It is impossible to punish adults

Chapter 563
"In this way, this barbarian Prince Ming is quite a wonderful person." After hearing this, Mu Liuyun was a little surprised, but also very interested. , Say one thing and do another, dare to speak out and advise, and still be able to not affect the trust of the barbarian king in him! How did this happen?"

"I'm afraid it's because this King Ming was born with no ambitions, including his belief that barbarian kings should not covet the Central Plains, and should not keep fighting for their own greed. This is all because he has no intention of power or hegemony." Master Mu thought for a while, and summarized, "And he is very smart, he rarely conflicts with others, he also knows what the barbarian king's taboo is, never does anything that makes people taboo, and he can be superficial and thorough. Being able to have both sides.”

"If you're talking about a wonderful person," Yuan Mu said, "I've walked this trip and found that the deposed grandson who never took half a step in the fief is also a wonderful person. Years, have you heard of it?"

When Master Mu was asked about the abolished grandson and his fief, he opened his mouth and replied: "I was watching the abolished prince for the late emperor, and at that time the abolished prince's branch was very special in their fief. To be honest, there has never been a change, it seems that after losing power in the battle for the throne, he lost his fighting spirit and no longer thought about any grand plans.

Later, in the 20 years of the barbarians, I heard from King Ming more than once that when the abolished prince was around, he strictly guarded the border area between his fiefdom and the barbarians. It was the most heavily guarded border area, and the barbarian king also It's not that he didn't try to win over him, but the deposed prince didn't give his envoy any good looks, and directly sent him back. Afterwards, he was strictly guarded against death, and there was no room for discussion at all.

Not long after that, the abolished prince handed over the power to the abolished grandson because of his physical discomfort. However, after several trials, he failed, and finally determined that the deposed grandson, like his father, cannot be wooed, even though he has a headache, there is nothing he can do.

King Ming has always admired the way of the abolished prince and abolished grandson. He thinks that they are smart and understand the overall situation. .

The most important thing is to clearly distinguish what is inside and what is outside. Although each is its own master, Ming Wang feels that the abolished crown prince knows from top to bottom that the people are the first, and will not collude with foreign tribes for selfish reasons. The people suffer. "

"There is another discovery, which is also quite different from our previous guess." Yuan Mu said to Mu Liuyun, "I noticed some interesting things during this trip, those who were 'promoted' and transferred to the fiefdom of the abolished grandson It seems that none of them have received much attention, some were transferred from the fief soon and sent to other places to serve, and some stayed there, but they were not entrusted with important responsibilities."

Mu Liuyun was a little surprised. She originally thought that Mr. Wu took great pains to transfer all the talented people to the fiefdom of the abolished grandson. The hot ones are busy there, and the waste grandsons are there... Is it too easy for a talented person to get it, but they don't cherish it? !
That is naturally impossible, and the reason for this is probably the most clear in the heart of the old grandson. Mu Liuyun can also guess a little bit from the expressions of Father Cai and Yuan Mu just now, but I don't know if Master Wu is clear, or whether willing to accept.

Yuan Mu already had his own judgment on this, and now he just told Mu Liuyun, and then asked Master Mu: "Before you were transferred from the mountain and taken to the barbarian side, was everything normal for the late emperor? Nothing unusual? As far as you know, was there anyone close to him at that time who could know about you spies?"

"I have recalled this incident over and over again during the 20 years when the barbarians were under house arrest." Master Mu sighed and said to them, "Before the accident, there was no abnormality in the body and bones of the late emperor. As far as I know Knowing that, before the accident, it was just one or two times of gastrointestinal discomfort, and the imperial doctor prescribed a few medicines to recuperate, and it was no longer a serious problem.

The first emperor was suspicious by nature, if there was something wrong with his body suddenly, he would definitely notice it. "

"That's right!" After hearing this, Mu Liuyun thought for a while, "Father, do you know that after the first emperor fell ill, the imperial physician prescribed medicine to recuperate him, but he was healed after taking one or two short meals. Or has it been recuperating for a long time?"

Master Mu replied: "I'm quite aware of this matter. The late Emperor suffered from gastrointestinal discomfort. Although the imperial doctor saw it and soon got relief, he still drank soup for a while to recuperate the spleen and stomach, so as not to suffer from that kind of suffering again.

However, the decoctions and medicines taken by the late emperor were all prescribed by the imperial physician, and the medicines caught by the imperial pharmacy. After the decoction was finished, there were special testers who took it first. "

Mu Liuyun's views on this matter are different from her father's. She still clearly remembers what King Zhongyong said before. None of the few imperial physicians at that time ended up with a good death. This is definitely not a coincidence , I am afraid that the calculation against the first emperor had already quietly started long before his father was taken away.

Just like Wu Rongzhi, the unlucky county magistrate of Yuyong County, if it wasn't for a coincidence that the drug's properties were restrained and the toxicity was triggered, it would have passed a period of time in the end, and then died silently, which could not arouse anyone's suspicion.

Master Mu continued: "Back then, there was only one person around the late emperor who knew about the existence of the hidden guards, and it was a concubine in the harem that he favored at that time, and if I remember correctly, it was a concubine called Wanfei.

This person is not of high birth, and his appearance is not outstanding. When he first entered the palace, he was only a small talent. Later, I don’t know how he got into the pity of the late emperor. After half a year, I came back When I entered the palace to meet the Holy Spirit, she happened to be there too. The late Emperor didn't particularly avoid her, and let me leave after accepting the note I submitted.

I only found out later that in just half a year, that woman was promoted from a talented person to a concubine.

The first emperor was not a person who indulged in the gentleness of the harem, and I don't know what kind of talent that woman is, so that she can be favored by the first emperor, but this is a matter of the harem after all, it has nothing to do with me, and it is not convenient for me to inquire too much , so I didn't pay too much attention. "
