Chapter 866 Everything must have a cause and effect
Speaking of which, Sima Lie was also a poor man. He and his lover met in the palace and got married because of a chicken leg.
At first glance, he was attracted by the girl in white clothes with innocent eyes.
"Sima Lie, the mountains and rivers in our southern Xinjiang are so beautiful. I will definitely take you to see them if you have the chance."
"Sima Lie, I like you."
"Sima Lie...I can't stay with you anymore..."
"Sima Lie, it hurts so much, and my stomach hurts too."
"The child and I...are waiting for you."
…
Aguduo was found to have contacts with southern Xinjiang. The evidence in Mu Jingche's hands was conclusive, and Queen Changsun could not protect her.
She killed many imperial guards in the palace and wanted to escape Fengtian.
Mu Jingyan was ordered to kill Xizuo and it was his mission to kill Aduozhu.
When Sima Lie arrived, Aguduo was almost out of breath.
A living person... slowly becomes cold in his arms. It becomes cold, which is unacceptable to Sima Lie.
He hates, hates everyone in the Mu family.
I hate Mu Jingyan even more.
…
Chaoyang glanced at Shen Qingzhou. "Sima Lie hated the Mu family and vented his hatred and anger on the Mu family army, but did not dare to seek revenge from the late emperor. He is also a coward."
Shen Qingzhou shook his head. "He assassinated the late emperor and was rescued by me. This person is still useful to me and Fengtian."
At that time, it was the time when the late emperor was dealing with the Changsun family and wanted to recruit people.
If Sima Lie makes good use of it, it is still a good knife.
"Everything has a cause and effect." Chaoyang sighed helplessly.
Mu Jingyan was following orders to kill Aguduo. It was difficult to disobey the emperor's order, so he had to kill him.
Sima Lie loved Aguduo and killed so many Mu family soldiers for Aguduo, and became crazy because of his love.
"Although Mu Jingche and Mu Jingyan are brothers, there is a big gap between them. Mu Jingche is stupid and loyal, and does not know how to adapt. The late emperor's orders are death orders, and Aduozhu is a spy in southern Xinjiang.
It was Mu Jingche who found out his identity and had enough evidence."
Mu Jingche is too old-fashioned. He believes that the emperor's order is destiny and he has to follow it.
If the king wants his subjects to die, it would be unfaithful for them not to die.
"The confrontation with the Changsun family back then was a war without gunpowder. The Mu family made outstanding achievements in destroying the foundation of the Changsun family. His injuries were also caused by Changsun Yunxiao."
Chaoyang nodded and said nothing.
Foolishness and loyalty are the nature of the Mu family.
When it comes to Mu Jingyan, it seems to be an exception.
Huaicheng, Huaichen. It can also be seen from the name that Mu Jingche conveyed his absolute loyalty to the late emperor and bowed his head.
This kind of person cannot be said to be wrong, but he is definitely pathetic.
"When Empress Changsun was impeached, Mu Jingche took the lead. Jingchen's hatred of the Mu family and me was also the cause and effect of the past." The cycle of cause and effect leads to unsatisfactory retribution.
"No one knew that Jingchen was still alive. Even I thought he had died in that assassination and that fire."
Shen Qingzhou was recalling the past. In that year, both the late emperor and Empress Changsun were living in suffering.
In fact, the late emperor loved Empress Changsun very much, and Empress Changsun once loved the late emperor deeply. However, their love was different and the ways of expressing their love were also different.
Slowly, paranoid people become more paranoid, and their love becomes deeper and more crazy.
But those who don’t love will slowly smooth out their edges and will no longer be able to love.
Empress Changsun fell in love with someone else, which was also a fatal blow to the late emperor.
He thought about redeeming himself and making amends, but it was all to no avail.
A person's heart is dead, no matter how you try to restore it, it will not help.
"The late emperor used Queen Changsun as a bait to trick Jing Chen out, and then sent out masters of the imperial army to surround Jing Chen. Knowing Jing Chen's ability to control poison, he had people sprinkle limestone, realgar and other drugs near the bamboo house in advance to hinder the poison insects from entering.
