No, gentlemen also guard against

Chapter 205 Su Guer's Ambition
Yilanxuan, in the west wing study where Ouyang Rong left.

In front of a tea table.

It is full of people at the moment.

But no one spoke to break the silence.

Li Xian stood on the spot in a daze, holding the tea table with his palms, and the tea set on the table made some "clucking" sounds from time to time, and was trembling endlessly.

Wei Mei stood beside her husband, holding his arm, her face was a little sad, as if she had also been reminded of some memories of the past.

Behind him, Su Dalang was silent.

Xie Ling Jiang Longxiu stood still, also silent.

Su Gu'er walked to the door silently, clutching the fabric of the cuffs tightly with her bare hands, raised her chin slightly, and looked towards the direction of the courtyard door where Ouyang Rong left.

Su Gu'er could quite understand Father's mood.

At the beginning, my father had just ascended the throne and respected his grandmother Wei Shi as the empress dowager, but my father's foundation was weak, and his essence was emptied, and all important affairs of the court depended on the mother-in-law.

So my father had no choice but to reuse Wei's relatives, trying to build his own power in the court. In this regard, grandmother Wei let him go, just like Zheng Zhuanggong back then, deliberately indulged in temptation, and finally led to the outbreak of conflicts.

At that time, my father made a series of personnel appointments, promoted the father-in-law of the Wei family at the speed of light, and finally wanted to promote him to be a servant, which is one of the prime minister positions in the Zhengshitang, but was opposed by the ministers of the court.

My father is the son of heaven, and the government order was blocked, so he was naturally furious, and impulsively blurted out, even if he gave the world to his father-in-law, he would be willing to give it to his father-in-law. Could it be that he still grudges the position of servant?
Such angry and impulsive words naturally caused an uproar in the ruling and opposition parties, and became a fuse. Grandmother Wei took the opportunity to conspire with all parties to abolish father as King of Xunyang, and set up the fourth son, Lilun, as the new one. emperor.

After that, all the government affairs fell into the hands of the grandmother Wei, and later, he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and changed his name to Zhou...

Although more than ten years have passed since the abolition of the emperor that changed her family's fate, it has left a great inner shadow on my father.

Su Bao'er once heard from her mother that her father often woke up suddenly in the middle of the night, terrified and dreaming, and threw himself into her arms, crying bitterly.

Su Gu'er didn't think it was funny how cowardly Father was.

He may not have been a qualified emperor back then, but he was definitely a qualified husband and a qualified father.

Her unmasked grandmother, on the other hand, was the opposite.

Su Gu'er turned her body slightly, and glanced at the note in Li Xian's palm.

She stepped forward, taking advantage of the gap between Wei Mei and Su Dalang to comfort Li Xian, and took the note from the latter's hand.

Xie Lingjiang glanced sideways at the maverick Su Gu'er.

Su Gu'er quietly lowered her eyes, and her eyes paused for a while on the line of writing that belonged to Ouyang Rong.

"So mother and child are as good as ever... Is Zheng Boke Duan Yuyan... Are there really people in this world who are like gods and prophets?"

The little girl with bright red plum blossom makeup on her forehead murmured softly in her heart:
"Ouyang Lianghan... As expected of the noble man in that proverb, he is also... the noble man of my family..."

Unlike her father's focus on Lixian, Su Gu'er, like Ouyang Rong, also thinks that the sentence "then mother and child remain the same" is the most delicate and expressive.

By the way, there is also "Zheng Boke Duan Yuyan", this exquisite allusion.

If the subsequent development of the situation is exactly as what Ouyang Lianghan said just now, it is exactly the same as what they overheard, Empress Wei will ease up with the mother and son, reactivate her home, return to Luoyang, divide the Baoli faction, and ease the conflict between Liwei...

Then, the ups and downs of her family's ups and downs are indeed very suitable for "Zheng Boke and Duan Yuyan".

Because Empress Wei, like Zheng Zhuanggong who dominated the Spring and Autumn Period, is impeccable in terms of imperial power.

But in terms of family affairs and family ties, they are not ashamed by historians and future generations.

No matter how much the two outstanding achievements spread the word about the younger brother, uncle Duan, and the son Li Xian who is aggressive, arrogant, and arrogant, he is not like a gentleman.

No matter how you pretend to be innocent, pretend to be forced to make a move.

Both of them couldn't explain why they, as brothers and mothers, didn't discipline and stop them in time?

If you teach and don't change, then it's natural to make a move.

But if you don't teach and punish, you can learn from it.

In the final analysis, the two still regarded their younger brother and son as an enemy in their hearts, and did not take into account the brotherhood and mother-child relationship at all.

The actions of the other party that provoked anger and resentment were exactly in line with Duke Zhuang and Empress Wei's intentions. If they wanted to play hard to catch, they could eliminate their opponents in a fair and honest manner.

Brother is not brother, brother is not brother, mother is not mother, son is not son.

Nothing more than that.

And the word "like the beginning" in the last sentence "the mother and the child are like the beginning" is even more wonderful.

According to historical records, Mrs. Jiang was frightened when she gave birth to Duke Zhuang.

