Chapter 194: Locking the Dragon Gate
On October 19, the entire Jian'an was silent, Emperor Wen, who had just recovered from a serious illness, fell ill again, and the Tai Hospital was dispatched, even Concubine Meng and King Li were also guarding in the Zichen Palace, since Wan'an Garden, the entire Jian'an was gradually shrouded in a thick layer of dark clouds.

"Sister, where is my mother?"
But at this time, in the Zhendong General's Mansion, in Xiaoyunxi, Liang Yong, who had just been picked up by Liang Cheng from Heshou Zhai, hid on the warm kang and did not move, just looked at Liang Yong, who was embarrassed by holding an embroidery pattern, and asked.
"My mother went to the palace, His Majesty fell ill, the concubine and her old man were restless, and the mother was worried, so she entered the palace with her father early in the morning to visit the concubine and her old man. ”
Liang Cheng didn't raise her head, and replied a little absentmindedly, now all her thoughts were only on the small embroidery pattern in her hand.
This embroidery pattern is a very ordinary juxtaposition pattern, but for Liang Yuan, it is about to embarrass her to death. You must know that in all Liang Cheng's memories, the number of times she has held a needle and thread can even be counted with two hands.
Not to mention the embroidery pattern of the pedicle flower in her hand now, even the simplest piece of grass, maybe Liang Cheng can't embroider it, this is basically more difficult for her than to let her shoulder and not lift her hand, and go to the battlefield with a knife.
Alas......... Liang Cheng didn't know how many times she had looked at the flower in her hand and sighed.
"Sister, aren't you happy?" Although Liang Yong didn't know why Liang Cheng was doing, he wanted to sigh at the embroidery on her hand, but Liang Cheng's face, which was about to turn into a small bun, was still very easy to make Liang Yong understand that Liang Cheng was not happy now.
"Yes, not happy. In front of Liang Yong, Liang Cheng didn't need to lie, and after sighing again, Liang Cheng finally threw the flower in her hand into the embroidery cage, "I originally wanted to embroider a purse for her on Sister Zhong's birthday, but now it seems that it's better to forget it." ”
Liang Cheng thought of the two previous failures, and remembered the crooked and twisted ones above, not like a pedicle flower, but like a centipede's purse, and finally couldn't help but admit that everyone has his talent, and she must have no talent at all for things like female red.
Liang Cheng couldn't help but let out a long sigh in her heart, while Liang Yong tilted her head to look at her in confusion, and then said: "There are embroiderers in our house, and the embroidery of Sister Qingzhu and Sister Nianxiang is also very good, why does my sister embroider by herself?"
"Because the mind is different. Liang Cheng said weakly.
"Why? My mother has never embroidered anything for us, so is the clothes that my mother asked her to make for us to be different from the ones that my mother made herself?" Liang Yong asked Liang Cheng innocently.
But Liang Cheng immediately broke out in a cold sweat when she heard it, "No, no, no, of course the mind is the same, just now my sister said wrong, I mean I'm idle and fine, so I want to embroider it myself, but my mother is different, my mother is very busy every day." ”
Shen doesn't understand female popularity, Liang Cheng completely follows her at this point, but who dares to say that her mother doesn't have the heart to do it herself? Isn't it unpleasant to find herself, Liang Cheng eagerly wanted to erase the sentence he just said.
"But my mother is still very free sometimes, just like those spring thunder and fog outside, aren't they all taken care of by my mother herself?
God, this little tiger's curiosity is not easy to use, why is it used in this problem at this time, I usually don't see him so tirelessly seeking knowledge and exploring in books.
"Well, that's because ......" Liang Cheng looked at the big eyes that flashed at her, she really regretted dying, her heart kept turning, but she suddenly couldn't remember anything for a while, "That, that's because—ah, Yong'er, look, Nian Xiang brought something to you." ”
Originally, he was still looking at Liang Cheng directly, waiting for her to answer his doubts, and under Liang Cheng's shout, he subconsciously turned his head to look at her voice, and when his eyes were reflected, after the two red lacquered peach blossom food boxes, the round little figure had already run to Nian Xiang's side in a blink of an eye, and his eyes were only staring at her hand.
Phew, it was too dangerous just now.
