There are six or seven hundred guards in the palace, belonging to five teams, although they all belong to the sword and halberd battalion, but they perform their own duties, and they rarely interact with each other, Wang He does not know the guards surnamed Meng, but the other party can accurately say some code words in the palace, and now he has to believe it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Han Ruzi was shocked and was about to ask, when the King of the East China Sea stepped forward and said, "Is it a man or a woman?" ”

"Dressed in men's clothes, it looks like a woman." Wang He observed carefully.

"It's her, what's her name? Meng E, she suddenly appeared, Your Majesty has to be careful. ”

The loach ran from the group of eunuchs to the emperor's side, "Meng E? Wasn't she the one who took the treasure seal? ”

At the beginning, Meng E connected with the soldiers in Nancheng, and took the treasure seal under Cai Xinghai's arrangement, which was supposed to be sent directly to the emperor, but he disappeared halfway, delaying a lot of things. Cai Xinghai regretted it, and the soldiers of the trilogy also thought she was a traitor, and Loach was indignant when she heard the name.

The King of the East China Sea didn't know the twists and turns, but he understood as soon as he heard it, "I'll just say that she has a problem, and the death of the great general Han Xing is inseparable from her, right?" ”

Han Ruzi really couldn't defend Meng E, the assassin who assassinated Han Xing was said to be a man, but the time coincided with Meng E's escape to Hangu Pass, and he was holding the Taizu sword, nine times out of ten he was a person from the palace, maybe Meng E's brother Meng Che, or one of the guards they took away.

"Bring her to me." Han Ruzi still wanted to hear what Meng E herself had to say.

But he is no longer a tired marquis, but the emperor of Great Chu, the supreme status, occasionally there are times when no one obeys when he speaks, Wang Hepburn is only a little uncertain, listening to the king of the East China Sea and the loach, he is also worried, standing in place and not moving, this is different from visiting Luoyang outside the city at night, the credibility of the ugly king is much higher than the guards who go and return.

Han Ruzi was about to give another order, but the people around him, from the guards to the eunuchs, suddenly knelt down, and the guards on the periphery also leaned closer, as if they were facing a great enemy.

"What do you mean?" Han Ruzi asked in surprise.

Wang He said: "Your Majesty can't be in danger, let me ask clearly." ”

"She won't say it to you." Han Ruzi said.

"I'll go." Cui Teng volunteered, not knowing who Meng E was, "It's just a female guard, uh, Your Majesty, she's just a female guard, right?" If there is something else...... Uh-huh, it's better to give me a hint first. ”

Han Ruzi said to the king of the East China Sea, "You go, and then take her to Yali to see me." ”

The emperor naturally wanted to live in the most heavily guarded place in Pengcheng, the back house of the yamen had been vacated, Pengcheng ordered him to move elsewhere, and most of the objects in the room were given by Luoyang Marquis Han Chou, Liu Jie did everything possible to make the emperor live more comfortably.

Han Ruzi didn't notice the difference, only felt that the guards in the courtyard had increased significantly, and Liu Jie personally went out to greet the emperor, and never left an inch.

"Meng E used to be really a guard in the palace, first to protect the Queen Mother, and then to leave the palace with me, so she can be trusted." Han Ruzi felt that the people around her had overreacted.

"Your Majesty's personal expedition, this place is a stone's throw away from the East China Sea Kingdom, so you must guard against it." Liu Jie was in charge of the guards, and he knew that he had a great responsibility, so he didn't dare to be sloppy, "The more acquaintances you have, the more you have to beware, Meng E is likely to understand Your Majesty's habits, and she stabbed halfway, and accidentally fell, so she changed her mind and wanted to meet Your Majesty." ”

Han Ruzi smiled and shook his head, "Gong Liu hasn't seen her, has he?" She's ......"

"Yes." Liu Jie said with a serious expression, "Meng E and Meng Che are both guards brought by the Queen Mother from the East China Sea, not selected from the palace, we have long felt that the origin is suspicious, and we have secretly done an investigation, and found that the Meng brothers and sisters are the descendants of the late Qi King Chen Lun, but the Queen Mother still believes them." ”

Han Ruzi was shocked again, but he didn't expect that Meng E's origin had already been exposed, "You guys? ”

"I am with Jing Yao, the former supervisor of the Central Division, and Jing Gong is very good at gathering intelligence." Liu Jie didn't really care about this trivial matter, and continued: "The rebels have already played the banner of King Qi, and Meng E must have different intentions when he comes to see His Majesty at this time. ”

"Send more guards, I still have to see her, some things have to be asked face to face."

Liu Jie wanted to raise another objection, Han Ruzi waved his hand, "Do your part well, and I will decide the rest." ”

Liu Jie didn't dare to open his mouth anymore, and conveyed many orders to the eunuchs around him.

Ten guards guarded the emperor, and the other twenty were scattered outside the house, and a large number of guards closed the entire street outside the yamen.

Zhang Youcai, Loach and others stood on both sides of the emperor, ready to block the sword for the emperor at any time.

Cui Teng stood closest to the emperor, nervous and excited, "Female guards are rare, is she very powerful?" How many can one hit? Your Majesty, rest assured, with me here, even flies don't want to get closer. Your Majesty, dare to ask, is the female guard beautiful? ”

Han Ruzi ignored him and looked down at a copy of the piece sent by the capital.

The King of the East China Sea soon returned, "It's indeed Meng E, but she won't tell me anything, does Your Majesty want to see her?" ”

Han Ruzi handed the chapter to Zhang Youcai on the side, "Call Meng E in." ”

The summons was not the responsibility of the King of the East China Sea, he stood aside, looked at the formation in the room, slowly moved closer to the emperor, and quickly squeezed to Cui Teng's side, making his eyes make Cui Teng give up his position.

