"It is said that the eldest princess Wuyang is also trying her best to inquire about it. After all, the eldest princess has not been in Chang'an for a while. She just came back and Yandong didn't get the exact news, so Uncle Tu Shi doesn't know very well either." Sleeping Crane shook his head and said, "When Uncle Shicai told him about it just now, he speculated that the Meng family felt that if the emperor really could inherit the throne through his heir, then the heir would not be the main wife anyway, so according to the rules, could she be the queen mother, right? "
Sheng Weiqiao pondered and said: "But if the new king comes from the Gaomi Palace or the Guangling Palace, and has the support of his biological parents and brothers, he may not care about the mere identity of mother and son! Brother, didn't I just say it clearly? There are no fathers and sons in the Tian family. What's more, in name only. Where are the mother and son?"
Sheng Suihe smiled and said: "Who knows? Fortunately, we are very concerned about Uncle Tu Shicuo. If he gets the news later, he will probably try to tell us. We will know by then - whether the Meng family is right or wrong. The matter has nothing to do with us."
Sheng Weiqiao didn't even think about it. He took a sip of tea and said, "He knows the situation of the Meng family, but he doesn't know what the situation is with King Gaomi?"
"What's going on with that family? Is that what happened?" Sheng Suihe smiled faintly, but there was no smile in his eyes, and said, "It is said that the King of Gaomi had many concubines. There were also a few concubine children. But maybe those people were lucky. An epidemic broke out in the palace more than ten years ago, and they all died... The only one who came alive was De, who happened to be staying in the palace for a while by Princess Mo at that time. Princess Ping. For example, King Gaomi of the Ming Dynasty and his wife have two sons and three daughters. Except for Deping, they are all not the daughter of the princess."
"Has such a thing happened in Prince Gaomi's palace?" Sheng Weiqiao couldn't help but get excited when he heard this, and whispered, "No wonder Princess Deping has sealed her concubine even though she is a concubine - it seems that most of them have been compensated by sealing her! "
When did an epidemic cause the death of all the concubines, concubines, and concubine children, while the Gaomi Princess and her legitimate children were all fine
100%, it's not possible to see people's private affairs.
I don’t know if there was some extramarital affair, but it was nothing more than asking the King of Gaomi to give up his concubine, but he didn’t even leave any children as a concubine... These were not the blood of the King of Gaomi, but the King of Gaomi was so willing to do so
No, there is something wrong with the life experience of those children
Bu Nao Sheng Wei Qiao noticed that what Sheng Suihe said was "a few concubines gave birth to children." It can be seen that the children are not one or two. So, can one of the concubines dare to confuse the blood, but it is not allowed for all the concubines to be born from the east. The bloodline of King Gaomi, right
And that incident actually ended in the "epidemic" at first. It can be seen that even if Wang Dong of Gaomi did not deny his legs, he at least compromised - Sheng Weiqiao was wrong about Sheng Suihe's words that "there is no father and son in the heaven", and he became more and more convinced that Chang'an City was wrong. The high-ranking families are becoming more and more wary and distant.
He couldn't help but say: "I really hope that spring will come soon. After I am named on the gold list, he can go back to Nanfeng County!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the atmosphere in the room became stagnant!
Sheng Suihe still had a faint smile on his face, but for some reason, Sheng Weiqiao felt an inexplicable pressure: "Good girl, I plan to leave after my brother's exam is over?"
"... Otherwise?" Sheng Weiqiao regretted it as soon as he told the truth - had he considered whether or not the ship was on board? First, pretend to be confused, secondly, stabilize him, and thirdly, wait until he is named on the gold list, and then you can try to leave!
Now that the weather is low, who knows if there will be any trouble if the intention to leave is revealed at that time
But the conversation had already been spoken, and it seemed deliberate to take it back. Sheng Weiqiao felt that if he said that, he might be in a worse situation, so he bit the bullet and pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Brother, have I forgotten? Will he accompany me?" He came to Chang'an to take the exam! After I finish the exam, how can he continue to stay in Donglai? He has to go back to Nanfeng County to get married!"
