Chapter 65: The Dinner Appointment
After changing into clean clothes, the Seventh Prince took Meng Tian and went to find Fan Shaobo.
Since he decided to ask Meng Tian to help him, the Seventh Prince told Meng Tian about his current situation, including all the things about Qiye and most of the things he broke with Fan Shaobo.
Of course, he was forced to kneel by Qiye, he didn't say it. He didn't have the face to say such a shameful thing.
Along the way, Meng Tian frowned deeply, as if he was thinking about something?
The Seventh Prince couldn't help but ask, "Cousin, what are you thinking?"
Meng Tian: "I'm thinking, what method will this Mr. Tian Qiye Tian use to persuade Fan Shaobo?"
The Seventh Prince said, "What's there to think about? When they meet, won't everything be clear?"
Meng Tian shook his head and said, "Your Highness, your thinking is wrong. This is the only way to defeat the opponent, if you don't even know what the opponent is doing, and wait until the end of the matter to find a way to solve it, it will be really late. ”
After thinking carefully about Meng Tian's words, the Seventh Prince bowed his hand to Meng Tian and said, "Thank you cousin for your teachings. ”
Meng Tian continued: "Although I haven't met this Mr. Tian yet, judging from the way he invited Fan Shaobo, it can be seen that he is a person who is good at calculating people's hearts and has very clever means. ”
The Seventh Prince was puzzled: "Isn't it just to set up a dinner?
Meng Tian: "This is not an ordinary dinner. His subordinates also heard that Fan Shaobo, the prime minister of Yueguo, was delicious, and he once spent a lot of money to transport ingredients from Tianshan to Yueguo to cook. This Mr. Tian used food as bait to prove that he had investigated Fan Shaobo and knew his weaknesses in deliciousness, so as to express goodwill to the other party. Moreover, because His Royal Highness had a conflict with Fan Shaobo before, Mr. Tian also expressed his intention to ask for guilt and reconcile by doing so. ”
The Seventh Prince muttered: "According to what you say, wouldn't it be more sincere for me to come to the door to confess in person?"
Meng Tian shook his head, "That's why I said that this is Mr. Tian's cleverness." Your Highness, you must remember that you must not come to your door in person until the last moment, when you have to do so. ”
"Why?" the Seventh Prince was puzzled.
Meng Tian said: "Coming to the door to ask for guilt means admitting your mistakes, it means that you have lowered your head, it means that you have been caught by someone, and at that time, the initiative will be in the hands of the other party." Therefore, if you are not cornered, you must not come to the door to ask for sin. ”
Hearing Meng Tian say this, the Seven Princes suddenly realized.
No wonder, when he went to find Tian Qiye, he would be forced to kneel by the other party and suffer humiliation, it turned out that he had already lost from the moment he decided to go to Tian Qiye.
Until now, he hadn't realized that Qiye forced him to kneel because he used those three weaknesses to deliberately test the ambition exposed by Qiye.
If he had told Meng Tian about this, with Meng Tian's ingenuity, he might be able to analyze it, but such a humiliating thing, even if he rotted in his stomach for a lifetime, he would not have said it.
Soon, the two came to the door of Fan Shaobo's room.
The Seventh Prince was about to knock on the door, but was stopped by Meng Tian, "Your Highness, let me come, you have a holiday with Fan Shaobo, I can buffer it." ”
"Then it's a hassle cousin. The Seventh Prince stepped aside.
Meng Tian couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, to be honest, he hadn't reacted from the 'shock' that the Seventh Prince had given him before, for fear that the Seventh Prince would suddenly become that gentlemanly prince again, and something bad would happen. Therefore, it is more reassuring for him to personally take care of these things.
"Snow Country Doctor Meng Tian asked to see Fan Xiangguo. Meng Tian shouted.
With a 'creak', the door opened, and Fan Shaobo walked out, followed by his two daughters, Fan Xishi and Fan Beibei.
Fan Beibei noticed that the Seventh Prince was also on the side, and couldn't help but snort coldly, full of anger.
Fan Shaobo was also obviously displeased, but he restrained himself very well and said calmly: "Master Meng, what is the matter with you coming to the old man?"
Meng Tian: "Mr. Tian Qiye is back. ”
"Sir?" Fan Shaobo was slightly surprised, the word 'sir' is not used casually, only people who are very respectful and have both ability and integrity can be called like this.
"Where is Tian Gongzi now? Why do you want the old man to visit him in person?"
Fan Shaobo asked, his name is Tian Gongzi, not Mr. Tian, in his eyes, Tian Qiye is not qualified to be called 'Mr.' by him.
Meng Tian smiled and said: "Fan Xiangguo's words are serious, Mr. Tian originally planned to come to visit you in person, but after he heard that there was a misunderstanding between you and the Seventh Prince, he specially prepared a table of delicacies that Fan Xiangguo had never eaten before, and apologized to Lord Xiangguo." ”
"A table of food I've never eaten before?"
After hearing this, Fan Shaobo couldn't help laughing and said: "The old man has lived for so many years, and the whole country is north and south, what delicacies and delicacies have not been eaten by me?
Meng Tian's face did not change and said: "I don't know about this, anyway, that's what Mr. Tian said, if Lord Xiangguo doesn't believe it, you can go and see it for yourself." ”
The words are sleek and polite, but they are calm but a little bit want to cover up, which leads people to reverie.
