Chapter 285: Plum Blossom Beads

Zhendong General's Mansion

When Liang Cheng returned to Liang Mansion, Liang Sixuan still did not come back, but the sky happened to be completely dark, the night fell, and when the lamp was held, a bright light began to shine in the mansion. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Miss is back, the fourth master is waiting to fall asleep. ā€

As soon as Liang Cheng stepped into Xiaoyunxi, Nian Xiang greeted him with a smile and said.

"Did you have dinner before bed?"

Liang Yong will wait for her to fall asleep, Liang Cheng is not surprised, and maybe even dissatisfied with her late return, but whether this little tiger will not eat dinner because he is angry, Liang Cheng is not sure.

After all, if it was placed in the past, of course, this would be absolutely impossible, but now it is not necessarily, after so many things have happened in the mansion one after another, everyone has changed more or less, including this young child who is less than seven years old.

"I've used some, but not much, I guess I want to wait for the young lady to come back and have dinner together." Nian Xiang lowered his voice and replied with a smile.

"Well, then I'll go see Yong'er first. ā€

Liang Cheng also smiled at this time, as long as Liang Yong was mentioned, he could always inadvertently arouse the softest place in Liang Yong's heart, so he didn't change his clothes first, and after taking his hands, Liang Cheng walked to the warm pavilion first.

The deliberately lightened footsteps, bypassing the plum blossom bead embroidery screen inlaid with bright jade, Liang Cheng saw at a glance the little man who was curled up into a ball and was on the big kang covered with carved silk satin.

"I slept soundly. ā€

Walked lightly to the side of the kang, Liang Cheng tucked the quilt for Liang Yong and smiled.

"That's also now, Miss doesn't know, just now the fourth master has been making trouble looking for you. ā€

Nian Xiang sighed loudly as he spoke, quite helpless, and the green cocoons on the side couldn't help but smile and comfort: "Then you are better than us, you don't know, this whole day, it's really 'lively' too much!"

"How?"

Nian Xiang was aroused by Qingxiang's words, and then asked about what happened when he went out today, and Qingxiang was naturally 1510 and told Nian Xiang, and even Nian Xiang, who had always been steady, was a little dumbfounded.

"So, now not only His Royal Highness Qi Ling and His Royal Highness Qi Yu have already decided to go to Shanhaiguan, but even His Royal Highness the Prince of Winning Wang and Prince Chu Gu are on the list?"

"Yes, exactly. ā€

Qingzhu and Nian Xiang talked in a low voice behind Liang Ming, but no matter how carefully they lowered their voices, Liang Cheng could still hear clearly and not miss a word.

Sometimes people are really powerless, no matter how many methods they think of in advance, but as soon as they wait for something powerless to happen, everything they thought of before becomes unusable.

Stretching out his hand, he gently brushed away the hair on his face for Liang Yong, who was still asleep.

Liang Cheng quietly listened to the conversation between Qingzhu and Nian Xiang behind her without saying a word, and slowly walked away, until she couldn't hear anything in her ears, she slowly lowered her eyes, revealing emotions that only Liang Yong, who was asleep, could see.

The night is deep.

A big bright moon in the sky bloomed with a bright and clear light, which was quietly shining on the entire Jian'an.

As long as people look up, no matter where you are in the city of Jian'an, you can clearly see the bright moon in the sky, including the Linyang Palace.

When Liang Cheng had already returned to the Zhendong General's Mansion, Chu Gu was still on his way back to the palace, and at this time, in the Linyang Palace, when Chu Gu didn't know, a few people had quietly gathered. These people are one of the three princes, Fu Xiang, the left prime minister, Liang Sixuan, the right prime minister, and Yu En, the Taiwei, as well as Shang Shuling Yu Kui, the old man of the Yu family and the winner of the king.

In the middle of the night, these six people were secretly summoned into the Linyang Palace by Concubine Meng.

"Tell me what you can do now. ā€

At this time, except for Concubine Meng and Liang Sixuan, there was no one in the empty and depressed hall on the surface, and the concubine broke the dead silence in the room with a word.

"Now that we are ready to send an arrow, we have no choice, and no matter what happens, we can't change our original plan. What's more, Liang Gong has now personally gone to Lingnan to lobby the old generals to come out of the mountain again, if there is any change on our side at this time, how can we be worthy of Liang Gong's hard work?"

Here, the old man of the Yu family is the most suitable to speak first in any aspect.

