Chapter 145 Three Corpse Worms
"Empty words and white teeth slander nobles, and should be severely punished." Chunjia's face was covered by the crown, and she couldn't see clearly, only listening to the young emperor's voice, "However, you have evidence, but you pretend to be deaf and dumb, isn't it? Deliberately trapping the elders in an unrighteous place? Why does Ye Guogong think that the emperor's grandmother and Ji's mother can't resist investigation?"
Duke Ye raised his head and looked at Dan Chi, his eyes flickering coldly: "Of course not! It's just that His Majesty summoned the Qi Tai Hospital and other veterinarians to verify the empress dowager and the empress because of the words of some veterinarians in the Imperial Beast Garden today." Empress Dowager, if there are lowly people who slander you in the future, will Your Majesty come again?"
"Even though the empress dowager and mother, the empress dowager, and your majesty have only been together for nine years, after all, they have a relationship between grandparents and grandchildren, mother and child."
"Previously, His Majesty chose the son of a merchant for His Royal Highness Princess Ming Hui as his son-in-law, but after choosing a high-ranking eunuch for Her Royal Highness Princess Yun'an, the emperor's companion was read as her husband... I have already felt very wronged by the late emperor's only daughter-in-law!"
"Why can't even the aunt and mother be tolerated now?!"
In fact, many people have this kind of thinking. In fact, Chunjia has always been on guard against the Empress Dowager Ji and Princess Minghui, and has never really trusted them.
Not to mention treating them as real relatives.
But tacitly speaking and speaking openly, or speaking in front of so many people, are two different things.
While everyone was shocked by Ye Guogong tearing his face so simply, they also felt that it would be very difficult for the Ji family to pass the test this time.
Otherwise, as the current principal of the Ji family, it is impossible for Ye Guogong to say this at this time.
He was clearly preparing for the next one—Chunjia didn't show any anger at all, but asked the others: "What do you think?"
"Your Majesty, Duke Ye is talking nonsense!" After a brief silence, Duke Yi came out first, "The matter of the auspicious animal is of great importance, and it is now known to the government and the public! Anything caused by it should not be ignored! The issue of the heirs of the two former emperors Shenzong Xiaozong? Is it possible to convince the public by trusting the empress dowager and the empress dowager?"
"That's right!" Ouyang Yanran stepped forward to assist him, "If the Empress Dowager and his mother Empress Dowager were present, they would definitely ask for a thorough investigation to prove their innocence! Ye Guogong is now messing around here, not only is it useless The empress dowager and the empress dowager have cleared their reputation, but they are suspected of not having three hundred taels of silver here. It is self-defeating!"
Glancing at the expressionless Lord Ye, Ouyang Yanran sneered slightly, "Maybe it's because Lord Ye is getting old and confused?"
He was also one of the important ministers when he was Xiaozong, and he was from a family, so he came from a wealthy family. As a result, Xiaozong was repeatedly suppressed by the Ji family because he stood in line, and was relegated for many years. He suffered some near-death tortures in the southern miasma, and finally survived, and the family also declined.
It can be said that when it comes to the depth of resentment towards the Ji family, Ouyang Yanran is not much worse than the regent.
At this moment, of course, I will not miss the opportunity to add insult to injury, "Please calm down, Ye Guogong, and don't delay your Majesty's becoming the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager Mother and Empress Dowager to prove their innocence. Moreover, although the two late emperors Shenzong Xiaozong lived forever, When they were alive, they were all in good health and had no serious illness. This kind of emperor, who was originally suitable for the prosperity of his heirs, why did Xiaozong and the regent have to be under Shenzong's knees; under Xiaozong's knees, only three princesses were born?! "
"The Ji family is deeply favored by Shenzong, don't they care about it at all?"
"..." Ye Guogong held hands, the veins on the back of his hands were exposed, his thin lips were tightly pursed, his eyes were sharp, and he looked at the entire temple one by one, and finally said calmly, "I will obey the holy order."
Everyone had no time to speculate on his mood when he said this. Since the emperor gave orders and Duke Ye also compromised, a thorough investigation will naturally begin!
But just when Sun Yu described the incident to the imperial physicians again and asked them to judge whether it was true or false, a loud and clear message came from outside: The Empress Dowager is here!
