Chapter 214: Mother and Son Talk



Thank you for the evaluation vote of MGMG Dance

The mother burst into tears in front of her son and daughter-in-law, no matter whose fault it was first, this scene made people can't help but feel sad when they see it.

Dong Li glared at Nangong Xiao, which means that you are responsible for solving the matter you provoked.

Nangong Xiao touched her forehead helplessly, so she had to persuade her mother first in a soft voice, Huang's Nangong Xiao said a few words to give her son face, she put away her tears, in the end she still felt wronged, sobbing and choking, and her delicate makeup was also messed up by tears, looking particularly pitiful.

"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, let the son-in-law explain this matter, and borrow the father-in-law's study." Nangong Xiao was speechless, it was inevitable that the Huang family didn't know anything about what was going on, and he should still have a little bit of selectivity to let her know about those things: "What about Bishu?" We also need Bishu to do us a favor when we speak. ”

Emperor Xuan didn't know how many secret agents and secret guards he had raised, these people were simply pervasive, if it weren't for the omnipotent machine of Bishu, where would they dare to say those secret things so aggressively.

"You go over first, and I'll call Bishu Dao to guard outside the study." Dongli understood, smiled at Nangong and lowered his head, turned around and went out to find Bishu, that kid has been very jubilant recently, often does not see people, and when he comes back, he often turns his clothes into ashes, holding a lot of gadgets, eating and playing and watching happily put them on the carriage, and then he was picked out by Xu and Dongli crying and laughing, but the parties are happy to do it.

Nangong Xiao gratefully gestured to his daughter-in-law, and then accompanied his unhappy mother into Master Mo's study, Bishu was quickly found back from the street by the Mo family, without exception, holding a lot of things, he recently learned to take money to buy things, he may feel very fresh, so he will run out to shop every day, a bit of a tendency to develop as a shopaholic.

As soon as the east fence said the matter, Bishu immediately obediently put down the things he was holding in his arms and ran to guard the door, this stupid boy just knew how to buy, he didn't know to bring someone to help hold things, and every time he was playing acrobatics, he piled up things all over his body and came back slowly, and he always caused others to watch on the road.

Master Mo's study is extremely simple and generous, except for the tables and chairs of Huanghuali, there are all bulky bookshelves, which are full of books, and a cluster of lively daisies is inserted in a quaint porcelain vase on the table, which embellishes this solemn and heavy atmosphere with a bit of liveliness.

Hearing that Bishu had come, Nangong Xiao sighed at the Huang family, who kept wiping his tears: "Mother, you are simply forcing your son to die by doing this!" ”

Huang was stunned for a moment, and wiped away his tears angrily: "I forced you? If you didn't leave your own mother alone, but you had to go to Liaodong for your mother-in-law, would I do this? It's not that I'm going to force you to death, it's clear that you want to force me to death! ”

"Mother, listen to your son first." Nangong Xiao made a temporary stop gesture with the palms of his hands forward, and took a long breath: "There are many things that my father and I are hiding from everyone in the mansion, and these things are very important, I can't tell you, but that's what I can say, if your son doesn't go to Liaodong, it is very likely that he will lose his life." ”

Huang stood up suddenly, and looked at his son with a serious face in his eyes: "Let me tell you, don't think that I will believe you if you say that the matter is so serious, who will kill you?" You are the son of the dignified Zhenbei Hou, and the status of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion is transcendent, who can threaten you? ”

"What if it's the emperor?" Nangong Xiao asked rhetorically. No matter how transcendent the status of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion is, can it still be compared to the high saint? ”

Huang covered his mouth in horror, as if he had not thought of this possibility at all, and only found his voice after a long time: "How is it possible? The emperor values you so much, the queen mother likes you so much, yes, you must be talking nonsense, you dare to talk nonsense about anything for your wife, no, you have to go back to the capital with me, I can't ask you to continue to mix with these people who have no future and self-motivation, this will ruin you, you go back with me, go to the emperor to intercede and take back his will, and ask them to go to Liaodong by themselves! Mother chooses another good girl for you, so that our family can't afford a daughter-in-law who can make trouble. ”

"Mother, you still don't understand what I mean." Nangong Xiao had a headache, how could his mother also be from a big family, why did she have no study of the political situation, she was simply a foolish woman who never interfered in the front hall in the boudoir: "Do you think that with the position of the Marquis of Zhenbei Holding Military Power, you can continue to be safe and stable?" How many times has the emperor tried to take back the power in his father's hands since the war in northern Xinjiang subsided, do you know? If nothing else, you have been trying to marry your cousin in the house a few days ago, why have your father and grandmother refused to agree? It's not just because of the marriage contract that year, and it's not because my cousin is too willful to bear this burden, she is the young lady of Anguo Mansion, although An Guogong is about to face a demotion, it is only an empty title, unlike the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion who holds real power, but after all, the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, and the emperor absolutely does not want to see the marriage of our two families. ”

Once the two of them get married, they will immediately become a thorn in the side of Emperor Jin Xuan, I am afraid that Emperor Jin Xuan will not be able to sleep at night by that time, and he will definitely put other things aside first and concentrate on dealing with the Zhenbei Hou Mansion that is becoming more and more difficult to control.

