Chapter 28 Past Events

Lei Xiao, King Lei Hu and others said goodbye to the Empress Dowager. Since Lei Xiao was injured, he was asked to go back to the house first and ask for the imperial doctor.

King Lei Hu went to Huyu Xu Mansion.

Xu's Mansion, as the palace of Qingtian that protects the Jade Kingdom, has a special crime hall, Xu Qingtang, and a cell where prisoners are imprisoned.

As soon as King Xu Hu returned to his house, his left-hand man Yang Huwei hurriedly bowed to report.

"King Xu Hu, King Lei Hu sent two prisoners when he returned to Beijing this morning."

King Xu Hu originally wanted to go back to the main courtyard, but after hearing this, he changed his steps and went to Xu Qingtang.

Looking at the two people lying down and in the cage, Xu Huwang felt a headache on his forehead.

"Old man Lei, he sent me here because he made people die and make them miserable alive. Why did you send me here!" He complained: "Really, the Jade Soul Locking Case has already made people miserable.

I have a headache."

"If I didn't send you here, why don't I send you to the tiger's mouth?" King Lei Hu followed him in shortly after he entered the house. Since he always came and went freely, no one in the house stopped him or informed him.

King Xu Hu glanced at him angrily, "Send him to the clan's mansion. Do you really think I'm an idler?"

"How dare you." King Lei Hu looked at him and found it funny. He couldn't help but ask: "What did you just say about the Jade Soul Locking Case? What's going on?"

After he mentioned this, King Xu Hu immediately described the case in detail, and then told the story of today's morning court and the Queen's urging.

"Sun Guojian is a disaster!"

King Lei Hu took a sip, and then analyzed: "That has a certain connection with stone refining..."

"Who doesn't know?" King Xu Hu rolled his eyes at him.

"What's the hurry? Listen to me." King Lei Hu rolled his eyes at him, and then asked: "Have there been any other strange or important things happening in the capital recently?"

"There doesn't seem to be anything strange or important..." King Xu Hu pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "Yes, the Feng family's stone refining room suddenly appeared, and its stone refining skills are not inferior to those of the Lin family and the Zhao family.

, it can be said that the scale is larger.”

King Lei Hu quickly asked: "Did you find anything?"

"No." King Xu Hu said dejectedly: "After a few days of observation, everything is undoubtedly normal. So I plan to find out if they have offended someone and acted in revenge."

"You need manpower to inform me." King Lei Hu nodded and walked into Xu Qingtang's back room. There was no one around and he said: "Those two people are important criminals, the criminals who assassinated the princess. The Queen Mother has ordered me to

…”

"Wait a minute." King Xu Hu stopped him and said calmly: "The Empress Dowager secretly sent her own bodyguards to pick them up, but you brought them back? You should have informed us earlier, otherwise we would have worried in vain."

"I have to blame them. I wouldn't have been like this if they hadn't been chasing me." Of course, I didn't mention being kidnapped and threatened by the enemy. How shameless.

King Lei Hu continued: "The Empress Dowager ordered to find out who was behind this and what happened to the eldest princess back then."

It is reasonable for Xu Mansion to investigate such a major matter as the assassination of the princess, and besides, it would not be appropriate to leave this matter to anyone else.

King Xu Hu nodded silently and murmured: "I'm afraid we have to meet the eldest princess about what happened back then, but it's just not appropriate for us to go, as we might scare the trouble."

After pondering for a while, King Xu Hu suddenly asked: "How is she?"

King Lei Hu, who had a tacit understanding, understood what he was referring to and nodded, "She has the demeanor of a general, is smart, calm and decisive, and..."

King Lei Hu told Lei Xiao about her calmness and calmness when treating Lei Xiao's wounds and told Lei Xiao that she had seen through the leader's intentions and the other person's weakness, and then told him.

Of course, there will be no shortage of her passionate words when arguing with Lei Xiao.

King Xu Hu looked at him in surprise, and then the corners of his mouth slowly raised. He had never been so excited in a long time.

"If we had spared no effort back then, things would have been better than now." He suddenly sighed.

"No, if we didn't retreat in order to advance, it would only be worse than now. I believe the eldest princess in Nianci Palace will understand." King Leihu replied without hesitation.

