Just when Meng Tianchu and the others were helpless, suddenly their ears came over and said that someone had asked to meet Meng Tianchu.

Meng Tianchu: "Who is coming?" ”

"Back to the master, the person who came wrapped himself tightly, and the slave couldn't see clearly, only knew that it was a man, and the other party didn't come in through the door, but from the side door."

Meng Tianchu felt strange, Zuo Jiayin: "You might as well go and take a look." ”

Meng Tianchu followed his ears to a gazebo at the side door, and really saw a man wearing a night coat with a huge hat on his head, and a black veil on the hat, some like the mysterious masked knight that Meng Tianchu often saw on TV when he was a child.

Standing aside with a lantern in his ear, the man saw Meng Tianchu coming, and hurriedly bowed down, Meng Tianchu said, "What do you have to say to me?" ”

"Master Meng, can you take a step to speak?"

Meng Tianchu looked at his ears and knew that the person who came was taboo on the side, so he said with a smile: "He is my housekeeper, there is no need to be taboo, if you have something to say, I still have something to do, so I can't accompany him more." ”

"I'm going to talk about Concubine Xian's mother, you see..."

Meng Tianchu listened to it and said, "Then go to my study and talk about it." ”

"No, I can't stay too long, you can just let your butler step back three meters."

Meng Tianchu turned around and waved his hand to the ear, and the ear hurriedly walked away.

"Okay, you can speak."

The man walked up to Meng Tianchu's side. Because it was dark, Meng Tianchu instinctively took a step back, and the man whispered, "I won't hurt you." I have something for you, please allow me to come closer. ”

Meng Tianchu listened, so he didn't retreat any further.

"Lord Meng, please don't let Mrs. Cheng investigate the swing thoroughly."

Meng Tianchu was puzzled and said, "Why? ”

"Because someone has moved the rope on the swing, it has nothing to do with the princess and the princess."

When Meng Tianchu heard this, this person seemed to know a lot, and he was immediately alert. "Who the hell are you?" ”

"I can't tell you who I am, but I'm here to save the princess and the princess, and if the emperor knows that there are traces of knives cutting the ground on the swing, then the princess and the princess won't be able to eat and walk around."

Meng Tianchu was stunned and said, "Traces of knife cuts? ”

"Master Meng, you are an expert in criminal names, if you don't believe it, you can go and see for yourself, although that place has been guarded by Mrs. Cheng, but you can take a look. She shouldn't be in the way. ”

Meng Tianchu: "But no one knew in advance that the Long Live Lord was going to the Governor's Mansion, and even if they did, no one would know in advance which swing Niang Niang was going on... Wait, you mean all the swings on the Doge's Mansion have been tampered with? ”

"Master Meng is really smart, but anyone who knows a little about Niangniang knows her temperament, personality and hobbies."

Meng Tianchu: "You mean that someone deliberately wants to frame Niangniang?" "As for whether she wants to frame Niangniang, I don't know, but now that Niangniang is unconscious, Mrs. Cheng took the opportunity to get rid of the thorn in her eye, but she didn't know if she really did it, not to mention whether she could get rid of the thorn in her eye. Maybe even a fire. ”

Meng Tianchu: "Since you know everything, why don't you go to Mrs. Cheng and tell it, everyone here says it, but she may not be willing to listen." ”

The man chuckled. Said: "If it's convenient for me to go, I'll go naturally, okay, take my leave." After finishing speaking, he was about to leave, Meng Tianchu said: "Please stay, I want to know, why do you want to save the princess and the princess." ”

The man stopped and said, "I am entrusted by someone." Faithful deeds. ”

Meng Tianchu: "Dragged by? ”

"I'm not going to tell you anything. There were only a few hours left, and it was dawn. Mrs. Cheng is about to act, you have to hurry up. ”

Meng Tianchu: "Since the strong man has said so much, can I ask below, can the entrusted person have a good plan?" ”

"The princess has no intention of staying by Guogong's side, in fact, this is a good strategy."

Meng Tianchu frowned and said, "Who are you entrusted with, how do you know everything?" ”

"I think you probably have run out of things and are ready to give it all to the Lord Banzai, but this is the next step."

Meng Tianchu: "What does the strong man think?" ”

"The bell must be tied to the bell."

"What does the strong man mean to let the princess come forward to find Mrs. Cheng in person?"

The man laughed, with approval in his voice.

"Master Meng really understands it at one point."

Meng Tianchu: "But I don't think Mrs. Cheng may believe the princess's words." ”

"Believe it or not, don't do it, don't know it?"

After the man finished speaking, he jumped and disappeared into the night.

Ear hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Master, you don't have anything to do, right?" ”

Meng Tianchu didn't speak, the two of them walked to the bright place, Meng Tianchu suddenly stopped, looked at the ears behind him, and saw that Meng Tianchu's eyes were sharp, and he didn't dare to face them.

