Chapter 64: Sudden Change!
Queen Meng said indifferently: "Anyway, I will help to run to the King of Guangling to complain, and after the King of Guangling punishes the son, although the son of the world is also disgusted with the father of this life, but for the sake of the bloodline, if he can't do anything to wave his fist at the King of Guangling, he will naturally double the trouble of going to Concubine Meng...... This kind of cycle was not until the side concubine was happy recently, and the people around her got serious about the heirs, and began to prevent the prince from rashly approaching the side concubine!"
"......" Sheng Weiqiao thought for a while, but frowned, "Is it for the Meng clan to do this...... Chunbo Lake Water Division?!"
Although Meng Guiyu has lived in a simple house since his sister was accepted into the Guangling Palace's mansion as a side concubine and was promoted to General Zuo Weiwei, he has not even seen a shadow of a person at various banquets that were rarely left in the past. Chang'an has always been forgetful, it has only been more than half a year, and Chongxinbo, who was once the most popular, has a tendency to be forgotten, but Sheng Weiqiao knows that a mere Meng Guihuan is not qualified to ask Meng to deliberately toss her.
Ten out of ten, it is the drunkard's intention not to drink, the purpose is to put pressure on Meng Guiyu through Meng Guihuan's situation and obtain the actual control of the water master of Chunbo Lake!
"Otherwise, why else?" Empress Meng's eyes were complicated, "Junmu, do you know? I often fantasize sometimes that I can be like Mi Zhen, just be a child and be outcast." In that case, even if I lived a very hard life, even in that kind of unsightly and filthy place, I at least had an expectation, that is, my own family members loved me very much and would do everything to protect me, but I was separated from them...... Instead of being like now, there is no hope, looking at the fate of my cousin, it is as if I have seen my future self. ”
Although she had known Sheng Weiqiao's words for a long time, this was the first time she had used this word to call her.
Sheng Weiqiao couldn't quite understand the queen's mood at the moment, and was silent for a while before saying: "When my father brought Mizhen back, I thought he was from my father's outer room, not only did he not treat him well, but also looked down on my father in various ways, and even thought about running back to Feng's house like my mother, and never paid attention to my father again. If you are really disappointed in your relatives, I think, it is better to treat them as just strangers? There are so many people in this world, as long as you live, you will always meet someone who is in love. For example, don't we both think it's good for each other?"
"Do you know why I call you 'Junmu' today?" the Empress didn't look at her, but stared at the temple bricks not far away, and said softly, "I've been thinking lately, if only I could be like the word Ling Zun said to you. To be a tall tree, you don't need to rely on anyone, and you don't have to look at the flies on the soles of your feet, just grow upright...... Even if it is destroyed by natural disasters or man-made disasters one day, it will be overshadowed in the end. ”
"But the word I chose for myself is a prophecy: I used to think that my name was 'Biyun', so I chose the word 'Qing' to echo the name, and for me to avoid those disturbances with my love of reading at that time, I took the word 'Lang' of 'Shusheng Lang'. However, the original meaning of 'Lang' is a beautiful stone like jade. ”
"No matter how it looks, it's not jade after all. ”
"Just like me, the so-called queen, it sounds noble, but it's not like that at all!"
Sheng Weiqiao listened quietly, not knowing whether she was stimulated by Concubine Meng's situation, or troubled by the imminent parting of the two, Queen Meng at this moment was a little different from before.
The previous queen, although she also complained, was probably just a drop in the water, sometimes Sheng Weiqiao was sad for her, and she would comfort Sheng Weiqiao in turn.
But today the queen seems to be about to collapse......
Sheng Weiqiao was both worried and suspicious in his heart, and secretly thought: "It is said that Qinglang grew up in such a family, and when he entered the Wangchun Palace, he even smiled happily because he felt that he could finally live the life he wanted...... Shouldn't she be so vulnerable! Could it be that she has suffered other grievances in the palace recently, but it is difficult to say them?"
As for where this grievance came from, it can be seen that Bacheng has something to do with the Shu sisters.
"I really don't know what the Meng family thinks?" Sheng Weiqiao sighed secretly and said in his heart, "The Shu sisters don't take the queen in their eyes at this time, and trample on the dignity of the middle palace at will. Even if Concubine Meng gave birth to a male heir and successfully passed to Qinglang's knees, wouldn't the Shu sisters kill the child?"
The two sisters had even killed the real prince at the beginning, not to mention that they were only the heirs of King Guangling and Concubine Meng?
"By the way, I heard that King Gaomi plans to let the prince be in charge of Zhao'an, and Mizhen will only send someone to assist?" Fortunately, Queen Meng was still sensible in the end, and after losing control for a while, she gradually controlled herself, and while taking the handkerchief handed by Sheng Weiqiao to wipe her face, she asked, "It's not that I said to sow discord, but your father-in-law is really a little biased, how can Mizhen say that he also came back after being exiled for so many years, and he is not partial, but he is afraid that Mizhen will covet the position of the prince!"
Sheng Weiqiao sighed: "After all, the son of the world is the eldest son, according to the etiquette, it is appropriate for his father to be biased." And Mizhen has been living abroad since she was a child, and it is difficult to compare with the son of the world who grew up watching his father. I can't say anything about this even if I am sorry for Mizhen...... But speaking of which, my sister-in-law is really good and can teach children. ”
Empress Meng let out a "hmm" and did not continue the topic, but said: "Let me say something nosy: the person sent by Mi Zhen to help the prince is better the one who is loyal to him and is not moved by all kinds of temptations...... Otherwise, according to what I know about these people, King Gaomi will take the opportunity to dig the foot of the wall!"
