Chapter 369

Before Situ Qiao's words fell, Deng Yao scolded loudly: "Fart!

Situ Qiao smiled and said, "It stinks, it stinks!

Deng Yao was furious, and he was about to step forward with a fist. Chu Danyang and Xu Chenghe hurriedly stopped him. Liu Yong said: "Mr. Situ, don't talk nonsense. Who in the world does not know that Emperor Chengzu's biological mother is Empress Ma of Emperor Taizu's main palace? If Chengzu wasn't the son-in-law of Emperor Taizu and Empress Ma, even if he won the Battle of Jingyan and Emperor Jianwen, he wouldn't be able to sit still in this Ming Dynasty!"

Situ Qiao sneered: "Mr. Liu, what you said is important. The reason why Zhu Di, the old boy, wanted to lie that he was the prince born to Empress Ma was because he knew that if he didn't cover up the identity of Emperor Taizu and Empress Ma's sister-in-law, and kill a hundred Fang Xiaoru and Tie Xian, the world would not be his in the end. As the saying goes, if the name is right, if the name is not right, it will be difficult for him to raise troops and appease, but he will really become a usurper of the dynasty, and the world can punish him. ”

At this time, it has been more than 100 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and Emperor Chengzu seized the world with the battle of Jingjing, which is a matter known to the people of the world. As for Chengzu's origin, the world knows that he is the fourth son of Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma, who was later canonized as Empress Xiaoci Gao, that is, the fourth brother of Zhu Biao, the crown prince whom Emperor Taizu valued the most. Queen Ma had five sons and two daughters, among the five sons, the crown prince Zhu Biao died early, the second son was Zhu Zhang, the king of Qin, the third son was Zhu Li, the king of Jin, the fourth son was Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and the fifth son was Zhu Hu, the king of Wu. Empress Ma accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang to raise troops, went through many hardships and hardships, and always accompanied Emperor Taizu and was loyal. She has a dignified and dignified temperament, and her mother is all over the world, not only Emperor Taizu respects her very much, but even the ministers of the court and the central government are also respectful to Queen Ma. It is known to the world at the time that the successor to the throne of the great tomorrow must be one of the five sons of Queen Ma.

The crown prince Zhu Biao, humble and benevolent, corporal Lixian, won the favor of Emperor Taizu the most. It's just that he died young, and the world is sorry for it. Among the other four sons, the King of Qin, the King of Jin, and the King of Yan all have the ability to lead troops, and they are the three most powerful kings among the northern kings. King Wu was cowardly and could not compete with his three brothers. After the death of the crown prince Zhu Biao, the important ministers of the court thought that the three kings of Qin, Jin and Yan could inherit the unification. Later, the two kings of Qin and Jin died of illness one after another, and the king of Wu was not successful, and the courtiers thought that they could inherit the unification, and only Zhu Di, the king of Yan, could be called justifiable. It's just that Emperor Taizu regretted the early death of the crown prince Zhu Biao, and even set up Zhu Biao's eldest son Zhu Yunwen as the emperor's grandson, who was later Emperor Jianwen, and broke the idea of King Yan ascending the throne.

In the past hundred years, the government and the opposition have not had the slightest doubt about the origin of Chengzu Zhu Di, and no one has ever been arrogant enough to accuse Chengzu of not being born to Queen Ma. As soon as Situ Qiao's words came out, everyone scolded him in their hearts. Deng Yao is irritable, and when he squats at the door of the wine shop and teahouse on weekdays to listen to books, he likes to listen to idle books such as "Ming Yinglie" and "Yan Wang Sweeping the North", and he has a good impression of the heroic and strong Yan Wang Zhu Di in the storyteller's mouth. When the storyteller was telling the story, he told Zhu Di to talk to people, and often said, 'The fourth son of Empress Gao', and he did not forget to explain, saying that Empress Gao was Emperor Taizu's Yuan and Ma clan. It was because he heard Situ Qiao mention that King Yan was not Queen Ma's concubine, and he became furious, and he couldn't wait to knock out Situ Qiao's teeth with one punch, lest he talk wildly and talk nonsense.

Situ Qiao saw that everyone had a look of disbelief on their faces, and his heart became more and more proud, and then said: "It's not that I say it, it's just that everyone has heard and witnessed it, and they all say that Zhu Di was born to Queen Ma, so naturally you believe that these words are true." From Emperor Renzong, who inherited the throne of Zhu Di, to today's Emperor Jiajing, Zhu Di has been passed down in one line, so it is natural to cover up this matter cleanly, otherwise Zhu Di will not be in the right position, and the throne of his descendants will be a little unstable. What's more, most of the people who knew about it back then were killed by Zhu Di after the Battle of Jingjing, and the rest were also silent, which one dared to talk too much and bring disaster to his descendants? It has been a hundred years since the Battle of Jingjing, and this matter has long been annihilated, and no one knows about it......

When he said this, Murong Danyan was not convinced, and said, "What you said is too big. If there is such a thing, it will involve the royal family, and it will definitely cause a lot of disturbance, and many people will know about it. Even if Emperor Chengzu killed extremely badly, how could he hide the mouths of the people in the world?"

Situ Qiao glanced at Murong Danyan with disdain, and sneered: "Yellow-haired son, dare to argue with your words? I will ask you a question, do you know how many sons and daughters Emperor Jiajing has today, and which concubine was born to each of them?"

As soon as he said this, Murong Danyan was dumbfounded. How can the common people know about the royal affairs? Although there are many rumors, they do not know whether they are true or not. What's more, when Murong Danyan was in Jiangnan, the rules at home were very strict, and no one told her about these things. After that, she slipped out of Murong Villa and wandered around the rivers and lakes for only a few months, although she heard a lot of strange things, she didn't know anything about the current emperor's family affairs.

