Back Off, Let Me Come Chapter 1044

 Dong dong dong.

 There was a rhythmic knock on the door outside the courtyard.

Cui Hui thought he was praying for Yuanliang to leave and come back.

Putting on warm clothes and going to open the door, the face of the person outside the door was so startling that her head went cold. If she hadn't been sensible, she would have closed the door long ago. Cui Hui secretly clenched the door bolt, pretending to be confused, and used the candlelight to carefully identify the person who came: "Who are you?"

 Cui Hui called out the true identity of the visitor with uncertainty.

 “Mei Nujun?”

 Mei Meng under the candlelight is more beautiful than usual.

Like red plum blossoms blooming on the branches, it is astonishingly beautiful.

“Mrs. Cui, please don't be surprised if you come to disturb me late at night.” Mei Meng's red lips opened slightly outside the door, and she smiled like a spring mountain. Raising her slender hands, she completely lifted the half-covered veil, revealing her charming eyes that were as affectionate as looking at a dog. Cui Hui was so distracted by the stunning beauty that he couldn't say anything to refuse the blame. .

Cui Hui swallowed.

 Step aside to signal the other person to come in.

“No, I'm just wondering why the lady is here.”

 Cui Hui knew that Mei Meng was a literary scholar, and also knew that ordinary people could not hide their inner thoughts in front of a literary scholar. She restrained her thoughts to avoid leaking content that should not be revealed.

Mei Meng took off his curtain hat and followed Cui Hui inside.

 “For some personal matters.”

Cui Hui and Mei Meng were just acquaintances, and they bumped into each other occasionally. They also tacitly avoided each other because of the relationship between the master who was assisted by Mei Meng and the head of the Cui family. Their relationship is not close enough for Cui Hui to inquire about each other's private affairs, so this topic can only be discussed at this point. Cui Hui started a new topic: "I wonder why the queen came to visit late at night? If it is for Mr. Cui, I have been separated from him for many years."

Mei Meng said: "That's not the case, I'm here for my wife."

Cui Hui looked down at himself, puzzled: "For me?"

 She has no friendship with Mei Meng.

Mei Meng may not be well-intentioned when she comes to visit at this juncture.

Cui Hui only hoped that the people arranged by Qi Yuanliang would be smarter and send the news about Mei Meng's visit as soon as possible, so as not to implicate himself. After all, Mei Meng is a genuine literary scholar. If she had any ill intentions, she would not kill him even if he had ten lives!

"Meeting an old friend in a foreign land is a happy event! I heard that my wife and the Cui family have reconciled, and there has been no news for many years. I never thought that I would meet my wife here. During the day, I heard from my servant that I saw you in Fugu City. I thought he was mistaken. , I didn't expect it to be true.”

Cui Hui didn't believe her nonsense at all.

How can anyone come to visit you late at night?

The relationship between the two of them is so good that Mei Meng can't wait to find out what happened to her after hearing about her whereabouts? Although he didn't believe it in his heart, Cui Hui still exchanged pleasantries with Mei Meng. If we put aside the awkwardness of their identities and time, the conversation was quite pleasant.

Mei Meng is a very talkative person.

 When the two of them talked, there was almost no awkward moment.

Even if Cui Hui reasoned that there was something wrong with Mei Meng in front of him, he always forgot this point unconsciously during the conversation. Overall, Mei Meng is a person who cannot be disliked. Cui Hui himself likes beautiful people, and Mei Meng's looks are very good!

 There is a lot of chat content.

 Including but not limited to the situation of Qi State and the gossip of aristocratic families.

Mei Meng also brought the current situation of Cui Hui's two sons and one daughter.

Ms. Cui intends to find her eldest son a suitable female queen, her second son has excelled in academic examination, and her younger daughter has gained a reputation in the aristocratic family circle. I heard that many matrons of high-ranking families are interested in marrying Ms. Cui, and some have even started to do so. He tried to test the words of the Cui family head, but was declined by the Cui family head. He also took his three children with him to educate them. Speaking of Patriarch Cui, Mei Meng mentioned in casual conversation that the Cui clan always hoped that Patriarch Cui would marry another mistress.

