Chapter 360: Growing Old

"Hmph, there aren't many people you want to see, but the people you don't want to see always love to come to you. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Tang Menglan's tone suddenly turned cold, Liang Cheng raised her eyebrows, and looked at her line of sight with some surprise.

When she saw the familiar figure at a glance in the golden hairpin sideburns, even Liang Cheng was a little speechless.

Princess Changping's departure banquet, the people invited were naturally the children of nobles who were famous in Jian'an.

Among them, it naturally includes Pang Taiwei's daughter-in-law, Pang Ying, the fifth lady of the Pang family.

And at this time, the person who was fortunate enough to make Tang Menglan so unhappy was naturally this Miss Pang Wu.

"You and her are really fateful, didn't I hear you talk about it last time, did you also meet this Miss Pang Wu at the banquet in Wang Ge's hometown? ”

"Can you not gloat like this?" Tang Menglan said angrily.

"No, you can't. ”

Liang Cheng said a little funny: "I don't know who it is, just now I have been burying me, now that I have a chance, how can I not seize the opportunity and bury it back?"

"Liang Cheng, why are you so .........?"

"You've got a great relationship. ”

When Liang Cheng and Tang Menglan were arguing, the voice of Princess Changping suddenly came from the side.

"Are you a cat, and you don't make a sound when you walk?"

Tang Menglan was startled by the voice of Princess Changping suddenly interjecting, and said unceremoniously to her at this time.

However, in view of the fact that the two of them had not been polite in the past, Princess Changping said to her without even moving her eyebrows at this time: "You are so emotional that you didn't even hear the voice of the palace maid asking me to say goodbye, can you blame me?" It's obviously your own fault." ”

"What's my fault, it's that you have bad intentions, if you are above board, why don't you send someone to inform you before you come?"

"Oh, I'll have to tell you in advance where I'm going to the banquet in my Dawn Palace. Tang Menglan, why is your face so big?"

"Hey, Changping, there is an old saying, the master is as he pleases, why don't you even understand such ordinary etiquette, is it possible that you usually read books in vain?"

"Yes, then why are you different from what I've heard? How do I remember that the guest is the host?"

"That's your mistake. ”

"It's you who is wrong!"

It's just a trivial matter, these two people can quarrel like this, and Liang Cheng is also speechless.

But what is even more speechless is that the way to leave the small bridge they are on has been occupied by Tang Menglan and Princess Changping.

Even if Liang Cheng wanted to get out of the house quietly, it would be impossible to accomplish it.

As for those under the bridge, who had already been attracted by the quarrel between Tang Menglan and Princess Changping, at this time, they all listened to what they were arguing with their ears straight, and on the other hand, they did not squint, as if they couldn't hear such a loud quarrel at all.

"I said, two of you, why don't you change places and quarrel again? Otherwise, if you continue like this, the whole banquet will be attracted by your quarrel, isn't that right?"

In the end, Liang Cheng couldn't stand the fact that more and more people moved towards the small bridge, and kept scanning them with her spare eyes, so she finally interrupted the quarrel between Tang Menglan and Princess Changping, and said with a headache.

"Hmph, Yuxin, let's go. ”

After Liang Cheng's reminder, Princess Changping also found that there were more and more people around her, and understood that she had just lost her manners, but she blamed Tang Menglan for all this, so after glaring at Tang Menglan hard, and Tang Menglan unceremoniously replied to the knife, Princess Changping left the bridge with many palace maids and grandmothers.

As for Liang Cheng and Tang Menglan, after the trouble just now, they naturally won't stay here anymore, and after Princess Changping turned around and left casually, the two of them also left in the other direction with the maid and mother-in-law.

"You too, since you already know it, maybe this is the last time you and Princess Changping will meet, why are you arguing so fiercely just now? Could it be that this is how the two of you are reluctant?" Liang Cheng looked at Tang Menglan amusedly and said.

"Bah, what is reluctant, who would be reluctant to her. ”

Tang Menglan said with disgust, but his eyes involuntarily glanced in the direction where Princess Changping left.

Liang Cheng sighed in her heart, after all, she was not unconscious, this farewell, when she saw her again the next day, she didn't know what year and month it was, what would they be like with each other at that time?