Seeing Murong Danyan's dazed face, Situ Qiao snorted, turned his head and glanced at everyone, and then said slowly: "Everyone present is either the head of a gang or the head of a decent family, and it can be said that everyone is well-informed. Can anyone say how many sons and daughters Emperor Jiajing has, and which concubine these princesses were born to?"

The crowd looked at each other, but no one answered.

Situ Qiao clapped his hands and said, "The situation that day is the same as your current situation. Zhu Di is not the concubine of Queen Ma, and naturally no one among the people knows. Emperor Taizu's perseverance, his control was extremely strict, and he also set up a brocade guard to spy on people's news, which one dared to discuss royal affairs in private? Many courtiers knew that Zhu Di was a concubine, but Emperor Taizu repeatedly made major cases, not only killing almost all of the founding heroes, but even the local officials were like cutting leeks, killing batch after batch. The officials sat in the court every day, and they were all worried, so how could they still have the heart to care about whether a certain prince was a concubine or a concubine? Not to mention that when Taizu was here, Zhu Yunwen had already been appointed as the emperor's grandson, and Zhu Di was sent far away to Beiping to drink the northwest wind, and he could not see the slightest hope of succeeding to the throne, and the ministers of the court and the central government would not pay attention to his origin. By the time Emperor Jianwen ascended the throne, I am afraid that except for a very few people in the palace, he is the minister of the court, and he does not know much about Zhu Di's background. After the Battle of Jingjing, within a few years, the Yan army invaded Nanjing, and the palace suddenly caught fire and burned clean. Although the legend in the world is that Emperor Jianwen did not want to be captured by the Yan army and set himself on fire, but did not Zhu Di set fire to it and wanted to burn all the people in the palace to death? Later, all the courtiers loyal to Emperor Jianwen died at the hands of Zhu Di, and he openly ascended the throne as the concubine of Empress Ma, and no one asked questions. At that time, among the five sons of Queen Ma, the crown prince Zhu Biao, Qin, and Jin had all died, and King Wu was not successful, and Emperor Jianwen self-immolated himself in the palace. It is Emperor Chengzu who inherits the unification, and there are many fewer obstacles. His painstaking efforts to pretend to be Queen Ma's concubine were not in vain!"

Chu Danyang said: "Your words are all speculation, and there is no real evidence, so they can't be counted!"

Situ Qiao shook his head, pointed to the picture on the wall and said, "Yao Guangxiao is the mastermind of King Yan, and he knows the life story of King Yan best. If King Yan was not a concubine, how could Yao Guangxiao leave such a mural in this underground underworld, alluding to Zhu Di's improper background? What's more, in my early years, there was still an adventure, which further confirmed the fact that Zhu Di was not the concubine of Queen Ma. ”

When he said this, he laughed triumphantly a few times, just waiting for everyone to ask, and he explained them one by one. It's just that everyone at this time saw his thoughts clearly, knowing that this person was quite conceited and arrogant in the art of agency information, and when he arrived in this stone cave, he thought that everything was advocated by him, which was even more arrogant. When he talked eloquently, he saw everyone in the cave as fools, and teased him a lot in his words. This laugh without saying a word is to look at the jokes that everyone scratches their ears and cheeks and is anxious to find out the truth, and even more so that everyone has to ask for him, so that he can fulfill his self-righteous wish. After Situ Qiao laughed, everyone was silent, and no one said anything to ask.

Situ Qiao waited for a long time, and when he saw that no one spoke, he was a little embarrassed, so he had to cough a few times, and then said: "More than ten years ago, I once went to Nanjing, and I heard that the incense of Dabao'en Temple was very prosperous, so I went to see the lively ......."

Before his words fell, he heard Li Qiufeng sneer, and said: "After the completion of the Dabao'en Temple, there are legends in the world, and there are countless gold, silver and jewelry hidden in the temple. The glazed pagoda in the temple is known as the first tower in the world, and it is rumored that there are Buddha bone relics hidden in the tower, which is a priceless treasure. Mr. Situ, when you go to Da Bao En Temple, I'm afraid it's not as simple as just watching the excitement?"

Although Li Qiufeng's words did not make it clear that the purpose of Situ Bridge to Dabao'en Temple was to covet the treasure, everyone also understood what he meant. I only heard Lin Yilang say: "Scholars, even if you steal things, you have to shake your head and find a few reasons, it's really ridiculous, ridiculous!"

Deng Yao snorted, and said viciously: "The villain in the world is like this." Looking at others is all kinds of right and wrong, just looking at himself, but there is no disadvantage at all. ”

Situ Qiao ignored everyone's sarcastic words, and then said: "After entering the Dabao'en Temple, I found that this place really deserves its reputation. I saw that this temple was large-scale, and there was a royal spirit hidden in it. I only walked through the two main halls, and I realized that when this temple was built, I must have asked a very clever warlock to plan the feng shui pattern. The more I walked, the more I was amazed, and I thought that it was really worth the trip to see the famous temples built by the previous feng shui masters. ”

When he said this, Deng Yao sneered and said, "I'm afraid that from the regulations of this temple, I can see that there are heavy treasures, so it's worth it?"

Situ Qiao Zhengse said: "It's always called Hanako, what you said is not bad." This great Bao'en Temple randomly finds a palace, which is a priceless treasure in terms of planning and construction. It was because you said that I saw that there was a treasure hidden, so I thought it was worth the trip, but I was not wrong. ”

Liu Yong saw that Deng Yao was not convinced, and he had to argue with Situ Qiao again, knowing that if the two of them quarreled, they didn't know when they would have to fight. It was he who glanced at Deng Yao, signaled him not to speak, turned his head to Situ Qiao and said, "Mr. Situ, what adventures did you have in that Dabao'en Temple?"
