Chapter 212: Misfortune is not a one-way street
Soon. The story of the Shogun's Mansion being beaten by the villagers spread throughout Kyoto. Many farmers have followed suit. Refusal to pay rent to the General's Palace. This incident made the old general Weiyuan furious.
Couch. The old general was so angry that he uncovered the bedding on his body." These Diao people. That field was given to us by the emperor to our general's palace. How dare they refuse to pay rent. Zhen'er."
"Back to the general's words. The young master is healing in the house." The old butler's face was very ugly. This time. The General's Mansion is in trouble.
"Useless guys. I don't know what he's learned in the barracks. I can't even deal with a few villagers." The old general Weiyuan's tone was full of disdain. In his opinion. As a person from the Weiyuan General's Mansion. There is no room for defeat.
"General. It's still about your body."
However. Now the name of General Weiyuan's Mansion has become notorious. I don't know who started limerick poetry in Kyoto. It is specially used to satirize the bullying of the Weiyuan clan. As a result, he was taught to be cocooned and bound to himself.
The entire General's Mansion was in a panic. The gossip can't be suppressed.
The old lady was distraught. It's not just that the rent of the fields can't be recovered. There were even people who took advantage of the middle of the night to smash the shop belonging to their general's mansion. The losses are devastating.
"Old lady. There's someone in the palace."
"But the Queen Mother." The old lady was shocked. She knew that the Queen Mother cared most about fame. If those gossips reach the ears of the Queen Mother. Maybe I'll be angry with her.
"No. It's the queen mother. It seems that I want to invite the old lady to go to the Kinding Temple outside of Kyoto to pray for blessings."
Empress. Could it be that the queen has something to say. At this juncture. The old lady had to pay more attention. Maybe the queen's move is the meaning of the queen mother.
"Good. Go. A must go."
Kindingji Temple is one of the closest sacred temples to Kyoto. Unlike the Thien Hock Royal Temple. Kyoto's nobles and nobles often come here to pray for safety.
This day. The old lady of Weiyuan waited in the Jinding Temple early. Until the queen's phoenix appeared. The old lady immediately greeted her.
"The old body sees the queen mother."
The queen looked at the old lady Weiyuan who was dressed up today. Smile slightly." Mrs. Weiyuan is excused."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
The old lady slowly stood up. Today, Jinding Temple does not allow any ordinary people to enter. The entire temple flutters the royal flag of Chenguo. The sky is clear. Don't have a sacred taste.
"There have been a lot of rumors in Kyoto these days. Hongu thought. Old Madam Weiyuan must be depressed. It just so happens that the main palace wants to go to Jinding Temple to pray for the prosperity of the kingdom. I invited Mrs. Weiyuan to join me. I hope General Weiyuan's Mansion can get through this."
"Ah, thank you, mother." Old Mrs. Weiyuan is grateful to Dade. I didn't expect the queen mother to care so much about their Weiyuan General's Mansion. I couldn't help but let down my guard. Seemingly. Niangniang's move should be equivalent to the intention of the emperor and the queen mother.
Their Weiyuan clan has served the kingdom of Chen for many years. How could the emperor erase the credit of their general's mansion for many years for a few gossips.
Again. The Queen Mother still misses the old love. Won't sit idly by.
The air is filled with a delightful scent. The queen entered the Buddha hall under the greeting of the abbot. And the old lady Weiyuan was guarding outside. By the way, a pillar of incense was put on.
Surrounded by clouds and mist. From here, you can see the whole of Kyoto.
Old Madam Weiyuan only felt that the boredom of many days had been swept away. She smiled faintly.
The foundation of the General's Mansion for many years. How could it be so lightly ruined in the hands of some shameless juniors. Just wait. She'll find out who's doing it.
After a long time. The queen finally came out of it. She looked at the old lady who was waiting outside. Mrs. Weiyuan also went in to put incense on the pillar. Pray for peace."
I don't know why. The old lady's heart chuckled. She only felt that there was some deep meaning in the queen's tone. And the smile also made her care a little.
Is it your own delusion." The old body obeys."
The sound of ethereal wooden fish surrounds my ears. Old Madam Weiyuan knelt down in front of the Buddha statue. She raised her head and looked at the golden and benevolent three Buddhas. Sincerely bow down and supplicate.
May General Weiyuan's Mansion prosper for generations to come. May the shameless villain be swept away. May their daughters and granddaughters be in the spirit of heaven. Bless her to send the Marquis of Changrong and others down to bury them together.
Old lady Weiyuan bowed three times. On the pillar incense. Then he quietly withdrew.
"Returning to the Palace"
Feng Yuan got up the sedan chair. The crowd knelt to send. Until the golden procession disappeared from sight. The old lady Weiyuan slowly got up with the support of her grandmother.
"Let's go. Let's go home."
The carriage of General Weiyuan's mansion was already waiting there. The old lady hasn't been out of Kyoto for a long time. It's not a long way to go. But it had already made her tired.
In the carriage. She closed her eyes lightly. Little did he know that the carriage was heading in the other direction.
The old lady's breathing gradually stabilized. I don't know how long I slept. A flock of crows overhead woke her. The old lady opened her eyes suddenly. It's pitch black.
"Wang De. Wang De."
Mama didn't respond.
