"Father-in-law Meng doesn't need to think about it...... It's just that I can't get used to the domineering state of the high arch. ”

The Qianqing Palace was suddenly much quieter again, and the warm wind of spring blew on this delicate and moving woman, which seemed so soft, as if she was afraid of hurting her green and jade hands.

Meng Chong couldn't help but glance at this woman again, but he was not moved, after all, he didn't have this ability, but he still took a look at it, and then sighed: "Who introduced Miss Wu to the palace?" ”

Miss Wu obviously didn't expect Meng Chong to ask about this, and hesitated for a while before she said softly: "Doesn't my father-in-law know that the Ming Dynasty had good relations with Japan last year...... I was brought to the Imperial Palace by Nobunaga Oda Nobunaga. ”

Meng Chong suddenly showed a strange smile, glanced at Miss Wu meaningfully, and said with a light smile: "That girl's words are not bad...... is no stranger to the rules of the palace. ”

Miss Wu's eyes were suddenly scattered, as if she was a little nervous, her hand pinching the corner of her clothes was much tighter, and she was silent for a long time before she said, "I studied in the Daimyo Mansion a few years ago...... After coming to Daming for a year, I have also grown a lot. ”

Meng Chong groaned lightly, and only after a moment did he show a kind face again, and said lightly: "Miss Wu seems to be a little nervous today...... Could it be the reason for the minion? ”

The title of slave can be described as extremely lowly, and most of the eunuchs in the palace call themselves. It's just that with a eunuch like Meng Chong, except for the emperor and some of the stronger concubines in the harem, the people next to him would not be like this.

At this time, although he called himself a slave, he obviously did not have that awe in his eyes, and the respect he should have.

After all, as the master of ceremonies, the woman in front of her is just a woman favored by His Majesty, but she doesn't have any substantive ability, so it's okay to give her enough face.

Miss Wu naturally knows her current identity very well, who can offend and who can't offend the people in the palace, she is very clear, if the eunuch in front of her is in charge of the seal, she must not offend.

So much so that entering the palace these days. She had never used her own favor to gossip in His Majesty's ear, for she knew very well what she was here for.

"Nope." Miss Wu shook her head again and again, and only after a moment did she whisper: "When I came back from going out today, I heard Gao Ge Lao talking when I passed by Wu Ying Palace...... Seems to be about ...... About Gonggong Meng. ”

"About the minions?" Meng Chong's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said curiously: "What about the minions?" ”

Miss Wu suddenly looked embarrassed. whispered, "This...... I won't say much about that...... All in all......"

"Why hasn't Your Majesty come here today......" Meng Chong looked around and saw that there was no one left and right. Then he whispered: "The reason why Miss Wu can't be admitted to the concubine is because those civil officials in the court gossip and think that you are a widow...... It's not that hard to do......"

A hint of joy flashed in Miss Wu's eyes, and then she nodded hurriedly and said, "Just listen to what the high pavilion elder said...... That Qi Yao is really a fool, now that there is evidence in Suzhou, once it is handed over to His Majesty, Meng Chong will definitely die......"

Although it was just a few words, Miss Wu's words were extremely soft, but they were in Meng Chong's ears. But he was already frightened, of course he knew what was going on.

As his own cronies, Qi Yao took revenge on the Suzhou side, which is indeed unreasonable, but since he has done it, he is also very supportive, and he can kill Shen Wuyan at the sight. But it should also be handy.

After all, Shen Wuyan and Feng Bao are good friends, and Feng Bao has always had a dislike for himself, and there is nothing wrong with killing Shen Wuyan and getting rid of an indirect opponent for himself.

It's just that he didn't expect things to come to this point, and literati from all over the capital rushed to petition for Shen Wuyan. Even the emperor's side was hesitant to kill Shen Wuyan, but now that the case has been investigated again, Qi Yao has been impeached, and the case will be reported to His Majesty.

He has done a lot of things with Qi Yao over the years, and naturally there are all kinds of unsightly things, and now that he has been arrested by the Yamen, he is undoubtedly a huge threat to himself. If this matter is sent to His Majesty by the Cabinet, he will surely die.

The martial girl who was standing on the side looked at Meng Chong's face uncertain, so she hurriedly waved her hand and said, "But Gonggong Meng doesn't need to worry...... Gao Ge Lao means that he will press the fold first, and he will not let His Majesty know. ”

Meng Chong's face changed slightly, and he glanced at Miss Wu as if he didn't have anything, and he groaned for a while before nodding again and again, and said, "Thank you, Miss Wu......"

Miss Wu suddenly raised her eyes to look not far away, and hurriedly said, "Yo, that's not Your Majesty...... I'll go over first......"

Only then was Meng Chong able to wipe the beads of sweat that appeared on his forehead, and with the gentle spring breeze blowing, his heart was cold, and his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

"I actually let you know...... Meng Chong looked coldly at the shadow in the distance, whispered in his heart, and said, "Then you can't blame the old man for being polite......

……

After placing the emperor and the martial girl, Meng Chong hurriedly headed towards the cabinet. Along the way, he was already anxious, but he didn't know the bottom of this matter in his heart, after all, Gao Gong's attitude towards himself these days was no longer as trusting as before.

