Chapter 307: Aunt and Nephew
Before the King of Gaomi suddenly raised his army, and rebelled against the commander of the forbidden army, with a deliberate calculation or unintentional, not only the Meng clan and the henchmen who were killed were almost killed and wounded, but even the Queen Mother, Emperor Xuanjing and the Shu sisters who had just moved to Shanglin Yuan were in a hurry.
Although he fell short outside the Hehuan Palace, but after occupying Chang'an, he held a large number of powerful hostages, and slandered Emperor Xuanjing had already died, and now he is only a stand-in, and many people who want to be the king of Qin are hesitant, for fear that this is true, and he is loyal, but it has become a rebellious act, which will affect the nine clans.
However, the people on King Gaomi's side originally followed him under the pretext of following the dragon, and when they received the news, they probably sent some soldiers, horses, food and grass to support.
Therefore, although the divided forbidden army is in a confrontation, looking at the situation, it is the side of King Gaomi that is gradually gaining the upper hand.
At this moment, when he heard that Shanglin Yuan was attacking the city, King Gaomi was not surprised, he stood up, and said: "This must be Meng Guiyu's little boy who knows that if the stalemate continues, he and the stand-in are just ten dead!
As he spoke, he walked outward, to go to the city to supervise the battle, and ordered, "Tell the spies outside to be more energetic! lest they attack the east and west, and use the opportunity of attacking Chang'an City to attract our attention, and secretly protect the stand-in and flee elsewhere!"
The three of them were glad that they had escaped, although they knew that King Gaomi had invited them over this time, and they didn't say that they wouldn't look for it next time, but now that they have passed this level, they can take a breath, and the most important thing is that they can take the opportunity to collude with a confession or something, so as to offset the surprise of the wife who has been peaceful for some days and was suddenly "invited".
Who knew that at this time, King Gaomi thought about it, turned his head and said: "I heard that Old Lady Sheng has been fighting in Northern Xinjiang for many years, and I think I am also interested in this scene?
Old lady Sheng frowned and said: "Thanks to the prince's love, I am very grateful! It's just that I am old, and I am injured again, and when I am no longer in my prime, this kind of scene is also a disappointment after it goes, and it does not delay the prince's business." β
When he's stupid!
Although it is said that because of the father-son relationship between Rong Sleeping Crane and King Gaomi, as Rong Sleeping Crane's Yue family, the Sheng family is inevitably considered by most people to be King Gaomi's faction.
But the Sheng family did not make an obvious statement for a day, and there was still room for activity after all.
If there is a battle with the head of the Gaomi Dynasty at this time, where will it be clear?
Even if he wasn't worried that King Gaomi would lose to Meng Guiyu, Old Lady Sheng had to think about Rong Sleeping Crane: Rong Sleeping Crane's Yue family was obviously standing in line, how could Rong Sleeping Crane stay out of the matter?
Isn't this equivalent to helping King Gaomi pull his grandson-in-law onto the rebellious ship!
It's not that he doesn't know that Rong Mianhe has a bad relationship with King Gaomi, and he may not be willing to follow King Gaomi's calculations, where can he agree to such an invitation?
"Lone just asked the old lady of the in-laws to guide the battle, and he didn't want the old lady to take the lead in his own life. It's just that King Gaomi didn't allow him to refuse, and said coldly, "Or is the old lady of the in-laws used to seeing the big scene in the northern Xinjiang, and he can't look down on Lone's little fight?"
Speaking of this, now that Chang'an is in charge of the King of Gaomi, the old lady Sheng had no choice but to say: "The king of the county doesn't think I'm old, so I'll go with the king of the county!"
Old Lady Feng glanced at the worried Old Lady Ming, smiled and arched her hand, and said, "The King of the County, can the grass people have a long time together?"
King Gaomi was indispensable, and said, "Old lady Feng is together!"
Seeing that he was also going, Mrs. Ming was about to speak, but was glared at by Mrs. Sheng fiercely: "After you go back, you will be staring at the house, don't take advantage of our absence, and touch those treasured antiques or something, so that the dishonest servants of their hands and feet are touched!"
Mrs. Ming was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses, the three of them were "invited" in a hurry, and they didn't know the old house at this time, for example, whether the Ningwei Hou Mansion had received the news, and they couldn't leave someone to go back to report the news?
However, she still wanted to report the news, and was sent back to the Sheng Mansion by carriage after a while, but found that there was a circle of people around the front and back of the mansion, all of them with bright armor, bows and knives, and a posture of raiding the family and exterminating the clan.
Originally, Mrs. Ming was timid, but when she saw this situation, her legs were weak.
The guard at the head of the guard was very polite but had no room to turn around and told her: "The prince is worried that there will be bandits harassing the mansion at this extraordinary time, so he specially ordered the lowly to bring people to wait here!"
Fortunately, the old lady Ming was certainly watched, and she couldn't send someone to pass on the news to the people close to her, but the Ningwei Hou Mansion already knew about it, and the Nan family was worried: "King Gaomi is so ruthless to Mizhen's own son, let alone Mizhen's parents-in-law? The old lady and the old lady are all old, where can they suffer? What should I do? Why don't I go and ask to see the princess?"
"I'm afraid it's useless to go. Xu Zijing heard this and reminded her, "Chang'an has seen so many big things happen these days, and the princess is not gone, how can she not know everything?" But she has never come forward until now, obviously either she agrees with King Gaomi's approach, or she can't persuade King Gaomi. Either way, you're running in vain, embarrassing the princess in vain. β
The Nan family didn't understand this truth, but they were just worried about Mrs. Sheng, Mrs. Ming and Mrs. Feng, and they were helpless after thinking for a while, so they had to discuss with their husbands, and temporarily concealed Old Marquis Xu and Old Madam Xiahou: "It's not that I don't have friendships, but now that there is no feasible strategy, if I teach my father and mother to know it early, it will be bad for my health!
