Chapter 18 Home and Country Policy

"You...... Miss Ye, how do you know? Zhang Wenyan looked at Xiao Ziling with wide eyes in surprise, and asked in disbelief - he hadn't known where he was after looking for Meng Hongye for so long, how could she, a female streamer who didn't ask about the world, know?

Xiao Ziling smiled and said: "I heard that the mother of the fourth prince is the first emperor's favorite concubine, and after the first emperor died, Concubine Lan went to Jiuhua Mountain Ganlu Temple to practice...... In my opinion, the fourth prince must be hiding in the Ganlu Temple! ”

Listening to Xiao Ziling's words, Zhang Wenyan couldn't help laughing and said, "Haha...... Hide in Ganlu Temple, this idea can be thought of by Miss Ye, don't people in the world want it? Since everyone in the world knows that the four princes will hide in Ganlu Temple, will the four princes really hide in Ganlu Temple and wait for the emperor to send someone to arrest him? ”

Hey, originally, he was surprised how Ye Xin could know the hiding place of the fourth prince, but it turned out to be a rumor she heard in the market!

Xiao Ziling didn't care about Zhang Wenyan's smile, of course she knew that it was impossible for the fourth prince to really hide in Ganlu Temple, she said this with only one purpose - to bring the topic to Concubine Lan. Next, her main event begins!

Let's get down to business!

I saw that Xiao Ziling suddenly became serious, and said loudly: "In my opinion, even if the fourth prince is not in Jiuhua Mountain, the saint is so smart today, there is always a way for him to show up!" Even if you can't let him show up, at least you can make him dare not act rashly! ”

"Oh? What's the solution? Zhang Wenyan was aroused by Xiao Ziling's words again-couldn't it be where she heard the market news and rumors?

"Now, the Queen Mother has died, if the emperor can bring Concubine Lan into the palace, serve Concubine Lan like the Queen Mother, and even crown Concubine Lan as the Queen Mother, the four princes will definitely be grateful to the emperor! If the fourth prince is grateful to the emperor, then he will give up the idea of usurping the country. Xiao Ziling said.

"What if the fourth prince is not grateful to the emperor?" Zhang Wenyan asked rhetorically, "This matter is not as simple as you imagined. ”

"Even if the fourth prince is not grateful to the emperor, he is still ambitious, but there is Concubine Lan in the palace...... The emperor can also be a little more relieved...... After all, the fourth prince is a filial person! ”

In the past, because the Queen Mother was in the palace, and the most jealous and hated person in the Queen Mother's life was Concubine Lan. Since, the Queen Mother wanted to get the clever plan to let Xiao Ziling enter the palace as a "hostage", how could she not think of the clever plan to threaten Meng Hongye by holding Concubine Lan firmly in her hands? It's just that because she hates Concubine Lan so much, the Queen Mother wants to send her to a place where she can't see it.

What she means is that with Concubine Lan as a hostage in the palace, the fourth prince will definitely have some concerns, so he will not dare to act rashly?! - Well, that's right! This Ye Xin is really smart, and he actually came up with such a clever plan! After returning to Beijing, he will tell the emperor about this clever plan!

Actually, where is this clever plan that Xiao Ziling came up with? She just imitated the Queen Mother and Meng Hongyu who held her in the palace as a "hostage" and reciprocated the favor!

Xiao Ziling couldn't care about too clever strategies and too clever words that would make Zhang Wenyan suspicious, she only remembered to give advice to Meng Hongyu wholeheartedly, so as to ensure that he would be stable and well. Therefore, she continued: "Everyone only thinks that the emperor will definitely send someone to guard and monitor Concubine Lan in Ganlu Temple, however, Jiuhua Mountain is far away from the capital after all, and as the saying goes, far water can't save near fire, if something really happens...... When the time comes, it will be beyond the reach of the whip. Therefore, it is better to approach Concubine Lan to the palace and put it under your nose......"

Zhang Wenyan listened to Xiao Ziling's words quietly, and couldn't help but feel a sense of respect in his heart, however, in addition to admiration, he was more curious: "Miss Ye...... How can you know so much about national affairs? Miss Ye's insight is not like that of ordinary women, it is like coming from the mouth of a man! ”

Xiao Ziling was slightly stunned, and then realized his "gaffe", so he quickly covered up the uneasiness in his heart with a smile, and said with a smile: "Because-I'm not an ordinary woman!" ”

Ga? Zhang Wenyan was even more surprised when she heard it - she was not an ordinary woman...... Could it be that she will be the daughter of Jiangmen and the queen of important ministers?

Xiao Ziling smiled and said jokingly: "I'm a 'young widow' woman...... Now that I am still pregnant with a 'posthumous child', you say, I am not the same as ordinary people and ordinary happy women......"

Then, she continued to lie: "The 'former husband' is a famous guard on the border, and he often talks about family and country affairs with friends when he has nothing to do......

Zhang Wenyan couldn't help but remember that when she was in the hospital before, Xiao Ziling had said that her husband had died on the battlefield, so she heard all these family and country strategies and good opportunities from her husband?

Sure enough, Zhang Wenyan also believed Xiao Ziling's words, but he was still curious in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "Miss Ye's husband...... What kind of people are they? ”

What kind of people? Xiao Ziling couldn't help but think of Meng Hongyu's affectionate eyes and handsome face in his heart, what kind of person is he? Is he affectionate or ruthless? Is it a warm person or a cold person? Is it a person who is as calm as a mountain or a person who is suspicious and insecure? What kind of person is her "former husband" in her heart?

"He's a ...... The person I try to forget......" Xiao Ziling's eyes suddenly moistened, and his voice choked.

Seeing her so sad and sad, Zhang Wenyan suddenly regretted his rudeness - why did he ask curiously about these old things and make her sad?

Zhang Wenyan secretly vowed: In the future, he will never ask her about her ex-husband in front of her!

The sun is gone, the willows are on the moon, and the faint moonlight is sprinkled in the courtyard, like a thin frost in early autumn. The moonlight casts the leaves of the sycamore on the ground one by one, swaying like a dream.

It is a wonderful thing to complete a farewell under such a beautiful moonlight, cook wine and talk about the affairs of the world, drink under the moonlight, and take the breeze as your sleeve!

Xiao Ziling poured another half glass of thin wine and said to Zhang Wenyan: "Finally, I salute Brother Zhang...... May Brother Zhang have a safe journey! I hope that when the Ming Dynasty wakes up, it will only be a misty dream when the fate with me is ......"

Yes, she never wants to see Zhang Wenyan again, she just wants to treat him as a passerby in her life, and she doesn't want to have any entanglement with him! Now, she has fulfilled her last wish, and offered her family and country policy to Meng Hongyu through the mouth of Zhang Wenyan, then, in the future, she can be free of worries......

Three glasses and two light wines are in the stomach, it is already the middle of the moon, and it should be a parting gift tomorrow morning, so it will be completed in advance under this beautiful moonlight!

So, for the first time, Xiao Ziling sent Zhang Wenyan to the mouth of Qingshi Alley, and then watched his back gradually disappear in the moonlight......

Farewell, those love and hatred, those who are like water......
