Bang.

The person in the box next door was not polite at all, and kicked open the door of the private room where Cheng Qing and Meng Huaijin were located.

The owner of the mutton pot shop went upstairs quickly, but was driven away by the people who kicked the door.

"Who's presumptuous—"

"Come with us and plead guilty."

Cheng Qing blinked.

She had already seen that the county lord of Roujia was Xiao Yunting's licking dog, but she didn't expect that there were a lot of licking dogs behind Roujia!

"Senior brother."

"It doesn't matter, this is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and you and I have not arbitrarily discussed the government, nor have we committed any of the following crimes, even if we go to the Holy One, there is a place for us to complain."

Meng Huaijin was very calm, and used chopsticks to clip a piece of mutton to Cheng Qing, signaling her to continue eating.

The mutton that Senior Brother Meng personally soaked was just right, tender and chewy, and Cheng Qing was not polite.

Meng Huaijin's sense of existence is too high, as long as you see him once, it is impossible to forget his face, recognize his face, and naturally know Meng Huaijin's identity.

“…… Bachelor Meng? ”

The person who kicked the door seemed a little surprised.

Meng Huaijin ate the mutton, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and then raised his eyes to look at the person at the door.

Look at the dress, it's the next person next door.

The person next door probably didn't expect Meng Huaijin to be there, and he didn't know what to say, and the person who kicked the door retreated silently.

If it weren't for the kicked, wobbly door that reminded Cheng Qing that she would have thought that what had just happened was a dream...... So, is Senior Brother so awesome now?!

Is it too late to pounce on yourself and hug your thighs?

"Do you still eat it?"

"I don't eat it, I've already eaten it."

Meng Huaijin stood up, "Then let's go, I suddenly lost my appetite." ”

Cheng Qing followed behind Meng Huaijin, watching him take out the money to settle the bill, and couldn't help but look at the closed door next door.

She still has a curiosity about Roujia's licking dog.

can lick Roujia, at least it is Xungui's son, maybe she and the other party will meet in the Guozijian, and there is nothing wrong with having a psychological preparation in advance.

Meng Huaijin took her out of the time-honored store, and the two got into the carriage before asking her if she wanted to eat something else.

"You lost your appetite just now, you will not only have to get used to the cold of winter in the capital in the future, but also get used to the kind of thing just now."

"Does Senior Brother know who is next door?"

Cheng Qing just asked casually, but Meng Huaijin really nodded.

"It's the third prince, I can hear his voice, and the first 'presumptuous' is what he said."

Huh, so powerful?

Cheng Qing said that Meng Huaijin was powerful, not only because of his calmness in the face of the three princes, but also because of Meng Huaijin's ear power.

Two words can tell who is who? This is not only good hearing, but also good memory, and being able to distinguish many voices that have been heard.

Cheng Qing's first reaction was that Senior Brother Meng and Xiaopan might be the best combination.

"Senior brother, why are the third prince afraid of you?"

Cheng Qing saw Meng Huaijin's expression at this time with real admiration, just like when Meng Huaijin opened a small stove for her in the academy, she was thinking, many people may not be able to learn thorough knowledge after studying hard for ten years, but when Senior Brother Meng gave her a lecture, it was like a leisurely stroll, and the interpretation and understanding of the Four Books and Five Classics was easy.

Being looked at by Cheng Qing like this, Meng Huaijin was obviously familiar with it, and he couldn't help but smile:

"The third prince is not afraid of me, he is in awe of the imperial power, I used to teach Xiao Yunting, from this year onwards, I often give instructions to several princes, the third prince naturally does not want to offend me easily."

So that's it!

Cheng Qing understood at once.

If it was something else, the three princes would not be afraid of Meng Huaijin, the attendant of the Hanlin Academy, but this quarrel arose because Cheng Qing mentioned 'Roujia', and the three princes called Cheng Qing and Meng Huaijin over to reprimand them, Meng Huaijin made trouble in front of the emperor, and the emperor didn't know what to think of the three princes.

No father wants his son to do nothing and revolve around a woman, especially when the father is the son of today and has not yet chosen any son to be the heir...... It was precisely because he understood that Cheng Qing's expression became strange.

Cui Peng climbed up, isn't it the third prince!

I don't know whether Cui Peng finally sent Cui Sanniang or Cui Siniang to the third prince as a concubine, or sent both of them to the backyard of the third prince?

Cheng Qing and Meng Huaijin met, but they didn't have time to mention Cui Yan, they were not in the mutton shop at this time, they were not afraid of having ears on the wall, but they could talk about it.

Meng Huaijin did not comment on the fact that the third prince accepted the merchant's daughter as a concubine, but talked about why the third prince accepted the merchant's surrender from another angle:

"The biological mother of the eldest prince is Concubine Shu, the biological mother of the second prince is Concubine Hui, and the biological mother of the third prince is a virtuous concubine. The eldest prince and the second prince are the son of the mother, the virtuous concubine is the mother of the son, when the emperor crowned the mother of the harem concubines, the father of the virtuous concubine received the reward, not as good as the father of a certain Zhaoyi. ”

The harem of the Great Wei Dynasty is the queen, the imperial concubine, the concubine and the concubine, the concubine, the Zhaoyi, the Jieyu, the beauty, the talent, the waiter and the lady, etc.

Now the positions of the concubine and the imperial concubine are empty, and there are no concubines occupying them.

Below the concubines, there are eight concubines in order: Xian, Shu, Zhuang, Jing, Hui, Shun, Kang, and Ning, which are the concubine titles established by Wei Taizu in imitation of the previous dynasty when he sealed the harem.

Under the eight concubines, there are nine concubines, including De, Xian, Zhuang, Li, Hui, An, He, Xi, and Kang.

Under the nine concubines, what are the harem titles such as Zhaoyi, Jieyu, and Beauty.

Nine concubines and eight concubines are a radish and a pit, if the titles of these nine concubines and eight concubines are all occupied, and the emperor still wants to promote a certain mother, then he can only raise the person in front of him to make a position, or simply cross the nine concubines and eight concubines directly, and let his beloved woman be a concubine or imperial concubine, there is only one queen, and there are seventeen concubines and eight concubines combined.

There are less than nine concubines, and they are not considered high-level concubines, and they can't even be the lord of one house, and they usually have to be attached to the palaces of other lords.

The main lady lives in the main hall, and the concubines below Zhaoyi and Jieyu are only worthy of living in the hall.

Meng Huaijin said this to let Cheng Qing feel how unfavored the biological mother of the third prince was.

The virtuous concubine is already the second rank among the nine concubines, and the emperor's reward for the father of the virtuous concubine is actually inferior to the father of Zhaoyi under the nine concubines, which is really a bit of a slap in the face.

The title of virtuous concubine should not be obtained by pampering, but the third prince is getting older, and the emperor can't bear to have a dull face on this son, so he reluctantly seals it.

It can be seen that the virtuous concubine's maiden family is not very powerful.

If it is powerful, the emperor will not be too contemptuous in her family life, even if he is not favored.

"No wonder the third prince looks so ugly, compared to the eldest prince and the second prince, the third prince doesn't get enough help from outsiders."

The third prince must be Roujia's number one licking dog, if he marries Roujia, it will greatly make up for the shortcomings of the three princes.

Cheng Qing is not very interested in the third prince, what she wants to ask more is actually the eldest prince.

She wanted to know if Cheng Rong's death had a bad impact on the eldest prince!

- If the eldest prince lives happily, Cheng Qing will be very unhappy.

- Why should such a person live happily, and where is he qualified to be the next emperor?
