The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 347 Sheng Xiangjiang

Shengguo Mansion, Yongfan Garden.

In the middle of the yard, a wooden chair with a windshield is placed in the middle, and several small stoves for barbecue are placed around the chair, and the stoves burn high-quality exquisite tribute charcoal.

Mrs. Zheng, who had put on a thick cloak and a thick cloak, was sitting on the wooden chair at the moment.

On both sides of her, there were dozens of servant girls standing on each side.

Some of them light up the lamps, some hold the stove, some hold hot pots, and some hold cotton padded clothes.

Ever since the housekeeper asked the servant girl to deliver the message, Mrs. Zheng made the servants in the garden get ready.

No matter what the situation of her husband and children is abroad, all she can do at this time is to guard her home without thinking too much, and wait for her husband and children to come back.

In order to prevent someone from climbing over the wall and entering the crowd, Zheng ordered the servants of the family to gather in the courtyard, and the servants in the outer courtyard and the women in the inner courtyard crossed patrols.

Then, she asked Xiaoyao to bring all the weird things that Sister Yuan had collected.

So the walls and corners of the mansion were sprinkled with various institutions.

There are mechanism ropes that instantly lock the wrist when you press the mechanism, and then are either hung on the wall or thrown into the big net by the joint mechanism; there are mechanism boxes that are thrown with iron thorns when you touch it; When you arrive, you will be sprayed with lacquer or chili powder, and so on.

The number and variety of these institutions made Zheng feel a little bit dumbfounded while seeing the increase in security.

How did that little girl figure it out!

As soon as her side was ready, someone came over from the small kitchen carrying a few pots and a stove.

The head chef, the wife and the chef, together with the maids and servants who helped the kitchen, carried spatulas and knives, expressing that they would guard Yongfan Garden with the main family.

"Don't worry, ma'am, it's okay if the thief doesn't come. If he does come, we'll have enough hot oil and hot pepper water!"

Hearing what they said, Zheng's mouth twitched in relief.

I always feel that these honest servants are often influenced by Sister Yuan.

Her side was well prepared, and the sea has been calm since then; while Anhetang's side is full of turbulent waves and raging waves.

"Nie Yi!" Sheng Guogong was sitting in the hall in armor, and the big knife weighing more than one hundred catties in his hand hit the ground heavily, causing the ground to tremble slightly.

He glared at his second son, who was tied up with five flowers, and the beard on his chin stood up with anger.

"You were supposed to be an official in the Guangfu at this time, how did you return without an order?! How dare you sneak into the capital and have something to do with the former Qi? How dare you bring the rebellious army to touch your own mansion?! You know that my Shengguo mansion lasts for several years. For a hundred years, generations have been loyal! How dare you discredit your ancestors!"

Sheng Guogong said all this in one breath, but the more he said, the more angry he became. If he didn't have reason, he wished he could kill this unworthy descendant!

Seeing that Sheng Xiangjiang wished he could eat his father, he kept suffering.

Shizi Sheng Xiangya saw his father's anger billowing out one after another, keeping his anger at full level at all times, he felt a sense of purpose in his heart, and silently looked at his second brother who was kneeling in the hall.

"Father! Father! You listen to your son's defense!" Sheng Xiangjiang quickly kneeled up to Sheng Guogong, wanting to hold his father's thigh to defend, but he didn't want to let his father kick him out just as he hugged his thigh.

Immediately, he didn't dare to think about whether he was ashamed, so he got up quickly, and said loudly with tears all over his face: "Daddy! My son will never dare to associate with the rebellious army! My son came back quietly, just happened to meet the rebellious army, so why did he lead them the way?" , It’s just a stopgap measure! What you did was to invite you into the urn! Dad, if it weren’t for this, your son would either have died by the street at this moment, or he would have become a hostage, let them threaten you!

Daddy!You believe me!Believe in your son!The son has no intention of disobedience!The reason why the son came here without an edict and quietly entered the capital was for King Qin to escort him! "

"Escort by King Qin?" Sheng Guogong sneered, "Don't you think that I am old enough to let you be deceived? If you confess honestly and make atonement, I will tie you up to the imperial court, and I will help you to bear the crime; if you are delusional If you cheated and didn't repent, I will deal with you first, and take your dead body to the imperial city to confess!"

Sheng Xiangjiang shuddered when he heard the sound, he could hear the seriousness from Sheng Guogong's cold words.

Sheng Xiangya, who had been watching from the sidelines, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at his father: "Father..."

"Shut up!" Sheng Guogong didn't think that the eldest son wanted to intercede for the younger brother, so he looked over with a sneer and said, "At this time, you don't just want to keep the hereditary position as Duke, do you?"

"My son doesn't dare." Sheng Xiangya bowed his head.

