Zuo Jiayin: "It's not in the way, you go out first, there are three of us, you can rest assured." ”

Meng Tianchu: "Where can I not worry? ”

Coming out of Xiaowei's room, Meng Tianchu saw Yan Spruce's worried look and said, "Spruce, you seem to have something on your mind?" ”

Wanyan Yunshan reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "Master Meng, I promised you to come back with you, because I don't want you to be embarrassed." ”

Meng Tianchu: "Thank you." ”

Wanyan Spruce: "I don't want you to thank me, what I want to say is..."

Meng Tianchu stopped talking after seeing Yan Yunshan, and said, "Just say what you want to say, if there is anything you need my help with, I will try my best to help you." ”

Wanyan Spruce: "I just wondered if I was wrong. ”

Meng Tianchu felt that it was wrong when he heard this, and after seeing that Yan Yunshan's face was also very bad, he said, "Did the dragon slaying make you angry again?" ”

Wanyan Spruce sighed lightly, glanced up at Meng Tianchu, and said quietly: "If life is only as it was when I first saw it, that's it, that's it." ”

Meng Tianchu: "Actually, slaying the dragon is probably the same contradiction as you, it is naturally good for you to walk together, the love you and I want is the most beautiful, but if you put this relationship in chains, you will be tired, do you understand?" ”

Wanyan Spruce nodded wordlessly, walked a quick step by himself, and walked out of Zuo Jiayin's yard, seeing the dragon slayer standing next to a rockery, looking very lonely, Wanyan Spruce hesitated. Finally walked around, Meng Tianchu saw it, and felt sorry for them in his heart.

Palace.

Wanyan Spruce sat opposite Jiajingdi. seemed a little absent-minded, and after talking about Xiaowei, he was speechless.

Although Jiajing was happy about this incident, he was immediately disappointed when he heard that the imperial doctor said that it was just the instinctive reaction of a comatose person.

"Spruce, why don't you go out for a walk with me?"

Wanyan Spruce got up: "Yes." ”

After Jiajing went out, he came to the back garden, and Jiajing asked Gonggong Li to wait not far away. He walked forward with Wanyan Spruce.

"Spruce, are you complaining?"

"Spruce doesn't dare."

"Guogong treats you badly?"

"Ziyi treats me very well."

"Then I don't understand why you're leaving."

"Spruce, your brother asked you to hand it over to me, although I didn't want you, it's because I think you are happier with the Guild."

"Spruce knows, thank you for your love."

"I want you to be happy, and if you're not happy, I can't explain it to your brother."

"In this way, if you have anything to say to me, I will definitely make the decision for you."

"Hooray..."

Say. But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

Wanyan Spruce suddenly stopped and knelt in front of Jiajing, Jiajing was stunned and leaned over to help, Wanyan Spruce stretched out his hand to block it, and said, "Long live Lord, Rong Xiaonu will finish speaking."

Jiajing saw that there was a stone chair on the side, and he was obese, although it was already afternoon, and the breeze was blowing, he was still tired from standing all the time, so he simply sat down. After listening to Yan Yunshan, he said slowly.

Time passed quietly in Wanyan Spruce's soft words, Jiajing's expression was very indifferent, and from beginning to end, he didn't even change. It wasn't until Wanyan Spruce finished saying the matter that Jiajing sighed and wanted to get up, Wanyan Spruce saw it and quickly got up to help, Jiajing patted the back of Yan Spruce's hand and said: "I also know that the wife of the Duke of Guo is very unreasonable, and she gave you to the Duke of Guo, but she ignored this." It's hard for you. ”

Wanyan Spruce did not speak.

The two men talked as they walked.

Jiajing: "But. Just having a lady who is difficult for you everywhere is not a reason for you to run away. ”

Wanyan Spruce was stunned and said, "Long live the lord." Who else in this family wants to harm me but her? ”

Jiajing smiled slightly and said, "It's just your guess, and I haven't found the truth yet."

