Chapter 266: Unjust Case

Chen Afu didn't want to hear it anymore. She didn't want to know too much. It's not good to know too much about other people's secrets, and it's even worse to know too much about the secrets of the mansion. If you don't do it well, your life will be in danger.

She quickly shook her head and said, "No, stop talking. Even your third aunt doesn't know, but it seems to be a shocking secret. I'm still an outsider now, and I don't want to know too much."

Seeing her nervous look, Chu Lingxuan laughed softly and said, "Look, you are scared. The reason why I can tell you this is because the elders have carefully considered and agreed to it, because you are also a party involved. I believe that I You won’t see the wrong person. The elders in the family believe that Master Wuzhi won’t see the wrong person. We all believe in you, so what are you afraid of?”

"Am I the person involved?" Chen Afu was a little surprised. She hadn't married into the Chu family yet, so how could she be so deeply involved. Said, "Then you say it and I listen."

Chu Lingxuan pondered for a moment, his face became serious, and he held her hand tighter, so tight that it hurt a little, and she frowned slightly. He was not aware of it and whispered, "Afu, there was once a person I admired the most in this world."

"Huh?" Chen Afu was a little confused. Admiration should be higher than words such as worship, respect and respect. This topic seems inappropriate for this occasion. She raised her head and asked, "The person you admire most is your grandfather?" Seeing him shaking his head, she asked again, "Is that your third uncle?"

"No, my grandfather and my third uncle are the people I respect the most." Chu Lingxuan said.

"That must be the emperor." Chen Afu said again. She felt that most people in ancient times worshiped the emperor.

Chu Lingxuan shook his head and said, "No, the emperor is the one I want to be filial and loyal to."

"Who is that? It can't be your father-in-law, right?" Chen Afu said in surprise. She remembered that he complained a lot about his father-in-law.

Chu Lingxuan still shook his head and said, "No, it's not him. The person I admire the most is also the person my grandfather, my father, my third uncle, and many soldiers and soldiers admire the most. He was the person who was the most respected person decades ago. The God of War——Master Yuan, Marshal Yuan.”

Chen Afu was stunned. Does such a tall and great man have anything to do with him? She shook her head and said that she had never heard of it and did not know that there was such a great man in history.

Chu Lingxuan sighed, his voice became hoarse, and continued, "Twenty-seven years ago, when the late emperor was still there, a huge injustice was committed in our court. Marshal Yuan, who led the troops like a god, was leading his troops in The border war was fought with the Northern Liao Kingdom, but they suffered a huge defeat. Several cities were lost inexplicably, and all the food and grass were burned by the enemy. Most of the soldiers were killed or injured. The late emperor listened to the peace faction and signed an armistice agreement to pay compensation. He bought millions of taels of silver, countless pigs and sheep. After Mr. Yuan returned to Beijing, he was arrested and accused of betraying the country. All three members of the Yuan family were killed, including the women and children. Mr. Yuan was sentenced to beheaded. Sentenced to death by three hundred stabs, he shattered his steel teeth without even making a roar."

Chu Lingxuan couldn't hide the sadness in his eyes. He glanced at her and said specifically, "Master Yuan was the father of the then Crown Princess, and the Crown Prince is the current emperor."

That dog emperor is so cruel!

Chen Afu looked at Chu Lingxuan in surprise and said, "Since Mr. Yuan is the God of War and the father of the Crown Princess, it is impossible for him to betray the country."

Chu Lingxuan said without hesitation, "Of course he cannot betray the country. Even if others have betrayed the country, Mr. Yuan cannot betray the country! In his life, he led four expeditions, opened up a strong territory for Dashun, resisted foreign invaders, and was invincible. , Let the enemy be frightened by the news. How can he judge the country? He was framed by a traitor. "

Due to excitement, Chu Lingxuan's voice became louder unconsciously, and at the end of the sentence, he even started coughing.

Chen Afu couldn't help but be in awe of Master Yuan. She said, "Since Mr. Yuan is so loyal and loyal, he has made great contributions to the Dashun Dynasty. Even if someone is framed, the late emperor should not believe it or investigate it clearly. What's more, he ruthlessly wiped out all their families and sentenced Yuan Your Excellency, that... punishment.”

She didn't even dare to say the word "cut", it was too cruel and cruel.

Chu Lingxuan said, "When the late emperor was young, he was still very wise and managed Dashun so that the country and the people were peaceful. But when he got older, he began to be suspicious and suspicious. He always felt that someone was going to rebel and plot to take over the Li family. At that time, , the late emperor's health was already very bad, he killed all the Yuan family members, one of them may have really believed in Master Yuan's judgment of the country, and wanted to replace him with the Li family. Another reason was just in case, regardless of whether Master Yuan judged the country or not. , Master Yuan must be killed to prevent Master Yuan from becoming the head of the country and becoming more powerful, causing the Li dynasty to be destroyed."

Dog Emperor! Chen Afu cursed in his heart. He said, "Since the late emperor was afraid that Mr. Yuan would become the head of the country and have all the power over the world, he should not let the daughter of the Yuan family become the princess. He has the final say on the prince's daughter-in-law."

Chu Lingxuan sighed, "When the current emperor was still a young prince, he fell in love with the former prince at first sight. The late emperor loved him very much, and after repeated requests from the prince, he decreed the marriage. It is said that Mr. Yuan was not very good at first. I wanted to postpone it because the princess had a hidden illness, so that a girl from the clan could be the prince's nanny. But at that time, the princess also had a secret love for the prince, and she wanted to marry him, but she would not marry him. Your Excellency had no choice but to grant the Crown Princess's wish. After Lord Yuan was killed, the Crown Princess felt that she had harmed the Yuan family and committed suicide..."

Half a year later, the late emperor passed away. With the strong support of Queen Wang's natal family and Concubine Zhou's natal family, the current emperor successfully inherited the throne.

The first thing the emperor did when he ascended the throne was to have someone thoroughly investigate the "Yuan family's treason case." In the end, it was found that the emperor's younger brother, the rebel king Li Shi, joined forces with the Northern Liao Kingdom in order to seize the throne and framed Mr. Yuan for treason. I thought I could bring down the prince together, but I didn't expect that the late emperor would just wipe out the entire Yuan family and still pass the throne to the prince. Even if there was a coup later, the emperor was not brought down.

The emperor rehabilitated Mr. Yuan and named the former crown princess as Empress Yuan, and the crown princess's biological son, the emperor's eldest son, as the crown prince. But the crown prince fell into the water and died just two days after he was named. He was only seven years old that year. People thought that at this point, the last bit of the Yuan family was gone in this world.

After Chu Lingxuan finished speaking, his eyes were red and his expression was solemn.

Chen Afu was very sad. This was also the case in the history of his previous life. Most national heroes did not have a good ending.

How unfair God is!

They were given the mission to save the common people, but they were not allowed to have a good end, and even their families were not spared.

However, the Yuan family that disappeared more than 20 years ago has nothing to do with her, Chen Afu, right?
