It happened in the first year of Taikang. Although the women and children of the Fang family in Yangcheng didn't know the details, they all heard about it.
The prince was weak since he was a child, and died of a sudden illness three years ago. The emperor was overwhelmed with grief and fell ill. At that time, the king of Qi who happened to come to Beijing to pay respects to the queen's birthday, the emperor proclaimed the king of Qi as the prince on the sick bed, and replaced the prince to inherit the throne. System.
There was a sudden uproar when the incident happened.
One is because of the sudden death of the prince, but the death of the prince was not too sudden. Everyone knew that the prince was born with a hidden disease.
There was a dispute when he was established as the prince, but the emperor resisted all opinions and insisted on making him the prince on the grounds of agreeing to the former empress and the eldest son of the prince. The prince has been in poor health for so many years, but he collapsed under the care of many imperial doctors. She was also safe and sound, but in the end it was an illness. Although the death was surprising, it was not a shock.
What really shocked the courtiers was that the prince already had an heir, but the emperor abandoned the emperor's grandson and became the king of Qi.
At that time, the grandson of the emperor was three years old. The emperor said that the country depends on the elder, so he insisted on establishing the king of Qi, and after the announcement, he abdicated and let the king of Qi inherit the general rule.
A group of courtiers begged the emperor to take back the imperial edict in front of the imperial city, in the name of righteousness.
The Supreme Emperor fainted from anger, and the new emperor personally comforted the courtiers. When the two sides were at a stalemate, Lu Yunqi, a hundred households of Jinyiwei, charged the courtiers with disobedience, and led the Jinyiwei to order the courtiers to retreat, or they would be killed.
In the hundred years of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it has never been possible to punish a doctor. The court officials did not believe that Jin Yiwei dared to be so bold, and refused to retreat for a while. As a result, Lu Yunqi really ordered to do it, and the blood flowed like a river on the spot.
"Although the emperor later condemned Lu Yunqi's prison in the sky, but a year later, the Supreme Emperor died of illness and amnesty the world. His last words said that Lu Yunqi was loyal and was released. He also married the princess and continued to work in Jinyiwei against the usual practice. After two years of work, he has been promoted. In charge of punishing thousands of households for Beizhen Fusi." The senior official said, his voice lowered unconsciously when he said this, "No one in the world knows what this means, the emperor does not allow royal affairs to be discussed. "
"That's right, that Lu Qianhu is a brutal person. Under his control, Jinyiwei is spread all over the place, and they are all-pervasive. Don't talk nonsense." Mrs. Fang also lowered her voice, "Our Fang family can withstand the turmoil of the business, but I can't stand the toss of those people."
The senior officer nodded.
"Those people are dying from their injuries, but they must not be provoked." He said solemnly.
Because of the family situation, although the three young ladies of the Fang family were women, they were not brought up as boudoir girls who didn't go out of their homes. Instead, they wanted to learn business and go to the ticket office, so they were very aware of the pros and cons of world affairs.
Especially as a merchant, he knows how to break the door and kill the magistrate.
They also described it as dignified, and Fang Jinxiu was still angry.
"She, Jun Zhenzhen, will die if she wants to die. She can't take our family with her." She said.
"She doesn't know the depth, so she inquired about these things for fun, and I told her to explain the pros and cons." Mrs. Fang said after plastic surgery.
The executive hesitated again.
"She." He said, "I still have to ask King Huai..."
As soon as this remark came out, Old Madam Fang dropped the teacup in her hand to the ground, and the already nervous person couldn't help but tremble from the sudden fright.
"This bastard!" Old Madam Fang scolded coldly, "It's still dead and clean."
There was no sound in the room, but Fang Jinxiu was a little puzzled. The word Huai Wang actually made the old lady so angry? The name King Huai was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember it for a while, so she couldn't help but look at Fang Yuxiu.
Fang Yuxiu understood.
"King Huai is the grandson of the former emperor." She moved closer to Fang Jinxiu's ear and lowered her voice, "After the first prince died of illness, the princess and concubine hanged herself to be buried with her. Their three-year-old son was named King Huai by the emperor."
Fang Jinxiu took a deep breath.
Talking about the emperor is already a disaster, but she is even more daring to inquire about the person who was supposed to be the emperor.
"This bastard, does she want our Fang family to be beaten to death by Jin Yiwei?" She scolded, "Does she know what she's doing?"
…
Miss Jun looked at the short couple in front of her and sighed softly, and put down the teacup she had held for a long time, her fingers were a little stiff from the force.
"Miss, if you want to ask about interesting things about the capital, let's go outside and find someone to ask. There are plenty of people in charge of the ticket office." Liu Er said.
Miss Jun shook her head.
"No, I'm just asking casually." She said, looking at Liu'er with a smile, "What does the matter in the capital have to do with me? It's so far away."
It's so far, so far, and so dangerous. Before the time, you can't ask easily, and you can't ask if you are not sure enough.
Hold back.
I couldn't hold back this time, it was already going to be a little troublesome.
That's true, the capital is so far away, so it really has nothing to do with them, so Liu'er put it aside and asked nothing. , "The curse of cutting off children and grandchildren is considered a temporary anger, but three people become tigers, and if there are too many people talking, it becomes a curse. This Fang family is an unlucky place."
Miss Jun laughed.
This little girl is also stupid when she says she is stupid, and she is smart when she says she is smart, but stupid and smart are always used in wrong places.
"You don't want to be here yet," she said, "and they don't want to keep us either."
Even if it is a leaky boat, it is not easy to board it.
When the maid came to report that Miss Jun had returned to the inner courtyard, old lady Fang's room had returned to calm.
The broken teacups on the floor were cleared away, the executive and the three young ladies had already gone to the study next door to reconcile the accounts, and Mrs. Fang poured out a pill from a porcelain bottle and served it to Mrs. Fang to eat.
"Mother, don't be angry, Zhenzhen is ignorant and doesn't know the pros and cons, I'll go and have a good talk with her." She said softly.
Old lady Fang smiled.
"I'm not angry." She said, "There's nothing to be angry about. If I were angry about everything, I would have been angry to death eighteen years ago."
Eighteen years ago, Mrs. Fang Fang Shouyi died of a sudden illness.
It was from then on that the Fang family's bad luck began.
Mrs. Fang couldn't help tensing up when she thought of these things.
"It's been more than ten years, and you still can't bear it." Seeing her reaction, Mrs. Fang frowned and said, "How can I close my eyes?"
Thirteen years ago, the loving couple were separated by Yin and Yang, and Uncle Fang, Fang Nianjun, died without leaving a word because of his serious injury.
Mrs. Fang's eyes were reddish and she bowed her head in yes.
"Don't think about the past, it's useless to think about it, let's look forward, life will be lived no matter what." Mrs. Fang said.
When it comes to looking forward, Mrs. Fang's expression is even more sad.
The only son died soon, and she only felt that the future was bleak.
There was also a trace of grief and indignation in Old Madam Fang's eyes.
"A few days ago, there was news that Dr. Zhang appeared in Lingnan. I have asked people to search for it. As long as Dr. Zhang is found, Cheng Yu can still be saved." She said.
