112. Let's talk about the board first

The onlookers looked at Nangong Mo who was standing beside Wei Junmo in unison, and first wanted to see how this person reacted. In addition, a small number of people looked at Xiao Yuewu with a look at a strange species... What kind of strange creature is this, shouting in front of the eldest lady of Chu Guo that your mother is the Duchess of Chu Guo? Doesn't that mean that the beautiful woman in white with a swaying demeanor is Miss Nangong's mother? Although almost everyone has never seen Nangong Lady Meng, at least this beautiful woman and Nangong Lady are very beautiful, and they really can't find the slightest resemblance.

It is true that Nangong Mo and Meng look very similar, but Meng and Qiao Feiyan don't look like each other at all. After all, they are cousins, and they are not very close cousins. Qiao Feiyan's mother was just the concubine of one of Meng's uncles and grandfathers. It's just that the Meng family's descendants are not prosperous, so they seem closer.

Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows, his expression was calm and did not have the anger that the onlookers thought, but said lightly: "The first mother has been driving a crane for many years, several... Please respect yourself. ”

"Take it away." Wei Junmo frowned, a little impatiently said. As for the fact that the mother and son ruined Nangong Huai's reputation, since they were flawless, Wei Shizi naturally didn't hear it. Several officials were afraid that the mother and son would make some more moths, so they hurriedly dragged them away. Xiao Qianning, who was at the end, stared at Nangong Mo hatefully, his eyes flashing with gloom and anger. Nangong Mo leaned on Wei Junmo and raised her eyebrows, she was also very curious about what the three of them could do.

Seeing that there was no good show to watch, the onlookers naturally dispersed, after all, not everyone could withstand Wei Shizi's cold eyes. But there are always exceptions to this, Changfeng Gongzi stood under the eaves of the corner of the street with a smile and said leisurely to the two people: "The princess is becoming more and more famous now, and there is really a lively place to see wherever she goes." ”

Nangong Mo glanced at him angrily, and the strange words in the crowd just now must have come out of his mouth.

"What are you doing here?" Wei Junmo glanced at him and said indifferently. Lin Changfeng squeezed his eyebrows aggrievedly at Nangong Mo, and lamented: "This is really a daughter-in-law who has married a woman, and my brother will ignore it and ignore it." Wei Shizi, it's not right to be heavy on color and light on friends. Haven't you heard... Wives are like garments, and brothers are like siblings. ”

Wei Junmo glanced at him up and down, and said lightly: "Really?" To put it this way... You don't have to wear clothes? As he spoke, his hand inadvertently stroked the jade buckle around his waist. Of course, Lin Changfeng knew what was hidden in his waist, if he really asked him to pull out a soft sword to give himself a few swords. Even if you don't get hurt, it's embarrassing to run naked, okay?

The figure flashed, and he hurriedly flashed to Nangong Mo's side, licking and laughing: "Miss Mo, the newlywed is happy." ”

Nangong Mo smiled slightly, but it made Lin Changfeng feel a little cold, "I'm sorry, Gongzi Changfeng, please pay attention to me a little farther, I am someone else's clothes." I wonder if Changfeng Gongzi has heard another sentence? ”

"What?" reacted to offend someone, and Changfeng Gongzi could only laugh dryly.

Nangong Mo said: "Whoever touches my clothes, I will cut off whose hands and feet." ”

So ruthless! Poisonous woman!

Changfeng Gongzi covered his mouth, and instantly floated back a few feet away, looking at this vicious couple with a depressed face. Looking at his pitiful appearance, Nangong Mo snorted lightly and pointed to the Lingxi Pavilion behind him and said, "I just talked about a business, you go in and talk to the shopkeeper in detail." The next thing is that there is Lao Changfeng's son. ”

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!" Changfeng Gongzi said with a bitter face. Since taking over the business in Nangong Mo's hands, Changfeng Gongzi feels that he is so busy that he is about to become a spinning top. Compared to taking care of these industries in person, it is simply too easy to name the Lord of Zixiao Palace. The long-winded boy, who has always been suave, feels that he is embarrassed to go out and have a good time. I finally wanted to come out today to breathe, who knew that I had just watched a good show and was enslaved by Nangong Mo.

