Chapter 1803 Return of the Dead 1

Her original name is Lu Anran, the daughter of a Hanlin scholar.

Lu Hanlin was working as a minor official in the fifth rank of the Hanlin Academy. Based on Lu Hanlin's pedantic and tactless personality, the possibility of promotion was estimated to be very small.

Originally, it would be good for a daughter of such a family to marry the son of a well-matched fifth-grade official. But on this day, an unexpected blessing came from heaven. Since the new emperor was eighteen years old and was about to become a queen, this candidate was chosen. original body.

Of course, this specific reason was not told by these maids and mothers-in-law. The original person attended the flower banquet and was favored by the new emperor. If the original person had not experienced life and death, she would not understand it.

But it was said that the previous emperor died young and left behind his eldest son, who was born to his original wife, the queen, who is now the new emperor.

Because the new emperor was too young, only ten years old at the time, he was naturally unable to manage the government. Therefore, the late emperor made his only concubine, King Jing, the regent to help temporarily manage the government affairs. He planned to wait for the new emperor to be twenty years old before the regent returned. politics.

Among them was the late emperor's successor, the 20-year-old Empress Dowager Zhou, who listened behind the curtain.

Empress Dowager Zhou comes from a big family and has family support. Because of her beauty, many men like her and she has a group of supporters, including the regent. There are many rumors inside and outside the palace. Everyone knows that Empress Dowager Zhou is closely related to the regent. The king has a leg.

Soon, the Queen Mother Zhou died unexpectedly, and the regent assisted the new emperor alone and established the new emperor as queen.

Then, the regent fell in love with a newly arrived daughter of a minor official in Beijing and married her as the princess.

Soon, the new emperor will be twenty years old and it will be time to return to power.

But the regent refused to return it. Not only did he not return it, he also forced the palace and asked the new emperor to write an abdication edict.

In the end, the regent became the emperor, and the new emperor became the deposed emperor. He was soon poisoned to death, and the original person was also poisoned to death at the same time.

Only then did the original person know that the Empress Dowager Zhou did not really die, but was reborn in the daughter of a small official. She worked step by step to find out the truth about her death, and at the same time, with the help of her supporters, she Various JPs (from Queen Mother Zhou's own opinion, may not really be JPs), slapped all kinds of rubbish in the face who looked down on her, and finally succeeded in ascending to the throne.

The regent had long been plotting for the throne, and the reason why he gave the new emperor a successor was because his natal family had no power and was not one of his own, so it would be easier to deal with in the future.

As for the Queen Mother Zhou's reincarnation after her death, the Prince Regent was the happiest. After all, if the Queen Mother Zhou had not died, how could he, a younger brother, marry his elder brother's wife? Now it's fine, she has been reincarnated, her soul is still there, but her body is no longer there. He could marry her openly, and there would be a good harvest of beauties. How could the regent be unhappy?

The Empress Dowager Zhou was naturally even happier because she could go from being a childless widow to having a husband and children, and being the supreme queen.

They finally got what they wanted, but as for those who were killed by them... Political struggle is so cruel. Those who were not killed by them were victims of political struggle, and they would not feel any guilt.

When An Ran saw this, she couldn't help but be speechless, thinking that she had entered a Mary Sue world. In fact, this mission should be called "Everyone Loves the Queen Mother Zhou" or "The Civil and Military Men of the All Dynasties Fall in Love with Me".

But there was nothing to worry about. What she needed to worry about was that she had already been given a marriage when she came. In other words, she and the new emperor were tied to a chariot. If the new emperor died, she would not want to live. , although she can practice martial arts and run away when the time comes, the mission of the original body is to let her take revenge. Not only will the regent not be able to become the emperor, but the regent, Queen Mother Zhou and other people who have harmed the original body and the new emperor will also be killed. , all get the end they deserve.

This task is not easy. You must know that the regent has already made plans, and the new emperor is a puppet. He has no one, no power, and no power. How can he fight with the regent and the Queen Mother Zhou?

More importantly, it had only been a few years since the regent launched the coup. It was a hell-like difficulty for the new emperor to get rid of the status quo, gain real power, and then deal with the regent in such a short period of time.

So despite everyone congratulating her on becoming the queen, in fact, the Lu family has already stepped into the grave with one foot. I don’t know what grudge the regent has against the Lu family, so why should the Lu family be selected as cannon fodder in the future? .

However, no matter how difficult it is, she will definitely not let the Prince Regent and the Queen Mother Zhou succeed, both from the perspective of the task and from the perspective of her own unwillingness to be killed.

"Second sister, congratulations on being chosen as the queen by the Tian family."

"Thanks."

After sorting out her memories, An Ran said this when her cousin Lu Sanniang came to congratulate her.

Originally from the Lu family, a middle-class family in the capital, it was considered a scholarly family. His father was a noble Hanlin bachelor in the Hanlin Academy, and his cousin Lu Sanniang's father was also a fifth-rank official in Shuntian Mansion in the capital.

These fifth-grade officials are considered very good in other places, but in Beijing, where high-ranking officials are everywhere, they can really only be regarded as minor officials.

Although he is a minor official, he is a double Jinshi in one discipline, which is not bad. It is much better than the descendants of those descendants of the family who have not made progress and only rely on the shadow of their ancestors to live their lives.

However, although the Lu family is better than those fallen nobles, at least they are officials with real power, but like those fallen nobles, they are also very poor. After all, life in the capital requires money everywhere, and if you are too frugal, you will Being laughed at by others, if you have to maintain your dignity and not be corrupt, you will easily have a hard time.

This is what the Lu family is like.

Although they have some status, the money is really not enough, because the Lu family has not done anything illegal or criminal. This is also the case in the future. When the regent, the Queen Mother Zhou and others find reasons to behead the entire Lu family, they can only think that they are the wives of the new emperor. He killed them, but he couldn't come up with a more suitable reason for the killing because there was no evidence that the Lu family had committed a crime.

In fact, killing the Lu family on the grounds of the new emperor's wife clan is easy to be criticized. After all, you can force the palace to seize the throne. If you succeed, you will not spare the deposed emperor's wife clan. It is a bit vicious. Yes Unfavorable to reputation.

However, because the regent wanted to avenge his beloved wife, the Queen Mother Zhou, he killed the entire Lu family regardless of the harm to his reputation.

Yes, not only was the original body poisoned to death by the male and female protagonists, but the Lu family was also slaughtered in the original world. Otherwise, how can we say that the Lu family has one foot in the grave.

Why the regent wanted to avenge the Queen Mother Zhou will be discussed later. I will only talk about the present moment. Because An Ran was granted a marriage, the Lu family's status in the capital instantly rose.

Although many people know that the real person in power is the regent, and the new emperor is just a puppet and an illusion. Even if the Lu family gets the marriage, they don’t know what will happen in the future, but not everyone is betting on it. When it comes to the regent, some people also focus on the new emperor. They feel that even if the new emperor is a puppet and an empty one, the regent should not be able to carry out a coup. At most, he will always treat the new emperor as a puppet. He holds real power.

In this way, although the new emperor is a puppet, the empress's natal family still has the honors that it deserves. In this case, naturally some people are holding the Lu family hostage, hoping to get benefits from the Lu family in the future.
