Chapter 66: Twenty-Seven Day 3
When he walked out of the gate of the mourning hall and saw the people who were still kneeling outside the mourning hall, Leng Qing suddenly remembered that Liang Ruming had just seemed to be ...... I haven't shouted "Pingshen" all the time!! Without Liang Ruming's instructions, these people didn't dare to get up without permission...... This...... This is to make these people kneel here to the old posture of the heavens and the earth???
In stark contrast to the people who knelt on the ground, Liang Shenghao, Liang Shengwen, Liang Shengxiao, Liang Shengfeng and Liang Shengwu stood in front of the gate of the mourning hall. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Because today is the day of the funeral of Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying, although the palace maids, eunuchs, and guards who work in the prince's mansion are still wearing ordinary clothes, each of them has a white silk tied around their waists, and the two ends of the white silk on each person's waist intersect on the right side of the waist and tie it into a dead knot, and the rest of the white silk hangs down to the knees.
Liang Shenghao, Liang Shengwen, Liang Shengxiao, Liang Shengfeng and Liang Shengwu did not wear white silk around their waists, but they wore plain clothes. It's not a mourning dress, but the color is white and light, and the system is relatively simple.
Speaking of which, Leng Qing, as Liang Ruming's concubine, although she is the "head of the nine concubines", her status is not too low, but she is also a "concubine", not even a "concubine", so Leng Qing was originally not qualified to come to the prince's mansion today to send funerals to Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying. But......
Leng Qing was personally brought to the prince's mansion by Liang Ruming, and Liang Ruming's move undoubtedly represents Liang Ruming's own attitude......
Liang Shengde is the prince of Liang and the son of Liang Ruming; Cheng Yiying is the princess of Liang and the daughter-in-law of Liang Ruming! and Liang Ruming is the father of Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying...... Since Liang Ruming said that Leng Qing could come to the funeral for Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying, who would dare to say that Leng Qing can't? ?
Originally, according to Leng Qing's meaning, Leng Qing originally wanted to wear mourning clothes to come to the prince's mansion today.
After all, Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying also helped Leng Qing a lot - at the foot of Qin Mountain, if it wasn't for Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying helping each other, they took the risk to bring Leng Qing back to Daliang...... Even if Liang Shengxiao saved Leng Qing at that time, he couldn't save Leng Qing's life.
So Leng Qing thought about it again and again, and wanted to wear filial piety for Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying once today. It's a pity-
According to the funeral system of the Daliang royal family, unless the emperor, queen, and queen mother pass away, and the palace has to wear mourning clothes, the rest of the royal family is deceased, even if the prince dies, only his direct descendants and younger generations can wear mourning clothes for him, and the brothers and sisters of the same generation cannot wear mourning clothes for them, but can only wear "plain clothes".
Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying's only two children were hidden by Leng Qing, and according to the funeral system of the Liang royal family, Liang Shengde's brothers and sisters were not allowed to wear mourning clothes for Liang Shengde...... In other words, Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying went to the funeral today, but they didn't even have a person who wore linen and filial piety in front of the spirit......
But since Liang Shengde's brothers and sisters are not allowed to wear mourning clothes for Liang Shengde, Leng Qing, as the concubine of Liang Shengde's father, really has to be counted, Leng Qing can still be regarded as the "elder" of Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying!
With such a slightly embarrassing status, how can Leng Qing wear mourning clothes for Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying?
So in the end, under Zhang Xuanfu's timely reminder, Leng Qing couldn't really wear mourning clothes, so she could only retreat to the next best.
Therefore, like Liang Shenghao, Liang Shengwen, Liang Shengfeng, Liang Shengwu and Liang Shengxiao, Leng Qing is also wearing a plain dress today - a gold silk white pattern epiphany rain silk brocade skirt.
Although this brocade skirt is not too plain because of the gold wire inlay, but fortunately, Leng Qing also wore a pure white cloak on her shoulders, which just covered the gold and white epiphany rain silk brocade skirt on Leng Qing's body. And Leng Qing's coiled hair bun has no other hair accessories except for a few plain and elegant bead flowers.
Having said that, when she was in the mourning hall before, because Liang Shengxiao was also there, Leng Qing didn't raise her head much, and kept standing quietly beside Liang Ruming, quite dutifully acting as a "humanoid crutch".
It wasn't until she left the mourning hall at this time that Leng Qing noticed that the injured left arm that Liang Shengxiao had hung in front of her had been put down, but a piece of white gauze was still faintly exposed under the sleeve of Liang Shengxiao's left wrist......
Counting carefully, it has been 23 days since the day Liang Shengxiao and Liang Shengde were attacked at the border, but the gauze on Liang Shengxiao's left wrist has not been removed......
Leng Qing really couldn't imagine how many injuries Liang Shengxiao had to suffer before she needed to be wrapped in gauze for more than 20 days......