As soon as Liang Cheng was relieved, the person collapsed directly on the kang, regardless of the gaze cast by the green cocoon who had been covering her mouth and smiling from beginning to end, anyway, she was not unseen by them when she was more embarrassed, what is this.
In Xiao Yunyu, because of the porridge that Nian Xiang brought from the big kitchen in a very timely manner, Liang Cheng finally got through a big crisis, and Liang Yong's attention instantly paid attention to the food in front of him.
The afternoon sun shined warmly into the house, and it was so quiet that only the sound of a little tiger eating was permeated in the quiet afternoon, Liang Cheng looked at the already golden courtyard through the carved peony window of the warm pavilion.
Today's weather is rare to be clear, although the winter sunshine, the warmth is very little, but the brilliant patches of golden yellow, but still so dazzling, as if just looking at it, people can feel the boundless warmth. Just like Liang Cheng's mood at this time, it was so gorgeous and colorful, after Jian'an spread that the locked dragon gate of the East Palace had been lowered, her heart seemed to be surrounded by sunshine.
Qi Huai, this time, it seems that you have no fate with the supreme unification position!
Lock the dragon, the East Palace has been abandoned......
*****
*****
"Lock the dragon, the East Palace has been abolished, it seems that Qi Huai has no way out this time, but he is really bold, he even dares to accept the disaster relief food and salary sent by those people in Wenzhou, he deserves to be done like this. ”
It's still the same bustle, the same ordinary tavern with only three or four people, in the most inconspicuous corner, two teenagers in ordinary clothes holding glasses opposite each other, and one of them is a smiling teenager in the corner of his eye, ridiculing the misfortune of others to the person opposite him. And that other person happens to be Qi Huai, who has now been confined in the East Palace.
"This is not accurate, hasn't Your Majesty let him move out of the East Palace yet?" The other young man's beautiful eyebrows were not shocked or angry, and he was smiling on his face, but there was only a streamer in his eyes, which was dazzlingly bright.
"You just think too much, lock the dragon door, it's not just the word 'confinement' that can be bluffed, this Wenzhou corruption case, there are already a lot of people implicated before and after, not to mention that behind this disaster relief food and salary also represents the hundreds of thousands of lives that starved to death, it is impossible for the prince not to waste this time. ”
When the young man said this, his voice was rarely depressed, but then he began to say informally: "But I didn't say it, Chu Gu, your sick Xi Shi is really amazing." ”
Chu Gu didn't react, and asked flatly, "What's wrong with her?"
Xu Zhao didn't sell Guan Zi either, and he didn't realize that there was anything wrong with Chu Gu's too natural and ordinary reaction, so he laughed and said: "I've heard about it, the little overlord of the British Prince's Mansion was very angry with the Liang family's golden branch, and a few days ago there was a fierce quarrel in Princess Changping's Crying Palace, don't you know?"
"I don't know. Chu Gu raised the notched celadon wine glass in front of him, leaned to his red lips, and drank all the wine in the cup, "There are too many rumors like this in the palace, you don't want to believe it if you hear anything." ”
"Then you don't believe it?" Xu Zhao's handsome face squeezed out the obscenity of the thief's eyebrows, and approached Chu Gu and whispered mysteriously: "I also heard that you also went to the Crying Hall that night." ”
"Oh, I went. ”
Before he could say the words full of stomachs, the expression of "You were always caught by me now" on his face froze before he could last long, only to hear Chu Gu continue: "That night, the concubine suddenly remembered the flower viewing banquet in Changping, and she was a little relieved for a while, so she asked me to take a look." But you know that, too, and you're smart with your ears and eyes. ”
Chu Gu raised his eyes and looked at Xu Zhao with a smile.
Xu Zhao was immediately trembling, and hurriedly explained: "I didn't send anyone to follow you, this is what Princess Changping said when she came to Zichen Hall to greet Her Majesty some time ago, I don't want to hear it." ”
Xu Zhao immediately showed his innocence to Chu Gu, but after Chu Gu heard "Princess Changping went to Zichen Hall to ask His Majesty for peace", his expression became a little cold, and he nodded casually and even answered, but the strange thing was that Xu Zhao, after seeing Chu Gu's strange performance, he seemed to have found nothing, his expression returned to the appearance of a hanger, and in a few words, he pulled the topic back to Qi Huai's body.
