Chapter 525: Ice Slag
Lang Qin personally brought in two cups of Songmeng and handed them to Liang Cheng and Liang Yong, and the mellow fragrance of tea immediately came to Liang Cheng when he lifted the tea lid.
Songmeng really deserves to be the first famous tea in Xiyin, just this tea fragrance has already made people forget to return.
Liang Cheng lowered her head and took a sip of the clear tea in the Dongling Yuyuelan teacup, driving away the cold that had just been brought in from outside, as the later it was getting dark, the lower the temperature, and even the wind blowing around her seemed to be entrained with ice slag.
To be honest, when she just walked outside, Liang Cheng was already very uncomfortable, and the impact of the cold on her was really serious, in such weather, it was better for her not to go out.
Otherwise, it would not be impossible to stop halfway and not be able to walk, after all, with her current physical condition, this is the case.
The spring and summer seasons are fine, and the golden autumn is okay, but only the winter, I am afraid that she will be the most incompatible with this season in the future.
"Madame!"
But just when Liang Cheng was busy climbing up to the kang and holding the hand stove to eat tea, Mo Hua hurried in from outside and said to Shen: "Madam, the old lady has gotten up." ”
One sentence made everyone in the room stunned for a moment, and then Shen got up, and after straightening the hem of his clothes, he spoke to Liang Cheng and Liang Yong: "Since your grandfather has already risen, then Mo Ke, you should quickly take Yong'er to the main room to say goodbye." ”
"Yes, mother. "Now that Old Man Liang has woken up, this Chinese New Year's Eve has officially begun.
The time for Shen to start busy was also up, and after Liang Cheng and Liang Yong went to the main house, Shen first instructed the piano and ink painting to let the big kitchen start preparing the dishes.
Some dishes can be prepared and left warm in the steamer, but some are not, and must be cooked and eaten hot, so the large kitchen, which has been on standby since the beginning, is finally starting to run at full capacity.
But the big kitchen was busy, but in the main house of Heshou Zhai, the people who had been waiting for a long time were still waiting in this outer room at this time, until the call of Old Man Liang came.
"Third master. However, before the old man Liang summoned Liang Cheng and Liang Yong, there was another person who came first, and with the report of the little maids outside the house, Liang Yong was the first person to hurriedly look away after Liang Yong.
"Third brother, you are finally here, such a long time is late, it is really a long time to wait. But if Liang Wan and Liang Yong are happy for Liang Mao's arrival, then Liang Xian has obvious sarcasm in both his expression and tone, and it is still the kind of unhidden sarcasm, looking at Liang Mao who just opened the curtain and came in, it was a burst of sneers.
Liang Mao's recent limelight is still too strong, because of Liang Sixuan's attention, and in the end, he even directly took Liang Mao from Xiaoyunyu to the Hanging Autumn Pavilion, which can fully explain this matter.
And because of this, Liang Sangongzi, who was originally just an inconspicuous son in the mansion of General Zhendong, is now quite a step to the sky in the mansion, just like the second Liang Ji.
After all, they are all unique characters who are loved by Liang Sixuan, and their sense of existence often suddenly overrides others, so that others immediately become the same preference as supporting roles, which really makes those "others" not like it.
Didn't Liang Cheng hate Liang Ji like that before, and the reason was so clear and clear, but it was just because of the word "jealousy".
But fortunately, everything is different now, she will no longer be jealous of Liang Ji, and Liang Ji is no longer the second lady of the Liang family who once set Liang Sixuan's three thousand favors.
But the current Liang Mao is much like the previous Liang Ji. The current Liang Xian is much like the previous Liang Xian.
And the reason why they all hate Liang Ji and Liang Mao so much is just that Liang Ji and they have received the attention that Liang Cheng and Liang Xian once expected so much, although Liang Cheng doesn't really understand what Liang Xian thinks now.
But for Liang Cheng, at least she really looked forward to it, and her father could care about and pay attention to herself as much as he cared about Liang Ji, even if it was just once.
Although she didn't really want to admit it, Liang Xian's current mood, Liang Cheng really understood, so she didn't say anything after frowning.
just turned his head and quietly gave Nian Xiang a look, asked her to find Rong Mu, and sent him to inform her father that Liang Mao had arrived.
Originally, Liang Mao was Liang Sixuan's son who was most concerned about besides Liang Yong, and Liang Mao's every move should have been the first Liang Sixuan to know the situation.
But at this time, just seeing that Liang Mao was not surrounded by Rong Mu, Liang Cheng knew that their father must not know that Liang Mao had come from Hanging Autumn Pavilion to Heshou Zhai.
Otherwise, when Liang Mao came in, there would definitely be Rong Mu by his side, so Liang Xian would not dare to talk to him like this again. And Liang Xian must have discovered this, so he dared to mock his brother so fearlessly.
