Empress Meng didn't let Sheng Weiqiao leave until the palace was about to close. She teased Sheng Weiqiao before they parted, "Oh. I almost forget that Mizhen is actually my nephew. Since you are going to marry him, you are actually my future niece-in-law. How dare you still call me Qinglang. You are not loveable at all. Be quick! Call me aunt!"
Sheng Weiqiao smiled, "No way! You are just two months older than me and Mizhen is even older than you. Don't you think it's inappropriate for us to call such a beauty aunt?"
Empress Meng said, "That's okay. I'm just sixteen years old. Being old is a matter long after but being your senior is now. Be quick!"
"Nope." Sheng Weiqiao grinned and said, "After all, I will gain nothing from you now even if I call you aunt."
"Look how clever you are!" Empress Meng feigned anger, "I'll ask someone to sew a pouch decorated with gold and jade, making it full of stones. And it's just what I will
Gongsun Xi was in great surprise. He clenched his fists unconsciously but calmed down quickly, “Your Grace, I really don’t know what you meant. And I never went to the palace where the cousin of Deposed Empress Wen lived.”Empress Meng raised her brows and said with a cold smile, “Do you think I’m lying to you? Although I am just a puppet of Meng Family, I play an important role in their plan which is connected with their future. His Majesty pampers the Shu Sisters. Under this difficult situation, my aunt tried everything to prevail upon His Majesty to allow me to be the owner of Wangchun Palace. If something bad happens to me, even with all the nieces at home, His Majesty would not set any of them as the new empress. So Meng Family will never tell important information and will never care about my thought. But the bodyguards in Wangchun Palace pay much attention to that.”Empress Meng stretched out her arm and pointed at the gate, “The commander of
Empress Meng had convinced Gongsun Xi, but Gongsun Xi failed to persuade Rong Shuihe to agree with Emrpess Meng’s plan.With the chance to have a rest, Gongsun Xi went to meet Rong Shuihe in Prince Mizhen Mansion. It was closed to the New Year, many shops had been closed. The owner of those shops wanted to go back home early. But the atmosphere in Prince Mizhen Mansion was very hot. Workers walked through the mansion and worked hard to prepare for the coming wedding in March next year. As Rong Shuihe said, the mansion should be built by the taste of Princess Mizhen. So workers built like that exactly. The garden seemed to be moved from Sheng’s mansion. But limited by the high land prince in Chang’an and the rule, the size of the garden was not as large as the one in Sheng’s mansion. So Rong Shuihe told workers that they should build some places where Sheng Weiqiao loved to stay with full heart, making those places similar to the ones in Sheng’s ma
For Rong Qingzui’s poor situation, someone showed mercy and someone just laughed at him.Those who showed mercy thought that Gaomi King Family and Zhao Family were so cruel. He didn’t get a good treat in Gaomi King Family before, and now he had to leave Zhao Family when it was closed to New Year. Besides, he also got serious injuries. It was not what reltives were supposed to be.Those who laughed at him thought there would be a hidden truth. As the legitimate son of the Gaomi King Family, Rong Qingzui couldn’t live in Gaomi King Mansion. The time when he was sent to Zhao Family was just the time when Rong Shuihe died. Besides, Princess Gaomi pampered Rong Shuihe but showed indifference to Rong Qingzui. What did Rong Qingzui do?As for Zhao Family, everyone knew that Rong Qingzui abandoned Zhao Taozhuang.If their sisters had met such a bad boy, they would have beaten that boy to death. Zhao Family was so merciful that they
Sheng Weiqiao raised her eyebrows when she heard the words. Before she spoke, Sheng Weirao eagerly spoke to defend Sheng Weiqiao, "What do you mean that my sister snatched Princess Mizhen’s love? It's obvious that my third sister first met the Prince and fell in love with him. As for Third Miss Zhao, that is a misunderstanding caused by Princess Gaomi who doesn't know the matter between Prince Mizhen and my third sister! Gaomi King, Princess Gaomi and Prince Mizhen have personally visited the Sheng Mansion and explained it to our elders! Don't venomously slander my sister's reputation."Luo Wanhua glanced at Sheng Weiqiao with a sneer and said, "Oh, it turned out that the Prince Mizhen and the Princess Kangzhao fell in love with each other when they were brother and sister. No wonder that Sister Taoxuan can't get close to the Prince Mizhen!""It has nothing to do with you to question about my relationship with Prince Mizhen." Sheng Weiqiao winked at
Sheng Weiqiao thought there might be something important and quickly sat up straight. She was a little annoyed that she got up so late. Had she missed something important?Madam Feng's sister said, "Madame Nan said that their in-law Wu Ying will come to Chang’an in early spring with his families. Miss Xu, who married into Wu Family last year, will also come back to Chang'an with them. Wu Ying's dead mother is from the south. Although he has been an official in the north for many years, his taste is always southern taste. But the cooks of Ningwei Marquis Mansion are specialized in northern dishes. They can serve southern dishes, but it's not typical enough. Madam Nan heard that we have many cooks, so she wants to lend two cooks to serve her in-laws."There were indeed many southern cooks in Sheng Mansion now. When Rong Shuihe took the exam in Chang’an, they had already sent two cooks to Chang’an. Later, Senior Master Sheng came and brought three cooks
