Raising a Dog is Better than Palace Fight Chapter 41

Chapter 41 Provincial relatives (1)

　　After the Yong'an Marquis Mansion's marriage certificate was approved, all major concubine clans above the first-class concubine handed over their marriage certificates one after another. Perhaps it was because the emperor was in a good mood that he actually granted the permissions one by one. For a while, some people in the harem were excited, some were envious, and some were stimulated to become ambitious. Once you reach the imperial concubine position, you can enjoy the honor of returning to your hometown. This is the dream of all women who are locked in the palace.

　　The date of the wedding was determined by Qin Tianmonitor to be November 24th, and it would arrive in two days. The concubines who heard the news were slapped in the face by the emperor's second imperial edict before they could be happy. The emperor will personally accompany the concubines back home to visit their relatives. Each of the concubines was supposed to leave the palace at 9 o'clock, but they were told that they need to leave one hour in advance, which is Yin time. It's the middle of winter, and it's still the coldest time of the day. It's the coldest time of the day. Both the concubine and the waiting family members will be greatly tortured. But Concubine Liang set off two hours later than all the concubines, which was Chen hour, when the sun rose from the east and the temperature warmed up. Qin Tianjian said that at three o'clock in the hour on November 24th, the phoenix will fly, bringing good luck and good fortune.

　　At the most auspicious moment, and with the emperor personally accompanying her, as soon as the news came out, all the people of Zhou knew that the good concubine must be the best candidate to succeed her. And while receiving the order, Liang Fei fainted, and soon there was news that she was one and a half months pregnant. The emperor was overjoyed, and various rewards poured into Zhongcui Palace like water.

　　Regardless of how many porcelains were smashed in each palace, Meng Sangyu was indifferent to the news and only looked forward to going home to see his brother and mother. If she goes back earlier, she can spend more time with her family. All favors and honors are just clouds in her eyes.

　　Two days passed quickly, and it was still dark, so the procession of relatives set off in great force.

　　The biting cold wind blows in from time to time through the gaps in the curtains of the sedan chair, making people shiver, and the breath they breathe out turns into white mist and floats in the air. Nanny Feng stood up and closed the sedan curtain. She caught a glimpse of the guard leader on a horse outside the curtain, and a smile appeared on her cold face.

　　"Your Majesty, Captain Wang escorted us back." She whispered as she pulled the brocade quilt covering her master's knees for warmth.

　　Meng Sangyu held an exquisite and small heater in his hand and smiled happily when he heard this. This child has grown up and is promising. She was indeed right.

　　"I heard that he refused to surrender to Grand Master Shen and is now very ostracized in the Forbidden Dragon Guard. He has taken care of himself, which is good. Don't look at the Shen family's glory for a while, but they are just the moon in the mirror. Sooner or later, something will happen. One day it will be shattered. If he dares to harm my father, I will expose his conspiracy and bring him down. Let's see." Meng Sangyu smoothed the hair around his ears with a golden armor sheath and smiled coldly.

　　"Your Majesty, would you like to meet Captain Wang privately and seek his help? If chaos breaks out in the capital, the sword will have no eyes." Aunt Feng asked worriedly.

　　"Even if I don't tell him, if there is chaos in the capital, his first thought will be to protect me. I believe him." Meng Sangyu smiled softly, "Stealing dragons and turning into phoenixes, defiling the harem, such huge scandals, the more he knows about them. The less you treat him, the better. The Queen Mother is not a kind person. Once the situation in the capital is stabilized, there will definitely be a big purge to preserve the royal secrets. Nanny, after sending you out of the palace, you must forget all these embarrassing things. Do you know?"

　　Meng Sangyu looked at Nanny Feng with a very stern look in her eyes.

　　"I know, my dear, I don't want to leave you." Nanny Feng begged, then her face turned pale, "Then, my dear, will you also be raped by the Queen Mother..."

