Chapter 426: Asking for the Princess

When Mrs. Bao saw Yang Mu, she came over with a small crutch, pointed to a big bag on her head, and asked, "When will I be able to join the army!" ”

If she is not in front of Yang Mu for a day, she will be unlucky for a day.

Yang Mu returned home too late in the past few days, and she didn't seize the opportunity to ask, so she could only come to the palace in person.

Yang Mu was relieved and said, "Now there is still one person missing from the main book, is the eldest lady happy?" ”

Mrs. Bao nodded like pounding garlic, at her age, there was nothing to do in the army except to write and draw and organize files.

Fortunately, her writing is okay, and she should be able to help Mu Yatou.

So Yang Mu wrote the articles of the main book to the Ministry of War in front of Mrs. Bao, and ordered someone to send the articles to the Ministry of War, and after the Ministry of War stamped and sealed, Mrs. Bao could join the army.

Yang Mu personally sent Mrs. Bao to go out, and Mrs. Bao got the letter and happily took the carriage away.

Watching Mrs. Bao's carriage leave, Yang Mu stood at the gate of the palace, feeling a little apologetic.

When Mrs. Bao was in Zhupo Village, she treated her well and helped her take care of Yang Shishi.

Now I have to deal with other people's old masters, but I can't talk to others.

I don't know what Mrs. Bao will do after she knows about it.

Is it righteousness to kill relatives? Or will they stand on the side of the Empress Dowager and be their enemy?

After Yang Mu got off duty, she changed her clothes and left the palace, Lin Xiao sent someone to spread the word that she would come back late today, so she wouldn't come to pick her up on duty.

So Yang Mu ate something on the way and rode back home.

As soon as he returned to Chengqi Courtyard, Daishan came over and said, "Princess, the family temple has spread the word that the second lady wants to see you." ”

Yang Mu raised his eyebrows, since the Cao family's mother and daughter confessed that the eldest Sun Ning was born prematurely because of Meng's calculations, after Lin Mao returned to the house to discuss with the Ma family, he sent the Meng family to the family temple, and none of the subordinates were allowed to be taken away.

It is said that it is a substitute practice, but everyone knows that the Meng family is used to being pampered, and they have to work in the family temple, so life must be very difficult.

Dai Shan said: "The nun of the family temple said that Meng fell ill on the second day of going to the family temple, and the two days were not very good. ”

Yang Mu sighed, stood up, walked out of the backyard of the palace, and came to the family temple on the opposite street.

The nuns of the family temple led Yang Mu to a separate small courtyard, and there were only two rooms in the courtyard, one was a messy firewood room, and the other was for Meng's family.

The room was very simple, Meng Shi was covered with a quilt that exuded moisture, his face was sallow and lying on the bed, and when he saw Yang Mu coming in, his eyes lit up.

Yang Mu didn't prepare to stay longer, so he didn't sit down, but stopped two steps away from Meng Shi and asked lightly, "What are you looking for me?" ”

She is not familiar with Meng, and she is not ready to be familiar.

Meng Shi coughed suddenly, and after a while, he relieved himself and said weakly: "This palace seems to be still in the hands of the concubine, but who doesn't know that the princess is already the head of the palace?" I have something, and if I don't ask you, who else can I ask? ”

Yang Mu did not deny this fact, but just looked at Meng Shi indifferently and listened to her following.

Meng Shi said slowly: "I heard that the princess was looking for red phosphorus during this time? ”

Yang Mu's eyes lit up and asked, "Do you have red phosphorus in your hands?" ”

Meng Shi nodded slowly and said, "If the princess promises me one thing, I will offer the red phosphorus with both hands." ”

Yang Mu reminded: "Do you know how much red phosphorus I want? ”

Meng Shi chuckled and said: "It's normal for the princess to not know, after all, the Meng family is a small family and is not concerned. ”

She took out a piece of paper from the inside of her clothes and said, "This is a mine of my Meng family, this mountain produces yellow phosphorus, and yellow phosphorus is heated into red phosphorus." When the time comes, how much red phosphorus does the princess want? ”

Yang Mu smiled, red phosphorus is a necessary ingredient for black powder, she has never found a large amount of red phosphorus, and she has not been able to refine black powder in large quantities.

