Chapter 740: The Sin of Deception

"It's Lord Meng's team in front?"

"Stop!"

"Who?" Meng Yan poked his head out of the carriage, his injuries were not completely healed, and for the safety of him and his second daughter, Guo Xiaochao and others found someone to make a carriage.

The carriage was wrapped in iron sheets and could be shot with arrows.

The main thing is to protect the safety of the two female dependents, one is Guo Yue, the decent Mrs. Meng, and the other is Princess Minghui.

Meng Yan took a hitchhike, and when he was tired of riding a horse, he went to the carriage to rest for a while.

Except for the wounded, no one else has this treatment.

There were less than 200 people when he went, and Xing'an and some of them stayed in Datong, and he continued to stay in the prison army.

After removing the people and horses who died in the battle and the Fuwei Dart Bureau, there were only about 100 people left in Meng Yanyuan's class, but he incorporated Guo Jing's private soldiers, and eliminated some unqualified ones, and there were still more than 500 people.

There is no one to take these people in, and following Guo Jing is no different from following Meng Yan.

Meng Yan organized the 500 men into three battalions, one battalion of 150 people, which were cavalry battalion, infantry battalion and engineer battalion.

There are also fifty people, all of whom are relatively innocent and have a good foundation, and they are temporarily assigned to the patrol brigade as a logistics baggage team!

These people, after arriving in the capital, will be disrupted again, and now for the sake of good management of the team, Meng Yan temporarily found three people among themselves to assist in commanding the three battalions.

In fact, Guo Jing's private soldiers are not the only ones, Meng Yan did not accept them all, some of them were paid severance pay and led home, and some of them naturally had to go to prison because they were involved in the case.

Others, have their own way, and have defected to their new owners.

The rest was carefully selected by Meng Yan. After some of them were eliminated, there was the current team.

"The villain belongs to the Yamen, the governor of Xuanfu, and the holy will has come to Xuanfu and gave it to you." The person who came was dressed in soap clothes and black boots, with a red ribbon tied around his waist, a typical image of a low-level soap servant in the Ming Dynasty.

"The Holy Providence has arrived at Xuanfu?"

"Yes. When the decree arrived at Xuanfu, the father-in-law who delivered the decree said that you were about to pass by Xuanfu, so he would no longer rush and wait for you directly in Xuanfu. ”

"Oh, I see, how long will it take to get from here to Xuanfu City?" Meng Yan nodded and asked.

"Before the sun goes down, you should be able to make it."

"Okay. You can show us the way! Meng Yan asked people to check the identity of the soap servant and ordered.

Meng Yan crossed Xuanfu, and then returned to the capital from Juyong Pass, which was also his established route, if he returned the same way, this route out of the customs would not have a chance to investigate.

The officials of the Xuan Mansion came to the gate of the city to greet them, and Meng Yan exchanged a brief greeting with them before entering the city

He politely refused a banquet for local officials. Meng Yan and his entourage of hundreds of people lived in the pavilion, and the local guards also vacated a military camp for him. for their accommodation.

The person who came to Xuanfu to deliver the decree was Meng Yan's old acquaintance, so there were no such restraints.

"Congratulations to Lord Meng, congratulations to Lord Meng!"

"Gonggong Huang, what does the Holy Lord mean by this, why did he suddenly give me a military attaché rank. also gave Xiaoyue a decree? ”

"Master Meng, you are so smart, you will understand." Huang Jing said with a smile.

"Father-in-law Huang, has the saint seen the memorabilia I wrote?" Meng Yan asked.

"I saw it, for the sake of Lord Meng's recital. The saint also convened the two elders of the cabinet, Ling Yue, Hu and Zhang, to discuss it together! ”

"What did you say, can my father-in-law say it conveniently?"

"There's nothing inconvenient, our family came this time, and it was ordered by the emperor." Huang Jing smiled.

"Please also ask Huang Gonggong for advice!"

"Lord Meng is polite, and he doesn't dare to give advice, the situation that day is like this......" Huang Jing was indeed present that day, but he didn't have a chance to speak, so he could only stand under the Dan Pier and be a spectator quietly.

"The Holy One didn't say anything about this, what should I do?" After Meng Yan listened to Huang Jing's description, although he was relieved, the emperor was not furious, but gave him an official and a knighthood, which was a good sign.

But there is no explanation for this matter, and I can't let go of it in my heart.

"The Holy Lord asked, did you really sleep with this Tatar princess, Lord Meng, or did you fake sleep?"

"Does it make a difference?" Meng Yan's embarrassed face flushed.

"If we really sleep, our own woman, we can't send it back anyway, but if not......"

"What do you mean, if not, the Holy One still has to send people back?"

"Lord Meng, why haven't you understood, Princess Tatar will definitely not be able to live in your mansion when she enters Beijing, and this is to verify her true body, if the virgin body of Princess Tatar is not broken, if it is superfluous, Lord Meng doesn't need us to teach you, right?" Huang Jing squeezed his eyebrows and smiled.

Meng Yan was stunned.

