The Emperor's uncle loves me! My paranoid wife, don't run away
Chapter 212: Changes in the Court, Stand Your Ground Early
During the nearly fifty years of the late emperor's reign, the prosperity of Tianyan Kingdom reached its peak.
Because of its strength, all neighboring countries dared not invade, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the world was prosperous.
The late empress was extremely graceful and elegant, and she was in charge of all six palaces, and all of them were in harmony.
All the good things that were originally there ended completely after one thing happened.
At this point, the stars in Concubine Jing's eyes disappeared, replaced by a darkness.
The prince died suddenly overnight for unknown reasons.
For a dynasty, the death of the crown prince is a big event. Although the entire palace appears calm on the surface, various forces are secretly competing with each other, trying to push the prince they support to the position of crown prince.
Shen Runing smiled.
"How can a healthy person suddenly die?"
Concubine Jing shook her head.
"I was still a married woman at that time, so I didn't know what was going on in the palace."
At that time, most people were on the side of the current emperor, Luo Xuan. Luo Xuan was the eldest prince, and he was both brave and resourceful. In everyone's eyes, Luo Xuan must be the next crown prince.
"My Lady, which side did Prince Jingyuan stand on back then?"
Concubine Jing raised her eyes and looked at Shen Runing.
The tightly bitten lips seemed to be hesitating, considering, and weighing the pros and cons.
"My father originally supported the Crown Prince Xian, but later, he joined Luo Xuan."
Concubine Jing's eyes were sincere, and her words might be consistent with what Luo Mian told Shen Runing.
Concubine Jing sighed: "It is because of this that I had to enter the palace, become a concubine, and lose my freedom..."
Soon after, news suddenly spread in the palace that the late emperor was going to make Luo Mian, who was only a few years old at the time, the crown prince. In an instant, voices of opposition arose from all over the court.
Luo Mian was immediately pushed to the forefront.
About a year later, the previous emperor passed away. At that time, there was no crown prince yet, so the ministers placed the eldest prince Luo Xuan on the throne.
"I married the new emperor not long after he ascended the throne. Since then, I have been locked up in this palace until my death."
What Concubine Jing said was not the point. What she wanted to know was the cause of death of the late queen.
The last person the late queen saw before her death was Concubine Jing.
What exactly happened that day.
"So, what about the late queen?"
"How did Luo Mian's mother die?"
Shen Runing spoke casually.
Imperial Concubine Jing didn't have any special expression, she just said leisurely: "Go with the late emperor, the late emperor and the late empress had a very good relationship."
Shen Runing looked at Concubine Jing.
Concubine Jing looked up and their eyes met.
"Why, Ning'er heard something else?"
Shen Runing pretended to answer casually: "Well, I heard that the late queen met someone before she died, but I don't know who it was."
Suddenly, the door opened and Luo Yuyao ran in.
"Mother, mother!"
"Those servants won't play with me, can you and Aunt Huang come and play with me?"
After saying that, he pulled Shen Runing's hand.
The conversation between the two was interrupted.
Shen Runing couldn't ask any more questions. If she continued, it would seem deliberate and "aggressive". Forceful questioning would only have the opposite effect.
Shen Runing pinched Luo Yuyao's little face.
"I'm afraid I can't play with the princess anymore. It's getting late. I need to go back."
Luo Yuyao pouted unhappily.
"Then next time, next time Aunt Huang must accompany me!"
"it is good."
Shen Runing stood up: "My Lady, I will go back first."
Imperial Concubine Jing smiled and said, "Okay, next time you come, remember to bring more golden sand custard puff pastry. I like it very much."
"Okay, concubine."
……
Long after Shen Runing left, a black figure flashed into the room.
"You let Yuyao in?"
"Yes, I heard it outside."
"Chu Tianji, can you please be more careful? If others find out that you are entering and leaving my palace, we will all be in trouble!"
Chu Tianji smiled and said, "Didn't I see you being held there?"
Concubine Jing sighed: "You still have the mind to worry about me. I can't get medicine from Shennongmen. What should I do with your illness?"
"Let's take it one step at a time. For me, I've earned a lot by being able to live a little longer."
"It seems that there was an internal conflict in Shennong Sect, so Weird Li didn't have the extra time to pay attention to me."
Concubine Jing smelled gossip: "What's going on?"
"It seems that the youngest disciple of Shennong Sect is going to rebel."
"Let's see what happens. I'll see if I can take advantage of the chaos to steal what I want!"
Concubine Jing was listening to Chu Tianji's words, but her eyes were a little dull.
Chu Tianji could probably guess what Concubine Jing was thinking.
"It's not your fault that happened back then."
"Her death has nothing to do with you."
Concubine Jing sighed: "Ah... who would believe such words?"
"She died soon after I left. Who cares why?"
"So... do you really want to tell me everything? Do you really know what kind of person Shen Runing is?"
Chu Tianji didn't understand why Concubine Jing did this.
"Are you really close to Shen Runing to the point where you can hold your lifeline in her hands?"
Luo Yuyao interrupted.
"Aunt Huang is a very nice person."
Imperial Concubine Jing held her forehead and spoke softly.
"I received a letter from my father this morning."
Chu Tianji asked: "What did you say?"
"There will be changes in the court, let me stand in line as soon as possible."
"What does that have to do with Shen Runing? She's not the prince's consort."
Concubine Jing smiled and said, "She is the Princess of Ruyang."
……
The next day, something big happened in Kyoto.
Shochikukan was forcibly demolished. The largest place for men and women to make love in Kyoto was razed to the ground overnight. No one knew the specific reason, but it was said that it was General Hao's idea.
Hang Yunxia was tied up and thrown on the floor of the study, her hair was messy and she no longer had the elegance she used to have.
Hao Hengshan sat on the chair and looked at her coldly.
"I demolished the Songzhu Pavilion. I interviewed all the people involved. Guess what they told me?"
Hang Yunxia tried hard to open her swollen eyes and smiled: "They all told you, why are you still asking me?"
"If you want to kill or behead me, please do as you please."
Hao Hengshan sneered: "Bitch, I shouldn't have brought you into the Hao Mansion in the first place!"
"You have made the Hao Mansion a mess."
Hang Yunxia knew that her death was approaching and had nothing to fear.
"General, General, was it me who messed up the Hao Mansion?"
"Why, you're thinking of your sister now?"
"Hahahahaha, that's ridiculous!"
……
Hao Hengshan asked the guards to bring Hang Yunxia here in secret, but the servants still saw it and told Wei Yun.
Wei Yun never knew how Hang Yunxia felt about her, she just thought of it as a sisterly love.
Hang Yunxia was taken away inexplicably. Wei Yun was very worried. He trotted all the way to the study and pushed the door open.
"Hao Hengshan, what on earth are you going to do?!"
