Raising a Dog is Better than Palace Fight Chapter 30

Chapter 30 Witchcraft

    In the court, the Li family and the Shen family were fighting endlessly. The confidants of the former Emperor Wu of Zhou were squeezed out and replaced, and the situation became increasingly chaotic. Many of the emperor's ministers are muttering: Why is the emperor's methods becoming more and more weak, and he has a tendency to become a hand-off boss. Looking at the harem where a hundred flowers bloomed, the ministers realized that the emotional emperor had been seduced by a woman! The emperor has been on the throne since he was 17 years old, and has been in power for exactly ten years now. He has always been very restrained when it comes to women, so why did his temperament change drastically after he was injured? Could it be that he was stimulated by the rumors a while ago?

　　Several ministers with upright temperaments directly went to the police to persuade the emperor not to indulge in beauty and neglect the government. The emperor not only refused to listen, but also severely punished several leaders, which really chilled the hearts of a group of veteran ministers. Your Majesty is on your way to being a fool!

　　Disgusting news continued to flow into Bixiao Palace. Emperor Zhou Wu could only watch the fakes ruining his reputation and destroying his country but was unable to do anything, and his mood became increasingly gloomy.

　　Fortunately, Meng Sangyu was always with him, making delicious cakes and soups for him, taking him for a walk in the garden of Bixiao Palace in the morning and evening, planting flowers and plants in the morning, and going to the study to read and write in the afternoon. The days were leisurely and fulfilling, so he was not let down. One bad news after another hit me to the point of collapse. Without Meng Sangyu, he knew that he would never be able to survive such a bad situation for so long. It is no exaggeration to say that Meng Sangyu is the hope of his life, and he can no longer live without him.

　　On this day, Emperor Wu of Zhou, who had been depressed for several days, finally received good news: Meng Guogong achieved a great victory at the border. He used 60,000 soldiers and horses to repel the 100,000 barbarian army, and formed a siege on the barbarian imperial court. , the barbarian power can be taken over in less than a month, and the surrounding areas can be protected for a hundred years of peace.

　　When the news came, Bixiao Palace, which had been silent for a long time, once again entered the sight of the concubines in the harem. Although Concubine De fell out of favor, her mother-in-law was too tough, and she would definitely return to favor when Meng Guogong's class teacher returned to the court. For such a great contribution, it would be unreasonable for the emperor not to reward her. Above the concubine, she is a concubine, an imperial concubine, or even a queen. With such a family background, who can compete with her? I'm afraid even Concubine Li will have to retreat!

　　Meng Sangyu didn't care that the palaces were about to move. She was reading the good news over and over again with a comfortable smile on her lips.

　　"The barbarian regime is about to fall apart, and my father's long-standing wish will finally come true. At this point, he and the emperor are quite compatible, and they are both committed to fighting the barbarians and strengthening the border defense. If you remove that suspicion, the emperor can be regarded as a It is a rare wise king. If he had not insisted on abandoning the late emperor’s political strategy of emphasizing culture and suppressing military affairs and devoted himself to developing national defense and military affairs, I am afraid that our Zhou Dynasty would still be suffering from the invasion of border wars. How could we have the current prosperous age." With a long sigh, General Meng Sangyu The good news was handed to Nanny Feng with a smile on her face.

　　Emperor Zhou Wu stared at the victory report and turned to the woman with a serious face. It was rare to hear this woman praise him, so he raised his mouth in a wide arc and flicked his tail.

　　"Your Majesty is right. No matter how powerful those barbarians are, they will immediately turn into silver pewter spear heads when they confront our Duke, which is useless! I heard that our Duke's reputation is frightening among the barbarians. His expression changes when he hears it, it will stop the child from crying at night!" Grandma Feng gave a thumbs up.

　　Meng Sangyu also laughed, his bright eyes full of pride. Emperor Wu of Zhou also barked twice to show his agreement. Now when talking about Meng Guogong, he has long lost his original defense and suspicion. Instead, he feels that the fact that Zhou has such a fierce general guarding the border and that he has such a wise minister to assist him is God's blessing to Zhou.

　　"The war at the border is coming to an end. Father will be back soon to rescue the emperor, and we will be safe." The smile on his face disappeared, and Meng Sangyu breathed a sigh of relief.

　　I didn't expect that I would be in this situation, and the person who could be by my side and try my best to help me would be the person I was most afraid of and guarded against at the beginning. When Emperor Zhou Wu recalled the past, he couldn't help lamenting the impermanence of the world, and was even more grateful to God for allowing him to meet Sang Yu, which allowed him to get to know himself and the people around him again.

　　***

　　After the good news came, the reputation of the Meng family in the army and among the people of Zhou Dynasty was unmatched for a while. Talking about the Meng family, even the children in the market can sing one or two lines of songs praising their virtues. The legendary story of the Meng family's army defeating the barbarian army has become the most popular plot in Beijing. Storytellers tirelessly sung it, and the venues were full. There is no way, the Great Zhou has always emphasized culture and suppressed military power, and the people of the Great Zhou have always been oppressed by the barbarians, but today they are finally proud and proud. He killed the barbarians directly, his tongue was spinning when he said these words, he was so majestic and domineering! Anyone in the capital who says something bad about the Meng family will be attacked by the crowd.

　　In the imperial city, the bad luck of Bixiao Palace is self-defeating. Can someone win a battle if they are unlucky? Can you destroy a hundred thousand barbarian troops? Who spread this rumor? How outrageous! Concubine De was naturally released from confinement, and the Emperor personally came to comfort her and rewarded her with many valuable things. If Concubine De was not still recovering, she would have been his special favor for several months.

