Chapter 141: Duzhi
The thoughts in her heart couldn't be told to Shen truthfully, which made Liang Cheng very depressed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but this is also a helpless thing, if it weren't for the memory of her previous life, then she wouldn't think that Liang Ji would be able to make any waves under her mother's nose.
It's just that the world is so unpredictable, and Yong'er's incident completely knocked down her mother.
And now Liang Cheng knows a little that if the person who took Yong'er out of the house back then was not herself, then maybe her mother would not have collapsed so completely.
She may have become the last straw that overwhelmed her mother.
"What do you think?"
"Ah, oh, it's nothing, it's just that I suddenly remembered that the day after tomorrow was the day when Miss Zhong invited me to the Zhong family for a banquet, and I was a little distracted for a while." The day after tomorrow was indeed the day when Mrs. Zhong held a banquet, but Zhong Qing didn't invite her to go. That day was no less than the end of the day for Zhong Qing, how could she invite Liang Cheng to the banquet?
It's just that it is impossible for Liang Cheng to tell Shen Shishi what she is thinking now, so she casually pulled out this matter.
Shen also asked casually: "Then will you go?" ”
Liang Cheng pondered for a while and said, "Probably not, I plan to invite Miss Zhong out for a gathering today or tomorrow, and then tell her in person that I can't go that day." ”
Originally, Liang Cheng also thought about not going to the Zhong Mansion to attend the banquet, but after thinking about it, she decided not to go. First of all, she couldn't get out of Yong'er's side, and secondly, the banquet that day would definitely be extremely "exciting", and she didn't really want to join in this kind of excitement, so in the end she decided to ask Zhong Qing out instead of going to Zhongfu for a banquet.
Shen didn't say anything about this, but just concentrated on feeding Liang Yong porridge.
And Liang Yong's whole little face was wrinkled together at this time, which was not much better than when he drank medicine!
……
……
At noon, the Zhendong General's Mansion, under the illumination of a large area of golden sunshine, looks extremely lazy and bright, although the autumn equinox is approaching, the temperature has gradually dropped, and it is approaching the cold of winter, but no matter what the season, most of the people at this hour are still between the lunch breaks, so the whole huge mansion is also very quiet, except for the small clouds.
Xiao Yunxi
"Sister Zhong, please drink tea."
Originally, Liang Cheng thought that it would be good to invite Zhong Qing out to get together tomorrow, after all, she still had to think about how to talk to Zhong Qing about that matter, but after Liang Yong took a nap, Shen Shi signaled her to hurry up and deal with all the idle things, and she might be nervous in the next few days. Therefore, as soon as Liang Cheng left Nanlan Creek, the first thing was to ask Nian Xiang to send someone to Zhongfu to invite Zhong Qing to come over.
And Zhong Qing also gave Liang Cheng face, even if it was when she was extremely depressed.
Liang Cheng picked up the Yuebai stone jade tea bowl on the table and motioned for Zhong Qing to taste the white mist tea as well.
Zhong Qing raised it and took a sip as she said, and she was not polite, and said directly to Liang Ming: "Sister Liang, you also know my current situation, so I won't be polite, I don't know if Sister Liang invited me to come over to talk about it today, is there anything I can help with?" ”
This is a polite sentence, but I don't know why, Zhong Qing just said it in a categorical tone, and Liang Cheng was embarrassed for a while.
She didn't doubt it at all, if she really said anything she needed Zhong Qing's help at this time, she would agree without hesitation.
Liang Cheng hurriedly lowered her head and took a sip of tea, and then recalled the wording she had thought of before, and then said to Zhong Qing: "Sister Zhong, you also know that my mother is in charge of several salt families, and she also has quite a few connections in this Jian'an, two days ago, because I heard you inadvertently mention some things about His Royal Highness Qi Ling, so after accidentally hearing some rumors recently, I thought that I should come to talk to Sister Zhong, if there is anything offended, please Sister Zhong not blame." ”
As he spoke, Nian Xiang, who was standing beside Liang Cheng with a tray in his hand, walked up to Zhong Qing, who was surprised, and then handed her a few pages of copied paper on it.
The original letter that Chengwen got from Shopkeeper Cao about Qi Ling's life and deeds from birth to the present, of course, Liang Cheng could not show it to Zhong Qing.
There was a special logo of Chuxi Stream on it, and it was impossible for Liang Cheng to take it out casually without the consent of the Shen family.
Therefore, after asking Nian Xiang to copy it again, it became the few pages that Zhong Qing now holds in his hand. And Zhong Qing didn't react a little after getting them, but after a while, she looked at Liang Cheng with wide eyes, and then at the thin paper full of words on the pages in her hand, and her eyes turned red.
