Chapter 785: Acacia Beans
As the sun sets, a couple of lovers embrace.
Leaning on each other's warmth, but they can't see what each other's expressions are. Therefore, the posture of neck hugging is sometimes not conducive to communication.
"Qing'er, sooner or later, my mother will find out how good you are." Meng Xuan said.
He Angelica lowered her head, although she couldn't agree with some words, but because these words came from Meng Xuan's mouth, she didn't want to refute them.
Meng Xuan is so tolerant of her, can't she give in a little bit.
Sure enough, the proposal to move to Luzhou to settle down is too difficult for a strong man, although Meng Xuan is often not at home, but occasionally when he returns home, he still wants to see his mother. Meng Xuan can't be blamed for this, Meng Xuan is right.
However, I am afraid that no matter how much she and Mrs. Su get along, they can only try to keep the relationship from deteriorating, and they can't get along naturally like mother and daughter.
Alas, between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it seems that as long as the first impression is not good, it will not be reversed in the future. Speaking of this, I envy Qing'er, Mrs. Su loves Qing'er from the bottom of her heart, just like her daughter. It's no wonder that Qing'er is such a likable girl.
He Angelica smiled lonely, maybe he was born without the pain of his elders, and he didn't have a mother-daughter relationship.
At this time, the topic changed, and Meng Xuan said again: "You don't know yet, right? The emperor assigned the two daughters of King Yan to the officials of Qipin Jing, and ordered Zhu Di, the king of Yan, to return to the fiefdom of Yanzhou to cooperate with the handover of the feudal domain. But the emperor was still a little relieved, so under the pretext that there were bandits on the border of Yanzhou, he asked the Meng family to send a person to lead troops to suppress the bandits, and by the way, monitor the movement of the troops stationed in Yanzhou. ”
"Go to Yanzhou to suppress bandits? Let you go? ”
Meng Xuan said: "The emperor is interested in me and the third brother and the fifth brother, but after thinking about it, I only recommended the eleventh brother to be in charge alone." ”
He Danggui frowned and said: "Meng Yu has just turned thirteen, and even the experience of being a master is the first time this time, so it's too reluctant to let him take command, right?" Princess Yan Xu Wuhan is a princess of the previous dynasty, scheming and ambitious. She has always dreamed of recovering the country, and wants to support King Yan as emperor and make their son the crown prince, so that the Mongol bloodline can regain power. I think that letting Meng Yu go to Princess Douyan is really not a good chance of winning. ”
"If you add another Yitong and Chang Nuo, what are the odds?" Meng Xuan asked.
"Huh? Yitong ran away and came back, isn't he angry with you anymore? ”
Meng Xuan smiled faintly and explained: "Yitong was seriously injured in the school field, but I actually arranged it early in the morning, and I planned to hide him as a surprise soldier and catch the other party off guard." Unexpectedly, Qi Jing planned to cut off my arm afterwards and killed Yitong, so Yitong planned to hide it. Now he has changed his name to 'Yi Shi' and has become the chief general under the eleventh brother, and he is a very safe candidate, and he can also take advantage of this to get rid of his slavery and open a house on his own. ”
"That's good, Yitong's talent is enough to be the main commander in front of the formation."
"Originally, I also let Yi Yi go with him, and also restored his original name 'Du Huan', and after the success, he glorified the lintel of his Du family, but Yi Yi said that he had no intention of fame, and when our family's nursing home was a three-grade general of the imperial court. He was stubborn, so he had to follow him. ”
"That's good, too."
Meng Xuan's smiling eyes approached and asked in a low voice, "Does Qing'er think my arrangement is very good?" ”
He Angelica nodded and calmly analyzed: "Meng Yu is in the open, so Princess Yan can relax her vigilance, and feel that a thirteen-year-old young general can't do anything with her; Yi Tong and Chang Nuo are in the dark, assisting Meng Yu, this arrangement is the best. ”
"Then about the future arrangements between the two of us, Qing'er also thinks it is good?"
"It's all good."
Meng Xuan said again: "By the way, Chang Nuo married the eleventh sister of Feng as his wife, and I gave him a big gift, guess what?" ”
"Well, I can't guess."
"It's a bag of tricks for Bai Yangbai, I heard that Chang Nuo admires Bai Gong very much, so I specially found it for him as a wedding gift."
"That's good."
"I heard that Chang Nuo confessed to Master Feng that he had pretended to be his son for a few years to control the water transportation trade of the Cao Gang, and really Feng Yang died when he was a child. Master Feng said that he knew at first sight that he was not his son, but as he got along, he appreciated the fake Fengyang more and more. Now he is not a son, but he has become a son-in-law, and he is also a half-son, and Master Feng still wants to hand over the Cao Gang to him after a hundred years. ”
He Angelica was surprised: "The dowry of the eleventh sister is a whole Cao Gang, rich in the world, Chang Nuo has made a lot of money!" ”
Meng Xuan shook his head: "No, Chang Nuo refused to ask for this gift, but persuaded Master Feng to inherit the Feng family with a distant nephew." When Yanzhou is over, he will take his wife to Wudang Mountain to live in seclusion and live some idle years. ”
"It's nice to be in seclusion." He Angelica smiled a little abruptly.
