Yesterday, when the shooting incident in the United States just happened, a friend insisted that the murderer must be a Chinese student, I was not very happy, I made a bet with him, and I got up this morning and found that I had won~~~ But no matter who the murderer is, it is a disaster~~~~

Emperor Liang left the East Palace Changxin Hall in a rage, did not sit on the chariot, did not want to be helped, walked too quickly, just arrived at the Yongfeng Pavilion, he suddenly felt that his eyes were dark, and he fell backwards, but fortunately Meng Zhi quickly supported him, so that he was not injured. Gao Zhan hurriedly took the soothing incense box from his sleeve, blew some medicinal powder into Emperor Liang's nose, he sneezed, and his red eyes gradually cleared.

"Your Majesty......" Meng Zhi took his back for him, helped him to sit on the rocks on the side of the road, and slowly persuaded, "The dragon body is the most important, please take care of your Majesty." ”

Emperor Liang took the handkerchief handed by Gao Zhan and wiped his face and eyes, and most of his body leaned on Meng Zhi's arm, gasping heavily. After a long time, the anger that had just filled his chest gradually subsided, replaced by a melancholy and sadness in his heart, tears could not help but fall in his eyes, he coughed with his back on his back, and the wrinkles on his yellowed face seemed to be several deeper.

Meng Qing ...... The East Palace is so resentful, is it ...... Is something really wrong? ”

Meng Zhi was stunned by his question, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. He went to Emperor Liang's side and served as the commander of the forbidden army, and the time was not long, but over the years, he had only seen His Majesty the Emperor control the princes under his subordinates, with all kinds of means, never self-doubt and powerlessness, when had he seen him so haggard and emotional, weak and sad like an ordinary father? Looking at the gray hair, trembling dry hands, and cloudy old eyes, recalling his fierce temperament when he was decisive in killing, people couldn't help but be in a trance, and felt extremely strange.

Perhaps, when people get old, they will really change a lot......

"Your Majesty, here in the East Palace, what are you going to ......" Meng Zhi asked for a while, but felt that it was inappropriate, and hurriedly swallowed back.

Emperor Liang raised his sleeve and wiped his tears, gritted his teeth and thought for a long time, his face was hesitant, and no one dared to ask him. After half a cup of tea, he ordered: "Today's events are strictly ordered not to be spread outside, so hide them first." ”

Meng Zhi and Gao Zhan were a little surprised when they heard this, but they didn't show it on their faces, and only silently accepted the order. However, Emperor Liang is not a person who is lenient, and after muttering for a while, he added: "From now on, the East Palace will be banned, and no one will be allowed to enter and leave at will." ”

Meng Zhi asked hesitantly, "Including the crown prince?" ”

"Including the crown prince!" Emperor Liang's tone was sad, but he was also resolute, "The third division of the crown prince is not allowed to enter unless he is ordered." I will ask you to do this. ”

"Please forgive your majesty," Meng Zhi knelt down and said, "The matter of the secluded prince is very important, and it is difficult to fulfill it only by serving the ministers. I ask Your Majesty to grant a decree. ”

Emperor Liang glanced at him and was about to speak, when Gao Zhan suddenly said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has chased after him, kneeling by the immortal liquid pool, can you see it?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Tell him to go back, I'm ...... now I don't want to see him......" Emperor Liang closed his eyes, his voice very tired, "...... Come back to the palace......"

"Your Majesty," Meng Zhi was a little anxious, "the minister's side ......"

"Rumor!" Gao Zhan's shrill voice sounded a little harshly, interrupting Meng Zhi's words.

Emperor Liang had already gotten up at this time, and stepped on the pedal of the chariot tremblingly, shaking. Under Gao Zhan's command, three or four little eunuchs surrounded him and helped him, and finally placed him to sit steadily.

"Your Majesty......" Meng Zhi waited for him to sit down, and was about to say more, when Gao Zhan said in a loud voice, "Get up-" and drowned out his voice. When Meng Zhi frowned and took a step closer, Emperor Liang was already leaning on the soft pillow in the middle of the chariot, closing his eyes and waving his hand.

His face was full of joy at the moment, and the meaning of the gesture was obviously not to be disturbed anymore, although Meng Zhi was embarrassed, he had to stop asking no more questions, and knelt down to send him up.

