[Lu Zhen] Empress Dowager is difficult
Chapter 51
Lou Zhao used a force that the Lou family had kept for many years and had never used it, to find out about the past incident of Emperor Chen.
It is said that Emperor Chen had many heirs, but this daughter was the only one he liked very much.
A piece of old history was pulled out of the news of the dark man's report, and it talked about the old affairs between the current Emperor Chen Wen and his former wife.At that time, Emperor Chen Wen was still a military general of Liang State, and his main wife was the concubine daughter of a third-rank general of Liang State.The two are very affectionate, this Mrs. Chen has only one daughter under her knees, and the husband and wife are like treasures in the palm of their hands.
Ten years ago, Emperor Chen Wudi, brother of Emperor Wendi, wiped out Hou Jing, a traitor of the Liang Kingdom, and established the Kingdom of Chen, with Emperor Wen appointed as the crown prince.Emperor Wu believed that his younger brother's main wife was of low status and was not worthy of being a princess, so he found another beautiful woman for her.Unexpectedly, this Mrs. Chen was a fierce woman, and she jumped into the water with her daughter in her arms the night she heard the news.
Mrs. Chen was not able to sober up in the end, but this daughter was lucky and survived.
Emperor Wen deeply regretted this matter, and although he later gave birth to several sons, he cherished this only daughter the most.After ascending the throne, the first thing to do was to confer her the title of Princess Tongchang, and grant her a fief as a prince.
These are all old news that are praised by everyone on the bright side. It didn't take much effort for the secret agents to learn these old news. The things that took them so many days to investigate are more hidden than the above. Emperor Chen kept a very good secret.
Princess Tongchang is actually a fool.
Presumably, when she was hugged by her mother and jumped into the well, she knocked her brain out. Although she was rescued, she became stupid, like an eight-year-old child.When Emperor Chen Wen thought of this, he cherished this daughter even more. The aunt who raised Princess Tongchang since she was a child was canonized as Mrs. Yue, and she guarded Princess Tongchang all the time, hiding this secret.
……
After Qing Qiang finished these words, she picked up the teapot placed on the stone table in the pavilion and poured a cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp, as if she was madly thirsty after rushing all the way.
Zhaojun lowered his head and thought about it for a while, only to feel that everything suddenly became clear. Why did the Emperor Chen generously lend troops to Gao Zhan in the past? The horse rushed back to Qi State.Why did Emperor Chen not take the opportunity to attack Daqi like Wei did? These questions seemed to be solved in an instant.
Because of the most noble nature and the most suitable royal family who can marry Princess Tongchang is the second prince of Daqi, Gao Zhan.If he, Chen Guo, carves up Da Qi like Wei Guo did, and in the end Qi Guo will perish and Wei Guo will grow stronger, the next thing to do is to devour Chen Guo.And at that time, Zhaojun had nowhere to go and made an alliance with Wei State. Even if Daqi was not partitioned and died, he would only become a vassal state of Wei State in the end, and Chen State was naturally in jeopardy.
Therefore, Emperor Chen Wen chose to reinforce Gao Zhan at this critical moment, cut off the covenant between Qi State and Wei State with Gao Zhan's hand, and then married his daughter as the queen.In this way, with Qi State in the middle to check and balance, Wei State dare not act rashly, and there is a marriage covenant, when Qi State and Chen State become allies, it will naturally be more beneficial than simply carve up.This is a political benefit.
According to selfishness, Gao Zhan got the benefits of Emperor Chen Wen, and after marrying Princess Tongchang, even if he knew that Princess Tongchang was a fool, Gao Zhan would treat Princess Tongchang kindly after thinking of his past kindness.This is a personal benefit.
After such an analysis, all the cause and effect are very clear. Zhaojun rested his chin with one hand, looked at the red carp with its tail happily wagging in the pond, and remained silent for a long time.
Qing Qiang came over with the teapot, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Auntie, Qing Qiang thinks it doesn't matter that Princess Tongchang is a fool, after the emperor marries her, he can still marry other concubines into the palace. For a politically motivated marriage, we are marrying Princess Tongchang, not Princess Tongchang."
Zhaojun waved his hand, expressing that he did not want to participate in this topic.
It is true that this kind of political marriage has nothing to do with the self-cultivation and morality of the marriage partner. Everyone marries or marries, and the person who wants to marry is the identity of the other party, not the person.Qing Qiang thought that her aunt was disgusting that Princess Tongchang was a fool.
But I don't know what Zhaojun thinks is very troublesome is how to get Emperor Chen Wen to marry his daughter.Gao Yan has long been established, in the eyes of Emperor Chen Wen, Gao Yan may have already lost his qualifications, and even if Xiao Huanyun, the queen, is abolished at this time, it will not help. A handsome man without concubines, but Gao Yan is a fatuous emperor who can't even control his own woman, and finally became deposed. It's clear at a glance which one is better.
At such a critical moment, the abolition of the empress will only make Emperor Chen's impression of Gao Yan even worse.
This matter can only be put on hold for the time being.
Holding a cup of cold tea in her hand, Qing Qiang looked at Zhaojun with a little guilt, lowered her head to take a sip of the tea, and looked up at Zhaojun again.
Zhaojun was numb from her look, and couldn't help but move the bait bowl to the side, and said, "What else do you want to say? Let's talk about it together."
Qing Qiang took a sip of tea, looked up at her, and smiled: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that Uncle said that the King of the Mountain has already dealt with the border affairs in advance, and he is packing his bags to return to the palace. It's been a few days."