It seems that after many things, Chang Nuo has completely let go, and is willing to abandon the double shackles of fame and King Ning, and be a free self.
The two were talking to each other, and a man with a blue nose and swollen face walked in the distance, and when he got closer, it was Meng Xian, followed by Xiaotao, a maid from Songyuan.
Meng Xuan frowned and asked, "Big brother, did you fight?" When my father saw it, I had to be angry. ”
Meng Xian glared at He Angelica fiercely, and said angrily: "It must be that she bought a murder to sneak attack me, she couldn't seduce me last night, and she turned around and let people sneak attack me." Seventh brother, this woman can't stay, you are about to divorce her! ”
"You mean-" Meng Xuan's face was strange, and he asked slowly, "Qing'er seduced you?" ”
"That's right!" Meng Xian's face was righteous and stern.
Meng Xuan looked down at He Angelica, then looked up at Meng Xian, and finally shook his head helplessly: "Big brother, you can take your father's post to the court judge of the Tai Hospital." ”
"Huh? I only had some skin trauma and didn't have to go to the hospital. Meng Xian was puzzled.
"It's just a skin injury, but self-inflicted affection and delusion are the most serious diseases, and they must be treated as soon as possible." Meng Xuan persuaded seriously.
Meng Xian was furious, pointed at He Angelica and shouted: "She bought a murderer to beat me, you are my seventh brother, and you actually vented your breath with an outsider, and you didn't find out the murderer for me!" You ignore the family motto in vain, you are not filial to your brother! ”
"Don't look for it, the murderer is me."
Without waiting for Meng Xuan to correct Meng Xian's misunderstanding of "outsiders" and "insiders", a BMW with yellow paws and lightning was walked out of the tent, and immediately sat a man in military uniform, pointed at Meng Xian with a horsewhip and said: "Last night, I saw that you were wearing the same jade pendant as the king's shadow, and the king was very unhappy, so he asked the groom to beat you." If you are not convinced, go ahead and come to this king. ”
Meng Xian recognized that the man in military uniform was Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, and carefully shrunk his neck and asked, "Have I ever offended the prince?" Who is the Shadow? ”
"This king thinks that your face is born annoying, and wants to beat you once when he sees you. Shadow, that's it. ”
"Whew!"
The high-headed horse snorted angrily, Meng Xian took two steps back in panic, and saw that the jade pendant hanging on the horse's neck was really the same as the one he was wearing, he was immediately ashamed and annoyed, and turned around and ran away.
Zhu Quan straddled the horse with his head held high, looking down at Meng Xuan and He Angelica who were hugging each other below, and his cold gaze slowly flowed over Yurong.
"You, go with this king!" Zhu Quan gave orders.
The horsewhip refers to the maid Xiaotao. I don't know when, Xiao Tao has been hiding behind Meng Xuan.
She shook her head in panic and said, "I don't want to go with you, General Meng save me!" ”
Zhu Quan said coldly: "You have been seen naked, you must find someone to be responsible, this king is willing to be responsible for the three generations of your ancestors." Go now, or this king will not treat you as a woman. ”
Meng Xuan pulled back his cuffs from Xiao Tao's hand and gently persuaded: "Ning Wang's Mansion is already an empty house, and even the princess's room is uninhabited. ”
"No, I'm not going! General, general save me! ”
Xiao Tao actually cried, Zhu Quan pouted impatiently, wrapped his whip around Xiao Tao's hands, and then shouted "Drive!" "Turn the horse's head and go, regardless of whether the woman behind the horse can keep up or not, basically dragging Xiao Tao on the ground to grind.
He Angelica was surprised and asked inexplicably: "What's going on, does King Ning have a big enmity with Xiao Tao?" Why is Xiao Tao so afraid of him? ”
Meng Xuan looked coldly at the smoke and dust, and explained lightly: "A few months ago, Xiao Tao was kicked out by the Guanfu and lived on the streets, and met me and Zhu Quan at the Yangzhou Inn, and he could still recognize the Mongolian general I played. So I gave her some money and opened her room. A few days later, there was a noise in Zhu Quan's room, and I went over to see that Zhu Quan was not there, only a smooth little pottery was lit to the acupoint. I unraveled the acupuncture points and sent her away, and turned around to ask Zhu Quan what was going on. Zhu Quan said that he drank the wine she gave me by mistake, and when he felt that something was wrong, he ordered her and went out to find a place to solve it. ”
"That's it? Without? ”
"Later, Xiao Tao came to me, and I gave her silver to persuade her to return to her hometown, but I didn't expect her to come to the capital."
