I’m the Hero, His Brother, Wear It Quickly

Yuan Jia held a ceremony for Meng Qi to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestry. Of course, it could not really be held in Zhenbei Gongfu. He just invited the guests to be a witness in Zhenbei Gongfu and announced that Meng Qi would no longer be Zhenbei Gongfu. people from the government.

Even because Yuan Jia was still in the period of filial piety, the banquet was not even held.

It's just that the Zhenbei Gongfu let the adopted son recognize his ancestors and return to the clan during the period of filial piety, and they couldn't wait for the period of filial piety to come out.

However, the invitations were widely issued to invite guests, and the ceremony of recognizing the ancestors and returning to the clan was held for Meng Qi, all in the name of the old lady.

When the former Duke of Zhenbei passed away, Mrs. Yan as a wife needed to be mourned, and as a son, Yuan Jia needed to observe filial piety, but as a mother, the old lady had no such restrictions, and no one could say whether these things were done in her name.

Meng Qi had to go back to the ancestral home of his ancestors to recognize his ancestors. The ceremony was quite complicated. In Zhenbei Gongfu, it was just a simple certification and announcement.

Because of the face of the Zhenbei Gongfu, there were not a few guests who came to participate, and even the current emperor sent a ten-year-old eldest prince to participate on his behalf.

The emperor did not dare not to send a representative, worried that Meng Yuanjia would take this opportunity to make friends with the courtiers, but he did not dare to come in person, for fear that Meng Yuanjia would suddenly be unfavorable to him, so he sent his ten-year-old eldest prince. Well, anyway, he has three princes in total.

The eldest prince is young but very precocious, and he looks very royal with a straight face, but when facing Yuan Jia, when he thinks of his father's advice to him before leaving the palace, he can't help but feel a little sullen.

Listening to what the father said, it seems that the new Duke of Zhenbei can't afford to offend him!

When the eldest prince was struggling with how to face Yuan Jia, in fact Yuan Jia didn't put his mind on him at all.

Now he is not even willing to give the emperor's face, let alone the emperor's ten-year-old son. Now, the relationship between Zhenbei Gongfu and the emperor can be said to be a superficial monarch and minister, but in fact it is an incompatible relationship.

The emperor wanted to destroy the Zhenbei Gongfu, Yuan Jia couldn't be as loyal to the emperor as the original owner's father in order to protect himself. Giving up the military power in his hand was not a way to protect himself, but to throw away the only weapon and capture him without a hand, and entrust his life to the kindness of the enemy. On, it's too unreliable.

Better give it a go!

Yuan Jia only gave the eldest prince a symbolic salute. After making the arrangement of the eldest prince clearly, he sat quietly aside with a cup of tea. The one who really came out to entertain the guests was the old lady.

As the protagonists, Meng Xi and the Lin family were long in coming. Yuan Jia looked at Meng Xi with some displeasure and asked, "Why are you here now?"

After being warned by the big housekeeper, Meng Xian felt a little fear subconsciously in Yuan Jia's heart now, and hurriedly explained: "Second brother, I accidentally delayed the time, all because..."

Yuan Jia interrupted his explanation: "Okay, no need to explain, just get ready and start!"

Yuan Jia looked at the Lin family who were shrunk behind Meng Xian. Lin's current husband did not dare to come. Only the Lin family, who Yuan Jia had said that they must come, and the children born after Lin's remarriage were the only ones who came. .

After Lin's remarriage, she gave birth to three sons and one daughter. It is not uncommon to have more sons. Meng Xi, the son born to her ex-husband before her remarriage, has no weight in her heart.

However, the three sons and one daughter born by Lin's later stood with Meng Qi, and the difference was very big. They didn't look like the children of a mother at all. These four people more inherited their father's features.

Yuan Jia glanced at Lin Shi and the other five people, but said nothing. Comparing with Lin Shi really seemed like Zhenbei Gongfu was bullying others.

He reached out and ordered a maid and asked her to entertain Lin and others.