Okay, then I personally... shot Jingchen in the heart with an arrow."
Shen Qingzhou was also very surprised, how did Jingchen survive.
"I set the fire in the bamboo house, obviously... I saw him being engulfed by the fire with my own eyes, and I have never doubted his death in these years."
Chaoyang glanced at Shen Qingzhou. "Did Queen Changsun become desperate after hearing the cause of Jingchen's death?"
Shen Qingzhou nodded.
"She hated the late emperor, and the two tortured each other for a long time. Empress Changsun had always had a strong murderous intention towards the late emperor, and the poison was also poisoned at that time." Empress Changsun hated the late emperor, so... she would eat in the late emperor's meals.
Poisoned.
The late emperor knew it was poisonous, but never exposed it.
It was Empress Changsun who collapsed first and committed suicide by swallowing poison.
That was her final revenge on the late emperor.
"We descendants cannot comment on other people's feelings." Chaoyang was silent. She actually couldn't tell who was right and who was wrong.
Let’s talk about Empress Changsun first. The late emperor made her despair and made her not love her anymore. If Chaoyang thought about it from this perspective, Empress Changsun was not wrong.
It seems inevitable that she would fall in love with Jingchen.
Instead of torturing each other, why not find your own freedom?
What's more, it was indeed the late emperor who was at fault in the first place and was using his eldest grandson Luo Qi from the beginning to the end to make her despair.
But from the perspective of the late emperor, as a lover, he made a big mistake and was destined to lose his beloved, but as an emperor, he did nothing wrong.
The Changsun family is deeply rooted, and its big tree attracts wind, even threatening the imperial power.
As the emperor, he should think carefully and get rid of the hidden danger of the Changsun family.
As the elder family of Fengtian, the Changsun family helped Fengtian to establish its country, appease the government and various states, build canals, and focus on commerce and trade, allowing Fengtian's economy to develop rapidly in just a few years.
He was a hero, but he ended up like a rabbit or a fox.
Of course, this is inevitable. The Changsun family has indeed... endangered the imperial power.
As for Jingchen...
This person makes Chaoyang unpredictable and even more unclear.
When he fell in love with Queen Changsun, he should have known that this was a tragedy. After all, Queen Changsun was someone else's first wife.
Even though Empress Changsun desperately wanted to escape from the purgatory and prison of the palace. "I really want to know, when Jingchen appeared next to Empress Changsun, was he already the owner of Anmei Tower? How deep is his love for Empress Changsun?
Part of it is truth, part of it is calculation.”
Shen Qingzhou shook his head. "No, Jingchen at that time was definitely not the owner of Anmei Tower, otherwise... the late emperor would not have been able to kill him so easily."
Judging from Shen Qingzhou's investigation back then, the owner of Anmei Tower was someone else.
Jing Chen took over Anmei Building later.
"That means...the person who harmed so many innocent children to refine the Gu and used his master to refine the medicine was not Jing Chen." Chaoyang looked at Shen Qingzhou in shock.
"Since Jingchen can inherit Anmei Tower, he will definitely not be innocent." Shen Qingzhou said in a deep voice.
"Things back then were really chaotic."
It involves too many people and love and hatred.
There are entanglements of interests and emotional disputes, and everything is mixed together and shrouded in a web.
And the master behind this network controls everything.
It seems now that no one knows who was behind all this.
And Jingchen...isn't someone else's chess piece or puppet.
…
Mujia.
Mu Huaichen waited anxiously outside the door, pacing left and right. "How is father's injury?"
Xue Jinghua walked out of the room and shook his head.
Mu Jingche was injured too seriously.
He couldn't use force, but he was forced to use his internal strength, which shocked his own internal organs and put his life on the line.
Mu Huaichen's steps froze for a moment and he slowly lowered his eyes.
Brother Huaicheng is still in Jiayuguan and cannot come back. His father is seriously injured...
The burden of the entire Mu family will fall on him alone.
[The author has something to say]
Babies, the next chapter will write a little bit about the past between the three empresses and grandsons. I’ll make up for it in the middle of the night. Everyone will read it tomorrow.