"What's the matter with you and Zhu Quan?"
"We made an agreement that I would help him recover his strength, and he would help me move my troops. Without his assistance, I wouldn't have been able to move the Yanzhou cavalry. Meng Xuan confessed one by one.
He Angelica pursed his lips and expressed his thoughts after hearing it: "Meng Xuan, you have hidden a lot of private money, send Xiao Tao today, send He Jingxian tomorrow, when can you give me a little?" ”
"Huh?" Meng Xuan was stunned.
"Don't admit it, He Jing asked you for 100,000 taels of gold first, and the next day you asked Dai Pin to raise money in Weiyang Palace, is there such a thing?"
"Oh, what's this," Meng Xuan smiled, "He Jing first looked for someone to talk to, because something happened to the treasury he guarded, and a large amount of treasury silver disappeared. The person who moved the treasury was actually ordered by the emperor to transfer the treasury silver to the underground treasure house for collection, leaving some basic for future generations, but it was He Jing who came out first to confess. Since the emperor was determined to get along with He Jingxian, it was difficult for me to interfere, so I didn't lend him money. As for my rush to raise money, it has nothing to do with him. ”
"Then what are you raising money for?"
"Guess." Meng Xuan blinked.
"I guess? You let me guess again? "I guess you built a house and a garden outside, and used it to hide the beauty of the house!" ”
Meng Xuan was surprised: "Qing'er is so smart, she won a guess!" ”
He Angelica's eyes narrowed dangerously and asked, "Meng Xuan, do you want to die or don't want to live?" ”
Meng Xuan was puzzled: "Is there a difference between the two?" ”
He Angelica nodded: "Of course there is a difference, the former is that I sent you on the road, and the latter is your own desperate road." ”
After hearing this, Meng Xuan smiled and said: "I don't choose either, I want to go on the road with Qing'er, the journey alone is too lonely, with Qing'er with you, the lychees in Lingnan must be fragrant and sweet, and have a different taste." ”
"Huh?" He Angelica was dumbfounded. Drag her on the road?
Meng Xuan continued: "Haven't you read the poem 'Eat 300 lychees a day, and be a Lingnan person'? In the future, we will follow the example of our ancestors. ”
"Huh?"
Meng Xuan tapped on her head: "Stupid! I didn't mention to you that I was going to Lingnan to garrison troops, but later I heard that the emperor meant that it was a long-term garrison, so I asked Dai Pin to go over first to build a 'Red Bean Villa' where I had drawn the drawings, and urgently raised money for this. In the name of repairing the princess's mansion for you, so taking the deed to demarcate the land is faster than the normal process, and as soon as we get there, the villa can go in and live. ”
He Angelica rubbed his head suspiciously, and asked, "But don't you disagree, I moved out of Meng's mansion to live?" ”
"I mean, I don't agree with you going to Luzhou to eat apples and persimmons, the ground is too cold there, and it will freeze you," Meng Xuan smiled and patiently induced, "Lingnan is so good, the ground is warm, it is not only suitable for sightseeing in the mountains and rivers, but also suitable for us to raise a few more children." Just now, Bai Yang Bai Jinkou broke off, I wish us a hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren, what do you think, lady? ”
"Oh." He Angelica nodded stupidly, and after a while he came back to his senses, he slapped Meng Xuan and said angrily, "You treat me as a pig, a hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren?" After thinking about it, she asked again, "The two aunts in Meiyuan were frightened by my words, thinking that you were going to be beheaded by the emperor, so they packed up their bags and went back to their parents' house overnight. Did the prime minister send someone to pick them up? ”
"Oh, yes."
"Huh?!" He Angelica stared straight.
"The lady doesn't want to?" Meng Xuan asked with a smile.
"I'm asking you for your opinion, do you think it's good, do you want to?" He Angelica struck hard.
"Of course I am...... Thank you for helping me solve the troubles that have plagued me for three years. Meng Xuan smiled, "I secretly ordered Mama to persuade them to leave them for a long time, and even the bad trick of releasing snakes and insects in the room was dispatched, but it didn't work." Or a lady, you have a way, and you can defeat the enemy with one move. As a token of gratitude, I will carry you home with my own hands. ”
He Angelica slapped him again, and Meng Xuan kindly persuaded him: "Carefully beat your hands, I have a set of soft armor lined in my robe." Qing'er likes to pound me so much, why don't you make an appointment tonight? ”
"I'll hammer it, I'll hammer it now!"
Knock knock!
Meng Xuan grabbed her fist and gently put on a string of red bean bracelets for her, those red beans were crystal clear, the red was so thick that it couldn't be dissolved, but at this moment, it was not as deep as the love between the two.
"Qing'er," he held her hand and rested it on his heart, and said softly, "I wish Qing to pick more, this thing is the most lovesick." ”