Xu Zijing also thought so, so the couple called someone to come over and beat them, to temporarily hide from the two old men.
After sending the subordinates, the Nan family was worried about Sheng Weiqiao, who was far away in the north: "Two days ago, Old Lady Feng personally came to tell us that Qiao'er was born prematurely, and she was in a hurry to give birth, but fortunately, the child was blessed and the mother and child were safe! I am happy, who knows that this will be the end of it...... I really don't know what kind of heart the Gaomi royal couple are? In the past, the princess didn't like Qiao'er very much, but after knowing that Qiao'er was happy, I still thought that it was okay now, I didn't like my daughter-in-law, how could I not like my grandson? Looking back at my grandson's face, I had to be a little tolerant of Qiao'er...... Now it seems that Mizhen is not close to his biological parents, such parents, but who is not cold to anyone who is reasonable?"
"Although Mizhen's child is young, he is accurate in his ability to see people and things. Xu Zijing also sighed, "It's also fortunate that he has such a temperament, otherwise how would Qiao'er live? In these years, there are not many mothers-in-law who treat their daughters-in-law well, and there are even fewer who are as considerate and reasonable as you." The princess is from a family, and there is a way to learn from people quietly, just Qiao Er is naΓ―ve, where will this mother-in-law be the opponent? Without the protection of Mizhen, I am afraid that I will not survive for a few years!"
"I really don't understand the princess!" Nan frowned and said, "In the early years of the epidemic, she couldn't have done it. Otherwise, after that incident, how could she and her own flesh and blood survive? Whether it is Concubine Mo or King Gaomi, there is no reason to poison her own blood and blood, right? Even those concubines of King Gaomi have been sent away!"
"Judging from this matter, she is really distressed about Mizhen's exile!"
"After Mizhen was brought back by them, I also felt that the princess really liked and loved this son!"
"Why is it that no matter the rumors from the previous time or the situation at this time, she seems to have forgotten that Mi Zhen is her son?"
At this moment, Princess Gaomi, who was being discussed by them, was sitting in the pavilion behind Xiangji Hall, looking fixedly at the clear but bottomless pool water in front of her.
Not far behind him, Zhao Taocheng, who had been standing for a long time, was a little uneasy: "Auntie, did I say the wrong thing?"
"Ah?" the princess seemed to be a little distracted, stunned for a moment, then turned her eyes away, and said with a smile, "Good boy, what did you say?
Zhao Taocheng said with concern: "Since it is the past, it is all in the past, if you are unhappy, my aunt should not think about it...... It's windy on this lake, do you think it's okay, auntie? Why don't we go back to the hall and talk?"
Princess Gaomi smiled and declined her kindness: "It's hot now, it's cool to talk here, if you go back to the hall, even if you have Bingjian, you will be depressed." β
Then he asked her, "What did you just say?"
"It's the big sister thing. Zhao Taocheng hurriedly said, "Although we all think that my uncle will definitely not embarrass her and her nephew and niece, but the eldest sister may have been frightened by the tragedy of Guangling Palace, and she has been restless for the past two days...... I can't eat well, I can't sleep well, and when I'm empty, I'm just hugging my nephew and crying to my niece! You say that if this is a long time, how can it be done?"
"So I ...... I took the opportunity to come over and beg my aunt for advice!"
β¦β¦ That day, when Mrs. Qin asked her granddaughter to come to Princess Gaomi, Zhao Taocheng originally planned to come immediately, but when she was watching her subordinates make pastries for Princess Gaomi in the kitchen, her sister-in-law Li Shi came over and called her to the side to speak: "Grandmother asked you to go to your aunt to intercede with your eldest sister?"
Seeing the sister-in-law nodding, she asked again, "Are you going to go over right away?"
After getting Zhao Taocheng's confirmation, Li Shi hated her for being ignorant: "If grandmother goes to her aunt immediately, it will be fine! You are a junior, you are so anxious to suspect your uncle, even if your uncle is not as knowledgeable as your child, how can you be happy in your heart? Now Chang'an is his uncle's master, although we are his father-in-law's family, but because my father helped my cousin Mizhen, my uncle is a little displeased with our house these days, why do you want to come out again?" Grandmother is old, and she only heard what happened to her eldest sister, and she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, so she didn't think about it thoroughly, why don't you think about it yourself, so that you can fill in the gaps for her old man?"
"But what about the eldest sister?" Zhao Taocheng felt that what her sister-in-law said made sense, but she was worried about Zhao Taojiao.
"What's the hurry, the eldest sister was picked up by someone I sent, can I still ignore her?" Li Shi pointed out, "It's just that she just came back! Uncle has a lot of things to do now, even if he thinks of the eldest sister, he can't be so anxious to take her and the two nephews, right? You wait a few days, and then go to visit your aunt when you're done, and then you can say that the eldest sister has been full of worries during the days when she came back to live in a small place, and you don't feel at ease as a younger sister, so you go to your aunt for help...... In this way, even if my uncle knows, I can say that the eldest sister is just a woman after all, and after encountering the tragedy of the almost destruction of the Guangling Palace, how can I not be frightened?"
"Outsiders know, and they won't talk about my uncle's bad treatment of our Zhao family, do you think that's the truth?"
At this moment, Zhao Taocheng followed her sister-in-law's guidance and said to Princess Gaomi: "The eldest sister has always been gentle and virtuous, but she is only a woman, she neither knows nor understands those big things, but at this time, she just wants to keep her nephew and niece grow up safely!"
