The governor of Longyou suddenly realized that he had made the trip in vain. If he had known that Governor Cui had gone elsewhere to bid farewell to the distinguished guests, he would have gone there to have a drink and join in the fun.
Bustles are common, but bustles related to Governor Cui are rare.
The governor of Longyou took a look at the sky. It was obviously too late to catch up on the excitement, so he had to take his people to rest here and wait for Cui Jing to come back.
Fifty miles away, in a military camp with torches lit, a banquet for Meng Lie's farewell had been prepared.
Several generals who had just finished their work were rushing to the tent where the banquet was held. Someone on the way swallowed their saliva: "...Thanks to the distinguished guests tonight, we can also get drunk!"
Gong Dou said: "What are you thinking about? There is no wine at all!"
"I clearly saw Mr. Jiao carrying several jars of wine over today!"
"I have prepared it, but the distinguished guest said that he does not drink alcohol!" Gong Dou also felt a little regretful: "Commander Jiao asked someone to take him back and hide him again."
"How can Commander Jiao be so stingy..."
A few people felt sorry for a moment, and someone thought about it and said, "...it's a good thing not to drink. This distinguished guest probably doesn't want to break our military regulations."
The farewell banquet, which was obviously very elaborate, did not disperse until late at night.
Cui Jing also shook his head.
Chang Sui'an sighed with some worry in his heart - he also knew when the absurd rumors caused by the show would start.
The family figured out that there was a shortage of wine during the banquet, so there was no doubt that there would be music again... So they quickly arranged for someone to play the drums and another to dance to add to the fun.
Your Majesty needs anyone to swear an oath of loyalty to you.
But he could only bite the bullet and go ahead with the show, and said with a dry smile: "...I have been drinking tea for a long time, and if I drink it suddenly, the tea is also intoxicating, haha!"
To put it further, even if Gong Dou had other thoughts a few days ago, it would be my own loss, not the palace’s.
When Lieutenant General Yu saw this, he said to the general: "...You see he drank too much! What nonsense are you talking about!"
Gong Dou's name was well known to Cui Jing when he was in the capital, and because the other party was in charge of the Xuance Army, he naturally paid less attention to it, but these understandings only remained on the surface.
After Cui Jing asked, the young man was even stunned for a while after meeting.
At this time, the seven people were chatting and laughing, and Bi Mei felt even more satisfied and appreciative.
Therefore, for this banquet tonight, 170,000 people must be prepared to bid farewell to this distinguished guest.
After I described it like this, everyone's understanding of the matter became even muddier, as if they had seen their own little governor being scrutinized and evaluated by the other party, from his body to his every move.
Cui Jing is walking around now, and she is accustomed to using the surname Meng, but for people who already know my identity, there is no need to hide it.
Cui Jing's observation was not completely concealed, but Gong Dou's marching boy did not have a keen awareness that was different from ordinary people. Even if it was quiet in the tent at this moment, I could still detect Bi Mei's gaze.
She must be this calm, shrewd, insightful, dignified and decent woman...whose identity is equivalent to that of a housekeeper who is half a master!
Cui Jing also knew that Gong Dou was an insider about the Tiannan Pagoda incident. And when I was in Jiangdu, I was told by a private superior that Gong Dou had gone into hiding in order to hide his identity in front of the saint.
Array matters.
And that attention is not only because I brought one million yuan this time, but also because of the identity of my master, and——
Gong Dou also smiled: "You see him in the same way."
After Chang Sui'an was worried, he offered Bi Mei a cup of tea alone.
Hearing the straightforward agreement, Bi Mei turned around slightly and heard the young man explain: "Ten days later, you will have someone send a letter to Jiangdu."
This year is a harvest year worthy of celebration, and the sacrifice to express gratitude for the good harvest greatly inspired the hearts of people in Jiangdu and even Huainan Province.
Excellent skin, excellent bones, excellent aura - Cui Jing nodded with satisfaction in her heart.
Another old saying: "To be treated differently by my Lord, Little Governor Cui is also very unlucky."
Chang Sui'an listened half-understood, but seeing that Cui Jing deliberately said less, he gave up the idea of going into details.
"Please convey a message to you." Against the silvery moon and yellow sand, the young man's eyes seemed to contain the power to stabilize people: "Bi Mei is here, please feel at ease."
In this life, I also think that my vision and luck are the worst.
So until now, when Chang Sui'an looked at Bi Mei, there was still no solution in her heart, and she always felt that something was right.
Bi Mei naturally admitted it.
Hey, it has always been so difficult to retreat from a bad person's house, even for a small governor.
In April on Huainan Road, the smell of harvest floats in the air.
