Chapter 369: The true meaning of the nephew and young master of the Meng family
The next day, He Jin still came to the door with his son. Don't look at what Zhou Ang said yesterday about being open-minded, but if He Jin really takes it seriously, then he is really stupid.
The Zhou family only has such a son, and I don't know what the baby has become on weekdays. Otherwise, it would not have made Zhou Cai such an arrogant and domineering virtue to do whatever he wanted.
Therefore, He Jin is here, no matter who is right and who is wrong, as a subordinate, this is the attitude he must have. What's more, after talking to his son yesterday, he also found something interesting, which might interest Zhou Ang.
Besides, the matter of the nephew and young master of the Meng family, Zhou Ang specially ordered it yesterday, and he had to give a clear reply.
"Brother He, the official said it yesterday, don't take it to heart, you ...... That's it, Brother Kai, get up, get up. β
He Jin pointed at him, Zhou Ang pretended to be displeased and complained, and then turned his head to He Kai who was kneeling on the ground and helped him up with his own hands.
He Kai didn't move, peeked at He Jin, and fell into Zhou Ang's eyes without a trace, Zhou Ang's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he snorted softly.
He Jin hurriedly restrained the anger on his face, and scolded He Kai: "Little brute, didn't you hear the words of the commander? β
He Kai's face was terrified, he got up in a panic, and bowed down to thank Zhou Ang. The father and son are pretentious, and the end is seamless. If Su Mo saw this scene here, he would inevitably sigh: Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills. These two are both actor-level wrists.
"Okay, it's a trivial matter, don't take it to heart. Well, let's go to the back to find Yingjie, between brothers, it's just a big deal. Patting He Kai's shoulder kindly, Zhou Ang smiled as if he had a point.
He Kai bowed, looked at his father He Jin and nodded with a smile, and then bowed to the two of them again, and then turned around.
"Governor, it's all clear. After waiting for only He Jin and Zhou Ang to be left in the hall, He Jin took a step forward, quickly refilled Zhou Ang's cup with a jug, and said in a low voice.
In the host's house like this, as a guest, he rushed to carry a pot to pour water, which was not allowed according to the etiquette system. However, there are only two exceptions. One is that the relationship between the host and the guest has reached a certain level, and there is no need for special politeness between each other;
The other is that the upper and lower levels are particularly distinct, and as a subordinate party, they are shameless and flattering to their superiors.
Obviously, He Jin's situation does not apply to the first situation, and it is obvious that he flatters Zhou Ang with shamelessness to show that he is actively moving closer to Zhou Ang.
Zhou Ang just smiled and shook his head, but he didn't stop it. He sat down on the main seat, pointed to the chair next to him, and motioned for He Jin to sit down.
"Oh? He took a sip of the teacup and asked slowly.
He Jin owed a debt and said with a smile: "Meng He, Meng Ying's distant nephew, a native of Tongzhou." This time I came to Ningxia, saying that I came to the province. However, according to the investigation, the identity of this person is not false, but the intention is very debatable. β
Zhou Ang's hand holding the teacup froze, raised his eyes and looked directly at He Jin, indicating that he asked.
He Jin had a smile on his face, and said in a low voice: "According to investigation, this young master of the Meng family has been to the Yang Mansion a few days ago. β
"Yang Mansion?" Zhou Anghuo's eyes widened, "Which Yang Mansion?"
He Jinyin smiled and nodded, "That's right, it's that Yang Mansion." Governor of Shaanxi Ma Zheng, Governor of Shanxi, Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate Imperial History Yang Yiqing, Lord Yang. β
Sincere!
The teacup in Zhou Ang's hand fell on the desk with a soft sound. The expression on his face changed again and again, and his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.
Yang Yiqing is notoriously stubborn, and he will never have any possibility of colluding with them. Therefore, Zhou Ang and others were angry and jealous of it. If it is a simple Mengjia, although it does not want to conflict with it, there is no need to be afraid. But now that the nephew and young master of the Meng family are involved with Yang Yiqing, he has to be cautious.
You must know that what they are planning at this moment is only in the layout stage, and it is far from the time when it can be launched at any time. If there is a hint at this moment, what awaits them will be a monstrous disaster, and there is no possibility of luck.
Moreover, as the nephew and young master of the Meng family, he was able to enter and leave the Yang Mansion, does this mean that there is any collusion between the Meng family and Yang Yiqing? And what are these two parties going to do when they collude together?
When he arrives at Zhou Ang's position, what he thinks will naturally not be so naΓ―ve, and it is really just a normal exchange between the two families. Not to mention, he had never heard of any rumors that the Meng family and Yang Yiqing had any special friendships before.
The Meng family has always been very low-key in Ningxia, although they have a good relationship with most of the noble and wealthy families, but they are only good, and they have never shown a special friendship with any family.
Yang Yiqing is not to mention, he is high all day long, and he is proud and proud. Not to mention the Meng family, it is the Anhua Palace, and he Yang Yiqing also looks like he loves to answer, showing a posture of rejecting people thousands of miles away.
Courtiers don't make friends with vassal kings, this is the rule, and Zhou Ang naturally understands it. But for Yang Yiqing's attitude, Zhou Ang can clearly feel that it is definitely not because of this, but really disdainful. Yang Yiqing disdains the king of Anhua.
