Chapter 420: Osmanthus Wine
The autumn is hearty, and the season that is neither hot nor cold is also loved by many people, and Liang Cheng is obviously one of them, so she has been in a good mood recently, even if Liang Yong usually makes some small mistakes, Liang Cheng will let him go with one eye closed.
This made a certain little tiger fall in love with autumn deeply.
In the afternoon, the warm sunlight sprinkled directly into the warm pavilion of the Lotus Pavilion, which just brought a warm tranquility, but the next moment it was broken by a cheerful crisp sound.
"Sister, sister, Yong'er is back, is the cheese ready?" As soon as she came back, she didn't ask anything, the first thing she asked was food, and Liang Ming, who was still practicing calligraphy, couldn't help but be speechless for a while.
"You know how to eat."
Liang Cheng finally put down the Zihao in her hand, and after taking the tangled plain silk handkerchief handed by Qingzhu and wiping her hands, she pinched the soft little face, and then turned to Qingzhu and said, "Send someone to the big kitchen to bring all the pastries." ”
"Yes." Qingyu smiled and turned around to make arrangements, and Liang Yong was even more happy and hugged Liang Cheng directly.
But this little tiger ran all the way back, Liang Cheng broke him away with disgust, and then hurriedly asked people to boil water, and after the little sweaty man was dressed and dressed, the maids and mothers-in-law who went to the big kitchen also returned.
"Hey, how can there be osmanthus wine?"
But just after the little maids brought out the pastries from the food box and laid them out, the sharp-eyed green cocoon caught a glimpse of a pot of osmanthus wine in a sapphire flower jade pot.
"Oh, this, it was deliberately sent to the third lady by the cooks in the big kitchen, isn't the Mid-Autumn Festival coming." The little maidens said with a smile.
Drinking osmanthus wine is the custom of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and if it weren't for that, Liang Cheng would have forgotten about it.
Reaching out and patting away the little hand that was curiously reaching out to the sapphire flower jade pot, Liang Cheng glared at Liang Yong, and let the little tiger hold his large and small pastries and hide aside to eat obediently, Liang Cheng picked up the small jade wine jug.
"Osmanthus wine......... It turns out that it's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival. ”
Last year's Mid-Autumn Festival, she and Yong'er accompanied her mother, she still remembered how bright the moon was that day, and-
Forget it, I still don't think about those things, and I don't know what my mother is going to do during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, she and Yong'er are not by her mother's side.
The sweet aroma of osmanthus slowly filled the room along the small delicate spout, and suddenly hooked Liang Cheng's thoughts deeply.
I don't know if I send the letter to Jian'an now, and wait until the fifteenth, will my mother be able to receive it?
It's okay not to think about it, but when this thought came to mind, Liang Cheng began to sit still, and after a while, she suddenly grabbed Liang Yong, who was eating happily on the side, and hurriedly took the confused little tiger to the bookcase, and took out two snow-white jade notes with faint pink petals inside, one in front of Liang Yong, and one in front of herself.
"Yong'er, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, do you want to be a mother?"
"Yes."
"Okay, I also miss my mother, then let's write a letter to Jian'an on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, okay?" Liang Cheng said that Qingzhu and Nian Xiang next to her had already ground the ink neatly.
"Good!" And Liang Yong finally understood what Liang Cheng meant at this time, and at that moment, his big eyes were bent into a crescent moon, holding a big pen, and he lowered his head and began to write, without pausing at all. It seems that Liang Yong also misses the Shen family very much, but in front of Liang Yuan, this villain never says much.
The warm pavilion suddenly quieted down, and Mother Qiu sat on the edge of the kang with a smile in her eyes, quietly watching Qingzhu and Nian Xiang studying ink on the side, while Liang Cheng and Liang Yong were writing at the desk.
In the sunlight, a long and shallow shadow was cast, and in the faint fragrance of osmanthus flowers, the emerald green branches were extended.
When the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, Liang Cheng and Liang Yong began to miss the Shen family very much, and the Shen family, who was far away in Jian'an, was not like this, and as early as a few days ago, she had already arranged people.
The things that were to be sent to Yingchuan before mid-autumn were escorted on the road, and at this time they had already walked half the way.
Presumably, we will be able to reach Yingchuan in the near future.
On the path between the Lotus Pavilion and the Wind Pavilion, it is now full of red leaves, after the sky is dark, Liang Cheng led Liang Yong to step on the thin layer of red leaves that have just fallen today, under the orange light of the silver foil bead lantern, everything is soft and slight.
"Sister, can our letter be received by my mother before the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Liang Yong was in a very good mood, and his steps on the light jumped endlessly.
"Well, I can receive it, but even if I can't catch it before the Mid-Autumn Festival, my mother will definitely be happy when she receives it later, but we are in a bit of a hurry to send the letter, and the gift is afraid that it will have to be at the back of the letter before it can arrive in Jian'an."
