Concubine Yu's biography

"Count the number of people!" Meng Qijun shouted in a hoarse voice.

"one two three four……"

Meng Zou on the side looked at the suddenly large number of soldiers and remained silent.

The deputy future reported the number of people, and then listened to Meng Qijun's instructions. Everyone was divided into four groups and went to sea for drills one by one.

General Meng, who temporarily put down his work, took a deep breath and went to the side to drink water.

Meng Zou, who was a mother-in-law, followed his father without farting, with a begging expression of hesitating to speak.

Meng Qijun, who had not put down the kettle and turned his back to him, suddenly said, "If you have anything to say, hurry up and get the hell out of here, and don't hang around me like a follower."

Meng Zou was born with a well-behaved face, with slightly raised eyebrows, he looked "dissatisfied with everything", and he had been dissatisfied for a whole few months.

"Yudu...the emperor issued a new conscription order and labor order some time ago..." Although this matter has been in his mind for a long time, he still doesn't know how to organize it when he really says it.

"What's your opinion?" Meng Qijun wiped his mouth with a completely indifferent expression.

Meng Zou felt that any individual would feel that there were serious problems with these two laws. As for the bottom-line statement...

"That's ridiculous!" He said in a low voice, "Yu... what is the emperor thinking? He has not been on the throne for a long time, his foundation is not stable, and he needs the support of the original forces, but he issued a decree like this..." No Jump into the fire pit by yourself?He almost suspected that Yu Bichu was seeking his own death.

In terms of being well-informed, Meng Zou is naturally inferior to Meng Qijun.It's just that Lao Meng is cunning and cunning, he doesn't show his clues, even if he knows everything, he hides it well, and outsiders have no way of knowing it.

So he judged from Meng Zou's words that he must not know about the massacre of several gentry families in successive days.

He turned around, patted Meng Zou on the shoulder, and when he was sideways with him, he said, "Whether it's absurd or not is not up to you or me. Look there, that's what we should do."

Meng Zou almost thought his father was crazy.

With a dark face, he hurried out of the arena, while taking off the soft armor on his body, an extremely stern aura enveloped his whole body.

The beautiful city of Lanhe River had fought with Yu Bichu and their team going south, but it was not affected, so it is still a prosperous city.

Meng Zou, who left without authorization, went up a small building a little sneakily.

The location of the small building is impartial, in the intersection of the busy city and residential areas, it can be said to be a mixed bag, but it can also be said to be quiet and natural.

Meng Zou knocked on the door twice, and after receiving the answer, he gently pushed it open.A person standing by the window turned half of his body against the light, revealing half of his hideous face.

"Zhengyuan! Why did you come by yourself?"

The person who came was Chu Zhengyuan who had been recuperating from serious injuries.

Chu Zhengyuan twitched the corners of his mouth, looking crooked.

He was unfortunately affected by stray bullets in the previous battle, and most of his face was almost completely destroyed.As far as I can see now, the left cheek, nose, right eye, and large forehead, the healed brown flesh is still creepy.

Chu Zhengyuan stood by the window, his light blue robe blown by the wind.In addition to the face that is difficult to look directly at, you can still vaguely see the handsome young man who was the "disaster for women" back then.

Meng Zou's throat twitched, feeling like a lump in his throat, and he didn't know how to speak.

"What, Wood? You think I'm ugly too?" Chu Zhengyuan's words sounded a bit bitter with a forced smile.

"No!" Meng Zou said hurriedly, then pursed his lips, and said honestly, "It's just... not very suitable."

"It should be." Chu Zhengyuan went too far calmly, he waved his hand to let Meng Zou sit down, poured a cup of tea by himself, showing the same terrifying left hand. "I wasn't used to it at first. I looked in the mirror like a ghost. I got used to it...that's it. Is it?"

Meng Zou, who couldn't understand his thoughts, nodded dumbly.

"Are you still angry with your father?" Chu Zhengyuan, who had gone through a big change, still talked a lot, and his tone was still that of an arrogant and self-confident son, and he couldn't see the blow caused by this accident at all.

"It's not anger! I..." He couldn't finish talking, and the tea that Chu Zhengyuan brought to him stopped his mouth.

Chu Zhengyuan said expressionlessly: "Do you know that Ji Yuanzheng's life and death are unknown?"

There are only a handful of people who don't know about this matter, Meng Zou didn't understand what Chu Zhengyuan meant, so he kept silent.

"He's fine," Chu Zhengyuan said lightly, "I don't know where the news came out, but it's said to be accurate anyway."

For Meng Zou, it was difficult to tell good news from bad news, especially when facing such a face as his friend.

"I found a few letters, you sent them to me." He took out some envelopes from his arms, "But I didn't see the contents." Having said that, he saw Meng Zou's face change slightly, and he knew his guess was correct. Nine is not far from ten.

He sighed, "It seems that my father has instilled a lot of things in you through my name."

Meng Zou clenched his fist under the table. From the moment he entered the door, he felt that Chu Zhengyuan's state was completely different from the emotion he had been sending and receiving letters. It turned out that the person who wrote the letter was not him at all.

"The latest one is with me and I haven't replied yet, so you probably don't know the status of these few days." Chu Zhengyuan rubbed his throat, as if he felt uncomfortable speaking, coughed, and said in his most serious tone: " As of last night, except for the Wang family and the Chu family, all the noble families in Yudu have been wiped out."

As soon as the news came out, Meng Zou didn't know how to react.

Chu Zhengyuan looked into his eyes and said, "You guessed it, and everyone thought it."

Meng Zou suddenly remembered what his father told him before leaving Yudu, and couldn't help but stand on end.

