CHAPTER XV

"Zhao'er!" Fu Zheng called from afar.

Fu Zhao and Mei Ru heard his voice, and looked over together, Fu Zhao didn't step forward, but only asked, "Seventh brother, what's the matter?" Mei Ru didn't speak, she stood behind the eleventh brother at this moment, looking at her distant and indifferent.

The two of them really look like they are a family, he is an outsider, and he will have to be her uncle in the future.

Pressing the discomfort in his heart, Fu Zheng asked rhetorically: "Zhao'er, didn't you say that you had something important yesterday?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Fu Zhao patted his head and hurriedly said, "Forget and forget." As he ran, he turned his head to Mei Ru and said, "I brought good things, I'll send them to you myself later." Mei Ru said, "Your Highness is slow." Fu Zhao paused, and asked in a daze: "What's wrong?" ”

Fu Zheng watched from afar, and really felt that he could be choked by this younger brother. Yesterday, I met him and Mei Ru head-on, this guy with no conscience also ran to the girl's house first to ask questions, and now Mei Ru's words, Fu Zhao paused again, completely leaving his brother behind. Fu Zheng didn't say a word, only looked at it coldly.

I saw Mei Ru return to the tent, and when she came out again, she had an extra dagger in her hand.

With just one glance, Fu Zheng instantly understood Mei Ru's intentions. She didn't want this dagger, but if Mei Ru returned it directly, Fu Zheng naturally wouldn't want it, and now that she asked her eleventh brother to take it, Fu Zheng couldn't help but take it! His face darkened, and Fu Zheng's eyes were cold.

Over there, Mei Ru said to Fu Zhao: "Your Highness, His Royal Highness King Yan's dagger is here with me, I am inconvenient to go over, and I bother His Highness to return it to King Yan." ”

"Yes." Fu Zhao didn't think much about it, picked up the dagger and turned around and ran.

Fu Zheng's eyes became colder and colder, and he looked at Mei Ru. The man didn't hide or avoid anymore, he bowed calmly from afar, and there was nothing else, only Shi Shiran to return the account.

The hand under the wide sleeves couldn't help but clench it again, and Fu Zheng returned to the tent with a calm face. Later, Fu Zhao followed and handed him the dagger: "Seventh brother, I will return it to you." Frowning and glancing, Fu Zheng took it, put it on the case casually, didn't say anything else, just asked the matter: "Zhao'er, why did you suddenly leave Beijing and come here?" But what happened in the capital? ”

"Exactly!" Fu Zhao nodded hurriedly, "Seventh brother, there are rumors in the capital that you are collaborating with the enemy, and they also say that you have a personal relationship with the princess of Xiqiang, and that Seventh Brother is not winning this battle, and now the envoy is even more selfish." ”

After this crime is detained, he is really full of holes.

"Huh." Fu Zheng snorted coldly, and he was the first to ask, "How is the prince?" ”

Fu Zhao replied: "For the time being, I am still grounded in the East Palace, but I am just ......" After a slight pause, Fu Zhao whispered: "My father seems to have loosened up, and the queen seems to be looking for someone to overturn the case, saying that the talented person who hanged to death was hooked up with someone because he couldn't bear it." ”

When Fu Zheng heard this, his eyes were full of yin owls. He asked again, "How is the movement of Mrs. He?" ”

"Taifu doesn't move much for the time being." Fu Zhao shook his head. Hearing Seventh Brother ask about Mrs. He, he thought about it for a while, and said: "Seventh Brother, don't worry, Sister Zhou naturally doesn't believe those rumors, and she also firmly said that this is obviously nonsense." Now that the whole capital knows that Fu Zheng wants to marry Zhou Suqing, Fu Zhao naturally thinks the same, so he specially comforted him.

Hearing this, Fu Zheng's face turned pale, and when he thought of the eleventh brother and the girl, he didn't say anything, only said "um".

After a little hesitation, he ordered: "Eleventh brother, you quickly write a letter for me to ask for sins and send it back to the capital." "He is now injured in his right shoulder, so naturally he can't hold a pen.

"What is the sin, please?" Fu Zhao was puzzled.

