Chapter 143: The Stone Chamber's Scheme
"Haha..."Jiang Mei laughed as if she had heard a funny joke, and finally held back her laughter and replied: "Jiang Mei's posture of Pu Liu, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the eyes of His Highness!" ”
Xiao Mojiao shook his head and smiled: "Miss Jiang is wrong to think so, a woman like you who has a good mind and a good balance of wisdom and art wants to be conquered by men more," he said as he approached Jiang Mei and said hoarsely: "Otherwise, how could our ninth brother, who is famous all over the world, ignore the weak water and only go to drink a scoop?" Xiao Mojiu smiled and said contemptuously, he stared at Jiang Mei, trying to find a strange look on her face.
Jiang Mei was surprised, "Is there such a thing?" Then she smiled again: "Sixth Highness, although I have a lot of dealings with the Nine Emperor Princes, the two of them are like confidants, and there is no relationship between men and women, I am afraid that Your Highness has misunderstood!" ”
"Haha, misunderstanding or not, won't you see it soon?" Xiao Mojiao sneered,
Jiang Mei nodded thoughtfully when she heard this, "It's too!" ”
Her reaction made Xiao Mo angry, and he couldn't answer for a while.
At this time, Jiang Mei seized the opportunity and said tentatively: "I just saw His Highness's reaction, it seems that there is a woman I like and I can't stay together?" ”
Xiao Mojiu's depression deepened when he heard this, so he turned his head and ignored her, but the more he reacted like this, the more Jiang Mei knew his answer.
Jiang Mei seemed to understand Xiao Mojiu's thoughts and continued: "Oh, I see, but it doesn't matter, now that the Zhang clan is raising troops in Wu, it will hit the capital in a few days, and then rescue His Royal Highness, and his Royal Highness will ascend to the Ninety-Five Honor one day." What do you want, a woman doesn't have it! Jiang Mei seemed to be full of confidence to give him an analysis.
But in Xiao Mojiu's eyes, he felt that Jiang Mei was sarcastic about her, and he clasped Jiang Mei's chest in anger and said, "Are you laughing at this king?" He didn't expect Zhang Bowang to defeat Su Weiheng and Xie Yun, the reason why he did this was to use this to contain the imperial court, while he was looking for an opportunity to lay out in Beijing.
"Your Highness, don't be impatient, since Jiang Mei is already under His Highness's account, then I have to give His Highness some tricks!" Jiang Mei held back the discomfort of being clasped by him, and squeezed out a smile and said.
Jiang Mei directly ignored the fact that she was arrested, and volunteered to be Xiao Mojiu's guest of the scene.
Xiao Mojiu's dark eyes moved slightly when he heard this, and the narrow Danfeng eyes gradually let go of their guard and smiled.
Xiao Mojiu gradually let go, and Jiang Mei finally couldn't help coughing a few times. His face turned red.
Xiao Moxuan looked at her thoughtfully and said, "Ever since I knew about your relationship with Xiaoyuelou. I've been sending people to keep an eye on you, and I've long found out that you're not only powerful in Beijing, but also good at planning, so you must have a lot of credit for Jingzhou, right? ”
"Don't dare to be. It took a few tricks. Took away a few of your father-in-law's cities! Jiang Mei smiled lightly.
Xiao Mojiao smiled even more bitterly when he heard this. He originally thought that Yuan Kai's defeat of Pei Yun's expeditionary army should be easy, but it ended up being ruined and self-defeating. His princess still washes her face with tears every day, grieving for her father and brother.
"So the girl is ready to help me?" Xiao Mojiao said suspiciously. Although he didn't believe that Jiang Mei would do it here, the woman in front of him seemed to be different, and he couldn't grasp her mind at all.
Jiang Mei looked at Xiao Mojiao and said with a smile: "Those who know the times are Junjie, Xiaomei's biggest advantage is that she knows how to distinguish the current situation and knows how to do things that are beneficial to herself, and now my net worth and life are in the hands of His Highness, except for His Highness, what choice can I have?" Jiang Mei shrugged her shoulders, looking helpless, but in fact, she didn't feel the slightest compulsion.
This made Xiao Mojiao cry and laugh, obviously he was already the meat of other people's knives, but he could still be so free and calm, and swore to let the person who caught him in be a strategist, he really saw such a strange woman for the first time, I'm afraid there are not many men with such courage!
"How is the girl going to help me?" Xiao Mojiu couldn't help but ask.
"Jiang Mei's best thing is to satisfy the master's wishes, since His Royal Highness has a favorite person, then Jiang Mei will first help His Royal Highness marry that woman, and then use it as a meeting gift for Jiang Mei to serve His Royal Highness, and then help His Royal Highness to plan a great cause!" Jiang Mei leaned on the bed behind her and said easily.
