A second ★ of small △ said § net.. Wonderful novels to read for free!
It's just that Meng Guiyu thought it was good, and after a while, Sheng Weiqiao, who was pulled into the corner by Meng Guihuan and listened to Mrs. Xiang's conspiracy, immediately changed her face and said in a panic: "How can Mrs. Xiang doubt us......? ! It's really ......."
Meng Guihuan comforted: "According to my sixth brother's guess, it is estimated that our eldest aunt has taken a fancy to your family's property, and this is to design you to be my starling's concubine!"
took Meng Guiyu's speculation, pinched out the section where Empress Dowager Meng actually wanted to match Meng Guiyu and Sheng Weiqiao, and listened to her in 1510, and sighed at the end, "It's just that my sixth brother went this time, and it happened to be just in time, so I said justice to your family." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoI'm afraid that our aunt won't give up, and after a few days I will talk to our aunt, you also know that our aunt is old, and her energy is not as good as before, and many things are often said by people around her, and my aunt will believe it!
"What kind of precautions do we have?" Sheng Weiqiao's face turned pale, tears rolled vigorously in his eyes, and he hesitated for a long time before he looked up and said to Meng Guihuan, "In any case, the great kindness of the brothers and sisters, our Sheng family has written it down...... I'm in a mess right now, can you let me stay alone?"
Meng Guihuan was very considerate of her current mood, nodded and left, and sighed to herself: "Alas, this Miss Sheng San is really pitiful! I accompanied my brother to Chang'an to take the exam, but because the family was rich, the eldest aunt took a fancy to it, and came up with such a poisonous plan to deal with the Sheng family...... Even if the sixth brother asked me to tell my eldest aunt's suspicions in order to ask for a thank you gift from their brothers and sisters this time, but the gap between the Meng family and the Sheng family's family is so big, what can they do if they know?"
Thinking of this, he was suddenly shocked, "What if they take refuge in King Gaomi?"
But immediately woke up, Meng Guiyu must have considered this possibility, since he still let himself tell Sheng Weiqiao about these things, either it didn't matter if the Sheng family fell to King Gaomi because of this, or he had another backhand, so he didn't have to worry about it.
But she didn't know that Sheng Weiqiao would indeed be a little panicked, but of course she was not panicked because the Sheng family was slandered as the real culprit of Bishui County for no reason, she was worried that Sheng Sleeping Crane would show some flaws in the matter of Bishui County and be discovered by the Meng family!
And this discoverer is none other than Meng Guiyu!
Otherwise, Meng Guiyu has nothing to do with the Sheng family, but is a cousin of Meng Boheng - he has now taken refuge in Mrs. Xiang, to say something unpleasant, since Mrs. Xiang, as the master, has suspected the Sheng family first, Meng Guiyu, a new subordinate, even if he knows that the Sheng family is innocent, should follow Mrs. Xiang to investigate the Sheng family first and behave with Bo!
Anyway, it's not that the Meng family can't afford to offend the Sheng family!
As for Mrs. Xiang plotting against the Sheng family's family property, so she planned to slander the Sheng family and then force Sheng Weiqiao to be Meng Boheng's concubine Yunyun, Sheng Weiqiao didn't believe it at all: after all, she knew that the matter of Bishui County had a lot to do with Sheng Sleeping Crane, and with the relationship between Sheng Sleeping Crane and the Sheng family, how could the Sheng family leave the truth out?
So why bother to go around in a big circle with Mrs. Xiang like this?
"It is estimated that eighty percent of Meng Guiyu found some evidence and hid it!" Sheng Weiqiao speculated, "Huan Yehe said before that the Meng family had a thin family background because of the early arrival of his parents, although Meng Guiyu was sealed with Chongxinbo, he was still worried about the marriage money of his younger brothers and sisters, so much so that he tried his best to save money in private!"
In this way, Meng Guiyu has a reason to disobey his wife's will in person and clear up the relationship with the Sheng family without any friendship with the Sheng family - after all, Meng Guiyu is not outstanding in the Sheng family's seniority, status, age, and power, and is even more in the position of a dependent in front of the big house.
But when Mrs. Xiang had no evidence and was just suspicious of the Sheng family, he took action to protect the Sheng family, and then turned to the Sheng family to ask for benefits...... The huge Sheng family, but he is alone!
Although Sheng Weiqiao only met Meng Guiyu for the first time today, and he didn't know much about the character of this Chongxin uncle, but from the fact that he first voted to Aunt Jiaoyu and relied on Aunt Jiaoyu's words to attach to the Empress Dowager Meng, because Meng 14 was favored by the Empress Dowager Meng, and then abandoned Jiaoyu's mother and son and switched to Mrs. This series of behaviors seems to be so gentle and harmless as it seems on the surface, let alone above board.
This kind of thing of helping first and then blackmailing, he may not be able to do it!
Sheng Weiqiao thought of this, he couldn't help but gasp, and subconsciously clenched his hands, and a deep jealousy flashed in Apricot eyes, "If that's the case, this will be endless trouble!"
Although it is said that with the wealth of the Sheng family, it is not a big deal to give Meng Guiyu's younger brother Meng Guihan, the seventh son of the Meng family, a rich dowry, and then give Meng Guihuan ten miles of red makeup, but Sheng Weiqiao does not believe that Meng Guiyu will stop there.
As the saying goes, people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, Meng Guiyu has the handle of the life and death of the Sheng family, how can he give up if he wants a benefit from the Sheng family?
Even if he didn't dare to let the Sheng family offer all his family property immediately in order to prevent him from being discovered by the Meng family's big house, he would definitely make the Sheng family pay tribute every year from now on - even the sleeping crane who was about to participate in the spring festival would be subject to his control and let him drive him!
