Mrs. Ding smiled: "That's for sure." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

After Zhu Ji and Zhu Zong heard that their mother had returned, they had mixed joys and sorrows and cried together.

On the eighth day of August in the ninth year of Zhengshi, Zhu Zong married his relatives, and married the daughter of the merchant family as Mrs. Ding wished, Zhu Zong began to engage in business, and later became a famous salt merchant.

On October 22 of the ninth year of Zhengshi, Nangong Changshan got married. The night before Chang Shan got married, he once told Zhu Yue: "Although I don't like it, my mother said that all men in this world are the same." Either marry an ugly person who no one wants to gain sincerity, or marry someone who is a good family or even a better family and harvest material. ”

Tsuneyama chose the latter.

The fourth day of the first month of the first ten years of the first month was married to the lord of Yi'an of Peiwangfu.

Prior to this, Yi'an had not waited for Uncle Zhao's request that "no matter what, you must agree".

She ushered in her wedding in fear.

In the sound of firecrackers, Zhu Yue got married smoothly in the obstruction of the owner of Changle Pavilion.

Mrs. Guo's "next turn will be you" did not come true as she wished.

Chuxue and Shaoxue, Yuxiang and Langyue, and Chongbi are together as wedding girls.

She finally married Ming Kang.

On the night of the candles in the cave room, Mingkang was called by Nangong Zhao to be busy with some urgent official business, Zhu Xuan sighed and stayed alone in the cave room until dawn.

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Mingkang still did not return, and I heard that the emperor was going to the tomb of Emperor Zhu Rui of Qi Ming Ninety Miles south of the city - Gaotan Mausoleum to worship.

The hosta in Zhu Yue's hand fell to the ground and fell into two.

She went to find Uncle Zhao, and Xiao Duzi said that Uncle Zhao had something to do.

The old lady of Nangong Mansion suddenly got better this day and hurried to the palace.

When the Queen Mother heard that the people of the Emperor's Uncle Party had been dispatched, Zhu Shuang, Zhu Xi, and Zhu Xun all accompanied the emperor out of the city, and stood up from the couch suddenly, with joy in their eyes.

"The emperor said that the queen mother should leave the palace quickly. The emperor will almost return to the palace. ”

The Queen Mother didn't think that leaving the palace was the best choice. She thought for a moment and said, "General Xuanshi." ”

Nangong Shi didn't know what agreement he had reached with the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother supported them on the side of the Qing monarch.

The most important thing is that Nangong Yi has also recovered from his illness, and all the people were in good spirits after seeing the old lady of Nangong Mansion.

People from Nangong Mansion

With lightning speed, with the more than 3,000 dead soldiers who had been raised for many years, they quickly took control of Kyoto. Under the banner of the Queen Mother, Nangong Yi quickly took over the painstakingly managed military power in Zhu Shuang's hands.

All the gates of Kyoto are also closed on the sixth day of the first lunar month.

When the people of Pei Wangfu were complaining about the inconvenience of closing the city gate to buy vegetables, the people of Nangong Mansion were already leading the army out of the city and occupying the pontoon bridge in Luoshui, cutting off the return route of the imperial uncle.

Zhu Yu has not seen Mingkang since he married into the Ming Mansion and since he was newly married.

Although Yuka and the others have been complaining, she knows that what Uncle Zhao has done has exceeded her imagination.

She didn't know about the showdown outside the Imperial City, but she knew the outcome.

When the imperial uncle Zhu Shuang got the retribution he deserved, the people in Kyoto actually talked about it.

But they don't know that happiness is based on more intense suffering.

After Zhu Shuang's house was raided, the party headed by him was also suppressed in this Gaotanling incident.

"The three tribes have been uprooted, and the heads of three thousand people are ah. It's horrible! The faces of the people on the street began to become solemn, and they whispered whether Nangong Mansion had done it.

After the matter calmed down, the Queen Mother rewarded her merits.

Nangong Mansion monopolized the power of the court.

This out of the praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind, and it is used flexibly by Nangong Mansion.

Mingkang's request to leave his post and live in seclusion in Shanyang was approved by Nangong Shi.

Zhu Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Nangong Shi didn't like her, but now that the purpose of Nangong Mansion has been achieved, he doesn't care about a literati like Mingkang.

As long as Mingkang and Zhu Xuan have a strong relationship, his second brother can only die.

Mingkang felt guilty about Zhu Xuan.

The bride has been hanging on the wedding night, and this kind of thing is always joked about by Mrs. Ming.

When Mingkang took her to live in seclusion in Shanyang, the gossip stopped.

In fact, the days of Sanyang are not peaceful.

When Miss Yuan Si and Yang Liu came to visit them, Lu An also came.

Just as everyone was drinking and talking, the sound of horses' hooves was heard not far away.

Everyone's faces changed in shock.

It's Zhao Hui.

Zhu Xuan's fingertips were cold.

