Chapter 597
When He Jingbian came to the Wenguo Mansion in official uniforms, except for the old feudal monarch in the mansion who could still maintain his composure, all the people in the mansion were silent.
Duchess Wen was probably seriously ill, and her face was so white that she was almost blue. Wen Guogong's expression was even stiffer, and he didn't come to his senses for a long time after listening to the order, and his face was as straight as ashes.
Liu Yun's will is actually very simple, and even with a little kindness. Meng Chong, the second son of the Duke of Wenguo, and Meng Fei, the second daughter of the princess, will enter the palace from now on, Meng Chong will accompany the second prince, and Meng Fei will accompany the third princess.
In the past, such grace is extremely rare, and ordinary people can't take their turn.
However, with this decree came a terrifying message. Meng Han's face turned white on the spot, if it wasn't for Meng Cheng helping him, he might not even be able to stand steadily. Wu's face was like ashes, and he collapsed to the ground, and several people couldn't pull it up.
The family sent He Jingbian away like a plague, Meng Zhutie blushed, turned around and entered Ruijin Hall, and talked secretly with Mrs. Pei behind closed doors for a long time.
By the time Meng Zhu went out, his face had already improved a lot, and his heart had settled.
Old Madam Pei saw very clearly that the emperor was going to town the tigers of those families by knocking on the mountain of the Wenguo Mansion. The Wenguo Mansion itself has little to do with it, and at most it is only disturbed by some aftermath.
Of course, when the holy decree was issued, Meng Zhu did have the idea of asking Meng Han to divorce his wife, but was stopped by Mrs. Pei.
The Wu family is just a woman, and she is still on the side, even if the emperor wants to suppress the family, he will never embarrass a married Wu family girl. Again. Although the nobles are not clear, their reputation is also important. Now that the Wenguo Mansion is being scolded by the world, if you can't even protect your daughter-in-law, then you will be even more despised by the world.
The only way to do this is to keep changing the way to change. The days go on as usual, and everything is a word for "stability". From Mrs. Pei's point of view, it is good that there are some ugly things in the family, so as not to make the emperor uneasy and afraid of his relatives. A cousin with some stains is much better than a strong relative. As long as the emperor is not suspicious. The days of the Wenguo Mansion will be safe and stable. Glory and wealth will not be less.
Not to mention how the Wu family cried tears and sent away a pair of children like picking their hearts and livers. However, it was said that in the Yongchang Palace, Lin Yuexiu, the palace maid, was also talking to Queen Meng Qing about this matter.
"Niangniang, the Duke of Wen just accepted the order. Nowadays, the whole house is a war of hearts. Sissy look. Do you want to appreciate something? Pacify? Lin Yuexiu said softly.
Meng Qing smiled lightly, put the incense seal in his hand on the case, looked at Lin Yuexiu and said, "You said that you wanted the palace to reward them with something." Why? ”
For some reason, Lin Yuexiu felt that although Meng Qing's expression looked calm, his eyes were extremely cold. This cold look forced Lin Yuexiu to lower her head, but she didn't dare to say more.
"Yuexiu, Hongu knows who you are." Meng Qingshu said indifferently, his voice still calm without a trace of ripples.
Lin Yuexiu was startled, and then her face turned slightly pale, and she knelt on the ground with a "poof", and said in a trembling voice: "The slave doesn't know what Niangniang means." ”
Meng Qing sighed, looking a little tired. She raised her hand and pinched the corner of her forehead, and said with a smile: "That's it, get up." This palace doesn't want to embarrass you. You're also a cannibal with a short mouth. As she said that, she laughed again and said, "But don't always use these words to tempt the palace." Bengong is not so smart, I can't hear which of your sentences is really for the sake of Bengong, and which one is asked on behalf of your master. Bengong just wants to know, does your master really want Bengong to reward things to the Wenguo Mansion? ”
Lin Yuexiu's face was as white as paper, and she didn't dare to move when she fell to the ground.
"Bengu knew he wasn't happy." Meng Qing pursed his lips and said lightly, "That's it, you get up and pass a word to your master for me." ”
Lin Yuexiu got up as she said, still hanging her head.
Meng Qing didn't look at her either, picked up the incense seal on the case, and said casually: "You tell your master, the so-called mother's family, only if you have a mother." There is no mother in this palace, so there is no mother in this palace. As far as the palace is concerned, the Mansion of Wen Guo is just an ordinary noble family, and your master can deal with it however he wants. If there is anything that needs to be done by me, just tell me to do it, and I will do it. I'll just say one more thing here, A-Yuan is a good boy, and his temperament is also a little stupid, if your master can trust it, he will use it. Naturally, if he can't believe it, he doesn't need to. Whether it is fate or calamity, it is always Ayuan's own business, and it has nothing to do with this palace. At this point, she paused and said softly, "That's all, you can go." ”
Lin Yuexiu bowed and retreated silently.
Meng Qing stared at the incense seal in his hand, and suddenly felt a little ironic.
The so-called husband and wife are sometimes worse than real enemies. Lin Yuexiu is not the only person arranged by Liu Yun's side, she has always known it. She picked the most important Lin Yuexiu to pass the word, and there was only one meaning: she was tired and calculating, what is best to say it directly, the gentleman's heart is guessed, people's hearts are unpredictable, and she doesn't have so much spare time to play with him.
She had always known what kind of person her husband was.
An ambitious and scheming man, can you expect to be of the same heart as a husband and wife? That's a joke. As for sincerity, he probably has. It's just that this is really limited and limited, and it's not on her.
Since many years ago, Meng Qing knew that what her husband wanted was that supreme position. Over the years, he has worked hard and meticulously designed. She knows all this.
So, she never fought for anything.
If he gains power, she will naturally ascend to the sky in one step; If he loses power, she will inevitably be crushed. Therefore, there is really nothing to fight for in those positions and heirs. Because if you fight, you may not be able to keep it, but it is better to live happily and enjoy the beauty of this world.
Fortunately, God favored, she finally stood at the highest place in this world. Although the height was unbearable, she didn't care.
Life is a life, grass and trees are autumn. She didn't live in this world to rob men with those women, let alone calculate or anything all day long. There are so many things to cherish and appreciate in this world, and she doesn't have so much spare time to worry about others.
Thinking of this, Meng Qing's expression finally became calmer again. She looked at the incense seal in her hand and smiled slightly, and commanded: "Come on, tell me to go down, the weather is good today, and I will steam some wisteria cake to eat." Hongu remembered that there were still fresh flowers in the ice room. Leave less sugar and don't make it too sweet. ”
There was a little joy in her slightly cold voice, as if the conversation with Lin Yuexiu had never happened before...... (To be continued.) )
