The incident that spread throughout Daliang a few days ago, "Sima Song, the Marquis of Quliang, was executed all over his family" was actually ordered by Empress Wang?!
"How is this possible?!"
The eldest prince Zhao Hongli looked at Queen Wang in disbelief.
Compared to Prince Zhao Hongli, King Yong Hongyu was even more shocked and turned to look at Queen Wang.
However, Queen Wang said nothing.
"Does the Queen want to deny it?" King Xiang Hongjing shook his head and said with a smile: "A few days ago, a imperial guard was transferred out of the palace for no reason. So far, not many people have returned to the palace. These people must have been killed.
He is the real murderer of Sima Song, the Marquis of Quliang, right?"
Hearing this, the guards outside the palace couldn't help but started talking in low voices.
After all, the guards in the palace have a lot of contact with each other on weekdays, so they naturally know a lot about their colleagues. They actually know that one of the patrol guards was suddenly transferred out a while ago, just as Xiang Wang Hongjing said,
It has not been returned yet.
"Silence!" Jin Ju, the commander of the imperial guards, shouted.
Beside him, Zhao Hongrun's expression was inevitably a little strange, because he felt that the double crows under his hands seemed to have inadvertently deceived Queen Wang - if it weren't for the black crows stationed in Xiaohuang who killed nearly
Two hundred and fifty patrolling guards made it more difficult for Queen Wang and the eunuch Feng Lu to cover up the matter. How could Xiang Wang Hongjing trace Queen Wang so easily?
"Queen mother?"
The eldest prince, Zhao Hongli, looked at Queen Wang dumbfounded, his face uncertain for a while.
He originally thought it was just his bad luck. When he was planning to accuse King Yong of "Yong Wang Hongyu secretly communicated with Quliang Hou Sima Song", it happened that Quliang Hou Sima Song was killed and silenced - he had also suspected that it was
King Yong Hongyu, but he never imagined that the person who ordered the death of Sima Song, Marquis of Quliang, would be his mother, Queen Wang.
Just like what Zhao Hongjing said just now: Why?!
He couldn't help but ask: "Queen Mother, that Quliang Marquis Sima Song is really you..."
Queen Wang sighed secretly. Originally, if there had never been a conflict between the "Inspection Guards" and "King Su's Double Crows", she could have covered it up. After all, as long as those inspection guards would not be hacked in Xiaohuang
The crowd of crows were killed and they could return to the palace early. Not to mention that King Xiang Hongjing might not be able to trace anything. Even if he traced it to the patrolling guards, I believe those patrolling guards would never dare to reveal the truth.
It's a pity that more than two hundred of the patrolling guards were killed by the Black Crows. These two hundred or so guards who had palace registrations in the palace disappeared inexplicably and did not return for a long time. Anyone who is interested can come back even if they want to.
I can detect one or two.
Seeing the unbelievable look in Zhao Hongli's son's eyes, Queen Wang felt soft in her heart and sighed: "Yu'er, Sima Song, the Marquis of Quliang, is Xiao Ni's man... The secret letter you got is Xiao Ni's."
The purpose of killing two birds with one stone is to overthrow King Qing Hongxin and King Yong Hongyu..."
"Sima Song, the Marquis of Quliang, is actually Xiao Ni's man?!"
When King Yong Hongyu heard Queen Wang's explanation, he was also shocked and stunned.
At this moment, he finally suddenly realized: No wonder Sima Song, the Marquis of Quliang, was good at making opinions and incited Pingcheng Marquis Li Yang and several other nobles to massacre Jinxiang County.
When he thought that Xiao Ni was behind the scenes when he defeated Qing Wang Hongxin, Yong Wang Hongyu's previous excitement and pride about this matter disappeared without a trace.
Before everyone could react, King Xiang Hongjing put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "Queen Wang is really eloquent... Well, since Sima Song, the Marquis of Quliang, is a traitor to Xiao Ni, so it is understandable that Queen Wang ordered his execution.
...So, after the incident at the Beiyi Army Camp, the letter that Xiao Wang sent to Queen Wang was written by King Yong himself and given to the late "Cui Xie", the general of the old Beiyi Army...
"After that, he saw Yong Wang Hongyu looking at him with a surprised and angry face. He smiled and said: "That's right, I thought about being an oriole back then, so I told Liu Yi early to leave what you wrote in your own hand.
That letter serves as a handle."
Having said this, he turned to look at Queen Wang and said with a half-smile: "I just didn't expect that when I sent someone to deliver this letter to Queen Wang, Queen Wang concealed it for me..."
"..." Upon hearing this, Yongwang Hongyu subconsciously turned his head to look at Queen Wang, with a strange expression on his face.
If we say that the murder of Sima Song, Marquis of Quliang, cannot be completely interpreted to mean that Queen Wang was secretly helping him, but in the case of Beiyi Military Camp Xiao, it could be that Queen Wang was deliberately protecting him. Otherwise, based on the situation at that time,
Due to the situation, even Zhao Hongli, who was still the crown prince of the East Palace at that time, was framed by him and had to resign as the crown prince and impose a one-year self-imposed ban as punishment. Then what should he, Zhao Hongyu, the mastermind behind the Beiyi Military Camp Xiao, do?
What kind of punishment will be received?
It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Empress Wang had produced that fatal letter, Zhao Hongjing would have been sent to Yangdi lightly.
However, Empress Wang did not do that. She would rather let her son Zhao Hongli bear the responsibility of Beiyi Military Camp and lose his position as the crown prince of the East Palace, instead of taking out the letter.
