In the land of Gyeonggi, there are many people coming and going, and the early risers have set up their stalls early to prepare for the day's business.

The Meng family arranged breakfast, and there were scattered footsteps in the corridor of the inn early in the morning.

The knock on the door sounded, Chen Mingye opened his eyes from pranayama, and when he opened the door, he saw that the shopkeeper was looking at himself with a tray with a smile on his face: "Excuse me, guest officer." ”

"Thank you little second brother," Chen Mingye stretched out his hand to take it and asked casually, "What time is it?"

"It's already the third quarter of the son. Xiao Er replied.

"Are all the people who came with me packing up their things and getting ready to go?" asked Chen Mingye again.

"It's all sitting in the hall, don't worry. Xiao Er smiled and said.

"Okay, thank you little brother. ”

"Childe is too polite, the little one will go and get busy first, if you need anything, call me again." Xiao Er said and smiled at Chen Mingye, turned around and went back to work.

Chen Mingye turned around and closed the door, and dragged Xiaohong, who was lying on the bed unscrupulously, up directly: "Xiaohong, you seem to be getting lazier and lazier, since Qingxuan is either eating or sleeping, I haven't seen you practice seriously." ”

Xiaohong didn't seem to wake up from her sleep, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Go away, go away!"

Chen Mingye stretched out his hand and said a light chestnut: "You are quite horizontal." ”

The little girl snorted softly, then she rubbed her sleepy eyes, and saw Chen Mingye in front of her in a daze: "Huh, why are you, little junior brother, just now there was obviously a big bear who wanted to rob me of my fruit to eat." ”

Chen Mingye slapped his forehead: "Are you sleeping stupidly, where did the big bear come from?" ”

"Hmm," Xiaohong seemed to be still immersed in a dream, and her little face was still a little aggrieved, "That is obviously the fruit that Xiaohong discovered first." ”

Chen Mingye pointed to the table helplessly: "Get up quickly, there is no fruit, but there is also something delicious." ”

"Huh?" Xiaohong's eyes lit up suddenly, and he was about to get out of bed and go to the table.

"Sure enough, the only thing that can trick you out of bed is food. Chen Mingye helplessly reached out and grabbed the back of the little girl, and said to her, "Go wash first." ”

"Hmph," although Chen Mingye's throat was ruthlessly choked, Xiaohong's expression was resolute and she didn't intend to give in at all.

"The sooner you wash up, the sooner you eat. Chen Mingye reminded him with a friendly reminder.

"Okay," the little girl reluctantly compromised on the face of the food.

Chen Mingye let go of his hand, Xiaohong's footsteps slipped and immediately slipped out, turned around and secretly glanced at him, saw that his eyes were locked on his body, and he pouted unhappily, so he washed up honestly.

Chen Mingye opened the window, Yixian County does not occupy a large area, this inn occupies a certain high position, and he can even see the general scene of the entire city at a glance.

Further north of Yi County, about 100 li, that is, the boundary of Kyoto.

After his grandfather retired from the front, he has been living in Kyoto for the elderly, and he has been living in Beizhou with his father all the year round, and only when his father goes to Beijing to report on his work will he take him back to Kyoto, which is often his most leisurely day.

Without him, there is a grandfather who is used to it.

Chen Mingye vaguely remembers that when he was young, he was young and vigorous, and he once rode a horse alone and went out of Kyoto for hundreds of miles. Later, he was caught up by his grandfather himself, and his father jumped to his feet in anger, and as a result, he vowed to be punished severely, but he was also stopped by his grandfather.

The Duke of Qiguo, who was rumored to have slaughtered the Three Kingdoms with a cold face and fangs, has always been smiling in his impression.

Chen Mingye couldn't help but smile, but his shirt was pulled. He looked back and saw that Xiaohong was looking up at him.

"Little junior brother, don't you have breakfast, what are you looking at the window?" Xiaohong looked at him very curiously, and stood on tiptoe to look out the window as she said this.

Chen Mingye laughed, he couldn't help but wander again, although Kyoto is not his long-term residence, in the end, it is also his hometown, and he is somewhat homesick.

"It's nothing," he shook his head, "Let's go, let's have breakfast together, the Meng family should be about to leave." ”

"Okay. Red nodded.

When the two of them walked out of the room after eating, they happened to see Meng Shi also coming out of the opposite room, and Chen Mingye hurriedly took Xiaohong over to say hello.

"I've met Aunt Meng, and I respectfully ask for good morning. Chen Mingye saluted respectfully, and Xiaohong on the side also saluted.

"Morning, night. Meng Shi slept peacefully, and his mood seemed to be good, and he glanced at Chen Mingye, and at the same time, his eyes swept over Xiaohong on the side.

"It's been a long journey, Aunt Meng has worked hard. Chen Mingye thought for a while and continued, "The day before yesterday, Aunt Meng gave the scroll to the juniors, and the juniors liked it very much......

