Chapter Forty-Six: Teaching Archery in King Yi's Mansion

The nine people killed by Meng Yishan when he came in were all disciples of the outer altar, responsible for guarding the surroundings and guarding the residents of Xiaoyan Lane, these innocent and implicated neighbors were all tied up in the academy, and the bundles were sturdy, and they were used by the White Lotus Sect as a last resort to coerce Yan Ji.

Mi Bodhisattva and Song Jizu were not in harmony, and they couldn't talk about Mr. Yan's ownership, so these people were locked up overnight, and now they are released by Meng Yishan. When these people went out to look, they were really frightened by the corpses outside.

Everyone scolded Yan Jilai, saying that he was a big bane, provoking those murderers, and asking him to move and not live in the alley to drag everyone down.

Originally, this small Yan Lane had become a place of right and wrong, and Yan Ji also planned to move away, but seeing the attitude of your neighbors, it was also helpless, these ordinary people had really never seen this scene, and he was frightened and frightened, and he could understand it.

At this time, Lao Meng came forward, arrested Qian Lun, and promised to give fifty taels of silver, so that the money account room could write it down, and send a little to each family tomorrow, so that the neighbors could be appeased, and this embarrassing scene was stopped.

For a while, Yan Ji was impressed by him.

Meng Yishan sat in the room and watched the Yan family's father and son pack up, and said to Yan Ji: "I see that Mr. doesn't have to go elsewhere, just live in my house!" Lao Tzu is also a great Confucian, Mencius passed on, and there is nothing to learn from. ”

Yan Ji just saw Meng Yishan acting hotly, but he didn't see that he had a little Confucianism to learn from, so he nodded and said: "It's useless to be a scholar, but a dog can learn some martial arts from Mr. Meng." ”

"But let's say it first, Yan is immoral and incompetent, and he can't help the prince anything! Living with Brother Meng is causing you trouble. ”

For the safety of his son and himself, he, like Song Jizu, had the same idea, and finally had to rely on the power of King Yi.

Meng Yishan was happy to see that he invited Mr. Yan without burning the house, but it seemed that it was more difficult for Yan Ji to really help than the person who asked him.

The bandit is selfish, settle the Yan family's father and son to live with him, and after getting acquainted with each other, you can ask him to be his advisor, and he is not King Yi's military advisor alone! My old Meng can also use it.

During this trip to the Yan family, Meng Yishan gained a lot of wealth, and contained the Yan family's father and son and Wenxian to teach Song Jizu.

Since then, there has been a small official surnamed Song with a gloomy personality and silence all day long.

From the mouth of Song Zhangjiao, Meng Yishan also learned about the situation in the White Lotus Sect, except for the five northern provinces and ten sects, each with one side, the rest of the small factions and gangs are like cattle hairs, Song Jizu because of the idea of preaching and the five ancestors are in line, Wen Xianzong is the most respected and close to the five ancestors in the northern sect. It is also Zhao Yushan's cronies who are ready to use to unify the north.

However, now that the situation has changed, Wenxian Sect has changed hands, Song Zhangjiao wants to take refuge in the Five Ancestors, and Zhao Yushan does not necessarily have him to be a bachelor.

When Meng Yishan asked about King Zhuo Ming mentioned by Mi Bodhisattva, it turned out that the head of the White Lotus Sect was called King Allah, which was taken from "The long night is long, all beings are in the five realms of reincarnation, and the King of Ming comes to the world and illuminates the world."

This Zhuo Ming King is a person who rebelled thirty years ago, it is said that he is a descendant of the orthodox Ming Zun, and the other two masters of the White Lotus Sect at that time are called the Three Saints of the White Lotus, these three saints are the five ancestors Zhao Yushan, the Buddha Mother Tang Sai'er, and this Zhuo Ming King.

Meng Yishan, who listened to it, was very upset, and secretly said how many powerful people there are in this White Lotus Sect? This is too far from the image of a god stick that he thought of simply confusing the public with heresy, and he really couldn't digest it for a while.

The ten northern sects strongly promoted King Zhuo Ming as the main and recognized his status as the sect leader, which means that the forces of the main battle have the upper hand, and it seems that chaos will soon change.

Meng Yishan wrote a letter, connected with the body of Mi Bodhisattva, and asked people to send it to Governor Li. Inform him of this situation, so that the yamen could maintain the situation in the city.

As soon as the Yan family father and son were settled in the Shangshu Mansion, He Shangshu heard that Meng Yishan invited Yan Ji to his own mansion, so he personally came out to meet the guests.

Yan Xin that little ghost praised the layout of He Mansion and the elegance of the old man Shangshu, this kid is quite skilled in geography, and he is indeed talking about the subtleties of architecture, but he exaggerates three points and says it, covering up the defects.

