Rebirth of the best emperor

Chapter 19 Who's the Hillbilly?
"What, Your Majesty, do you want to visit in private?"

Li Lan looked at Wang Mang in shock, not knowing what Wang Mang was going crazy.

Wang Mang nodded, raised his eyebrows and said, "That's right, I want to visit incognito, why, do you have an opinion?"

Feeling the emperor's displeasure, Li Lan trembled in his heart, and said, "Your Majesty, a slave can't do this kind of thing?"

"When will you be able to decide on my affairs?" Wang Mang said coldly. Now that Wang Mang feels that he has the strength to protect himself, and he has some understanding of the terrain, customs and customs of the capital, his mentality has naturally become a little different.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for my mistake!" Li Lan was so frightened that she fell to her knees on the ground when she heard the meaning behind Wang Mang's words.

"It's good to know that I'm wrong." Wang Mang snorted coldly, and said, "Go, prepare for my departure from the palace."

"This..." Li Lan looked at the coldness in Wang Mang's eyes, finally nodded and said, "Your servant will arrange it now."

"That's it." Wang Mang said with a smile: "I'm just going out, don't make such a fuss, there will be more days when I go out in the future."

"Ah!" Li Lan was startled, and looked at Wang Mang with panic.

"Why are you still standing here in a daze, why don't you hurry up and prepare." Wang Mang looked at Li Lan with some displeasure, why is this guy always so dawdling.

"Abiding by the order." Li Lan nodded quickly, and trotted out the door.

The emperor said it was easy, but Li Lan couldn't really arrange it as an easy job. The preparations for all kinds of clothing, silver, and guards were all available. Fortunately, he still remembered Wang Mang's orders and did not dare to talk to the ministers outside. The main reason for notifying me is that I am afraid that those ministers will make trouble for me.

After everything was arranged, Li Lan pulled a confidant eunuch with a little worry, and said, "Go and report to the old ancestor, just say that His Majesty wants to visit privately, and you don't need to worry about the rest, just bring the news with you. "

The little eunuch was also shocked, so he trotted all the way to a remote small courtyard in the palace.

Walking with Li Lan in the capital, Wang Mang suddenly felt that the whole person seemed to relax a lot. There were pedestrians and hawkers everywhere outside, unlike the palace compound where there was no sound at all. It was quiet and depressing. No wonder In history, there are emperors who are so bored that they open a vegetable market in the palace.

"Li Lan, how do you feel? It's here that I...my son can feel the prosperity of our capital."

Standing on the busiest street in the capital, Wang Mang realized that he, the emperor, was really not playing stand-alone games or scheming.

Li Lan seldom went out of the palace, and was amazed at the prosperity of the capital, saying: "Your...my lord, it's all because of your good governance."

"Don't flatter, be careful to let people hear the joke." Wang Mang laughed.

"Haha, a bunch of bumpkins!"

As soon as Wang Mang finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter from the side. A group of people dressed as noblemen rode on big horses and looked at Wang Mang and others unscrupulously. One of the leaders pointed at Wang Mang and laughed: "Listen, everyone!" , What is this country bumpkin talking about, and he manages it well, it should be a drama, haha, it's so ridiculous!"

"Young Master Fang is right." A group of young masters agreed, "If you say that the government is good, it must be Master Fang's good governance. It has nothing to do with this country bumpkin."

"You guys are so bold, who are you calling a country bumpkin? How dare you slander the emperor in the street...Speaking of Mr. Huang like that." Li Lan blushed, and immediately stepped forward to argue, and almost said the wrong thing under the agitation.

It was fine if Li Lan didn't speak, but when she did, her shrill voice immediately elicited bursts of laughter.

"Look at this little boy, he's a sissy, just like those eggless eunuchs in the palace." Mr. Fang laughed loudly.

Li Lan's face was completely red to the ears, and his eyes were red. These people were too deceitful. As soon as they waved, they wanted to call someone to chop the gang of nobles into pieces, but Wang Mang did grab him.

Wang Mang was also very angry. The original good mood of private visits on micro-services made the group of nobles lose their interest. Just when they were about to get angry, they saw that the expressions of Mr. Fang and others changed a little.

Following the eyes of Mr. Fang and others, a burly man came over, kicked a nobleman over, and sneered at Mr. Fang: "Fang Qiu, you are here to do whatever you want in your old name again!" Insulting others, have you forgotten what I told you before?"

Fang Qiu's face turned pale, and he exclaimed, "Meng Yi, aren't you guarding the border town?"

"Can't I come back and have a look?" Meng Yi said sullenly, rolled up his sleeves and said, "I haven't taught you a lesson for some days, I think your skin is itchy!"

"Brothers, bullshit!"

When Fang Qiu saw Meng Yi rolled up his sleeves, he immediately slapped his horse, regardless of the fact that this was a downtown area, he scattered like birds and beasts in panic, causing chaos among the riots.

Meng Yi looked at Fang Qiu and others with a livid face, and cursed: "Damn, bully me for not riding a horse!"

Wang Mang looked at all this curiously, and felt that the square ball was very annoying, but if it wasn't for the annoying square ball, Wang Mang would not have seen this interesting Meng Yi.

"Thank you, strong man!" Wang Mang said with a smile, "Thank you for today's matter!"

"You don't have to thank me, I don't like them." Meng Yi said: "Also, this is the capital city, and the capital city is no better than a place. There are too many people with abilities and backgrounds. Don't talk nonsense about some things, and don't offend some people indiscriminately. .”

"Who said we are outsiders?" Li Lan said with a sharp voice.

"Fang Qiu said it." Meng Yi said as a matter of course: "What? You are from the capital, it's not right. If you are from the capital, how could you provoke Fang Qiu and others? It's strange."

Hearing what Meng Yi said, Wang Mang immediately understood that Fang Qiu seemed to be a famous person, otherwise Meng Yi would not say that he did not recognize him.

"I'm originally from the capital, but I've been outside for many years, and I just came back today." Wang Mang said with a smile, "So I don't even recognize that square ball. I don't know who that square ball is. Why is it so domineering in this capital?"

"So that's how it is." Meng Yi nodded, and immediately understood why Wang Mang didn't know Fang Qiu, and said, "That Fang Qiu is the son of Fang Xizhi, the left servant of the household department, and the son of the God of Wealth. Naturally, there are people everywhere. , stay away from him when you see him in the future, and try not to conflict with him, this guy is very sinister."

"Scholar Xie Meng made a point." Wang Mang said with a smile, "Today I'm very friendly with the strong man. I don't know if the strong man has time. Let's go to the nearby teahouse and sit down."

"Forget it." Meng Yi waved his hand and said, "I still have something to do, so let's go first!"

With that said, Meng Yi strode away.

Looking at the background of Meng Yi's departure, Wang Mang laughed and said, "Although he speaks a bit rudely, he is a warm-hearted person, Li Lan, do you know him?"

"It should be from the Meng family in the northwest. The name sounds familiar, but I can't remember it at the moment." Li Lan said with a frown.

"People from the Meng family." Wang Mang nodded, and said: "This kid is not bad, I... I like it, since we are in this capital, there will always be a chance to meet."

"This kid is also a fool." Li Lan said with a smile: "If I know the identity of the person who invited him to drink tea in the future, I don't know what expression I will have."

"My lord is also looking forward to it." Wang Mang said with a slight smile, "Let's go, he won't drink, let's drink. I heard that the tea in this teahouse is famous all over the world."