Although I feel a little sorry for Liang Shengxiao's injuries, I ...... Just think of Liang Shengde in the mourning hall lying behind her now...... Leng Qing suddenly felt that Liang Shengxiao's injuries were nothing......
As long as a person is alive, no matter how serious the injury is, there will always be a day when he will be healed.
The real horror is the death of man...... It was a missing arm and a broken leg due to serious injuries...... That's better than dying......
As long as people are alive, there is still hope for everything. But if even if you lose your life, even if the surface of your body is unscathed, you will never be able to open your eyes again and realize any of your wishes and dreams......
Although Leng Qing was also saddened by Liang Shengde's death, and also felt sad and indignant about Liang Shengde's life, she ...... People are always selfish......
Compared with Liang Shengde, who went to another world and will sleep underground forever, Leng Qing suddenly felt a little lucky-
Fortunately, Liang Shengxiao was only injured, at least her life is still alive...... As long as life is still alive and people are alive, they are stronger than anything else!
Man, once you die, all the joys, troubles, sorrows, obsessions, desires, and can't let go of life will all disappear, and nothing will be left and nothing will be taken away.
Only by living can we have everything, and only by living can we have the last word.
In this world, there is really nothing luckier and happier than being alive!
And such a simple truth can only be understood by those who have experienced life and death......
Thinking about things in her mind, Leng Qing's eyes gradually moved away from Liang Shengxiao's left hand hanging by her side, and she raised her head slightly...... Caught off guard, Leng Qing looked at Liang Shengxiao, who had been quietly watching her......
Leng Qing had been hanging her head before, but Leng Qing didn't know how long Liang Shengxiao had been watching her quietly like this, maybe ...... As long as she had stared at his injured left hand......
On that side, suddenly and Leng Qing's eyes met, Liang Shengxiao was a little surprised, but Liang Shengxiao only raised her eyebrows slightly, but did not look away, and still stubbornly looked at Leng Qing......
Thereupon...... As soon as Liang Shenghao and Liang Shengwen turned their heads, they saw Leng Qing and Liang Shengxiao, who were standing in front of the gate of the mourning hall on the left and right, quietly watching each other from the air......
Speaking of which, Liang Shengxiao has been away from Beijing for ten years, and did not return to Beijing until after the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, and Liang Shengxiao is the son of Gu Linyu, the current queen of Liang...... This has led to Liang Shengxiao's every move since he returned to Beijing, and his every move has attracted special attention.
Especially Liang Shengxiao's brothers-Liang Shenghao, Liang Shengwen, and Liang Shengfeng, they not only pay special attention to Liang Shengxiao's words and deeds, but they are almost about to put their eyes on Liang Shengxiao - it can almost be said that what Liang Shengxiao did on the front foot, Liang Shenghao, Liang Shengwen, and Liang Shengfeng can all know clearly on the back foot!
Therefore, Liang Shengxiao once went to the palace to ask Liang Ruming and Gu Linyu to marry "Leng Xin, the daughter of the Leng family, is the concubine of Prince Xiao", not only Liang Shenghao knows, but Liang Shengwen and Liang Shengfeng naturally also know.
It is precisely because he knew that Liang Shengxiao had entered the palace to marry Leng Qing...... Although I don't know why Leng Qing later entered the palace and became the concubine of their father, and directly became the "head of the nine concubines", but because of the affection between brothers, Liang Shenghao and Liang Shengwen saw this, and finally did not say anything rationally, but silently turned their eyes away from Liang Shengxiao and Leng Qing.
On the contrary, it is Liang Shengfeng, this is really a master who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, he is simply everywhere-
Seeing Liang Shengfeng seeing Liang Shengxiao and Leng Qing quietly looking at each other, Liang Shengfeng immediately walked to Liang Shengxiao's side, raised a hand, and hugged Liang Shengxiao's shoulders with a pair of brothers.
was hugged by Liang Shengfeng's shoulders, Liang Shengxiao frowned slightly, but in the end he did not refuse.
But Liang Shengfeng didn't pay attention to Liang Shengxiao's reaction, but looked at Leng Qing who was standing opposite him and Liang Shengxiao with a smile on his lips, but said to Liang Shengxiao with malice: "Seventh brother, this is our father's new Zhaoyi, my father has been doting on her recently, and I heard that he also let her stay in Yishu Hall every night...... But the seventh brother stared at his father's woman so affectionately...... If this gets out...... I wonder how those officials will make a fuss?"
Although Liang Shengfeng's words were smiling, they were full of heart-wrenching words!
As soon as Liang Shengfeng said this, not only Liang Shengxiao and Leng Qing, who were targeted by Liang Shengfeng's words, frowned together, but even Liang Shenghao and Liang Shengwen, who were standing behind Liang Shengfeng and Liang Shengxiao, also changed their faces in unison.
There were also those palace guards kneeling near the mourning hall, because the distance was close, they could more or less hear Liang Shengfeng's words.