Wanyan Spruce: "I'm afraid that if it is really found, the prince may not bring the real culprit to justice." ”

Jiajing looked at Yan Yunshan and said, "You don't want to be in this family, is it just because you don't get along with your wife?" ”

Wanyan Spruce bravely looked at Jiajing, and even showed a smile, and said: "Long live Lord, I also know that in your place, it is normal for all powerful people to have three wives and four concubines."

Jiajing nodded and said, "Since you know, why?" ”

Wanyan Spruce smiled bitterly: "But you forgot, even if they really suffer a big grievance, just like Concubine Xian, she is not happy, she can still come home, but what about me?" ”

After Jiajing heard this, he felt a faint pain in his heart when he thought of Xiao Wei, and Wanyan Yunshan saw it, and quickly said: "I'm sorry, long live the lord, the little girl has no heart..."

Jiajing: "It's not in the way, you're right, but I'm just worried that Guogong may not be willing to let you go, besides, once you go back, what should your brother think?" ”

Wanyan Spruce thought about it and said tentatively: "Long live Lord, I can't help but go back." ”

Jiajing was puzzled and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Wanyan Spruce hurriedly said: "I mean as long as I am given freedom, I don't want to be a thorn in the side of others, I want to be free, do you know?" ”

Jiajing looked at Yan Yunshan and said meaningfully: "If I didn't guess wrong, do you mean that you want to find another good son-in-law and get married?" ”

Wanyan Spruce's heart tightened when he heard this, and he was about to defend himself, Jiajing: "Okay, you don't need to say it, I understand." ”

"Long live the lord, Rong Xiaonu..."

Jiajing waved his hand and said: "You women still know a little bit about their thoughts, not so much that Mrs. Cheng did not give you a comfortable and pleasant living environment, but that the prince did not give you the love and marriage that a man should give you." Is it? ”

Wanyan Spruce didn't dare to speak, Jiajing suddenly laughed a few times, and the Wanyan Spruce on the side was creepy. \\\\\\ don't know what Jiajing sells in his fat belly.

Jiajing: "Spruce, I have something I want to ask you, can you tell me the truth?" ”

Wanyan Spruce saw Jiajing stop and looked at him with a serious face, and quickly nodded.

Jiajing: "What would you do if you found out that you were in love with another man after you married Guogong?" ”

Wanyan Spruce's face changed when he heard this, and he was stunned, and he said for a long time: "The little woman doesn't dare to make such an assumption. ”

Jiajing looked at Wanyan Spruce. Said: "It is said that the heart is wide and the body is fat, you see that my figure should be a person with a wide heart, but if I encounter such a problem, as a man, I can't easily let go." ”

Wanyan Spruce didn't know if Jiajing already knew something, or guessed something from his expression or words, so he didn't dare to say anything, and lowered his head to look at his embroidered shoes.

Suddenly, Jiajing said: "Okay, I have been said to be a stingy and selfish person all my life, this time I should have done a good deed, you just need to tell me." Whoever is in you, I will fulfill you. ”

Wanyan Spruce was stunned as soon as he heard it, and his mind was quickly thinking about whether the Lord Long Live said that he had the intention to deceive himself, and when he was about to hesitate, Jiajing said: "I will only give you a cup of tea time, if you still insist on saying that you are not on good terms with Mrs. Cheng, I can't help you." ”

Wanyan Spruce saw Jiajing walking towards the door, and he had no choice but to follow behind his fat body, wondering if he would tell the truth.

Walking to the door, Jiajing turned his head and looked at Yan Yunshan. Said: "Little Lizi, go and find the Duke of the Kingdom for me, and say that I have something to tell him." ”

Gonggong Li turned around and left, and Jiajing walked in front of Wanyan Yunshan and whispered, "Promise me." Leave the last bit of man's self-esteem for the Duke of Guo, I will let you go, but you will not appear in the place where he stays from now on, can you guarantee me? ”

Wanyan Spruce thought that he was hallucinating and looked up at Jiajing blankly, only to see Jiajing looking at himself with a smile, and said, "But..."