Looking at someone's strange look of frowning, complaining, and happy, Nangong Mo looked back at Wei Junmo in some surprise.

Wei Junmo stretched out his hand and took her into his arms, and said lightly: "It's nothing, he's sick, let's go first." ”

So, the newlyweds went away sweetly hand in hand. Leaving a handsome and merry young man standing at the door of the Lingxi Pavilion, his expression was uncertain. Frightened, passers-by walked quickly, silently thinking in their hearts: this person is most likely sick.

When Changfeng Gongzi came back to his senses and found that the two of them had disappeared, he couldn't help but twist his handsome face and roared loudly, "Wei Junmo!" One day Ben Gongzi is going to make you look good! ”

Passers-by rushed away, and the shopkeeper and Xiao Er of Lingxi Pavilion looked vigilant: they were blocked by madmen at the door in broad daylight, is today really an auspicious day for the zodiac?

In the Mansion of the Duke of Chu, Nangong Huai was talking to Nangong Xu and Nangong Hui. While speaking, Nangong Huai observed the expressions of his two sons, and since he said that he was going to marry his stepfamily, the reaction of his two sons was no longer what he expected. originally thought that Nangong Hui, who had an impulsive temperament, would definitely object, and Nangong Xu, who had a calm temperament, would definitely not agree so easily. But he didn't want the two of them to seem to care who he married. What makes Nangong even more concerned is..."Xu'er, do you remember Yan... Your cousin? ”

The last time Qiao Feiyan appeared in Nangong's house was when Nangong Huai wanted to take her as a concubine, and she hasn't appeared since. At that time, Nangong Xu was not yet three years old, can he remember this?

Nangong Xu said lightly: "No, I just heard that there is a cousin who is the princess of Huaning County." ”

"Your mother said that? What else did she tell you? ”

Nangong Xu shook his head, "I heard someone say a few words by chance." Nangong Huai didn't know whether to believe this son or not. After Meng's death, the Zheng family cleaned up the subordinates in the mansion, and it must be impossible to ask which subordinate said it. However, thinking about the arrogance of the original wife, she didn't even want to look at Zheng, and she probably wouldn't specifically mention Fei Yan.

Sighing, Nangong Huai said: "Your cousin had some misunderstanding with your mother back then, so she didn't communicate for many years. Now that the king of Huaning has passed away and has no title, it is not easy for her to be a woman with two children. In the end, it is your mother's only relative......" Nangong Xu lowered his eyes and said lightly: "Father, son understands." ”

"It's good to understand, it's good to understand." Nangong Huaidao, angry and irritable for no reason in his heart. Zheng died inexplicably, obviously this son is the most suspicious, but he can't find any evidence. Don't... Is he really too suspicious?

"Sir, sir! Oh no! Outside the door, the chief steward hurried in to pray.

Nangong Huai said with some displeasure: "What's not good? ”

The manager glanced at Nangong Xu and Nangong Hui with some embarrassment, and Nangong Huai frowned and said, "You go back first." ”

"Yes, father." The brothers got up and took their leave.

When the two of them retreated, Nangong Huai asked, "What's wrong?" ”

General Pipe: "Joe... Mrs. Qiao and Miss Childe were arrested and put in Yingtianfu Prison! ”

"What?!" Nangong Huai got up abruptly and said sharply: "What's the matter?!" ”

The manager said with a bitter face: "Back to the master, I heard... Mrs. Qiao and the two young ladies met the eldest lady and her aunt in the Lingxi Pavilion. Miss... There was a misunderstanding between the three crooks who thought they were swaggering. And then... Miss Moon Dance said in public that Mrs. Qiao was the Duchess of Chu. ”

"What?!" Nangong Huai's face sank, he was right to marry Fei Yan, but he hadn't married yet. Say something like that on the street... I'm afraid that the word will spread throughout the inner city by this time. Thinking of the ridicule of those colleagues when he went to court tomorrow, Nangong Huai's face couldn't look good.