"Oh, if you like it. Meng Shi seemed to have expected it, and smiled kindly, "I said it, if you like to keep it." ”

"That junior is cheeky. Chen Mingye smiled.

Meng Shi glanced at him: "Don't be polite, that's it, it's good." ”

Chen Mingye scratched his head, and asked Meng Shi to take the first step, and he followed half a step slower, and Xiaohong was simply hugged into his arms again.

Meng asked about some trivial things along the way, Chen Mingye went back one by one, and when the group came to the lobby of the inn, they saw that Meng Che had already stayed there.

"I've seen my mother, Brother Chen. Seeing the two of them coming down from upstairs, Meng Che hurriedly stood up.

"Have you ever reviewed your homework today?" Meng Shi glanced at his son and asked lightly.

"Back to my mother, I've finished my studies. Meng Che hurriedly replied.

"It's good, I'll go back to Kyoto today, your father has been worried that you will waste your studies by volunteering to accompany me to Yuzhou these days, you should be diligent, so you can have an explanation with him." Meng Shi thought for a while, and glanced slightly towards Chen Mingye, "What are the plans for Xiao Ye to go to Kyoto?"

Meng Che was slightly stunned when he heard the title of Xiao Ye, and then replied: "Lord Qiqi, Mother, I have invited Brother Chen to live in the mansion, and Brother Chen has already agreed. ”

"Oh?" Meng Shi smiled slightly, "That's fine, you can exchange more knowledge, and your father and I will be more relieved." ”

Meng Che replied to some daily questions, and Meng Shi saw that he had not slackened, so he relieved himself and asked him to communicate more with Chen Mingye, and then went to the car.

Meng Che glanced at Chen Mingye: "Let Brother Chen smile." ”

"It is a blessing that the family education is strict, and the teachings of adults are even more rare. Chen Mingye said this and patted him on the shoulder, "Actually, I envy you." ”

Meng Che scratched his head: "Brother Chen said that he laughed, and I also knew in my heart that they were for my good, but I still had some resistance in my heart. ”

"Normal," Chen Mingye smiled faintly, "I won't suffer if I listen more." ”

"Hahaha," Meng Che shrugged, "Don't say anything, let's go." ”

Meng Che still decided to ride a horse, this time Xiaohong refused to go to the carriage no matter what, Chen Mingye had no choice but to hold her in his arms and turn over. The little girl secretly showed a cunning smile that had succeeded in her treacherous scheme, and lay down at a different angle in Chen Mingye's arms.

This time, it was a rare sunny day with clear weather all the way, and even the coldness of early winter dissipated a lot.

Chen Mingye and Meng Che chatted all the way, while Xiaohong threw some snacks and candies into her mouth from time to time, and her little mouth basically didn't stop.

For nearly half a day, the majestic silhouette of Kyoto Castle was already in sight.

Meng Che raised his whip and pointed to the Xiongcheng in the distance, looked at Chen Mingye and said, "Brother Chen, have you been to Kyoto before?"

Chen Mingye looked at the city in the distance with a complicated expression and shook his head slightly.

"Well, when I enter Kyoto, I must introduce you to Brother Chen's scenery in Kyoto, this Kyoto brings together the prosperity of the world, Brother Chen, you will be blessed when the time comes!" Meng Che said and smiled evilly at Chen Mingye.

"Hmph!" Xiao Hong was keenly aware of the change in Meng Che's tone, and raised her head angrily and glared at him.

Chen Mingye suddenly laughed, Meng Che, this kid, has a really big mouth.

The two were about to say something, but there was a loud sound of horses' hooves on the official road facing them.

Chen Mingye stared at it, but it was a group of horses rushing towards him.

Meng Che on the side also looked up, who knew that after only one glance, his face changed, and he had already blurted out a low scolding: "Why are those birdmen!"

When Chen Mingye saw him like this, the corners of his mouth hooked, and he suddenly had a guess in his heart.

Sure enough, the vigorous horse team was about to pass by them, but who knew that a young man in the lead glanced at Meng Che's side, and immediately began to rein in the horse.

"Meng Che, why are you here!" the leader of a young man in a riding uniform waved his hand at Meng Che and asked.

Chen Mingye stared at it, and saw the young man's brocade hat mink fur, the brim of the hat was embroidered with a brocade edge, printed with hundreds of inverted blessing character patterns and a piece of excellent quality jade on the forehead, showing an extraordinary identity.

"Meng Che?" The remaining youths who hadn't noticed it at first also turned their heads and looked at Meng Che carefully.

"Meng has seen you. Meng Che smiled bitterly and arched his hand at the group of young people in front of him.

In the car in front of him, Meng Shi seemed to hear the noise here, stopped the coachman, lifted the window curtain and looked over: "Che'er, what's the matter?"

The young man in the lead turned his head, and immediately showed a smile at Meng Shi, and bowed on his horse: "I've seen the Marquise." ”

Meng Shi glanced at the young man and nodded: "You are the second lang of the Zhongyi Hou family, right?"