The holy car left, and the East Palace was as silent as death. Meng Zhi pressed the emotion in his heart and immediately began to deal with the follow-up matters. It is not difficult to hide the matter of today's Changxin Hall without spreading the word, there are not many people present, and it is natural to strictly order the forbidden army to silence it, and the people in the inner court Gao Zhan will deal with it, and the people in the East Palace dare not say a word more, so they simply blocked the news very tightly.

However, it is more difficult to prohibit everyone from entering and leaving the East Palace, and the prince himself is good to say, he himself knows the reason for the confinement, and he does not dare to fight in despair, and when he is quiet, the others in the East Palace dare not speak out, so the most difficult part is mainly outside. Others are okay, the prince young master, Shaobao, Taifu and others have to come to see the prince every day, although these people are not in the party struggle, but they are dedicated to performing their duties, the prince has been, and they are the most fierce scolding immediately on the book, but when the prince was moved to the Guijia Palace, they are the ones who protect the most, but such a quaint minister, now there is no real power in the court, not as important as the previous dynasty, so the prince respects them, but does not rely on them, the king values them, but does not fear them, many times they are symbolicIt does not play a big role in the real saber-rattling and deceitful party struggle. But regardless of whether they have real power or not, these old gentlemen are the third division of the prince, and Meng Zhi only relies on the four words "Holy Commandment", and he can't explain the reasons in detail, so it's really difficult to stop them. Besides, such a major event as the claustrophobic prince of the East Palace that shook the world did not even have Daoming's edict, and it would inevitably attract doubts.

After being tossed by the third division for a full hour, Meng Zhi, who had a dry mouth, suddenly realized that his approach was too stupid, what kind of reasoning, where is the time to debate now, this matter is not up to him to debate at all, so it was wrong from the beginning.

Thinking of this, Meng Zhi immediately understood what to do. After the excuse was evaded, he specially assigned a few stunned soldiers to guard the palace gate, no matter what people said, he came back with a hard sentence of "in the holy word", who wanted to reason with these soldiers, the scene was absolutely unclear and incomprehensible. The three divisions were so angry that they jumped to their feet and shouted for these soldiers to come to Meng Zhi, but they were stunned and replied, "I am not qualified to talk to the commander", and they did not move a step, almost making the old man angry.

Avoiding the officials of the East Palace and those old ministers, Meng Zhi was a little more relaxed, came back to transfer the shift, rearranged the most handy person on duty, and arranged to go to the East Palace. Fortunately, Emperor Liang fell ill after returning to the palace, and he has been lying in Zhiluo Palace without moving, saving Meng Zhi a lot of trouble. By the morning of the next day, the news of the prince's ban gradually spread, and people from all sides came to inquire in waves. The East Palace can't enter, the internal supervisor Gao Zhan is strictly controlled, and the forbidden army can't pry his mouth, the more there is no real source of information, the more evil the guess, even the King of Yu can't care about showing the appearance of avoiding suspicion, and he came to visit Meng Zhi in person, wanting to find out some words. However, he pounced, and neither the Meng Mansion nor the Commander's Mansion found anyone, thinking that he was on duty in the inner garden, but after searching for it, he was not there, and it can be said that he disappeared without a trace.

I don't know the real reason, it's not good to formulate corresponding countermeasures, plus Emperor Liang is sick and doesn't go to court, and only let Concubine Jing serve in the harem, and even the queen and Concubine Yue can't see him, and he can't hear his true attitude, whether it is planning to protect it, or preparing to add fuel to the fire, all of them dare not act rashly, all kinds of strange arguments are circulating in private, and the government and the opposition are in chaos.

Of course, although Meng Zhi, one of the important figures in the incident, does not know where he is hidden, he certainly did not really disappear. The No. 1 master of Daliang, who no one could find, was standing in King Jing's bedroom at this time, gesturing with a reassuring gesture to the surprised owner of the room.

"Your Highness, don't worry, no one has found me coming," Meng Zhi said in a low voice, "I think it's better to come and inform Your Highness as soon as possible about the matter of the East Palace." ”

King Jing was originally a person with a calm heart, and he has been more experienced recently, so after being shocked, he quickly calmed down. After instructing the henchmen outside the door not to let anyone in, he pulled Meng Zhi into the inner room, and while opening the secret door, he said, "Let's talk about it after seeing Mr. Su, lest you say it a second time." ”

Meng Zhi agreed, followed King Jing into the secret passage, and came to the secret room that he had been to several times. King Jing pulled the bell rope placed on the wall and notified Mei Changsu of his arrival, but after waiting twice as long as usual, there was still no strategist appearing, which made the two people in the secret room a little uneasy, but they couldn't go directly to see what was going on.