This is to let him cook raw rice with Princess Minghui, and it's not just talking, it's true.

"Lord Meng, it's dangerous to go back, these words of the saint are all privately told to you by our family."

"Are these really what the Holy One said?" Meng Yan was a little skeptical, the emperor really had such a powerful mind, how could he trust Wang Zhen so much in a eunuch who brought disaster to the country and the people?

"Of course, the saint will not say it explicitly, but the meaning of the words is this meaning, Lord Meng himself should think about it, this crime of bullying the king is to kill the head." Huang Jing reminded, although he and Meng Yan had not yet been tied together.

But if Meng Yan is unlucky, he, a person who is close to Meng Yan, will definitely not have a good life.

This is also a pattern of both prosperity and loss.

That's why Huang Jing reminded Meng Yan so hard that if you have to sit down on everything, others will naturally not find you trouble.

As for the problem of drunken immorality, it is all a trivial matter, who hasn't been drunk yet?

The emperor is drunk, and there is a palace maid who is fortunate to give birth to a prince, and the palace maid is expensive by virtue of her son?

Man, these are all subsections!

It's nothing more than sleeping with a noble woman.

Meng Yan knew that Huang Jing's reminder was right, if it was found out that Princess Minghui was still a virgin, not only would she be guilty of bullying the king, but Minghui would also directly face the risk of being sent back to Tatar.

Those Taoist gentlemen in the court will definitely hold on to this problem, and even the emperor can't help himself.

The emperor can't break through the framework of ethics and morality to do things, otherwise, the history is like a knife, and when the time comes, give him a stroke, and go to the ancestors below without a word.

Meng Yan didn't think about this problem, and no one around him reminded him, first, this was his private matter, even if Ma Weiran and they knew, they were separated by a layer of relationship, and because of Confucian etiquette, it was inconvenient for them to remind Meng Yan.

Guo Xiaochao, he won't say it, he originally felt that Meng Yan had too many women, and he had to look at Shu, how could he build a yì for him?

When he arrived at Xuanfu, the first person Meng Yan wanted to visit was Yu Tingyi, the governor of Xuanda.

History has changed, Yu Tingyi has never been the governor of Xuanda at all, and he only went from the local government to the center of the court two years later.

And now, he has become the governor of Xuanda, although he is only temporarily appointed, but with Yu Tingyi's ability, he will definitely do something different from normal people in this position.

I thought he was the one who wrote "Lime Yin" Yu Tingyi.

There is no direct conflict of interest between Meng Yan and Yu Tingyi, of course, there is still a huge gap in thinking.

After all, the two of them are separated by 600 years, and human beings are making progress for 600 years, while Yu Tingyi is still stuck in the set of universal values that he thinks is right.

This is also a universal value recognized by this era.

Meng Yan had no way to convince him, so he could only subtly influence him, try his best to seek common ground while reserving differences, so that he could get along quite well.

Yu Tingyi also knew that Meng Yan disagreed with him in some aspects, but he tried to avoid it, he was not a person who ate the ancients, everyone had their own ideas, as long as the essence was not bad, they could be united.

Yu Tingyi still admired Meng Yan himself, although he was not used to some of Meng Yan's practices and behaviors.

Meng Yan always has some fresh things on his body, and after these things are used, they are found to be quite effective.

For example, the internal reform of Jinyiwei quickly reversed the bad image of Jinyiwei in the past among the people, and the military discipline and military spirit were quickly condensed.

There are also endless methods of investigating cases, and the first method of "interviewing" is the first in history.

He is also the title of a squire in the military department, and he knows very well the shortcomings of the Ming military system, and he also wants to reform the military system of the Ming Dynasty.

The problem is how difficult it is to break through the system of guards formulated by Emperor Taizu, I am afraid that no one in the court will support him, and he will see himself as a great rebel.

Why can Jinyiwei succeed, in addition to the independence of Jinyiwei's organization, there is also the support of the emperor behind it, and the military department and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies can't manage people at all.

This is the self-proclaimed system, and the ship is small, at any time to turn around, the military system of the Ming Dynasty is different, decades later, it has been difficult to return, unless the emperor, the cabinet and the five military governors reach an agreement, otherwise, it is difficult to make small repairs.

He suddenly found that if he wanted to make some achievements in the position of governor of Xuanda, should he ask Meng Yan.

Meng Yan also wanted to take the initiative to meet Yu Tingyi, for the war that would affect the future of the Ming Dynasty three years later.

Yu Tingyi is a Qing official, and when he invites guests to dinner, he naturally won't go to any luxury restaurant, so he got a table of dishes in the Governor's Palace.

Let the servant muffle a pot of wine, and he and Meng Yan sat opposite each other and talked for nearly two hours.

No one knew what they had discussed, but later the Governor's Mansion recalled, and the two men had a violent quarrel, and they almost smashed the table and the quilt, but then somehow they sat down again as if nothing had happened.

Later, when the wine was not enough, Yu Tingyi asked his subordinates to buy him another jar of wine. (To be continued......)
