On this brief trip, Meng Yue only brought the secret guard chief along with Bu Ting.
Hurrying up, we arrived in Jiangnan in one day.
Five years have passed, and things in Jiangnan have changed.
Prince Ke's Mansion, which was once full of laughter, now has no owner.
The dead branches and leaves all over the courtyard were only cleaned by the servants of the house.
When he arrived at the mansion, Meng Yue decided to stay in Jiangnan for a month.
If he couldn't find it in one month, he would try elsewhere.
When General Nalan disappeared together with his cronies, the incident might have been caused by his enemies, but Meng Yue didn't think so.
His enemy, Old General Nalan, spent his entire life in the military.
Although he is old now and no longer has military power, even if the strength accumulated in those years is not enough to threaten the imperial power, he can still protect himself.
He disappeared silently, and he didn't believe there was no reason for it.
There were very few people who could threaten old General Nalan, and the time of disappearance happened to be a few days after Nalan Chu disappeared.
The ingenuity of this has to make people think a lot.
Bu Ting analyzed it with him.
Thinking of this, he said in surprise: "What the prince means is that the princess found Old General Nalan, and then General Nalan disappeared."
"Um."
"Yes" Bu Ting was obviously hesitant.
Meng Yue said calmly: "But it doesn't matter."
Bu Ting said: "I'm sorry to say that the old general and the prince are at odds.
Could it be that the old general heard that the princess ran away with the crown prince and the princess, and thought that the prince had treated the princess badly, so he left in anger."
"Although your words are not unreasonable, General Nalan has already understood many things in his old age.
At this moment, even if he is at odds with me, even if he misunderstands me, before he met Chu'er, he He won't leave."
Meng Yue said, "Before he sees Chu'er, he will be worried about not seeing Chu'er again."
Bu Ting paused and said, "Then the old general must have met the princess before he disappeared."
"Yes.
It's just that based on Chu'er's character, I'm not sure whether she will settle in Jiangnan.
Anyway, I will stay in Jiangnan as long as possible."
Seeing the undisguised sadness and recollection on Meng Yue's face, Bu Ting sighed softly, if the princess had stayed for a few days before leaving, everything would have been different.
Back then, the princess had a quarrel with the prince because of Wanhe's affair with the princess.
The prince was about to find out the truth, but the princess took the first step.
In fact, in the final analysis, Concubine Qian is still to blame.
If it hadn't been for her, the prince and the princess would have lived like a couple of gods, how could they be so separated from each other now.
Compared to the prince, the princess was better off.
The prince and the princess were by her side, but the prince could only miss her alone late at night.
Looking at the life Meng Yue has lived in the past five years, even one of his subordinates can't help but feel sad.
In the past five years, although the prince has not personally gone to the capital to look for the princess, he has never given up looking for his wife and children.
I hope they can find the princess this time, and the two can put aside their past grudges and start anew.
Meng Yue seemed to be thinking deeply about something, her handsome eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and her eyes were fixed on one spot without turning at all.
Bu Ting understood that he had entered his own state of longing.
In that state, there were him and the princess, the prince and the princess, just like the happy life of a family of four five years ago.
Bu Ting knew that no outsider could enter this realm.
Bu Ting deliberately lowered his voice, moved his steps gently, and slowly closed the door so as not to disturb Meng Yue's purity.
But at this moment, Meng Yue unexpectedly said: "You think, since I haven't seen the crown prince and princess for such a long time, should I prepare gifts for them?
The crown prince likes the gift that the king gave him the most.
I remember that when he went on an expedition, he traveled thousands of miles.

The letters always mention gifts, and the princess also likes them.
Why does she like her?
She said that she likes things that her brother likes.
Both children like them, but if I find them, I have no gifts to give.
This will make the children more embarrassed.
They are sad” Bu Ting was stunned for a moment, then said: "Your Majesty, in fact, you prepare gifts for the Crown Princess every year.
Those things are now placed in the capital.
If you want, I will ask someone to bring them."
Meng Yue frowned, "No, times have changed.
The two children have grown up, and their temperament has naturally changed a lot.
They won't like those things anymore."
Bu Ting said nothing.
In such a scene, he had nothing to say and could not say anything.
But I thought in my heart that with the passage of time, I am afraid that the prince’s words imply that his status in the children’s hearts must not be as good as before.
The prince thought so, but he didn't think so.
