Chapter 67: Brother and Sister Secrets
"But this matter, the two of us are not capable of interfering at the moment!" Empress Meng listened, closed her eyes and thought for a moment, and said calmly, "Neither King Gaomi nor the Meng clan are stupid, what you can speculate, how can they not be suspicious?
Seeing Meng Guiyu looking at herself, the queen was thoughtful, "You mean...... Sister Shu?"
The Shu sisters have already regarded Rong Sleeping Crane as their heirs, to be precise, they have regarded it as their own reliance in their old age, and they will certainly not allow anyone to stop Rong Sleeping Crane if it is beneficial to them!
Although Empress Meng did not have a good relationship with the two sisters, she didn't need to come to the door in person to report the news, so the first one of the Meng clan would not be able to spare her...... As long as you try to reveal the news to the Shu sisters, it's fine. After all, the two sisters didn't have a lot of cronies in the Wangchun Palace, otherwise why did the Meng family get so many of their own people into the palace to be guards?
Isn't it just that I'm afraid of an oversight, and Queen Meng was killed by the Shu sisters!
"Mi Zhen is shrewd, Sister Shu's side, if we don't talk about it, he will send someone to remind him. Meng Guiyu shook his head when he heard this, "So there's no need for us to do this...... It's my aunt who wants you to come forward to persuade in person!"
Empress Meng was stunned for a moment before she said, "Auntie...... In my aunt's mind, I do have some status, but you should know that this status cannot be compared with the entire Meng family! Otherwise, I would not have lived in the Zheng Guogong Mansion with resentment before, and I even felt relieved to enter the palace to guard the widows. ”
She exhaled, "Do you think this kind of thing is obviously unfavorable to the Meng family, and my aunt is willing to listen to me? If only she didn't reprimand me for turning my elbow outward!"
Meng Guiyu said indifferently: "Let me tell you the truth, my aunt has never been a smart person, and she has been listening to others all her life!"
"No matter how smart my aunt is, I'm not the only one who can get in touch with her at this time!" Empress Meng reminded him, "The Meng clan has always been driven straight to see her! Even if I convince her temporarily, when I turn around and ask the Meng clan when I enter the palace, I won't have to be beaten if I haven't given up all my previous efforts?"
Meng Guiyu looked at her with a speechless gaze for a while, and then said: "We all know that the Shu sisters have regarded Mizhen as their heirs, and these two sisters have asked for something, and our majesty will not allow it...... Why is Mi Zhen still the heir of the Gaomi King and his wife, and has never passed under the knees of the Shu sisters?"
"......" The queen was stunned, and suddenly came to her senses, "You mean them?!"
Meng Guiyu said hesitantly: "The reason why the Shu sisters don't dare to mention it is mainly because they think that although Mi Zhen is the son of King Gaomi, she is not close to King Gaomi, and she is also very strange to King Gaomi's left and right arms, as for our Meng family, we don't want to see him even more!
"But now, Ru Ru is offending, what does that mean?!"
"It means that the army of Northern Xinjiang will be contained, and the Meng clan and King Gaomi's years of hard work in the army will all be stumped!"
"The only thing that can be used at this time is the forces of the DPRK and China!"
"In this way, the pressure on Mizhen can be greatly reduced...... At this time, if the Shu sisters take the opportunity to establish the position of the crown prince for Mizhen, this person's talent is astute, you also know, with the name of righteousness, and there is no threat of military power, who knows if it will soar into the sky, let King Gaomi confront the Meng family for decades, but all of them have made him a stepping stone?!"
Empress Meng pondered for a moment and frowned: "Whether it is King Gaomi or the Meng family, they are all deep-rooted. No matter how powerful Mi Zhen is, he is young in the end, and he is in the East Palace at this time, how sure can he beat them? Not to mention that no matter whether it is King Gaomi or the Meng family, what kind of good thing is it to say something unpleasant? If they are really forced by Mi Zhen to be in a hurry, even if the northern frontier is still in flames, they may not be able to do the thing of opening the door and stealing!"
"You can think of that, but our aunt may not. But Meng Guiyu calmly reminded her, "You just need to pretend to be worried about your future, and go to your aunt twice in three days to say it." And Guihuan is already pregnant, if Mizhen is still in Chang'an when the child is born, do you say that he can not help the Shu sisters to prevent the child from being raised in front of you?!"
