Chapter 90: An Unexpected Choice

The shadow of the name of the man, the shadow of the tree.

Although it has been more than ten years since Huan Guanlan disappeared, a generation has passed, but for Da Mu Chaotang, it is still an insurmountable mountain.

Even the three Meng brothers, who developed the Meng family from a small family to a wealthy family that everyone in the country knows about, mentioned that he also subconsciously felt a tingling in his scalp.

Wu Anhou was the first to think of the worst possibility: "Big brother, you say...... The little prince born by the Xiaowen clan back then, is he really dead?"

After all, Huan Guanlan is obviously alive, but he has been unable to bear it, there should always be a reason.

Most likely, isn't it secretly cultivating the future prince?

This is absolutely unacceptable to Meng!

Chengyang Hou also changed his face: "Do you want to assassinate Mi Zhen at any cost?" No matter what the old man is trying to hide, since he handed over the Jishan thief who is entrenched in the western Xinjiang to Mi Zhen, he obviously attaches great importance to Mi Zhen. In this way, if Mizhen's life is in trouble, how can the old man sit still?"

"The matter of the little prince, there is no need for King Gaomi to lie to us. Zheng Guogong pondered for a moment and said, "After all, he himself has no intention of letting that little prince succeed to the throne, in his opinion, this Da Mu's throne should have been his from beginning to end!

In the final analysis, the Meng family was the main force in the death of the prince born by the Xiaowen family, the Shu sisters were charged, and the King Gaomi also contributed to the trouble.

This is the reason why the Wen family and Huan Guanlan failed.

Therefore, if the little prince is still alive, and he has been trained and cultivated by Huan Guanlan, the Meng family will not be able to please him in the future, and King Gaomi will not be able to escape the reckoning after the autumn.

"But the relationship between King Gaomi and Mizhen has not been very good. Cheng Yanghou reminded, "At this time, it is suspected that it is Mi Zhen who has a deep relationship with Huan Guanlan, not King Gaomi." Mi Zhen has been living abroad since he was a child, and he said that he was raised by the Sheng family, but who knows what kind of experience he actually had? If he had been influenced by Huan Guanlan, it would not be difficult to separate his relationship with King Gao Mi by means of Huan Guanlan. In this way, even if he knew that the little prince was still alive, how could he be willing to tell King Gaomi? King Gaomi himself didn't know the truth, so how could what he told us be the truth?"

"And although the little prince and Mizhen are two years apart, Mizhen was almost twenty when she came to Chang'an. Wu Anhou's face sank like water, and added, "It is easy to distinguish between a five-year-old child and a three-year-old child, but not a twenty-year-old man and an eighteen-year-old man, after all, such an old person, the privilege of life, temperament, conversation and appearance, it is easy to blur the two-year-old difference...... Is it possible that Mi Zhen is the little prince, and he has pretended to be the identity of the concubine of King Gaomi?!"

Cheng Yanghou subconsciously said: "Didn't you confess your relatives with blood that day?

"That blood confession was held in Ningweihou's Mansion, and the things were also prepared by Ningweihou's Mansion. Wu'an Hou said, "Ningwei Hou Mansion and the Sheng family have always been good and like a family, Mi Zhen is from the Sheng family, and she has also been on the Sheng family tree." If the Sheng family has the heart to cover it up for him, and even the Sheng family was originally a secret son buried by Huan Guanlan, hiding from Princess Gaomi and her eldest brother, what's so strange?"

"Ah wait!" Cheng Yanghou said busily, "I almost forgot, the reason why the Gaomi Mansion found the Ningwei Hou Mansion, at least the reason why they announced it to the public, is not because Mi Zhen looks like Concubine Mo? But the little prince is the grandson of the eldest sister, and it has nothing to do with Concubine Mo, right?"

Wu Anhou stopped his words and said, "Maybe it's a coincidence? Concubine Mo was a beauty when she was young, and Xiao Wen's appearance was not bad." Mi Zhen has a beautiful appearance, although this good-looking person has its own merits, but there are so many kinds of good-looking people back and forth, maybe they just happened to bump into each other?"