He secretly sent someone back to Beijing to collect and bring those gifts, so that if he could find the crown prince and princess, they could see how much the prince missed them.
During his stay in Jiangnan, Meng Yue visited many places, most of which were places Nalan Chu liked.
Nalanchu likes to go shopping in busy markets, especially at night.
She said she enjoys going to the night market.
But Meng Yue said that the night market was a mixed bag of dragons and snakes, which was unsafe and made his ears hurt.
Nalan Chu smiled: "It's just because dragons and snakes are mixed together.
This is fun.
Just like me and you, we are holding hands while eating barbecue.
You don't like it here, but you have to let me go because I like it, and you also talk to me about love." .
Suddenly, a group of bandits rushed in.
You said it was clear in broad daylight, how could you wait to cause trouble, and then three The group of bandits were collected in just a few clicks.
The image is tall and righteous.
How romantic.
As for your ears hurting, you should walk in the night market more often.
Otherwise, you are used to a quiet environment and suddenly a sudden attack will occur.
It’s a busier place than the night market.
What should you do?
You might still be deaf by then, so you’d better walk with me more often.”
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"What nonsense, it's the truth."
Nalanchu smiled and fed the barbecue in his other hand to his mouth, "Come and eat, damn, we have been kissing for so many years, and you are still not used to eating me.
Something you’ve eaten before.
No, you have to eat this.”
That night, Meng Yue came to the largest night market in the south of the Yangtze River again.
The scene echoed a few years ago.
Looking at the scene in front of her, it can be said that she had mixed feelings.
The barbecue vendor was a short old man, about sixty years old.
Meng Yue had not seen him five years ago, so he must be a newcomer.
Walking to the vendor stall, after scanning the various meats on the grill, he habitually said: "Two skewers each of mutton, beef, and venison.
Hmm, make sure they are well cooked and add more spice."

At this point, he suddenly paused and suddenly smiled, "It turns out I'm the only one this time, forget it, I don't like eating these, so I won't want them anymore."
"Are you going to buy it or not?"
The vendor said in a somewhat unkind tone when he saw that he looked confused and stood in front of the stall to block the sight of other pedestrians.
Meng Yue was not annoyed and smiled lightly, "I won't buy it."
Meng Yue slowly turned around, his shoulder hurt slightly, as if he had been hit by someone.
He ignored it and left in a daze.
A few seconds later, a woman and two children came up to the barbecue grill.
The woman smiled and asked, "What do you want to eat today?
Mom's treat."
The older child pursed his lips and said, "Mom, you can't use my money for your treat."
"It's a joke, Mom uses your money.
My mother's family is very rich.
It's not like she has no money, so why use yours."
The beautiful woman refused to admit it.
The older child rolled his eyes and said, "Who knows.
You usually say nice things, saying that you should pay for whatever my brother and I buy.
However, after we bought it, you said that everyone is equal and we have to pay for what we buy. ” Nalanchu touched his chin and said with a smile: "Isn't it true that everyone is equal and pays for his own things?"
"But his mother is partial.
She likes my younger brother but doesn't like Ting Ning and my elder brother."
Meng Tingning pointed to her little brother Meng Tianyu beside her without any anger.
When Meng Tianyu saw the mention of herself, she quickly turned her attention from the fragrant barbecue to her sister, "Sister, that's not the case.
You and your brother have saved a lot of private money before, but Tianyu didn't save any.
When Tianyu was born Later, when it came time for me to save my own money, my brother and sister had already saved a lot.
My mother wanted to rob the rich and give to the poor, so she gave money to Tianyu every time."
Robbery from the rich and giving to the poor
Nalan first wanted to slap his youngest son on the head.
Robbing from the rich and giving to the poor, doesn't it mean that she admits that she is partial and still treats everyone as an equal?
My son, your IQ is far inferior to that of your brother.
When Meng Tingning heard what her brother said, she became even more angry.
She grabbed Meng Tianyu's collar with her fist and said, "You said that you would rob the rich and give to the poor.
Today I will rob the rich and give to the poor.
I will take all your private money and give it to you."
Give it to your sister, and she will let you go, otherwise she will ask her brother to beat you together. " Meng Tianyu was stunned for a while before he came to his senses.
Seeing how fierce her sister was, she almost burst into tears.
She looked at Nalanchu cutely with her big eyes filled with tears, and said in a tearful voice, "Mom, my sister wants to steal Tianyu's money."