"Young Governor Cui has nothing to say, or is it necessary for Meng to take the letter back to Jiangdu and hand it over to the villain?"
At this point, someone else answered in a mysterious and low voice: "I see this gentleman named Meng... he has been looking at our little governor a lot these days. He seems to be looking at his son-in-law openly and covertly.
"
But the best plan did not influence Bi Mei. On the occasion of her farewell, she sincerely said to Gong Dou: "The wind and sand are about to rise. Little Governor Cui, please take care of yourself."
Bi Mei's care was at least reflected in the matter of pouring tea.
Seeing Zi Gu saying goodbye to his superiors, Gong Dou felt that it was also saying goodbye in another sense, because I still said that time that I wanted Meng Lie to follow me back to Jiangdu...
Ten days later, when Gong Dou sent a message to Jiangdu, he had not yet heard the news. At this moment, he really had nothing to ask Cui Jing to convey to him——
But I only asked to confirm Gong Dou's intentions, but I also told him "you must treat your highness badly", or forced the other party to make an oath, etc. These were useful but also unnecessary.
During those days, when Cui Jing was secretly observing him, Gong Dou would often sit up suddenly when he was taking a break in the evening, thinking quietly whether his words and deeds during the day were correct - in fact, he had always been so cautious in his life.
Being extremely cautious and making too many mistakes has become a bone of self-reflection.
The wind stirred up dust and sand, carrying the lingering sounds of the young man's words, and drifted southward in the darkness of night.
The smallest difference between Bi Mei and Chang Kuo and others is that in my heart I only value my master - in comparison, the order of the world, good and evil, right and wrong, or the worldly standards for judging a person's merits, are of less importance to me.
It's all a bunch of empty stuff.
The general was busy pretending to be drunk and completely conscious, but then he thought about it... what he drank today was basically wine!
Those people are really knowledgeable and fearful... During the hibiscus flower banquet, Little Governor Cui was really good at acting.
Everyone on the seventh floor laughed and tried to smooth things over, and then they quickly said that.
——Use Lao Chang's name to coax Lao Chang's son. If there is no trouble, Lao Chang will explain it beforehand. It is very reasonable and saves effort.
In comparison, Chang Kuo has less leisure time, but I am just a human being, but my heart is not at all leisurely - I have been worried about something, or rather a person, recently.
As for Bi Mei, this time, she wanted to take a hard look at the person who made my family "willingly owe me something" and there was nothing special about her.
Bi Mei nodded, looked at the young man behind her who was outstanding in every aspect, and asked seriously: "Does Little Governor Cui have no intention of my Lord?"
Yuan Xiang was very talented. When he arrived at the tent, he took the opportunity to squeeze in and sit down next to Cui Jing, specializing in taking care of the guests' needs during the banquet.
Cui Jing raised his eyes slightly and looked at the young man at the head of the chair.
Accompanied by the cheerful and melodious sound of drums and the heroic dancing postures of the generals, the lights in the tent flickered, but the young man's eyebrows were still enough to be seen, and the turbidity that was no different from ordinary people came from the rough outline of the bones. It also stems from this unique and refreshing nobility.
At that time, Meng Li, who was sitting at the top, took up his cup and said goodbye to his young governor and his colleagues.
Cui Jing has been staying here for more than a month, and the look in her eyes is already old to Bi Mei, but it still makes me feel relaxed and embarrassed. Although it has been revealed on the surface, I am already restless in my heart.
"It is indeed appropriate to say that I am my father-in-law..." Wujun recalled the state of Mr. Meng, racked his brains, and finally came up with a more appropriate description: "At first glance, it looks more like... from a small family. The housekeeper and my mother-in-law are here to see my uncle!"
"As expected of the people around me, should I say that I have to use them in a more important way?"
The general burst into laughter after saying this, and quietly paid attention to Cui Jing's reaction.
When it comes to other people, we would never feel such pressure. After all, our little governor is very picky, but when we think about this person, he is also very picky, and he is a regular envoy who has been older than the little governor. It's still easier to avoid.
Hearing Gong Dou's words, Cui Jing laughed, and the smile was more genuine than before.
After a moment, the young man, whose eyes were like stars sinking into the sea, said one word: "Yes."
Chang Sui'an breathed a sigh of relief and asked insinuatingly: "Do you know who is Ning Ning's biological father?"
Before I heard some news today, I made a temporary decision to leave tomorrow and rush back to Jiangdu, and the young man immediately rushed back to bid me farewell.
During the dinner, tea was served instead of wine. Every time Cui Jing put a cup of tea on it, Yuan Xiang would diligently fill it up for me.
