Chapter 19: The King of Zhenxi

Sunset Cave. Cheng Zheng sat on the main seat in the hall, and was really dissatisfied with the thin pages in his hand, it is well documented that only a year ago, Yao Menghan suddenly appeared on the streets of Qingping County, behaved strangely, and after wandering for more than a month, he was accepted as a girl by a family. Because he was bullied by the big girl, he stopped doing it for a long time and made a living by cheating on the street. Three months ago, he was caught cheating, and Yuanxin came to the rescue, and they have been together ever since. A year ago, there was not a single word of news about Yao Menghan. "Is this the ability of the Hall Master of the Wind Chasing Hall to do things?" Cheng Zheng handed the secret letter in his hand to Lang Yue, who was standing aside with a white veil covering his face.

Chai Yin knelt on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head: "My subordinates are incompetent." ”

can wipe her traces so clean, the power must not be underestimated. Yingfeng? Yuan Chen? King Xiang? Who arranged for a mediocre-looking woman to approach Yuanxin, and still make Yuanxin so fascinated, I'm afraid there is a lot of article in this, Cheng Zheng thought to himself, "Are you sure she doesn't know martial arts?" ”

"Subordinate, you should be sure."

Chaiyin's answer obviously made Cheng Zheng even more angry, "The implication is that you can't be sure? ”

According to the investigation of her subordinates, there is no indication that Yao Menghan knows martial arts, and she clashed with Yingfeng's guard Lu Dingan on the first day she arrived in the capital, and she was rescued by Yao Luo. Of course, it is not ruled out that she deliberately hid it. Do you want to go down and test her? ”

Cheng Zheng vetoed, "No need! She either won't, otherwise she can hide so deeply, and she is also extraordinary, so she doesn't have to startle the snake. ”

Chaser replied, "Yes." ”

Cheng Zheng coldly ordered: "Bring Guan Mo to check together, the two halls can't come up with anything, you two will come up with a meeting." ”

"Yes." Chaiyin got up respectfully and took a few steps back before turning to go out.

Lang Yue said, "Doesn't the door master think that the master of the Windward Hall is a master of tracking clues?" ”

"Yingxun," Cheng Zheng said the name, "she has other uses." ”

Lang Yue guessed a few points, her eyelids drooped, and she couldn't see what expression was under the white veil.

"Where have Yao Menghan and Yuanxin gone these days?" Cheng Zheng asked Lang Yue.

"The four main streets of the east, west, north and south, the downtown area, the dim sum shop, the back ring mountain, just simply play with Yuanxin, nothing special."

Cheng Zheng asked her, "Are you sure it's just playing?" ”

"Subordinates are sure." Different from the vague answer of chasing the sound, what Lang Yue said was extremely positive.

"What do you think?"

"If she really approaches Yuanxin with a purpose, she will take action sooner or later, and we will wait." Lang Yue is confident.

Send someone to keep an eye on. Is Yingfeng and Min Che in contact? ”

Lang Yue reported, "Yingfeng hasn't been to Mingyue Xuan recently, and there has been no movement on the second prince's side. However, on the day Yuanxin came back, Yingfeng and Helan Jiarui met. ”

"Is that the day Yao Menghan and Lu Dingan clashed?"

"Yes."

"It was really lively that day," Cheng Zheng pondered, "Does Yingfeng want to use the power of the Helan family to help Min Che make a comeback?" ”

Lang Yue analyzed, "It's not impossible, the queen is originally from the Helan family, Helan Hong is the queen's own brother, speaking of which Helan Jiarui and the second prince are cousins." ”

"Min Che can't afford to provoke this country at all, the Helan family will never rashly agree, let's see their actions in the future."

"Yes, the prince can enter Beijing before noon tomorrow, and his subordinates will retire first."

Cheng Zheng nodded, "Go ahead." ”

Different from the humility and caution of chasing the sound, Lang Yue strode out of the hole.

