Chapter 213 Cause of Death of Concubine Jiang
Wang Shang looked over and naturally knew what Jiao Niang was talking about.
Back then, Concubine Jiang, who was born in the Marquis of Jiang'an Mansion and was the emperor's childhood sweetheart, received almost all the emperor's favor. She was doted on in the harem and gave birth to a pair of twins, a dragon and a phoenix. For a time, she was unparalleled and her status was stable.
Unexpectedly, at the time of her great favor, Concubine Jiang died unexpectedly, and even her family, the Marquis of Jiang'an, suffered the wrath of the Holy Emperor.
This is visible to those outside.
In fact, the truth is... the emperor obviously loved his childhood sweetheart Concubine Jiang, but secretly found someone to poison her when she was about to give birth.
At the beginning, the emperor wanted to use the medicine quietly so that Concubine Jiang's child could be lost quietly.
Unexpectedly, the medicine has not taken effect even after using it for more than a month.
The emperor was worried.
He doesn't want to wait any longer and continue to be arrogant and submissive, pretending to be affectionate and loving!
So the chronic poison that was mixed into people's diet every day was increased in dosage and mixed into every aspect of Jiang Fei's daily diet and daily life, even things like incense and nail dyeing were not spared!
On the day when Concubine Jiang gave birth, she even secretly changed the labor-stimulating medicine to a pregnancy-absorbing medicine.
I thought that with one corpse and two lives, everything would be fine.
No matter what happens, postpartum hemorrhagic collapse, even if the child is born alive, will not help.
When a woman gives birth to a child, she is going through hell.
No one can guarantee whether this child will survive after giving birth.
Their Lord naturally thought so too.
As long as Concubine Jiang could not give birth to a child and lost her life due to dystocia, he could not only maintain his affectionate image and let the world sigh about the emperor's affection, but also get rid of serious problems in his confidants. It was simply killing two birds with one stone.
But unfortunately, he had planned everything, except how determined Concubine Jiang was in order to give birth to this child.
Even the imperial doctors almost fixed a death date for people. Even if Hua Tuo was alive, there was no way to bring him back to life.
It can't be saved.
Everyone thought that if Concubine Jiang's life was not saved, the whole family would suffer. They only hoped that the little prince and the little princess could be born smoothly. Even if only one of them could be saved in the end, there would still be a chance. Please. Get a chance.
But they didn't expect that Concubine Jiang would do her best on her own.
Not only did he successfully give birth to the two dragonborns, but he also saved his own life.
Seeing that his plan failed, the emperor had no choice but to reward Sang Jingwan in addition to rewarding everyone in the palace.
He wanted Concubine Jiang to die quietly, preferably madly, to preserve his deep love.
Later, when the little prince and the little princess were about to turn one year old, and everyone in the palace was busy and full of joy preparing a grand first-year banquet for the two heirs of the Tian family, Concubine Jiang committed suicide.
No one knows why Concubine Jiang committed suicide.
Not long ago, the emperor specially issued a decree to announce to the world that he would promote Concubine Jiang to the imperial concubine and take charge of the affairs of the Sixth Palace.
He also specifically told me that he would organize the owner and the prince's first anniversary banquet in a grand manner.
Celebrate with heaven.
He also rewarded the people in the territory with one hundred coins, nine eggs, nine pounds of grain, and one piece of bacon, and rejoiced with all the people in the world.
At the same time, he offered a general amnesty to the whole world and prayed for the princess and the prince.
Such great favor has attracted the envy and jealousy of many people.
Now she is the royal concubine, and she will be the queen in the future!
Everyone knows that the Marquis of Jiang'an is probably going to be promoted to Duke.
At that time, there were countless songs in the streets and alleys, singing the words "I only envy to have girls but not boys".
They all hope that they can have a daughter like Concubine Jiang who can lead the whole family to heaven and become a prosperous person.
During that time, beautiful women from all over the country were sent to the palace much more frequently.
Everyone is envious of this great honor.
I feel that Concubine Jiang has a good life, and the Marquis of Jiang'an has a good life.
While envious, I am also jealous.
Jealous, but also have to follow the flattery to please.
Even on the day when Concubine Jiang committed suicide, the Marquis Jiang's Mansion was still hosting a flower-viewing party, which was very lively for the guests.
When the news came that Concubine Jiang had committed suicide, many people were frightened.
When the future was so bright, why did the favored Concubine Jiang suddenly commit suicide without any warning?
No one can figure out the reason for this.