"Sir, Mrs. Joe's ......"

Nangong Huai's face softened, and he said in a deep voice: "I'll go to Yingtianfu!" "Wei Junmo personally asked people to send people in, just send someone to go but I'm afraid that I won't be able to pick them up. Fei Yan is weak, in case she gets hurt... Thinking of this, Nangong Huai couldn't sit still, and hurriedly got up and prepared to go out.

In Nangong Xu's study, Nangong Xu was sitting behind the bookcase practicing calligraphy. A huge still word was written murderously for some reason. Nangong Hui pushed the door in, and said a little unhappily: "Big brother, Dad went out." ”

Nangong Xu snorted and didn't speak. Nangong Hui was a little breathless and said, "Big brother, what is the origin of that cousin." I've never heard you talk about what kind of cousin we have. Nangong Xu said lightly: "Mother's mother's distant relatives are just some of them, why do you mention her?" ”

"Now she's going to be our stepmother." Nangong Hui said: "It's really inexplicable, even if my father wants to marry a stepfamily, find a well-connected lady in Jinling or uh-huh... Isn't that okay, how can you find a widow thousands of miles away? And a widow who has just died not long after her husband? Father must have wanted to marry a stepfamily a long time ago, right? When Mo'er first came back, he didn't want to mention him? ”

Liangzhou is thousands of miles away from Jinling, not to mention that Liangzhou is located on the border and the roads are difficult to travel. The king of Huaning County died in March, and the news should reach Jinling in April and May, and it will be almost this time for my father to send a letter to marry someone else and come back. Other words... Huaning Junwang just died, and his father was Xiao Xiang's wife... Who believes that these two people had nothing to do with each other in the past? If it really doesn't matter, Nangong Hui really wants to ask his father: How much enmity and resentment does the king of Huaning have with you.

"Hui'er, it's time for you to get married." Nangong Xu put down his pen and said lightly.

Nangong Hui was stunned for a moment, touched his head with some puzzlement and said, "Why did you talk about me?" ”

Nangong Xu said: "You have gone out to fight, and you have also made some military achievements. Now in the army, although the grade is not high, but the reputation of your father is there, and your brother-in-law will take care of you a little bit, and it is almost the same. ”

"It's not." Nangong Hui rolled his eyes, smart people were so annoying that they couldn't keep up with their rhythm at all, "Aren't we talking about our father marrying a stepfamily now?" ”

Nangong Xu said lightly: "You marry a wife first, and I will ask my father to ask for a better position for you." You have military merits, and your father's grace is more useful to you than to me. "Every year, there are some young officials in the imperial court who do not go through formal channels such as the imperial examination to enter the office, which is for grace. This is only valid for the sons-in-law of the powerful who have contributed to the founding of Great Xia. Nangong Xu continued: "After getting married, you can move out and live." ”

"Big, big, big brother?!" Nangong Hui's eyes widened and said, "Big brother, what do you want to do?" Nangong Hui didn't think that the eldest brother was afraid that he wanted to compete with him for the title. But it was precisely because of this that he was even more confused, "My father is still here, and even if I get married, I can't separate the family." ”

Nangong Xu glanced at him and said indifferently: "I have protected you too well over the years, do you want to rely on me for the rest of your life?" I also said before that I want to protect Mo'er, you look like a bird that can't do without the nest, do you protect Mo'er or Mo'er protect you? Nangong Hui was suddenly ashamed, raised his head and looked at Nangong Xu with blinking: "But, even if I agree, my father won't agree." ”

"Father will agree." Nangong Xudao.