Zhaojun nodded.
Gao Zhan was going back to the palace, which meant that he had to hurry up and do what he had to do.
At night, Lengque ordered someone to deliver the secret message.Standing by the lamppost, Zhaojun looked at the note carefully at the burning candle, and it took him a long time to translate it before he realized the general meaning.Leng Que said that it has been two days since Lu Zhen returned to the Palace of Blue Mirrors, and last night she saw her sitting at the gate of the Palace of Blue Mirrors having a tryst with a man, but was crushed by He Rui.It is said that He Rui had picked up a black cloak next to Lu Zhen at that time, which was the style worn by men. He Rui wanted to send Lu Zhen to the Punishment Department, but was stopped by Concubine Zhou and was promoted to a second-class court lady. Very bright.
Leng Que expressed her views on this matter in secret words, when He Rui made a fuss, she was undressing in her room and preparing to go to bed, when she heard the noise, she put on her clothes and went out.The speed with which she performed such a set of movements was already very fast, but in the end, like the court ladies who love to watch the excitement, they naturally fell behind.
It was because she fell behind that she saw the appearance of the man who had a tryst with Lu Zhen.
It was late at night, and Lenque, who had put on a coat and rushed over, accidentally caught a glimpse of the man at the corner of the corridor, because he was wearing a moon-white uniform and was walking in the dark. It is very conspicuous in the night.Lengque quietly followed behind him.
It is said that at that time, he had bypassed the bustling palace ladies to escape through the side door, but when his slender and white fingers touched the board door, he stopped abruptly.Just like that, the man in moon-white clothes stood in front of the side door of the backyard with few palace lanterns and paused for a long time, then turned around suddenly, and walked resolutely and resolutely in the direction of the bustling palace ladies.
The moment he turned his head back, a few wisps of ambergris faintly passed through the tip of his nose.
Under the weak light of the palace lantern, that person's face was mottled and obscured, but Lengque still recognized at a glance that this person is the current Holy One, Gao Yan.
Leng Que expressed her extreme incomprehension of the emperor's behavior in the secret language, and described all the changes after Gao Yan returned.Lu Zhen, who was said to be stealing men in the palace, suddenly turned into a second-class court lady, and the cloak that was said to be dropped by a wild man on the ground became the overlord's cloak.He Rui was stunned at that moment, her expression was as if she had been slapped twice in public.
Although Leng Que couldn't understand why Gao Yan appeared in the Palace of Blue Mirrors late at night, she still explained to Zhaojun what happened next and her point of view very dedicatedly.
And the things she said next were very complicated and unfocused. To sum up these words a little bit and condense them into one sentence, that is, since that night, Concubine Zhou has shown great love and trust for Lu Zhen , even the jewelry that she was given as a dowry back then can be rewarded to Lu Zhen.
Lengque expressed doubts, but Zhaojun felt that all this happened was very normal, and it was a bit too normal.
The person Gao Yan yearns for is Xiao Huanyun, but he can't get it, so he can only retreat to yearn for Lu Zhen, who looks somewhat similar to Xiao Huanyun.This is human nature.
But ever since he learned about the entanglement between Lu Zhen and Xiao Huanyun, he never went to the Palace of Blue Mirror to meet Lu Zhen again, presumably his heart was towards Xiao Huanyun.
But Yang Guiren's incident chilled him so much that Xiao Huanyun's weight in his heart dropped.One thing that Xiao Huanyun didn't know was that Gao Yan had mentioned Yang Guiren in front of Zhaojun more than once, saying that she was very good at chess and could stand against him overnight without losing.Therefore, Gao Yan would stay overnight in Yang Guiren's Defu Palace and play chess with her when he got excited.
Xiao Huanyun's methods are cruel, Yang Guiren who can be comforted by chatting is dead, and the only one left is Lu Zhen.Therefore, Zhaojun felt that it was too normal for Gao Yan to meet Lu Zhen.
Therefore, Lengque's doubts can be ignored.
The secret language continued to say, these few days because Concubine Zhou is really kind to Lu Zhen, everyone in Qingjing Palace is very jealous of Lu Zhen, of course, that no-brainer He Danniang must be excluded.
Among the envious group of people, He Rui was the most. She was originally a court lady who read scriptures to Concubine Zhou, and she only needed to read one scripture before returning home to rest.But ever since this job was snatched away by Lu Zhen, she could only get up early in the morning to be on duty like other maids in the palace, serving Zhou Taifei's food and daily life, which was very tiring.
Leng Que said that He Rui has mentioned more than once that she wants to put a stumbling block on Lu Zhen and make her fall, and she thinks this stumbling block can be "poisoning the concubine".
Here I have to praise this little palace maid named He Rui, she is really a girl who keeps her word, she said she would poison the concubine, and in the blink of an eye the next day...
The news that the concubine was seriously ill had already reached Zhaojun's ears.
The author has something to say: Mr. Gu went shopping stupidly, but was unfortunately blown down by the strong wind. This chapter comes from his state of muddled mind. Yes, please leave a comment below.
When Mr. Gu is clear-headed, he will revise it.
And here I am very grateful to Miss Lena2100 for mine and Miss Qinghuai for mine, and then Mr. Gu said that he wanted to confirm Miss Lena2100, are your hands shaking?You have lost two! ! ! [The precipitous tone is Mr. Gu's original tone at that time. 】
