Xuanyu Feng glanced around, and seeing that the servants all pushed him down, he said: "Xu Lianshan and Master Wu didn't find out the problem, but because the child hadn't been born yet, they were afraid that if the news leaked, it would cause trouble. What kind of disturbance is that, so I put people in the dungeon, and I plan to wait for the results on your side to come out before making a decision."
He added, "Yishan is also locked up. Although I don't think she has any intention of not taking good care of you, after all, when you had an accident, she was the closest, but she couldn't catch you in time. The state-owned legal family has House rules must be dealt with. Even she herself meant the same thing... But because she was from Mi Zhen, I thought it would be better to leave it to Mi Zhen to deal with it herself, so I just asked people to lock her up and didn't do anything. she."
"Since it was an accident, the baby has been born now, and there is nothing wrong with our mother." Hearing this, Sheng Weiqiao said, "Then let everyone go, and the little maid will reward you with some money to appease her... I remember she was only twelve or thirteen years old? She was thoroughly investigated at this age, so she must have endured hardships and been frightened. It’s so pitiful.”
Xuanyu Feng frowned and said: "Why do you always heal your scars and forget about the pain? I don't even think about it. Yesterday you were still here and planned to ask me to bring a message to your parents and your secret virginity! It's going to happen right now Is it settled?"
Sheng Weiqiao said coquettishly: "Quan should be doing good deeds for the child... Besides, this matter is ultimately my own fault. If I didn't go down the steps to see the flowers, or call Yishan to help me when I walked down, I wouldn't have done it." Something happened. Now it's the innocent maid who is responsible for it. I feel bad no matter what I think."
He whispered again, "Actually, although this birth was difficult, it is a good thing to think about it now. I don't know if the matter of Concubine Mo in Chang'an can be solved; a few days ago, Meng Boqin expelled the second son of the concubine for an excuse... Originally we thought that although the Queen Mother and Your Majesty are no longer young, they can still sustain peace for three to five years. But with the turmoil at the moment, aunt, tell me, how can we still have so much time to take our time? It's hard to say. Change is just around the corner!”
"And Meng Boqin is very powerful in northern Xinjiang, so this place is not a place for us to stay for a long time!"
"The reason why I was born was because of the prophecy, and also because I was already heavily pregnant and it was difficult to leave easily!"
"Now that the birth is a month ahead of schedule, as long as we keep the news, maybe it will be a blessing in disguise?"
Xuan Yu and Feng Shi pondered for a moment after hearing this, and thought to themselves: "The outside world knows that Qiao'er's delivery date is in July. If Meng Boqin is uneasy and well-intentioned and intends to use this matter to make a fuss, Qiao'er will give birth to the baby in advance now. It’s July, just after confinement, but it’s time to move around again... "
While I was thinking about it, I heard Sheng Weiqiao ask again: "Speaking of big changes, has there been any news about Ah Xi recently?"
She was eating porridge with a spoon. She had no time to answer. After swallowing, she raised her head and saw Sheng Weiqiao frowning and saying worriedly, "Because of uncle's request, I specially asked Yishan to send someone to chase him and deliver the letter. , that is, after he has finished his business, he will pay a visit to the Zhao Mansion... Well, he has always been cold and quiet, and I don’t know how the Zhao Mansion feels about him?"
"General Huaihua didn't want to recruit him as his son-in-law because he was eloquent." Xuanyu Feng took a sip of the tea next to her and said, "After all, isn't he attracted by Mi Zhen? That's it. , if the Zhao family is optimistic about Mi Zhen's future and has verified that A Xi has no hobbies that would treat his girls badly, they will probably agree... A Xi's appearance is still okay."
Compared with Gongsun Xi's personal affairs, she was more concerned about the overall situation. "It is said that Concubine Mo's favor during the reign of the late emperor was second only to Concubine Rou who was forced to be buried by the queen mother. Even after the late emperor passed away, her son, King Gaomi, would remain in the palace. She also has confidence, and I don’t know if you can control her with your skills?"
Sheng Weiqiao said: "I haven't met the concubine at all, so I can't say for sure, but she only has one son, my father-in-law. Not to mention the love between mother and son, let's just say that if she doesn't have this son, what will happen to her now? None! Is this enough to threaten her? She can't just fight for a breath and ignore everything? It's not that there are no such people, but they are very few. Since she was not the most favored during the late emperor's time, at that time she was still There is Concubine Rou on top of her, so it shows that she is not the kind of master who is too clever, otherwise Concubine Rou at that time would have given her a long memory!"
After saying this, she was silent for a while, and then asked again, "Is there any news from Xijiang recently?"
"Thinking about Mi Zhen?" Xuan Yu Feng noticed her words and knew what she was saying, and asked with a smile, "You thought you were in trouble before, and you wanted me to take the lead. It's hard for you to have the conscience to mention your parents first, but then you think about Mi Zhen. How pitiful Your grandparents, your beloved grandparents, have loved you for so many years, but they haven't achieved any status! I don't know how they feel when they find out about this later."
