is very likely that he underestimated Li Chenzhou after all. He had always believed that Li Chenzhou was extremely loyal to Xue Daohong and was willing to be Xue Daohong's pawn, but now it seems that Xue Daohong is just a pawn.
It was just used by Li Chenzhou. Now Xue Daohong has either completed his mission or has become an obstacle to Li Chenzhou's progress, so Li Chenzhou decisively eradicated him.
Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but think of the incident where the eldest princess Xue Lingjun used the lives of Liu Changsheng and his son as a threat to force him to kill Jian Rongxin for her. This was not accidental. Could it be that there had been an affair between Xue Lingjun and Li Chenzhou for a long time, so Xue Lingjun fell in love with her?
Hate, and then have the idea of getting rid of Jian Rongxin? If Xue Lingjun and Li Chenzhou join forces, the two of them can indeed run rampant in Dayong, and their strength is enough to compete with anyone.
Even if Xue Daoming is pushed to the throne, he can only be a puppet.
An Zhai said: "By the way, many people died last night. In addition to the great scholar Jian Xihe, the Duke of Jing, Li Mingfu, and Concubine Dong Shu also died. It is said that they were killed by Xue Daohong."
Hu Xiaotian became more and more confused when he heard the news of the death of Jingguo Duke Li Mingfu. In his opinion, everyone's death was inseparable from Li Chenzhou. Killing other people was easy to explain, but Jingguo Duke Li Mingfu was his.
Uncle, why did he kill his own uncle? Or did Li Mingfu's death have nothing to do with him? It was the result of revenge from his enemies? I'm afraid only a few people can solve this mystery. The eldest princess Xue Lingjun should know the inside story.
, Li Chenzhou is also one of them. If these two people collude, they will definitely not tell him what happened. King Yan Xue Shengjing should also know the inside story, but his life or death is uncertain now, and it is difficult to find his whereabouts in the vast sea of people.
An Zhai said: "Young Master, it's best to stay in seclusion for these two days. It's very safe here. Just don't worry, Young Master."
Zhan Peng said: "There are many rumors from the outside world, and some say that King Yan and the lord secretly joined forces to overthrow Dayong."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "We didn't join forces in the past, but now it's very possible."
An Zhai sighed and said: "Li Chenzhou has made great achievements in protecting the country this time, and his power has increased to a higher level. Shangguan Tianhuo and his son have his blessing. I'm afraid it will be even harder to touch them."
Hu Xiaotian said: "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. The current dilemma is only temporary. An Zhai, go and find out the latest situation." He then said to Zhan Peng: "Zhan Peng, you stay to protect Jian Rongxin.
"
Zhan Peng heard that he wanted to go out and asked with concern: "Master, wouldn't you want to go out at this time?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "With such a big thing happening, how can I stay here with peace of mind? You don't have to worry about me. Even if I encounter any trouble, I can get away safely."
An Zhai said: "Actually, you don't have to do it yourself. You can just leave the matter of asking for information to me."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "It's not that I can't trust you. Although Brother An is well informed, there is something that I must do personally."
Both of them looked at Hu Xiaotian with confusion, but they didn't know what things he had to do personally? Couldn't others do it for him?
Hu Xiaotian said: "Maybe only I can find Xue Shengjing!"
The heavy snow in Yongdu fell all day and all night, and it was already knee-deep. Many people spontaneously came out to clear the snow in the streets and alleys. In the past, they would have gathered in groups to discuss recent events.
But the atmosphere today is a little different. Everyone is lowering their heads to clear the snow. Even if they meet acquaintances, they exchange glances with each other. No one dares to speak actively. From time to time, heavily armed Golden Scale Guards pass by on the street. The whole city is under martial law.
, arrest King Xue Shengjing of Yan and the rest of the party.
The common people did not know what happened in the palace, but there were rumors that the old queen mother died, Concubine Shu died, the emperor died, and the new emperor ascended the throne. So many things happened in one night, each of them was earth-shattering.
These are major events that ordinary people would not dare to discuss.