Xiao Mojiu chuckled, "Why should I believe you?" ”
Jiang Mei shrank her feet when she heard this, sat upright and said: "Your Highness, please allow me to talk carefully, first, what Jiang Mei plans is what His Highness wants to do, isn't it to be a subordinate to make the master satisfied wholeheartedly?" Second, His Royal Highness and Jiang Mei have no festivals, isn't the reason why His Royal Highness caught Xiaomei into the mansion to contain the Nine Emperor Princes? So Xiaomei can't live with her life at all! ”
Jiang Mei directly omitted the last time she was intercepted and killed by Xiao Mojiao, and Xiao Mojiu also thought that she didn't know about the death of the crown princess, so her expression also soothed, Jiang Mei knew that he was already a little moved, and then said: "Third, Jiang Mei is now a prisoner of His Royal Highness, what can I do?" What's more, His Royal Highness is now under house arrest, presumably many courtiers have already looked at the wind, isn't His Highness lacking a person to give advice? Jiang Mei smiled with a hint of slyness.
And Xiao Mojiu was even more hit by her, as soon as he thought of the situation when the tree fell and scattered, he was indignant in his heart, thinking that when he was majestic in the past, how many people wanted to come to him and looked down on him, but now there is no one who wants to find someone to do something, there are only a few cronies left around him, and the people sent to kidnap Jiang Mei are already his last batch of dead soldiers.
Since Jiang Mei is not a taboo woman, what is he afraid of as a dignified son, he is now at the end of his rope, is he still afraid of losing again?
Xiao Mojiao made up his mind and said squarely: "Okay, Miss Jiang is so sincere, I Xiao Mojiu has no reason to refuse, don't worry, I will never hurt you a hair, but I can't let you out for the time being, please forgive me!" ”
Jiang Mei nodded, she didn't think about it at all, as long as Xiao Mojiao served her with good food and good food.
Now that the two have reached an agreement, Xiao Mojiu opened his mouth to mention the task, "Miss Jiang, I have indeed always liked a woman, and I don't want to let her down." So the girl will give me a trick first, and marry her into the door! ”
Jiang Mei smiled in her heart, presumably that woman should be Yiyue, "Actually, it's very simple, to retreat as advance, Your Highness can write a letter, admit to Your Majesty that you are not in the past, and try your best to clear yourself of the suspicion of participating in the rebellion of the Yuan and Zhang families, and then show that you are sitting in the humble retreat of the idle prince, Your Majesty is the father of His Royal Highness after all." He's going to be soft-hearted! ”
Xiao Mojiao shook his head. "It's not that simple, my father is suspected of inciting the Yuan rebellion, I'm afraid he hates me to the core!"
"No, no," Jiang Mei waved her hand repeatedly. Sincerely persuaded: "Your Highness." You're a fan of the authorities. His Majesty didn't want to find an excuse to cut Yuan's authority, but Yuan just hit the muzzle of the gun, and now Yuan is down. I also went to His Majesty's heart disease, His Majesty is even more angry in his heart, I am afraid that the families are in the name of the prince and quarrels, what he hates is also the arrogant and domineering family, not his own son, if you want to say that Your Majesty is really annoyed, it must be annoyed Your Highness You don't admit your mistake, and you trust those authoritarian families! ”
Xiao Mojiao stared at Jiang Mei incredulously when he heard this, it was the first time he had heard such a statement, but Jiang Mei's careful analysis made a lot of sense, how could he never have thought of this before. Emperor Dahuan is most worried about the fact that the imperial power is not prosperous, and the power is in the hands of others.
Xiao Moxuan's eyes at Jiang Mei at this time were no longer suspicious and defensive, but appreciative and admired, no wonder Xiao Mocheng was so nervous about her, such a woman has such a visionary strategist, who can't get it?
Xiao Mojiu nodded and said seriously: "Okay, I'll listen to you!" ”
"When His Royal Highness wrote the book, the handwriting was as calm as possible, with tears on the silk face, so that His Majesty knew that you were sad and repentant, and you were sick, so Your Majesty must be soft-hearted, and you will come to see Your Highness with the imperial doctor, and when the time comes, let the princess come forward and say that Your Royal Highness is not in good health for days, take the opportunity to rejoice, and also go to the bad luck of the palace, as long as the princess comes forward, and then try to let the imperial doctor add oil and vinegar, presumably Your Majesty will agree!" Jiang Mei instructed carefully.
"I will do what you say, then I will go out first, the girl will rest first, I will let people serve the good girl, and the girl will be wronged for a while!" Xiao Mojiao got up and said.
Jiang Mei also got up, bowed and said, "It's okay, Jiang Mei is waiting for the good news of His Highness!" ”
Jiang Mei straightened up and looked at Xiao Mojiao's departing back, and said silently in her heart: Since you attacked me three times and twice, don't blame me for not being soft.
Soon after Xiao Mojiu left, she asked a mute maid to bring lunch and quilts, and then Jiang Mei also found that there was a small room on the left side of the stone room, which had all the living utensils, and in this way, Jiang Mei was ready to live under this palace. It's not good that the mute maid is with her all the time, and she's not very boring.
