"Your Highness, please speak." Xiao Hou coughed lowly. Although his face was pale, his expression was very focused.
"This matter has to start from twenty-two years ago. Back then, the Luo family was a well-known scholarly family, with peaches and plums all over the world, and many of the students he taught had basically become officials in the imperial court. At that time, the reputation of the Luo family was a major factor for the entire Xixuan family. Everyone knows everyone, and the Luo family has not only produced a lot of champions, but also several generals, participated in several large-scale battles, guarded our country in Xixuan, and became famous and known to everyone. The people of the Luo family are not only capable of literature but also martial arts."
The original high tone, when he said this, suddenly turned to lament, "However, fortune and misfortune depend on this, and because of this, the reputation of the Luo family is so great that the emperor who had just ascended the throne a few years ago was jealous, because at the beginning His foundation is not yet solid, plus he was at a loss before he came to power, and his manpower and material resources are still being adjusted, so on the surface he appreciates the Luo family very much, but secretly he is very dissatisfied with the Luo family."
"And exactly one year, the emperor made a private visit, and happened to meet Sisi, who was separated from me while shopping the lanterns, that is, your mother. Back then, your mother was a talented girl who was famous in Kyoto. Whether it is a disciple of a high school or an ordinary person, it is impossible not to be attracted to her, so the emperor fell in love with her at first sight."
The next part of the story is that the emperor sent someone to investigate the identity of this woman. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the daughter of the Luo family, the Luo family he had always wanted to eradicate, and this woman had already been betrothed to someone else. And the marriage contract, the whole day is not thinking about the tea and the rice is not fragrant.
At this time, Fu Jianrong, who was still a little Shangshu, was the father of Concubine Yue, the current right minister, knowing the emperor's thoughts, he came up with an idea, that is to make up a crime at will to punish the Luo family, which can be eradicated. The Luo family can still hold beautiful people back, and the emperor in a high position has long been accustomed to the days when he can get what he wants. The best of both worlds makes him happy, and he immediately secretly ordered him to do it.
Later, the Luo family was wronged and the Wang family was destroyed, and the Fu family also successfully squeezed out the Luo family and filled a lot of official positions.
Wang Yu's remarks not only shocked everyone on the spot, the most obvious one was Xiao Hou, his trembling fingers were full of disbelief, "It was the father and the Fu family who framed the Luo family back then?"
Wang Yu thought that he was frightened when he first learned about this, and his expression became even more gentle, and said softly, "Yeah, it is because of them that I have never appeared in front of you to let you know about it. , people don't fight with heaven, the emperor is the heaven of this country, no matter how powerful you are, you can't win against him, I believe your mother didn't tell you the truth, just to prevent you from falling into this muddy water , so that you can grow up in peace."
Except for Wang Yu who was in the dark, everyone present looked at the person on the couch with great concern.
If what Wang Yu said is true, then over the years, Wang Ye has spent all his time planning and plotting against the Liang family and Xiao Xu. Isn't he taking revenge for his mistakes
Xiao Hou's eyes are cold, but if you look carefully, you can see the turmoil in his eyes, he said in a low voice, word by word, "This king has found out that the Luo family and the Liang family were the generals who sent troops to expedition. There was a dispute over the selection, the children of the two families were in trouble and a dispute broke out. A young soldier from the Liang family was killed in it, so the Liang family held a grudge and framed the Luo family. They were also beheaded by Liang Xiangsi, why is what you said contradicting what this king knows?"
Wang Yu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that he actually knew a lot about what happened that year. Unlike what he thought he knew nothing, his expression was more serious, and he told everything that happened that year.
"At that time, the Liang family and the Luo family did have a festival, and it was very deep, but this was not enough for the Liang family to be cruel to the Luo family. Maybe His Royal Highness only knew that the Liang family lost a soldier that year, but not the Luo family. There were three children who couldn't pick up weapons after that fight, so the two families have reconciled privately in order to prevent the matter from escalating, and this is what I heard from your mother herself."
"His Royal Highness may not believe my one-sided words, but I have a physical evidence here to prove who the person who shot at the Wang family was." Wang Yu took out a long box the size of a slap from his arms, and Lin Jiangdong stepped forward to take it. Send it to the king.
The wooden box was opened to reveal what was inside. It was a rusted half-iron arrow. At the tip of the arrow, there was an imprint. Although the imprint was a little blurry from the age, it could be recognized otherwise, what was written on it.
A vietnamese.
Lin Jiangdong picked up the iron arrow as if he had remembered something, and hurriedly said, "Your Highness, when Your Majesty was still the Crown Prince, there was a team of dark guards with superb archery skills, and their arrow tips were engraved with such imprints, the word Yue means Your Majesty. One of the names is taboo.”
"That's right, it was such a skilled archer who slaughtered the entire family of our Wang family back then." When Wang Yu said this, his expression was desolate and sad.
Xiao Hou looked away from the iron arrow and narrowed his eyes at Wang Yu, "Just based on this iron arrow and your words, do you think this king will easily believe you?"
As if he had expected him to say this, Wang Yu said, "Fifteen years ago, foreign enemies invaded our country, and a team of tens of thousands was inexplicably destroyed, and there were many sons of your Luo family. Your Highness can check the failed battle. Is it God's will or man-made."
"What do you mean?" Xiao Hou looked surprised.
"Although the Luo family's credit was made in the past, the nine families of the Zhulian family were replaced with only the direct line of the Luo family, so that the other collaterals were still spared, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the life crime is inevitable. The men were all assigned to the frontier. However, His Highness has ever discovered that after so many years, how many of the Luo family's sons survived? Either they died of illness or died of accidents. Do you think there is such a coincidence? The person sitting on the dragon chair opened one eye and closed the other, the Luo family, including those students, at least thousands of people, how could they have disappeared so cleanly in just a few short years?"
As soon as Wang Yu finished speaking, he saw blood dripping from the corner of Xiao Hou's mouth. He hurried forward and was stopped by someone, so he could only anxiously say to him, "It's my fault, I shouldn't tell you this, your body —"
"No, you said it well, let me know for so many years, I just recognized the thief as my father, and even took revenge on the wrong person."
Xiao Hou slowly finished saying this sentence, his eyes were full of absurdity, and then he spit out a mouthful of blood, and the whole person suddenly fell into darkness.
"My lord—"
