"This!" A large oval-shaped pear is handed to the eyes, looking plump and moist, and very delicious.

"Why did you give me this?" Mei Changsu smiled slightly, teasing the young man in front of him.

"Max!"

"Is the biggest one for Brother Su?"

"Hmm!"

Mei Changsu slanted his eyes slightly, saw Meng Zhi sitting on the side raising a glass of water, smiled secretly, and deliberately asked again: "Feiliu, you tell Brother Su, what color is this pear?" ”

"Deep white!"

Meng Zhi "fluttered" and squirted out a large mouthful of water that had just been drunk into his mouth, and glared at Feiliu while choking: "Deep...... What color is dark? ”

Feiliu snorted, ignored him, and turned his head away.

"Actually, we Feiliu are the ones who can make up words the most." Mei Changsu's eyes were filled with warm warmth, and he gently stroked his flowing hair, and the latter seemed to be able to feel his love, leaned over, and handed the pear in his hand again.

"Feiliu, I can't eat this now," Mei Changsu smiled, "This is a frozen pear......

"Frozen Pear ......"

"It's just to freeze it so that it can be stored for a longer time, but when you want to eat it, you must thaw it first, otherwise you won't be able to bite it."

Feiliu's eyes widened, looking at the pear in his left hand, then at the pear in his right, and finally raised the smaller one and took a bite, froze.

"You can't bite it, can you?" Meng Zhi had regained his demeanor as a master at this time, and leaned over and said, "You have to soak it in water to thaw it, and you can eat it when it is soft." ”

Feiliu digested the sentence for a moment, and then immediately disappeared.

"Actually, that pear can't be considered the biggest," Meng Zhi shook his head and sighed, "The largest round object in the Imperial City right now should be the head of Yin Gaosheng of Jingzhao Mansion, right?" ”

Mei Changsu couldn't help but smile, "Brother Meng speaks interestingly, even if that tall man hadn't encountered these tricky things, his head should be bigger than Shui Li, right?" ”

Meng Zhi himself couldn't help laughing, "What do you say, it's so idle to make two cases that give people such a headache." I see the way you tease Feiliu, and I know that you are not in a bad mood today. ”

The location where the two are now is an elegant and chic tea house in the south of the city, although facing the street, it is not noisy, each tea room is a single bamboo house, and the decoration is very tasteful.

Since the case of hiding the body in the dry well was reported to the official, everyone in Jinling has known two things. First, there are corpses in the well of the orchid garden; Second, the newly emerging celebrity Su Zhe wants to buy a garden.

The Orchid Garden is deserted and dilapidated, and it is a murder scene, of course, it can't be lived, so Su Zhe should still need to buy a new mansion. So whether he wanted to take the opportunity to make friends, or he was indeed kindly recommended, or he really wanted to sell the property, in short, the invitations from all parties to invite him to see the garden were constantly coming, and people were overwhelmed. However, since he still lives in Xie Mansion, of course, most of these troubles are blocked by Xie Bi, and Mei Changsu has gone out for the third time except for the mansion recommended by Yunnan Mu and Xia Dong.

"What do you think of the house I chose?" Meng Zhi moved closer and asked.

Mei Changsu slowly glanced back at him: "Could it be that you really plan to sell that house to me?" ”

Meng Zhi joked: "Although it's a bit like I'm in a hurry to make friends with celebrities, you really give me face, and you're willing to go out with me to take a look." ”

"What kind of weight do you have to be the commander, and you don't dare not give you face. You see, I accepted your invitation today, Xie Bi obviously felt that it was a matter of course, if I refused you, he would be surprised, right? Mei Changsu smiled faintly, "What's more, my initial fame in the capital didn't depend entirely on the battle between you and Feiliu?" Although I didn't arrange it, it was an unexpected effect. ”

"Feiliu's boy is indeed a genius, and after a few days of not seeing him, he seems to have made progress again. I heard that he defeated Xia Dong not long ago? ”

"Hmm." Mei Changsu replied casually, as if he didn't care, "This kid is calm, and he is naturally easy to share with martial arts." However, after all, he is still young, and his internal strength is not pure enough, so if he really encounters a pure yang master like you, he will inevitably suffer. ”

"What's the matter, he still has a lot of time to practice." Meng Zhi knocked on the teacup and asked for the second time, "What do you think of the house I chose?" ”

Mei Changsu thought for a moment and said, "It can be seen that you chose it." “

"Don't talk so poisonously, although I don't understand those towers and pavilions, but I know your thoughts, so I went to great lengths to find this residence for you, and you still don't appreciate it."

"That's what I meant," Mei Changsu looked at him with warm eyes, "Brother Meng, sure enough, you know what I want best." ”

Although Meng Zhi was a little complacent about inviting credit, he was a little embarrassed by his direct thanks, scratched his head and said, "I also know that the scenery in that house is indeed a little worse......"

"The landscape has to be renovated, otherwise people will wonder how I chose such a house. But there is that one benefit, the top ten scenic spots. Brother Meng, it's really hard to bother you. ”

"I didn't bother too much," Meng Zhi said embarrassedly, "I also found it when I was wandering around, the back wall of this house is only a few feet away from the back wall of King Jing's Mansion, because there is a ditch in the middle, which makes no sense, and there are trees on all sides, plus the main doors of the two houses open to different streets, it feels like the two houses are not even in the same block, and it is indeed not easy to find that the two houses are so close." Xiaoshu, don't you have someone under you who specializes in vertical art? After you move in, dig a secret passage between your backyard and King Jing's backyard, even if you don't have a public relationship here, he can secretly go through the secret passage at night to have a private meeting with you......