Xiao Mocheng didn't come to see Jiang Mei on the second day, Jiang Mei thought that she was missing, Xiao Mocheng and Mu Xiaohe would definitely put a lot of pressure on him, he should be very busy at the moment.
In this way, Xiao Mojiu did not appear in Jiang Mei's stone room without warning until the night of the third day.
Although it was late at night at this time, Jiang Meiyin had eaten, slept and slept in the past few days, so her mental state was not bad, so she waited for her leisure.
Jiang Mei looked at Xiao Mojiu, who was a little listless, leaned over, blinked her eyes, and asked in surprise, "Your Highness, didn't that method work?" ”
Xiao Mojiao shook his head weakly, "No, as you said, my father was much more lenient with me, and he also sent the imperial doctor to see me, Bi Tao also put forward the suggestion of taking a concubine in a timely manner, and my father also approved it!" ”
Concubine? Jiang Mei noticed Xiao Mojiu's words, did he want to accept a side concubine? "Your Highness, didn't you say that you would take a concubine the day before yesterday, why are you thinking about taking a concubine now?" Jiang Mei was puzzled.
"I've managed to get someone to get a good identity for her, and I don't want her to be wronged, so I'm a concubine instead of a concubine!" Xiao Mojiu remembered Yiyue's charm and softness at this time, and his tone was much softer.
Jiang Mei nodded, it seems that he is really interested in Yiyue, she has heard that Xiao Mojiu and the princess Yuan Bitao Qinse are harmonious, and they respect each other like guests, but she can't imagine that although this Xiao Mojiu is ruthless, he is also warm to the woman he likes.
Since the plan has developed in the expected direction, why does Xiao Mojiao seem to be depressed?
"Isn't that what His Highness wants? Why is His Highness unhappy? Jiang Mei was surprised.
"The situation over there in Wu Xing is not very good, and my uncle may not be able to hold on!" Xiao Mojiu's tone was a little depressed, he originally thought that Wu Xing's side could drag on for a while, and he waited for the opportunity to force the palace during the suburban sacrifice, and the group of warriors he had worked hard to cultivate would be used at the most critical moment. But now that he has just begun to win the favor of Emperor Xiao again, he is just taking the opportunity to prepare for the suburban sacrifice, but Zhang Bowang has already begun to lose the battle.
"I didn't expect that Brother Qi is a good soldier, everywhere the soldiers go, they are all looking at the wind, and when I see him on weekdays, he looks like he has nothing to do with himself, this move is amazing!" Xiao Mojun continued to sigh, it turned out that in addition to Xiao Mocheng's opponent, there was now a Xiao Moheng, and he was also a general with heavy troops. Now I can only take risks!
When Jiang Mei heard this, it turned out that Xiao Moheng's successful march made Zhang Bowang suffer a lot of defeats, and she was secretly happy in her heart, and she was also with Jiang Mei's plan.
"Dare to ask when Your Highness is going to marry that girl?" Jiang Mei asked.
Xiao Mojiao stared at Jiang Mei affectionately and seriously, he was seriously thinking about whether the woman in front of him should be trusted, and what reason would make her help herself without hesitation?
Xiao Moxuan did not answer Jiang Mei's question, but looked at Jiang Mei for a long time, and after thinking for a long time, he asked out loud: "Miss Jiang, I want you to help me, what Xiao Mocheng can give you, I Xiao Mojiu can do the same, what conditions do you want me to agree to, so that you are willing to assist me wholeheartedly?" ”
Jiang Mei saw that he had been thinking about it for a long time, and his expression was serious, knowing that he had to implement his plan in advance due to Wu Xing's pressure, and it was very likely that he would take advantage of the opportunity of his concubine to do it.
Jiang Mei looked at him squarely and said calmly: "Your Highness, Jiang Mei was originally a woman in the rivers and lakes, and she was accidentally involved in the court situation, and I was helpless, for me whoever is the emperor is the same, I just want to live a free life, if I am willing to assist Your Highness, I only ask Your Highness to promise me that I will never move Xiaoyue Tower!" ”
Xiao Moxuan thought carefully about Jiang Mei's words, she seemed to be forced to stay in Beijing, if he guessed correctly, this should be Xiao Mocheng's idea, looking at her as a chic and indifferent woman, freedom should be the most important thing to her.
Xiao Mojiao saw Jiang Mei's honest face, so he relaxed his guard against her, "I will definitely agree to the girl's request!" "Some people naturally have the ability to be convincing, and Jiang Mei belongs to this kind of person.
"Okay, dare to ask His Highness what are his plans?" Jiang Mei is colorful.
"The day after tomorrow is my birthday, I want to marry Yiyue on the same day, which can be regarded as double happiness!" Xiao Mojiu's face softened a lot when he mentioned Yiyue.
Jiang Mei nodded, Emperor Xiao would definitely not come to his birthday banquet, he is now under house arrest, and the ministers of the court and the central government are afraid to avoid him, what idea does he want to fight? (To be continued......)
