Chapter 195: Invitation
"The British princess invited her mother to come over to the house?"
On the banks of Nanlan Creek, Liang Cheng looked at Shen with an incredulous expression, a little incredulous at what she had just heard. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Well, the post I just received in the morning. Compared with Liang Cheng's shock, Shen's expression did not change at all, and he was still so indifferent, as if the sentence just now did not mean that the British princess sent an invitation, but just the usual acquaintances, such as the invitation sent by the Wang family.
"Mother, you and the British princess have nothing to do with each other on weekdays, and the current situation in Jian'an is not right, how could the British princess suddenly invite your mother to the British palace as a guest at this special moment?"
Liang Cheng felt that there was something wrong with this whole thing, and the British princess was not simple, of course Liang Cheng hoped that her mother would not accept this invitation, but Shen said lightly: "I have asked the people from the British palace to go back and spread the word, saying that I will definitely visit when I arrive." ”
"Mother!" Liang Cheng looked at Shen in disbelief, "At this time, the situation in Jian'an is unstable, and my mother should not go to the appointment of the British princess for the time being, and wait for His Majesty's situation to stabilize a little more and then say, isn't it?"
Liang Cheng has always known that the Tang family in the British Prince's Mansion is not simple, and at this time, the British princess suddenly invited the Shen family to the British Prince's Mansion for a gathering, no matter how you look at it, Liang Cheng can't rest assured, but her mother is still the same as usual, with a cold face, and she is not moved by Liang Cheng's words at all.
Shen lowered his eyes, flipped through the scroll in his hand and said, "When that time comes, what the Princess wants to say to me at this time, I am afraid that I will never know again." ”
Liang Cheng was stunned for a moment, but immediately said again: "That's better than going on an adventure now.........
"Adventure?" Shen finally raised her eyes to look at Liang Cheng, she smiled faintly, "In this Jian'an, I really don't know where I can't go, and where I can go 'adventure'." ”
Shen's beautiful face and majestic appearance, not angry and self-assured, whether it was Liang Cheng, who only knew cowardice and retreat back then, or herself who was desperate now, she envied her the most, and now Shen's just such a light and shallow sentence made Liang Cheng suddenly feel a little funny.
Yes, in this Jian'an, who else can make the mother bear the word "risk", even if it is the British Palace, it can't deter the mother. At this time, the situation in Jian'an is indeed a precursor to turmoil, but under the lock dragon gate, Qi Huai has been placed under house arrest in the East Palace, even if the current emperor is really ill, then the throne of Xiyin will no longer be his, unless there is a rebellion.
Only when Qi Huai rebels and raises troops into the palace, the locked dragon gate will be opened again, and the throne of Xiyin will fall into his hands again, but now there is Concubine Meng sitting in the palace, and the king of England is sitting in Jian'an, and there are three princes above the court to stabilize the court situation.
Jian'an's fluctuation at this time is just because after the accident in the East Palace, Emperor Wen immediately fell, which caught everyone off guard, and after two days, everyone will calm down, and then they can find that in fact, the current situation is no more obvious.
The crown prince Qi Huai was placed under house arrest, and Concubine Feng Guifei was also ordered to be confined by Concubine Meng, but Concubine Hui and the second prince Qi Cheng were able to serve in Zichen Hall at this time.
Although Liang Cheng is not smart, she is not stupid, at this time, when she looked at Shen Shifu lowering her eyes again and moving her attention back to the scroll in her hand, Liang Cheng exhaled softly, she was really blind.
Now that the situation of Jian'an has already settled, the next lord of the East Palace is definitely the second prince Qi Cheng, or if Emperor Wen can't survive this time, then Qi Cheng can even skip the title of the prince of the East Palace, and he can directly ascend the throne.
Although the course of many things in this life has changed beyond recognition in the previous life, the original result is the same. But at the same time, these results also indirectly changed the outcome of some other things, just like the withering of the Liang family.
Liang Cheng has slept very well at night recently, and on the day when the locked dragon gate of the East Palace has been lowered, Liang Cheng has never had nightmares in her sleep, and those once dilapidated and mutilated pictures have become vivid and gorgeous.
