Chapter 9: An Invitation to Catch the Wind
At the beginning, Sheng Weiqiao left Xijiang in a hurry, and he didn't bring a single maid, let alone a lion cat.
After that, the Saili army pressed the border, Yizhou fell, and most of the huge western frontier fell into the hands of the enemy.
Although Rong Sleeping Crane soon drove Sai Li out of the country, Sheng Weiqiao had more dowries in Western Xinjiang, and most of them were servants who served her and stewards who took care of the industry.
Because he was afraid of hearing bad news, Sheng Weiqiao never dared to ask in detail.
Now I am excited to see the henchmen who grew up together in front of me.
Not only was she excited, but Sheng Lanci and his wife were also very surprised, and asked about the experience of Ju Fence and Hibiscus Fence these days.
Ju Li and Jin Li knew that the master's family had just been reunited, and it was not a long time, so they said briefly: "Before Ruru invaded the Western Xinjiang, the king of the county ordered a few slaves and maids, as well as the stewards who were burdened with heavy responsibilities, to the rear. Until a few days ago, the king of the county planned to return to Chang'an to report on his work and reunite with the princess of the county, so he sent someone to pick up the slaves and maids. ”
Sheng Lanci sighed and said, "You have been wronged these days, but I don't know if you have been injured?
At first, the slaves were a little worried about the princess because they didn't know what was going on, but then they were relieved to know that the princess was safe. Ju Li and Jin Li hurriedly said, "The slaves and maids have not suffered any grievances, but they are worried about the county king and the county princess!"
As for the others, "The king of the county has ordered a search, and presumably most of them will come to join us soon." ”
That is to say, Rong Sleeping Crane has only saved part of it, and there are still a considerable number of people who are left to fend for themselves.
But this is also human nature, after all, the dowry that Sheng Weiqiao brought to Western Xinjiang was not one or two, it was hundreds. With so many people, Rong Sleeping Crane was at a disadvantage at that time, and it can be said that he was exhausted, so he was very tight.
In this case, it is already very good that he can keep Sheng Weiqiao's close attendants and important stewards.
Sheng Lan said in her heart: "After these people return, they can be identified by the good students, and if anyone is dissatisfied with the good girl or the secret virgin because of this, they have to try to send them away." ”
Thinking so, he exchanged a tacit look with Feng, but his face was not leaking, and he comforted Ju Li and Hibiscus Fence a few words, implying that there would be compensation in the future, and this section was over.
Ju Li and Hibiscus served tea, everyone sat down, said a few words, Rong Ruibin suddenly cried, Feng Shi looked at it, and hurriedly called the nurse to take it down and clean it up, saying that it was urine.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Feng asked Ju Li to take Sheng Weiyuan out for a walk: "This kid has never been able to sit still, and the kung fu of talking about this is almost the same." If you don't let him out, he'll make trouble again. We'll have a headache when the time comes!"
Sheng Weiyuan didn't want to, sat still, and said, "I don't want to go out, I just want to stay here!"
However, Feng ignored it at all, and when he saw that Ju Li was holding his hand in the past, he didn't move, so he simply said to Xu Lianshan: "Lianshan, it seems that this kid still needs your help?"
Xu Lianshan understood, directly stepped forward to cover Sheng Weiyuan's mouth, and forcibly took the person away.
Seeing this situation, Ju Li and Jinli, the two native maids of the Sheng family, were very surprised, because like Sheng Weiqiao, they both felt that Sheng Lanci and his wife were so fond of their daughter, and they were spoiled to the point of indiscriminateness, not to mention the son who had only been going around for all these years?
However, Sheng Lanci and his wife were calm, obviously this scene was either unexpected or strange, and they did not mean to scold Xu Lianshan's actions, they didn't dare to say much, they only silently suppressed this doubt in their hearts, thinking about going back to Sheng Weiqiao in private.
"Mizhen, everyone has basically not seen each other in the past two years...... "The two children have been dismissed, the idlers have also been dismissed, and the people present are all henchmen, and they can finally be said to be down to business, but Sheng Lan just got up, and on the corridor outside, there was a sound of footsteps, followed by someone probing his brain at the door, as if he had something to tell.
