Chapter 759
"Bang...bang..."
Although Meng Yun was a little drunk, he had practiced martial arts after all, and seemed to be prepared to be beaten when he entered the door, so he jumped lightly and avoided the hidden weapon. A thousand-month inkstone sent by Chen Xu hit the door and fell to the ground and broke into pieces. However, Meng Yun avoided the inkstone but did not avoid the ink. His handsome face and exquisite brocade robe were splashed all over. He stood by the door in a golden rooster stand alone, drop by drop of ink was still dripping down his cheeks and clothes.
Oh, I have grown up and dare to hide!
Meng Yi stood up and picked up a wooden stick.
"Dad, please spare my life~" Meng Yun became timid in an instant and was so scared that he lay at the door begging for mercy.
"Pa~" Meng Yi raised his hand and hit Meng Yun's butt heavily, and Meng Yun let out a shrill scream.
"As the left school magistrate of the Ministry of Works, I was idle all day long. As a father, I was still crazy and didn't return home. Last time I bewitched Qinghe Hou and fell injured while playing with Zhuyuan, saying, "Where did you go to play with me today? I can't say that I beat you to death..."
"Dad, please spare me. Today I was invited by Qinghehou to go to the Nanshan River to catch fish and have a picnic..." Meng Yun covered his butt and begged for mercy.
"Hmm~" Meng Yi put down the raised wooden stick and stared at his son with wide eyes: "You mean you are drinking and having fun with Qinghehou today?"
"That's right!" Meng Yun nodded repeatedly.
"Then have you seen a stranger dressed in disguise and Qinghe Hou be with him?" Meng Yi asked anxiously.
"Dad was talking about the emperor?"
"You met the emperor?"
"See... I saw it, and I was fishing in the mountain stream together..."
"Huh~" Meng Yi let out a long breath, threw the wooden stick in his hand and pulled his son's sleeve to sit on the chair, and poured a cup of hot tea for Meng Yun himself and said, "Come on, tell me about today's fishing and picnicking, and tell me in detail that you should not hide it at all!"
Meng Yun was at a loss because of his father's huge attitude. He took the teacup with trembling hands. A drop of ink dripped into the teacup along his chin and instantly opened. As the heat dissipated, a strange fragrance of ink tea rippled in the room.
Half an hour later, Meng Yun finally finished talking about fishing and picnicking today, then drank a cup of cold tea in one gulp, wiped his mouth with his ink-filled sleeves, and instantly turned into a big face.
"So your Majesty really didn't deliberately conceal his whereabouts!" Meng Yi was not in the mood to see that he had almost become a panda's son, but stood up with a serious expression, walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back several times, and finally stopped, "Your Majesty said he wanted to reward you with a title?"
"Yes, the emperor said that he would give him a prize if he caught a fish. The pool was small, cold and deep. We had no choice but to pray to the Marquis of Qinghe to help. So Marquis of Qinghe took out the Taiyi Divine Thunder and banged it, and thousands of big fish died completely..."
The so-called word-of-mouth is the most unreliable.
There were only a few hundred small fish, but when they reached Mengyun's mouth, they turned into thousands of large fish. If they continued to spread, it was estimated that tens of thousands were also possible.
Meng Yi didn't think much about it. Whether it was hundreds of small fish or thousands of big fish, they must have been killed. He had seen the power of Taiyi Divine Thunder with the emperor on a tour of the southeast the year before yesterday. Several houses were destroyed, and a large pit was blown out of the ground more than a foot deep. The entire Wancheng was shaking and trembling. Such a magical technique like heavenly thunder made it easy to kill the fish.
Meng Yun danced and said again about the Taiyi Divine Thunder fish-fried.
Meng Yi followed the order of things in his mind and said, "You started saying that it was the emperor's imperial guards and guards who arrived after you arrived at Qinghe Villa?"
"Yes, I'll wait about two minutes after I arrive. Just as I'm about to set off, Deputy Commander Bai and Xuanwu Guard arrived one after another!" Meng Yun nodded.
"This makes sense since then. The emperor must have found that the Queen of Qinghe invited you idle playboys to have a picnic, so she decided to disguise herself and hide out of the palace..." Meng Yi said after holding his beard and pondering for a long time.
"Dad, why did the emperor know that it was us who would go with him?" Meng Yun was confused.
"Because you are stupid!" Meng Yi glared at his son with anger.
Mengyun:...
"Hmph, you guys have nothing to do except eat, drink and have fun, and they don't deserve to carry shoes for Qinghou on weekdays!"
"Dad, how can you compare so much? My brother-in-law is a disciple of the immortal family. We are just ordinary people!" Meng Yun muttered unconvincedly.
Meng Yi's anger disappeared a lot in an instant. Chen Xu, the monster who suddenly appeared, could not be compared with a group of playboys, and even civil and military officials in the court could not compare with him. He could only look at him like a sun with four legs, jumping higher and higher day by day, and could not hold him down.
"Dad, do you think the emperor promised to give us the reward?" Meng Yun stammered at his father.
"The emperor's words are all the same as the emperor, and he will naturally give him a reward. You are idle all day long. What's the use of rewarding a reward?" Meng Yi snorted dissatisfied.
