Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Queen's Thoughts

Queen Meng, who was mentioned by her mother's family, was wearing a snow-white face at this time, and she whispered with her heart: "In addition to the Queen Mother's side sending medicinal materials, the Meng family also sent something?"

Chunlai nodded: "The Zhengguo Mansion sent a pair of formed mountain ginseng, and a set of ancient books from the previous dynasty; ”

"They still remember that I love to read books the most, so I like ancient books?" Queen Meng smiled disdainfully, she used to read books but she had no place to vent her anguish in her heart, so she often took the book in her hand and pretended to be pretended to be engrossed, in order to avoid those heartfelt disgusting entertainment, but she didn't expect that until now, those blood relatives still thought that she really liked to read books, and she liked ancient books more?

However, the queen didn't bother to worry about these things with her mother's family, she didn't have any family hopes for the Meng family for a long time, and when she asked about her illness at this time, her mother's reaction was just to speculate: "Although no one came to me to interrogate me about the matter of Sheng Xi before, the third brother's henchman will definitely explain the ins and outs to that side...... Looking at what Meng Shi is doing at this time, is he trying to appease me?"

The world thinks that the reason why the Meng family chose Meng Biyun as the widowed queen of Emperor Xuanjing was because of Zheng Guogong.

In fact, it is even more because of Meng Boqin.

Meng Boqin is far away in northern Xinjiang, although he holds military power, but because he is far away from Chang'an, he is more concerned about the political situation in Chang'an than many of Meng's children who are close to the temple...... After all, no one likes to make wedding clothes for others.

Especially when the Empress Dowager Meng has always been particularly fond of Meng Boqin, who has no mother when she landed, when the Meng family decided to recommend the daughter of the clan to Emperor Xuanjing as the successor, Meng Boqin sent an envoy to rush back and persuade the Empress Dowager to choose Meng Biyun.

The envoy's words were very good: "Mrs. Xiang came from a humble background, and she was despised by the favored concubines of the country, but she has the grace of nurturing and caring for the prince. The prince has been thinking about it for many years, so he begged the queen mother to choose the fourteenth lady, thinking that she would support her wife, so that the prince was far away in northern Xinjiang, and he could rest assured that his stepmother would be at ease. ”

It seems that it is purely for the sake of considering the three of Mrs., mother and son.

Mrs. Xiang was once complacent, feeling that she was not good to Meng Boqin in vain.

But in Meng Biyun's opinion, maybe Meng Boqin does have the idea of pulling their mother and son, but even more so because their mother and son have no backing, and their brother Meng Boheng is also useless.

For example, the guards of Wangchun Palace are not only the commander that Meng Biyun told Gongsun Xi, but also Meng Boqin's personal guards, in fact, several guards are inextricably linked to Meng Boqin.

"Not to mention that Sheng Xi and I are just acting, even if we really get him, I can't resist the third brother. At this moment, Empress Meng pondered, "So it's no wonder that they will give in, after all, the current situation is easier than changing the queen and coaxing me." ”

This is also the reason why she dared to cover for Gongsun Xi, even if there is no Gongsun Xi, the queen plans to make some trouble for her family in the near future and lose her temper.

After all, as far as Empress Meng used to live in the Zhengguo Mansion, if she didn't have any resentment against her mother's family, she would be willing to obey her words...... The Queen Mother may believe that she is such a good child who is sensible and knowledgeable, but the rest of the Meng family will definitely not believe it.

The result of not believing it will inevitably be to keep an eye on her in various ways, in case she does not cooperate at the critical moment to make trouble.

In the end, Queen Meng is only seventeen this year, even in the eyes of Meng Boqin of the same generation, she still belongs to the age of temper tantrums.

Unless the queen is willing to go with the flow and be at the mercy of her mother's family for the rest of her life, it is definitely not okay to be stared at like this all the time. She is in the palace at this time, and it is impossible to get rid of her mother's eyes and ears, and even if it is possible, it is not easy to do so: after all, if she leaves the protection of her mother's family, the Shu sisters will not let her go.

The queen didn't want to completely avoid Meng's gaze, she hoped that Meng's control over her could be relaxed a little, so that she would have room to do anything.

But it is impossible to tell Meng Shi directly about such a request, and if he does, it may make Meng Shi more and more vigilant against her.

Properly venting the resentment of being used as a pawn by her mother's family, and doing some seemingly ridiculous struggles, will make the people who monitor think that they have seen her clearly, and it is best to look down on her a little, so it is easy to slack off...... Of course, is this method useful, it doesn't hurt my mother to beat my little father, I don't love my mother, it can be said that I am very lonely and has grown up to the current Queen Meng, and I don't know the bottom of my heart.

But no matter what, she was unwilling to go on according to her mother's plan after all.

Anyway, in the foreseeable future, she won't end well.

So even if a bad calculation fails, how bad can it be?

"Although Sheng Xi is my life-saving benefactor, he is the confidant of the king of Mizhen County after all, and so is Kang Zhao, how can the husband and wife be more intimate than the boudoir. The queen asked Chunlai a few more words, then waved her away, calmly analyzing her current situation, "These two people can talk and take advantage of the situation, but it is impossible for them to become real allies." I want to fight against the Meng clan, in the final analysis, I can only consider it from the clan. ”

And this choice is actually no choice: she was sent into the palace by her father and brother in law to be a chess piece, and the people from the second and third uncles came to follow her father, even if they had some pity for her, they were not so pitiful that they were willing to disobey Zheng Guogong and Meng Boqin for her!

