Chapter 217: Beidi's Trip
A few days after returning from the academy, Meng Yuanheng and Shen Qianmo prepared to leave for Beidi. For the time being, all the affairs in the northwest were handed over to Xie Chun and Xie Mingyu to handle on their behalf.
Wan Yanping, the new king of Beidi Kingdom, succeeded to the throne, and the enthronement ceremony was half a month later, and the invitation had already been sent to Mocheng ten days ago.
Wan Yan Ping and Wan Yan Luming fought in secret for so many years, and in the end, he had the last laugh. For this result, Shen Qianmo was not surprised. According to her observation of the two brothers at that time, from the perspective of the city government and scheming, Wan Yan Ping is better than Wan Yan Lu, I don't know how much.
Therefore, if there is no accident, it will be a matter of time before Wan Yanping succeeds to the throne of Beidi.
On this trip to Beidi, in addition to Changdong's shadow-like bodyguard, there were also Yun Fei, Bailixiao, Yan Mo, Xue Hao and others, until before leaving, they joined a stalker who wanted to follow Meng Tianxuan.
Therefore, at first glance, their procession to Beidi seemed to be quite imposing.
In the past three years, Meng Yuanheng and Shen Qianmo have been wholeheartedly governing the northwest and expanding the army, and basically have no time to go out to play.
There is still half a month before the enthronement ceremony of Yan Ping, and now they are going to go, which is more than enough in terms of time, so on the way to Beidi, their itinerary is very leisurely.
However, Meng Yuanheng's good mood was destroyed by a group of unknown guys as soon as he entered Daxing City in Beidi.
Daxing City is located in the south of Beidi, and it is the only place to go to Dading City, the capital city of Beidi. At noon on this day, Meng Yuanheng and his entourage settled in a larger restaurant in the city, planning to have lunch, rest and then hurry. Who knew that he met the envoys of the Dasheng court unexpectedly at the door of the restaurant.
Shen Qianmo looked at the team that was coming towards them, and raised her eyebrows slightly.
The envoys of the Dasheng Dynasty were headed by the Seventh Prince, Meng Tianyan, and there were two men and two women behind him. To Shen Qianmo's surprise, those two women were actually the county lord of Anping and Princess Yaohua. And the two men, the older ones had deep-set cheeks and dark eyes, and they were not good people at first glance, but they seemed to be extremely swaggering and high-spirited. The young one is dressed in brocade clothes, oily hair and flour, and is obviously a gentleman.
"Tsk, look at the face of this Rong Huaizhong villain, I really can't figure out what Meng Tianjue likes about him, and he actually handed over the Dasheng cabinet to him to take care of!" Yun Fei shook the folding fan in his hand and said disdainfully.
Shen Qianmo was relieved. It turned out that this elderly black-bearded man was Rong Huaizhong, the first prime minister of the Dasheng Dynasty.
"I heard that his daughter Rong Guifei is now very favored in the harem, and she must be inseparable from the credit of his daughter's pillow wind." Baili smiled and touched his chin, pretending to analyze deeply.
Speaking of the harem, Yun Fei remembered Ning Wu, who was still trapped there. As far as he knew, that Concubine Rong was arrogant and unreasonable, and she would occasionally go to Ning Huaizhong's stubble, so when she saw Rong Huaizhong at this time, Yun Fei couldn't wait to go up and give him a punch.
Meng Yuanheng's indifferent eyes swept coldly over the people not far in front of him, and his thin lips opened lightly. "According to this king, Rong Huaizhong can be reused by Meng Tianjue, there is no more than one reason."
"What is the reason?" Baili smiled and thirsty for knowledge, and looked curious. And all the people looked at him in unison, waiting for his rest.
"That's it...... Rong Huaizhong is even more idiot than Meng Tianjue. Lord Xuan calmly dropped such a sentence, and then took Shen Qianmo and walked into the restaurant.
As for the envoys of the imperial court, he didn't have the time to pay attention to it.
The people who stayed in place looked at each other for a moment, and almost couldn't hold back their laughter.
Lord Wang, how much do you look down on Meng Tianjue!
Shen Qianmo was so sensitive to the changes in the aura on Meng Yuanheng's body, knowing that he was a little unhappy when he saw the people in the Dasheng Imperial Court, so he shook his hand and gave him a gentle smile.
Meng Yuanheng understood Shen Qianmo's comfort to him, his heart warmed, the arm holding her slender waist exerted a slight force, and the coldness in his eyes also retreated a little.
The two were walking upstairs together, but they heard a crisp call from behind them.
"King Xuan, please stay."
This voice is pleasant and beautiful, and Shen Qianmo seems to be a little familiar. Looking back and following the prestige, after seeing it clearly, it made her stunned for a moment.
The person who asked Meng Yuanheng to stay was actually the county lord of Anping.
I haven't seen him for nearly four years, and the face of the county lord of Anping is still stunning, wearing a light purple robe, graceful and elegant, and the coldness and indifference between the eyebrows are a bit similar to Meng Yuanheng's temperament at first glance. It's just that at this time, her eyes looking at Meng Yuanheng were a little complicated.
Although she tried her best to control her emotions, Shen Qianmo could see that in the eyes of the county lord of Anping at the moment, there was joy, distress, attachment, and grievance, and all kinds of emotions were intertwined and intertwined, converging into a mixed feeling of reuniting with her sweetheart after a long absence.
Shen Qianmo raised her eyebrows. It seems that this Anping county lord is not dead to Meng Yuanheng. Counting that she is a year older than herself, then she should be twenty-two this year, but she is still in the boudoir, is she still waiting for Meng Yuanheng to change her mind?
Feeling that the aura of the man next to him instantly turned cold, Shen Qianmo turned his head to glance at Meng Yuanheng, saw that his sword eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and he looked condescendingly at the county lord of Anping who was standing under the stairs, his eyes were indifferent, and he did not answer.
For the woman in front of him, of course Meng Yuanheng will not have a good face. At the Qixi Palace banquet that year, it was she who teamed up with Shen Qianxue to assassinate Mo'er and slander Mo'er as a demon girl, intending to put her to death. If it weren't for her mother, the current eldest princess Zhaoren had a lot of connections with King Xuan's Mansion before, how could he let her go easily at that time.
Seeing that Meng Yuanheng didn't mean to answer, and the county lord of Anping was probably still immersed in his thousands of thoughts, he was speechless with excitement all of a sudden. The scene froze there for a moment.
However, there are people coming and going in this restaurant, and it is not a way for them to stand stupidly like this, Shen Qianmo had no choice but to say: "It turned out to be the county lord of Anping, I don't know what happened when you called my husband?" ”
Meng Yuanheng heard Shen Qianmo call him "husband", a little joy flashed on his cold face, and he hugged Shen Qianmo a little tighter with his hand, and looked at the woman in his arms with eyes as gentle as water.
Shen Qianmo didn't know why she suddenly blurted out the word "husband". Maybe it was because the county lord of Anping looked at Meng Yuanheng too much, which made her feel a little bored for no reason, so she wanted to use the word "husband" to make the county lord of Anping sober up, and by the way, also declare her sovereignty.
The face of the county lord of Anping changed slightly, but the man she was staring at stupidly didn't even give her a straight look, just hugged the woman who was so hated in her opinion, and looked at her with a warmth that he had never had when he looked at others.
Seeing this, the originally hot gaze of the county lord of Anping gradually sank, but he still looked at Meng Yuanheng fixedly, and said: "King Xuan, it is rare to reunite with the old people here, why don't you sit down and eat together?" ”
