Chapter 196 (1/2)
Xue Guifei's reaction amused Fang Shaojian.
He laughed and said, ”don't get me wrong. The empress didn't give me a dream. The Queen's wife has no choice but to explain it before she passed away. As soon as the time comes, she must come to see her and explain the matter clearly. ”
Xue Guifei stares at Fang Shaojian suspiciously.
”When? How many things did empress Ruizhen tell you? ”
Fang Shaojian said: ”the empress has already expected that Meibin, a fool, will come to an end today. My mother told me that when the meipin incident happened, I must come to see the imperial concubine and tell me the truth about the death of the fourth prince? ”
”What do you say?”
Xue Guifei was shocked.
The fourth prince, the eldest son of Xue Guifei, died at the age of 12. Twenty years have passed since this incident was counted. What is the purpose of Fang Shaojian's bringing it up at this time?
As for the matter of Meibin's mistreatment of the eighth emperor's daughter, it was clear to all, both inside and outside the Imperial City, except that the emperor did not know.
But no one wanted to expose it.
Because it is not good to expose this matter, on the contrary, it will cause a lot of disgust.
Just like now, the eighth Prince's daughter passed away, and the abuse was discovered by the emperor. When the emperor was angry, blood flowed into a river.
In one day, more than 100 palace people have died. I don't know how many people will die next.
Anger and hatred flashed in Xue Guifei's eyes, and she sneered, ”Ruizhen empress Cui is dead. Do you still want to rehabilitate her?”
The death of the fourth Prince is Xue Guifei's biggest regret. Since then, she has been targeting empress Ruizhen everywhere.
Fang Shaojian's eyebrows and eyes moved and said in a low voice: ”of course, it's not for the sake of rehabilitating the empress. I just want to tell the truth about the empress.”
Xue Guifei said angrily, ”the truth is that my emperor's son was killed by the woman Ruizhen Cui. Now she is dead, but the prince is still alive. I will never let go of the prince. ”
Fang Shaojian raised his eyelids. ”Does the lady really think that the fourth prince was killed by the empress?”
”Isn't it?” Princess Xue sneered and her eyes were full of sarcasm.
”Of course not.” Fang Shaojian said with a loud voice.
Xue Guifei sneered and leaned back in her chair.
She said, ”you think you say that and this house will believe you?”
Fang Shaojian slightly lowered his head and said, ”Niang, think carefully. If it is really the empress who has harmed the fourth prince, why does your majesty just reprimand and let this matter go?”
Xue Guifei sneered, ”of course, it's because the empress's family is powerful and your majesty is afraid of it.”
”No! The reason why his majesty did not pursue this matter is that his majesty is the real murderer. ”
Fang Shaojian's words were a great surprise.
Xue Guifei yelled, ”nonsense. If you are really a three-year-old child in this palace, you will believe whatever you say. ”
Fang Shaojian smiles, ”am I really talking nonsense? You may as well think about what happened before the fourth Prince passed away. ”
Xue Guifei is not sure. She could not help thinking back to what had happened a few months before the fourth Prince passed away.
It's too long to remember many things.
However, Xue Guifei always remembers that there was a priest in the palace who met the fourth Prince and said that he was extremely intelligent. He was a dragon and a Phoenix.
At that time, she was very happy. The fourth Prince showed extraordinary intelligence since he was three years old.
I can't forget reading, but I can draw inferences from one instance. At a young age, I have been able to talk with great Confucians and express unique views on the government.
At that time, Xue Guifei was proud of the fourth prince, and both the civil and military in the full Dynasty praised the fourth prince.
However, a little wind and cold killed the fourth prince.
The death of the fourth prince made Xue Guifei miserable.
All the evidence points to the queen.
At that time, the court was discussing the issue of establishing the crown prince. The wise fourth Prince obviously threatened the queen and his son.
In order to clear up the obstacles for her own son, the queen killed the fourth prince. Xue Guifei never doubted this.
