The queen mother is

Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, the palace people are busy.Ruyi likes to be lively on weekdays, and during festive seasons, there must be his busy figure. This day seems to have seen a ghost. Wen Yining woke up for a long time, but he didn't see half of Ruyi.

Although Ruyi's performance in the past few days is a bit strange, after looking at the memorials on the case table, Wen Yining remembered the case that was delayed because of Wei Fengguo's affairs not long ago-although the Ministry of Punishment was gone, but at that time Wei Fengguo had Heart to help, I heard the truth in the prison hall.

Huandi Ling and Shu and Ning Wang Ling and Quan have different backgrounds, and Ning Wang is willing to steal the emperor's mausoleum for this secret.It shows that the weak Hedi actually hides a lot of things in his heart——

During Emperor He's reign, the Zhang family of Empress Zhang Xian's mother's family was the dominant one, and the only princes born on the direct line were Ling Yushu and Ling Yuquan.The battle for the prince began between two people: In ordinary families, parents love the youngest son, but when it comes to the royal family, they love the eldest son more.

However, in terms of their attitudes towards their two sons, Emperor He and Empress Zhang Xian showed two completely opposite attitudes.Emperor He preferred the youngest son Ling Yuquan, while Empress Zhang Xian preferred the eldest son Ling Yushu.Or it should be said that Queen Zhang Xian doesn't like anyone more, because Ling and Quan are not in her eyes at all.

Wen Yining remembered seeing it when he was a child. In the ice and snow, the first prince Ling Yushu sat next to Empress Zhang Xian, warming himself by the fire and eating snacks made by his mother, while the second prince Ling Yuquan knelt in the snow and froze into an iceman. I begged again and again, but I couldn't see my mother.

King Ning was moved to fight, although he said that he was suspicious that "one of them must not be of royal blood", but Wen Yining knew in his heart: the problem must not lie with Ling and Shu.

Presumably, King Ning also understood it, so he acted like this, risking the world's unrighteousness, injustice and filial piety, and stealing the emperor's tomb.

Recalling the scene that he saw in the imperial tomb that day, Wen Yining felt strange, his brows were deeply furrowed, and he didn't even notice that Wei Fengguo got up from the bed and came behind him.

"The paperwork is exhausting," Wei Fengguo said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

As he said that, Wei Fengguo picked up a memorial that had been laid out in front of Wen Yining's case, looked at it casually and said with a smile, "It's not a big deal, you have something on your mind—"

Wen Yining felt someone holding his shoulders, and then Wei Fengguo turned his whole body:

"What is it—that troubles you so much?"

I wanted to directly express my doubts to Wei Fengguo, but at the moment when he saw Wei Fengguo, Wen Yining's eyes suddenly lit up, "Yes! Wei Fengguo, you, you must know something! You and Mrs. The relationship with the concubine has always been very good, it must be more direct to ask you about her affairs than to ask those palace people who are not close to her."

Wei Fengguo didn't speak, just looked at Wen Yining.

"Among all the empresses and concubines of Emperor Yichao, only Concubine Yun is on good terms with Empress Zhang Xian and has a close relationship with King Ning. Before she died, she told me that even if she died, Jin Dynasty and I would not be able to protect her. Too long."

"At that time, all of us thought that you wanted to protect the safety of the Jin Dynasty..." Wei Fengguo recalled the past, and felt that there were mixed feelings and mistakes.

But the current situation does not allow Wei Fengguo to think too much, he can only tell Wen Yining in detail about the news that Concubine Yun accidentally revealed to him.

As Wen Yining listened, he recorded all the trivial clues in the case, bit by bit, Wen Yining felt as if he saw the "prince dispute" back then: Ling and Shu didn't have no desire for power from the beginning .

Today's afternoon weather was uncharacteristically hot and muggy, and the weather outside changed in a blink of an eye. It might be an autumn rain.Wen Yining stared at the book case without paying attention, Wei Fengguo felt a little distressed, and went over to add a lamp for Wen Yining.

Just when Wen Yining felt the light and raised his head to give Wei Fengguo a grateful smile, someone just came in from the outside. This person did not bow to Wen Yining and Wei Fengguo, but just smiled politely. Consider the two of them together:

"I don't know when I will be able to discuss a wedding wine with Lord Chitose."

"Shen..." Wei Fengguo looked around to see that there were no outsiders serving him, so he just gave Shen Jun a look, "What nonsense are you talking about, old man."

"Hahahaha——" Shen Jun didn't care, he came to the front of the table and bowed his hands exaggeratedly to Wen Yining, "The Queen Mother won't care about me, will you, if you care about me, don't you just sit down?" Did you stop my old man's nonsense?"

Wen Yining looked up at Shen Jun, he was much calmer than Wei Fengguo, the old god was there:

"Master Shen is here today, do you know what's the matter?"

Shen Jun laughed and pouted at Wei Fengguo, as if to say "Look, your mother is much calmer than you", until seeing Wei Fengguo frowned, Shen Jun put it away when he saw it was good, and turned his head He bowed to Wen Yining and said:

"These days, the people around my master have really searched through the files of the Ming Dynasty in my Heshan Pavilion, and I don't know what exactly you are looking for, Master. Although the Heshan Pavilion is not a great place, but every day I can't bear this, can I?"