That was the trace in the hearts of the Six Great Jade Protectors, an indelible trace, the shame of having no choice but to compromise and be led away by others.

It is also the pain in the heart of the Empress Dowager.

After Su Rui and his mother-in-law had snacks, the Empress Dowager detailed the affairs in the palace and that year.

The current empress is her imperial aunt, Hou Fengyu, the sister of her mother, Hou Jingyu. They were both born in Jinling, the Queen Mother, and they also have their eldest son, her uncle Hou Longyu.

Empress Fengyu has two sons and two daughters, the eldest son Hou Guanyu, the second son Hou Tingyu, the eldest daughter Hou Xinyu and the youngest daughter Hou Wanyu; the emperor's uncle Hou Longyu has one daughter and one son, the eldest daughter Hou Zhaoyu and his son

Hou Jinyu,

Empress Dowager Jinling has an elder brother and a younger sister. Her elder brother Hou Jinye has only one son and one daughter, the eldest son Hou Hongyun, and her daughter Hou Yiyun. Her younger sister Hou Jinli has two daughters and one son, the eldest daughter Hou Canglan, the second daughter Hou Chunlan and Zihou.

Cen Lan.

I thought that the country of Yu had polygamy as in ancient times, but I didn't expect that it was monogamy. Polygamy was prohibited by law. Children should take their husband's surname. Except for the royal family, children should take the emperor's surname.

The queen's mother was also very arrogant. The country of Yu only had the surname of the emperor, so she directly gave Meiyu her surname to others. Fortunately, the knowledge in the remote village was limited, otherwise Meiyu would have died countless times.

However, this assassination must have something to do with the throne. The empress back then was not Hou Fengyu, but the eldest empress, Empress Jingyu.

One night in autumn that year, at midnight, more than a dozen figures broke into the palace and killed Hou Chunlan and Hou Jinyu. Hou Guanyu and Hou Xinyu were also almost killed. Fortunately, the Imperial Guards arrived and Queen Mother Jinling was saved.

He was killed, but he is still unconscious. That night alarmed everyone, and they discovered that the person who spearheaded the assassination was actually a confidant of Queen Jingyu. All the fingers were pointed at her. At that time, she had a disagreement with the Taihuang and was unhappy.

The emperor was also dissatisfied with her, and others took advantage of her to publicize her.

The Queen Mother was furious at that time. Even though there were different opinions and the pressure of public opinion, the Queen Mother still believed in Hou Jingyu. She had brought up Hou Jingyu and Long Yu, and she knew she would not do this.

However, everyone's confessions pointed to doubts about her, and the six jade-protecting houses tried their best to find out but could not find any clues. With the power of the Empress Dowager and the retreat, they were able to save her life, but they took her away.

The throne was transferred to Nianci Palace.

Nianci Palace was the place where important figures in the royal family made mistakes and were locked up. At that time, Hou Jingyu had been pregnant with Hou Meiyu for five months, and her belly was not obvious. The emperor was forbidden to move in Jingyan Palace, which was the queen's palace.

Jingyu and his palace. Her eldest son Hou Tianyu was imprisoned in his Tianheng Palace.

Another duty of the six jade-protecting houses is to supervise the queen. If the queen makes a huge mistake, they have the power to unite and ask her to abdicate and move into Nianci Palace. At that time, they had no clue and were afraid that she would be killed. In order to protect her safety and the queen's

The Empress Dowager agreed to do this after discussion. Presumably those people behind the scenes also wanted to force her to abdicate.

The royal family has an ancestral motto that once you enter Nianci Palace, you will no longer be the queen, even if you come out.

After Hou Jingyu broke into Nianci Palace, she saw no one except Que Ling. Five months later, Hou Meiyu was due to give birth. After giving birth, she asked her confidant palace maid Que Ling to take her away quickly. This Nianci Palace

There are many overt and covert clues staring at her. However, when Que Ling fled with her newborn Hou Meiyu in her arms, she was chased by soldiers.

The Empress Dowager also learned about this incident when Yan Zhongyi accidentally talked about it when she went to Jingyan Palace not long ago. Yan Zhongyi was the monarch of Hou Jingyu and the father of Hou Meiyu. The Empress Dowager followed this matter to find out
