Changan.

After returning to Beijing, Li Bai and others settled in the inn, while Jin Longwei accompanied Meng Yu to the palace to report to Li Shimin everything that happened in the Southern Wilderness.

A few people walked away, and as soon as they walked to the door of the Imperial City, they saw a familiar figure, and the Jinlongwei led by the white fox hurriedly knelt down to their luggage, but Meng Yu was stunned for a moment, and just bowed down to salute.

"Princess, why did you come to the palace? Could it be that you miss Your Majesty a little? ”

Meng Yu was puzzled, he looked at Changle in front of him, then looked at the white fox on the side, and said to them: "You guys go first, I'll say a few words to the princess!" ”

The white fox and the others nodded, and took the first step to report to Li Shimin.

Meng Yu looked at Changle, feeling a little strange, he had been to the Southern Wilderness for half a year, and when he came back, he saw Changle coming into the palace, and he was very puzzled about what this girl was going to do.

Changle looked up at Meng Yu, a little nervous, but her face was cold, and she smiled: "You're back?" It's good to be back! ”

The short seven words seem to stretch the distance between the two very far, for some reason, at this moment, both of them have something to say in their hearts, but it is not easy to say here, so they can only say some polite words.

"Princess, you go back first, I will go to your mansion after I report to Your Majesty, and then you and I will have a good talk, I have some decisions that have been considered for a long time, just need you to agree!"

Meng Yu chuckled, took out the sword in his arms, presented it with both hands, and said very gratefully: "Princess, this peerless sword is too precious, and there is no need for such foreign objects in the future, so I will return it to you, you take it first!" ”

Changle was not hypocritical, hurriedly took it, and said with some self-deprecation: "Don't see you in the past half a year, you have lost a lot of weight, today I asked the maids to prepare some medicinal food for you to replenish." ”

When she said this, she was a little apprehensive, after all, she generally didn't have a good temper towards Meng Yu, and now the two of them spoke peacefully, which made her feel a little uncomfortable, as if she had a lot of separation.

The longer she separated, the more she felt that the feeling with the man in front of her became more and more blurred, although there would still be concerns in her heart, but more uncomfortable, as if everything was not the same as before, at least it was different from what she thought.

Originally, she thought that Meng Yu only belonged to her, but now that she knows too much, she finds out that her concubine originally belonged to three people, Nan Yue'er, Ji Muling, Changle, and even this person has something to do with Fang Yuzhu, Goryeo's Liuli Rusu and other women.

Now that he has come back from chaos, he still speaks so indifferently, which makes Changle a little sad.

"Princess, there is no need for this, I don't need anything like medicinal food now, just cook some meals, and I'll sleep in your mansion tonight."

Meng Yu smiled and hurriedly refused, he thought about it and added: "Of course, I still sleep in the guest room!" ”

Changle smiled, nodded and said, "Listen to the horse!" ”

Then she didn't want to continue dragging Meng Yu, so she got into the carriage alone and walked out of the palace.

Meng Yu turned to look at the carriage in the distance, and sighed, he thought that most of the things had been resolved now, it was nothing more than that the affairs of the Demon Sect and the Thorn Sect had not subsided.

But now he has a headache about Princess Changle and Nan Yue'er, there must be an explanation for this, if he doesn't give them an explanation, he is a little unhuman.

He looked up at the Taiji Palace, slowly walked up the stone steps, and made a report to the guards guarding the door, and then was announced into the main hall.

In the main hall, Jin Longwei was gone, and only a mighty emperor was left sitting on the dragon chair and looking at him calmly, and the emperor's gaze was faint, as if he could pierce him, so that he did not dare to make a mistake.

"See Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live!"

Meng Yu knelt on the ground, and after a long bow, he didn't dare to raise his head, maintained the posture of kowtowing, and waited for Li Shimin's "flat body".

"You're so daring!"

The words were deafening, and the palace maids and eunuchs in the hall were trembling with fright, thinking that the voice was aimed at themselves, their faces were solemn, and they were so cautious that they couldn't even hear the sound of breathing.

And Meng Yu, who was in the center of the main hall, was expressionless, raised his head and said, "How can the minister be so bold!" Your Majesty, the minister has been here for half a year, calming the barbarian turmoil for the Tang Dynasty and intercepting the conspiracy of the Cult of the Evil God, but he has never done anything bold! ”

In fact, he knew in his heart that Li Shimin was talking about that thing, but he didn't want to admit it now, otherwise he would not be able to eat and walk around if he provoked this big-eared thief.

"You ......"

Li Shimin was angry, but he was helpless against Meng Yu, when he saw Meng Yu's fearless appearance, he really didn't know how to scold this stinky boy.

He waved his hand and said, "Your kid sent a letter, and asked Fang Wuji to take the family to the Southern Wilderness City, if he has a different heart in the future, wouldn't it be a disaster?" ”

Although he was a little unhappy in his heart, after all, when Meng Yu came back from this meritorious service, he couldn't lose his temper, so he could only ask and understand the meaning of Meng Yu's doing.

"Your Majesty! Fang Wuji guarded the southern desert city, his people were loyal, I read that he couldn't see his family all the year round, so I wanted you to ask for his life, I thought he wouldn't rebel, if he dared, I could slaughter him all by myself, and then sacrifice my head to Your Majesty! ”

"Your Majesty's mind is nothing more than that I am afraid that I will plot against me and win people's hearts, Your Majesty should not panic, if you don't believe me, I can confiscate the upper bunk under my name, remove the title of Hou Ye, and even the gold medal given by Your Majesty can be withdrawn."

"If Your Majesty still doesn't believe me, I am willing to be imprisoned in Dali Temple for life!"

Meng Yu chuckled and said: "Fang Wuji is not wrong, the fault is me, Your Majesty can punish me, Your Majesty must remember, use people without suspicion, do not use suspicious people, Jiangshan Sheji can be destroyed in a single thought, I am just a chess piece of Your Majesty, but Your Majesty's courtiers, if Your Majesty wants me to die, I won't blink my eyes!" ”

Although he said it so righteously and fearlessly, he was still a little afraid of death in his heart, after all, there was nothing left after death, and he didn't want to let go of Nan Yue'er and them.

Of course, Li Shimin saw the conspiracy of the stinky boy in front of him, and said in a decisive battle: "Okay, okay, Fang Wuji will not rebel, I just feel that the southern wilderness is barren and not as good as Chang'an, so let his old mother and children enjoy happiness in Chang'an, since he misses his family, then let him go!" ”

"You stinky boy is really cheap, if it weren't for the fact that you always take the lead, I really want to kick you!"

Li Shimin is helpless, he really can't bear Meng Yu, whether he is Changle's concubine or a colt for the Tang Dynasty, or because he is the son of an old man, this kid is the person he fancies, how can he be slaughtered.

So he could only sigh and ask again: "You have made meritorious service, what reward do you want?" ”

Meng Yu was stunned, he did have what he wanted, but he had more important things to report.