Fu Zheng said indifferently: "The tree is a big move, and now there are people in the capital who are dissatisfied with me, and these rumors are spread everywhere." This time the envoy was martyred for the country, how could those people not use such a great opportunity? I'm afraid that if I don't return to Beijing, those people will condemn me! If he changes his position, Fu Zheng is only afraid that he will be more ruthless and desperate, and he will not give the other party a chance to turn over.

Thinking like this, Fu Zheng's face was calm and terrifying.

"Then Seventh Brother, aren't your combat exploits in vain?" Fu Zhao is very anxious, he will not return to Beijing as soon as he returns, and the seventh brother will be punished by his father for a big crime, right? He was really worried in his heart, and said: "Seventh brother, Xiqiang rebelled in the country, was attacked strangely, and the envoys were killed, could it be all arranged by the prince's side in collusion?" ”

Fu Zheng sneered. Even if he is not the crown prince, he will be the king of Zhao and the king of Qi. He is now just a budding newcomer, and when he has won the battle exploits, he will attract killing opportunities, and he really steps on the tip of the knife with every step, and he has to be more cautious. Fu Zheng was silent.

Fu Zhao pondered beside him for a while, and said cautiously: "Seventh brother, you won't really have a personal affair with that princess, right?" Fu Zheng glanced over. Fu Zhao shrunk his neck and whispered, "Didn't the princess send someone to come to you specially?" Fu Zhao was referring to the fact that after the civil strife in Xiqiang, Princess Ah Yan escaped from the palace and sent someone to Fu Zheng for help overnight - Fu Zheng had already seen those people in the Chinese military tent before.

Now that the Xiqiang Dynasty is in turmoil, that princess naturally wants to seek the blessing of the Great Wei Dynasty, and it is easy to talk about the conditions at this time.

Fu Zheng snorted, raised his hand to knock on Fu Zhao's head, and ordered, "Invite Miss Mei San." ”

"Follow?" Fu Zhao was surprised, "Seventh brother, what are you looking for her?" ”

"Send her to the princess." Fu Zheng replied with no expression on his face.

Fu Zhao was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, he was surprised: "Seventh brother, do you want to go and talk to the princess about the conditions for us to put down the rebellion for her?" ”

"Not bad." Turning his eyes to look at him, Fu Zheng still replied expressionlessly.

"That's not good, she's a girl's family, how can she do this kind of thing?" Fu Zhao immediately objected, thought for a moment, and still replied categorically: "This is too dangerous, and the responsibility is too heavy, what if the following is not negotiated?" Didn't you hurt her? ”

Fu Zhao's protective posture made him look like a wicked person.

For some reason, Fu Zheng suddenly sighed lightly, and he said, "Zhao'er, I didn't force her to go, I just wanted to ask her what she meant." ”

After a slight pause, Fu Zheng said slowly: "Miss Mei San was already favored by the prince, you also know what the root of the big house of Meifu looks like, her father is just a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and he has no achievements, her brother has won the battle, but he is only a little centurion, what is the use?" When I return to Beijing this time, I will definitely be punished, Zhao'er, you can't protect her for the time being, if she has no merit in this mission, how can she stand up when she goes back? ”

These words made sense every word, Fu Zhao froze, turned his head and ran out. There are all the big guys in the barracks here, and he has to go and ask Mei Ru to come over in person.

Hearing that Fu Zheng wanted to see herself, Mei Ru was reluctant in her heart. Fu Zhao said: "It's not a bad thing. ”

"What?" Mei Ru was suspicious.

Fu Zhao didn't sell it, and hurriedly told Princess Xiqiang about sending someone for help.

Mei Ru paused for a moment and said, "His Royal Highness King Yan wants me to go?" ”

Fu Zhao nodded and asked, "Follow-up, are you going?" ”

"Go." Mei Ru replied.

She was originally an envoy sent by Emperor Yanchang, but now that the main and deputy envoys are dead, and the others are missing, she is the face of the Wei Dynasty. If you slip back like this, you will make other countries laugh in vain! Now that the opportunity is in front of her, she naturally wants to take a risk.

Besides, it's not too risky. Xiqiang is in civil strife, and the princess, who is less than ten years old, wants to seek protection and let the Wei Dynasty put down the rebellion for her, which is really like divine help.