"Brother Mao, come here. But before even Nian Xiang left the house, Liang Wu, who had been quiet since just now, suddenly spoke.
"Third brother, you're finally here, we've been waiting for you for a long time. ”
And immediately after Liang Mao, the person who spoke was actually Liang Yong, he waved his hand happily at Liang Mao, with the brightest smile on his face, but this also made Liang Cheng next to him coldly startled by him.
Because Liang Yong's voice was not ordinarily loud just now, Liang Cheng was standing next to him, and after being shocked like this, he almost couldn't help but reach out to cover his ears, but fortunately, he endured it in the end.
Otherwise, in the face of the calm and calm people in this room, she will have to be embarrassed by what she will look like when the time comes.
Liang Cheng's heart jumped, and then she lowered her eyes to look at the little tiger beside her, but this glance made her realize that Yong'er was trembling?
Although it was not very obvious, Liang Cheng was very close to Liang Yong, just a little glance, she could also find that Liang Yong's body was trembling slightly, what was wrong? Liang Cheng was surprised and worried, but this was obviously not a good place to ask.
So Liang Cheng was silent for a while, and finally just stepped forward gently, blocking half of the little tiger's body behind her, which was not too noticeable, and it could also make Yong'er relax a little.
Moreover, at this time, there were other changes in the house, so that the attention of other people was suddenly removed from Liang Yong, who had just called out to Liang Mao, so no one noticed Liang Ming's small action. But Liang Yong's eyes didn't take her eyes off Liang Yong for a moment, so she could immediately notice that after there was movement at the gate, Liang Yong's body slowly stopped trembling.
Oh, that's the case, Liang Cheng understood what was going on for a while, but then there was another kind of worry, Yong'er was a little too afraid of Liang Xian, this is not a good phenomenon, do you want to talk to your mother?
"Father. But Liang Xian's thoughts hadn't finished in her heart, and she actually remembered Liang Xian and Liang Xian's greetings in her ears.
Father? Liang Cheng was startled, and without thinking about it, she hurriedly pulled Liang Yong to turn around and salute the visitor, and then the next moment, her father's clear voice came from in front of them: "Are you all here?"
"Back to my father's words, it's all here. The oldest person here is Liang Xian, and he should have stood up and replied at this time.
"Well, that's good, your mother has something to do, so go and say hello to your grandfather first. Liang Sixuan nodded slightly, and then walked towards the inner room on one side, and said to Liang Cheng and Liang Xian on the other.
"Yes. Everyone responded, and then followed Liang Sixuan to the inner room.
Old Man Liang had already gotten up at this time, and after Liang Cheng and the others followed Liang Sixuan in, they saw their grandfather sitting on the big kang in the center with a pale face.
"Father, my son brought Brother Xian and Brother Yong'er to your old man's house to say goodbye. Liang Sixuan took the lead, and Liang Cheng and Liang Yong saluted Old Man Liang in unison.
"No need to be polite, just sit down. Old Man Liang's expression was calm and unwavering, and his tone was also unwavering, so that people couldn't hear any joy, anger and sorrow.
And this is the grandfather that Liang Cheng and they were familiar with in the past, so they didn't feel anything wrong now, it was just after Liang Sixuan sat in the first seat under Old Man Liang's head.
The other members of the younger generation also sat down in alphabetical order.
Among them, Liang Xian's side, Liang Yong sat at the end, and the person in front of him was naturally Liang Mao, Liang Cheng was also a lot more relieved when she saw this, fortunately it was not Liang Xian.
Liang Cheng sat next to Liang Ji, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but this subtle emotional change could not escape Liang Ji's eyes, and when Old Man Liang and Liang Sixuan were talking, Liang Ji suddenly approached Liang Cheng and whispered.
"What is the third sister worried about, Brother Mao'er is next to Brother Yong'er, not the eldest brother, the third sister doesn't need to be so nervous, otherwise if her grandfather and father find out, how can it be good?"
Liang Ji seemed to be very concerned and looked at Liang Cheng and said, but her words did not make Liang Cheng feel a trace of worry.
Liang Cheng pulled the corners of her mouth at the moment, and also replied to Liang Ji with a sneer.
"Thank you so much for the second sister who cares about me so much, but the second sister is afraid that she misunderstood, don't say how can I worry about Yong'er sitting next to the eldest brother, even if I take 10,000 steps back, I am really as worried as the second sister said, then isn't there still a grandfather and his old man and father here, so what turn do we have to say." In the future, the second sister should say these words less, otherwise what should I do if it causes misunderstanding among others?"
Liang Cheng's words were as high-sounding as possible, coupled with the naked sneer at the corner of her mouth, the meaning of this declaration of war could not be more obvious, which made Liang Ji can't help but raise her eyebrows slightly.
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, it was at that time that he came with the 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.
