Chapter 340: Someone from the Palace
Before Wen Wan came to this world, she was also a hard-working slave in the workplace.
In the workplace, if the previous leader leaves all his confidants in the original department after changing positions, the new leader will be effectively sidelined.
Looking at the Fengcheng garrison, after He Qing returned to Beijing to report on his work, the Fengcheng garrison was still composed entirely of his confidants.
I'm afraid the generals in this yard are more organized than when they arrive during morning exercise.
Several generals had short tempers and became extremely anxious when they heard that He Qing was in critical condition.
"Damn it! If you ask me, the Mobei people actually dared to play dirty tricks. We should just lead our troops and attack them, and let them shed a river of blood!"
"You think I don't want to? But mobilizing troops without authorization is a serious crime of treason. We'll die if we die, but my mother and children are still alive. Should they all die with us?"
"If you ask me, you're the only ones afraid of death. I'm all alone, so I'll go back and mobilize the troops to avenge the general!"
The man who spoke had not taken two steps when he was pinned to the ground by several others.
"Alright, stop making things worse. You said you would mobilize troops? The general's orders are still in General Zhou's hands!"
"General Zhou? Bah! In this life, I only recognize General He!"
"Keep your voice down, walls have ears, this is in the governor's mansion!"
Several people lowered their voices and pulled the man aside to chat.
Wen Wan listened to the entire farce calmly, and her guess was confirmed by what these people said.
The newly appointed Fengcheng defender was indeed sidelined.
However, people's hearts are fickle, and most of these generals have families to support. Even if they feel indignant for He Qing for a while and threaten to avenge him.
But over time, these people will definitely find a way to find a way out for themselves.
Thinking of this, Wen Wan frowned.
She raised her eyes and looked at everyone's faces.
Who will take over the power built up by He Qing?
"Where is General He? Oh, hurry up and take me to see him. The Empress fainted several times when she heard that the General was injured."
At the end of the corridor, a large group of people appeared.
Leading the way was the returning Prefect Ma, who led the way himself, accompanied by the dusty eunuchs and a team of Phoenix Guards, into the courtyard.
Walking beside the eunuch was a gentle acquaintance.
After two years, Wen Wan was a little overwhelmed when she saw Meng Jin again.
Compared with two years ago, Meng Jin seems to have become more calm and looks very good. It seems that although his marriage is not going well, his career is going very smoothly.
Meng Jin didn't expect to see Wen Wan here. He stumbled and fortunately, the prefect Ma supported him.
"Master Meng, be careful."
Meng Jin came back to his senses, calmed down his expression, and bowed to thank Governor Ma.
In view of the unpleasant things that had happened between the two of them, Wen Wan felt that the best way to deal with this situation was to pretend not to know each other when they met.
Unfortunately, Meng Jin doesn’t seem to think so.
He actually walked straight up to Wen Wan and said, "It's really you!"
He actually looked very happy.
Wen Wan twitched the corners of her mouth, pursed her lips, said nothing, and ignored him.
When the people around saw this scene, they were confused for a moment, but when they saw Wen Wan's eyes, they became more curious.
Meng Jin was not annoyed by the cold reception he showed his enthusiasm for, but instead he straightened his back, turned around and bowed to Governor Ma.
"Ma Taishou, this... young lady is from my hometown. Although I don't know why she appeared here, I hope that Ma Taishou will take care of her for my sake."
Governor Ma looked bewildered. He nodded stiffly and said, "Okay."
Wen Wan: “???”
No, brother, what does she have to do with you? Is it necessary for you to ask someone for help?
Wen Wan didn't understand what Meng Jin meant at first, until she saw the smug look on Meng Jin's face, she suddenly realized it.
She understood that Meng Jin had been doing well in recent years, so he felt confident in front of her. He felt proud and could act smart in front of her?
Meng Jin's idea is a common problem among almost all Phoenix men who have climbed up from the bottom.
Once you become successful, you will make those who used to look down on you look at you with new eyes.
Wen Wan had previously chosen Chen Yu, who came from a noble family, and "abandoned" him, a poor student from a humble background. Now that the situation has changed, he must find a sense of existence in front of her.
He knew that she was someone related to Shen Yu, but he still called her "girl". Fortunately, Shen Yu was not here, otherwise this guy would have received a few more punches in the face.
"Oh," Wen Wan sneered and said in a calm tone, "Don't worry about it, Lord Meng. My general will take care of it for me."
Her general?
These words made everyone around look surprised.
In this courtyard, the only person who can be called general is He Qing in the house.
Could this be General He’s concubine?
Who in the court doesn't know about the dispute between Meng Jin and He Qing?
At first, Princess Jiarou liked Meng Jin, and everyone in the capital knew about it. But later, the emperor arranged for Princess Jiarou to marry He Qing, breaking up this well-known couple.
Meng Jin and He Qing are love rivals who are extremely jealous of each other when they meet and have never gotten along well.
And now, Meng Jin actually molested General He’s concubine in public?
Seeing that everyone's imaginations were getting more and more out of control, Wen Wan held her forehead weakly and said lightly: "Don't get me wrong, my general is Shen Yu, General Shen, and I have nothing to do with General He."
Everyone suddenly realized that it was General Shen’s concubine.
Lord Meng and General He are rivals in love, and he is also entangled with General Shen’s concubine. And General Shen’s concubine is involved with General He?
Everyone was confused and couldn't figure out the relationship between them. They could only sigh silently in their hearts.
Your circle is so chaotic!
When He Miao opened the door, she saw a group of people with almost petrified expressions and confused eyes that seemed to be spinning in circles.
Noticing that everyone's eyes were on Wen Wan, He Miao curled her lips and asked:
"What have you done again? I tell you, my brother is seriously ill right now, you'd better behave yourself, otherwise even if Brother Yu is here, I won't let you go!"
When everyone heard this, their expressions became even more distorted.
It turns out that the He family's legitimate daughter and this concubine are also love rivals?
It’s such a mess, such a mess!
However, He Miao's words reminded the people who had just arrived.
The eunuch screamed again and walked into the house with an anxious expression.
"General He, I, under the order of the Empress, have come to see you with the imperial physician! You must hold on! I have been rushing all the way here, extremely anxious..."
The eunuch led a large group of people into the house, and the noise gradually died down.
The eunuch who kept saying he was extremely anxious was clearly watching the lively scene between Meng Jin and Wen Wan just now.
Wen Wan sneered at these pretentious eunuchs, but suddenly stared at Meng Jin's back in surprise.
No! No!
Given the conflict between Meng Jin and He Qing, why did he follow the eunuch to Fengcheng?
