The two stood at the stern of the dragon boat, talking face to face, and not only talking, His Royal Highness King Yu, who was honorable, even took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat of the little eunuch.

Wei Shuying became more and more curious, and when he turned his head to look, the more he looked at someone, the more gloomy his face became, and then he turned around and walked back a few steps, as if to avoid being seen by the two of them.

Wei Shuying couldn't help but smile, if the little eunuch wasn't Brother Mei, how could Chu Yu worry about being recognized by them.

He also turned around, returned to Chu Yu's side, shook the folding fan and said, "I didn't expect that they not only knew each other, but also seemed to know each other very well." He closed the folding fan again and knocked on the arms of the people around him, "Xiao Yu'er, King Yu has told him, so when are you going to hide it?" ”

"Don't send them away quickly." Chu Yu glanced back at Jiang Rong and moved back to the cabin.

Wei Shuying instructed a Xuanyi guard to do it, and then followed and said, "In my opinion, you should find a chance to tell Brother Mei, otherwise he will be able to get on King Yu's ship in the future." ”

Chu Yu slowed down, turned his back to Wei Shuying and said, "She asked me that day. ”

"What do I ask you?"

"Do you want to stay away from the prime minister's party." Chu Yu glanced back, "How do you want me to tell her?" ”

When Wei Shuying heard this, he laughed, and knocked his hand with a folding fan, "I'll just say, King Yu's mouth, I can't spit out your good words, look, if you don't notice, the cultivated seedlings will be abducted by King Yu." ”

Wei Shuying was laughing heartily, and suddenly met a yin owl's gaze, his throat seemed to be choked, and he couldn't laugh anymore.

He hurriedly pointed behind him, "I'll pick up people on your behalf." After saying that, he disappeared from his boss without a trace.

Mei Xiaoren and Jiang Rong stood at the stern of the boat for a while, the eunuch's outfit was very heavy, she was so hot that she was sweating, and she couldn't check it out, so she could only go home.

She and Ei were about to leave, when they suddenly heard hurried footsteps in the hall outside.

Her heart tightened, she hurriedly raised her sleeves to wipe the sweat off her face, stood behind Jiang Ei in an orderly manner, and buried her head.

"I'm here, it's okay, I'll send you away."

Jiang Rong took Mei Xiaoren out of the apse, and happened to meet a group of people walking towards him.

Wei Shuying smiled, led the Xuanyi Guard behind him to stand in front of Jiang Ei, and arched his hand, "The minister has seen His Highness, and His Majesty is not in the palace, is Your Highness here?" ”

Jiang Rong said coldly: "If my father is not here, I can't come?" ”

"Absolutely." Wei Shuying smiled very easily, and turned his head to look at the little eunuch behind him, "I saw His Highness talking to this little eunuch on the Xiangye boat just now, but I looked at him very much, not Ah Qing beside His Highness." ”

"He's the new eunuch in my palace, how's that?"

Mei Xiaoren buried her head very low when she heard Wei Shuying's voice, and she didn't know if Scholar Wei recognized her.

"His Royal Highness brings which slave to accompany him, Weichen can't care, but Weichen wants to remind His Highness that this is a dragon boat, and outsiders are not allowed to enter and leave at will." Wei Shuying was still very polite.

"Aren't you an outsider?"

"Of course, the minister is an outsider, and he shouldn't have come, but the dragon boat was stolen, and the prime minister ordered the hidden platform to investigate the matter thoroughly, so that the minister could also take a hand, and the minister could naturally enter and leave the place where the crime occurred." Wei Shuying said again, "In that place in the apse, the ministers advised His Highness not to go, and at the moment, both His Highness and the people around His Highness should know how to avoid suspicion." ”

"Got it!" Jiang Rong responded indifferently and hurriedly left.

Wei Shuying didn't stop it, watching the two get out of the dragon boat, shaking his head and sighing lightly.

Jiang Rong was indignant since he met Wei Shuying.