"Thank you."
But in the end, after Zhong Qing's lips curled for a long time, she only spit out these two words.
"Sister Zhong, don't be busy thanking me first, in fact, I didn't do anything." Liang Cheng looked at Zhong Qing, gritted her teeth, and finally said: "Sister Zhong, in fact, there are some things that we don't have to think too pessimistically, even if it will always jump out of our grasp, but as long as you always keep your most important things, nothing is terrible." What's more, things aren't actually that bad? ”
Qi Ling, not Qi Yu.
For Qi Yu, Liang Cheng really won't say a word at all. But if Qi Ling got it, then Liang Cheng really felt that Zhong Qing's future was not dark.
Especially after seeing the letter brought by Cheng Wen last night, Liang Cheng felt that Qi Ling was indeed Zhong Qing's other way of life, if it weren't for him, if it weren't for the accident in the Qingzhou Yan Pavilion, then Zhong Qing would really have to repeat the mistakes of the past.
Thinking of this, Liang Cheng looked at Zhong Qing more and more meaningfully, but Zhong Qing was stunned.
Aren't things that bad?
Zhong Qing lowered her head thoughtfully, looked at the pages in her hand, she looked carefully, slowly, without missing a word, and when she finished reading all the pages, she began to come to her senses again.
"Girl, Miss Zhong will be fine, right?" Qingyu asked in a worried whisper in Liang Yuan's ear.
"No, it won't." Liang Cheng replied with certainty, if Zhong Qing, who had passed through the affairs of Yong'an Palace, would be defeated so easily, then she should really redefine the word "strong".
The room was instantly quiet, Zhong Qing was in a daze next to Liang Ming, and Liang Ming was drinking tea calmly, while drinking and muttering to Qingyu what kind of travel story to tell Liang Yong at night, during this time, the ink in her stomach was almost squeezed out by the little tiger who gradually became energetic.
"Miss!" But Liang Cheng hadn't been discussing with Qingyu for long, when a panicked voice came from outside the house.
Liang Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly stood up and rushed out, so frightened that Qingyu and Nian Xiang didn't react, but Liang Cheng rushed out of the room regardless of it, and then after seeing that the person who was hurrying in the yard was really playing the piano, Liang Cheng's legs were weak, and the person fell backwards.
"Miss, what's wrong with you, don't scare me."
Fortunately, Qingzhu and Nianxiang rushed out later, and Qingzhu was even more quick to help Liang Yuan, who was falling backwards, and her tone was so anxious that there was a cry.
"Third Miss, don't panic, Madam and Fourth Master are fine." And when the culprit who caused all this saw Liang Cheng like this, she realized that she would be wrong, so she quickly explained: "It's Mother Shen, Mother Shen is dead." ”
Shen's mother is dead-
Liang Cheng's pupils, which had already begun to dilate, suddenly shrank sharply, she struggled to lean her still weak body half against Qingqi's body, and asked the red eyes of Lianqin, "What's the matter?" ”
Yes, what's going on, my mother's plan hasn't started yet, why did Shen's mother die?
After Liang Cheng sent away Zhong Qing, who was also groaning, she hurriedly rushed to the bank of Nanlan Creek, and when she arrived, Shen Shi patted her head first, and then instructed her: "Go in and accompany Yong'er, don't leave him, I'm busy today." ”
"Mother, what's going on......... I will definitely take care of Yong'er, mother, don't worry. ”
All the questions were swallowed back by Liang Cheng after she saw Shen's tired expression.
"Okay."
After Shen glanced at Liang Cheng lightly, he asked Mo Hua to take her out. Liang Cheng walked all the way to the main room with a heavy heart, it was still quiet inside, it seemed that Yong'er hadn't woken up yet, and when Liang Cheng walked into the room, she was stunned for a long time when she arrived in front of the sleeping little man who didn't know anything.

"Since yesterday, anyone who has met her will be brought."
"All her exit records in the past few days have been brought over for me to read."
"Who just found her body? In a moment, you can take her confession, and then bring her from all the courtyards where she has stayed since she entered the palace, along with the dispatch records. ”
One order after another was quickly issued from the banks of Nanlan River, and the Zhendong General's Mansion was also in turmoil. Originally, Shen's mother's sudden death would not have caused the current scene, but judging from the appearance of Nanlan River, all the people in the house are guessing that Shen's mother's death was not an accident, but someone did it on purpose.
As soon as this kind of news spread, everyone in the house naturally became nervous, including Liang Yong, who was in the courtyard.
"Sister."
