Chapter 65: Marriage

Ruru's attack was very sudden!

So much so that the whole court was caught off guard.

The most terrible thing is that in just a few days, the news spread all over the country, and the whole country was in an uproar, and the spearhead was directly pointed at the powerful King Gaomi and the Meng family.

The person who said that King Gaomi was the culprit thought so: "If it weren't for the fact that this traitorous king was ambitious, disrespectful to the Son of Heaven, and unfilial to the Queen Mother, he still coveted the throne, made friends and formed a party, and made the court and the court miserable, and even put his hand into the Northern Xinjiang Army, and tossed the elite of the dynasty that General Zhou Da had devoted half of his life to into a waste that was lax in security and was reported to Chang'an by Ruru in three cities!" As early as the time of His Majesty Emperor Muzong, the father of the first emperor, these alien races had the idea of never suffering in the future, why did they delay until now, not only failed to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, but instead taught them to invade the dynasty in turn?!"

People who think that the Meng family is the source of the disaster proclaimed: "Since ancient times, it is not the luck of the country that the relatives have sat down! The Meng family was originally humble and thanks to the royal family's grace, he has today, but he does not think of being loyal and filial to the country, but instead has thoughts that should not be raised all the time, and he is really a wolf with ambition and ingratitude!" Now that the northern Xinjiang has been attacked, there is no news that the three cities have been lost in a row to arrive in Chang'an, it must be this villain who sees that the Son of Heaven has no children under his knees, and the queen who was only sent to the palace last year has not been favored, and he is worried that his brother will end up with his brother, and after King Gao Mixian practices Zuo, he will settle the crime with them, intending to lure the wolf into the house, and take the chestnut in the fire!"

The two sides insist on their own words, from the countryside to the market, and the dispute is inextricable, even in the officialdom, and there are often discussions in private.

It didn't take long for a popular uprising in Jiannan and Gyeonggi!

Although it is said that because of the small scale and the timely response of the government, it was quickly pacified, but the Great Mu Dynasty, which has been prosperous and peaceful for many years, has also clearly revealed the disadvantages of the Son of Heaven who has been addicted to wine for many years and ignores things: when there is no major event, it is okay, but when there is a major event, it is inevitable that people's hearts will fluctuate and gangs will fight.

"This group of misguided thieves !!" This kind of big event Sheng Weiqiao couldn't interject, and Rong Sleepy Crane, who was not idle, was busy with it, she stayed alone in the county king's mansion for a long time and was bored, so she went back to the Sheng Mansion to visit, and just heard the old lady Sheng and the old marquis Xu scolding on the table, "When are you still taking care of the infighting, infighting, infighting, and infighting! I'm not afraid that Ruru will come to Chang'an all the way and take them and their wives and children into slave!!ry."

"Maybe the rumors are true?" Old Marquis Xu said hesitantly, "The reason why Ru Ru was able to connect the three cities so quickly is because the dynasty has their internal response! After all, King Gaomi and the Meng Clan have been evenly matched for so many years, and they have never been able to help each other, who knows if any of them want to find Ru Ru as a helper?"

He sneered again and again, "I just don't know if it's the Meng clan who is mad, or the Gaomi king thief shouting to catch the thief?"

Old lady Sheng said coldly: "These two are not good things, and they still don't forget to intrigue when the national disaster is over, maybe it's the same!?"

Sheng Weiqiao saw this atmosphere, so he didn't come forward to disturb, but went directly to see Mrs. Ming and Xuanyu Feng.

Mrs. Ming shed tears when she saw her, and Sheng Weiqiao, who was frightened, thought something was wrong, but it turned out to be for Sheng Weirao's matter: "That kid heard the urgent report from the border pass, and rushed back to Northern Xinjiang overnight, so it can be seen that if nothing else, this righteousness is no problem." However...... What are you going to do?"

Sheng Weiqiao was surprised: "Have you already promised him and the fourth sister?"

The news of Ruru's invasion arrived on the night of the Chongwu Festival, since Zang Wanzhou rushed to the north that night, it is said that he and Sheng Weirao's matter was too late to finalize, right?

The old lady originally planned to slow down, but Rao'er insisted that she took a fancy to that kid's bloodiness, like Old Man Sheng back then, and felt that even if there were any changes in the future, she would admit it even if there were any changes in the future. Xuan Yu Feng's breathless Mrs. Ming, who was crying on the side, explained, "Old Man Sheng listened to it and liked it, so he specially taught someone to take an embroidered handkerchief made by Rao'er, and asked someone to chase the kid to exchange tokens." ”

Mrs. Ming couldn't resist the common opinion of the ancestors and grandchildren, thinking about Ruru's invasion, it was when the Northern Xinjiang Army threw its head and spilled blood, who knows if that kid will never return?

