Rong Shuihe shook his head and said, "The Jishan Bandit hasn't completely surrendered to us. We still need Master Wu. If we kill her now, we will offer the Meng Family an opportunity to sow discord, won't we? Though my teacher had a deep relationship with the Jishan Bandit, he didn't tell me much about that. Thus, I'm not sure how deep their relationship was. I can only try to sound them out in developing a relationship with them. Besides, it's not bad for Master Wu to have a conscience."
He said slightly, "We can take advantage of her conscience to cheat her. It's easier to cope with a person of high principles."
Rong Shuihe was still defensive about the Jishan Bandit due to his suspicion of Huan Guanlan. Even though Master Wu was a woman and would abdicate after the surrender, he could not rest assured completely. Therefore, he was not angry with Master Wu for leaving abruptly. He thought for a moment and said to Gongsun Xi, "You go and tell her th
After the nominal welcome banquet, which was a banquet for Master Wu's selection of her husband in nature, Rong Shuihe and his people continued on their journey after a short stay in the town. "Meng Jiaqian has drawn over Ni Jidao and the other two people to his side." Gongsun Xi said.When they had a rest after walking for two days, Gongsun Xi found Rong Shuihe, who was making an inspection tour in the procession. Gongsun Xi said to him in a low voice, "The scout reports that Meng Jiaqian has decided the marriages of three of his sisters. Ni Jidao, Dai Gulian, and Lou Peng can have a daughter of the Meng Family respectively to be their daughter-in-law or granddaughter-in-law."Hearing the news, Rong Shuihe laughed, "General Meng does inherit his family tradition! The Meng Family depended on the Empress Dowager to rise. Though they have been powerful at the imperial court, they don't get rid of the bad habit of using girls to break a path. Fortunatel
Meng Jiaqian suddenly came back to earth. Sitting in the wheelchair, he apologized with arched hands, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. You’re about the same age as my sister, and you have similar temperaments. So, when I see you, I feel as if I saw my sister. Please forgive my rudeness!"Hearing that, Sheng Weiqiao glanced at Meng Jiaqian curiously and said, "General Meng, do you mean Miss Shuangxiao? She is very well in Chang'an. You don't have to worry about her."Meng Jiaqian nodded gracefully and said, "Your Highness, thank you for letting me know that! Shuangxiao is my younger sister. She used to be the closest to me when we were in Beijiang. But we haven't seen each other for many years now. So, I often look at those girls about her age so as to try to figure out what she looks like now."Sheng Weiqiao and Meng Shuangxiao did share somewhat similar temperaments because they were pampered by their families and brought up in easy circumsta
Meng Jiaqian and his people managed to give away the knotty matter of disaster relief. Though they failed to make Rong Shuihe take this responsibility, his wife Sheng Weiqiao, the owner of a large dowry, undertook it. A husband and his wife were an integral whole. Thus, if Sheng Weiqiao failed to handle this matter properly, they could also get Rong Shuihe implicated or even blame him for not regulating his wife well.Meng Jiaqian had achieved their purpose. Besides, he had scruples about Rong Shuihe's power and needed to rest because of his severe injury. Therefore, he soon asked to leave with the excuse that he could not hold his drink. Then, since Meng Jiaqian had left, Ni Jidao and others did not dare to stay there. Then, they also asked to leave.Finally, the welcome banquet ended hastily. Rong Shuihe and his people continued on their way. Madam Feng's sister invited Sheng Weiqiao and Master Wu to take the carriage together.After g
"It is not a good excuse. Ultimately, you're unsophisticated and have a narrow outlook. You want to get those victims settled because you want to help Mizhen out." Said Madam Feng's sister.She took a sip of her tea and continued with a half-smile, "But have you ever thought about one thing? You can solve this matter in this way now. But if Meng Jiaqian's people cause more natural or man-made disasters in the future, can you force those prestigious people in Xijiang to donate money by right of your identity as a Princess every time? Even though those families want to fawn on you, they can't bear that later if things go on like this. What can you do at that time? Do you plan to rely on yourself? You must have realized that those people want to make you and Mizhen broke by this means, right?"Sheng Weiqiao said, "I know that. You mean that if we take this opportunity to do some business, we can win over those prestigious people who can donate money. Be
Sheng Weiqiao freshened up and got to know that Rong Shuihe was dealing with official affairs in the antechamber. Then, she went to her aunt's yard to discuss with her about sending invitations to those prestigious people. Madam Feng's sister said, "We're new here. How can we know who we should invite? We'd better consult Master Wu."However, the maid they dispatched failed to find Master Wu. After a while, she returned and reported, "Master Wu and her subordinates are not there. Others say they go out of the city to welcome the counselor."Hearing that, Madam Feng's sister raised her eyebrows and said, "It seems that the counselor of the Jishan Bandit has the last word. Otherwise, why does Master Wu go to welcome him personally?"Sheng Weiqiao said, "The counselor is of the same generation as Master Wu’s father. It was probably thanks to his support that Master Wu, as a woman, managed to succeed to her father's post. Thus, it's natural
Hearing the news, Sheng Weiqiao did not think much about it as she and her aunt, though not talking about everything with Master Wu, had been well acquainted with her after learning horse riding from her these days.Besides, the counselor was Master Wu's senior. As for why Master Wu took him to meet Sheng Weiqiao, Madam Feng's sister guessed, "Probably she wants you to put in a good word for him in front of Mizhen? It's alright that Master Wu, as a woman, can't become an officer after they pay allegiance to the court. However, her counselor can enter the official career. Perhaps Master Wu worries that his talents will be buried in light of what the people from the Daimao Island have suffered."Sheng Weiqiao smiled, "Master Wu is so concerned that she gets muddled. Mizhen has just been here. He is in desperate need of hands. If that counselor is a competent and well-trained man with sincerity, Mizhen will put him in an important position, won't he?"
Rong Shuihe said, "I have to ask our grandfather and those people in Beijiang for Ruru's detour route in those years. Then, I can order scouts to keep a close watch on those roads day and night in case of accidents."Sheng Weiqiao said, "But Xijiang is far from Beijiang and Chang'an. It will even take a long time for a carrier pigeon to go there and back. That'll be too slow. What if some accidents happen halfway?"Rong Shuihe rubbed Sheng Weiqiao's head with a smile and said gently, "Sweetie, the journey from Beijiang to Xijiang is quite long and has a wide range. We are short of hands, and we haven't disposed of Meng Jiaqian and his people. Thus, we must find out in advance where they will pass because we cannot send all our people to find Ruru like finding a needle in a haystack only based on such suspicion. Otherwise, whether or not Ruru will come? Meng Jiaqian and his people will be overjoyed if we do that, won't they?"Hearing that
Sheng Weijiao rushed to the banquet hall, I really see the inside of the newly changed surface not to mention, and even the dishes and rice vessels have been replaced, from the original bias in the grand and noble color gilt sweet white glaze painted summer lotus official kiln porcelain, changed into a more in line with the girl's family preferences of the pink and green glaze depicting gold twining peach blossom full set of porcelain.Then look at the main seat on the head, Xuan Yu Feng's is Ni Yan Ying kissed at the side of the pull, the girl's eyebrows lowered, very end of the appearance, not to do Xuan Yu Feng's daughter, and Sheng Wei Qiao indirectly climbed into the relationship with the flow of what complacency or crazy color to, this is not humble and not overbearing appearance, more and more people want to look high at her.Sheng Weiqiao look at her, the first thing he noticed is that her temples and hair more than a gold and silver "golden bee honey" hairpin, 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