"That should be Ah Xi and Ying Dun who have been following him for the past two years, right?" Sheng Weiqiao was slightly stunned, she was not very interested in this kind of thing, so she didn't interrogate Rong Sleeping Crane much, all she knew so far was what Rong Sleeping Crane casually told, and I really didn't know who Rong Sleeping Crane sent to help Rong Qingchu, but out of trust in her husband's ability, she was not very worried, and said casually, "Well, it shouldn't be Ying Dun." Mi Zhen was still telling me just now that Ying Dun was not enough to be in charge on his own, and he planned to continue to take him around for a while......!
Sheng Weiqiao said that there was a pause in thinking for a moment because of this, but Queen Meng had already subconsciously asked: "What's wrong with him?"
"I think he's a little younger, and he doesn't know if he can do such a big thing?" Sheng Weiqiao didn't pay attention at this time, and said truthfully, "And if Mi Zhen sends more than one person to help the prince, he may not be able to suppress it?"
Sheng Weiqiao said this because he knew that Gongsun Xi was actually from Tortoiseshell Island like Rong Sleeping Crane, and he was very squeezed out by Xu Lianshan and others before, even if with the improvement of Rong Sleeping Crane's status and power, Gongsun Xi also rose with the tide, but what is the status of this person in Rong Sleeping Crane's lineage now, and whether he can suppress those bandits without Rong Sleeping Crane, Sheng Weiqiao is not sure.
But to Queen Meng's ears, Gongsun Xi was only born in Rong Sleeping Crane after all, even if he was a servant of the master, he was also looked down upon in the eyes of those who had been dissatisfied with the king for a long time at sea.
If it is inferred like this, Rong Sleeping Crane will not send him to the sea?
The queen pursed her lips and did not say anything more about the subject, but turned to other trivial matters.
On this day, Sheng Weiqiao didn't react suddenly until after the banquet was over, when he returned to the county king's mansion: "Qinglang...... Seems to have a slightly different attitude towards Ah Xi?"
Although Gongsun Xi once saved Queen Meng and worked as a guard in Wangchun Palace, it is reasonable for the queen to be particularly concerned about him under Rong Sleeping Crane.
But Sheng Weiqiao carefully recalled the conversation between the two of them, and always felt that the queen's sentence "What's wrong with him" revealed some unusual concern......?
"Qinglang, she is not quite right today, is it also related to this matter?" Sheng Weiqiao was very worried, because even if he didn't mention the huge gap between Empress Meng and Gongsun Xi, he said that Gongsun Xi had always been indifferent to people other than Rong Sleeping Crane, and he had saved Queen Meng in time and worked as a guard in Wangchun Palace, but he might not have any unusual feelings for the queen because of this.
If the queen really has any good feelings for Gongsun Xi, it is basically impossible for these two people.
And although the queen is Meng's own daughter and concubine, she has always been used as a pawn by Meng, if Meng knows what she thinks about the subordinates of the son of the number one political enemy, she will definitely not allow it.
Even if it is out of the difficult consideration of establishing another successor, Queen Meng will not be eliminated because of this, but the beating and the like are certain......
That night, Sheng Weiqiao had been a little absent-minded because of this matter, so much so that after bathing, she entered the tent with Rong Sleeping Crane, who turned around and dressed her for her, and she patted it away impatiently: "Don't make trouble, I think about things!"
"Good girl, you don't want to think about things, you want to do things!" Seeing this, Rong Sleeping Crane couldn't help but laugh, "At this time, you told me that you want to do things...... You said that in the middle of the night, lonely men and widows are in the same room, what else is there to think about besides what we have to do next?"
Sheng Weiqiao glanced at him, and took the lead in sitting on the edge of the couch, because it was directly about to be placed after bathing, although the maid had already helped to dry the black hair, but at this time it was not hairpin or bundled, so the crow and crow spread most of the couch, so it showed more and more that her face was white, like mutton fat jade, and it was shining.
Rong Sleeping Crane looked at it, her eyes became a little darker, but the princess of the county was not thinking about the Dunlun ceremony at the moment, she sat with her chest crossed, and snorted coldly: "I suddenly remembered just now, I am in the palace today, there is one thing I may ignore!"
Rong Sleeping Crane said: "Well, when we passed by that flower path, the branches and leaves on both sides were very dense, and the people next to us couldn't see clearly. ”
When he said this suddenly, Sheng Weiqiao couldn't help but be puzzled, so he didn't continue, but looked at him stunned, wondering what he was going to say.
I heard Rong Sleeping Crane continue: "At that time, your sleeping brother should kiss you...... Did you forget to remind you that your brother was sleeping at home?"
"......" Sheng Weiqiao picked up the jade pillow with an expressionless face, "You try to talk nonsense with me again!"
Rong Sleeping Crane smiled: "Good girl, you are so well-behaved! Your sleeping brother has long seen that this jade pillow is not pleasing to the eye, obviously if you don't have it, you can directly pillow your sleeping brother's arm, right?"
Sheng Weiqiao glared at him angrily, and then put down the lotus leaf pillow of the green jade baby he was marrying: "Ah Xi......"
She originally wanted to ask Gongsun Xi if she had any special feelings for Empress Meng, but she didn't want to speak, but suddenly there was a heavy and rapid footsteps outside!
Following the surprised questioning voice of the night watchman, Xu Lianshan's tired and angry voice came into the inner room: "King of the county, something is wrong." ”
He seemed to take a deep breath before continuing, "Ruru has invaded the northern frontier in a big way, and by the time the messenger left the northern frontier, he had already gone down to the three cities!"
The originally relaxed and charming atmosphere in the tent froze instantly.
