Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 575

I am Emperor Heng, Cen Yuan, who was forced to abdicate from the Xicen Liang State... As these words entered Shi Anxia's ears, his hand, which was stroking the wooden doll, paused.

But she wasn't too frightened.

It turned out to be Emperor Heng of Liang! He was Cen Yuan, not Chen Yuan.

It seems she was only half right.

When she discovered that An Rou was reading a book introducing the history and kings of various countries, she vaguely guessed that this might be related to Cen Yuan's identity.

She originally thought that Cen Yuan was the son of Emperor Yong of Liang who was exiled, but unexpectedly he was Emperor Heng who was forced to abdicate by Emperor Yong.

There are only a few records about Emperor Heng in history books.

Emperor Heng ascended the throne at the age of eight. Three months into his reign, the regent Qin Li led his men to attack the Wumen Gate of the palace in the name of clearing the court of corrupt officials. This is known in history as the "Wumen Incident".

Emperor Heng died.

In history, Emperor Heng had neither a temple name nor a posthumous title, and there is no biography of his life.

Shi Anxia asked, "Qin Li is the regent who launched the 'Gongwumen Incident'? Is he also the current Emperor Yong of Liang?"

Cen Yuan nodded, "In fact, Emperor Yong is still... my biological father."

At this moment, An Xia was truly shocked, "Ah?"

It turned out that she had guessed most of it right! Cen Yuan was indeed the son of the current emperor of Liang.

Cen Yuan did not hide anything and spoke frankly, starting from his great-grandfather Emperor Xuan.

Emperor Xuan of Liang originally had a bunch of sons, but they all died young, leaving only two sons.

One is Prince Ying and the other is Prince Long.

Later, Prince Ying was framed by Prince Long for using boys as medicine to make the elixir of immortality, which was cruel and inhumane.

Emperor Xuan was furious and deposed Crown Prince Ying and made Crown Prince Long the heir.

Later, Prince Long successfully ascended the throne and became Emperor Long.

After Emperor Long came to power, he was eager to eradicate Prince Ying's party, even sparing no babies who were only a few months old.

Emperor Long thought that he had a stable life from now on, but he didn't expect that Prince Ying had a nine-year-old son who was raised among the people.

That son was Qin Li, who took his mother's surname.

Qin Li was a man of extraordinary talent. He passed the imperial examinations, entered the court, and was very good at dealing with people. He worked hard and became a powerful minister under Emperor Long.

Emperor Long was extravagant and greedy for women. During his reign, he never let go of any woman he liked, no matter if she was his wife, daughter, or even mother.

Not to mention women from the common people, his son's wife, and his aunts and uncles, as long as Emperor Long took a fancy to them, no one could escape his clutches.

Qin Li took advantage of this and framed Emperor Long, making him meet a woman named "Luo Ji" by chance.

When Emperor Long saw Luo Ji's beauty, he pounced on her like a hungry dog.

One is a lewd emperor, the other is a woman who was sent here deliberately. They hit it off immediately and became obsessed with each other.

Emperor Long took Luo Ji into the palace without saying a word.

In fact, Luo Ji was already pregnant with Qin Li's child at that time.

With Qin Li's manipulation, she managed to avoid a series of inspections before entering the palace and successfully became Emperor Long's favorite concubine.

With her beauty and means, and with the help of Qin Li's conspiracy, Luo Ji quickly ascended to the throne by stepping over the queen. She then gave birth to the prince Cen Yuan and became the head of the harem.

At this time, the people of Liang were miserable, the borders were in turmoil, and the court was in turmoil. Most of the officials were selfish and greedy.

The princes formed cliques, fought and died one after another. In the end, only Cen Yuan was left. This was naturally fueled by Qin Li, but also by the Liang State's unique "god curse".

When Emperor Long's body was hollowed out by alcohol and sex, there was only one prince, the eight-year-old Cen Yuan, who could inherit the throne.
