Chapter 173: The Knot in the Heart

Mei Xiaoren slowly walked back and walked into the dense flow of people.

She just heard that the Wei scholar was here, and wanted to ask the Wei scholar for help and let her go to see Lao Li, who knew what she should see and what she shouldn't see, she saw it.

Jiang Rong questioned that the painting was a conspiracy of the prime minister, while she suspected that it was Gao Jingshu's manipulation......

If she hadn't known Scholar Wei, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have thought that this was a play performed by Gao Jingshu, and it was fake!

If her eyes can't deceive people, she can't deceive herself.

Wei Shuying slipped outside until it was dark before coming back, he was not out at ease, but hiding, hiding until dark, and he had to come back to recover when he didn't have to hide.

He complained to the inkstone as he walked up to the boat: "Good boy, it's really yin, if it weren't for Xiao Yu'er to keep him, I would have to give him some color today!" ”

"It's the kind that Madame usually gives to your master?" The inkstone looked Wei Shuying up and down, very suspicious, "Master, can you do this fist embroidery?" ”

"Then I'll ask Liuyue for help and dismantle him!" Wei Shuying was turning around and talking to the inkstone, when he suddenly bumped into a wall-like body, and in a blink of an eye, he really said that whoever arrived.

Liuyue asked: "Who does the scholar want his subordinates to dismantle?" ”

"Don't worry, when your master runs out of people, I'll come to you for help." Wei Shuying knocked Liuyue's chest with a folding fan.

Liuyue took a step back, raised his hand and said, "The master has been waiting for the university scholar for a long time, the university scholar, please." ”

Wei Shuying walked towards the cabin, walked a few steps and then came back, and asked in a low voice: "Let me ask you, how is your master feeling now, is he happy?" ”

"It should be, but the master's mind has always been difficult to guess, and the scholar should know this better than his subordinates."

Wei Shuying asked again: "Then tell me first, what did you report to him just now?" ”

"It's the palace people on the dragon boat, when His Majesty wanted to put them to death, it was the master who left them alive without His Majesty, and handed them over to his subordinates for torture.

"It's all been asked by you, and that person only has half a life left at most, and it's the same whether he stays or not." Wei Shuying smiled again and said, "In this way, next time you do me a favor, I will give you people, you don't have to ask anything, just turn your hidden platform torture people on him." ”

"This ......" Liuyue looked at the hatch with some embarrassment, and buried her head in her head, "The scholar should talk to the master." ”

Chu Yu was already standing in front of the hatch and asked, "What do you want Liuyue to help?" ”

"It's nothing ......," Wei Shuying hesitated.

"How, what you have to say, you have said everything?"

Wei Shuying frowned and nodded, "I have said everything that should be said and what should not be said." ”

Chu Yu was puzzled: "What shouldn't be said?" ”

Wei Shuying was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke: "Xiao Yu'er, you and I have been classmates for several years, working together for several years, not brothers are better than brothers, I am wholeheartedly devoted to you, and it is impossible to betray you in the next life, you know." ”

He spoke earnestly, slowly moved his steps back, glanced behind him as he retreated, and continued, "I have never shirked the errand you have explained, and this one today is naturally done properly, but let's do things in people, and things are in the sky, no matter how hard I am prepared, there will be accidents......"

"Accident, what accident?"

Wei Shuying had retreated to the edge of the deck, and then he puffed up: "When I was enveloping Gao Jingshu, I was seen by your apprentice, he not only saw it, but also heard Gao Jingshu thank you for my promotion, this is Gao Jingshu's kid deliberately, don't blame me!" ”

After he finished speaking, he ran away, stepped on the plank three or two times, rushed to the dock, and escaped by night.

The inkstone was still standing on the deck, seeing that his master had abandoned him and fled, and looked at the adult's eyebrows for a moment, he quickly knelt on the ground and explained: "My lord, this matter is really not about my master's business, my master did things according to the instructions of the adult, everything was going well, the master was leaving, it was Gao Tongzhi who suddenly said something to thank the master for promoting, and the master took a few words in passing, who knew that Mei Gongzi was behind his back......"

Liuyue understood, but he didn't dare to make a sound, because the master had no expression on his face, and no one knew whether he was angry or anxious in his heart, but it would never be nothing.

Yantai added: "Gao Tongzhi must have seen Mei Gongzi come early in the morning, and deliberately said so, my master blamed himself for this, and he walked out all afternoon, but he didn't dare to come back to see the adult." ”

I don't know if the adult didn't listen, or didn't care about his master, the adult was silent for a long time and asked, "Did she say anything?" ”

Yantai shook his head and replied, "Mei Gongzi didn't say anything, he saluted his master and left." ”

Xingyun on the side hurriedly said: "Master, why don't you go and explain to Gongzi?" ”

After that, there was nothing but the sound of the river breeze on the deck, and nothing else.

Yan Tai saw the adults turn around and go into the cabin, and didn't say a word, just like Mei Gongzi did during the day.

On the second day, Gao Jingshu did not come to the Yamen, and Mei Xiaoren stayed alone in the General Judgment Office, only feeling that the hope of rescuing Lao Li was getting slimmer and slimmer.

Because this is the Prime Minister, he wants Lao Li to make room for Gao Jingshu......

"Mei Gongzi."

Mei Xiaoren heard the voice and looked up and saw someone entering the house. This person she knew, was the retinue of the scholar.

"What's the matter?" She asked calmly.

Yantai walked to Mei Xiaoren's table and said, "My master asked me to ask, did you go to him yesterday?" ”

Mei Xiaoren lowered his eyes and replied, "I'm just...... Passing by, passing by. ”

"Actually, yesterday's incident was a business matter, for private reasons, my master really treats you as a friend, you have to know this."

Mei Xiaoren smiled, his smile was a little unnatural, and nodded.

The inkstone can see that Mei Gongzi's smile is not sincere, it seems that yesterday's incident has become a knot in Mei Gongzi's heart.

He doesn't have the ability to untie the knots, although I don't know why the adult didn't let Xingyun come but let him come, but since he came, the adult's explanation had to be finished.

"Mei Gongzi, my master asked me to ask you, if you have any difficulties, if you have, just say it, as long as the master can do it, he will definitely help."

Mei Xiaoren shook his head.

"Really?"

When the inkstone asked for the second time, Mei Xiaoren hesitated. She promised Li Qingqing yesterday that she would go to see Lao Li, if she didn't see Lao Li, Qingqing would not be at ease, and she would not be at ease.

After a while, she calmed her eyes and responded, "Yes." ”

The breeze on the river is still there.

Wei Shuying waited on the deck anxiously, and finally waited for the inkstone to come back, and after listening to the report of the inkstone, he was slightly surprised: "It's just so simple to look at Li Daoyuan?" ”

Inkstone nodded.

"Nothing else?" Wei Shuying asked.

"No ......"

Wei Shuying looked at Chu Yu who was standing on the side of the boat with his hands in his hands, he still turned his back to them, looked at the river, and didn't say a word.
