Chapter 806 Tang Shui's life experience [Also 15/23]
Today's lotus roots were obviously too jealous. None of Tang Ning and the other three people made any move. Princess Anyang ate all the lotus roots on the plate.
If you are ugly, you should eat more lotus roots. Although Princess Anyang is not ugly, she also needs to eat more.
Lotus root is cold in nature and has the effect of clearing away heat and relieving annoyances. Obviously, Princess Anyang needs to get rid of the heat. She may not be so angry next time she sees him.
After finishing the meal, Tang Shui and Princess Anyang stayed for a while before leaving. Tang Ning thought of something and looked at Tang Yu and asked, "Mom, there are rumors that Prince Fu was a famous handsome man in the capital when he was young.
Is it true?"
"This is not a rumor." Tang Yu shook her head and said: "When Prince Fu was young, he was known as the "most handsome man in the capital." At that time, even though he was a romantic man, there were many women from high-ranking families who wanted to marry him.
he."
Tang Ning was surprised and said: "Prince Fu, are you a romantic?"
Compared to the fact that Prince Fu was the most handsome man in the capital, Tang Ning found the latter even more unbelievable to him.
After all, time is like pig feed. In the past, girls’ dream men also sometimes gained weight in middle age.
King Fu was not the only one who regarded appearance as dirt. Thousands of years later, on the other side of the distant Pacific Ocean, there was another man named Li.
However, appearance is easy to change, but nature is hard to change.
Tang Ning has seen honest people who have fallen, but rarely seen prodigal sons who turn around.
Everyone in Beijing knew that Marquis Dingguo and Prince Huai doted on their wives, while Prince Fu was afraid of his wife. Tang Ning thought that Prince Fu's character was innate, but she didn't expect that he had such a past.
What happened to the once romantic prodigal son that turned him into a strict wife who loved only one person?
Tang Yu didn't know why the prodigal son turned back after Prince Fu, and why he changed from the most handsome man in the capital to the greasy uncle he is now. Tang Yu had no idea, and Tang Ning had no way of knowing.
The reason why he was curious about Prince Fu was of course not because of Princess Anyang or any other reason. It was just that Prince Fu gave him a strange feeling.
On the day of King Kang's rebellion, the powerful officials were panic-stricken. King Duan was frightened into a dog, and even Emperor Chen was so frightened. But King Fu remained calm from beginning to end, as if he was not worried at all that King Kang would kill him if his rebellion succeeded.
.
Either he was not afraid of death at all, or he knew that King Kang would not succeed. As for which reason, Tang Ning did not know.
If it's the former, Tang Ning respects him as a fat man with backbone. If it's the latter, where does his confidence come from?
His curiosity about King Fu ended here, because besides that, he had to be busy with other things.
Only one day later, Song Yi, the Minister of Punishment, sent someone a bag of files about the events of that year.
There is a wanted poster in the file, which depicts Tang Yu in her youth.
This is enough to prove that Emperor Chen was involved in what happened back then. Without his permission, the Tang family would not have the ability to post wanted notices all over the Chen Kingdom.
There should have been two wanted notices, but the Criminal Department only kept one. It was unknown whether it was the Punishment Department's negligence or other reasons, which made Tangning a little disappointed.
He actually wanted to see what his father in this world looked like.
A coincidence may happen once, and it may happen a second time. This is something he has been looking forward to for a long time. He looks forward to the regrets and shortcomings in another world being fulfilled in this world.
However, it only says mother, but there is no information about that person. This is obviously abnormal. It was deliberately done by the Tang family to cover up their ugliness.
Apart from this, other details are written in great detail in this dossier.
After the two of them eloped, the imperial court issued a sea arrest document. It took a long time to find them in Lingzhou and bring Miss Tang back. However, the Jiangnan scholar was not mentioned.
Tang Shui was brought back with him at that time. When Tang Ning checked the files, he also discovered something that he didn't know before.
At that time, they did not elope as two people, but with the help of some people, they were able to escape from the capital to Lingzhou.
The identities of those people were also revealed. They were the envoys sent by Xiaowan to the Chen State. At that time, the relationship between Xiaowan and the Chen State was not so tense. To be precise, the Western Region was surrendered to the Chen State.
Why the envoy from the Western Regions helped them was not mentioned, and Tang Ning could not guess. However, judging from the lines of these files, the envoy from Xiaowan at that time must have had something extremely unpleasant happen with the Chen government or the Tang family.
After that, Xiaowan continued to pay tribute to Chen State every year, but two or three years ago, it suddenly expanded its power and included one-third of the Western Regions. At the same time, it also completely fell out with Chen State, and now it has become
He became Chen Guo’s number one enemy.
Tang Ning didn't know if the current situation between Chen Guo and Xiaowan had anything to do with this incident back then, but one thing was certain. Tang Shui did have blood from the Western Regions. Judging from her appearance, one of her parents should be
Han Chinese, one is from Xiaowan.
She could get the answer to this matter from her mother, but Tangning rarely asked her about what happened back then, in order to prevent her from thinking of those not-so-good memories from the past.
Huang Chen was also involved in what happened back then. From his perspective, Tangning could understand his actions, but she still felt uncomfortable in her heart.
It wasn't until he thought of Zhao Man that he suppressed some of his emotions.
…
In the palace, Emperor Chen did not read the book in the imperial study room, but returned to his bedroom.
It was extremely difficult for him to fall asleep at night, and he was haunted by nightmares every night, so he would take a nap during the day to replenish his energy.
When he slept, he had to light soothing incense. A palace maid walked in slowly and lit the incense burner.
No one noticed that when she lit the incense burner, a pinch of white powder between her fingers fell gently into the incense burner.
…
The capital, above the streets.
Tang Shui and Princess Anyang did not ride in the carriage, but walked side by side.
Princess Anyang looked thoughtful. After a moment, she turned to look at Tang Shui and asked, "Did he just call me ugly?"
Tang Shui asked: "When?"
"He asked me to eat lotus root." Princess Anyang said, "Eat lotus root, eat lotus root. Eating lotus root together means being ugly. Was he just hinting that I was ugly?"
"How is that possible..." Tang Shui shook his head and said, "Stop thinking nonsense."
"This must be what he means!" Princess Anyang gritted her teeth and said, "He'd better pray that he doesn't fall into my hands, otherwise I will make him know how powerful I, Anyang..."
Tang Shui shook his head helplessly, changed the topic and said, "I plan to go to the Western Regions next year."
Princess Anyang looked at her and asked in surprise: "Why are you going to the Western Regions?"
Tang Shuidao: "Let's take a walk and take a look. My sister-in-law said that my hometown is in the Western Regions. I want to see what it is like there."
Princess Anyang said: "I heard that the climate there is hot and the wind and sand are strong. Do you really want to go?"
Tang Shui looked at her and asked, "Do you want to go with me? What's the point of always being in the capital?"
"I'm not going." Princess Anyang shook her head decisively and said, "I don't want to be turned into a yellow-faced woman by the wind and sand there..."
While the two were walking down the street chatting, an angry shout came from the front.
"Speak, are you all mute? If you don't speak, how will the guests know if you are mute?"
"You dare to stare at me. If you still can't sell it today, I will dig out your eyes and make you beggar on the street!"
…
Tang Shui and Princess Anyang looked up and saw more than ten figures somewhere on the street corner.
One of them was holding a whip and was beating the others continuously.
Those squatting on the ground and being whipped had tall noses and deep facial features, which looked different from those of Chen Guoren.
The man cursed, raised his whip, and was about to whip it when he noticed a resistance coming from behind.
He turned his head and found that the head of the whip was held in the hand of a young woman.