"No one has any evidence, and no one can bring it up, so people are panicking now." He said in a nonchalant tone, "I heard my father talking to some adults a few days ago. The emperor asked Jiang Jiang to investigate Ji Yuan's situation thoroughly. It turned out that the pirates from the east were colluding with the people from the North Korea and China. It is also a coincidence that the few people who were just found out happened to be slaughtered."

Meng Zou was trembling all over. He only saw Yu Bi come out once in the night when he was captured. On the face of it, he was just a man with a cold personality and even a little unreasonable. He never thought that he would use this method to eradicate dissidents blatantly. !

Chu Zhengyuan saw that his reaction was a little big, so he smiled inwardly, and said the next thing, this one-brained stupid piece of wood is probably going to overturn the table.

"Drink the tea and calm down, and I will tell you a few more shocking things."

Meng Zou's eyes were tight, and his brown eyes were motionless. He picked up the tea and drank it whole when he heard Chu Zhengyuan's words. After wiping his mouth, he felt like a strong man who was windy and cold, and said tragically: " Tell me!"

Chu Zhengyuan's heart was calm, these things were indeed horrifying, but in the ears of old friends like them, there was a sense of sadness for no reason.

However, the wooden stake that always does not turn in front of me probably can't feel it.

"Although you are free in Yudu, you have closed your eyes and listened, so you don't know some things." It can be seen from his reaction when he mentioned Ji Yuan.Chu Zhengyuan had a kind of mischievous mind, but Meng Zou's expression was very single, that is, he was surprised and angry, and there were only those two back and forth, which was really boring.

"What's the matter?" He was fully prepared to accept all the shocking information.

"They say that Ji Yuan is the emperor's male favourite." Without giving Meng Zou a chance to react, he said with an even more shocking expression: "So the cause of this incident is entirely because of those few who don't know what to do. The idiot implicated the entire gentry. But now there is news that Ji Yuan is fine. Everyone knows that the risks at sea are unpredictable and are not within the scope of human control. But Ji Yuan is so "blessed and fateful", so my father and the others I suspect that this may have been a trap designed by them from the very beginning, to use excuses to eradicate the gentry."

Meng Zou: "..." He finally knew why his father didn't let him get involved in Yudu's affairs.With his brain, a few lives are not enough to calculate.

"No! If it's a trap, the emperor can execute a group of people with legitimate reasons. Why do you want to leave people talking like this?"

"This is the last thing I want to tell you." Chu Zhengyuan said, "Because the current rumors show that this approach is Ji Yuan's consistent style."

Meng Zou didn't understand the meaning of his words at first, but after reacting for a while, he realized that what Chu Zhengyuan meant was that this whole thing was designed by Ji Yuan.

But...he knew Ji Yuan better than Yu Bichu, and even if he wanted to break his head, he didn't think he was such a person.

"The rumors came from the people. Do you still remember Yu Fangzhi? The one I went to the Thirteen Peaks to surrender."

Meng Zou nodded.

"Same as him, there are five people, one of them is Dong Xiao, you have seen him by his side." Seeing that Meng Zou recalled a little difficultly, he leaned on the back of the chair and waited for him slowly.

"I probably have an impression, but I can't remember exactly."

"It's okay." He said: "Those six people were selected by Ji Yuan from Cangbei Jiucheng and trained for several years, and they were specially sent to various places to cause trouble. At that time, there were a lot of them in the group of bandits who made a big noise. Less credit."

"Ji Yuan planned it?"

"The rumor is."

But before the Bandit Ridge incident became serious, Ji Yuanming stayed in Yudu all the time.Meng Zou suddenly remembered the year when Ji Yuan disappeared, and his changed temperament after that.Is that what happened during that time?

"Besides..." Chu Zhengyuan said slowly, "The unresolved conflicts in Northwest Bingzhou, the fleeing Chitu, the untimely advance of the Northern Tatars, and the massacre of Qiwu are all his masterminds. "

Meng Zou: "..."

There was an embarrassing silence in the room. After a long time, Chu Zhengyuan burst out laughing. First he raised his head and laughed, then he laughed too much, and he simply lay down on the table and laughed nonstop.

Meng Zou watched coldly, not knowing where the joke was.Until he had laughed enough, his shoulders trembled and half of his face was exposed, and he smiled and said, "Wu Mu, you really believe it!"

He suddenly froze.

As if he had been teased, Meng Zou recovered his breath, looking at Young Master Chu who had cleaned himself up meticulously, he was furious.If he hadn't looked at his pitiful honor, he would have punched him!

"Not really?" he asked in a suppressed voice.

Chu Zhengyuan pulled his mouth that was crooked when he smiled, and said frankly: "Of course not, you don't look at Ji Yuan's virtue, it's good to remember when you eat, you can think of so many crazy things thing?"

Faced with these words, Meng Zou was speechless.But he has always had a grudge against Ji Yuan, the specific source is unclear, but a large part must be about the person in front of him.

So he asked: "Zheng Yuan, don't you hate Ji Yuan at all?"

Chu Zhengyuan was stunned for a moment, and then remembered his injury, feeling a little helpless, "I said why is something wrong with you all the time." He pointed to his face, "It was injured by a stray bullet, and it was from the imperial court according to the direction. What does Ji Yuan have to do with it?"

The fact is this, Meng Zou knows, but he is against Ji Yuan from the bottom of his heart.

There are some things and some feelings in the world that are hard to tell apart.

"Okay, I've made it clear, don't get angry with your father, go back quickly. Also, next time you have something to ask me out directly, don't ask me in the letter."

Chu Zhengyuan watched Meng Zou walk out of the small building, and the corners of his mouth drooped impartially.

He didn't believe it, but those rumors were indeed true.

And his immortal father.He didn't dare to tell Meng Zou these words, if it wasn't for the drastic change in the situation this time, no one would know that he had hidden such ambitions.
