137 Rumors

Here the old lady walked with Changle in front, and Mrs. Guo and Zhu Yue followed behind. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

When the old lady arrived, all the ladies had already gathered in the pavilion, sitting and drinking tea and eating melons and fruits, while admiring the different forms of hibiscus.

The sun is shining, lotus leaves and lotus lotus, hibiscus flowers are graceful and jade, pink, white, red, the flowers are heroic and upright, standing proudly in thousands of lotus leaves, making people love and pity.

The air was a little humid and hot, and the maidservants next to him were fanning gently, and Mrs. Marquis Changling and Mrs. Yanwang were sitting in the nearest place and talking boredly.

Mrs. Marquis of Changling wore a red woven gold peony dress, sat in the pavilion, and compared Mrs. Yanwang on the head.

While the two of them were talking, they saw the old lady, and Zhang, who was sitting on the side, said with a smile: "Mother, the old lady Du has arrived." ”

When the old lady first arrived at the Qingfeng Pavilion, she smiled while walking: "I came late and didn't welcome distant guests, and I missed the welcome." ”

The ladies stood up to greet each other.

Mrs. Marquis Changling smiled: "The old lady is polite. Today is your birthday feast, and we are all here to touch your joy. ”

When the Marquis of Changling was young, she was proposed by Mrs. Du of Taizu to marry the Marquis of Changling, that is, Xia Linshang, the general of the southern expedition who died early. She is the sister of Yuanhou Zhu Zhen, the lord of Deyang Township, and the aunt of Zhu Shuang, the general of the auxiliary minister.

Her son, Xia Linxuan, the general of Zhengxi, inherited his father's title, and when he was weak, he had been appointed as a squire of the Yellow Gate, and Emperor Qi Ming did not like him when he was alive, so he was demoted to Yulin Supervisor.

It wasn't until after the banner king ascended the throne that he was promoted all the way to the general of Zhengxi, but since the failure of the battle of Luogu planned with his cousin general Zhu Shuang, he was greatly disappointed and became the laughing stock of Kyoto. 、

And Mrs. Marquis Changling guarded her son's life, and she became the laughing stock of others behind her back.

Both mother and son are pathetic and become a laughing stock at the same time for different reasons.

Her daughter Xia Linhui is the aforementioned Taifu's eldest son, Nangong Shi, who left five daughters to die as the wife of the dead.

Mrs. Marquis Changling finally came out of the pain of losing her daughter this time, and brought her daughter-in-law Li Huigu to celebrate her birthday.

Unexpectedly, at the banquet, I met my son-in-law Nangong Shi's Continuation of Yang Huiyu, Mrs. Xia Lin also inquired about the woman's origin, Yang Huiyu is the daughter of Shangdang Taishou Yang, and her mother Cai is the eldest daughter of Cai Yong, a famous scholar in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the sister of Cai Xueji.

Such an official family can be described as prominent, and the most important thing is that it has nothing to do with the Zhu family.

Mrs. Marquis Changling knew that her daughter had died strangely, but she dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and she gritted her teeth with hatred for her son-in-law in her heart, so she naturally looked down on his third wife.

Mrs. Changling Hou saw that Yang Huiyu was in a panic, so she came out first to chat with Mrs. Du.

The ladies who stayed at the banquet gathered around Mrs. Yang Huiyu and chatted softly.

"I heard that the old lady of Changling Marquis was not favored when she was young, and the Marquis of Changling was very cold to her, she relied on herself to be the princess of the Zhu family, and ran to the old lady Du to complain, Mrs. Du just said a word to Empress Wuxuan, and ordered Emperor Gao Zuwen to strangle all the concubines of the Marquis of Changling, causing the Marquis of Changling to be in a trance all day long for the concubine, and died of depression in less than a year. It's just a jealous woman! "It was the widowed Zhong of Yingchuan who spoke.

Zhong had two sons, the eldest son, Zhong Yu, who inherited the title of Marquis of Dingling and married Hanoi Zhang.

The second son is not married, and the Zhong family intends to be a wall grass, and there is a balance in the party, and the Zhu family and the Nangong family are married, and each of the two factions marries a daughter, so that he can protect himself one day.

But Zhong has a problem with chewing the root of her tongue, and her eldest daughter-in-law Zhang followed her mother-in-law's problem, so as to add oil and vinegar to hearsay.

Yang Huiyu smiled and sighed: "Then speaking of which, she is equivalent to killing her husband in disguise?" ”

Yang Huiyu has a superior posture and has never moved around with Zhu Room.

This time, I heard that Mrs. Marquis Changling was coming, and she deliberately came to walk around to embarrass her.

Everyone knows that the daughter of the Marquis of Changling died of poisoned wine by mistake, and she came later, and the son of the Marquis of Changling, Xia Linxuan, has recently targeted her husband everywhere, and Yang Huiyu intends to extinguish her arrogance.

"I heard that her son failed to defeat Shu three years ago, and everyone laughed at him for being a defeated general, but he didn't take it seriously." Yang Huiyu added.