Cheng Yanghou was dissatisfied: "Second brother, you are raising the bar, let's listen to the eldest brother!"

Being watched by the two younger brothers, Zheng Guogong's eyebrows tightened, and after a while, he said: "Don't act rashly first, if there is no one behind Mizhen, it's just a coincidence that the Jishan thieves will be returned, if there is really someone, it will still be a figure like Huan Guanlan or General Zhou...... Once they know that we are suspicious, it will be difficult to trace their traces at this moment, or to speculate about their purpose and plan!"

Cheng Yanghou hurriedly asked, "Big brother, then why don't we do anything?"

"Don't move the Xijiang side first, after all, who knows if the person behind Mi Zhen is only Jishan to steal a card? The left and right family cadres have failed, and even if they catch their flaws for the time being, they will be beyond the reach of the whip!" Zheng Guogong said coldly, "The news from Jiangnan two days ago doesn't mean that the Luo family rejected my Meng family's proposal, the reason is that the daughter of their family head has already been introduced by the clan uncle Nanfeng County and promised to Sheng Weide, the eldest son of the Sheng family, but the two sides have always been low-key and have not been announced?"

He narrowed his eyes and stroked his long beard, "My Meng family disciple is sincere to the Luo family's palm beads, although it is said that a gentleman has the beauty of an adult, but young people, it is normal for people to be unable to hold their breath and do something impulsive...... Bo Heng's body is not good at this time, and even if he is complete, his waste is not as capable as Biyun, and he can't be counted on. The two of you are on your knees, but who has the time to take a trip to Nanfeng County and check the details of the Sheng family?"

Wu Anhou and Chengyang Hou glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Big brother, do you suspect that Huan Guanlan is hiding in the Sheng family?"

"Even if people are not in the Sheng family, they must have a deep relationship with the Sheng family!" Zheng Guogong sneered, "This is not only because Mizhen is from the Sheng family, but also because of the rise of the Sheng family...... Don't you think it's too fast? Maybe Sheng Lanci is indeed good at the way of business, and he caught up with the good master of the Gongsun family, but his journey was too smooth after all, and there were always nobles to help him at critical moments, and there were similarities with Mizhen's westward journey, how could he not figure it out?!"

He sighed, "In order to prevent Huan Guanlan from really sitting in the Sheng family, remember, the person who goes must be a junior, the usually inconspicuous kind, and the purpose is to be jealous of the wind, and try not to let them think too much, understand?"

“…… Big brother, but Sheng Weide is in Chang'an!" Wu Anhou said a little embarrassed, "If you are jealous, it is more reasonable to find the main master, right?"

"Sheng Weide is not famous, and now he doesn't even seem to be a showman, even if he is taking care of the family industry, he doesn't have any achievements that can be done, right?" Zheng Guogong looked at him speechlessly, "In this case, if you want to be jealous, what are you looking for him?" He has never seen a girl from the Luo family until now! To be able to get this family business, is it not by relying on the family?! In this case, my Meng family children want to compete with him, so they go to Nanfeng County to get some industrial management, so as to compare the Sheng family, isn't it reasonable?"

As for those who have long brains, they all know that the Sheng family's current status in Nanfeng County, as well as the relationship between the Feng family and the Xuan Yu family as mutual in-laws, even if the children of the Meng family go, they will definitely not be able to please them, it doesn't matter, just like Zheng Guogong said: Young people, when their brains are hot, it's not strange to do something that makes people laugh.

Their Meng clan is flourishing, and there are outstanding children over the years, and there are a lot of gentlemen, good and bad things, smart things and foolish things, all of which are done by people.

Rong Sleeping Crane and his entourage, who were far away in the western Xinjiang, naturally didn't know that the most important hole card hidden by Rong Sleeping Crane was being slowly uncovered by the Meng family, and they were still discussing the choice of Wu Da at the reception banquet: "I thought she would choose Ah Xi." ”

In fact, it was Gongsun Xi who Rong Sleeping Crane wanted to match with Wu Da's master, which could be seen from the appearance of Gongsun Xi, who had not been seen for a long time at the reception banquet, and the fact that his seat was almost next to Wu Da's family.

