The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 544

Another day, September 25th is the day of the club.

The girls all got up early, and the old lady called them to the front yard to have breakfast, and told them one by one that they must not lose their manners in front of the princess, and then arranged a carriage to take them to the agreed place.

Nesting in the Grand View Garden all day, even the best scenery is already tired of seeing, and now it is rare to go out, the sisters are all excited.

Originally, the mansion allocated three carriages, and Pian Shi Xiangyun and Tanchun took the lead to join in the fun. Finally, everyone squeezed into the leading carriage, raised the curtains along the way, pointed their heads, talked and laughed, it was really very pleasant .

When passing by a mansion, Lin Daiyu suddenly gave a 'huh', and pointed to everyone: "Is that the Mei family? Why is there still a banner in front of the door?"

Shi Xiangyun followed her point of view, hesitantly said: "It seems to be the Mei family, is their family having a funeral?"

Mei Hanlin originally planned to help the spirit go back to his hometown for burial, but he suddenly accepted the imperial edict to demote him from office. The matter of helping the spirit was temporarily ignored, and the soul-inducing banner in front of the door was naturally not removed.

As for the two girls being able to recognize the Mei Mansion, it all depends on Jiao Shun's thorough investigation at the beginning, describing the surroundings of the Mei Mansion clearly - coupled with the plaque hanging high in front of the door, it is not surprising that they can be recognized up.

Looking away from the soul-inducing banner, Lin Daiyu and Shi Xiangyun looked at each other unconsciously, feeling a little unclear in their hearts.

Although they were indignant at what the Mei family had done and joined the plan against the Mei family without hesitation, they never thought that the Mei family would be ruined because of this.

This……

Is it too late?
"Been there?"

Hearing Shi Xiangyun stammering out what was on his mind, Tanchun sneered disdainfully: "If my predictions are correct, the one who died should be Mei Guangyan's old mother, and the old lady would have been terminally ill a long time ago, so she might not be able to do much more if she didn't have this incident." Live a few days."

Speaking of this, seeing that the two of them still couldn't let go, they said again: "And think about it the other way around, if Brother Jiao hadn't intervened, Sister Qin's mother would have traveled all the way to the capital with her long-sick body, but she told Tian Tian not to come here." Those who responded to the ground were not working well, and in a moment of depression..."

The following words were suspected of cursing the elder, so she didn't say it out loud.

But Lin Daiyu and Shi Xiangyun had also understood the unfinished meaning of the words, and their originally somewhat tangled expressions suddenly eased a lot.

Lin Daiyu couldn't help nodding her head and said: "Hearing what the third sister said, brother Jiao is really kind to the Xue family."

She only spoke half of what she said, thinking to herself that the second wife of the Xue family would not be able to realize this truth, if she could realize it, it must be of great benefit to Bao Qin's marriage into the Jiao family.

"Amitabha."

At this time, Xichun clasped his palms together, and said with compassion: "Third sister's words are reasonable, but the dead are the most important. Sisters should not take pleasure in misfortune, and should have a compassionate and tolerant heart."

Everyone didn't notice their sideways glances. Seeing her merciful posture, they didn't feel that there was anything wrong with saying these words from their own mouths, and they were all speechless without realizing it.

After a long while, Lin Daiyu whispered to Xiangyun and Tanchun: "Fourth sister is just stupid in chanting scriptures, she is not pretending to her relatives around her, but she is full of compassion for an outsider who can't be beaten. This is really..."

As he spoke, he couldn't help shaking his head again and again.

Shi Xiangyun and Tanchun were also speechless, they couldn't understand the way of being harsh and cruel to relatives at home, but compassionate and tolerant to strangers.

No more words all the way.

Seeing that it was not far from the newly-built Bie Yuan of the Nan'an Palace, two carriages merged into the team by the side of the road, but they were exactly the carriages of Xue Baochai and Xue Baoqin.

It was inconvenient to say hello on the road, and after getting off the carriage at the corner gate of the Bieyuan, the two groups of people who had been away for many days couldn't wait to 'bump' into one place.

Shi Xiangyun and Lin Daiyu were the most excited, each pulling Baochai and Baoqin to express their farewell love.

After Baochai comforted Xiangyun with a few words, she approached Yingchun immediately, asked her about her recent situation, comforted her in a roundabout way, and expressed her support for her "rebellious father".

After all the humbling and asking about the warmth, before the princess of Nan'an came out to greet her, Tanchun saw the needles, telling what he had seen and heard when he passed by Mei's house just now, and solemnly reminded: "It's nothing else, Sister Bao must be careful of Mei. Family, use old lady Mei's death to cause trouble."

Baochai smiled and said, "Sister Duocheng kindly reminded me, but this matter has already been resolved secretly by Brother Jiao, so the Mei family will never dare to repeat it."

