Chapter 255: The Secret History of the Harem
Luo Xue rarely gossiped, but Sikong Cangling thought it was quite interesting, so he didn't hide it from her, hugged Luo Xue's arm tightly, and then said, "It's Meng Qifeng." ”
Luo Xue was surprised again, why is the relationship between these people so complicated.
"Meng Qifeng? General? Meng Nianrou's father? Luo Xue asked suspiciously.
At the Xiao meeting, Luo Xue still glanced at Mo Liu's ministers, and as for Meng Qifeng, she also glanced at it.
Judging from his appearance alone, Meng Qifeng looks like a righteous man, even if he is middle-aged, he can still see that he should be an extremely chic and handsome man when he is young.
It is said that Meng Qifeng is loyal to the late general's wife, and now there is only one concubine in the whole house, Luo Ping. And the reason why he accepted Luo Ping as a concubine was because Meng Nianrou's mother, Luo Rou, forced Meng Qi to marry because of her poor health.
Meng Qifeng loves Luo Rou so much, and the names given to Meng Nianrou are all Nianrou, even after Luo Rou's death, he still uses this way to cherish his wife.
Luo Xue didn't expect that he and the queen had a marriage contract before.
However, according to Sikong Cangling's statement, the queen was very happy to get married, so it means that either the queen unilaterally likes Meng Qifeng very much, or the two people like each other, otherwise the queen would not be so happy to marry Meng Qifeng, even because the emperor made her the mother of a country, she was provoked, and she hated her for so many years.
Sikong Cangling hummed in a low voice, and then suddenly said with a smile: "Everyone says that General Meng is an infatuated lover, the general's wife has been dead for so many years, and he has not been seen to continue, even Aunt Luo Pingluo, who has been with him for many years, has not been promoted. In fact, this is just the appearance, but Meng Qifeng is indeed an infatuated person. ”
Sikong Cangling spoke with a smile, but no matter how Luo Xue heard it, she felt that Sikong Cangling's laughter was full of ridicule in it.
Luo Xue was puzzled: "What do you mean?" ”
Sikong Cangling buried his head deep in Luo Xue's shoulder, then closed his eyes and said slowly, "You know what? The queen used to be a talented woman who shocked the capital, and I don't know how many young talents fell for it, even General Meng Da was not surprised to fall in love with the queen back then. Moreover, the two families are world friends, and if the two become husband and wife, the two families are happy to see it. It's not easy to marry someone like this who you like, and the family is satisfied, but these two people are also lucky to meet each other. ”
The queen was also arrogant back then, and at a glance she fell in love with General Meng, who was also famous at the beginning, from among many young talents. Meng Qifeng was also a man of all-round talents in civil and military affairs, and after coming and going, the two families set a marriage contract for the two, but what they didn't expect was that when they were happily ready to get married, the emperor broke up the two of them with a holy decree. ”
Luo Xue unconsciously asked, "What about later?" How did Meng Qifeng marry Luo Rou and love him so deeply? ”
When Sikong Cangling heard Luo Xue's words, he sneered.
Luo Xue frowned, "What are you laughing at?" ”
After laughing, Sikong Cangling said: "I laughed at you for saying the wrong thing, don't say that you love so deeply, Meng Qifeng doesn't like Luo Rou at all." The reason why I married Luo Rou at the beginning was just because Luo Rou's maiden family was a good family at that time, and the two families wanted to marry. Later, Luo Rou's family slowly declined, and Luo Rou's status in the General's Mansion plummeted, when everyone thought that Luo Rou was infinitely beautiful, in fact, Luo Rou's situation may only be known by herself. But what is helpless is that even if life is so painful, Luo Rou can only break her teeth and swallow it in her stomach. ”
Sikong Cangling's words completely subverted Luo Xue's perception of the people in the capital.
So he said in disbelief: "How is it possible? If Meng Qifeng didn't like Luo Rou, then why did he give his daughter such a name? ”
Sikong Cangling couldn't help but reach out and touch the top of Luo Xue's head, feeling the feeling of Luo Xue's silky hair brushing through his palm.
