Chapter 189: The undercurrent is turbulent
Xuan Yu Feng was rarely choked by his niece's question, and was about to answer after thinking for a while, but Sheng Weiqiao had already noticed that something was wrong, leaned over slightly, approached her, and said in a deep voice: "Auntie, you want to lie to me?" β
ββ¦β¦ Well, the fact is that the Shu sisters already know the details of Mizhen, that is, he is actually a disciple of Duke Huan. Hearing the determination in Sheng Weiqiao's tone, Xuan Yu Feng bit his lip and said helplessly, "The two sisters' personalities, Qiao'er, you also know, since they are only allowed to wronged others, there is no reason for others to wronged them!" How satisfied and maintained Mizhen was at the beginning, how much he hated and annoyed him at this time! β
"As the saying goes, husband and wife are one, you will go back to Chang'an with your body in your arms at this time, isn't this a ready-made delivery to the door to vent their anger?!"
"Even if Mi Zhen knows about it in the Western Xinjiang, he will definitely have to hang his heart for you, so why bother? Anyway, you didn't plan to go to Chang'an, did you?! β
"Your grandfather, it is precisely for this reason that he hurried to Chang'an, trying to use the Feng family's worship of the Shu family over the years, to mediate and see if he can try to save the relationship...... In the end, these sisters should not be offended at this time, right? β
Sheng Weiqiao looked at her suspiciously: "Really? How could the Shu sisters know such confidential information?! Before Mi Zhen personally went south to propose marriage to you and was forced by you to confess everything, his relationship with Huan Gong, you and your grandfather, they didn't know! At this time, Mizhen has not left Chang'an for a few years, but why did she leak out?! β
"What are you talking about?" Xuan Yu Feng was a little anxious, "What do you mean that we will confess all the secret truths?" It's as if we, who are elders, are unreasonable and deliberately embarrassed him! You don't want to think about it, how can you marry a pearl in your palm and not figure out the details of others? After you became a mother and had a biological daughter, did you come to the door alone, and you agreed to marry when you looked glamorous? ! We're doing this for your own good, you're so unconscionable with your elbows outward!! β
Looking at her angry appearance, Sheng Weiqiao became more and more suspicious in her heart, and said: "Auntie, when it comes to serious things, you are so nonsense, why do I think you are deliberately diverting my attention?" What are you and Ah Xi hiding from me?! β
Xuan Yu Feng said: "Things have come to this point, what do you think we can hide from you?!" β
When she said this, her face was as usual, but her heart was a little hanging, for fear that Sheng Weiqiao would see the flaw, fortunately, Sheng Weiqiao couldn't have imagined that she would be used as a bait and an abandoned son by her grandfather one day, and naturally she would not figure out what kind of trick her aunt wanted to play with Gongsun Xi "Northern Good Fortune", in the final analysis, it was Weng Ziong's son-in-law over there in Nanfeng County, Old Lady Feng and Sheng Lanci After several discussions, they really couldn't rest assured that Old Lady Sheng, so Old Lady Feng personally went north to stare at the same time as his in-laws. also secretly sent envoys to the western frontier to remind his daughter and granddaughter!
Due to the distance between the western frontier and Nanfeng County, the envoy did not know that Sheng Weiqiao and his party had already left Yizhou City, and they only came to find it two days ago.
The living person claimed to be a servant of the Sheng family and wanted to see Sheng Weiqiao, but the soldier naturally did not dare to make decisions without authorization, so he reported to Lu Shiyu.
And Lu Shiyu learned about Mrs. Sheng's plan from Zhao Shi early in the morning, and Zhao Shi's attitude on this matter was not mixed, he thought that Sheng Weiqiao was rumored to be very favored in his mother's family, if he heard such news at first glance, eighty percent would be stimulated, and if the fetus was endangered at that time, wouldn't it be his own responsibility?
So he ordered the soldiers not to make a noise, but quietly invited Xuan Yu Feng to explain the ins and outs, and wanted Xuan Yu Feng to decide, whether to tell Sheng Weiqiao or not?
The implication is that if Xuan Yu Feng decides to tell Sheng Weiqiao, then no matter what impact Sheng Weiqiao has after hearing this, it is none of his business.
After Xuan Yu Feng heard the news, he was so angry that he couldn't wait to rush to Chang'an immediately, rolled up his sleeves and pressed the head of Old Lady Sheng into Chunbo Lake to be sober and sober!
But when he calmed down, he also agreed with Lu Shiyu's intentions, and decided to hide the matter from Sheng Weiqiao, so as not to irritate her.
In the end, although Sheng Weiqiao has gradually become mature and sensible in the past two years, he has been coaxed to grow up, and he is very firm that his grandfather regards him as a treasure.