If you can get this mine, even if the whole world is the enemy of Dashun, the people of Dashun don't have to worry about the war.

Meng Shi asked weakly: "Is the princess still satisfied?" ”

Yang Mu nodded and said, "Tell me about your conditions." ”

Meng's eyes lit up, and he said, "I only ask the princess to do one thing, take care of my two sons." ”

Yang Mu didn't expect that Meng Shi would be stunned for a moment and asked, "Why did the second aunt say this?" ”

Meng Shi smiled bitterly: "The concubine is old, and she doesn't like to take care of things anymore." The second master is a thoughtful person, and he cares more about himself than a child. Princess Shizi, without the Cao family, Lin Shan is not the opponent of your husband and wife, and this palace will be your world sooner or later. ”

Yang Mu said: "The second young master is a good student, and the fourth young master is also talented and intelligent, why does the second aunt care about their future?" ”

Meng said: "Why don't you know how to pretend to understand? The second master can't win! All I want is for my two children to live safely! ”

Yang Mu tilted his head slightly, Lin Fan has recently gotten close to the regent, presumably because he wants to do a dragon skill.

And he wanted to get the merit of the dragon, so he chose the regent, which was actually contrary to the general position of the Dingwang Mansion.

Lin Mao is the brother-in-law of the Empress Dowager and Li You's aunt and grandfather, and Lin Xiao is Li You's cousin-in-law.

Yang Mu looked at Meng's eyes and asked, "How does the second aunt know that the second uncle can't win?" Now half of the ministers in the DPRK and China are supporting Li Yi's accession to the throne. ”

Meng Shi smiled bitterly, but did not speak, but asked, "Can the princess agree?" When the second room topple up, save the lives of my two children? ”

Seeing that she was reluctant to answer, Yang Mu could only nod slightly and said, "If the two of them don't participate, I can do my best to save it." ”

Meng said: "Don't worry, Concubine Shizi, Brother Yong'er is just dedicated to studying and has never been involved in his father's affairs. And Brother Qi is only eight years old, and he doesn't understand anything. ”

Yang Mu nodded again, indicating that he could promise Meng.

Meng Shi put the piece of paper on the bed and said, "Then this yellow phosphorus mine belongs to the princess." ”

……

Coming out of the family temple, Yang Mu raised his eyes and looked at the already dark sky.

Meng was protecting his children before he died, what about Cao? Before he died, he didn't even mention the names of Lin Shan and Lin Qiuchen.

Correspondingly, neither Lin Shan nor Lin Qiuchen thought about collecting the corpses of the Cao family, and they were stunned to let the bodies of their mother and grandmother be taken away by Steward Teng, eaten clean by crows, and turned into dry bones!

What kind of mother is it, what kind of children are educated.

Although Meng's methods are ruthless, he is much better at educating his children than people like Cao.

At the very least, since the Meng family came to the family temple, Lin Yong and Lin Qi have come to visit many times, and they almost asked the imperial doctor for medicine.

It's just that Meng Shi knows that he can't get out of the family temple in this life, and he has no heart, so he can't afford to get sick, and the medicine stone has no soul.

Yang Mu slowly walked back to Dingwang's Mansion, surprised in his heart, how did the Meng family know that her husband would lose to Lin Mao?

It can't be a rebirth, right?

Looking at the way Meng Shi talks and does things on weekdays, it doesn't look like it!

The overall situation of the DPRK and China, even many courtiers may not be able to understand it, how does Meng, a woman in the back house, understand?

What Yang Mu didn't know was that the Meng family was not optimistic about her husband, but the regent who was not optimistic about her husband.

At that time, the regent, as the eldest son of the emperor, could not fight the second prince, and then missed the throne.

After so many years, although the regent is full-fledged, he is a man who listens to the words of the empress and concubine.

A man in his thirties, but he only knows how to be obedient, such a person can succeed and become a ghost!