"I heard that before the accident, Qi Huai also personally submitted a letter of worship to the British Palace, but in the end he was rejected by the British King Yiwen Emperor's edict, it is estimated that Qi Huai should have heard some rumors at that time. ”
Chu Gu glanced at Xu Zhao and continued with his topic, "No matter what Qi Huai heard about at the time, the line of the King of England is indeed something that no one can give up easily, and the temptation is too great." ”
"It's just a Yanmeng City, why do you value it so much, is it possible that you also want to attack Tang Menglan? Then what about that Miss Liang San of yours, you don't want to have both, right? Chu Gu, you are too greedy. Xu Zhao pretended to look at Chu Gu in surprise and said with a shout.
"How important Yanmeng City is, you must know better than me, as for Tang Menglan......" Chu Gu looked at Xu Zhao and smiled slightly, "I, people definitely don't look down on me, but you can't tell." ”
Yanmeng City is backed by the West Sea, the British King has 50,000 heroes, the Tang family has fought bloodily for generations, and the reputation accumulated by no one can erase it, so as long as it is in alliance with the British Royal Mansion and pulls the Tang family on his own ship, no matter what heavy damage is suffered in Jian'an in the future, as long as he can return to Yanmeng, then he will have a chance to make a comeback.
Whether it is a military or political important place, Chu Gu doesn't believe that Xu Zhao will not be able to see clearly, but when it comes to the family affairs of the little overlord of the Tang family, there has been no follow-up since Qi Ling, and now Xu Zhao is indeed very possible.
Now Chu Gu in the eyes of the world will definitely not be able to enter the eyes of the King of England, but Xu Zhao is different, although the Xu family has also declined, but Xu Zhao is now valued by Concubine Meng and Emperor Wen at the same time, even where the Zichen Palace is located, Emperor Wen allows him a small guard to come and go at will.
This special case alone is enough to make the King of England look at Xu Zhao more, if in the end, if Concubine Meng and Emperor Wen really proposed to the King of England for him at the same time, then the Eight Achievements of the King of England might have nodded and agreed.
As for my wishes-"Don't even think about it, if you want me to marry that arrogant and willful daughter of heaven, I can't do it." I don't think I even had a good temperament like Qi Ling, let alone me. Chu Gu, ugly words can be said first, if you want to sacrifice me to use a beauty trick, it is absolutely impossible. ”
Xu Zhaoyi roared at Chu Gu with words, but Chu Gu just raised his eyebrows and said, "You think too much, really! After all, even if I have this intention, the little overlord of the Tang family doesn't look down on you, so I still say it." ”
Xu Zhao's face was full of righteousness one moment, but the next moment he immediately became even more angry, "What do you mean by this?"
"The meaning is very simple, people don't look down on you. ”
"No way. Xu Zhao exploded, "A peerless talent like me who can write and martial arts, as long as I am willing, no one will look down on me." Chu Gu, you don't use the agitation method on me, tell you, it's not that Tang Menglan doesn't look down on this son, it's that I don't look down on her. ”
Xu Zhao excitedly danced in front of Chu Gu to maintain his self-esteem, but Chu Gu ignored him, and only after he was excited did he speak: "But the old princess is seriously ill now, even if you want the concubine and her old man to help you go to the British Prince's Mansion to propose, it is impossible now, you don't have to worry." ”
"I told you, I'm not interested in Tang Menglan!"
Today, in addition to negotiating some "small things", Chu Gu and Xu Zhao also held talks on some things that have huge disputes with each other, but the result is not very good, or it should be said that Xu Zhao unilaterally went back angrily.
Although Chu Gu and Xu Zhao both want to go back to the palace together, it is impossible for the two to go back together, and now they know that there may even be only one person besides Concubine Meng, so Chu Gu and Xu Zhao are not walking together in front of others as much as possible.
At this time, Xu Zhao left, then Chu Gu would wait a little longer before leaving, and when Chu Gu was the only one left in this small wine shop, he held his glass and looked at the street, where it was a world of colorful lights, prosperous and bright. (To be continued.) )
