Chapter 185: Panic

When Meng Guiyu entered the door with a cold body, it was already dusk.

There are two melon-shaped blue gauze begonia palace lamps lit in the study, a furnace of Rui dragon brain is burned in the door, and a stick of green smoke in the gilded duck is rushing straight to the beam of the room, and it is blown by the cold wind that he put in when he opens the door, like a beauty with a discolored face scattered around.

Under the lamp not far away, Meng Guihan was writing hard, but he was imitating his handwriting to review official documents.

Seeing his brother returning, he hurriedly put down Zihao and got up to greet him: "Sixth brother, how is it?"

"Something is wrong!" Meng Guiyu nodded at him, turned his head to look at the scholar Meng Yan, and saw that he went out obediently and closed the door, so he took the hot tea poured by his younger brother, took a sip, and his pale face blown by the cold wind was somewhat ruddy, and said in a low voice, "The Western Xinjiang side took the evidence that Meng instructed Gao Heyi to preside over the collusion with Ru Ru to murder the county lord of Kangzhao...... Simply Mizhen and the county lord Kangzhao didn't want the Meng clan to fall at this moment, so they wrote a secret letter to Mrs. Ning Weihou, so Mrs. Ning Weihou took the opportunity to inform the queen of the matter under the pretext of entering the palace to ask for brocade!"

Meng Guihan's hand shook when he heard this, and the tea he was pouring for himself suddenly fell on the table by mistake, he quickly stopped, opened his mouth and stammered for a while before he said in a dumb voice: "This ...... And now?!"

"I told the queen to tell my aunt. Meng Guiyu lowered his eyelids and said lightly, "Whoever provokes the matter, who will deal with the aftermath...... What do we have to do?"

Meng Guihan said uneasily: "That's what I said, but ...... What if...... We're much better now than we used to be, but ...... But ......"

"This matter depends on the Meng clan left and right, King Gaomi's side must have been operating in the shadows, ready to make trouble!" Meng Guiyu glanced at him and said calmly, "It is already a blessing to be able to learn the news in advance and make a response! If the Meng clan really can't hold on, this is also fate, we have nothing to talk about...... However, regarding the fact that the county lord of Kangzhao has withdrawn from Yizhou City and is planning to leave the western frontier and return to Chang'an, this is something we have to consider!"

Meng Guihan didn't slow down a little, opened his mouth, and then said, "Kangzhao County Lord she...... Did she actually leave Yizhou City? Count the days, did Ruru leave before the pressure of the realm? Mizhen is ...... Hehe, I'm not afraid of people saying that he is selfish, knowing that Ru Ru is about to commit a crime, he is busy transferring his family!"

Meng Guiyu shook his head and said, "This is for a reason: the county lord of Kangzhao is pregnant. Mi Zhen may have planned to send her back to Chang'an before receiving the news that Ru Ru had transferred to the western frontier. After all, the county lord has always been pampered, and it is not easy to follow Mizhen to the western frontier. If she wants to give birth and give birth in Xijiang, the Sheng family will not be at ease in the first place!"

"Now the life of this county lord is directly related to whether the relationship between Mizhen and the Sheng family and several other rich families is stable. Whether it's for this county lord or from the perspective of interests, how could Mi Zhen let her take risks?"

Meng Guihan anxiously rubbed the cup in his hand, and said absentmindedly: "Okay, the county lord of Kangzhao is on his way to leave Western Xinjiang and return to Chang'an...... What about it, shall we?"

"Can't let her come to Chang'an!" Meng Guiyu said categorically, "The queen doesn't know anything about our arrangement, and when Mrs. Ning Weihou met her before, she didn't ask who the county lord of Kangzhao was accompanying her?" I suspect that Mizhen sent her right-hand man among them by the way, and she was also here for us as the Mizhen County Mansion that escorted the county lord of Kangzhao back to Chang'an!"

"Once the county lord of Kangzhao arrives in Chang'an, I am afraid that our hard work these days will be in vain!"

Although Rong Sleeping Crane still has a very good team, when he went to Western Xinjiang before, the old people he trusted and relied on the most, such as Gongsun Xi, Xu Lianshan, Zheng Sen, etc., including Yishan and Yiliu, who were born in the Wuyi Battalion, were all taken away.

This is because he has the same opinion as Sheng Weiqiao, that is, strength is the last word, so the battle in Western Xinjiang is the most important, as long as Western Xinjiang, that is, the Western Xinjiang Army, is won down, no matter how the layout of other places is defeated, it is a big deal to start over!

So naturally, go all out.

Second, Rong Mianhe was ready at that time, and once there was a war, or Sheng Wei Qiao Youxi, then he would arrange for his wife to return to Chang'an. At that time, he didn't expect Zhao Shi's help to come so coincidentally, just when Sheng Wei Qiao Youxi arrived soon after, and brought all the powerful henchmen with him, also considering that he had to rely on his own strength to send his wife away, and the couple could feel more at ease if they had more henchmen.

In this way, the manpower on Chang'an's side is overstretched.

Even if Rong Sleeping Crane specially left Gongsun Shu to sit in the town, but Gongsun Shu is only one person in the end, and the official positions granted after Zhao'an are far inferior to Meng Guiyu and Meng Guihan brothers.

Now that Rong Sleeping Crane is far away in the western Xinjiang, Meng Guiyu and Meng Guihan have repeatedly increased their power with the help of the Shu sisters, and they are naturally indifferent to Gongsun Shu. Gongsun Shu has no one to rely on, and he can't screw them, so he can only report to Xijiang and let Rong Sleeping Crane think about it.

Originally, after Meng Guiyu knew about Gongsun Shu's report, he planned to take a step back in exchange for Rong Sleeping Crane's understanding.