Meng Tianchu: "I'll only give you one chance to tell the truth, if you choose not to tell or tell a lie, you will leave now." ”

The ear snorted: "Master, the slave doesn't know what you mean?" ”

Meng Tianchu turned around and left, put a sentence on his ears, and said: "You go, go to the eldest lady and settle the wages and leave, not only to leave, but also to leave Hangzhou Mansion for me, don't let me see you again." ”

Ear was anxious, caught up and walked in front of Meng Tianchu, Meng Tianchu saw that Ear suddenly walked in front of him, and said coldly: "Why, do you know that I don't know how to do kung fu and want to sneak attack me?" ”

"Master, don't dare."

"Then you make way for me."

Kneeling in front of Meng Tianchu with his ears puffed, Meng Tianchu said, "Hugh wants to act for me again." I don't want to know your net worth now, I don't want to know what you want to do in my Meng family, and I don't want to know what you have to do with the masked man of Fang Cai. All you have to do is let me go. ”

Seeing that Meng Tianchu was about to make a detour, Ear grabbed the corner of Meng Tianchu's robe in a hurry, saw Meng Tianchu looking down at himself, hurriedly let go, and said, "Master, ear, please, I said yes, I said yes." Please don't drive me out of the Mon Mansion, I beg you. ”

Meng Tianchu: "I don't have time to listen to you now, and you know what I have to do." ”

Ear: "Then I'll make a long story short, can you see it?" ”

Meng Tianchu finally sat on the armchair in the corridor and said, "Okay, then you can say it." ”

Jiajing suddenly had a missing Xiaowei beside him, he felt like he was missing an arm, and he was in a better mood easily, but suddenly he was unhappy again, sitting in front of the couch by the window and saying that he closed his eyes and recuperated. In fact, he was sulking, and the palace maids and eunuchs on the side didn't even dare to speak out, lest disaster befall him.

"Little Lizi" Jiajing dragged a long tail and called out to Gonggong Li weakly, Gonggong Li hurriedly stepped forward when he heard the sound, bowed down and replied yes, waiting for the order of the Long Live Lord.

"What time is it?"

"Long live the lord, the hour has just set."

"Is there still no news from Mrs. Cheng Ziyidi?"

Gonggong Li thought for a while and said, "Long live Lord, why don't we send someone to ask?" ”

"No, you can take someone to see it yourself. What the hell is going on. ”

Gonggong Li hurriedly responded, and was about to take people out, Jiajing said: "Come out from Cheng Ziyi, no matter what the result is." Go and see Xiao Wei, ask the rain spirit heavenly master Xiao Wei's injury, I originally came to pick her up, but now I can't..."

Seeing Jiajing's very sad appearance, Gonggong Li hurriedly comforted: "Long live Lord, you relax, the mother's kindness will definitely be blessed by God." ”

Jiajing let out a long sigh and said, "I hope so." All right. You go, I'm tired. I want to sleep for a while. ”

Seeing Jiajing close his eyes again, Gonggong Li hurriedly signaled the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs not to make a sound, let Wan Sui Ye sleep well, and tiptoed out of the door by himself.

Doge's Palace

Mrs. Cheng stayed awake all night, she pricked up her ears to listen to the movement outside the door, all night, the door was very quiet, she thought that someone should always come to talk to her, no matter who it was, for example, like Xiaonuo to persuade her, but since Xiaonuo left, no one has come to find her, she was full of confidence to nervous, when the day was about to dawn, she could no longer sit on the bed, after getting out of bed, she stood at the window, looking at the slightly white sky not far away, listening to the barking of dogs and chickens not far away, her expression became more and more gloomy.

What Xiao Nuo said is not wrong, although the purpose of this matter is to catch up with Yan Yunshan, but if the matter is not handled well, Long Live Lord will be angry with Cheng Ziyi, in that case, he will fulfill his own man and that fox spirit, and everyone will die together, but what about himself, the man is gone, will he win or lose this battle?

But Mrs. Cheng is unwilling to raise her hand and surrender like this, such a good opportunity, she must fight, winning or losing is still inconclusive, give up now, I don't know if there will be such an opportunity in the future, besides, Xiaowei is already like this now, she doesn't know whether she is dead or alive, she can't rely on a living dead person to make up her mind for herself, thinking of this, Mrs. Cheng decided to play a game.

Suddenly, there was a very slight sound of footsteps not far away, there was no light in Mrs. Cheng's room, she poked her head out a little and looked out the window, only to see a faint light from far and near, she looked carefully, it was indeed a lantern, then she hurried back to the bed, accidentally tripped the stool in front of the bed, she whispered a sigh, didn't care about the pain, took off her shoes, went to bed and put down the mosquito net.

After a while, someone knocked softly on the door, and Mrs. Cheng nervously covered her chest to calm herself down as soon as possible, she didn't make a sound, pretending to be asleep. Then the knock on the door was louder, and she was hesitating whether to speak, when suddenly the person outside the door sighed softly, as if she was leaving, she quickly got up and said, "Who?" ”

"Madam, I'm Spruce."

