Chapter 260 Sacrifice

"The extraordinary things can be solved by ordinary people, but they don't know how to identify the true or falsehood of the words of the eldest son?" After a while, Yuanxiu picked up the herbal tea in front of him and drank it all. He stabilized his mood and asked in a low voice.

Du Qingtang smiled and said, "Your master, the recommendation of the eldest son revealed to your lord. Back. But there is only the first elephant and the second elephant?

Yuan Xiu bit his lip and said, "Yes, the Duke means..."

"In the past, the Taizong emperor summoned the Taoist master to calculate the future. At that time, there were two people famous in the world." Du Qingtang said lightly, "You must also know which two they are, Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tianang! Originally, Emperor Taizong only wanted to win the national fortune of his dynasty, but Li Chunfeng rose on a whim and launched a total of 60 pictures for more than 2,000 years. Yuan Tiangan next to him couldn't stand it and pushed his back with his hand. The so-called 'Thousands can't be said, it's better to push his back to rest'!"

"These palaces all know."

"What you don't know is that because of the 60 elephant pictures calculated by Li and Yuan, each picture was accompanied by a praise, thinking that Li and Yuan were as famous at that time, but Li Chunfeng suppressed Yuan Tian's head in this matter. Emperor Taizong rewarded this picture, which also made Li Chunfeng overwhelm Yuan Tianang, so After Emperor Taizong left, Li Yuan turned against each other and separated the pictures and texts. The descendants of the two families turned out to be enemies!" Du Qingtang said with a faint smile, "The world calls Li Yuan like a fairy. It can be seen that this fairy is not a real fairy, and there is a reason to be killed in the mortal world."

Yuan Xiu ignored his last ridicul and was surprised: "So the picture hidden in the palace..."

"Originally, Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangon's calculation in front of Emperor Taizong, because the secrets were leaked too much and could be witnessed by ordinary people, and they did not even dare to collect them in the deep palace. Therefore, after looking at them, Emperor Taizong still returned to Li Yuanzang. This is why the two families separated pictures and texts after Emperor Taizong, but although these two people are powerful , the descendants of later generations may not have such luck as enough to suppress this thing. Therefore, Li Yuan, the descendants of Li Yuan gradually withered. On the contrary, they are not as good as the royal family or at least suppressed by the spirit of the emperor. Du Qingtang said slowly, "So later, the two families knew that they had left this thing in their hands, which was harmful. Then they were sent back to the palace and suppressed with the spirit of the royal emperor. They just left to warn that idle people should not watch it, so as not to be blessed enough... The Guo family is an example!"

Yuan Xiu squeezed his lips and was silent for a long time. Fang said, "So, if this dynasty... overthrows, will the new dynasty... come out of Xichuan?"

"This old man doesn't know either." Du Qingtang smiled and said, "I have focused on power all my life, but this kind of easy calculation is not even as good as an ordinary divination person in the east and west cities."

"Otherwise, why did my grandfather have to send his eldest son and grandson to Xichuan and make friends with Xichuan jiedushi?" Yuanxiu gently bit his lower lip and sneered, "Even if the new dynasty did not come out of Xichuan, there must be vitality there. Xichuan is many mountains and the roads are rugged. Since ancient times, it has been a difficult place to defend. In the past, because of the Anshi Rebellion, the emperor was in a hurry to drive in Shu?"

She squinted and muttered, "If you just send your eldest son and grandson to Xichuan and make friends with Liu Xun, it will not cause the clan to have no such treatment. After all, the mother was still there at that time, and the fifth brother was appointed as the crown prince... The foreign ancestor's family is also deeply rooted in Chang'an, which has caused great controversy in the court and the opposition from time to time, but Guo Laoling Gongwei I hope it still exists... How can it be so easily solved? Lord, of course, you cover the sky with one hand, but if your ancestors really fight to the death, I'm afraid even the former emperor will have a headache, right? The Guo family... Even Liu Xun is so easy to be killed... as if..."

Yuan Xiu took a deep look at Du Qingtang: "It seems that the Guo family did not resist at all!"

Du Qingtang's city is extremely deep. Yuan Xiu tried like this, but his face was calm and said with a faint smile, "This matter is no longer what you can know."

Yuan Xiu narrowed her eyes. She already knew that Mu Wangzi, the boy from the teaching workshop, was the youngest brother of the Empress Dowager Wenhua and Guo Shilang's confidant who was pardoned for the death of the Empress Dowager Wenhua and King Mao. Earlier, she remembered the child, or because the day before that time, Xue and Xuanhong coaxed her to go. Qing Wangguan, as a result, the three of them broke up unhappily in order to salute the eldest son. Xue has always loved Yuan Xiu. It was the first time to openly disobey her intention like this, not to mention for a monk that Yuanxiu had never seen before. Yuanxiu returned to the palace at that time, he was aggrieved and doubtful, but Xue Since she refused to explain, she didn't want to take the initiative to ask who the eldest son was...