Once I learned that Mrs. Sheng loved her, although she was used to it, it was like a mustard to use it...... In the current situation, there is not even a chance to recuperate on the couch, where does Xuan Yu Feng dare to take risks?
Because Lu Shiyu was just an outsider in the eyes of Xuan Yu Feng, he himself had no intention of intervening in this matter. After the two agreed to hide Sheng Weiqiao together, they dispersed, and the Sheng family never sent anyone to come.
But after Xuan Yu Feng left the tent, he inevitably had to discuss countermeasures with Gongsun Xi and Yi Shan.
Gongsun Xi and Yi Shan are both descendants of Rong Sleeping Crane, everything is based on the interests of Rong Sleeping Crane, I heard that Old Lady Sheng actually wanted to use Rong Sleeping Crane and his wife as bait, so he was naturally very indignant.
Yi Shan even asked to take revenge on Old Lady Sheng now, so that he would know what would happen to his own leader!
"Let's think about how not to be cheated now, revenge or something, can we take care of it?" However, this proposal was quickly vetoed by the Feng family, "That's Qiao Er's grandfather, how are you going to take revenge on him?" Aren't his children and grandchildren also Qiao'er's siblings? His own words, he has Sheng Xinzhang to deal with, Qiao'er's father is much more reliable than Qiao'er herself...... Let's not talk about this first, let's talk about going to the north first, since that old guy is a master who is willing to throw his head and spill his blood for the country and the people, and he has to pull his children and grandchildren to do it together, if I am the Meng family or the king of Gaomi, how can I let go of such a useful chess piece?! β
"Isn't King Gaomi waiting to see Mi Zhen's bad luck?"
"I definitely won't let Qiao'er go to Northern Xinjiang...... Who knows if he'll just stab that old guy at the same time?! β
Because she didn't know when Old Lady Sheng's calculation would come, if she persuaded Sheng Weiqiao not to listen to her grandfather when the time came, it might cause her to be suspicious, and the three of them were in a hurry, and it was inevitable that they would be in a hurry if they wanted to come up with a countermeasure in a short time.
In the middle, Yi Shan had a flash of inspiration, and thought of one thing: "When the slave maid served the king of the county two years ago, I heard the king of the county read history, and many emperors and generals were born with an omen. The king of the county said casually at that time that it was because the emperors of the dynasty either didn't need this method, or they couldn't use it. β
"In that case, why not publicize the extraordinary origin of the heirs in the womb of the mother to stir people's hearts?"
"After all, General Huaihua and the county king are also close relatives, if the county king wins the heart of the world, what is the possibility that he will accompany the king of Gaomi to resist to the end and lose the future of the Zhao family?"
Xuan Yu Feng and Gongsun Xi both thought that this move would help Sheng Weiqiao go north, so they confessed on the spot, as for the way to fool Sheng Weiqiao, it was Xuan Yu Feng who came up with it, that is, the Shu sisters already knew the relationship between Rong Sleeping Crane and Huan Guanlan...... Yes, this is Xuan Yu Feng's casual nonsense, the purpose is to take advantage of the Shu sisters' deep-rooted ruthlessness to prevent Old Lady Sheng from using the identity of his grandfather to trick Sheng Weiqiao into canceling his plan to go to Western Xinjiang in person!
These things all happened in the past two days, and in the past two days, Sheng Weiqiao has repeatedly entangled with Lu Shiyu and Cheng Meizhu in order to see Meng Jiaqian, so Xuan Yu Feng has not had time to find an opportunity to say to his niece that "the heir in the womb is extremely expensive". However, Gongsun Xi didn't know, and thought that he had already said it, but Meng Jiaqian asked Sheng Weiqiao why he went north in person, and he felt that the opportunity to build momentum had come, didn't he just say it?
After opening his mouth, he saw Sheng Weiqiao's expression and knew that something was wrong, and at this time, he could only wait for the announcement in Feng's round.
Now that Xuan Yu Feng has come up with the reason he has come up with, he said in his heart that there should be nothing wrong with this statement.
However, Sheng Weiqiao was probably deceived by her a lot, but she was not so easy to be fooled at this time, she narrowed her eyes when she heard this, and looked at her for a moment before she said: "Auntie, when you say this, it makes me think more and more that you are hiding something and refuse to tell me!" β
Xuan Yu Feng's face did not change and said: "Then you say that I hid something and refused to tell you?" β
"You tell me the truth! What happened to Mizhen in the Western Frontier?! Sheng Weiqiao grabbed her and confirmed, "Isn't he dangerous?!" β
Xuan Yu Feng Shi said angrily: "The battle situation on his side is quite stable, the 200,000 Western Xinjiang Army was pressed by him with the Jishan Battalion as a supervising team a few days ago, and on the eve of Ruru's main attack, he had a fight with Ruru's 50,000 forwards...... Well, it's the clothes, jewelry, gold and silver jewelry that you left in Xijiang and couldn't take away! β
"Nanfeng County and Chang'an, your relatives are also very good! I swear! It's done, right?! β
Sheng Weiqiao looked at her intently, she didn't think she was lying, she was very confused: "I still think my aunt is hiding from me, but if these people are fine, I don't seem to have anything to worry about?" β
Thinking so, she grinded Xuan Yu Feng for a while, and when she saw that this aunt refused to let go, she had to give up first and get down to business: "Meng Jiaqian is willing to go to Northern Xinjiang with us, according to my ideas, it is best to take him to Northern Xinjiang." Because the Meng clan can't fall now, and although this person is deeply loved by Meng Boqin, the city government is really not very deep, once he is sent to Chang'an by Lu Shiyu and handed over to King Gaomi, it will be difficult not to confess to the Meng clan! β
"The problem is, Lu Shiyu will not agree to us doing this!"