Compared with the shock of King Yong Hongyu, the one who was most stimulated was the eldest prince Zhao Hongli.
You must know that the Beiyi Military Camp Xiao incident was a turning point in Zhao Hongli's life: before this incident, he was the noble Prince of the East Palace, and he would definitely inherit the throne in time; and after this incident, he became
The deposed prince who was ignored by no one is now struggling in front of the powerful Yong Wang Hongyu.
"Mother, he..." Zhao Hongli looked at Queen Wang uncertainly, and asked in anxiety and shock: "What Zhao Hongjing said can't be true, right, queen?"
Queen Wang opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongli seemed to have been struck by lightning. He couldn't help but take two steps back and looked at Queen Wang in disbelief: "Why, Queen Mother?"
"Because you are not her biological flesh and blood at all." Zhao Hongjing said with a smile.
"What did you say?!" Zhao Hongli looked like an enraged beast, glaring at Zhao Hongjing.
But Zhao Hongjing pointed at Yongwang Hongyu and said with a smile: "I mean, Zhao Hongyu is the biological son of Queen Wang!" After that, he glanced at Queen Wang and asked with a smile: "Is that right, Queen Wang?
?”
Before Queen Wang could speak, Concubine Shi, who had been in a state of shock, screamed: "Hongyu is my own flesh and blood!"
"Unfortunately, this is not the case." King Xiang Hongjing glanced at Concubine Shi and said regretfully: "Zhao Hongyu is the biological flesh and blood of the Queen. Your son is the Zhao Hongli over there whom you have always wanted to pull down from the position of Prince of the East Palace.
...In other words, you made your biological son lose his position as the crown prince of the East Palace, and let Queen Wang's biological son Zhao Hongjing become the main force to seize the throne... So, do you understand? If you don't believe me, ask Queen Wang.
?”
After hearing this, Concubine Shi looked at Queen Wang with a distorted expression, and said in a hateful voice: "Wang Quan, he is just talking nonsense, isn't he? The reason why you show kindness to my son is just because the son you gave birth to is useless, isn't it?
"
Queen Wang looked at Concubine Shi inexplicably. At this time, Zhao Hongjing smiled and said: "Queen Wang, it is not easy for Xiao Wang to create an opportunity for you to recognize mother and son. Please cherish it." After that, he
Sun smiled and ordered Liang Xu, the chief of the clan guard, to hand over the package that someone had left in his carriage a few days ago and threw it on the ground.
On the top, he said with a half-smile: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether you admit it or not. The diary in the package clearly records... When Zhao Hongyu was born, he weighed only four pounds and six taels. He was weak and almost died.
But his biological mother, Concubine Shi, had been taken into Prince Jing's Mansion by his father as a concubine, and had people taking care of her food and clothing.
Gu, logically speaking, would not give birth to such a weak baby, so who does this baby belong to? It can only be yours... because you were sent to your father as the former Prince of the East Palace, Zhao Miao, to monitor his every move.
Female officer, but you are secretly pregnant with your father. You are afraid of arousing suspicion in the East Palace, so you dare not take supplements.
Wearing loose clothes to cover up, you are pregnant but go back and forth between the East Palace and Prince Jing's Mansion every day. But after working so hard, you gave birth to a baby weighing eight pounds and four taels. Hahaha, this is not right no matter how you think about it.
Ah." "Author's words: Damn it, the ages of these two were calculated wrong, and it's so troublesome to round them up now!!!"
Looking at Yong Wang Hongyu with a shocked face, and then looking at Zhao Hongli with an equally shocked face, Concubine Shi picked up the package on the ground and took out the records in the classics. The more she looked at it, the uglier her face became.
For a while, she stared at the Queen with eyes filled with endless hatred.
Seeing this, Queen Wang sighed quietly and murmured: "Shi Hui, it was you who forced me... If you had never thought of using medicine to harm my flesh and blood, how could I have done that?"
"Bitch!" Concubine Shi was shocked and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Yong Wang Hongyu had quick eyesight and quick hands to hold her on.
But what he didn't expect was that Concubine Shi pushed Yong Wang Hongyu away.
"Mother Concubine..." A look of disbelief appeared on Yong Wang Hongyu's face. He simply couldn't believe that the mother in front of him, who had loved him since childhood despite having many shortcomings, would one day push him away like this.
.
"Mother concubine?" Looking at Yong Wang Hongyu's shocked face, Concubine Shi laughed. It was so funny that it turned out to be uglier than crying.
I saw her walking towards Zhao Hongli with trembling steps, reaching out to touch the latter's face.
Zhao Hongli subconsciously took two steps back, his face full of panic.
Because in his memory, the woman in front of him was a very vicious and vicious woman. Even when he was young and had become the Prince of the East Palace, he was still targeted by this woman.
But the faint sigh from Queen Wang behind him made him stiffen and his whole body became cold: "Yu'er, she is your... biological mother."
"Impossible...impossible...impossible..."
Zhao Hongli murmured to himself and allowed Concubine Shi to caress his face.
At this moment, Concubine Shi, who was caressing his face, had already burst into tears.
She kept apologizing to her biological son in front of her.
Because it was she who had long instigated Queen Wang's biological son Yong Wang Hongyu to steal the position of Prince of the East Palace that should have belonged to her son Zhao Hongli.
"Wang Quan, you bitch, you will not die in peace!"
After giving Queen Wang a hateful look and scolding the latter with all the resentment in her body, she stumbled out of Fengyi Hall crying and laughing.
