Chapter 409: Clouds
The crescent moon spring in the Qianyun Tower is a very beautiful scenery, but it is usually left out like this, except for the maids and mothers-in-law who are guarding the yard and sweeping can enjoy the crescent, everyone else is almost forgetting it.
Including Liang Cheng.
"Third sister, where are you going?"
In the morning, after eating breakfast and serving Old Man Liang to drink the medicinal soup, Liang Cheng and Liang Yong said goodbye and retired, but as soon as they left Mingcheng Hall just now, Liang Cheng said goodbye to Liang Cheng unusually, which made Liang Cheng look at her with some surprise and asked.
"In the Qianyun Building behind Mingcheng Hall, there is a crescent moon spring there, does the eldest sister know?"
Liang Cheng didn't want to hide it, anyway, if she could really avoid people's eyes and ears, it would really be a hell.
This is Mingcheng Hall, the most heavily guarded place in Qinhe Villa, Liang Cheng took so many maids and mothers-in-law to bypass Mingcheng Hall to go to Qianyun Tower, how could this not be discovered?
Therefore, Liang Cheng simply went to the bright spot, and then Liang Cheng just asked, so she told the truth.
"Crescent Spring?"
But compared to Liang Cheng's calmness, Liang Cheng frowned slightly, as if it was the first time she had heard this name, which made Liang Cheng a little surprised.
"Qianyun Tower is behind Mingcheng Hall, because there is a hot crescent moon spring in it, so it is also a famous courtyard in Qinhe Villa, haven't you heard of others?"
"Nope. And as Liang Cheng expected, Liang Yu shook her head and said: "Today is the first time I heard the name 'Crescent Spring' from the third sister, if I hadn't happened to ask it today, I don't know when I would have known that there is such a spring." ”
"It's not too late for the eldest sister to know now, anyway, Yong'er and I have entered the Qianyun Tower once except when we arrived at the villa on the first day, and we haven't been there on weekdays, if I didn't suddenly think about it last night, then I'm afraid I still can't remember it now." If the eldest sister is not busy, then why don't you go over with us for a visit. Liang Cheng looked at Liang Yu and said with a smile.
"This..."Liang Wu hesitated for a while, and finally nodded in agreement, "Anyway, I'm going back in a daze, so it's better to go over with the third sister and the fourth brother to see the crescent spring." ”
"What the eldest sister said is very true, then let's go. Liang Cheng didn't delay much, and after Liang Cheng nodded, she was pulled forward by Liang Yong, who couldn't wait, and went straight around Mingcheng Hall and towards Jiangyun Tower.
At this time, it was still early, the sun was shining, and Liang Ming, who was speechless on her face, was pulled by Liang Yong and walked forward quickly in the green grass, but Liang Cheng followed them with a trace of trance and a trace of safety.
Although this picture is not very beautiful and pleasing to the eye, under such bright sunlight, there is still a trace of warmth.
The trees are brilliant, and the golden petals are scattered on the side of the road.
After the breeze blew, a burst of rich floral fragrance surrounded the pedestrians who fell, Liang Cheng just took a gentle breath, and the refreshing fragrance of flowers filled her mind.
It turns out that it is already the season of golden cinnamon blooming.
Although the summer is still dragging its tail and not over, the message of autumn has slowly penetrated into the garden unconsciously, and between a casual look back or a casual stop, people can see that the little autumn has arrived.
Liang Cheng and Liang Yong stood under a high wall, looking at the intricate wall carvings on the wall a little stunned, and originally they were just a casual glance, but when they saw the gorgeous wall carvings that were vaguely carved with the same color, Liang Cheng and Liang Yong were stunned.
They have seen a lot of carved beams and paintings, but when they can carve such magnificent murals in the same color, Liang Cheng and Liang Yong are really rare.
"It's just that the courtyard wall outside an idle courtyard is already so extraordinary, it's really a sight that people look forward to when they go in for a while. ”
Compared with Liang Cheng and the others, who were already a little absorbed in looking at the courtyard wall, Liang Cheng was calmer.
After all, she really didn't understand what the mural with some undulating lines was beautiful.
"The eldest sister is right. Liang Cheng suddenly let out a long breath and said lightly: "Just a courtyard wall is already so surprising, I really don't know what surprises will be waiting for us after we go in later." ”
Saying that, Liang Cheng didn't delay any longer, and took Liang Yong, who was still a little unable to react, and sent someone to knock on the courtyard door with Liang Yuan.
"Who's in the morning?"
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 County...... Chu Gu's mother, that is, at that time, 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 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.
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 can have anything to do with the King of England, and because the King of England is both a prince with a different surname and a general who guards one side, everyone in the court even deliberately keeps a distance from the King of England, so as not to make Emperor Dewen suspect that he has any bad intentions, then it is indefensible.
Even if Emperor Wen attached great importance to the British king, even the unwritten rule that the relatives and children of the generals guarding the border must stay in Jian'an as hidden hostages, Emperor Wen directly abolished it for the sake of the British king
