Chapter 373: Cold
The jade color was so warm that the knuckles seemed to come out of the bones, and they froze for the first time today. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Chu Gu's eyes suddenly looked at Liang Yuan's lowered little head, but his voice was still very gentle, "Oh, according to what the third lady means, who is really good to Chu Gu?"
"Concubine Meng, the old lady really loves you. Also, it's ......"
Speaking of this, Liang Cheng paused.
But as long as I think that there may be a long time in the future, I will not see the young man in front of me who is so beautiful and cold to the bones that the corners of his eyes and eyebrows are so beautiful and cold that he will break his bones again, and the slender fingers that seem to be broken when he grips it hard suddenly pick up the floating cloud jar in front of him, and after drinking the green snow tea soup that is obviously still a little hot inside, she stood up with a "sigh" body, and for the first time, she was so brave and brave that she looked into the depths of his eyes.
"And Xu Zhao, he is also a person who will be really good to you, no matter if you go up the sword mountain or down to the sea of fire in the future, he will be the one who will never abandon you. Except for them, you better stay away. ”
The sun, which enveloped all the light of all things in heaven and earth, had moved to the center of the sky at some point.
And I don't know when, when he looked up at her, it seemed that all the elegance in the world was dyed in the depths of his eyes, and there was already the sound of ice and snow melting.
What the hell should he do with her?
What should I do with this life-saving benefactor who is obviously afraid at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, but he is desperate to lean towards him?
The wind blew slightly through the flaming red pomegranate tree outside the courtyard wall, and in an instant, the prosperity and lingering that had been meandering for a lifetime slowly spread out.........
But he didn't know.
She doesn't know.
Liang Cheng was afraid of Chu Gu, and she herself understood this very well, after all, in her previous life, after seeing his domineering and powerful in the future, the first thing she thought about after she threw herself into Shen's arms in this life was how to take back Chu Gu from Liang Ji's hands, and from the hands of her second sister who participated in the plan to kill Yong'er "back then", she took back the title of "life-saving benefactor" that Chu Gu had read and remembered for a lifetime.
Although she didn't have Liang Ji's viciousness and strategy, nor did she have such a desire to step on his blood to climb to the highest position in Xiyin, as long as she could block Liang Ji's way forward and cut off all the branches and vines that Liang Ji might stretch out to Chu Gu, then Liang Cheng would already be very satisfied.
In this life, no matter what, it is impossible for her to allow Liang Ji to stand in the position that Chu Gu is most concerned about, and then condescendingly stretch out her claws to her mother and Yong'er. And because of this, no matter how afraid she is of him, she will always be by his side without flinching, and will not allow Liang Ji to touch one of his fingers again;
Therefore, in the Tongshu Water Pavilion covered by the shade of thick green trees, even if she was scared to death, the words that had been around her teeth and kept in her heart were to be said no matter what.
No matter how she pulled Liang Yong, who was having a good time by the shallow pool, after saying that, she ran away for a while.
No matter how Chu Gu returned to Linyang Palace leisurely later, how she whitewashed the peace with Concubine Meng, her old man and her mother, anyway, before leaving the palace, she never looked at him again.
And this also became the last time they met before she left Jian'an with Old Man Liang.
The silver moon is like a hook, sprinkled with layers of hazy moonlight in the night, tonight's Zhendong General's Mansion is more and more silent than in the past, and the entire mansion covering a large area, at this time in the night, is like a giant lion in waiting, majestic and bleak.
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.
Liang Hu, the general of Zhendong, fought horses all his life, and the peaceful world of Xiyin was fought down and guarded step by step. Therefore, within Xiyin, Liang Hu's prestige was extremely heavy, especially in the army. Even if Liang Hu had already given up the handsome seal in his hand and lived at home for many years, no one in the entire Xiyin still dared to offend him.
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.
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 made Jian'an almost full of trouble because of the words of the second 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.
"Back then, the second 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 second 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 second 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 Ming, she was even fortunate to witness Tang Menglan's unscrupulousness even in front of the second princess Yang, in front of the second 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 make concessions like the second princess Yang since Liang Cheng and Princess Changping, but no matter whether Liang Cheng or Princess Changping, they will not be like Tang Menglan, and the second princess Yang will tear their faces directly and completely.
Liang Hu, the general of Zhendong, fought horses all his life, and the peaceful world of Xiyin was fought down and guarded step by step. Therefore, within Xiyin, Liang Hu's prestige was extremely heavy, especially in the army. Even if Liang Hu had already given up the handsome seal in his hand and lived at home for many years, no one in the entire Xiyin still dared to offend him.
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
But that's just a manifestation of Emperor Wen's favor to the King of England, Emperor Wen can use it, but if others dare to do this, waiting for their fate without thinking too much, they can know what it is, so everyone dare not approach this very special existence.
Therefore, wherever there is a British king, officials will subconsciously stay away from him, and most people are more afraid of the British king than respectful of him, let alone Tang Menglan?
The ability of the King of England to lead the sea division is well known to the whole country of Xiyin, but as long as the people of Xiyin are not unfamiliar with the King of England, that is, the King of England is extremely protective.