Except for the emperor who, after learning that Concubine Jiang had committed suicide, was in extreme pain and stayed away from court for three days.
And the person who helped the emperor complete all these calculations was Sang Jingwan.
It can be said that if Sang Jingwan had not chosen to help the emperor do this, the Jin Dynasty would have sealed the title of Marquis of Jiang'an as Duke Cheng En, and then happily sent it to the Marquis of Jiang'an's mansion.
"After Concubine Jiang committed suicide, the Marquis of Jiang'an was greatly neglected and was criticized one after another. Marquis Jiang's father and son were even stripped of their clothes in the street and thrown into prison, and all this was not even a serious crime."< br>
"I don't know how many people were feeling panicked at that time, fearing that they would be the next to be implicated."
"What's more, some people wonder if the emperor is crazy and suddenly acts without any rules and no ethics at all!"
"Totally confusing."
"At the beginning, when the imperial edict was announced to the world that the imperial concubine was to be crowned, the Jianghou Mansion had so many doors that everyone envied, but later on, there were so many people that no one cared about."
"There are even many people who are hiding in the dark to watch the joke, just waiting for the opportunity to add insult to injury and replace it."
Jiao Niang's eyebrows were condensed: "It's a pity that even if everything was done perfectly, in the end, I still couldn't escape the Jiang An Hou Mansion's frantic search for clues."
"Seamless?"
Wang Shang sneered: "How can there be such a thing as perfect in this world? Even if it is true, how could it be known to you and me?"
"The whole thing looks like a seamless and perfect setup. In fact, who knows if all of us are just pawns in the scheme."
"Jianghou Mansion went crazy looking for the truth about Concubine Jiang's murder, so they discovered the clues?"
Wang Shang sneered: "I think it's true, but it may not be true."
"Perhaps this thing was really seamless at the beginning."
"After all, no one has ever suspected that Concubine Jiang's death was caused by something strange."
"At least at that time, no one from the Jianghou Mansion had any doubts."
"Or, Concubine Jiang's suicide and the emperor's rejection, all put together, came so fast and suddenly that the people in the Jiang'an Marquis Mansion had no time to react."
"Concubine Jiang's death is also very reasonable in the eyes of the outside world."
"I encountered dystocia during childbirth, and both mother and child were almost injured, one dead and two dead." "Although I was lucky enough to give birth smoothly later, I really hurt my body, and I will never be the same again."
"Concubine Jiang's appearance was damaged because of this. She couldn't accept this fact in her heart. She went crazy because of this and began to behave differently... All of this was witnessed by the palace people."
"Even the emperor went to court early one day, and his forehead was injured by Concubine Jiang for no reason."
"The Marquis of Jiang'an also knows this. Mrs. Marquis of Jiang'an even went to the palace to enlighten and admonish Concubine Jiang twice, but Concubine Jiang went crazy and beat her up every time."
Wang Shang sneered: "And all of this was seen, heard, and recorded."
"People are even talking about it."
"What do you think this is all about?"
"As the saying goes, family scandals should not be publicized. Is the emperor willing to let others see his family affairs and become the talk of others after dinner?"
"Who dares to be so bold as to talk about the emperor's family affairs?"
"If no one deliberately guided or indulged in this, would you believe it?"
"It's not unusual for Concubine Jiang, who had such a history of crazy behavior, to suddenly commit suicide for unknown reasons."
Wang Shang chuckled a few times: "Even at the beginning, when the people in Jianghou Mansion knew the news, didn't they have no doubts at all?"
"Everyone thought that Concubine Jiang was crazy and did things that were difficult for people to understand."
"Even Marquis Jiang'an, a biological father, once angrily scolded Concubine Jiang for not living up to her expectations and ruining the promising future and century-old foundation of the Marquis Jiang's Mansion."
"So far, no one in the Marquis Jiang's Mansion has suspected that Concubine Jiang's death was caused by something strange."
"Why, just when everything could be hidden with time, Jiang'an Hou Mansion seemed to suddenly be unable to accept the facts and suspected that there was something wrong with Concubine Jiang's death?"
Jiao Niang thought thoughtfully: "So, someone deliberately sent the news to the people of Jiang'an Hou Mansion, making them suspicious?"
"It's obvious."
Wang Shang laughed: "At the beginning, the people in the Jiang'an Hou Mansion were just sorry. Losing Concubine Jiang's power in the palace would have weakened most of the power of the entire Jiang'an Hou Mansion."
"But what they thought most about at that time was how to send another concubine into the palace to continue the glory of the past when Concubine Jiang was there."