So apart from Meng Guiyu, a cousin who secretly befriended the fourth room, who else can he find?

"It's definitely not okay to contact Sixth Brother directly. The queen bit her lip and thought secretly, "If you want not to attract attention, especially not to make the Meng family suspicious, you can only take the path of the eleventh sister...... It just so happened that my aunt was angry with the Shu sisters, and I went to ask for peace tomorrow, and by the way, I cared about the eleventh sister, which should make my aunt think that I felt sorry for her and was jealous of the Shu sisters, hoping that the eleventh sister would give birth to a male heir soon and occupy the position of the East Palace?"

When the queen was planning for her future here, in the Gaomi Palace, King Gaomi was also having a headache: "That rebel son actually really attached to the Shu sisters!

"It's better to let the king of the county go to the north to sharpen it. "It was Zhao Yu who spoke, the younger brother of Princess Gaomi, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, the chief examiner of last year's Chunqiu, and the uncle of the three Rong Sleeping Crane brothers.

At this moment, he said gently, "I can not only use the identity of the son-in-law of the Sheng family to talk to those old people in the Northern Xinjiang Army, give a hand to the eldest brother, but also avoid the next whirlpool." ”

"Although he has won the top prize, he is only good at some literary things. King Gaomi immediately objected, "The army is not as good as the science field, where does he understand? Especially his temper is not good, don't go and make trouble for the eldest brother!"

Are you kidding?

He was worried about how to weaken this son's power, how could he let this son go to see his brother-in-law?

My two brothers-in-law, one loves talent, and the other is a bit judged by appearance. Rong Sleeping Crane has both of them, and they are both the best choices, even if there is a refusal to marry Zhao Taocheng, which hurts the Zhao family, and really comes to Zhao Shi, the father of Zhao Taocheng, who knows if Zhao Shi will like him more and more the more he looks at him, and come to a cold release of his former suspicions and teach him? !

Therefore, King Gaomi absolutely refused to let Rong Sleeping Crane go to Northern Xinjiang, and at this moment, seeing that his brother-in-law seemed to want to fight for Rong Sleeping Crane, he hurriedly added, "He went to Northern Xinjiang to know our advantages, how can the Meng side tolerate it? Don't go to Northern Xinjiang at that time, but something happened instead...... The peace and unevenness of these years also vary from person to person, and the matter of Bishui County has only been a few days?"

Zhao Xuan didn't suggest so, and turned to talk about the succession: "The Shu sisters want an heir, just to consider it in the future." But now that we are evenly matched with the Meng family, once He'er is the East Palace, the Meng family will definitely go all out against him, even on our side, because most people are still not familiar with He'er, and they may not be willing to support him wholeheartedly. Therefore, the name of the Crane and the Shu sisters is now determined, which is tantamount to taking the crane as a target! The Shu sisters should understand this truth, so even if they openly told the Queen Mother and His Majesty about this matter, they will not easily let it be confirmed, and they must let the crane have some confidence. ”

"So what does Zhao Shilang mean by supporting the prince of the county as the prince?" The old man on the left hand of King Gaomi had been closing his eyes before, and only when he heard this did he open his eyes, and asked slowly, "I just don't know if other people think the same way?"

There was a sudden silence in the study when I heard this!

Just like what Zhao Xuan just said, although Rong Sleepy Crane is the biological son of King Gaomi, he has only been dissatisfied for a year since he returned, and he is not familiar with most of them, such a county king ascends the throne, what good can they do to those who choose King Gaomi from the dragon's work?

After many years of hard work, nothing came of it...... They weren't noble enough yet.

"Although the king of the county looks really good now, the world is unpredictable. After a short silence, someone came out and said, "For example, now, I was also heroic in the past, otherwise how could I make Duke Huan Li keep his position as the prince......?" To put it mildly, it is rumored that the county king's connivance and favor for the princess of the county is not under the Shu sisters!"

After this person spoke, several people immediately stood up and agreed, all saying that Rong Sleeping Crane was too young, and it was inevitable that he was not qualitative enough to be young, in case it was really Emperor Xuanjing's second, and after ascending the throne, he hugged the county lord of Kangzhao all day long in the harem and dreamed of death without asking about the government, and they sent people to support King Gaomi's banner for the country, wouldn't they be slapped in the face?

However, Zhao Xuan and the others did not speak, and this attitude was obviously nostalgic for Rong Sleeping Crane's qualifications and talents.

King Gaomi watched coldly, and only after everyone who was willing to express their opinions did he speak: "Mi Zhen is out of the line, and Lone does not approve of it." If not for anything else, but for the princess. You all know how sad the princess has been for this child all these years! When she came back, she became someone else's son, how could the princess stand it...... No matter how ignorant the child is, if he doesn't kiss us, blood will be thicker than water after all!"

He set the tone that he would not support Rong Mianhe's accession to the throne, and then said, "But what the third brother said also makes sense: since the Shu sisters have directly mentioned the matter of succession in front of the Queen Mother and His Majesty, Mizhen will stay in Chang'an, it will be too eye-catching, and it is better to send him out of Chang'an temporarily!"

After a pause, King Gaomi said, "I think, let him go to the Western Frontier Army to sharpen his temperance!"