As soon as Tan Chun heard this, he knew there was something else going on, and he had to investigate further, but Princess Nan'an had already come out to greet her, and all the girls came forward to pay respects, so he didn't care about talking about anything else.

…………

At the same time, Meifu.

Although he has received the decree to demote the official, Mei Guangyan is still wearing a seventh-rank official uniform because his position has not been determined. He opened his arms and let his wife tidy up the details, while saying in a deep voice: "Bao Sen, you went to the south Remember to visit old friends for my father, if there is anything, please ask your clan uncle to help..."

He babbled a lot, but Mabelson went in his left ear and out his right ear.

This rebellious son originally thought that after his father's love was taken away, the family would be able to stay in the capital, but Mei Guangyan sent him to help the spirit all the way to the south, instead of him to guard the filial piety in his hometown even though Mei Guangyan had no skills.

This made Mabelson unwilling in every possible way, but he couldn't find a reason to shirk.

He groaned sullenly for a long time, but suddenly an excellent idea popped up in his mind, so he hurriedly said: "Father, after all, the son is young and ignorant. If there are no flaws, wouldn't it make grandma feel uncomfortable under the nine springs? Why not?" Let the mother go south with the son? With the mother in charge of the overall situation in the hometown, the father can work for the emperor with peace of mind in the capital."

As she said that, she sneaked a peek at her mother again. Because of her filial piety, the little birdy Mrs. Mei was covered in plain clothes. Although there was a look of sadness on her face, it didn't damage the color, but it made her look more and more vague. pity.

Mei Baosen couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and said in his heart that as the saying goes, when you get married, you should obey your husband, and if your husband dies, you should obey your son——Although my old man is still alive and well, what's the difference between being thousands of miles away and being dead?
Then mother will naturally...

"Um……"

How did Mei Guangyan know that her son had the idea that he could replace him?
Hearing that what he said made some sense, he couldn't help but stroke his beard and ponder.

"No!"

Mrs. Mei's delicate body trembled slightly, and she immediately vetoed it.

If her son hadn't shown his wolfish ambitions, she would probably have taken the initiative to ask her to follow her son back to her hometown in Jiangsu and Zhejiang to avoid disaster.

But after seeing Mabelson's true face, how could she not know what kind of intentions this creature, which is inferior to a beast, is planning?
Therefore, she would rather stay in the capital to deal with that hungry wolf than go south with this unfilial son!
In that way, although she lost her chastity, at least she still retained her human relations.

"Ok?"

After hearing this, Mei Guangyan immediately looked at his wife with an unhappy expression on his face. Although he hadn't made up his mind to let his wife go south with him, he couldn't help his wife voluntarily rejecting the matter.

"master."

Mrs. Mei was a little flustered under his gaze, but she managed to raise her head and looked at him and said, "You don't think about tea and food these days, and you are losing weight day by day. I can't take care of you in the capital. How can you leave in peace?"

Seeing that his wife was reluctant to part with him, but not unwilling to help Ling go south, Mei Hanlin turned pale, shook his head and said, "I'm not Baosen, so I can't take care of myself? Burying my mother is a big deal, if he's only one and a half years old child……"

"Aren't there a few clan brothers at home?"

Mrs. Mei interrupted him, and argued with reason: "The master will not be there at that time, and it will be quite inconvenient for me to come forward."

"Isn't there still aunts..."

Mei Baosen couldn't help interjecting, but was interrupted by Mrs. Mei again in the middle of the sentence: "Okay, master, it's getting late, aren't you going to the Ministry of Industry to meet Jiao Jijiu?"

Engineering is still in the blueprints. As the first and only person who was clearly transferred to [Demoted Official] Engineering, Mei Hanlin didn't need to visit Shangguan so early in the first place.

But after the analysis of him and his son, a pair of crouching dragon and phoenix chicks, it has been determined that the emperor sent him, who had a grudge against Jiao Shun, to study in engineering, and he must hope that he can check and balance Jiao Shun from the sidelines.

That being the case, it is natural to go to the post as soon as possible and fully participate in the preparation of engineering, so as to live up to the emperor's great trust.

Hearing his wife's reminder, Mei Guangyan turned to look at the wall clock on the wall, sighed, and adjusted the crown in an extravagant manner: "Come on, let me go, for the sake of the community, Mei will endure humiliation and pretend to be a snake. "

As he said that, he strode out of the house in strides, with an air of windy and windy Yi Shuihan.

But as soon as he went out, Mrs. Mei turned cold on the back, gritted her teeth and glared at her son, then turned around and went back to the room and closed the door heavily.

Seeing this, Maboson's face immediately collapsed.

Xin Dao's mother was so on guard, she was afraid that she would not give herself a chance to strike in a short time.

Forget it, I might as well go back to my hometown and lie dormant for two or three years. By then, my mother will probably have forgotten the past, and my father will also be more and more old. Without a loving and nourishing woman, it must be easier to attack.