The appearance of Meng Qi, Lin Shi and others has attracted the attention of many people. These people who have dealt with Zhenbei Gongfu a lot have seen Meng Xi before. I didn't expect to see him again this time. However, from the third young master of Zhenbei Gongfu, he became a commoner whose father died and his mother remarried.

Feeling the strange gazes from everyone, many of whom were acquaintances, Meng Qi only felt that his face was so dry that he could not wait to find a crack to burrow in.

＜＜＜＜＜＜

Yan Shi also quietly walked out of the backyard to take a look at the situation here.

Yan Shi saw Meng Xie at first sight, and she couldn't help but red eyes when she thought that her youngest son, whom she had loved for many years, was leaving her now.

She looked away and saw the unremarkable middle-aged woman beside Meng Xian, thinking that Yuan Jia and her would invite Meng Xing's biological mother and half-brothers to come with her today, and guessed that this woman was Meng Xian. Ji's biological mother, Lin Shi.

Lin's family looks much older than Yan's because of his hard work, and he doesn't seem to be a senior. In fact, Lin's age is a few years younger than Yan's.

Yan shi retracted his gaze, did not want to look anymore, turned around and went back to the backyard.

The old lady stepped forward with a cane and said to the guests, "Everyone knows the reason for inviting everyone here today."

The old lady looked at Meng Xi and sighed, "Meng Xi's father personally defended my son, he was loyal, brave, benevolent, and righteous. In order to save my son, his mother died, and his mother remarried, leaving him alone as a baby boy without any support. He was adopted and raised as his own son for many years, but he couldn't really rob someone else's son. Today, I would like to ask everyone to be a witness..."

Meng Xian gritted his teeth secretly. From today, he really broke away from the Zhenbei Gongfu. Without the identity of the third young master of Zhenbei Gongfu, how many people in the capital looked down on him?

Lin Shi didn't dare to look up. Whether it was to leave her son alone after remarrying, or to smear Zhenbei Gongfu for robbing her son, these words were said frankly by the old lady. look up?

Yuan Jia stood aside and listened to the old lady's announcement, and quietly gave the old lady a compliment in her heart.

Although he knew that the old lady didn't want to take revenge on Meng Qi, she just wanted to show in front of everyone that the Zhenbei Gongfu had never been sorry to Meng Qi in these years, and today it's not that their Zhenbei Gongfu wants to drive people away, but Zhenger The Eight Classics let Meng Qi recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestry. But the old lady's remarks still hit Lin Shi and Meng Xie's mother and son's heartache.

After the old lady finished speaking, she looked at Meng Xi and said to him, "Ji'er, come here."

Meng Qi took a deep breath, walked over, and called out in a low voice, "Old Madam."

Seeing that he was not called 'grandmother', the old lady didn't care, she reached out and took a brocade box from the maid's hand and handed it to Meng Xi, saying, "Your father lost both his parents and became an orphan, so he took the initiative to sell his body to my Zhenbei Gongfu. , but we have never treated your father as a slave, this is his contract of betrayal, and it will be handed over to you, when you sacrifice it to your father, burn it."

Meng Xian's face turned pale in an instant. Perhaps to the unrelated people, the old lady's move was righteous, and she did not treat Meng Shisan as a servant, but in Meng Xing's view, the old lady's move was an announcement to everyone that he was Meng Xian. The son of a slave!

This is even lower than the identity of the son of the guard!

Meng Qi's hands in his sleeves were tightly clenched into fists, and his rounded nails pinched the marks of eight crescents on his palms.

Suppressing the shame and anger in his heart, Meng Xi still stretched out his hand to take the brocade box from the old lady's hand.

After attending the banquet at Zhenbei Gongfu, it was Yuan Jia who personally took Meng Qi to the tomb of his biological father Meng Shisan to worship, and then recognized his ancestors and returned to the clan.

Although Meng Shisan is an orphan, he is not an orphan with unknown background. He was brought to the capital by his parents when he was young. Fortunately, both Meng Shisan's parents died unexpectedly, leaving only the young and ignorant Meng Shisan as a child.

