The Village Doctress Chapter 514: Father and Son
Meng Shoufu slowly turned around when he heard his son's voice.
He took a fixed look at his handsome and elegant son, and was not in a hurry to ask him what he wanted to know.
"You were still injured a few days ago, are you fully recovered now?" Meng Shoufu didn't wait for Meng Bufan to answer, and frowned: "Did you care too much for your father these years? You like to go outside and fight?"
Meng Bufan shook his head and smiled lightly when he heard the words, and then raised the corners of his lips and said, "Father, if you care about your son, just say it directly, don't you be so obscene?"
Meng Shoufu was exposed by his own son, so he glared at him, then pointed to the chair beside him and said, "Sit."
When Meng Bufan sat down, he took his seat.
"Your mother is worried about you. A few days ago you were seriously injured and you were poisoned, but my father still kept it from her. If she found out, she would have to worry about you again." Meng Shoufu shook his head subconsciously thinking about Meng Bufan's action for Lin Fufu today.
This is disapproving of Meng Bufan's approach, but he didn't want to use harsh tone and serious words for this only son, so he used Mrs. Meng as an example.
Meng Bufan's eyes darkened, as expected, no matter how old he was, his father always kept a close eye on his actions and whereabouts.
After thinking for a while, Meng Bufan said lightly: "Father, don't worry, the son knows what he will do."
The implication is that you, old man, don't worry about it.
Meng Shoufu was not angry when he heard the words, let alone surprised, he sighed deeply, looked at his elegant and handsome son and said: "I know your thoughts as a father, but I just want to thank you and the princess for saving my life." Well, that's all, but you also need to know that you have already saved her life, and the person who murdered her must not be a simple character, so why do you need to involve yourself?"
After all, Meng Shoufu still disapproved of his son getting involved in Lin Gospel's troublesome affairs.
After Meng Bufan heard the words, he just stared at the tea in his hand for a long while. His handsome face was reflected in the tea, but his eyes sparkled like thousands of broken stars.
"Father, if Princess Jiahe hadn't saved your son, you wouldn't even have a spirit card holder in a hundred years, and now your son is just repaying his favor. I'm afraid you'll make a show of yourself and make your son an eyesore Very good."
"You bastard! How can you run on your father like this?" Meng Shoufu blushed when his son said it, and couldn't help but scolded him.
This is really annoying.
Meng Bufan also knew, but he was not worried. He laughed, stood up and saluted Meng Shoufu, "Father, calm down!"
Meng Shoufu looked at the playful smiling face that suddenly changed his face, no matter how angry he was, it disappeared unknowingly.
On the contrary, he said earnestly: "As a father, you are the only son. In your generation, although you are not the elder, you are the only male in the eldest family. Your mother and I only have you as a child. As a father, I don't expect you to make great achievements in the future, I only hope that you can protect yourself and the Meng family and pass it on safely."
Of course Meng Bufan knows his father's wish, but he sees farther than Meng Shoufu.
Even if you want to keep yourself safe and the Meng family passed on smoothly, that is not an easy task.
Especially when Wei's generations are going downhill.
What is even more worrying is that the Great Wei Dynasty is not only going downhill, even if this generation produces a very powerful Princess Princess, if the Great Wei does not pave the way for the next one, and does not find the right one, it will be able to control the overall situation in the future. people, then it will be nothing but troubled times.
Troubled times...
How many aristocratic families can survive and pass on smoothly?
Even if their Meng family has passed through thousands of years of inheritance, didn't they almost fall apart in several major troubled times?
"Father, the son you mentioned knows it all, but the son thinks that judging from the current situation, it is not the best policy at all." A flicker of light.
He knows his son himself, he doesn't need to be humble, his son is a dragon among men!
So, in order to protect his son these years, he let him stay away from court, read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles.
But hearing his words now, Meng Shoufu's heart skipped a beat.
"Meng Bufan!" He sternly called his name, "Are you trying to disobey my father's arrangement for you?"
Meng Bufan gave his father a sideways look with a cold gaze, the meaning was obvious.
Meng Shoufu gasped heavily, stared at his son's elegant and handsome face and asked, "Are you... going to be an official now?"
Meng Bufan's eyes flashed, he shook his head lightly, but his tone was inconceivable, "Father, I plan to go to next year, this year is already too late."
Isn't that the same as saying nothing?
Meng Shoufu coughed violently.
Meng Bufan bowed his head and was drinking tea.
He knew that his father couldn't accept his decision right away. If it wasn't for the princess's risky move, he wouldn't have planned to become an official so early, but who said that the plan couldn't keep up with the changes?
Meng Bufan's mind flashed back that day in the dim light of the back mountain of the Daxiangguo Temple, that little face of Yichen Yixi and those pair of bright and amazing almond eyes...
"Meng Bufan, you... You gave me a reason to be a father, why did you suddenly do this?" Meng Shoufu finally calmed down the anger in his heart, but looking at his calm son, his chest unconsciously Then there were violent ups and downs, "Don't you know that ever since my father and Princess Ruoshui parted ways, she has constrained the Meng family everywhere in private?"
Meng Bufan raised his head, his eyes were dark and cold.
"Father, my son has already found out that I was ambushed that day because of King Ning." Meng Bufan suddenly said something shocking, "Princess Ruoshui just wanted to balance the power of the court. Those actions did not hurt the lives of the Meng family, and she did not intend to get rid of her son, but King Ning wanted to abolish the Meng family, so father, what do you think?"
Meng Shoufu was stunned.
He really didn't expect that the only son was tricked by King Ning last time!
What exactly does King Ning want to do?
"Could it be possible that the Meng family is trying to endure this with all the grown-ups?" Meng Bufan sneered, "Father, my son doesn't think you are such a bully."
Meng Bufan's words had the meaning of aggression, but Meng Shoufu was angry because he was still immersed in his son being plotted by King Ning.
"Ning Wang, that old man! My Meng family is not in the limelight everywhere, and it's still in his eyes? Even the only son of the eldest son of my Meng family dares to touch, why does he still want to usurp the throne?" Thinking of Ning The old man Wang was still paralyzed, and he sneered sarcastically, "It's a pity that he is just a useless man, he doesn't even have a son, what reason does he have to usurp the throne?"
