Transmigrating into a book: After getting married, I found that the target of the strategy has chang

During the days when Gu Changfeng was not at Suixia Academy, he was not idle. He only knew that Wen Heng wanted to win the last monthly exam and successfully enter the Ministry of Rites because his brother had been harmed by Zhou Chaoyang and he wanted to go back for revenge. However, he did not know what had happened back then.

That happened when the late emperor was alive. The Queen Mother appointed Wen Zhuo, a relative from her mother's side, as the Minister of Rites. Even though Wen Zhuo was not born to be an official, the late emperor turned a blind eye to it due to the Queen Mother's biased mind. The information Xiao Wo provided was not detailed. It was only known that during a sacrifice, Wen Zhuo made a big mistake, which angered the late emperor. After that, his health deteriorated and he was not as good as before, so he gave up the throne to Zhou Ling.

It seems we still need to investigate what is going on.

Gu Changfeng got on the carriage to the dowager's tomb, intending to start by asking the dowager's aunt who was with her when she was alive.

Xiao Wo has just received a notification from the main system that as long as he gets the benefits of the hidden plot this time, he can leave Bai Ze's body.

It lay on its stomach with its front legs raised, thinking that its recent host was really good. If nothing went wrong it could retire a few years earlier.

After wandering along the way, when Gu Changfeng arrived, it was already noon at the Dowager Dowager's Mausoleum.

Before getting off the carriage, Gu Changfeng still took in some of his childhood memories as the protagonist to avoid making any mistakes.

My aunt is old now. The black hair in my childhood memory has turned white. She brought over a bowl of plain noodles, and she smelled of the same sandalwood as Wenheng.

"The Tomb of the Concubine Dowager is located in a remote area. Your Highness has been traveling a long way, so you should take good care of it. Unfortunately, there are only some plain noodles here. Please forgive me."

Gu Changfeng ate the bowl of noodles, but he couldn't eat anymore after just a few bites. The food originally made in Prince Yong's Mansion was not as ingenious and surprising as the one made in the palace, but it was also something that ordinary people couldn't eat. However, after more than a month, he couldn't eat this most ordinary food. After half a year, he went to the frontier. Wouldn't he cry when it was time to eat?

"Do people here all eat these?" He was asking Wen Heng, who had been here to observe three years of mourning.

"Yes."

Gu Changfeng thought, no wonder Wen Heng looked so thin, he had been eating vegetarian food for three years with almost no seasoning except a tiny bit of salt, his life was bland every day, it would be strange if he didn't lose weight.

He put down his bowl and chopsticks silently, showing a sad expression, and said to his aunt: "Take me to see the concubine."

The aunt nodded, asked the maid to collect the things on the table, and went to the concubine's tomb with him.

There were no records in the palace about what kind of person the Concubine Dowager was when she was alive, or what relationship she had with the Wen family, so Gu Changfeng could only ask his aunt.

"Now that the Concubine Dowager has passed away for many years, thanks to her blessing, the people who came out of the Concubine Dowager's Mausoleum are smart and capable, and the Emperor likes them very much."

He looked at his aunt with a surprised look and asked, "What's wrong, aunt?"

The aunt couldn't help but grab Gu Changfeng's hand and asked, "Is it Master Wen that the prince is talking about?"

Gu Changfeng raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, apart from Wen Heng, who else could get out of the Dowager Concubine's Mausoleum? Everyone who came here had tacitly agreed to accompany the Dowager Concubine until her death.

"It's him. At the Emperor's birthday banquet a few days ago, the Emperor specially praised Wen Heng. He is smart and loves to study. He always gets an A in every exam at the Suixia Academy."

Two lines of tears slowly flowed down, and the aunt's expression was obviously much kinder. She also loosened her grip on Gu Changfeng's hand and said, "I'm sorry, my lord. I was too excited. The Wen family finally has someone who can be of great use."

"Why don't you tell me, aunt, what happened back then?"

My aunt was silent for a moment, but she still told me everything that happened back then...

"I have followed the Dowager Consort since I was a child, and I know her family affairs very well. According to seniority, the master of the Wen Mansion is the Dowager Consort's brother. When the Dowager Consort entered the palace and was canonized as the Imperial Noble Consort, the master was already very old. Even if the Dowager Consort wanted to support the Wen Mansion during her lifetime, she could not arrange an official position for the master of the Wen Mansion. Wen Heng was still a baby, so only Wen Zhuo could be qualified. The Dowager Consort did not want him to be the Minister of Rites at first, she just wanted him to have no worries about food and clothing, so she recommended him to the emperor."

"But Wen Zhuo is not the kind of person who works calmly. All his smart talents are used elsewhere... It was Wen Zhuo who asked the late emperor to appoint him as the Minister of Rites, and then he played tricks and overthrew the original Shangshu and became the new Shangshu. The late emperor thought it was the dowager's intention, so he did not pursue it. He just felt that the dowager's hand reached out to the previous dynasty, and he became more and more wary of the dowager, and even planted spies in the palace."

Hearing this, Gu Changfeng's heart tightened. If Wen Zhuo was a man who was used to playing power games, how could he fall into Zhou Ling's trap so easily?