And the reaction of those palace guards to Liang Shengfeng's words...... He immediately buried his head, which was already kneeling on the ground, even lower, and almost put his face on the ground......
If there is a big enough gap in the ground, those who hear Liang Shengfeng's words will be afraid that they will want to go into the crack in the ground to hide-
Liang Shengfeng is a prince, and he is not afraid of Liang Ruming's punishment...... These low-status palace people are terrible to death!!
Only the youngest Liang Shengwu didn't understand the deep meaning of Liang Shengfeng's words, he only tilted his head in ignorance, and looked at the two brothers Liang Shenghao and Liang Shengwen who were standing beside him with puzzled eyes......
It is true that if Liang Shengfeng's words were only aimed at Liang Shengxiao alone, Liang Shengxiao might have endured it silently.
But it's ...... Liang Shengfeng's heart-wrenching words also involved Leng Qing...... It is impossible for Liang Shengxiao to let Liang Shengfeng say such a heart-wrenching remark unscrupulously......
Although Liang Shengxiao has a gentle personality and a weak temperament, in the end, he is from a royal family, and he is not willing to be humiliated and kneaded. Especially Liang Shengfeng is not the only one targeting him this time......
Liang Shengxiao is not a saint, just a mortal with a noble status, and he will also have love, hate, hatred, and stupidity.
For Leng Qing's entry into the palace to serve the king...... Although Liang Shengxiao has resentment in her heart, she still loves more than she resents after all......
If Leng Qing can be maintained, Liang Shengxiao will still try his best to maintain it......
However, just when Liang Shengxiao opened his mouth and wanted to reprimand Liang Shengfeng, Liang Shenghao, who was standing behind the two, spoke up one step faster than Liang Shengxiao, and reprimanded Liang Shengfeng who was facing away from him in a cold tone: "Liang Shengfeng." Today is the day of the funeral of the eldest brother and the crown princess, if you don't want to stay in this prince's mansion, get out of this king now. ”
Although Liang Shenghao's tone was as cold as ever, and his voice was as calm as ever, as if he was talking normally, several people present could hear it-Liang Shenghao was angry.
Although Liang Shenghao has always regarded himself as "this king", when calling his royal brothers, Liang Shenghao shouted their ranking among the princes and princesses-
For example, Liang Shengwen is the sixth prince, so Liang Shenghao shouts "old six" when he shouts Liang Shengwen; Liang Shengxiao is the seventh prince, so Liang Shenghao shouts "old seven" when he calls Liang Shengxiao; Liang Shengwu is the fourteenth prince, and he is also the youngest prince among all the princes of Liang Ruming, so Liang Shenghao shouts "little fourteen" when he calls Liang Shengwu......
Now Liang Shenghao actually called Liang Shengfeng by name and surname...... It is enough to prove how angry Liang Shenghao is at this time!
Speaking of which, Leng Qing has never been a soft person who can be bullied, a few days ago when Leng Qing and Mu Ziru came to the prince's mansion, Leng Qing was inexplicably targeted by Liang Shengfeng, and this time Liang Shengfeng inexplicably targeted Leng Qing......
was targeted by Liang Shengfeng so inexplicably, Leng Qing endured it once and already gave Liang Shengfeng face, how can he endure Liang Shengfeng for the second time? ?
Therefore, after Liang Shengfeng's heart-wrenching words were finished, Leng Qing originally wanted to refute Liang Shengfeng.
But now that I see Liang Shenghao, I have opened my mouth to scold Liang Shengfeng...... Leng Qing and Liang Shengxiao glanced at each other silently, and in the end, both of them chose to remain silent very wisely.
With Liang Shenghao's big Buddha here, Liang Shengfeng can toss no matter how much he can, but he is just a loach in the pond - he can't turn up the big waves.
And in the face of Liang Shenghao's anger, Liang Shengfeng was obviously anxious-
Letting go of the arm that was holding Liang Shengxiao's shoulder, Liang Shengfeng turned around and complained to Liang Shenghao: "Why does the third brother protect this woman everywhere!"
Maybe he was afraid that Liang Ruming was in the mourning hall next to him, lest Liang Ruming would hear their voices, but Liang Shengfeng's voice didn't dare to be too big, even if he was resentful, he suppressed his voice.
On that side, Liang Shenghao did not answer Liang Shengfeng's words positively, perhaps because he didn't bother to answer at all.
I saw Liang Shenghao looking down at Liang Shengfeng with a contemptuous attitude, and said in a disdainful and disdainful tone: "This king has never been waiting to see you since he was a child, and you only know it today? A person who doesn't know anything, only makes trouble everywhere, you also deserve to be called 'Lord'!"
Liang Shenghao's words were a bit ruthless, even more ruthless than what Liang Ruming said to Liang Shengfeng before, "When was the last time you entered the palace?