The nightmare no longer exists, and Liang Cheng naturally cherishes this hard-won happiness very much, so she has been a little too cautious recently, especially when she heard that the British princess suddenly invited the Shen family to come over to talk about it, her reaction would be so big, and she would think that the British princess was going to be unfavorable to the Shen family.
But Liang Cheng forgot that in Jian'an, who could be unfavorable to the Shen family Mingyue? Except for Concubine Meng, I am afraid that there is no one else, even the British Palace.
Three days later, the Great General's Mansion in the east of the town.
"Yong'er, come over quickly, it's not early, don't make any more trouble. On the bank of Nanlan Creek, there was a slight helplessness in Shen's eyes, and she looked at Liang Yong, who was hiding behind the screen and couldn't come out, and her forehead had begun to ache faintly.
This little man is good at everything, why is he so stubborn about this? Shen Shi looked at the same helpless face next to him, and just wanted to say if it was just like that, when suddenly there was a very happy voice from outside the house, "Third Miss." ”
Liang Cheng is here!
The indifference on Shen's face suddenly melted like a snowflake, turning into a shallow smile, after the ink painting had just opened the coral and the jade curtain, and Liang Cheng stepped into the room, Shen had already walked out of the room, and reached out to take a robe from the hand of the piano, and gently put it in Liang Cheng's arms, who had not yet reacted, and said lightly: "I'll go and see if it's ready outside, you go and help Yong'er change into this dark red wisp gold brocade jacket." It's not early, so remember to move faster. ”
After speaking, without waiting for Liang Cheng to look dumbfounded, Shen went straight out with the hand that played the piano.
After a long time, after Nian Xiang couldn't help but call Liang Cheng softly, Liang Cheng let out a long sigh, smiled bitterly and walked into the back room, and sure enough, he saw that the little tiger was still hiding behind the screen.
And then after a long time, Liang Cheng led Liang Yong, who was reluctant with beads of sweat on her forehead, out of the main house, and met with Shen, and then the group took a sedan chair to the second gate to board the carriage and drove to the British Palace.
Along the way, Liang Yong was also unhappy for a long time about the dark red gold jacket on his body, but Shen and Liang Cheng ignored him, and the little tiger was also sulking for a while, and then he was bought by a box of pastries brought by Shen and Lianqin.
When he was about to arrive at the British Palace, the little tiger, who had already eaten several plates of pastries by himself, jumped up and down again, and ran to this side of the car window to look at it for a while, and then ran to the car window to look at it, and he was very busy along the way.
And Liang Cheng looked at Liang Yong, who was so energetic, originally because of the gloomy mood of having to go to the British Palace, but it was a lot better for a while.
Originally, Liang Cheng didn't agree to Shen's invitation to visit the British Royal Mansion, although she already knew that there would be no danger in this invitation, but after all, the British Royal Mansion was still very special, and if she could not have anything to do with them, it would naturally be the best.
But the most important thing is that Liang Cheng has seen Tang Menglan's rudeness and unreasonableness, although it was not for her, but I saw that she dared to do this to Princess Changping, so after she disobeyed her wishes, did she have to suffer from her rudeness and willfulness?
If the mother really has a relationship with Princess Ying in the future, then the opportunity for her to meet Tang Menglan can only increase day by day, and then she can only be endlessly tortured for herself. Although she is not afraid of the little overlord of the Tang family, this kind of trouble has always been disliked by Liang Cheng.
Therefore, regardless of whether she is public or private, Liang Cheng doesn't want her mother to have any relationship with Princess Ying, but even if she is confused, her mother and her disagree with her.
For the British Palace, the mother seems to appreciate it very much. For the British princess, the mother also seems to be very willing to make friends, although in the past, because the British princess was stationed in Yanmeng City with the British king all the year round, the two almost never met. And even if the British princess finally returned to Jian'an once a year, but because of the extremely short time, under the hurried arrival of the British princess, the Shen family and her have always only had a few faces, and as for deep friendship or anything, there is always no chance.
This time, the rare British princess can stay in Jian'an for so long, and she suddenly sent an invitation to the Shen family, hoping that the Shen family can go to the British palace to talk about it, so how could the Shen family refuse?
Even if Liang Cheng doesn't know these things very clearly, the door is always clear, so when she persuaded the Shen family that day, Liang Cheng was a little excited, afraid that her mother would only care about admiring the British Prince's Mansion and forget to guard against others.