The young man replied loudly: "Madame has a good memory, in Xia Yan Wendao, Madame can remember, and the younger generation is very honored." ”

"Hehe, a few years ago, a few of you juniors made a big fuss in the Lantern Festival Night Market, I remember that you were the leader, right?" Meng Shi looked at him and smiled.

Yan Wendao hurriedly arched his hand: "The younger generation is embarrassed, he did some ridiculous things inadvertently in the early years, which made his wife laugh." ”

"It doesn't matter, who is not young and frivolous, my unsuccessful boy can catch up with half of your ability, I am comfortable. Meng Shi said lightly, stretched out his finger and pointed at Chen Mingye beside Meng Che and said, "That's a nephew of mine in Yuzhou, who just came to Beijing to take the exam this year, so he came with us by the way, you can take care of it in the future." ”

Meng Che was stunned for a moment when he heard this, while Chen Mingye still looked smiling.

Yan Wendao was slightly stunned, and then nodded: "We boys grew up together, he is not only the cousin of Brother Meng Che, but also a friend of several of us, so Mrs. doesn't have to worry." ”

"Okay, it's rare that Meng Che just came back and ran into you, you get together, I have been sitting for a long time with my old bones, and I have to go back to rest. Meng Shi frowned and sighed.

"Madame's health is important, so the juniors won't bother. Yan Wendao hurriedly replied.

"Mother walks slowly. ”

"Aunt Meng walked slowly. ”

Meng Che and Chen Mingye said in unison, Meng Shi glanced at the two of them deeply, put down the curtains, and said lightly: "Okay, let's go first." ”

The coachman drove a sound, and the Meng family's motorteam continued to move forward, while Meng Che and Chen Mingye still stopped and looked at the young people opposite.

"Meng Che, I haven't seen you for nearly half a month, you kid is chic, you left Beijing without saying a word. Yan Wendao turned his head to look at Meng Che and said with a slight smile.

Meng Che glanced at the other party with his eyes, and said lightly: "Yan Wendao, what am I doing, there is no need to report to you." ”

Chen Mingye hugged Xiaohong and quietly watched the confrontation between the two.

In addition to the leading Yan Wendao, there were four people behind him, all of whom were mink fur brocade clothes, with a wide belt around their waists, and a treasure jade hanging on them, each dressed up, all of them were romantic.

Chen Mingye took a closer look, without exception, they were all children of the Kyoto military generals family, and they were somewhat impressed.

"Brother Meng, why bother with each other like this, let's join the disciples of the sect, you see that His Majesty's birthday is about to start in January, we should plan a plan and frustrate the sharpness of those scholars." Yan Wendao looked at him and said with a smile.

"Didn't you always disagree with me?" Meng Che sneered, "Why did you suddenly change your personality today?"

"We are all small sections, and those rotten Confucians are the big ones. Yan Wendao didn't care at all about his cold words, "You shouldn't have known that you have been out for half a month, but recently they took the initiative to come to the door." ”

Meng Che shrugged: "That's not what you want, beating them up is just to relieve your anger." ”

"Under the move, this should not be the words of our Meng Dajunshi. Yan Wendao looked directly at him and shook his head.

"Come on. Meng Che waved his hand impatiently, "Don't think about me coming up with any ideas for you this time, the spring season is coming, and my old son has already set an eye on me, and wants me to retreat as soon as I go back." ”

"Don't!" Yan Wendao said a little anxiously, "This time, you are really indispensable." ”

Meng Che smiled: "It's rare to see you like this, tell me what the situation is first, where are you going?"

"Hey, they made an appointment with us to fight the Six Arts, didn't we take advantage of the sunny winter today to go out and practice archery while going out to play?" A brocade-clothed boy behind Yan Wendao sighed, "I said Meng Che, we usually don't deal with each other, and we still have to be consistent with the outside world at critical moments." ”

"No, don't you always say that I'm useless?" Meng Che sneered.

"That's different, how can you say that they are also our people," Yan Wendao persuaded, "How about joining us, let's subdue them this time?"

"Gentleman Liuyi, can you do it?" Meng Che had a ghostly expression on his face.

"Look down on people, don't you!" The next few sons and brothers suddenly became unconvinced.

Yan Wendao waved his hand: "As long as you are willing to join us, I Yan Wendao will pack tickets, and we will win this competition!"

When Chen Mingye heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.

"That kid, what are you laughing at?" The next few sons and brothers originally thought that they would be a little embarrassed when they came to find Meng Che, how could they have experienced this kind of anger, and they would suddenly come to their senses when they saw a little-known boy.

Chen Mingye raised his head when he heard this, looked at the people opposite, and the corners of his mouth suddenly turned up.

Hehe, a few stinky boys who dragged their noses behind him at the beginning dare to yell at themselves now?
