Chapter 269: Friend or Foe
Lu Kai knew that Zhang Zhongping had misunderstood, so he could only explain in his mouth, "What are you happy about, it's not my own sister"
Zhang Zhongping looked excited and said, "Huh? It's a pity that it's not my own sister."
Regarding this marriage, Feng Baozhen was very worried, and since Lu Kai came, he asked casually: "Taiwei did this, didn't he involve the Ge family?" ”
A gust of mountain wind blew, blowing Lu Fa's silk up and fluttering, "If the Taiwei doesn't do this, the Ge family can't stay out of it, and this move is also unacceptable, but Shu Lan will definitely make trouble, right?" ”
"Why don't you make trouble" Thinking of Ge Shulan's temperament, Feng Baozhen also shouted, "I cried and made trouble, but I almost hanged myself"
Lu Kai sighed and said, "I once thought about what kind of family Shu Lan would marry, but I didn't expect it to be the prince, which surprised me."
Feng Baozhen pondered Lu Kai's eyes, "Can you really accept it calmly?" ”
Lu Kai said with a straight face: "Uncle Feng! I only think Shulan is my sister! ”
Feng Baozhen said helplessly, "That's it, I can't take care of your young people's affairs."
Zhang Zhongping fantasized about the prince's gift and asked, "What gift did the prince give?" It's a great gift for sure."
Feng Baozhen looked dumbfounded and smiled, "I heard Shu Lan say at the time, I also thought it was a big gift, but it was not a big gift, so I gave a scabbard and a white paper framed together."
At this time, the three of them returned to the house, Feng Baozhen went to the kitchen to get fish, Zhang Zhongping and Lu Kai sat in the hall, Zhang Zhongping was shocked and laughed, "White paper and scabbard? Why did the prince send this, this is also too shabby? ”
The thatched house is small, this is not the inner courtyard of the palace, what Lu Kaizhang Zhongping said in the main hall Feng Baozhen can also hear, the kitchen is in the middle, Feng Baozhen raised his voice at this time and asked, "Tell me, what does the prince mean by this ceremony?" ”
Lu Kai pondered for a moment and smiled faintly, "Big brother, you might as well guess"
Zhang Zhongping struggled to think for a moment: "Blank paper and scabbard? Can't think of what this could mean? ”
Lu Kai smiled and opened his mouth, "What does this ceremony mean, it's up to whom."
"Who else is going to come and see?" Zhang Zhongping didn't quite understand what he heard: "Isn't the gift for the Ge family?" Who else is watching besides the Ge family? ”
Lu Kai looked at Zhang Zhongping with an unpredictable smile, "Actually, this gift, on the one hand, is for Da Situ to see, and on the other hand, there are some things I want to say to Ge Gong."
"Show it to Da Situ?" Feng Baozhen boiled the fish in the pot, and then he went out of the house and sat down and asked, "How can Da Situ care about such a ceremony?" ”
Lu Kai thought of Da Situ's eyes full of contempt, "The prince's every move back to the dynasty must be monitored by Da Situ, on the contrary, Da Situ's every move is also monitored by the Tai Lieutenant, as long as something comes out, both sides have to ponder it."
"In my opinion, that frame of paper is just to urge marriage, a marriage contract, according to the prince's temperament, he must have been to Gefu to see Shu Lan, Shu Lan will definitely not easily agree to this, the prince will not be difficult so Shu Lan will consider, the paper is to urge marriage, and specially add a frame, that is to tell Shu Lan in advance, if she enters the palace, it is equivalent to a bird in a cage, and there are some things in the cage that cannot be done too much by their own temperament"
Feng Baozhen agreed, "Indeed, when you enter the palace, you can't make the eldest lady angry, you must take every step of the way, otherwise even if the prince has a heart in the palace, he can't protect her."
How did Zhang Zhongping know that a frame of paper could still have such a saying, and he admired Lu Kai's agility and talent, Zhang Zhongping said in Wen, "So what does the scabbard mean?" ”
Lu Kai's eyes sank, and he immediately said: "There is only a scabbard, there is no sharp sword, the prince wants Ge Gong to take the initiative!" ”
"Take the initiative?" Feng Bao Zhenleng asked, "If this is the case, the sword should be sent, how can the scabbard be sent?" ”
"Sending the sword is too obvious, the prince wants Ge Gong to take the initiative to attack and find the sword into the sheath to defend himself"
Feng Baozhen asked more, "Sharp sword?" What does this refer to? ”
Lu Kai said bluntly: "Tao family!" ”
Feng Baozhen said, "I understand, no wonder Da Situ went to Gefu yesterday to make it difficult"
"Da Situ went to Gefu yesterday!" Lu Kai's body and mind trembled, "What is he going to do?" ”
Feng Baozhen told Lu Kai what happened yesterday.
Yesterday, after Shen Zhang met with everyone at the Tao family, he originally wanted to go back, but before he left the Tao family, he asked Yue Zhengyan to stop.