They are just duckweed in the great river of time, and in the face of this huge catastrophe in the world, there are too few things they can do.

"Look, they're coming. ”

"Where?"

The scene was originally quite noisy and orderly, but I didn't know what was going on, but it suddenly became faintly turbulent, waking up Liang Cheng and Tang Menglan, who didn't know what they were thinking, and looked in the direction of the sound.

But maybe it's better not to look at it, because this glance nailed Liang Cheng in place, and even wanting to move his fingertips seems to have become a difficult thing.

At the stone corner lamp at the entrance of the banquet, there were many figures walking in at this time, but the two at the forefront were Liang Cheng and Tang Menglan, who were too familiar to be familiar with - Qi Ling and Qi Yu.

Today, both of them can be said to be dressed up to attend, among which Qi Yu needless to say, he likes to be the one who attracts attention wherever he goes.

But Qi Jue is different, he is usually an extremely low-key kind of person, so low-key that he seems to be almost eager for everyone to not see him, so it is extremely rare for him to attend in full costume at this time.

But whether Qi Yu is still as eye-catching as before, or Qi Jue, who is becoming more and more handsome and upright today, has not been able to cause the slightest wave in Liang Cheng's eyes.

At this time, in Liang Cheng's eyes, only one person's figure can be reflected.

At this time, it is the last bit of sunlight outside the house, and it is the warmest when it falls. The wind, blowing gently, blew the rustle of the leaves of the willows, and gently echoed in the ears, like the clear water of the tinkling dong.

And the peach trees in the middle of summer, now the peach blossoms have long withered, at this time only the dry branches remain, swaying slightly in the orange sun and wind, and it is also in this street full of dry peach trees, a peach tree that is already very old, and life is about to come to an end, the peach tree is full of fog and flowers, as if the peach blossoms are colorful.

……

……

During the juvenile reign of Emperor Wen, a great war broke out between Xiyin and Houshu, and it was this great war that made Liang Hu, the general of Zhendong in Xiyin, begin to show his edge and amaze the world - Liang Hu led the only 100,000 troops left in Xiyin at that time, repelled the wolf army of Houshu, and invaded Shu nearly thousands of miles away, forcing Houshu to take the initiative to negotiate peace.

At that time, although Xiyin was like a rainbow at that time, but in fact, the national strength was extremely weak, and it was really a fantasy to take advantage of this to annex Houshu. Emperor Wen knew this very well, so this war between the two countries provoked by Hou Shu first, and finally ended with Hou Shu's initiative to negotiate peace. After many unequal treaties were signed in Houshu and a prince was sent to Xiyin as a proton, the war was completely quelled.

As for the lord of Dongyu County...... Chu Gu's mother, that is, at that time, arrived with Proton.

Concubine Meng is one of the four concubines of the first emperor, and the queen of the first emperor has only one in her life, and that is Empress Yuan Houzhen. After Empress Zhen's red face and early death, the first emperor did not establish a new one, and took charge of the power of the six palaces, but in the end, she was the favorite concubine of Emperor Cheng, Li Guifei.

Li Guifei is a person who is authoritarian and domineering, and has great ambitions, and has always wanted to meddle in national affairs, and when the first emperor was critically ill, she conspired with the imperial doctor to falsely announce the edict, and deceived all the adult princes into the Guangming Palace, and poisoned them all.

In the end, Li Guifei and her father and brother also launched the Chengdemen Mutiny, wanting to establish his three-year-old son as the emperor, if it weren't for the fact that at the last moment, Concubine Meng risked her life to rescue the widow of Empress Yuan Houzhen - Emperor Wen and King Li, who were only eleven years old at the time, and King Li, so that the three princes had a reason to fight back, then it is estimated that Li Guifei's poisonous plan would have been successful.

It's just that after everything was settled, people suddenly discovered that Concubine Meng's eldest son and youngest son had all died in the conspiracy in Guangming Palace.

And these are also so profound and clear in Liang Cheng's previous life, on the eve of his father and mother being beheaded.

Emperor Wen died, Emperor Huai ascended the throne, and compared with Emperor Wen's name of Mingjun, Emperor Huai's cruelty and mediocrity are even more ugly.

