Chapter 457: Acacia Lake
"Master Meng, what are you thinking?"
Meng Tianchu was called back to reality by the voice behind him, he turned his head and saw that it was Jian Ning in a dress, after all, he was meeting Concubine Xian, so naturally he couldn't be lazy in his outfit. However, Jian Ning is wearing this aqua red dress today, and she looks good.
Meng Tianchu smiled, got up and motioned for Jian Ning to sit down, Jian Ning looked at the sky and said, "Actually, I like rainy days very much." ”
Meng Tianchu: "Most women like rainy days. ”
Jian Ning chuckled, changed the topic, and said, "In the past two days, I have looked at Ke Gan's account books and found a lot of problems. ”
Meng Tianchu was shocked, and thought of the secret letter again, first looked at Jian Ning carefully, and saw that she didn't seem to be telling a joke, so he asked, "What's the problem?" ”
Jian Ning looked around, and there were a lot of people coming and going at this time, so she whispered: "Wait until you are free and talk to the adults slowly, anyway, I haven't finished reading it yet, and I'll talk about it after reading it, but I have a reluctant request, and I hope the adults will agree." ”
Meng Tianchu: "You speak." ”
Jian Ning said: "I hope that the adults will send me two guards, I mean personal guards, the one who has to protect me inseparably all the time, is that okay?" ”
Meng Tianchu smiled and said, "Why, who would dare to attack the daughter of the political envoy?" ”
Jian Ning sneered and said: "You can't have the heart to guard against people, now everyone knows that I am checking these things, and now these officials, no one's butt is clean, if I check it, it will inevitably be dangerous." ”
Meng Tianchu: "Aren't you even scolding me and your father together like this?" ”
Jian Ning looked at Meng Tianchu indifferently and said, "Now." You've just sat in this official, so I don't know if you're a clean person, but, my father, I can't say anything, but there is one thing, if there is anything unclean in the investigation and punishment of him, I will definitely not be partial. ”
Meng Tianchu: "Oh? ”
Jian Ning got up and looked at the door. said on his lips: "Why don't you believe that Jian Ning will kill my relatives in righteousness?" ”
At this time, Xiao Nuo walked out with the door, Jian Ning hurriedly walked over to help, Meng Tianchu also stood up, Xiao Nuo seemed to be in a good mood today, and walked to Meng Tianchu with a smile and sat down. Then he pulled Jian Ning to sit down and said, "Sister Ning'er, what are you talking about with Brother Meng?" ”
Jian Ning smiled, but said: "It's just that the fat man on Lord Meng's table just now, I heard that the Cao Yun envoy came here, and he spoke with a northern accent. Very interesting. ”
Meng Tianchu didn't know why Jian Ning didn't tell Xiaonuo the truth, but after thinking about it, she probably had her reasoning, so she smiled and didn't speak.
Xiao Nuo saw that Meng Tianchu didn't speak, so he joked: "Brother Meng." Maybe it's because I'm here. You're not happy about interrupting the two of you chatting, aren't you? Then I'll go. ”
Meng Tianchu was in a hurry, grabbed Xiaonuo's hand, and said, "Where is it, it's just chatting, what's not to be happy about." ”
Xiao Nuo was a little embarrassed. I had to sit down. Pretend to wipe your sweat and pull your hand back. Pretending to wipe her sweat, Jian Ning saw it in her eyes, only snickering, and did not speak.
The three of them sat on a bench in the corridor, and they didn't say a word.
Jian Ning: "This time, I saw Concubine Xian, and she became more and more beautiful." ”
Meng Tianchu: "I think so. ”
Xiaonuo: "Mrs. Ke also said so just now, why don't I think?" I think my sister drinks a lot, and when I was at home, I only drank a little during the New Year's holidays. ”
Jian Ning smiled and said: "What Mrs. Ke said may not be true, who doesn't know that Ke Gan's wife is very capable and can bring the dead to life, when Ke Gan was the county magistrate in Haining, if it weren't for his wife, he would be where he is today?" But I'm telling the truth. ”
Meng Tianchu smiled, got up and said, "Let's talk about the two girls, what you say, I naturally can't interject, I'll go in and take a look." ”
Xiaonuo said disdainfully: "Go, go, you just say that you see me, you just want to leave." ”
Meng Tianchu was about to explain, but seeing that Xiaonuo had already twisted his head to the side, Jian Ning made a grimace for himself, Meng Tianchu shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and had to turn around and enter the door.
