Mei Xiaoren stopped, and now she is also counting the days to live, if she doesn't get this account today, she may become a regret in the future.

As soon as her hand under her wide sleeves loosened, a dagger fell to the ground, and she took advantage of Ji Nanrou to pick up the dagger, pulled back the hem of her clothes, and moved out the door.

It's dawn again.

60,000 is about to be pressed, Mei Xiaoren will send someone to investigate the situation outside the city every day, and the person who came back today to report not only reported the military situation, but also went to the west of the city to inquire according to her instructions, and the prostitution hall did have a girl who committed suicide last night.

The personal grudge is over, and the only thing left is the danger of the family and the country.

Several Shangshu lords knew what happened yesterday, and gathered in the Prime Minister's Mansion today, but they all remained silent.

They were loyal to Chu Yu, and last time they unanimously asked her to try to steal the talisman, but now in the face of Ye Zhi's conditions, no one asked her to obey, and she didn't even say that she would do it.

Mei Xiaoren didn't speak. She is a woman with a marriage contract, and she is only short of getting married with three books and six ceremonies, even if she loses her life, her surname will be engraved on her grave, and there is no reason to remarry.

"Actually, this matter is not without room for manoeuvre."

Everyone turned their eyes to the military department Shangshu who spoke.

The secretary of the military department said: "Madam, I have been dealing with the generals all the year round, and I also have some friendship with General Mo who led the troops, and I am willing to send someone to lobby, if he understands the righteousness, it is naturally good to be willing to withdraw the army, if not, we can also delay some time and think of another countermeasure." ”

Several Shangshu nodded when they heard this, thinking that this delaying plan was feasible.

"How many days can such a drag be delayed?" Mei Xiaoren's brows remained undiminished, "I heard that General Ye Huai's old troops were loyal to him, otherwise they would never have worked for him because of Ye Zhi's words." ”

The military department Shangshu said: "Madame, rest assured, Ye Huai is Ye Huai, Ye Zhi is Ye Zhi, General Ye Huai is not such an unscrupulous person as his son, if General Mo knows what the young master they are loyal to has done, he may not continue to listen to his orders." ”

Mei Xiaoren nodded, "Okay, this matter is up to Master Lao Shangshu, whether you persuade him or not, please send someone to inform him." ”

"Yes."

There are less than five days left, I can't get the talisman, and I want to resolve the danger of going to the capital, so I can only try to persuade General Mo who led the troops, I hope that it is really as the book of the military department said, General Ye Huai's old department is a person who knows right from wrong, and will not be foolish and loyal.

Mei Xiaoren didn't tell Jiang Rong about this, it was useless to tell him, he couldn't be the master if he handed over the jade seal, and he could only be anxious if he knew.

She waited in the mansion for several days, until the day before the army pressed the border, and there was no reply from the people sent by the military department Shangshu to mediate.

There are no good or bad ones, and the calm is the most disturbing......

There was no movement on Ye Zhi's side, Mei Xiaoren thought that Ye Zhi had figured it out and gave up useless persecution, but who knew that in the evening, Ye Zhi's deputy general actually brought someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Blocked by the guards, they couldn't get through the gate, so they waited outside.

Mei Xiaoren went out to check and found a few boxes outside the door, all of which were hung with red silk and the word "happiness" pasted on them.

When the deputy general saw her come out, he arched his hand to her and said: "Girl, the general said that no matter whether the girl agrees or not, he will prepare everything and wait for the girl to make a decision, but he can only wait until tomorrow evening, and then the sedan chair will pick up the girl in the south of the city, if the girl does not go to the sedan chair, I will enter the palace to pick up His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Mei Xiaoren looked ahead, ignoring the visitors, and didn't look at the boxes in his eyes.

The adjutant general also said: "The general said that the time is urgent, the marriage is simple, there is no need to write what marriage stickers to make any marriage contract, as long as the people of the world see that the girl is married to the general, it is enough, everything the girl needs is here, please accept it." ”

After the adjutant finished speaking, he left with the people.

Mei Xiaoren was still standing at the door, his expression as cold as the night wind.

"Ma'am, this ......" the guard looked at the boxes with a hard time.

Mei Xiaoren turned around and entered the mansion, and only said, "Leave it alone, go and invite Yao Mansion Yin to come." ”

At night, Mei Xiaoren and Yao Fuyin discussed in the garden for an hour.

Yao Fu Yin has 10,000 soldiers in her hands, and after the Duke of Wei held the forbidden army in her hands, she used her own money and savings to raise her own soldiers, and only she and Yao Fu Yin knew about this matter. When she was still Fu Yin, Yao Fu Yin was still Fu Cheng, she sent him a letter, and the letter mentioned this matter.

She did this to prepare for the dispute between the two provinces, hoping to make the prime minister's mansion like a tiger, but she didn't expect that it would be used to escape in the end.

After discussing everything, Mei Xiaoren went straight to a place, pushed open the door, and it was pitch black inside.

She lit a few candles, and the room grew bright.

It is cleaned every day, and the couches and desks by the windows are spotless. The night before he left, he sat there with her in his arms and talked to her a lot.

The moon shone into the window, and Mei Xiaoren walked to the couch and sat down, sitting alone in the moonlight.

She leaned down on the desk, even though she knew that there was no one around, she still opened her lips and asked, "Am I doing the right thing?" ”

Sure enough, there was no response......

Mei Xiaoren sat in Gu Chuyu's bedroom for a night, Yuehua was dispersed by the morning light, and when it was dawn, no one came to give her a letter.

She opened the door and went out, the clouds outside were light and the wind was light, and everything in the house was as before.

Mei Xiaoren kept sending people to the military department to inquire, but the results were all "not returned", and the people sent to lobby have not returned, so she has to plan for the worst.

Before the sun set, someone finally came from the military department, but it was said that 60,000 troops had arrived in the city, and Ye Zhi also invited the general surnamed Mo to enter the city for a banquet.

Mei Xiaoren stood in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, looking at the calm lake, without saying a word.

She was promoted from the county order to the Yin of Shangjing Mansion, experienced escape from death, committed the crime of bullying the king, encountered countless hardships and obstacles, and never was afraid or cowered. She thought that there was no predicament in the world that could break her until now......

Now she felt like she had no way out.

Mei Xiaoren summoned the guards and ordered: "Tell Yao Fu Yin, do what you said yesterday, send His Highness out of Beijing immediately after dark, and if you can, escort Your Highness to find Xiangye." ”

"What about Madame?"

Mei Xiaoren stared and said: "I don't go, I can't go, the people outside are staring at me, and no one can leave with me, not to mention that I can still drag Ye Zhi if I stay." ”

t

The sedan chair will go to the south of the city to pick up the bride, and when the sun sets, Mei Xiaoren still hasn't gone anywhere in the prime minister's mansion, no makeup, and no clothes.

She stood on the attic of Yingtai, looking at the sunset by the railing, and she retracted her gaze and looked at the courtyard downstairs, her eyes scattered, as if she saw him walking slowly, picking up her lost handkerchief, looking at her and saying with a smile: "Why didn't you fall down?" ”