Zhang also smiled: "Yes, Lao Tzu Niang and her son have become a big joke, I didn't expect her to dare to come!" ”

Yang Huiyu smiled and said nothing, watching the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Marquis of Changling walk out of the hall surrounded by a bunch of pro-Zhu ladies. It is still being entertained by Mrs. Ding.

In the breezy pavilion, Mrs. Du saw that Mrs. Marquis of Changling was in good spirits, and said with a smile: "The lotus flowers in the garden have bloomed, please come and enjoy them." ”

Zhu Xuan looked at the lotus pink and cute, the lotus fragrance was refreshing, and the mood was full, this season of the year is the best time to enjoy the lotus. Moreover, my grandmother received a new variety of Yat-sen lotus from the palace, with stems twice as long as ordinary ones, and petals larger and more numerous than ordinary ones, standing in the middle of the water like a beauty.

Mrs. Marquis Changling sighed: "This breed is very rare, and it is the first time I have seen it." ”

Mrs. Guo said with a smile: "This is a variety given by the Queen Mother, and it is much taller than other lotus flowers when it is planted in spring this year." ”

"It turned out to be the reward of the current Queen Mother, no wonder it is a hundred times better than usual." Li Huigu, the daughter-in-law of Mrs. Marquis of Changling, also interjected.

Mrs. Guo was quite proud.

The Queen Mother only rewarded her, and no one else had it.

"A few days ago, I begged the Queen Mother for it, but the Queen Mother was not willing to give it up, which shows how much the Queen Mother loves Mrs. Guo." Mrs. Zhen on the side said with a smile.

Taiwei Jiang Ji is a veteran of the four dynasties, and his wife Zhen is from a famous family, very close to the Zhu family, more than fifty people, and Mrs. Guo of the same age can be discussed.

Zhen said this because he heard that Mrs. Du had recently fallen out of favor with Mrs. Guo because of a concubine, and Mrs. Guo was deprived of the right to take charge.

Mrs. Du smiled faintly and said, "I heard that the Queen Mother recently worshipped the Buddha, and specially invited Mrs. Zhen to visit together. ”

Zhen smiled: "You can't hide anything from the old lady's eyes." ”

A few ladies were talking about the scene, and Zhu Xuan listened silently on the side without any interest.

At this moment, one of the ladies spoke: "Mrs. Guo, this is your eldest daughter, right?" It looks very similar to Mrs. Guo. ”

Zhu Xuan raised his eyes and looked at the speaker, who was a lady in her forties, and she should be a first-class order based on her clothes.

It is rare to have a first-class edict in the Zhu Chamber.

The old lady liked to listen to this kind of talk very much, but Mrs. Guo was quite embarrassed, and said with a smile: "My eldest daughter just went out." This is my little daughter Yi'an. Yi An quickly met Mrs. Yan Wang. ”

Zhu Yue stepped forward and shook it.

Mrs. Yan Wang was a little embarrassed, looking at this appearance, she was born in the city and the country, but she was not Mrs. Guo's daughter, could it be the rumored true and kind Zhu Xuan.

"It turned out to be - Yi'an." Mrs. Yan Wang smiled awkwardly, turned back to talk to the other ladies, and ignored her no more.

Zhu Yue smiled faintly, didn't say anything, and silently retreated behind the old lady.

Zhang, who walked slowly, said with a smile: "The old lady is really happy to enjoy the lotus here, and I will also join in the fun." ”

When Mrs. Du saw that it was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhong family, she said, "Where is your mother-in-law?" ”

"My mother-in-law is in the Zhengde Hall in front, I came out to be lazy, and I came over when I saw the excitement here." Zhang said with a smile.

In fact, Zhong called her, and Zhong meant that both ends should be enveloped.

Zhang said and sat down, saw Mrs. Marquis of Changling and said with a smile: "When I came from Qi County, I heard that something was related to Mrs. Marquis of Changling, and it was not a bad thing, but I was a little puzzled, and I specially wanted to tell Mrs. ”

Mrs. Marquis Changling was a little unhappy when she saw Zhang, and her mouth had already been tightly pursed.

Suddenly, I heard her talking nonsense here, and I was not happy, but because everyone was present, I restrained my displeasure, diverted the topic, and said: "Today is the old lady's birthday banquet, if you say some irrelevant gossip, don't say it." ”

Zhang ignored her.

Because all the ladies like to listen to the words of "gossip", they all laughed and said, "What's the matter, let's take a look." ”

Zhang said: "When I was in Qi County, I met a woman, and that person said something crazy, why her daughter finally became a princess, and she was going to marry a famous man in the world." I've been saying this stupidly and stupidly, so that people can't help but listen to it, I don't want to care about it. ”

"What does this have to do with Mrs. Marquis Changling?" Mrs. Guo was puzzled.

Zhang smiled: "Why is it okay? The woman's appearance is very similar to that of the concubine of the Marquis of Changling, and her surname is Fang. ”

At the mention of the word "room", the faces of Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Changling Hou changed suddenly.

Mrs. Du didn't want to recall the past, so she separated the parties first, so she turned back to Zhu Yue and said, "You go and play with your eldest sister." ”

Zhu Yue originally wanted to hear Zhang's words, because her biological mother was surnamed Fang.

