Chapter 155 Miserable (4)

Turning his thoughts, Ling Xiaodao suddenly recalled the matter of Shangguan Xuanlie's mother killing he mentioned just now; he glanced at him cautiously, and said in a low voice: "You said before, the emperor...!"

Shangguan Yunyan knew what she was going to ask, sighed, and said quietly: "This happened in the 27th year of Taihe, that is, the first year of the Celestial Dynasty. At that time, the king and the emperor's brother were both 14 years old, and the father passed away, and the whole dynasty was over. Pain, the whole country mourns; the queen mother wants to let the king become the emperor, but the emperor's brother disagrees, and goes to the palace of compassion several times to argue with the queen mother; one day, the queen mother calls the king to go to the palace of compassion and discuss with her about the establishment of a new emperor. When the emperor's brother came unexpectedly, the queen mother ordered the king to hide behind the screen and deal with the emperor's brother alone; the dispute resumed, the emperor's brother was angry, and pushed the mother's queen, who hit the stone pillar and died on the spot; the emperor's brother Afterwards, an edict was issued to the world, saying that the queen mother missed her father and emperor too much, was too sad, died of illness, and became emperor on her own; in the latter place, the emperor brother also lied to the king, saying that before the death of the mother, the queen issued a will, ordering the king to assist him in handling state affairs ;This king wanted to tell the officials about the fact that the emperor's brother pushed his mother to death. However, the emperor's brother and this king were identical twins, and they treated this king very well since childhood. If this king tells the truth, the emperor's brother will definitely I was forced to die; this king couldn't bear to see his siblings being forced to die, so he chose to conceal this matter; it's just that this matter has dealt too much blow to this king, and it has already made me feel disheartened about the brotherhood and the friendship between monarch and minister in this world , I can’t believe it anymore; in despair, in the second year of the Celestial Dynasty, the king was 15 years old, and he was the emperor’s elder brother who volunteered to lead the army; after ten years, he fought in the south and north all day long, and rarely returned to Beijing. .”

After a few words, Shangguan Yunyan briefly told the secret story of Shangguan Xuanlie's mother murder. Ling Xiaodao looked at his expression, as if he was talking about other people's affairs, not his own. His expression was indifferent and his face was indifferent. .

After a moment of silence, Ling Xiaodao said sourly: "With such a brother, it's no wonder you told me that you didn't like life in the court; you would rather be a bandit than return to the capital, it must be related to this matter; Yan, don't be discouraged, don't be sad, I will definitely give birth to seventeen or eight children for you in the future, so that you will no longer feel lonely, and you will never feel that you are only me."

As the words fell, Ling Xiaodao's eyes were filled with tears of pity, and he hugged his waist with great distress, thinking: 14 years old, Yan should still be a half-grown boy, it is really pitiful to see such a tragic and desolate murder of his mother !Shangguan Xuanlie, Shangguan Xuanlie, you are also a little bit cruel. In order to be the emperor, you also killed your own mother; before the Leng family had doubts about your character, I still defended you, saying that you Mercy... Mercy ass, you have a heart like a snake and a scorpion, and I am blind.
