Meng Dong

The vegetarian meal in Qingyun Temple tastes really good, no wonder Mrs. Bai has to come here to escape the summer heat even though she is staying in the palace. son.

Meng Dongan finished the meal quietly. Due to his personality, he was not particularly eager because of Mrs. Bai's protection in front of others. He also knew that the other party only did what he wanted to do and did not need anyone's gratitude. Don't care about other people's feelings.

In this regard, she is very similar to Yan Hong, mother and son.

The same old Mrs. Bai didn't have any special attitude towards Meng Dong, as if he was just a close friend brought back by her son as a guest, even though no one in Qingyun Temple knew better than her how this handsome young man was related to her son. what relationship.

After lunch, Yan Hong took the initiative to express his reluctance, implying that he wanted to stay with Mrs. Bai in Qingyun Temple for a while. Even in front of Meng Dong, the old lady did not leave anything for her son. Sensitively, he rejected Yan Hong directly, and called a maid to see the guests off.

Yan Hong didn't really want to live in Qingyunguan, this seemed to be a unique way of getting along between their mother and son. Yan Hong knew that his mother didn't like being disturbed and deliberately teased her, while the old lady said that she disliked her son very much, but she still stretched out her hand and was gentle. Carefully touched Yan Hong's face.

Meng Dong didn't know if all the normal mothers and children in the world get along like this. He quietly watched the interaction between their mother and child, and a few different feelings arose from the bottom of his heart.Especially when he saw Mrs. Bai looking at Yan Hong, he saw a clear tenderness from there, just like the love and affection that all mothers in the world contain when they look at their sons.

That was something Meng Dong had never experienced before.

No, he should have had a brief experience, it should be many, many years ago, when there was no Qiwu Pavilion, and he was not Meng Dong.

It's a pity he doesn't have a deep impression on him anymore.

After all, after that, most of his life was occupied by pain and depression. The few remaining vague memories of his childhood were as strange as his previous life. little connection.

In fact, that was already another life.Today's Meng Dong has embarked on a path that was completely unforeseen, and endured pain and suffering that the innocent and carefree child could not have imagined.

But it doesn't matter, as long as what he wants can be realized in the end, he still has a way to get his life back on the right track, and he can act as if nothing happened in these years and be himself again.

Today, Meng Dong has been able to hide his emotions very well, even in front of Yan Hong, he did not reveal the slightest bit.The little bit of envy and bitterness that suddenly surged into my heart disappeared in an instant, as if nothing had happened.Yan Hong, the person involved, will never know how much Meng Dong envied the most ordinary and simple relationship between mother and child for a moment.

In Meng Dong's world, there is only one thing that is most important--the ten-day period he set immediately, and the things he wants to know should have come to fruition, and he has to go back to the Qiwu Hall to get the result himself.

Originally, he planned to wait for that day to find a reason to go back. After all, Yan Hong knew that he was not a real male favorite. No matter how bad the relationship between mother and child was, he was the only young master of Qiwu Coffin, and it was not okay to go back occasionally. That's too much.Besides, based on what he knows about Yan Hong now, this man will promise him most things.

But Meng Dong still has worries in his heart—for a while, he and Yan Hong have been inseparable almost day and night. Naturally, Yan Hong will not refuse his request to return to the Wu Coffin, but it is very likely that he will accompany him back to the Wu Coffin, in front of this person. There are many things that are inconvenient to do in front of you, and you may not notice it for a while, and it may arouse the other party's suspicion.

Meng Dong tried to find a more reasonable reason for himself to go out alone, but before he could think it through, Yan Hong first received a letter from the army.

The two were playing chess at the time, Yan Hong was lazily leaning on the soft bed, holding a chess piece in his hand, but his eyes were fixed on Meng Dong's hand holding the piece, as if he could guess Meng Dong's next move just by looking at it like this where to fall.

Holding the sleeping hare in his arms, Meng Dong unconsciously caressed the rabbit's ears with one hand, and rubbed the chess pieces on his fingertips with the other hand, staring at the chessboard with all his attention.He has maintained this posture for a while, but he has not dared to make a move. The more times he plays chess with Yan Hong, the more he feels that this person is not simple. This person is confident and patient, and his mind is unfathomable. In the end, it may have a huge effect, causing Meng Dong to be extremely energetic, making every move carefully and carefully.

Yan Hong was not in a hurry, just looking at Meng Dong's expression, he found it very interesting, while looking at it, he reached for the teacup, only to realize that he had already drank it up, and was about to turn around and call Qing Ming to come in for more tea. Ming had already walked in quickly, he glanced at Meng Dong first, took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Yan Hong, and said softly, "It's from the army."