"Dad, you can only be a high-ranking official. Now you have a ninth-rank official position and have strict assessments. Moreover, we are not generals of the army. You can't even go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and earn military merits. If you can't be promoted, when will I climb to the second-rank and third-rank position?"
"Haha!" Meng Yi laughed instead of anger, looking at his son who was black and white on his face, "I didn't expect you to be ambitious, okay, very good, this time your uncle was transferred back to the capital, and your Majesty would definitely arrange a position for him soon. Don't be a left-level commander in the Ministry of Works. Follow your uncle to the army and go to the battlefield to earn military merits like Wang Li, and you will not lose the reputation and inheritance of my Montessori!"
"Dad, do you really want me to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy?" Meng Yun shrank his neck.
"Otherwise? Military merits are the fastest promoted. Jiang Hu, Jiang Bu and Su Jiao both rose to the northwest. Even Ying Bu, the general of the Hou family of Qinghe, became famous as the Zuo Shuchang in one battle. He was more than enough to serve as a county magistrate. Now Li Sifeng Quji's sons are all senior officials of the third and fourth ranks. You are still a mere Left School Order, and you have achieved nothing on horseback and riding horses all day long. My Mengshi's face has been thrown away by you!"
"But the northwest, the Huhu and Hu have all been pacified, and the army is being sacked. The south is wet and hot and there are too many mosquitoes. I...I don't want to go to Wuling to suffer!"
"You... are so angry that I am so angry!" Meng Yi's face and beard were trembling with anger. He pointed to the door and shouted angrily: "Get out, get away, don't let me see you!"
Meng Yun stood up like Meng Dahe and ran out of the room. Outside the door, a beautiful lady in a short skirt and a group of little ladies wearing short skirts exposed their big white legs. Seeing Meng Yun's ink marks and fancy face, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaim, and then rushed up to take off his clothes and wipe his face.
Looking at his mother and father's concubines, Meng Yun ran away with a blushing face.
He is not as interested in women as his father.
Moreover, every time these concubines saw him, they seemed to see a delicious candy. They wanted to pick him up and put it in their mouths, which made Meng Yun very embarrassed and dared not go home if he had nothing to do.
After returning to his room to wash and change into clean clothes, Meng Yun quickly went out and stood at the gate of the mansion for a long time without knowing where he should go. After thinking for a while, he took a few guards and rode his horse straight to the city of Xiqi.
Last time, Qinghehou drew a drawing of a glider for him, and he gave it to the lame bamboo craftsman. I don’t know that almost a month has passed, and the old lame man made the glider without it.
And also in a mansion somewhere west of the city, the two big characters Feng Mansion were hung on the gate. Feng Quji was sitting in the study in the mansion, quietly listening to the news from the butler's report.
The emperor secretly took more than a dozen imperial guards out of the city for fun. This kind of thing has never happened since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, and the emperor was not a willful emperor, so how could he suddenly do such an incredible thing?
Although the emperor disguised himself as a secret person, he had ears on his side of the wall. Not to mention that all the civil and military officials in the court were in the palace, at least three nobles still had their own ways to get the emperor's latest trends.
As the highest-end controller of power in Daqin, if you don’t even know the trend of your boss, your position will basically be not guaranteed. It is not that you have any unreasonable thoughts, but to ensure your status.
Moreover, the emperor did not hide his whereabouts at all times, otherwise once he really disappeared and everyone would not know, Daqin might have problems at any time.
Therefore, the monarch and minister maintain a state of harmonious secret communication between each other, and it is just a tacit understanding.
It is not that it cannot be completely concealed, but that there is no special situation and no need. Once such a trend that is unknown to each other occurs, there is a problem with the relationship between the monarch and the ministers. Either someone is planning to rebel or the emperor is ready to take action.
Feng Quji ruled the six ministries, equivalent to the prime minister of the country in later generations. He was under his management of every matter involving people's livelihood. He was busy all day long and did not touch the ground. The appointment and removal of officials from more than 900 counties across the country also had to be smoothed out. In addition, the construction of the Oriental Road is in full swing, so it is not an exaggeration to describe Feng Quji as a sluggish person.
He knew the emperor secretly left the palace to have fun the latest.
Therefore, after listening to the butler's report, he was at a loss while picking his beard. After pondering for a long time, he ordered: "Go and invite Dalang to the study!"
"Yes, lord!" The housekeeper bowed and, after half a moment, the eldest son Feng Jing came hurriedly.
"Dad, what are the instructions for calling the child to come?" Feng Jing saluted respectfully after entering the room.
"Sit!" Feng Qu pointed at the chair.
"Yes!" Feng Jing sat down and looked at Feng Quji uneasy.
"I am busy with official duties recently and have not paid much attention to some changes in the city. You are in the Ministry of Rites and are familiar with the officials of the Shaofu. Have you ever heard of any changes in the palace that are different from the usual ones?"
Feng Jing thought for a long time and shook his head: "The child has never heard of any changes in the palace, why did his father suddenly ask about this?"
"The emperor suddenly disguised himself from the palace today and went outside the city under the protection of more than ten imperial guards?"