The Cui family has a great business and cannot do without their mistress.

Cui Hui was surprised: "He hasn't gotten married yet?"

Mei Mengdao: "The conditions are not very good."

 The remaining goods in the marriage and love market.

Cui Hui's expression was subtle for a moment.

This was the first time she heard someone say that her ex-husband's conditions were not very good, but the person who said this was Mei Meng, and it was very reasonable.

The ex-husband had obvious advantages. He was in his prime, the leader of the Cui clan, and his power and status had reached the ceiling of his current stage. However, these could only prove that he was a successful man, but they could not prove that he was a suitable husband. His shortcomings in the marriage market are also obvious. He divorced twice and has two sons and one daughter, all of whom are legitimate children. What benefits can there be in marrying a well-matched young girl?

 Instead of marrying him, it is better to keep an eye on his son.

 Those who are well-connected will not be looked down upon, and those who are small will not be able to reach them.

 In addition, there is another important point.

　　The first wife of the Cui family leader was the leader of the Qi State.

Who knows what the ruler of Qi's attitude towards the men he used to be and whether he has any old feelings for him? Will his daughter marrying him really not be an eyesore to the ruler? Wouldn't the king secretly wear small shoes for his own family?

 For these reasons, the head of the Cui family is still single.

Cui Hui nodded and agreed with Mei Meng's words: "That's true. He is the father of three children, two sons and one daughter. The eldest son has started discussing marriage. In a few years, people will call him Aweng and marry another as beautiful as a flower. Madam, it's really not appropriate…”

The Cui family's mistress may not necessarily be the wife of the Cui family head.

 She could also be the wife of Cui's eldest son.

Cui Hui knew that Mei Meng was good at wine, and it happened that there was wine in the kitchen.

　　He poured the wine for her, and the aroma of wine overflowed in the hall.

Mei Meng took a few sniffs and her eyes lit up.

 “Good wine! This is actually the most authentic spiritual wine!”

 “Spirit brew?”

Mei Meng couldn't wait to take a sip. After a while, two light pink haloes appeared, making her look infinitely charming. Cui Hui didn't even drink, but just looking at Mei Meng's face made him drunk.

 “Lingjiang is a specialty of Kang State and is extremely difficult to buy.”

 The spiritual brews available on the black market are basically mixed with water.

 Even Mei Meng has never had a few authentic drinks.

 Other places have long been hyped up and it's hard to find money.

Cui Hui thought of the dozen or so dusty wine jars piled haphazardly in the kitchen, and was skeptical about Mei Meng's statement that it was "extremely difficult to buy."

 After a while, Mei Meng drank two jars of wine alone.

His eyes were filled with hazy mist, and his posture was lazy and casual. Even his hair seemed to be charming. Cui Hui looked at her for a moment, and Mei Meng pulled up the skirt of her clothes that had slipped off her shoulders at some point, her smile showing a bit of coquettishness.

 “What are you looking at, madam?”

"Looking at a beautiful woman under the moonlight is ten times better than in the daytime." Cui Hui swallowed, "In the daytime, the female queen is one of the rarest and most beautiful women in the world. Now that I look at her, even I, a woman, am moved."

Mei Meng was amused by her straightforward compliment. She approached Cui Hui with a smile and exhaled the light smell of wine: "If I had known that Madam was so interesting, I should have made friends with you earlier. Maybe I could become a close friend in my boudoir."

Cui Huidao: "It's not too late."

Mei Meng happily agreed: "What Madam said is true."

 Spiritual brew without water is very easy to get intoxicating, and Mei Meng was reluctant to use literary energy to relieve the drunkenness. After three or four jars, she was already half drunk and her eyes were blurry. Cui Hui gets drunk faster as an ordinary person.

