Chapter 181: Menglan
After Qingyu finished speaking, she also took the rouge and gold-threaded satin dress in her hand again, and got a few closer to Liang Ming, as if this would increase the possibility of convincing Liang Ming. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
But Liang Cheng was just speechless for a while, and after a long while, Liang Cheng simply ordered Nian Xiang directly: "Drag this troublesome little girl out for me." ”
"Yes. It was rare for Nian Xiang to answer so simply, and with a smile in his eyes, he dragged out the green cocoon who was still screaming and saying that Liang Cheng should be wearing that dress.
And Liang Cheng personally chose a moonlight silk blue orchid eight-group embroidered jacket, and put on a gold silk peony dark pattern pleated skirt, and after letting the maids dress up, Liang Cheng was almost ready.
Today is the day when Princess Changping's flower-viewing banquet was held, and this banquet should have been held before the Nanpu Incense Festival, but by coincidence, it has been delayed until now and finally succeeded in holding the banquet. The reason for this, Liang Cheng was not interested in knowing, but the result that she was finally dragged into this troubled water really made her a little unhappy.
Alas...... Sighing softly in her heart, Liang Cheng tried to take a few deep breaths, but in the end she had to slowly step out of Xiaoyunyu and go to the bank of Nanlan Creek to greet the Shen family, and then boarded the carriage and went directly to the palace.
The distance from Dongzheng Street to Xuanyi Gate is not very far, and after Liang Cheng and his party left from the Zhendong General's Mansion, it was less than half an hour, and they could already see the tall and majestic silhouette of Xuanyi Gate.
"Miss, are we going straight to the palace?" asked Nian Xiang outside the car.
"No, let's wait at Xuanyi Gate for a while, I made an appointment with Sister Zhong, and we will enter the palace together. Liang Cheng sat in the car, while answering Nian Xiang, while looking at the forbidden soldiers of Xuanyi Gate, after seeing the chief of the Liang Mansion guard in front of the fight, he had already ordered the forbidden soldiers next to him not to move, and then he only casually looked at the post sent to Liang Cheng by Princess Changping, so he immediately bowed away and let Liang Cheng and his party enter the palace.
After getting together by the Hanshui a few days ago, Liang Cheng and Zhong Qingke made an appointment to meet at Xuanyi Gate today, so Liang Cheng was not busy going in, but only chose an inconspicuous position behind Xuanyi Gate to stop, waiting for Zhong Qing to arrive.
The current hour is just the end of the Shen time, and Liang Cheng didn't want to cause more trouble, so she came a little early, so she was not in a hurry now, just closed her eyes on the carriage to recuperate, or looked through the window screen at the canopy carriages that drove into the Xuanyi Gate one by one.
The person who came was really a distinguished guest, but there was no familiar figure of Liang Cheng among them, which made her still a little relaxed.
"Miss, Miss Zhong is here. ”
When Liang Cheng was looking out the window in a daze, Nian Xiang's voice with a hint of surprise sounded, Liang Cheng paused, and then hurriedly looked intently, only to see that among the Chinese cars that drove into Xuanyi Gate, there was indeed a car driven by Liang Cheng's familiar face, which was the groom of the Zhong family.
"Moke, I've kept you waiting. As soon as Zhong Qing entered the Xuanyi Gate, she also looked around in the carriage, Liang Cheng stopped at the familiar faces of Yiyu, Zhong Qing naturally saw it at a glance, so she asked the groom to drive the carriage over to meet Liang Cheng.
"It's me who arrived early, how can I blame Sister Zhong? Let's hurry into the palace now." Liang Cheng said with a smile.
"Good. Zhong Qing also smiled and nodded in agreement, and then the two teams of people and horses walked towards Princess Changping's Crying Hall together.
The Crying Hall is a palace located in the inner palace, the layout of the palace and the gorgeous extravagance of the building, although it can not be compared with the Zichen Hall and the Linyang Palace, but after these two, the Crying Hall is gorgeous and extravagant, but there is no other comparable to it.
