687, don't let go

Cao Mo went straight to the main hall, and the chief butler chased after him, and said in a low voice: "Fifth master, do you want to avoid it first, the old lady is thinking about it for you......"

Cao Mo waved his hand and interrupted him: "It doesn't matter, the person who comes is not good, you have to face it after all, what is there to avoid." Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 info Uncle Lu, you go get busy, I'll go and meet these relatives myself. He deliberately accentuated the word relative.

Cao Mo walked very fast, if he turned back at this time, he would definitely see the old housekeeper's very tangled old face with a relieved expression. Well, you can't blame him, he is old and speaks slowly, and the fifth master is young and impatient, and he moves quickly, so he has no chance to finish his words.

Cao Mo entered the main hall, and the already solemn atmosphere in the main hall suddenly turned into embarrassment.

Cao Mo saw clearly the person sitting opposite Cao San Old Lady and Cao Ningcheng, and couldn't help but sneer twice: "Master Meng, are you my foreign family?"

Master Meng really felt that he was directly slapped in the face by Cao Mo, and his old face was a little unbearable.

But what if you can't hang up, face can be more important than your head?

Whoever made him bet on the wrong treasure also looked at the wrong person.

The four princes he fancied made mistakes again and again, and finally lost the emperor's favor. Fortunately, he stopped quickly, and immediately asked the eldest son to keep a distance from the four princes, and even paid attention to the contact between the eldest princess and the fourth prince, and decisively sent Meng Qingyun, who was carefully maintained in the clan to compete for the four princesses, into the eldest princess's mansion to be Zhao Shuhan's wife, wanting to take King Rong's boat instead.

But he never expected that in the end, it was King An, whom he had never been optimistic about, that became the new emperor.

His Meng family has no contact with King An on weekdays, and even has an unfamiliarity to avoid suspicion. The only queen mother who could help the Meng family was sad and sad because of the death of the first emperor, and she was surprised by the four princes forcing the palace, and now she doesn't even know anyone.

At present, Kyoto is liquidating the three princes and the four princes and a party, and they would rather kill the wrong ones than let them go.

He really didn't know that the four princes were going to force the palace, but his previous relationship with the four princes was too close, and the eldest princess of the four princes and his mother was his eldest daughter-in-law, which meant that the four princes were forcing the palace, he and his eldest son didn't know it at all, and it is estimated that no one outside wanted to believe it!

Right now, although the new emperor has not yet made a move against the Meng family, he can clearly feel that his former relatives and friends are already avoiding him, as if he is a plague and cannot be touched.

When he had no way to ask for help, his mother told him a secret, saying that Cao Mo's grandmother was her personal maid, and her father forcibly occupied the girl after being drunk once, and the girl already had a fiancΓ© before she was sold into the house. The girl gave birth to Cao Mo's mother in August.

According to this calculation, Cao Mo's mother is his sister-in-law.

At that time, his heart was active all of a sudden, Cao Mo was King An's cousin, and he had been by King An's side since he was a child, if Cao Mo was willing to find justice for the Meng family, those things could still be found out. Even if it is an eldest son, as long as he can protect the Meng family, it is worth it.

Don't blame him for being ruthless in abandoning his son, he is the patriarch of the Meng clan, and he can put the interests of the whole clan first.

Master Meng coughed twice in embarrassment, and said bluntly: "I am your mother's brother and uncle. ”

Cao Mo's face did not change, and he glanced at Lord Meng with strange eyes, and saw that Lord Meng's heart was furious. Master Meng glanced at Old Lady Cao San and Cao Ningcheng with his eyes, he had already said everything that should be said just now, these two should also help him say a few words.

Old lady Cao San squinted her eyes, as if she was asleep.

Cao Ningcheng looked at the tea in his hand seriously, and dialed the tea leaves so seriously, as if he could be stuck with a little unclean, and he couldn't be careless for half a minute. As for Lord Meng's saving gaze, I'm sorry, he didn't see it.

Cao Mo asked again: "Lord Meng was originally the son of the Hu family?"

His mother's surname was Hu.

Master Meng was so angry that his beard turned up, and said, "No, it should be said that your mother is from the Meng family, and Mama Lin next to your grandmother should know the inside story, if you don't believe it, you can go back to the house and ask her." ”

He also did his homework before he came, and the human and physical evidence was all verified.

Cao Mo probably believed in this matter, and his mother was only afraid that it was really related to the Meng family. But so what. His mother is the biological mother of his body, and as a son, he needs to remember this kindness, but what does this have to do with the Meng family.

He was unceremonious and asked, "So what? My mother is the Cao family, and she is buried with my father in the ancestral grave of the Cao family, and she is worshiped by the descendants of my Cao family in the ancestral hall of my Cao family!"

All the words that Master Meng had calculated at home choked in his throat.

He knew that Cao Mo was right, if the Cao family was still there, he would come to the door to recognize his relatives and let the second lady Cao recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, maybe the second lady Cao would have some ideas. But now that Second Lady Cao is dead, and there is no one in the Hu family, for Cao Mo, there is no difference at all whether Second Lady Cao is Cao Hu or Cao Meng.

