Xie Yunqing had been staring at Xiao Xuan's expression. Xiao Xuan's cynical smile gradually disappeared after hearing her words, and a moment of gloom and ferociousness flashed across his eyes.
If the girls who Surili admired him saw his eyes, I wonder if they would get goose bumps.
Xiao Xuan lowered his voice and said, "Then tell me, what is the thing I have been looking for?"
Xie Yunqing pinned a strand of broken hair behind her ears. He was not at all frightened by Xiao Xuan’s tone. Instead, he said slowly: "You and your subordinates are so cautious, which means that you have been searching for that thing in secret. Find out first, it may bring you a murderous disaster."
She analyzed it slowly.
"Think carefully, is there something that has such a big impact that you can make you be so careful, but you have to look for it?"
"I want to be able to fight the emperor's handle."
After Xie Yunqing finished speaking, he felt the air in the pavilion stagnated in an instant. The handsome young man opposite, staring at him with piercing eyes, made Xie Yunqing feel a little breathless.
Xie Yunqing took a breath and tried hard to ignore the pressure from the young man. "I have heard from the people that the prince's candidate was the father of the little prince and the deceased Prince Yu. There was even an order to make Prince Yu the prince. However, after the death of the first emperor, the decree was You must be the prince today."
After a pause, he continued: "The first emperor's imperial edict, only a few important officials have read it, little prince, do you think that the edict is the first emperor's will or is it today's handwriting? Or..." Xie Yunqing He also lowered his voice, a fascinating scent in his voice, "The emperor has another edict, and what you have been looking for is that last edict."
Xie Yunqing finished speaking, did not continue, neither of them spoke. Xie Yunqing was not in a hurry. Instead, she picked up the glass cup and looked at the transparent green tea in the glass cup. She gently shook the glass cup in her hand. The tea water shook slightly, and the fragrance of the tea leaves floated around.
After a while, Xiao Xuan asked in a dumb voice, "How did you know this? When the first emperor died, neither of you nor me was born. Moreover, these things can't be told in the open. , Where did you hear it?"
He said "know" rather than "guess", which shows that what Xie Yunqing just said is the truth.
Xie Yunqing breathed a sigh of relief in her heart for some reason. Xiao Xuan's attitude made her somewhat certain that Xiao Xuan would not kill her.
"There is no impermeable wall in the world. There are rumors everywhere in the palace and alleys of the city. I just made a random guess based on what I heard. It seems that I guessed it correctly?" Xie Yunqing wrote lightly. "I heard from my uncle that Prince Yu was also a man of poetry and wine, but it was a pity that he died young. The little prince would not really think that Prince Yu died in an accident, right?"
There are different opinions on the cause of the death of Prince Yu.
It is said that Prince Yu was shot by Liu Arrow when he was leading the war, and the tip of the arrow was very poisonous. Prince Yu had to gouge the meat at that time, but he still failed to prevent the toxin from spreading, and Prince Yu died immediately. It is also said that the prince Yu was hacked to death by the savage Huns.
Xie Yunqing also listened to Xiao Yu in his previous life
Discussed by the disciples before they knew the true cause of Prince Yu’s death.
At that time, she was sitting next to Xiao Yu, listening to the people discussing the truth about the death of a generation of wise kings. It was clear that it was the summer of August. Xie Yunqing only felt that the bones had become gloomy and cold, and everything in front of her seemed dark and terrible.
She couldn't imagine why the legendary figure as stalwart as the god of heaven died just like that in the most eerie power struggle.
Xie Yunqing's teeth trembled a little. She calmed down for a while before she calmly said: "Prince Yu was shot by two poisoned cold arrows. One hit the shoulder and the other hit the lower back. The cold arrow hit. No part is fatal. What is really fatal is the poison on the arrow."
"As soon as the poison entered the blood, it spread around the body. When Prince Yu died, he was uncomfortable. The little prince also remembered that time, he should have seen his father's body."
Xiao Xuan closed his eyes, he would never forget his father's appearance in his life.
The always tall and mighty father, lying in an ice coffin with a terrifying face, the flesh of the whole body is stretched open, there is no good place in the whole body, there is no way to see the original face, only a dark purple swelling stranger is left. Corpse.
Mother just glanced at it and fainted. He went up to observe the corpse in the ice coffin carefully. He was lucky, and he felt that the person in the ice coffin must not be his father. However, the small mole behind the left ear and the obvious scar on the tiger's mouth on the right hand cruelly told him that the man was his father.
My father was killed by poisoned arrows, but the two poisoned arrows did not come from the enemy.
