Chapter 22

"There are many candidates who have participated in the palace examination this year, which is really my blessing for the Great Zhouβ€”β€”(Read the latest chapter.)"

Prime Minister Meng put down his chopsticks, and the smile on his face was very bright.

Compared to him, Meng Yuan's expression was a little flat: "Oh, yes, it is indeed the blessing of the Great Zhou." ”

How wise is Prime Minister Meng Cheng? The 'girl' could see what she meant with a look and a movement.

Ben had already finished his meal and was going to the study to deal with the official documents, but he stopped and observed Meng Yuan quietly, and only spoke again after a while.

"Yuan Yuan knows that descendant?"

Meng Yuan was startled by his father's question, and said with a smile: "Why did Daddy say this, the 'girl' was raised in the deep boudoir, how could he know that offspring?" ”

Prime Minister Meng smiled lightly: "I really don't know? ”

Meng Yuan shook his head and replied quite decisively: "I don't know." ”

Prime Minister Meng didn't poke at her, and said bluntly: "That being the case, then why don't you like him?" ”

"I didn't dislike him." She flatly denied it.

"Yuan Yuan, your father has been an official for so many years, and his kung fu of observing words and 'colors' is still at home, don't fool 'fooling' your father." After Prime Minister Meng finished speaking, he didn't need her to answer, and continued, "But since you said so, my father is naturally willing to believe it, then I really want to see him in the next life, and I will invite him to the mansion in a few days, what do you have to say?" ”

This tentative 'sex' words made Meng Yuan unable to refuse, if she disagreed, it would be tantamount to admitting in disguise that she didn't like Su Jichen.

So she said from the goodness: "Since he can match that dead couplet, I think he is indeed a plastic talent, and it is good for my father to meet him." ”

Prime Minister Meng shook his head with a smile, got up and went to the study.

Seeing him leave, Meng Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and became more and more irritable in her heart, only hoping that Su Jichen would come later on the day she arrived at the mansion, and that day she would be fine as long as she stayed in the courtyard and didn't go anywhere.

However, people are not as good as heaven, and I don't know if Prime Minister Meng Cheng has orders, no one told her that there were outsiders in front of her on the day Su Jichen came, or she reported it with the eyeliner of the front 'door', this recognition made her a little depressed.

Since he met Zhao Chen because he almost fell into the water, Prime Minister Meng Cheng has a habit. No matter what outsiders come to the house, whether it is a man or a woman, they will inform Meng Yuan in advance and ask her not to run 'around', so as not to cause anything else or provoke someone who should not be provoked.

This time, Prime Minister Meng Cheng did not notify her of any uncharacteristic news, if she was not deliberately testing her, it was that the person who came to inform her had something wrong on the way.

For her father, Meng Yuan was both guilty and trusting, she naturally didn't want to consider whether her father was fake to her, so there was only one possibility - the person who came to inform her was delayed on the way.

Meng Yuan sat on a chair and drank tea, waiting patiently, and sure enough, it took about half an hour before the person who came to inform arrived.

"Say hello to Miss." The subordinate saluted, "Xiangye asked the servant to tell Miss SΓΉ that there is a foreigner in front, please don't move around at will." ”

Meng Yuan bowed his head and said: "I know, help the wind, reward." ”

Fu Feng took the reward silver and 'handed it over' to the person who came to deliver the message, the person smiled happily and said a bunch of auspicious words, Meng Yuan listened slowly, and then said with a smile: "Is the person in front of you just arrived?" ”

The servant said: "It's been a while, and the slave was delayed because of a little thing when he came, and he asked the young lady to atone for his sins." He knelt down, and his face was not as happy as it had been before.

"You're smart enough to confess right away." Fufeng's laughter was very pleasant, but the person trembled when he heard it, "Miss, what should you do with this minion?" ”

"Let's hear why he's delayed." Meng Yuan picked up the teacup and lifted the lid to hide the heat lightly.

When the slave heard this, he immediately said: "Miss Mingjian, when the subordinate came down, I met the eldest lady on the road, and the eldest lady broke her foot, and only one maid followed, which was really ineffective, so I asked the slave to help call the other maids in her yard to come over." ”

"It's just to find a maid, and it will take half an hour?" Fufeng asked.

The slave was sweaty and said: "Sister Fufeng, the slave is telling the truth, it was originally just a person, and it didn't take long, so the slave went, but when she arrived at the eldest lady's yard, Aunt Lin said that she was uncomfortable, and asked the slave to help call Lang Zhong......"

In short, those who are not allowed to communicate come quickly.

But even if he doesn't come, as long as Meng Yuan doesn't go out, he still won't go on a business trip, and Lin Wan and Meng Rou have no use for this trick.

Meng Yuan was wondering if they would have any tricks, when he saw Quan Fu come in and report: "Miss, the eldest lady is here, saying that she wants to meet with you and apologize for 'that time'." ”

"That time", what a cautious word? Since Meng Rou and Lin Wan harmed Meng Yuan, Prime Minister Meng Cheng asked people to guard Yongya Yuan and not allow them to come in, but whenever they came over, someone would always go to sue Prime Minister Meng, and the Prime Minister should have received the news.

