Chapter 0218: The Time of the Palm Lamp
Back then, Xiaoyangzi bet on Chen Meiren to Dangyang, he thought that Emperor Mingqi would definitely not disappoint Chen Meiren, and when Chen Meiren entered the palace, he would become Chen Meiren's cronies, and there would be many benefits at that time.
It's a pity that Xiaoyoko was too young at that time, and he made a wrong judgment.
Emperor Mingqi's heart has reached an outrageous point, and Xiang Dangyang said to Chen Mu that the emperor has at least twenty illegitimate children outside the palace.
Xiang Dangyang can be sure that it is not only Chen Meiren's child, but also a boy named You Wuci, who is two years older than Chen Mu, and a little princess named Youlan, who is the same age as Chen Mu. The relationship between their brother and sister is similar to that between Chen Mu and Emperor Tianci.
Half-sibling, the second mother is a sister.
But the girls of the You family were unlucky, and neither girl was able to enter the palace.
Unmarried and pregnant, a great shame, the old swordsman of the You family was born, half a life, when was he so humiliated, a poisonous fire was difficult to extinguish, and finally died with hatred.
Second Sister You has a strong personality, and after giving birth to the little princess, seeing that the emperor has already found a new love, she hung a white silk on the southeast branch, and the fragrance disappeared.
And Second Sister You was introduced to the emperor by Sister You, and when she heard that her sister hanged herself, Sister You didn't want to live anymore.
"It's a pity that the two children are still too young, she didn't die in the end, it is said that she scattered her family wealth and went to the rivers and lakes to become a prodigal swordsman." Xiang Dangyang smiled bitterly: "It is said that it has a connection with the Black Eagle Gate." ”
"Black Eagle Gate ......" Chen Mu was taken aback, and hurriedly asked: "How does Sister You look, has Father-in-law Xiang seen it?" ”
"My Fair Lady, her eyes are like stars, which is unforgettable. What's even more rare is that she is also a peerless student, and she is an expert in dancing and swords. Xiang Dangyang said immediately.
Chen Mu's face tightened, and he secretly said something bad in his heart, and the image of Zhong Lixiang suddenly flashed in his mind.
Fortunately, he is not an obscene person, otherwise it would be a big mistake.
Seeing that Chen Mu's face was different, Xiang Dangyang was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why is Your Highness worried?" ”
Chen Mu asked seriously: "Just now you mentioned that a little princess is the same age as me, right?" ”
"Yes." Xiang Dangyang was a little confused.
"Same age?" Chen Mu asked emphatically.
"Same age!" Xiang Dangyang is determined.
"Oh..., then I'm relieved." Chen Mu smiled bitterly.
Xiang Dangyang couldn't guess what Chen Mu was thinking, and he didn't ask much.
At this time, Chen Mu called: "Hanxiang, call Zhong Lixiang." He turned his head and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, I will introduce someone to you." ”
Soon after, Miss Zhongli strode in.
Chen Mu motioned for her to sit down and come closer.
In fact, Xiang Dangyang had seen Zhong Lixiang, but he didn't pay much attention to it before, but when he looked at it closely, he suddenly felt in a trance. But he didn't say anything.
When Zhong Lixiang walked in, he was stared at by the old eunuch, and after watching for a long time, the girl was a little uncomfortable. He turned his face and glared at Chen Mu. seems to be asking Chen Mu, what kind of ghost is it doing?
Chen Muhan smiled silently, and seeing that Xiang Dangyang was no longer looking, Chen Mucai waved his hand.
Zhong Lixiang left angrily.
Chen Mu smiled: "The daughter of the head of the Black Eagle Sect, what does my father-in-law think?" ”
Xiang Dangyang asked rhetorically: "How old is this girl this year?" ”
Chen Mu said: "I asked, but she didn't tell me, but I can be sure that she is younger than me, at least two years younger." Because last year when I saw her, it was only up to my shoulders, and this year it is already up to my eyes. Her mother is a mysterious person, and legend has it that she is the wife of the former head of Black Hawk. ”
Xiang Dangyang nodded: "She and Sister You are really a little similar, but this is not enough to explain anything." Female swordsmen are often this kind of skeleton, and it can't be said that they are all mother-daughter relationships. ”
Chen Mu nodded in agreement.