Mrs. Cheng first had, and then smiled proudly, she said unhurriedly: "So early, is there anything wrong?" ”

"Spruce has something to say to Madame." Mrs. Cheng deliberately yawned widely. "I haven't woken up yet, if you have anything to say, wait until I wake up." ”

"It's... I have come to bid farewell to Madame, if Madame is inconvenienced. Say goodbye to the spruce. ”

When Mrs. Cheng heard this, she lifted the mosquito net, thinking that she had misheard, and said, "What did you say?" ”

"Resign."

Mrs. Cheng hurriedly got out of bed in leather clothes, didn't even care about wearing shoes, walked to the door and was about to open the door, when she suddenly put her hand down again, and walked to the edge of the bed and sat down lightly. "Where are you going?" ”

"I don't know, but I really want to leave the Governor's Palace."

"Humph!"

"Madame doesn't believe in spruce?"

"How could you be willing to go? How do you make me believe in you? ”

"Spruce has already left a letter to Ziyi's basement, and also left a letter to Long Live Lord, so that Long Live Lord thinks that I am afraid of crime and absconded, and I will not be angry with Ziyi and his wife."

"How could you be so kind?"

"Whatever Madame thinks, Spruce is gone, please don't keep in mind any offends in the past, and take care of your health."

After speaking, Mrs. Cheng heard a sound of footsteps in the distance, and she sat at the head of the bed and waited. Then he quickly ran to the window and looked, there was no one left, and the sky was already slightly bright by this time.

An hour later.

Mrs. Cheng pretended not to know anything and sat in her room, when the housekeeper suddenly ran to the door and knocked on the door, Mrs. Cheng opened the door, and saw the housekeeper panicked, thinking to herself, this Wanyan spruce will not really leave, but there is no expression on her face, and she said lazily: "What is the matter?" ”

Butler: "Ma'am." The second lady is gone! ”

Mrs. Cheng's heart moved, but she said: "I probably went out to ride a horse, what are you anxious about, you are an adult." I know it's back. ”

The housekeeper took out a letter and handed it to Mrs. Cheng, saying, "This is what she wrote to the master, and the master has sent someone to find it." ”

Mrs. Cheng took the letter and looked at it, and sure enough, it was the same as what she said when Yan Yunshan came to find her in the morning, it seemed that this fox spirit was really gone, but as soon as she heard that Cheng Ziyi had sent someone to find it, Mrs. Cheng was angry and threw the letter to the housekeeper. He said angrily, "What are you looking for?" Someone is leaving, how can you possibly find it? ”

The housekeeper knew that Mrs. Cheng had always been at odds with the second lady. I didn't dare to say more, and said, "The master asked me to tell Mrs. you, he went to the long live master." ”

When Mrs. Cheng heard this, she was very surprised, and said, "What is he going to do with the Long Live Lord, is it possible that Yan Spruce will go to the Long Live Lord?" ”

The housekeeper said in frustration: "Master Meng brought a few people last night..."

Mrs. Cheng: "What did Meng Tianchu bring people to do?" ”

Butler: "It is said that it means that the Lord of Long Live means to thoroughly investigate the swings in all the courtyards of the house." ”

Mrs. Cheng laughed when she heard this, and said, "Hmph, I see that he Meng Tianchu has something wrong The housekeeper's face is even more ugly, and when Mrs. Cheng saw that something was wrong, she said, "Did you find anything?" ”

The housekeeper nodded with difficulty and said, "Well, I found that all the swings in the yard have traces of being cut by sharp weapons."

Mrs. Cheng was stunned when she heard this, and said, "What did you say?" ”

Butler: "The master also knows about this matter, and he is very angry, saying that this matter is not aimed at Niangniang, because Niangniang and Long Live Lord are sudden visits, it is impossible to know in advance, so Niangniang just happened to meet, and the real purpose may not be Niangniang, but on the second lady and Guogong." ”

Mrs. Cheng couldn't understand it and said, "What does this mean?" ”

Butler: "Lord Meng asked all the subordinates in the house and knew that except for Concubine Xian, only the second lady liked swinging the most, so..."

When Mrs. Cheng heard this, her brain buzzed, and she hurriedly grabbed the housekeeper and said, "What is it?" ”

Housekeeper: "So the lord thought that someone deliberately attacked the second lady, and now that the second lady is gone, the lord feels that something is wrong, so he went to report to the lord of Banzai." ”

Mrs. Cheng didn't expect things to turn like this, she originally wanted to use this opportunity to eradicate the thorn in her eye, who would have thought that there would be someone who wanted to finish Yan Spruce to die more than me, then this person should be in her own house, because it must take a lot of time to start with every swing, thinking of this, Mrs. Cheng felt that things had become complicated, if someone really wanted to frame Yan Spruce, then at this time Spruce happened to be gone again, would Long Live Lord ..., the more Mrs. Cheng thought about it, the more scared she became, and quickly asked the housekeeper to prepare the carriage, Go after Cheng Ziyi yourself.

Gonggong Li met Cheng Ziyi halfway, and when he saw Cheng Ziyi galloping all the way with Meng Tianchu on horseback, he probably had a few words in his heart, and asked a few words briefly, if it was really related to the swing, he hurriedly turned around and returned to the palace with two people.
