After returning to Su's house, Mei Changsu immediately went to chuang to rest, because he knew that it was impossible to have a full sleep tonight.

Sure enough, as soon as the third watch arrived, Feiliu leaned to the side of the bed and said "knock on the door", he got up quickly, roughly took care of his description, coaxed Feiliu to wait outside, and hurried into the dark passage.

King Jing sat in the same place he used to sit in the secret room, bowing his head as if in thought. After hearing Mei Changsu's footsteps, he raised his head, his expression was quite calm, but his eyes flashed with a light with complex meanings.

"Your Highness." Mei Changsu bowed slightly, "You're here." ”

"Looks like you expected me to come." King Jing raised his hand and motioned for him to sit, "Mr. Su's performance in the Heavenly Prison today is really wonderful, even people like Xie Yu can be played with by you." The talent of the unicorn is worthy of its name. ”

"Your Highness has won the prize." Mei Changsu said lightly, "But I can force Xie Yu to tell the truth, and I am also a lot more relieved." Originally, I had been worried that Xia Jiang would also protect the prince, as the head of the Hanging Mirror Division, he was not an easy person to deal with, but now that it has been confirmed that he has no intention of getting involved in party disputes, and there is an internal rift to deal with with Xia Dong, we can finally stop worrying about him. ”

King Jing didn't speak, he kept looking at him deeply, and after watching it for a long time, Mei Changsu felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"What's wrong with Your Highness?"

"You actually only thought of this," Xiao Jingyan's eyes flashed with anger, "Aren't you shocked to hear the truth that Xie Yu revealed today?" ”

Mei Changsu thought for a moment and said slowly: "Does Your Highness mean the old incident when Nie Feng was killed?" After many years, the situation has changed greatly, and it has long been meaningless to track this down, not to mention that Xia Jiang is not our enemy, and it is not wise to make a strong enemy for meaningless things. ”

"A wise man doesn't do it." King Jing sneered, "Do you know that Nie Feng's incident was the cause of the Red Flame Army's rebellion back then, and now even this source is fake, which shows that this huge case is full of shady scenes, and the crimes of the eldest brother and the Lin family are not known to be wronged, and you ...... Do you think it's just an old thing? ”

Mei Changsu looked directly into King Jing's eyes and said calmly: "Did Your Highness only know today that King Qi and the Lin family were wronged?" In Su's impression, it seems that you have always believed that they are not rebellious, right? ”

"I ......" King Jing was stumped by his question, "I used to just believe in the people of the imperial brother and Lin Shuai, but today I ......"

"Today, His Highness has discovered this detailed clue and knows some truths that he couldn't figure out at the beginning, right?" Mei Changsu's expression was still calm, "Then what does Your Highness want?" ”

"Of course, it's to track down, and find out everything about how they framed the eldest brother and Lin Shuai back then!"

"And then?"

And then ...... Then ...... "King Jing suddenly found that he couldn't continue, and then he suddenly understood what Mei Changsu meant, and couldn't help but turn pale and breathe sluggishly.

"Then take the results you found out and go to your majesty to shout grievances, ask him to rehabilitate the reverse case of the year, and punish all those involved in the case?" Mei Changsu coldly pressed in, "Does Your Highness really think that with just one Xia Jiang and one Xie Yu, even if you add the mother and son of the Empress Yue and Concubine Yue, it is enough to slander and kill the eldest son of the emperor who has both ability and integrity, and uproot a famous handsome mansion?" ”

King Jing lowered his shoulders with a dejected expression, his fingers almost pinched out the mark on the hard rosewood kang table, and said in a low voice: "I understand what you mean...... But why? Why? Even if the power of the eldest brother at that time was enough to shake the throne, and there were many political disagreements with his father on the reform of court affairs, after all, he was virtuous by nature and did not have the slightest objection, so why did his father suspect him so far...... We're all father and son......"

"Emperors of the past dynasties, there are countless people who have killed their parents and children, right?" Mei Changsu took a deep breath and reminded himself to control his emotions, "Our emperor's mean heart is not something that came later. According to my speculation, he was both suspicious and afraid of the prestige of the Qi Wangfu at that time, and did not dare to cut power easily. This thought was seen by Xia Jiang, he was so loyal, how could he not worry about the king? ”

"You say, did my father really believe it back then?" King Jing's eyes were painful, "Does he believe that the Great Emperor's brother rebelled and the Red Flame Army rebelled?" ”

"With the emperor's suspicious character, he probably really believed it at the beginning, which is why he was so ruthless and dealt with mercilessly." Speaking of this, Mei Changsu pondered for a moment, "Seeing that Xia Jiang is so eager to seal Xie Yu's mouth now, at least the truth of Nie Feng's case at the beginning of the beginning, the emperor doesn't know." ”

King Jing looked at the oil lamp on the table, shook his head and sighed: "Anyway, if it weren't for the fact that my father himself had doubts in his heart, such a false accusation could be found out by recalling him to Beijing, so why not...... I just hated that I wasn't in the country at the time......"