After all, his current full-fledged level of wings does not dare to confront Rong Sleeping Crane.

Not to mention anything else, the fact that Meng Jiaqian was assassinated before he left Northern Xinjiang was a wake-up call for him!

But now that he knew Sheng Weiqiao's whereabouts, he wondered, did he use this master to drag the henchmen that Rong Sleepy Crane originally sent to Chang'an?

Meng Guiyu groaned, "It's best if the county lord of Kangzhao County has any discomfort on the way, and the baby is safe on the spot!"

"This county lord has always been pampered, and when he went to Western Xinjiang before, it is said that he used several carriages to load the clothes and jewelry alone!" Meng Guihan was puzzled, "When I came back this time, I said that I was escorted by Lu Shiyu's department, and I don't know how many servants accompanied me?" So many people are staring, and they are all the sons of the Sheng family who have served for several generations, and the family members are either in Chang'an Shengfu, or in Western Xinjiang, and not in Nanfeng County, they are all staring under the noses of the Sheng family or the king of Mizhen County, which is neither easy to buy nor threaten...... So, we're afraid we won't be able to reach over?"

"From the western Xinjiang back to Chang'an, are there any bandits on the road who are relatively large and bold and not afraid of death?" Meng Guiyu thought for a while, and asked Meng Guihan to take the map and spread it on the table to study, "You can't start from the side of the county lord of Kangzhao, but you can let her encounter an attack on the road, in the chaos of the army, whether it is a carriage overturning or being frightened...... With this master's pampering, eighty percent of them will be a little uncomfortable. In this way, even if she still wants to persevere, she must be persuaded to stop and find a place to recuperate. ”

"But this place can't be too far away from Chang'an, in that case, considering the current situation in Western Xinjiang, it will be considered a non-long-term place;

Meng Guihan nodded as he listened, but to the disappointment of the brothers, as far as they knew, there were no such suitable bandits.

It is not surprising that the biggest bandit in Western Xinjiang has become the Jishan Camp under the command of Rong Sleeping Crane.

And even when the Jishan battalion was still a Jishan bandit, it couldn't stop the five thousand northern Xinjiang elite cavalry.

The Jishan thieves are already the result of the indulgence of Ni Jidao and others who are single-mindedly corrupt and pervert the law, and not every local magistrate is as irresponsible as the officials in Western Xinjiang. Therefore, the bandits in other places cannot develop the scale of Jishan bandits at all, let alone stop Lu Shiyu.

This is still a relatively far away place from Chang'an.

Closer, a place like Gyeonggi, which is the foot of the Son of Heaven, the best place, is really the hundreds of thousands of forbidden soldiers who eat white rice? !

"There are no bandits to take advantage of. Meng Guiyu pondered for a while, sighed, and said, "Then there is only one way to do it now: persuade this county lord not to come to Chang'an!"

Meng Guihan was surprised: "Convince her? This is unlikely, isn't it? Not to mention the difference between men and women, she is under the protection of Lu Shiyu's department, we can't contact her directly at all, let's just say Sixth brother, didn't you just say that this county lord is pampered, and now she is pregnant, she must go back to Chang'an to have a baby and give birth, how can she go to other places at this time? Could it be that she will turn back to Xijiang to find Mizhen and share weal and woe?

"Have you forgotten the queen?" Meng Guiyu glanced at him and reminded, "She can report to the queen about Meng Jiaqian's affairs, and the queen will give her something in return and tell her that Chang'an is not suitable to come...... What's the problem?"

Meng Guihan said: "But how can the queen convince the county lord of Kangzhao?"

"......" Meng Guiyu stared for a long time, gritted his teeth, and said, "In this way, tell her that the Shu sisters have learned about the relationship between Mizhen and Huan Guanlan! These two sisters are notorious, and the little prince born to His Majesty before was poisoned, let alone the county lord of Kangzhao?! Especially since His Majesty is still here, even if the county lord of Kangzhao has many backers, he doesn't dare to say that he will definitely be able to stop the calculations of these two!"

"So for the health of herself and her children, I'm not afraid that she won't find an excuse to avoid Chang'an!"

"But this news is so ......urgent," Meng Guihan hesitated, "And the Shu sisters have told you not to tell Mi Zhen!"

Meng Guiyu said: "So I plan to let the queen come forward, make her favor, and tell the county lord of Kangzhao! As for where the queen found out, let her find another person to top the tank! Anyway, Mizhen has risen so quickly, whether it is the Meng family or the king of Gaomi, they are not dead people, how can they not have doubts? As long as they don't say that they are the ones we informed, they will be successful. The county lord of Kangzhao is not Mizhen, this county lord is more naïve, not as conscienceless and shameless as Mizhen, and he will definitely not turn his head and sell the queen to the Shu sisters. Then we won't be exposed!"

He also said, "Actually, Mi Zhen knows that this matter is not harmful to us, because whether it is the Shu sisters or us, we don't want Mi Zhen to fall at this time." In this case, Mi Zhen and the Shu sisters must continue to pretend to each other...... Even Mi Zhen originally thought that the Shu sisters didn't know his details, but they were heart-to-heart for him, and they had a plan for the two sisters, but they might not have much defense!"

"Now that I know that these two sisters are uneasy and kind, I must have more thoughts to guard against them!"

"In this way, it is equivalent to reducing the pressure for us. ”

His eyes flashed, "Well, it's better to go back to the Shu sisters and provoke it, lest Kang Zhao not come to Chang'an, and live a relaxed life outside, Mi Zhen arranged for her henchmen to relax and come to Chang'an alone...... I wonder what I'm going to say then?"