　　"The Queen Mother is cruel, but she is also the most soft-hearted. I took the initiative to serve her, and the thousands of Meng family troops behind me were my bargaining chip. Seeing that I was valuable, she would not touch me. Besides, my My life experience is exactly the same as that of the Queen Mother back then. Do you still remember the ink painting screen that the Queen Mother sent from Qianfo Mountain on the day I was first crowned Imperial Concubine? There is a high mountain, half a cliff, and a majestic green pine on the cliff. This Queen Mother is in the past. Paintings are metaphors for people, allowing me to understand my own situation. My presence aroused her memories of those years, and she did not want me to repeat her same mistakes. It can be seen that the Queen Mother still has good intentions towards me. With this With a trace of kindness, I am sure that she will not be willing to kill me. The worst result is that she will always accompany the Queen Mother with a green lantern. For others, loneliness is unbearable, but for me, it is undesirable." Meng Sangyu sighed, with no hesitation in his eyes. Measures, only one school of indifference. After two lives and two lives of fighting, she was already tired.

　　"Your Majesty, I will accompany you to accompany you all the time. I am getting old, and I will like to live such a quiet life for the rest of my life." Grandma Feng's eyes were flushed.

　　"No need, grandma will go to my mother after she leaves the palace and take good care of her for me." Meng Sangyu closed her eyes and leaned back, obviously not wanting to talk any more.

　　Nanny Feng was helpless and secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, staring at the gilt copper stove on the table in a daze.

　　Unknowingly, the Duke's Mansion has arrived, and a deep male voice from outside the curtain said, "The Duke's Mansion has arrived, please get off the sedan."

　　Meng Sangyu opened his eyes, carefully arranged his hair and clothes, and slowly stepped out of the sedan with the support of Granny Feng.

　　When she met the excited eyes of the young man waiting by the sedan chair, she was stunned, and the corners of her lips rose slightly. The two of them just made a mistake and passed each other so fast that no one had time to reflect.

　　The man looked at the girl dressed in gorgeous clothes, stepping gracefully onto the red carpet of the Duke's Mansion, and accepting the kneeling worship of everyone in the mansion. His emotions were complicated and difficult to distinguish. In despair, he seemed to feel that someone was staring at this place. He looked around but found nothing, and could not help but frown. The Duke's Mansion was airtightly surrounded by the guards he sent on three levels, inside and outside, making it impossible for anyone to approach. With this thought, he put aside his doubts and quietly watched the girl's back disappear behind the vermilion door.

　　What Wang Huashan didn't know was that the Duke's mansion not only had many guards sent by him, but also countless secret guards hidden in the dark. Emperor Wu of Zhou and Yan Junwei were already lurking on the roof of the main hall of the Duke's Mansion, relying on the cover of night to stare closely at Meng Sangyu who was getting out of the sedan chair.

　　The night was still dark, and even with the illumination of countless lanterns, the woman's face was still a bit blurry and difficult to distinguish, but the purple first-grade court dress with a peacock pattern outlined in gold wire was particularly eye-catching. The woman got off the sedan slowly, and Emperor Wu of Zhou's breathing gradually became heavier with her steps. He clasped the rubble under his palm hard, and the rubble made a slight crackling sound, almost breaking.

　　"Your Majesty, calm down, in a few hours you will be able to see the empress openly." Yan Junwei comforted in a low voice.

　　Emperor Zhou Wu looked at him with a serious look, his dark eyes concealing countless violent emotions, but he finally relaxed. Yan Junwei was stunned by his abyss-like gaze and swallowed secretly. It’s not easy for the emperor to wait half the night and blow the cold wind all night, just to take a look at this!

　　Meng Sangyu had already stepped through the gate, walked into the main hall surrounded by everyone, and accepted the obeisances of his family. Emperor Wu of Zhou placed his ears against the rubble and listened carefully to the movement below. If you can't see anyone, it's good to listen to the sounds.

　　In the main hall, everyone from the Meng family walked up to the Concubine De and kowtowed one by one. Meng Sangyu's makeup was extremely gorgeous and luxurious. She put her hand wearing a gold-plated armor on the table and raised her chin slightly. The awe-inspiring nobility made people's scalp tingle.