"Fortunately, Your Highness, you are not in the country, otherwise you will not be able to avoid the disaster of pond fish." Mei Changsu looked indifferent, "Although this case was caused by Xia Jiang, it was finally dealt with by the emperor, and His Royal Highness is afraid that it will not be easy to rehabilitate." It's better to listen to Su Mou's advice, let go of it, and don't check it again. ”

King Jing stood up and paced around the room a few times, and when he finally stopped, his face had regained its tranquility, "What Mr. said is good, but if I really let it go, what kind of love is there in the world?" What Xie Yu said is just a beginning, how did it get to that end step by step, if I don't check it out clearly, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to sleep and eat from now on. I know that Mr. Su knows that he is thoughtful and penetrates people's hearts, and if he wants to clear this old case, please help me. ”

Mei Changsu raised his head, looked into his eyes, and said softly: "Your Highness, can you know that if the emperor finds out that His Royal Highness is investigating King Qi's old case, it will definitely cause endless trouble?" ”

"I know."

"Your Highness knows that even if you find out the ins and outs, it won't help Your Highness in the slightest about what your Highness is planning at the moment?"

"I know."

"Your Highness, can you know that as long as Your Majesty reigns for one day, you will not admit your mistakes and rehabilitate King Qi and the Lin family?"

"I know."

"Since His Highness knows it, he must still check?"

"I want to check." King Jing's eyes were firm, and the corners of his lips pursed cold and hard lines, "I must know how they died unjustly, so that in the future, when I get the throne, I can wash the snow for them one by one." Only for my own selfish interests, and turning a blind eye to the unjust death of my brother and friend, this is not something I have done, please Mr. Su don't persuade me to do it. ”

Mei Changsu swallowed the hot lump that surged up in his throat, sat quietly under the lamp for a while, and then slowly got up, bowed to King Jing, and said in a deep voice: "Since Su is the lord of His Highness, His Highness's orders must be obeyed." Although it has been going on for many years, there are not many people left who know about it, but Su will definitely do his best to find out the truth for His Highness. ”

"So Mr. Law." King Jing raised his hand and helped him, "Mr. is so talented, Jing Yan is fortunate to get it." Bringing down Xie Yu's game is really interlocking and amazing. Although I did not see it in person, I can imagine how tense the situation was that day. Now that the prince has lost his strong help, and when he is panicking, does Mr. plan to let King Yu chase after him? ”

Mei Changsu shook his head, "No, I will advise King Yu to let go a little." ”

"Oh?" King Jing thought about it for a while, and then understood, "It's a pity that King Yu won't listen." ”

"Of course, I won't persuade him harshly, just say a word, he won't listen." Mei Changsu smiled slyly, his expression was very wise.

"In good times, people are inevitably a little hot-headed. The prince is forced into such a situation, his father will definitely protect him, and if the king can't see it, he will accept it, but he is afraid that he will touch a big nail. King Jing looked up and thought for a while, "Father's delay in disposing of Xie Yu is probably not just because Xia Jiang is mediating it, right?" ”

Mei Changsu smiled and praised: "Your Highness has made a lot of progress since he began to watch attentively. Maybe in a year or two, I won't be needed as a counselor anymore. ”

The gentleman laughed. It's not my forte, and I have self-knowledge of that. King Jing waved his hand casually and asked again, "Does Mr. really want to keep Xie Yu alive?" ”

Mei Changsu said lightly: "I just help him block Xia Jiang's people, I don't care about the rest." ”

"Other?"

"Xia Dong is not a vegetarian, this revenge for killing her husband, she can't report it openly, but she is afraid that she will also report it secretly......"

"But this revenge for killing her husband can't all be counted on Xie Yu's body." King Jing showed sympathy on his face, "Xia Jiang is her master after all, I don't know how she will calculate this debt......"

"After many years of hanging mirrors, Xia Dong has her own city, which is not as flamboyant as her appearance. The more she believed Xie Yu's words, the less she would question Xia Jiang. I hope that she will take this matter to heart, and it will be of great use to His Highness in the future. ”

King Jing knew what he meant and nodded. In the future, if there is a day when King Qi can be rehabilitated, Nie Feng's widow will come forward to avenge his grievances, which should be the best start.

But until then, the most important thing is to build up the strength to ensure that you can get the supreme position.

Thinking of this, King Jing reined in his thoughts, put aside the grief and anger brought about by the truth of Nie Feng's case for the time being, and began to discuss the government affairs of the court with Mei Changsu.

Due to many years of military service, the unfamiliarity with civil affairs is a major weakness of King Jing, so Mei Changsu has found many good politicians to create opportunities for King Jing to get acquainted with them, so as to learn the knowledge and methods of governing civil affairs. Every time they meet in the secret room, the two will also have a detailed discussion about specific cases, often unconsciously talking about dawn.

It should be said that after a period of running-in, the relationship between King Jing and Mei Changsu is finally getting better.