Although Cui Jing does not like socializing with people deep down in her heart, she does not like to be good at it - my experience in business as a young man made me very incapable of recognizing people, and my experience as a secret guard made me very good at starting from the smallest details. Observe things.
The teacup always remains full, while Yuanxiang always maintains full health for combat.
Cui Jing replied: [Because of General Chang Xiao.]
Bi Mei picked up the tea cup and nodded slightly to Chang Sui'an.
Recently, everyone in Jiangdu has been busy with the autumn harvest, even Chang Suining is no exception.
Cui Jing, who had always been soft-hearted, had deep thoughts that were too bloody but reasonable, even though the seven of them seemed to be having a good time talking to each other at the moment.
Chang Sui'an was frightened when he heard this. What kind of joke were those people making? Little Governor Cui would be angry, right?
I know what Cui Jing was referring to when he said "the wind and sand are about to rise". The capital has summoned various vassal kings and military envoys to the capital. The situation will soon change little.
At first, Bi Meiyao was very surprised when she saw Cui Jing in the army. I am the Meng Dong family who came to Dengtai Tower, Jie Jingshi. Why am I the one responsible for escorting the money and food this time? Why do I work for Ning Ning?
Looking at each other for a moment, Cui Jing smiled slightly, nodded and objected: "Little Governor Cui has very bad eyesight."
Although appearance is an internal property of the body, and ability and internal and external cultivation are more important, it can be admitted that having a bad-looking person on your side can not only please the eyes, soothe the mood, but also increase appetite, and is a must-have at home.
That was a very straightforward question.
The sound was heavy, but it always moved.
However, Cui Jing showed no reaction and even took a sip of tea.
But Cui Jing also knows that it is because of my great attention.
It is true that the young man did not have many advantages that others could not match, but for Bi Mei, the smallest advantages were nothing more than those two points.
At this point, Chang Sui'an tried to ask Meng Dong's family why they were doing things for their sister.
As far as Cui Jing is concerned, although I am secretly observing him, I do not have the right to express my opinion on behalf of my family, so it is naturally appropriate for me to reveal any clear attitude.
As a military envoy, although you must go to the fields to harvest and work in person, what awaits you is the small matter of the autumn festival.
Bi Meiyao was slightly startled, and an idea popped up in her mind. After enduring it for a few days, she finally had the courage to test Cui Jing. My words of testing were not tactful, so I just asked Cui Jing directly: "Are you not the right person?"
Ning Ning’s biological father?]
As the old saying goes, the trivial matters of a country depend on sacrifice and military affairs - soldiers can calm the heavens, while sacrifices can calm people's hearts.
"What, my father-in-law saw that my husband is here?" Bi Mei stared: "But that man is also my father-in-law."
But everyone is generally used to it.
Gong Dou: "Thank you less, I have you."
Bi Mei was indeed observing Gong Dou secretly during those days.
Ever since she learned that it was impossible for her sister to figure out her true life story, Chang Sui'an had been guessing her sister's father every day and night.
Aware of the eyes that were always staring at the tea cup in her hand, Cui Jing hesitated several times. She felt that such coldness was more or less unbearable. I didn't even dare to hold the cup.
Before finishing the Autumn Festival, Chang Sui Ning didn't have a moment of leisure. He spent almost every day in the study discussing matters with everyone.
Gong Dou raised his hand: "The Meng Dong family should take care of themselves."
If the other party's wavering makes His Majesty happy or sad, or if he threatens His Majesty in the future, he can be imprisoned or killed as long as His Majesty is willing.
When Bi Meiyao looked at Cui Jing, she still had no confusion in her heart.
Everyone bid farewell to Meng Lie with tea instead of wine, and none of the generals started to coax: "... Meng Lie will naturally go back together. General Yu said that Meng Lie is the dowry of our little governor!"
Just from this incident, Cui Jing's impression of Bi Mei was very wrong.
Someone else lowered their voice and said, "What do you call this? You are not a family, you don't belong to the same family... You are born to be our Xuance Army's in-laws!"
Before the banquet ended, Cui Jing and Gong Dou talked alone for a while while there were people in the tent.
I did walk faster, and Governor Cui's desire to deliver the letter did ease up.
As a matter of etiquette, he immediately gave Bi Mei a toast.
With this thought in mind, Chang Sui An Shijin quietly took a look at Bi Mei's expression. Seeing that she did not show any anger or enthusiasm, but only a little less restrained, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Cui Jing was silent for a while. It was ten days later, but one month later. This shows that the other party initially thought about letting me take him back to Jiangdu, but seeing that I was delayed in leaving, he finally chose to send someone else to deliver the message.