Fantasizing about the scene where the king would return the next day, Mabaosen had a smug smile on his face again, but he never thought that not only was his idea completely unrealistic, but he had already been cut off halfway.

…………

Mei Guangyan didn't know the filial piety of the family's mother and son, so she drove to the Ministry of Industry, walked around the gate of the yamen more than a dozen times, and finally summoned up the courage to submit a letter to ask for an interview.

This Mei Hanlin's name can be regarded as well-known in the capital.

Seeing that he had sent a letter to ask to see Mr. Jiao, the guard at the gate immediately raised his vigilance, and asked with a straight face, "My lord, I don't know why you are asking to see Jiao Jijiu?"

"So that Your Excellency will know."

Mei Guangyan cupped her hands slightly, and said bluntly: "I have been appointed by the imperial court and transferred to Gong Xue as an official. Today I came here to pay a visit to Shangguan."

"Um?!"

The little official was stunned when he heard the words, he didn't expect this to happen, but since the transfer was ordered by the emperor, he naturally didn't dare to stop it, he hastily took Mei Hanlin's order to go in and report.

Mei Guangyan straightened her body and waited quietly in front of the engineering department. All she could think about was seeing Jiao Shun, how to bear it, let Jiao Shun relax his vigilance, and then... and finally...

He was rehearsing the scene of rehearsing for himself in his mind, when suddenly he rode over, and without dismounting when he got close, he said in a high voice: "Your Majesty, Xuan Gongxue sacrificial wine, Jiao Shun Wenhua Palace will see you!"

Mei Guangyan turned around in astonishment, and saw that the person who came was the eunuch from the palace.

The doormen who were pointing at Mei Guangyan, who bet on whether this person is a fool or not, hurriedly sent someone to lead the eunuch off the horse to drink tea, and at the same time sent someone to report to Jiao Shun.

At this time, Jiao Shun had just received Mei Guangyan's post.

It wasn't that the gatekeepers were slack, but that he was just discussing with Master Shangshu about the enrollment regulations of the engineering school, and the gatekeeper naturally didn't dare to disturb him, and only waited for Jiao Shun to come out of the Shangshu's duty room before offering the famous badge with both hands.

After receiving this famous card, Mrs. Mei in the mourning hall immediately flashed in Jiao Shun's mind, and he couldn't help shaking his head and smiling wryly. He hadn't grasped it for a while, and was afraid that Jia Yucun would hold the handle, so he simply transferred the handle to the emperor in advance. superior.

But he never expected that the emperor would have such a bad taste!
In other words, I don't know what Mei Guangyan was thinking. Normally, he should be resentful for being relegated to his hands. Why did he rush here without waiting for him to summon him?

Thinking of this, Jiao Shun suddenly felt vigilant, thinking that this fellow has noticed something, so he came here to fight himself to the death, right?

If this is the case, then you have to take precautions in advance.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the doorman rushing towards him, claiming that the emperor had summoned him.

Naturally, Jiao Shun didn't care about Mei Hanlin anymore, so he hurried out of the car and headed straight for Donghua Gate.

He originally thought that the reason why the emperor summoned him must be because of the establishment of the engineering institute and the external relations department in the engineering school as mentioned in the memorial yesterday, but who knew that when he met Emperor Longyuan in the Wenhua Hall, he heard the emperor laughing: "I love you!" Qing, come and enjoy this wonderful article."

After speaking, he ordered the eunuch to send a memorial, and then waved away the attendants in the palace.

Jiao Shun inexplicably took it in his hand and took a look, but it turned out to be Mei Guangyan's thank you notes.

This guy first analyzed himself, basically he had a good intention at first, but he was accidentally deceived and used by others, and then changed the subject and began to show his loyalty, implying that after going to engineering, he must uphold the holy will and never allow anything else Something that damages His Majesty's majesty has happened.

Seeing this, Jiao Shun couldn't help rolling his eyes.

No wonder this guy came to the door without waiting to be summoned, feeling that he regarded himself as the emperor's secret agent in engineering.

But looking at the emperor's current attitude, he knew that he didn't mean it at all.

At this moment, the emperor asked with a smile, "Aiqing, what do you think?"

What else could Jiao Shun say, he could only say in an official tone: "If Mei Guangyan can know how to turn back from the wrong way, and act impartially in the engineering school, I will be a minister..."

"No fun, no fun!"

Don't want to say halfway, the emperor patted the table to interrupt his words, then raised his finger to him and said: "Now there are only you and me, monarch and minister, don't fool me with these high-sounding words."

As he spoke, the emperor supported the table and leaned forward slightly, staring at Jiao Shun condescendingly, and jokingly asked, "I only ask you, how is Mrs. Mei?"

Jiao Shun was silent for a while, then replied concisely: "Very moist."
