Chapter 184: Don't dare not do it
What the Marquis of Zhennan asked Fu to do was that between two and three quarters of an hour after the banquet began, several truckloads of fine wine from the capital would be delivered to the east gate of the palace, and Luo Zhongshu, who was the Cheng of Guanglu Temple, would check and receive the wine there.
When Fu heard about it, he led Meng Yue to look at Luo Zhongshu from a distance.
At this time, the prince will be led to appear nearby. As long as the prince saw Meng Yue, Fu quickly brought Meng Yue back, and her task was completed.
The prince was already drunk, and when he saw the mature and beautiful Meng Yue, Meng Yue was like a concubine, he was fascinated, and he would definitely send someone to follow him if nothing else......
Compared with letting the emperor see Meng Yue, Zhao Guifei and others were more willing to let the prince see it. If the prince can't hold on to the catastrophe, he can not only prevent the emperor from seeing King Ping and Concubine Qu, but also hit the Chengguo Mansion, and even more so the prince. If the emperor is unwilling to endure it anymore, it is better to abolish the prince directly.
This arrangement can also avoid the Meng family's suspicion of Fu to the greatest extent. Even if they blamed him, Fu also listened to Cheng Guogong's words and did bad things with good intentions. She will be punished for her carelessness, but she will not lose the love of Chengguo Gong and the title of Duchess Chengguo......
Fu gritted his teeth with hatred. The old man and the old lady are not dead yet, and Meng Cimo and his wife are grasping their handles, so they can't wait to let themselves take this step. His status and good reputation in the Guogong Mansion for so many years are likely to be greatly affected because of this incident.
They didn't keep their promises, they didn't kill or maim Meng Cimo, so why should they take this risk?
But she didn't dare not do it......
Fu was thinking about it, and Meng Yue, who was holding a tray, walked in.
"Is my mother better? I specially asked the girl to boil some rice porridge, refreshing, and my mother drank a little. ”
If she is at home, she will make porridge by herself.
Fu shook his head and said, "Disgusting, I don't want to eat it." ”
Meng Yue put the tray on the table next to the small bed and persuaded, "Put yam in the porridge, mother eat less." ”
She helped Fu up and leaned on the head of the bed, and fed Fu one spoon at a time.
Seeing Meng Yue like this, Fu's heart felt two points softer. If that happens, she is a separate identity and is not qualified to enter the palace. However, her grandfather was Meng Ling, who fought for the Jin Dynasty and fought in the east and west and was highly respected by the emperor, and the emperor may not make an exception in front of the old man.
It's just that she has this face, and she enters the palace in such a form, and the emperor and the queen mother will not treat her. She is soft and simple, and I don't know how long she can live there......
But thinking of the threat of Zhennanhou, and thinking of Meng Cimo, who had been against him since he was a child, Fu's heart hardened again.
Fu reluctantly drank half a bowl of porridge and pushed the bowl away.
She closed her eyes and said to Meng Yue, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, "Somehow, my mother feels more and more that her body is not good, and I don't know how long I can live." ”
Meng Yue's eyes welled up with tears, "Mother......"
Fu Shi held Meng Yue's hand and said, "Mother knows that you are filial, so I will say that." Alas, you have been kind and simple since you were a child, and among the children, you are the one I am most worried about. This morning, I told your father about your family......"
Meng Yue's face was as red as rouge, "Mother, I don't want to marry again, I've had enough." ”
Fu Shi squeezed her hand tighter, "I know you're scared." Alas, at that time, I promised you to Huang Cheng, and my mother took a fancy to his family situation, talent, and appearance, and also inquired about his temperament. Where did you think that old pious woman would be so bad...... Because my mother looked away, my husband and Cimo complained a lot about me, thinking that it was I, the stepmother, who deliberately pushed my stepdaughter into the fire pit......"
Meng Yue hurriedly said, "Mother, I know that you are really good for me, I have explained it to my grandfather, grandmother, and Cimo." ”
Fu Shi sighed, "Is your explanation useful?" Not to mention them, even your father complained about me. It's not good to be a stepmother, I really died unjustly. As she spoke, her eyes turned red, and she said, "This Xiao Luo that your father said is very good, Jinshi and younger brother, there is only one daughter, although she is a few years older, but it will hurt people when she is older." I heard that his elders are gentle, and his temper is good. Your father gave me a chance to take you to see him, if you are satisfied, it is better, if you are not satisfied, your mother is also a bad deal. ”
After speaking, Yin Yin looked at Meng Yue.
Meng Yue lowered her head when she was looked at by Fu Shi, bit her lip, and pondered for a moment before she raised her head with red circles and said, "Mother, I promise to think about it." I still don't want to marry again, just thinking about it for my mother. ”
Fu Shi said earnestly, "Silly boy, you can't talk full, if Lord Xiao Luo is really good, you can agree." A person's life is long, your father and I died, Xin'er remarried, the people Cimo and Ciyu care about the most are their daughters-in-law and children, who can you rely on? You can't let me and your father die without turning a blind eye. ”
Fu Shi's eyes were full of concern, his tone was soft, Meng Yue was embarrassed and moved, and tears welled up in her eyes.
She swallowed even more, "Mother, I know you feel sorry for me, I always knew it. ”
Fu Shi stretched out his hand to comb her hair, and said with a smile, "Silly girl, you are the girl I brought up since I was a child, of course I feel sorry for you......"
The two talked softly, and suddenly a man's voice came from outside, "The Internal Affairs Office has sent wine, at the east gate of the palace." Lord Luo is there to hand over, let's go and see if we can ask for a drink. ”
A few strings of footsteps faded away.
Fu Shi smiled, "Lord Xiao Luo is one of the officials in charge of the banquet, and the Lord Luo they are talking about must be him." I felt better, and we went out to see him from afar. If Yue'er really can't look down on it, forget it. ”
Meng Yue's face was flushed, and she was unwilling, "Mother, it's not good." ”
"What's so bad. Before many families get married, both men and women look at each other. It is a variety of flower banquets, and it is also to let those unmarried men and women look at each other first, and then talk about kissing after seeing each other. We just went out for a walk and looked at it from afar, and it was a coincidence. ”
Meng Yue was still unwilling. Lao Guogong, Cheng Guogong, Meng Cimo, and Fu Shi have repeatedly warned her that she is absolutely not allowed to approach the palace and not be seen by the emperor.
"Mother, didn't you let me go near that yard?"
Fu Shi smiled, "Silly boy, let's not go to the front." That person doesn't say that he won't come out now, and even if he does, he will go through the front entrance. ”
Meng Yue couldn't, so she had to serve her in person, put on her clothes, and the two walked out of the tent together.
The dusk after the rain was beautiful. The sky in the west is full of colorful clouds, and there are several golden rays of light in the middle of the clouds. On the other side, the sky was blue, without a trace of white clouds, as if it had just been washed.
The tents are densely packed and similar in shape, mostly earthy white, but also earthy yellow. I'm afraid that it will be difficult to distinguish, and there is a number plate on the lintel.
There were very few pedestrians shuttling between the tents, most of them were subordinates, and there were patrolling soldiers.
Meng Yue held Fu's arm, followed by two girls, and several people picked up a clean place and walked to the back of the palace.
