Seeing that after Bailiqi won and sat down again, he had no intention of getting up again, Xiao Jingrui stood up with a solemn face, hugged his fist coldly, and said, "Under Xiao Jingrui, ask the Baili Warriors for advice." ”

Bailiqi was challenged for the first time today, and his eyes flashed, but he looked back at the envoy of his country, and saw that he shook his head at him, and his expression immediately turned to nothing, shaking his head and refusing: "I'm tired." ”

Xiao Jingrui knew that his name could easily be mistaken for the prince of Daliang, and suspected that the other party refused because of this, so he hurriedly added: "The son of Xie Yu, the Marquis of Xianing Kingdom, I have come to ask for advice." If the Baili warrior is tired, he can rest for a while and then give instructions. ”

Bailiqi looked back again, but the envoy of Beiyan still shook his head, so he said again: "I won't fight today." ”

In fact, as we all know, Xiao Jingrui does not like to fight and win by nature, and he has always believed that there is no need to grudge whether he wins or loses. But what Bailiqi did today was really excessive, sometimes it was clear that the other party had been defeated, and he had to catch up and completely knock him down, and he couldn't help but arouse the anger of this gentle young man, so his blood was surging, and he took the initiative to challenge him, and he held his breath, wanting to fight to be seriously injured, but he had to frustrate Bailiqi's anger, but he didn't expect to be blocked back by the softness at the beginning, but that person really fought several times in a row, and he had to say that he was "pretending to be tired and avoiding war" and something like that, with Xiao Jingrui's gentle personality, he really couldn't say it, He could only be stunned for a long time, and Fang said: "Then please ask the Baili Warrior to make an appointment with me, and you and I will fight again on a certain day." ”

Bailiqi took a sip of tea, shook his head for the third time, and said coldly: "Is there any reason to fight again another day?" There are so many people here, if you really want to fight, you can pick another one. ”

Seeing that he insisted on refusing, Emperor Liang couldn't help but move his heart, and glanced sideways at Meng Zhi. The commander of the forbidden army immediately understood what he meant, and hurriedly leaned over and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, don't misunderstand, the people of Beiyan are not showing weakness, they just know that Jing Rui and Yujin must have a noble status, and they are obviously familiar with the county lord just now, so they don't want to offend the powerful people of Daliang too much." In fact, Jing Rui is not Bailiqi's opponent. ”

Although Emperor Liang looked as usual when he heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart. Bailiqi is so reckless today, as the monarch of the Great Liang, of course he still hopes that a native can earn some face, but unfortunately he is afraid that it will be difficult to do so. When he was depressed in his heart, he suddenly saw Mei Changsu below whispering something to the county lord, Nihuang looked surprised after hearing this, and couldn't help asking: "Nihuang, what are you talking about with Su Qing?" ”

The Nihuang County Lord hesitated for a moment, and reluctantly smiled: "It's nothing ......"

Emperor Liang hung a slight anger on his eyebrows, and said in a deep voice: "Don't bully the king, what are you talking about?" ”

The county lord smiled and said, "How dare Nihuang. Mr. Su just commented a few words on the battle just now, and he really didn't say anything else. ”

"Oh? Su Qing has any lofty opinions, no matter what you say, everyone listens to it. ”

The Nihuang County Lord looked at Mei Changsu and saw that he also had a helpless expression, so he had no choice but to stand up and say: "Mr. Su said that the warriors of a hundred miles are too rigid and easy to break, and the way to practice martial arts is wrong. ”

Hearing this comment, Bailiqi's muscles jumped and he was slightly angry. However, the envoy of Beiyan regarded these words as if the Liang people wanted to find some scenes, and said proudly at the moment: "This kind of words can be put on anyone, if Mr. is a master, you might as well find his flaws, and find a few more children to knock him down." ”

Mei Changsu hurriedly smiled: "It's me who is lying in vain." Don't worry, it's not easy for a hundred miles of warriors to practice like this, and I won't ruin people's futures casually. ”

He was obviously apologizing, but that sound more heart-wrenching than a shouting, and the implication was clearly to say, "Actually, I can do what I say, but I just don't want to ruin you", Beiyan envoy Zhengzhi was full of pride, how could he be comfortable listening to it, and immediately said: "If this gentleman has such ability, you might as well try it in front of Your Majesty's interview, although our Baili warriors are tired, they don't dare to sweep Mr. Uncle's interest in saying big things." ”

"How can it be so fast," Mei Changsu still had a gentle smile on his face, "Even if I can find a few children immediately, I will have to teach them for at least a few days." Okay, even if it's me talking nonsense, don't worry about it......"

