Chapter 414 The Empress Dowager Yuan's Favorite Person

Tang Xi propped his elbows on the table, supported his chin and clicked his tongue softly: "It seems that Lord Luo at that time was quite innocent."

"Because the queen mother had the help of the former queen, the emperor treated her well. Therefore, her natal family has also restored its former prosperity. It is precisely because of this that she is ungrateful and selfish."

Xie Cheng took a sip of his tea and continued: "Before the queen died of illness, she entrusted her two sons to the queen mother. The queen mother was loyal to them, but she was neither cold nor cold to her own son. That's why Lord Luo's resentment towards her arose."

Tang Xi sighed softly, "I wouldn't like such a mother even if it were me."

"It wasn't long before the former empress died of illness, and the former emperor also fell ill. That's when the war started."

He smiled lightly and said: "At that time, the Yuan family, the queen mother's mother's family, wanted Lord Luo to become the throne, so in the middle of the night, they sent someone to send the poison into the harem and handed it over to the queen mother, hoping that she could give the prince and his majesty the crown prince at that time. King Yu was poisoned to death, but unfortunately, the Empress Dowager did not poison them, and even ordered people to tie up the Yuan family who brought in the poison, and recruited all the officials to expose the Yuan family's crimes on the spot."

Tang Xi was stunned, "So ruthless? What happened to the Yuan family?"

Xie Cheng said: "The whole family is copied and chopped."

"How much does the Empress Dowager Yuan hate the Yuan family?"

Tang Xi really couldn't figure out what kind of hatred made the Empress Dowager Yuan make such a decision.

Xie Chengdao: "It's probably because the Yuan family's ugly face made her feel disgusted, or it may have something to do with her entering the palace. Of course, I also heard that not long after she entered the palace, her sweetheart threw himself into the river."

"Could it be that her sweetheart was killed by the Yuan family?"

"Very likely." Xie Cheng said: "At that time, it was said that the Empress Dowager Yuan gave him some silver notes and pearl hairpins before saying goodbye to her sweetheart, and even witnessed him leaving the capital. Found dead in the moat."

Tang Xi frowned, "Or is it that the man lost his lover and couldn't think about it for a while?"

"Impossible." Xie Cheng shook his head, "I heard at the time that although the man was in love with the Empress Dowager Yuan, it was not enough to make her obsessed. Moreover, it was said that the man had a concubine at home. You said, how could such a person throw himself into the river for a woman?"

"So, maybe this man's death is really related to the Yuan family?" She frowned slightly, "But even so, the Yuan family is still the Empress Dowager Yuan's family, right? They wouldn't kill my whole family because of a man, right? "

"Of course, there is another possibility." Xie Cheng said, "She wants to cut off Lord Luo's left and right arms."

Tang Xi shook his head and sighed secretly, "This Queen Mother Yuan is really a ruthless person!"

No matter what the reason is, being able to put one's family to death is indeed cruel enough.

Xie Cheng coughed lightly, and said, "I've heard a guess, but I don't know if it's true or not. After all, I wasn't born at that time, and I just heard someone mention it later."

"What guess?" Tang Xi asked.

"This rumor is a bit outrageous, but there are traces to follow." He looked at her, as if hesitating whether to say it or not.

"What's wrong? Can't you tell me?"

Tang Xi was puzzled, she picked up the teacup, and as soon as she drank it, she heard Xie Cheng say, "That's not true, that is, it is rumored that the person Empress Dowager Yuan likes is actually the former empress."
