Chapter 414 Visiting Meng Changhuai
The concierge of the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion didn't know Zuo Qiuyue, but he knew Shisi, and he knew that Shisi had just got married a few days ago and married the Henan County King as his concubine.

Then this Mr. Mei Lang who came hand in hand with her...isn't he the Prince of Henan County!
The concierge was so shocked that his steps were messy, and he didn't know if he stumbled halfway when he ran to report.

Soon Meng Changhuai came to the gate to greet him with his wife Li Shi and his niece Li Yuan who lived in the mansion.

"I don't know that the prince and concubine of the county came to visit suddenly, and I am far away from welcoming them. Please forgive me."

Meng Changhuai's humility was expected by Fourteen.This is an old fritter in the officialdom, and he won't leave a little bit of mistakes to pass on to others.

In terms of real positions, Zuo Qiuyue is only at the fourth rank now, while Meng Changhuai is a senior official at the second rank, and he is also an official of the frontier.Which of the current Jiedushi is not a local snake?Whether the status of the county king is valuable or not depends not on the county king himself, nor on the court, but on the local officials.

Regardless of what he thinks in his heart, this attitude has already given Zuoqiu Yue enough face.

"Your Majesty Meng, don't be cautious. It's because we and my wife wanted to come here temporarily, so we didn't inform you in advance." Zuo Qiuyue was also very humble and polite, neither humble nor overbearing.

"Miss Xiao, no, she should be called Wangfei now." Mrs. Meng came over to hold Shishi's hand, and replied to the warm messages from a few years ago, "Ah Yan, why haven't you seen him?"

After Meng Yuhe's incident, although the two families still moved around frequently in the past few years, they were different from the beginning after all.

Meng Changhuai is fine, most of his contacts with Shishi are for business.In addition, men and women have different ways of thinking, so the matter of Meng Yuhe didn't have much influence on him.

But for Mrs. Meng, every time she sees Fourteen, the first thing she thinks of is that this is the woman his son admires.She knew it wasn't Fourteen's fault, but it was embarrassing.

Furthermore, Fourteen is single and has a child, which is also embarrassing.

So in the past few years, she sent a lot more boxing gifts to Xiao's house than before, and the number of private meetings with Shisi was only a handful.

Until I received the invitation from Fourteen, I sent her a separate copy, asking her to attend her wedding.Mrs. Meng was both happy and ashamed. After all, she was too small.

"He's tinkering with his stuff at home." Fourteen replied, "Madam also knows that he always likes some weird things."

"My concubine." Li Yuan came to pay his respects.She shook hands and knelt down, and the etiquette was very standard.

"Is Mrs. Li coming to visit Mrs. Meng?"

Li Yuan had been married two years earlier, to an official in Henan Province, who also had a background in God.Seeing her here, Shisi was a little surprised.

"My lord, my concubine, it's cold outside, so follow me into the mansion to talk."

Meng Changhuai led a group of people to walk in, and it was only then that Li Yuan saw that Kang Simu was actually in the group.She immediately wanted to dodge, and then subconsciously searched for another figure.But after looking at Qi Xian and others in turn, they couldn't find the person they were looking for.

She wanted to ask, but Kong Simu walked away as if he didn't recognize her.

……

Dilong warmed the hall, Shisi and Zuoqiu Yue took off their cloaks.

Zuo Qiuyue went to pick up the cloak that Fourteen had retreated very naturally, and passed it to the little maid behind her after receiving it.

The little servant girl kept her head down, and only raised it a little when she was picking up the cloak. When she saw the face of the Henan County King, she immediately blushed.

Fourteen noticed, and secretly said: Beauty is a disaster.

And the very familiar actions of the two of them were noticed by Meng Changhuai and his wife.

It really is a pair of Bi people, a match made in heaven, Mrs. Meng thought to herself: It is very sudden that the king of Henan County married Mrs. Xiao, but the facts are probably different from what people think.Such a familiar relationship cannot be developed in a day or two.

Meng Changhuai remembered that night five years ago, and the fourteen years when he showed his sharpness. These seemingly unrelated things rushed into his mind together.

