Changan.

Ningwei Hou Mansion, study.

Xu Zijing, who was dressed in a green shirt and leather belt and dressed simply, made a hot tea for the opposite side with his own hands: "My family, please use it!"

"Hou Ye is polite!" In contrast, Gongsun Shu, who is dressed in a brocade robe, looks more like Hou Ye than him, but this is not surprising, the ancestors of the Xu family are very poor, even if Xu Zijing was born, the old Hou Ye Xu has already mixed up in the army, and the family will not eat the last meal and the next meal, and the old lady Xiahou, who is also from a poor family, is thrifty and will never be extravagant and wasteful.

Xu Zijing has never had a luxury at all, and he doesn't have this opportunity in the hands of the Nan family...... After all, the first thing a man is extravagant in these years is to accept a small one.

Therefore, this Ning Weihou usually dresses very ordinary.

However, Gongsun Shu, although he was born recklessly, as a fourth-generation sea lord, since he was born, the degree of exquisite clothing, food, housing and transportation is better than that of ordinary rich families on the shore.

Now that he has an official body, he will not be wronged himself.

Although the two are in-laws, their background and temperament dictate them, so they don't actually go together very much, and they rarely meet.

At this time, they couldn't help but be polite to each other, and then turned to the topic: "Have you seen that kid in your in-laws?

"What else can you say?" Gongsun Shu said when he heard this, "Naturally, he agreed with his mouth full of words, and he also showed his loyalty...... But what he thinks in his heart, we all know very well: he can't wait for the princess of the county and the entourage arranged by the princess of the county not to come to Chang'an, lest what he has done during this time be exposed in front of the prince of the county and cannot be explained!"

"Now we want him to privately mobilize the forbidden army to block the plan of King Gaomi and Old Man Sheng to ask the princess of the county to come to Chang'an...... It's in his arms, I'm afraid it's too late for him to rejoice at this moment!"

Xu Zijing nodded: "What he did in private, let's remember, and we are not afraid of the time when we don't settle the account." In the final analysis, it is now the western and northern Xinjiang that are the focus of the overall trend. ”

Gongsun Shu frowned and said: "It's just that the forbidden army is close to Shanglin Yuan, and the Shu sisters don't know what to think, and during this time, they can simply raise their brothers! If this continues, even if the power of the forbidden army has been in the hands of the hereditary families, sooner or later they will have to stand on their feet! This is not a good thing, right? But you also know that I have been at sea for a few years, and this kind of thing has to be watched by you." ”

His words are not modest, the sea lord listens to the majesty, in the final analysis, it is just a nest of bandits, but Xu Zijing is in charge of the actual 800,000 and claimed to be 1.5 million Northern Xinjiang Army, and his vision and experience are not comparable to him.

"As long as the Meng family doesn't make a move, the brothers Meng Guiyu and Meng Guihan will at most stand in the forbidden army, and they want to wrestle with the few families handed down from the founding of the country, and these two juniors are not qualified. Xu Zijing bowed slightly when he heard this, and said, "There is a big gap between those two brothers and the other three rooms of the Meng family, and they are also afraid that they will be used as a springboard by Zheng Guogong and them again, and after using them to master the forbidden army, they will kick them away, so they will not easily cooperate with the Meng family here." ”

Gongsun Shu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "So, these two people can't make the climate?"

"Not necessarily. Xu Zijing groaned and reminded him, "Have you forgotten your in-laws? These two brothers are not married! The forbidden army is said to still have girls in the boudoir?"

"Marriage?" Gongsun Shu frowned and said, "The forbidden army is such an important place...... Even if Your Majesty is dizzy, you shouldn't let the Meng brothers grow stronger in this way, right?"

Xu Zijing sneered and said, "In-laws, of course a normal son of heaven would not do this." A normal Son of Heaven would not let his relatives enter the forbidden army to take power! The question is, our Majesty ...... Is it normal?"

Thinking of Emperor Xuanjing's willfulness, Gongsun Shu, a sea lord who was accustomed to seeing the shadows, subconsciously twitched the corners of his mouth, and thought for a while: "Since Your Majesty can't count on it, we have to keep an eye on them!"

"Well, but don't think too much about it, after all, we're really overstretched at the moment, and there are several things that are more important than this at the moment. Xu Zijing said, "Anyway, their three uncles and a bunch of cousins shouldn't want to see them too good with those families in charge of the forbidden army...... In fact, Chang'an's overall relationship with Mizhen is not very important, and the most important thing now is to try to ensure that his arrangements in the western and northern Xinjiang are not blocked!"

Gongsun Shu said: "King Gaomi and Old Man Sheng have been sending people to keep an eye on both sides, including the Zhao family, the Yuan family, and the Qi family. However, according to the news sent by the palace, the queen mother passed a handwritten letter to the princess of the county the day after her mother left the palace, and the content of the handwritten letter was roughly to thank the princess of the county for her ventilation and ask about the princess of the county. ”

He paused before continuing, "The queen mother said that she instructed Gao Yiyi to collude with Ruru...... At least Zheng Guogong didn't know about it!"

"I don't know much about Zheng Guogong, but I have heard my daughter Ying Jiang say that this queen is not the kind of person who is good at pretending, and she is very sincere to the princess of the county!"

