"Thank you aunt."
After Song Tangning reached out to take it, she held it in her hand but just held a spoon and stirred the bottom of the bowl. The snow-eared soup was boiled to a thick and smooth snow, but she had no appetite.
Princess Cheng couldn't help asking when she saw her absent-mindedly, "Xiao Yan is seriously injured?"
Song Tangning lowered his eyes and said, "My um, Sister Qin said that the two swords on her waist were light and heavy, and the heavy sword was only half an inch away from being injured. If Brother A had not dodged quickly, he would have... "
Even if she had died once, she would still not be as calm as Xiao Yan.
Princess Cheng saw her eyes slightly red and couldn't help but sigh: "Xiao Yan is in a position that everyone is looking at, let alone that he is an eunuch , which is not as good as the serious court officials who are from Qingliu in the court. In recent years, he has been ruthless and arrogant for His Majesty and has provoked countless people. If he hadn't been really powerful, he would have been harmed by others long ago."
Seeing her face getting whiter, Princess Cheng quickly stopped the words in her mouth: "But fortunately it's okay this time, don't worry too much."
Song Tangning felt no relief when she heard this. She actually knew Xiao Yan's situation. In her previous life when she had never met him, even if she was trapped in that abandoned courtyard without seeing the light of day, his evil reputations were still everywhere.
Who wouldn't scold the "righteous people" in the capital for taking power? Those who claim to be innocent are even more disdainful to join him.
Everyone said that he would not die well, and said that if the emperor lost his protection after he left, he would be dismembered by five horses and exposed to the wilderness.
Song Tangning lowered his eyes and looked at the soup at the bottom of the bowl: "Auntie, do you think my brother is really a treacherous?"
Princess Cheng was stunned for a moment and became silent. After a long time, she whispered: "Are you afraid that Xiao Yan will lose power in the future?"
Song Tangning's face was pale. She had heard her grandfather tell her history, and she also said that most of the treacherous and slandered power in all dynasties ended up in miserable fate.
She was not moved when she heard this, and she felt that the people in the history books had nothing to do with her, but my brother was different. As long as she thought that Xiao Yan might end up with those people, she felt that she was suffocating even her breathing. .
Princess Cheng saw her eyes shining, reached out and patted her: "You must understand, what will happen to Xiao Yan in the future? It has nothing to do with whether he is a treacherous or a treacherous or a t Although countless people died in his hands, there were not many people who died innocently. "
"There has never been right or wrong in the struggle in the court. What he did is what everyone who wants to gain power will do. People scold him just because he is a eunuch and think he is incomplete and does not deserve to stand in the court. The power in his hands is envious, and others will naturally slander him in every way. His existence hinders the interests of others, so those people naturally cannot tolerate him."
Princess Cheng didn't know much about Xiao Yan, but when he was with King Cheng , he would often mention the matters in the court.
King Cheng mentioned that Xiao Yanshi was afraid of his power and he abusive power, but he still looked down on him as a eunuch, so naturally the same was true for other people in the court.
They would not care about what Xiao Yan did, nor would they care about how strong his ability in both civil and military affairs. They just felt that if he had defects, he should be like an ant, snake, and rat, hiding in the dark corner and breathing.
It is his fault that he stands in the sun.
Princess Cheng gently stroked Song Tangning's hair: "Xiao Yanzhi's fault is that he is not the whole person, and those people slander him not because his crime is unforgivable."
"They just want to be honest by slandering others. The more notorious others are, the more fair and honest they will be. If others are going against the trend, they will naturally be orthodox imperial power."
She remembered what happened a long time ago and her voice became a little quieter.
"I don't know if you still remember Prince Li back then, the person involved in the Song family this time. At that time, you were still young and never saw how noisy the capital was when the crown prince was appointed . He was once full of people. The praise of the court was once the destination of everyone. Everyone said that if he could ascend the throne, he would be a wise master, but you will see him as the end."
"They were plotted against the enemy and burned the Forbidden Palace. Hundreds of people in the East Palace all turned into dry bones overnight. After his death, he was also crushed and ashes. It was the sun that fell into the abyss. Now, when everyone mentioned him, he was cruel and cruel. Everyone can punish the traitor who plotted against the rebels, but how many people know the truth back then?"
Song Tangning was ecstatic: "Auntie, did Prince Li plot against him? "
Princess Cheng remembered the young man she had seen in the palace. It was as bright as the sun and the moon, the breeze cleared the books. He loved the people and was vigilant in the court. At the time of the prince, he had already made the Wei Dynasty look like a revival. He could only stand there. It makes people unable to help but obey.
He is already the crown prince at a young age, and as long as he moves forward safely , he will sooner or later.
Conspiracy...
Princess Cheng lowered her eyes and covered her sneeringly: "Who knows."
When the emperor says he is planning to rebel, he is planning to rebel. When the world says he is tyrannical, he can only leave his name tyrannical.
It was just a success and a defeat for the enemy. He was a move that was a loss. He lost the power struggle and died, and no one could justify him.
Xiao Yan, who was originally worried that Song Tangning would come quietly, stood in the corridor long. The faint light beside him hid in the shadows. His cold and white face was outlined with a staggered light and shadow, and he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly.
"Supervisor."
Jinyun was a little worried while carrying the lantern.
He didn't expect Princess Cheng to mention Prince Li to Miss Song , and he didn't expect that they would hear that past event again.
Xiao Yan quietly looked at the silhouettes coming out of the window, as if he had seen the sky-spreading fire again.
The messy screams of horror and thick fog and black smoke were flying all over the sky. He was pushed and fell outside the door by his mother covered in blood. The beam of the room collapsed behind him. The falling burned wood swallowed his mother, the only one left in his ear. The next thing is the hoarse sentence "Living"...
Xiao Yan's fingertips were pale, and he held the ring on his hand hard, and after a while he said to Hang Li, "Precaution them."
Hang Li lowered his eyes : "No."
After Xiao Yan looked at the window regularly , when he closed his eyes for a moment and opened it again, his sword eyes were already cold.
"Supermaster, can you order someone to call Miss Song?"
Xiao Yan nodded his eyes: "No need, let's go."
The people from the outside came quietly and walked silently, and the two of them in the inside didn't know that Xiao Yan had come at all .
Princess Cheng just continued, "The matter was decided back then. No one dared to pursue this matter regardless of whether Prince Li was planning a rebellion. "
"The emperor was able to successfully enter the Eastern Palace after Prince Li was defeated, so he was extremely taboo about this matter. You only see that the Song family was just involved with Prince Li's old man, so they were imprisoned by the whole family, so don't mention this with the outside world. Don't doubt the past when you are in front of others."
"You just need to know that he is a traitor, and everyone in the world knows it. Do you understand?"
