Chapter 639: The Beginning of the Clouds and the Sunsink Pavilion (50)
Su Ming and the others all felt quite lucky, only Meng Fusheng felt that it was too strange for them to leave so naturally, if the mysterious person wanted to hold them back when Ji Jingsheng came, it would not be impossible, but no, he seemed to be watching them leave from the sidelines.
He really couldn't understand the mysterious man's approach.
Meng Fusheng returned to the Prince's Mansion after re-disfigurement, and went to see Du Yueyan the next morning in the name of delivering breakfast, she looked quite aggrieved, and her moist eyes seemed to be able to speak, telling him about his unhappiness, which made Meng Fusheng very guilty.
He explained: "It was me who was wrong the other day, and I was busy doing other things and didn't come to see you. β
Meng Fusheng apologized, and Du Yueyan didn't hold on to this matter, but wondered: "What is it?" β
Meng Fusheng didn't want to tell her, for fear that she would be worried, so he diverted the topic, "Don't you want to eat the rose crisp and chestnut crisp outside?" Shall I go out and buy it for you tonight? β
As soon as these words came out, Du Yueyan knew that he was reluctant to tell herself, although she was worried, she didn't force an answer, she nodded with a smile, "Well, I really want to eat it, and I don't know that the taste here is different from ours." β
Meng Fusheng smiled dotingly and nodded the tip of her nose, "You glutton, I'll buy it back for you tonight." β
The two happily began to talk about other things, but Meng Fusheng couldn't stay, and left after a while, leaving Du Yueyan alone to reluctantly open the window and watch him go away, looking forward to meeting in the evening.
In the evening, Meng Fusheng wrote down the snacks that Du Yueyan wanted to buy, and left the Prince's Mansion, but as soon as he pretended to walk to a place with few people, he saw a mysterious person who had been waiting for an unknown amount of time.
Meng Fusheng immediately put the snack into his arms, held the hilt of the sword, and looked at him vigilantly.
The mysterious man slowly approached Meng Fusheng, he didn't put on his cloak at this time, his expression was leisurely, "Why be so nervous, I didn't have the slightest malice here." β
Meng Fusheng didn't even believe half of his words, he just distanced the two of them and asked coldly, "What are you going to do?" β
The mysterious man laughed, and his laughter was very hearty, and even attracted the attention of many people, but he didn't take it seriously.
just grabbed Meng Fusheng's shoulder with lightning speed, saw that Meng Fusheng was nervous and pinched, and said with a smile: "If I really want to kill you, do you think you can run away last night?" β
Meng Fusheng was stunned, his expression complicated, "Do you want to say that you deliberately let us go last night?" Do you think I'll believe it? β
"Believe it or not, I can see that I am old." The mysterious man let go of him and spread his hands, "If you don't believe me, you'll do it to me." Besides, you and that guy couldn't beat me last night, and if I wanted to keep you for a while, do you think you could really run away? Young people should not be naΓ―ve. β
Meng Fusheng had already believed it in his heart, but he still didn't move, "The two of us don't have any friendship, how do you want me to believe it?" β
The mysterious man shook his head, "You may already know that I have an old relationship with your father, but you don't know that I used to be friends with him. We went to serve in the army together, but I was seriously wounded and sent back to the Imperial City for treatment, and I have not been on the battlefield since, but my relationship with your father has never been estranged. He once wanted to joke with me that if something happened to him, let me take care of the Anyang Palace, but I didn't expect that our Wu family didn't last long, not because of the anti-thieves, but by the royal family who has been loyal to the Wu family for several generations, which is really ridiculous. Oh, far away, your father always called me Brother Jinyuan, Wu Jinyuan. If you want, you can call me uncle. β
Meng Fusheng glanced at him deeply, his eyes were full of inquiry, but his mouth was tightly closed, and he didn't have the slightest desire to speak.
Wu Jinyuan let out a long sigh, and didn't force him, but said regretfully: "It seems that I don't have this blessing anymore." β
Meng Fusheng looked at him indifferently, as if he wanted to see his filthy heart through this person's self-righteous appearance.
Wu Jinyuan just let him look at it so frankly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but the smile didn't enter his eyes, he was like a real elder, and said: "If you can, I hope you still don't get involved, I'm for your good, as long as you stay in Liuyun Villa." Nothing will affect you, until the day when the dust settles, everyone will be happy. β
Meng Fusheng seemed to suddenly relax at this time, sighed, and said softly: "I believe you, but now the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there are few traitors in the court, so it is not far better than when the previous dynasty was in the past?" In that case, why do you still want to restore the country and let the people suffer from war again? β
"You know what!" Wu Jinyuan suddenly became excited, his face was also a little hideous, and his voice was vicious, "That traitor killed my family back then, my lover died in that war, and many friends and family members also died because of it, so I planned this, I will never give up!" β
Meng Fusheng was frightened by the surging hatred in his eyes.
Wu Jinyuan had calmed down at this time, he seemed to be explaining a fact, and his tone was steady, "So I told myself, I must climb to the highest position, become a human being, and step on the top of everyone's heads, so that all the people I want to protect will not be harmed in any way, so that it is really powerful." Do you understand? β
Meng Fusheng shook his head, "You should not blame the current emperor, but the former emperor of the faint dynasty, isn't everything caused by him?" Even if there is no man-made rebellion, sooner or later the former dynasty will be completely decayed. And before the overthrow of the previous dynasty, didn't your Wu family also suffer from suppression everywhere? β
Wu Jinyuan smiled without any warmth, that smile was like an arc that someone had drawn on a blank piece of paper, just an arc, without any meaning, "Yes, that's also because our Wu family is too loyal, and we don't have the ability to destroy that desolate emperor, so we ended up like this." So as long as I wait until I become the emperor, who else can bully our Wu family? To achieve this, I can sacrifice anything. I have repeatedly thought of letting you go in my dealings with King Anyang, but if you continue to be obsessed and block my way, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people, and I will personally apologize to King Anyang when the time comes. β
After leaving this sentence, Wu Jinyuan turned around and left, Meng Fusheng thought about it, walked in the direction of the prince's mansion, and when he walked to the door, he remembered that he was disguised, but Wu Jinyuan was not a little surprised, it seemed that he had already recognized himself.
Really, how wise and almost demonic.
