Jiang Rong abandoned the carriage and his entourage, and led the horse alone on the streets south of the city. He walked very slowly, as if he had lost his soul, and with every step he took, what flashed in his mind was the scene that happened in Qiushui County that year.

Her straight posture, serious appearance, and cold speech...... He can't forget it, and he's become a phantom that can't be caught......

He had always called her "villain", and it had never changed, but before he could call her by her name, she had already given up her former name and began to call him "Your Highness" like everyone who knew him.

If the two don't owe each other, isn't it estrangement?

"Choke-choke-"

The sound of the gong exploded in his ears, and Jiang Rong came back to his senses, stopped, and calmly looked at the group of people coming towards him. There is also an official messenger to open the way, and the vermilion lacquer sign is also written "quiet" and "avoidance", and it is also a sedan chair walking in the middle.

At this time, the white horse he was holding just shook his neck and wagged his tail a few times. The reins were firmly in his hands.

Jiang Rong was in the middle of the road, his eyes were fixed on the sedan chair, and his mouth was chanting: "The villain ......"

He knew that this scene was not a return to the past, but he still wanted to take it seriously, standing motionless in the middle of the road. He hoped that the sedan chair would stop, that she would still get off the sedan chair, point at him, and scold him for being "sick".

Someone led a horse in front of him to block the road, and the driver had to stop. The official wanted to step forward and drive away, but the official in the sedan chair opened the curtain and hurriedly stopped it, and when the sedan chair landed, the official hurriedly stepped forward and leaned over: "The minister greets His Highness." ”

Jiang Rong looked at the person who bowed, it was not her, it was a Beijing official in his fifties, and he was still a staff member of the Duke of Wei. He didn't speak, bypassed the officer, and took a few steps forward.

The official could see that King Yu's expression was not quite right, so he hurriedly chased after him and asked, "Why is Your Highness here, why is there no entourage around you?" ”

Jiang Rong didn't say a word, and led the horse forward alone.

The officials in the road hurriedly avoided, and the sedan chair man also carried the sedan chair to the side of the road to give way, and the people retreated when they saw this.

A large road was vacated by them, and it became extremely wide, and only Ei walked through.

"Your Highness?" The official caught up with him again and led him to look to the side of the road, "The Lord Guogong is there." ”

Jiang Rong looked up and saw Wei Guocheng standing upstairs in the tea shop looking at him, looking a little helpless.

Wei Guogong is the person who is most looking forward to his success, how can he let Wei Guogong down. Jiang Rong only regained his senses at this time, gave the horse to the official messenger to lead, and went upstairs to see Wei Guogong.

Wei Guogong had already chartered the second floor and sat at the table opposite Jiang Rong. He personally took the teacup from the servant and put it in front of Jiang Rong, and asked lightly, "Who has Your Highness just met?" ”

Jiang Rong didn't want to be deceived, so he replied truthfully: "Mei is in charge." ”

Wei Guogong looked downstairs again and asked, "Director Mei just came back from the border pass, and the horse was given to His Highness by him?" ”

Jiang Rong nodded, "In the past, when she was the county magistrate of Qiushui County, she scared my horse, and she still remembers that she came here to return it today." ”

"Didn't His Highness always want the Xia National Treasure Horse? Previously, there was Gu Xiang's ban on business, and His Highness sought many things to no avail, but now he has got what he wants, why is His Highness not happy? ”

Jiang Rong didn't answer, and asked again: "Uncle, ...... you to Mei in charge?"

"Your Royal Highness, you know that the minister used to be an official in the Ministry of Officials, and the most unsightly thing is that someone uses his power for personal gain, corrupting the atmosphere of the court, and the reputation of Master Mei is unjust, which is unfair to Ye Zhi, so the minister bowed to His Majesty."

"Then why do you have to kill him, just because he took refuge in Gu Xiang?"

Wei Guogong sighed: "The minister is not looking forward to his death, but the minister wants to take this opportunity to frustrate the spirit of the Prime Minister's mansion. Wei Guogong said again, "But Your Highness, he committed a serious crime, and the minister can't exonerate him, otherwise how can he be worthy of the students who study hard in the cold window." ”

"I understand, do you still expect him to deserve it?"

"Ye Zhi has put this matter down, I, as a father-in-law, will naturally not go against his will, and besides, Lord Mei has been dismissed beforehand, and he deserves it, and now that he has returned to the court, it is Gu Xiang who supports him behind his back, and he is not at fault." Wei Guogong sighed, "Yu Li, the minister does not agree, but Yu Qing, the minister knows that Mei is a rare talent, and he is beneficial to Daning Sheji as an official, as long as the official position is clear, the minister has nothing to object." ”

Jiang Rong hurriedly asked: "But she is now Gu Xiang's person, and her uncle is not hostile to her?" ”

Wei Guogong shook his head, "He threw himself into the Prime Minister's Mansion because Gu Xiang was her mentor, and the minister only hated that he couldn't find this good seedling earlier, so Gu Xiang took the lead." ”

The stone in Jiang Rong's heart barely landed. The Duke of Wei and the Prime Minister's Mansion were incompatible, and he was afraid that she would be injured by the Duke of Wei as a political enemy in this battle.

"Your Highness don't worry, Master Mei is not a person who does not distinguish between good and evil, and he will definitely be able to make a right choice between mentorship and righteousness in the future." Wei Guogong looked at Jiang Rong and said more and more seriously, "Your Highness should cheer up, let Master Mei see the filth as soon as possible, and take him out of the quagmire, instead of giving him to the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

Jiang Rong was suspicious: "Will she really come back?" ”

"Good birds choose trees to perch, Your Highness must work hard and be diligent in political affairs, so that Director Mei can see who is a good wood between His Royal Highness and Gu Xiang."

Jiang Rong already understood what Wei Guogong meant, and arched his hand and said, "Thank you uncle for mentioning it." ”

Mei Xiaoren returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion and saw a carriage parked outside the door, the carriage of the scholar of the guard.

She looked up at the sky, the sun had set, and it was time to eat. She guessed that most of the scholars of Wei University had come to find Chu Yu to have a drink, but she didn't expect to find out when she entered the garden that it was not what she thought.

In the water pavilion, Gu Chuyu was silently drinking tea, while the scholar was pacing around him, his steps were extremely fast, his hands were constantly gesturing, and his mouth was constantly muttering something, as if he was very angry.

When Mei Xiaoren approached, he heard the scholar of the guard roaring angrily with blood: "Xiao Yu'er, you say, why is she! ”

She was stunned for a moment, and stopped in front of the water pavilion.

Chu Yu has a good temper, and the temperament of the scholar is not bad, she has never seen the scholar get so angry.

"Xiao Xiao, come and sit." Gu Chuyu called her.

Mei Xiaoren moved in, his eyes kept an eye on the Wei scholar. Before figuring out the ins and outs, she was afraid of annoying the university scholars again and adding fuel to the fire, so she deliberately detoured from the other side.

As soon as she sat down, Senior Scholar Wei asked her: "Brother Mei, you came just in time, let me ask you, what stimulated Zhu Xiaozhen to go out this time, becoming more and more arrogant and unreasonable!" ”

"Madame, she...... What's wrong with her? Mei Xiaoren was in a fog.

The Guard did not answer.

She looked at Chu Yu again, and Chu Yu motioned for her to look at the table.

Mei Xiaoren lowered her eyes and saw a page of letterhead on the table, with only a few sentences on it, but her eyes widened in surprise......
