Chapter three hundred and ninety-six blood confession
Cining Palace, Yanshou Hall.
Because Prince Jian Feng Neheng was older and couldn't stay up all night, he came to Yanshou Hall to take a rest.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs considered that many princes, ministers, and Princess Fujin would be in the palace during the mourning period of the Queen Mother, and would stay in the palace for a long time, so the Yanshou Hall in the palace was used as a temporary resting place for the queen mother, princes, and princes;
Use Hanqingzhai opposite Yanshou Hall as a resting place for ministers;
The Baoxiang Tower to the north of Cining Palace was used as a resting place for Fujin;
Use Jiyun Tower as a resting place for the princess.
In addition, there are Xianruo Pavilion, Ciyin Tower and other places for resting places such as the Prince Consort and Beile.
Not long after Feng Neheng sat down, Prince Zhuang Yongxuan came in.
The ancestor of Prince Zhuang's lineage was Emperor Taizong's fifth son Shuosei, and the second Prince Zhuang was Shuosei's son Boguoduo.
Boguoduo had no children, so in the first year of Yongzheng's reign, Yunlu, the sixteenth son of the Holy Patriarch, was the heir of Boguoduo, thus transferring the hereditary and irreplaceable title of Prince Zhuang to the lineage of the Grand Patriarch.
Prince Jian's line is the original line of Prince Zheng Jierhalang, that is, the line of Shuerhaqi, the younger brother of Emperor Taizu.
According to the folk order, Prince Jian's branch of Tongzhuang Prince has actually been in the fifth service and belongs to the side branch.
"Uncle Jian Wang,"
Yongjun is a generation later than Fengneheng, and is thirteen years younger than Fengneheng. He is only forty years old this year.
Feng Neheng raised his hand to signal Yongjun to sit down and have some snacks to cushion his stomach.
The two princes have not bothered to eat since they entered the palace yesterday.
I don’t blame her, because the Queen Mother died so suddenly, and everything inside and outside the palace was in chaos.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs has already started arranging meals, and you will be able to have hot meals later.
Yongjun did not forget to close the door when he entered. He sat down and pinched a piece of fruit cake and stuffed it into his mouth. After chewing it, he whispered: "There is no problem with the cause of death of the Queen Mother. I looked carefully when she was buried. There were no marks on her neck or corners of her mouth."
There are no blood stains, and his face does not look like he was poisoned. I also asked people to read the medication records of Tai Hospital, and there is nothing suspicious about them."
After hearing this, Feng Neheng was slightly startled, shook his head and said: "Why are you so confused? How could the emperor murder the Queen Mother at this time?"
This is the logic, but Yong Jin just felt that there was something fishy about this matter, and said: "Uncle Jian Wang, then why did you say that the Queen Mother died when she was fine?"
"The Queen Mother is already very old. Suddenly, rumors were spread. It is normal for her to be unable to accept the blood for a while and to have her heart sink..."
Fonnehen's view is more objective and close to the truth - the Queen Mother was furious to death.
But he was not angry by the emperor, but by those rumors.
As a person in his eighties, no one can bear such unsightly slander. It is normal for him to be unable to think about it for a while.
Yongjun thought that this might be the case, so he stopped expressing his opinion on the cause of the Queen Mother's death. Instead, he asked about another matter: "By the way, Uncle Jian, have the people sent to Tongcheng come back?"
Feng Nehen shook his head, he was also surprised by this.
He sent people to Zhang's house in Tongcheng half a month ago, and he should have come back quickly, but he still hasn't received any news until now.
I don't know what those slaves are doing.
"Uncle Jian Wang, what do you think about the fact that the emperor is not a Manchurian?"
Although Yongjin had communicated with some people in the clan, this was the first time he asked Uncle Jian, who was in charge of the clan's residence, for his opinion.
Fonnehen didn't say a word, because someone else came in.
It is Wang Qingheng of Ping County.
Qingheng's line is the line of Yue Tuo, the eldest son of Prince Li Daishan.
Yue Tuo was initially named Prince Cheng, but later he was demoted. After his death, he was granted the title of Prince Keqin. Like Prince Shuncheng, he was also replaced by others.
Among the princes in Beijing, there are three of them, Prince Li Daishan, one is Prince Kang, the other is Prince Keqin, and the other is Prince Shuncheng.
The lineage of Emperor Taizong is today's Prince Zhuang, and there are three branches: Prince Xian and Prince Yi.
Prince Xian is the descendant of Taizong's eldest son, Prince Su Hauge, and Prince Yi is the descendant of Yinxiang, the thirteenth son of the Holy Patriarch.
The inheritance of the two princes, Prince Rui and Prince Yu, is that of Prince Doroxin.
The emperor asked Chunying, Prince of Xin County, to participate in the funeral of the Queen Mother, probably because he considered that Chunying's branch was the inheritance of the two founding princes in the early days of the Kingdom.
Including Prince Jian who was passed down from the line of Prince Zheng, there were a total of eight hereditary hat kings in the Qing Dynasty.
Qingheng's uncle was Fupeng, the king of Pingjun. After the emperor ascended the throne, he tried hard to suppress Fupeng, which led to Fupeng's untimely death. Fupeng's son Qingming died after being the king of Pingjun for a few years. In the end, the title of this prince fell on Qingheng.
.
"Have you heard that the emperor asked Heshen to build a golden pagoda?"
As soon as Qingheng arrived, he brought the latest news to the two princes inside.
Yongjun was puzzled: "Why build a golden pagoda?"
Qingheng picked up Yongjin's tea bowl, took a sip, and said, "It is said to store the hair that the Queen Mother had fallen off when she was combing her hair."
Feng Neheng sighed: "The emperor is truly filial."
Yong Jin was also a little moved. Although he suspected that the emperor was really a Han, the emperor's filial piety towards the queen mother was unspeakable in the world.
Qingheng looked at the two of them strangely: "Don't you think this is strange?"
Yongjun was confused: "How to say?"
Qing Heng whispered: "There are demons everywhere outside calling for souls, and the soul calling must have the hair of the person being seduced..."
"Are you saying that the Queen Mother was haunted by someone?"
Yongjun was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.
"I don't dare to say this nonsense, but our emperor cut off his braids in front of the Queen Mother. This has to make people suspicious."
When Qingheng said this, his tone sounded very much like Fulehun, the Minister of Rites.
After Yongjun fell silent, he said truthfully: "The rumors about the emperor's life experience are spreading fiercely now. It is not only discussed in our clan, but also among the officials of the Eight Banners and the Han Dynasty. If there is no conclusion and it continues like this, God knows what will happen.
thing."
"Is the emperor the son of the late emperor? There is no smoke without fire. If the emperor is really a Han, then our Aisin Gioro family will become a big joke."
Qingheng looked worried, just like Fulhun, but what Fubutang said about Manchuria had become a big joke.
"Uncle Jian Wang, you are Zongzheng, you have to make a decision on this matter."
"I have an idea? What idea do I have?"
Feng Neheng glared at the two of them, "Do you want me to ask the emperor if he is the father of the late emperor?"
Qingheng said: "If you want to find out whether the emperor is the son of the late emperor, there is no way."
Feng Neheng was stunned: "What can we do?"
Qing Heng looked outside and lowered his voice and said: "Bleed for blood test! Open the underground palace of the late emperor and ask the emperor to test for blood!"
"What?!"
Yongjun and Feng Neheng stood up in shock at the same time. This idea was too bold and shocking. Since ancient times, no emperor has shed blood to recognize his relatives.
"Even if the clan members wanted to, the emperor would not agree..."