Sheng Weiqiao hurriedly said: "How could you forget your grandfather and grandmother?! Wasn't it because it was too painful and uncomfortable at the time and you didn't have the energy to say more?"
She put down her toothbrush in a hurry, reached over and took Xuan Yu Feng's arm and said coquettishly, "Aunt, you must not say that to them! You just refuse to give me face. My grandfather and grandmother are so old, if I continue What’s wrong with being sad?”
He also promised, "You helped me this time, and I will listen to you in everything from now on!"
"Look at how guilty you are!" Xuan Yu Feng was too tired these past two days. She is a grandmother after all, and her energy is not as good as when she was young. Although she only took a few bites of a bowl of porridge, she lost her appetite. , gave up, took out the silk handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the corners of his mouth slowly, and said, "For the sake of your conscience, I'll just pretend to be confused!"
She pondered for a moment, put the silk handkerchief on the small table in front of her, and said, "You gave birth early. Master Wu, Xu Lianshan, and General Huaihua were all very worried. They all stayed outside the delivery room for a long time that day. Like Master Wu, They stayed there from beginning to end. For such a big thing, they must have been the first to send news to Mi Zhen. Then when the child landed, General Huaihua ordered him to tell Mi Zhen the good news on the spot."
"Although Mi Zhen must also know the seriousness and will not leak this information easily to avoid being taken advantage of by Meng... However, it is best to write a letter to him, mention it to him, and discuss the child's affairs by the way."
"After all, you and your wife have given the child so many names before, but it seems that you have never decided on it? Also, counting the time, the child's full moon must be in Northern Xinjiang, and there is no way to make it public."
"Before I landed, I was called 'Little Prince' and 'Little Prince' by a group of people. After landing, I confirmed my identity as 'Little Prince'. This child is the eldest son of you and Mi Zhen, and he was born in At this time, for Mi Zhen, the significance of the situation is probably more than the joy of having a son!"
"So it's best to discuss matters that concern him with Mi Zhen."
Sheng Weiqiao listened carefully to her instructions, and finally nodded and said, "I'll have someone bring me pen and paper later to write a letter to Mi Zhen."
Xuanyu Feng smiled and nodded, and gently warned her niece: "Mi Zhen is under great pressure now, you know this. Although you are a couple, you are far apart now, and there are many things that even if you know about them, you are powerless. But It will only increase your sorrow! Therefore, it is better not to tell him about your difficult birth this time, and report the good news instead of the bad news, lest he worry about you while he is busy with everything, and delay the business! "
"Don't worry, aunt, I'm fine now." Although Sheng Weiqiao suffered a lot during this birth, her parents and husband were not around, and she felt a little aggrieved, but she has never been an unreasonable person... Well, at least most of them Under the circumstances, she was still very reasonable. At this moment, listening to Xuan Yu Feng's words, she felt that they made sense. After a little tangle, she nodded and said, "I won't hold him back!"
Little did he know that while her aunt was gentle and considerate on her face, she secretly said viciously: "I would like to see what kind of rules Mi Zhen's reply will be? If she is like Zhao Shi and others, she cares about him wholeheartedly. My new son doesn’t care about Qiaoer’s life or death at all... For such a ruthless nephew-in-law, it’s better to let him simply defeat and die before his wings are full, and don’t delay my Qiaoer’s remarriage!”
Thinking like this, Xuanyu Feng squinted his eyes and looked at Sheng Weiqiao who had eaten and drank enough, looking tired, and stood up: "You have consumed too much this time, so you should rest. There are many children who are cared for, so there is no need to worry about them... I'll go back to my room to settle down first, and ask the mother-in-law and maids to come and watch over them. Tell them what they need, and if anything happens, send someone to find me, ah?"
Seeing Sheng Weiqiao nodding obediently, he called in the servants who were waiting, gave a few instructions, and left.
She went out, returned to her room, and called the maid to serve her. After washing herself, although she was very tired, she did not enter the account immediately. Instead, she ordered the maid to study the ink: "Qiao Er is very happy to have a son. Although he is still very tired now, It’s not suitable to spread news to outsiders, but it’s time to report to the principals of the three families in Nanfeng County... They are all measured and will not leak it."
This letter from home, which looked like an ordinary greeting and good news, but was actually full of code words and tacit understandings, was delivered to Mrs. Feng a few days later through the channels of Wuyi Camp.
At this time, Chang'an was already in chaos.
The 400,000 Forbidden Army fell into an unprecedented split. The faction headed by the Grand Commander of the Forbidden Army supported King Gaomi and firmly controlled the four gates of Chang'an City; while the Forbidden Army loyal to Emperor Xuanjing ushered in an unexpected new commander in the chaos. Commander: Meng Guiyu.
It's just that when Meng Guiyu took office, there was no feeling of joy at all.
This is not because the situation that Shanglinyuan faces now is so precarious that the so-called position of commander is simply a hot potato; nor is it because even if the Chang'an rebellion is resolved, facing the 800,000 Northern Xinjiang Army and the reborn Western Xinjiang Army, The Xinjiang army, even if the 400,000 forbidden troops are as intact as finger-arms, the future seems uncertain...
But because Meng Guihuan died.
