Chapter XII
"Kirin?" Mei Changsu smiled and said, "The county lord looks at me, does he have anything to do with that guy who is not like each other?" ”
"You can still laugh?" The expression of the Nihuang County Lord was very admirable, "Langya Pavilion's comments have never been missed, of course, it is better to believe it than to believe it." If it's just that the princes are recruiting talents for their own mansions, you can't shirk it, and they won't have any obsessions. But with the comment 'Kirin's talent', you're in big trouble. Before they get you, both of them will persevere, but once someone gets you, then the other party who does not succeed will inevitably do their best to destroy you. Don't you have any other feelings about such a situation? ”
"Of course there is," Mei Changsu said very seriously, "I feel that the Lord of Langya Pavilion must have an enmity with me." ”
The Nihuang County Lord couldn't help but smile, half-turned, leaned on the railing, and his eyes flashed slightly: "After meeting with Mr., I think the Langya Pavilion Lord may be right again this time......"
"Please, the county lord," Mei Changsu hurriedly bowed and said, "I have no enmity with the county lord, I have already been on the grill, why should the county lord come to add a fire?" ”
"This fire has already been burned, and I advise you to pick one quickly."
"Hurry up and be hunted down by another too?"
"It's better to have at least one person who will desperately protect you than to let both of them die and hunt you down together." The Nihuang County Lord's tone suddenly turned cold, "Who will you choose?" Prince or King Yu? ”
Mei Changsu had an extremely proud look between his eyebrows, but in an instant, he was still the idle sick young man. "Good ministers choose the lord to do things, didn't you come to Jinling to achieve some achievements?" The Nihuang County Lord asked.
"The disabled and sick body, how can you talk about any meritorious deeds? I just want to take a break. ”
"Come to the capital for a rest?" The Nihuang County Lord looked into the distance with his eyes, but mocked in his mouth, "Jiang Zuo Meilang is different, he is really good at picking places." ”
Mei Changsu ignored her sarcasm, and said lightly: "The county lord is also unexpectedly concerned about the direction of the court?" ”
Nihuang County Lord Huo Ran turned his head, his eyes were full of light, and he shot at Mei Changsu with extreme strength, and the momentum was so strong that it seemed that the flames were rolling straight in, and ordinary people were only afraid that they would be shocked immediately.
But Mei Changsu looked at him calmly, and there was a smile on his lips from beginning to end.
After a long time, the Nihuang County Lord finally retracted the anger he deliberately exuded, snorted coldly, and said, "My Mu clan has been guarding Yunnan for generations, and it can be said that they are interdependent with the imperial court. The direction of the situation has a great impact on our domain, so why not care? ”
"I just think," Mei Changsu bowed, "In fact, the changes of the throne in the past dynasties have nothing to do with Yunnan, no matter who has the position of the Son of Heaven in the future, the Mu clan who guards the Southern Domain for Daliang will not be easily touched." Why should the county lord be so interested in the battle for succession? ”
For this question, the Nihuang County Lord did not answer at all, but looked up to the sky and smiled, flying with ease, that kind of brilliant bearing, although it appeared in the body of a woman, but it was full of the pride and domineering of the princes of one party, which was heartbreaking, you can imagine how shocking it was when she launched an offensive like a raging flame on the battlefield. If the young prince who had just come of age to become a lord had half the demeanor of his sister, it would be enough to make the Yunnan royal palace the most difficult to shake in the world.
Mei Changsu's eyebrows moved, and he already understood what this female commander of the southern border meant.
It is true that the Mu Mansion in Yunnan is loyal to the imperial court, but it must also be able to contain it. The heroine of the Nihuang County Lord, how can a casual master make her bow down? What kind of person is the future Son of Heaven, and how did she win the throne, how can she not come and see for herself?
