Chapter 703: His Throne
Chu Xia was on the big boat of the Nangong family, dutifully doing the first trick in the capital, and had a lot of fun.
And Zhuang Rou just found some suspicious points in Zhou Long's intelligence, and an entourage that Chu Xia threw in the house came to report that someone outside asked to see her, it was a woman.
Zhuang Rou thought that Sun Zhiling came to thank her and found her unlovely cousin, so she naturally had to come to thank her.
She asked her attendants to invite people in and prepare tea.
These entourages brought by Chu Xia are not too wasteful to be idle, Zhuang Rou is not polite, so he treats them as his own subordinates.
Soon, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and Zhuang Rou pulled out a piece of paper and covered the things she had copied on the table.
She raised her head and looked at the door, waiting for Sun Zhiling to come in, but what she didn't want to come was a woman in her thirties with a maid ring and excellent charm.
Wearing a cloak and wearing a brocade dress that only the official eunuchs and their families can afford to wear, there is a great difference between them and the women in the city.
At a glance, you can know that this is a noble lady who is pampered and lives a rich life.
Zhuang Rou looked at her with some surprise, this person didn't know her at all.
The woman smiled at Zhuang Rou and said with a pleasant face: "I think you don't know me, but I know you." ”
"My surname is Zhuang, and if you count it according to your generation, you still have to call me a little aunt. I am your father's ninth sister, so you can call me Aunt Zhuang Ya. ”
Zhuang Rou looked at her stunned, what the hell?
She then said with an apologetic expression: "This lady, it's really unfortunate, Zhuang Juma went out just now, and I am her subordinate." It's better to leave the address where you live, and when the horse returns, I will tell her about it at once. ”
"Rou'er is really good at joking." Zhuang Ya smiled and walked into the house, as if she was the master here, and sat on the Taishi chair by the wall.
The girl didn't follow, but just stood in the doorway, staring at the attendant who had led them over.
Chu Xia's entourage was very well-behaved, and when he heard that this was his aunt seeing his niece, he thought it was a serious relative meeting, so he retreated.
The woman that adults fancy can wave the shield of nearly 100 catties and kill people like hemp, so there is no need to worry about what will happen to her.
Zhuang Rou looked at Zhuang Ya who was sitting down, she was dignified, very official wife, combing a woman's hair bun, and wearing jewelry that was luxurious but unassuming.
At this time, an attendant came over with tea.
Looking at the tea bowl on the table next to Zhuang Ya, Zhuang Rou regretted that it was too early to call for tea, and the people of the Zhuang family didn't have to give tea at all, and it was cheap for them to drink well water.
Zhuang Rou didn't take the initiative to say anything, just looked at Zhuang Ya a few times, and then looked at the girl ring at the door, this eighty percent is the person of the Wang family who is attached to the Zhuang family.
Although she didn't say anything, Zhuang Ya, who was socializing with the ladies and chores of various mansions all day, opened her mouth with an unmoved face, "Take a closer look, Rou'er, you really look like my sister-in-law Bo Fu." ”
Sling the bull!
Zhuang Rou rolled her eyes in her heart, since she was a child, she knew that she didn't look like her mother, but more like her father. If she looks like her mother, then she can be called a great beauty now.
"I think at the beginning, Sister Rong Xian lived not far from our house, and when the seventh brother was very young, he liked Sister Rong Xian, and he always went to the house to find her to play." Zhuang Ya recalled the past, and a happy smile appeared on her face.
She looked at Zhuang Rou, her eyes were full of love, "Later, Sister Rong Xian entered the palace and became the big palace maid next to the queen's mother, and the seventh brother was so angry that she came to Dahao." This is unpredictable, there are lovers who eventually become married, who would have thought that the seventh brother and sister Rong Xian would be able to continue the front again. ”
"Although both of them have passed away, you are still Sister Rong Xian's most cherished treasure."
If Zhuang Rou wasn't Rong Xian's biological daughter, she would have to believe what Zhuang Ya said, what a lover, what the most cherished treasure.
Memories of her childhood, irrepressibly appeared in her mind, her mother, who was beaten by her father and bruised her body, cried silently behind her back, and only smiled when she saw her brother.
The woman who pressed her neck, made her fall to the ground, her forehead pressed against the floor, and kept saying in her ear, "You must always listen to your brother, protect your brother with your life, and ...... forever".
Her favorite treasure is her brother, Zhuang Xuewen......
Zhuang Rou frowned and interrupted Zhuang Ya's words, "That dog thief pushed my mother out to block the knife when life and death were at stake. If it weren't for luck, I would have become his meat shield, so don't you know who your seventh brother is? ”
"No, it should be that the dealer is all some kind of ghost, I don't think Mrs. has to forcibly add flowers to it, I'm not a three-year-old child, can I still throw myself into your arms and cry and call my little aunt?" She said indifferently.
Zhuang Ya didn't expect this to be the case, after all, as long as the parties didn't say it, they wouldn't be able to find out at all.
