Chapter 507: Dark Skylight
"Third Miss, here. The two of them saluted Liang Cheng and asked for peace.
"Well, what about my mother, are you in the house?"
Liang Cheng was first worried about Shen, and naturally asked Shen, and Lianqin and Mohua didn't speak, just nodded lightly in response to her.
After seeing the looks of the piano and the ink painting, Liang Cheng didn't say anything more, and the faces of the two of them looked a little too tired at this time.
After yesterday's incident, the piano and ink painting should have been busy in the Hanging Autumn Pavilion all night until this morning, but even at this time, they haven't gone to rest yet.
Could it be that there is still something to be dealt with in the Hanging Autumn Pavilion, otherwise why don't they rest when they play the piano, or maybe their mother doesn't want to rest at this time? Liang Cheng sighed again in her heart.
After rubbing her eyebrows, and then slowly cleaning up her mood, Liang Cheng walked towards the house, and when the curtain was lifted, Liang Cheng saw the darkness of the room.
"Moke, is that you?"
The woven gold curtains in the room were all lowered at this time, and the bright sky light could not penetrate at all, making Shen's always indifferent voice even colder in the darkness of this room.
"Mother, it's me. "But so what, for Liang Cheng, this is now comparable to the existence of the sound of nature, and the heart that has been hanging has been slightly relieved now. Liang Cheng followed the voice and immediately ran in the direction of the Shen family, "Mother, why did the curtains in the house come down, Mother is sleepy, do you want to take a nap?"
"No, I just want to rest for a while, what about Yong'er? I heard that you took him and Brother Mao to Xiao Yunyu last night?" Liang Cheng had already walked to the side of the blue stone black silver soft collapse that Shen was half-leaning on, and saw her mother and mother said with full exhaustion.
"Well, yesterday I saw that there was some chaos in the house, so I took Brother Mao and Yong'er to Xiao Yunxi, and at this time the two of them were still sleeping there, and they didn't think about it at all. ”
Liang Cheng tried her best to tell Shen at this time about the childish things that happened between Liang Yong and Liang Mao in Xiaoyunyu last night, just to make her mother smile.
And sure enough, as soon as he heard Liang Yong, Shen's expression would slowly relax.
"Yong'er, they are where you are, I can also rest easy, there was chaos in the Hanging Autumn Pavilion yesterday, and I really couldn't take care of Brother Mao, so I could only send him out of the Hanging Autumn Pavilion first, but fortunately, you also took him to Xiao Yunyu later. ”
Although the situation in the Hanging Autumn Pavilion was unknown to Liang Cheng and the people who were outside, the situation outside was clear to the Shen family in the Hanging Autumn Pavilion, so she naturally knew about the matter that Liang Cheng had taken Liang Yong and Liang Mao to Xiaoyunli last night.
"Mother. ”
But since they had already talked about the matter in the Hanging Autumn Pavilion, Liang Cheng bit her lip, and finally couldn't help but ask Shen, "Grandfather, how is it now?"
Shen frowned slightly, closed his eyes tiredly, and didn't speak again for a long time, Liang Cheng saw this, and suddenly fell silent, her mother didn't speak, she stayed quietly, and the whole room was a little scary.
"Your grandfather's condition is not good, Elder Chen has already come to treat his old man yesterday, but the result is not optimistic. ”
But just when Liang Cheng thought that her mother would not answer her question, Shen suddenly opened her mouth again, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she was shocked by the words.
"How can this be, although my grandfather's spirit has been a little bad in the past few days, but the injury is slowly healing little by little, how can it suddenly become like this. Liang Cheng said to her mother in disbelief.
"Your grandfather is already in his prime, and now he is seriously injured, which is an extremely dangerous situation, and Elder Chen has already said that with your grandfather's physical condition at this time, no matter what happens, it is not a strange thing. Shen's voice was soft and light.
But Liang Cheng still hears it so clearly. It was as if every word was ringing in her ears.
Even if Liang Cheng wanted to pretend not to hear, it was simply impossible, so at this time, the room was quieter, so quiet that in an instant, the whole room could be heard falling pins.
What her mother said, Liang Cheng remembered, but she thought that once that extremely dangerous period passed, it would be fine, so she subconsciously left Chen Lao's words behind early.
As long as others don't mention it, then Liang Cheng can forget it forever, but she thinks very well, but life is always unsatisfactory in the world, and at this time, reality is even more ruthless to pour a basin of cold water down, making it impossible for people to hide.
Liang Cheng didn't like this feeling, and she didn't like it at all.
"Now your grandfather is still asleep, wait a while, when your grandfather wakes up, you will take Brother Mao and Yong'er to the Hanging Autumn Pavilion. ”
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.
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 almost made Jian'an into trouble because of the words of the third 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 third 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 third 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 third 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 Cheng, she was even fortunate to witness Tang Menglan's unscrupulousness even in front of the third princess Yang, in front of the third princess who made her feel so stressed in Zhong Qing's opinion, Tang Menglan could actually be so unscrupulous.
The scene at that time, even now, Zhong Qing still remembers it clearly.
Maybe Tang Menglan is the only person who can still make concessions like the Third Prince Princess Yang since Liang Cheng and Princess Changping, but no matter whether Liang Cheng or Princess Changping, they will not be able to tear their faces directly and completely like Tang Menglan and the Third Princess Yang.
Let's not mention that there is Emperor Wen behind Princess Changping, it is impossible for her to ignore Emperor Wen's face, even Liang Cheng has the entire Liang family behind her, even if she doesn't like the three princesses of the Yang family, it is also impossible for her to act like Tang Menglan.
In this way, in fact, Tang Menglan is an outlier in Jian'an.
In today's Jian'an, there will be no one who can be as noble as Tang Menglan, and his father is also a general who guards one side, so he has not been trapped in the intricate power network of Jian'an.
No one has anything to do with the British king, and because the British king is a prince with a different surname, everyone in the court even deliberately keeps a distance from the British king.