Jian Ning said to Xiaonuo: "Okay, if you don't look back, you won't be able to twist your neck, and the people will have already left." Xiao Nuo turned his head to take a look, and sure enough, Meng Tianchu was no longer there, so he couldn't help but slam his hand on the stone table, followed by an ouch, Jian Ning couldn't help laughing, and said, "This stone table is not your big brother Meng, what are you doing so hard?" ”
Xiao Nuo's face turned red as soon as he brushed the ground, and muttered: "What is it, you, you will know the jokes." ”
Jian Ning: "Where am I a joke?" That's what you think. ”
Xiaonuo: "Besides, I'm really anxious with you!" ”
Jian Ning: "Okay, good, good, I don't say it, I don't say it." ”
Meng Tianchu entered the door, and saw that many officials had dispersed and went to the hall or the flower hall, Meng Tianchu was about to leave, only to see the prince stop him from not far away, and said breathlessly: "My lord, you make it easy for our family to find." ”
Meng Tianchu: "The prince is looking for me?" ”
The prince smiled humbly, bowed down and said, "Lord Meng, it's not our family looking for you, it's our master looking for you." Hurry up and go. ”
Meng Tianchu: "What is the matter with Concubine Xian Niangniang looking for me?" ”
Wang Gonggong smiled and said, "How dare our family ask about the master's affairs?" You'd better go first. ”
Seeing that the prince was in such a hurry, Meng Tianchu didn't dare to slack off, and followed the princess. Came to a separate hall, Meng Tianchu walked into the door, and saw Xiao Wei sitting on the main seat, next to two women, who were talking happily to Xiao Wei, Xiao Wei happened to turn his head and saw Meng Tianchu, so he beckoned him to come over, the morning incident made Meng Tianchu still have some lingering palpitations, and he was a little puzzled by this virtuous concubine. I don't know how much of her words are true, and I don't know how deep she is hiding, so I deliberately stayed away, and now I was caught by Xiao Wei, so I had to pretend to be happy and walked over.
When I got closer, there were two women next to me, one of whom was Mrs. Ke Qiandi, and the other was unrecognizable to Meng Tianchu, dressed up. It should also be the family of an official, and the length is quite standard, but a mole the size of a mung bean on the left cheek looks unsightly, but fortunately, the eyes are quite bright, probably about the same age as Xiao Weidi, but it is far worse than the clever one.
"Lord Meng. Come and sit. ”
Meng Tian Chuxiao smiled, but thought in his heart when did you change "Brother Meng" to "Master Meng"? However, it is better to be close to each other, after all, I, Meng Tianchu, even if I eat the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard, I don't dare to touch the woman of Long Live Yedi.
Meng Tianchu found a stool to sit down, and Ke Gan's wife was about to face each other, the two of them looked at each other politely and smiled, and nodded.
Xiao Wei said: "What." Do you know? ”
Meng Tianchu: "A few days ago, Mrs. Ke went to the house to sit down, and we got to know each other. ”
Xiao Wei sighed and said, "Sister Zihan, I'm afraid I'm a few years older than Master Meng." ”
Mrs. Ke hurriedly said: "Naturally, Lord Meng is a young talent. He was a prefect at a young age. What a future holds. ”
Meng Tianchu saw the three women sitting here, and he had nothing to say, so he smiled and didn't say anything.
Xiao Wei pointed to the woman with a mole on her face next to her and said, "Master Meng, this is Lord Ke's Seventh Lady, and she has been married to Lord Ke for less than half a year, so she can be regarded as a new marriage." ”
The woman squirmed to her feet. Put on airs. Jiao Didi saluted in front of Meng Tianchu and shouted out to Master Meng. Quickly drip out a few drops of water, which shows that Ke Qian loves this woman very much on weekdays.
