"If you think my mind will change just because you've been kneeling like this, then you'll keep kneeling."
Ruthlessness is him, and moving is also him.
"Your Majesty ......" Seeing Xia Zheng's unmoved appearance, Jiang Mei's eyes dimmed slightly.
Since you came here, you are just a passerby, why do you have to give birth to so much involvement.
***
In fact, Jiang Mei didn't hold on for a long time, not because she didn't want to persevere, but because she felt that it was a senseless battle. The most important thing now is to find out what happened to Xia Zheng, she found Ah Xiu, and she went back to her residence to deal with the hunting defense.
When she first took over Dongchang, Jiang Mei didn't realize how crucial the organization Dongchang really wasβin the long history of a dynasty's rule, but as time went by, she learned more and more about Dongchang, and she slowly discovered why Xia Zheng's eldest grandson Xun was so careful to get Dongchang.
The spies of Dongchang are all over the people, or they walk in disguise as warlocks in the rivers and lakes, probing all kinds of news on the rivers and lakes, or they are dressed up as ordinary people, running around the people, and collecting all kinds of official handles.
In other words, Dongchang's intelligence is enough to destroy a huge political group.
Putting aside the matter of Xia Zheng in her mind for the time being, Jiang Mei was more worried about the words that Zhuo Wangsun came to remind her that day, but the words that concealed the crisis information were huge. There are many guards with knives in the brocade guards, but some very good spies are also extremely well-informed. In addition, the Qingyuan Chronicle had already predicted, Jiang Mei had to believe it.
Thinking of the Qingyuan Chronicle, Jiang Mei couldn't help but feel annoyed, why did he leave the Qingyuan Chronicle in the palace. When will this careless bad fault be changed?
"Overseer, Lord Heβ"
The little eunuch lowered his eyebrows and reported through the door, but Jiang Mei hurriedly sat up from the couch.
Congratulations? The one who dared to scold and ridicule Xia Zheng at the banquet?
Jiang Mei squinted her eyes slightly, the corners of her mouth hooked up a sly smile, she got up and unhurriedly straightened her clothes in front of the bronze mirror.
"Please come to the main hall and speak." Jiang Mei stepped out of the door without hurrying.
At this time, it was noon, the June sun was dazzling and fierce, Jiang Mei stretched out his hand, slightly blocking the dazzling and scorching sun, and saw He Song walking in from outside the courtyard gate in a hurry, and the two of them took a look.
"Since there is such a fate between you and Lord He, let's go into the room together." Jiang Mei had a smile on her face, gentle and polite. The attitude towards He Song is very polite.
But who knows, He Song, who came to the door by himself, seemed to be very disdainful of Jiang Mei's set, and nodded at Jiang Mei with a stiff face, which was regarded as a hello. His attitude made Jiang Mei wonder the purpose of his visit today.
The two walked into the main hall side by side, and the palace people retreated and closed the door, leaving only the two people whose atmosphere seemed to be awkward.
"Why did Lord He come to our house today?"
He Song's face was red, and it seemed that he had come over after drinking, and Jiang Mei was very suspicious that he had come to find fault.
"Governor Jiang, this official is here today to make a compensatory deal with Governor Jiang." He Song's face softened, and he exhaled slightly, with an extremely unnatural look on his face, as if he was very reluctant to say this.
Jiang Mei didn't care about his awkwardness at all, and said with a smile: "Our family doesn't remember any holidays with Lord He, so Lord He doesn't have to take it to heart." β
Jiang Mei observed He Song's expression as he spoke, and He Song raised his eyebrows and replied, "Since Lord Jiang said so, I won't say anything more." β
After He Song finished speaking, he stood up, faced Jiang Mei, spread his palms, and said with a thin smell of wine: "Master Jiang, this key is a little bit of the official's heart." This official has already purchased a mansion for Lord Jiang in the most prosperous place in the imperial city. It is also good to let Master Jiang know that this official is sincerely reconciled today. β
He Song's appearance today is really strange, although Jiang Mei can't guess what he wants to do, but he also knows the truth of not moving.
"Don't Lord He know who our family is?" Jiang Mei's words seemed to be smiling rather than laughing.
"This official naturally knows, but, doesn't Lord Jiang want to have his own place sooner?"
He Song seemed to know very well what was going on in people's hearts, and then said: "You and I both know the emperor's character, cunning and unpredictable, and his temper is uncertain. β
Jiang Mei understood the meaning of He Song's words, and wanted her to secretly prepare the money for running away in the future with Xia Zheng behind her back.
"Actually, it's not like our family hasn't thought about it. Companions are like tigers, especially the emperor, to tell the truth with Lord He, if it weren't for the handle in the hands of the emperor, our family would not be at the mercy of the emperor. β
Jiang Mei pretended to sigh and sigh, so that He Songxin would think it was true.
Jiang Mei quietly put her hand on He Song's palm and took the key away, with a knowing smile on her face, but in fact, her stomach was full of contempt for an opportunistic person like He Song.
Seeing that Jiang Mei accepted the key as he wished, He Song couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips, and when he saw that the purpose of today's trip had been achieved, he got up and hurriedly said goodbye.
"What the hell." Jiang Mei played with the key in her hand, and she didn't know what Xia Zheng's expression would be after she knew about it.
Thinking of Xia Zheng, Jiang Mei's smile froze on her face.
In the past, I didn't know what I would encounter when I crossed over, but after understanding that I was careful about Xia Zheng, Jiang Mei didn't want Xia Zheng to have any accidents. Now Xia Zheng's attitude towards her is like seeing flowers in a fog, and all she can do now is to do her best to protect Xia Zheng.
A long, long time later, Jiang Mei remembered himself at this time, smiled at the tired man next to him, and gave him a big hug, but didn't say anything.
***
The next day, the sky was still bright, but all the people and horses were already ready to set out and gather in the hunting place of the palace.
Jiang Mei rode a horse behind Xia Zheng according to the prior deployment, Xia Zheng's horse was the most sophisticated horse in the entire palace, and Mu Liangwei had already sent someone to check the horse's body before the trip, so as to avoid accidents caused by someone hiding needles in the horse's palm.
Jiang Mei looked at the tall and condensed back of the man in front of her, she didn't know what she was thinking, she was a little distracted, but she was recalled by the whispered shouting.
"Jiang Mei-" Xia Wusi's dress today is very eye-catching, wearing a white riding suit, coupled with a tall figure, he is heroic and beautiful in the crowd.
Jiang Mei waved at Xia Wusi, and the two of them looked at each other, and they both smiled understandingly.
Xia Zheng seemed to hear the voices of the two, and tilted his head slightly to Xia Wusi's side, and Xia Wusi quickly withdrew his smile.
