117. Preparation for entering Beijing (2nd update)
Official......
Meng Jin narrowed his eyes and looked at the rolling mountains outside the pergola.
"Our official family had the best military when we were young. At that time, the Khitan was strong, there were many battles on the border, and the official family took the lead every time to defeat the enemy, and it took ten years to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun and restore the pattern of the unification of our Han family. ”
"It is precisely because of the outstanding military achievements of the official family that when the first emperor chose his successor, he was able to stand out from the many princes."
"The world has been peaceful for more than 20 years, thanks to the hard work of the officials."
When Meng Jin said these words, he made no secret of his admiration and respect for the official family.
Meng Qingyun said: "Nowadays, there are still many stories about the official family fighting on the battlefield when they were young, and they are like gods. ”
Meng Jin withdrew his gaze from afar and said, "The official family was indeed brave when he was young, but most of the folk legends were exaggerated, just listen to it. ”
Meng Qingyun said: "However, everyone also said that it was precisely because the official family killed too much when they were young and hurt Tianhe that it was difficult for their heirs." ”
Meng Jin sighed: "Zi is silent, and his power is confused. However, the lack of children in the official family is indeed the root cause of the chaos in the DPRK and China today. ”
Meng Qingyun was curious: "The official family is almost sixty, is it true that they have never had a son?" ”
Meng Jin: "There was a prince in the past, who was born by the concubine Yao, but unfortunately died before 100 days. ”
"It's strange to say, there are many concubines in the palace, only the Yao family has given birth for decades, and the only princess in the official family is from the Yao family, so she has to be named a concubine; Later, she gave birth to the prince, which could have been sealed, but unfortunately the prince died young, and the official family was too sad, so naturally she didn't mention it, and the middle palace is still empty. ”
Meng Qingyun's mind flashed countless bloody and dark palace fighting scenes, and said: "Here, there shouldn't be a harem battle, right?" ”
Meng Jin "shh ”
Meng Qingyun put his finger on his lips to shut up.
Meng Jin said: "The official family is mighty and awe-inspiring, and the former dynasty and harem are all afraid of power and bad virtue, so there is a small trouble, but I am afraid that I can't escape his eyes." ”
Meng Qingyun nodded, but he was a little disapproving.
In her previous life, her grandfather was also very majestic, but the uncles and aunts below were not just making small movements, and finally killed her.
Meng Jin said: "Have you read all the books you have read these days?" ”
He was referring to some books like the Bianjing Miscellaneous.
Meng Qingyun said: "I've seen it all, the scenery of Bianjing is interesting." ”
Meng Jin: "You think it's interesting, come with me to Beijing for the New Year." ”
Meng Qingyun was surprised: "Really? ”
Meng Jin: "Although I refused the official twice, I still have to enter Beijing after all." Your eldest uncle has lost his imperial heart, and he is only afraid of difficulties in his career. If I don't go up again, won't the Meng family have to lose at the hands of this generation? ”
"Besides, with the head of the family like this, I don't worry about leaving you alone in Yaxi."
Meng Qingyun said: "If I go to Beijing with my father, then the family affairs can only be handed over to the eldest lady." ”
Meng Jin: "She made those mistakes, where is she still worthy of being in charge." Besides, it's not like there's no one else at home. I think the eldest daughter-in-law is stable, it's not bad, people like us have family rules and rules and the rules of previous years, as long as Xiao Gui Cao follows, there will be no big mistakes. ”
Meng Qingyun has nothing to do, she has nothing to be nostalgic for.
Since we are talking about entering Beijing, we naturally have to talk about the preparations for entering Beijing.
"Your eldest uncle originally had a house in Beijing, but the long house has a lot of grievances against us now, so it's better to be less entangled. We also have a house in Beijing in the second room, which was originally your mother's dowry, and it was rented out a few years ago. Now you have sent someone into Beijing and returned the tenant, and what should be repaired will be repaired in order to live in Beijing. ”
Meng Qingyun responded, and thought in his heart who to send.
"When we enter Beijing this time, we must live permanently, and the family affairs personnel need to be arranged. Now that you are in charge, I think the rules and regulations are very safe, so you can cut it yourself, and see who you want to bring into Beijing and which people stay in Yaxi. ”
"Also, ask your grandmother if she wants to go to Beijing with us. But there's no hurry, I'll tell her in person when I get back. ”
Lala miscellaneous said something related.
Until Zhang Adaa came back with two large bundles of firewood.
"I've seen Yuan Niang."
Meng Qingyun nodded at him, and suddenly remembered that when he first returned to Yaxi, the horse was attacked.
"The county government finally found out what happened that day."
Meng Jin said: "This kind of thing, there are no casualties, only one horse died, it is not a big case, and the county government will naturally not die." However, following the confession of the shopkeeper of the restaurant, I found the inn where the other party was staying, and judging by the accent, it was about an outsider in Shandong. ”
Shandong?
Laizhou, Yizhou, and Mizhou are all in Shandong.
"Could it be that he is an enemy in officialdom?"
Meng Jin said: "It's not impossible. ”
Meng Qingyun said: "If this is the case, I am afraid that there will be danger in the future." Daddy, why don't you recruit a few more skilled nurses. ”
Meng Jin thought for a moment: "It's okay." Your second uncle is well-connected, so you can ask him to look for him on your behalf. ”
Meng Qingyun responded, and when he was about to go back, he wrote a letter to Bai Rongxin.
The father and daughter have been talking for so long, and they have all said clearly, and seeing that it is almost noon, Meng Qingyun got up to say goodbye.
The mountain road is smooth, and the carriage goes smoothly.
Two quarters of an hour later, we returned to Yaxi.
In the carriage, Meng Qingyun was thinking about a series of preparations for entering Beijing.
Suddenly, there was a loud shouting outside.
"Yuan Niang! Is it Yuan Niang? ”
Zijing pushed the car window open a crack, glanced out, and said in disgust: "It's that Chen Erlang again!" ”
The loess was flying outside the carriage, and Chen Erlang and a group of gentlemen rode horses and rushed to the front to block the road.
The driver had to stop the car.
Chen Erlang rode his horse and trotted out of the car window, and shouted enthusiastically: "Yuan Niang, we meet again." ”
Meng Qingyun was a little annoyed with him, and he didn't want to deal with him, so he whispered to Asakusa and Bauhinia for a while.
Asakusa took a hood and put it on her, covering her face.
Zijing opened the window and said to Chen Erlang: "Hello second son, we have something urgent to go home, can you let us go?" ”
Chen Erlang ignored her, looked past her, looked at Meng Qingyun who showed half of his figure, and said, "Yuan Niang, we haven't seen each other for a long time, I don't know if I can come down and talk about it?" ”
Meng Qingyun didn't move.
Zijing, who was ignored, endured his displeasure and said: "Second son, we have urgent matters, if you want to catch up on the old days, please change the day." ”
Those gentlemen who came over together laughed at Chen Erlang one after another.
"Hey! People don't want to deal with you. ”
"Erlang also has a day when he was dumped by the girl."
Chen Erlang was a little annoyed, and shouted: "I'm talking to your girl, what are you talking about!" ”
