  Chapter 243 Bastard's first counterattack! Cheng Guofu rebelled?

  In the hall, the lights are bright.

  On the main seat directly above, sat the eldest princess Nangong Huoyue in a fiery red dress with a majestic face.

  On her left, sat a middle-aged man wearing a pale gold python robe.

  The middle-aged man was tall and tall, with a fair face and beardless, handsome appearance, looking gentle and elegant, with a gentle smile on his face.

  This person is the envoy sent by Kyoto this time, Nangong Yufeng, king of Nanguo County.

  According to his seniority, he is also the uncle of the eldest princess Nangong Huoyue.

   But not to mention the county king, even the prince, with the status and power of the eldest princess, can only sit below.

  After all, the eldest princess is not only the lord of the Huoyue Kingdom, but also the general of Dayan Tiance, and the sister of the Emperor Dayan.

  During the period of the first emperor, her status had already surpassed all the kings.

   At this time, the two were chatting about what happened in Kyoto recently.

  Other guests, even Meng Jinnan, the lord of Mo City, could only bow down and speak in a low voice.

  Cheng Guofu's eldest lady, Mrs. Wang, was dressed in luxurious clothes, and was slightly bowing, welcoming the guests who entered the hall with a smile on her face.

  When she saw Qin Wenzheng and his wife coming in, her eyes lit up, and she immediately greeted her warmly: "Master Qin, sister of the Song family, welcome, welcome."

  Qin Wenzheng just nodded politely.

Song Ruyue immediately said with a smile on her face: "Sister Wang, congratulations, you really raised a good son, and at such a young age, you have earned back your wife's life. Hey, it's not like my sons, none of them useful."

  Wang smiled and said modestly: "Where, everywhere, it is all the great kindness of the Holy One, and Chang Tian is just doing his duty faithfully."

  Song Ruyue pursed her lips without a smile on her face, said nothing more, followed Qin Wenzheng into the hall, paid homage to the eldest princess and the king of Nanguo County, clenched her fists tightly in her sleeves.

  The eldest princess just nodded lightly and did not speak.

The king of Nanguo smiled gently and said: "Master Qin still looks young. When Xiao Wang went to Longhu Academy some time ago, he met your eldest son Qin Lang. That young man is very good. According to the teacher in the academy, he is now He has already broken through to the late stage of a martial artist, and he is really young and promising."

  Qin Wenzheng quickly expressed his gratitude and humility.

  Song Ruyue's depression and aggrieved heart finally subsided a little.

The king of Nanguo laughed again: "Master Qin, are you the only ones here today? Xiao Wang heard that your Qin family and Lord Luo's family are married. When Xiao Wang went to visit Uncle Jing Wang last month, he heard him mention this. This matter. The marriage contract between your two children was witnessed by Uncle Jing, right?"

  As soon as these words came out, not only Qin Wenzheng's expression changed slightly, but Wang's expression, who was standing beside him with his head bowed, also changed.

  Luo Yannian, who had just brought the guests in, also heard this, and quickly stepped forward and said respectfully: "His Royal Highness, the officer has already written to inform Prince Jing of this matter, and Prince Jing already knows about it."

"Oh?"

  The King of Nangong County smiled when he heard the words, nodded and said: "That's good."

  Seeing that the faces of the two families were a little strange, he guessed that the matter might not be that simple, so he didn't ask any more questions in front of so many guests.

  The guests came in waves one after another.

  Song Ruyue entered the back room, chatting with other women, discussing in a low voice about the fact that Mrs. Wang was bestowed as the imperial wife, all of them were full of envy.

   "Hey, the sons of the family are striving for success, and they have all mixed into the palace and become a celebrity in front of the Holy One. The future is limitless."

   "And her second son, I heard that he is the most promising candidate to be admitted to Longhu Academy in Mocheng next year..."

"Hey, look at those two sons, and look at my incompetent son. I wish I could go back and beat them with a stick now. Tell me, they are both human, with the same head, one mouth, and two arms. Two legs, why are the two sons so competitive?"