Therefore, as soon as Concubine Meng's words landed, almost everyone turned their attention to his old man, and the old man of the Yu family took the lead in speaking.

But when the old man Yu mentioned the old man of the Liang family, although Liang Sixuan's expression was not different, a trace of helplessness flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"Yu Gong is right! Concubine, at this time, I Xiyin is already in a situation where there is no way to retreat. ā€

And except for the old man of the Yu family, King Ying is naturally the person with the highest status and prestige here.

And what King Win said is also true, Xi Yin's situation on the front line is now very critical, how can there be a time for them to calmly choose another choice, not to mention such a major event as delaying the army's expedition.

Who is not a powerful minister here?

The meaning of King Win's words is naturally something that no one understands, so for a while, the main hall became silent again, perhaps because everyone knows the importance of this, so when it comes to choosing, it becomes more and more difficult.

"Concubine, is the situation really so bad?" and after a long silence, Prime Minister Fu Xiang suddenly opened his mouth and asked Concubine Meng in a soft voice.

"If that's not the case, why should I urgently summon you into the palace late at night?"

Concubine Meng said very tiredly: "Xiao Zheng, the head of the Imperial Hospital, has already reported to me twice yesterday that he is in critical condition, and it is really a fluke to survive today, and the situation is not optimistic." ā€

The person who can make this room full of important ministers of the country so sad is really only one person in Xiyin.

Emperor Wen of Xiyin, who has been sick for a long time.

Emperor Wen's situation is very unoptimistic, this is a rumor that has been quietly circulating in Jian'an some time ago, but only a very few people know that this is not a rumor, but a fact.

Since the former crown prince Qi Huai was deposed and imprisoned in disguise, Emperor Wen's body has been ill, and the reason why he has been able to persist until now is only because he has been hanging on to his life by relying on countless rare medicinal materials in the palace.

But now it seems that even rare medicinal materials can no longer work.

And what's worse is that the current Xiyin is exactly the situation that the arrow has to be sent on.

The three armies have already been re-clothed in battle armor by Old Man Liang and then taken over the commander's seal, and it is a rare moment to pluck up confidence again and are ready to go.

If there is any accident now, which delays the blow to this army, then the morale that has been regained with great difficulty after many efforts will be wasted.

Therefore, now Concubine Meng, Liang Sixuan and others are so embarrassed.

After all, if Emperor Wen really died at this time, then the whole country of Xiyin would definitely have to hold a national funeral.

The matter of marching out will be affected no matter what, but when the time comes, how big the impact will be is not something that Concubine Meng, the old man of the Yu family and others can predict.

In the main hall, all of a sudden, the atmosphere of silence became more and more suppressed, and at this time, everyone was thinking about the same thing, but there was almost no solution to the best of both worlds.

"Alas........."

And after a long time, Concubine Meng suddenly spit out a faint sigh.

Concubine Meng and her old man said quietly: "Hide it, let's hide this matter first, except for a few of us, until the ninth day of the lunar month, no matter what happens, this matter must not be known to the eighth person." ā€

Concubine Meng's old voice echoed quietly in this empty hall, and it looked so tired at this moment that Liang Sixuan and the others couldn't say a word except for saluting and agreeing.

And since tonight, the Zichen Palace has been completely banned, and no one is allowed to enter or leave except for Concubine Meng, including Concubine Hui and the second prince Qi Cheng, as well as Princess Changping, who has always been specially allowed by Concubine Meng and her old man to enter and leave the Zichen Palace.

The night is getting darker and darker.

*****

*****

It's getting colder.

The cold winter is always longer than the warm and bright spring and summer, just like for Liang Cheng, in her memory, this winter is too long and too long.

looks so good that Liang Cheng sometimes thinks that her memory is wrong, so this winter will become so long and cold than the previous winters.

And what made Deliang Cheng feel cold almost invaded into her bones was today - the ninth day of the lunar month.

On the Xuanyuan Terrace, hundreds of officials had already gathered at this time.

Liang Cheng held Liang Yong tightly and followed behind the Shen family, where they are now is on a side platform where the family gathers, from here, although they are not as good as the front of the Xuanwu platform, those royal clans who are accompanying Concubine Meng and her old man can see clearly, but at the front of the partial platform, they can still see the figure of Old Man Liang clearly.