"Originally, the Shu sisters were difficult enough, if you add a secret chastity...... The Gaomi King faction will definitely not let go of this opportunity to push the boat and add fuel to the fire, at that time, do you think the Meng clan will not have a headache?"
Meng Guiyu was slow and reasonable, "I let Mizhen go to the western frontier, just when Ruru invaded the territory on a large scale, maybe he also sent some masters or the like to infiltrate the country and assassinate the powerful?"
"Is this a hint to my aunt, let Mi Zhen go to the Western Frontier, and then get off the killer on the road?" Empress Meng nodded and said, "Aunt Meng will not only listen to this, but it is estimated that the Meng family will also consider it after she knows about it." But ......"
She frowned, "What if Mi Zhen really died? And Kang Zhao, she is now Mi Zhen's wife, but she will go to the Western Frontier with Mi Zhen! I told you before, it's okay to calculate Mi Zhen, but Kang Zhao can't move!"
Meng Guiyu said: "You really underestimate Mi Zhen! Do you really think he is a good stubble? Don't say anything else, just say that he brought the Gongsun clan in Chang'an, and the four generations of the family are bandits, it can be said that they came out of the sea of corpses and blood, but they obeyed in front of him, do you think it is just for the sake of the Sheng family's face? If this is the case, this group of people has been in Chang'an for a while, why don't they go to ask the old lady of the Sheng family to say goodbye? Obviously, what really convinced them was not the Sheng family, who had been colluding for a long time, but the person Mi Zhen!"
"I've inquired that the Gongsun clan belongs to a well-known group of pirates in the area of Nanfeng County. This time, I came to Chang'an with Mizhen, but there were only about 200 people, you said that with such a small number of people, you can make such a name in the vast sea?"
"Apparently they still have a large group of people who haven't shown up!"
"I think the Eight Achievements are deliberately done by Mi Zhen, the purpose is to show off his strength after going to Western Xinjiang!"
"To put it mildly, if it weren't for this hole card, I don't think he would have the idea of playing the Western Frontier at all! In the end, His Majesty is over half a hundred years old, and there is not much time left for him. Only silver has no hands, why does he think that he can turn over after going to the Western Frontier?!"
"So Meng wants to kill him after he leaves Chang'an, it's just a dream!"
He sneered, "Not to mention that Mi Zhen has someone in his hands, it's not so easy to kill, even if his hands are not as good as Meng's...... Isn't there a message for us to give him a message?!"
The queen narrowed her eyes: "This kind of thing, the Meng clan won't tell me! If I inquire, it will only arouse their suspicions." ”
As for Meng Guiyu, "They can't guard against you at this time, and they may not tell you, right?"
"Why do they tell me?" Meng Guiyu smiled coldly and said, "Mi Zhen, as the heir favored by the Shu sisters, is quite capable in his own right, how can the Meng family settle down if he doesn't get rid of him? In this case, do you think the Meng clan will send three or five masters?"
He said contemptuously, "They have sent more people, how can we not find clues if we have been the disciples of the Meng clan for so many years?"
He also said, "If you tell your aunt again, while everyone is shocked by the news of Ruru's invasion at this moment, quickly send Mizhen away from Chang'an, he must not have expected that we will attack him at this time, but our hearts are on the north! ”
Empress Meng pondered for a while and said, "I'll go and tell my aunt that it's okay, but it's hard to say whether my aunt will change her mind because she listened to the persuasion of other people in the Meng family." Especially I have a good relationship with Kang Zhao, since she married Mizhen, my aunt has not let me interact with her from time to time, in case my aunt sees any flaws because of this, I am afraid that she will scold me in turn. ”
She was not afraid of being scolded, but she was mainly worried that this plan would not succeed, but it would cause closer supervision from the Meng family.
"You don't have to worry about this, because the Gao family will also help. Meng Guiyu said calmly, "Didn't Gao Chengxuan have to stop before the gold list because he broke his leg and ruined his appearance by Jiayan?
Empress Meng was very disgusted with Gao Chengxuan, after all, she had never gotten along with this nephew at all, so naturally she couldn't talk about feelings; Gao Chengxuan's mother and son had a domineering personality, and her mother Meng Bichen had also come to Wangchun Palace to make trouble, and the queen hated these two blood relatives from the bottom of her heart.
