CHAPTER XXXII
The worried Huang family father and son didn't notice that a corner of the dress flashed outside the window, and quietly disappeared into the bamboo shadow.
…… Two days later, Sheng Weiqiao looked at Aunt Zhao in front of her in surprise: "Jian'an is gone? Why is it not?
Aunt Zhao looks very haggard, no wonder, she is the dowry of Princess Gaomi, and Junjun of Jian'an, as the eldest daughter of Rong Qingchu, is also the eldest granddaughter of Princess Gaomi. Although she is a girl who cannot inherit the title, Princess Gaomi has no idea of patriarchy, and has always loved Jian'an Junjun, and Aunt Zhao has always been influenced by it and has always regarded Jian'an Junjun as her own blood and blood.
Especially the Qi family has always taught children, Jian'an Junjun is gentle and demure, without arrogance, and there is nothing that normal people don't like.
At this young age, it has only been a few days since he was out of the cabinet?
Say no, it's gone...... Not only Aunt Zhao was devastated, but even Sheng Weiqiao was surprised: "Is it an illness or an accident?"
The question is so, but Sheng Weiqiao felt that the eight achievements were an accident, after all, the Huang family, the husband of Jian'an Junjun, was not far from the Junwang's Mansion, and this Junjun had always been in good health, and he was not the kind of person who had been lingering on the sickbed, so it was impossible for him to suddenly get any sudden illness that would be fleeting in a blink of an eye.
Sure enough, Aunt Zhao burst into tears and said: "Jun Jun was not careful, he fell into the pond in the garden of Huangfu, and the maids around him didn't know how to drink water at that time, and when he went to call someone to come, Jun Jun was already ......."
"The pond in the Huangfu Garden, isn't there a railing built around it?" Sheng Weiqiao felt a little strange, and couldn't help but say, "And Jian'an is not the kind of person who is not careful, well, how could he fall into the pond?" Not to mention that I remember the mansion of Huang Shilang's family, it is not too vast...... Why would the maid call someone to help her?"
Aunt Zhao just choked up and said, "Originally, the wife of the world has never been very good. The Junjun of Jian'an has to go back to the palace every once in a while to take care of it! At this moment, such a fork suddenly happened...... The princess cried all night yesterday, and said that she didn't know how to explain to the princess's wife? ”
Just begged Sheng Weiqiao to go over and take a look, "Niangniang, you know, the princess Niangniang's body has not been very good in the past two years, but it is because of the king of the county that she has barely survived until now." The slave also knows that it is difficult for you to walk away now. But if you don't go to the palace to help, the slave really doesn't know, what will you do?"
Sheng Weiqiao was angry because he didn't know that Jian'an Junjun told the Huang family father and son about Gongsun Xi's affair with Queen Meng, and then revealed it to Meng Guiyu...... Actually, not to mention Sheng Weiqiao, even Rong Sleeping Crane is not very clear now.
After all, the father and son of the Huang family are not fools, they knew at that time that Rong Sleeping Crane was not easy to provoke, and since they sat down on this matter, they would naturally prevent the traces from falling.
And Rong Mianhe, like Dong Liang, doesn't have much trust in Queen Meng.
Due to the death of several times, he inevitably suspected that the problem came from the queen herself.
But he didn't think about his niece at all.
Gongsun Xi is also responsible for this, because Princess Gaomi personally pushed Queen Meng off the cliff, when he made a statement, he didn't want to say much, so he vaguely brought it over. made Dong Liang and Rong Sleepy Crane think that the only one who knew about him and Empress Meng was Princess Gaomi.
And Princess Gaomi would not tell Meng Guiyu about this.
didn't know at all that the three county monarchs of the Gaomi Mansion at that time were all insiders.
Therefore, Sheng Weiqiao at this moment, his impression of Jian'an Junjun is still the day he entered the door, and he was set off by Yuan Donglai's arrogance and unreasonableness.
