Meng Xingci stepped forward: "This is Master Xu?" ”

Xu Meng raised his eyebrows: "I heard that Lord Meng wants to do a business with me?" ”

Meng Xingci groaned and said, "To be precise, it is to send a business to Master Xu's family." After a pause, she said in a deep voice: "On the night of August 14, the scholars will carry a large amount of grain out of the city. ”

Xu Meng's eyes flashed: "Lord Meng, as an official of the imperial court, revealed such news to me, isn't it because I Xu is brave and unscrupulous?" ”

Meng Xingci said lightly: "It's been a few months since the official came to Hedong, and the big boss Xu has not done a lot of cases, but I haven't made any moves, why does the big boss think?" ”

Xu Meng said proudly: "That's because I'm familiar with the terrain, and my brothers are brave and loyal, you can't kill me!" ”

Meng Xingci chuckled, and Xu Meng's face changed suddenly: "What are you laughing at?" ”

"It's really impossible to rely on the county government's service, but what if the goose returns to the army?" Meng Xingci's words made Xu Meng's face change, and she continued: "I have a great friendship with the prince of Dingyong Hou, and this little brother Jiang next to me is also from the Yan Hui Army. If the official really wants to kill you, it's just a matter of words. ”

Xu Meng narrowed his eyes: "Why is that?" ”

"I sent someone to check, this gang of mountain bandits in charge of Xu Da only robbed the scholars, not the caravans, and did not hurt the people. I respect the great thief and the thief, not to mention that the brothers on this mountain are also people who have been forced by the scholars to go on, so I did not send someone to exterminate them. Meng Xing said solemnly.

Jiang Xiaofei glanced at Meng Xingci and admired her ability to tell nonsense with her eyes open. They didn't move Xu Meng, but they knew that Xu Meng was Zhao Xuan's person, and they wanted to stay still and find Zhao Xuan's lair.

Xu Meng's face was a little smug, "Master Meng is also a good official. ”

Meng Xing said: "I came to find the master of Xu, also to purge the Hedong clan. If you are willing to cooperate with me, this batch of grain will be regarded as a gift from me to Master Xu's family. After a pause, she glanced at Xu Meng meaningfully: "I remind the big boss that from August 14, there will be a steady stream of grain leaving Hedong, which is a large amount of grain." ”

Xu Meng's expression froze, and there was greed in his eyes: "With so much food, there must be a lot of guards escorting it, right?" ”

Meng Xingci chuckled, but his expression was very indifferent: "I gave you a chance, as for whether you can take it or not, it is Xu Dangjia's ability." ”

Xu Meng laughed loudly, and suddenly his laughter stopped, and his expression was proud: "Master Meng has said so, then Xu will show Master Meng if I have the ability to do this." After a pause, he squinted at Meng Xingci and said, "Lord Meng will go to such great lengths to send me food, what good will it do to Lord Meng?" ”

Meng Xingci was silent for a moment, and then said: "The people of Hedong were deeply harmed by the Shi clan, and my heart is very painful. If we want to solve the situation in Hedong, we still need to figure it out slowly. Half of this food, I hope that Xu Da's family can distribute it to the local people. ”

"Lord Meng really loves the people like a son." Xu Meng said meaningfully.

"It's just a matter of being in his place." Meng Xingci didn't care much, "Then Xu Dangjia agreed?" ”

Xu Meng's eyes flashed, "If you deceive me......"

Meng Xingci chuckled, looking arrogant: "You are a bandit, I am an official, I don't need to rely on bandits to achieve success." What's more, if I want to suppress bandits, I don't need to take the risk myself. ”

Xu Meng groaned: "I need to discuss it before replying to Lord Meng." ”

Meng Xingci's eyes glanced at the back hall, and she smiled slightly: "This is natural, then the official will leave first." ”

Xu Meng said: "Send Master Meng down the mountain." ”

Meng Xingci and the others turned to leave, and Xu Meng immediately entered the back hall.

"Childe, do you think what Master Meng said is true or false?" Xu Meng asked respectfully.

Zhao Xuan sat in a chair with a teacup in front of him, he poured a cup of tea, and seemed to be smiling: "The eldest grandson of the dignified Meng family, he came to your thief's den to deceive you alone?" What do you have to deceive her? ”

She can't even look down on him, can she still calculate a Xu Meng? I'm afraid that Xu Meng is really needed, after all, there are some things that bandits can do, but officials can't do.

Xu Meng was shocked: "Then what she said is true?" Do you really want to give us this batch of food? ”

Zhao Xuan raised his head, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and said slowly: "I'm afraid that she is going to attack the Shi clan." ”

Xu Meng said: "If Master Meng succeeds, isn't it unfavorable to Gongzi?" ”

"Even if you don't help, she has other options, why use the mantis arm as a car?" Zhao Xuan asked rhetorically: "What's more, isn't there still a pay?" The grain stored by several great scholars can also be allowed to go on a trip in person, which is a big deal. All the people from my side have been transferred to you for use, and the food will be transported away as soon as it arrives. ”

Xu Meng was shocked: "It's the son, the subordinates must not let the son down!" After a pause, he asked in a low voice, "Childe believes in Master Meng so much?" Can she really do it? What if the food of the nobles does not come? ”

A sneer appeared at the corner of Zhao Xuan's mouth, and finally gave Xu Meng a look: "If you miss, she can't miss it!" Do your own thing. ”

Xu Meng felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he vaguely knew that Zhao Xuan had won over Meng Xingci, but he didn't expect Zhao Xuan to value Meng Xingci so much.

Zhao Xuan didn't pay attention to what Xu Meng thought, his eyes were long, and he wanted to know what Meng Xingci would do. How can she let the Shi clan carry grain out of the city on August 14, and what is her plan?

He was really too curious, what surprise would that amazing and glamorous young man give him this time?

August 14, the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, according to tradition, this is the day when the Taishou Mansion feasts the city sergeants. Because the tax grain began to be collected on the second day of the eighth month, and the harvest was just finished on August 14, this can be regarded as a way for the imperial court to strengthen ties with the scholars.

This year, it was the first time that Meng Xingci had a banquet for the Hedong scholars, and several major scholars in Hedong attached great importance to it. Bai Weiyi originally wanted to put pressure on the Shi clan not to participate and embarrass Meng Xing.

But it was refuted by Bai Zhilun, Bai Zhilun said: "Lord Meng is the emperor's personal guard, and the Bai family doesn't give face to Lord Meng, that is, they don't give face to the emperor." Now the second brother is still in Beijing, and his father doesn't want to think about the Bai family, so he has to take care of the second brother. ”

Bai Weiyi immediately became dumbfounded, so he had to pinch his nose and admit it, without giving this ridiculous order.

Because if Bai Weiyi let it go out like this, he would find that there were not many scholars who were willing to take the Bai family as the leader.

In the successive confrontations between the Bai family and Meng Xingci, the Bai family has fallen behind, and the Bai family has gradually lost its influence on the Jiangdong clan.

It's just that Meng Xingci hasn't really done anything to the Bai family yet, and Bai Weiyi hasn't noticed it yet.