Xiao Wei saw Meng Tianchu's expression, and secretly laughed, so he said: "The Seventh Lady and Master Meng still have the same surname, called Su Mei." ”
Meng Tianchu thought to himself, how did our Meng family have such a delicate and pretentious woman, it is really a shame for our Meng family, looking at it this way, it is still the name of Ke Gan's wife who is more elegant.
Meng Tianchu: "Concubine Xian, let's talk, I'll go out for a walk." ”
Xiaowei: "Didn't you just come back?" Just sit here for a while. ”
Mrs. Ke got up and said, "If Concubine Xian and Lord Meng chat first, I will take Su Mei to say hello to Lord Jane's wife." After speaking, he got up and gave Meng Sumei a look, and then gave Xiao Wei a salute and took Meng Sumei away.
Meng Tianchu had no choice but to sit down again, Xiao Wei pursed his lips and snickered, and whispered, "Did you go out to talk to Lord Jane's daughter Ling'er just now?" ”
Meng Tianchu didn't know what Xiao Wei meant, so he hurriedly explained: "Xiao Nuo is also outside." ”
Xiao Wei looked around, beckoned Chen Xingpeng, who was not far away, to come over, and whispered a few words, Chen Xingpeng looked at Meng Tianchu with some strange eyes, nodded respectfully to Xiao Wei, and then went out.
Meng Tianchu: "How does Xingpeng look at me like this?" ”
Xiao Wei smiled and said, "What does Xingpeng think of you?" ”
Meng Tianchu: "I can't say it, my eyes are very strange." ”
Xiaowei: "That's because I told him that I was a little drunk, and asked him to tell Master Jane that I would go with you first." ”
When Meng Tianchu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself if this virtuous concubine had eaten the wrong thing? How to scare yourself again and again.
Xiao Wei deliberately didn't look at Meng Tianchu's expression, but got up and raised his hand to Meng Tianchu, Meng Tianchu hesitated, and finally helped up, at this time the prince stepped forward, Xiao Wei said: "No, just let Lord Meng help me." ”
Wang Gonggong looked at Meng Tianchu, didn't say anything, and retreated respectfully, Xiao Wei said to Wang Gonggong: "I and Lord Meng went out through the side door, so as not to let everyone see it, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave, there are too many red tapes in these officialdoms, and I am dizzy." ”
The prince said cautiously: "Niangniang, are you not in your own house, or let me and Counselor Chen stay by your side, long live the lord when you leave, repeatedly explain to the servants to take care of you and protect you, so..."
Meng Tianchu found that Xiao Wei took his hand away from his arm, his face suddenly became gloomy, and his eyes squinted at Wang Gonggong, who was suddenly too frightened to speak, and lowered his head. Retreating to the side, Xiao Wei walked to the side of the prince, said with a sneer, and said, "Princess, this time I came out, not Banzai Ye asked you to follow me, but I handpicked you, what, do you want to go back alone first?" ”
When the prince heard this, he quickly knelt on the ground. Said: "Niangniang, the slave doesn't mean this, Niangniang is angry, please Niangniang is angry." ”
Xiao Wei snorted and said, "There are some things you better remember, if it's not good, the scar forgets the pain." You probably don't know how dead it is. ”
The prince slammed his head on the ground with a bang, Meng Tianchu heard it in the clouds, and Xiao Wei had already brushed his sleeves away.
Meng Tianchu saw that Xiaowei had already left, so he hurriedly chased out the door and walked to the side door, only to hear Mrs. Ke Qiandi talking to Xiaowei. Meng Tianchu couldn't go over, so he had to look aside.
"Niangniang, when you have time, I'll accompany you to the same Guanyin Temple, I heard that the incense there is very spiritual."
"Thank you Sister Zihan, it's better to pick the day than to hit the day. Will it be tomorrow? ”
". Then tomorrow, you get in the car, sit down, nothing happens, right? ”
"Don't get in the way, you can go back."