The couple came to visit suddenly, and Meng Changhuai really couldn't figure out what they were thinking.

And Shisi and Zuo Qiuyue were not in a hurry, as if they really came to visit old friends, after they sat down, they just chatted about family affairs.

Not long after, it was lunch time, Zuo Qiuyue introduced Kang Simu, Tong Yang and Qi Xian to Meng Changhuai.

It's just an introduction, but it doesn't say what the purpose of the introduction is.This made Meng Changhuai even more confused.

……

evening.

Madam Meng got up from the dressing table after removing her make-up, and saw Meng Changhuai sitting on the soft bed holding a book, but her mind had already flown into the distance.

"What are you thinking, so ecstatic?"

"...In the recent letter from father-in-law, did you mention the county king?" Meng Changhuai recovered, closed the book, and put it on the small table.

"Didn't we all read father's letters together? Can you not know what they wrote?" Meng Fu sat down opposite him. "You have been restless since dinner. What are you worried about?"

Meng Changhuai pondered for a long time: "I have a vague feeling that the person who came was not kind."

"Who? The county king and princess?"

Meng Changhuai did not nod, nor did he deny it.

"What happened to them?"

"Five years ago, I received a secret report that the missing prince of the county was in the Xiao residence in Huangliang County. At that time, he had just finished confinement and came out of the imperial city, and he had not yet taken off his identity as the son of a criminal." Meng Changhuai His fingers jumped up and down on the small red sandalwood table.

"Later, I brought someone to find him and escorted him back to Shendu. Then, in less than two years, he became the king of Yujun in the court from the son of a guilty minister."

"Later, not only did he have a title, but he also had a real job. In three years, he successively served in the third of the nine temples and five prisons. Now it is the fifth year, and he has become the Henan County King with a fief and a food town."

"In the past five years, he has not shown his mountains or dewed his water. The limelight has been dominated by others, but he has quietly taken advantage of it. It is said that His Majesty favors the king of Huainan County, but whether it is compared to wealth or military equipment, how can Huainan Dao On par with my Henan Province? Even if it is closer to the gods, the Hedong Province, which has many minerals, is inferior to Henan Province."

Meng Changhuai's tone was gentle and his face was calm, like a chess watcher evaluating the chess game he saw.But as he talked more, Mrs. Meng's face gradually became serious.

"Is such a person mediocre?"

Although their husband and wife have not been in Shendu for many years, their connection with Shendu has never been interrupted.Regarding the changes in the imperial court, Li Jingjie, who is the Minister of Rites, naturally took care of this son-in-law in every way.

According to the news from Shendu, among the sons and grandsons of phoenixes and dragons whose two surnames combined, the ones who stand out the most are Zuoqiu Hong and eldest grandson Jingxu.

Zuoqiu Hong's father was the second son of the current and late emperors, and he was the king of Qi. Because of congenital defects, he had no right to inherit the throne.Therefore, among the three sons of the Holy Father, he is the least suspected, and he is the only one among the three sons who is still alive.

But Zuoqiu Hong was the first son of King Qi, before he reached the age of crown, he was also named King of Hedong County, and his land was in Hedong Road.

Not long ago, he was promoted to King of Hedong.

The combination of father and son is one family and two kings.

The eldest grandson Jingxu's father is the younger brother of the current Holy Majesty, the eldest grandson Qi of Prince Huan.He was the son of Prince Huan first, and by virtue of his outstanding talent, he was named Prince of Huainan County just like Zuo Qiuhong.Together, the father and son can be counted as two kings of one family.

The dignitaries in Shendu are also divided into two camps for betting.Half bet on Zuoqiu Hong and half on Changsun Jingxu.

But in a corner that no one noticed, there was another Zuoqiu Yue who quietly rose up.He was occasionally mentioned in letters from Shendu, but with those two in front, Zuoqiu Yue didn't attract much attention.

As everyone knows, is he covered by someone, or is he deliberately hiding his edge?

Now he married Xiao Shishiniang again.

Marrying Xiao Shishiniang is equivalent to receiving half of the money of Henan Province.