Cao Mo waved his sleeves, "Lord Meng, thank you for coming to tell me this, there is still something in the house, so I won't greet you anymore." ”

Master Meng was so embarrassed that he trembled with anger, and pointed at Cao Mo: "You don't recognize your ancestors for your mother?

Cao Mo was still calm, his face was still cold, and his voice was frozen: "Since ancient times, I was born and raised by Grace, my mother was born in the Hu family, grew up in the Hu family, and married from the Hu family, she should be the daughter of the Hu family." I would not have done anything that would bring shame on my mother underground, and make her a sinner who forgot the kindness of her grandfather's upbringing. ”

He glanced at Master Meng, and said, "Presumably, there are insiders in the Meng family back then, why don't you find my mother when she was young, or discuss this matter with my grandfather when my mother is about to get married." I could even come to tell the Cao family about it when my parents died. But the Meng family has not taken action in the past few decades, which shows that my mother is not important in the eyes of your Meng family, and it is not even worth mentioning at all. Then how can we bring up the old things again at this time? I have to suspect that Master Meng has a plan!"

Cao Mo's words were loud and clear, occupying the highest point of the Three Platforms and Five Constants, and they were also reasonable.

Master Meng was forced to sweat and couldn't say a word. In the past, it was too late for him to clear up the relationship with the Cao family, so how could he move forward. If you could have known in advance that the Cao family would think that the new emperor would be the mother family, then you would definitely recognize the second lady Cao as soon as possible, and have a good relationship with King An, how could you wait until today.

"Ah Mo!" Old Lady Cao San yawned, he slapped his mouth, as if he had just been woken up by Cao Mo's voice, "You can't be so aggressive when you speak." ”

Cao Mo took a step back and said with a slight chin: "My nephew and grandson have written it down." ”

Old lady Cao San nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Master Meng: "My nephew and daughter-in-law have passed away, how can this descendant make decisions for the affairs of the ancestors." This matter of recognizing the ancestors and returning to the ancestors is only afraid of ...... So be it. ”

"But ......" Lord Meng is really unwilling, he knows that he has left the gate of the Cao family today, but he is afraid that he will really have no way to ask for help.

He was ruthless and said to Cao Mo: "In the past, it was the grievances of the elders, you and I are both juniors, and I can't comment on who is right and wrong, but you are the grandson of my Meng family, this is an ironclad fact." Right now, my Meng family is about to face annihilation, just watch your mother come out of my Meng family's lineage, and seek a way to survive for the Meng family. ”

He also lost face, and even brought some entanglement to the Cao family.

Old lady Cao San immediately sat up straight when he heard this, he was afraid that Cao Mo's next sentence would be even more heart-repellent and directly make Master Meng vomit blood and faint in the Cao family.

Cao Ningcheng also glared at Cao Mo vigorously, telling him not to speak so sharply.

Cao Mo pretended not to see their actions, but he didn't intend to kill Lord Meng on the spot, and said lightly: "Lord Meng's words are exaggerated, how can the Meng Mansion be destroyed? ”

He also glanced at Lord Meng very meaningfully: "I am not as big as the face of the eldest princess's mansion in front of the new emperor, Lord Meng should go to the eldest princess's mansion to ask the eldest princess or find the eldest prince Zhao." ”

At the beginning, Meng Qingyun helped Liu Qianqian send those threatening letters to Ruoyi, and he still remembered this account clearly. Liu Qianqian has been pressed in the prison waiting to be beheaded, how can she let Meng Qingyun go and let her be free in the Meng Mansion!

A man who doesn't seek justice for his wife is not a good man!

Master Meng felt so bitter in his heart, his chest rolled for a while, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. How could he not know this. There is speculation all over Kyoto that the reason why King Rong will give up the throne to King Yu An is that I am afraid that the eldest princess's mansion is also maneuvering. But what the evil girl of his family did, how could he have the face to enter the door of the eldest princess's mansion, he was afraid that if he went, the eldest princess would only fall into the well when she was angry.

Seeing that Lord Meng was crumbling, Cao Mo was not enough, and was about to stimulate two more sentences, Cao Ningcheng immediately got up, rushed over quickly to support Lord Meng, and comforted: "Lord Meng, don't worry, the new emperor will not let go of a thief, nor will he frame a loyal minister, there must be a fair ...... in black and white."

Cao Ningcheng's words of consolation, Master Meng listened to it, and added Cao Mo's previous words and thought deeply. They said that those who don't know won't be implicated, and those who know can't escape, is this implying something? He thought of the eldest princess's mansion mentioned by Cao Mo before. He was transparent all of a sudden, by the way, his own evil girl had a relationship with Liu Qianqian, but he was afraid that he would also mess up this matter. He had to hand over Meng Qingyun as soon as possible to show his innocence.

Lord Meng arched his hand at Cao Ningcheng: "Thank you, Lord Cao, for your advice." He looked back at Cao Mo and sighed: "Thank you, farewell!" After that, he strode away, much more down-to-earth than he was in a hurry before he came.
