"Master, this time it was the Northwest Army that went to southern Xinjiang to quell the chaos. It is supposed to be such a big deal. Lord Long Live should have sent the Huguang Army, which he trusts more, to go there. Why did he send the Northwest Army?" Pang Yi and Gu Changlin had a drink. Then he asked Zhong Mingwei again. "Also, the relationship between Lord Long Live and Prince Pingxi has always been delicate, but this time the chaos in southern Xinjiang was quelled. King Pingxi is going all out. Lord Long Live also trusts him completely, which is puzzling."
"I also find it strange that King Pingxi has always only cared about the affairs of the northwest. He has always been indifferent to the affairs of other places, but this time he came back to Beijing from a long distance. Looks like he came here for the chaos in southern Xinjiang " Zhong Mingwei said, with a puzzled expression on his face, "Even if he was the first to notice the change in southern Xinjiang, it was nothing more than a secret letter sent to the capital. Why did he have to come by himself? Especially when he is in his thirties I haven’t been back to Beijing for a year.”
"Isn't the Queen Mother going to celebrate her 70th birthday? Maybe King Pingxi wants to come back to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday. So he also took care of the chaos." Pang Yi said.
"You mean, King Pingxi came here to give the queen mother this great gift?" Zhong Mingwei looked at Pang Yi. "Captured Xu Chengjin alive and destroyed the Xu family with one hand?"
"That's true. King Pingxi hasn't returned to Beijing for more than 30 years. It's really unexpected to send such a big gift to the Queen Mother as soon as he returned to Beijing," Pang Yi was startled and then nodded. While taking a sip of wine, he frowned again and said, "I heard that the queen mother and the first emperor loved King Pingxi the most in the past, and even wanted to make King Pingxi the crown prince, but later, by accident, King Pingxi went to the northwest. However, Long Live Lord has become the emperor, but over the years, King Pingxi has always been filial and respectful to the Queen Mother. Whenever there are festivals and celebrations in the northwest, there will be big gifts arriving in Beijing. Every autumn, the yellow sheep that the Queen Mother loves to eat has never been cut off. What do you think of King Pingxi? They're all filial, but it's really unexpected that such a trick came out of nowhere."
"You can see that they are loving mothers and filial sons, maybe they are entangled in places you can't see," Gu Changlin, who had been drinking quietly, said suddenly, "King Pingxi has not returned to Beijing for more than 30 years. With such a large sum of money, the Queen Mother almost lost her life, so it can be seen that there is something in the bottom of my heart, and I have been holding it back for more than thirty years."
After everyone listened, they were all silent. After a while, Xiao An spoke first. She looked at Zhong Mingwei with some hesitation, paused, and then whispered: "When I was young, when my parents were talking in the study, I listened to you. After listening to it, they said yes... At that time, the former emperor and the queen mother wanted King Pingxi to be the crown prince, and they also planned to marry Xu's daughter-in-law to King Pingxi. Chazi, the Turkic army was pressing down on the border, the Northwest was defeated like a mountain, and the morale of the army was shaken. At that time, a prince was urgently needed to enter the Northwest. One was to command the army to kill the enemy, and the other was to boost morale and stabilize the morale of the army. They all coveted the throne covetously, and no one was willing to leave the capital. The first emperor was so angry that he vomited blood in the court. Later, King Pingxi, who was only sixteen years old at the time, stood up. The only way is to seal him as the Great General of Zhenxi and go to the northwest. Not long after he left, the first emperor died suddenly, and then the Xu family supported Long Live to ascend the throne, and then the Xu family's daughter-in-law and mother were honored in the world, and King Pingxi has never returned since then."
"You mean, Lord Long Live robbed King Pingxi's fiancée?" Meiya understood, "So King Pingxi didn't return for more than 30 years in a fit of anger, and even...he's nearly 50 years old and hasn't married yet. ?”
Xiao An looked at Zhong Mingwei's face and shook her head in a hurry: "I just heard that I was young at the time, only four or five years old, and I don't know if it's true or not."
"I think it's possible," Gu Changlin said slowly while pouring wine, "The former emperor clearly meant that when King Pingxi returned triumphantly, he would marry Xu's daughter-in-law. The daughter of the family, who has made outstanding achievements, is also a logical thing to become the crown prince. Who knows that King Pingxi went to the northwest, and the capital was in chaos. With the help of the family of the Xu family, all obstacles were quickly cleared away, and all the princes died and were disabled, and finally he became the emperor, and then married the daughter of the Xu family." At this point, Gu Changlin paused, and then looked at Zhong Mingwei , "Ming Wei, do you feel that there seems to be a deal here?"
