Chapter 315

Yuan Zhao was very sad about his brother's death.But she has too many things to think about, and she has no time to be sad.In the eyes of others, she is very calm.

So peaceful!

When her parents left, at least she shed tears; when the sixth brother left, she didn't respond; now the third brother has also left...

Being too calm makes others feel that she is cold-blooded and doesn't care about family affection.

As a result, later generations deduced from the development of the situation that Bei Yueli's death was one of her plans to break the situation of "nothing to do without haste".Because he was alive, she couldn't get out.It can be seen that in the face of conspiracy, family affection and so on are all false.

Of course, that is something for later, so I won’t repeat it for now.

Speaking of the present, in order for Xu's body to return to the capital smoothly, and be buried in the mausoleum with the Beiyue ceremony.Yuan Zhao kept a rubbing copy of the letter and handed over the original to Emperor Yongchang.

Only in this way, the officials investigating the case will suspect that there is something wrong with Xu's death, and Erniang Feng will allow the two mothers to be buried with their son.

Only by keeping Xu's body intact can Yuan Zhao focus on investigating the cause of his death.

Hongye read Xu's letter and guessed that she had fallen victim to Yanshu's witchcraft.Only witchcraft can make a person lose his mind and greatly increase his skill.The problem is, Xu Shi has practiced martial arts, although she has tried to find someone, it is difficult to guarantee that she will hide her strength.

Therefore, it is not accurate, and the body must be examined before a conclusion can be drawn.In addition, witchcraft is only found in Yan and Shu, and the Xu family is from Qi.

Who killed the third brother and his wife still needs to be checked again and again.

The government has official investigation procedures. Since the court has never treated his family fairly, Yuan Zhao does not trust the official answers.Therefore, the official checks the official ones, and her people have other channels to secretly investigate and find the truth.

Something happened to the Xu family, and the other two concubines who were also bestowed by the late emperor received Yuan Zhao's signal to ask them to leave the mansion to prove their innocence.If the Duke's government refuses to agree, they will have to die to ensure the safety of their husband and children.

The Duke couldn't help it, so he had to go to the palace to tell the saint.

Emperor Yongchang was very disturbed by the successive disasters in the Duke's Mansion, and wished he could get out of the matter as soon as possible, and responded immediately.It is said that they are already members of the Duke's Mansion, whether they are dead or alive, whether they go or stay at their discretion, and have nothing to do with the royal family.

The two concubines took the documents and left the mansion at midnight without a trace.Their children stayed in the Duke's Mansion and were raised in the aunt's courtyard.

After they left the mansion, Yuan Zhao sent people to take them to a Zhuangzi, and asked Hongye to carefully check if there was any abnormality on their bodies.It's a pity that nothing was found, because the witchcraft can't be seen until the onset of the witchcraft, so it is called witchcraft.

"Who in the world can break this witchcraft?" Yuan Zhao asked Hongye.

"Since you are known as a witch, of course you need help from a wizard." Hongye said regretfully, "Unfortunately, I won't. I heard from my master that your Beicang master Sang family is a wizard with psychic abilities. If he is here, why worry about it?" Can't solve this witchcraft?"

It is also a pity that after Bei Cang's death, the whereabouts of the Sang family were unknown.

After hearing this, Yuan Zhao couldn't help raising his eyebrows slightly.

In short, since then, the two concubines have disappeared without a trace.

……

At the beginning of May in the fourth year of Yongchang, the coffin of Bei Yueli, who was chased as Zhenxihou, returned to the capital.As for Mrs. Xu, the authorities cremated her body in Western Shanxi to investigate whether she was poisoned or poisoned, but still no abnormality was found.

Therefore, only the ashes of her mother and father came back.

In front of the west gate of the capital, according to the order of the eldest princess, she scattered it on the horse path and let others trample on it to vent her hatred.

Yuan Zhao had anticipated Erniang's reaction, and packed up the ashes of Xu's wife in advance, and found another place to hide the bones.When the truth is found out in the future, the ashes of the two mothers will be buried with the third brother.

All of this, the Duke's Mansion and Erniang knew nothing, and they didn't need to know, so as not to cause disputes.