The next day, the emperor personally went to the gate of the city to welcome the king of Zhenxi into Beijing, and the imperial forest army was on guard, stretching for several miles. It is rare for the people of the capital to see this scene, and they are pouring to the gate of the city in an endless stream, and Yao Luo does not dare to slack off before and after commanding. When the road is blocked, the street is cleaned up, the emperor's dragon chariot slowly arrives in the large team that hugs in front of the back, the body is carved with a dragon pattern, inlaid with gold and jade beads, and it is extremely noble. Followed by Yilin, Xiangwang Xu Qingsong, Cheng Zheng, Yuanxin, and Yingfeng, Yuan Chen, consuls of all sizes of the Yun clan, etc., all walks of life are in order, the Ming Yellow Dragon Banner is majestic and solemn, and the spectacle of the scene is really rare.

The carriage procession of King Cheng Fang of Zhenxi stopped at the gate of the city, and everyone bowed down to see the emperor.

"Flat," the emperor personally stepped forward to help Cheng Fang get out of the carriage, "Uncle Wang has worked hard all the way." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Cheng Fang is still physically tough and in good spirits.

Yu An got down from the carriage behind her, and Ying Ying bowed, "See the emperor, long live the emperor." ”

The emperor was kind and pleasant, "Hurry up, in a blink of an eye, Chengjia has become a big girl." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yu An got up and held the old man's other hand.

At this moment, the group of people who greeted Cheng Fang, except for Yilin and Xu Qingsong, the others knelt down one after another, "Welcome the King of Zhenxi." ”

"No courtesy, the old man has already resigned and returned to his hometown, and he still bothered you, and I dare not do it."

Xu Qingsong arched his hand and said: "The old prince has worked hard all the way, and I will wait for the time to greet him." ”

Cheng Fang and everyone briefly greeted each other, and the emperor personally helped Cheng Fang to get on the soft sedan chair and go to the palace in Zhenxi, and the others dispersed on the spot. Walking to the front of the house, the whole house was already waiting at the door, neatly and solemnly saluting and greeting, Menghan couldn't hide it, such a big pomp had already scared her half to death, honestly find an inconspicuous place to stand, how dare you have half a point of nonsense.

The emperor and Cheng Fang walked into the front hall under the hugs of a group of people.

"Uncle Wang, please."

"Your Majesty, please."

The two of them sat in the two main seats. Cheng Zhenghe sat down on both sides in turn, Yahuan served tea one by one, and Yuanxin and Yu'an had already taken the opportunity to escape. The emperor and the old man can't stop talking for a while, and they are all about governing the country, if these two brothers and sisters stay, it will be a punishment. And Cheng Zhenghe sat respectfully, relatively speechless.

"The emperor greeted him personally, and the old minister was really ashamed."

"Uncle Wang is polite, Uncle Wang treats me like a mountain, without Uncle Wang, I would not be where I am today." The emperor never called himself me before Cheng Fang.

Cheng Fang exclaimed, "The emperor's benevolence is my blessing." ”

"Uncle Wang can still adapt all the way?" The emperor cared.

"It's all good, there is Emperor Lao's concern."

The emperor also told Cheng Fang about the recent changes in the court, his own thinking on governing the country, and asked Cheng Fang's opinion on some major matters. What emperor is wise, there must be a good plan. What is at stake, the emperor must weigh carefully.

After the two talked about state affairs, and talked about family affairs, the emperor said, "Yishan can return safely this time, and Cheng Zheng is indispensable." The marriage between the two was in a hurry, and they didn't ask Uncle Wang in advance, and asked Uncle Wang not to blame. "The emperor really didn't have any arrogance in front of Cheng, and he spoke modestly and politely.

"It's up to the emperor to decide." Cheng Fang is naturally not a person who relies on the old and sells the old, and pushes everywhere to let the emperor take the idea.

Cheng Zheng and Yilin raised their heads at the same time, looking at each other, close to the end of the world, it is perfect to use it at this moment.

