Empress can't eat enough

Chapter 106 Exogenous Branches
What Wei Yingning wanted to know was just what happened to the previous generation in those years.

Since the founding of the country, the princes of the Great Zhou Dynasty have never been in succession.Every prince ascended to that position by stepping on someone else's corpse, and the struggle is especially fierce in this current generation.

It's also the fault of the first emperor, Li Chongjian's elder brother, that the harem was too full, and he had a temperament that liked to be evenly exposed to rain and dew, so that he had so many heirs, the prince alone gave birth to nineteen.

Dragons have nine sons, each of which is different, let alone these nineteen!However, the first emperor did not respect the eldest son, so he did not establish a heir for a long time.He wants his sons to fight, and whoever wins the fight will own the world.

Originally, it was just a small fight, and then it became serious. Today, today, relying on his own insidiousness, cunning and cruelty, he finally won.As for the other princes, those who died, those who were exiled, those who were demoted to common people, could no longer threaten his throne.

The third prince, Li Xiaohong, had no intention of becoming an emperor at first, he only wanted to be an idle prince, and grow old hand in hand with his beloved.But even so, he couldn't escape that damned fate...

"Go back and tell my daughter-in-law, tell her to persuade my Mu'er, don't take revenge for me and his father, just take her and escape from the right and wrong of the imperial power! Find a place of refuge and live a peaceful life This is the long-cherished wish of me and his father."

"Okay." Li Chongjian responded perfunctorily to her wish, then changed the subject and asked, "How did the topographic map of the Nanjiang king's tomb follow you into the coffin?

"The map of the southern border king's tomb?" Concubine Gao was a little surprised and didn't know about it.However, she knew something else: "Li Xiaojue is also sending people to look for the whereabouts of the Nanjiang King's tomb, saying that there is something in the tomb, and if you get it, you will get eternal life."

Li Xiaojue in her mouth is today's son.Today, today, he is also looking for the tomb of the southern border king...

However, where does eternal life come from in this world?Li Chongjian thought that behind this, there must be some unknown secret.

"There are a few poems that may be related to the tomb of the king of Southern Xinjiang." Concubine Gao said again, "I have heard Li Xiaojue recite it before."

"Which words?"

"Below is the river, above is the sun. The slender clouds make tricks, and the flying stars spread hatred. The sky and the earth are lonely, and the independent green peaks."

These are the words!Concubine Li also told Wei Yingning.

Concubine Gao said: "I don't know exactly what it means...I have to go."

"Wait a minute!" Li Chongjian called her to stop, "I have another question, do you know who performed this secret technique to prevent the reincarnation of the soul for you back then?"

"It was brought into the palace secretly by the eunuch Wang next to Empress Xiao. They called him Zhang Tianshi and respected him very much. I don't know the exact origin..." Concubine Gao paused, and asked: "This is also my daughter-in-law's request. Asked?"

Li Chongjian didn't say anything clearly, just smiled and said: "I'll send it here, it's easy for you to go all the way."

He quickly returned to Prince Huan's mansion.

Not surprisingly, Li Mu rested in Wei Yingning's room again.

In that side of the green silk brocade, there must be the love of husband and wife, the harmony of the phoenix... Li Chongjian sat alone on the cornice and sighed for a long time.

At this time, the door opened.

It's Wei Yingning.

With loose hair and pajamas, she saw Li Chongjian when she looked up.

A round of bright moon was hanging on the cornice, and his figure was inlaid in it by skill, which set off a good scene.

Wei Yingning clicked his tongue twice, but found that Li Chongjian seemed to have something on his mind, so he walked over quietly.

She came under the pomegranate tree, waved to him, and called softly, "Chongjian? Why do you look unhappy in the middle of the night?"

Li Chongjian noticed her just now, he was a little surprised, and replied: "I'm not unhappy at all."

Wei Yingning didn't ask any more questions, but changed the subject: "Is Concubine Gao sent away? What did she tell you?"

Li Chongjian appeared in front of her and told her: "She doesn't know much, and there is only one thing worth mentioning."

"What's the matter?"

"Do you still remember the few poems that Concubine Li told you? Concubine Gao also knows. She also said that these poems were also recited today, or they may be related to the tomb of the king of Southern Xinjiang."

"The Tomb of the Southern Border King?" Wei Yingning felt a little embarrassed, "How strange! What is the secret of the Southern Border King's Tomb, that so many people are involved with it?"

"Gao Guifei said that what the Son of Heaven is looking for is the law of eternal life. However, I thought it was just a cover." Li Chongjian was thinking about it, and he was also very interested in this matter.

"That's all!" Wei Yingning shook his head, "If you don't want to think about it, let those who want to think about it. The most important thing right now is the matter of King Huan."

"That's right! When he succeeds in ascending the throne, you don't have to worry about him anymore." Li Chongjian smiled.

He is still looking forward to Li Mu becoming the emperor.

Li Mu became the emperor, and Wei Yingning became the queen.The emperor is the emperor of the world, the emperor of three thousand beauties, but the queen can only be the queen of the emperor... At that time, according to Wei Yingning's temperament, how could she bear it?
Everything has variables.

"Princess Wangfei..." Suddenly, a female envoy hurried in from outside Qionghua Garden, followed by a nun.

Wei Yingning looked over, and suddenly realized that this nanny was Nanny Xie who was serving by the side of her natal mistress Liu.

But the maid and Xie Momo didn't expect Princess Huan to be standing alone under the pomegranate tree in the front yard at such a late hour, and they were both terrified.

"Why is Mammy Xie here?" When Wei Yingning saw her, he had a bad premonition in his heart.

For a nanny to come to the palace to look for her at such a late hour, risking the night, something must have happened at home!
"Eldest lady, go back and have a look! Second lady, she..." Seeing that there was an outsider, Nanny Zhang hesitated.

Wei Yingning signaled the female envoy leading the way to step back, and then asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with the second sister?"

"Second lady, she...she disappeared! Ya'er, who served her, disappeared together! They packed up the gold and silver, as if... seemed to have escaped."

"Escape?"

"The family only found out at night." Xie Mama said, "The second lady said that she would go to the Guanyin Temple to offer incense in the morning, and she would have a fast in the temple at noon, but she didn't return home at night. At first, the mistress thought she met someone outside. Damn, who knows that all the valuables in her house are gone..."

It's been a day!I'm afraid he has already left the capital... There is little hope of finding him in a short time.

Wei Yingning was extremely remorseful.

She knew that the second younger sister, Wei Qingluo, was emotionally unstable recently, and she also asked Ah Man to inquire about it.She thought it was only because she learned that Pingning Xiaohou Zhou Lingru was not sincere towards her that she became "crazy"...

She thought it was nothing, the second sister could finally figure it out, but she couldn't figure it out, her name was already written in the Zhou family's genealogy, what else could she do?

She didn't know that her second younger sister had such a big temper!Rather, she underestimated it.
