Chapter 196 I didn't want you
The Prime Minister's Mansion was built.
Mei Xiaoren still came here in the end, alone, without changing his clothes, and got off the horse in the dust.
The walls were towering all around, and the guards guarding the door were the elite of the forbidden army, each armed with a sharp sword and wearing armor, with a serious expression, and did not move.
If it is said that the Wei Mansion is heavily guarded, then the Prime Minister's Mansion can be called impregnable.
If she didn't know the owner of this mansion, the magnificent door in front of her was enough to discourage her.
The words of the living Hades still echoed in her ears, what does it mean to be ungrateful, deceive teachers and destroy ancestors, and turn their faces and deny people?
Mei Xiaoren held a breath in her heart, hurriedly walked up the steps, and before she could report to her home, Xingyun greeted her.
There was a living Hades in front of her who came here, and then there was Xingyun waiting for the rabbit, why did she think that today's play was a bit too coincidental?
"Childe." Greet the clouds.
"Where's Xiangye?"
"In the main hall."
Mei Xiaoren took advantage of the courage in his heart that was born from the nest fire, and sped up his pace to go in, without having to lead the way.
Although the prime minister's mansion is large, the vestibule is generally used for entertaining guests or handling official business, and the layout is mostly symmetrical and easy to find. The first house in the row is the main hall, which is built with a majestic atmosphere and can be compared with the palace.
The door to the main hall was hidden, and there was no one outside.
"Childe ......" As soon as Xingyun shouted, he saw that Mei Xiaoren had walked outside the main hall without hesitation.
She stepped forward quickly, pushed the door and shouted, "Chu Yu." ”
The door opened, and Mei Xiaoren was still standing in front of the door, still holding the door of the hall with both hands. Her gaze went straight to the person sitting in front of her, it was Chu Yu, but when she looked to the side a few more times, she could see that there was a group of ministers with slightly changed faces inside.
Mei Xiaoren hurriedly added his surname to the title: "Gu Chuyu." ”
She found that the faces of the adults were darker, and there were many who blew their beards and glared at her, and some people shouted: "Bold! ”
Mei Xiaoren slapped himself on the head, immediately became serious, and buried his head in his hands: "See the Prime Minister, the lowly position is reckless, I hope the Lord will forgive you." ”
A smile had already appeared on the corner of someone's mouth, and he opened his lips and ordered: "All retreat, don't spread it." ”
The ministers said that it was a retirement.
Mei Xiaoren still maintained a saluting posture and stood in front of the door, burying her head, not daring to look at the adults who passed by her.
It has long been a habit for her to call Chu Yu's name, and now that these ministers hear it, they are only afraid to put a few words on her face, either "bold and presumptuous" or "brazen".
She only turned her head to look outside after the person had left, and cast a complaining glance at Xingyun.
Xingyun hurriedly looked at the sky on the left and right, but he didn't dare to look at Mei Xiaoren. He just wanted to remind him, but the son was too anxious......
Mei Xiaoren closed his eyes, took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and when he opened his eyes again, there was an extra person's clothes in his sight, and the material was Yunjin, which is known as "inch brocade and inch gold".
"The humble position has no intention of offending the name of the prime minister."
"It's a name, not a name."
She was still frowning, unwilling to look up, and asked in a low voice: "What the Metropolitan Governor did today, is it the order of the Prime Minister?" ”
"Yes."
"Don't you want to be so direct." Mei Xiaoren's tone was a little anxious, and the moment he raised his head, the anger in his heart couldn't be released inexplicably.
They hadn't seen each other face to face in months, and the last time they were so close was when he was called Chu Yu, and now just one side could make her bound by old memories.
She once chased to the dock, afraid that she would never see her again, but now that she did, she was told how to complain again.
It was cold outside, and Gu Chuyu led her into the hall. The seats in the hall were far apart, so he did not sit down, but stood in front of her.
"If I don't, how long are you going to hide from me?" Gu Chuyu asked calmly.
Mei Xiaoren turned his face and looked aside, "Why am I hiding, Xiangye doesn't understand?" ”
"I didn't want you."
Mei Xiaoren's mind was "buzzing" for a moment, and he looked at Gu Chuyu in a fog, "Is this the same as the one you want...... What does it matter? ”
He said: "It was Wei Shuying who said that you are misunderstanding me and I intend to push you to King Yu and Wei Guogong." ”
Mei Xiaoren shook his head, lowered his eyes, and said slowly: "There is no misunderstanding, it's the camp...... It's a fact. ”
"That's why you've avoided me?" The smile on Gu Chuyu's lips deepened, "It's uncomfortable to think of being my enemy?" ”
"You're still laughing!" Mei Xiaoren was a little annoyed again, she had been tortured by her current situation for a month, she couldn't be far, she couldn't get close, she wanted to see it, she was afraid to see it...... And he said it so lightly.
"Whether it's friend or foe, not in the camp but in your heart, for example, Ji Heng asked you to come to Tianxing Dao today, can you do it?"
Mei Xiaoren scolded lightly: "What kind of example is not good, why do you assume that you will die and I will die?" ”
She could see that Wei Guogong was such a kind person, even if he was looking forward to returning to power to the emperor, he would not kill anyone.
"As early as when Ji Heng recommended you, I could already imagine today's situation, and I didn't refuse, that's because your position and my position don't matter."
"You really don't think it matters?" Mei Xiaoren will be skeptical. Even if it's a friend, you want the other person to be on your side, just like a scholar of the Guardians.
"You don't hurt me, I don't owe you anything, and no one owes anyone, why can't you see it?"
"I can't talk about you." Mei Xiaoren's tone was angry, his expression had broken the ice a little, and he pretended to be calm and said, "Return the prisoner to me." ”
Gu Chuyu didn't answer, looked at her and said, "I delayed your business today, and after the day after tomorrow, I will wait for you in the drunken immortal residence in the east of the city to make amends for your sins." ”
Mei Xiaoren returned to the market and entered a tea shop, where the Living Yama King was sitting drinking tea and waiting for her, and behind her stood a row of Xuanyi guards, escorting several gray-faced men.
She counted them, and there were no more, no less, exactly ten.
Mei Xiaoren walked to the table, took out his master's handbook and put it on the table, glanced at the men a few more times, and asked the living Hades: "These are all thieves?" ”
"You just take it back and hand it over, and in a few days the seat will send someone to pick it up."
Mei Xiaoren understood, these people are not necessarily thieves, but they are all guilty people. The Living Yama King just lent someone to her and asked her to take her back to the perfunctory Mansion Lord Yin, and then he just escorted the prisoner back on the grounds that the hidden moon platform was to be arraigned.
At first, she thought that what happened today was a coincidence, and guessed that Lord Fu Yin might not have intended to embarrass her, but who knew that when Xingyun sent her out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she told her that Chu Yu just asked Liuyue to interfere with her errand, and did not let Tao Fu Yin do anything.
Liuyue was able to rob her on the street because he sent someone to inquire about her errand today, and it was not arranged in advance.
Therefore, this morning's nameless fire, and the idea of letting her catch ten thieves in one go, still came from Tao Fu Yin's heart.