Xuan Yu Feng saw that she was not pestering herself to get to the bottom of the matter, his heart was a little calm, he calmed down completely, and said: "Then it depends on what you do, after all, everyone's identity is here, don't you look at Lu Shiyu as an 'old lady' to me, isn't it to see your face?" Otherwise, how can a civil woman like me afford to be a serious general? β
"Lu Shiyu is Zhao Shi's confidant, I think his loyalty to Zhao Shi should be more than my father-in-law!" Sheng Weiqiao didn't expect his aunt to do this for him, and after pondering for a while at the moment, he said, "So if you start from Zhao Shi's interests, you may not have any hope of convincing him!" But the world is unpredictable...... If you can't do it......"
She glanced at Gongsun Xi next to her, "Taking Meng Jiaqian to the northern Xinjiang can not only prevent the Meng family from being completely defeated by my father-in-law seizing the opportunity to chase and beat him, but also sell Meng Boqin a face...... What do you think? β
Gongsun Xi thought for a while and said: "According to the observation of his subordinates during this time, at least half of these five thousand horsemen were brought out by the deputy general Cheng Meizhu, no matter when, only Cheng Meizhu will be the first to look forward!" And Cheng Meizhu has a very good relationship with Lu Shiyu, if he follows the example of Meng Jiaqian before Meng Jiaqian and suddenly attacked Meng Cheng, the chance of success will be very high! β
After a pause, he said again, "Of course, after doing that, Cheng Meizhu's identity will be exposed, which is very unworthy." Why don't you testify to your subordinates one day that your subordinates have always been around you, and your subordinates changed their clothes and covered their faces, went to the boss's camp, and directly picked up Lu Shiyu's head! With such a leaderless army, who can't be the deputy general of Cheng Meizhu? ! Under normal circumstances, we can't be suspected! β
Sheng Weiqiao said speechlessly: "This is too risky! Even if you're strong in martial arts, you can't treat everyone else for fools, right? At this time, they are all out of the territory of Western Xinjiang, and five thousand elite cavalry is enough to sweep through the nearby states and counties, who can sneak into the military camp to assassinate the commander? Can you not suspect that it is a thief! And in the barracks, we belong to outsiders, they don't doubt us, can we still doubt each other! Our trip is to ask General Huaihua, this hasn't seen him yet, first kill the general under his command, don't let him know it, once he knows, I'm afraid that the original plan to talk about it well, will turn his face! β
The so-called thousands of troops are easy to get and a general is hard to find, although Lu Shiyu is very far from the rare famous generals like General Zhou, he can be regarded as the best among his peers, Zhao Shi himself is not familiar with military affairs, and he has been able to be the No. 2 boss in Northern Xinjiang for so many years, thanks to the team under his hands, it is inevitable that it will be heart-wrenching to lose any of them.
Sheng Weiqiao was still unsure of Zhao Shi's attitude towards Rong Sleeping Crane at this time, so naturally he couldn't take such a risk.
Xuan Yu Feng reminded her on the side: "But if Cheng Meizhu is exposed, it will also annoy Zhao Shi, right?" It will also descend Ning Weihou to drag him into the water! β
"Then take a step back!" Sheng Weiqiao thought for a while and said, "Aren't Gongsun Sea Lords still in Chang'an?" If LΓΌ Shiyu insisted on sending Meng Jiaqian to Chang'an, because General Huaihua had already promised me to go north in person. Then I have a reason to stop Lu Shiyu from sending too many soldiers to escort Meng Jiaqian! Go back and ask Gongsun Haizhu for their help, and rob people halfway! β
Gongsun Xi and Yi Shan both nodded when they heard this, and said happily: "This method is good!" β
After being ashore for so long, it's finally something familiar!
And at this moment, in the western frontier, Rong Sleeping Crane wiped the blood splashed on his face, listened to the deafening sound of fighting above and below the city, but also showed a sunny smile: "It's been a few years, and I've finally returned to a familiar occasion!" β