Recently, the two have been eating and living together. Yan Hong never shies away from Meng Dong in everything, but Meng Dong is very winking. For example, at this moment, he never even raised his head, as if he didn't notice that there was another person in the room at all.

It's not that he doesn't want to find out what kind of connection Yan Hong maintains with the army, but he can't do it in this way.

Yan Hong opened the letter and glanced at it, his brows furrowed unconsciously. He hurriedly read the whole letter, and raised his head to find that Meng Dong was still staring at the chessboard in a state that could not be disturbed. The white piece that had been tipped for a long time finally landed. Meng Dong heaved a sigh of relief, and raised his head to look at Yan Hong: "My lord, it's your turn."

Yan Hong glanced at the chessboard, folded the letter and handed it back to Qingming: "Go and get me some tea, and let the kitchen cook some sweet soup to cool off the heat."

Qing Ming took the order to retreat, Yan Hong picked up another chess piece, glanced back and forth on the chessboard, and suddenly said: "Tomorrow, the king has some business to go out of the mansion, if you think you are bored in the mansion, Do you want to leave the mansion for a stroll in the city, or simply go back to Qiwu Coffin and directly order Qingming to prepare a carriage for you."

"Huh?" Meng Dong was rubbing the hare's stomach with his fingertips. Others said that the hare was timid, but this one seemed to be an exception. It took less than a day to get acquainted with Meng Dongsi, sticking to it all day long. Beside him, from time to time, he rubbed his nose against Meng Dong's hand to ask him to play with him. If it wasn't for Yan Hong's mind of sharing the bed with this little thing, Meng Dong might have one more person to eat and live with.

Meng Dong subconsciously stopped his hands, raised his head and looked at Yan Hong: "Is the prince busy tomorrow?"

Yan Hong quickly settled down, and said casually: "It will be the death day of the father soon. Every year when this time comes, I will go to the army even if I pretend to be, to patrol the camp and listen to boring military affairs. Showing your face in front of the soldiers of the three armies also made those old generals feel at ease. If it was somewhere else, I would naturally take you with me. Get used to me, I don’t want to go too far at this time, if they get angry and crash into me in front of me, I will go underground and I will not be able to explain to my father.”

As Yan Hong said, he raised his head and smiled at Meng Dong: "It takes more than half a day to go back and forth. You can play outside, and wait for the king to come back to pick you up and go back to the mansion together."

Meng Dong bent his lips, and nodded lightly: "Okay." After he finished speaking, he took a white piece, and his eyes fell on the chessboard before he felt something was wrong. He stared at the chessboard for a long time, and raised his head in disbelief. Look at Yan Hong.

Yan Hong met his gaze and showed a stunned expression: "Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention just now, I won again."

The smile on Meng Dong's face suddenly collapsed, he threw the white piece in his hand on the chessboard with some annoyance, stood up with the hare in his arms, walked to the window and looked out: "Meng Dong is not good at chess, so don't waste the prince It's time. It will be cool outside, I will take it to the garden for a walk, and take a look at the flowers that the prince planted a few days ago."

After Meng Dong finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Yan Hong who was about to get up: "My lord wasted so much energy playing chess just now, let's take a good rest in the room." After speaking, he hugged the hare and went out without looking back.

Qingming came in with a new tea and almost bumped into him. She hurriedly took two steps back and let him pass by. She was still a little dazed when she entered the room, and she couldn't help asking: "Mr. Meng, what's wrong?"

A playful smile appeared on Yan Hong's lips, and he glanced in the direction Meng Dong left: "I haven't won a game of chess for a few days, so I became angry from embarrassment."

Qing Ming understood, lowered her head and poured tea for Yan Hong, and said casually: "In the beginning, the lord lost a few games to Mr. Meng from time to time, which made him happy, and also aroused Mr. Meng's addiction to chess. Can't you just give up a game every day?"

YXZL.

Yan Hong laughed, did not answer Qing Ming's words, took a sip of tea slowly, and then said slowly: "It has been more than a month since he entered the mansion, do you think he has changed compared to the first time? "

Qing Ming frowned and thought for a while before hesitating, "What changes can happen in a month? If it weren't for the calculations, it's probably because I'm getting acquainted with me gradually, and I don't have as many formalities as before, and I seem to be more at ease. And then..." Qingming recalled her first impression of Meng Dong. After getting along with him for a while, she felt that he was not that kind of person at all, but she still couldn't fully describe this person, and she didn't know how to answer Yan Hong's question. , there was inevitably a bit of confusion on his face.