In addition, this nephew once tried in vain to let Sheng Weiqiao be his plaything, and the queen wanted to kill him every time she thought about it.
When he heard the words "Gao Chengxuan" at this moment, he subconsciously frowned, and then said, "What's going on in this house?"
But it was the second uncle's idea. Meng Guiyu said hesitantly, "After all, Gao Chengxuan is the only male heir under the knee of the fifth sister and his wife, the second uncle has always loved the fifth sister, and he also reads the Gao family's years of dedication, so I think that it is not good for Gao Chengxuan to be so sluggish, although the road to the imperial examination has been cut off, isn't there still a military service?"
According to the rules for the election of officials in the national dynasty, there must be no stuttering, no disability, no malignant disease, and no broken appearance. But the generals don't have such a requirement, after all, people fight in front of the battle, life and death are difficult to say, if once the crippled and broken phase will be cut to the people, this military heart can still be used?
"Could it be that the second uncle wants Gao Chengxuan to go to the Western Frontier?" Empress Meng said unexpectedly, "Then the Gao family will still hope that Mi Zhen will go to the Western Xinjiang as soon as possible? They can't wait to see Gao Chengxuan die?!"
Although Gao Chengxuan was at the top of the previous apricot list, and Rong Sleeping Crane only got Yayuan, the queen knew that this was mainly because Gao Chengxuan had the support of the Meng family and Rong Sleeping Crane had not received the support of Gaomi Wangfu at that time.
In terms of real wrists, Gao Chengxuan, a person who has parents to protect himself from the wind and rain, is almost at the same level as Sheng Weiqiao, that is, he is more vicious than Sheng Weiqiao. Let the sleeping crane play him to death, it is estimated that it will not be effortless at all!
"How could he let him go to the Western Xinjiang alone to fight with Mi Zhen? Isn't that a food delivery?" Meng Guiyu said lightly, "It was some time ago, the third brother, over there, heard that Mi Zhen was going to the Western Xinjiang, so he said that he wanted to send his family cadres to the Western Xinjiang army to implicate him. And if Gao Chengxuan went over, the third brother didn't expect him to be able to help the family himself, but hoped that the fifth sister and his wife loved their son and would donate generously because of him. ”
The "family Qian" he said was Meng Boqin's fifth son, who had always been smart and resolute, and was Meng Boqin's favorite son. It's a pity that the ranking is too low, and Meng Boqin's eldest son is not mediocre, so for the sake of family harmony, it is not good to cultivate too much.
This time, Meng Jiaqian was asked to go to the Western Xinjiang Army, saying that it was to involve Rong Sleeping Crane, but in fact, it was also Meng Boqin who gave this son a chance to perform.
"That's like a word!" Empress Meng nodded and frowned, "But the Gao family has so much confidence in Jia Qian? ”
Meng Guiyu snorted: "It's not anything else, the Gao family is mainly interested in the marriage of the county lord of Kangzhao." Do you think that the idea of intercepting and killing Mi Zhen and his party on the road and framing Ru Ru was the one I came up with? But it was the Gao family who tried their best to persuade the second uncle, and after killing Mi Zhen, the county lord of Kangzhao was a pampered and up-and-coming female dependent, and that was not at the mercy of him? After being forcibly abducted to the corner for a year and a half, and having a child, no matter how angry and hateful the Sheng family was, what would they do with the child's biological father?
The queen was stunned, there was a chill in her eyes, and she sneered: "This family is also a famous family in the south of the Yangtze River, I don't want to be so greedy! The pirates of the seven seas still want to reform themselves and go ashore, they are on the shore, this is the heart of the bandits, but it makes the pirates of the seven seas ashamed!"
"People don't think so. Meng Guiyu said, "They think that the reason why the Sheng family has risen is not because they sold stolen goods with the bandits? In the same county, the Feng family and the Xuan Yu family are definitely not clean! Since this is the case, then the dowry of the county lord of Kangzhao is all ill-gotten gains! If you don't take it for nothing, you don't take it for nothing, and you still hope that the sooner you get it, the better!"
"How do you know these things?" the queen asked suspiciously, with a gloomy face.