Since Gongsun Xi had asked to come back to Rong Shuihe, Gongsun Yingdun and others stopped discussing whether he had betrayed Rong Shuihe.People like Xu Lianshan thought Gongsun Xi would not betray Rong Shuihe unless he lost his mind because Rong Shuihe could offer him better treatment. However, it was not reassuring as he had worked in Wangchun Palace for more than half a year and refused to leave many times despite Rong Shuihe's requests.After his return, Gongsun Yingdun had asked him in a roundabout way privately about the reason why he had stayed in Wangchun Palace for so long, even at the expense of going against Rong Shuihe.Gongsun Xi just answered coldly, "You can ask the chief about that.""If I can get the answer from Little Uncle, why do I come to ask you?" Said Gongsun Yingdun. He did not get on well with Gongsun Xi before. However, as they both had been Rong Shuihe's subordinates for a long time, he thought their rel
At that time, the bride's family always set various obstacles in the groom's way of picking up his wife. On the one hand, it could create more fun. On the other hand, it implied how much the bride's family cherished their daughter.Rong Shuihe also had to face those obstacles.Fortunately, he had learned about those customs and made some preparations. He took a group of sturdy servants with him and even asked some of his mates he had met in the imperial exam, like Xu Baomo, to cheer for him.Then, starting from the closed gate, Rong Shuihe came to Sheng Weiqiao's chamber with irresistible force by bribing blockers with money and silk, saying some fine-sounding words, or asking his servants to confront those people together.Madam Feng's sister and some guests who loved to join in the fun watched this in the shadow. Someone said jokingly, "Madam Feng, it's so easy for the groom to break through those obstacles set by you! How can yo
Despite not reading Xu Baomo's work by himself, Rong Shuihe could guess that Xu Baomo must have played a trick in that, for people in Sheng Weiqiao's bedroom burst into laughter and began to tease the bride upon its delivery.He feigned annoyance, "Brother, what did you write? I won't let you slide if my wife gets mad at me!""No worries, Your Highness!" Xu Baomo patted Rong Shuihe’s shoulder, wearing a mischievous smile, "I won't do anything that can spoil your wedding! It's your big day, after all. I do remember for what I was invited at the beginning, and I only do things in your favor!"The maid came out again as they exchanged words, and she seemed to be stifling her laughter as she rested her eyes on Xu Baomo. She cleared her throat with the blush on her face, "Her Highness and her friends aren't satisfied with the poem just now. Her Highness won't finish her dressing before you provide a more serious one!"Xu Baomo couldn't
Shu Zhaoyi lost her soul and returned to the Xuanjing Emperor placed outside the bedchamber, and was about to go in to see how the Xuanjing Emperor slept ... After she came back with the Xuanjing Emperor, because she was anxious to go to interrogate Meng Guiyu alone, she excused herself to drink wine to drown her sorrows, and left the Xuanjing Emperor after she got him drunk.This moment back can not help but go in to see, who knows just to the door to see the two chamberlains eyes and nose guarding.Seeing Zhaoyi come over, their faces all changed, and they bowed tremblingly, saying, "Long live the Empress!""There are people inside?" Shu Zhaoyi asked with a raised eyebrow when she saw that despite their respectful attitude, they never had the intention to give way.The two chamberlains looked at each other, with trepidation in their eyes, knowing that the Shu sisters were in great favor and neither were good-tempered.Especially at this moment, the ne
Shu Zhaoyi's expression was harsh, but Meng Guiyu's face was calm, and he said in a deep voice, "Back to Lady Zhaoyi, I really didn't know about Your Highness's suffering at all!"He glanced at Shu Guifei's remains on the door panel not far away, "As for why His Majesty and Lady Zhaoyi found that Lady Guifei was missing, they issued an imperial edict for the forbidden army to search everywhere, and in the end, it was me who sent Lady Guifei to His Majesty as well as to Lady Zhaoyi.... Ma'am, I reported up before that Lady Guifei wasn't personally found by me, but was reported up after his men found it. personally found, but rather after my men found it and reported it up, I went to see it!""After all, I have been favored by the two empresses and have joined the forbidden army as the Grand Commander of the forbidden army. When the forbidden army discovers a clue, it is natural to report it to me first, and then I will convey it to His Majesty and you, Your Highness!"