When Zhao Hui's men approached, Zhao Hui wanted to say a few words to Ming Kang, but Zhu Hui saw that his husband had no intention of talking to him, so Zhu Hui hurriedly said: "Everyone who comes is a guest, Zhao Gongzi, please take a seat." ”

Zhao Hui came to visit Zhu Yue on the order of Nangong Zhao.

Zhao Hui smiled lightly and glanced at Mingkang, who had not expressed himself, nodded at Zhu Xuan, and was about to sit down, seeing that there was no stool.

When Zhu Yue was about to get up and move a stool for her, Mingkang stopped: "Sit down!" ”

The faces of the people at the banquet were not very good-looking.

Zhao Hui was angry in his heart, thinking that his dignified lieutenant Si Li, Nangong Zhao's confidant and favorite minister, was humiliated by a civilian who did not have any official position, which was really hateful.

Zhao Hui looked coldly and was about to leave for a while.

Mingkang's faint voice came from his ears: "What did you hear to come here?" What do you see and want to leave? ”

"Hear what you hear, see what you see, and depart." Zhao Hui snorted coldly and flicked his sleeves and left.

Looking at Zhao Hui's suppressed figure leaving, Zhu Yu worried: "He will hold a grudge against you." ”

Mingkang had already started chatting with Lu An.

At this moment, an attendant ran up and cried, "Young master." ”

"What's the matter?" Lu An's glass of wine hadn't fallen yet, and he couldn't help frowning when he looked at Jiading.

"The young lady was raped."

"What!" Lu An suddenly bounced up from his chair.

The attendant said, "Also, the young lady hanged herself." ”

Lu An almost collapsed.

Ming Kang accompanied him to deal with the aftermath, and just as Lu An was about to expose his brother to Jing Zhaoyi, Jing Zhaoyi's people tied up Lu An, who had just entered the door, and took him away.

Mingkang was indignant and wrote the "Letter of Breaking Friendship with Lu Changyi", in which he angrily denounced Lu Changyi's animal behavior.

When Zhu Yue saw the letter, his heart sank.

She said worriedly: "Can you ruin this letter, the matter has come to this, you have to think about the living." ”

Mingkang asked people to send the letter to Lu Xun.

Things are going in a direction she doesn't want.

Will Uncle Zhao forgive?

Not long after the letter was sent, Zhao Hui came again.

This time he was menacing, and came with a group of guards to arrest Mingkang.

In the tugging, the guards had already pushed her to the ground and took Mingkang away.

At the end, Zhao Hui dropped a sentence: "The township master, please move to the shore of Sansheng Lake." ”

Someone is waiting for her?

On the shore of Sansheng Lake

Nangong Zhao stood with his hands in his hands.

"Uncle Zhao, why are you arresting my husband?"

Zhu Yue's first sentence made Nangong Zhao feel hatred.

He turned around and looked at Zhu Yue: "Someone exposed that he had an affair with Lu An and opposed the imperial court. ”

"He's gone into seclusion. How could it be opposed? ”

Nangong Zhao shook the fist in his hand.

"His resignation from the court is already the best proof of action, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it."

When Nangong Zhao said this, he still remembered Zhao Hui's reminder in his ears: Mingkang has the demeanor of Wolong, and the lord must not let him have the opportunity to display his talents. Today, the lord governs the world and has peace of mind. The only thing that needs to be beware of a famous person like Mingkang who refuses to cooperate.

Just thinking about it, Zhu Yu said, "What if I persuade him to join?" ”

"It's late."

Late?

Zhu Yu smiled bitterly: "Uncle Zhao still remembers Yi'an's request at the beginning?" No matter what, Rao Mingkang will not die. ”

Nangong Zhao took a deep breath: "Yi'an doesn't remember a word, no matter what I ask, he will promise me." ”

Zhu Yue's heart slammed hard.

She nodded blankly.

Back in Shanyang, she packed her baggage and left.

"Master. Where are we going? Lang Yue asked sadly.

"Someone will come and pick us up." She said and turned to look at the place where she had lived, there was laughter and pain, it was the most memorable place in her life.

She took a deep breath and said to the crying Chongbi: "You are a naturally optimistic girl, I will let you stay with my son, and make him happy in the future."

Chongbi nodded with a sob.

There was a carriage waiting for her on the shore of Sansheng Lake, she couldn't stay any longer, and the longer she was here, the later Mingkang would be released.

Zhu Yu looked around and resolutely left.

Nangong Zhao stood by the carriage and told her: "As long as you go with me incognito, Mingkang will not die." And he will live incognito. ”

"I want to go see King Pei's Mansion at the last minute, is that okay? The old lady treated me like a mountain and always protected me. I haven't had time to say goodbye yet. ”

Nangong Zhao nodded.

Their carriage stopped near King Pei's mansion, the gates of which remained closed.

Staring blankly for a while, Nangong Zhao said lightly: "Let's go." ”

The carriage slowly drove away again.

