Chapter 776: The Massacre Many Years Ago
The empress dowager was jumping in her eyebrows, making her eyes turn black. She raised her trembling finger and pointed at Yuan Qing and said sternly: "You...you said, what is the boss doing? You will be searched or asked to be executed? Don't use any interference in politics or not to make excuses. The fifth brother is pampering you. If you ask him, he will definitely tell you everything. Don't hide it and tell the truth!"
It’s not that Yuan Qingling didn’t want to say it, but that this matter could not be said out of her mouth. Saying it out means she knows everything. She doesn’t want to cause trouble for Lao Wu.
Let’s talk about this. Where can I explain this clearly in the Queen Mother?
Seeing that she didn't say anything, the empress dowager turned around and scolded Concubine Qin angrily, "Why are you crying? Tell me. What's going on?"
Concubine Qin knelt and climbed to the empress dowager, and said with tears and snot, "I don't know what's going on. I only know that Prince Ji's mansion was investigated and the people were also put in prison. It was said that when the prince convicted him of his rebellion, the whole family would be executed!"
"The whole family was executed?" The empress dowager shivered when she heard these four words, "Oh my God, this matter must not be repeated. It must be an unjust case. Master Huizong made a big mistake back then. He accidentally killed Prince Yu's whole family. If the Twelve Old Man was carried out, Prince Yu's lineage would have been defeated. You can't make this big mistake. Come, come, prepare your shoulder carriage, and you will see the emperor."
Emperor Mingyuan was afraid that the old empress dowager would interfere in this matter. Now that he saw the empress dowager coming in a hurry, his face full of anger, he knew that he could not hide it.
Concubine Qin and Yuan Qingling came with him. Seeing these two people, Emperor Mingyuan's face became dark and glared at Yuan Qingling fiercely.
Yuan Qingling was innocent and helpless, but he also knew that his father must have to vent his anger at her.
"You go out first!" Emperor Mingyuan said to Yuan Qingling lightly.
Yuan Qingling was also afraid of staying here to cause trouble. After hearing Emperor Mingyuan's words, he hurriedly bowed and left. He did not dare to stay outside the imperial study room, nor did he dare to leave the palace immediately. Thinking that at this critical moment, the only one of the Supreme Emperor was the safest, so he rushed to Qiankun Palace.
The Supreme Emperor knew about this matter. As long as he wanted to know about every move outside, he could not hide it.
The Supreme Emperor was obviously sad. Yuan Qingling went to the hall to sit for a while, and then he smoked a bag of cigarettes, and the whole hall was filled with smoke. He coughed while coughing, and his face turned red. Even Fubao couldn't stay and slipped into the back hall.
Yuan Qingling couldn't help but persuade him, "Old man, please stop smoking."
The Supreme Emperor glanced at her lightly, "If you can't stay, just roll out."
"I'm afraid you will hurt your body." Yuan Qingling said helplessly.
The Supreme Emperor shook the ashes and said lightly: "I have been dead for a lifetime, but I have been dead for most of my life. If I am injured, who cares?"
Yuan Qingling looked at the stubborn face under his gray hair. This old man was going to be stronger for the rest of his life, but in fact, no matter whether he was in power or abdicating, he could not control much, especially the open and secret struggles in the royal family, and he was even more powerless.
Just like the current father.
"Who doesn't care? Your longevity is a blessing for the Northern Tang Dynasty and the descendants of the royal family." Yuan Qingling said.
"What does the blessings of others have to do with me? Who would like me to ask me for me?" The Supreme Emperor was a little irritable today. After saying a few words, he glared at Yuan Qingling with breath.
Seeing that he was like a firecracker, Yuan Qingling did not dare to say anything else, so he honestly closed his mouth to pinch his shoulders and beat his legs.
After pinching for a while, seeing that he seemed to have benefited, he slowly opened up the conversation and asked, "Old man, I just heard the emperor's grandmother talk about Prince Yu, what's going on with Prince Yu?"
"Their family? Except for the Twelve Old Man, the whole family is rich!" The Supreme Emperor closed his eyes and said.
Although it was a tragic incident in the royal family, he was also young at that time and had no feelings for Prince Yu, the emperor. In addition, after many years, everything was settled, so naturally there was no sadness.
"What about this twelve old? Are you still here?" Yuan Qingling asked.
The Supreme Emperor opened his eyes and rolled her eyes, "Ah!"
"Oh, that's a blessing." Yuan Qingling said.
Eunuch Chang smiled beside him and said, "Crown Princess, this twelfth prince, how many times have you seen him?"
Yuan Qingling was shocked, "How many times have I seen him?...has he been named Prince?"
The orphans who were killed in the family were finally named Prince. What the Empress Dowager said was indeed an unjust case.
"Not? It's Prince Bao!" Eunuch Chang said with a smile.
Yuan Qingling was a little surprised, "It turned out to be him?"
Prince Bao is the leader of the Yuwen family. The last time he revised the jade letter, he also asked him, was the prince of the royal family.
Yuan Qingling thought a little deeply.
"What are you thinking?" The Supreme Emperor asked unhappily when he saw her stop.
Yuan Qingling hurriedly retracted his mind, "No, I was just a little surprised. I saw him..." It was not appropriate to call him the old man, because this Prince Bao was actually not very old, ten or eight years younger than the Supreme Emperor, and was well maintained, and looked like a brother to his father.
"He is now open-minded and wise, and he didn't expect that he had experienced a great disaster." Yuan Qingling said with a smile.
"When this happened, he was just a baby. Even if he knew that he would be rehabilitated for him, who could he resent?"
"That's right!" Yuan Qing Ling Yan responded insincerely.
On the other side of the imperial study, I don’t know how Emperor Mingyuan convinced the empress dowager. Anyway, when Yuan Qingling went back to Ronghe Palace to pick up the children, the empress dowager was crying, but she didn’t say anything.
However, when Yuan Qingling took the child away from Ronghe Palace, he was stopped by Concubine Qin.
Concubine Qin had always wanted to tell Yuan Qingling privately, but Yuan Qingling was unwilling to see her, so she had to send a message in front of the empress dowager, thinking that the empress dowager could put pressure on Yuan Qingling, but she didn't know that the emperor only said to the empress dowager, "Who can be more sad than me, who will say anything more, and just shed tears."
She had no choice but to continue asking for Yuan Qingling.
Yuan Qingling dragged the three children, and she couldn't help crying and beating hard, so she had to instruct the wet nurse to take the children out to wait first.
Qin Fei's eyes were swollen when she cried, and she held Yuan Qingling's hand and begged: "I know that I was not very friendly to you in the past, but I have never offended you. The harem women could not ask about the matters of the previous dynasty, and I couldn't see the prince. I asked the prince's concubine to tell him a few words, and then said that the prince admired his elder brother since he was a child, and he also took him to practice martial arts many times. He had a lot of affection for his flesh and family, and his brothers and feet were deeply in love with his bones and tendons. He broke his bones and had a few brothers in the past.
