Previously, the King of Gaomi suddenly raised an army and instigated the rebellion of the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army. Not only did he kill almost all the Meng family members and party members, but also the Queen Mother, Emperor Xuanjing and the Shu sisters who had just moved to Shanglinyuan were panicked. .
Although he failed outside the Hehuan Palace, after occupying Chang'an, he held a large number of powerful hostages and slandered Emperor Xuan Jing that he had died long ago and that the one who was now in office was just a substitute. This made many people who wanted to serve the king hesitate to move forward, fearing that this was a false statement. True, his loyalty turned out to be a treasonous act, bringing disaster to the nine clans.
On the other hand, the people on King Gaomi's side originally followed him for the purpose of serving the dragon. After receiving the news, they probably gathered some troops, horses and food and came to support.
Therefore, although the divided Imperial Army was in a confrontation, looking at the situation, it was the Gaomi King's side that gradually gained the upper hand.
At this moment, when he heard that Shanglinyuan was attacking the city, King Gaomi was not surprised but overjoyed. He stood up and said, "This must be Meng Guiyu who knows that if the stalemate continues, he and his substitute are nothing but death! So! Now I can’t hold it any longer!”
As he spoke, he walked out. He was going to the city to supervise the battle. He also ordered, "Tell the spies outside to be alert! Lest they attack in the east and west and use the opportunity of attacking Chang'an City to attract our attention, they can privately protect the substitute and escape." Somewhere else!"
Mrs. Sheng and the other three were just lucky to have escaped. Although they knew that King Gaomi had invited them over this time, he never said he would not look for them next time. However, now that they had passed the test, they could finally take a breather, and most importantly, they could still take advantage of the opportunity. Collusion to make a confession or something, to offset the unpreparedness of being "invited" unexpectedly after a peaceful period of time.
Who would have thought that King Gaomi remembered it at this time and turned around and said, "I heard that Mr. Sheng had been fighting in northern Xinjiang for many years. I guess he is also interested in the scene at this moment. How about going with Gu to supervise the battle?"
Old Mrs. Sheng frowned and said: "Thank you for your great love, Your Majesty. I am very grateful! It's just that I am old and have injuries. When I am no longer in my prime, this kind of scene will be a disappointment after going away, and it will not delay the Prince's business."
Do you think he is stupid
Although because of the father-son relationship between Rong Suihe and King Gaomi, as the in-law family of Rong Suihe, the Sheng family is inevitably considered by most people to be the faction of King Gaomi.
However, the Sheng family did not express their position clearly for a day, and there was still room for action after all.
If we were to fight against the Gaomi Dynasty at the top of the city, where would we be able to clear it
Even if he is not worried that the King of Gaomi will lose to Meng Guiyu, Mr. Sheng still has to think about Rong Suihe: Rong Suihe's Yue family has obviously taken sides, how can Rong Suihe stay out of the matter
Doesn’t this mean helping King Gaomi to drag his grandson-in-law onto the rebellion ship
It's not like he didn't know that Rong Suihe had a bad relationship with King Gaomi, and he might not be willing to follow King Gaomi's plans. How could he agree to such an invitation
"I just asked my in-laws to give instructions on the formation, but I don't want him to take the lead personally." But the King of Gaomi did not allow him to refuse, and said coldly, "My in-laws are used to the big scenes in Northern Xinjiang, and they don't like the small things like Gu. Making a fuss?"
Speaking of which, King Gaomi now has the final say in Chang'an. Old Mrs. Sheng had no choice but to say: "The prince doesn't think I'm old, so I'll go with him!"
Old Mrs. Feng glanced at Mrs. Ming who was full of worry, smiled and held her hands in her hands, saying: "Your Majesty! Can the common people come with us and learn more about it?"
The King of Gaomi was all-powerful and said: "Old Master Feng is the only one!"