He Shangshu, who listened to it, was overjoyed, and also admired Yan Ji for being really talented and learning, and the sons he taught were so good! He also led the guests to the study to watch a lot of poems, calligraphy and paintings in his collection, Lao Meng only regarded it as a few pieces of broken straw paper, and the Yan family father and son were interested in appreciating them one by one, and Yan Xin had to comment on each good work. Let the old man He, who has no descendants, love this smart Yan family kid very much. I can't hate to be my own grandson.

Meng Yishan yawned when he looked at the painting, so he pulled Yan Ji up, leaving the old and young to praise each other. walked outside and said with a smile: "Since I was a child, my son has a future, and he is the material for being an official!" ”

This kind of praise made Mr. Yan blush a little, his son's personality is indeed a little more sophisticated, and he can only smile in order to escape the self-blame of his godson.

Meng Yishan asked: "I will go to the palace to teach the little prince to ride and shoot in a while, and Mr. will follow me to meet the prince?" ”

Yan Ji's face was straight, and he said: "I am now avoiding Brother Meng, which is already the biggest limit, the prince may not be blue-eyed because of my ability, but just want a reputation for visiting the sage, he strives for talent, and will naturally attract the heroes of the world to follow." There are a lot of strategists in the palace, you can brainstorm, the strategy is rigorous, I am not the kind of person who can cooperate with people, and what I think may not be adopted by everyone, Brother Meng can tell the prince like this, I will not go to the Yi Wangfu, but if there is any difficult matter, I am here to answer him. ”

Meng Yishan smiled: "This is the best!" "Lao Meng thought to himself, here you are equal to Lao Tzu's military advisor, and when you get to the palace, I can control it.

Just after noon, Meng Yishan arrived at King Yi's Mansion, and the subordinate officials on duty in the palace did not dare to slack off on this small inspection that was deeply valued by the prince, and hurriedly let him in.

Old Lord Meng wanted to talk to King Yi about the appearance of the White Lotus Sect in Xiaoyan Lane, but he came out and told him, "The prince is receiving the eunuchs sent by Jingzhong. Officials at all levels are there to narrate.

Zhu Zhanlong once left a message, if Meng Yishan came, he would go directly to teach the little prince to practice shooting. He'll meet him later.

Meng Yishan's nine-grade official position is not qualified to attend this kind of scene.

When he turned around and went to find the little prince, he could fulfill his responsibility as a teacher.

The palace where the little prince Zhu An lived was very close to King Yi's bedroom, Meng Yishan walked into Zhu An's room and saw that the little prince was wearing a tight yellow robe, holding a small vermilion bow in his hand, and was already waiting there respectfully.

Meng Yishan looked at the bow and asked, "Little prince!" What's in your hand? "According to Lao Meng's standards, the bow is as thin as firewood, not for men.

Somehow, Zhu An was very afraid of Meng Yishan's scarface, and muttered, "...... It's a bow and arrow, isn't Master going to teach me archery? ”

Lao Meng was not polite, he grabbed Zhu An's shirt and dragged the little prince to the garden outside to stand down. He grabbed the ornate short bow made of rosewood lacquer, twisted it with both hands, turned it into a strip of wood, and scolded: "Is this girl-like thing also a bow?" If you want to learn to shoot with Lao Tzu, you have to use a strong bow! ”

The little prince was very angry when he saw the bow being destroyed, and felt that Meng Yishan was making things difficult for him, how could a harder bow be so weak as he was? But his father has a tough personality and is always under the protection of Zhu Zhanlong, and Zhu An's temperament has become weak. I didn't dare to argue with Meng Yishan.

Lao Meng looked at the way he wanted to speak and stopped, he felt interesting, and glared at Zhu An with a vicious expression: "What? Not convinced? ”

Zhu An's face turned red, and he said, "No! The eyes under the thick eyebrows couldn't keep it a secret, and there was a hint of anger hidden in it.

Meng Yishan had the intention to provoke this little guy's temperament, and sneered: "If you are not convinced, just say, grandma's, soft as mud!" ”

Juan's fire came up, and he finally shouted: "I can't pull it!" Meng Yishan grabbed Zhu An's shirt, kicked him in the ass, and scolded: "Little rabbit, say it again!" ”

Because the little prince practiced martial arts, the rest of the people were afraid that he would be thin-skinned, so they had long avoided it. There were only two eunuchs left, and they were already so frightened that they didn't dare to think about who the rabbit cub's Lao Tzu was.

The angry little prince roared again: "I can't pull it!" There was a sense of courage between the thick eyebrows.

Meng Yishan laughed for a while, and said in his heart: "This kid is also full of courage, it seems that the prince wants me to teach him, maybe he wants to change his son's temperament!" ”

This time, he said with a pleasant face: "If you can't pull it, just talk about it, Lao Tzu didn't let you use the iron bow directly!" ”

The little prince was a little embarrassed, he met a master like Meng Yishan, and he didn't know whether it was lucky or unlucky, and then Meng Yishan told Zhu An the fingering and steps of opening the bow, and asked him to pose down, and the time to stretch his arms and hold the three pillars of incense was qualified, and he had to redo it if it was broken.