Liang Yong grabbed Liang Cheng's sleeve tightly with one hand, and his big eyes that flickered on weekdays looked at the window with some panic at this time, where no one spoke, but there was a burst of messy footsteps, he looked at her with some anxiety and asked, "Sister, where is my mother?" ”
In Liang Yong's heart, the Shen family is the one who gives him the most sense of security, and in this uneasy time, the first thing he thinks of is the Shen family.
Liang Cheng quietly glanced at the closed window before she smiled slightly: "Yong'er, there are some things in the house that need to be handled by my mother now, and I am very busy now." My mother told me to take care of you and not let you, a little troublemaker, go out and make trouble, so you don't have to think about finding a reason for me to take you out to play. ”
How could Liang Yong still want to play now, his uneasy eyes turned to look at Liang Yuan, and said, "Sister, will you come over when your mother takes care of the matter?" ”
"That's right, so you have to drink the medicine obediently and obediently, otherwise when my mother comes back in a while, I won't sue you well."
Liang Cheng smiled, smiling hard, never letting her worry show the slightest in front of Liang Yong.
But in fact, she was also very worried, but because of Liang Yong, she kept herself from thinking about anything superfluous, otherwise she was afraid that Yong'er would find out about her worries at the most sensitive time, and he would become more and more uneasy at that time.
Liang Cheng tried her best to comfort Liang Yong and comfort herself, but the entire Zhendong General's Mansion is now in a situation where everyone is in danger, and she is afraid that she will accidentally fall into a huge whirlpool.
On the bank of Nanlan Creek, in the study, Lang Qin reported to Shen Shiyu: "In the news found so far, there are indeed Aunt Han's people among the people that Shen's mother saw yesterday, but they met once outside the big kitchen at breakfast, and later met once in the Yanyu Pavilion at the end of the day. But these two meetings, they were in crowded places, and the two of them just said hello and left, and they didn't have a long conversation. ”
At this time, Shen was holding a confession that had just been sent to him, but what was written in it was the record of all Shen's mother's departures yesterday, and Shen said while looking at it: "What about the maid who found Shen's mother's body?" ”
Lianqin replied: "The maid's name is Jingqiu, she is a sprinkler maid, and today it was because she had to go to Shen's mother's house to clean it, so she knocked on the door outside the door for a long time and didn't hear the movement. And as soon as she entered the house, she saw that Shen's mother in the house had ......"
He didn't finish his words, but Shen Shi had already frowned.
Although the cause of Shen's mother's death has not yet come out, the timing of her accident must be too coincidental.
Shen has just finished collecting evidence and is about to start casting his net, but Shen's mother died at this time? If there's nothing strange about it, who can believe it?
Shen squinted his eyes at the piece of paper in his hand, and only said after a while: "This return to the horse pistol is really good, and it is very remarkable that we are caught off guard like this." ”
"Madame, what now?"
After last night, Lianqin naturally knew about Shen's mother, but she had followed the Shen family for a long time, and the major events she had seen were not few, and after the shock, she quickly calmed down, but Shen's mother's death today made her a little helpless.
"Nothing now."
Unlike the helplessness of playing the qin, Shen still said indifferently: "Now that we haven't even caught the conclusive evidence about Shen's mother, the person is dead, what else can we do?" ”
Lianqin was stunned for a moment, "Then it doesn't matter?" ”
Shen smiled faintly, "Yes, don't worry, after the cause of Shen's mother's death is confirmed, I think even if the bank of Nanlan Creek does not move, will Liang Sixuan and his father also let them go?" ”

Bang –
In the Crane Shou Zhai, the old man Liang smashed all the information in his hand that recorded the sudden death of Shen's mother on the bookcase of the purple purlin wood tooth carving Crane Tengyun in front of him, his face was gloomy and terrifying, and he sneered at the old steward of Chengping, who was still gentle and silent at this time: "I knew the danger of the inner courtyard when she was alive before. But now it seems that it is really better than blue, which is much better than back then. ”
Old Man Liang was smiling, but if there were other people at this time, he would definitely be frightened by this laughter, but the old steward Chengping only sighed secretly.
The "back then" that Mr. Liang said, how could this old man who had been with the old man for almost his whole life not know what it was talking about.
Back then, Mr. Liang's backyard was no worse than Liang Sixuan, and the stunning beauties who were sinking fish and geese, closing the moon and shy flowers, were even more of a race, and the intrigue was even more like taking the lives of others.
At that time, Mrs. Liang, the wife of Old Man Liang and Liang Sixuan's biological mother, was murdered more than ten times in this small inner courtyard.
And because Mrs. Liang is not as special as Shen's background, even Mrs. Liang is a famous family, but under the murder of Mr. Liang's concubines who are also from a good background, there are more than a dozen "accidents" that hurt their lives.