"What's more, Concubine Jiang also has a pair of children. If they don't send them to the palace, they will have to ask others to raise their grandchildren."
"The child is still young now. No one has taught him to be close to his uncle since he was a child. How can he be close to the Marquis of Jiang'an when he grows up?"
"What if the person who inherits the great treasure in the future is the son of Concubine Jiang? As the new emperor's uncle's family, but he is not close to the new emperor, let alone favored, wouldn't his position be embarrassing?"
Wang Shang: "But no matter what, at least at that time, the people in the Jiang'an Marquis Mansion never doubted that Jiang Fei's death was caused by something strange. Although they were heartbroken about Concubine Jiang's death, they did not find it unacceptable."
"It wasn't until they suddenly became suspicious and showed that they must find out the truth at all costs, even if they overthrow the imperial power, that many days had passed and the evidence that should be destroyed had already been destroyed. Even if There was some oversight at that time, so much time has passed, and everything should have been cleared up long ago.”
"However, our Lord not only did not let anyone destroy the evidence, but also intentionally or unintentionally led the people in the Jiang'an Marquis Mansion to discover Sang Jingwan's existence."
It was precisely for this reason that when Marquis Jiang An submitted the evidence that Sang Jingwan had murdered his beloved concubine and the emperor's heir to the emperor, Long Yan was furious and wanted to punish the entire Sang family.
Then, the emperor sent someone to personally investigate the cause of Concubine Jiang's death.
In the end, the cause of Jiang Fei was fixed on the difference in the Xiangyun yarn provided by Jiangning Weaving.
It was further implicated that Jiangning Weaving was guilty of negligence, which resulted in the death of Concubine Jiang and the loss of the emperor's heirs.
That Xiangyun murder case involved 9996 lives.
The whole court was in an uproar.
Then the Marquis of Jiang'an was annoyed and disgusted by Long Yan's anger, and was repeatedly criticized.
The Sang family was saved because they had already severed ties with Sang Jingwan.
The person who was really implicated in the crime, and who was convicted and executed together with hundreds of people from Jiangning Weaving, old and young, was actually the Jiang family of Lingnan.
That is, Jiang Anning's real biological father, the descendant of the Jiang family.
Even though the Lingnan Jiang family loudly defended themselves and called out their grievances, it was clear that the Jiang family had long since severed ties with Sang Jingwanen, and even the money-loser had been taken away by her and disappeared. The Jiang family had already remarried and reborn. Got a pair of children.
It has nothing to do with Sang Jingwan at all!
Even if they were to be implicated, they shouldn’t be implicated at all in the Jiang family!
Unfortunately, their defense was destined to be impossible to reach the emperor's ears.
Not to mention that it had reached the emperor's ears, even the Marquis of Jiang'an would not have heard the truth.
After all, it was their people who went to the Jiang family in Lingnan to deliver the decree and supervise the execution on behalf of the angels.
And after completing this mission, his former brother, a good partner and comrade-in-arms who had been on many missions together, committed suicide in front of the emperor.
If it hadn't been for his good friend who told him this incident before he died.
I'm afraid it's possible that no one in this world will know this secret except the unpredictable emperor.
Even Yang Qing, the idiot who instigated the discord between Sang Jingwan and his wife, had no idea that the man who left the Jiang family in Lingnan with Sang Jingwan was not Jiang Anning's real biological father.
After the Jiang family in Lingnan was exterminated, Jiang Wei personally went to Jiang'an County to investigate the truth.
He kept his name anonymously and became the village leader of the little Jiangjia Village.
He stayed there for eight years.
It's a pity that bringing him to Jiang'an County was originally part of the emperor's plan.
How can he really discover the truth?
But it's all in vain.
"But the premise for the success of all this is that the method of silently killing Concubine Jiang has completely disappeared from this world with the death of Sang Jingwan, and no one will know about it anymore."
"Not even the Sang family knows how to do this."
"Otherwise, how could they have survived in this world!"
But now, he suddenly discovered that Jiang Anning could also make spice recipes.
So what did she know?
Is it possible that when Sang Jingwan first came to Beijing, she had already predicted that she would not be able to return home unexpectedly, so she gave this method to Jiang Anning in advance?
Back then, he personally led people and broke into Jiang Anning's home in the name of the Lingnan Jiang family. He searched carefully and destroyed everything that might record this method.
There should be no mistakes or omissions.
But Jiang Anning is good at making spices...
In case, Sang Jingwan's skills were not recorded on any paper or bamboo slips, but were taught to Jiang Ning orally.
