"Opponent?" Jin Miaomiao was particularly confused. "She is a pampered old lady, and she still wants to interfere in the important affairs of the court? Did she not see the vision when Emperor Chongde was born, or did it prove that the vision was actually Made it up?”
"This has nothing to do with whether the vision is true or not. Even if the vision is true, it does not prevent those who are concerned about the Dragon Throne from making some small moves in private. If the person who is destined to have a vision from heaven appears. What kind of accident? Unfortunately, he died young, so didn’t they have a chance?"
"That's true, but if you get rid of the destined person, aren't they afraid of retribution?"
"Either she wasn't afraid, or she didn't think about it at all. Besides, this old lady was quite old at the time. Even if there was retribution, so what? For her, it was just a day of early death."
"..." Jin Miaomiao was stunned for a moment, then reacted randomly and shook her head gently, "She is quite tolerant, but how do you know this? I don't think Emperor Chongde or Prince Tong necessarily Would you write something like this so straightforwardly in your diary or notebook? I think the style of their diaries is still very subtle, and I am still worried that if they write too much, they will be easily caught by others."
"Yes, this was not written at that time, but when King Tong recalled his life experiences in his later years, he probably wanted to leave it to future generations, so that future generations can understand their true situation at that time. What does it look like?" Shen Cha raised his eyebrows and sighed, "Oh, it can't be considered in his old age. To be precise, it should be before his death."
"Senior Tantai said that Prince Tong was already over a hundred years old when he passed away. It's rare that he could remember his youthful experiences so clearly at such an old age." Jin Miaomiao sighed, "It's really amazing."
"That pill doesn't have this effect?"
"I don't know." Jin Miaomiao shook her head, "I haven't studied these and always thought it was nonsense. I didn't expect..." She looked at Shen Cha, "Maybe we can write a letter and ask our uncle, I heard Master say that he has a wide range of interests and his studies are relatively complex."
"I will ask." Shen Cha nodded, "According to our speculation, they should have two pills of this medicine. The original plan was for the two of them to retreat into the mountains and forests together and live the carefree life they longed for. . But their plan was disrupted because Emperor Chongde's condition suddenly worsened. That time should be very critical. If Emperor Chongde died of illness, the previous dynasty would be completely devastated and fall into greater chaos. Therefore, Emperor Chongde He had no choice but to take an elixir in advance to suppress his illness. The other one should have been taken by King Tong in order to fulfill some of Emperor Chongde's wishes after the city of Xijing was destroyed, the previous dynasty was completely destroyed, and Daxia was rebuilt. They bought the elixir that could lead to longevity, and then went out to travel, visiting all the great rivers and mountains that once belonged to them. After the journey, Prince Tong returned here again, giving up the so-called possibility of eternal life and accompanying his lover. Enjoy their rare peace quietly.
"Prince Tong's life can be summed up in two words: legend." Jin Miaomiao changed his posture and continued to lie on the table. "He was born into a noble family. When he was young, he was accidentally abducted by human traffickers. I met him on the road. The noble man in this life is also someone who has a close connection with him. He has lived in the palace for most of his life, watched the world with cold eyes, and experienced a life that most people will never be able to have in their entire lives."
"Yes, there are still many rumors circulating in the world that are not good for him and Emperor Chongde. Therefore, in his later years... no, before he passed away, he wanted to write down everything about his life." Shen Cha started from that moment He pulled out a notebook from the bottom of the pile of papers and pushed it in front of Jin Miaomiao, "This is Prince Tong's memoirs. I have already read it. Most of the contents in it are completely opposite to what we know."
"You actually finished reading it?" Jin Miaomiao picked up the notebook, looked at it, and put it back again, "When did you read it? Didn't you go to bed very early yesterday?"
"It's just because I went to bed early and woke up early. The morning class is over and you haven't gotten up yet. We have nothing to do, so we just finished reading this."
"No wonder my eyes feel uncomfortable!" Jin Miaomiao rolled her eyes, "Since you have all finished reading, I won't bother reading and just listen to what you told me. Let's start with that old lady, I remember Jiaren Emperor Chongde is her biological son, and Emperor Chongde is her biological grandson, right?"
"That's right."
"Then her grandson inherits the throne, and she is still the noble Empress Dowager. What is there to be dissatisfied about?"
"Emperor Chongde was implicated." Shen Haolin poured a glass of honey water and placed it in front of Shen Cha, letting her moisten her throat. He then explained, "The one she is really dissatisfied with is Emperor Jiaren."
"It can't be..." Jin Miaomiao curled her lips in disgust, "Is Emperor Jiaren not loved by the old lady?"
"That's about it." Shen Cha drank the honey water. The old lady had three sons. Emperor Jiaren was the second, and the eldest had already died. The youngest was four years younger than Emperor Jiaren, and was the old lady's heart. She also hoped His youngest son succeeded to the throne. But the younger son did not want to compete with his elder brother for the throne, so he disappeared inexplicably when he became an adult and was never seen again. "
"Missing?" Jin Miaomiao frowned slightly, "How could a living person and a respected prince disappear inexplicably?"
"Emperor Jiaren helped him run away. He didn't want his brother to be controlled by his mother again." Shen Cha sighed, "This also became the reason why the old lady hated Emperor Jiaren, and was dissatisfied with all of Emperor Jiaren's sons, especially Emperor Chongde was made the crown prince just after he was born. Emperor Jiaren knew his mother's temper very well, so he took strict precautions against her. Even so, Emperor Chongde was almost half a year old, one year old, and two and a half years old. He was plotted by the old lady and lost his life at the first moment. If Emperor Jiaren hadn't rescued him in time, Emperor Chongde might have died early." She glanced at Shen Haolin, "Brother guessed that Emperor Jiaren tied Emperor Chongde to the court early, and that's why In order to save his life and keep him safe, if Emperor Chongde is busy working in studies and government affairs, he will have no chance to deal with the harem."
"Unfortunately, if things don't go as planned, the Queen Mother always has a way to stuff things and people into the Imperial Study Room and the East Palace, trying to find a suitable opportunity to take action."
"Did you succeed?"
"It was almost." Shen Cha shook his head gently, "It was this almost that completely angered Emperor Jiaren. He had a quarrel with the old lady, and then took Emperor Chongde on a trip. He felt that if he was bored in the palace any longer, Here, nothing may happen.”
"Is this the one that saves King Tong?"
"Yes, it's just this time." Shen Cha chuckled, "The old lady never expected that even a serious problem in her heart could not be solved, and another one came, and the two of them are still of the same mind."
"If you think about it seriously, the Queen Mother sent people to disperse the bad rumors about these two people in the first place."
"But how did Prince Tong know?"
"Because they encountered an assassination on their way back to Xijing from Jiangnan. The mastermind of this assassination, after Emperor Jiaren's secret and careful investigation, was the old queen mother in the palace."