However, she is also a person who has seen countless scenes, and she didn't even be stunned for a moment, so she sighed softly, "The people of the Zhuang family are walking on thin ice every day under the imperial power, and it is extremely difficult to live to see the sunshine of the next day." ”
"When encountering life and death, subconsciously self-preservation is the misfortune of the Zhuang family. It's easy to die, but as long as you live, you have to bear this pain, you can't sleep day and night, but you have to struggle to live like a walking corpse in the world. ”
Zhuang Ya shook her head sadly, "Who knows this pain." ”
At this time, Zhuang Rou had already kicked Zhuang Jin's idiot out of the impression of the Zhuang family, and the woman in front of him was the same as the Zhuang servant, and she was the appearance of the serious Zhuang family.
These people are really amazing!
She then spoke: "If you have something to say, leave if you have nothing to do, what do you mention my mother do, she will die a long time ago." ”
Zhuang Ya couldn't hide the sadness and loss on her face, and muttered: "I just want you to know that Seventh Brother and your mother really love each other, if you hadn't disappeared, I would have taken you back to ......"
Bang!
Zhuang Rou smashed the table next to him with one palm, got up and stared at Zhuang Ya fiercely, "If you don't know how to speak, get out, otherwise I'll let you stand up and go out." ”
The girl at the door stared at her vigilantly, ready to rush in at any moment.
"Believe it or not, I can let you and that girl die here immediately, just get out of here if it's okay!" Zhuang Rou said disdainfully.
Zhuang Ya looked up at her calmly, and did not panic, but put away the sad look just now, took a sip of the teacup, and then smiled: "The little girl is really anxious, so let's get down to business." ”
"Since you don't like to listen to it, I'll say it bluntly, the old man thinks that among all the children, I, a concubine, am still a person who can treat people gently and talk to you well, so let me come here."
At this time, she was like a shopkeeper talking about business, and said competently: "You may know that our dealer has done things for the emperor in Qingliang Kingdom, and he has won the emperor's favor in all dynasties, even if the prince sees us, he has to give some face." ”
"But there is a premise, that is, the emperor can't do without us, and he has to use us to deal with those disobedient officials and princes with other thoughts. If the world is peaceful and the country and the people are safe, the emperor will not need us. ”
"The power is high, and there is nothing we can do, so there is only one end, that is, to be swept into the corner and exterminate the family. At that time, even if the emperor didn't do it, the officials who had offended us over the years would want to swallow us alive. ”
Of course, Zhuang Rou knew that as long as she had a lot of power and was useless, she would naturally be eliminated, but what did it matter to her?
She laughed, "I'm not from the Qingliang Zhuang family, and I can't find my head when I destroy your clan." ”
"I knew you would say that, as long as you stay here, it naturally has nothing to do with you." Zhuang Ya said with a smile, "But in order to protect ourselves, we have to let Qingliang have something to do, and we have to worry that the emperor doesn't dare to attack us." ”
"When the queen fled at that time, she took the prince and the prince, although the prince was accidentally killed by the people in the Dahao palace attracted by the seventh brother, but the prince is still there."
Zhuang Rou stared at Zhuang Ya, she didn't know this, she hadn't been born at that time.
Zhuang Ya glanced at her, took a slow sip of tea, and then continued: "Although the prince is the prince's stand-in, he is also the prince's twin brother. There are many old ministers in Qingliang Kingdom, but they are still waiting for the orthodox prince to come back and succeed to the throne, so as to drive the thief off the dragon chair. ”
"Zhuang Xuewen, no, it should be that His Royal Highness Tang Shu also has this intention and regains the throne that belongs to him."
"Huh?" Zhuang Rou frowned, she knew that her brother was His Royal Highness, but her real name was Tang Shu for the first time.
But what puzzled her was not this, she said puzzledly: "Doesn't my brother want to be the emperor of Dahao, but Qingliang?" ”
Tang Ya was finally shocked by her words, "Those courtier families of Dahao, even if they let the Nangong family come back to be the emperor, it is impossible to accept someone from Qingliang Kingdom to be the emperor." ”
"Do you think it's so easy to destroy the dynasty and change generations, just kill the emperor and sit on the dragon chair?"
Zhuang Rou was speechless, she always thought that her brother wanted to be the emperor of Dahao, after all, he left Qingliang and fled to Dahao at such a young age, and his connections and many years of business were here.
Now that he is in a high position, if he wants to be an emperor, he only needs to be more vicious, he should be able to do it......
She herself was a little unsure.
There are no hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, and there is no grain and grass to transport, even if he knows that he is the crown prince now, it is impossible to just throw his hands back to Qingliang to grab the throne, right?
When Zhuang Rou found out that her brother might be ambitious last year, she really felt that if her brother became an emperor, he would definitely be a good emperor.
If he wants to be the emperor of this Dahao, then even if he goes to the soup and fire, he will keep this Dahao safe and clear all obstacles.
Eliminate the existence that threatens the security of Dahao Guotai and the people one by one.
But if he was thinking about Qingliang Kingdom, Zhuang Rou suddenly felt a little helpless, she hadn't even set foot on the land of Qingliang Kingdom.
"......" She was silent for a long time, then suddenly raised her head, looked at Zhuang Ya and said seriously, "Then the most important thing for me now is to kill everyone in the Zhuang's family, the largest Eagle Claw Jinlong Palace in Qingliang Country." ”
"In that case, your emperor will lose a lot of sources of information."
Seeing her release her killing intent, the face that was very similar to Seventh Brother revealed the same ruthlessness and determination, Zhuang Ya suddenly felt a little chilled, and hurriedly stopped: "Wait! We're here to help him! ”
