The next day, Menghenan ordered someone to invite Shen Mengzhi to go to the city tower of the capital, saying that the scenery was good in the morning and he wanted Shen Mengzhi to take a look, but he was afraid that Shen Mengzhi would plan something at the last moment and let his plan fall through.

Shen Mengzhi didn't shirk it, and went with an early meal.

The castle tower is quiet, and there are not many pedestrians, but most of the people who come and go are familiar faces, and they are not people from the city.

There are idle children of the scholar clan, and there are also ordinary people, standing under the city tower in twos and threes, seemingly idle, and their eyes are moving with her.

The left is just here to join in the fun.

On the top of the city tower, Meng Henan stood with his hands in his hands, looking at her condescendingly, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and his eyes were filled with calmness that would surely make her defeated.

Standing next to Meng Henan was Meng Jiangnan, standing with his back to her, not knowing what his expression was.

Slightly raised his head and looked at the sky above his head, and did not move for a long time.

It's supposed to be in the fugue.

She guessed that Meng Jiangnan should hate such things very much, especially when it was related to family and daughters, but she had to get involved.

Today, if Meng Jiangnan didn't speak, how could she and Meng Jiangnan be able to climb the city tower?

The city tower in Shangjing is the most strictly guarded pass of the Ming Kingdom, and it has always been heavily guarded, and no outsider can climb it.

Shen Mengzhi walked up the stairs, and when he was halfway there, he felt the wind whistling past his ears, and when he climbed the city tower, he felt that the wind was whistling in his ears.

The cool air also followed the wind, blowing on the face, as if it was cold to the bone marrow.

It is said that the high places are not cold, and this should be the case.

Shen Mengzhi put his hand in his sleeve and slowly walked towards the location where Menghenan and the two were.

As soon as she got closer, Meng Henan said, "Miss Shen is a daughter-in-law, even if she has a mother-in-law by her side, no one will say anything, she comes alone, don't say that I am bullying." ”

His eyes were locked on Shen Mengzhi's face, not without disdain.

Shen Mengzhi smiled, "If you can gamble with your life, why do you care if you climb the tower alone, or who will accompany you to the tower?" Gambling is all betting, whether it is a man or a woman, it is better to be fair. ”

Menghenan laughed twice, looked up at the sky, pretended not to hear Shen Mengzhi's words, and deliberately ignored Shen Mengzhi, wanting to show his disdain for Shen Mengzhi.

Meng Jiangnan on the side heard the two of them talking, and finally stopped looking at the sky, raised his eyes to look at Shen Mengzhi, and smiled slightly.

said, "Miss Shen is here." ”

Shen Mengzhi also greeted with a smile, "Dream Temple is positive." ”

It's just a simple hello, which comes out of the mouths of the two, like an old friend's greeting. The two are clearly polite and respectful, but as soon as they speak, they are inexplicably tacit and inexplicably harmonious.

Meng Henan couldn't help but snort, and said coldly, "Ugly girls and concubines, in the open and in secret, you can't say it." ”

"Brother, don't talk nonsense! Ascending the city tower today is for you to make a bet with Miss Shen, and this official is the witness, except for this incident, everything else will rot to death in the stomach! Remember, on the top of the city tower, you can't do anything without permission. ”

Meng Jiangnan's tone was still gentle, but his eyes were not as warm as usual, and there was a sharp flash in them.

The person is still the same person.

However, in line with the duty of being an official, it is an official faction, and what is revealed on his body is official authority, which cannot be blasphemed.

Such a dream Jiangnan, even if he speaks politely and elegantly, in the end he has a nameless momentum, which makes people dare not provoke.

Meng Henan glanced at Meng Jiangnan, didn't know what to be afraid of, closed his mouth in a sneer, and his words and deeds were much more restrained.

After such a meeting, no one spoke in the three-person room.

Whether it's looking at the sky or the ground, it's all waiting for noon to come.

The hour has passed, and the time has come.

The sky is getting brighter and brighter, and the crowd below the castle is gradually growing.

The wind on the castle tower is getting lighter, and it is not as cold as before.

Meng Henan said with a smile, "Miss Shen, Aunt Dao is not so easy to invite, just eight sedan chairs, you may not be able to invite her over, it is better to admit defeat early and eat more meals." ”

Shen Mengzhi didn't bother to pay attention to Menghenan, and looked at the scenery around him carelessly.

Even though I was still worried.

Mama Li is the door out of Yin, and the city gate is also open at Yinshi, if nothing else, then a few hours, no matter what arrangements Guan Gu wants to add, it should be at the foot of the city tower.

I don't know who made the mistake.

In a blink of an eye, more than half of the hour had passed, and it was less than half an hour before noon.

The castle tower was full of shaking heads, and they were no longer patient, and began to talk to each other.

Because of the distance, I couldn't hear what to say anymore, and I only heard the sound of chirping.

Meng Henan became proud, and his face was full of triumphant smiles.

"Miss Shen, there is only half an hour left, what does half a quarter of an hour mean? You have to drink a cup of tea neatly, no matter how much you consume it, Aunt Dao, it is impossible to come. ”

Listening to the determination in Menghenan's words, Shen Mengzhi's hand hidden in his sleeve loosened and tightened, tightened and loosened, and repeated over and over again.

With a calm face, he asked, "Aunt Dao told you that she won't come?" ”

"What if you don't kiss or not?" Menghenan took out a note from his sleeve and opened it in front of Shen Mengzhi, "Aunt Dao gave me a note and promised me that she would come!" Shen Mengzhi, thinking of fate, if you are willing to kneel down at this moment and lick the dirt off my shoes, I can take back the paper and spare your life. ”

Shen Mengzhi ignored the arrogance in Menghenan's words and read the words on the note one by one.

She could be sure that it was the same handwriting as the note Seventeen had given her.

If her note came from Daogu's hand, Menghenan's note should also be from Daogu's hand......

Menghenan thought that Shen Mengzhi was shocked by the note he took out, and smiled even more cheerfully.

Yang Yang put the note in his hand close to Shen Mengzhi and said, "You admit your mistakes in public and apologize to me, I don't remember the villain's mistakes, and leave you a way out." According to what I said before, if you marry me as a concubine, as long as you please me, I will love you well, anyway, this is the case for your life, you can't get married, and you don't have the ability to make a living, it's better to be happy under me than to eat and drink in the Shen Mansion for a lifetime, what do you think? ”

Shen Mengzhi raised his eyebrows, "Is this true?" ”

Meng Henan smiled crookedly at the corners of his mouth, "A gentleman's words, the horse is difficult to chase." ”

Shen Mengzhi hooked his finger at Menghenan and motioned for Menghenan to lean his ear over.

Meng Henan curled the corners of his mouth proudly, and really attached his ears to it.

How do you know, Shen Mengzhi is actually word by word, and said slowly, "Pigs and dogs are not as good as things, you, also, match!" ”

Menghenan was angry when he heard this, and wanted to slap Shen Mengzhi in the face, afraid of the short knife in Shen Mengzhi's hand, and quickly grabbed Shen Mengzhi's hand in his hand.

sneered, "Toast and don't eat and drink, I'll let you go around without eating!" ”

After speaking, he restrained Shen Mengzhi's hand with one hand, raised it with the other, and made a gesture to hit someone.

However, as soon as his hands were raised, there was a cry of pain, and his hands hurriedly covered a certain place and squatted softly.

Shen Mengzhi chuckled, "I forgot to bring a short knife today, but looking at the appearance, this newly learned trick also works." ”