"Didn't she break her foot? Then go back and rest. Meng Yuan said leisurely, "Standing here again, it's time to meet my father in a while." ”

Quan Fu was ordered to go out and tell Meng Rou the original words, and Meng Rou's forehead was full of beads of sweat, as if her feet hurt.

She had no intention of leaving at all, and continued to ask Quanfu to spread it again, and after Quanfu passed it twice, she stopped going in and persuaded her at the 'door'.

"Miss, don't embarrass us to be slaves, Miss She said that she was not feeling well and didn't want to see guests, so please go back this time."

Meng Rou smiled and said, "Please help me talk about it again, you can say ......it" Halfway through her words, there was a sound of hurried footsteps behind her, and it turned out that Prime Minister Meng Cheng had arrived.

She looked back and saw that Prime Minister Meng Cheng had come alone, and there was no one else behind him except the guards, and she couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

"Rou'er, what are you doing here?" Prime Minister Meng Cheng said with cold eyebrows.

Meng Rou said sadly: "The 'daughter' just came to apologize to the second sister, the last time the incident was that the 'daughter' was confused, and she shouldn't listen to Aunt Lin's words and do those things that shouldn't be done......"

Hearing her say this, Prime Minister Meng Cheng's face softened slightly, but he was still carefully savoring whether her words were true.

"Say hello to Xiangye." Quan Fu also saluted respectfully, and said cautiously, "Xiangye, the eldest lady just let the slave pass it through, but the young lady is really uncomfortable and doesn't want to see guests." ”

Prime Minister Meng nodded and said, "Since your second sister is not feeling well, you can go back first and come to see her another day." ”

Meng Rou left with her head bowed, her back was wolf, and she was staggering, and when Meng Cheng saw it, she asked, "What's wrong with your feet?" ”

Meng Rou said: "The 'daughter' is fine, thank you for your concern." After saying that, he gritted his teeth and left, in the end, it was his own flesh and blood, although he couldn't forgive him for doing something wrong, but looking at her like this, he would be a little unbearable.

However, Prime Minister Meng Cheng didn't stop her in the end, for those who made a mistake once, he is always difficult to trust, although Meng Rou's bitter 'meat' plan has a little effect, but it will continue for many years, and under the premise of her honest duty, the result will be produced.

In the front hall, Su Jichen is waiting for the Prime Minister to come back, and he has benefited a lot from the 'exchange' conversation just now, and if he can really be the Prime Minister's 'protΓ©gΓ©', and then rely on his true talent and learning, Feihuang Tengda is just around the corner!

After waiting for a while, he didn't see the prime minister come back, Su Jichen was not in a hurry, but suddenly walked into a subordinate he didn't know, helped him fill another cup of tea and said, "Childe is waiting for the prime minister?" Xiangye is at the second lady's place at the moment, and he should be back soon, why don't you go and wait on the road to greet the prime minister? ”

Su Jichen was stunned and said, "This is not good." ”

The next man smiled very naturally: "How come, Xiangye will definitely be very happy when he sees his son greeting him." ”

"Really?" Su Jichen was a little skeptical.

"Yes, don't worry, childe." The subordinate 'revealed' an expression of "believe that I must be right" and said, "Go out of the front hall and walk in the direction of the 'flower', and the slave will go down first." After saying that, he left without waiting for his answer.

After leaving the front hall, the man turned a few corners, changed his clothes, and left the prime minister's mansion over the wall.

That body of kung fu is not a simple corner 'color' at first glance.

Su Jichen hesitated in his seat, and finally decided to listen to the next person.

He left the front hall and walked along the place where the next person said, and when he came to the end, he saw the words "Yongyayuan", and there was no one here, only the open 'door' and the maid at the entrance of the 'door'.

"Bold, what kind of person are you, dare to 'mess' into the back house of the Prime Minister's Mansion?" When Fufeng saw him, he immediately asked someone to arrest him.

Su Jichen immediately said: "The girl misunderstood, Xiaosheng was invited by the Prime Minister to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion as a guest, but he came here to find the Prime Minister according to what he said, and he didn't deliberately 'mess' into the back house, Xiaosheng will leave!" ”

In the courtyard, Meng Yuan, who had not yet entered the house and was lying down, heard the extremely familiar voice, and his heart, liver and lungs were crowded together, not to mention how depressed he was.

"Fufeng, close the 'door' and come in."

After saying this, Meng Yuan hurriedly entered the house, and Su Jichen outside the courtyard did not hesitate, and quickly left here.

As soon as Meng Yuan entered the house, he saw a man in a white python brocade robe sitting on the couch pouring himself a drink.

"I haven't seen you for many days, and I miss it very much." Zhao Chen expressed his intention in eight words reservedly, then turned over the teacup, poured the tea and put it opposite him, and continued, "Don't make a noise, don't let others know that I'm here." ”

Meng Yuan's heart was like carrying several deer, and the three moods of nervousness, stinging 'excitement', and apprehension were mixed in it, and it was difficult to describe it.