Nangong Zhao said: "Your mother-in-law will arrange for the master of Changle Pavilion to marry Ming Kang, but they are all incognito." ”

"And what about the old lady?"

"The old lady is seriously ill. It's not okay to be old when you're old. Nangong Zhao thought thoughtfully, "Don't worry." The old lady already knows that you have just had a miscarriage and cannot go back to filial piety. She won't blame you. ”

"Oh, Uncle Zhao, everything has already been arranged." Zhu Xuan muttered to himself.

The carriage drove out of the city gate, and when passing by the execution ground, Zhu Yue couldn't help but lift the curtain to look outside the carriage, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Mingkang, who was playing the piano on the sound of torture. She looked back in surprise: "Uncle Zhao, what is this?" ”

"Rest assured. He won't die. ”

Mingkang still played March 3 and Lu Day, and when they first met, they played Changlin San.

Listening to the familiar sound again, she lost any emotion.

Let the past fade away with the sound of the piano.

Nangong Zhao's hand was unintentionally on the back of her hand.

She didn't move.

Still looking at the man on the execution ground.

After playing the piano, Mingkang was even taken to the tent next to him with the piano.

There was a lot of opposition outside.

The protests of the three thousand students were earth-shattering, but the executioner was unmoved, and when Mingkang appeared at the execution ground again, Zhu Xuan couldn't help but be surprised: "Uncle Zhao, you promised." ”

"He's not Mingkang. Mingkang is inside. This man is nothing more than a substitute for the dead. A man who looks a lot like Mingkang. ”

Nangong Zhao's faint words made her half-convinced.

Blood sprayed on the white banner like a red-dyed plum blossom.

The onlookers almost fainted.

The three thousand students even fell to their knees and wept for the deceased.

Mingxi put Mingkang's body into the coffin.

At dusk, it slowly became cold on the execution ground.

The wind whined.

Mingkang seemed to have slept for a long time, and came out of the tent with a shocking scar on his face.

How so!

Her heart ached like a knife.

Nangong Zhao's faint voice came from his ears: "Spare him from dying, but it can't be seen that he is the real Mingkang." Do it yourself. ”

Zhu Yue knew that this was Nangong Zhao's last bottom line.

The disfigured Ming Kang left the execution ground in a daze.

Looking at his familiar back, Zhu Xuan's tears could no longer be suppressed.

"Uncle Zhao, can I have a few words with him?"

"Nope." Nangong Zhao said, "To say it, I have already left a letter." ”

Nangong Zhao cut off her thoughts.

She smiled faintly, without complaint.

This time should not belong to her, but she accidentally broke in.

When the old lady was dying, after assigning all the cage title deeds, she warned Zhu Wei again to take Yang Liu back, after all, she was still a good girl, and she was also pregnant with his bones.

Zhu Wei knelt down in front of the couch and nodded crying.

The old lady also warned Mrs. Ding to go back to her parents' house and not to plunge into the whirlpool of the Zhu room again.

Mrs. Ding closed her eyes and nodded.

The old lady's last gaze fell on Mrs. Guo: "Come here, I have something to tell you." ”

Mrs. Guo still had feelings for the old lady, and at this time, she walked to her sadly and lay down in front of the bed, and the old lady asked her to go over with her ears.

Mrs. Guo lowered her head slightly.

"Yi'an has a red birthmark on his back, and Yi'an and Changle were replaced by Fang Ji."

Mrs. Guo's eyes widened.

When she looked back at the old lady suddenly, the old lady's gaze was already very weak, and the old lady forced her breath and said the last four words: "Be kind to Yi'an." ”

The old lady closed her eyes and left peacefully......

"Old lady?!" Mrs. Guo didn't know what to say in shock, she touched the old lady's breath, trembled her shoulders and said, "Old lady, return to the west." ”

All the people around knelt down and wept.

Mrs. Guo cried more than anyone else.

Her Yi'an!

She was pregnant with her daughter for ten months, and she was tormented by her, and Mingkang and Zhu Yue fell in love, but in the end, she and Nangong Zhao joined forces and broke up alive.

Mrs. Guo cried and fainted several times.

"The master of Changle Pavilion doesn't look like Mrs. Guo at all. On the contrary, the appearance and character of the township lord of Yi'an have the shadow of Mrs. Guo and the old lady. ”

"Yi'an, this little concubine, is more like the concubine of King Pei's mansion."

"Yes, the temper of the master of Changle Pavilion, I don't know where I learned it, neither the Pei Wangfu nor the Guo Mansion can find a character like her."

The rumors of the past popped out of her mind again.

Mrs. Guo trembled, and hurriedly asked Aunt Li to send someone to find the township lord of Yi'an.

Aunt Li returned empty-handed.

"Is it with General Zhao?"

Aunt Li shook her head, "The slave maid can't say clearly, General Zhao is here himself." He said he would tell his wife personally. ”

Before the words fell, Nangong Zhao had already walked in. (To be continued.) )