Seeing him go, Mrs. Ming was about to speak, but she was glared at by Mrs. Sheng: "When you go back, keep an eye on your house. Don't take advantage of our absence to use those rare antiques and other things as dishonest things." The servant touched it!"
Mrs. Ming was startled for a moment before she realized that the three of them had been "invited" in a hurry. At this moment, she didn't know whether the old home, for example, whether Ningwei Houfu had received the news, couldn't they leave someone to go back and report the news
However, she was still thinking about reporting the news. After a while, she was driven back to Sheng Mansion by carriage, only to find that there were a circle of people surrounding the mansion, all wearing bright armor, holding bows and swords, as if they were ransacking their homes and exterminating their clans.
Mrs. Ming was originally timid, but when she saw this situation, her legs became weak.
The leading guard told her politely but without any room for change: "Your Majesty is worried that bandits will disturb the house during this emergency, so he specially ordered his subordinates to wait here!"
Fortunately, Mrs. Ming was watched and could not send people to deliver the news to the people she was close to. However, the Ningwei Hou Mansion already knew about this matter. Nanshi was worried: "The King of Gaomi is not interested in Mi Zhen, his biological son." So cruel, let alone to the secretly married parents-in-law? The old man and the old lady are old, how can they suffer? What should I do? How about I go and see the princess? "
"I'm afraid it won't be of any use if I go there." Hearing this, Xu Zijing reminded her, "So many big things have happened in Chang'an these days. The princess is already gone, so how come she doesn't know about it? But she hasn't come forward until now. However, it is obvious that either you agree with King Gaomi's approach, or you cannot persuade King Gaomi. No matter which way it is, your trip is in vain and it is in vain to embarrass the princess. "
Nan didn't understand this truth, but she was worried about Mrs. Sheng, Mrs. Ming and Mrs. Feng. After thinking for a long time, she was at a loss, so she had to discuss with her husband and hide it from Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xiahou for the time being: "It's not that I don't care about friendship. , but now that there is no feasible strategy, if you teach your parents early on, it will be harmful to your health if you worry about it! My parents are old, so it is better to wait for a few days and see if there is any change in the situation."
Xu Zijing thought so too, so the couple called their servants to come over and beat them, so as to temporarily hide it from the two old people.
After sending the servants away, Nan was worried about Sheng Weiqiao who was far away in northern Xinjiang: "Two days ago, Mrs. Feng came over in person to tell us that Qiao'er was born prematurely and it was difficult to deliver. Fortunately, the child has great blessings and the mother and child are safe! I am happy. , who knew that it would be like this now... I really don’t know what the hearts of the Gaomi King and his wife are like? In the past, the princess didn’t like Qiaoer very much. After knowing that Qiaoer was pregnant, I still thought about it. If I don’t like my daughter-in-law, how can I Is there anyone who doesn’t like his grandson? Looking back at his grandson’s face, he must have been a little tolerant towards Qiaoer... Looking back now, I can’t blame Mi Zhen for not being close to his biological parents. Who wouldn’t be disappointed by such parents, any sensible person?”
"Although that kid Mi Zhen is young, he is very accurate in his judgment of people and things." Xu Zijing also sighed, "Fortunately, he has such a temperament, otherwise how would Qiao Er live? These days, a mother-in-law who treats her daughter-in-law well would have to There are not many, and there are even fewer people who are as considerate and sensible as you. Princesses come from a common background, and there are many ways to calmly treat people. As for Qiao Er, how can she be a match for this mother-in-law? Without a secret chastity protector, Qiao Er is so naive. I'm afraid I won't survive even a few years!"
"I really don't understand Princess!" Nan frowned and said, "It's impossible to say that she was responsible for the epidemic in the palace in the early years. Otherwise, how could she and her own flesh and blood survive after that? Concubine Mo Regardless of whether he is the King of Gaomi, there is no reason to poison his own flesh and blood, right? Even the concubines of the King of Gaomi were sent away!"
