Holding back his laughter, Wang Jian picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of pork to put into his mouth.
Looking at his actions, the bitter smile on Ying Zheng's face grew wider. Then, he looked at the plate of leaves in front of him. The contrast was too strong…
"You guys eat first. I'm not hungry yet. Let's see what those brats wrote before eating.”Taking the stack of letters from Ying Zheng's hand, Meng Fan sat to the side and started reading.
Seeing Wang Jian's back facing the table, Ying Zheng cast a glance at the meat in front of him.
I'll only eat one piece. It shouldn't be a problem, right?
En, it was just a piece of meat. Presumably, it wouldn't grow on his body immediately.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng quickly raised his hand, picked up a piece of pork, and put it into his mouth.
Wang Jian widened his eyes and reminded him softly,""Your Majesty, I don't think this is a good idea…"
Feeling the fragrance of the meat in his mouth, Ying Zheng gave him a sideways glance, then raised his chopsticks again and reached into the plate.
Meng Fan suddenly turned around and caught Ying Zheng red-handed.
Their eyes met, and the atmosphere became awkward.
" Hehe, I'll just eat two pieces to taste it," Ying Zheng explained, and then sent the second piece of meat into his mouth at lightning speed.
Meng Fan helplessly put down the stack of letters and returned to his desk.
" It seems that if you want Old Zhao to successfully lose weight, I have to personally supervise him." Then, he looked at Wang Jian and criticized," Old Wang, even if Old Zhao is your boss, you have to think about his health. How can you condone him to play tricks?"”
The meat in Ying Zheng's mouth instantly lost its taste.'I only stole two pieces of meat, how come I'm being accused of cheating?'
With Meng Fan's supervision, he could only eat the vegetables in his bowl bit by bit.
He felt like an old bull.
When he thought about how his food would become like this in the future, Ying Zheng felt a little helpless.
He even wanted to expose his identity in advance and not stay with Meng Fan.
However, when he thought of the fact that he was doing this for his health and to prolong his life, he dismissed the idea.
Under Meng Fan's supervision, Ying Zheng finally finished the diet meal.
For the sake of Zhao's health, Meng Fan's salad had the original flavor. Not only did he not add any seasoning, he didn't even add salt.
After eating all these, Ying Zheng tasted nothing but the taste of various vegetables in his mouth.
After watching Ying Zheng finish eating and clearing the dishes, Meng Fan returned to the children's homework.
At night, Ying Zheng's meal was as light as ever. Wang Jian couldn't bear to enjoy the spicy food in front of him, so he suggested Meng Fan to wait until Ying Zheng was done before eating.
Seeing Ying Zheng's bitter face, Meng Fan accepted the suggestion generously.
"Old Zhao, remember to get up early tomorrow to train. I've already handed the fist technique to you, so you don't need me to tutor you anymore, right? Then don't wake me up. Let me sleep more. If I get enough sleep, I might be able to grow longer.”Meng Fan gave Ying Zheng a few instructions before happily returning to his room.
After Meng Fan's room turned off the lights, Wang Jian slipped out again.
An hour later, Wang Jian sneaked into the room.
"Old General, what did the Black Ice Platform say?”Seeing him return, Ying Zheng stood up and asked.
Wang Jian cupped his hands and replied," Your Majesty, the Black Ice Platform said that the governor of Beidi County, Bai Heng, knew that you had arrived in Beidi County and wanted to pay a visit personally. Therefore, he called all the officials in the north to the county government and asked them about Your Majesty's exact location.”
"Didn't I say that no one is allowed to come unless there are special circumstances?”Ying Zheng frowned and said," Could it be that the Black Ice Platform didn't convey my words to Bai Heng?”
Wang Jian analyzed," The Black Ice Platform has naturally already conveyed His Majesty's intentions to Bai Heng. This old minister estimates that Bai Heng probably has something to ask of him."”
Hearing his words, Ying Zheng also reacted.
Indeed, as his most handy weapon, the Black Ice Platform must have conveyed his intentions to Bai Heng.
However, Bai Heng still acted like this. Even if he had something to ask of him, he did not take his words to heart.
"Hmph, what? Did Bai Heng not want to be the Prefectural Governor of Beidi County anymore?”Guessing Bai Heng's thoughts, Ying Zheng snorted coldly.
Wang Jian was silent for a moment before he hesitated." Your Majesty, this old minister has something to say. I don't know if I should say it."”
"Old General, just say it."
" Yes." Wang Jian continued," Bai Heng is also a general. After His Majesty destroyed the Chu Country, he sent him to the Northern Lands. It has been some years since then…"
"What?" Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows. Does the old general mean that I shouldn't let him guard the north?”
" That's not what I meant," Wang Jian hurriedly explained." But that Bai Heng is a general after all. He's young and impetuous. It's fine for him to be in charge of the Northern Lands for a short period of time, but as time goes on…"
" Old General, I understand what you mean." Ying Zheng patted Wang Jian's shoulder and said," But this Northern Lands was originally the land of the Rong and Di tribes, and now, many of them are living here. If I don't send someone who is good at commanding troops to guard it, what if those Rong and Di tribes rise from the ashes?”
"The Northern Lands is not far from Xianyang…" Ying Zheng sighed.
Hearing Ying Zheng's explanation, Wang Jian fell silent.
As an old general, he knew what Ying Zheng was worried about, but could Bai Heng understand it?