After all, Liang Cheng and Tang Menglan gave each other a really bad impression, which made Liang Cheng always feel that there was something wrong with Princess Ying's sudden invitation to her mother at this time.
Moreover, Liang Cheng didn't want the Shen family to have a deeper relationship with the British princess, so naturally she didn't want to have any chance to meet Tang Menglan again, but just when Liang Cheng had this respectful attitude towards Tang Menglan, her mother told her to prepare well, and when she went to the British Prince's Mansion to make an appointment, when she wanted to take her and Liang Yong together, God knows what kind of mood Liang Cheng was in.
I'm really afraid of something!
After Liang Cheng rebelled against the Shen family to no avail, and finally had to accompany the Shen family to the British King's Mansion for an appointment, she really lamented for a long time, and finally packed up her mood and came to the British King's Mansion with the Shen family early this morning.
But no matter how Liang Cheng cleaned up her mood, when she was getting closer and closer to the British Palace, Liang Cheng still couldn't help but feel gloomy, if it weren't for Liang Yong's lively and lively disrupting her bad mood at this time, then I really don't know how depressed Liang Cheng was.
"Madame, here we are. When Liang Cheng just looked at Liang Yong and smiled, the carriage suddenly stopped, and then the sound of ink painting came from outside the car.
"Well, let's go and hand it over. Ignoring Liang Yong, who immediately made a bitter face, and Liang Yong, who was becoming more and more curious, still closed their eyes and leaned on the large gray-green piping bright satin flower pillow Shen commanded softly.
"Yes. After answering the ink painting outside the carriage, he also took out a post from his bosom and handed it to a guard next to him, who took it with both hands, and turned to walk towards the deacons standing outside the gate of the palace.
But at this moment, the two majestic vermilion lacquer doors of the British Palace's Mansion were suddenly opened from the inside, and a heavy muffled sound sounded loudly, shaking the deacons who were looking at the vast team of Shen and Liang Cheng outside the door, and who were screening something, suddenly stood with their eyes and noses and noses and hearts.
"Dare to ask, but the carriage and horse of Mrs. Liang of the Zhendong General's Mansion?"
Just when there was a sudden silence outside the door of the British Palace, an old man in extremely ordinary clothes came out of the gate, and asked the Liang family guard who had just walked under the stone steps with a smile.
"Exactly, this is my wife's post, and I would like to ask the old gentleman to look at it. The guards of the Liang family did not dare to snub this old man who actually walked out of the main gate of the British Prince's Mansion comfortably, he lowered his eyes slightly, and handed over the Shen family's post with both hands.
The old man took it, although his face was still full of smiles, but after reading the post, the old man said to the Liang family guards: "The princess has been waiting for Mrs. Liang for a long time, please enter the house quickly." ”
As he spoke, the old man waved his hand, and the door of the British Prince's Mansion was completely opened, and the Liang family guards also turned around and walked back quickly, and after whispering a few words to Mo Hua, Mo Hua walked to the carriage and reported to Shen Shiyu: "Madam, let's enter the mansion." ”
"Hmm. Shen replied lightly, and the mighty carriage and horses started again, heading towards the British Palace, but just as the carriage was about to enter the gate of the British Palace, Liang Cheng saw a face that had never been unfamiliar in his memory through the carved velvet curtain.
Tang Yi!
How could this old general be here?
Liang Cheng was taken aback, but before she could react, Shen suddenly shouted loudly to stop the carriage, and then with Liang Cheng's hurried support, Shen actually got out of the carriage and saluted Tang Yi is slightly: "General Tang, why did you come out to greet you in person, it was Mingyue's rudeness." ”
The old general Tang Yi didn't dare to accept Shen's salute, and after avoiding it sideways, he laughed and said: "Mrs. Liang, don't torture the old man, but I just happened to go out of the house to the palace, but I happened to meet the steward who came to greet Mrs. Liang on the order of the princess. ”
The old general laughed, next time it can't be like this, otherwise the old man in the house and my mother will know about it, and then Mingyue will not be punished to kneel in the ancestral hall and confess to the ancestors. ”
Shen seemed to have great respect for this old general Tang Yi, and his tone was so humble. (To be continued.) )