There would be no such coincidence in the world, but the old lady spoke, and she had to leave.

"Old lady, such a peugeot granddaughter, why are you willing to call her a kiss?" Zhang noticed Zhu Yu at this time and pretended to be distressed. Who doesn't know that Zhu Yue was called to kiss because of indiscretion!

Old Madam Du's face was solemn and ignored her.

Mrs. Guo seemed to smile and said: "It is Zhu Jun's blessing to be able to contribute to Daqi, what is there to be reluctant to do." ”

Several people had forgotten the uncertain face of the Marquis of Changling in their conversation.

She was sure the woman was dead.

How could the Zhang family meet a similar-looking woman surnamed Fang in Qi County?

"What Mrs. Zhang said was just a strange thing. Could it be that Mrs. Marquis Changling still listened to the joke? The old lady smiled lightly.

She understood in her heart the uneasiness in the heart of the Marquis of Changling.

When Emperor Ming ordered someone to strangle the concubine of the Marquis of Changling, Mrs. Du was also a participant in disguise.

Originally, I just wanted to remedy the relationship between Changling Hou and his wife, but what I didn't expect was that as soon as the woman died, Changling Hou collapsed, and his life was already whimpering within a year.

Zhang also smiled: "Yes, there are many people with the surname Fang in the world, I heard that there was a woman surnamed Fang in the old lady's mansion who unfortunately disappeared, and there was a lot of trouble, which caused the whole of Kyoto to know about it." ”

"Mrs. Zhang, what the hell do you mean!" Mrs. Guo was obviously tired of hearing it, and her face was dissatisfied, "This is all old things, what are you doing here!" ”

Zhang smiled and said slowly: "Don't mind Mrs. Guo, it's all because I talk a lot, and I slipped away for a while." Because I heard this strange thing, I originally wanted to tell Mrs. Marquis of Changling, but I didn't expect to get involved in the family affairs of King Pei's Mansion, please forgive me. ”

Mrs. Guo scolded the Zhang family for being troubled in her heart, and said lightly in her mouth: "You have a lot of stories in your belly, and you should pick up a good one to say, and you are not a three-year-old child, how can you take out everything regardless of taboos!" And these are things that come out of nowhere, and your words are really a dead man. ”

Zhang Shi hurriedly said humbly: "Mrs. Guo taught a lesson. I'm talking too much. ”

She had opened her mouth to beg for mercy, and Mrs. Guo hummed and forgave her for showing her generosity.

Mrs. Guo glanced at the old lady and saw that her mother-in-law had a solemn face, and seemed to have some nostalgia for Zhang.

Zhang's words were indiscriminate, which made the good atmosphere a little stiff.

Zhu Yue walked not far away, looked back at the pavilion again, and saw that everyone was still pulling the family routine, thinking about Zhang's words in his heart.

Could the woman surnamed Fang be her biological mother?

Once upon a time, I heard the maidservants mention that it seemed that her biological mother had been missing for many years, and some said that she was dead.

But not exactly.

Could the woman surnamed Fang that Mrs. Zhang said be her biological mother?

Zhu Xuan had lost interest in the things around him, and thought thoughtfully about the woman surnamed Fang that Mrs. Zhang had just mentioned.

Lang Yue gently pulled the corner of Zhu Yue's clothes, she came back to her senses, and saw Lang Yue glancing at her, she followed Lang Yue's gaze, looked from afar, and saw that the sixth sister Zhu Bi was following behind Uncle Ming, looking endless.

Uncle Ming was obviously disgusted by this entanglement, and with displeasure on his face, he kept walking in their direction.

Zhu Xuan hurriedly turned behind the rocks to avoid the two of them.

As soon as Uncle Ming walked behind the rocks at night, Zhu Bi, who had always been commanding, couldn't help but say angrily: "What do you mean? Why don't you even look at me? ”

Zhu Xuan was taken aback when he heard this.

Zhu Bi stepped forward in three steps and two steps, his tone became softened again, and said: "My sister is going to get married in a few days, I advise you to die of this heart, Ming Gongzi, is it not worthy of you for the eldest daughter of Prince Pei to marry?" ”

Zhu Yue was shocked again, and he didn't know what Uncle Ming said to the sixth sister, which made the sixth sister so angry.

Uncle Ming wore a robe with a silver pattern at night, his hair was tied up, and he was pinned with a white fat jade hairpin, which made him look even clearer.

No matter where he goes, he becomes a scenery in his own right.

Zhu Bi rushed forward and pulled his wide sleeves from behind.

"Lord Letting, please respect yourself." Uncle Ming shook off her hand and took a big step forward, distanced himself from her.

"Are you still afraid that I won't succeed? Ming Gongzi, my sister is not innocent, the reason why the old lady and my mother asked me to marry you is because of this, it is all for your good. Zhu Bi said with a smile.

Zhu Xuan, who was behind the rocks, heard this, and pinched the moss between the cracks in the stones with his fingers.

She originally wanted to leave a good impression on Uncle Ming's night, but she didn't expect Zhu Bi to tell Uncle Ming about her in a few words. (To be continued.) )