Sikong Cangling did not directly answer Luo Xue's question, but continued to talk about the queen, "The queen was born in a Wenchen family, and her attainments in poetry and books are not low, in addition to the queen's real name is Sun Moyun, she also has a small character called Yun Rou, which few people know, even Sikong Wodi may not know." ”
As soon as Sikong Cangling's words were finished, Luo Xue felt that the whole person was not good, there was too much news she got today, and she really couldn't digest it for a while.
General Meng, who originally thought he was affectionate, was really affectionate, but the object was wrong.
She actually felt strange at the Xiao meeting, the relationship between Meng Nianrou and Meng Qifeng didn't seem to be very good. The two of them sat next to each other, separated by an aisle, but from the beginning to the end, the two of them didn't say a word, which is like a performance to the father and daughter, and it is completely stranger than a stranger.
If Meng Qifeng really loved Meng Nianrou's mother, it would be impossible for him to have that kind of attitude towards Meng Nianrou.
Originally, she was still puzzled by this, but now after listening to Sikong Cangling's words, everything is clear.
This is the secret history hidden in the dark and unable to see the light, Luo Xue now thinks that it is still good for her to agree to Sikong Cangling, at least she has heard so many small stories.
Then again, if it weren't for Sikong Cangling, Luo Xue wouldn't have needed to understand these messy things, and it had nothing to do with her anyway.
However, Luo Xue suddenly thought that Meng Qifeng had this attitude towards Meng Nianrou, and Meng Nianrou didn't feel strange, and even looked down on each other with Meng Qifeng, which may mean that Meng Nianrou also knew the truth.
Seeing that Luo Xue didn't speak, Sikong Cangling decided to tell Luo Xue one more thing, "When Luo Rou died, Meng Nianrou was only a few years old. It is rumored that Luo Rou died of illness because of illness, but in fact, it is not. ”
Luo Xue's curiosity was aroused again, "Could it be that the queen killed her?" ”
According to Luo Xue's guess, since Meng Qifeng and the queen like each other, even if the queen is married to Sikong Wodi, she will definitely not be able to bear that the man she loves the most marries another woman.
Moreover, with the status of the queen, it is quite simple to take Luo Rou's life unknowingly, after all, even if Meng Qifeng knows, he will only hide it for the queen, with such a backup, the queen will definitely be more unscrupulous.
However, Sikong Cangling denied it, "No, it was not the queen who killed Luo Rou, but Meng Qifeng." ”
"What?" Luo Xue was shocked again, it was impossible, at least Luo Rou gave birth to a daughter to him, how could Meng Qifeng kill Luo Rou.
What's more, Luo Rou's existence doesn't seem to hinder him for anything!
Sikong Cangling continued with great certainty: "It was Meng Qi who blocked Luo Rou, and the news I got was that Meng Qi sealed and poisoned Luo Rou. As for this, I don't know if Meng Nianrou knows it, but even if she doesn't know, maybe Meng Nianrou has guessed something, otherwise she wouldn't have married Si Baiyu for so many years, and she hasn't given Meng Qifeng any news. ”
Luo Xue grabbed Sikong Cangling's last sentence, "Do you mean to say that Meng Nianrou married Sikong Bai Yu because Meng Qifeng asked her to be a spy in the past?" ”
Sikong Cangling chuckled, and then said, "Well, that's what it means. ”
Luo Xue had already set off a thousand waves in her heart, she had always thought that Meng Nianrou married him because she liked Si Bai Yu, but she didn't expect that there would be such a reason in it.
However, she believed that Meng Nianrou really liked Si Baiyu, because if a woman likes a man, that kind of infatuated look will never be fake.
Luo Xue calmed down for a few seconds and said, "If there is anything else, you can say it at once!" ”
Sikong Cangling couldn't help but smile when he heard Luo Xue's solemn appearance, "Well, in fact, I have an agreement with Si Baiyu, and after I take revenge, the throne will be handed over to him, I am not suitable to be the emperor, of course I don't want to." ”
"Huh?" Luo Xue couldn't help but raise her voice, "You actually have a connection with Si Baiyu?" But why had she never seen any communication between them?
Sikong Cangling pondered for a moment, and then continued: "Well, Sikong Baiyu is not just an idle prince as people see, in fact, I also think it's very good for him, there are many things he can't do, I will follow to help, anyway, in the end, our purpose is the same." ”
Luo Xue nodded secretly in her heart, Sikong Cangling was not wrong in what she said, from the first time she saw Si Bai Yu, she felt that Si Bai Yu was not as harmless as it seemed on the surface, but there was no direct reason, anyway, it was a kind of directness.