"Is there anyone in Nanfeng County who is worthy of me?" Sheng Suihe's eyes were dim, and his eyes flickered for a while before he said with a smile, "Is there anyone, my parents got me engaged not long ago? I Have you forgotten? The reason why I came to Chang'an that time was actually to see if there was a suitable husband for me there... So why are you so anxious to go back? Marriage is a lifelong event, how can I just make do with it? You can’t help but find a satisfactory candidate, right?”
Sheng Weiqiao smiled coquettishly and said: "Brother, I also know that he himself is not very discerning. Otherwise, how could he have been tricked by Xu Baomo in the first place? With his eyesight in seeing people, he does not think that his parents are more reliable. , I think Uncle Tu Shi who just came over to care about us is a ready-made example of his father knowing people - so for that kind of thing, he feels that it is better to go back to Nanfeng County and let his parents make the decision. In Chang'an City, there is no To be honest, he always feels uneasy when his elders are around him."
"Whether Xu Caikui's incident is an accident or not, I don't take it to heart." Sheng Suihe listened quietly. When he heard the first few sentences, he was planning a rebuttal, but when he heard the last sentence, he was slightly startled. His expression became gentle and soft, and he comforted me softly, "Although we don't have any elders around now, but with him here, I will never be wronged again!"
His words obviously did not mean that Sheng Weiqiao was eager to return to Nanfeng County and was stimulated by being kicked out by Xu Caikui in public, thus losing his sense of security.
Sheng Weiqiao didn't know that he was talking softly, but his heart was already filled with murderous intent. He thought about seven or eight ways to make Xu Caikui die in an instant, and Bu Naobu quickly said, "It's her matter! He's going to Doesn't he feel that none of the nobles in Chang'an City are simple? Not only did he deal with them, but just listened to the things that were spread, it made him feel frightened! He really felt that he couldn't stay in that kind of place. I want to go east, so after my brother gets established there, he doesn’t want to stay in the east anymore.”
"Those things don't belong to their family and have little to do with us." Hearing this, Sheng Suihe was silent for a while before saying, "Actually, similar things can be found everywhere in the world. Even in Nanfeng County, there are similar houses. It's better to kill each other than to kill each other - even before that, they thought I was young and didn't need to be tainted by such nonsense, so they didn't tell me."
"Nanfeng County is a remote place compared to Chang'an." However, Sheng Weiqiao shook his head and said, "Even if there are some disputes there, they are just small fights in the final analysis, but the gossip outside Chang'an City is often A single move can affect the whole body! I see that he is the only one who offended the Queen Mother. Can you please bear the consequences for this regardless of whether Ningwei Hou Mansion is prosperous or not? Such a confinement is too frightening, and he can't bear it. of."
—So if I wonder if he is planning to stay in the East, I must calm down!
- Is he such a person who can't help things? Is it too much for him to hear the private affairs of noble people, let alone the discussion of brother-sister incest? !
He didn't know if Sheng Suihe heard her hint. After a moment of silence, he said: "Actually, they are all the same. The Bu Nao Sheng family is powerful in Nanfeng County, but we have little status in Chang'an City now. .Wait later..."
He paused briefly and continued, "When our status becomes higher in the future, I won't have to be so trembling!"
Sheng Wei Qiao said to his heart, no matter how high one's status is, one's unethical behavior can still be discussed, okay
In the previous dynasty, there was an unruly king who took advantage of his cousin and forced her to stay in the palace and registered her as a princess, just like a concubine. [Note] Later, the powerful officials used this as an excuse to kill her and made the miserable princess a sibling. My brother is the new king—Sheng Weiqiao doesn’t want to be the protagonist of that kind of allusion at all!
She forced a smile and said: "Brother, I am joking. Are we ministers? No matter how high we are, can we surpass the Queen Mother and the Empress? How can we not be cautious? Therefore, Nanfeng County is not good!"
