Chapter 282: The Battle of Dragon Slope
Now that Xu Ziyao got into the carriage, Chu Yan would never take the carriage again.
It happened that Xu Huan also came out of the house from afar, so Chu Yan simply called Xu Huan to go back to the palace together.
The husband and wife have the same purpose, they both want to get something useful from the mouth of the two brothers and sisters.
The moment the curtain was lowered and the carriage started slowly, Xu Ziyao got up directly, knelt in front of Shen Lingxi, and said in a low voice: "Please also ask the crown princess to save my aunt." ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Lingxi's eyes.
Between the old lady of Zhenguo and the Cao family, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not harmonious, which is really a family matter of the Zhenguo Mansion.
Even though Shen Lingxi is now the crown princess, there is absolutely no reason to meddle in the family affairs of the Guogong Mansion.
Not to mention......
She has always been only concerned with the affairs of the dead.
The affairs between living people are really tricky and troublesome, and she doesn't want to take care of it, let alone bother to take care of it.
"You get up first."
Shen Lingxi stretched out his hand to help her up, let her sit down opposite, and said slowly: "If it is a matter between your grandmother and mother, it is really a family matter of your family, if you don't know what to do, if you want to talk to me about it, I can help you with the details, as for the side, I am really inconvenient to interfere." ”
Xu Ziyao knew that she and Shen Lingxi had only had a few encounters, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that they met in Pingshui.
Seeing that Shen Lingxi did not categorically refuse, Xu Ziyao was already very grateful on her face.
"I know that Niangniang will not interfere in the family affairs of the government......" she paused, her heroic eyes with a little determination, "but if this is the case...... Isn't it just a family affair? ”
"Oh?" Shen Lingxi's eyes flashed slightly, and he made a surprised look on his face, "How do you say this?" ”
Xu Ziyao seemed to be thinking about where to start, and after a few breaths, Fang said slowly: "Since I was a child, my grandfather took my father and brother to lead troops to fight outside all the year round, and there were only grandmothers, aunts and second uncles at home, guarding the capital. ”
"When A-Niang married her father, it was her grandmother who came to ask for marriage on behalf of her father, although the Suzhou Cao family was not a very prominent family, but it also fought with Taizu, but the people were not prosperous, and finally ended up full of loyalty. The Cao family is thin, so naturally there is less reliance, but only the soldiers left by the ancestor are still loyal. ”
"Since A-Niang insisted on marrying for her father, her grandmother was naturally very kind to A-Niang. Soon after getting married, A-Niang became pregnant with her brother, and her grandmother was even more unsuitable for A-Niang. Since I was a child, I have never seen my grandmother and my grandmother blush, until I ...... The second uncle died. ”
"My father and second uncle are twin sons of the same mother, but the second uncle was born with a weak disease, he couldn't ride a horse, he couldn't lift a gun, so he could only help his grandmother and A-Niang take care of the Guogong Mansion in the capital."
"The second uncle first married his aunt Ji, and I heard that the two had been in love for a while. It's just that later, I don't know what kind of disagreement happened between the two, Aunt Ji was determined to reconcile with the second uncle, the second uncle refused, and the grandmother also liked Aunt Ji very much, and wanted to reconcile from it, or the ancestor of the Shen family, persuaded a few words in front of the grandmother, and the grandmother came forward to let the second uncle and Aunt Ji reconcile. ”
When Shen Lingxi heard this, he also remembered that when the grandmother of the Shen family died, in the mourning hall, the grandmother sighed to a woman who came to mourn: "Hey, the little lady Ji is also here, she is a good girl, when she wanted to reconcile with the boy from the Zhenguo family, I just helped her say a few words, and even asked her to remember it until now, and rushed over......"
I think that it is the "Aunt Ji" that Xu Ziyao said.
"I heard my grandmother mention your ex-aunt, and my grandmother said that she is a loving person."
After she mentioned this, Xu Ziyao realized that the ancestor of the Shen family was Shen Lingxi's grandmother.
