Although Sheng Weiqiao had been taught by his aunt Feng for many years in the past two years, firstly, he lacked practical experience; secondly, after all, Sheng Weiqiao was not the head of a powerful family in a county. I wish I could give everything I have to teach Sheng Weiqiao, limited to my own vision and structure, and teach Sheng Weiqiao all kinds of tricks. He is very good at dealing with ordinary house fights, but when it comes to intrigues at the level of a temple, he suddenly becomes a little unscrupulous.
Sheng Weiqiao has lived in Nanfeng County for a long time and has a very high status in the county. In the past ten years of life, there has been no one who needs her special respect or even to please her. She has very little experience in dealing with the incumbents - so she is trying to figure out what to do. At this level, it can be described as "miserable".
The Nan who accompanied her to the palace was Mrs. Hou who came from a poor family. Among the concubines of similar status, the city government was also at the bottom.
So neither of them noticed that Empress Dowager Meng and Princess Wuyang had no intention of mentioning the matter of Bishui County tomorrow!
Empress Dowager Meng never thought that she would not forgive Sheng Weiqiao's offense during the first interview. When she proposed the July date, she asked her to beat the girl and make her fear for a few days as punishment.
Secondly, did the Sheng brothers and sisters move out of the Ningwei Hou Mansion overnight on the day of their first audience? Did the Queen Mother know about it a long time ago? The brother and sister were attracted to the Meng family, so Princess Wuyang asked Sheng Weiqiao if she was married, and the queen mother asked her to go to the palace frequently and interact with the girls of the Meng family.
If the Empress Dowager Ming was trying to coax Sheng Weiqiao, how could she deliberately make things difficult for her again
The third time, it was because the Queen Mother did not expect Sheng Weiqiao to come up with any regulations regarding matters in Bishui County - it was really a joke! The imperial envoy specially sent by the imperial court, the official of Bishui County in the east, rushed to Bishui County immediately after the incident, the confidant of the Meng family and the arm of the King of Gaomi... So many outstanding men were helpless until Ru Ming, one who was raised in a boudoir and was very healthy at the moment What can a girl do outside Chang'an City, thousands of miles away from Bishui County
Although Empress Dowager Meng and Princess Wuyang knew what they were thinking, Huan Yehe, who came on the way, failed to understand their thoughts and actually asked them directly!
So, although the July promise was not deliberately publicized, it was still made in the Nuan Pavilion in front of a group of people that month.
No one mentioned it, so it was just so vague.
As Minghuan said at night, Empress Dowager Meng could not continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb, so she looked at Sheng Weiqiao and said, "If Jingshu didn't say anything, the Ai family would have almost forgotten about it! I will go to work on that matter tomorrow." Are you from the palace? How is it? There is very little news from Bishui County in July. It can be seen that the imperial envoy has not found any clues, but I don’t know if I have any suggestions? If not, can the Ai family ask me to kiss Wuyang’s legs as a punishment? Made in a set of clothes!"
Although the Queen Mother's words continued the tone of "I will be punished if I don't take over Dong Bishui County's affairs" before July, but making clothes for Princess Wuyang is not so much a punishment as it is a way for Sheng Wei to get close to Princess Wuyang. Opportunity!
"Little girl of the Sheng family, I must have heard what I just said to County Master Jingshu." After hearing the Queen Mother's words, Princess Wuyang smiled and said, "Do I have very high vision? If not, I’m not good at legging, so I won’t force myself to wear the clothes I made! Then I’ll have to practice being a female prostitute!”
The Empress Dowager Cuo said, "Sure enough, I know that my mother always talks about being angry with my son, but she actually never forgets my son! I punish the little girl of the Sheng family, and I don't forget to benefit my son!"
The Queen Mother said with a smile: "There is nothing I can do! Who told me to open my mouth? I am not lenient at all! If the Ai family please remember me, I don't know how to make trouble with the Ai family!"
Princess Wuyang smiled and said: "Well, I know that you, Queen Mother, love your son very much and are reluctant to let him make trouble with you!"
At that point, Xu Hou saw Sheng Weiqiao being very nervous as she stood up and left her seat, and nodded to her comfortingly, "Good child, I don't want to be afraid, just say it! You can make clothes for me, I really can't do it." Okay, there are a lot of people in the eldest princess's mansion who can teach me. Come and take me over and stay for a few months. Look at my smart appearance. I'm sure I can learn it. Maybe the Queen Mother can take it back. Here’s what I made!”
"Just now I felt that I was favoring that child, but now my true colors have been revealed!" The Queen Mother raised her palms and said, "Looking at these young girls with all their might, asking for this or that, asking for it on your own is very imprudent and very embarrassing. Begging to be pulled at Ai's house - it's the New Year's Day when the horse is here, and it's the Lantern Festival after the New Year. It's just when girls of their age are playful, I don't want to force the child to do needlework in the boudoir for months, and look back to other parents Even though she was not in Chang'an, her brother and sister felt distressed and went to the Ai family to cry and ask whether the Ai family would deal with it fairly and not favor me!"