The clansmen in the hometown have a long relationship with Meng Shisan’s parents, and they are about to give out five clothes. After Meng Shisan’s parents died, no one from the old family came. He lived on the streets, and later sold himself into Zhenbei Gongfu.

In Meng Xian's generation, he and the clansmen from Meng Shisan's hometown have already gone out of five clothes, but tracing the origins there is still Meng Xing's ancestral home.

Yuanjia sent some of his own personal guards to take Meng Xie back to his ancestral home, and asked his clan to record his name on the genealogy and officially recognize his ancestors.

After a series of ceremonies, when Meng Qi returned to the capital, it was all over the New Year.

This year, the wind in the capital has changed a long time ago, and no one is talking about Meng Xie, the fake third young master of Zhenbei Gongfu. Meng Xie, who had already made it and came back to bear the pressure of public opinion, was still a little disappointed.

A person as pretentious as him can't stand being ridiculed by others, let alone being ignored by others.

When he left, he left as the central figure of the people in the capital, but when he came back, he was silent, just like an ordinary civilian who came to the capital, unobtrusive.

＜＜＜＜＜＜

Yenka came home from get off work early this morning from the Ministry of War.

He now has filial piety, but the emperor deliberately allowed him to serve in the court in order to appease him, but he did not have to drink and have fun with his colleagues, and he could go home on time to rest after work.

Over the past year, Yuan Jia has behaved very calmly, and he doesn't seem to have any disagreements.

It's just that whenever the emperor proposed to let the 200,000 town north army stationed outside the capital go north, Yuan Jia would find an excuse to shirk.

The 200,000 Zhenbei Army was like a sharp sword hanging over the emperor's head, making him sleepless.

The emperor issued an imperial decree to send people to urgently summon the army kings from all over the country to **** them. However, until now, no soldiers or soldiers have entered the capital. The emperor was so anxious that more than a dozen imperial decrees were issued in a row, but each imperial decree was like a rock sinking into the sea, the angel who announced the decree. No life, no death, no corpse.

No matter how stupid the emperor was, he knew that someone had done something to the people he sent out to ask for help, and his imperial decree was never issued outside the capital.

And this person who did it, the emperor thought it was Yuan Jia without even thinking about it.

However, Yuanjia behaved very honestly and calmly. The emperor could not get the slightest clue about him at all. He wanted to investigate the evidence of Yuanjia's murder of the angel, but he could not find any evidence pointing to the Zhenbei Gongfu.

As time went on, the emperor found that there seemed to be more and more courtiers sitting on the sidelines of the courtroom.

At the beginning, there were still many courtiers who would impeach the supporters of the Zhenbei Gongfu under his advice, but after many failed impeachments, there were fewer and fewer courtiers willing to listen to the emperor's words and continue to impeach the Zhenbei Gongfu.

This uncontrollable feeling made the emperor panic. He could feel the dark tide surging in the court, but he didn't know how to solve it.

He wanted to ask for help from his important officials, but the emperor was afraid that these important officials would also be bought by Meng Yuanjia, or he wanted to be neutral. I received news that they led an army of 200,000 to force the palace.

The emperor could clearly feel that due to the delay in the arrival of King Qin's army, his prestige in the court was getting weaker and weaker. On the contrary, Meng Yuanjia's voice was getting heavier and heavier. Few would argue against him.

All kinds of things made the emperor seem to see the terrible scene of turning into a clay puppet in the future, or simply being decapitated by Meng Yuanjia.

The emperor was not willing to accept his fate, and he secretly sent a few confidant eunuchs to sneak out of the city with his edict...

Yuan Jia, who was returning from get off work, had just entered the study when he saw a secret letter on the desk, opened it and read the content, a smile appeared on the corners of his lips: "This emperor is still not giving up, let a few eunuchs hide in the dung truck and go out of the city. , thanks to him for coming up with it!"
