"Actually, I always knew what you were investigating. The poison in your body, the curse in that girl's body, I knew everything. But I couldn't say anything, I couldn't say anything. Those secrets, I was prepared to rot in my stomach, to be taken to the grave with me, to hell. In the end, I was forgiven completely by a bowl of Meng Po's soup. But why can't you let me go … "
Xiao Minglan was so thin that his two bloodshot eyes protruded out abnormally. Every strand of blood seemed to be silently asking the heavens why they had to play with him like this. But the heavens didn't answer. Only his own voice was like a candle that had burned to the end.
"I've told you about my brother before. Haha, not the one sitting in the imperial court now, but the Crown Prince's brother who died tragically at the hands of Empress Zhou — — Xiao Minglou. I said that because of him, Imperial Father and Empress Zhou's relationship gradually drifted apart, until they became enemies. Actually, I was lying to you … He, ah, was never the mediocre talent and ambitious person that we talked about. On the contrary, as long as you know him, you can't deny a fact — — he was born to be a leader. Benevolence and generosity, wisdom and tenacity. Anyway, all the qualities of a benevolent ruler that you can find in the history books were all gathered in him alone. On the day he came of age, all the civil and military officials in the imperial court praised him from the bottom of their hearts as the light of Da Yue. Our imperial court had waited for two hundred years, and finally, there was hope for the world once again. "
Xiahou Qing didn't expect to hear such a completely different turn of events. He couldn't help but frown, pursing his lips as he continued to listen seriously.
"Even if I hated Empress Zhou to the core, I still couldn't say anything bad about him. Because even to someone like me, a potential competitor for the throne, he still showed his greatest kindness. Ever since I was young, Imperial Father had never hugged me. The only time was him. " Xiao Minglan took a deep breath, crying and laughing, "But in the end, we still betrayed him."
"You all know that he was indeed stabbed to death by Empress Zhou. But actually, Empress Zhou wasn't crazy from the beginning to the end. That woman has been smart all her life. Every step she takes is steady and steady. She has half the world in her hands. How could she go crazy so easily? "
Xiahou Qing instinctively frowned and said, "So the one who is truly crazy is not her, but the former Crown Prince?"
"You guessed right. The one who's crazy is the Crown Prince's brother." Xiao Minglan continued to speak like a log, "At that time, Empress Zhou and the Crown Prince were firmly tied together. Empress Zhou was such a smart woman that no one could do anything to her. In order to break their alliance and snatch the throne from their hands, those people thought of all kinds of ways, but to no avail. Thus, they could only move to the Crown Prince's brother. A bowl of medicinal soup had turned a beam of light into a demon, and from then on, the Great Yue no longer had any hope. The Crown Prince has gone mad. "
"His madness was intermittent, but it wasn't complete. Sometimes he was awake, and sometimes he was possessed. At first, it wasn't serious. Everyone was just amazed at the sudden change in the temperament of the gentle Crown Prince. Later on, it became more and more intense, and his state was out of control. Only then did they realize that it was already too late, and there was no way back. At his craziest, he was so angry that he even dared to raise his sword and rush over to kill my father. When he was sober, he cried bitterly and wanted to commit suicide. "
Someone as sharp as Xiahou Qing immediately thought of that extremely poisonous substance, "Aperture Dissociation Powder?"
Xiao Minglan nodded, "It should be that name. I was too young at that time, so I didn't know. After I became an adult, I had been deliberately avoiding that memory, and never dared to look back. I only knew that no one could cure that poison. The Crown Prince's brother was crippled just like that. My father was so angry that he almost wanted to kill him, but he was stopped by Empress Zhou. Empress Zhou only had one daughter, and she treated the Crown Prince's brother like her own son. She didn't want to give up on him. Thus, the Crown Prince's brother began to claim that he was sick for three months. In fact, it was Empress Zhou who tried everything to get him back. However, it was too late. When Empress Zhou and His Majesty completely fell out, the Crown Prince's brother had also completely lost his mind. Finally, everything couldn't be hidden anymore. "