When she came back from Qing Wangguan, she was so angry that she couldn't help but fall asleep at night - at that time, the cold food only passed, and it was the festival of the ancestor sacrifice that unconsciously thought of the previous funeral of Empress Dowager Zhaoxian.

At that time, Princess Pingjin invited her to take her daughter to Fengyi to live temporarily at the cold food feast - when these two things were added, Yuanxiu naturally became more careful. Originally, this matter was handed over to the queen. She was extremely knowledgeable and could not care about it. However, soon after the cold food, Xue and Xuanhong coaxed her to salute a Taoist priest- It's really weird!

Although Xuanhong only hosts a small forgetful view now, she is a serious princess. Moreover, she can make friends with Du Qingtang for many years, and she is not an ordinary princess. Xue is raised by the Guo family of the Wang clan in Chang'an, and she is also a young sister loved by the Empress Dowager Wenhua. These two are not only Yuanxiu's elders, but also well-informed people. Yuanxiu knew that they would not harm themselves, but with her temperament, she was unwilling to break her identity easily. However, Xuanhong and Xue were as respectful as gods. Although Yuanxiu said a monk when she fell out with the princess of Yunzhou, it was just a moment of anger. She was born with beautiful clothes and food, favored in all kinds of needs. As well as luxury things, it goes without saying that someone has prepared it and sent it to her. Besides, she is still healthy and has been disease-free since she was a child. She doesn't pay much attention to the prayers of the fairy family, and naturally doesn't care about the immortality.

Despite this, Yuan Xiu also knew that the long-born son must have a lot of means to make Xuanhong and Xue Shi so respectful. At that time, Yuanxiu was thinking about it - Princess Pingjin's incident at the funeral of Empress Dowager Zhaoxian was a little bit tiger-headed. Because the matter was handed over to Wang, Yuanxiu did not ask about the result again - especially the person she thought about who might do it!

It's just that Fengchun designed Pingjin, and even dragged the royal family behind the queen and Princess Pingjin's foreign Lu family to the water. At that time, Yuanxiu could not see Fengchun's intention, but at that time, it was not long before the end of Emperor Xianzong's filial piety. Yuanxiu thought that he should be considered political affairs. Yuan Xiu's eldest sister and sister-in-law at that time Although Zi is not bad, she is not as good as her direct brother. Although she vaguely guessed that it might be Fengchun, of course she would not demolish Fengchun's platform.

However, in the matter of the immortal son, Yaoguang first came to invite Xuanhong. Originally, Yuanxiu did not have to go, but Feng Chun sent an order to ask him to go... After Yuanxiu fell out with Xuanhong and Xue, he couldn't help but suspect that Fengchun knew about the eldest son. Tete let himself go.

It's just that the eldest son knows that Yuanxiu is the emperor's daughter, but his attitude is still so arrogant... The eldest son may not know Yuanxiu's temperament, but Fengchun may not know! In this case, Fengchun asked Yuanxiu and the eldest son to leave angrily just face-to-face, but why?

If it is placed in an ordinary family, Yuan Xiu has any doubts in his heart and just ask his brother directly. However, born in the royal family, no matter who's mind is always used to turning around, Yuan Xiu knows that Feng Chun has no intention of murdering himself. She has been praised by people around her for being intelligent and clever since she was a child, and even "pretentiously the style of a Chinese empress dowager". Although it was not obvious, he was quite conceited, especially in front of his brother, who was all from a mother. When he was a child, Fengchun personally pointed out the red calligraphy. In this way, Yuan Xiu felt that it would be too useless if he was about to pester his brother to teach everywhere.

She left Xiang Fengchun to understand this road. After thinking about it, she thought of Du's body.

Judging from the situation at that time, Princess Pingjin lost her in the palace during the funeral of Empress Dowager Zhaoxian. Naturally, the first person to bear the responsibility was the Empress Wang, and at that time, she was still found by the people around Princess Yang, who had a grudge against Princess Pingjin. Although she found that she was an old mother, she decisively dragged away several other young people who had never seen before. The maid of honor reported to Princess Yang in time, and Princess Yang found Princess Changyang again. In the end, the matter was dragged to Yuan Xiu's body... There were many suspicious things in the middle - first, Princess Yang and Lu Lifei were like enemies, and it was not too much to say that you and I would live - it was said that Lu Lifei was originally outside Princess Pingjin. There may also be a male child. As a result, when he was dissatisfied and the fetal position was unstable in the first three months, he was hit by the young King of Qi when he was chasing and playing, and then he had a miscarry! Not only did he have his children, but because the king of Qi used a lot of force and the position he hit was tricky, and Concubine Lu was not pregnant after that. This hatred was not fake.