The most terrible thing is that Meng Guihuan thought that the Sheng family was in a hurry and could take refuge in King Gaomi, but Sheng Weiqiao couldn't say it: Rong Qing, the second son of King Gaomi, was drunk, and he was also injured in the hands of Sheng Sleeping Crane!
Therefore, if the truth of the matter in Bishui County is exposed, the Sheng family will not be able to find a backer enough to protect them!
"No!" Sheng Weiqiao was desperate, but suddenly thought of the private advice of his mother Feng before leaving, and couldn't help but perk up, muttering to himself, "If you really want to find a backer, there are still some...... It's just that the year of the Son of Heaven has passed half a hundred years...... I wonder how long these two backers can last?"
- Sister Shu!
Although these sisters have not been able to give birth to an imperial heir, they have also been worried about their situation in recent years, but as long as Emperor Xuanjing lives, no one will offend them clearly, including Empress Dowager Meng!
If you can get the support of these two, under the pillow wind, even if the truth of the matter in Bishui County is exposed, you are not afraid that you will not be able to suppress it......
As for how to get the support of the Shu sisters, Feng has specially explained this: just give money!
If you want to say why the Feng family, who has never been to Chang'an, knows about this, the reason is very simple: Feng's maiden family, the Feng family, sent a steward to Chang'an for the marriage of Feng and Sheng Lanci more than ten years ago, and gave gifts to the Shu sisters' maiden family.
Over the years, the Feng family has given the Shu sisters a sum of fat powder money every year.
The Feng family did this, in fact, it was not a specific plan, mainly just in case: compared to the Sheng family, which only rose in the hands of Sheng Lanci in the past 20 years, the Feng family, as a time-honored brand in Nanfeng County, has long been accustomed to this precautionary measure.
So when the steward rushed to Chang'an to inquire about Sheng Lanci's conduct in Chang'an, he rushed to the palace to spread the news that the Son of Heaven personally gave Jin Meiren an abortion pill for the Shu sisters, and the steward didn't say a word, so he prepared a generous gift and went to the Shu family......
At that time, not long after the Shu sisters entered the palace, the Shu family was also just in their early stages, and their vision was not high, so they were immediately impressed by the handwriting of the Feng family steward, and Shu Yao, the father of the Shu sisters, even personally met with the Feng family steward - after receiving the head from here, the Feng family sent gifts to Shu Yao every New Year's holiday, hoping that once something went wrong with the Feng family, the relationship in the county would be uneven, and the Shu sisters would have this road here.
If nothing happens, of course it's best, anyway, with the Feng family's wealth, there is more money spent every year on buying off officials and maintaining contacts, and there is not much money like this.
As for the case that the Shu sisters fall halfway, because the Feng family only gives gifts and does not ask for them, and does not mix with the Shu family's affairs, it will be a big deal to pay a price, and it will not be difficult to withdraw.
This is the embodiment of the old powerful man's scheming and extensive netting, and even a steward has such vision and authority. The Sheng family, an emerging powerhouse, is incomparable to the Feng family in this regard.
Because when the Feng family took Shu Yao's line, the Feng family had not yet left the cabinet to know this secret.
Of course, she is not the kind of person who forgets her mother's family when she marries out of the house, so she has never told her husband's family about this matter.
However, her husband's family is not enough for her to use her mother's resources, and her own daughter Sheng Weiqiao is different, in order to hold the pearl in her hand, Feng's family is willing to give up any hole card - this time Sheng Weiqiao wants to go north with Sheng Sleeping Crane, she not only told Sheng Xiang, the steward of the front station, about this, but also specially told Sheng Weiqiao.
Of course, the Feng family has repeatedly emphasized that although the Feng family has been worshiping the Shu sisters for a long time, they belong to the first group to hug their thighs, so their status is different in front of Shu Yao, but after all, this favor belongs to the Feng family, not the Sheng family, even if the Feng family has always been very fond of Sheng Weiqiao, but this kind of affection involving the fundamental level of the family is not something that one or a few people can send if they say that they can send it, after all, theoretically, this favor that the Feng family has been operating for many years belongs to the entire Feng family.
Therefore, as a last resort, Feng advised his daughter not to use it.
This will Sheng Weiqiao think that if Meng Guiyu really has the truth and evidence of the matter in Bishui County, then it must be a last resort!
However, there is still a problem with this hole card!
"According to Uncle Tu Shi, the Shu sisters deliberately fell to King Gaomi because they were old and childless, if it weren't for Princess Gaomi's opposition, even Rong Qingdrunk would have passed to the knees of the Son of Heaven and become the prince......" Sheng Weiqiao frowned and fell into deep thought, "Of course, this time Rong Qingdrunk went wrong in Bishui County, and it is hard to say whether he can still be the prince - but as long as the Shu sisters and the Gaomi King are still allies, these two sisters are also unreliable!"
Thinking of this, Sheng Weiqiao couldn't help but feel disheartened, could it be that the Sheng family would only be endlessly blackmailed and even enslaved by Meng Guiyu in the future?!
She was in a daze, she didn't even know how the time was in the evening, and how she went to the warm pavilion to pick up Sheng Weiwei and then quit the palace.
It wasn't until half an hour later, when she returned to the house, that the long-awaited Sheng Sleeping Crane looked at her trance-like expression, frowned and asked Gongsun Yingjiang: "What happened to you in the palace?
When Sheng Weiqiao heard his voice, he came to his senses and handed over Sheng Weiwei, who was also looking at him suspiciously, to Gongsun Yingjiang: "Ying Jiang, you take the eighth sister to clean up, and Lu Jin will hand over the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor to the small kitchen, and let them immediately grab the medicine for the eighth sister and boil it...... Brother, let's go to the study and talk!"