"So what she said, is it true or false?"

"If it's just out of not wanting the fall of the Meng clan, it's okay to justify his biological father, if it's true...... What's going on?"

"Is there such a thing?" Xu Zijing was stunned when he heard this, his face became serious, he pondered for a while, patted his head, and said with annoyance, "I'm good at fighting, this kind of intrigue...... It's better to write to Mizhen and ask him to go through it himself. As for our side, we will find an opportunity to invite Old Lady Feng to come over and ask him to help with the palm?"

When it came to Old Lady Feng, Gongsun Shu inevitably thought of Old Lady Sheng, so he smiled bitterly: "What do you say is going on with Old Lady Sheng? Why can't you think about it so much, and just want to do things that are happy for relatives and enemies?"

"I can understand this old man's feelings. Xu Zijing sighed and explained, "The in-laws have never been to Northern Xinjiang, but if you have been to Northern Xinjiang and seen Li Shu who was plagued by those beasts, you will know why Old Man Sheng will design their main force at any cost! There are so many people in the court who enjoy the worship of all the people, and they are all more noble and glorious than us, and I don't see them do such a thing?"

Gongsun Shu said: "Alas, these days, who is not here to eat? A person like Old Man Sheng is noble and noble, but for his own flesh and blood, it is a little cruel. Now Mizhen and his wife don't know about it, but once they know in the future...... I don't know what will happen to the princess, but Mizhen ...... Master Hou, you also know that in his early years when he was exiled, he had the handwriting of his relatives, and he didn't mention it, just looking at the fact that he was not close to the palace so far, you know that he has always minded this matter. ”

"Later...... Alas...... Do you want to find a way to hide it?"

Xu Zijing also had a headache: "Mizhen is shrewd, and Old Man Sheng is ruthless, but it's not good to say that this pretend...... Especially Old Lady Feng and Brother Xinzhang have already guessed his actions, and if they want to hide it when they turn around, they must at least convince these two ...... Brother Xinzhang is okay, in the end, he is the biological flesh and blood of Old Man Sheng, and he has always been favored by Old Man Sheng, and he should still be able to talk about it between father and son. However, Old Lady Feng ...... That person's biological daughter, the old lady of the Xuan family, is also in the western Xinjiang!"

"Although I don't know that master, I have also heard that he is a shrewd and powerful person, and now he is short of his family with Old Man Sheng's parents, and he is affectionate like something, who knows what he is thinking in his heart?"

He rubbed his eyebrows and smiled bitterly, "Let's do what happened to me first, as for these, I'll talk about it later...... Anyway, there is the princess of the county, even if Mizhen is angry with the old man Sheng, according to the princess of the county, no matter how sad she is, she will stop it. ”

At this time, both of them were very busy, so at this point, they dispersed.

Xu Zijing personally sent Gongsun Shu to the door, and when he was saying goodbye, someone rushed over to announce: "There is news from the Guangling Palace, Concubine Meng has launched!"

Both of them were awe-inspiring, and they ordered in unison: "Go and investigate again, and report as soon as there is news!"

Not only them, but Chang'an at this time, from the court to Li Shu, are all paying close attention to Concubine Meng's production, and they can't wait for news outside the delivery room.

It's just that Concubine Meng probably caught up with a difficult birth because of her first childbirth!

From the early afternoon, I struggled for a day and a night, and the next morning, I couldn't even shout out my voice, but the child still couldn't be born.

It's just that......

What disappointed Meng and relieved many people was that Concubine Meng gave birth to a daughter.

"The palace said that the little hoof doesn't look like a blessed one, it's really blessed, and he won't even have the opportunity to marry Tanhua to be the main room, and he was confused by his uncles to enter the palace as a side concubine?" Such a big battle, but a girl was born, but I am afraid that up and down Chang'an City, everyone will laugh off their big teeth at this time?"

"This is no blessing, it is no blessing, and no matter how much it is lifted, it is in vain!"

Although Shu Zhaoyi next to her was not as obviously gloating as her, she also pursed her lips and smiled, feeling deeply happy.

But what makes people speechless is that they haven't finished being happy yet, it's been almost an hour, and there is news that Concubine Meng is pregnant with twin sons, and she will give birth again at this time, this time it will be a male fetus!

"How is this possible!?" At this moment, the smiles of the sisters suddenly condensed on their faces, and the concubine said angrily, "There has been no such news before, twins, or dragon and phoenix fetuses, does that mean that there can be had?!, this must be the hands and feet of the Meng family, and the baby boy was sent into the delivery room in advance, in case Concubine Meng couldn't give birth to a son, thinking about the fish-eyed !!"

Not only are they so suspicious, but because Concubine Meng gave birth to a girl, everyone who has fallen from the big stone in their hearts thinks so, and they quickly connect them to try to expose the deception of the Meng clan to confuse the bloodline of the clan!

As the target of everyone, Meng Shi didn't have much mind to deal with this matter at the moment.

In other words, they think that there is something more important to do: after a thorough investigation during this period of time, the mastermind behind the collusion with Ruru who instructed Gao Heyi finally has a clue!

The problem is that this mastermind behind the scenes is really beyond the expectations of the Meng family!