Yesterday, the court just debated the two major events of setting up iron mine supervision and unifying horse politics in various places, King Jing is the person who leads the troops, and has a deep opinion on weapon forging and the supply of war horses, but because he must keep a low profile in the court, he has to speak on the principle of fine and few, and he has not been able to pour out all the words in his stomach at the moment, of course, he thinks of what to say, and it is even more rare that Mei Changsu can keep up with his train of thought, and some concepts are very compatible without even communication. When King Jing talked about the hearty place, he didn't think that until the conversation was nearing the end, he was surprised and asked: "Although Mr. has the talent of a unicorn, but after all, he is from the rivers and lakes, how can he be so familiar with military affairs, it seems that he has fought a war......

Mei Changsu was slightly stunned, regretting that he was a little forgetful, but his face did not show it, but smiled indifferently: "As the saying goes, haven't you ever eaten pork, haven't you ever seen a pig walking?" Our alliance also often accepts some veterans who have been discharged, don't underestimate these battle-hardened soldiers, they have different perspectives and can broaden their horizons. After arriving in the capital, Tuo Feiliu's blessing met the commander of Mengda, and he was surprisingly able to talk about it, and he asked him for advice on many things. But in the end, I have learned a lot in this area, and I am not a system, but I am afraid that some words will make His Highness laugh. ”

King Jing only asked casually, and did not think deeply, seeing that he was humble, he hurriedly said: "Where, Mr.'s views are very incisive and convincing. It seems that Mr. Yi's talent cannot be judged alone, which makes Jing Yan impressed. ”

Mei Changsu bowed back to thank him, he was already cautious in his heart, and he didn't want to say more, so he said: "The hourglass is about to run out, and the palace will be early, so it's better to go back and rest for a while." Although you are a soldier, you can't overdo it. ”

King Jing was not tired at this time, but seeing that Mei Changsu already had a green shadow under him, he knew that his body could not be generalized with himself, so he immediately got up, said two words of goodbye, and opened the stone door in the secret room leading to King Jing's mansion, and simply left.

When Mei Changsu returned to his bedroom, it was still dark outside, Feiliu lit a lamp, sat quietly, and as soon as the person came out, he pounced.

"It's been a long time!" The boy grumbled in displeasure.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Mei Changsu patted his vest with a smile, "Let's wait for a long time." Before dawn, let's get some sleep. ”

"Wake up!"

"You're awake, but Brother Su is sleepy."

Feiliu pushed him to the side of the bed and said loudly, "Sleep!" ”

"Brother Su is asleep, what is Feiliu doing?"

"Draw!"

Mei Changsu couldn't help but smile, rubbed the top of his head, no longer cared about him, relaxed his coat, and leaned on a pillow to sleep. Feiliu lay on the head of the bed and guarded him for a while, then jumped outside, pulled the paper and polished the ink, and began to draw stroke by stroke.

After the vernal equinox, the days were long and the nights were short, and when Mei Changsu came back, it was already early in the morning, so Feiliu hadn't painted two pictures yet, and there was already a faint light on the screen window.

Mei Changsu turned over and faced inside, Feiliu had been trained and came to the window very sensibly, intending to pull down the bamboo curtain. As soon as he held the pole, there was a faint sound of a bell striking outside, and he couldn't help but prick up his ears to listen.

Almost at the same time, Mei Changsu jumped up from the bed, and before he could put on his clothes, he turned over and fell to the ground, and he didn't even take his shoes, and rushed straight to the outdoor yard.

"Brother Su!" Feiliu was startled, and hurriedly chased after him, only to see him wearing only a pair of white socks, standing on the cold bluestone slab of the atrium corridor, looking up to the sky, and listening carefully.

At this time, Li Gang and the others also heard the movement, and ran over one after another, surrounding their own sect master, but looking at his expression, no one dared to call him.

"Feiliu, how many sounds?" After the bell stopped, Mei Changsu asked softly.

"Twenty-seven!"

Li Gang's thick eyebrows jumped: "Golden Bell Twenty-seven, the big funeral, there is no queen mother in the palace, then it is ......"

Before the words fell, Mei Changsu closed his eyes with a pale face, as if he had endured it, he didn't hold back, and suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood and sprinkled his clothes.

"Sect Master!"

"Brother Su!"

The people around him immediately panicked, and someone rushed to find Dr. Yan, but Li Gang quickly picked him up, sent him back indoors, and put him on the bed. Doctor Yan came very quickly, took the pulse, and was about to perform the needle, but Mei Changsu sat up, shook his hand, lowered his head and whispered: "You don't have to worry, go out, let me be quiet." ”

"Sect Master......" Li Gang was about to persuade him, but Doctor Yan raised his hand to stop him, stood up first, and motioned for everyone to withdraw together, but Feiliu resolutely refused to move, and he could only do it.

After the room finally returned to calm, Mei Changsu slowly raised his head and opened his eyes, and his red eyes were overflowing with tears.

"Feiliu," he muttered, patting the boy on the head, "my grandmother, after all, she still can't wait for me to go back......"