This eyebone is set on Sheng Weirao's marriage with Zang Wanzhou, isn't it a pit for his granddaughter?

In the old lady's opinion, if Zang Wanzhou simply died in the northern Xinjiang, the result would be better, at least Sheng Weirao could continue to find someone else even if he had a reputation such as a kefu;

If you don't get married, you will definitely be discussed, and if you marry hard, how can you live a good life?

So I couldn't help but cry when I thought of this thing in the past two days, the reason why Xuan Yu Feng was in front of her at this moment was also because Sheng Weirao came to persuade her, I didn't want to open my mouth yet, Sheng Weiqiao came.

Xuan Yu Feng explained to his niece at this time, and then explained to the old lady: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, Rao'er's child is a stable and sensible person, where do you need to worry so much? Since she has identified Zang Wanzhou, she obviously has her reasons." Besides, what Old Man Sheng said is also very right: It is precisely because of Zang Wanzhou's unpredictable future on this trip that the Sheng family has decided on his marriage with Rao'er at this time, and if he comes back well in the future, do you say that he can not miss this sentiment and be doubly good to Rao'er? Since ancient times, it is easy to add flowers to the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow! Zang Wanzhou lost his parents at a young age, and was deceived into marriage by the Yue family, and he stumbled to this day, he must have been full of cold and warmth, and the righteousness shown by the Sheng family at this critical juncture can move him the most, isn't it?

Mrs. Ming wiped her tears and said, "Why don't I want him to be good now?" As long as he comes back to marry Rao'er, he will be good to Rao'er in the future, even if God asks me to die for him, I will be willing...... But the sword in front of the battle has no eyes......"

"Old lady, you really care about it. Xuan Yu Feng said with a smile, "You don't want to know who introduced this Zang Wanzhou to our Rao'er? It was Qiao Er's sister-in-law, Gaomi Wang's wife, who made a matchmaker!"

"How did the princess know about Zang Wanzhou? Because Zang Wanzhou is the old department of her eldest brother!"

"And what is the identity of the eldest brother of the world's wife?"

"He is one of General Huaihua's right-hand men!"

"In this way, for the sake of the relationship between the princess and Qiao Er, can the eldest brother of the family take care of Zang Wanzhou?

"Although it is said that the sword has no eyes in front of the battle, but throughout the ages, thousands of soldiers have died in battle, and there are so many generals who have really died on the battlefield?"

"So if there is no accident, this Zang Wanzhou will definitely be fine!"

"You, just relax!"

What she said was reasonable, not only Sheng Weiqiao nodded beside her, but the old lady Ming, who was full of anxiety, smashed her mouth, and hesitated to believe it, so she asked Sheng Weiqiao: "Is there something wrong with you coming back?"

"Can't you come back if you're fine?" Sheng Weiqiao said with a smile, "Mi Zhen has been very busy these two days, and I'm bored in the mansion alone, so I just came over to see a few of you!"

Mrs. Ming said with concern: "You have just gotten married, even if you don't live with your in-laws and concubines, how can you be boring? Not to mention anything else, everything in your house has been sorted out? The marriage shop Zhuangzi Tian or something, but they have all been interrogated and given them authority? Even if these stewards sent by your father and mother help keep an eye on them, don't run to your mother's house when you are free!"

She said earnestly, "My mother's family is your blood relatives, and no one will blame you for being lazy." But when your father-in-law and mother-in-law are in front of you, you have to go to ask for peace often! And your sister-in-law should also move around more! When you go to the palace, remember not to be as casual as at home, even if they tell you so, just listen to it! How can your mother-in-law's family compare well with your mother's family? You must pretend to be diligent, humble, sensible, and filial, so that you can please your mother-in-law's family!"

Sheng Weiqiao knew that she was embarrassed, but she was still a little crying and laughing, and reminded: "Grandmother, have you forgotten? Mizhen himself is not close to the palace, if I often run to the palace, not to mention that my sister-in-law Zhuyu is in front, can I get into the eyes of my mother-in-law if I have the ability to please the elders these few times;

"This ......" Old Madam Ming realized her previous experience as a daughter-in-law, Sheng Weiqiao's granddaughter may not be able to use it, but after thinking about it, she said, "Mizhen can't do this, isn't he spoiling you? Such a wonderful child has been exiled for fifteen years, it really makes me worry for her just thinking about it......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xuan Yu Feng: "Don't!"