"I heard that the Imperial City Secretary found the reason why the two former emperors' heirs are rare?" Even though the Empress Dowager is the person involved, the charges have not yet been settled. She was present in person, and everyone dared not neglect her. After seeing the ceremony, the Empress Dowager looked around and asked straight to the point, "What's going on?"
Chunjia said lightly: "Sun Zixun, let's say it for the emperor's grandmother."
Sun Yu lowered his head and cupped his fists: "I obey the order."
So he started from the beginning again - the veterinarian at the Royal Beast Garden revealed that the Empress Dowager and his mother Empress Dowager used civet cats to murder the son of the emperor. This statement is actually rather vague.
Because it really caused the unhappiness of the two generations of emperors and heirs, even Chunjia welcomed her first child after many years in power, which was the three corpses [Note].
Sun Yong, the head of the veterinarian of Yushouyuan, has a long family history. More than ten generations of his ancestors have been dedicated to serving all kinds of birds and animals. He has been working in Yushouyuan since the previous dynasty.
This kind of skill from generation to generation is cherished by the broom, and it is passed on to men but not to women, so the Sun family has many secret recipes that are only known at home.
"When Sun's children practiced medicine, it was not easy to directly use the birds and animals raised by the royal family in the imperial beast garden. At first, they used the animals they collected from outside to practice their hands. About a few generations ago, there was a child with outstanding talents and excellent medical skills. But after getting married, the wife had three miscarriages in a row, and the fourth time she finally gave birth, but she was a fool."
"At that time, the Sun family had a large population, and there was a lot of talk among the sisters-in-law. Some people said that his wife was not virtuous, so she was not worthy of a child."
"His wife was very sad at first, and she couldn't stand it after hearing the words, so a rope just went away."
"The kid was sad for a while and continued to marry. Who knows that the remarriage is similar. Either he was stillborn, or he was born with various problems."
"But this stepwife is hot-tempered, and with the previous example, she doesn't think it's her fault, but instead blames her husband's family for dragging her down."
"The couple had a dispute, and the step-wife bought some concubines for her husband. She also specially selected people from all over the world to buy them. It turned out that the two concubines were in the same situation—everyone knew at this time. However, the man's wife died wrongfully, so the problem was with him."
But the problem is that since the Sun family had many children at that time, if it is the retribution of the ancestors, this person is neither a young nor a young man, why the brothers are fine, so he should be the one? If it is his own fault, he grew up under the noses of the Sun family. He has spoken and acted like his brothers since he was a child. Not to mention he is a perfect and good person, but he has never done anything that would kill off his children and grandchildren. What's wrong with you?
Then he can only suspect that he did too many bad things in his previous life, and he deserves such retribution in this life.
There is no way to do this, after all, no one can see what happened in his previous life, right?
Anyway, the crime fell on him at the time, so his stepwife proposed to divorce and go back to remarry... In the end, remarrying is also difficult for offspring. , but she is also physically weak, and will die before the age of twenty, so she is asked to send a white-haired man to a black-haired man.
As I said before, this stepwife is very aggressive, so after asking for reconciliation, when the pregnancy with the second husband was not going well, she would run to Sun's door and scold her ex-husband.
She felt that it was her ex-husband who made her tired.
And her ex-husband felt that he was wronged, so he avoided him and didn't dare to meet her.
Later, she came to the house again and again to make trouble, and sometimes even cried and complained while holding the child who was born dead... One of her ex-husbands was annoyed, and the other was also suspicious: If she really did something bad in her previous life, She deserved to have no children. It's okay for this stepwife to have a hard time with her, but she's married to someone else, and she's pregnant with someone else's child, but she still can't bear it?
He actually cursed back, saying that this stepwife might have committed too many crimes in her previous life, so whether she followed him or someone else, she was destined to have no children.
It's just that after scolding, I always feel that my doubts are hard to dispel, and I can't help wondering why.
After thinking about it for two years, he suddenly thought that there was no big difference in words and deeds when he was with his brothers since he was a child, the only thing is that their family practiced hand skills since childhood in order to cultivate their children's medical skills and the ability to serve the royal birds and animals. All the beasts are raised by themselves.
When the brothers were together when they were young, comparisons were inevitable.
Whoever learns the lessons taught by the elders well, and whoever raises the animals well... These are all within the scope of comparison.
And he has always been the leader.
In addition to talent and hard work, it is also because his cats and dogs, sparrow lynx and the like, all eat raw food.