Yan Hong looked like an old god on his face, and he took his confusion into his eyes: "It's not just because I'm getting acquainted with you gradually, isn't it even more so with me? With the politeness and alienation that cannot be hidden, in fact, that should be his most instinctive attitude towards strangers. Although he has pretended well, it seems to me that it is very contradictory, and now..." Yan Hong said His fingers slid over the tea cover, he remembered something, and said after a long time, "Don't you think he looks even better when he smiles?"

"Ah?" Qing Ming still dare not stare at Meng Dong for too long, it is because this man's appearance is too beautiful, it is easy for people to forget what he is going to do now, so he did not Noticing the difference between this person's smile now and before, anyway, for him, he dare not look at it.

Yan Hong raised his head and showed a smile that Qingming couldn't understand: "Although I found that stinky Taoist priest Qingxin last time, he was of no use. But fortunately, seven or seventy-nine days will soon pass, and this king unexpectedly I feel like I have a little bit of hope.”

Yan Hong's thoughts and Meng Dong are unpredictable. The two of them get along so naturally and easily during this time that Meng Dong almost forgets that he is actually Yan Hong's male favorite in name, and that after 49 days, the two of them should something happened.In other words, he no longer fears and cares about that matter so much.

It can even be said that without realizing it, I developed a habit and dependence on Yan Hong that I had never had before.This was actually not a good thing for him, but all the changes happened unconsciously, and when he found out, everything was settled and there was no turning back.

When Meng Dong woke up early the next morning, seeing the empty pillows around him, he felt a little disappointed from the bottom of his heart.He raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, got off the bed with his bare feet, and as soon as Fang opened the door, Qingming greeted him: "My lord, are you awake?"

Meng Dong nodded, looked around, and asked casually, "Your Highness is out?"

"Leave before dawn." Qing Ming handed Meng Dong some water to rinse his mouth, "Before he left, the lord ordered to prepare carriages and horses for you, so you can go shopping as you please."

Meng Dong responded, closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened them again, his expression was much more normal: "Then please take me back to Qiwu Pavilion later, I have some things to do."

Naturally, Qingming would not question what Yan Hong had ordered a long time ago: "The breakfast is ready, and you can use it after you freshen up." I couldn't help wondering if there was something wrong with what my lord said yesterday. When Mr. Meng first arrived, he had a smile on his face all day long, although you couldn't tell if the smile was from the heart.But after they talked for a long time today, he didn't see a smile on Mr. Meng's face, and he seemed a little more indifferent.

Qingming thought for a while, and recalled the time when the two of Yan Hong got along with each other in the mansion, and suddenly felt blessed. Did my lord mean that Mr. Meng could only smile so nicely in front of him?

Meng Dong couldn't detect Qingming's thoughts, and he didn't want to. After a simple breakfast, he left the palace gate and went straight to Qiwu Pavilion. Of course, this time he didn't go out alone. Looking at the sticky hare.

Everything in the Qiwu Pavilion seems to have not changed much compared to the past. There are laughter, music and songs everywhere, and the exchange of guests is very lively.This is the place Meng Dong was most familiar with, and his usual life in the past ten years.But this time, holding the obedient hare in his arms, he walked past it expressionlessly, and for the first time, a little disgust rose from the bottom of his heart.

But he was always able to hide his emotions very well. He walked through the museum with a smile and greeted many acquaintances warmly. No one noticed what kind of turmoil he had in his heart until he walked to the small building.

Meng Dong stopped in front of the small building as usual, lowered his eyes slightly, and looked at the hare in his arms.The rabbit finally got used to the palace, and it would inevitably feel frightened when it was suddenly brought into an unfamiliar environment. It huddled itself in Meng Dong's arms, with its two front paws grasping his arm, its ears tied up, and it was very vigilant. Looking around.

Its appearance made Meng Dong smile a little, he tapped its ear with his fingertips, and said softly: "There are people coming and going in this Qiwu Pavilion, so I can not only take you with me, but also save a lot of trouble. Pay attention to someone who will catch you drinking. So you can only go in with me, but you must agree in advance that it is very dark in there, if you are afraid, you can hide in my arms obediently." His eyelashes drooped , casting a small shadow on his face, "It's okay, I'm here."

