Chapter 305

Listening to Concubine You Gui narrating what happened back then, Yi Xue was in awe.She knew Zhang Xuan very well. Her mother had six brothers and sisters, the eldest brother Zhang Yueling, the second brother Zhang Xuan, and the younger brother Zhang Yueheng.Zhang Xuan is the most potential son of the Zhang family. Not only is his literary talent outstanding, but his martial arts is even more powerful. He is the next successor that the Zhang family will focus on training.When Zhang Xuan was young, he had already been worshiped as the fourth-rank military school boy. He followed the old prince's family to the east and west, and established a lot of prestige. He is a good man of his generation.Even the most remote children in the capital know Zhang Xuan.Zhang Xuan is handsome, and he also gets the yearning of many girls.

It's a pity that good luck tricks people, and they died in a political struggle that no one can figure out.

"Concubine You Gui, what did you hear back then?" Yi Xue asked hastily, she had to figure out why her grandfather's family suffered such a tragedy.

Concubine You glanced over, and saw Liujin holding Cuiyun and talking, Cuiyun looked this way from time to time, as if monitoring every move of the noble concubine, but the distance was neither too close nor too far , speaking in a low voice, she couldn't hear it either.

"That was No. 14 years after I entered the palace. It has been a long time, but the tragedy seems to have not disappeared. One day I went to the empress to greet the empress, and when I came back, I heard Rong Rong in the woods. Mammy's words", Concubine You paused, Yi Xue became even more anxious, and did not dare to force Concubine You.

Seeing Yi Xue's expression, Concubine You smiled faintly, "Don't worry, the Holy Majesty will come later, this story is still very long."Yi Xue had no choice but to listen quietly, and Concubine You continued, "Nurse Rong was brought by the empress when she entered the palace, and she is her confidant. The empress is the daughter of the former prime minister, Li Yuelong. , the hiding is extremely deep, if the old sage didn't dare to like Li Yuelong, I'm afraid he would have been dismissed long ago."

"Li Yuelong is also well aware of his position in the eyes of the Holy Master, so he is more thoughtful and designed to make his daughter close to the current Holy Master, but the current Holy Master likes Zhang Ziyue from Zhang Taifu's family. You should be clear about this," You Guifei asked. .

Yi Xue nodded. This aunt had told her about it long ago. Could it be that Prime Minister Li had something to do with her aunt's death?

"Today's majesty's love for Zhang Ziyue is really enviable, and he cared for her in every possible way. At that time, I was only four years younger than Zhang Ziyue, but I didn't have the chance to see her beauty. After I entered the palace, Zhang Ziyue was relegated to the cold palace. It's a pity that this peerless beauty has been treated like this, hey, in the deep palace, there are constant battles, so she can only stay lonely."

"Could it be that Zhang Ziyue's being thrown into limbo has something to do with Li Yuelong and the queen?" Yi Xue asked softly.

Concubine You's face turned cold, and she showed a disgusted expression, "Li Yuelong is very smart. In order to make his daughter a queen, he planned to get rid of Zhang Ziyue back then. This old fox is extremely cruel and scheming."

Yi Xue was startled, and she hurriedly asked, "Isn't it Zhang Ziyue who was framed by Li Yanzhi?"

Concubine You snorted, and said with emphasis, "Li Yanzhi? What is she, a brainless thing, that is, the West Prince's Mansion is powerful, otherwise she would have died many times. Li Yanzhi's brain is not enough. , and finally was used by Li Yuelong to frame Zhang Ziyue. So outsiders know that Li Yanzhi is jealous, but who knows that there are other people behind this? Although Li Yanzhi hates it in his heart, he dare not do anything to Li Yuelong. It is unknown what the Holy Majesty thought back then, but Li Tingting was also a queen, and suddenly she was canonized as a queen directly from a small Zhaoyi. During that time, Li Yanzhi broke a lot of things in anger, hehe, She deserves it too, making wedding clothes for others."

"I guess, this Li Yuelong used Li Yanzhi to make the Holy Majesty feel that Li Yanzhi hurt his beloved and was jealous. Such a person is not suitable to be the mother of the country," Yixue interjected.

Concubine You glanced at Yi Xue approvingly and nodded, "Even if she doesn't frame Zhang Ziyue, she will leave a jealous image. What's more, the Xiwang Palace is already powerful. If Xiwang's daughter becomes a queen, I'm afraid the current The Holy Majesty's dragon chair is no longer stable, so no matter what, the Holy Majesty will not choose her."

Yi Xue understood this truth, so she asked again, "How did Li Yanzhi kill Zhang Ziyue back then, and why was the Zhang family destroyed?"

Concubine You nodded, and said solemnly, "This matter is too involved, and it has something to do with Li Yuelong, the West Palace, and the Holy Majesty. If I hadn't heard Nanny Rong talking to an old nanny I didn't know, I'm afraid I wouldn't Know"

"25 years ago, Zhang Ziyue became a princess. Six years later, Li Yuelong used an extremely despicable method to frame Zhang Ziyue. It was called the Erotic Palace Case at that time. Only a few people knew about this case, except for the current The Queen, Li Yanzhi and the Holy Majesty, I am afraid that no one will know about it anymore, the concubines and servants who knew about it back then have all been executed."