Jiajing said in a low voice: "But you still have to promise me one thing, that is, in order to prevent your brother from making trouble for me, you must give me your brother's job." Do you understand? ”

Only then did Yan Spruce react. Knowing that Jiajing didn't lie to himself, he quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to thank him. Jiajing: "Alas... Get up. ”

The day before Jiajing left, he summoned Meng Tianchu.

On the edge of the West Lake in Hangzhou, where they first looked at each other, Jiajing looked at a pink lotus pond, and a gust of wind blew through and could vaguely smell a faint fragrance.

"Tianchu, if I leave tomorrow, I have no intention of coming back, I mean in my lifetime."

Meng Tianchu had never seen this emperor so sad, he had never seen him called Tianchu, and he had never seen him so lonely.

Meng Tianchu: "Long live you, don't you like Jiangnan the most?" Why not come? ”

Jiajing smiled indifferently, and even stretched out his fat hand and patted Meng Tianchu's shoulder gently, saying, "I am not a mortal person, and I will leave after all." And you are all mortal people, and it is also natural to return to mortal dust. ”

Meng Tianchu was inexplicable when he heard it, thinking that this emperor had been poisoned by something, and was about to speak, Jiajing said: "Recently, after I finished eating the master's hair, I listened to Xiaowei and Yuling Tianshi's words and was eating the herb you prepared for me, and after eating, my heart was much calmer, and I also thought about it a lot. ”

When Meng Tianchu heard this, his eyes widened, and he stared at Jiajing in front of him in a daze, no wonder he spoke strangely, when did he start eating opium? If this is to let future generations know that this emperor is not only not doing his job, but also contaminated with pornography, gambling and drugs, and the most fatal one of them is actually related to himself, wouldn't he be stinking for 10,000 years? Thinking of this, Meng Tianchu hurriedly said: "Long live Lord, that Wei Weichen thought it was better not to eat it." ”

Jiajing smiled and said, "Yuling Heavenly Master told me, it's not in the way, isn't it just that if you eat it, you will be addicted, you can't quit, and you can't do without this kind of herb for the rest of your life?" Tianchu, you and the Rain Spirit Heavenly Master are both sincere people, and the reason why I believe in you is that I know that you will not harm me. Don't worry, I'm older than any of you, and you just have to offer it to me. Am I afraid that I won't be able to eat this kind of herb in my lifetime? ”

When Meng Tianchu heard this, he was about to fight, but Jiajing waved his hand to signal that he didn't have to continue. Pointing to a leaf boat in the distance, he sighed: "Life is short, but for a few decades, you see that leaf boat and you and I have the same fate, I don't know when a storm will come and sink to the bottom of the lake, and life is the same." ”

Meng Tianchu didn't know what to say, Jiajing continued: "Tianchu. I'm leaving, and I'll leave Xiaowei in your care. ”

Meng Tianchu was frightened, and was about to speak, Jiajing: "After you listen to me, I also promised Yan Yunshan, no matter who she falls in love with, as long as it is not the family and old acquaintances of the country, I will also give her freedom." ”

Meng Tianchu was puzzled and said, "Long live Lord, you are..."

Jiajing: "I'm not crazy. I just figured it out, you know? Xiao Wei didn't want to go with me, since this was the case, I fulfilled her, and when I went back, I told the world that Concubine Xian Niangniang died violently in Jiangnan. ”

Meng Tianchu didn't know if what Jiajing said was true or false, whether he was testing himself, so he didn't dare to speak easily, lest he fall into the trap set by this cunning fox for himself.

