Queen Meng frowned immediately after receiving the news, wondering if it was a trap.
She told Suyin very intimately: "When Ah Xi took him to hide around the palace, he once asked him why he went to the erotic palace by such a coincidence? At that time, he casually asked if someone asked him to go. Someone gave him something. He asked who that person was, and did he mean to harm him?"
"However, he seemed to feel that he had made a mistake by saying that. No matter how much he asked Jie Donglai, he remained silent."
"But he thought that he had sent him a message on Kang Zhao's order, and then disappeared without a trace. Even though there are many empty and uninhabited places in the city of Qunyuan, it is impossible to find people who know the truth, and it is impossible to hide them for more than a month. Undetected.”
"Even if Ah Xi had served as a bodyguard for him before, he could only wander around at that time and could only visit the erotic palace."
"There is nothing to understand when you are wrong about the entire palace."
"At that time, King Gaomi's Qingsu Palace, his Spring Palace, was a place that everyone avoided and secretly paid attention to."
"He asked if he was nearby. It only lasts for a day or two. How can he not reveal his whereabouts after a long time?"
"Please, if I can go somewhere else, someone can give me some advice?"
"Besides, at that time everyone in the palace was afraid that Dongdong would offend King Gaomi because of him!"
"Except for the fact that he never left me when spring came, all the other servants left without saying a word. Even the imperial kitchen was unwilling to send food."
"In that case, even if you send Ah Xi to secretly deliver something to him, he's probably still a steward, right?"
"After all, the package Axi took to Wangchun Palace was not within the reach of ordinary palace people."
"So, it was the mistake of Ge Zhongpeng who came to the door at that time... The question is no, Ah Xi was hiding under Ge Zhongpeng's cover at that time and had no intention of going to the erotic palace. Or Ge Zhongpeng asked him to give him something, and he That’s why I came over there.”
"Then he and Chun Lai were hanged on a beam as soon as they arrived, and then they were besieged again... Who would believe that someone was plotting against him?"
"So, do we think Ge Zhongpeng is reliable?"
Neither Xuyin nor Luxin knew what happened. They were surprised when they heard this. After thinking for a moment, they asked: "Empress, when you and Axi were hiding in the palace... did Ge Zhongpeng take the initiative to contact us?" "
Empress Meng recalled it carefully, shook her head and said: "As far as he knew, Bu Nao was not a burden to Ah Xi at all at that time. After he settled him, he went out alone to inquire about information and find food and water. … In the meantime, the people who besieged him tried to follow him and assassinate him, but they failed, but we also know the specific story. Axi has always been taciturn and does not talk much. "
She pondered for a while and then said, "Do we suspect there is an affair? In fact, he also felt that there was an affair, because the people who were chasing them seemed to be very scrupulous and did not dare to make a big fuss in the palace... Well, he was very suspicious of the Shu sisters at the time. He thought they wanted to take advantage of that opportunity to kill him, but after thinking about it later, he felt that it was not wrong. After all, he and the Shu sisters had always been at a disadvantage."
"I wonder if he would not forget to kill them when he was in danger. Is that reasonable?"
"In the situation they were in at that time, shouldn't they have thought of him at all?"
"Besides, he was in a very bad situation at that time. Even if they didn't do anything, he would still be suffering."
"Axi didn't contact Ge Zhongpeng when he took you to hide in Tibet, so it doesn't necessarily mean that he doesn't trust Ge Zhongpeng." Lu thought for a while and said to her, "Maybe I don't want to expose Ge Zhongpeng. If Ge Zhongpeng didn't contact us during that period, If so, the possibility is very high, if Ge Zhongpeng also realizes it, he will have to stand by and watch our situation."
"As for the people who were chasing us at that time, if they didn't dare to make a big fuss, then there is indeed a question of whether Ke Ke was in the Linyuan at that time? After all, the palace city was within the control of King Gaomi at that time. If it weren’t for the people from King Gaomi, you might not need to be so scrupulous.”
"You said that the situation of the Shu sisters may not have occurred to you... I have a guess, is that you are not the queen after all?"
Empress Meng frowned and said, "Did I say that they were interested in his position? Even if he was alone in the palace at that time, they were afraid that if he didn't die, he would continue to occupy Wangchun Palace?"
Lu Xin nodded: "Although the two concubines in the palace were not favored by them, they stayed in their own palace honestly, and they did not say that they were deliberately looking for trouble. Only Du Niangniang, even if you go around them specially, they are still rushing to make trouble with you at that time! The difference is that the concubines are just concubines, but you are not a serious empress!"
The queen pondered: "He has also considered that kind of cocoa, but when we went to Linyuan later, although Concubine Shu was dead, Shu Zhaoyi had no intention of provoking him. Even at that time, because of the death of the concubine, Peng Bin and others He was favored again, and Zhaoyi went to fight for his favor, but had no time to trouble him personally, and there was no intention of sending anyone to follow him to find out... I always thought there was something good about him? "
They discussed it for a while before they realized that they had to find out who wanted to plot against Gongsun Xi and Queen Meng in the first place, and whether they believed Ge Zhongpeng or not.
Suyin hesitated and said: "Is there no problem with the incision over there? The person who came here took Manager Dong's token. He has seen the token and it is indeed authentic... From this point of view, it may not be untrustworthy?"
Lu Xin suggested: "We don't want the Queen to get involved for the time being, just let us come forward. That way, even if there is any trap, the Queen will be able to escape easily!"