However, Nalanchu stroked his forehead lightly and looked away without any trace, ignoring his son's plea for help.
What is this called?
You will not survive if you do it yourself.
Who told him to annoy Ting Ning?
Originally Ting Ning was having trouble with him, but he jumped in and said something he shouldn't have said.
No matter what Ting Ning wants to grab, she won't help anyway.
Of course, she knew her daughter's virtue and would definitely return it to Tian Yu after taking it away.
Even if she didn't want to return it, Hao'er would definitely ask her to return it when she found out.
Ting Ning didn't listen to her very much, but she listened to Hao'er very much.
When her mother didn't help, Meng Tianyu shed more tears, and her pitiful appearance made passers-by at the night market look at her several times.

Nalanchu suddenly thought that if Meng Tianyu cried and made a lot of noise at this time, people might think she was kidnapping children.
"Empress" Nalan Chu ignored her, and Meng Tingning gritted her teeth and said: "There's no point calling me mother, you little thing, bring me the money."
"If you don't give it, Tianyu's money is with my mother, so I won't give it to you."
Forehead Nalanchu couldn't help but secretly curse, Meng Tianyu, I won't give it if you don't give it, why do you say that the money is with me?
Isn't this the rhythm of letting your sister pester me.
"Mom, Tianyu's money."
Meng Tingning looked towards her as expected.
Meng Tianyu's eyes flashed with a smirk, he ignored his sister and mother, and continued to focus on the barbecue.
Nalan Chu touched his forehead, opened his mouth, laughed dryly, but only said: "Ting Ning, mother invites you to a barbecue, this time it won't cost you, okay?"
"You know how to treat your daughter so well?
Well, I agree to it.
But this time you also have to treat your brother to food."
Nalan Chu somehow managed to teach his daughter to have such a temperament with this attitude.
He didn't have the slightest sense of being a mother towards her, but this was also good, less of a mother's sense, but more of a friend.
In contrast, Nalanchu prefers to be friends with his daughter.
Nalan Chu smiled and said, "Your brother doesn't like eating."
Hao'er doesn't like going to night markets or eating barbecue.
He only likes to study civil and martial arts quietly by himself, which is exactly what he inherited from Meng Yue's character.
But Meng Tianyu liked this little one very much.
His eyes almost touched the barbecue and he was grilled together.
Meng Tingning thought about it and realized that her brother didn't like it.
No matter how unhappy she is, she finally managed to blackmail her into paying her, and today she wants to take her brother's share as well.
Because they are acquaintances and come here often, even if they stand in front of the stall for a long time, the old vendor is not annoyed.
Instead, he smiles and asks: "Ma'am, what are you going to order this time?"
"Eight skewers of mutton, beef, and venison should be cooked well, add more spiciness, and three bowls of porridge."
Nalan Chushumin said that after so many years, her taste has not changed, it is the same as before, but in the past, Meng Yue accompanied her when going to the night market, but now without Meng Yue, it is just the children.
The three of them, mother and son, sat at the table next to the barbecue and ate, each with a bowl of porridge.
When their mouths were salty, they drank the porridge, which was very moist.
Seeing that his sisters had four skewers of meat in each hand, while he only had two skewers in his own hands, Meng Tianyu felt unbalanced and gently tugged on Nalanchu's clothes, "Mom, you see, my sister eats more than you."
Lan Chu only had two strings in his hands.
It was obvious that Ting Ning was more unbalanced than him, yet he was using her as an excuse.
Nalan Chu touched his chin out of habit.
Why does she think Tianyu is stupid?
Before Nalanchu could speak, Meng Tingning glanced at her younger brother and hummed: "Sister eats brother's share.
As for you, who told your brother to like your sister?
Who told your brother to dislike you?
Who told you to be annoying?"
Well, who told you to be born late, who told you to have no money, who told your mother not to buy more for you, who told you?”
"Stop" Nalan Chu hurriedly stopped the woman's words, "That's enough, Xiao Tingning.
If you keep talking, your brother will be sad.
Who said that brother doesn't like Tianyu?
Our Tianyu is so lovable, isn't it?
Tianyu Yu.”
Meng Tianyu nodded sweetly, Meng Tingning pursed her lips and continued eating barbecue.
The vendor buying barbecue couldn't help but sigh: "Madam, the daughter and son are very lively and cute."

"Yes, both of them are treasures.
They both like your barbecue as much as I do.
Boss, I wish your business will grow bigger and bigger."