"Back then, Li Yuelong asked Li Yanzhi to help frame Zhang Ziyue by some means. This Li Yanzhi was already coveting the position of the crown princess. It happened that the Holy Majesty was about to make Zhang Ziyue his queen, so he couldn't bear it and immediately agreed. She thought she was something , framed others, how can I climb up?" Concubine You Gui snorted coldly, laughing endlessly.

"Li Yuelong told Li Yanzhi, as long as you give Zhang Ziyue a box of things, the prime minister will settle the matter later, and it will not affect Li Yanzhi. Li Yanzhi really believed it, and she is really simple-minded. Give the box to Li Yanzhi After Rouge, some court ladies secretly complained to the Holy Majesty, saying that Zhang Ziyue had misbehaved and secretly committed dirty things. The Holy Majesty didn't believe it at first, and then the current empress personally sued, saying that Zhang Ziyue brought an obscene scroll to all the sisters There were quite a few people who saw it at the time. His Majesty questioned many concubines suspiciously, and everyone agreed that Zhang Ziyue took a picture of the erotic palace for everyone to admire."

"Zhang Ziyue isn't that stupid, right?" Yi Xue asked suspiciously. Since it was delivered to Zhang Ziyue, of course she would take a look. How could she just show it to everyone for appreciation?

Concubine You shook her head, "You don't know Zhang Ziyue, she is the most unsuitable to live in a deep palace, even if she does nothing, she will probably be killed, even if she escapes by chance, she probably won't live too long "

"Why is that?" Yixue asked.

"Because of Zhang Ziyue's temperament, she is a very quiet person, without the slightest scheming, and likes a quiet life. I heard that she likes to play the piano, never goes out, and never associates with any concubines. She is truly an elegant woman. It's a pity, at that time, many people were thinking about her seat, but she didn't seem to care, her heart was all on the Holy One. She had no intentions, so she was framed miserably. Li Yanzhi said when she gave the box to Zhang Ziyue, The things inside need to be admired with everyone to understand the artistic conception inside. Don’t open it. This piece of Ziyue actually believed that, maybe she didn’t care at all. At a party, Zhang Ziyue had already forgotten the box that Li Yanzhi gave , but Li Yanzhi mentioned a style at the time. Zhang Ziyue did not refuse, and took it out on the spot. The poor Zhang Ziyue who was kept in the dark was stupid at the time, and then all the concubines began to accuse Zhang Ziyue."

"Later, the sage general Zhang Ziyue was imprisoned in the cold palace, and Zhang Ziyue died in depression." Concubine You Guifei said empathetically, tears also flowed down, Yi Xue felt heavy breathing when listening.

"This old man, bitch, it's so cruel", Yi Xue cursed bitterly, there were already three figures of Li Yuelong, the Queen and Li Yanzhi, why didn't the Holy Majesty figure out and send Aunt into the cold palace?The most ruthless is the emperor.

"After Zhang Ziyue was imprisoned in the cold palace, she died less than a year later, and on the third day after her death, Taifu Zhang's family also suffered a catastrophe. Hehe, it's really cutting grass and roots, and the method is really too ruthless."

"What is that for?"

"Why? It's not the position of empress," Concubine You said coldly, "Back then when Zhang Ziyue was imprisoned in the cold palace, why didn't Mrs. Zhang know her daughter's temperament? It was absolutely impossible to do such a thing. So I asked several times to send Zhang Ziyue back family, but the Holy Majesty disagreed. After all, Zhang Ziyue was regarded as the Majesty's wife, even if she was imprisoned in the cold palace, she was still his. Later, Taifu Zhang became anxious and vomited blood in anger, and the two sons of Taifu Zhang, Zhang Yueling and Zhang Xuan, actually broke into the palace directly. Pressing the Holy One, the Holy One was furious and imprisoned the two of them. At this time, Li Yuelong saw the opportunity, and immediately killed Zhang Taifu's family to resist the emperor's order, threatened the Holy One, and jointly impeached Zhang Taifu's family together with King Xi and other ministers, listing [-] crimes. Eighteen crimes, how could they figure it out... The next day, Taifu Zhang’s family was imprisoned, except for children under the age of six and women, all were killed.”

Yi Xue's eyes started to turn red when she heard this. These executioners actually wiped out hundreds of lives so easily.Your Majesty, you actually killed your courtiers like this, and I am saving your life now, why is this happening?

"Concubine You Gui, is there nothing the Holy Majesty can do? Could it be that he just watched his subjects get killed?" Yi Xue almost cried out, her chest was full of anger, ready to erupt like a volcano.

Concubine You saw that Yi Xue's face was a little distorted, and she hurriedly said, "Yixue, I don't want to defend the Holy Majesty, after all, he killed the person I love the most, but I have heard a little about what happened back then. Ascended the throne, the political situation was unstable, so we had to sacrifice Zhang Ziyue and the Zhang family to balance all aspects."

"Why is it the Zhang family, not another family? Has the Holy One forgotten Zhang Ziyue's affection? Forgot the credit of the Zhang family?" Yi Xue almost cried, the emperor is ruthless.