At this time, he regretted the early death of this niece, and was also surprised by the suspicious cause of her death, so he nodded: "Auntie, wait a minute, I'll arrange it for the house...... By the way, Lingzhan and Lingguan are both here with me, this is ...... If you don't tell them, you won't even be able to send your eldest sister on her last journey, and when she grows up in the future, how can you not regret it? If you tell them, Jian'an has always been loved by his younger brothers and sisters, but I'm afraid that the two children won't be able to bear it?"
Aunt Zhao also felt embarrassed when she heard this, and after thinking for a while, she said, "Why don't you tell the two princes and grandsons first, and when you go to the palace to see the princess Niangniang, you two will discuss it?"
In this way, Sheng Weiqiao called the steward, arranged the affairs of the county king's mansion, and took Yishan, Ju Li and others to the Gaomi palace by car.
The palace looks not much different from the previous time when Princess Gaomi invited Sheng Lan to quit his wife, although it was deserted, but all the way in, the subordinates performed their duties, but they were not in a hurry.
Aunt Zhao explained in a low voice: "The palace has been presided over by the prince wife all these years, although the prince wife has not asked much about it because of her poor health at this time, and she is afraid that the news will spread in all directions...... So I simply hid it. Now only the people of Xiangji Hall know. ”
Sheng Weiqiao nodded, slightly quickened his pace to Xiangji Hall, and sure enough, the atmosphere in this place was obviously much more depressing.
The little maids standing in the cloister drooping their hands, all holding their breath and lowering their eyebrows, did not dare to come out!
"How is the princess doing now?" Aunt Zhao stepped forward and asked in a low voice.
The maid at the head was blessed first, and then said cautiously: "Niangniang is sitting alone in the pavilion at the back, for a while." ”
Seeing that Aunt Zhao frowned, worried that she would scold, she hurriedly added, "Niangniang said that you are not allowed to disturb...... The slaves and maids persuaded them several times in the past, but the mother was about to get angry, and the slaves and maids were afraid of being angry with the mother, so they didn't dare to go any further. ”
"Niangniang is in the pavilion at the back?" Aunt Zhao frowned when she heard this, but she didn't say that the maids didn't care, she only sighed and said, "You listen to Niangniang's words." ”
Turning his head, he glanced at the waiters around Sheng Weiqiao, and said, "Princess Jun, let's go into the pavilion later, and these few will stay on the shore, right?"
The pavilion at the back of this Xiangji Hall, Sheng Weiqiao was taken by the Qi family earlier, and knew that although the pavilion extended into the lake, as long as he entered the Moon Cave Gate, it was clear at a glance.
And this time I came to the palace, mainly to comfort Princess Gaomi and the Qi family, Sheng Weiqiao nodded: "Aunt Yi." ”
The group walked forward along the corridor, turned the corner, crossed the moon cave door, and saw that in the deserted backyard of this season, standing alone in the pavilion on the lake, sitting on the beauty leaning with her sleeves folded, looking at the lake in a daze, the high-density princess who was indescribably small and lonely.
Although Sheng Weiqiao doesn't have much respect for this mother-in-law, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had a dispute a few days ago over taking care of Rong Ruibin, and it was Rong Sleeping Crane who came forward to settle it, and when she looked at it at the moment, she couldn't help but sigh secretly.
She motioned for Yi Shan and the others to stop, followed Aunt Zhao up the Jiuqu Bridge, walked into the pavilion, and called, "Mother!"
“…… Are you here?" Princess Gaomi stared at the lake, and just when Sheng Weiqiao thought she hadn't paid attention to herself, she suddenly sighed faintly, retracted her gaze, and said in a cozy voice, "Aunt Zhao went to find you?
Sheng Weiqiao didn't know if she was really pretending to be a gesture, but she had come here, and she didn't have to rub salt on this mother-in-law's wound, so she slowed down her tone and said: "What did the mother say? How come Jian'an is also my niece and Mizhen, she has such a thing, and Mizhen can't take a break from her busy government affairs...... Where can I not come?"
