【Fifty-five chapters】The twists and turns of life are pitiful
Before he closed his eyes, he personally wrote an edict to make Ning Nanquan the crown prince and immediately enter the Eastern Palace when the new emperor ascends the throne.
Ning Zheng secretly learned about this and realized that he had ascended the throne and had no hope of inheriting the throne.
At the end of the second year of Jianguang, Emperor Ming left the world, and Ning Xiu, who was firmly in the position of crown prince, inherited the throne and ascended the throne. He immediately demoted the five kings Ning Mi to a remote area on the border, so that he no longer had to return to the capital to report his duties, which was equivalent to exile.
During the years when the prince fought for power with the five kings, Ning Zheng had already figured out the temperament of his brother very clearly. Knowing that he could not tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes, he took the initiative to resign, left the capital, and returned to Poyang and other places with his family.
In the first year of Ning Zheng's return to the fiefdom, he learned that Lu Yu and others had investigated the case of Dou Xunen being killed in the eastern suburbs while Emperor Ming was still alive. He was panicked and sent someone to Chang'an to investigate whether Dou Jue had leaked the news. However, after Dou Jue disappeared, he returned to the old house of Dou's family in Chang'an, he became terminally ill and had unclear consciousness. He could no longer speak, let alone walk. Only then did he relieve his doubts.
But at the same time, he ordered the dead soldiers of the royal palace to silence the mountain people who saw the case in the east suburbs, for fear that one day in the future, Lu Yu, Yue Qi and others would reveal the truth about the incident that year, and even more afraid that Dou Xunen's life experience would be revealed.
Because of this, the people of the world will know his evil deeds of marrying his brother and killing his brother.
In the second year of Yangjia, Ning Zheng, who was far away in the fiefdom of Poyang, had a plan in his mind to silence all those who knew the truth.
During this era, the people of the Great Wei Dynasty had many hunger and disasters.
Ning Zheng submitted a memorial, saying that the treasury void should be filled in time at this time to alleviate this situation. He also proposed a reform strategy known as the "Yangjia Policy" with the new land tax, household tax and conscription policy, and encouraged Emperor An to promote the new strategy.
However, the new plan was too harsh, and the people of the Great Wei Dynasty were in vain. Lu, Lu, Murong, and the four Yue clans jointly opposed the new plan. It was just that the new plan was implemented, and the interests of the ranks and marquises were constantly benefiting. The five marquis who wanted to continue to plunder the people's wealth naturally did not want the four auxiliary ministers headed by the Lu clan to become obstacles to the future, so they regarded the four of them as thorns in their eyes and wanted to get rid of them.
At that time, Deng Guozhong gained the benefits of the Five Marquises and had a grudge against the ancestors of the Yue and Lu families, so he planned with Ning Zheng and used the incompatible situation of the Five Marquises and the four auxiliary ministers to plan the case of Chang Mengjun's rebellion, and together they eliminated the four auxiliary ministers.
Emperor An didn't like the fact that Emperor Ming left too many of his confidants in the court to control the government. Seeing that his younger brother planned this matter with the Five Marquis in private, he was happy to see it happen, and he agreed in his heart.
It is precisely this why the shocking bloody case that was rarely seen in all dynasties in the Wei Dynasty.
A bloody case involved countless gentry, and involved all the honest people who opposed the prince and were in the party of Dou Xunen.
For a moment, the capital city was filled with blood, and there were only a few confidants left by Emperor Ming.
After Lu Yu was imprisoned, in order to keep the truth in the past, he handed a letter to Jiang, who was far away in Linhe and Dou Taijun, who was in Zuo Fengyi, asking them to open the book and silk if they have enough ability to fight Ning Zheng one day.
Jiang Shan didn't know what happened back then, so he naturally followed what Lu Yu said and had never opened the blood letter yet.
Lu Yu did not want Dou Xunen to be involved in this bloody hatred, so he repeatedly asked Dou Taijun and Jiang Shan to keep the truth in mind at the end of the silk letter. If Ning Zheng's son Ning Zhaoyuan or Dou Yueshan, the little son of the Dou family, come to ask for this silk letter in his heart in the future, he must not give the silk letter to them what he asked for.
Jiang Chengjia finished reading this book with tears in her eyes, clenched her fists tightly, and was also very angry.
Only then did she realize how much hatred and grievances Ning Nanyou has carried over the years. Even if she is an outsider like her, she is deeply resentful when she hears the whole truth about the incident back then.
Seeing that his face was a little bleak, Dou Taijun lowered his head and sighed: "What Zhaoyuan has endured over the years has been so heavy. If he knew again, he was not Ning Zheng's biological father, and his biological father was also killed by Ning Zheng, whom he called his father for many years. He would not be able to bear the humiliation he had suffered for many years, and he would be completely trapped in the quagmire and unable to extricate himself."
Jiang Chengjia knew what she meant, but she felt in her heart that neither Master Lu nor Dou nor anyone who knew the truth back then was qualified to conceal Ning Nanyou.
She frowned tightly, lowered her head to think about this, and her heart became more and more panicked.
"A Luo, I told you about this matter today, because I have determined that you are from my Dou family. I also hope that you can take care of Zhaoer more in the future." Dou Taijun carefully held her hands and continued: "I also hope that you can keep this secret and hide it from Zhaoer as long as possible. If Zhaoer finds this matter one day in the future, I hope you will take care of him by his side, so don't let him go astray, and there is no possibility of returning."