　　He was resting his head on Mei Meng's shoulder with a heavy head.

 The two of them were chatting about something.

Cui Hui even didn't know when he fell asleep. He only knew that when he woke up, Mei Meng put the back of her hand on her forehead, propped her elbow on the table, and closed her eyes, sleeping deeply and peacefully. He rested his head on the other person's calf, causing obvious wrinkles in her skirt.

 The smell of alcohol in the room has become much lighter.

Cui Hui got up and rubbed his temples, which were sore from the hangover.

The sunlight outside the window pours into the interior, leaving a ray of light behind.

When Cui Hui saw this, he wanted to scold Qi Yuanliang for being unreliable. As everyone knows, the prayer has arrived long ago.

 Arrived half an hour before dawn.

Cui Hui didn't wake up, Mei Meng pretended to be asleep, and he couldn't break in.

With a creaking sound, the door opened.

Qishan couldn't bear to look at Cui Hui when he saw Cui Hui who was not fully awake from the hangover. Cui Hui's problem with looking at faces has not changed after so many years. As an ordinary person, he didn't know how much he confided in Mei Meng when he met her.

He gritted his teeth and whispered, "Haha, you're here."

Qi Shan looked past Cui Hui and towards the woman behind her.

He nodded and said hello: "Mr. Mei, long time no see."

Mei Meng tucked her loose hair behind her ears, trying hard to ignore the sight that was so hot in the dark that it could almost burn people through, while maintaining a lazy and casual smile: "Well, I wish you a good morning."

 The smile on Qi Shan's face could hardly be stretched.

He thought about several possibilities, but he didn't expect that Mei Meng would take the initiative to expose his whereabouts and find Cui Hui as soon as he arrived. There was obviously no hostility in her attitude, and she couldn't come up to accuse him.

 “What do you mean, lady? Are you waiting for me?”

Mei Meng: "Otherwise? Mr. Qi killed two of my capable servants without any explanation, but you still don't allow me to come and ask for details?"

 When you open your mouth, you hit him with a rake.

 Just admit that your eyeliners and contacts are all your own.

Qi Shan laughed out loud when he heard this.

There are few people in the world who can be so confident when calling for a thief.

He spread it out directly and said: "Mr. Mei, please don't be joking. Neither you nor your servants are citizens of the Kang Kingdom. Our country is currently at war with the Northern Desert and Gao Kingdom, and the relationship with the northwest countries is also tense. Nu Jun came to visit rashly. , shouldn't we be cautious?”

Mei Meng readily admitted her mistake without blinking an eye: "This is because I didn't think carefully. As a person like Mr. Qi, it is true that I will not kill innocent people by mistake. This misunderstanding has caused you more trouble."

She admitted so quickly that Qishan almost couldn't react.

 Pray for good deeds: "Why did Plum Lady come to Kangguo?"

Mei Meng said: "Sacrifice to the ancestors."

 Pray for good deeds: “…”

 This reason is impeccable.

Mei Meng's ancestral home is in Sibao County, Kang State. Although her family has left, her roots are still in Kang State, so it is reasonable to come back regularly to worship her ancestors. But anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is just Mei Meng's excuse.

Qi Shan sneered: "Can ancestor worshipers deserve such a battle?"

If he hadn't done something small, he would have killed her people?

Small actions that exceed the bottom line will naturally lead to death.

"Why is Qi Jun so hostile?" She looked at Qi Shan with a smile, her voice still hoarse after a hangover, and like a lover whispering, and the end of the sentence still had an intoxicating tone, as if there was a feather gently tickling her. Looking at her heart, seeing that Qi Shan was not hypocritical, Mei Meng could only say seriously, "To be honest, I came out to travel and look for opportunities to break through. As beautiful as I am, I am just flesh stained with blood. What kind of jackals, tigers and leopards can smell it?" Don't want to take a bite? Isn't it normal to go out with more people around you to protect yourself?”

