Chapter 174: Idle people and others retreat

"The Imperial Forest Army is ordered to guard the Meng Mansion, and the idle people will retreat!"

As soon as Meng Xiaole turned around, he saw a team of Imperial Forest soldiers coming with knives, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly left.

didn't invite Meng Changqing out, he couldn't explain to the son of the Zou family, but he didn't dare to say goodbye without saying goodbye because he was afraid of the other party's family background, so he could only ask for a scolding again.

"But something happened to the Meng family?"

As soon as he entered the private room, he heard the son of the Zou family ask, "What did that Royal Forest Army do in the past just now?" ”

"Back to Zou Gongzi's words, he said that he was ordered to guard the Meng Mansion and not let idle people approach." Meng Xiaole said: "I didn't dare to fight with the people from the palace, so I had to come back." I'm really sorry I couldn't bring Meng Changqing to you. ”

He took out a silver ingot that Zou Qiyu gave him before, "This money will be returned to you." ”

said that he wanted to pay it back, but he was reluctant to put the money on the table.

Zou Qiyu saw it, "Take it, there will be a time when you will be used in the future." ”

Meng Xiaole took it with great gratitude, "Then I'll leave first." ”

After Meng Xiaole left, Zou Qiyu immediately settled the account and went to the Meng family to observe.

After knowing it, he immediately got into the sedan chair and entered the palace.

He came to the prince's place, where the third prince was listening to his husband's lecture.

Zou Qiyu couldn't get in for a while, so he could only wait outside.

After the half-pillar incense time passed, Mr. came out after finishing his schoolwork, saw Zou Qiyu standing under the corridor, frowned and sighed, "Back then, Meng Changqing accompanied the prince, and he always arrived before the prince, prepared a product for the prince, and even the homework to be taught that day was also marked out in advance. ”

Speaking of this, Mr. turned his head and glanced into the room, "I don't require you to be like Meng Changqing, but you can't rely on the favor of His Royal Highness and become more and more presumptuous, what kind of place should you be?" ”

"I'm sorry sir, I got up in the morning and felt uncomfortable in my abdomen, I was afraid of being rude in the palace, so I drank a bowl of medicine at home, and I didn't dare to enter the palace until I was better."

"You've used excuses like this too many times!" The gentleman obviously didn't believe it, and snorted and shook his sleeves and left.

Zou Qiyu stood in place and didn't dare to move, and when the gentleman walked away, he was relieved and walked into the house quickly.

"Your Highness."

The third prince's gaze moved from the book, "Come so late, you should have seen Meng Changqing, right?" What did he say? ”

Zou Qiyu's tone was full of emptiness, "Back to Your Highness, I received your message in the morning, and I have been waiting near the Meng family.

Thinking that I, as your companion, would inevitably arouse the vigilance of the East Palace, so I found the Meng family of Meng Changqing's same sect and asked them to come to the door to invite someone. ”

The more the third prince listened, the more impatient he became.

"I never thought that Meng Changqing would not be able to see the brothers of the sect."

The third prince rolled his eyes, "His relationship with the clan has always been bad, and everyone in the palace knows it, why do you still let those people go?" ”

"I didn't expect that their relationship was so bad that they couldn't even get over on the surface."

"It's not just that you can't get over it on the surface." The third prince said, "If it weren't for the murder and the law, Meng Changqing would have slashed them with a knife." What's going on with you? Those people can't invite Meng Changqing, won't you send other people? ”

"Your Highness is angry, I want to send someone else, but the door of the Meng Mansion was blocked by the Imperial Forest Army."

"What?" The third prince put down the book in his hand, "Why?" ”

"This ...... I don't know, it's just that those Imperial Forest Army suddenly came to the door, and they all stood at the door of Meng's house, saying that they didn't let the idlers and others get close. Zou Qiyu said, "I don't know if those people are going to protect him or guard him." ”

"The call for the Imperial Guards could only be the will of my father." The third prince frowned and thought, but in the end he didn't come up with a reason, "I have to go into the inner palace, you go out of the palace first, and I will send someone to inform you if there is something." ”

"Yes." Zou Qiyu asked again, "Then Meng Changqing, do you still have to find a way to contact him?" ”

"Mr. said that what Meng Changqing did at the border can be regarded as disrupting the order of officialdom, and I don't know how my father will deal with him. The emperor's heart is unpredictable, it's best not to take the lead at this time, you wait for my notice. ”

"Yes."

What happened to the princes, and even what they said in the room, all reached the emperor's ears in the middle of half a pillar of incense.

"He's cautious." The emperor said to the palace maid who delivered the news: "Go back, be careful." ”

"What's going on over there in the East Palace?" The emperor asked Father-in-law Qian.

After Gonggong Qian retreated, after only a cup of tea, he came to report with the news of the East Palace, "Your Majesty, the crown prince learned the news of Young Master Meng's return to Beijing, and wanted to see Young Master Meng, but was persuaded by Master Taifu, who was by his side at the time. ”

"He is obedient, and I hope he can tell what to listen to and what not to hear."

Father-in-law Qian didn't answer this, "Commander Wei sent news from there, when the Imperial Forest Army arrived, there was a person who called himself Meng Xiaole standing at the door of Meng's house and making noise, before him, there was also a person named Meng Xiaowen who went, but he was scolding at the door, which attracted many people to watch the excitement. ”

"What about Meng Changqing? Let them be noisy? ”

Young Master Meng ridiculed Meng Xiaowen a few words, and ...... Kicked him. ”

"It's like something he can do." The emperor dipped his pen in ink, "I went to Liangzhou for a year and didn't learn to be patient, and he still has a ground mill." ”

Many people outside were speculating about what it meant that the emperor sent a team of imperial guards to stand at the gate of Meng's mansion.

Meng Changqing only found out before dinner that there were other Imperial Forest soldiers in front of his house.

She had lunch and slept until it was dark.

When she woke up, she felt sore, her waist and abdomen were cold, and she had no strength, so she poured a few glasses of hot water before she forced herself out of the bedroom.

Bafang immediately reported the situation at the front door, "Because it was the people brought by Lord Bai, and he said that those people were just here to protect your safety, not to restrict the entry and exit of people in the house, so I didn't call you." ”

"Where's Lord Bai?" Meng Changqing asked.

"Drink medicine in the guest room."

"Drink medicine?"

Bafang scratched his cheeks, "I ate too much at noon, and I haven't been able to recover, and I was uncomfortable for two hours before I was willing to go to the doctor to see, and the doctor prescribed a prescription, saying that I would be fine after drinking the medicine." ”

"Let's take a look."

The two came to the guest room, and Bafang stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Lord Bai, my young master has come to see you, have you slept?" Is it easy for us to get in? ”

Footsteps immediately sounded inside, and soon the door was opened, "Lord Meng, I have already drunk the medicine, and I am much better." ”

"Then I'll rest assured, I'll let Bafang guard you all night, and call him if you feel uncomfortable."

"Not necessarily." Chu Mufeng hurriedly waved his hand, "The eight directions are also running around for days and need to rest, and besides, I'm fine." ”

"Lord Bai, don't shirk it." Bafang stood next to him, "You come to my house as a guest, you have to have someone to guard you if you are sick, my young master is afraid of being a stranger, you are embarrassed to open your mouth, so you called me."

Don't feel sorry for me, I'll just sleep next door to you. ”