Even Gongsun Xi, who has always been wearing a green shirt, specially changed into a light blue silk robe that suited his complexion and temperament tonight, with a gilded tortoiseshell belt around his waist, hanging a fish-bit, lotus branch, mutton fat and jade pendant, a square bun on his head, and a white jade bamboo cat's eye hairpin.

His appearance is already delicate, although because of his temperament, he often gives people a gloomy feeling, but after many years of banditry career, he has accumulated some killing momentum in his body, and he does not look weak, but it is a different kind of charm.

Not only Sheng Weiqiao, but after Xuan Yu Feng looked around in the seat, he also whispered to his niece, asking her to choose, she must choose Gongsun Xi: Good looks, just look at the seat, you know that she has one of the best status in Rong Sleeping Crane's mind, who will you marry if you don't marry him?

As a result, Wu Da held his cheeks and looked at everyone present one by one, but finally picked Gongsun Yingdun!

After Sheng Weiqiao and Xuan Yu Feng learned about this result, they felt that the whole person was not very good......

It's not that Gongsun Yingdun is several years younger than Wu Da's family, their aunts and nephews have been talking to Tortoiseshell Island for many years, and they know that the bandits take this kind of thing very lightly, but the woman is a few years older than the man, and it is simply normal compared to Gongsun Yingjiang, who regards the ethics of seniority as nothing.

The point is, I really can't see what Gongsun Yingdun has that is worthy of Wu Da's lifelong entrustment???

This kind of thing is naturally not easy to ask in front of everyone, so after the banquet was over, when he returned to the upper room, Sheng Weiqiao didn't care about changing his clothes, so he immediately pulled Rong Sleeping Crane and said: "How could she fall in love with Ying Dun? Or does Ying Dun have any strengths that are not easy to find, we usually look away?"

"......" Rong Sleeping Crane was silent for a while, and said quietly, "Good girl, why do you think that Master Wu shouldn't take a fancy to Ying Dun?"

Sheng Weiqiao said as a matter of course: "Do you need to say this, Ying Dun is not very good in terms of appearance and talent, and he is not very good in terms of heart and mind...... To put it mildly, although the master of Wu is only a few years older than him, he has been in charge of the Jishan Thieves for a few years, and with such qualifications, shouldn't Ying Dun be the same as looking at half a junior? If he takes a fancy to his godson, he will be almost the same!"

"Good girl, that's the truth. Rong Sleeping Crane said slowly, "Wu Da is used to being the master of his own house, and he didn't think about finding a husband who was happy with each other at this time, just to find a husband for the sake of the future! In this case, why should she find someone who stands out in every way and is deeply trusted and reused? After all, such a person is unlikely to let her endure her in the first place, even if she can temporarily gain the upper hand at this time, in the long run, after the kindness brought by Jishan's return to Shun is exhausted, whether it is me or the husband she chooses, will I continue to tolerate her?"

"It's Ying Dun, he looks very temperamental, but in fact, he bullies the soft and fears the hard in his bones, and he is very obedient after a few beatings, and he is very easy to tame. ”

"In terms of identity, I am a child of the Gongsun family, and I don't seem to say anything about the background of Wu Da's family, the key is that the Gongsun family has a great favor to me, with this, I will have achievements in the future, how can I not treat this family badly!"

"In this way, Wu Da can continue to be the head of the family, and have a guarantee for the future, why not?"

He thought that Sheng Weiqiao would praise Wu Da for his foresight when he heard this, who knew that this little ancestor thought about it and looked at him with a vigilant face: "In other words, you are also outstanding, even the outstanding talents under your hands refuse to let you endure your wife, let alone you?

“…… Well, of course I have a purpose. Rong Sleeping Crane was silent for a moment, and said expressionlessly, "My purpose is ......"

Suddenly, he hugged Sheng Weiqiao and pressed her to the couch, and sneered while undressing her, "My purpose is to let the obedient girl beg me in the tent every day, beg me and beg me again...... You little thing with no conscience, if you sleep with your brother all day long, you will toss your sleeping brother in turn, and I won't give you a long memory today, you are really addicted to playing, aren't you?!"