As soon as the envoys of Beiyan heard this, how could they hear this more and more like the truth, if they wanted to ignore him like this, as if they were afraid of him, Bai Liqi's face earned with a punch and a kick, if someone earned it back on his tongue, in the future, the four princes knew that they would only be afraid that they would say that they were incompetent, how could they not refuse, and sneered at the moment: "Mr. wants to train people, we just wait." Your Majesty, please point a date and make sure to be on call. ”

Mei Changsu's expression was a little embarrassed, and he muttered: "I'm not familiar with the capital, where can I find these children......

In fact, what kind of child is he looking for, as long as he says it, every Liang person present can immediately help him find a large group, but no one can tell whether what he said is true or just want to be angry, and he didn't dare to speak.

Seeing him like this, the envoys of Northern Yan became more and more sure that he was bluffing, and immediately added fuel to the fire and said: "What's so difficult about this, I heard that there are many junior apprentices in the martial arts hall in the capital of your country......

"The children in the martial arts hall are too strong, and I'm afraid that the Hundred Miles Warriors will suffer. Besides, it's not fair to find a few children who have practiced martial arts to besiege them. ”

Seeing that this person was going to continue to brag at such a point, Beiyan gritted his teeth angrily and said, "What's the matter, we have no complaints." ”

"It's not good," Mei Changsu shook his head, "I want to find a weaker ...... Are there any weaker children in this palace and in your house? ”

Everyone was afraid and didn't dare to answer, for fear of accidentally helping them, only Princess Jingning didn't understand this situation very well, and she had just been stimulated by the tragic situation in the Youting Court not long ago, so she immediately answered: "There are in the palace, there are many children in the Youyouting, all of them are skinny and pitiful." ”

"The sin slave of the Hidden Court," Mei Changsu whispered to himself, "It's more suitable than finding an ordinary child, but does Your Majesty ......allow it?"

Emperor Liang saw his gaze looking at him, and he couldn't confirm for a moment whether he hoped that he would agree or not. Just as he was hesitating, Meng Zhi's voice penetrated into his ears: "Please allow Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Liang's trust in the martial arts of the country's number one master was undoubted, and he immediately said, "I'm right." Come on, go to the secluded courtyard and pick a few children. ”

Mei Changsu added: "Remember, it's a little weaker." ”

The envoy of Beiyan was very angry with him, and said viciously: "Sin slaves are also people, and Mr. asked these children to die for nothing, but it is really unbearable." ”

Princess Jingning saw that her casual answer caused this consequence, and she was in a hurry, so she hurriedly continued: "Yes, isn't this letting those children go to death?" Father, this will never work! ”

"Don't worry, princess, I'm still a little sure." Mei Changsu persuaded, "Besides, as a criminal slave, if you can serve Your Majesty, you should even die." What's more, once you win, Your Majesty will have a heavy reward. ”

Princess Jingning was even more angry when she heard this: "They work in the palace every day, and no matter how much silver they give, there is nowhere to spend it, of course life is more important!" ”

"That's right," Mei Changsu raised his head and thought about it, "These little sin slaves have no hope in their hearts, they are only afraid of slacking off and not being able to train them." It's a wrong idea, and they shouldn't have chosen their ......."