   "Cheng Guo Mansion will really flourish in the future. I'm afraid that our small city of Mo will not be able to accommodate this giant Buddha."

   "Jiyue, why don't you speak? Feeling uncomfortable?"

"Hey, look carefully, we can't compete with others, this generation can't compete, and the next generation can't compete even more. Your Qin family and Cheng Guofu are in-laws and family friends. As long as you hold this thigh well, in the future you The Qin family will definitely regroup and follow it to prosperity."

  Song Ruyue had a dull face and didn't answer.

  A woman suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Ruyue, I heard that your family, Qin Chuan, will also take part in the entrance examination for Dragon and Tiger College next year?"

  As soon as the words came out, the other women looked at each other and understood.

  Dare to feel that what they just talked about hurt this one.

One of the women quickly comforted: "Ruyue, we are just talking casually. Next year, Dragon and Tiger Academy will enroll students. So many warriors will participate. No one is sure who will win now. Your family Qin Chuan works so hard, next year will definitely There is also hope."

   "Yes, yes, yes, there is definitely hope. That kid Chuan'er works so hard, even if he doesn't pass the exam next year, he will still have a chance the year after."

  The other women comforted each other.

  Song Ruyue forced a smile on her face.

   At this time, all the guests outside have arrived.

  The king of Nanguo stood up, took out the imperial decree, and prepared to declare it.

  In the hall, except for the eldest princess Nangong Huoyue who just stood up and bowed slightly, everyone else knelt on the ground.

  When the women in the back room heard this, their faces changed, and they hurriedly stood up from their chairs, walked out quickly, and knelt down on the ground in unison.

  The guests outside the door also quickly knelt down.

  The entire Chengguo Mansion fell silent immediately.

  The king of Nanguo opened the edict and began to read the will of the Holy One aloud.

The general idea is that Luo Changtian, the eldest son of the Chengguo Mansion, devoted himself to his duties, was loyal, killed assassins, guarded the safety of the palace, etc., and mentioned the achievements of the ancestors of the Chengguo Mansion. For my Madam...

  After reading the imperial decree, the king of Nanguo County took the peacock crown specially made for Mrs. Gaoming from the eunuch, walked up to the kneeling Wang, and handed it over.

  Wang took it with trembling hands, tears welled up in her eyes, her forehead touched the ground, and she trembled gratefully, tearfully grateful.

  Luo Yannian also brought Luo Yu and other people from Chengguo Mansion to kowtow to thank him.

  Nanguo County Wang Wen said: "Madam, please wear the colorful crown. The Holy Majesty also bestowed Peacock Xiayi and Shuangfeng Xiapi. Tonight is the most glorious moment for Madam. You must wear these things to show the emperor's favor."

   "Holy Lord Long En, the women are so grateful!"

  Ms. Wang trembled and kowtowed again, holding the colorful crown in both hands, trembling with excitement.

  Nanguo County King smiled and said: "Now she is not a woman of the people, but a woman of destiny. Madam, get up quickly, the imperial edict has been announced, so there is no need to kneel."

  Ms. Wang was so excited that her whole body became weak, her tears blurred, and she couldn't stand up for a while.

  Seeing this, Luo Yu hurriedly stood up and walked over, helped her up, then took the colorful crown from her hand, and carefully helped her wear it on top of her head.

  The other women kneeling in the hall were envious when they saw this scene.

  Song Ruyue's eyes were red, her lips trembled, she gritted her teeth, and tried to tell herself: I don't envy, I don't envy, I don't envy at all...

   "Ma'am, these are Xiayi Xiapi, please wear them too."

  Nanguo County King pointed to the plate in the eunuch's hand and said.

  Ms. Wang bowed her head and thanked again in a trembling voice.

  Luo Yu bowed and picked up Xiayi Xiapi from the plate, helped her put it on, and said softly: "Mother, you are so beautiful today."