Although he didn't know where the eldest brother got his confidence, Nangong Hui thought about it carefully and felt that what the eldest brother said was right. I'm already an adult, and it's really time to stand on my own. Even if the family goes out to live, the eldest brother is still the eldest brother, isn't it? They all live in Jinling City, and it's not like they're all gone. It's just that, I don't know why, Nangong Hui always feels a little uneasy, "Big brother... Why don't you wait for my father to marry my stepfamily? "He always wants to see if that steproom is a good match, what if it's another Zheng family?

Nangong Xu shook his head and said firmly: "No, you get married first, and then your father will accept the stepfamily." ”

Nangong Hui blinked, too lazy to remind the eldest brother that his father was marrying a stepfamily and not accepting a steproom.

"Can sister-in-law handle it?" Even he is not very optimistic about his sister-in-law's ability, he doesn't want to marry a daughter-in-law like his sister-in-law, so it is better not to marry someone who is chic and comfortable. Nangong Xu said calmly: "I have already helped you choose a good candidate." The youngest daughter of the naturalized general Shang Zhen. ”

Big brother, you will be beaten to death by your father. Naturalized general, he is not right with our father.

"The eldest son." Outside the door, the man in gray said in a deep voice. Nangong Xu raised his head, "Come in, what's the matter?" ”

The man in gray said: "Miss Fang Cai sent someone to report that she met three liars who claimed to be her aunt and cousin on the street, and was sent to Yingtianfu Prison by her uncle. ”

Nangong Xu raised his eyebrows, "Is it really a liar?" ”

The man in gray said, "The eldest lady said it was a liar. Nangong Xu nodded and said, "I know, it seems that my father is in a hurry to go out for them." Send someone to find out where they live. ”

"Yes, eldest son."

"Did you get it back?" Nangong Xu asked.

The man in gray took out a thick sealed letterhead from his arms and handed it over. The old tension spring on the letterhead is obviously from many years ago, but it is very well preserved. Nangong Hui stretched his neck, but unfortunately Nangong Xu didn't mean to show him, so he directly locked the letterhead into the cabinet in front of him and said lightly: "Go ahead." ”

"The subordinates retired."

Looking at Nangong Hui's curious eyes, Nangong Xu said lightly: "Don't tell others, otherwise you will break your legs." ”

Nangong Hui suddenly wilted, and muttered in a low voice: "Big brother threatens people like this every time. But there was no curiosity on his face. Although Nangong Hui has no scheming, he has known since he was a child that the most reliable person in the entire mansion is the eldest brother. Of course, he also knew that his eldest brother did a lot of things without his father, but he never revealed it to anyone. Especially when the eldest brother says, "Otherwise, I will break your leg", it means that it is an important thing, and if it is revealed, it will not be his leg broken in the end, but the eldest brother will be broken by his father.

Seeing his younger brother like this, Nangong Xu's eyes were gentle, and he said lightly: "Go back." I told my father for the past two days. Please ask Mrs. Xie Hou to propose marriage for you. ”

"Big brother, is it really okay?"

"Fuck off!"

Seeing the eldest brother's eyes, Nangong Hui shrank his neck and hurriedly rolled out of the study.

In Yingtianfu Prison, Xiao Yuewu was holding on to the railing of the cell and shouting and scolding. It's a pity that no one paid attention to her even if she screamed and cut her throat. On the other side, Qiao Feiyan carefully found a fairly clean place to stand, looking at the wet and dirty cell in front of her with disgust, her eyes were slightly red, "Wu'er, don't be afraid... Nangong and the Chu State Guild came to save us. ”

Xiao Yuewu snorted coldly and said angrily: "Nangong Mo did it on purpose!" ”

Xiao Qianning said in a deep voice: "What if she does it on purpose? She is the princess of Jingjiang County and the lord of Xingcheng, what can we do. ”

"Woo woo..." Qiao Feiyan covered her lips and cried bitterly, "I'm sorry, woo... Ning'er, Wu'er, I'm sorry, it's all because my mother is useless that you have suffered so many grievances. Seeing that her mother was so sad, Xiao Qianning and Xiao Yuewu hurriedly came over to comfort her, Xiao Qianning said: "Mother, don't be afraid, we are always surnamed Xiao, are you afraid that she will not succeed?" "For Nangong Mo, Xiao Qianning really hated it. He is the dignified prince of Huaning County, how could he have suffered such humiliation. As long as there is a chance, today's revenge will be repaid tenfold and hundredfold!