Brothers and sisters are easy to discuss, but Erniang is stubborn, Yuan Zhao doesn't want to argue with her because of this matter.The future is long, and there will always be some wishes that conflict with Er Niang.

For example, today, when all the ministers came to express their condolences, a pair of mother and son dressed in sackcloth and filial piety knelt and wept at the door of the Duke's mansion, claiming in public that they were Bei Yueli's concubine and son.

The woman's surname is Rong, she is beautiful, gentle and elegant, she looks like a virtuous and virtuous person; the little boy beside her is five years old this year, with a round face, carefully identified, it does have a little appearance of Zhenxihou when he was young.

The woman also brought a jade pendant, which was a personal belonging from the princess Fengshi to Zhenxihou.

Upon hearing the news, the grief-stricken eldest princess suddenly regained her spirits, and hurriedly came out to confirm the jade pendant.After looking at it carefully, he finally hugged the little boy and cried bitterly.

The Duke and his sons stepped forward to persuade her, but Feng turned a deaf ear to it, and still hugged the foreign grandson and wept bitterly.The heartbroken Yan's eyes were deeply hurt by the scene in front of him, and the hand hanging by his side couldn't help but clenched tightly.

She can tolerate the concubines bestowed by the late emperor, and can even gladly accept any woman who makes her husband fall in love with her.

However, he raised his wife and his children were so old that he didn't say a word about his first wife.This move was tantamount to deceit, and it was extremely disrespectful to the wife. She was so shocked that she forgot her sadness for a while.

What's more, there are quite a few officials who came to express their condolences today. This move by the mother-in-law is equivalent to trusting the woman and the grandson.If Mrs. Yan raises doubts at this time, she will be hated by her mother-in-law, and she will be called a jealous and disobedient woman.

In the eyes of the world, it is commonplace for a man to raise a concubine outside.Especially for military generals like Zhenxihou who have been stationed outside for a long time, how can there be no women around him?
It is common in all countries to add fragrance to the red sleeves.

When a man died, it was only natural for the outer room to bring the child to worship.It can also take the opportunity to let the children recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Although there is a jade pendant, even though the little boy looks similar to the third brother when he was young, it doesn't mean that he is the third brother's son!
In this world, there are many people who look alike, but the Duke is suspicious.Helpless, A Niang was in great grief, she hugged the little boy and refused to let go, but she couldn't force it.

If you question it on the spot, I don't know if A Niang can bear the blow.

Under many concerns, he planned to bring him into the mansion first to settle down.Wait until the third brother's funeral is over before handling the mother and son carefully.

He was about to order someone to bring the mother and child in, when a figure passed by and came directly behind the eldest princess, comforting him softly:

"Er Niang, you are tired, go back indoors and rest for a while."

After speaking, he stretched out his hand and pinched Erniang's back of the neck, quietly knocking her unconscious.Then put it gently in Luo Yan's arms, and said:
"Er Niang is too sad, don't get excited, send her back to Cuiwei Hospital, so that she can take care of her and make sure nothing goes wrong."

Luo Yan knew what she said, she was asking her to send someone to guard the Feng family, and not allow her to come out without permission.Comprehending the meaning of her superiors, she decisively picked up the eldest princess and agreed, and left the outer courtyard quickly.

At the same time, Dong Tang and Jin Shui each came out with a high chair and a high table to set them up.

Tsk, the things in the Duke's Mansion are always refreshing, and the onlookers are complaining in their hearts.While remembering the style in my heart, I will try to make it myself when I go back.

Yuan Zhao sat down peacefully, ignoring the eyes of others curiously looking at the seat under her, resting his left elbow lightly on the edge of the table, watching the pair who were slightly frightened by him, unconsciously clung to each other mother and son.

"You say you are Zhenxihou's concubine, apart from the jade pendant, what proof do you have?"

Since she came out, the audience was silent, even the sound of sobbing was frightened away.

As we all know, it is not difficult to enter the Duke's Mansion, as long as someone can hold Dongping Lane.Helpless, the person who could suppress her fainted at a critical moment. At this moment, even the emperor didn't want to go against her wishes.

Whether the mother and son can enter the door depends on God's will.