When Xiao Xuan was a little older, he asked his father's subordinate Feng Fei. Feng Fei, a man who had come from the battlefield, had tears in his eyes. He trembled and told him that he checked the two cold arrows afterwards and found that the design of the arrows was Although it is the same as the arrows used by the Huns, there are differences in subtleties. The most important thing is that the two cold arrows were obviously just polished. Moreover, the Huns never used poison when they fought with them, and they seem to disdain to use poison.
Feng Fei guessed that the two arrows came from his comrades-in-arms.
Xiao Xuan's heart became cold when he heard it at the time. He was young and his political sensitivity was not enough, but he could vaguely guess that his father's death was not an accident, but someone deliberately did it.
Older, he began to win over the generals and secret guards left by his father, and set out to investigate the truth of his father's death. Feng Fei had already given him the two poisonous arrows that shot his father, and Xiao Xuan asked him to find the archercaster who shot these arrows, only to find that the archercaster's family had been destroyed long ago. Xiao Xuan felt that his father's death came from a huge conspiracy.
Although this clue was broken, Xiao Xuan did not give up looking for an answer.
He went to greet the Queen Mother once, and wandered around the palace in a bored time. When he reached a remote palace, he was about to turn around and leave when he heard two mothers talking.
"The little prince is here again, and the queen mother loves him so much, don't get used to him as a little overlord."
Xiao Xuan curled his mouth at the time. He claimed that he was surrounded by the wind in Yushu, suave and unrestrained, how could he look like a little overlord? He was about to start to scare the two women, when he heard the other sigh, and said: "It would be a blessing for the little prince to become an unlearned dude king and grandson, if it is true.
Like the deceased prince, it really brought himself a murderous disaster. "
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh do you say these things for no reason? let others hear, maybe we die first?"
"I've lived so old, and there are no children to worry about. Are you still afraid of death?" The mother's tone was full of vicissitudes and desolation, and her hoarse voice in Xiao Xuan's ears undoubtedly set off stormy waves.
Because of the imperial grandmother's favor, he has been going to the deep palace at will. For the emperor, he regards the emperor as a respected elder. However, what the mother said made Xiao Xuan react to something in an instant.
Why, the two poisoned cold arrows that hit his father weren't the emperor's instruction
He had already been familiar with history books at that time, and had long been familiar with the dark methods of impregnation by the royal family. He hadn't thought about this before. After two mothers reminded him that he was initiating, he suddenly realized that he had been fully protected by the emperor's grandmother, and the emperor took special care of him, but the emperor really cares about him
Since childhood, the emperor seemed to treat him better than his own son.
At the very least, the princes were distracted in class. The emperor knew that they would be punished to kneel for half an hour under the hot sun, and even if he skipped class, even if the emperor grandmother wanted to punish him, the emperor was the first to stand up for him. Pleading.
"Xuan'er is still young, and her mother is still preaching. If she is punished and hurts the child's body, the gain will not be worth the loss."
Now think about it, the emperor's upbringing of him at that time used the means of killing him.
The goal of the emperor is to train him into a dude who only knows pleasure and has no ambition.
From then on, Xiao Xuan seemed to have discovered the fun outside the palace. He was free from the restrictions of the palace rules and the imperial grandmother. In the worst case, Xiao Xuan beat Gao Guifei's nephew to a fracture in order to test the patience of the emperor to him.
Concubine Gao Gui ran to the emperor and cried, but the emperor who had always favored Concubine Gao did not follow Concubine Gao. Instead, he rebuked her for not knowing the rules. After the concubine Gao was sent back, he sent a bunch of novel things from Donghai. To Xiao Xuan.
Xiao Xuan finally knew that in the emperor's heart, he was jealous of himself.
Thinking of these past events, Xiao Xuan didn't seem to have any movement on his face, but his tight lips revealed that he was not at all calm at this moment.
"I naturally remember my father's legacy, which I want to forget but dare not forget, but," Xiao Xuan gazes on Xie Yunqing's beautiful little face, "how do you know these?"
The reason for the death of Prince Yu, there are different opinions in Beijing, but when it comes to the real cause of death, not many people can accurately say.
Xie Yunqing was still calm and calm under such gaze, “Many of the soldiers led by Prince Yu at that time were later incorporated into my father’s subordinates. They had witnessed the whole process of Prince Yu’s death from murder to painful death. There is lieutenant Feng’s guess."
Xiao Xuan's slender fingers tapped the tabletop lightly, and a crisp sound flowed from his fingertips. Xiao Xuan didn’t believe in Xie Yunqing’s words, but she knew that the girl would not tell him the truth, but she was reluctant to pursue it. She just regained her usual lazy tone and said, “Then, where is the thing I’m looking for? ?"
