Dongli drinks wine after dusk

Chapter 224 Elaborate Fabrication

In the past when the old emperor was still there, Concubine Zhao still controlled a little bit. As a concubine, the Great Zhou Dynasty did not regard fat as beauty. Naturally, she had to consider the emperor's mood, and she couldn't eat and drink fat into a ball.

When the old emperor was gone, she was able to be taken care of by her own son outside the palace. She was the largest in the three-acre area of ​​Prince An's Mansion. Without the empress dowager, empress, etc. who were higher than her, she began to let go completely. self.

It's not a problem to eat good food and wear these hobbies that can be satisfied with a little money, and Wang An is happy to be used to her.Therefore, Concubine Zhao's life after leaving the palace was not to mention very nourishing.

But at the same time, this is also the main reason for her high-sightedness and defiantness: the life is too comfortable, so comfortable that she forgets how cautious and cautious she is in the palace.

well!Zhao Dongzhuo didn't go around in circles anymore, and only explained his intentions when his aunt was full and put down her chopsticks.

"Auntie, my nephew's visit this time is really a bit tricky. It has something to do with my aunt. I'm here to ask you to understand." Zhao Dongzhang in front of Concubine Zhao, most of the time would show a bit of a youthful heart, unlike now Seriously.

"What's the matter? It's fine." Concubine Zhao was a little confused for a moment: "But your mother at home is making trouble with you again?"

"It has nothing to do with my mother. Auntie, do you still remember that there used to be a big palace maid named Chaoyang?"

"Chaoyang?" Concubine Zhao was in a daze for a while. How long has it been since she heard this name? It must have been ten or twenty years?
"It happened a long time ago, right? She was by my side for a while when Shen'er was young."

Generally, the first-class maids who accompany the concubine are all concubines' confidantes, who are absolutely trusted and relied on, either the personal maid brought from home, or the acquaintance at Wei Mo, who has a little kindness in it.

But Chaoyang is not in the above two situations, she is an exception, the original first-class court lady beside Concubine Zhao, her absolute confidant, died young, in her early twenties, died of illness.

So the skylight was opened at the position of the big maid next to Concubine Zhao, and it was at this time that Chaoyang was pushed in by the House of Internal Affairs.

The master and the servant stared at each other for more than two years, but they still couldn't fully communicate with each other. In the end, Concubine Zhao found the most suitable excuse. Chaoyang was not young enough to meet the criteria for being released to marry outside the palace, so she was put in peace. Send away steadily.

Just kidding, although she didn't have any shady moves, there are some things in the palace that everyone can do in private, but if you really talk about it, it's a sin.

So there are really concubines that people who don't know the basics dare to use, and they don't know how they will die when the time comes.

Therefore, she has very little impression of Chaoyang: "I never knew who she belonged to, but it is obvious that she should have another master behind her. For some reason, she was assigned to my palace in a daze."

"Does my aunt know that after she left the palace, did she really get married, or did she have another place to go?"

"I wished I could drive her away, so why would I care about her whereabouts?"

That is to say, in the secret conversation between Qingping and Chaoyang in the inner room at that time, it is very likely that the so-called master Chaoyang said was not Concubine Zhao, and there was someone else behind her.

It has been 20 years, and it is not easy to find the whereabouts of a maid who has been released from the palace. The only way out now is to wait for Zhao Dongli to see if he has any new discoveries in Lanling.

In the final analysis, it is necessary to find out the reason why Princess Qingping attacked these three families.

Why does she need the lives of these three families, why does she have so much money, and whether she wants to rebel or not has to be discussed in the long run.

Of course, Zhao Dongzhang did not accept all of Concubine Zhao's words, but entrusted acquaintances to inquire privately. Even though 20 years have passed, there is always room for inquiries about old affairs in the palace.

As a result of the investigation, at least Concubine Zhao did not lie. Chaoyang did enter the palace at the age of ten and left the palace at the age of 25. Only in the last less than two years did she interact with Concubine Zhao. Before that, the two could not find any connection.

Zhao Dongxuan couldn't help but want to make a conspiracy theory. Is there someone who intends to drag Concubine Zhao into the water? After all, as a concubine with a favorite and a son, she represents many meanings. Pulling her into the water is nothing but profit. One harm.

I still have to track down Chaoyang's whereabouts.

There are so many things in one body, and there are some key things that he can't share with the Jiang family to ask for help.If it is found out later that it involves royal secrets, he himself is the emperor's man, so if he knows more, it won't matter. If more people know, it will only lead to death.

Something happened to the Jiang family, Zhao Dongli had to eat him!
Not to mention the power of Dingguo government, the reason is the same as above, of course, there is also the reason that he is afraid that his father will know too much, and he will not be able to sleep at night.

Therefore, the few hidden guards that can be used at hand are a few hidden guards trained by myself. When there are too many things, they are stretched, alas, bald.

Zhao Dongli entered the city gate in a hurry, with a lot of stubble growing on his chin, which made him look a few years older, but he was still in good spirits.

After returning home, he drank down two cups of the best West Lake Longjing in one gulp, and then wiped his mouth and said, "There is a problem with the Tao family's case."

The file records that the case was closed on the grounds that bandits were a disaster.

When Zhao Dongli approached Kong Xiangying at first, when the other party learned of his purpose, the smile on his old face was completely hidden, replaced by a deep guard.

"It happened 20 years ago. I have a bad memory. I'm afraid I can't help you." Then he started playing Tai Chi and didn't answer.

But Zhao Dongli got his elder brother's advice, and asked every sentence, pointing to the vital point, making Kong Xiangying inevitable, and finally had to tell him a few truths.

Zhang Cong's group of bandits are actually a rabble, and they use all kinds of weapons, but the Tao family is full of people, but their injuries are all knife wounds. No matter the angle or force of the knife, they are all just right. They can kill with one knife without wasting it. Extra strength.

What does this mean?It shows that everyone in the Tao family was probably killed by a person, and this person is likely to be a professional killer, and Zhang Cong and others are just scapegoats.

"Knowing that there is a grievance, why did your lord close the case so hastily?" Zhao Dongli was furious at that time, dozens of people died!

Kong Xiangying was also very helpless: "Because so many people died, everyone was watching from top to bottom, and I couldn't close the case. I'm afraid my officials have gone too far. Someone had to give me an idea to find the bandits on the mountain. Take the blame, anyway, they are not good people, and it would not be a pity to die."

The case of co-authoring the Tao Family Miemen is still an unjust, false and wrongly decided case.

There is no trace of Tao Luo's relationship with the bandit leader Zhang Cong, or the looting of the Tao family. The entire dossier was carefully fabricated by Kong Xiangying.