All those who had offended him were dismissed from office and sentenced to prison within a month, and none of them were spared.

Among them, although the worst cannot be regarded as the Liang family, after Liang Sixuan was convicted of capital crime and imprisoned, and the Shen family was also convicted of insulting Emperor Huai and Shen Yunchong's secret troublemakers, Liang Sixuan used the last strength of the Liang family to save their lives, and she knew everything.

And speaking of this, we can't help but talk about the King of England, Liang Cheng's appearance at this time is not very good, that is the King of England! He is one of the only three kings with different surnames in Xiyin today, although the power is not comparable to that of King Li, but the King of England is also the overlord of the defense line of the Xiyin Sea with 50,000 sea divisions in his hands, and he has blocked countless invasions of the sea invaders throughout the year for Xiyin, and he is the greatest contributor to the preservation of peace in the western territory.

Such a hero, no matter who it is, will not ignore it and cannot ignore it, Liang Cheng is naturally the same, but she looked at Zhong Qing in front of her, but she began to worry about her a little, after all, the daughter of the king, that is, the girl who is now being surrounded in the center of the field, almost became Qi Xuan's wife.

The British prince has a lot of heirs, but what he loves the most is his youngest daughter Tang Menglan, and Tang Menglan, as the daughter of the British king, is already the proud daughter of the sky, not to mention that she has been loved by the British king, and her personality has been raised a little rough since she was a child.

But anything that Tang Menglan likes and wants, whether it is a person or a thing, there is almost nothing that cannot be obtained.

And it is such a proud daughter of heaven who wants to be windy and rainy, and her personality is still a little rude, but in front of Emperor Wen and even Concubine Meng, she is quite loved, and her Chinese emperor will put it aside, after all, there are too many things to consider in the emperor's heart, in terms of the importance of the British king to the Xiyin Sea Realm, that Emperor Wen's love for Tang Menglan is only because of the British king.

But Concubine Meng is different.

In addition to Chu Gu and Liang Cheng, the juniors who can get into the eyes of Concubine Meng, now Liang Cheng only knows a Princess Changping and a Qi Jue, and the rest is only Tang Menglan, the youngest daughter of the British King.

After all, if Tang Menglan is really as the outside world says, she is just a proud girl with a noble status and a brutal personality, then how can she be favored by Concubine Meng and her old man? How can she make Concubine De and her old man have the idea of marrying Qi Ling and Tang Menglan?

Although in the end, Tang Menglan made Jian'an almost full of trouble because of the words of the second princess Yang, and her relationship with Qi Ling failed to take shape in the end, but it only made Concubine Meng have such an idea, which can show that Tang Menglan is not what outsiders say at all.

"Back then, the second princess said, 'This woman is a little rude', so that Tang Menglan, who had already nodded and agreed to have a relationship with His Royal Highness Qi Xuan, made Jian'an a storm overnight, not only ran to His Majesty to cry, but also 'coincidentally' met Princess Li, who has always been good friends with Princess Ying, in Xiaoyu Temple, and was so aggrieved that she cried bitterly on the spot, and then went into the palace with her mother, Princess Ying, to ask for peace to Concubine Feng, and she also cried in the palace of Concubine Feng......... It's just a short day, and the entire Jian'an is rumored that the second princess doesn't like Tang Menglan, and even bullies her as a mother-in-law, and finally makes Feng Guifei find a reason to have a seizure, and even Concubine Hui has been snubbed by Emperor Wen for a long time, and the second princess has not even taken another step out of the palace gate for a long time. ”

Liang Cheng looked at Zhong Qing, who was silent, and continued: "After that, if it weren't for the sudden swarming of the Haikou from the west, which caused the war in the sea to break out, Princess Ying and Tang Menglan would not have hurried back to the King of England, and the matter back then might not have been so simple to settle down." ”

This matter was something that even Liang Cheng, who was at the gate of the Liang family at that time, had heard of it, let alone Zhong Qing.

Compared with Liang Ming, she was even fortunate to witness Tang Menglan's unscrupulousness even in front of the second princess Yang, in front of the second princess who made her feel so stressed in Zhong Qing's opinion, Tang Menglan could actually be so unscrupulous.