She told Sheng Weiqiao in a straight face, "You must not interfere in the relationship between Mizhen and the palace! If he is estranged from there, you will go to the palace less; if he is intimate with that side, you should be more diligent! After all, the person who is outcast is him, not you, and he is a deep person, and he is unwilling to easily show his true thoughts!"

"So how deep his heart knot is on the palace side, we can't be sure!"

"Don't be a good person, but it will ruin the relationship between you and him. ”

"Further......"

Xuan Yu Feng sneered slightly, "He is only busy with business at this time, and he is lacking in skills, this is because he has a bad relationship with the palace, and he doesn't go to his parents and brother and sister-in-law to walk around at all! If he wants to get along with the palace, he will go to the prince and the princess all day long to ask for warmth, and he will have to cultivate a relationship with the prince and his wife, and even personally instruct his nephew in his homework or something...... How much time and energy do you have left for you?!"

As she spoke, she turned to Old Madam Ming, not very happy, but probably to give face to Feng's mother and daughter, and her tone of voice was still gentle, "Old Madam, I know that you really love Qiao Er, so I will mention her words." But after all, the palace is a high-ranking family, and unlike people in the county like us, it is in the way of being daughters-in-law for them, and it can't be compared with being daughters-in-law in ordinary people, isn't it?"

Old Madam Ming thought that she was good for Sheng Wei Qiao, but she didn't know that she had a bad idea when she was analyzed by Yu Feng, so she was very embarrassed, and said in a loud voice: "Qiao'er still listens to your aunt, listen to your aunt!"

Sheng Weiqiao actually did according to Xuanyu Feng's instructions, and decided on the attitude of Gaomi Wangfu and the attitude of Rong Sleeping Crane, which was already before leaving the cabinet, Sheng Lanci and his wife repeatedly mentioned that she would never do anything to lift a stone and shoot herself in the foot, but at this moment she still said to Mrs. Ming: "Actually, what my grandmother said also makes sense, after all, everyone knows that my mother-in-law has always doted on Mizhen, and Mizhen doesn't often visit her at this time, and she can also say that she is busy with government affairs and can't spare time." I am idle at home all day but do not go to the palace to fulfill my filial piety on behalf of Mizhen, and everyone will definitely talk about me in private. No matter what, this face work still has to be done. ”

But even so, Mrs. Ming felt very bored, and reluctantly said a few more words to their aunt, which implied that they were tired and asked them to find another place.

Xuan Yu Feng took Sheng Weiqiao out of the door, and while walking towards the courtyard where he lived, he explained to Sheng Weiqiao the old lady: "Your grandmother's heart is not bad, but with her brain, it can't be bad if she thinks badly." ”

This is a bit ridiculous, Sheng Weiqiao was about to remind her euphemistically that Mrs. Ming is her grandmother, and she is also a generation higher than Xuan Yu Feng, but Xuan Yu Feng is a little emotional, "However, it is probably a fool who has a stupid fortune, her life is not bad, although your grandfather is not as respectful to her as your grandmother, but he has never had two hearts." And your father and mother are not mean people, so it's a good thing that she is stupid, otherwise she is too shrewd, and she may not be able to get along with your grandfather and father. ”

"But your grandmother really had a hard life, and she didn't enjoy a single day of happiness, so she went. ”

Sheng Weiqiao felt that her aunt might not have felt sorry for Mrs. Ai when she said this, but also because of her self-inflicted injury.

She thought about it carefully, it was true that her uncle's death day was approaching, and Xuan Yu Feng hated this husband to the core, if she was in Nanfeng County on this day, she would definitely ask the cook to cook a big table of dishes, and wear red and green to celebrate.

This situation seems to be unforgiving, but in fact it is a struggle that is difficult to break with the past.

"Auntie, you said that there is such a big thing in Northern Xinjiang, should we go to Western Xinjiang next?" Sheng Weiqiao sighed in his heart, and he couldn't say anything, so he changed the topic, "Mizhen has been too busy in the past two days, and I don't have time to ask him." ”

When Xuan Yu Feng heard this, he frowned, and he was also embarrassed: "The things in the back house and business, you can just ask me." This is a major event in the court, I am a woman, and I have never been in Chang'an before, but how do I know?"

Sheng Weiqiao was about to speak, when a little maid suddenly ran past not far away, and when he caught a glimpse of them, he stopped: "Old Madam Feng, county lord: There is an injured person at the door, saying that it is the cousin of the county lord!"