He then said to the queen, "If something goes wrong among the slaves, you must protect yourself! There are many slaves like this, and Director Dong will probably send them over to serve you after a few months!" You are the most important and demanding."
The queen hesitated for a while and agreed to Donglai. However, she went to contact Ge Zhongpeng. She specifically did not say anything about sending someone to impersonate Meng Jiaxing. Instead, she picked up a few irrelevant news and got another letter in black clothes. The letter could only be read by Yingying, and he asked to confirm Ge Zhongpeng's reliability before telling him the real secret.
Not to mention the contacts in the palace, there is a hundred-month banquet in Nanfeng County for Rong Ruibin.
Originally, based on the Sheng family's status in Nanfeng County and Rong Ruibin's status, they definitely wanted to take special measures. However, considering safety issues, we held a family dinner that time and invited relatives to attend, but declined all others.
Bu Nao Sheng Lanci and his wife specially sent people to serve meat porridge outside the city for half a month. In order to pray for Ruibin, they also sent a batch of cattle, sheep and livestock laborers to the Southern Xinjiang Army, so that they could be used in case of need after the month. Prepare for them.
When discussing supplies for the army, Feng was troubled because Sheng Weiyuan had been naughty again in the past two months, so she discussed with her husband: "Yuan'er's naughty character has been beaten and scolded many times, but he hasn't changed! Such a thing!" Go, but what's the best? He thinks that in the final analysis, the child knows what he knows, knows that we are his biological parents, and he is the only male heir, so there is no way he will die! It is better to leave some confinement training to outsiders. Very good!"
"Otherwise..."
Her face darkened, and she looked outside. Seeing that her confidants were guarding her, she whispered, "When you grow up, like your second brother, we will bring trouble to our family at the last resort. We two have the right to commit evil in this life. These confinements have gone away, anyway, what should I do if I can't see out of sight and teach my good girl?"
"If you want to control her, we parents can't train her well. She is a sister who has always been kind-hearted and soft-legged. How can we control her?"
"As for Bu Sheng, I can't ask for comment, but my good girl is cruel, and I don't know how to feel sorry for such a biological brother!"
"Do I want to send him to the Southern Xinjiang Army to hone his skills?" Sheng Lanci hesitated, "However, the Southern Xinjiang Army and Mi Zhen have an agreement. Since we know that Yuan'er is Mi Zhen's brother-in-law, how can we treat him badly? I can't say that he After I sent it over, I was held in arms and pampered, and I prayed for it even more."
Moreover, "Yuaner Ruming is too young after all. If I send it over at that age, they may not be willing to accept it!"
Feng said: "Who said that he would be sent to the Southern Xinjiang Army? Couldn't he be thinking of Tortoiseshell Island? Although Tortoiseshell Island has surrendered to the imperial court at Ruming, a group of direct descendants from Mi Zhenshan Leg Didong are also with us at Ruming. The family... why not ask them to behave themselves to Yuan'er?"
Sheng Lanci's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then he pondered: "I wonder if they will agree?"
"Our family is not the kind of unreasonable family!" Feng said angrily, "They were on Tortoiseshell Island before, and we were considered neighbors. Don't they know the basics? Let my dear girl tell me, and she will probably agree! What’s more, we can’t let them do red work. Can you please bring Yuan’er over? We all have gifts to thank you!”
The couple thought it was a good idea, so they turned around and told Sheng Weiqiao.
Sheng Weiqiao had heard a little about the training of children on Tortoiseshell Island earlier, and he knew whether some of the practices were really cruel, so he couldn't help but feel sad: "Yuan'er is only a little old, and after a few years of asking for permission, he refused to change. Say more?"
"Three-year-olds are old. If you don't follow the rules now, will they be very good in the future?" But Sheng Lanci and his wife both shook their heads, "Besides, our mansion is so big, it's really not good. We can probably build another courtyard in the city, and the left and right We can't see what happens to this kid when he gets into someone's lap, so why should I feel bad? I'll just treat him as if he's enjoying his happiness!"
Sheng Weiqiao: "..."
Father and mother
Because Quebu Nao and his wife insisted, she had no choice but to call Xu Lianshan to her and asked her to beg in a polite way.
Did Sheng Wei Qiao expect Xu Lianshan to refuse, but Xu Lianshan didn't know if he didn't see what she meant. Be well-behaved, sensible and sensible, and become a qualified heir to the Sheng family!
Sheng Weiqiao had no choice in the situation, and said with a wry smile: "Yuan'er is young, and he has been pampered before. His parents are just a son, and he is just a brother. We should be patient! Those who will damage our vitality Legs, don’t ask for him to be there!”
Xu Lianshan said with a smile: "Don't worry, Madam! Can the Tenth Young Master, the brother-in-law of the county king and the direct uncle of the crown prince, borrow Dong's 800 courage? How dare Zuodong wrong him? Those people in Shudong were in the grass earlier, and Dong Dong's legs I have killed so many people, and for that reason, I have to be the most measured! I guarantee that I will adjust the Tenth Young Master’s temper, and I will never let the Tenth Young Master get any real harm!”
He was so steadfast in his vows, and Sheng Weiqiao had the impression that Xu Lianshan was not a very stable and trustworthy person from the first time they met, so he believed him, encouraged him, and went to report to Sheng Lanci and his wife.
Sheng Lanci and his wife were very happy after hearing the news. Dangdong first gave Xu Lianshan a good knife and a horse, then immediately packed up his things and handed Sheng Weiyuan to him.
