Chapter 255 Visit
When Zhou Sheng mentioned the little marquis, his rough face was full of anger.
It is very dissatisfied with people from all families in Nan'an County, and it can even be said to be hated.
On the same day, the Minghualou bloody incident, the Marquis Fang was taken away by Cui Qin, the county government, and was released after a day and a night.
After that, before he had time to rest, he carried a great gift with his tired spirit and weak body. He greeted all families at the flower banquet that day, one family at a family, without exception, to express his guilt of causing death and injury.
Unfortunately, his condolences did not work.
Those who were also concerned about the majesty of the Marquis' Mansion only responded plainly and made cold treatments. Therefore, those who died of successors were not afraid of the Marquis' Mansion at all, and threw the heavy gifts he carried back to him, then swept the floor and went out without any affection.
Anyway, Xiaohou Fang has been living a very unhappy life these days. He has been busy so far and has not improved.
That's why I had the idea of leaving Nan'an and taking office in Jizhou Prefecture City.
As we were chatting, the little marquis walked in under the door in a dress of frequent obedience, with a smoky and fire-like atmosphere. I don’t know what he had done before. There were two big men wearing swords following him to protect him.
Compared to what he saw that day, he seemed a little cold and arrogant. After these changes in time, the originally clear gaze of Marquis Fang was a little more tired, with bloodshot in his pupils, and it was obvious that he had not had a rest for several days.
However, when I saw Meng Zhao, I still forced myself to cheer up, cheer up, and greeted him.
"Meng Xiaosi, it's good to see that you are fine. I wanted to greet you these days, but"
As he said that, Mr. Fang shook his head bitterly. Meng Xi and Meng Zhao were also seriously injured by Zhu Guangxi and the secret treasures he brought. Especially Meng Xi, whose dantian was damaged and he heard that he had been sent to other places for treatment, so he did not dare to come to him at all.
Seeing this, Zhou Sheng, Lu Zhong, Lu Le, and the two big knives with swords walked out of the house sensibly, closed the door, and waited outside to avoid disturbing the two of them.
"Don't worry, my injury is not serious. I just need some time to recuperate and recover as before. However, my elder brother is more troublesome, but it has nothing to do with the young marquis. After all, it was caused by the assassin Zhu Guangxi."
In fact, Mr. Fang was really unfair. Most of the people who went to Minghualou to attend the banquet that day wanted to stick to him, a noble man from the Marquis' Mansion. He was not deliberately plotting against him. Who would have thought that such an accident would occur?
"After that being said, it was because of me that such a tragedy happened. Those people blamed me for it."
Mr. Fang said in frustration, then shook his head, as if he wanted to throw all his worries and sorrows out of his mind, and then forced a smile and said,
"By the way, you came to see me today. Did you hear that I was leaving Nan'an and saw me off specifically?"
Meng Zhao nodded, took out a small red wooden box from his cuff, and handed it to Xiaohou Fang, saying,
"This is a gift I prepared for you. I originally planned to hand it over to you after meeting in Minghualou last time. Who knows what happened later will be left to this day."
The little Marquis Fang showed a look of relief and took the wooden box casually. He didn't care much about what it was. Instead, he pulled Meng Zhao down and said with emotion,
"Today, if you still have such thoughts, you will only be left in Nan'an City for one day, and it's not in vain that I really regard you as a friend."
Meng Zhao didn't think that Mr. Fang's words were exaggerated.
Because he probably was the first and last person to visit since the accident.
This is not unrelated to the kindness and importance that the little marquis gave to him at that time, and of course it was because Meng Zhao wanted to make friends with such a noble honor from the capital.
In terms of titles alone, marquis can be more than Count.
King, prince, duke, county duke, marquis, count, viscount, baron, this is the aristocratic lord system of Dayong, from high to low, and leap from great significance.
The princes and above are basically from the royal family, with some exceptions. For example, the ancestor of the Shen family in Jinling, King Shenwu, was one of them, and only he was the only one, and he was demoted to Duke Xu.
However, Nan'anbo was the founding Count, and his ancestors were the most powerful in the world. He had good business from generation to generation. Few foolish and mediocre heads appeared, so he accumulated strength far beyond the ordinary Count's family.
In fact, if Meng Shentong had not been a rebellious person, unforgiving person, and doing many evil things that robbed the treasure houses of large and small forces, he would have a bad reputation, at least he would have been a marquis.
Therefore, the Qingning Marquis Mansion is worth making friends, especially Taizong trusted the first Qingning Marquis at that time. Now that he has experienced the Three Emperors, his honor and favor are still there and cannot be underestimated.
It can be said that Meng Zhao was able to come to visit and see him off today, which has already attracted enough favor in the little marquis' heart.
It is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to provide timely help, and the more difficult it is, the more valuable it is.
Meng Zhao did not worry about this, but asked about Zhu Guangxi. The people in Nan'an County were looking for it, and this little marquis probably wouldn't let the other party go.
"I'll tell me, Meng Xiaosi, don't be angry. In fact, I don't have much hatred for Zhu Guangxi, and I don't have the time or energy to find him these days, so I don't know his situation at all."
Meng Zhao browed and asked curiously,
"But if it weren't for Zhu Guangxi, the little marquis wouldn't be in such a difficult situation now.
If this person can be killed, it may be able to relieve many people's inner prejudice against the little marquis."
Mr. Fang waved his hand, free and easy, and said helplessly,
"Now I don't care what the people like Nan'an think of me. It doesn't matter whether Zhu Guangxi is killed or not, and I don't think I can catch him.
You should understand that Zhu Guangxi is just a chess piece. Without him, there will be Wang Guangxi and Liu Guangxi.
There is someone else who really kills me."
Meng Zhao was silent and did not reply. The water in it was indeed very deep, and he didn't really want to get involved.
The little marquis' lips moved, and he wanted to say something, and pour out his troubles and bitterness to others.
But after thinking about it, he still didn't speak, but sighed,
"Actually, I really want to tell you the whole story of this matter, such as who killed me and why I was killed.
Some things are really painful to be bored in my heart.
However, the other party is too big. This time I came out this time to avoid disasters rather than being an official and making achievements.
You know too much is not good, it is not good.
Let me tell you good news.
I heard that your Meng family has an opponent in Nan'an, the Sun family, is very difficult and once gave you a headache.
The reason is that they have a big backer in the capital, and that person is highly valued and trusted by the emperor.
But before I came, there was already news, and the backer of the Sun family might not be able to do it.
So your Meng family can rest assured and not avoid the resistance in the court, and do what you can do."
There are dragon cemeteries in Yujing and surrounding areas to suppress them, and they are afraid of weapons. Even if there is a fight, they often stop until they are there.
Different states like Jizhou are different. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. When fighting, it is even more bloody and cruel.
Meng Zhao smiled calmly and bowed to him to express his gratitude, but his emotions were not high.
He had known this before, and it did not happen naturally, but the Meng family interfered.
