Chapter 494: Yuanshui Pavilion (4)
He pretended to be solemn and coughed lightly, and ordered the internal officials outside the door to take Haginiang and them to live in the idle courtyard of the palace, and then asked Meng Guoxiang: "Uncle, that woman, but what's wrong?" ”
Meng Guoxiang shook his head and said in a low voice: "Although this woman's background is ordinary, her experience is very mysterious, although she has been living in Jingkou before the age of fourteen, there is nothing strange about it, but since she left home at the age of fourteen, it is a blank, no matter how you inquire, I don't know where she was at the time, that is, there are neighbors, and I only guess that she may have gone to Jiankang, or Liyang, but I have never found out the slightest news about her in these two places...... It wasn't until two years later that she appeared in Huiji again, and it was from that time that Liu Lang walked with her. ”
The king also felt strange, you must know that as long as a person lives, he must have food, clothing, shelter and transportation, and it is impossible to miss no whereabouts.
He remembered a method and hurriedly asked, "Have you ever been to the temple to ask the witch?" ”
Meng Guoxiang nodded and said: "Lao Chen also thinks so, so he asked Wu Zun to calculate her life, but he got two completely different results, that is, there are two people in this woman." ”
The more he listened, the more confused he became, and he hurriedly asked, "What do you mean that there are two people?" ”
Meng Guoxiang also showed a confused look, and replied helplessly: "I also asked him what this means, but Wu Zun just said that she is two people, that's all, one of them is destined to be the supreme and noble life, but it is difficult to have a good death, and the other person is an unknown ordinary person, just a mediocre life, but a life of peace and joy, these two completely different lives are really incomprehensible." ”
When the king heard this, he was even more confused, and asked suspiciously: "The supreme and noble life? What is the explanation? ”
Meng Guoxiang shook his head and said: "Wu Zun has always done his own thing, even if you ask in person, he may not be willing to explain to you, Your Highness, let's let them go, so as not to miss a big thing." ”
The king didn't know what he thought, and couldn't help laughing.
Meng Guoxiang was taken aback, hurriedly stepped forward to support his shoulder, and asked with concern, "Your Highness, are you okay?" ”
The king got up abruptly and said with a smile: "Wu Ji and Uncle are really well aware of the king's intentions, and they are really the king's most important help, uncle, let's go rest first, this king still has some things to discuss with him." ”
Meng Guoxiang's expression was stunned, and he said sneeringly: "In this case, the old minister retired." ”
King Jian hurriedly explained: "Uncle, it's not that this king is hiding anything from you, it's just ...... This is a private matter, and I don't want to worry you rashly before the result is reached, so you can rest assured that I will tell you immediately after this king has asked about the witchcraft. ”
Meng Guoxiang saw that he was sincere, so his expression loosened a little, and he said gently: "It's okay, you young people, there are topics for young people, and my uncle is old after all......
On the other side, Hagi Niang is trying hard to talk to the palace maids around her, originally thought that entering the palace was just a matter of a few hours, and she would soon go out, so she didn't have to contact with the people in the palace, but now she was under house arrest in the palace "as a guest", if you don't inquire about the situation in the palace, I'm afraid I don't even know how to die.
"Girl, the slave maid has already told you, the palace has its own rules in the palace, except for the king and the king's heirs, all the other men must live in the outer courtyard, this is impossible to have a special exception......
"It's okay, since they all live in the outer courtyard, then please place me in the outer courtyard as well." Hagi Niang hurriedly continued.
The palace maid was a little stunned for a moment, but she shook her head and said: "No, the king has ordered, please live in Beiyuan, the yard has been cleaned in advance, and please don't embarrass the slaves......"
Hagi Niang asked about the information she wanted to know, and couldn't help but sigh faintly, a strange feeling welled up in her heart, this intuition is really annoying, could it be that this king has any thoughts about himself?
But didn't he say before that he wanted to get married to his slave today?
Hagi Niang looked at the huge palace around her, which was completely unfamiliar, and only felt a lonely and cold feeling, this bad premonition made her very unhappy, it was like when she was in Cuihua Palace, the feeling of being confined, and having no one to trust, and no one to confide in.
Hey, if only I had promised to come down then!
Hagi Niang couldn't help but pat her head helplessly, she was stupid, even if she wanted to get married, if she didn't want to, would she still force herself to fail, it was much better than being locked up in the palace silently like this.
The other palace maid had a sweet mouth, and when she saw that Hagi Niang was unhappy, she hurriedly smiled and persuaded: "Girls don't have to be anxious, although this Beiyuan is relatively remote, but the king has specially ordered someone to arrange it carefully, it can be seen that the king still attaches great importance to you, and he will come to pamper you soon." If you win the favor of the king and have the king's heir, maybe you will be able to have a serious concubine title at that time. ”
This is really a pot that can't be opened, Hagi Niang's heart was worried, and when she said this, she lowered her eyes and was depressed.
But the palace maid was looking at her affectionately, she could only squeeze out a smile, and asked casually according to her words: "Who is the most favored concubine of the king now, do you know?" ”
Speaking of this gossip, women are most interested, and the two palace maids hurriedly replied: "Naturally, it is the cousin who grew up with Wang Qingmei's sweetheart, that is, Concubine Meng of Shaoxia Palace." ”
Eminent......
Don't?
Hagi Niang hurriedly asked curiously: "Could it be that this Concubine Meng is the daughter of Meng Guoxiang?" ”
The two palace maids really replied with a smile: "Exactly, His Royal Highness had convened the ministers to discuss the canonization of Concubine Meng as the queen before, but it was because of Meng Guoxiang's own resolute opposition, this is just that, Meng Guoxiang is not only His Highness's teacher, but also His Highness's uncle, if it is said to be a kiss and a kiss, it is very good, but I don't know why he wants to refuse His Highness's kindness, this is not something that we slaves and maids can understand......"
"And who is your king's queen now?"
When asked this question, the two girls both looked disdainful, and one said angrily: "Hey, the king is so handsome and upright, he wants to marry that ugly monster of the Luo tribe as the queen!" One of them was also not very happy and said: "The matter has not yet been settled, you see, the king will definitely not marry that ugly bastard." ”
Forehead......
It turns out that this king has not yet been established.
Hagi Niang only listened to these few words, and almost immediately sorted out the current situation.
The magnates of the Luo tribe must have used various means to exert pressure to force the king to marry the daughter of the Luo tribe nobles.
And Meng Guoxiang was unwilling to cause disputes between the two clans, and on the other hand, he was also unwilling to let his daughter be on the cusp, so he was unwilling to make his daughter the queen.