Mei Changsu looked at the number one master of Daliang weakly, and said with a smile: "Although it's a good idea, can you not learn words like Feiliu?" What is a private meeting? ”

"Pretty much ......" Meng Zhi thought for a moment and then asked, "Aren't you going to make it clear now?" The matter of the county lord last time, the prince will know sooner or later that you single-handedly sabotaged it. He's not a man of measure, maybe he'll take any revenge against you, I think you should pretend to obey King Yu's side first, even if it's not rare for his shadow, at least you don't have to be enemies on both sides, right? ”

"Don't worry, they're all busy now, and they can't even bother to clean me up." A cold smile appeared on Mei Changsu's face, "There is a way that only defense and not attack is an absolute defeat, since King Yu has bitten the respect of Hubu Shangshulou with the dry well case, the prince will inevitably stare at He Wenxin's case." I think...... He Jingzhong will definitely find a way to bring his son's murder case to the Criminal Department for trial. ”

"The Criminal Department is the world of the king, can the prince keep an eye on it?"

"It's true that King Yu has the upper hand, but He Wenxin's case is too blatant, Wen Yuanbo is ruthless, and the criminal department will inevitably have some twists and turns."

"Of course you're happiest to see them fighting each other." Meng Zhi saw Mei Changsu retract his hand into his sleeve, and hurriedly pushed the stove over, "But even if He Wenxin is targeted to death by the prince, it is not He Jingzhong himself, and as far as King Yu is concerned, there is not much loss." ”

A meaningful smile suddenly appeared on Mei Changsu's lips, and he said softly: "If he knows how to restrain his subordinates, He Wenxin's case will indeed not hurt him much...... His biggest weakness at present is still in Qingguo Gongbaiye. ”

Meng Zhi slapped his thigh and said, "Speaking of which, I was just about to ask you." I think when I returned to Beijing in summer and winter, most of them have collected a lot of evidence, why is there not even a bubble in this land invasion case so far, what do you say the emperor is thinking? ”

He was thinking...... Who is going to host this land invasion case......"

"Huh?"

Mei Changsu flipped his palm over and stuck it on the stove to keep warm, with a faint expression on his face, as if he was gossiping: "The emperor wants to handle the land invasion case, mainly because the trend of the powerful to annex land at will has become more and more prosperous recently, which hinders the country's capital. But for such a large case, it is a difficult question who should be handed over to host it. I think he hasn't decided on the presiding judge yet, so he hasn't moved for a long time. ”

As the commander of the forbidden army, Meng Zhi was of course not a simple and rude person, he thought about it for a while, nodded and said: "That's right, the Hanging Mirror Division is only responsible for investigating the case, and has no right to conclude the trial...... But ......"

Mei Changsu sneered: "His Majesty the Emperor is like a mirror in his heart, the three divisions will be tried, if there is no person who is both neutral and calm to press on it, a good case of land invasion will immediately become a party dispute, and the emperor's original intention of establishing authority and vigilance by investigating this case will not be achieved." ”

Meng Zhi frowned and sighed: "No wonder the emperor is hesitant, this matter is really difficult to do." ”

Mei Changsu glanced at him with a smile and said, "So it's up to you to relieve the emperor's worries." ”

"Me?" Meng Zhi was taken aback, "What can I do?" ”

"Of course, there is a way." Mei Changsu leaned back with the stove in his arms, and the corners of his lips were lightly raised, "You can recommend someone to the emperor." ”

"Who?"

"King Jing."

Meng Zhi stood up suddenly, "What did you say?" ”

"If you want to suppress the people of the three divisions, no courtier can do it, you can only rely on the royal family. Let the prince go, this case will be out of control, let King Yu go, it will definitely be a big thing and a small thing. King Jing has been away from the center of the court for many years, and he is upright, so let him try this case, then he can really achieve the emperor's goal of handling this case. ”

"But for King Jing, won't he offend people because of this?"

"How can you not offend people if you want to enter this circle? The point is whether it's worth it or not. Mei Changsu's voice was light and cold, "Completing this case just right, first, can win the hearts of the people, second, it can establish authority, and third, it will show its talents." Moreover, if you offend some, you will inevitably get the support of others. Standing forever in the distance, no one can see his presence......"

Meng Zhi looked at him in a daze for a long time before slowly exhaling and saying, "You have made up your mind, naturally you can't be wrong." There is no such thing as a perfect thing in this world, and I think you must have already imagined it step by step. But what if the emperor doesn't agree? ”

"He'll agree."

"So sure?"

"Because he didn't have a better choice." Mei Changsu pursed the corners of his mouth and swallowed a sigh that had slid to his lips.

There is another reason besides having no choice. That is, Emperor Liang did not love King Jing, and he would not think too much about the difficulties and consequences that King Jing would face after taking over this mission, so it was easier to make a decision.

For King Jing, this is the first step for him to officially embark on the road of no return.

Once you take a step, you can't look back.