For the old man, Meng Chong didn't pay attention to it. Since he sat in the position of the palm seal of the celebrant of ceremonies, he was no longer afraid of the other party, and the other party no longer had the same trust on His Majesty's side as before, so he was even more disdainful of the other party.

But even so, Meng Chong's work has always been very good, in addition to visiting him in person every festival, whenever he meets, he will be very respectful.

Things changed a month ago, because Gao Gong broke into the Qianqing Palace, but it involved Meng Chong, if it wasn't for the martial girl's intercession, I was afraid that she would have to go to the tomb of the first emperor now.

Since then, Meng Chong has decided that this Gao Ge Lao is unreliable, once he is slightly wrong, the other party will take advantage of himself, and he will often approach His Majesty, and will always say some inconsequential little things.

In addition to the oppression of Gao Ge's family in Henan, there are also some small things about the subordinates of Gao Ge Lao, in short, they are all important things that cannot be tolerated, but they are enough to make the emperor even more tired of Gao Gong.

So much so that since the last time he broke into the palace, the emperor has not summoned Gao Gong, and even sometimes he will look bored when he mentions Gao Gong.

Meng Chong has always been a very cautious observer of these seemingly inadvertent small changes, and he has not acted too drastically, because he is well aware of the unusual relationship between Gao Gong and His Majesty today.

Gao Gong's help to the emperor in the years of Yuwang's Mansion can be described as great, if it were not for Gao Gong, it is impossible to say what King Yu would be bullied by the Yan family, and it is difficult to fight against King Jing.

So that it seems to be a monarch and a minister, but in fact a teacher and a student, although His Majesty is tired of it, but after all, he will not treat his teacher well, and breaking into the palace before is a precedent.

At that time, as long as Gao Gong was replaced by someone else, it would be certain death, His Majesty was certainly very angry, but in addition to his feelings for Gao Gong, another point was because the court needed this Mr. Gao to maintain.

The emperor seems to be slack over the years, but the government is thriving, which is supported by Gao Gong, if Gao Gong is killed, then no one can take over this position.

Although Miss Wu is loved by His Majesty, and Meng Chong himself is deeply favored by the emperor, but neither of these two people can be of great use to the Ming Zhu family, so in the final choice, His Majesty will definitely choose Gao Gong.

This is also why although Meng Chong makes some small moves on weekdays, he doesn't dare to really make enemies with Gao Gong after all, even if the other party already has other ideas about himself, and even a little distrusts himself.

The original intention is to keep a certain distance from Gao Ge Lao, at least don't let the other party grab the handle, get closer to the other party at the appropriate time, and at least don't be hostile to the other party.

And if you make some small moves behind your back, so that Your Majesty can see some high arches, that is the best policy.

It's just that today, when this happened again, Meng Chong had to go to Gao Gong, because this matter had already endangered his own net worth.

Nervously walking into the Wenyuan Pavilion, Meng Chong stopped, looked around at the four walls and was quiet, his heart suddenly sank, looking at the person who was bowing his head and not speaking, he was about to walk over.

"What is the matter with Grandpa Meng coming over today...... Could it be that Your Majesty has something to explain? ”

There was obviously a trace of displeasure in his voice, but he was quite calm, and after a slight pause, he said: "Speaking of which, Gonggong Meng hasn't come over for some days...... Feel free to sit down. ”

There are now two people left in the cabinet, Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, in addition to doing things on weekdays, there is only Gao Gong in the Wenyuan Pavilion, and there is not even a servant.

Meng Chong also understood the situation here, so after being silent for a long time, he suddenly knelt in front of Gao Gong and cried loudly: "Gao Ge Lao, do you want to help me......

Gao Gong probably didn't expect Meng Chong to come to this scene, and after being stunned for a while, he hurriedly got up and helped Meng Chong up, and said in a low voice: "What is Father-in-law Meng doing...... What can't you say? ”

Meng Chong didn't care about it, so he cried like this: "It's not that Qi Yao...... That kid caused trouble in Suzhou, but now it's affecting me...... I don't know what kind of sin I've done, this little bastard. ”

said that it was a little bastard, but in fact, Qi Yao's age was not far from Meng Chong, and saying this made Gao Gong frown slightly, and said in a deep voice: "How do you know about this?" ”

"I'm listening to Miss Wu in the Qianqing Palace today." Meng Chong was stunned, so he said without thinking.

Gao Gong's face sank, and he said in a deep voice: "Martial girl...... How did she know...... I can't help you with this. ”

Meng Chong's face changed greatly, and he immediately said angrily: "Gao Ge Lao, you have to think clearly, my Meng Chong's life is naturally not a pity, but if it implicates your old ......"

Gao Gong's temper was already short-tempered, but at this time, listening to Meng Chong's slightly threatening words, he was even more annoyed, and said angrily: "The old man has already suppressed this matter, and now it is known by Miss Wu...... She is the closest to His Majesty, if the news leaks......"

Only then did Meng Chong come back to his senses, and he couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "What does Elder Ge mean...... So that she can never speak? (To be continued.)