"Hmph!" Sheng Guogong continued to look at the shivering second son, and asked loudly, "Say! Tell me everything you know!"

"Father...Father, Father." Sheng Xiangjiang looked at Sheng Guogong tremblingly, and glanced outside the door from time to time.

"Your mother just reported illness and said she won't come to see you!"

Seeing that his second son still wanted Chang to intercede, Sheng Guogong couldn't help being extremely disappointed. He slapped the table and yelled angrily: "Sheng Xiangjiang, listen! There are not enough people in the mansion at the moment. Brother Sun Shu, the heir of the Duke's mansion, you My younger brother's two legitimate sons, your third younger brother and sister Yuan are not in the mansion! And I would rather lose them than look for them, why? Only for the loyalty and responsibility that have been passed on for hundreds of years by Sheng Guogong's mansion!"

Sheng Guogong pointed at his second son tremblingly, and said angrily: "All the guards in the mansion came out, and only the young servants who were skilled in martial arts were left to guard. This means that the Sheng Guogong's mansion and the imperial city will live and die together!
The three dynasties of Yan, Chen, and Chu were transitioned. Although the name of the country was changed, it was handed down in one continuous line. My Sheng family guarded this territory, protected the people here, and protected the authentic royal family!

But now Qi counterattacks, A Rong is coveting, and Nu Erhan wants to take the opportunity to occupy the land of Great Chu!Only by going all out and being loyal to the emperor and serving the country can the Sheng family be worthy of the glory that has been passed down for nearly six hundred years!

If you dare to be disrespectful, the Sheng family will not let you stay!If you still do not repent, Sheng Xiangjiang, Lao Tzu will not only remove you from the family tree, but also sacrifice you to the flag to make up for the sin of the Sheng family raising you, an unworthy person! "

"Father, father! Don't! Really don't want to! Listen to me!" Sheng Xiangjiang was scared out of his wits by the cruelty in his father's words. He didn't care about this and that, and hurriedly took out the playbook from his arms and handed it to him Daddy, "Look, father! My son is really not lying!"

"Huh?" Sheng Guogong signaled the butler to take the memorial.

Sheng Xiangjiang was so anxious that he didn't wait for Sheng Guogong to take a closer look, so he finished speaking in one breath: "Father, your son's second daughter, Sister Han, you know! She is your sixth granddaughter! Ever since I came to Guangfu with my son, She often has nightmares! At first, my son thought it was because the climate was unacceptable, but after several tests, her nightmares can accurately predict the future! My son has benefited a lot from this! But since the beginning, her dreams have always been There are many related to the chaos in Kyoto!
Although the son was suspicious, but the sky was high and the emperor was far away, the son was not sure to track down.Until the first half of the year, Sister Han's dream became more and more clear, and the son borrowed the matter of the eldest daughter and Ji and asked her to come back with her, hoping to see if it could be clearer. of!How dare such a secret letter son be handed over to others?Only by rushing day and night and never leaving your clothes can you feel at ease. "

"Oh?!" Sheng Guogong was startled when he heard the words, and then looked at him suspiciously, "You really mean what you said? Are sister Han's dreams true?"

"This..." Sheng Xiangjiang bowed his head a little guilty, "It's all the same before, but this time... the time for the rebellion to launch has been brought forward."

When he said this, Sheng Guogong believed him a little: "Since you have known the reason in the previous report, why didn't you mention it when you returned to Beijing to report on your work last year?"

When Sheng Xiangjiang heard this, his already bowed head became even more drooping.

Seeing this, Sheng Guogong laughed angrily: "You want to take credit for the feudal lord?!"

"Father! I, my son, my son also want to add luster to the family!"

"Don't talk about it! You and I will go to the palace to meet the saint!" Sheng Guogong didn't want to listen to him anymore, he put the memorial book in his arms, stood up, ordered two servants to follow, and asked the housekeeper to find Sheng Han .

"Father, including Sister Han, there are three of us, and we only bring two housekeepers... Isn't it enough for the chaos outside?"

As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, his father slapped severely: "Now, how many people are you going to bring into the palace? Do you have any brains!"

Sheng Guogong snorted fiercely with a long knife in his hand, and walked away.

……

Sheng Han of the second bedroom was spinning around in the boudoir restlessly.

"Why is the time advanced? Shouldn't it be before the hunting parade?"

She bit her fingernails nervously and shivered a little: "I just laughed at Sheng Yuan's words that people with short calves can't reach their prey, so it's... no way! No way! This happened many days ago, it can't be related! "

"Could it be that Princess Yongping launched an attack in advance?" Sheng Han suddenly raised his head, remembering the legend in his previous life that Princess Yongping took the opportunity to assassinate the prince and count his sons.

"Could it be... related to Princess Yongping?"

While she was thinking wildly, she suddenly heard a knock on the door, and she was so frightened that she fell to the ground.