When they returned to the inn, Mei Xiaoren comforted him and said, "Actually, Scholar Wei is right, you shouldn't go to that place now, you can doubt Gu Xiang, and Gu Xiang can also suspect you." He added, "It's also to blame that I didn't expect it before, and I can't help but guard against it." ”

"I can't go, Wei Shuying can go?" Jiang Rong was indignant, "He doubts me, can I still steal my own things?" ”

"Okay, don't talk about it, I have to quickly change my clothes and go back to the yamen." Mei Xiaoren took two steps and turned back to advise, "Also, since the Hidden Moon Platform has intervened, and you have been bumped into by them again today, then don't meddle in this case, and don't talk too much, so as not to get involved." ”

"Villain, do you think that we were driven away today, maybe because some people are weak-hearted, and they are afraid that we will find any clues?"

Mei Xiaoren stopped and said in a calm voice: "Don't put your beak on whether it's right or not, because you have no evidence." ”

Three days later, Mei Xiaoren heard that His Majesty and the Queen Mother had finished praying for blessings and returned to Xuanzhou City.

Maybe Lao Li has entertained His Majesty very well in the past few days, or maybe His Majesty was tired from taking the boat, so he didn't go back to the dragon boat, but took the Queen Mother to stay in Li's mansion.

In order to welcome the holy car into the city, Gao Jingshu was busy before and after, and finally received a word of praise from His Majesty, and he became more and more secure in the position of Tongzhi.

Mei Xiaoren sat in the general judgment in the afternoon and listened to his subordinates talk about this matter, saying that Gao Jingshu picked up at the city gate early in the morning and sent His Majesty to the Li Mansion, and His Majesty praised him for his hard work as soon as he got off the carriage.

On the contrary, she has been ordered by Lao Li to guard the government office these days, and no one cares about it except for being in the company of piles of documents.

Before the sun set, she suddenly received a summons from Lao Li, asking her to go to Li's mansion to face the saint.

Mei Xiaoren rushed to the outside of Li's mansion and tidied up his clothes from top to bottom before moving inside.

From the gate of the mansion to the main hall of the Li Mansion, there are guards all the way, the door of the main hall is closed, and there are many eunuchs and palace maids standing on both sides.

Mei Xiaoren walked to the door and waited, and heard bursts of laughter and laughter coming from inside.

The eunuch by the door shouted, "Your Majesty, Mei Tong has been sentenced." ”

"Let him in." A middle-aged man's voice came from inside.

The eunuch did not rush to open the door, but pulled his neck and shouted: "Your Majesty has a decree, pass on Meitong's judgment to the audience——"

After that, the palace maid pushed the door open one by one.

Mei Xiaoren buried his head inside, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Weichen Xuanzhou sentenced Mei Xiaoren to see His Majesty and the Queen Mother, and respectfully ask Your Majesty Sheng'an, the Queen Mother Jin'an." ”

"Let's be flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Mei Xiaoren stood up and buried his head in his head.

Emperor Tianhong said: "I heard that Governor Li said that you are as young and capable as Gao Tongzhi, and you are only nineteen years old?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, exactly."

The Queen Mother said with a smile: "The mourning family also heard about you, raise your head, and let the mourning family take a look." ”

Mei Xiaoren raised his eyes to look at Emperor Tianhong and the Queen Mother. Although these two are mother and son, they are the same age, about early forties.

Emperor Tianhong was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, a little thin, as if sickly, and looked like he had lost a lot of majesty. The queen has a kind face, wearing a dark purple palace dress embroidered with lotus flowers, and a golden hairpin on her head, graceful and luxurious.

Emperor Tianhong said again: "Gao Tongzhi said that you are from a noble background, and you must also know calligraphy and painting, so I specially asked you to help me pick and choose, which of these calligraphy and paintings offered by your prefect are worth bringing back to Beijing for collection?" ”

Mei Xiaoren saw a porcelain jar on the ground, and the jar was full of picture scrolls, she looked at the hall again, and saw Lao Li standing at the head of the row, looking at her with a sad face, because she had a few catties and taels Lao Li knew very well.

Where does she know what calligraphy and painting......