Because Zhuang Gong came out feet first, which is a typical dystocia, Mrs. Jiang named Zhuang Gong Wu Sheng, which means reverse life. It is conceivable that she hated Zhuang Gong when he was born.

However, Mr. Zhuang has been stared at since he was a child, and the relationship between mother and child is naturally disgusting. This is where the word "like the beginning" is intriguing.

As for why Duke Zhuang made such an unnecessary move, he came out of the underworld to see his mother, showing that the contradictions eased, and then turned around and "mother and child are as good as ever".

For such a king, there is nothing more than "fame and fortune" behind him.

Maybe it was due to the consideration of filial piety after death, or maybe it was based on the interests of the time. After all, marriages between royal families of various countries were common in the Spring and Autumn Period, and Mrs. Jiang naturally also had her mother's family...

But just like right now, Su Gu'er overheard Ouyang Lianghan's assertion that the grandmother might send someone to take her family back, return to Luoyang, and inherit the emperor's heir.

Just for her power and interests.

Empress Wei is so similar to Zheng Zhuanggong thousands of years ago.

Su Gu'er pinched the creases on the note repeatedly with her fingers, and remained silent.

My father also said not long ago that my grandmother hated him since she was a child, and loved Princess Changle and Xiang Wang Lilun, because the fortune teller said that my father looks like Taizong, and my grandmother's feelings for Taizong should be very complicated...

In any case, she doesn't know about her father who pays attention to feelings, but for her grandmother, if it is in the interest of her, it would not be surprising that after many years of breaking up, she would perform "Mother and Child as Ever" in public.

Su Bao'er took a deep breath, and kept speculating about the thoughts of the grandmother who had never masked her face.

After all, the future fate of their family depends entirely on the grandmother's wishes.

And what Ouyang Lianghan said just now made her heart, which was a little dead, rekindled her heart.

In front of the door, the little girl with plum blossom makeup, who was evaluated by Li Xian as looking like her mother's queen, suddenly felt a little curious:
What does it feel like for a woman to hold power?It can make that gray-haired grandmother still clinging to it like a fascination.

Is it that men in the world will kowtow when they meet me, or that all Qi practitioners in the world will lower their eyebrows when they see me?
Su Gu'er turned her head to look outside the door, with a pair of slender and long eyes looking north towards Luoyang, which is also the direction of Meilu Garden.

It seemed that there was a certain handsome figure of "Flick off your clothes after something has happened" in her heart again, she couldn't help but sigh in admiration:

"I don't know how he found such a wonderful allusion, is it really just flipping through it casually...

"No, it can't be such a coincidence.

"It seems that you have already seen the truth, right? You chatted with me before, but you didn't know anything about it.

"It seems that either you treat me as an outsider, or you treat me as a naive girl, lacking and resourceful..."

Su Gu'er gritted her teeth slightly, her eyes were looking at the clouds in the sky, slipping away quietly under the dazzling sun above her head, a strange idea suddenly appeared in her heart:

"If one day, such an excellent man as he can obediently fall under my skirt, and treat me with obedience, what will it be like.

"Speaking of which, how much power do you need to buy and subdue him, is grandma like that enough..."

The chest corset was obviously not tight, but Su Bao'er suddenly felt a little out of breath, and her cheeks were surprisingly hot.

As soon as a strange desire to win or lose arose, it filled her chest uncontrollably.

For some reason, at this moment, I suddenly want to prove something to a guy who likes to pretend to be confused and ignore her, and I want to see him be surprised or look down...

For the first time, Su Baoer tasted the taste of power.

Although only a distant thought.

……

Ouyang Rong didn't know that just after he left, the junior sister's study room was so lively that it could hide so many people, including a stunning young girl with a heart and ambition bigger than the sky.

As for the latter, if you know it, you will probably shake your head and smile, saying, "It's quite a second grader."

"Strange, what are these merits?"

Ouyang Rong returned to the Meilin courtyard with question marks all over his head.

When he was drinking tea in the junior sister's study, he was completely confused by the sudden increase in merit, so he left Yilanxuan and returned home.

Ouyang Rong didn't say goodbye to Xie Lingjiang either, mainly because he was afraid that his junior sister would let him drink tea again, and she would be cute and coquettish for the last meal, and then she would say a lot of words from him.

Anyway, later in the evening, Ouyang Rong would go to her to discuss the case, so he left without saying goodbye.

Meilu Court, study room.

After dismissing Ye Weilai and other maids, Ouyang Rong closed the door tightly, lay on the armchair, frowned and muttered:
"Could it be that the things I revealed to my junior sister will affect her and the teacher in a good way, so that's why I rewarded so many merits? It makes sense.

"But these things haven't happened in a short period of time, why did they feed back a sum of merit so quickly? Could it have had some impact?
"But at that time, Junior Sister was the only one there. Could it be that my image in her heart was more powerful and mighty, so I gained more merit? Junior Junior Sister, little Junior Sister, why is it like an experience bag?"

Consciously picking up a lot of wool from his junior sister, Ouyang Rong smiled embarrassedly, and sighed again:
"In any case, the increase in merit at least proves that today's words that shouldn't have been said have some positive meanings, and it is not a waste of worry."