After waiting for another stick of incense, there was finally movement in the secret passage on the other side of Su's house, but even King Jing, whose martial arts were inferior to Meng Zhi, could be sure that the person who came silently after the door rang must not be Mei Changsu.

Sure enough, after the moment, Feiliu's young and handsome face appeared at the entrance of the secret room, and said in a cold tone: "Wait! ”

Meng Zhi glanced at King Jing and saw that he didn't look angry, so he took a step forward and asked, "Feiliu, did Brother Su call you here?" ”

"Hmm!"

"Where's Brother Su?"

"Outside!"

"In the bedroom outside?"

"Outside!"

"In the living room?"

"Hmm!"

Meng Zhi probably understood, "Did someone come to talk to Brother Su?" ”

"Hmm!"

"Who is it?"

"Vipers!"

Meng Zhi was taken aback, "Who do you say?" ”

"Vipers!" Feiliu didn't like to answer the same question over and over again, glaring at him impatiently.

Meng Zhi thought for a moment and confirmed, "Is it King Yu?" ”

"Hmm!"

Hearing this, King Jing and Meng Zhi both understood the situation, relaxed slightly, and sat down peacefully. Feiliu was still standing outside the door, looking at the two of them seriously, with no intention of leaving. King Jing's heart suddenly moved, beckoned to him, and asked, "Feiliu, why do you call King Yu a poisonous snake?" ”

"Brother Su!"

After King Jing saw the way Mei Changsu and Feiliu got along many times, he also figured out a little bit of the young man's way of thinking, and guessed: "Brother Su told you that his name is Viper?" ”

"Hmm!"

"Do you know why Brother Su called him a poisonous snake?"

"Yes!"

"You know?" King Jing was a little surprised, "Why? ”

"Disgusting!"

"Who...... Who's disgusting? Honorable King? ”

"Brother Su!"

King Jing and Meng Zhi glanced at each other, both of them didn't quite understand, and after thinking about it for a long time, they came up with a reasonably reasonable explanation, "Feiliu, you shouldn't mean that Brother Su is a very disgusting person, but that he will feel disgusting after seeing King Yu, right?" ”

"Hmm!"

King Jing's eyes rolled, and he suddenly became curious, and asked again: "King Yu is a poisonous snake, so what am I?" ”

Feiliu tilted his head and looked at him for a while, and said slowly, "Buffalo." ”

Meng Zhi was almost choked, "Buffalo? Why do you think His Royal Highness King Jing is a buffalo? ”

"I don't know!"

"Don't know?" Meng Zhi was really confused this time, "Did you choose the word buffalo to refer to Your Highness at random?" ”

"I think," King Jing didn't have a smile on his face, but it was calm, "Feiliu meant to say that he didn't know why his brother Su called me a buffalo. ”

Meng Zhi's heart jumped, and he hurriedly defended Mei Changsu: "No, Mr. Su is a serious person, how can he give His Highness a nickname?" That's not the way he's always done. ”

King Jing said lightly: "Maybe this Mr. Su has another side that we don't know?" Besides, he wasn't the first person to call me a buffalo, and he used to be the eldest brother...... And Xiaoshu, they all called me that, they often said that I don't like to drink tea and water, and my temper is as stubborn as a cow, no matter how I look at it, I am a buffalo......"

Meng Zhi was really so frightened that he couldn't even hold his breath, and the muscles on his face stiffened, as if he didn't know what kind of expression to make. However, it didn't hurt for him to lose his temper for a while, because Mei Changsu walked in at this time, and King Jing's eyes were drawn to him, staring at his adviser fixedly.

"Sorry for being late. King Yu had just come to discuss some things before sending him away. Mei Changsu was explaining, seeing the very different expressions of King Jing and Meng Zhi, he immediately realized that the atmosphere in the room was wrong, "What's wrong?" You guys just ...... What are you talking about? ”

"It's nothing," King Jing stared into his eyes tightly, but his tone was very light, "We're talking about ...... Buffalo thing ......"