If it weren't for Mrs. Liang's good mind and gradually ruthless methods, let alone saving Liang Sixuan, even her own life would have been lost.
But because of this, the relationship between Mrs. Liang and Mr. Liang has become more and more indifferent with the passage of time.
In the end, even under the same roof, everyone is fine.
This is almost exactly the same as today's Liang Sixuan and Shen.
But this should have been a quiet and happy ending for each other, but in the end, when Liang Sixuan had just turned fifteen years old, and Mrs. Liang passed away before Old Man Liang, it was ruthlessly broken.
"Liang Hu, back then, when you were just an ordinary gentleman, when you went to my father alone to propose marriage, my father agreed without saying a word. At that time, I said, '**************, when you encounter a storm, you will turn into a dragon'. His old man valued you, and even when you led the army to the south for the first time, it was my father's right to escort you, regardless of the dissatisfaction of the Son of Heaven at that time. And you have gratefully sworn in front of my father and mother that you will live up to me in your life. But Liang Hu, do you know what else I begged for the Buddha every time in the second half of my life, except for Xuan'er's life and peace? ……… In the next life, never again. ”
In the next life, never again!
Mrs. Liang used a dying sentence to sentence Mr. Liang for the rest of his life a regret that can never be made up.
In the rest of Mr. Liang's life, the old steward of Chengping also saw Heshouzhai's back courtyard corridor full of wind chimes and white jade snow countless times in the middle of the night.
Old Man Liang is different from Old Mrs. Liang, which can be seen by anyone.
But what Old Man Liang thought was that he had done everything with a clear conscience for Mrs. Liang, but after Mrs. Liang died, he was overturned one by one.
When Mrs. Liang was alive, Mr. Liang would never believe the facts, and after Mrs. Liang left, Mr. Liang dug up the buried past one by one.
And after the pain and tribulation, which was already full of dust in Mrs. Liang's heart, were once again bloodily placed in front of Old Man Liang, the legend of Xiyin, who had fought a bloody battle, collapsed.
The sea of corpses and blood in the thousand mountains, the death battle in the Yellow Sea does not retreat, and the corpses on the rivers are everywhere......
The old steward of Chengping, Mr. Liang, has not seen the collapse of Mr. Liang, but on that night, the old steward of Chengping will never forget.
Therefore, when the old man Liang finally drove all the concubines out of the Zhendong General's Mansion, the old steward of Chengping was not surprised at all.
For the backyard, for the tragic battle between women that cannot be seen or heard, but has already penetrated into the cracks of the blue bricks and stones for a long time, Old Man Liang has never underestimated it again.
Later, after the Shen family married into the Liang family, the old man Liang also handed over almost the power to manage the entire mansion to the Shen family.
What Old Man Liang thinks about is that he doesn't want Liang Sixuan to repeat his current regrets.
But providence always seems to make people.
In the invisible reincarnation, the history is strikingly similar again and again, but it is always in constant reincarnation, so that even Old Man Liang laughed at himself countless times in front of Mrs. Liang's tomb.
Even after the outbreak of Liang Yong's poisoning this time, Old Man Liang was the same. But what he never expected was that this was not the end, and even the killing of people actually came? Is this still his Liang family's Zhendong General's Mansion?
Old Man Liang was furious, and the old steward of Chengping on the side let out a long sigh before he said, "Old lady, do you need to send out the shadow guard?" ”
The shadow guards are the clan secret guards that can only be mastered by the head of the Liang family, and they have another name, the dead man. The dead guards of these families are generally hidden in the family and unknown, as long as the patriarch does not give orders, then no one can mobilize them.
Old Man Liang sneered: "If you don't use the shadow guard, I'm afraid that even Mo Ke will not be able to escape next time." At that time, the bloodline of my Liang family will really be dead. ”
The Liang family has always been scarce, until Liang Sixuan's time, it was still only in one line, if it weren't for the fact that after this generation, there were suddenly more heirs, then the Liang family would really be considered a single branch.
And if it weren't for the fact that people like the Liang family were scarce to the point of horror, how could Old Man Liang allow Liang Sixuan to take a concubine back then? If it weren't for the fact that the Shen family hadn't made any moves for several years after marrying into the Liang family, how could the Shen family not have the slightest difficulty after Liang Sixuan took a concubine?
It is because of these coincidences that all the factors that make people helpless have come together, so when the history coincides again, Mr. Liang can't say a word except for silence.
But even if this is already the case, the current descendants of the Liang family are only two people, Liang Cheng and Liang Yong.
On the other hand, isn't this unique? (To be continued.) )
