Zhong Mingwei didn't know about this at first, and Zhong Zhiheng never liked people to mention Zhenxian Empress's past, he knew about Zhenxian Empress. It has always been such a cold spiritual seat, and the last time Ma Zhiming came to Ninggu Pagoda, he mentioned the old things to him. Only then did he know that King Pingxi and Empress Zhenxian should have known each other early on.
"I don't know about this, but they are cousins. It's just that the Xu family is different from other families. There is a saying in the ancestral system, and the queens of all dynasties all come from the Xu family, so the family rules of the Xu family are very strict. Before the girls reach maturity You are not allowed to leave the palace, so it was the queen mother who was 36 years old... or the 37th birthday, when Empress Zhenxian entered the palace for the first time. At that time, King Pingxi and Long Live Lord were present. Naturally, they all saw this Cousin, I happened to be there at that time," Ding Yunwen nodded. Think about it. Said again. "At that time, King Pingxi and Empress Zhenxian had a very happy conversation, but Long Live Lord got very drunk." Speaking of this, Ding Yunwen's eyes fell on Zhong Mingwei's face again. "Why did you suddenly think of asking this? Who told you that King Pingxi and Empress Zhenxian had a marriage contract before?"
"A while ago, Ma Zhiming, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, came over, and he casually talked about King Pingxi's past. In addition, I also heard some things," Zhong Mingwei said slowly, he pursed his lips, and said with some difficulty, "Teacher, I think this may be true."
"Ma Zhiming is the commander of the Imperial Forest Army and is responsible for personal protection of the Lord Long Live. Naturally, he knows some secrets that outsiders don't know. It's just King Pingxi and Queen Zhenxian..." Ding Yunwen shook his head slowly, frowning again, "If King Pingxi and Queen Zhenxian really have If it is a marriage contract, then it means that the candidate for the crown prince identified by the late emperor is King Pingxi. Taking advantage of his last breath, he hurriedly cleared away the obstacles for King Pingxi, made King Pingxi the crown prince, and then gave him a marriage, but the late emperor still allowed King Pingxi to go to the northwest, which doesn't make sense."
"That's right, as soon as King Pingxi came out of Beijing, the first emperor died." Zhong Mingwei also nodded.
"But if the original body of the late emperor is still strong?" Gu Changlin, who had been silent all this time, suddenly interjected, "If the late emperor thinks that his body is good, how many years can he live? He also wants to take this opportunity to let King Pingxi go to the northwest He has made great achievements, and after he comes back, it is logical to make him the crown prince? I have heard that King Pingxi is the youngest son of the first emperor, and there are six princes who are not standing on top of him. Coincidentally, there is such an opportunity for King Pingxi to stand out, the late Emperor was eager to pave the way for King Pingxi, maybe he had secretly finalized the marriage between King Pingxi and Empress Zhenxian, and King Pingxi returned to Beijing triumphantly."
"You mean that someone noticed the deep meaning of the late emperor, and first stood still, and then as soon as King Pingxi left the capital, he..." At this point, Ding Yunwen suddenly fell silent, his eyes were full of shock, and he fell down after a long while Taking a breath, he continued, "He made a move, and then Long Live Lord died suddenly. King Pingxi was deeply involved in the Northwest battlefield, and he became the emperor logically."
As soon as the words fell, the room fell into a suffocating silence again. Meiya looked at Zhong Mingwei cautiously. Zhong Mingwei sullenly stared at the beating flame with heavy eyes. , felt a little pain in his heart, quietly moved his foot towards him, and then lightly touched the man's foot. Immediately, the corner of the man's tight mouth rose slightly, Zhong Mingwei turned his face sideways, and met him. He kissed the worried little girl in his family, and said softly, "It's okay."
Meiya was so busy that she turned her face away, and also retracted her feet, still lowering her head to warm herself by the fire, for fear that the two old people opposite would see the clue.
"If this is the case, then the sudden death of the late emperor must have been man-made," Ding Yunwen said after a long while, frowning with an inconceivable expression on his face, "but if that's the case, how could the Queen Mother allow it? How could it be possible to help and send him to the throne?"
It is self-evident who the "he" Ding Yunwen refers to.