　　All the concubines in the harem stared at Meng Sangyu with blood-red eyes, especially Shen Huiru. If Meng Changxiong really returns to the court with a million-strong army, it will be difficult for the Shen family to pursue a great cause! Haven't you seen that even Mr. Li has been silent these days? He was also suppressed by Meng Changxiong's vigor! No, we must find a way to get rid of Meng Changxiong and De Fei!

　　Meng Sangyu also felt the undercurrent in the palace, and immediately strengthened the defense of Bixiao Palace. No one else was allowed to enter the main hall and study room, and everyone coming and going was also checked one by one. Bixiao Palace must be guarded before Meng's father returned to Beijing. It has to be watertight.

　　On this day, Meng Sangyu took Ah Bao for a walk in the garden as usual. The two of them played the game of picking up hydrangeas for a while, and then folded a few plum blossoms before returning to the bedroom happily.

　　Stepping into the palace door, Ah Bao ran to the couch, took a pair of embroidered shoes that the master loved to wear indoors, put them into his mouth, swung his little tail and walked to the master, put down the embroidered shoes, then raised his head and used it. The wet little eyes looked at the master.

　　"A Bao is so smart! He learned it after just one lesson! Huh~" Meng Sangyu's little sweetheart trembled at the cuteness of A Bao. She picked up A Bao and aimed at his little mouth with a few powerful snaps. kiss.

　　Abao narrowed his eyes and quickly licked his master's delicate lips with his tongue, his dog's face showing a satisfied expression. As time went by, the hope of returning to the body became increasingly slim, and his soul was firmly imprisoned in Abao's body and could not leave. Sometimes he even thought that it would be better to just stay with Sang Yu. Now that Meng Guogong is coming back soon, even if he doesn't wake up for the rest of his life, Meng Guogong can still protect Sang Yu. He will never die again in this life, so he can be A Bao with peace of mind.

　　The two of them played together for a long time, and when Nanny Feng came in with hot water to urge them, they reluctantly separated.

　　"Come, wash your little paws, and go to bed later." Meng Sangyu picked up Ah Bao, asked Nanny Feng to clean his paws, and then put him on the soft couch.

　　Emperor Wu of Zhou ran to the Kang table on the couch and picked up a plum blossom that Meng Sangyu had placed casually. After she finished washing, he immediately ran over and handed the flower to her hand.

　　Meng Sangyu took the flowers and somehow recalled the image of a handsome tango man picking up girls with roses in his mouth. Then he replaced the handsome man's face with Abao's dog face. That scene...

　　Puff puff... She hugged A Bao and fell down on the soft couch with a smile. Emperor Zhou Wu was so confused that he couldn't understand it.

　　"Oh, my Po is getting cuter and cuter! Po is my sweetheart, Spleen, Lung, and Kidney. I can't live without you for a day!" She said with a smile while rubbing Po's soft belly.

　　I can't live without you either! Emperor Wu of Zhou barked, and the dog's face covered with fluff turned red.

　　"Your Majesty, it's time to have dinner!" Grandma Feng directed a group of palace servants to prepare meals in the side hall next door. She felt helpless for the two mistresses and pets who were tired of being together all day long.

　　"Oh, here we come!" Meng Sangyu kissed A Bao's little head again, and then led him to the side hall. Passing by a huge vertical vase in the corner of the hall, A Bao's nose suddenly twitched and couldn't stop. gone.

　　He walked slowly over, sniffed the bottle carefully, and found a hint of smell that he had never smelled before. He was already familiar with the smells of Sang Yu, Nanny Feng and others. No fifth person was allowed to enter this dormitory without Sang Yu's permission, so there was no possibility of any peculiar smell. There is only one explanation. After Sang Yu and himself left, an outsider came into the hall!

　　Sneaking in without permission will definitely not do anything good! And this smell has a faint smell of rouge, so the person coming must be a palace maid. At this point in the analysis, Emperor Wu of Zhou had thousands of conspiracy theories running through his mind. His heart tightened, and he screamed at Meng Sangyu, while circling the vase.

　　"What's wrong with Abao? Stop screaming, your throat isn't healed yet!" Meng Sangyu walked over and reached out to cover his mouth.

　　Emperor Wu of Zhou opened her fingers, pointed at the vase with his little paws and screamed.

　　"Is there something wrong with this vase?" Meng Sangyu's expression became serious.

　　Emperor Zhou Wu nodded. This was the first time he had clearly shown in front of Meng Sangyu that he could understand human speech. But Meng Sangyu had already seen the clues and was not surprised. He only looked around the vase and then went to the side hall to call Nanny Feng, Yincui and Bishui who had come to serve the meal, and sent away the other idlers.

　　"Turn the vase over and let me see what's inside. Abao just kept shouting at the vase. I'm afraid the vase has been tampered with." Meng Sangyu said in a deep voice.

　　The vase is as tall as a person, with several Ruyi bamboos inserted in it. It is filled with water half a person's height, so it is not easy to move it. Meng Sangyu selected two more absolutely loyal eunuchs who had been placed in the palace by Meng's father and asked them to help.

　　The vase was overturned to the ground, and the water that had been in it for a long time was turning yellow. It flowed slowly in the hall, and a small stuffed doll rushed out with the water, covered with silver needles that shimmered in the cold light.

　　Seeing such evil things, Grandma Feng and others' expressions changed greatly. Meng Sangyu held A Bao in his arms, stepped on the water and walked over, leaning over to check the puppet. The pupils of the man and the dog shrank for a moment at the same time, and a trace of horror could not be suppressed on their faces, because there was a column of words written in cinnabar on the puppet, which was the birthday of the current Holy Emperor Zhou Wu.

　　Cinnabar is waterproof, but the handwriting is still bright and bright, which stings the eyes of the two masters.