Yi Shan received Rong Sleeping Crane's eyes and raised her voice to ask.
There was a saying: "The princess and the princess heard that the lord of the in-laws and the in-laws and the in-laws came to Chang'an, and she was very happy, and specially sent the prince to invite her, and prepared to set up a banquet in the palace to pick up the wind and wash the dust for the in-laws, the in-laws, the in-laws, the in-laws, the in-laws, and the young sons!"
…… After Rong Sleepy Crane set off to return to Chang'an, and sent someone to Nanfeng County to pick up his wife and children for a reunion, he was quickly reminded by his subordinates about the placement of Gaomi Palace.
Because Xu Zijing told King Gaomi that he did not hesitate to abandon Meng Guiyu and join forces to deal with Rong Sleeping Crane, a group of subordinates led by Le Yangwen were very disgusted with King Gaomi.
If it weren't for the fact that this person was Rong Sleeping Crane's blood relative or his own father, they really wanted to persuade Rong Sleeping Crane to simply kill him.
And Rong Sleeping Crane may not have thought about it, or he had other considerations, in short, after thinking about it, he sent someone to Ruzhou to ask King Gaomi and his own thoughts.
Of course, King Gaomi and the others want to come back to Chang'an!
First, most of them have been living in Chang'an, and they are not used to living in Ruzhou at all!
Second, whether it is out of concern for Rong Sleeping Crane or calculating the idea of Rong Sleeping Crane, it is naturally more convenient to come back to Chang'an!
Therefore, after getting Rong Sleeping Crane's permission and promise to help them solve the problem of "rebel Wang Rongjing" and others returning to Chang'an, these people simply returned to their hearts like arrows and ran back in a few days.
And the imperial court headed by Meng Guiyu, under the pressure of Rong Sleeping Crane, also had to issue a holy decree of amnesty in the name of Emperor Xuanjing. not only pardoned King Gaomi, but also restored his titles and official positions with his faction.
Regarding this holy decree, Rong Sleeping Crane and Meng Guiyu also had a fight.
The reason is that Meng Guiyu intends to write like this: Although King Gaomi rebelled against the army before, he also forced the Queen Mother and Emperor Xuanjing to stay in Shanglin Yuan for several months and could not return to the palace, and even slandered Emperor Xuanjing as a stand-in...... But for the sake of the first emperor's blood and blood, Emperor Xuanjing is still willing to forgive this younger brother!
However, the reason for Rong Sleeping Crane's amnesty is: after a thorough investigation, the reason why King Gaomi thought that Emperor Xuanjing was a stand-in and raised troops was because of Ruru's conspiracy!
Therefore, everything is to blame on Ruru, King Gaomi is trying to serve the country, but because people are too upright and Ruru is too insidious, he was deceived!
Rong Sleeping Crane did this, not because he had any feelings for King Gaomi, or because of his love for Princess Gaomi, so he considered King Gaomi.
It's purely because he has big plans, and his biological parents are stained, which is not good for him.
Anyway, he didn't have a good relationship with Meng Guiyu, and this kind of thing that made Meng Guiyu block it was easy to do.
After bargaining between the two sides, even the Empress Dowager Meng fainted with anger, and finally compromised a rhetoric and poured sewage on the head of the late Qi Jianxun...... The Qi family also has some power in the Damu court, otherwise King Gaomi would not have chosen the Qi family as his wife for his beloved son.
Before, Qi Jianxun secretly left Chang'an to contact the Northern Xinjiang Army, and Rong Sleeping Crane took advantage of this opportunity to trap King Gaomi, not to mention, and even his family members did not have a share in evacuating.
However, out of various considerations, Meng Guiyu gave the Qi family some dismounts after they didn't have their own decisions, and it didn't matter.
Because of this amnesty decree, the remaining people of the Qi family are all unlucky.
became a victim of Rong Sleeping Crane and Meng Guiyu's wrestling.