Although this statement may seem narcissistic, it is also true. A woman in this world, especially a stunning woman, will indeed become a trophy to be chased if she does not have the ability to protect herself.

Qi Shan asked: "What is the opportunity for a breakthrough?"

Mei Meng stretched out, revealing the graceful arc of her waist, her shoulders looming, and her gaze in the dark became even more intense. She smiled inwardly and said casually: "This is an opportunity for the perfection of the scribe's way. A person like Qijun should also know how precious it is."

 Simply put, I just go out and look for opportunities.

When passing by my hometown, I planned to pay homage to my ancestors' graves.

She is a weak woman who has been away from her homeland for so many years. Of course she will send someone to inquire about the situation in her homeland when she comes back. It is all just to protect herself. As an old friend, Qi Shan is not even allowed to do this?

ˆQishan: “Is that just that?”

Mei Meng covered her lips with a smile: "What else? Could it be that Mr. Qi suspects that I have evil intentions and wants to seek for Kang's country? Not to mention that there is no border between Qi and Kang's country, and there is no conflict between the two countries. Even if there was, I would be in danger alone. What good can it do?”

 All actions have a purpose.

Although it was wrong for Mei Meng to appear in Kangguo in a private capacity, she did not take any measures that were detrimental to Kangguo. All her actions were just to break through opportunities, and they were allowed anywhere. Two domestic servants crossed the line and were killed. Mei Meng was at fault first, and the two sides were cleared. If Qi Shan wants to do anything to her in his official capacity as Kang Guo, it will only provoke a war between the two countries.

 Pray for good: “It's really no good.”

 The evidence is not available, and there is really nothing that can be done to the other party.

Qi Shan has no intention of breaking out now.

On the contrary, he was very interested in the breakthrough opportunity mentioned by Mei Meng.

 Calculating the time with her fingers, Mei Meng has been practicing for at least ten years. Looking back, she started practicing at a very young age. Although he started so late, he was able to reach the threshold of perfection in the way of scribes in ten years. He is considered to be the best among literati.

 Qishan took the initiative to soften his attitude.

Mei Meng naturally wants to give up when things get better.

  Sometimes, the most dangerous places are the safest.

 It is wise to take the initiative to expose yourself.

If Mei Meng had always been secretive and Qi Yuan had a ruthless conscience, he would definitely fish in troubled waters and kill him on the spot if he was caught. Afterwards, when he was exposed and questioned by Qi Guo, he could deduce all the blame with just "I don't know".

A high-ranking official from another country who entered the country concealing his identity was killed by mistake and died in vain. How could Qi Guo prove that Qi Shan knew her identity when he killed her? It cannot be proven, and naturally it cannot be convicted.

Hinding oneself to the sky is an unintentional mistake in praying for good.

 The State of Qi could only suffer the disadvantage of being dumb.

 “When I meet an old friend in a foreign country, can you have a drink with me?”

Authentic spirit brewing is not always available.

Mei Meng can also be regarded as a benefactor.

 When a benefactor invites you, there is no reason to refuse.

Cui Hui got up and went to a nearby restaurant to order food and drinks.

 When they came back, Qishan and Mei Meng had a good conversation, and the content was all related to the cultivation of literary scholars, and occasionally mixed with many obscure and difficult spiritual methods. This gave Cui Hui a sense of separation - as if the two corpses were just her imagination.

 “Everyone has his own agenda.”

 Four words are enough to describe the two of them at this time.

Qishan didn't get any benefits from Mei Meng. After sitting for a while, she stood up and left, secretly sending someone to keep an eye on her.

 “General Lu?”

 The carriage drove for a while without seeing Lu Jue's appearance.

Qi Shan shouted twice more: "General Lu?"

 Looking around, no trace of Lu Jue's aura was found.

 He thought of something and the corner of his mouth twitched.

 “It's so disappointing!”

 I don't know why, but every time I write about Lu Jue and Mei Meng, I always feel like I'm driving.