But Liang Cheng's mood at this time was similar to Liang Yong's, as long as she thought that her mother could receive the letters and gifts sent by her and Yong'er around the Mid-Autumn Festival, she felt happy.
The two arrived at Mingchengtang in such a chattering discussion along the way, and today it was still Liang Wu who was ahead of them.
"The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, do you have any plans for the third sister when she arrives?" While following the mother-in-law who came out to greet her, stepped into Mingcheng Hall, Liang Wan turned her head and asked Liang Cheng.
"I haven't planned it yet, but I just wrote a letter to Jian'an, but it shouldn't be good for us to show up in Yingchuan now, presumably on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, it's just to worship the moon and appreciate laurel, nothing special, what about you, eldest sister?"
"It's not all the same, it's not easy for you to go out, and I'm the same."
Although it is not Jian'an here, no one will be able to recognize Liang Cheng and Liang Yong casually, but after all, it is better to be careful. Besides, in any case, when you need to hide your whereabouts, it is a little inappropriate to go to a crowded place.
Liang Cheng and Liang Wu both understood this truth, so they didn't think about it at all.
"You can still go to enjoy the lanterns during the Mid-Autumn Festival, don't you know that the eldest sister and sister?" But there are people who don't understand, a certain little tiger looked up at Liang Cheng and Liang Yu very innocently, and asked strangely.
And Liang Cheng and Liang Wu, who were looked at by him with such eyes as if they were talking about their loneliness, suddenly felt a little speechless, but at this time, the three of them also happened to arrive at the warm pavilion.
"Grandfather."
"You're here, just now, I have something to tell you, sit down."
"Yes, grandfather." Liang Cheng and Liang Yong sat down in order of teeth under Old Man Liang, and then obediently waited for Old Man Liang to show off.
"It's mid-autumn in two days, and the time you have to go to this Yingchuan with me is not short, but you can only be around the villa during this period, and you must be stuffy during this time, with the lantern festival in the city during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the three of you will also go for a good visit."
Liang Cheng and Liang Yong couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, they really didn't expect their grandfather to say this to them, and the three of them couldn't react for a while.
In the end, the old steward of Chengping next to him suddenly coughed, and Liang Wu, the eldest of the three Liang Yuan, came back to her senses, and hurriedly got up and replied: "Returning to my grandfather, about the Mid-Autumn Festival, my sister-in-law just talked to the third sister, but our thoughts are the same, the Mid-Autumn Festival sacrifice, moon worship, and osmanthus wine, these are in the villa, and there is no need to go to the city to play again." ”
Liang Wu said what she said to Liang Cheng before, but Old Man Liang didn't expect it.
"Whatever you want, but if you want to go to the Lantern Festival on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, then just talk to the stewards."
"Yes."
Liang Cheng and Liang Yong got up, and bowed to the old man Liang before returning to their seats, and then there was nothing to do, Liang Cheng and Liang Yong sat in Mingcheng Hall for a while, and after the old man Liang took the test for Liang Yong's homework, he couldn't help but look a little tired, Liang Cheng and the three of them saw this, hurriedly got up and said goodbye, and one after the other they withdrew from the warm pavilion and left Mingcheng Hall.
"I really didn't expect my grandfather to allow us to go to the city to enjoy the lanterns on the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is really unexpected." As soon as she stepped out of the door of Mingcheng Hall, Liang Wan turned her head to look at Liang Cheng and smiled.
"That's it, but how can you say no, eldest sister, how good it would be for us to go out to enjoy the lanterns together on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival." But before Liang Cheng could answer, a little tiger beside her couldn't wait to interject.
"Yong'er wants to enjoy the lanterns so much? Then why didn't you say it when you were in front of your grandfather just now? Liang Cheng glanced at a certain little tiger amusedly.
"In front of my grandfather, how dare I talk nonsense." Liang Yong was dumbfounded by Liang Cheng's question all of a sudden, and could only mumble quietly twice.
"Yong'er, I can't hear what you say."
Liang Cheng pursed her lips and chuckled, and in her amber eyes, the smile was also quite strong, but Liang Yong lowered his head and didn't see it, but after hearing Liang Cheng's words, he hurriedly said, "No, Yong'er didn't say anything just now." ”
Liang Yong's empty eyes glanced at the small appearance, not only made Liang Yuan's eyes crooked, but even Liang Yong on the side couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, "Yong'er, don't blame the eldest sister, but grandfather is not in good health, and we can't just leave him and go out to play by ourselves, right?" ”
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, I can't help but talk about the King of England, Liang Cheng's expression at this time is not very good, that is the King of England! It is one of the only three kings with different surnames in Xiyin, 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 for Xiyin throughout the year, and he is the biggest contributor to the peace of the West Territory.
Such a hero, no matter who it is, will not ignore and cannot be ignored.