Zhu An practiced for a while, and he was a little unstable, and Meng Yishan had no intention of watching how he practiced, so he called an attendant and said: "The little prince is hungry after practicing martial arts, and he needs to be well nourished, so hurry up and make a few good dishes and bring them up." Meng Yishan said in a panic without blushing.

Beads of sweat were already rolling down Zhu An's forehead, flowing down his neck into his clothes, and when the north wind blew, it was cold to the bones, which has always been enjoyed by the master and suffered by the apprentice.

Lao Meng hid in the pavilion in the garden, tasted the craftsmanship of the chef of the palace, and told Zhu An to correct his posture from time to time. A few tips.

Zhu An's tenacity and unyielding temper were a big surprise to Meng Yishan, every time he stood on his feet and stiffened and fell, he still stubbornly got up and did it, which made him like this kid a little.

At this moment, I heard someone shouting, "An'er! Lao Meng followed the sound and saw that Prince Yi walked into the garden with a palace beauty. Zhu Zhanlong also saw Lao Meng, who was munching on the case there, and said with a smile from afar: "Yishan is really interested!" ”

The prince hugged the woman and walked towards Meng Yishan.

The woman had apricot eyes and a nose, long willow eyebrows, and a kind of strength in her softness. The tassels between the palace dresses and skirts are decorated with colorful colors, and there is a kind of charm of flowing people.

Lao Meng guessed that this apricot-eyed beauty might be the concubine of King Yi.

I saw Zhu An running over and holding the beauty's hand and saying, "Father, mother!" ”。

The woman took Zhu An in her arms with pity, and the little prince's expression was also quite attached. is so young, it turned out to be Zhu An's mother, which made Meng Yishan a little unbelievable.

"This is An'er's mother, Concubine Chen!" King Yi said.

King Yi first asked Zhu An if he was lazy and tired of studying, and warned him to ask Meng Yishan for more benefits in the future, so the beautiful Concubine Chen took Zhu An down.

Zhu Zhanlong asked someone to warm the wine and reorganized the wine. is not afraid of the cold, just in this pavilion and Meng Yishan drunk, Meng Yishan told all the things in Xiaoyan Lane today, Zhu Zhanlong asked in great detail about the changes in the White Lotus Sect, and when he heard Meng Yishan say that Yan Ji had lived in Shangshu Mansion, King Yi's eagle eyes were half-wide, staring at Meng Yishan fiercely, secretly thinking that this military advisor had arrived. Is it for your personal use? Or are you loyal to the king? ”

King Yi was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Since Mr. Yan has been invited, you don't have to force me if you don't come to see me, let's let him do it himself!" ”

Zhu Zhanlong poured Meng Yishan a glass of wine and said, "Marquis Weiyuan should have told you, this king doesn't want to be a vassal king in one place!" ”

Meng Yishan saw that he had found out about this matter, and immediately said, "I follow the prince!" ”

King Yi said: "Well, Gaohou and I are very fond of you, and I hope not to live up to the expectations of this king." ……”

The prince seemed to have something on his mind, and then he drank the wine cup by the cup, and stopped talking, Meng Yishan accompanied him, and the prince of Shaoqing said: "The eunuch bully me too much, and the eunuch who came today brought a message from Cao Jixiang, asking the palace to help thoroughly investigate the case of the disappearance of the six salt boats in the Yellow River. What is the place of the lonely Yiwang Mansion? The patrol house of the Yamen? ”

Zhu Zhanlong threw the wine glass on the ground angrily, and his anger did not subside.

Meng Yishan pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Then Cao Jixiang has a long hand, why did he ask about the case of the Inspection Division?" We don't have to worry about him? ”

King Yi snorted and said, "The ship has hidden gold and silver treasures for Cao Jixiang!" ”

Meng Yishan moderately expressed surprise and said, "Really? It's unthinkable. ”

King Yi's expression was obviously angry, and he said: "Zhu Qiyu ordered me to privately cast salt and iron, embezzle people's houses, and the guards and armor far exceed those of the kings, and ask me to cut down the guards, this stinky boy!" Not the son of man! ”

The uncle scolded the emperor's nephew without scruples. King Yi said to Meng Yishan: "The emperor sent the inner eunuch to supervise and verify these, and none of these crimes can be washed away. Do you know? ”

Meng Yishan could only nod, he already felt that the trend of the situation was a little too fast, and he could not withdraw himself.

King Yi said: "It costs money to fight, and money to train soldiers, so you can do one thing for Lone." ”

"Please command!"
