Dong Wenzhong asked his brothers to continue to greet the guests, and he followed Dong Shixuan to the back house and went straight to Mrs. Li's room. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info Halfway through, Dong Wenzhong tried to inquire what was going on, but Dong Shixuan just shook his head, and he had to wait a while, Dong Wenzhong was even more confused, and faintly a little uneasy.
There are also many female relatives in Mrs. Li's room who come to pay New Year's greetings with the man, and they are accompanying Mrs. Li to gossip at this time, which is peaceful and warm. As soon as Dong Wenzhong and Dong Shixuan entered the house, Mrs. Li could see from their faces that something was happening, so she instructed Dong Wenzhong's wife to accompany the women, confessed herself, and went into the back room with Dong Wenzhong and Dong Shixuan to talk.
Mrs. Li and Dong Wenzhong just sat down, and before they could open their mouths to ask, Dong Shixuan took out a post from his arms and solemnly handed it to Mrs. Li with both hands, his fingers still trembling slightly!
Mrs. Li was stunned, the Taoist priest has always been calm, why is she so out of shape today? took the post and looked at it, and suddenly trembled himself.
The words of four dragons flying and phoenix dancing came into view - Zhennan Wangfu!
Dong Wenzhong also saw these four words at the same time, and couldn't help but be taken aback, and almost slipped off the chair! In order to avoid a heart attack, I hurriedly took out the medicine bottle, stuffed a few pills into my mouth, and sent the tea into my stomach!
Mrs. Li's lips were open, her throat was clogged, her eyes were full of tears, and she couldn't speak for a while!
Dong Shixuan couldn't help but be excited, took a few deep breaths, and said calmly: "Grandmother, the king of Zhennan sent his henchman General Ma Fu to send this post, according to General Ma, the king of Zhennan arrived later, and this time he came to pay New Year's greetings to his grandmother, but he needs to hide his eyes and ears and not make a noise." ”
Since Mrs. Li was speechless, Dong Wenzhong asked, "Where is General Ma?" ”
Dong Shixuan said: "Back to my uncle, just outside, dressed ordinary, after a few words with my nephew, I walked into the distance, obviously I didn't want people to recognize me, and I just waited for the arrival of King Zhennan." ”
Dong Wenzhong said: "How did the king of Zhennan come? Which door to take? ”
Dong Shixuan said: "General Ma made it clear, if you want us to open the side door, King Zhennan doesn't want to alarm others." ”
Dong Wenzhong frowned, glanced at Mrs. Li, and stopped talking.
Mrs. Li slowly calmed down, opened the post and looked at it again, sighed, and said, "Is it really still here?" The king of Zhennan came to my Dong house so deaflyspily, he must have a plan. But...... It's time for the King of Zhennan to come, too. ”
Dong Wenzhong said cautiously: "Mother, the king of Zhennan has repeatedly shown kindness to my Dong family, and it seems that he has long planned to repay the favor, but the plan is far away. This time, I thought I might as well be polite with him, and ignored the rest. ”
Mrs. Li put down the post and said, "What do you mean...... No matter what King Zhennan says, won't you agree? ”
Dong Wenzhong nodded heavily and said: "Yes, the king of Zhennan has never hidden his whereabouts, but today he suddenly became abnormal, and he thought there was something to worry about." If what Er expected is not bad, I am afraid that it has something to do with the government, and the king of Zhennan seems to be interested in seizing power! ”
Mrs. Li's face was solemn, and she said in a deep voice: "Whose power is it to take?" ”
Dong Wenzhong immediately said categorically: "The power of the important ministers in the court, the king of Zhennan will take it!" ”
Mrs. Li was taken aback and said, "King Zhennan is going to return to the Southern Song Dynasty after marrying Princess Nangjiazhen, how will he take power?" ”
Dong Wenzhong said: "The king of Zhennan has used many great achievements to spread his wings among the government and the opposition, and there are many dependent disciples among the civil ministers and military generals. If the crown prince wants to succeed to the throne smoothly, he must get the help of the king of Zhennan, and Ahma wants to save his life, but the king of Zhennan can save him. The rest of the ministers, either intimidated by his obscenity or receiving his benefits, did not want to openly make enemies of the king of Zhennan, who now wanted to interfere in the affairs of the court, it was as easy as a hand! ”
Mrs. Li nodded slowly: "I see, but ...... Don't be in a hurry, listen to the intentions of King Zhennan first, and then make a decision. If you have the slightest doubt, you can refuse and not be taken advantage of by him. ”
Dong Wenzhong said solemnly: "Yes, mother." ”
Mrs. Li immediately instructed: "Shixuan, you go and open the east side gate, and wait there for the king of Zhennan, although he is your father's killer, but at that time the two countries were at war, and the swords and guns on the battlefield were blind, you can't blame him, you must not lose your courtesy." ”
Dong Shixuan gritted his teeth fiercely, bowed his head and said, "Yes, grandmother." ”
Mrs. Li said to Dong Wenzhong again: "You go to prepare refreshments in person, don't let others know, please invite King Zhennan to the secret room in the back, and I will go over and wait for the ride." ”
Dong Wenzhong said respectfully: "Yes, mother, son, I'll do it." ”
Although the Dong family has many talents and high-ranking officials, Mrs. Li still speaks at home, and no one dares to go against her wishes.
Dong Shixuan went out from the front door, found Ma Fu, and whispered to him what Mrs. Li meant, Ma Fu nodded and went out from afar.
Dong Shixuan went around to the east side door, ordered his family to open the sprinkler sweep, and stood quietly at the door, waiting for the world-famous king of Zhennan, who was also his father-killer, to come in person.
After less than a quarter of an hour, an unpretentious carriage slowly stopped in front of the door, and Mafu opened the door, jumped out of the car, and stood by the door with his hands down. Then, a handsome young man with an imposing momentum followed him and got out of the carriage, and Ma Fuluo bowed slightly.
Zhennan Wang Cheng Yue——!
Dong Shixuan's pupils shrank, his teeth clenched, his fists clenched, and his body trembled involuntarily!
It's hard to describe his mood, anger, fear, admiration, anticipation, and even some adoration, this most legendary person in the world is right in front of him!
Cheng Yue saw Dong Shixuan, smiled slightly, and said, "You are Dong Shunqing, right?" I've always wanted to see you, but today I got my wish. ”
Dong Shixuan remembered Mrs. Li's instructions, took a deep breath, and saluted: "Don't just meet the prince." ”
Cheng Yue smiled and said, "If we have something to say, let's go in and say, let's go." After speaking, he pulled his legs and entered the Dong family without the slightest hesitation.
Dong Shixuan secretly respected, didn't say much, led the way, and led Cheng Yue into the secret room of the back house. All the family members along the way have been sent away, and Cheng Yue has not met a single superfluous person.
The secret room is in the depths of the back garden, and you can only see an inconspicuous wooden door around the two plum blossoms. At the door of the secret room, Dong Wenzhong stood solemnly to welcome the guests, and when he saw Cheng Yue coming, he hurriedly bowed and saluted.
Cheng Yue smiled: "Yancheng (Dong Wenzhong's character) is tired, is the old lady there?" ”
Dong Wenzhong said: "Jiaci has been waiting for a long time, the prince is invited." ”
Cheng Yue nodded and walked into the secret room. The furnishings were simple and elegant, and an old woman of about seventy years old stood quietly in the room, with her eyebrows and eyes, simple and dignified clothes, her hair unkempt, and a polished mahogany cane.
Cheng Yue smiled, and before he could speak, Mrs. Li had already bowed deeply and said, "The old body is late, and the prince is blessed." ”