Xiao Yuewu kicked the grass on the ground irritably, "It's all my father's fault!" If he hadn't escaped, how would we have ended up in such a situation? "If it weren't for her father's escape, she would still be the eldest lady of the Huaning County Palace. Even if his father is gone, his brother is still the king of Huaning, where will it be like now, there is nothing!

"Mother, will that Duke of Chu really come to save us?"

"Yes, definitely." Qiao Feiyan assured repeatedly: "The Duke of Chu is a famous general who founded the country and a great hero who stands up to the sky. Follow... It's not like your father. ”

Xiao Qianning snorted lightly, her eyes gloomy.

The door to the cell was opened, and a middle-aged man dressed in an official mansion walked in with someone. The three of them hurriedly looked over, and Qiao Feiyan stepped forward in surprise and said, "Are you here to let us out?" ”

The middle-aged man touched his chin and sneered, "Let you out?" When the street blackmailed the county lord of Star City and the commander of the Jingwei, you still want to go out? ”

Qiao Feiyan said with tears in her eyes: "We are not liars, what we say is true!" ”

"Really?" The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and said, "So, you are really the lady of the Duke of Chu?" As far as this official knows, the Duchess of Chu had died several years ago. Today's Duchess of Chu seems to be the Madame Zheng who doesn't even have a fate. At this time, outsiders did not know that Zheng was dead.

Qiao Feiyan was speechless, biting her lip and said, "The child is not sensible, and he is in a hurry to talk nonsense." Thank you for your understanding. However, I am really the aunt of the Lord of Star City, but she has never seen me, so I don't know her. If the adults don't believe it, they can ask Chu Guogong, she naturally knows the truth or falsehood. ”

The middle-aged man sneered, "The nobles of the Chu State are busy, where do you have time to pay attention to you?" Come on, bring people out for the official to interrogate well, the official wants to see who is so bold and dares to cheat at the feet of the Son of Heaven! ”

"Yes, sir!"

The mother and son were dragged out again and dragged to the lobby outside to kneel. The middle-aged man sat in the lobby, obviously this is the current Ying Tianfu Yin.

"The three of them, report their names." Ying Tianfu Yin said in a deep voice.

Qiao Feiyan was startled and said with tears in her eyes: "Concubine... Qiao Feiyan. ”

Xiao Yuewu raised her chin and said proudly: "This girl is Xiao Yuewu, the county lord of Huaning County. ”

"Xiao Qianning." Xiao Qianning said coldly.

Ying Tianfu Yin raised his eyebrows, "The preparation is quite thorough?" The king of Huaning, right? Is there any evidence to prove it? This official remembers that I don't have the king of Huaning County in Daxia now, pretending to be the county lord, and this crime is more serious than pretending to be a relative. Qiao Feiyan hurriedly said: "My lord's forgiveness, concubine... The concubine is the widow of the former king of Huaning County, and the little girl just made a slip of the tongue for a while, please forgive me. ”

Ying Tianfu Yin looked the mother and son up and down, and asked, "Is there any evidence?" ”

"Witness... Occupy? "When the palace of Huaning County was raided, all the things that could prove the identity of the king of Huaning County and valuable things were all stolen. Even because Qiao Feiyan had broken with the Meng family at the beginning, and when she married the king of Huaning County, she didn't even have a few dowries, and the mother and son suffered a lot for more than a year.

"None? Are you playing tricks?! Ying Tianfu Yin was furious and said in a deep voice: "Someone! First give the official ten boards heavily, and let them know what it means to despise the court! ”

"Mighty!" The officials shouted in unison with water and fire sticks.

