Just talking about these two issues made Jun Zisheng get angry, but thanks to Xiao Xu's analysis, he has sorted out a lot of headaches in the past few days, at least it won't look like a headless thread anymore. Ball, can't catch a little thought.
Just between drinking tea, Jun Zisheng couldn't hold back his temper, and repeatedly ordered Lao Bai to investigate the poisoning of the late emperor, the mysterious death of the emperor's younger brother and sister, and the mastermind behind the spread of rumors.
Xiao Xu was not in a hurry, and after he finished his instructions, he spoke slowly again.
"One more thing, it's about the harem concubines."
Jun Zisheng immediately sat upright, "The King of England doesn't have to worry about me, but it's okay to say it."
Xiao Xu didn't intend to be polite to him either. He leaned back in the chair leisurely, and said with a lazy expression, "I heard that Concubine Xiao Shu was not born as a beautiful girl before, and she has not been selected. I don't know if this is true or not?"
Concubine Xiao Shu is the mother concubine of King Jing, born to Grandpa Junzisheng.
"I'm not very clear about this matter," Jun Zisheng shook his head, but he turned to Lao Bai and said, "You should be clear about this matter, come and talk to King Ying."
Lao Bai has always followed Jun Zisheng, and Xiao Xu's words just now have cleared away the dark clouds shrouded in the capital, and he has already admired Xiao Xu. When he mentioned the matter of Concubine Xiao Shu, he wanted to explain, Now that he saw his Highness asking, he didn't hide it, and immediately replied.
"Concubine Xiao Shu is indeed not selected through a serious selection of women, because the women in Junlan and Ji, officials and women with an official position above the second rank, if they are not married, they can send a direct daughter to the palace to participate in the selection of concubine. Concubine Xiao was at her age. Although she is already married, she has a childhood sweetheart playmate and got engaged very early, so she did not run for election."
Speaking of this, Lao Bai couldn't help but pause, as if he was trying to say how to go on.
Jun Zisheng listened carefully, but when he saw that he suddenly stopped, he was a little puzzled, "Lao Bai, hurry up, don't hesitate, why did Concubine Xiao Shu appear in the harem after missing the selection?"
He didn't think Xiao Xu would ask such a question casually, it must be useful to mention it, so he was a little dissatisfied with Lao Bai's hesitation.
Xiao Xu smiled lowly, "It should be a coincidence that Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty saw Concubine Xiao Shu and was incorporated into the harem."
Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty was the emperor's title of Grandpa Junzisheng.
Lao Bai didn't expect that Xiao Xu would actually know, he smiled shyly, and said to his Majesty, "The King of Ying said is not bad, after the selection of the females, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and His Majesty Mingxuan took important officials to the lake, just when he saw him going out to play. Concubine Xiao Shu admired her beauty and talent, so she ordered someone to inquire, because she is the king of a country, so Concubine Xiao's parents did not dare to disobey at that time, so they sent their daughter to the palace."
"What? Grandpa Huang doesn't know that Concubine Xiao Shu has a marriage contract?" Jun Zisheng was very surprised.
Lao Bai smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, how dare a courtier to disobey the person that His Majesty Ming Xuan was interested in at that time, I just heard that Concubine Xiao Shu heard the marriage and cried for several days, and the so-called fiance's family was taken away from the capital after hearing about it. For fear of causing trouble."
The ruler lets the subject die, and the subject cannot live without death. This is the truth.
How can a courtier dare to oppose the emperor.
Jun Zisheng knew that Grandpa Huang was romantic, but at that time he didn't know that there was still a matter of seizing someone else's fiancee.
It's just that he didn't understand, "King Ying, does this have anything to do with our plan?"
Xiao Xu listened to the conversation between their monarch and minister, and his expression was a little mocking at this time, "Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry, this matter is very important, and the key is that it can help you solve a person."
The gentleman was overjoyed, "The King of Ying will come quickly."
Xiao Xu turned his head to look at Lao Bai, he remembered that this man had served the late emperor, "I wonder if Mr. Lao has checked the records of Ming Xuan emperor's sleeping records when he was in power?"
"Never." Lao Bai answered truthfully.
"Then do you know the exact time of King Jing's birth?" Xiao Xu asked again.
"I know." Lao Bai replied that although he was a slave beside the late emperor at that time, as a confidant in front of his master at that time, he had to know all the circumstances of his rival's competitors, so what he knew was not only about King Jing, but also about King Jing. The specific birthdays of King Jin, King Ze, and King Ping.
"Okay, then you go to the table and take out the third bedtime record on the right, and find the bedtime date before Concubine Xiao Shu's pregnancy." Xiao Xu ordered.
Although Xiao Xu was not his master, when he opened his mouth, he couldn't help but follow his orders.
Lao Bai was astonished, this man had an aura that was not angry and mighty, even stronger than his majesty.
Lao Bai picked up the records of the sleeping quarters and found the records before pregnancy, but when he turned it over, he found that the most recent page was missing. When he opened the book, he found traces of torn, and he was a little confused. , that page is gone."
Jun Zisheng frowned, "Why did he disappear?" As soon as the words fell, he remembered Xiao Xu's previous question, that Xiao Xu would not mention the matter of the harem's concubine serving the bed for no reason, and then looked at Xiao Xu in shock.
"Are you suspecting that the second emperor's uncle is not the son of the emperor's grandfather?" As soon as these words came out, Lao Bai and others all changed color.
Xiao Xu replied calmly, "This king didn't say that."
Jun Zisheng immediately turned his head and asked Lao Bai, "When was the second uncle born?"
Lao Bai immediately replied, "The twelfth month of the twelfth lunar month, the missing record of sleeping in the bed is March." There was a difference of nine months, and it was heard that King Jing was born prematurely.
Huo Ling, who was in charge of investigating the matter, said, "The record in March was lost, and it happened that the subordinates found out that Emperor Xuan of Ming signed an agreement in March because his territory was occupied by a neighboring country. He was in a bad mood and was drunk for three or four nights. One night She stayed in Concubine Xiao Shu's palace, but whether she served or not was on the record. But it was a coincidence that King Jing's midwife was found by her subordinates. According to her, King Jing was not less than a month old. , but was born in the tenth month of pregnancy."
Huo Ling looked at them and continued, "In February, Concubine Xiao Shu asked Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty to go home to save her relatives. At that time, her childhood sweetheart, Young Master Lin, also returned to Kyoto."
As soon as these words came out, it was undoubtedly a thunderbolt.
If King Jing was born at full term, but Concubine Xiao Shu was not in the palace in February, and Concubine Xiao Shu claimed that the child was less than a month old, the record of sleeping in March would disappear.
Jun Zisheng clenched the armrest fiercely, not expecting such a nasty thing to happen to their royal family.
The concubine **** the harem was found after two generations.
And that fake prince is now a vassal king, and he has the ability to threaten the royal family!
"Although Concubine Xiao Shu is dead, that Young Master Lin is still alive." Xiao Xu said suddenly.
"Lao Bai, go and bring that Young Master Lin back to me!" Jun Zisheng was angry.
"Yes!" Lao Bai responded, looking up at Xiao Xu, who had a light face I couldn't help shaking my body.
