The prince is sick: the doctor waits for the prince

Chapter 465: No Good Death
Emperor Zhongzong was a very mediocre and cowardly person. If his father and his two older brothers hadn't died under the rebellion, it would never have been his turn to save the world.Although he is simple and diligent, he never forgets the last order of Empress Xiaozhuang, but his aptitude is already there.He's not that stuff.Only two years after he ascended the throne, the power fell into Wang Du's hands.Wang Du made a rebellion, he couldn't suppress it, and he had little power to fight back.

At this time, Empress Zhongzong stepped forward.

This is a woman with great wisdom and courage. Wang Du stationed troops in Stone City, and the court was full of fear, so she dared to go to the enemy camp alone to find out the truth.For Ari, she is simply a cheat for Emperor Zhongzong by the system.When Wang Du was at its most powerful, she began to use the hand of Emperor Zhongzong to issue edicts.Promote rookies, win Jiangzuo natives, deploy rebellion, and disintegrate Wang Du's tribe... miraculously turned defeat into victory, and quelled the rebellion.

In the next ten years, all the imperial edicts of the Zhongzong Dynasty, big or small, came from her hands.She and Huan Buqing, one inside and one outside, forged the prosperity of Zhongxing.Huan Buqing's first Northern Expedition hit Pingcheng like a broken bamboo, regaining all the homeland south of the Yellow River, and it was about to be completed—Empress Zhongzong died.Jinping landslides, mainstay collapsed.Huan Buqing hastily returned to the army, which made Murong Jun famous, and failed in the first Northern Expedition.

Two years later, Emperor Zhongzong died.Three years later, Sima Yu's grandfather, Emperor Xiaomu, came to the throne.

After that, Sima Yu heard it countless times.But this time, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, "Emperor Zhongzong died, and when grandfather ascended the throne, there will be three years in between, why didn't the Taifu say anything?"

Xie Huan and Wang Tan looked at each other, and their expressions were a little subtle, "It's not impossible to say in the past three years." But where to start, it's a bit difficult, "Emperor Zhongzong has no son..."

Sima Yu nodded, thoughtfully, "The kings are fighting for the throne?"

"Not really..." Xie Huan said with a smile, "Emperor Zhongzong insisted on supporting Empress Xiaozhen's only daughter to ascend the throne. After Empress Xiaozhen passed away, Emperor Zhongzong abdicated, and in the next five years...the Empress came to court."

It's no wonder why it's so secretive.However, for more than twenty years, it was women who were trying to turn the tide, and everyone would wonder, what happened to the men of the Sima family?It was a matter of course for a female emperor to emerge at this time.

It's just that even the Taifu refused to tell the truth, I'm afraid that his grandfather's throne would be even more disgraceful.

Sima Yu didn't even know whether to ask or not.

In the end, I still asked, "How did my aunt abdicate?"

Both Tai Tuo and Wang Tan lowered their heads to drink tea, and after a while, they asked again: "Do you believe, Your Highness, that there are ghosts and gods in this world?"

Sima Yu: ...how come his women have such a relationship with ghosts and gods?

"Same as Empress Xiaozhuang?"

"We are not far away." Xie Huan said, "The army forced the palace, and it was completely surrounded. Under the eyes of everyone, the princess was still in the palace one moment, and the palace was full of sunshine the next moment. When the kings entered the palace to meet, there was only a piece of imperial edict left on the throne. I have disappeared." He paused for a while, and then said, "I was still young at the time, but I saw this with my own eyes."

The Taifu said that he "saw it with his own eyes", and this matter is likely to be reliable.

Sima Yu listened all afternoon to the difficulties of his predecessors in starting a business, but in the end, what he remembered was the sudden death or disappearance of three women.He himself felt that it was too inappropriate.

But gossip is more fascinating than official history, and there is no way around it.

When Sima Yu returned to the East Palace, Ah Li was writing at the window, and there were two or three green bamboos outside the window, and the light was bright.She herself was wearing a green gauze dress.The gauze sleeves were wide, so I held them with my left hand for fear of being stained with ink.With half exposed wrists and a slightly hanging jade pen, her appearance is elegant and indifferent to the world. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a faint fragrance of orchids, and the beautiful flowers shine in the water.

Sima Yu felt a little ecstatic.Thinking of those strange women of his ancestors who fought bloody lives but did not end well, he felt lucky—if he was as cowardly as Emperor Xiaozhuang, or as mediocre as Emperor Xiaozhen, Ari would have to be strong.