Liang Cheng and Zhong Qing and their entourage walked all the way to the outside of the Crying Hall in the palace unimpeded, before them, there were already a lot of visitors, and there were even people Liang Cheng knew, it seems that Princess Changping's face is really not small.
Looking at the distinguished guests in front of her and the bustling banquet, Liang Cheng sighed in her heart again, she was already so careful, but who was provoked, she was still dragged into the water.
Which of these people in front of you is not a refined character?
Dealing with them, you have to mention the spirit of one hundred and twenty points, otherwise if you are not careful, you will only be waiting for Liang Cheng to be sold and help others count the money to get the result. She is not a smart person with great wisdom and strategy, this is what Liang Cheng has known for a long time, so she doesn't like to deal with these elves very much now.
When Zhong Qing conveyed Princess Changping to invite Liang Cheng to the banquet for the first time, Liang Cheng refused without hesitation because she knew that at that time, it would definitely only be a gathering of these sons and ladies of the family, and she was among them, and it was completely a trivial existence.
This made Liang Cheng really unhappy, if anyone was forced to deal with other people for a few hours, no one would like it.
What's more, the host of this banquet is very hostile to her, although Liang Cheng doesn't know how it came about.
Therefore, Liang Cheng really didn't want to come to Princess Changping's flower-viewing banquet, but Princess Changping just wanted to drag her into the water, and she had already asked Zhong Qing to go to Princess Changping and politely refused.
But Princess Changping didn't give up, and personally sent an invitation to Liang Cheng to the banquet in front of so many people.
Such insistence on stubbornness really surprised Liang Cheng and gave her a headache, after all, if Princess Changping was angry with her and forgot about her, it would mean that Princess Changping didn't take her to heart anymore.
But now it seems that this princess of Changping is extremely "worried" about Liang Cheng!
Thinking of this, Liang Cheng couldn't help but sigh again in her heart, but she didn't show anything on her face, she just entered the Crying Hall with Zhong Qing, and then before the others noticed them, she first chose an unobtrusive small stone table and sat down.
"It's only the beginning of the unitary time, presumably Her Royal Highness Princess Changping will have to wait a little longer to come, after all, the people haven't come yet, we may have to wait a little longer. Zhong Qing smiled at Liang Cheng.
"It's not surprising that the main character is meant to wait until the end to make his appearance. These are all trivial things, Liang Cheng doesn't care, she replied to Zhong Qing quite jokingly.
That's true, but others aren't necessarily as patient as you are. ”
Zhong Qing said meaningfully, and then his eyes quietly fell on a girl who was surrounded by many people in the center of the field at this time, and when Liang Cheng also followed her gaze, the thin moon eyebrows were slightly raised.
"She's back?"
"Well, Jian'an, who just arrived yesterday. Zhong Qing replied in a somewhat inexplicable tone.
"What about King Ying?" Liang Cheng asked with some hesitation.
"I arrived in Beijing yesterday. When talking about the King of England, Zhong Qing's voice finally sank, and Liang Cheng on the side did not look very good at this time, that is the King of England! He is one of the only three kings of the opposite sex 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 for Xiyin throughout the year, and he is the greatest hero who has preserved the peace of the West 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.
It's just that Liang Cheng is very jealous of her, but the person who is even more jealous of her is Zhong Qing.
"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 in 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 incident back then might not have been so simple as it would have subsided." ”
Liang Cheng said directly, but Zhong Qing was still silent.
At this time, it is the last bit of the sun's remaining warmth, and the sun is the warmest when it falls. The wind, blowing gently, blew the rustle of the leaves of the willows, and gently echoed beside the stream, the clear water of the clanging dongdong.
And the peach trees in the middle of summer, now the peach blossoms have long withered, at this time only the full branches of green, swaying slightly in the orange sun and wind, and also in this peach forest full of green, 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 when they fall.

……
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...... Qi Lan's mother, it was at that time, that she 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 Liang Yong's life, and she knew everything.