Jiajing: "However, I also hope that you can grant me a request." ”

Meng Tianchu hurriedly said, "Long live Lord, please speak." ”

Jiajing: "Resign and go into hiding." Are you willing? ”

Meng Tianchu: "Weichen never dared to touch Niangniang's thoughts. ”

Jiajing smiled slightly, and said, "It's not up to you to dare or not, what I'm asking now is whether you are willing to return to the mountains and forests and not be this prefect." Rather, be an idler. ”

Meng Tianchu: "Weichen has always wanted to be an idler. ”

Jiajing smiled and said, "However, you still have to supply my herbs, I heard that the Rain Spirit Heavenly Master said that this kind of herbs is only suitable for cultivation in Hangzhou, so I allow you to continue to live in Hangzhou, but because of Xiaoweidi's identity, so..."

Meng Tianchu finally believed that this emperor Lao'er was telling the truth, so he hurriedly said: "Weichen understands. Wechen knew what to do. ”

Jiajing: "Okay. It's not for nothing that I've come this time, Tianchu. In the future, you will be an unofficial idler, are you really willing to do this? ”

Meng Tianchu smiled with relief and said, "I believe that there will be more outstanding people in the seats." ”

Jiajing smiled and said: "I really can't bear an official like you, not greedy and greedy, it's the rarest, so let's do it, since I can't bear you, you are so upright and kind, it's better to..."

Meng Tianchu hurriedly said: "Please also ask the Lord of Long Live not to withdraw his fate, but to fulfill Weichen." ”

Jiajing laughed and said: "Others are afraid that they won't do it, you are afraid that you will be an official, you are really a weird person, but I have made up my mind, Guogong will go back to Beijing within a month, this Hangzhou really has no one I can trust, do you know Chen Zongkui?" ”

Meng Tianchu had heard of this person, who was once the deputy envoy of Zhejiang, the middle of the matter, and the imperial governor of Fujian and Guangdong. He nodded.

Jiajing said: "Now that the internal affairs of the imperial court are becoming more and more corrupt, the coastal guards are empty, the armaments are slack, and the Japanese are gradually rampant. ”

Meng Tianchu: Weichen knows a little bit about it.

Jiajing looked around and said, "Although you are happy to be an idler, I am not willing to let a courtier who even my woman dare to ask for to enjoy the blessings like this, so I will give you the same task as Chen Zongkui." ”

When Meng Tianchu heard this, he was stunned and said, "Long live Lord, where does Weichen dare to compare with Lord Chen and General Chen?" ”

Jiajing: "The matter is man-made, Meng Tianchu listens to the order." ”

Meng Tianchu saw that Jiajing was really moving, and quickly knelt down.

Jiajing: "Youqing Meng Tianchu, during his tenure in Hangzhou Mansion, he was alive and watered, which was really comforting to the hearts of the widows. Its list of eight prefectures patrol, this. ”

Meng Tianchu listened, and quickly bowed his head to thank him.

Jiajing: "Meng Tianchu, do you feel wronged by you?" ”

Meng Tianchu hurriedly said: "Weichen doesn't dare. ”

Jiajing: "I also know that you were allowed to go from a fourth-grade prefect to a fifth-grade eight-rank governor, do you blame me for being a personal vendetta?" ”

Meng Tianchu thought that it was a three-level downgrade, who would have thought that it was just one level, but now the emperor Lao'er did not let himself abdicate, but he made such a position that seemed to be a small official position, but in fact, it made the prefect even more afraid of a few points to himself, it seems that he really doesn't want to let himself abdicate.

Meng Tianchu: "Weichen is already grateful. ”

Jiajing bent down and helped Meng Tianchu up personally, and said: "I have already learned a thing or two from Guogong about Jian Qi and many other officials in Hangzhou and other officials, you quickly check it out to me, as a last resort..."

Jiajing thought for a while, motioned to Gonggong Li to come over, and said, "Give Meng Tianchu Shangfang a sword, which can be cut first and then played." ”

When Meng Tianchu heard this, he thought he was dreaming, Shang Fang Sword, such a majestic thing Long Live Lord would actually give it to himself?