Yuanxin went to Qiushuang Courtyard to find Menghan, she was boredly throwing stones by the pond, Yuanxin asked, "Why did you come back, I looked for you for a long time, and I thought that you would stay a little longer when it was lively outside." ”

"Stay a little longer?" Meng Han shook his head again and again, "Scare me to death, such a big battle, how dare I stay outside." ”

Yuanxin teased her and gently pinched Menghan's nose, "Aren't you quite bold, why are you scared like a kitten at this time?" ”

"Can I be bold on such an occasion? Your Majesty, your grandfather, so many guards are holding swords and knives, and they are going to die, I am afraid that I will be pulled out and beheaded. By the way, isn't your grandfather the king of Zhenxi? Why did the emperor personally go to the city gate to greet him, and still call your grandfather Uncle Wang? ”

"Well, that's a long story. When the emperor ascended the throne, he was still a child, and the king of Xichi bullied our lord at a young age, and the villain was in charge of the court, and there were constant internal and external troubles. Grandpa led troops to pacify the Quartet, and in the regent of the court, he survived the most dangerous time of Dazhao, and kept the society stable. Grandpa personally took the emperor with his own hands, saying that until the emperor became an adult, grandpa returned the government to the emperor and turned to guard the western frontier. Therefore, the emperor has special respect for my grandfather, respects my grandfather as an uncle, and Grandpa Xu does not worship when he sees you. ”

"Oh, I see." Menghan nodded, "No wonder the emperor is so respectful to your grandfather, it seems that the emperor is still quite wise, in the history of my hometown, it is difficult for any emperor to tolerate others to control his own power, even if he is a great hero, the master of high merit will be eliminated by the emperor sooner or later." ”

"The emperor won't, the Yun clan has always been loyal to the royal family, and it is an indispensable force for the emperor, if you get rid of it, the country will shake twice."

"Oh, I'm talking to you about what I'm doing here," Meng Han shook his head, "We said that we wanted to stay away from the fighting, and we had a dull life, so why did we talk about imperial power." ”

"Second brother!" A crisp cry came from behind him.

"Yu'an, come quickly." Yuanxin waved at her.

Yu'an has a very delicate little face, her white and red face can be broken, and the two dimples are very charming when she laughs, and the rich girl's maintenance is good, Menghan sighed secretly (Menghan thinks too much, this has nothing to do with maintenance, okay?) He's only seventeen years old.) In close contact, Menghan always felt that Yu'an had a vague nobility and coldness different from the lively appearance, and it was no wonder that he was born in a family, which was reasonable, well, reasonable, Menghan explained himself.

Yu An asked curiously, "Second brother, who is this?" ”

Yuanxin introduced briskly, "This is my girlfriend, your second sister-in-law in the future." ”

"Hello, my name is Yao Menghan, it's a pleasure to meet you, little sister Yu'an." Menghan stretched out his hand to Yu'an.

Yu An obviously didn't understand Menghan's actions, and shrank back, "What are you doing with your hand?" ”

"Shake hands, shake hands and we'll know each other." Menghan took the initiative to shake Yu An's hand and shook it.

Yu An looked at Meng Han with a strange expression, "You're not from the capital, are you?" ”

"No, it's not."

"Then where are you from, it feels like you're weird."

"Do you believe me when I say I'm from another world?"

"Another world?" Yu An didn't understand, "What is another world?" ”

Come on, it seems that these two people have to talk for a long time, Yuanxin got up helplessly, "You talk slowly." ”

"Second brother, where are you going?"

"Get out for a walk."

"Take me, bring me, take me." Yu An ran over and grabbed Yuanxin's arm.

"Take me." Menghan echoed.

The three of them came to a tea shop, and Yu'an pestered Menghan to ask her to talk about "another world," Menghan crackled and said non-stop, Yuanxin was helpless, "Isn't this still something you chat with me about?" If you dare to love me, I'll take you out for tea. ”

The three of them came back at noon, and the emperor and Yilin had already left, and at this moment the old man and Cheng Zheng were sitting and talking.

"The heavy responsibility of the Yun clan is not easy to accept, if you are the king of Xiang, you must be assisted by Yuanxin." The old man said earnestly.

"Grandpa thinks Yuanxin is up to the task?" Cheng Zheng asked, Yuanxin was just a little hairy kid who was fooling around all day long in Cheng Zheng's eyes.