Everything here is still the same as before, and there is no way to welcome Meng Dong just because he knows in advance that he will come back today.Meng Dong went upstairs all the way, stopped in front of the gauze tent, leaned forward and saluted: "Mother."

"Well," said a hoarse voice, "you have already found out what you want to investigate. It took a lot of effort to find out what happened more than ten years ago."

"As long as the result is good, it's not a pity to spend so much effort. Didn't my mother teach me?" Meng Dong smiled softly, reached out to touch the little thing in his arms, and the other party warmed him. The body made the cold attic suddenly warmer, and the expression on Meng Dong's face became much more relaxed.

There was a slight movement in the gauze tent, and when it tilted slightly, a maid covered in tulle stepped out and handed a tightly sealed letter to Meng Dong.Meng Dong took the letter in his hand and touched it lightly, feeling the thickness inside. It can be seen that this investigation really took a lot of effort, and a lot of things were brought back.

He put away the secret letter, stood up and nodded towards the gauze tent: "Since I got the things, my son will not bother you."

There was silence in the gauze tent for a while, and then slowly said: "Aren't you here to take a look? If the things you find are not what you want, you can call someone to deal with them yourself."

Meng Dong raised his lips and smiled mockingly: "My mother must have read the things inside, since you can give it to me, it means that there is nothing wrong with the things in it. I said it, and I believe it very much. Mother."

"Since you've found what you want, you should hurry up and don't delay any longer. Don't forget that the reason you worked so hard to get into the palace is not to accompany that good-for-nothing prince to travel around the mountains and rivers for fun." The voice was quite harsh, "Or is it that the rich clothes and fine food in the palace made you so dazzled that you forgot what you should do."

The hare in his arms was startled by the sudden reprimand, and buried his whole head in Meng Dong's arms, his exposed ears still trembling uncontrollably.Meng Dong slowly raised his head and stared at the gauze curtain: "As expected of mother, even if I enter the palace, I can firmly grasp my whereabouts." He lowered his head and casually played with his fingers, "It's just that I want to Remind you, this Jiangling City is the territory of Nanjun King after all, no matter how useless he is, the tens of thousands of troops outside Jiangling City are not useless, those people under your command should take it easy and know what to do and what not to do , The province's exposure has implicated me."

He made a crisp sound with his knuckles, which was particularly obvious in the silent attic: "As for what I should do, don't worry, I will never forget it in this life, you don't have to remind me every time we meet I."

After finishing speaking, he patted the hare that had just been frightened soothingly, turned around and was about to go out, but before he had gone a few steps, he suddenly heard the voice behind him continue: "What is in your arms?"

"Huh?" Meng Dong picked up the rabbit and showed it to the gauze tent, "Don't you know that that day I accompanied the King of Nanjun out of the city to play in the mountains and rivers, and made him happy, so I gave this little thing to me. So mother, look, what should I do? Not only did I not forget, but I also did a good job. The king of Nanjun likes me very much now. All I want now is this rabbit. I don’t care if I want anything else in the future. No. Speaking of it, we have painstakingly arranged it for so many years, and spent so much effort, but it has no effect. If I knew that my face is so useful, I should have tried it earlier."

Meng Dong hugged the rabbit back into his arms, left a mocking sneer, and left this nightmare-like place without looking back.

The weather outside was not bad, Meng Dong carried the rabbit to the side of the lotus pond, put it down and let it explore by itself, sat down by the pond by himself, and his eyes fell on the lotus in the pond.It has been a while since he entered the palace, because no one came to this lotus pond on weekdays, and no one came to take care of him when he was not in the hall. Potential.

He doesn't like it here, but he can only stay here.After all, the sky is big and the earth is big, and this is the only place he can control. Only here he doesn't have to worry about being disturbed by others, let alone pretending to hide himself, and worrying about being exposed all the time.

He stretched out his hand and broke off the fading lotus flower closest to him, and threw it aside casually, then picked another lotus leaf and played with it in his hand.

The hare was very timid in an unfamiliar environment, it only walked around Meng Dong, and then returned to him, seeing something in his hand, it immediately moved towards him.Seeing its appearance, Meng Dong couldn't help feeling a little funny, deliberately teased it with the lotus leaf, brought it closer to the tip of its nose, and then suddenly took it away when it was about to bite, enjoying itself back and forth.

After playing like this for a while, he suddenly felt a little bored, so he threw the lotus leaf to the rabbit and let it play by itself.The whole person lay down on his back, stared at the bright sun above his head and regained his senses, and finally reached out and took out the thick secret letter from his bosom.