The old lady lifted the curtain and leaned out in confusion. She didn't want the sudden torch to sting her eyes.
She blocked her view with one hand. It wasn't until I got used to this kind of light that I could see clearly what was in front of me.
The carriage stopped in a wood. And all around. Several men in black hold torches in their hands. Surround her.
They were silent. Just waiting for the old woman in the carriage to wake up.
"You guys. . . Who are you?" the old lady clenched the cane in her hand. None of the guards of the general's palace were spared. Then I took a look at the torch. They all fell to the ground.
Old Madam Weiyuan was shocked." Bold thief. You dare to rob the carriage of the General's Mansion."
"Uh...... Old. The old lady ...... "A pair of bloody hands climbed up the old lady's ankles. She was shocked. Look down. Mama Wang's bleeding face was extremely terrifying. Then take your last breath. Hanging his hand weakly.
The whole convoy. She was the only one left, could it all happen while she was asleep.
How is this possible. I also have martial arts in my body. If there is a little movement. It's impossible not to be aware of it. The only possibility. Is......
She remembered when she got into the carriage. Smell that nice aroma. Mo Fei. I was drugged
In the spooky woods. I don't know where it came from." Hit."
Old Madame Wei Yuan immediately brandished her crutches. How dare you?"
These men in black knew that this old woman had martial arts. Therefore, there was no mercy in the slightest. Immediately rushed up.
Old Mrs. Weiyuan relied on the profound skills of her youth. You can also fight off one or two men in black at first. But after a long time. She felt that her hands and feet were not her own. Don't listen to the call.
Someone hit him the back. She fell out. Wolf bèi's face facing the ground. And the crutches in his hand also fell to the side.
Subsequently. The fists and kicks full of internal force fell on her body. Old Madam Weiyuan only felt that her internal organs were in great pain.
……
"What. The old lady's carriage is gone. What does this mean" General Lei looked at the old butler who came to report back. It's getting dark. The queen's phoenix has been back to the palace for a long time. He sent men along the way. But they didn't see the carriage of their mighty general's mansion.
"General. Recently, we have made a lot of enemies in the General's Palace. Will...... The old lady was taken captive."
"Heh. Joke. Who would dare to do such a thing" General Lei did not believe that anyone had the audacity to hijack the carriage of their general's mansion." Come people. Send someone out and find it."
Soon. The story of the old lady of the General Weiyuan Mansion who was abducted on the way back to the house of Shangxiang spread all over Kyoto.
Inside the Phoenix Palace.
The Empress frowned slightly. There is such a thing. Ay. It's a disaster." She sighed regretfully. A son fell in his hand.
On the chessboard. The sunspots are all surrounded by the whites. There is no power to fight back.
". The Queen Mother called you over." Mama nervously came to report. Seemingly. It's for the old lady Weiyuan.
But. The queen was prepared.
She kindly invited Mrs. Weiyuan to pray for blessings together. Who knew that she would be taken captive on the way home? Could it be that the Queen Mother will blame her head. Instead. Brush yourself by the danger. The Queen Mother should care about her own safety. Who knows if the target of those thieves is themselves or the General's Mansion. Which is more important. The Queen Mother knew in her heart.
And the other end.
Inside the palace of the Marquis of Changrong. The old lady turned the rosary in her hand. The calm expression does not show the slightest emotion.
The door creaked open slowly. The elegant woman appeared in front of me.
Yun Shu stood aside quietly. The old lady slowly opened her eyes. Old lady Weiyuan was taken captive. It's a shame."
"That's what Grandmother said. However, Jiren has his own natural appearance. I believe that my grandmother will turn evil into good fortune."
"Hmm. My father-in-law must be very worried."
"Yes. My grandfather and uncle have sent people to look for them. It's just that there's no news yet."
"We, the Marquis of Changrong, should also make a contribution. so that others will not say that our Hou Mansion is ruthless."
"Shu'er understands."
The young woman withdrew. The old lady looked at the candlestick on the table. Shu'er didn't want to take the life of the old lady Weiyuan so soon. Looks like she has other plans.
It's just that she never thought about it. Shu'er actually invited the queen mother. To the surprise of the old lady. It is the queen mother between the important ministers of the court and Yun Shu. I chose Yunshu.
So. She became more and more sure of her vision. Originally. It was right to transfer the chips to Yun Shu.
The woman. In order to bring a bright future to the Marquis of Changrong.
The old lady couldn't help but think of Lei and Liu Yunhua. I couldn't help but get irritable in my heart. Then he picked up a mantra and slowly recited it.
The sky is bright. A stumbling back appeared at the entrance of the village.
Yan'er, the daughter of the village chief, got up early. Come and help in the field to help with the harvest. Just listen to the thud. Something seems to have hit the fence.
She exclaimed. From afar, I saw the white hair.
It's an old woman. Yan'er thought to herself. I guess where did the poor beggar come from? He immediately ran back to his home. Bring a bowl of water and a piece of steamed bread and slowly approach.
Softly. And put the water in the old woman's hand." Mother-in-law. You're hungry. Let's eat some."
Suddenly. A pair of dry and bloodstained hands grabbed Yan'er's wrists tightly. The young woman immediately snored.
The old woman raised her eyes viciously. I am the old lady of General Weiyuan's mansion. Fast. Tell someone to go to the General's Palace. Let them pick me up."