"As soon as you say this, I know that either Mizhen hasn't told you yet, or you don't know yet?" the princess listened to it, smiled bitterly, and said, "Why don't you know that the reason why Jian'an broke herself off is that I hope you can let her mother-in-law go?"
"........................" Sheng Weiqiao was choked by this sudden telling for a long time and was silent, and only after a long time did he say incredulously, "What did you say?"
Princess Gaomi raised her eyes and looked at her: "When Gongsun Xi tried to leave the palace with Empress Meng's cheap maid, I helped him, and I personally pushed Empress Meng off the cliff...... Just because I told them not to say it, the three children were filial and considerate, and sure enough, no one told them, including their parents. ”
Later, when she was about to arrive in Ruzhou, the news of Qi Jianxun's death came, Jian'an felt sorry for her mother, and her grandfather, and an impulse stabbed the matter to Meng Guiyu through the Huang family father and son...... At this time, Meng Guiyu didn't know how to know the truth, and contacted the Huang family in private, and when the Huang family's father and son were discussing, they happened to be heard by Jian'an, who personally sent refreshments, that stupid child...... So the stupid boy ......"
When the princess said this, big tears smashed on the placket of her clothes, and she couldn't go on with a choked voice.
Sheng Weiqiao's face was also pale, and he muttered, "There is still such a thing?!"
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were relatively speechless for a while, and the princess beat her spirit and said: "This matter involves the previous dynasty, I know that you can't be the master, I'll tell Mizhen when I go back!"
"Take care, concubine!" Sheng Weiqiao sighed, and didn't want to stay any longer, after all, this matter was indeed as the princess said, it was related to the previous dynasty, and he had to let Sleeping Crane make the decision himself.
She was about to say goodbye, when Princess Gaomi suddenly said, "Kang Zhao!"
Sheng Weiqiao looked at her puzzled: "Mother?"
"Do you know the truth about Mi Zhen's exile back then?" the princess pursed her lips, looked straight at her, and asked softly.
“…… Please also ask the mother concubine for advice!" Sheng Weiqiao's heart jumped when she heard this, and she thought that her mother-in-law was going to solve her doubts, who knew that Princess Gaomi showed a disappointed look when she heard this, and said, "I just want to know, Mizhen's thoughts?"
Sheng Wei Qiao Xin said, what can he think? Just look at his current attitude towards your palace, isn't it clear?
However, after saying goodbye to her mother-in-law hastily, she returned to the county king's mansion, and at night, when Rong Sleeping Crane returned to the back, she said something about Jian'an Junjun in a few words, and saw that Rong Sleeping Crane frowned and didn't say anything, so she asked: "By the way, Mizhen, today's mother asked me one thing: that is, you were the first ...... How did you get out of the country?"
"Good girl, why did you remember to ask this?" Rong Sleeping Crane was unbuttoning his robe, and when he heard the words, he asked with a smile, "I seem to have told you something before?"
Sheng Weiqiao straightened his face and said, "Are you embarrassed to say it? Those previous statements of yours are more like one set of fabrications, but in fact, none of them are true!"
She looked at her husband's face seriously, at this time she had changed her robe, and was kneeling on the couch, standing in front of the screen, the sleeping crane with her clothes untied was facing her sideways, and the candle flame next to her happened to coat him with a soft halo, which made the edge sharpened in the two years of southern and northern wars slightly weakened, and there was no tenderness in the eyebrows and eyes.
At this moment, he looked back at Sheng Weiqiao with a smile and said: "How can there not be a sentence that is true? There is a sentence that must be true, for example, I have traveled thousands of miles from Chang'an to Nanfeng County, and it must be that God wants to marry you to me!"
"Seriously!" Sheng Weiqiao smiled when he heard this, but soon coughed dryly and said, "I have asked about this matter a long time ago, and you have not hidden it from me for a day or two!