And among the people who can stand at the forefront at this time, the Liang family of the General's Mansion in Zhendong is naturally shared, so Liang Cheng can also see the old man Liang, who is standing at the head of the three armies in military uniform, the majestic posture clearly.

This is her grandfather!

If it weren't for the snow-white hair and beard that were blown up by the wind and were too dazzling, which made Liang Cheng's eyes hurt, maybe her mood would not be as complicated as it is now.

On the Xuanyuan Terrace, where there is no end in sight on the side platform, patches of bright red are spreading.

Under the sun, the bright red armor was refracted with countless dazzling brilliance.

Tens of thousands of fearless and brave figures, even if there is no sound, at this time it is a shocking silent shout, Liang Cheng is not the first time to practice for the three armies, but such a solemn, returnable momentum, Liang Cheng has almost never seen.

Perhaps, it has her grandfather's relationship, but it is more of the shock brought to her by these young and brave soldiers.

For the sake of their own country's safety, this group of people who ignore the current one-sided decline of their own side, or the heroic posture of going to the battlefield so bravely and fearlessly, no matter who they are, are worthy of respect.

For this reason, Liang Cheng's feelings are even deeper.

After all, the heroic old man who stood at the head of the three armies at this time was her grandfather!

No matter how much my father and mother are against it.

No matter how many means my father and mother tried to stop them, they did not hesitate to stumble openly and secretly, but my grandfather never looked back in the end.

With such a resolute back, my father and mother are probably helpless and sad.

Otherwise, whether it is a father or a mother's face now, it would not be so ugly.

Liang Cheng and even Liang Yong are now extremely cautious looking at their mother's expressions, especially Liang Yong, she knows more than Liang Yong, so she is naturally much more worried.

For example, last night, due to the particularity of today, the Shen family specially came back from the Shen Mansion in advance to stay for one night.

And since the Shen family stepped into the Zhendong General's Mansion yesterday, not only Liang Cheng, but all the people in the Liang Mansion could clearly see from her mother's face that unusual indifferent look.

That kind of look, on her mother's face, is generally not common.

Because it is actually very difficult to provoke the Shen family to such an extent and show such an indifferent look, at least Liang Cheng is difficult to see in her mother's body.

For this reason, Liang Cheng also had a lot of curiosity, curious about who had such a "ability" to make her mother pay so much attention.

But having said that, if you really put it into action and let Liang Mingzhen go to inquire about the Shen family, then it will be another matter, and it will have to be another matter, after all, it is not difficult to think about it, but if you really want to act, it will be different.

Anyway, Liang Cheng didn't have that guts.

Therefore, until he arrived at Xuanyuan Terrace from the mansion this morning, even though Shen's expression became more and more cold, Liang Cheng still didn't dare to ask a word.

Even with Liang Yong, he is unusually quiet and well-behaved, like an extremely quiet child.

"Sister, what's wrong with my mother?"

But this is just in front of the Shen family, when Liang Cheng is here, what does Liang Yong usually look like, and what is still what he looks like now, after avoiding the angle that Shen can see, Liang Yong quietly pulled Liang Cheng's sleeve and asked in a low voice.

"Where will I know, why don't you ask?"

Liang Cheng's emotions were originally a little depressed at this time, but after a pair of Liang Yong's big eyes flickering, the big stone that seemed to have been pressed on his heart was finally rarely loosened.

"I'm not going. And in the face of his sister's deliberate instigation, Liang Yong was not fooled, "My mother is in such a bad mood, sister, you don't dare to get too close, let alone me." ā€

"Then you know it's easy to do........."

"Quiet. ā€

But just when Liang Cheng and Liang Yong were about to start arguing, Shen, who had been cold and dark, and was silent, suddenly spoke lightly, so frightened that Liang Cheng and Liang Yong hurriedly stopped talking.

And after standing straight for a while without squinting, but without hearing Shen's next reprimand, Liang Cheng and Liang Yong slowly began to quietly look at Shen's expression again.

I saw that today, Shen Shi, who wore a small embroidered gold peony silver and white embroidered bright satin trim and a dark purple multicolored trimmed plain makeup and gold jacket skirt, was already beautiful under the Yaoguang of the half-moon silk inlaid with three-color gemstones on the unbloomed bun, and at this time, it was even more radiant with a deep grace, and it also invisibly accentuated the sense of majesty that Shen himself carried.

The beauty of motherhood, there are really few women in this world who can match!

In fact, there are not a few beautiful people that Liang Cheng has seen now.