"Why are you here?" She sat down across from him and asked something that didn't make sense.

"Your father didn't know I was coming." Zhao Chen said lightly, "I'm not suitable to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion now." After a pause, he lowered his voice, "But I thought I should have come to see you, so I came." He took a sip of his teacup and said casually, "The person outside just now looks a little familiar, do you remember where you saw it?" ”

Meng Yuan hesitated for a moment and said, "It was the scholar we wanted to save me when Gan Lin encountered the assassination. ”

"Oh?" Zhao Chen pretended to be surprised and said, "Did you ask the Prime Minister to thank him personally?" ”

Meng Yuan said helplessly: "Can you stop pretending to be stupid, you obviously know everything." ”

Zhao Chen's expression was stunned, and only after a moment did he smile lightly, and said softly: "It's just a joke with you." He shook the teacup in his hand, "Before I came, I saw a very interesting scene outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, do you want to hear it?" ”

"What scene?" Meng Yuan asked very kindly.

Zhao Chen put down the teacup and leaned closer to her, and she unconsciously approached him, until there was only a finger in front of the two of them.

"I saw people from the Second Prince's Mansion going out of the Prime Minister's Mansion outside."

Meng Yuan's first reaction was: "My father has never seen anyone from the Second Prince's Mansion. ”

Zhao Chen narrowed his eyes when he heard this, and then moved forward a little more, the tip of his nose touched hers, and said in a deep voice: "I didn't mean that." ”

Meng Yuan knew that he was under pressure because he knew that he was the crown prince in his previous life, and he would inevitably become the emperor later, so he subconsciously explained to his father, fearing that his father would leave a bad impression in the hearts of the future prince and the son of heaven.

Now that he reacts, he knows why he refers to why Su Jichen came to the back house.

"What does the second prince plan him to do as a scholar?" She looked ignorant, as if she really didn't understand anything.

Zhao Chen didn't go to see if she was pretending, straightened up and leaned on the cushion behind him and said, "To answer your last question, I won't talk about these things that have nothing to do with my intentions." ”

Meng Yuan began to blush inexplicably, Zhao Chen was very satisfied with this scene, and said again: "The relationship between Concubine Lin and the second prince is not clean, so naturally we need to help each other." ”

"......" It seems that Lin Wan is still uneasy, so there is no need to let her go anymore.

Thinking about those things, Meng Yuan's face was a little 'gloomy', Zhao Chen felt very novel when he saw it, and looked at it carefully, and when she found out, she instantly became flustered and restrained.

"Why are you ......," she choked, "how are you staring at people 'messily'!" ”

Zhao Chen smiled silently, and didn't know how to do it, and suddenly came to her, and before she could react, he hugged her waist and whispered in her ear: "I not only want to watch, but also do something else." I haven't seen you for many days, and I can't count how many years, it's so difficult, I don't think you will refuse me. ”

Before Meng Yuan could object, Fufeng outside the 'door' opened his mouth: "Miss, Xiangye is here." ”

"My dad is here." Meng Yuan grabbed his sleeve in surprise and said, "You go quickly, don't be seen by him." ”

Zhao Chen was quite depressed, but he couldn't help it, he didn't inform the prime minister this time, if he was seen, he would definitely not be happy as a father.

Unexpectedly, he was about to jump out of the window, and the prime minister stepped into the courtyard, and he had to close the window again.

"What can I do?" Meng Yuan was so anxious that he spun around in circles.

"Yuanyuan?" Prime Minister Meng Cheng stood outside the room and said, "Why do you lock the 'door'?" Rested? The second half of the sentence is asking Fufeng.

"Miss has been in for a while, maybe she fell asleep." Fufeng said.

Meng Chengxiang seemed to have something, hesitated for a moment and didn't leave, Meng Yuan was in a hurry, put down the 'bed' tent, pointed to the inside and said to Zhao Chen: "Go in!" ”

Zhao Chen looked at it, a little stiff, and asked, "Then ...... you?"

"I'll go in too." Meng Yuan did not hesitate.

Fufeng, I really want to thank you, thank you for the sentence "it may be asleep" - Zhao Chen went to the 'bed', and then the warm and soft 'jade' was in his arms, and the two of them lay on the 'bed', he was inside and she was outside, that scene, not to mention how fragrant and 'glamorous'.

"No, she doesn't have the habit of taking a nap, isn't it ......" Prime Minister Meng Cheng's arrival here seemed to be related to some danger, he frowned after a little thought, and quickly patted the 'door' again, "Yuan Yuan, are you inside?" But sleeping? He seemed to be really anxious, and before Meng Yuan could say anything, he said directly, "Dad is in!" With that, he entered the 'door' alone, and the room was fine, but the 'bed' tent was put down.

"Daddy......" a thin voice came from the tent, "I just fell asleep, do you have anything to do with me?" ”

Thinking that someone in the Second Prince's Mansion had sneaked into the Prime Minister's Mansion, Prime Minister Meng was not sure whether the 'daughter' was being held hostage, so he walked cautiously and cautiously inside, and the two people in the tent were simply ...... Unable to look directly
