As the sun set, Meng Boliang dragged his tired body out of the carriage, and as soon as he entered the door, he was brought into the main room by the slaves of the family, at this time Lao Cheng Pingbo was sitting on the top, Meng Boliang's father and uncle were sitting around, but except for Meng Boliang's grandmother and mother, the rest of the female dependents were not present.

Feeling the solemnity of the atmosphere, Meng Boliang saluted respectfully and said, "Grandfather, grandson is back." ”

Cheng Pingbo's face was sallow, although he was suspected of pretending to be sick later, but recently because of the unpredictable situation in Kyoto, it really made him a little sick.

"Today, the emperor recruited you into the palace, what did you say?"

Looking at the anxious eyes of his relatives, Meng Boliang was puzzled: "Your Majesty...... intends to give the lord of Fuqing to the young master of the Tianzong Sect. ”

Mrs. Cheng Pingbo was surprised: "Didn't the emperor say before that he would give the acacia to the second son of the Mo family?" ”

Cheng Pingbo knew the emperor's thoughts as long as he thought about it, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, the emperor was not old after all, and what he thought was too simple and too self-conscious.

"How can it be done, not to mention the affection between the girl and the son of the Mo family, that is, if she marries the young master of the Tianzong Sect, it will be too far from Kyoto in the future, and besides, what Tianzong Sect is famous in the martial arts, it can be compared to a serious family, but it is just a reckless, where is it worthy of Acacia?" The eldest lady said disapprovingly.

"Okay, where is the emperor, you can speculate." Although Cheng Pingbo agreed in his heart, he reprimanded: "How important the Tianzong Sect is to the emperor, otherwise the emperor would not attach so much importance to it, and the heavy blow to the Tianzong Sect this time is the best time for the emperor to talk about the conditions!" As for Acacia...... Hasn't the emperor made an order yet? ”

"The emperor didn't give an order, but the rumors released during this time, and the invitation to go today, are all to see everyone's reaction!" Meng Bo said anxiously, he really didn't want his cousin to marry away from home, and he didn't want another friend to lose his love.

Cheng Pingbo thought that he would sweetly call the little girl of the fourth uncle, and his heart sank, but the shape was stronger than people, and they Cheng Pingbo himself could not be protected, could he manage anything else?

"This time, the emperor didn't even invite Mo Liang into the palace, which shows that he is also weak-hearted......"

"Nonsense!"

Meng Boliang ignored his grandfather's reprimand and continued: "If this continues, if he encounters interests, he can abandon the courtiers who helped him in the difficult situation, and if there is anything in the future, won't he abandon us?" The emperor knows very well that the lord of Fuqing is the niece of Ding'anbo, and he has a very good relationship with Mrs. Ding'anbo! ”

The people in the room didn't dare to speak, so they could only secretly look at Cheng Pingbo.

"Have you met with Mo Li recently?" Cheng Pingbo slid his finger on the table next to him casually, and then continued to ask.

Meng Boliang said with a puzzled look: "I have seen it, but I don't see that he is particularly frustrated or angry, it stands to reason that he can't care less about it." ”

"Did the emperor promise him any benefits, so he ......," the second master of the Meng family asked.

"Impossible! Even if there is, Mohedge will never ask for it. Meng Boliang said firmly: "In his heart, the Lord of Fuqing is the top priority, and no one can shake the feelings between them in any matter." ”

Cheng Pingbo leaned back, pondered and sighed: "This matter is so difficult that people can't see clearly." ”

"However, in recent days, he has been walking around very diligently with Prince Bao's prince, especially after the last Fuqing county lord was attacked outside, as long as the county lord wants to go out, he usually sends the county lord to the prince's mansion to accompany the princess." Meng Boliang shook his head, feeling that he couldn't understand: "Could it be that he wants to ask the prince to intercede for him?" ”

The rest of the room felt the same way.

"Actually, if Mo Liang can say that the daughters of some military generals will marry to the Tianzong Sect, maybe Acacia will not need to marry." The eldest lady said regretfully.

"The Daughter of a General...... The emperor will not be willing, firstly, the foundation is too shallow, and secondly, if the family is really difficult to control, the emperor will not take this risk. Mrs. Cheng Pingbo said.

"The matter of the lord of Fuqing will be put aside for the time being, did the emperor say when he will give our family an errand?" The second master couldn't help but look at Meng Boliang and asked, the family is not as good as a day, although there is a meaning of showing weakness, but the errands of the old and young masters in the family cannot be delayed, a family with an empty title but no substance, who knows if it will become a commoner in the next purge. Besides, the old man's title is inherited by the eldest brother, and sooner or later they will have to be divided.

Meng Bo shook his head with a heavy conscience.

The crowd was disappointed.

"But it's a good thing that the emperor recruited Boliang into the palace this time, and the emperor finally didn't forget our Chengping Mansion." The eldest lady was busy playing the round.

The old man said a few words of encouragement, and then let everyone disperse on the grounds that he was unwell.

Meng Boliang just wanted to go out of the main room, but saw that there seemed to be someone hiding behind the compartment and eavesdropping, he didn't say anything, and quietly entered and grabbed the person.

"Ouch!"

Meng Boliang sounded familiar, and when he saw that it was his sister he caught.