Not to mention, in the Zhendong General's Mansion, like the Han family and the Xiao Han family, they are already one of the few beauties, but as long as they stand with their mothers, although the two are beautiful, they are always less than their mothers.

Not to mention Princess Changping and Tang Menglan, who are still young.

Among these girls of the same generation as Liang Cheng, Princess Changping and Tang Menglan can be regarded as the best in appearance.

Compared with the two of them, even Liang Ji can't say the word "better", but it's just that they are on par with them, and even they are like the most tender flowers blooming.

When standing next to her mother, it is also the light that will be taken away, which is not comparable in terms of appearance or inner temperament.

And it was by the side of such a gorgeous woman that Liang Cheng stayed for so many years.

The impact on her is also unimaginable to others.

At the very least, only in the word "beauty", the threshold that Liang Cheng wants to set is many times higher than that of ordinary people.

And for so many years, it seems that the characters who can make her so amazing have never appeared again.

Even a romantic character like Jiang Chao, due to the combined memories and lives of the two lives, although no matter what, Liang Cheng can't deny that he is a beautiful person, but she has long been unable to regain a sense of amazement with him.

The only thing that can amaze her now is ...... Except for Chu Lonely.

Thinking in her heart, she subconsciously looked ahead, only to see that behind her grandfather, the most conspicuous thing was naturally Qi Ling and Qi Yu, who were also dressed in bright red armor, but were obviously different from ordinary soldiers, with a slight dark gold circulation.

Among the children of the royal clan who went to Shanhaiguan with their grandfather this time, although it was not only Qi Ling and Qi Yu.

But the most eye-catching thing is that apart from the two of them, there is no one who can match, among which Qi Ling is because of the identity of the second prince Qi Cheng's son-in-law, and Qi Yu is because of his hard work in Jian'an and the reputation of being virtuous for many years.

Therefore, at this time, not far behind my grandfather, there were Qi Ling and Qi Yu standing.

But next to Qi Ling and Qi Yu, it should be the likes of Qi Jiu, the prince of the winning king, and several of them are also extremely eye-catching, and Chu Gu, who made Liang Cheng stop and look sideways, is still standing very behind at this time.

At this time, Chu Gu is really not treated badly!

Although Liang Cheng has long been clear about this fact, she has still been affected a lot at this time.

After all, it is not a simple matter for Chu Gu, who was going to be windy and rainy back then, to think of this young man who was excluded everywhere at this time.

It took Liang Cheng a long time to accept all this, otherwise she might have fainted from her own frightening when she saw that everyone treated Chu Gu carelessly on weekdays.

You must know that "back then" was just someone who was almost bankrupt by Chu Gu because of a dissatisfied look, not to mention what these people said and did now.

Whenever Liang Cheng inadvertently remembered Chu Gu's various acts that were very similar to revenge in the future, she would pinch a cold sweat for these ignorant and fearless people.

But that's about it.

After all, if Liang Cheng wanted to offend Chu Gu for the sake of these "ignorant and fearless" people, then she would never have such thoughts.

There are some miscellaneous thoughts in my heart, but my eyes are constantly searching the crowd.

It wasn't until she finally found the person she was looking for in a very backward position with some effort, that Liang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, although the person was standing in a somewhat backward position, at least the armor on her body was exactly the same as Qi Ling and Qi Yu.

But it's not surprising to think about it.

Qi Ling and Qi Yu's weapon assembly and entourage, if the second prince Qi Cheng and the second princess Yang take care of and prepare, then Chu Gu still has the concubine and her old man sitting there.

Chu Gu's things are only better than others, how can they be worse than others?

Liang Cheng hooked the corners of her mouth with a wry smile, she was also thinking too much.

Although she didn't know why Chu Gu had to go to Shanhaiguan with his grandfather this time, with her understanding of him, if there was no thorough plan and preparation, he would definitely not make a rash move.

Therefore, Liang Cheng is actually not very worried about Chu Gu, compared to Old Man Liang, it is really too little.

After all, in her memory, there was no such thing as Chu Gu in the battle in her previous life.

It can also be said that after Chu Gu joins the current battle with Hou Shu, what will be the result, whether it is auspicious or vicious, Liang Cheng has no clue at all.

Aside from praying for him in her heart, Liang Cheng didn't know what else she could do.

The wind will howl more and more fiercely above the plains, and the winter wind above the Xuanyuan Terrace at this time is also whistling wildly.
