The next afternoon.

Tai Chi Palace.

After the Imperial Palace.

A hundred flowers compete for beauty, and the spikes are fragrant.

Mei Niang sat on the gold-painted chair among the flowers with her eyes closed, but she did not feel a little comfortable, only her eyebrows were deeply locked, and her face was full of worry. After a while, she slowly opened her eyes, slowly got up, slowly walked to the edge of the flowers, and gently stroked the petals of a velvety flower, and was silent.

She has thought of a thousand possibilities, and she has also thought of ten thousand shoulds.

But I never thought that the possibilities and shoulds I thought about would come true one by one and be placed in front of me.

Dazed.

Nature is at a loss.

But in a daze, her heart still reacted as if she was born, quickly calculating every possibility.

Then, she spoke softly and asked the person behind her:

"It seems that Jiro knows."

"Yes."

Minghe sighed, glanced back at the distance behind him, and then said in a low voice: "At least last night, I knew the inside story." And according to the back and forth reports of the people over there, the Lord seems to be deliberately going to kill him this time. ”

"Hands-on."

Mei Niang lowered her eyes, repeated these words expressionlessly, and then said in a deep voice: "Don't do it...... To whom? Vegetarian festival? Or is it gold? ”

Minghe thought for a while, but hesitated: "King Xun has always been a shrewd and really confused person. Most of them are king of Qi...... It's just that the Lord has always said to King Qi that the wind is the rain. This time, there was no big movement, but he was quick to attack King Xun, and I don't know why. ”

"Already done?"

"Yes. This morning, I ordered a strict investigation of the marriage between King Xun and King Qi. also said that if the real result was not found in the two of them, King Liang would be investigated together, and he would also find out. ”

Minghe said softly: "Niangniang, why is this? Such a thing is clearly the king of Qi......"

When he said this, he didn't say much, because Mei Niang's expression already had a hint of melancholy.

"Minghe, have you thought about it, why after so many years, Jiro suddenly remembered that he wanted to make a big Buddha statue for the main palace? And why, Uncle Yuan is so concerned about this matter, and even if he doesn't hesitate to tear it up, he must do it to the end? Even at the expense of killing people in Beijing? ”

Minghe gasped: "Niangniang means, what is going on in the inn ......"

"Except for Uncle Yuan, there is no one to think about."

Mei Niang closed her eyes and asked softly:

"Minghe, what are you saying this is for?"

Minghe was silent for a while before he said:

"Could it be this Buddha statue, what is Yu Niangniang's big concern? Will it displease Uncle Yuan? Otherwise, if you just worry about the cost, you don't have to. ”

"Datang is now in the glory of its national strength, don't say that such a statue is ten, and all of them have been built without much hindrance." Mei Niang said lightly:

"What's more, there are many people who believe in Buddhism in the country now, and doing such a thing will benefit the government and the government. Uncle Yuan himself also understands very well. ”

"Then why ......" Minghe puzzled: "Is it just because this Buddha statue was made for Niangniang?" ”

"That's right. It's just because it's made for Hongu. ”

Mei Niang turned her head to look at him, her eyes were strange: "Because of this, he committed Uncle Yuan's taboo, so he is so anxious and must suppress this matter." ”

Mei Niang paused and said softly: "After all, today's Uncle Yuan is no longer Zhao Guogong back then. Although his prestige in this court is still there, the weight of his power is no longer as good as a day. And among the heirs, the only eldest grandson who can really take over his bones was ruined by himself. So then, the only thing he can believe, the only thing he can trust, the only thing he wants to believe. It's yourself. ”

She sighed, turned her head to look out the window, and continued:

"Now he is no longer the eldest grandson Wuji. As far as he is concerned, there is no one who can be trusted in the Tang Dynasty today. This is true of his own sons, of his grandsons, and of his students. Even Jiro, who he has devoted all his heart to mind......"

After a pause, she hesitated and shook her head:

"No, he's not a believer either.

He doesn't believe that Jiro can govern the country peacefully, and he doesn't believe that Jiro's subordinates can really train any good materials and masters, and they can ensure that my Tang Dynasty will be peaceful forever. He believes in only one thing. ”

Mei Niang squinted her eyes, as if she was extremely tired, and rubbed the back of her neck:

He only believes that at least as long as the palace is eliminated, or the palace loses its ability to discuss politics and the dynasty forever, then the entire Tang Dynasty will be stable. Keep it safe. ”

"What is this?"

Minghe was immediately dissatisfied: "It turns out that my mother has been operating like this all these years, working hard, and serving the country and the people...... In the eyes of Uncle Yuan, it can be seen that it is just a small means to control the government? ”

Gritting his teeth and snorting, he continued:

"I didn't expect Uncle Yuan to be such a chicken-bellied person! Is...... In vain, we used to respect him! Now it seems that he is just an old fool! ”

"That kind of thinking doesn't have to be old and confused."

Mei Niang shook her head slowly, and her eyes gradually changed from cold to sighing:

"If you say he's old and foolish, you're wrong. He is prejudiced against this palace, and it is true that he is often carried away by such prejudice, and he has done many unbelievable things. But this does not mean that he is not a good citizen of the Tang Dynasty, let alone that he is really not a person who is needed by the Tang Dynasty. ”

Minghe blinked: "Niangniang doesn't seem to mind him acting like that?" It's clear that he is with us, but he is looking for trouble with us everywhere......"

"He has never been with one heart and mind, neither this palace, nor you."

Mei Niang threw down such a sentence, then turned around and left, and while walking towards the hall, she said leisurely: "He has always been with one heart, it is the first emperor, the so-called founding merits around him, and the elders of the three dynasties. ”

"He, Yu Jiro, has never forgotten that he is Jiro's elder."

"So he hates Hongu, because of Jiro's own reasons, he often makes him, an elder, look embarrassed. And this time, he didn't even have the opportunity to embarrass him. ”

Mei Niang exhaled slowly, pulled a trace of hair that fell down, and then continued:

"They're obsessed now. So naturally, Jiro can't be tolerated to worship the main palace? ”

"What does Niangniang mean ...... The reason why the Lord built this Buddha statue is to let the people of the world recognize you and not let those people doubt you? You are very careful and careful in everything you do. Can it be ...... Ah......h

Minghe shook his head, and his face was clear. After taking a doll, Mei Niang also smiled faintly.

It doesn't matter, there are many in the world that have to be used. And some people only love spring and snow, and others, but they only like gutter robbery! Just let them rest like this.
