The Queen Mother is dead
The Zongzhengling waited for the old prince to announce the decree, and the eldest princess followed him.
If the Queen Mother didn't die of anger, the Grand Princess would also want to kill her.
The empress dowager's status was abolished, she could not enjoy the national mourning, and her body was transported out of the palace to find a place to be buried.
The eldest princess wanted to throw the empress dowager to the wolves, and was very dissatisfied with Emperor Shengwu's decision to find a place to bury the empress dowager.
In the eyes of the Grand Princess, the Queen Mother did not deserve a burial. If she was not thrown to feed the wolves, her body would be thrown into a mass grave.
"After all, I have been raised by you."
Emperor Shengwu's words stopped the eldest princess from speaking.
"What's the military situation in the southwest? Is it possible that the generals sent by the emperor can capture Wu Chengqi?"
The eldest princess looked sad. "It's a pity that my health is not as good as before, otherwise I would have to go to the southwest to chop off Wu Chengqi's dog head to comfort the spirit of the late emperor."
"I have made arrangements, Aunt, please take a look."
Emperor Shengwu didn't say much.
After Wu Chengqi rebelled, he sent 50,000 armored troops to the southwest to quell the rebellion.
In the opinion of the Grand Princess, in the southwest region, Wu Chengqi alone controls 100,000 elite soldiers. If the entire southwest is added, it is a huge number and the enemy should not be underestimated.
But the eldest princess also hoped that Emperor Shengwu would lead the army in person.
"My aunt has overstepped her bounds."
Emperor Shengwu was extremely displeased. His aunt was old but still restless, and her ambition to interfere in politics had never subsided.
"Your Majesty, please don't blame me. My aunt is also confused by Liu's anger."
The eldest princess said nothing more and left the palace tactfully.
Emperor Shengwu sneered, caring about the southwest but not the disaster area. This was the policy of the Grand Princess.
He only cares about power, not people's livelihood.
Once the Queen Mother died, the entire harem became completely peaceful.
Bei Lingyao's spiritual consciousness was focused on the situation in the Heavenly Prison.
Bei Hongjiao, who had both legs crippled, was the most miserable. She had people serving her before, but now she was thrown into a corner and no one cared about her.
He couldn't even eat the prison food; as soon as it was served, it was snatched away.
He was so hungry that he could only eat dirt and grass, and his eyes would turn green when he saw rats and cockroaches.
His hair was disheveled, messy and sticky, and full of flies, mosquitoes and fleas.
In this state, Bei Hongjiao couldn't think of dying, and couldn't commit suicide. She was very devastated.
She provoked Prince Fu's wives and concubines from time to time, hoping that they would kill her, so she kept speaking foul language and making all kinds of vulgar remarks.
New wounds are added to old ones every day, and those who are about to breathe will always be revived.
The Liu and Wu clansmen next door looked on coldly, full of hatred for Prince Fu.
Wu Chengqi was loyal to the late emperor, so even though the Wu family did not take sides, they also favored Prince Fu in their hearts.
But they never expected that Prince Fu was actually their brother.
All that was left was pure hatred. The Wu family, the Liu clan, and the people from Prince Fu's Palace engaged in daily verbal battles in the prison.
The following year, the armored army successfully suppressed the rebellion in the southwest, captured the mighty general Wu Chengqi alive and brought him back to the capital.
The speed is jaw-dropping.
Even Wu Chengqi didn't expect that he would be defeated so quickly, just like playing house.
He thought that the subordinates and confidants he had won over were all Emperor Shengwu's men.
Even the son-in-law.
To him, it was extremely ironic!
Upon learning that the Queen Mother had been deposed and died, Wu Chengqi felt no love for her, nor was he as happy as he was to learn that Prince Fu was his son.
There is only hatred.
That bitch Liu Rulan harmed him.
If Liu Rulan hadn't written to him, he would never have rebelled.
But no matter what Wu Chengqi thought, he was being escorted back to Beijing to face the final judgment.
Rescue efforts were also received in various disaster areas.
The cells of Prince Fu and the mighty general Wu Chengqi were next to each other.