"Mr. Su," the Nihuang County Lord smiled and looked back, "Would you like to do this county lord a favor?" ”
Mei Changsu hurriedly said: "If the county lord has orders, he should do his best." ”
"Your Majesty has a decree, and the top ten in the martial arts examination will be eligible to participate in the literary examination. I would like to ask Mr. Su to be the examiner of the literary examination and help the county lord arrange the seats of these suitors. ”
Mei Changsu was quite surprised by this request, and his first reaction was to refuse: "The text test is judged by His Majesty, how can there be any reason to say more?" ”
"Who doesn't know Mr. Su's name? Your Majesty will not object. The Nihuang County Lord's eyes were gloomy, and he was a little gentle, "Since they all persuaded me that a woman would marry sooner or later, it wouldn't be wrong to choose carefully." ”
Mei Changsu pondered for a moment and asked, "Is the seat of this literary test used to confirm the order of the county lord's competition?" ”
"Yes, the winner of the literary test will have a chance to compete with me first, if he wins, the next nine will have no chance."
"What if this person loses?"
"Replaced by the next digit. If ten people can't win against me, then I won't be able to marry this time. The Nihuang County Lord sneered, as if he had already seen the ending she said, "Can Mr. agree?" ”
Mei Changsu knew the current situation, no matter how low-key he was, it would be useless, but he was not afraid of this limelight, so he nodded slowly, stared at the sword and sword shadow on the platform in front of the building, and sighed: "It would be nice if there was really a destined person of the county lord here......
The Nihuang County Lord took a step closer, stood side by side with him, looked indifferently at the battle below, and asked softly as if muttering, "Why didn't Mr. Su participate?" ”
"Me?" Mei Changsu smiled, "With a body like mine, I'm afraid that I will be knocked out in the first round." When the time comes, I still want to be a unicorn, so it's good if I don't turn it into a meatloaf......"
Hearing his description, the Nihuang County Lord couldn't help laughing, "Mr. Su is really funny. I don't know what kind of disease my husband has? ”
"It's just a chronic illness, and it won't hinder your life for the time being." Mei Changsu replied casually, still casually looking at the crowd below, I don't know what I saw, suddenly my eyelashes trembled slightly, and my eyes shook slightly. Although this throbbing was like a light feather dotting water, without a trace in an instant, what kind of person the Nihuang County Lord was, he immediately noticed it, and hurriedly followed his line of sight, but after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't tell what he saw.
"Yingfeng Tower is not the place where I have stayed for a long time, if the county lord has no other instructions, I should go to the brocade shed below." Mei Changsu Wen said, "Besides, Qilin always doesn't go back, won't the prince and His Royal Highness King Yu be in a hurry?" ”
"That's right, it's better to see you sooner." The Nihuang County Lord also nodded and smiled, "Then don't delay Mr., please." ”
Mei Changsu gave up his hand and made a farewell salute, and the southern handsome, who had never even paid much attention to the princess and prince, bowed down and returned the full salute to him. After the two broke up, one returned to the warm pavilion, and the other went down the stairs directly, and Feiliu naturally followed behind.
From the exit on the side of Yingfeng Tower to the entrance of the Jinpeng District, it is connected by a long road, and the guards are guarding outside the wall, and the whole road is unusually quiet. Mei Changsu walked slowly, while looking down and thinking, until Feiliu said "ah" behind him, he raised his head and saw the oncoming sturdy figure.
As the commander of the forbidden army, Meng Zhi was responsible for the safety of the palace, and the emperor's presence here, his responsibility was heavy, and he had to patrol around and be extra careful. However, Mei Changsu was ordered by the Empress Dowager to enter Yingfeng Tower, and of course he couldn't have been unaware of the overall situation, so when he bumped into him head-on at this time, he didn't come forward to check, but said hello with a smile.
Mei Changsu also smiled slightly, nodded as a salute, the two of them had their own things, as if they met by chance, no one stopped to say a word or two.
However, at the moment when they passed each other, Mei Changsu's lips suddenly moved a few times, and he spit out a sentence with an extremely light voice, but an extremely stern tone:
"Listen, you told both of them to go back for me!"