Ouyang Rong rubbed his face, his eyes brightened slightly: "Go and see how much merit you have saved."

As soon as he said it, Ouyang Rong went to lock the door, turned around and returned, closed his eyes and sank into the lake of heart.

After a while, he came to the familiar cloud tower and entered the familiar space inside the tower.

The ancient bronze clock, the small wooden fish, and the white four-sided background, everything remains the same.

Only the line of blue-gold font above the little wooden fish has become a little different from before - it has skyrocketed a lot:

[Merit: 380 one]

"Hey, so many, it broke through [-]?"

Ouyang Rong bowed his head and calculated:
"Well, after exchanging that wrong merit last time, there were 280 eight left, but a few days ago, we managed to prevent the flooding of Yunmengze, and the merits suddenly increased by nearly [-].

"Also, I just showed my holiness and prophecy in front of my little junior sister, and my merits were surprisingly increased by six or seven hundred.

"In addition to some other measures to benefit the people in the Longcheng County Government these days, the sporadic increases have also increased a lot...

"A total of 380 ones. Then this wave is absolutely stable. You can leave in two days. After exchanging the blessings of the Pure Land Palace, it is more than enough."

Ouyang Rong nodded in satisfaction.

"Speaking of which last time, the peach-colored strange fortune report was nothing short of a pit...

"After exchanging this blessing, I have been pestered by that little girl from the Su family a few days ago, and I can meet her wherever I go. It's really evil."

Ouyang Rong suddenly realized:
"Good guy, the blessings are pink? Life is peachy, right? Let's just call you peach blossoms and good luck. The little girl’s interest actually costs so much merit? How is this calculated, or is this girl not simple?”

In the lonely merit tower, Ouyang Rong stood in front of the blue-gold font, mumbling for a while.

Not long after, he shook his head, glanced at the still motionless blessing clock, turned and left the Gongde Pagoda.

Ouyang Rong opened his eyes, returned to reality, got up and left the study, and went to the office of the Longcheng County Government.

In the evening, Ouyang Rong returned to Meilu Garden, just after he wiped his face, he met Su Dalang who had been waiting for a long time in the courtyard, and invited him to the Su residence for a banquet.

It was said that Uncle Su caught another big fish today, so he specially invited the neighbors to eat the fish.

Ouyang Rong smiled and nodded: "Okay, okay, I get it, I know that Uncle Su caught a big fish, it's not easy..."

In the yard, it was dark, and Ouyang Rong didn't notice the specific expression on Su Dalang's dark face.

Ouyang Rong went to the Su Mansion with ease, but got a very unexpected news on the way.

"What? Junior sister left in the afternoon, where did she go? Why didn't you say hello to me when you went out?"

Ouyang Rong frowned, originally planning to come to find someone in the evening, but now the younger junior sister went out suddenly, which caught him off guard.

Su Dalang heard the sound and explained: "Lianghan, Miss Xie said that she is going to Jiangzhou City, and then stop by Longhu Mountain to do some business."

"Longhu Mountain?" Ouyang Rong stopped, puzzled, "What are you going to do in Longhu Mountain?"

"I don't know." Su Dalang shook his head and glanced at Ouyang Rong again.

Ouyang Rong was hesitant to speak, but then he realized that the young junior sister suddenly went to Jiangzhou City, maybe she was going to see her mentor Xie Xun, and it should be related to the things he said in the afternoon, and it might feel unsafe to send a letter, which is normal .

As for why he went to Longhu Mountain, Ouyang Rong didn't know, maybe he did something along the way, he shook his head.

"By the way, although Miss Xie left in a hurry, she specially told us to leave some things for you."

"what?"

"Miss Xie put them all in Yilanxuan's study... let's go, Lianghan, we'll talk about it later, and pick them up after dinner. Father and the others are still waiting for us."

Ouyang Rong could only nod.

After a while, Ouyang Rong arrived at a spacious hall of the Su Mansion. He had just sat down at the table when he suddenly felt something was wrong with the atmosphere.

Ouyang Rong looked around.

Uncle Su is warm and hospitable, Aunt Wei is gentle and generous, Dalang Su is honest and honest... and Xiaomei Su is holding a white cat in her arms, staring at the skirt with her head down, she is not sure what she is thinking in a daze.

In the empty hall, apart from delicious food and wine and the endless stream of maids, only he and the Su family were the only ones.

Wait, why is Su Xiaomei here? The family members are present. Could this be a private family banquet?But why invite him as an outsider?
Ouyang Rong asked calmly:
"Uncle Su's, what important guest did you invite tonight in your residence, do you need to sit with me?"

I saw the master of the Su family waving his hand:
"It's nothing, everyone is here, and we can start the meeting."

He cheerfully instructed the maid beside him, turned to Ouyang Rong and said kindly:
"Suddenly remembered that my nephew lived next door alone, and he was just recovering from a serious illness. It seemed so deserted, so I invited you to have a meal together. Don't worry, my nephew, tonight is just a gathering of relatives and acquaintances, no outsiders are invited..."

Ouyang Rong's eyelids twitched.

Don't treat him as an outsider?