Huang seems to be scared to find her just to find a daughter-in-law for herself, how can she have anything to do with national affairs?

"Mother, we are at the center of the power struggle, and every move must be carefully considered, and the slightest carelessness will bring incalculable consequences." Nangong Xiao rarely calmed down and talked to his mother about these court matters: "Why doesn't my father easily associate with those princes and ministers? Isn't it just to avoid suspicion, I don't want the emperor to think that our Zhenbei Hou Mansion has ill intentions, especially the existence of Aunt Cui, our family has been invisibly involved with the eldest prince, once such a major event as seizing the heir is involved, it is an abyss, even my father has to avoid it, and set off to fight in Wara in northern Xinjiang. ”

Huang was stunned for a moment and then couldn't think anymore, he could only stare and listen to his son tell those confidential things one by one, it turned out that her husband suddenly went to the north to avoid the capital.

"As for my son," Nangong Xiao smiled bitterly: "Your son is unlucky, he happened to offend the emperor fiercely before leaving Beijing, and he may be eager to get rid of me soon." Your son, I have no other choice but to stay away. ”

Huang's brain is almost knotted, she has only fought with a group of women in the inner house in her life, and she has always fallen behind, how have she ever heard of those things in the court, in her opinion, her father-in-law's son led the army to fight regardless of life and death, which in exchange for the peace of northern Xinjiang is a great merit and should be rewarded, but why did the emperor not only reward them, but doubled the precautions?

"Mother, it's my own idea for my son to go to Liaodong." Nangong Xiao looked at his mother's tangled look, and his heart softened again, squatting in front of the Huang family and holding her hand: "It was my son's idea, I wrote a letter to my father to ask the emperor, although Liaodong is desolate, it is far away from the capital, my son can take this opportunity to stay away from right and wrong, and others have not been to Northern Xinjiang I don't know, in fact, Liaodong is not far from the Northern Xinjiang Army commanded by my father, and our father and son can still contact each other." ”

"Really?" Naturally, the Huang family has never been to the north, but he doesn't know this, not only her, but even Emperor Jinxuan, as the king of a country, doesn't know this, otherwise he wouldn't have sent Nangong Xiao and a group of people to Liaodong, wouldn't that make the father and son reunite together?

"The son did not dare to deceive his mother." Nangong Xiao seemed to be cheering up the Huang family, shook her hand vigorously, and stood up: "You can rest assured, it's not the first time that a person as big as my son will go far away, and there are important things to go out this time Liaodong is said to be extremely desolate, poor mountains and bad waters, but we got the news that it is very likely to be a fertile land that has not yet been discovered, and we also have a purpose for going there this time." ”

Huang Shi was surprised enough today, but he calmed down at this time, and he didn't ask them what they wanted to do there, these things between men generally don't tell women: "Alas, since you have already calculated, I can't say anything, you must take care of yourself, no, I don't worry about these people, what if I don't take care of you?" I'll have to choose a few people for you, and you must remember to write to your mother when you get there. ”

Nangong Xiao frowned slightly, wanting to refuse, but he also understood that this was already the biggest concession of the Huang family, so he had to agree, and it was a big deal to throw it to his mother-in-law and Dongli after being sent to dispose of it: "Mother don't worry, son understands." Then he remembered that he should remind his mother to deal with the impending disaster: "By the way, if you can, it is better not to alarm anyone to buy as much grain as possible, and hide it in a cellar or something, preferably in a secret place where no one will be discovered, I think it may not be long before the world will be in chaos, and then the supply of food may be in short supply." ”

The Huang family was naturally very attentive to her son's words, and nodded again and again, Nangong Xiao instructed her to take care of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion when the men left, it was best not to get involved in anything, close the door and live by yourself, no matter how turbulent it was outside, don't be swept away.

"Now that the family is in charge of major matters except your grandmother, Nangong Fan, where can I intervene?" The Huang family was extremely angry about this, and the old lady didn't care, after all, she was the highest ranking person in the family, but what was Nangong Fan? It's just a concubine, who used to be quite stable, but now he is becoming more and more crazy, acting recklessly, and actually asked him to help manage the Zhenbei Hou Mansion? Why? She, a dignified person from the Houfu of Zhenbei, is not dead yet, where is it the turn of a concubine who has already separated from her family to point fingers? ”

Nangong Xiao heard that it was actually Nangong Fan who was in charge of the family's major affairs, and he frowned slightly, if it was placed in the past, Nangong Fan's housekeeper would be very relieved, although this person has no big ability, but he is better than being cautious, cautious, every trivial matter will be carefully considered before making a decision, although it is difficult to get a lot of benefits in this way, but it is better to be stable, and generally will not suffer any big losses.

But now Nangong Fan gives him a very strange feeling, let him take care of the house, there will be no accidents? Especially since he has been very close to the prince's faction recently, but his father knows all these things, since he still asked the eldest brother to take care of these things, he must have planned it a long time ago, so he kept his mouth shut and didn't say anything. To be continued.