Yue Zhengyan said, "Borrow a step to speak"
Shen Zhang pointed to the carriage outside the door and "got on the car and said"
The two of them sat down in the car, and Yue Zhengyan asked out loud first, "I just listened to Da Situ inside, is the prince trying to suppress the Shi clan?" ”
Shen Zhang said this in it, and he said it clearly, since Yue Zhengyan was shrewd enough to hear it, there was really no reason to come out to ask, and there must be different opinions when asked.
Shen Zhang pondered Yue Zhengyan for a moment: "Do you think this ceremony doesn't mean that?" ”
Before Yue Zhengyan expressed his opinion, he first asked, "Where did Da Situ come from to guess like this?" ”
Shen Zhang smiled faintly and said, "This is the opinion of the martial lieutenant"
The corners of Yue Zhengyan's mouth sneered slightly, "Sure enough, Wu Wei hates the Shi clan, and Da Situ also knows that if there are preconceived ideas about some things, then some selfish intentions will be mixed in."
Shen Zhang didn't dare to ignore Yue Zhengyan's meaning, so he asked seriously, "So what do you mean?" ”
Yue Zhengyan said: "The prince will not be so anxious, even if he wants to suppress the Shi clan, what's the use of telling Ge Gong?" In my opinion, the meaning of this scabbard is to persuade Ge Gong to take the initiative to attack, and the Tao family will soon be in trouble."
Shen Zhang frowned, "The Tao family can't have any trouble now!" It's not easy to do a lot of things without the Tao family."
Yue Zhengyan's eyes became heavier and said, "So, Da Situ might as well go to Ge's house for a walk."
"Take a walk?" Shen Zhang didn't know whether to be angry or laugh at this, "I can't invite anyone, how can Gong Ge let me enter the mansion?" ”
Yue Zhengyan said ruthlessly, "Da Situ, some people don't eat soft ones, so they have to come hard."
Although the situation of Shen Jiancheng's return to the dynasty cannot be said to be dangerous, it also makes the situation more complicated, Ge Yuquan toasted so much and didn't eat, Shen Zhang had already wanted Ge Yuquan to eat a glass of wine, but Shen Zhang still seemed a little hesitant, "Is this possible?" ”
Yue Zhengyan said to death, "Da Situ, don't think about Ge Gong, he will not fall to our side, he is not a friend, he can only be an enemy."
Shen Zhang closed his eyes for a moment and nodded slowly, "That's right, it's not a friend, it can only be an enemy, it should be a warning, if he can know the fun, it's the best, such as being stubborn." ”
The words behind him didn't come out, but Shen Zhang's eyes showed a fierce light.
Pan Qi said that Shen Jiancheng wanted to suppress the Shi clan, which was indeed selfish, just like Yue Zhengyan said, even if he wanted to suppress this matter, it was useless to say that Ge Yuquan was useless, Yue Zhengyan's idea coincided with Lu Kai.
How to guess one thing depends on what the position is, Ge Yuquan is not stupid, he didn't know what the scabbard meant at first, and it was clear when he sat down and thought about it.
Miao Xiangyuan saw that Shen Jiancheng was also in a hurry, and he pulled the towel in his hand and walked back and forth, "Did the master guess wrong, how could the prince mean this?"
Ge Yuquan sat indifferently and held the teacup, "Madam, don't worry, the prince doesn't say that this is the situation now, if we don't touch the Tao family, the Tao family will come to touch us in the future."
"But, but we can't do this either" At the thought of having to fight with the Tao family, Miao Xiangyuan was so anxious that she almost fainted.
This matter is not trivial, if you want to do it, you can't turn back, Ge Yuquan can't panic, it's just that he can't panic, how can others sit still if he is in a panic.
Shen Jiancheng's move made Ge Yuquan helpless, Ge Yuquan said bitterly, "As soon as this ceremony is introduced, it is not for us to do it, but also for us to do it, Madame thinks that Da Situ doesn't know the meaning of the prince's ceremony?" ”
Miao Xiangyuan was very uneasy, but she was still lucky, and said, "Knowing is knowing, but before you do it, there is still room for everything."
"Leeway?" Ge Yuquan couldn't see that there was any room for this, Ge Yuquan said, "There is no room for this, there is only one countermeasure"
"What countermeasures?"
"Fight it!"
Miao Xiangyuan only felt that her legs were numb, and she seemed to be in a trance and sat down on the couch.
Ge Yuquan persuaded him, "Madam, don't worry too much, even if you make a big move, it doesn't mean that Dao Ming will rush to do it, if you are careful, it won't be without a chance."
Miao Xiangyuan was about to speak, but she heard someone hurriedly come to report, "Master, madam, Da Situ is here"
Ge Yuquan's eyes widened and he was taken aback, and Miao Xiangyuan was like a bird with a frightened bow, "Master. . . ”
Ge Yuquan got up and held Miao Xiangyuan's hand, trying to appease Miao Xiangyuan with the temperature of his palm, Ge Yuquan exhaled deeply as if waiting for the enemy in battle, "Don't be afraid, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and when the host's guests come to the door, they can't be seen."