   Wang's eye circles suddenly became hot, and his face was full of tears. He couldn't help but knelt down and kowtowed to thank him again.

  Nanguo County King hurriedly helped her up, and said to the other people who were still kneeling on the ground: "Get up."

  All the people got up one after another.

  Princess Nangong Huoyue took a look outside and said, "Master Luo, can the dinner begin? I have business tonight, so I need to go back early."

  Luo Yannian hurriedly said respectfully: "His Royal Highness, wait a moment, the dinner will begin soon."

   Immediately, he quickly ordered the butler to serve people, and began to serve wine and food, while personally arranging the seats of each guest.

   The table in the middle of the hall is naturally the eldest princess and the king of Nanguo.

   Accompanying this table are several nobles with titles.

  Qin Wenzheng and his wife were also arranged here.

  The eldest lady Wang, wearing a colorful crown and Xiayi, stood respectfully behind Nangong Huoyue, ready to pour wine for her herself.

  The King of Nanguo smiled and said, "Madam Luo is the protagonist today, how can she stand and serve wine? Let the servant girl come, Madam, please sit down."

Wang Shi was about to resign modestly, when Luo Yu came from the side, took the jug in her hand, and said with a smile: "Mother just sit down and have a few drinks with His Royal Highness the Princess and His Royal Highness, and my son will pour it for you. liquor."

  Wang glanced at him tenderly, and had no choice but to sit down next to the eldest princess, but only dared to put down half of her buttocks, lowered her eyebrows pleasingly, and still maintained a cautious and respectful expression.

  Nangong Huoyue suddenly raised her head to look at Qin Wenzheng and said, "By the way, Mr. Qin, your family's number one talented woman in Mocheng, Miss Qin Er, didn't come tonight?"

  As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes turned to Qin Wenzheng and his wife.

  Wang Shi, who was supposed to be the spotlight tonight, suddenly twitched the muscles in the corners of his eyes, and looked over.

Nangong Huoyue smiled and said, "Seventh Uncle loves to communicate with literati and scholars, and he also likes poetry the most. After coming to Mocheng today, I heard about your second Miss Qin's amazing talent, and she was full of praise. I really want to meet you. Is it Uncle Seven?"

The king of the Nanguo County next to him smiled and said, "The poems written by Miss Qin Er are indeed amazing and brilliant. Xiao Wang once read them when he was reading the Song family's rebellion files in the capital. When he came to Mocheng today, he heard about other poems. First of all, it is indeed a bit itchy, and I really want to see the demeanor of the most talented woman in Mocheng, your residence."

  Qin Wenzheng was a little embarrassed: "This... little girl..."

  He turned his head, looked at Song Ruyue beside him, and said in a low voice, "Why haven't Wei Mo and the others come yet?"

Song Ruyue was also anxious, and when she was about to stand up and go back to the mansion to call in person, Wang suddenly laughed and said, "His Royal Highness does not know, the second Miss of the Qin family is very weak, and she coughs continuously when she is caught by the wind and cold, and she even coughs until she falls into a coma. , at this time the night is cool and windy, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient, so I didn't come."

  Nanguo County King frowned and said: "So that's the case. If that's the case, Lord Qin, then don't bother."

Mrs. Wang hurriedly said respectfully: "His Royal Highness, when you were in the palace, did you ever meet my parents? The child hasn't come back for two years, and he writes a letter every half a year. Hey, I am a mother. ..."

  Before he finished speaking, a servant's voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Master, Madam, the second Miss Qin and the uncle of the Qin family are here, which table do we need to put them at?"

   Before Luo Yannian could speak, Nangong Huoyue said, "Let them come in and sit here."

  Luo Yannian immediately said in a deep voice, "Go quickly."

  The servants retreated immediately.

  The muscles at the corners of Wang's eyes twitched, and he stopped talking.

  Luo Yu stood behind him, squinted his eyes, and looked outside the door.

   not long.

