Chapter 1,114 Meng Yunzheng’s Request

All the civil and military officials in the main hall stood with their hands clasped with serious expressions. After hearing this, they all focused their attention on Meng Yunzheng.

Even under the gaze of so many people, Meng Yuncheng still looked very calm.

His expression did not change, he thanked him first, and then said, "Your Majesty, the common people have nothing to ask for. They just want to restore their place of origin, return to their hometown, and reunite with their father."

As soon as he said this, everyone present was stunned.

That's it, that's it? ?

You have finally made such a great contribution, and instead of asking for an official position, you don't even want any silver reward. Are you stupid?

The emperor was also very surprised, "Meng Yunzheng, have you thought it through?"

"Yes, Cao Min has carefully considered it. In recent years, due to Gongqiu's surveillance, my father has been unable to return to his hometown as he wished, appear in front of others, and cannot meet Cao Min, and many years have been wasted in vain. It is really my father and Cao Min. The biggest regret is that now that the family feud has been resolved and the common people have long since grown up, it is time for me to repay my father’s kindness in giving birth to me.”

The emperor frowned, "I remember you said that your father used to run an escort agency. Is it possible that you want to go back and inherit the family business and become the head escort?"

As soon as these words came out, low voices of discussion could not help but come from the hall.

As a bodyguard? Is he crazy?

This Meng Yuncheng seemed to be a talented person, and he was brave and resourceful. Why couldn't he think of doing a life-saving job?

Among the officials, I thought he was good-looking and good-looking, so I was tempted to recruit him as my son-in-law. As soon as I heard his plan, I gave up the idea instantly.

But it is a pity that talents like him are missed and buried in the world, such as Qi Chan.

He immediately walked out of the ranks of officials and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, I heard that Mr. Meng was very intelligent when he was young. If Gongqiu hadn't killed his mother, Mr. Meng would probably be a mediocre person now with his talent and learning. Your Majesty has always loved Talent is cherished, and it is better to teach and test on the spot. If Mr. Meng is knowledgeable and a pillar of talent, then it would be a pity to bury him when he goes back like this."

The emperor was thoughtful, and Meng Yunzheng felt helpless.

Qi Chan still had a good impression of Meng Yunzheng. When he was originally exiled in the southwest, he was a little disgusted because Gongqiu placed people next to the governor. He also guessed that he might have an agenda and paid more attention to him after returning to Beijing.

Therefore, Qi Chan also helped with this matter in Gongqiu.

He appreciated Meng Yunzheng's opinion. He felt that this man could endure what ordinary people could not endure and had a very tough mind. He would definitely be very successful in his future work. He did not want to see him really go back to be a bodyguard.

However, as soon as Qi Chan finished speaking and the emperor had not responded, the fifth prince came out of the crowd.

He cupped his hands and said, "Father, everyone has their own ambitions. Mr. Meng has been walking on thin ice around Gongqiu for many years, and his life has not been easy. Now that the dust has settled, it is human nature for him to want to go back and enjoy his family. He has no intention of pursuing an official career, so father is not as good as him. It fulfilled him.”

The fifth prince used to be inconspicuous, and his presence was not strong.

This time he was presiding over Gong Qiu's case, which allowed many people to see his skills, and the weight of his words was already very important.

But no one expected that he would be the one who approved Meng Yunzheng's departure from the capital.

Could it be that the fifth prince didn't like Meng Yunzheng?

Does he belong to the group that looks down on Meng Yunzheng and thinks he is selfish?

The emperor hesitated and asked again after a moment, "Meng Yuncheng, have you really decided?"