This will make them more energetic, but also more feral.
This is not a good thing for the Sun's children whose purpose is to use them to practice medicine, not to send them to the Colosseum.
So although his brothers also know the benefits of raw food, for the convenience of their daily operations, so as not to get injured every now and then, they still insist on cooking the food for feeding. As for the firewood that was consumed because of this, the Sun family, who has craftsmanship and has been working for the royal family, doesn't care about this little expense.
The Sun's son noticed this, but he was not sure - he was already quite old at this time, and he still had no one to rely on. Although he could adopt a brother's child, how could he have any relatives from his own flesh and blood?
So with the idea of giving it a try, he sent away the birds and beasts he had been raising all the time, and even changed his residence, and bought a maid who said he was close to the age to act as concubine Ji, hoping to give birth to a healthy one. offspring.
But the new concubine Ji still gave birth to a stillbirth.
This made the boy very desperate, but he quickly thought of something else, that the problem might really lie with himself—after all, he was the one who got along most with those beasts who had been eating raw, not his former wives and concubines.
Xu is the hopeless blow of the heirs and the curiosity to find out the root cause. This man is also cruel, and he used innocent people as an experiment: he began to choose good-looking civet cats for training, and then sold them to young female relatives at a very low price them.
It’s just that the person who bought it didn’t know that there are two types of civet cats in his hand: one is cooked food that he has eaten since he opened his eyes; .
Both kinds of civet cats were kept in a room since they landed, and they were never allowed to go to other places.
Then, after the sale is over, try to find out about the owner of the civet cat. The woman who got the civet cat that eats cooked food will have children as usual; the woman who got the civet cat that eats raw food, although not all of them are as miserable as his previous wives and concubines. But the chances of miscarriage, stillbirth and deformed children are six to seven out of ten.
"The idiot that this man gave birth to by a wife died before he lived long. He also had no heirs in the end. Therefore, when he was old, he adopted an heir from the clan. This discovery, of course, was also passed on to the heir." Sun Yu said in a deep voice. Said, "This is not something to be ashamed of. No matter whether it is his heir or the entire Sun family, he dare not reveal it!"
"During the Emperor Shenzong's reign, Haidongqing entered the palace in Liaodong, and was taken care of by Sun Yong's grandfather, Sun An. But that batch of Haidongqing was not used to traveling long distances and the water and soil of the imperial capital. die."
Hai Dongqing is very precious. When such a thing happened, of course the Royal Beast Garden had to give an explanation, and Sun An was the first to bear the brunt - this Sun An was the heir and descendant of the previous Sun's children - the servant who was in charge of handling the matter at that time, It was decided to send him to the frontier after the 40th imperial staff.
This is a very heavy punishment, and you may die in a foreign country.
In order to survive, Sun An decided to seek refuge with the Empress Dowager who was still the Empress of Shenzong at that time.
"A bunch of nonsense!!!" Hearing this, the unbearable Lord Ye yelled, "The first emperor of Shenzong and the empress dowager were married, and they were deeply in love! The first emperor Xiaozong was the eldest son of Shenzong and the empress dowager. No one can question the fact that the title belongs to her... What is the need for the Empress Dowager to murder Shenzong's heirs?! But if Shenzong can have a few more concubine sons, it will be able to help Xiaozong even more!"
"Moreover, Xiaozong is the son of the Empress Dowager!"
"What reason does the Empress Dowager have to let her mother, Empress Dowager, murder her own grandson?!"
Everyone who was immersed in the fact that there is such a harmful law in the world came back to their senses, thought about it, and thought it was right!
Although the Empress Dowager is not considered to be the favorite of the Sixth Palace, she still respects Shenzong as a guest. She has a son, and she is the eldest son of the first wife. If the status is stable, it cannot be more stable. Why bother to murder other concubines and heirs?
If the Empress Dowager knew that there was such a harmful method, she would be fooled and let Shenzong use it. As for conniving her niece, Empress Dowager Ji, to deceive her own son like this?
Not to mention that it is impossible for her to value her niece more than her son, but to say that without her own grandson, she has to make a living in the hands of outsiders-this is the way it is now, Chunjia is the head of the family, she is the emperor's grandmother in name, but in fact Chunjia doesn't care about her. She treats her like a grandmother—whether she deserves to spend her old age like this?