When father and son looked at each other, Prince Fu's eyes were filled with hatred. He could not accept that he was not the son of the late emperor, but the son of the mighty general Wu Chengqi.
In the past, people always described Emperor Shengwu as a bastard, thinking that he was the legitimate son of the late emperor and the orthodox royal family.
Looking at Emperor Shengwu and thinking about him were filled with contempt and arrogance.
Now he is even treated like a bastard.
Prince Fu hated General Weiwu, the man who made him unbearable.
He also hated the Queen Mother very much.
If I had told him my life story earlier, he would have been able to use it to do many things.
Or if he had gotten rid of the mighty general, he wouldn't be facing the current predicament.
Mother, you have brought suffering to your son.
He shouted at Wu Chengqi, "I am the son of the late emperor, the legitimate son of my father. Wu Chengqi, you, a mere subject, have committed heinous crimes and deserve to be tortured to death. I will never acknowledge you as my father."
Wu Chengqi showed disdain, "It just so happens that this general doesn't want to acknowledge you as his son either. You are not worthy."
Prince Fu went crazy and started yelling and cursing at Wu Chengqi.
Wu Chengqi sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and rested, ignoring Prince Fu as air.
The son the Queen Mother gave birth to for him was so despicable that he didn't want to acknowledge him at all.
In February of the following year, the imperial examination is held.
Bei Liulang and Bei Qilang stood out among the candidates.
After the palace examination, Liulang ranked second, and Qilang ranked slightly behind, at twentieth.
The Bei family had eight Jinshi scholars in one family, which is rare in ancient and modern times. It has been passed down as a good story and people talk about it with relish.
After the special examination, a number of successful candidates took up their posts.
The treatment of Prince Fu, the Liu family, and the Wu family was also announced.
Kill all nine clans!
On this day, Bei Lingyao left the palace and returned to Duke Cheng'en's mansion.
"No need to make it public."
Bei Lingyao cancelled all the pomp and circumstance, leaving Emperor Shengwu in the palace to take care of the baby while she returned to her parents' home.
"Mother~Queen"
The almost one-year-old baby started crying loudly when he saw Bei Lingyao leaving in the sedan chair.
No matter how Emperor Shengwu tried to coax him, it wouldn't work.
Usually, his son sticks to him and he spends more time with him.
Unexpectedly, after Bei Lingyao left the palace, her son became angry and refused to cooperate.
"My queen, that's the prince crying." Zhihua lifted the curtain in the carriage and looked back.
"It will be fine in a moment. Usually when the emperor comes, he only wants the father and not the mother, hehe."
Bei Lingyao spoke with a hint of jealousy, not knowing if it was because of Emperor Shengwu's birth. Although her father was strict and her mother was kind, her son liked Emperor Shengwu more.
She thought about taking her son back to the Bei family, but then she thought about going to West Market, where the atmosphere was too murderous and it would not be easy for a child to go there.
"stop"
The carriage stopped at the West Market. Bei Lingyao got off, walked around, and began to set up the formation.
At noon, everyone in Prince Fu's Mansion was forced out first. Bei Lingyao used her spiritual sense to control the jailer and lead Bei Hongjiao into the soul-destroying formation.
At this time, the vegetable market was bustling with people, and many people came to look. They were not afraid at all, but instead looked excited.
Bei Hongjiao had a numb look on her face. She wasn't afraid, but instead looked forward to death.
The months of being imprisoned in the clan residence and the prison were painful and torturous, and she no longer wanted to live.
At this time, Bei Hongjiao did not see Bei Lingyao in the crowd. She looked at the sunny sky and closed her eyes slightly.
Do you regret it?
Regret!
If there is an afterlife, she will definitely stay in the Censorate and never act recklessly again.
The knife came down, heads rolled down, and only a beeping sound was heard from the system.
"Let's go."
Bei Lingyao slowly left in a carriage.
[Ding! The host has completed 80% of the mission, 80 reward points, 10 draws, keep up the good work.]
Bei Lingyao's eyes lit up. She loved raffles and the like.