Luo Xue's instincts have always been accurate, and she also trusts her instincts.
Luo Xue suddenly smiled and said, "So, in fact, now you are helping Si Bai Yu do things!" ”
Sikong Cangling couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard Luo Xue's words, why did this sound so coquettish?
But thinking about it, Sikong Cangling stretched his brows again, "Sort of!" ”
Actually, if you think about it, it's really a bit like that.
"But do your loyal men know that you have no interest in the throne?" Luo Xue asked suddenly.
Ming Yi and they are so attentive to assist Sikong Cangling, I am afraid that they also hope that Sikong Cangling can ascend to the throne.
Unexpectedly, Sikong Cangling said: "Well, they know, I said it at the beginning, and I am not here." ”
"Then why are they willing to help you?" Luo Xue didn't understand.
Seeing that Ming Yi and them worked so hard to help Sikong Cangling eliminate all difficulties, was it because they were idle and had nothing to do?
Sikong Cangling didn't answer Luo Xue's question directly, but said, "Then why did Zhu Ren and Zhu Xue help you so much?" ”
Luo Xue secretly rolled her eyes, "Can they compare with Zhu Ren and Zhu Xue?" ”
Sikong Cangling chuckled twice, but he didn't bother with Luo Xue anymore.
Sikong Cangling hugged Luo Xue tightly, he suddenly found that he was not so sad, and after talking so much to Luo Xue, he felt a lot more relaxed.
The two of them lay quietly in the dark on the chaise longue, and neither of them spoke.
After a long time, Luo Xue said tentatively: "Today, why do you drink so much?" ”
Luo Xue has actually been entangled in her heart for a long time, and she doesn't know whether to ask or not, but she is unwilling to hide anything from Sikong Cangling, and besides, this matter has been hidden in Sikong Cangling's heart, and Luo Xue doesn't think it's a good thing.
There is a wound in my heart, rather than slowly boiling it like this, it is better to be simple and rude, cut through the mess quickly, and it will not hurt anymore after the pain.
Sikong Cangling was silent for a while and then spoke, but his voice was low and hoarse.
"I've only lived twice, I saw the people I care about in danger, but I couldn't do anything, at that time, I hated my incompetence so much, if I was strong enough at that time, maybe everything would not be released."
Luo Xue couldn't help but clench the hand on the back of Sikong Cangling's hand.
Sikong Cangling continued: "Once, I watched my mother die in front of me, and I could only watch from a short distance, and I couldn't do anything. I watched her slowly lose her breath before my eyes, and at that moment I really wanted to die with Sikong Wodi, but I couldn't, because I could only be a moth to a fire. ”
"Everyone knows that the dormitory was on fire before I disappeared, and it was those subordinates who desperately rescued me. But few people know where that fire came from. ”
Sikong Cangling was silent for a moment, and continued: "That's right, that fire was indeed set by Sun Moyun, but this doesn't mean that Sikong Wodi doesn't know, what's more, he is happy to see it happen. He didn't send anyone to set it on fire, but he had people block my doors and windows, so that I could only be burned to death inside. ”
Hearing this, Luo Xue finally couldn't help but grit her teeth fiercely, "They really damn it." ”
Sikong Cangling continued: "I knew that there was another group of people who wanted my life, but what I didn't expect was that that person would be Sikong Wodi. By the time I came back again, his wings were already full, and Sikong Wardi did not dare to trouble me easily, because he knew that he alone could not take my life. ”
"Later, the border was in an emergency, I took the initiative to ask Ying to go to the frontier, and Sikong Wodi actually secretly united with the generals of Yanshu and Wojun in order to kill me, wanting to kill me. I have experienced the most difficult battle, three armies besieged, one of which turned out to be our 'own people'. ”
Sikong Cangling bit the three words of his own person very hard.
"But in the end, we won." Sikong Cangling sneered, "Sikong Wodi has exhausted his scheming, but he has forgotten that although the three armies are united, they are not aligned, and it is too easy for me to deal with such a temporary alliance." (To be continued.) )