Although Qiao Feiyan used to be the princess of the county, she had always been raised in a deep boudoir, where had she ever seen such a scene. She has always been pitiful, and for some reason, she is not easy to do in front of this Ying Tianfu Yin. That Ying Tianfu Yin looked righteous and awe-inspiring, and did not take her lovely appearance in his eyes at all.

Several officials stepped forward, pulled the three people apart and pressed them to the ground, raised the board and snapped and fought.

"Huh?! You wait! I'm going to kill you! Xiao Yuewu shouted and scolded. Ying Tianfu Yin pursed his lips and nodded towards the official who was being executed, and the official suddenly understood, and the strength of his attack was two parts heavier.

"Stop!" As soon as Nangong Huai came in, he saw that the mother and son were pressed to the ground and screamed, and immediately roared angrily.

Ying Tianfu Yin raised his eyebrows, stood up and said respectfully: "Xia Guan has seen the Duke of Chu Mansion. I don't know what the Duke of Chu is coming, what is the matter? ”

Nangong Huai said sharply: "Who told you to beat them?!" ”

"Nangong... Brother Nangong..."Seeing Nangong Huai walking in quickly, Qiao Feiyan's tears suddenly couldn't stop falling, "Woo... Brother Nangong, help. Nangong Huai's heart twitched, and he hurriedly stepped forward and kicked away the servant, holding her in his arms, "Yan'er, are you seriously injured?" ”

Qiao Feiyan shook her head, "No... Woo, I know that Brother Nangong will come to save us. I'm fine... Mo'er was just angry for a while, don't blame her......"

"That wicked girl!" Nangong Huai rebuked angrily in a low voice.

As soon as he picked up Qiao Feiyan and got up to leave, Ying Tianfu Yin's face sank, and he said in a deep voice: "Wait! Chu Guogong, if you want to go, you can go, but the prisoner has to stay! Nangong Huai turned his head and stared at Ying Tianfu Yin with cold eyes: "I haven't held you accountable for your abuse of lynching, and you dare to stop me?" ”

Ying Tianfu Yin Zhengse said: "Chu Guogong, there is no excuse for the crime you want to add. This is the lobby of Yingtianfu, and the official is trying the case, where is the abuse of lynching? It's Guogong, if you trespass into the court and want to take away the prisoner, even if you come to your majesty, you have to give this official an explanation. ”

Looking at Qiao Feiyan, who was weak in her arms, Nangong Huai said impatiently: "They are indeed relatives of the Meng family, not liars. ”

Ying Tianfu Yin sneered: "Since it is a relative of the Meng family, why doesn't the Lord of Star City know him?" In addition, the official now not only has to investigate the matter, but also has to try them for the crime of pretending to be the widow of the county king, the prince, and the county lord. ”

Nangong Huai's face became even more difficult to look at, and Qiao Feiyan, who was held in his arms, weakly pulled his sleeve and said, "Brother Nangong... I'm in so much pain..."

"Don't be afraid, we'll go back." Nangong Huai comforted in a low voice, raised his head and said to Ying Tianfu Yin: "They are indeed the widows and children of the former King of Huaning County, I can testify." Still have questions? Ying Tianfu Yin pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Since the Guogong testified, naturally there is no problem." However, I also ask Guogong to remind these people that even if you want to recognize relatives in the future, it is better to recognize them at home, especially the kind of relatives who have never been masked. lest he be regarded as a liar again, and it is also very difficult to disturb the Jinling magistrate. ”

"Thank you for the reminder, farewell!" Nangong Huai walked out with a calm face, and behind him, Xiao Yuewu and Xiao Qianning followed with an ugly face and a limp.

"Quit!" Ying Tianfu Yin patted the shocked wood, threw up his sleeves and entered the inner hall.

As soon as he entered the inner hall, Lord Fu Yin took off the official hat on his head and smashed it at the man sitting in the back hall leisurely drinking tea without hesitation, "Lin Changfeng, why do you want to kill Lao Tzu!" ”