Listening to the words of the Queen Mother and the eldest princess, Nan was really surprised and happy. She secretly wondered if Sheng Weiqiao Zhen was so blessed. They had only been in the palace twice together, yet they were favored by the nobles like that, and the Queen Mother had grown up. For the princess, everyone was rushing to stretch out their thighs to be hugged by her!
She had previously felt that even if Sheng Suihe didn't mean to trick her sister, at his age, he wouldn't have made any mistakes in that matter, so she was very worried about Mingyue's appearance.
At that time, I completely put my heart back in my stomach - anyway, the Queen Mother's attitude towards Mule was clear. If she couldn't answer, not only would she not pursue it, she would also introduce Sheng Weiqiao to Princess Wuyang!
What are you thinking about at that time
Just kneel down and apologize, saying, "I have nothing to do with you, my servant." Then it's logical to ask Princess Wuyang for advice on her favorite dress styles, colors, accessories, etc.!
However, Sheng Weiqiao smiled with a slightly red face, raised his voice slightly, and said: "Reporting to the Queen Mother, the Eldest Princess, and the County Lord: I received the Queen Mother's oral instructions seven months ago. After I returned, because of Ziren's stupidity, I Even if I think hard and meditate, I can’t do anything..."
When Queen Mother Meng and Princess Wuyang heard this, they all smiled and said, "I knew there was nothing I could do." Nanshi also thought, "That niece has enlightened herself and knows what to say now." .
Unexpectedly, Sheng Weiqiao paused for a moment, and then said: "Brother Bu Nao has been thinking deeply about this for many months after learning about it, but he has gained something. I have the courage to report it to the Queen Mother, the eldest princess, and the county head!"
The faces of Queen Mother Meng, Princess Wuyang, and Nan froze at the same time!
Huan Yehe's eyes flickered, revealing a half-smile, which disappeared in an instant. His long eyelashes flickered, and his starry eyes were dim, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking at the moment.
"How on earth did that bastard kid train Qiao Er?!" Nan lowered his head to hide the anxiety between his brows - they are brothers and sisters, the older brother is so powerful, then why does the younger sister seem to make people think "She is not suitable for Chang'an" every time? What about "mix"? ?
Even though Nan's family was not of high birth, Chengfu had always been at the bottom among the ladies of similar status. She knew that when the Queen Mother had no intention of pursuing a matter and gave a solution to calm the matter, the best thing to do was to obey the Queen Mother. I mean, instead of continuing to try my best!
The reason is simple: the more you say, the more mistakes you make!
Especially if Sheng Suihe came to Chang'an for the purpose of participating in the Spring Festival. Even if he wanted to show off in front of the Queen Mother, he should do so after being named on the gold list!
That would make Sheng Weiqiao convey his opinion that he was wrong about Bishui County. If it doesn't work, it will ruin his talent in vain; if it works, it will be even more tragic. It will directly slap in the face the imperial envoys who are currently working hard in Bishui County and all those involved in tracing this matter. Everyone!
No matter what the situation is, it will have an impact on his title on the Gold List - and it will have a bad influence!
Qiu Bu was afraid that she would be disgraceful in front of the Queen Mother, and Nan wanted to jump up and stop Sheng Weiqiao!
"Brother Ling?" The original smile on Empress Dowager Meng's face faded a little, and after thinking for a while, she said, "Oh, is it my brother who asked to attend the Spring Festival next year? It is said that he is Jieyuan of Nanfeng County?"
To Nan's ears, this sentence already clearly implies: My brother is going to participate in the spring festival next year, he is a Jie Yuan! I'm calling him to be careful! Don't cheat your own family!
However, Sheng Weiqiao, who was "not suitable to hang out in Chang'an", didn't know whether he heard it or not. He didn't care if he heard it or not, and said: "What the Queen Mother said is true or not!"
Probably seeing her tireless efforts to commit stupidity, the Queen Mother did not want to continue to save her. After being silent for a while, she said: "My brother is not very old. He can do Jieyuan at that age. It is obvious that he has real talent. In this case, I Just say it!”
Sheng Weiqiao thanked him, took a deep breath to calm down, and then said the words of Sheng Sleeping Crane Sect word by word: "My brother thinks that this matter may be related to Ruru!"
"Ruru?!" Just like when Sheng Weiqiao heard what Sheng Suihe said, everyone in the palace was shocked when he heard the words, including Huan Yehe, who had been looking calm just now, with clear shock in his eyes!
The Queen Mother's expression changed drastically, as if she was undergoing intense deliberation. After a moment, she squeezed out three words from between her teeth: "Continue!"
