"Lord Bai is too vigilant, isn't he?"

"Master Meng, it's better to be careful when you enter the capital." Chu Mufeng put away the silver needle that was not abnormal, "Please use it." ”

Bafang's gaze swirled between the two, and when he heard Chu Mufeng say this, he immediately picked up a piece of dim sum on the plate, "Young Master, I'll try poison for you first." ”

Meng Changqing sighed, "Even if someone wants to harm me, they won't do anything in the Yamen of the Ministry of Officials." She took a sip of the tea next to her, and she hadn't seen such a delicate snack next to her for a long time.

It's just that the physical fatigue makes her have no heart to eat.

She sat on the chair, and even squinted like this, and when she opened her eyes again, she was already standing in front of her from afar.

Meng Changqing stood up suddenly, and without waiting for himself to stand firmly, he saluted at the other party and said, "It's really rude to the lower official, please ...... Lord Shangshu."

"Alright, alright." Si Yuandao smiled and waved his hand, "If you can get here today, you must be in a hurry on the road, you must be tired." ”

As he spoke, he walked up to the main seat, "Young Master Meng, sit down and speak." ”

Meng Changqing said: "Thank you Lord Shangshu for your compassion, but Xia Guan is still standing, and he can't help but want to sleep as soon as he sits down." ”

"Okay, you can do whatever you want." Si Yuandao sent someone to bring hot tea, "The rebuke to you, although it is from our ministry, but it is not the ministry that wants to issue it, the words in the letter are sharp, and it is not what I meant, you have to understand my difficulties." ”

"Yes."

"You don't have the identity of the prince's companion now, if you want to meet Your Majesty, you have to be like other local officials, wait for us to report to the Ministry of Rites, and then wait for the Ministry of Rites to pass through, and then you have to follow and learn the rules of the palace, this process will take many days, you have to wait patiently in the capital."

Speaking of this, he put down the teacup in his hand, "Speaking of which, you grew up in the palace, and you are more familiar with those rules than us, so you didn't need to do this, but the rules are the rules, and they can't be easily changed." ”

In the last sentence, Meng Changqing heard the other party's warning.

"Yes, the lower official knows."

Si Yuandao picked up the envelope in his hand, "You still take this letter, and when you meet the saint, you have to take it with you." ”

Meng Changqing hurriedly stepped forward to take it.

"You got the signature seal from You Shilang, You Shilang, do you remember, you saw it before.

I still have official business to attend to, and I'll invite you to tea another day when I'm free. ”

"I'm delaying the adult's time, Changqing will say goodbye today, and I should invite the adult to drink tea another day, and invite the adult to enjoy the light when the time comes."

As soon as he went out of this room, Bafang breathed a sigh of relief, Meng Changqing raised his eyes to look at him, and he slammed back again.

It wasn't until Meng Changqing completed all the formalities and left the yamen of the Ministry of Officials that he finally sighed.

"It's uncomfortable." Bafang said, "How much I want to go back to the capital in Beishan County, how much I want to go back to Beishan County now." Hey, I'm still comfortable staying in Beishan County, and after only staying in it for a while, I feel a sore back. ”

Chu Mufeng smiled lightly, "At the feet of the Son of Heaven, it is naturally different. ”

"He rode on horseback because he had a sore back." Meng Changqing turned over and got on his horse, "Just rest for two days." ”

After the three of them returned home, Dai Dongwen immediately brought them hot water to wash their hands, and then asked someone to bring breakfast up.

"Listen to Lord Shangshu, I still have to wait in the capital, Bafang, after you finish eating, write a letter and send it to Liangzhou Post Station, tell them that everything is fine."

Happo wondered, "Why don't you write it yourself?" ”

"I have something else to do."

"Master Meng also said that I was too vigilant." Chu Mufeng said, "You yourself are also very careful." ”

"I've heard some of the methods of the previous dynasty." Meng Changqing said, "I have always been very careful with letters, no matter where they are. ”

"Your Majesty, Young Master Meng entered the city from the north gate at five o'clock this morning." After Gonggong Qian waited for the emperor to go down to court, he immediately told him the news.

"He's fast." The Emperor walked quickly into the imperial study as he spoke.

"Yes, I think that Young Master Meng must have come to the capital immediately after receiving the letter, and it will take seven or eight days to calculate this journey, and this journey of thousands of miles, I am afraid that it will be a day and night, and I have never slept a single night."

The emperor looked at Gonggong Qian, who was speaking.

"You speak for him like this, what good does he give you?"

Father-in-law Qian immediately knelt down, "Your Majesty, there has never been any private contact between the villain and Young Master Meng, and he has never received any benefits from him." ”

"Get up, I know you."

When Father-in-law Qian got this sentence, he got up from the ground and wiped the sweat on his forehead as he crawled.

The emperor asked, "How many people did he bring into Beijing?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Young Master Meng is accompanied by six Royal Forest Army, ten Liangzhou Mansion officers, and a child adopted by General Meng, who should always like to follow Young Master Meng."

"What about the soldiers I gave him? Why don't you bring one, and still use the servants of Liangzhou Mansion? ”

Father-in-law Qian couldn't answer the emperor's question, so he asked another question, "When is Your Majesty going to see Young Master Meng?" ”

"Let him rest at home for two more days, wait for the documents from the Ministry of Rites to be submitted, and then the Ministry of Rites will arrange it."

"Yes. Does Your Majesty want to meet Lord Bai? ”

"There's no need to see him, send another Imperial Forest Army over, let him go home and have a look." The emperor said, "Let the people around the three princes be careful." ”