Cui Teng refused, looked back angrily, the two of you stare at me and I stare at you, stalemate for a while, the king of the East China Sea was defeated, he could only sigh lightly in his heart, once he lost power, even Cui Er dared to bully himself.

Meng E came, two guards in front of him, four behind him, walked a few steps into the door, the guards who led the way stopped, and then gave way to both sides, sandwiching Meng E in the middle, more than ten steps away from the emperor, the lights were dim, and the two could only barely see each other's faces.

Sure enough, it was Meng E herself, her appearance had not changed much, especially the extremely indifferent eyes, dressed in men's clothes, did not kneel, clasped her fists like a man, and said, "Guard Meng E, meet Your Majesty." ”

Cui Teng let out a sigh of disappointment, it turned out that the female guard was really just a guard, although she was not ugly, she was not a beauty, and a veteran flower picker like him was not interested at all.

"Hmm." In front of outsiders, Han Ruzi had to maintain his majesty, "What do you have to explain?" ”

Meng E shook her head, "I'm not here to explain, but to remind Your Majesty not to waste time in Pengcheng, and to go north immediately, maybe it's still too late." ”

"In time, what?"

"It's too late to stop the Hun army outside the Great Wall."

Han Ruzi was startled, and suddenly stood up from the soft chair, "Huns? ”

Meng E was about to continue, the king of the East China Sea stepped forward, faced the emperor, and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the general Cui Hong gets news from the northern Xinjiang every day, and has never heard of abnormal behavior of the Huns. ”

Han Ruzi nodded and sat down again.

The King of the East Sea turned around, took a few steps forward, and said with a smile: "Meng E, you didn't want to answer my question just now, but now in front of Your Majesty, can you answer it?" ”

Meng E also nodded.

"Where have you been all these days?"

"I traveled east from the capital, first to Hangu Pass, then to Luoyang, and then to participate in the uprising in the East China Sea, arrived in Linzi City a few days ago, and finally came to Pengcheng to see Your Majesty."

"Involved in the uprising? You joined the rebels? ”

"The people on Yishi Island can't wait, and they want to start an incident in advance, so my brother and I went to persuade them to give up their plans."

"The result?"

Meng E was silent for a moment, "They didn't listen to the persuasion and dragged my brother into the gang." Meng E's gaze swept over the King of the East China Sea and looked at the emperor, "It's not important, the key is the Huns' ......"

"Don't worry, I'll ask the Huns soon." The King of the East Sea took two more steps forward, blocking Meng E's gaze, "What are the rebels' plans for next?" ”

"Wait for the Huns to enter the customs, and divide the Great Chu together."

The smile on the face of the king of the East China Sea disappeared suddenly, and he originally wanted to ask a little more about the movements of the rebels, but at this time he could only turn to the Huns, "The rebels colluded with the Huns?" How big is Yishi Island for the Huns to join forces with you? ”

"The intermediary said that the one who joined forces was the Buyeo State, and the Fuyu King and Yishi Island guaranteed to be able to occupy the land of Qilu and attract more than 100,000 Chu troops, and the Huns took the opportunity to enter the pass, and the Buyeo State would also send troops to attack Liaodong."

The King of the East China Sea was incredulous, and was about to open his mouth to ask, when Meng E said loudly: "Your Majesty, think about it, the rebels can't defend the city, are they waiting for death?" Without a big backer behind them, how dare Yishi Island and Buyeo Kingdom start an incident at this time? ”

The King of the East China Sea sneered, "Maybe Yishi Island and Buyeo Kingdom are very sure that Great Chu is going to fall into chaos again, Meng E, if you don't go back sooner or later, you came to see Your Majesty when the Chu army surrounded the rebel regiments and was preparing for a big attack, I'm afraid it's not a coincidence, right?" ”

If the emperor is assassinated, the rebels still have the possibility of breaking through the encirclement or even turning defeat into victory.

"I will only say it to Your Majesty alone." Meng E said coldly.

The king of the East China Sea turned around and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I suggest that Meng E be temporarily detained in the army first, and then send people to the northern frontier to check the movements of the Huns. And there have always been rumors that the Xiongnu are going south, not necessarily in collusion with the rebels, and the rebels may be a fox and a fake tiger, trying to lure the Chu army away. ”

Meng E and the King of the East China Sea each have their own reasons, and Han Ruzi can't decide, "You retreat first, Meng E stays, and I ......"

Before he finished speaking, the eunuch and the guard all knelt down again, and they all felt that this female guard had a special identity, and it was too dangerous to appear at this time.

Meng E said flatly: "Your Majesty will detain me first, whether my words are true or false, I can't fight for results, and the facts will prove everything." ”

"You go and rest first." Han Ruzi couldn't use his stubbornness to disobey the loyalty of a group of people, and said to Liu Jie: "Sending someone to serve her is not a detention, understand?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Liu Jie got up, retreated to the door, and motioned for Meng E to go with him.

Meng E said to the emperor: "The army is in chaos, Your Majesty should stop practicing." ”

Han Ruzi was stunned for a moment, others thought that Meng E was persuading the emperor to pay attention to his body, but he understood that Meng E was telling him to stop practicing internal strength.

Liu Jie and Meng E left, and the King of the East China Sea walked up to the emperor and spoke sideways, just squeezing Cui Teng away, "Your Majesty, this matter is too suspicious, Meng E is probably not alone, it is necessary to conduct a big search in Pengcheng." ”

"Well, General Cui Hong." Compared with the big search in the city, Han Ruzi was more concerned about the Huns in the north, and as for stopping the practice, he felt strange, but he didn't particularly care. (To be continued.) )