"... If Chang'an City doesn't make me feel trembling, would I not be so anxious to return to Nanfeng County?" Sheng Suihe stared at the tea bowl in front of the two of them for a while, then suddenly raised his head and asked.
"It's not entirely true!" Sheng Weiqiao reminded him, "When we set off, will my mother be pregnant? Calculating the time, by the time I get a foothold there, my mother will probably give birth soon. How can he not go back and take a look? "
Sheng Suihe's eyes flashed and he said, "Well, if there is a chance, he will accompany me back."
"No, it's my own ship and my own people, so why come here just like that? What's the need to worry about going back?" Sheng Weiqiao said, "I took a long leave just after I became an official. I will definitely not like it! Anyway, when the time comes, my mother will be born. After that, my family will definitely write to me and tell me!"
"As for what happens next year, let's talk about it then!" "Sheng Suihe looked at her for a few times and said calmly, "After all, although he has confidence in his talent and learning, things are unpredictable. Whether he can take the exam seriously or not is very uncertain... If he doesn't pass the exam, we will I came back without asking for company! "
After Sheng Weiqiao heard that, he immediately felt distressed and thought to himself: "It's really troublesome if he can't take the exam! If nothing else, let's just say that his aunt will definitely not let him go... In this way, he can't go back to Nanfeng County. What a good idea! It’s better to stay in Tianzijiodong. Even if my aunt secretly offers a reward, there will definitely not be many people who dare to assassinate south of Chang’an City. It’s safer after all!”
But it was hard for her to tell her about it. Firstly, did Ms. Feng love her aunt very much? Sheng Weiqiao didn't want Sheng Suihe to hate her aunt; secondly, Sheng Suihe failed in the exam, so now Telling him, "I beg you not to go back to Nanfeng County if you don't pass the exam," is both hurtful and unlucky.
So she struggled for a while and pretended to be angry: "When we were at home, my brother asked him to wait for his sister to become the number one scholar! Now he says such depressing words, which is so disappointing to him!"
"I like the No. 1 pick so much, so he naturally wants to work hard." Sheng Suihe smiled and said, "You have nothing else to say to me for the time being. I'll go back to the room to take a rest. There's still a little time before dinner, and he happens to be watching. Can read."
Sheng Weiqiao originally wanted to continue discussing the real murderer in Dongbishui County with him - he had just been interrupted by Tu Ruchuan's arrival - but when he heard that he was asking for a book, he didn't mention it. He stood up and said, "Go and call Ah Xi over and give him I serve the pen and ink."
Seeing Sheng Suihe nodding, she looked around the empty study room. Thinking of the scene where she would be surrounded by a group of maids and maids when she occasionally studied and took a stroll, she felt that his place was a bit deserted, so she said, "Brother, it's been two years since I came back." Now, except for Ah Xi, there are no other people I rely on. Before, I just concentrated on studying at home, which was fine! When I got to know more people in Chang'an, it was inevitable that I would go out to socialize or invite guests to my home. Isn't it true that Ah Xi is the only one who has the closest attendants, and is he afraid of going to the port?"
Sheng Suihe was about to tell her that he planned to promote Gongsun Yingdun here tomorrow, firstly to reward Gongsun Yingjiang for his knowledge and interests; secondly, after all, that boy was Gongsun Su's biological son, and as his uncle, he had not been able to teach him until now. It's time to get him back to teach him - we can't really let him work as a handyman for the rest of his life, right
It turned out that I heard Sheng Weiqiao ask: "Can you please allocate two maids to me? I can just let them do things like laying paper and grinding ink. When guests come, I can also let them do things like serving tea and water." They gave Ah Xi a leg kick."
[Note] History begins with the poor Princess Yuan Mingyue of Pingyuan. Well, in her time, the princesses of the Northern Wei Dynasty were quite tragic. Compared with Princess Yuanyi of Langya who was reduced to a domestic prostitute, she seemed to be very good, even though she was only twenty-seven when she died.