The old man nodded, "You are cautious and calm, this is your strength, but sometimes you need a little bit of understanding." Far believe that he is elf and eccentric, and he is undoubtedly the most suitable person to make up for you, and he is also the most credible person for you. Just like the nine-link when you were a child, you couldn't solve it with all your efforts, but you were split into pieces by Yuanxin, and the solution was completely and completely. But if Yuanxin is just blindly playing smart, it is not the material for big things, and together with you can be said to complement each other. If you succeed in convincing him to stay with you, it will definitely be in your favor. That's why Yuanxin wanted to go out back then, so I was so opposed. ”

"There's nothing wrong with him going outside and getting more informed." Cheng Zheng thought of the Phantom Array, and he didn't know how much more he had learned from Yuanxin.

The old man reminded, "Yuanxin has been in the field for so many years, if you want to keep him, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort." ”

"If I really want to stay, I have my own way. Just ......"

"Just what?"

"It's just that I don't know if dragging him into an environment he doesn't like will hurt him." After all, Cheng Zheng still feels sorry for Yuanxin.

"As a member of the Yun Clan, is it up to him to choose?" The old man disagreed.

"Okay, I'll think about it." Cheng Zheng nodded.

"Grandpa!" Yu An jumped into the hall, but Yuanxin didn't dare to step forward.

The old man scolded sharply, "What's wrong with you?" Don't come in yet! ”

Yuanxin only replied, and pulled Menghan into the hall with a hard head, looking at the old man's stern appearance, Menghan didn't dare to speak, he was secretly afraid in his heart, he had never seen Yuanxin so worried, it seems that this old man should have two times, be honest.

"Who is she?" The old man asked.

"The second brother said that she was my future second sister-in-law." Yu An replied with a smile, as if he couldn't see the old man's expression at all.

Yuanxin grinned, it's over, my good sister, why do you say everything. Cheng Zheng coughed lightly and signaled Yu An not to talk nonsense.

Sure enough, Cheng Fang slapped the table, "Nonsense? Isn't it a joke that the grandson of the king of Zhenxi is so frivolous? ”

Yuanxin retorted in a low voice, "Jokes are jokes, can I still cover people's mouths?" ”

"Presumptuous!"

Yuanxin trembled and didn't dare to say anything more.

The old man asked, "Who is she?" ”

Yuanxin lowered his head and spoke cautiously, "Her name is Yao Menghan, I like her, I want to marry her, please ask grandpa for permission." ”

"Whose family?"

Yu An couldn't help but speak, "The second sister-in-law told me that she came from another world, that is the world is very magical, there are a hundred floors, a good horse that can run 400 miles in an hour, and a magic mirror that can hear other people's voices and see other people's appearances thousands of miles away. ”

"I'm not talking about a good horse." Meng Han whispered stubbornly in defense.

Yu An was puzzled, "Isn't BMW a good horse?" ”

Before Menghan could explain again, the old man decisively came to a conclusion, "It's true!" Where did the wild girl come from. ”

"I'm not lying," Meng Han mustered up the courage to raise his head, "What I said is true, old prince, you can't believe it because you haven't experienced it." I know it's hard for an ancient person to understand the society of the 21st century, especially for an old man like you, and it's understandable that it's hard for you to accept what I'm talking about. I can't take you to the society I live in, and I can't prove to you what I've been through, I can only say that I'm not lying. If you would give me time, you would surely see the difference in me. ”

The old man was not angry at her strong argument, but softened his tone, "What about your family?" ”

Menghan returned to a state of no confidence, "In another world." ”

"There's no way you can go back?"

"Nope."

The old man smiled, "Can I understand that you don't have any evidence to prove your origin?" ”

"So to speak." Menghan is still serious, and the old man can't find a flaw in her eyes.

"Grandpa, let's let Menghan stay first," Cheng Zheng opened his mouth to intercede, "It's not easy for a girl to come here with Yuanxin." ”

The old man said, "If I don't agree, you will still arrange her to Duanhou Mansion or other places, right?" ”

Yuanxin grinned, "Grandpa, this is what you promised?" ”

"Let's stay first, it won't hurt to be a concubine when you get married."

Yuanxin Menghan wanted to open his mouth to argue, but Cheng Zheng shook his head at them, it was better not to push it too hard at this moment.