Although it seems that Concubine Lu suffered a great loss in this matter, Concubine Lu's position and family power are much higher than that of Concubine Yang. Since then, Concubine Yang has suffered all the open guns and hidden arrows in the palace. When the Empress Dowager Wenhua was there, she walked to maintain her strength. When Wang Huifei presided over the sixth palace, because Lu Lifei was in the same position with her, although Emperor Xianzong had a clear purpose Wang Huifei was the same lieutenant, but Wang Huifei, like Lu Lifei, had the same five surnames and seven families. She was not the queen. At that time, Princess Yang's life was even more sad.

Not to mention that the king of Qi, the king of Qi, who survived by Emperor Xianzong, is second only to the king according to the age of Emperor Xianzong, but in terms of canonization, it is a great delay. Not only that, the king of Qi married a concubine when he was old. Lu Lifei instigated Emperor Xianzong and chose Mingjing from many girls to be selected. ——The direct daughter of the eldest grandson's parents' room is worthy of being a princess in terms of identity, but this eldest grandson Mingjing has a fierce temperament and a goodshou wan. She was born in Chang'an. She was born bright, but many families don't want to marry her as a child. Because these girls enter the door, if her husband is more cowardly, he will be afraid in the future. If you want to live with the look of a child woman, if Lang Jun is also powerful, he is afraid that the two will not live a good life after quarreling all day long... Just looking at the relationship between the king of Qi and the princess now shows the intention of Lu Lifei!

The king of Qi is weak and the princess is strong. From the perspective of Princess Yang, even if the eldest grandson Mingjing gave birth to her direct grandson, she is not very satisfied with this child. According to reason, in the matter of Princess Pingjin, Princess Yang should not have been so cautious - moreover, it was not Princess Yang at first. Shen, it's the mother beside Princess Yang!

Yuanxiu thought of this at that time, and naturally thought of one thing - that is, the close mother beside Princess Yang was clear about the resentment between Princess Yang and Lu Lifei and Princess Pingjin by Lu Lifei. The old mother who has been in the palace for many years is clear about what happened, but after all, a servant woman's eyes were there, and in a short time Sometimes I didn't think that Princess Pingjin was tricked. After all, Princess Pingjin's reputation is in Chang'an... So, I'm afraid it's not Pingjin, but the child who let the M Mother choose to be cautious!

And Princess Yang later motioned Princess Changyang to drag Yuanxiu into the water, and I'm afraid it has something to do with this - Yuan Xiu remembered that when Changyang and Princess Yang mentioned the child, they used an inadvertent tone, as if they wanted to deliberately ignore it. In fact, such a humble identity as the child was indeed not suitable to be mentioned from the princess of a country, but Yuan Xiusheng thought too much when he was suspicious.

The next day, she went to Penglai Hall to ask about Wang. Sure enough, she came up with a clue.

Now it seems that this Mu Wangzi was arranged into the palace by Guo Shilang before Emperor Xianzong passed away. The purpose is self-evident... In this way, Fengchun can successfully ascend the throne and has never been taken the throne by Li Yan. There is indeed a shadow of the Guo family behind it!

And Guo Shilang was 17 years old when the incident happened in the Guo family - he was already the youngest son of Guo Shou. According to the dream of Tang Lv, men under 16 or 80 years old, and women under 16 or 60 years old can be exempted from punishment or beheaded. Guo Shilang is the son of Guo Shou's direct relatives and has passed 16 years old. , he was inevitable to die. Later, Emperor Xianzong pardoned him for the death of the Empress Dowager Wenhua, which was also regarded as a wisp of incense for the Duke of Fenyang County. The 17-year-old Guo Shou was able to reach back to the deep palace a few years later... Naturally, he would not start from scratch, but must have collected the old department of the Guo family!

And the Guo family did not try their best to resist when they were killed. Perhaps the reason is here...

Yuanxiu frowned and thought deeply. She always felt that she seemed to have missed something... The Guo family did not resist too much. Although Guo Shiwu stood up soon and could help Fengchun, the rest of the Guo family... Since Guo Shou, his wife and concubines and children, including their great-grandchildren, who were only six years old at that time, died on the execution ground or On the way to exile...

For a Guo Shilang alone, how could the direct line of Fenyang County have to sacrifice so much?
