Chapter 393: Blocking the Road
Shu Yu couldn't explain to Meng and Qi for a while, so he could only quietly give the two of them a reassuring look, signaling them to be at ease.
Although Meng and Qi were puzzled, thinking about what Shu Yu had been doing, none of them was not for the good of Han Yan and Xiao Wang, so they had to put down their hearts full of confusion and sit upright in their seats.
The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, who were sitting at the top, didn't expect Shu Yu to dare to refute them in public and disrupt their plans, and after being slightly stunned, the eyes that looked at Shu Yu immediately became dark and sharp.
It is impossible to say that he is not afraid at all in his heart, but when he thought of Xiao Wangzhi, who was accepting the congratulations of the ministers in the previous dynasty at this time, Shu Yu immediately straightened his waist again, mustered up his courage, and looked at the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother without fear, as if he did not understand their hints, and his expression was natural and frank.
Seeing this, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager were not sure for a moment whether Shu Yu had inadvertently mentioned Emperor Yuan Jia's previous remarks about whitewashing the peace, or whether she intended to embarrass them, lowered her eyelids slightly, thought silently, and silently expressed her displeasure.
For a moment, the entire hall was so quiet that it could be heard that pins were falling.
In the end, it is a family, one is prosperous, one is lost, and everyone else is left alone, but Meng and Qi have to cheer up to help her - although, they still don't understand or understand why Shu Yu is protecting Zhao Guifei, who killed the Empress Dowager Duanjing.
"No matter what, the Holy One has been able to survive peacefully and smoothly to this day, thanks to Heaven's mercy! This is the day of immortality, my big week! Meng put away his tears and choked up with emotion.
In order to save Shu Yu, she even said such a big rebellious thing.
Seeing this, Qi Shi also followed up and said: "Mother is excited for a while, but her words are always right. The Great Zhou has been blessed by God, and the country is long, so the saint can be welcomed back smoothly, dominate the mountains and rivers, and support the community!
"Did you say yes or no?"
There is a woman who is close to the Han family, and when she heard this, she hurriedly took over the conversation and smoothly diverted the topic to the national fortunes of the Great Zhou.
There are people who don't want to do a lot of things and understand that they follow and say auspicious words.
All of a sudden, the entire hall swept away the previous dullness and became lively again, which actually made the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, who missed the best opportunity to question, have the intention to punish Shu Yu for disrupting their plans, and it is not good to just talk about the old things directly.
After all, Emperor Yuanjia is still alive, and Han Yan and Shu Yu are deeply trusted by the new emperor, and there is the support of the entire Han family behind them, even if one of them is the queen mother and the other is the queen mother, they can't easily cure Shu Yu's sin because of this.
Finally got to the end of the banquet, and the three mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Meng family immediately left the Ci'an Palace with all the women, and under the guidance of the inner servants, they went all the way out of the palace.
After waiting for his own carriage and driving away from the palace gate, the carriages of the surrounding companions gradually dispersed, and then Meng Shi frowned and asked, "Fang Cai, why do you want to help Zhao Zhen'er speak?" ”
"Mother, daughter-in-law is not helping Zhao Zhen'er, but helping Shengshang." Shu Yu sighed and told the Meng family and the Qi family about the agreement between Xiao Wangzhi and Emperor Yuan Jia when they were in Badger Village.
"If you really let the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother take the opportunity to make trouble, they spread the original facts. So did the Holy One keep his promise, or did he break his promise and get fat? Shu Yu asked with a sigh.
If you abide by Ruo's words and let go of Zhao Guifei, you will have to be poked in the backbone and scolded Tian for being shameless, unfilial and disloyal, and for the sake of the throne, she will abandon the Empress Dowager Duanjing, who died generously in order to save him;
But if it is broken and fat, not to mention whether it can move Zhao Guifei under the protection of Emperor Yuan Jia, just Emperor Yuan Jia's anger and counterattack can also be used by people with ulterior motives to scold Xiao Wangzhi for being unfilial and disloyal, insincere and untrustworthy.
How can an unfaithful and unfilial emperor make his subjects willingly loyal?
The Queen Mother and Mrs. Wang sang and harmonized, seemingly to fight for Xiao Wangzhi, but in fact pushed him into a situation from which he could never recover.
Meng Shi and Qi Shi thought about the joints clearly, and they were both shocked into a cold sweat.
"This time, I am fortunate that you reacted quickly and calmly, and took the opportunity to divert the topic, so that the Holy Lord did not fall into a dilemma!" Meng Shi clenched Shu Yu's hand, and couldn't stop being afraid and happy.
Shu Yu refused to take credit, and said with a smile: "That's also thanks to the cooperation of my mother and sister-in-law, otherwise how could things be so smooth?" ”
Meng and Qi were able to endure the grief of losing their daughter and sister without knowing the agreement between Xiao Wangzhi and Emperor Yuan Jia, and help her "exonerate" the enemy Zhao Guifei together.
"It's just that since the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager have made up their minds to punish Zhao Guifei, and want to take the opportunity to monopolize the power of the harem of the former dynasty, I'm afraid they won't give up willingly." Shu Yu frowned, "I'm really worried about whether the Holy One can ......cope with it when he is in the palace."
When Meng and Qi heard Shu Yu say this, they were also immediately worried, and their hearts were worried.
At this moment, the carriage stopped suddenly, and then a familiar and unfamiliar voice sounded outside the carriage: "Dare to ask, is it the car of the Han family of Taichang Siqing?" ”
The three of Meng's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hurriedly stopped talking, looked at each other, and looked wary.
Meng Shi glanced at the big girl Hongying beside him.
Hongying understood, and immediately lifted the curtain out of the carriage.
I saw a woman in an ordinary summer dress standing in front of the carriage, looking respectful and flattering.
Hongying asked with a smile: "This lady, dare to ask how to call it?" ”
The woman probably didn't expect that the conversation would be easy to succeed, and she was very happy, and when she saw Hongying asking her gently, she hurriedly bowed down and replied respectfully: "The slave family's surname is Meng, and the wife of your mansion can be regarded as their own family." ”
When Hongying heard this, she immediately restrained her smile.
There are many people with the surname Meng in the world, and they dare to climb relatives with just one surname, which is really bold for a woman.
Seeing Hongying's face calm, the woman knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she quickly raised her head and said with a flattering smile: "Back to the girl, the slave family and the second young lady of your mansion are old acquaintances!" ”
When Hong Ying heard this, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
The second young lady came from an ordinary background, maybe she really has such old knowledge.
If this is the case, then she really has to be well measured, neither snubbing the other party, nor allowing the other party to be easily entangled.
Although the second young lady was from an ordinary background, she had meritorious service to the Han family and the saint, and won the dependence and trust of the saint.
Hongying was hesitating, when she heard a voice behind her, and when she looked back, she saw Shu Yu coming out of the curtain at some point, and called the woman in front of the carriage in surprise: "Mrs. Meng?" ”