  The second Miss Qin, who was dressed in snow-white fox fur, lowered her head slightly and walked in slowly with the support of Qiu'er.

  Luo Qingzhou bowed his head and followed behind.

  Song Ruyue got up and went to support her daughter, and said to the two: "Go and meet the eldest princess and His Royal Highness."

  Luo Qingzhou and Second Miss Qin immediately bowed their heads and paid homage to them.

  Nangong Huoyue nodded slightly, but did not speak.

  Nanguo County King stared at Miss Qin Er for a few times, and couldn't help frowning and sighing: "Master Qin, your daughter is indeed a natural beauty, soft and dignified, and charming. It's a pity that this body is indeed a little weaker."

  Qin Wenzheng sighed, and said: "This child has been peeing like this since he was a child. He has seen too many doctors and taken countless medicines, but he has not improved."

   Nangong Junwang sighed again: "It's a pity, it's a pity, Xiao Wang has a son, and he hasn't married yet..."

   Speaking of this, he noticed the young man behind him and asked, "Is your daughter married?"

  He seemed to remember that the servant came to tell the time just now, saying that the second miss of the Qin family and the uncle had arrived. Could it be that this young man is the husband of the most talented woman in Mocheng?

  Qin Wenzheng said: "Not yet."

  Junwang Nangong was stunned for a moment, and when he was about to speak, Song Ruyue quickly answered, "His Royal Highness, although we are not married yet, we will soon be married. My daughter already has a sweetheart, and it is estimated that she will be married next year."

  As soon as the words came out, someone standing behind the mother and daughter bowed and looked up at her.

   Wang suddenly laughed and said: "Sister Song, who is Wei Mo's sweetheart, won't you introduce it to His Royal Highness?"

Song Ruyue ignored her, and pointed to someone behind her respectfully: "His Royal Highness, this is my son-in-law, the husband of my eldest daughter. Of course, he has another identity, he is the **** son of Master Luo of the Chengguo Mansion .”

  As soon as these words came out, Wang's face changed suddenly.

   Nangong Junwang showed a look of surprise on his face. He took a closer look at the two parties, and thought about the embarrassing attitude of the two families when he mentioned the marriage before, and he suddenly understood.

  He smiled lightly, didn't ask any more questions, and said, "Sit down, let's eat first, Xiao Wang is also a little hungry."

  Song Ruyue didn't dare to say any more, she helped her daughter to the table and sat down.

  Qin Weimo was about to take his seat, but he quickly turned his head and said, "Brother-in-law, come here quickly."

Just as Luo Qingzhou was about to walk over, Mrs. Wang suddenly scolded with a cold face: "Qingzhou, didn't we teach you the rules when you were in Chengguo Mansion? Now the eldest princess and His Royal Highness are here, you are a bastard, a Son-in-law, dare you sit down?"

  As soon as these words came out, the hall fell silent.

Luo Qingzhou glanced at her, then at Luo Yu who was standing behind her, continued to walk forward, stood behind Song Ruyue, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Madam, Qing Zhou didn't say that he would sit down, Qing Zhou Standing here, pouring wine and tea for father-in-law, mother-in-law and second miss, isn't that also allowed?"

   Wang's expression darkened immediately: "How dare you be stubborn?"

  Luo Yu's face darkened and said: "Qingzhou! Why did you talk to your mother? Don't forget your identity?"

Song Ruyue stood up suddenly, looked at the two of them and said, "We have already mentioned Qingzhou's identity last time, he is now a member of our Qin family, and he is here tonight as a guest at your Chengguo Mansion, not to be reprimanded by you." Why, the guests who came to your Chengguo Mansion can't even talk?"

A stern light flashed in Wang's eyes, and said: "Of course you can speak, but it depends on who he is speaking to. He is just a concubine with a humble status. Even if you are from the Qin family, he is just a son-in-law. Today, the eldest princess Sitting here with the king of Nanguo County, ask him yourself, is he qualified to be presumptuous here?"