"Your Excellency, you want me to visit Heshan Pavilion?"

Shen Jun was talking around a corner, what he said at this time seemed to be complaining, but in fact he just wanted to tell him that there was something to look at in Heshan Pavilion, Wen Yining raised his head and glanced at Shen Jun——

"I'm going to check it out right now, just in time - I also have something I want to check."

When he arrived at Heshan Pavilion, Wen Yining understood why Shen Jun came to look for him in such a hurry: He had been there once before, and Shen Jun was a person who paid great attention to tidying up, and he was very particular about the arrangement of books.The current situation will definitely not happen - the books are scattered all over the place, and all kinds of books are not cleaned up after they are opened.

Wen Yining looked at the opened files, which turned out to be the contents of the 11th year of Zhangming. Many of them were related to the Zhang family and Queen Zhang Xian. Ning didn't understand why these files were found.

If it is to investigate King Ning's life experience, how can it involve the political struggle of the previous dynasty? Could it be that King Ning has something to do with the Zhang family.

"It's not just like today's file," Shen Jun said while tidying up behind him. "In the past few days, all the guards around you came. You taught me well, master, so they tidied up very well. It's just that yesterday, it suddenly became a file. So..."

"Sudden?"

Listening to Shen Jun's subtext, Wen Yining frowned and turned to look at Shen Jun—I'm afraid this matter is not as simple as it seems, and carefully looked at the scattered books on the ground, the files were scattered in a mess, The books on the bookcase were also in a mess, maybe something happened to Ping An and Ru Yi.

Reminiscent of the accidents in the Shou'an Palace in the past few days, Ping An is not there... Wen Yining frowned even tighter, and only turned to ask Shen Jun:

"When was the last time your lord saw them?"

"About yesterday's son, the father-in-law Ruyi from your palace came to Heshan Pavilion in a hurry, and then I have never seen them—when did they come out, and I have never seen them."

Wen Yining glanced back at the open window, then looked at the direction where the scrolls spread out on the ground, sighed and said, "I've already understood this matter. It's because I didn't discipline the palace people strictly and caused trouble for the Lord."

Shen Jun shook his head, expressing that it was okay, and made a hand gesture to Wei Fengguo and Wen Yining - the intention was to let Wen Yining and Wei Fengguo investigate on their own, and the historian ignored everything and just watched from the sidelines .

After Shen Jun left, Wei Fengguo and Wen Yining said at the same time, "I'm afraid they found something..."

Wen Yining smiled slightly, "Ruyi can't hide things, but Ping An always has something in his heart—it seems that Ping An wants to hide something from me."

"Eunuch Ruyi wanted to tell you about this," Wei Fengguo nodded, "that's why he was taken away——do you think so?"

"I just hope that these files can give me what I want..." Wen Yining nodded, then shook his head again, looking at the things on the files on the ground, it was all about how Taifu Wen eliminated the authority of the Zhang family back then "Guess why Ping An came to me back then?"

Wei Fengguo thought he knew Wen Yining's affairs very well, and he never let go of any details. Now that Wen Yining asked him about it, he felt like he was being tested on the spot by Mr. Wei. After hesitating for a moment, Wei Fengguo Feng Guo said:

"You used to practice martial arts back then, and the security guards were sent by your master to protect your safety."

Wen Yining smiled, didn't say anything, nodded, looked at the records in the scroll in his hand, and happened to scan the records of the harem of the Zhangming Dynasty, and only thought about it:

Concubines in the harem, ranging from the queen to ordinary court ladies, all those who were honored by the emperor or called into the palace to serve in the palace are recorded in the memorial office, and there are eunuchs like Wei Fengguo and Feng Ruhai. Power determines the pregnancy of these women.

There is a folk saying that eunuchs in the palace have the right to "stay or not", if not, the eunuch has the right to get the things out of the woman's body to make the woman infertile.With the rise of such power eunuchs as Wei Fengguo, these rumors spread miraculously and convinced the common people even more.

Not all court dependents and emperor's heirs are decided by eunuchs, but the truth is not as mysterious as folk rumors.Because of thinking of Quan Xun, Wen Yining inadvertently took a look at Wei Fengguo.

"how?"

"Help me look up the harem records of the Ming Dynasty, especially the records of Empress Zhang Xian."

Hearing what Wen Yining said, Wei Fengguo immediately understood what Wen Yining meant—the harem records can find out when Queen Zhang Xian went to bed, and the birthdays of the two brothers Ling Yushu and Ling Yuquan know things.If there is a discrepancy between these two items, I am afraid that King Ning will be someone else's child, and he will be entrusted under the knee of Queen Zhang Xian.

This can also explain-why Empress Zhangxian disliked her youngest son Ling Yuquan very much, and later agreed to let Ling Yushu be the heir of the Ning family, without the right to inherit the throne.

just,

Wen Yining couldn't figure it out, when Empress Zhang Xian was reborn, the Zhang family held power in the world, and she alone held the power in the harem.It is well known in the world that the emperor is afraid of guilt. What kind of woman is she who can make the always jealous Empress Zhang Xian swallow this bad breath:

When I have my own son—this son is still very smart, I can help a woman raise her son.

Such a woman either has absolute authority or infinite wisdom.It's a pity that Wen Yining couldn't think of such a woman in the joint palace.