"What are you doing here?" Meng Boliang looked outside, pulled Meng Qizhen and walked out of the main room.

"I originally wanted to sit here with my grandmother, but who knew that you were not there, and when I asked my subordinates, they all said that you were discussing matters, and I couldn't enter if I wanted to, so I could only hide in the compartment and eavesdrop." Meng Qizhen was dissatisfied with being isolated.

"It's all about adults, you don't need to listen to it." Meng Boliang touched the top of his sister's hair, and sighed in his heart that his sister had grown up after all, and when he thought of the invitation on his desk after that, he really felt that creation made people.

Meng Qizhen honestly followed behind Meng Boliang, uncharacteristically silent, Meng Boliang felt that his sister was not quite right, so he stopped and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Meng Qizhen bit her lip and asked in a low voice, "Do you know what that young master of the Heavenly Sect looks like...... What do you think? ”

Meng Boliang was puzzled: "In the martial arts, it is said that he is a jade-faced son, and he should look good, but it's a pity that his legs can't move now, and his eyes are blind." ”

"Then after he is injured, will his temperament change greatly?" Meng Qizhen asked cautiously again.

Meng Boliang felt that something was wrong, took Meng Qizhen's hand and walked to the corner behind the flower, and asked sternly: "Don't think about it!" ”

"What do you want or not?" Meng Qizhen pretended to be stupid.

Meng Boliang suddenly felt very powerless and said: "Don't worry, Mo Liang won't let Acacia marry over, you don't have to sacrifice your happiness?" ”

"What nonsense is my brother talking about?" Meng Qizhen bypassed Meng Boliang and walked outside.

Meng Boliang grabbed her and said: "The Heavenly Sect is not a place to be there in a day, if you marry there, who can stand up for you if you are wronged." ”

Meng Qizhen shook off his hand and said with a forced smile: "I won't marry him, I'm just curious to ask, don't be so sensitive." ”

Meng Boliang stared at Meng Qizhen for a long time before he pressed the top of her head and said, "That's the best." ”

Meng Qizhen saw Meng Boliang walking in front, his smile slowly faded, and he lowered his head.

That night, Meng Boliang couldn't sleep, he didn't want the emperor to use the Chengping Bo Mansion to suppress Ding Anbo, and he didn't want his cousin to be married to someone he didn't like by the emperor at will, their Chengping Bo Mansion wanted to stand above the court by their own ability, rather than becoming a pawn that the emperor could throw away at will.

Similarly, Meng Qizhen sat on the windowsill and stayed awake all night.

A few days after Meng Boliang entered the palace, he didn't know where the news came out that Mo Liang had fallen out of favor, the emperor didn't say that he couldn't see Mo Li, but he also didn't let him enter the palace. In this regard, Mo Liang did not complain, but simply left the errand of the household, either to go home to accompany Acacia, or to find a few friends to drink and have fun.

Everyone said that he was using alcohol to kill his sorrows, and that he was powerless in the face of his beloved, but lost his grace, and some people said that he was a child after all, and he did not respect his teacher, so he would not have a good future in the future. In short, it seems that everyone thinks that the person who wants to marry Tianzong Sect is the lord of Fuqing, and Mo Li is simply being pried into the corner.

In the face of the total rumors, Acacia Tong ignored it, she didn't like to go out to visit relatives and friends, and she wouldn't participate in any Kyoto family women's banquets.

It's just that she doesn't go out, and someone is still coming.

"County Lord, the eldest girl from the Meng Governor's family is here."

When the next person replied, Acacia was stunned and said, "Didn't you say that this family will blast out as soon as they come?" ”

"But this time she came with a girl from the Prime Minister's Mansion." The subordinate was embarrassed: "I also brought guards, and I am confronting you at the door." ”

"The girl from the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Acacia recalled that Mo Liang seemed to have said before that the news of the Prime Minister's Mansion that had been spread was the girl from the Prime Minister's Mansion that she had treated last time, and in order to thank the girl for helping her once, Mo Liang also specially told the emperor that the Prime Minister's Mansion intended to seize the queen's throne, and the emperor remembered the daughter of the Governor of Yanbei and threatened the Prime Minister's Mansion with the power of the Governor of Yanbei, which has not yet been established.

Could it be the girl from the Prime Minister's Mansion?

"Yes, I said that it was the sister-in-law of Seventh Prince Wei." The man replied.

"Meng Ruoyi is out of luck, he can't get in by himself, so I've found a helper, okay!" Acacia stood up and walked out: "I'll go and see what kind of three heads and six arms this girl from the Prime Minister's Mansion has." ”

Acacia didn't think about letting these two women enter the mansion, otherwise these two women would enter the mansion with the guards, in case there was any conflict, she would be passive, so it would be better for everyone to be shameless and stand outside the gate to make things clear.

As soon as she reached the gate, she felt that she had made the right decision.

At this time, outside the gate, there were more than 20 guards standing in armor who looked like elites, which was completely different from the dress they usually wore when they went out in the house, which clearly meant that they were coming to provoke with elite soldiers, and I don't know if this was just Meng Ruoyao's idiot's idea, or what the prime minister's purpose was.

"Yo! What's wrong? Is this the Prime Minister's Mansion going to raid my county lord's house? ”