Xu Ziyao nodded, "Listening to my mother, Aunt Ji is also a cheerful person." ”
She paused, and then continued: "Not long after the second uncle and Aunt Ji left, they went to Yiyang Hou's house to have a drink, and they fell in love with Yiyang Hou's sister. ”
"Grandmother was originally worried about the second uncle's family affairs, so she was naturally happy to see it happen, and soon made up her mind and married the Li family of Yiyang Hou, this is my second aunt now, Li Xiaoqing."
Speaking of this, Xu Ziyao's eyes darkened slightly.
"The second aunt is a delicate jade person, very good at coaxing the old ancestor to be happy, and A-Niang is busy with things in the house all day long, and the second aunt accompanies her grandmother, A-Niang naturally stays in front of her grandmother less. However, despite this, the grandmother and A-Niang are still very close. ”
"Who would have thought that one day six years ago, there was some quarrel between A-Niang and the second uncle over the accounts in the house. The second uncle was angry, left a letter, and went to the border alone, saying that he wanted to find his father for a theory. Who would have thought that this trip would encounter the battle between Yunguo and Da Zhou. ”
"The Battle of Dragon Slayer?" Shen Lingxi faintly felt a little familiar.
Seeing that Shen Lingxi's eyes showed a blank look, Xu Ziyao pursed her lips, "No wonder the princess doesn't know, this battle of slaying the dragon slope, because it involves the evil art of Yunjiang, was banned by the first emperor in the army, and no one dares to mention it outside." ”
"It is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally led the troops, and the Yun Kingdom General Fu fierce battle of life and death, I heard that Fu Meng was dying, let people on the battlefield, cast a blessing technique, so that the dying soldiers stood up again, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was seriously injured and almost died here."
When Shen Lingxi heard this, he immediately remembered that at the beginning, he had heard people talk about it in the medicine palace, and he used the combination of "Zhu Youshu" and "Drunken Dream" to almost kill the enemy general, and turned defeat into victory.
Fu Meng is one of the most trusted generals of the Emperor, he is murderous and brutal, and his behavior has always been despised by the people of their medicine palace.
Shen Lingxi was still curious at that time, how could the "drunken dream" run from the medicine palace to the hands of Fu Meng.
Now that I think about it, it is naturally the order of the great priest, and Urda is a ghost.
It's just that she never knew that the person who almost "turned defeat into victory" was Chu Yan, who was only fourteen years old.
Thinking that Chu Yan almost died under the fierce knife, Shen Lingxi's heart slammed hard.
"And then?" She couldn't help but ask.
Xu Ziyao thought that she was asking her second uncle, so she continued: "I heard that the second uncle thought that his father was with His Royal Highness, so he went to Kill Dragon Slope and was ...... The fierce man was caught. He and his father are twins, they look very similar, and Fu Meng treats him as his father and kills him in front of the battle. ”
When the bad news came back to the capital, my grandmother was heartbroken, and since then, my grandmother has attributed the death of her second uncle to A-Niang. In the past six years, my grandmother ignored my mother, and in order to make up for the second aunt, she not only handed over all the housekeeping power to the second aunt, but also only let the second aunt serve in front of her. Daddy is not allowed to share a room with his mother. ”
"This time, she also dragged her sick body and took her mother back to her hometown in Suzhou, removed her mother's name from the family tree, and now she is still forcing her father to reconcile with her mother ...... death"
Shen Lingxi lowered his eyes when he heard what she said.
"In the final analysis, this matter is still a family matter of your mansion......"
Xu Ziyao shook her head and looked at her earnestly, "I always feel that it is no coincidence that the second uncle appeared in the Dragon Cutting Slope back then. Whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is accompanied by his father or not, just look at the handsome flag. Niangniang, I know that you can pass through ghosts and gods, can you summon the soul of the second uncle and ask him, why did he go to kill Longpo and send him to death? ”
