After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight - Chapter 642 A battle of wits and courage

Meng Bo, who was eavesdropping outside the house, turned his head and was shocked to see four heads standing in a row behind him!

"Oh my goodness!"

He covered his heart and looked at the four people with a pale face.

People scare people, scare people to death!

Ji Li pointed inside and said, "Just keep watching. Don't worry about us. We are free to do whatever we want."

Meng Bo: “…”

In order to better watch someone making a fool of themselves, Yu Zichuan did not hesitate to move his noble butt and changed the place where he watched the melon from the roof to the corridor.

Besides him, there was Shangguan Ling who was enjoying himself to death, and Qingshuang who came because of the smell of the melon.

Lu Yuan once took the exam for Xun Yu and got the top score. Xun Yu's title of top scorer was actually his honor.

This is a past event he doesn't want to talk about.

He disdains to clear his own name, nor does he disdain to expose his scars in front of others, and he doesn't care what others think of him.

It doesn't matter if the means are cruel or if the person is uneducated or unskilled.

But today, in order to stay in the Meng family, he actually cleared his name?

Shangguan Ling was dumbfounded: "I've never seen such a thing before..."

Mr. Meng glanced at Lu Yuan and said, "Nonsense. I have never heard of a top scholar in the imperial court. I have heard that Grand Commander Lu is illiterate and unlearned."

The handsome young man smiled and said to Mr. Meng: "Old man, whether you have the talent of the top scholar or not, won't we know it after taking a test?"

Mr. Meng glared at his grandson who was not very smart and said, "Stop giving me bad advice."

The handsome young man said seriously, "This is definitely not a bad idea. If it is, then you just don't listen to it, old man."

The four people outside the door were extremely curious and all wanted to know what kind of ideas he could come up with.

Shangguan Ling patted Meng Bo on the shoulder: "Is this kid okay?"

Shangguan Ling wondered, "Why do I feel like the Grand Commander is being tricked?"

Yu Zichuan: "I can tell you didn't hold your fart well."

Qingshuang: “Yeah.”

All five of them pricked up their ears.

He leaned close to Mr. Meng's ear and whispered something.

There was a thoughtful look in Mr. Meng's eyes.

The handsome young man smiled and said, "What do you think? Isn't my idea good?"

It was a rare occasion that Mr. Meng didn't scold him.

Mr. Meng kicked him out.

Afterwards, Mr. Meng "invited" Lu Yuan out as well.

However, he was not expelled from the Meng family. Instead, he was arranged to live in a courtyard.

Of course, it is far away from Meng Qianqian's courtyard.

Lu Yuan did not answer, but said: "Go find him."

Shangguan Ling asked: "What?"

Lu Yuan said: "You will know when you go there."

"Yes."

Lu Yuan said: "Meng Lang."

"It really is."

Outside the yard, the other party called himself Meng Xuan, and the commander-in-chief said that there would be a price to pay for lying.

Shangguan Ling went there with great curiosity about Meng Lang.

Meng Lang seemed to have expected him to come. He moved a rattan chair and lay down in the yard, with one hand on the back of his head and the other hand holding a sweet and delicious peach, which he ate with relish.

It was not an elegant move, but when he did it, it seemed free and easy, even with a hint of detachment and unruliness.

A sentence suddenly flashed through Shangguan Ling’s mind - a young man in fine clothes and riding a vigorous horse.

"coming."

Shangguan Ling's mouth twitched: "Why do you, a little brat, put on airs of authority?"

Meng Lang laughed and said, "You have the authority of an official, but do you dare to act arrogantly?"

Shangguan Ling: ...Why is this kid so naughty?

Shangguan Ling suppressed his anger and said to Meng Lang: "The Grand Commander asked me to come find you."

Shangguan Ling said: "He didn't say anything, he just asked me to come find you."

Meng Lang smiled and thought for a while, then said to Shangguan Ling: "I think I understand what he asked you to do."

After saying that, he stretched out his hand towards Shangguan Ling.

Shangguan Ling asked curiously, "What for?"

Shangguan Ling was shocked: "You are such a black-hearted boy!"

Meng Lang spread his hands: "You want to return empty-handed, or you want to spend money and save trouble, it's up to you."

Shangguan Ling's mouth twitched.

An increasingly rebellious Yu Zichuan was already a headache, but I didn’t expect that the Meng family was even worse.

One hundred taels is one hundred taels.

It's better than being scolded later.

Shangguan Ling took out the silver note.

Meng Lang handed him a letter: "Take it."

Shangguan Ling asked hesitantly.

Meng Lang dusted off the banknotes and said, "Go ahead. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

Shangguan Ling took the letter back to Lu Yuan's house with doubts.

When he unfolded the letter, he was dumbfounded.

Shangguan Ling was confused.

So he spent a hundred taels, and ended up getting an IOU?

What's even more outrageous is that the IOU clearly stated that the first-rank commander-in-chief of the imperial court owed Meng Lang of Youzhou three requests.

He was anxious: "No, Grand Commander, this guy is asking for a higher price!"

However, when he looked at the Grand Commander's expression, he did not see any surprise or dissatisfaction on the other's face.

So, the Grand Commander really agreed to the brat's unreasonable deal?

when?!

Lu Yuan said calmly: "Serve the pen and ink."

"Does this Governor need your approval to do anything?"

"That's of course not necessary!"

Shangguan Ling learned all the servility from the young lady and took out the four treasures of the study and ink.

Lu Yuan looked at the handwriting on the document, took the brush and ink with an expressionless face, and signed the IOU.

Meng Lang dusted off the IOU in his hand and raised his eyebrows, saying, "A first-rank commander-in-chief and the eldest grandson of the Emperor of Daliang, nothing more than that."