"From this incident, we can see that she is really distressed by Mi Zhen's exile!"
"After Mi Zhen was taken back by them, I felt that the princess really loved and loved her son!"
"Why is it that whether it's the previous rumors or the current situation, she seems to have suddenly forgotten that Mi Zhen is her son?"
At this moment, Princess Gaomi, whom they were talking about, was sitting in the pavilion behind Xiangji Hall, staring intently at the clear but bottomless pool of water in front of her.
Not far behind, Zhao Taomei, who had been waiting for a long time, felt a little uneasy: "Auntie, did I say something wrong?"
"Ah?" The princess seemed a little distracted. She was stunned for a moment, then turned away and smiled, "Good boy, what did you say? I'm really sorry. I just thought of some past events and didn't pay attention!"
Zhao Taomei said with concern: "Since it is the past, it has passed. If I am unhappy, it is better not to think about it... It is windy on the lake. Aunt, do you think it is okay? How about we go back to the hall to talk?"
Princess Gaomi smiled and declined her kindness: "It's hot right now, so it's cool to talk here. If I go back to the hall, even if I have Bingjian, I will feel stuffy after all."
Then he asked her, "What did you just say?"
"It's the matter of eldest sister." Zhao Taomei said hurriedly, "Although we all think that uncle will not embarrass her and she has nephews and nieces, eldest sister may have been frightened by the tragedy at Guangling Palace and has been uneasy these past two days. ... I can’t eat well, I can’t sleep well, and when I have free time, I just hug my nephew and cry with my niece! You think if this takes a long time, how can it be done?"
"So I... I took this opportunity to ask my aunt for advice!"
… When Mrs. Qin asked her granddaughter to come to see Princess Gaomi that day, Zhao Taomei originally planned to come immediately, but while she was watching the servants making cakes and other questioning gifts for Princess Gaomi in the kitchen, her sister-in-law, Mrs. Li, came over and asked her She called to the side and said, "Grandma asked you to find your aunt to intercede with your eldest sister?"
Seeing my sister-in-law nodding, she asked again, "Are you planning to go there right away?"
After receiving Zhao Taomei's confirmation, Mrs. Li scolded her for being ignorant: "If grandma goes to find my aunt right away, that's fine! You, a junior, are so eager to doubt your uncle, even if your uncle is not as experienced as a child like you." , how can I be happy in my heart? Now it is my uncle who makes the decision in Chang'an. Although we are his in-law's family, because my father helps my cousin Mi Zhen, my uncle is a little unhappy with our family these days. Why should you? Are you doing this again? Grandma is very old, so she was a little uneasy when she heard what happened to her eldest sister, so she didn’t think it through. Why didn’t you think more about it yourself so that you could fill in the gaps for her? "
"But where is the eldest sister?" Zhao Taomei felt that what her sister-in-law said was reasonable, but she was worried about Zhao Taoshang.
"Why are you so anxious? I sent someone to pick up the eldest sister, how can I leave her alone?" Mrs. Li pointed out, "It's just that she just came back! There are so many complicated things going on with my uncle now, even if Thinking of the eldest sister, you don't have to rush to take her and the two nephews, right? Just wait a few days and then go visit your aunt. Then you can say that the eldest sister has been full of worries during the days when she came back to stay for a while. , as the younger sister, you looked worried, so you went to your aunt for help... Even if your uncle finds out, you can still say that the eldest sister is just a prostitute after all. How can you not be frightened after encountering the tragedy of the Guangling Palace being almost destroyed? "
"If outsiders know about it, they won't talk about my uncle's bad treatment of our Zhao family. Do you think this is the truth?"
At this moment, Zhao Taomei followed her sister-in-law's instructions and told Princess Gaomi in detail: "My eldest sister has always been gentle and virtuous, and she is just a female. She neither knows nor understands those important things, but now she just wants to Let your nephew and niece grow up safely!"