"Your Highness!" Meng Gui Yu's expression was somber, his eyes were also red, stepped forward and cupped his fists and said, "After I learned that Your Highness and her attendants had disappeared, I couldn't believe that Your Highness had been in an accident! However, the Queen Consort lived in the Qiongxue Palace and the left side of the inch by inch search down, the Committee did not see any silhouettes, can only be dispersed towards the distance. At this time to listen to the water division side of the report, said the spring wave lake floated up ... floated up a number of people, all for the palace attire, the leader of the even more expensive clothes extraordinary, I ... ministers eleven million hope that it is a mistake!""But the minister to the lake, personally saw this body pomegranate red dress shirt ... I remember, two days ago also see your concubine through ...""This must be which bitchy servant girl, stole this palace sister's robe!!!" Shu Zhao Yi covered
The sky was overcast as if it were night before the rain poured down.In the back room of the assassin's residence, the doors and windows were closed, and it was too dim to see the outlines of things.Yi Liu dressed in Xuan Shirt strong clothing, full head of green silk also with the same color of the handkerchief tightly wrapped up, foot soft sole light boots, quietly stepped over the scarlet ground tangled branches of lotus pattern unicorn play beads rug.The short sword in his hand was coated in black paint, dark and heavy that would not emit any reflections, best suited for the immediate environment.She narrowed her eyes slightly so as not to let the luster between the flow of her bright eyes be detected by her opponent.The thunder outside the house had been raging for a long time, and her confrontation with her opponent had lasted even longer.She's in no hurry.In addition to the fact that this was the Assassin's Palace, the home bas
Rong Sleeping Crane was busy smiling and greeted her, "Auntie! I disturbed you last night, are you resting well now?"Xuan Yu Feng first looked him up and down, saw his gray head and face, and his clothes were dirty, then said in a pleasant manner, "I am an idle person anyway, it is nothing to make a mess once in a while, but it is you ... how did you get this? How to make such a mess? I just saw with you a piece of over the guards, are good, thought you also safe and sound it!"Let's just say that he, "Auntie knows that this child of yours is both literate and skilled in martial arts. But the so-called not in his position does not seek his own politics, you now is not to the district Gongsun clan to sell their lives of the Wuyi camp leader, but the king of the big Mu County, is the husband of Qiao Er, lemonade father of the king! If it is because of the first to fight, there are any shortcomings, you call Qiao'er mother and son in the future how to do?""What's mo
"..." Rong Sleeping Crane froze and said, "Good girl, although Meng Boqin is gone, the Northern Border may not be peaceful ah! And you also know that I secretly came from the Western Border this time, so after settling your mother and son, I will talk to uncle for a few more days, and also have to hurry to return to the Western Border."Sheng Weiqiao said, "You have urgent matters, you go to the western border first! I'll go over slowly with lemonade, at most it's just a few more days of traveling."She frowned slightly, ''Before I left from the Western Frontier in such a hurry, the things I lost down were just that, Geun Li, Ju Li those people, and the twelve niang and whatnot ... I'm telling you, if it wasn't for the fact that you were in the way of Meng Boqin before, and you said that it was safest to take the sea route to leave, I would have wanted to go to the Western Frontier to witness it no matter what. I'd like to go to the western border to see them before I fe
"Think of the good in things!" The plan to use Zhao Shi as a front failed, Rong Yuhe could only go alone to face his wife's doubts, he was on his way to comfort himself, "I can't say that my daughter is worried and scared alone in the camp, and she is satisfied to see that I am well past it. Why is it that things are happening differently from what she told me before, and she's not in the mood to get to the bottom of it, so I'll be able to get by with a few perfunctory sentences?"With that thought he looked down at his neat as new robes, pondered for a moment, and decisively halted his mount!The left and right guards were instantly aghast, taking off the bow hanging on the saddle and nocking arrows from the arrow pot at their waist while asking in a low voice, "County King?""... "Rong Sleeping Crane looked at them as if they were enemies, the corner of his mouth twitched, and said, "It's nothing. Well, you guys stay here, lone go to the side forest for a bit!"
The green-clothed boy heard, a face of "difficult to say" expression, once again look at Zhao Shi, mouth vaguely said, "I do not know how to say ... anyway... several stewards feel very difficult to make a judgment. ...Several stewards feel that it's very tricky and can't make a judgment, so I can only ask the County King to personally decide!"Seeing this situation, Zhao Shi raised an eyebrow and said to Rong Sleeping Crane, "I'm about to go out to see how things are going underneath, you guys talk over here!"Just take the old maid and go.The room is left with Rong Sleeping Crane and the boy, that boy immediately swept away the calm in front of Zhao Shi's master and servant, said in a tone of excitement mixed with inexplicable excitement, "County King! To tell you the truth, you may not believe it: brother Ah Xi, he ... actually slept with the Empress!!!"Yung Sleeping Crane, who has taken a hundred and twenty-thousand percent care and is ready to receive
Zhao Shi sniffed, froze for a good while, before asking with doubts, "You ... you send all the horses of your Western Frontier elite cavalry over? Then what about the direct line that you single-handedly trained?"Not waiting for Rong Sleeping Crane to answer, he shook his head again, "Not right! You kid has always been treacherous, not taking advantage of others would be good, how could you do something so self-sacrificing?!"Mind electric turn, suddenly eyes bright, breathing are a little short of breath, eagerly asked, "I remember you promised Deng Chen Liyu to help him raise his son and grandson ...?""I'm not as old as his grandson, what do you mean by helping him raise his son and grandson?" Rong Sleeping Crane cried and laughed, "It's just a promise to shelter a few of his heirs."Zhao suitable toward him leaned his body, attentive to ask, "The previous dynasty has the emperor Na Ru Ru princess as a consort, when Ru Ru accompanied by 10,000 horses, tha