Meng Tianchu saw that Ke Gan's wife had gone away, so he appeared. Just about to get in the car. Xiao Wei opened the curtain and smiled when she saw Meng Tianchu. "I thought you wouldn't dare to come." ”
Meng Tianchu jumped into the car step by step, and saw Chen Xingpeng looking at him coldly, he was still the boss of this man back then, but this man was already Xiao Wei's personal guard, I heard that as soon as he entered the palace, he quickly accepted a general, and followed Xiao Wei well.
Meng Tianchu got into the carriage, and then said: "Niangniang's order, how dare Weichen not come?" ”
Xiaowei lifted the curtain and said to Chen Xingpeng: "You and the prince will go back first, Master Meng and I will go to see an old friend, and then come back." ”
Chen Xingpeng replied respectfully: "Yes, Niangniang, the carriage?" ”
Xiao Wei smiled and said, "Just call the coachman to rush, don't worry about my safety, after all, this is still the boundary between my father and Lord Meng, no one will do anything to me and Lord Meng." Also, don't tell my dad and family where Master Meng and I are, if anyone asks..."
Chen Xingpeng hurriedly replied: "Niangniang, just go, I know what I should say." ”
Xiao Wei nodded and shrunk into the car.
Chen Xingpeng gave a few words of advice to the coachman, and then watched the coachman drive the carriage out of the back alley of Jian's mansion, when someone behind him said, "General Chen, what are you doing here?" ”
As soon as Chen Xingpeng turned around, he saw that it was Xiaonuo, so he hurriedly bowed down and replied, "Oh, just come out to breathe, drink more, princess, your legs and feet are inconvenient, let the last general help you back." ”
Xiaonuo poked his head out and looked, and saw that there was nothing in the back alley, so he said, "Have you seen my sister and Brother Meng?" How can I find anyone, no one is there, not even my father. ”
Chen Xingpeng hurriedly said: "Is there something that Lord Cheng and Master Meng are discussing with Master Jian?" Niangniang is probably with some female dependents, or will accompany you to find it, your feet are not convenient. ”
Xiaonuo saw that Chen Xingpeng didn't know, so he had to give up and let Chen Xingpeng accompany him.
The carriage was galloping on the road, and Meng Tianchu saw that Xiao Wei didn't speak, his eyes were closed, he didn't know if he had drunk too much, and he didn't want to ask where he was going, so he had to be silent with Xiao Wei.
After about a stick of incense, the car stopped, and the driver whispered outside the door, "Niangniang has arrived." ”
Meng Tianchu thought that Xiao Wei was asleep, who would have thought that Xiao Wei opened his eyes, walked to the door and lifted the curtain, and said, "This is the legendary Acacia Lake?" ”
The coachman said yes.
Xiao Wei turned his head to look at Meng Tianchu and said, "Has Brother Meng heard of Acacia Lake?" ”
Meng Tianchu shook his head.
Xiao Wei smiled indifferently and said, "Okay, it seems that there are really not many people who know about the land, since they have already come, let's go down and have a look." ”
Meng Tianchu didn't know where Xiao Wei had taken him, and seeing that Xiao Wei had already gotten out of the car, he hurried down.
After getting out of the car, Meng Tianchu was completely attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of him, the sea and the sky, the blue sky, the blue lake, and the unknown water birds flying on the lake.
The coachman led the carriage to a distant place to graze the horses, Xiaowei walked to the lake, saw Meng Tianchu looking completely intoxicated, smiled slightly and walked to Meng Tianchu's side, pointed to a pavilion not far away and said, "Let's go, let's go to that pavilion and sit down." ”
Meng Tianchu: "How did Niangniang know that there is such a quiet and elegant place in Hangzhou?" ”
Xiao Wei smiled and said, "As the prefect of Hangzhou, you don't even know that there is such a good place, it's really a dereliction of duty." ”
Meng Tianchu saw that Xiaowei was in a good mood, so he smiled and said: "I don't know who gave the name of this place, what is it called Acacia Lake." ”