In the past, the Seventh Prince held himself as a prince, always thinking that he was high and despised everything, but when he put down his body, he found that the same words, spoken from different people's mouths, expressed in different tones and ways, will really have different effects.
Invisibly, Meng Tian taught the Seven Princes another lesson.
Fan Shaobo laughed and said: "Tian Gongzi is so gracious, how can the old man excuse himself? ”
"Please. After Meng Tian respectfully made a 'please' gesture, he walked a few steps briskly and walked to the front to lead the way.
Fan Shaobo strolled to follow, and when he passed by the Seventh Prince, he said coldly, "A waste prince, there are actually two such smart and capable subordinates, your life is really good and enviable." ”
Obvious irony!
The Seventh Prince smiled slightly and responded softly, "Thank you Fan Xiangguo for your compliment." ”
A look of surprise flashed in Fan Shaobo's eyes.
In his memory, this gentleman should have a strong sense of self-esteem and not allow himself to be humiliated, just now this sentence is enough to provoke his anger and make him angry.
Why haven't you seen each other for a long time, but the Seven Princes are like a different person, and their joy and anger are invisible?
It's hard to fathom.
Even if Fan Shaobo wanted to break his head, he would never have imagined that compared to the shame and humiliation that Qiye gave him, this verbal provocation was nothing at all. He can endure Qiye, not to mention these provocations?
To a certain extent, it was Qiye who forcibly forced out such a forbearant Seventh Prince.
Chunfeng Pavilion, the attic used by Yangshan Academy to entertain VIPs, can enter and exit here, at least all of them are members of the imperial court of a country, and the official residence is a product, either rich or expensive.
It was winter, the weather was freezing, even if it was in the academy of Lu country, you could feel an obvious chill coming, and today there was a light snowfall, and people who went out were wearing a thick cotton jacket.
In front of the Spring Breeze Pavilion, a man wearing a black cotton robe, standing tall in the wind and snow, looking at the snowflakes falling slowly from the sky, stunned.
I couldn't see the man's face clearly, because he was wearing a grimace mask, and he could only see a pair of eyes hidden in that mask, as bright as stars and extremely deep.
Suddenly, the man turned his head, looked at the group of people walking slowly in the distance, and made a welcome gesture, "Senior Tian Qiye, I have been waiting for Fan Xiangguo here for a long time." ”
Fan Shaobo had already heard some things about Tian Qiye from Fan Xishi, and when he saw his grimace mask, he was not surprised, and said with a smile: "Tian Gongzi, the old man has admired you for a long time, and I finally met you today, fortunately." ”
"Lord Xiangguo praises falsely. Qiye arched his hand to the two Miss Fan and said, "Miss Fan, Miss Beibei, long time no see." ”
Fan Xishi was about to reply, but Fan Beibei took the lead.
I saw Fan Beibei rushing forward and asking, "You are the dog-headed military advisor of the Seventh Prince, and everything he does is that you help him behind his back?"
Qiye was confused, how did he become a dog-headed military advisor inexplicably?
For this unruly young lady, Qiye could only smile bitterly: "It's here, I don't know what Miss Bei Bei has to say?"
got a positive answer, and for a while, all kinds of grievances, grievances, and anger surged into Fan Beibei's heart.
For a long time, the reason why she likes the Seven Princes and was deceived by the Seven Princes in a few words is because of the things that the Seven Princes have done, which makes her feel that the Seven Princes are one in a million young talents and the Prince Charming in her heart.
Even, not long ago, in order to be with the Seventh Prince, she quarreled with her father, turned her face with her sister, and the family was at odds.
It wasn't until the Seventh Prince said those heartless words that she realized that she loved the wrong person.
The person she admired, the person who turned his hands into clouds and turned his hands into rain, was not the Seventh Prince, but the man wearing a grimace mask in front of him.
For a while, this daughter of Xiangguo, Miss Qianjin, only felt that all the misfortunes she had encountered, such as unladylike encounters, family discord, etc., were all because of the masked man in front of her.
Even if this man didn't do anything to her!
Qiye is the culprit, this is the only thought in Fan Beibei's mind at the moment.
Fan Beibei was furious, and couldn't help but scold: "It's all your fault, all day long, wearing a mask and pretending to be a ghost." ”
In the middle of speaking, she suddenly stretched out her right hand, five fingers like claws, swift as the wind, and grabbed Qiye's mask, wanting to lift his true face of Lushan.
Qiye had already sensed that something was wrong with this woman, and was ready to dodge, as soon as Fan Beibei made a move, he took two steps back and dodged the blow.
Qiye scolded angrily: "Fan Xiangguo, is this how you educate your daughter?"
Fan Shaobo hurriedly scolded: "Beibei, don't you stop?"
"Sister, stop. Van Cessch walked forward quickly and hurriedly pulled Van Bebe, who was about to make a second shot.
At the same time, a faint voice came out of Fan Xishi's mouth and entered Nanaba's ears, "Count yourself lucky this time, next time, I will definitely take off the ghost mask on your face." ”
Qiye suddenly couldn't cry or laugh.
Is this Fan Xishi such a small-bellied chicken intestine? Still thinking about his true face?
Of course, it's just a small belly chicken intestine, but it's still so scheming and means, it's hard to prevent, it's really difficult, and it gives Qiye a headache.
provoked such a woman, I don't know if it's good or bad?