However, the emperor's treatment of the death of the fourth prince was a small amount of thunder, which made Xue Guifei extremely dissatisfied.
This matter, like a thorn, has been stuck in Xue Guifei's heart.
Whenever she had a chance, she would go to the queen and the prince.
She joined forces with the anti crown prince people in the Imperial Palace, and spent nine years to let no one around him speak for the prince.
Now Fang Shaojian even told her that the person who killed the fourth prince was not the empress, but the emperor. How could it be possible.
Fang Shao Jian sees Xue Guifei's expression is dignified, smile, ”think to come imperial concubine empress already thought of that year's affair.”
Xue Guifei sneered, ”nonsense, why does your majesty harm the fourth prince. That's his own son, the cleverest son. ”
Fang Shao Jian said without expression: ”the reason for the death of the fourth Prince is that he is so clever that his majesty is afraid.””Presumptuous!” Xue Guifei denounced Fang Shaojian.
Fang Shaojian was not moved and said in a cold voice, ”what kind of temperament is your majesty? Does your mother not know?”
Xue Guifei has a dignified expression.
Of course, she knows the temperament of the emperor. Because she knew it well, she never expressed any views on the government and the princes. Because it will be the suspicion of your majesty.
The emperor can sit on the throne, is stepping on the body of his father and brother.
He was suspicious of himself and could not trust anyone completely.
As for the relationship between father and son, in the royal family, first the monarch and his ministers, then the father and son.
Does the emperor really kill the fourth Prince because he is too clever?
Will the emperor be so cruel and cruel?
Yes, the emperor is so cruel.
The color of panic flashed in Xue Guifei's eyes. Fang Shaojian was ready to catch her, but he didn't poke it.
”At that time, the fourth prince was just a young child. How could your majesty have such a vicious hand?”
Xue Guifei was cold all over.
Fang Shaojian said: ”it is because the fourth Prince is a child that he is good at starting. Does your mother ever know that in those days, the priest once approved the life of the fourth Prince twice. ”
”Why doesn't this palace know?” Xue Guifei looks suspicious.
Fang Shaojian laughed. ”Only four people know about this. The son of heaven, Chen JianZheng, Empress and me. But I also listen to the queen
Xue Guifei's face was dignified. ”What did the alchemist say for the fourth Prince's life for the second time?”
”The scribe said only one word, son is against father.”
”Nonsense!” Xue Guifei's face was pale, and three words cut off the life and death of the fourth prince. She was a very vicious alchemist and a cruel son of heaven.
Her expression was distorted. ”How can we know that you are not making it up? Maybe the priest is the Queen's wife. Please come to the palace and deliberately disturb the palace, and separate your majesty from the father and son of the fourth prince. ”
Fang Shaojian did not take any pains. ”I knew the lady had this question. I'd like to tell my wife one more thing. In those days, the emperor also asked the scribes to approve the life of the empress. The priest said that the emperor would be harmed. ”
”You must be making things up and trying to shake the palace. This palace will not be fooled by you. ”
Xue Guifei clenched her teeth and said she didn't believe Fang Shaojian. In fact, she already believed it in her heart.
She remembered that before the fourth Prince died, the priest suddenly disappeared from the palace one day. No one knew whether he was dead or alive.
Also, since then, the two emperors, who had a good relationship, began to fight each other.
If it wasn't for the eldest brother of empress dowager, the last generation of Duke of Zhenguo won the trust of the emperor. He was afraid that the emperor would have abolished the empress.
The empress has the means, the strategy, the backer, as well as the strong fighting capacity, which can be matched with the emperor. So the empress survived and didn't die until this year.
Then the fourth prince was just a teenager and had no sense of precaution against the emperor. It's easy for the emperor to kill him. He can also easily push the boat and put the charges on the empress's head.
It was may, and the weather was so hot that people felt flustered. However, Xue Guifei seemed to be in the cold winter.
Fang Shaojian knows that Xue Guifei has been moved.
He said to Xue Guifei, ”it's not nonsense. I think my mother has her own decision.”