And now, it is such a person, and suddenly he shows his closeness to the Meng family, and Zhou Ang can't help but think about it.
"Can you find out the reason?" he gently clasped the table and thought for a while, then turned his head to He Jin and asked.
He Jin smiled bitterly and shook his head, seeing that Zhou Ang's face was not very good-looking, he hurriedly said: "However, the children have found out one thing." One of Yang Yiqing's nieces came to Ningxia a few days ago and now lives in Yang's mansion. Well, it is said that he arrived on the same day as the nephew and young master of the Meng family. Someone was outside the city that day, and saw them talking to each other. However, it is not known exactly what was said. β
"Huh?" Zhou Ang was stunned when he heard this, and the fingers that were clasped on the table stopped suddenly, and his face became thoughtful.
"You mean there is ....... between them" Leaning slightly, he looked at He Jin hesitantly.
He Jin shook his head and said, "Commander, this, I really can't get my position." However, according to the people who saw that scene that day, it seemed that the two sides were not very enthusiastic, and the young lady in the Yang Mansion had a cold face from beginning to end, and she pretended to be a man. The two sides only spoke a few words briefly, and then Miss Yang left alone. But that Meng He seems to be quite reluctant, maybe ......"
At this point, he stopped and didn't continue. As a subordinate, it is most taboo to add subjective opinions, which will often mislead the superiors. If you guess correctly, but once you say it wrong, you can't say that it is a thankless effort, and you will end up full of people.
Therefore, He Jin would never make such a mistake. At most, it is to leave a suspense, as for what Zhou Ang thinks, whether he will follow this prompt or not, it is none of his business.
Of course, Zhou Ang understands the Tao and does not blame it. He just waved his hand and thought about it again.
He Jin didn't say anything more, sat quietly upright, bowed his head and drank tea, and the hall was silent for a while.
After a long time, Zhou Ang let out a sigh of relief, raised his eyes to look at He Jin, and said indifferently: "Brother He, judging from the current report, it seems to be a bit of a phoenix." I just don't know, is this play the work of the Meng Gongzi himself, or the idea of the Meng family behind him?"
He Jin didn't answer this question, but just straightened his sitting posture again. He had worked with Zhou Ang for many years, so he could naturally hear if he was really asking him. At this moment, Zhou Ang seemed to be asking him a question, but in fact it was just a self-question.
This is a habit of Zhou Ang, and it also shows that in fact, Zhou Ang has probably made a similar decision in his heart. And what he needs to do is not to answer, but to wait for the task that is about to be assigned.
Sure enough, Zhou Ang didn't say anything about his silence, but continued to take care of himself: "If the old man is not mistaken, this matter may also be the intention of the Meng Gongzi himself, but there is no will of the two principals behind it. Otherwise, with Yang Yiqing's temperament, how could he allow that kid to enter the room in a grand manner?"
Speaking of this, he stood up, paced a few steps in the hall with his hands behind his back, and continued: "Perhaps, this is what Yang Yiqing meant. Yang Yiqing is a conceited person. Although he is a civil servant, he always wants to open up the border and make contributions. The Meng family has soldiers in their hands, but they are not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. If you really want to do it with strong means, as long as the Meng family insists on not admitting it, whoever comes will be helpless. But if the two families have a relationship of in-laws, then everything will be different. Wonderful, wonderful! I didn't see that Yang Yiqing had this flexibility. Marriage, though?"
He muttered, his steps stopped, and a bit of sarcasm appeared on his face. "Then I can't say, who will marry whom in the end. β
"That's it. Zhou Ang thought to himself about this, and suddenly turned to He Jindao.
He Jin immediately got up and listened respectfully.
"In the past few days, you have been so and so, so and so ......." Zhou Ang nodded with satisfaction, approached He Jin's ear, and commanded in a low voice.
He Jin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then a gleam flashed in his eyes, and he nodded again and again. In the end, he hugged his fists and praised: "The commander's clever plan.......!
He said this as if he couldn't find the right adjective. But Zhou Ang seemed to like this, with a smug look on his face that could not be concealed, and he smiled.
At the same time, in the backyard of the Zhou Mansion, outside the room of Zhou Cai, the eldest son of the Zhou family, He Kai frowned slightly, listening to the constant cursing inside, and occasionally accompanied by the sound of porcelain and other things shattering from time to time, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a sneer. But then it quickly disappeared, and his face made a helpless expression, and he raised his hand to the two family members outside the door.
The family knew it, hesitated slightly, bowed, turned around and pushed the door in.
In the house, there is a mess as far as the eye can see. Zhou Dagongzi was disheveled, his eyes were bloodshot, and his mouth kept cursing in a low voice, like a crazy trapped beast.
After one night, it was clear that the aphasia had finally healed. But the fire in my heart is getting stronger and stronger. Why? Why was he bullied, and he was the one who was punished in the end? Why was he grounded? Shouldn't he have immediately helped himself to catch that damn Meng family boy, and then cut and cramped to vent his anger?
And, and that damn He Kai! How dare he do that! He betrayed his friendship and betrayed his trust. Damn it! They're all damned!
Zhou Gongzi was furious, and the more he thought about it, the more he hated. He felt like he was hurt, well, his friends had betrayed him, and his mother didn't love him anymore. He had a madness that wanted to destroy everything.......