　　Aunt Wen led a pair of children and knelt at her feet obediently. No matter how jealous they were, they could not hide their fear of this former legitimate daughter of the Meng family.

　　"Mom, please get up quickly." Meng Sangyu personally helped Meng's mother, Lin, and raised her hand to avoid her brother's kneeling. She then said to Aunt Wen and the other three in a lukewarm tone, "You guys, get up."

　　On the roof, hearing her clear and melodious voice, Emperor Zhou Wu's expression was dazed for a moment, and then he curled up the corner of his mouth and smiled.

　　"Thank you, empress." Everyone thanked them, then stood up and took their seats.

　　After casually chatting about some trivial matters at home, Meng Sangyu dismissed everyone and helped Meng's mother to the side hall to prepare for a private conversation. Emperor Wu of Zhou and Yan Junwei on the roof also moved their positions.

　　"Mom, the matter of father's disappearance is not simple." Meng Sangyu got straight to the point and immediately attracted Meng's mother's attention.

　　"Think about it, where is Jade Dragon City? It faces the Yalong River in front, and has Longpan Mountain in its back. The terrain is extremely dangerous. If you want to go around the back of Longpan Mountain to conduct a surprise attack without being detected, unless the barbarian army has the ability to reach the sky. Meng Sangyu paused for a moment, then continued after seeing Mother Meng nodding.

　　Yan Junwei on the roof was already attracted by her remarks. He imitated Emperor Wu of Zhou and placed his ears against the rubble, listening quietly to her analysis.

　　"The barbarian army does not have the ability to reach the sky, but they have the ability to collaborate with the enemy. Without the help of internal ghosts, how can they safely bypass so many sentries and go directly to our grain storage camp? Yulong City is under the jurisdiction of the Gansu Admiral. This matter The matter has nothing to do with Xie Zhenghao. The emperor gave him the rank of general just after his father disappeared, and he led the commander-in-chief to attack the barbarian imperial court. There may be a bigger conspiracy in this. If Xie Zhenghao really communicates with the barbarian army, he has great potential Maybe he pretended to be defeated and took advantage of the chaos to remove his father's influence in the army and seek to seize military power."

　　After Meng Sangyu finished speaking in a low voice, Meng's mother gasped. Yan Junwei on the roof was already full of surprise. What a smart woman, locked in a deep palace, able to see things so clearly with just a few doubts, no wonder she could make the emperor so obsessed.

　　Emperor Zhou Wu narrowed his eyes slightly and listened intently to the clear voice that he had not heard for a long time.

　　"Then what should we do?" Mother Meng asked in shock.

　　"Don't worry, mother. You should write a letter to Uncle Meng Liang immediately, and be sure to deliver it to him before the war begins, telling him to find a way to kill Xie Zhenghao and seize the commander's seal. Uncle Meng Liang must also have doubts, but he will definitely have concerns. , your letter was put into his hands just to dispel his worries. Although his father is missing and the morale of the army is greatly shaken, this battle will never be lost. The barbarian army is at the end of its war effort, and the only way to defend the imperial court is with one breath. It was now the twelfth lunar month of winter, and they were short of food and clothing. They were tired of it. They were hungry and cold and would be defeated without a fight. After destroying the barbarian imperial court and making great achievements, who cares how Xie Zhenghao died? Feel free to blame the barbarians. That's all. History is written by the victors, and the fate of the losers can only be forgotten." Meng Sangyu patted the back of Meng's mother's hand, her calm and calm voice was very soothing, and her words were even more exciting. Something happened to my father, and the Meng family still has thousands of men in the Meng family army, as well as uncles and uncles. The Meng family will not fall!

　　On the roof, Yan Junwei was already stunned. What a woman with a broad mind and extraordinary vision. As a harem woman, her ideas coincided with those of the emperor. It was really not easy! Meng Guogong taught his children well! While sighing, he looked towards the emperor and gave a thumbs up.

　　Emperor Zhou Wu glanced at him, his face seemed calm, but there was an irresistible smile in his eyes, and a sentence came out in his heart that made him feel very happy - he doesn't have the wings of a colorful phoenix, but he has a clear mind.