Then they chatted about some painless things, and then Xiang Dangyang got up to say goodbye.
This was a bit unexpected by Chen Mu, he also thought that Xiang Dangyang would bring some words from the Queen Mother, but in fact he didn't. Before leaving, Xiang Dangyang said to Chen Mu, it is best to keep a distance between us, or even to remain hostile, so that it will be beneficial to you and me.
Later, Xiang Dangyang went to the army to find faults, scolded officers at all levels, and finally went to the headquarters of the Ninth Division of Xuanjia to see Cao Sui. At night, he stayed at the Xuanjia Military Station.
Chen Mu ordered Feng Hu, with a few people, to run to the door of the Xuanjia Military Post House, pretending to be drunk and scolding Xiang Dangyang.
When Xiang Dangyang rushed out angrily, Feng Hu was taken away by Zhang Han.
When the lamp was in charge, Chen Mu took Xiaohuan and two little maids behind him, and walked towards the lame man's house.
They all held jade statues in their hands.
Hearing that Chen Mu came, Yu Linglong's mother and daughter went out to greet her, and Chen Mu gave the jade statue to Yu Linglong. Then he went to Zhang Han's house, and when he saw that Zhang Han was not at home, Chen Mu did not enter the door, but asked Xiaohuan to send the jade statue of his wife in.
Yoyoda walked back, suddenly turned his head, and walked into the lame man's house again.
"There's something I want to ask my sister-in-law."
Yu Linglong said with a smile: "Uncle asked, and he knew everything. ”
"Sister-in-law, have you ever heard about the Black Eagle Gate?"
The most well-informed place in Luoyang City is the Qinglou, as the top brand of Wanhualou that year, the amount of information she has is amazing, all-encompassing, from the intrigue in the inner courtyard of the palace, to the few men lying on the kang head of Widow Zhang's house, this kind of thing can't hide from them.
If there is no impermeable wall in the world, then places like Wanhualou, Meixian Courtyard, and Caiyun Pavilion are the outlets of sand waves.
Yu Linglong smiled wisely: "Uncle wants to know about Zhong Li's family?" ”
"Sister-in-law really knows?" Chen Mu nodded.
Yu Linglong smiled weirdly: "If the uncle doesn't ask, the foolish sister-in-law will definitely not take the initiative to say it, and most of those words are market words, so they can't be true." ”
"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Chen Mu smiled.
Listening to Yu Linglong's tone, it was estimated that she was going to say bad things about Zhong Lixiang, Xiaohuan pricked up her ears. was shaken by Chen Mu and kicked out. Xiaohuan pouted and walked away, came to the outhouse, and saw Hanxiang eating snacks for the two little maids, she also walked over to take a look, and instead of eating snacks, she grabbed a handful of melon seeds. Everyone was eating, but the chronic maid named Cui Ji was sitting on the sidelines, slowly and leisurely collecting the soles of her shoes.
The door closed, and Yu Linglong said: "Some words are difficult to hear, and it is a little embarrassing to talk to the uncle." But these words can't help but say to the uncle, because the foolish sister-in-law has already seen that the uncle has three feelings for Miss Zhongli. If Uncle was just an ordinary person, Miss Zhongli's background would be nothing, but as His Royal Highness, it would be very inappropriate. I have long heard that the old swordsman of Zhongli in the Black Eagle Gate has a lady with excellent appearance, and this lady has given birth to many men, and she is Zhonglixiang's mother. How can her daughter be worthy of His Royal Highness for such misbehaving? ”
"Sister-in-law mean, this person is still alive now?"
"I don't know if she's alive now, but legend has it that when she died, she must have been alive because she was living in the Meng family at the time. As a concubine for a son of the Meng family. ”
Chen Mu felt a little sorry for Zhong Lixiang and didn't want to make a mistake, so he asked, "Sister-in-law, how do you know?" ”
Yu Linglong's face flushed, and she lowered her head and said, "Back then, that son often took care of the Qingqi business. ”
The first is the latest.