The envoys of Beiyan were a little surprised when they saw that they had already chosen someone, but at this moment, seeing that Mei Changsu had the intention of retreating, his heart settled down again, and he sneered: "Mr. is really hard-mouthed, and at this time, he will have to be strong, in fact, as long as he admits a mistake, our Baili warriors are not stingy people." ”

Mei Changsu stared at him fixedly, and saw that he was a little uncomfortable, Fang sighed and said, "Su Mou repeatedly gave you the steps, but you just refused to come down." Since I have to give it a try, I have to be sorry for the Hundred Miles Warriors. ”

Beiyan made the ministers angry and was about to fight back, but the eunuch who had been ordered to go to the Youting Court just now had returned and said, "Your Majesty, the slave brought five children." ”

"Well, call them all up."

"Yes."

Following the eunuch, five small figures huddled up in the upper hall, curled up in a ball and knelt on the ground.

King Jing had already begun to feel puzzled, but now that he saw that Tingsheng was in the middle of it, he understood most of it in his heart, and saw that the attention of the people in the palace was there, so he hurriedly found an opportunity to quietly say a few words to the imperial sister Jing Ning who was sitting beside him.

"Raise your head and report your age, which family are the descendants of the criminals?" Emperor Liang's tone was cold and authentic.

The five children were all frightened, and under the low urging of the eunuch, Fang replied intermittently with trembling voices. When it was Tingsheng's turn, he turned pale and whispered, "Sin slave...... Eleven years old, Yuan Taihe ...... University scholar Jingkui...... grandson...... Inkechang case...... Accountability ......"

Mei Changsu suddenly felt a sour heart, and hurriedly took a sip of tea to cover up the past. Now imagine that back then, when they were imprisoned in the secluded court and did not get any help from the outside world, King Qi's daughters were able to work together to find a fake identity for Tingsheng, a widow who was born by luck, and shelter him from the crown prince and King Yu. Unfortunately, it is sad that these righteous women have been tortured, and few of them are still alive now.

After the five children reported back, Emperor Liang didn't pay too much attention to it, and said to Mei Changsu after a sigh: "Su Qing can still make these children still make it?" ”

"Five is too much, you can't take advantage of the hundred miles warrior too much, three is enough," Mei Changsu looked at it casually and pointed to the three people, including Tingsheng, "I'm afraid that the minister will take him back to his residence to train for two days, can Your Majesty allow it?" ”

"I'm right. If I can win after two days, I will be rewarded. ”

Mei Changsu sighed: "Your Majesty is of course deeply gracious, but the princess is right, these children are slaves of sin, and there is nowhere to use the bounty and silver." ”

Emperor Liang couldn't help laughing and said, "You misunderstood, I mean to reward you." ”

"Huh?" Mei Changsu was stunned, "The minister doesn't need to." They are the ones who want to contribute, so it is better for Your Majesty to give them some grace that they can withhold. ”

"Naturally, they also want to be rewarded," Emperor Liang saw that the envoys of Beiyan on the side heard this time, and his face was as angry as earth, and his heart couldn't help but be happy, "If you win, I will reward you...... Belch...... ......"

He was thinking about what to reward, Princess Jingning interjected: "Father, you have to give a heavy reward, so that they are willing to die, and Mr. Su is good to train." What the daughter means, the greatest reward for these criminal slaves is to remove their hard labor, so that they can go out of the secluded court to find a place to stand on their own, even if the father is a bounty of gold and silver, it is better to reward this. ”

Emperor Liang saw that his youngest daughter was so sympathetic to these little sin slaves today, in order to make her happy, plus those children didn't matter, he didn't think much about it, and nodded immediately: "Okay." I will depend on you, and if they make meritorious contributions, I will be exempted from hard labor and properly placed in the Department of Internal Affairs. ”

Princess Jingning was overjoyed: "Thank you, father." The daughter knows that her father is the most sacred and benevolent. ”

"You're soft-hearted. But the girl's family, it's nothing to be soft-hearted. Emperor Liang glanced at her lovingly, and then turned to everyone, "Let's disperse for the time being." Two days later, before the county lord's literary exam, let's take a look at Su Qing's training skills, and then start dancing and writing. ”

Everyone immediately stood up and said in unison, "Obey." ”