Seeing her sincerely begging, Jiang Chengjia hesitated for three moments, and finally nodded and agreed: "A Luo followed the instructions of Grandma."
When Dou Taijun saw her respond, he felt relieved.
She personally told Jiang Chengjia about what happened back then, so that she could press down on this matter with Mrs. Cao to prevent Ning Nanyou from knowing her life experience.
When Jiang Chengjia came out of Fengxi Pavilion, the sky outside had already darkened.
Her face was solemn, her heart was filled with stagnation, and she lost her energy and walked out silently.
Jiang Chengjia felt sorry for the humiliation Ning Nanyou suffered over the years, his tortuous life experience, and even more felt sorry for the reason why Mrs. Cao was truly alienated from him.
Originally, how innocent he was? But he suffered a lot because of his parents' grudges.
Jiang Chengjia became more and more sad. When she walked out of Fengxi Pavilion courtyard, she saw Qianshan and Xiao Cui guarding outside the door waiting for her to come out.
When Qianshan saw her stepping out of the threshold with a pale face, she felt worried and said, "Ah! Girl? What's wrong with you? Why is your face so bad?"
Jiang Chengjia, who learned all the cause and effect, was already a little unstable in the soles of her feet, and was swaying and difficult to support her.
She agreed to Dou Taijun's request, but at this time she didn't know how to face Ning Nanyou again.
Xiao Cui stood on tiptoe, stood beside her, caressed her shaking, and said nervously: "Does the lady feel uncomfortable again?"
Jiang Chengjia felt that his mouth was dry and something was buzzing in his ears. He was immersed in the past and his thoughts were complicated.
Seeing that she was silent, Qianshan and Xiao Cui looked at each other, confused, wondering what was happening in Fengxi Pavilion?
The sun, which once hung high in the sky, set, its extra strong light ejected from the treetops, dyeing the white clouds bloody, and dyeing the green mountains bloody, and everything became so sad.
Since Jiang Chengjia left Fengxi Pavilion, Dou Xunfen, who had been waiting in the front hall for Dou Yueshan to come to meet, could no longer sit still.
There were many people living in this not-so-friendly mansion. The entire commander's office knew that Hou Anping came to find his son, but Dou Yueshan had been with Cao, who was crazy again, and never refused to go to the front hall to meet his father.
Such a scene made everyone talk.
Dou Xunfen gradually couldn't bear the face, his face was dark and was about to leave the command house, but he saw Dou Yueshan slowly dragging to the front hall.
He stopped leaving, looked at the young man in brown standing in front of him casually, and immediately became angry. He came up and asked, "Who gave you the rules? It made your father wait for so long?"
Dou Yueshan's face was deep, but she still followed the etiquette and bowed to him: "My son is accompanying Mrs. Cao. The wife is sick. Aunt Biyun is too busy to get busy alone, so her son stays for a while. Therefore, it's a little late, so she asks her father to sue him."
When he mentioned Cao, Dou Xunfen suddenly became hoarse and didn't know how to blame him anymore.
After a long time, the middle-aged man sighed heavily, "Some words that my father needs to say to you alone. I heard from your great-grandmother that you are not living in this commanding house?"
Dou Yueshan replied: "The fourth courtyard of Zhaoyuan's mansion in the southeast, west and northeast are only allowed to live in more than 30 people. The courtyard is full of female relatives. Since the elder brother and eldest son cannot place his son in the west courtyard, he lives with his servants, so he found a flat house for his son near the commanding office to save it."
Dou Xun saw more and more people gathered in front of the hall. Although he had the energy to work in his hands, he seemed very curious about the conversation between the father and son. He said vigilantly: "Since that's the case, you can take me to your yard for a while, right?"
Dou Yueshan said unhappily: "My son thought that my father must be very tired from the capital to Linhe. He came to pay homage to Grandma today. He sat in the command house for a whole day. He must be tired. Why not return to the inn earlier and have a good rest?"
The young man in a brown silk robe looked light and bowed with his hands, always bent down slightly and was kind.
Dou Xunfen burst into a sense of depression, and his expression was a little ugly: "Zi said, are you driving me away?"
He frowned and said in a bad tone: "Son does not dare. The son and brother Zhaoyuan have already worshiped their ancestors together, and have bloodshed to form alliances, becoming sworn brothers. At this moment, the elder brother is not in the mansion, and Mrs. Cao is sick. The son should serve his own mother like a biological mother and not leave. He is even more worried that his father will be tired from driving day and night, so he thought to let his father go back to the post station to rest first. When Mrs. Cao's condition is stable, he will go to the post station to pay his respects to his father."
Seeing that he was determined to refuse to talk to him about the past, Dou Xunfen felt bad, but he didn't want to force it, so he could only sigh and said, "Since that's the case, you will take good care of Mrs. Cao and wait for you in the post station for your father."
After the words were finished, Dou Yueshan stood aside with her head silently down. Dou Xunfen wanted to say a few more words to him, but when he spoke, the young man bent down to him and said, "My son sends his father out, and be careful when he drives away."
Dou Xunfen raised his breath into his throat and forced himself back, his face not to mention how badly he was. He stared at the child he had neglected to take care of since childhood for a long time, and finally walked away with some sadness.
Dou Yueshan stood in front of the door, staring at Anping Hou's car slowly drove out of the alley, disappearing from her vision, and felt uncomfortable.