Miss Qin Er suddenly said: "Mrs. Wang, you said that my brother-in-law is presumptuous. May I ask where he is presumptuous? First, he did not sit in front of the eldest princess and the county king like you, and secondly, he did not sit in front of the eldest princess and the county king like you. Your Highness doesn't know how to be polite in front of you, and reprimanded someone with a straight face. San didn't spit at the dishes and wine glasses in front of His Highness the Eldest Princess like you. Madam Wang thinks, is my brother-in-law presumptuous, or are you presumptuous?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang's whole body trembled in anger, the colorful crown on her head shook, she couldn't help it anymore, she gritted her teeth and said, "Second Miss Qin, you are the most talented woman in Mo City, I am not as eloquent as you , I am an elder, and I don't want to quarrel with you. I just want to ask you a few questions, what's his last name? Is he my master's son? Did he come from my Chengguo mansion to your Qin mansion?

  Second Miss Qin looked calm: "So what?"

Mrs. Wang sneered, helped the colorful crown on her head, stood up, and said coldly: "Since he is, then I have the right to teach him a lesson today! He doesn't know the rules, he has no education, he is presumptuous in front of me, and disobeys his elders." !According to the family rules and laws, he should be punished!"

   After finishing speaking, she suddenly glared angrily, and shouted: "Luo Qingzhou! Come here and kneel down!"

  All eyes were on the young man behind Song Ruyue's mother and daughter.

  Luo Qingzhou looked at her hideous face, and clearly remembered in her mind that her own mother often heard such reprimands.

   "Kneel down!"

   "Bitch! Can't even make tea?"

   "Hillbilly! It really is an idiot from the mountains! Get down on your knees and admit your mistake!"

   "Study? Just your son, also wants to study? He is a slave now, and he will be a slave all his life! What, you still want to rely on your son to turn over and suppress me? You are dreaming!"

   "Slut! Whore! If you seduce my master, you should beat your mother and child to death with sticks! Kneel for me until dawn!"

   "Kneel! Kneel! Kneel..."

  At this moment, Luo Qingzhou's head has been echoing these two vicious words, as well as that ferocious and vicious face, and that thin and pitiful figure...

  Luo Yu saw that he was ignoring his mother, and seeing the Eldest Princess and everyone watching, he immediately shouted angrily: "Luo Qingzhou! Come here and kneel down for my mother, and apologize!"

  Luo Qingzhou slowly raised his head, looked at him, and suddenly said: "Luo Yu, do you think you have the right to order me now?"

  As soon as these words came out, Luo Yu immediately shrank his pupils, opened his eyes wide, and clenched his fists.

   This was the first time he heard this humble, humble, cowardly **** call him by his first name! It was also the first time I saw such a disrespectful attitude from the other party!

  He couldn't believe it.

  At this moment, he suddenly had an illusion that the person in front of him suddenly looked a little strange.

   "Little bastard! Are you going against the sky?"

  Ms. Wang suddenly gritted her teeth and shouted angrily. The colorful crown of Mrs. Gaoming on her head and the cloak on her body trembled slightly.

  Song Ruyue was about to stand up, when a hand suddenly stretched out beside her and grabbed her.

  She froze for a moment, then turned her head to look, her daughter still looked calm, but at some point, two touches of blood red appeared on her pale face.

   "I'm not against the sky."

  At this time, Luo Qingzhou suddenly replied calmly, looked at the woman with a livid and somewhat ferocious face, and said word by word: "Ma'am, it's you, it's you who have turned the country against the heavens."

Wang was about to grit his teeth and shout angrily, and then he said calmly: "You and the Wang family of the Zhang family are colluding with the fugitives of the Song family who committed the crime of treason, and are preparing to rebel. Now that the evidence is convincing, and the evidence is all there, this should be the case. Is it against the sky?"

  As soon as these words came out, the whole table was shocked!

  The king of Nanguo stood up from his seat, his face suddenly changed.
