"My lord—"

Meng Heng was about to salute, but Jiang Pengji stopped him.

"There are no outsiders here, and Cousin Heng doesn't need to be honored in private. ”

Meng Heng shook his head and said solemnly, "Etiquette cannot be abolished, although Heng is the cousin of the lord, he can't easily trespass." ”

No matter how good the relationship is, it can't withstand the subtleties of neglect and rudeness, Meng Heng doesn't want today's closeness to become "rude" in the future.

Jiang Pengji secretly rolled her eyes and sighed, "Cousin Heng is good everywhere, but his personality is too cautious." ”

Meng Heng was silent, this prudence and etiquette had gone deep into the bone marrow, and it could not be changed for a while.

If he hadn't been careful enough, I'm afraid he wouldn't have lived to this age.

Jiang Pengji grabbed a few casually, leaned on it with most of her body, and asked casually, "What does Cousin Heng want to know?"

Meng Heng was looking for himself, definitely not for business, most of it was related to the dungeon incident.

"I'm very happy, Cousin Heng still chooses to trust me. Jiang Pengji said with a smile, if Meng Heng was a little dissatisfied, he could have asked Nie Xun, but he didn't wait until Meng Zhan's funeral was over, "Since Cousin Heng treats me with sincerity, I can't deceive." ”

Meng Heng sat upright, like a green bamboo that did not bend his waist in the wind and rain, and that toughness and integrity were exactly what Jiang Pengji admired.

"Nie Chengyun - he, he is the pearl of the Meng family's relic?"

Meng Heng had already guessed that Nie Xun was related to him, but he didn't guess that the other party was the younger brother of his mother's compatriot.

Jiang Pengji sighed, "This matter is relatively long, and Cousin Heng is afraid that he doesn't know that Meng Ying is not Aunt Shu's child." ”

"What?" Meng Heng's eyes widened in shock.

Jiang Pengji said, "Aunt Shu and Meng Zhan's concubine were pregnant at the same time, and the two gave birth to their sons almost at the same time. In order not to wronged the children of the concubine, Meng Zhan acquiesced to the concubine's room and changed the concubine. Aunt Shu's real child was replaced by the concubine and was 'dead' within two days. The servant woman hastily buried the baby, and luckily was dug up by a passing servant woman, and sold it to Zhongzhao——"

Meng Heng's hands clenched into fists trembled, and at this moment, he was almost speechless.

"Nie, Nie Xun - he's that kid?"

No wonder –

Meng Zhan, Meng Ying and the concubines are like a family, but Meng Heng has always wondered why his father let his second son be raised by a concubine-

The crux of the matter is here!

"I think Aunt Shu probably didn't want your situation in Mengfu to be more difficult, so she didn't tell you these old things. Jiang Pengji took a sip of sake, and the faint wine spread in her mouth, slightly bitter, "At first, I didn't recognize Nie Xun's identity, but I just felt that his silhouette resembled someone, and I couldn't remember who this person was for a while." Later, I heard that Nie Xun is very close to you and takes care of you, and Nie Xun came to Dongqing to find relatives - at this point, I can confirm his identity with confidence, he is the real Meng Ying!"

Meng Heng shook his head.

"No—Nie Xun is Nie Xun, how can the name Meng Xun defile him?"

Receiving too much information in a short period of time, Meng Heng couldn't calm down.

"The lord already knew Nie Xun's identity, so the matter of the dungeon - you also deliberately contributed to it?"

Jiang Pengji hooked her lips.

"Cousin Heng, this is chilling, suspect that I deliberately pushed you into death?"

Meng Heng shook his head weakly, looking at the weakness, as if he had been drained of his energy.

"The lord's martial arts are strong, and the distance was not far at that time, and you have been watching from the wall, so it can be seen that you are sure. The Meng family master suddenly broke out, this move is not something that outsiders can control - Heng is just not sure, in your calculations, do you want Heng to kill the Meng family master?"

Jiang Pengji frowned, "Let you kill? What's the difference between this and personally abolishing you?"

Meng Heng is different from Nie Xun, if Meng Heng is allowed to kill Meng Zhan by mistake, this person may be depressed for the rest of his life.

"Does the lord want to abolish Nie Xun?"

"Cousin Heng, is this soft-hearted?"

"People are not plants and trees, how can they be ruthless?"

Meng Heng did not deny it.

He really has a good impression of Nie Xun, and the other party looks similar to his mother, which invisibly adds a bit of closeness.

Suddenly hearing that he was his brother, Meng Heng was surprised and delighted, and he was really ruthless for a while.

Meng Heng's lips fluttered, and his eyes were full of complexity and struggle.

Although there is no deep brotherhood, but as soon as he comes up, he will abolish the other party, and Meng Heng will not be able to do this.

Jiang Pengji sneered, "Nie Chengyun is not Cousin Heng, his heart is far harder than yours. is a father but is born but not raised, Meng Zhan is not only not a biological father, but an enemy of life and death. He repeatedly offered advice to Bo Gao, and repeatedly blocked me. This dungeon incident can not only end the enmity between me and Meng Zhan, but also ring the alarm bell for Nie Xun, killing multiple birds with one stone. I did this with a clear conscience. If you really say you're sorry for anyone, you're also sorry for Cousin Heng...... No matter how bad he is, he is your father. ”

Could it be that only Nie Xun is allowed to calculate her, and she is not allowed to calculate Nie Xun?

Moreover, Jiang Pengji's real purpose was to make Meng Zhan die blindly, and Nie Xun was just incidental.

How dare Meng Heng respond?

What Meng Zhan did was not just a personal grudge, he also touched the righteousness of his family and country, which was enough to drag the entire Meng clan into a forbidden land from which he could never recover. Even if Meng Heng still has a trace of father-son affection in his heart, he will not faint and intercede for Meng Zhan.

The lord is willing to be honest with him, which is already a rare trust.

Jiang Pengji didn't force him, Meng Heng would figure it out.

After a while, Meng Heng said, "Lord, then the previous arrangement-"

originally wanted to separate Huang Song and Nie Xun, and used Nie Xun as a breakthrough to split from the inside, causing discord between their monarchs and ministers.

Now there's something going on-

"Naturally, I want to continue, but I'm not a ruthless person, if Cousin Heng doesn't want to, I won't force you. ”

Meng Heng shook his head, he naturally didn't mention this matter to pick on him halfway.

"It's best for Heng to do this. The lord gives Heng a heavy responsibility, and Heng should repay him with a national soldier. ”

Meng Heng is not stupid, and the princes are not children playing for hegemony, and they lose all the games if they are not careful.

Feng Jin and Feng Jue brothers parted ways because of this, what are he and Nie Xun?

Meng Heng's side was solved, but Nie Xun's troubles had just begun.

After the dungeon that day, Feng Jue informed Huang Song of his guess.

Huang Song was stunned.

"Are you saying - Cheng Yun is from the Meng family, or Meng Heng's younger brother, why did he hide such an important matter?"

"Mostly. ”

If Nie Xun was not an insider, it would be fine, but Yuan Xin had told Huang Song that Nie Xun called Meng Heng "big brother"!

Contacting Nie Xun's reaction in the dungeon, the other party clearly knew about it a long time ago, but he refused to disclose it.

What is the intention?

"Chengyun found a loved one, and Song was also happy for him, as for hiding like this?"

The more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, and Huang Song was uncomfortable.

Feng Jue said, "My lord, this matter is very important, and I ask my lord to make a conclusion after in-depth investigation." ”

Feng Jue's persuasion, Huang Song naturally listened to it, but he always didn't have a taste in his heart.