Well, so Princess Gaomi is still Princess Gaomi now, and the Gaomi Mansion was also returned to the Gaomi family after emergency repairs and cleanups.
At this time, I heard that the princess was going to hold a banquet for her in-laws, and Sheng Lanci and his wife looked serious.
Especially Feng's family, she has never seen Princess Gaomi until now, so she pieced together an image from her husband, in-laws, parents-in-law and others: she was born in a famous family, full of rules, and her requirements for her daughter-in-law are virtuous and virtuous...... So I don't like the squeamish Sheng Weiqiao at all!
In these years, the more high-ranking families are, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not in harmony, and the more the daughter-in-law suffers!
Although Feng herself took advantage of the early arrival of her mother-in-law and the low status of her step-mother-in-law, she was not angry with her mother-in-law, but her sister announced it to Feng, but she really suffered from her mother-in-law for several years!
This is also the reason why Xuan Yu Feng later drove all the children who were not his own out of the family...... Her mother-in-law doesn't have much eye on her son's concubine, but she is very important to the heir, and has always asked Xuanyu Feng to treat the children of the concubine, including the children of the outer room, as her own flesh and blood!
…… It's almost what Xu Baomo thought when he didn't get married: he got along with his concubine, outer room, mistress, hook lan, etc., and his wife worked hard in the backyard to help take care of the family business and take care of the children.
Although it is said that Xuanyu Feng is not obedient at all, after Feng has seen this stark example, he also substituted Princess Gaomi into the appearance of the old lady of the previous generation of Xuanyu family.
Hearing this, he immediately threw aside the idea of asking about the current situation, and said decisively: "We are really ashamed of the princess of the in-laws to be so polite! ”
Although Rong Sleeping Crane is different from his father, he can't really say how affectionate he is with this mother.
Now it's easy to reunite with my wife and children, and I still want to discuss some things with my father-in-law and mother-in-law, but I'm really impatient to be disturbed by Princess Gaomi.
Helplessly, Sheng Lanci and his wife both thought that figuring out the princess's true attitude towards her daughter was more important than communicating with her son-in-law, and he couldn't say anything.
I had to ask someone to invite Rong Qingyu over.
Rong Qingqi entered the door, except for Feng, everyone who had seen him was shocked, because he was not only very thin at this time, but his face was also sallow, and he looked as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
"Shizi, ...... this?" Sheng Lanci's family only came to Chang'an, and when they were in Nanfeng County before, they mainly inquired about Rong Mianhe and other people who were close to their own family, and they were not very clear about the affairs of the Qi family and the inside story of King Gaomi's defeat, so I was surprised to see him at this time.
Sheng Lanci asked, "Is this uncomfortable? Then why do you have to come here in person? In fact, since our two families are in-laws, the princess of the in-laws sent a steward to say something, so why bother the world?"
Rong Qing's complexion was very bad, but his spirit was acceptable, he smiled reluctantly when he heard the words, glanced at Rong Sleeping Crane, and stopped talking, and finally only said: "The in-laws and the in-laws and the in-laws personally sent their younger brothers and sisters to Chang'an to reunite with the third brother, and the mother was very guilty after knowing it, and said that the third brother and sister have been married into the palace for many years, and we haven't taken much care of it, and we are very tired of the in-laws." This time Ruibin landed, the mother concubine, who is a grandmother, and I am an uncle, have not done anything for the child so far, and I really don't want to go. It is because the mother wants to invite you to the banquet, not only to wash the dust for you, but also to thank your in-laws for their hard work these days!"
Sheng Lanci and his wife planned to go over early in the morning, Princess Gaomi wanted to give them a pick-up, and they wanted to see their grandson, they also wanted to see what this princess thought about the Sheng family and Sheng Weiqiao?
If they really can't get along with Sheng Weiqiao, when they talk to Rong Sleeping Crane next, they have to work hard to separate the relationship between the mother and son, so as not to be wronged by their daughter in the future!
At this moment, Tong Rong Qingyu said a few polite words, and he agreed to push the boat down the river.
