Chapter 638: Night Rain in the Golden Pond
"Empress Dowager Li has great wisdom." After a while, Guo Shengcai sighed in a low voice.
can give such a peerless blade of the Lu family to the latecomers who marry into the royal family, and to those girls she doesn't know or know, this mind, this handwriting, so that he doesn't know how to express the hot belly.
No wonder the legend of the Empress Dowager Li is everywhere, and Gaozu, even Taizu, only exists in sacrifices and history books.
"General Lu said that these guards in the palace were all brought out by him and then brought into the capital, what about the former Lu family guards?" Guo Sheng didn't know what to think of, and suddenly asked.
"The former head of the Lu family, the uncle of General Lu, has always been by the side of the Empress Dowager Zheng, and the day before the death of the Empress Dowager Zheng, the head of the Lu family fell ill and died."
Li Xia pursed his lips tightly and continued after a moment: "The guards of the previous head of the family, there are some of the inner guards. ”
Guo Sheng's face was slightly pale, this death was too coincidental.
"Is this lifelong allegiance the life of the head of the Lu family, or is it?"
"The head of the Lu family, after Jin Niangniang leaves, point out General Lu to the prince......" Li Xia's words paused, his eyelids drooped slightly, "I don't have to hide this from you, before Niangniang left, she gave me this generation of the Lu family, this is Niangniang's promise to me, I let General Lu protect the safety of the prince wholeheartedly, it is my promise to Niangniang." ”
"Then the Empress Dowager Zheng?" These words came out of Guo Sheng's mouth, and there was a feeling of being squeezed out.
"Well, when the Empress Dowager Zheng asked for the first emperor to marry Jin Niangniang, there was a promise, after the first emperor, the one who sat on the throne must be the blood of Jin Niangniang, if Jin Niangniang has no queen, the person who inherits the throne will be designated by Jin Niangniang.
Jin Niangniang and the Jin family are not gullible people, the promise of the Empress Dowager Zheng must have enough weight, and only the Lu family can afford this weight. Probably because of this, Empress Dowager Zheng wanted the head of the Lu family to die in front of her. ”
Li Xia's voice was light and cold, "The Lu family chooses to serve later, there is a rule, to have a son, when the Empress Dowager Zheng is on a big trip, she must feel that there is no last resort, she must not have imagined that Niangniang later gave birth to the prince." ”
The corner of Li Xia's mouth smiled faintly.
"The prince is really the ...... of the first emperor" Guo Sheng really couldn't help the sudden gossip, and in the end, he raised his hand and waved.
"What do you say?" Li Xia glanced at him, and then said, "This is not something you should think about. Ask General Lu if you know who the guards were and where they went, how many of the palace guards were the old people of his uncle, and whether these old people had visited him or not, and what to ask. ”
"Yes." After a yes, it was Guo Sheng who let out a long sigh, "General Lu often mentions his eldest brother, the eldest son of his uncle, and his eldest brother treats him very well. ”
"Well, now the one in charge of the Lu family in the south is his eldest brother. What's going on over there with Jin Gui? Li Xia changed the subject.
"Go well, in a few days, and it'll be almost." Guo Sheng bowed to answer, and when he saw Li Xia signaling that there was nothing else to do, he lowered his hand and withdrew.
……………………
In the afternoon, it began to drizzle, and until the evening, it did not stop, but fell heavier.
Jin Zhuoyan and Guo Sheng wore robes and hats, rode horses, and walked to the West Water Gate unhurriedly.
The ten views of the capital, one of which is called the night rain of Jinchi, is the Jinming Pond in the rain outside the West Water Gate.
At this time, Jin Clumsy's mood is very suitable for the bleak and gloomy night rain in Jinchi.
Out of the West Water Gate, didn't walk for long, arrived at the Jinming Pond, Guo Sheng got off the horse, threw the reins to the little guy, signaled Fugui and Changgui to follow, and Jin Clumsy said with a smile: "Let's walk along this Jinming Pond, I think this Jinchi night rain, just walk around like this, is the real scene of the night rain in Jinchi." ”
"I hate this golden pond night rain the most." Jin Zhuoyan also got off the horse, motioned to Mingjing and a few other henchmen to follow, put his hands behind his back, and walked forward side by side with Guo Sheng, frowning and sweeping around, "Those boring people who are sad and moaning without illness only think that this rain falling on the pond can also be regarded as a scene." Do you really like this? ”
"I like it now." Guo Sheng looked around very intently.
"What the hell is going on?" Jin Shuyan didn't look around, only looked at Guo Sheng, slanted at him and walked out of ten steps, and asked directly.
"The princess said, it's best if you don't know about this, and the princess didn't tell the princess." Guo Sheng saw a big black stone on the shore, jumped up in a few steps, stood on the tip of the stone, looked at it in a circle, and jumped down again.
"Where's Ah Feng?" Jin Zhuoyan watched him jump down, stared at him and asked.
"Then I don't know." Guo Shengji replied irresponsibly, "The Bianhe River went out of the West Water Gate and entered the Jinming Pond, and the West Water Gate went down to the Water Gate, so what about the place where it entered the Jinming Pool?" And is there a water gate? ”
Guo Sheng looked around and asked.
"There is no water gate, but there are a few dark gates." Jin Zhuoyan frowned, and his expression became a little solemn.
"This Jinming Pond only has one entrance to the Bianhe River? The amount of water in the Bianhe River is not small, but this Jinming Pond is indeed not small. Guo Sheng then said as he walked and watched.
"There are secret communications, there are sluices, and among the imperial guards, there are water ghosts who specialize in managing these water gates and sluices, all of which are selected from the southern water army."
After a pause, Jin Shuyan stared at Guo Sheng and said: "On the day of Jin Mingchi's martial arts, except for the Ming and the shore, from outside the East Water Gate to the entrance of Jin Ming Pond, and in this Jin Ming Pond, almost all the water ghosts in the imperial guards were dispatched, and they were on guard everywhere. In the first three days, the line from the East Water Gate to the West Water Gate, as well as the Jinming Pool, all the dark gates and water gates were closed. The water is more impregnable than the shore. ”
"I know that." Guo Sheng didn't seem to notice the temptation and solemnity in Jin Zhuoyan's words, and his tone was casual, "The imperial guard is already busy, and General Bai Xiao doesn't even have the time to taste a glass of wine." ”
"Fugui, go down and take a look." Guo Sheng said, reached out and grabbed the jade pendant on Jin Zhuoyan's waist, raised his hand and threw it into the water.
"Alas!" Before Jin Cunyan finished shouting, Fugui followed Yu Pei and plunged into the water like a swordfish.
"Why are you pulling my jade pendant? It was given by my aunt! Jin Cunyan glared at Guo Sheng angrily.
"I didn't." Guo Sheng patted his long shirt and was confident, "Don't worry, such a big piece of jade pendant will definitely be able to catch it." Let's move on. Guo Sheng pushed Jin Cunyan, who almost wanted to bite him.
"What the hell do you want to do?" After taking a dozen steps, Jin asked with a wrong tooth.
"It's not that you don't know the best. Tell me, how does this Jin Mingchi perform martial arts? What are the rules? The day of the martial arts performance was so lively, you look at such a big pool, there are people watching the excitement everywhere, someone has to fall into the water every year, right? What if someone falls into the water? Is there anything that can't be caught? ”
Guo Sheng looked at Jing and gossiped with Jin Zhuoyan.