Without further ado, Mei Ru hurriedly went to see Fu Zheng.

Now the matter of the envoy is still under the command of Fu Zheng, and she naturally has to discuss the specific matters with this person. For example, how much silver is paid every year, how many cities are cut, and how many beauties, gold, silver, and jewelry are offered. The original amount was set by Emperor Yanchang before the envoy, but Meiru felt that she could ask for more now, and the other party was not very likely to refuse.

Thinking about it like this, she couldn't help but have some light-hearted joy on her face.

When Mei Ru followed Fu Zhao into the account, the corners of her mouth were still involuntarily bent quietly, her lips were soft and lush, but there were still ambiguous traces on them...... Glancing at her, Fu Zheng looked away carelessly.

Sensing the man's gaze, Mei Ru saluted and only stood with her head down. There is still Fu Zhao in this tent, so she naturally doesn't worry about anything.

Over there, Fu Zhao had already said for Mei Ru: "Seventh brother, she said that she was going." ”

Fu Zheng let out an "um" and looked up at Mei Ru again, "Third girl, what are your own plans?" He asked.

"Back to Your Highness, I just want to discuss this matter with Your Highness." Mei Ru said respectfully, not seeing anything unusual at all.

Fu Zheng snorted coldly, secretly thinking, this girl is also a little thing who can pretend. Although he thought so in his heart, his face was also businesslike, and Fu Zheng said, "You can tell me about it." ”

The two of them said these serious things with rules and regulations, and Fu Zhao felt a little bored. He sat there doing nothing, and Fu Zheng said, "Eleventh brother, you go down first to write that excerpt for me." He added, "After you finish writing, show it to me." ”

Hearing that Fu Zhao was leaving, Mei Ru's heart finally tightened slightly. With her and Fu Zheng left, the situation is not so easy.

Fu Zhao should come down and was about to go out, but he didn't expect Fu Zheng to suddenly call him again: "Zhao'er." Fu Zhao turned around and asked, "What else is going on?" ”

Glancing at Mei Ru again, Fu Zheng arranged: "This time, Miss Mei San is on an envoy, and you will follow along." ”

"I'm going too?" Fu Zhao was surprised for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, and he said to Mei Ru proudly: "Follow it, so that this prince can still take care of you all the way." ”

I don't know what to think, Mei Ru was silent and didn't speak.

Fu Zheng was also silent.

When Fu Zhao went down happily, there were only two of them left in this tent, and the atmosphere was depressed for a while, and Mei Ru was still standing there, very respectful. Looking at her with dark eyes, Fu Zheng said lightly: "Aru, sit down." ”

As soon as she heard this title, Mei Ru's hairs stood on end, and she glared at Fu Zheng vigilantly and warningly.

Those eyes were too powerful, Fu Zheng lowered his eyes: "Aru, don't worry, the king is in the eyes of you and the eleventh brother, otherwise this arrangement will not be made." He only said with a slight wistfulness: "It's just that I can't change my mouth for a while." As he spoke, he still looked at Mei Ru and asked, "What about you?" ”

His eyebrows and eyes were cold and cruel, and now it was rare to have some sadness.

Mei Ru didn't speak, but still stood respectfully.

Fu Zheng laughed at himself again, and he instead admonished: "The eleventh brother's temperament is a little frizzy, Aru, you have a tough and calm temperament, and you take care of him more on the road." After speaking, there was silence for a while, and Fu Zheng still laughed self-deprecatingly: "However, the eleventh brother will definitely take good care of you, but this king is too worried." ”

This time it was quieter for longer.

After a while, Fu Zheng got up and walked to Mei Ru.

His figure was shrouded in a heavy shadow, Mei Ru was a little uncomfortable, and in the next moment, the man unceremoniously grabbed her wrist!

Mei Ru was startled, she struggled hard, but Fu Zheng's strength was so great that she couldn't break free, Mei Ru could only glare angrily, "Your Highness!" She whispered to him. Fu Zheng had a calm face. He didn't do anything else, only put the dagger back into her palm, looked at Mei Ru again, and said solemnly: "Aru, you must take good care of yourself outside, don't let this king worry here." ”