"Thank you, thank you for your good advice."
The merchant smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits.
He seemed to have thought of something and said with a smile: "My wife and your daughter have very special tastes.
There are not many people who have the same taste as you." , but by coincidence today, a husband came and ordered the same taste as you, but then said no, which was strange. " Nalanchu's eyelids twitched and his heart trembled slightly.
I don't know when my thoughts went back, but after a long while, I pointed at Meng Tianyu and said in a deep voice: "That husband's face is similar to this child."
The merchant was stunned, and looked at Meng Tianyu's face carefully again and again, then nodded and sighed: "Exactly, your son and the husband seem to be carved from the same mold.
What a coincidence."
After a sudden pause, I suddenly realized that there are no such coincidences in the world.
I'm afraid it's not a coincidence, but that the mother and son are related to the husband.
The vendor was thinking about it, and when he looked at Nalan Chu, mother and son, he saw Nalan Chu saying to the two children in a slightly lost state: "I won't eat today, and I won't come back tomorrow.
We are trying not to go out during this period." " Meng Tingning is more than seven years old and is much more sensible than she was five years ago.
After listening to Nalanchu's conversation with the merchant and looking at her expression, she knew that maybe the husband the merchant was talking about was her father.
In the past few years, she had heard her brother talk about what happened between her mother and her father.
He made her feel sorry for her mother, so she did not blame her mother for her decision to leave home.
She even helped Nalanchu at this time and said: " Tianyu, don’t eat now, go back with your mother and sister.”
"But Tianyu hasn't finished eating yet."
Meng Tianyu looked at himself before eating a little bit to get the barbecue.
Meng Tingning said patiently: "Go back first, and my sister will bring back her barbecue for you to eat later."
Meng Tianyu was so happy now that she put down her chopsticks and took her sister's hand to walk home.
Nalanchu paid the bill, sighed, and quickly disappeared into the crowd at the night market.
She had heard that Meng Yue had come to Jiangnan a few days ago, but she thought that since he already had a new person, he would not come here specifically to find her, an old person.
The trip to Jiangnan was probably unintentional.
He didn't like going to the night market.
In the past, he had no choice but to come with her.
Now without her strong request, he probably wouldn't come.
But I didn't expect that he would come.
She didn't expect this.
No matter what, he comes and she leaves.
Since he wanted to deliberately avoid it, he couldn't find it.
In the past five years, she and her children have lived well, and they can live well without him.
As for the children, as long as they didn't want to return to Meng Yue, she couldn't let Meng Yue discover them.
After all, Meng Yue didn't have a child with Lin Qianyi for some reason.
All his children were with her.
If he wanted to know the news, it would be weird if he didn't come to fight with her.
Hao'er and Ting Ning chose her, and she wanted to cover their whereabouts.
But as for Tianyu Nalanchu, she didn’t know what to say.
He had never met Meng Yue, and he didn't know that there was a father in the world who looked very similar to his.
Now that her father is here, what should she say to him?
It's nerve-wracking But no matter how nerve-wracking it is, Tianyu must be given an explanation that he can accept.
After returning home, Nalanchu thought about it for a long time, but could not come up with a satisfactory explanation.
Meng Tianhao was obsessed with chess during this period and often studied in retreat in his room for several days at a time.
After Nalan Chu's son came out of seclusion, he told him about Meng Yue's coming to Jiangnan and asked him to check with her and find a solution.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
However, before a solution could be figured out, Meng Tianyu sneaked out of the house alone.
On this day, the sky was clear and perfect for an outing.
Meng Tianyu carried a small bag, which contained several books, a dagger, a bottle of poison and pepper water.
On this day, he wore a coarse cloth jacket, climbed mountains and waded in rivers, walked for several hours, and came to a farm.
This is a village with a hundred households.
The scenery outside the village is very beautiful, with birds flying everywhere and flowers fragrant.
Strangers are often guests in the village, and people who come to watch the scenery occasionally stop to stay.
However, the only bad thing about the village is that it is poor.
The village is really poor.
Years of oppression by the landlords have made them overworked with farming and work.
How many people died when the disease struck them because they had no money for diagnosis and treatment.
Mom said, when we have a pair of hands that can save people, maybe we should extend a kind aid, but please note that teaching a man to fish is not as good as teaching him to fish.
Therefore, Meng Tianyu often comes here.
He stretched out his little hand, hoping to save many poor people who were suffering from fate. t:
