Chapter 111: Human Affection

I went to the hospital for a routine physical examination this morning, so the update was late, please forgive me~~

______________________ this is the dividing line for late arrivals____________

When King Jing said this, the most nervous thing in the entire secret room was Meng Zhi, and the most relaxed was Feiliu, Mei Changsu, who was between the two of them, didn't show any panic, but it was by no means pretending to be relaxed, he just narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was reacting to what King Jing meant, and then he seemed to understand, and then he slightly showed some surprise, guilt and panic, and slowly turned sideways, and called out in a reproachful tone: "Feiliu...... Are you talking nonsense? ”

"Nope!" The young man didn't understand why he was blamed, his eyes widened, his mouth slightly open, and he looked very aggrieved.

"Feiliu, didn't I tell you that Sister Nihuang was joking, can't you learn it?"

"Yourself!"

Mei Changsu seemed to be choked up by the young man's rebuttal, paused and said: "Yes, Brother Su himself has learned it twice, and it's not right, let's change it together in the future, do you hear?" ”

"Oh." Feiliu tilted his head and glanced at King Jing again, "Change!" ”

"I'm sorry, Your Highness." Mei Changsu bowed to King Jing at this time, "After the year, the lord of Nihuang County came to be a guest, and when we chatted, she talked about some old things, and I thought it was interesting to hear it, so I knew that it was very rude to call His Highness like this, but I couldn't help but use it twice in private, who knew that it was learned by Feiliu's child." This is my abrupt and presumptuous, please forgive your Highness. ”

"It turned out that I heard what Nihuang said," King Jing's facial expression did not change greatly, but there was a trace of disappointment in his lowered eyes, "I thought it was ......"

He deliberately stopped halfway through his speech, but Mei Changsu stood quietly and didn't answer the conversation, but Meng Zhi couldn't help but ask: "Why do you think?" ”

"I thought Mr. Su used to ...... Do you know anyone else......" King Jing's eyes were confused for a moment, and then he suddenly concentrated, turned to Qingming, and said with a slight smile, "I didn't expect that the Nihuang County Lord really valued Mr. Su, and even the old things in the past were willing to tell you." ”

"Don't Your Highness think I'm a good listener?" Mei Changsu smiled calmly, "I also have a lot of respect for the Nihuang County Lord, so I didn't hide a lot of opinions from her." Although she still doesn't know that I have joined the curtain of His Highness, she knows that I used to be very much admired King Qi, and I once had the intention to serve him, and now I am only forced by current affairs to deal with King Yu, and I am just a snake and a snake. With this consensus, she was less wary of me, and said some old things that were not important and unconfidential, which was nothing more than expressing her feelings. Besides, the county lord really has no close friends around her, she and Your Highness are in charge of the same military power, and the relationship is deep, so you can't be too close to each other in order to avoid suspicion; There is an old knot between Xia and Dong, and many words can only be avoided; Mu was young and young, he hadn't gone through that period of time, and he didn't know about those events...... Although I can't be regarded as her friend, at this age, this experience, I can more or less resonate with her. I think this is probably the main reason why the county lord has a blue eye on me, right? ”

King Jing glanced at him, nodded with a serious expression, and said, "The heroine of the Nihuang County Lord is a heroine, and her insight into people is far greater than mine. It is only recently that I have been in contact with him a lot, and I have come to realize that he is far from the kind of strategist I imagined before. ”

His praise is from the bottom of his heart, and there is no pretense, Mei Changsu can naturally distinguish it, so he is not vulgar and humble, and only bows slightly to show his courtesy in response. Seeing that the relationship between the two of them was harmonious, the happiest person was Meng Zhi, who was watching, he rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "The monarch and the minister will meet in the wind and clouds, nothing more than that." His Royal Highness King Jing is lenient and upright, Mr. Su is amazing, you two join forces, what can't you do? ”

"Commander Meng's confidence is more than ours," Mei Changsu sat down slowly on the edge of the table and smiled, "But no matter how ambitious you are, you still have to do things step by step." Now that we have been chatting for so long, what is the business of the Grand Commander, should we talk about it, right? ”

Being reminded by him, Meng Zhi immediately looked at him and said, "Your Majesty has imprisoned the prince in the East Palace, you all know it, right?" ”

"I don't know the details." Mei Changsu stared at him and said, "How things happened, and what Your Majesty's words and deeds were at that time, you have to ask the Great Commander to explain in detail from the beginning." ”

"Okay." Meng Zhi reminisced with determination, and slowly recounted the details of how he was ordered to go to the East Palace with Emperor Liang that day. Although he was not a man of Chinese speech, he had a good memory, his words were simple and accurate, and he could describe the situation of the day clearly and clearly.

Mei Changsu waited for him to finish speaking, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Is the prince still serving by the old people of the East Palace by his side?" ”

"Yes. However, I was worried that he would behave inappropriately in desperation, so I sent a clever and reliable person to monitor him at all times. Meng Zhi said and sighed, "This prince is ruined, but I don't know what His Majesty is planning?" ”

"According to my judgment, it will not be abolished for the time being, and even if it is abolished, a new prince will not be established immediately." Mei Changsu turned to King Jing, "Does Your Highness understand what I mean?" ”

King Jing nodded, "Understood." ”

He understood, but he didn't. However, this Grand Commander was not a curious person, so he didn't figure it out after thinking about it, and he didn't ask questions.

"The East Palace is in the imperial city, and the defense of the palace is taken over by the forbidden army, but the outside of the palace is the responsibility of the patrol battalion, and His Royal Highness must also order people to increase the patrol, no matter how chaotic the court situation is, the vicinity of the East Palace can not be chaotic. A mess will cause an accident, and the responsibility will be on the two of you, and King Yu will be happy to take advantage of it. ”

Meng Zhi immediately agreed: "This responsibility is indeed heavy, didn't I tell you just now, I don't even have a decree from Daoming now, I asked Your Majesty for it at that time, but I was always interrupted before I could finish speaking, and now I have to rely on a verbal edict to support it." ”

"Speaking of which," Mei Changsu turned his head to look at him, "you should prepare a heavy gift for that high father-in-law." ”

"Huh? Why? ”

"He interrupted you with good intentions, it was a favor, and if you returned it, it means that you know his kindness and received his favor," Mei Changsu smiled at him, "That's it." ”

Meng Zhi glared at him, "Mr. Su, you know that I don't have these twists and turns in my head, don't play tricks on me, what's going on, tell me clearly!" ”

"Then let me ask you, when you first asked Your Majesty for an edict, did Your Majesty ignore you?"

"No ......"

"Why didn't he ignore you? Was it because he didn't hear clearly, or because he was confused? ”

Meng Zhi was stunned and speechless.

"If there is anyone in this world who knows His Majesty's mind best, it is by no means the queen concubine, not the crown prince Yuwang, not these courtiers who have been speculating about his holy will, but Gao Zhan. He waited by His Majesty's side day and night, and his grace and faith had been unfailing all these years, and he could not do it without a quick reaction and accurate judgment. Mei Changsu glanced at Meng Zhi deeply, "Take the matter of the Changxin Palace that day, your Majesty ignored your request for an edict, which means that Your Majesty was hesitant at that time, first, he didn't want to deal with it immediately, and he didn't want to deal with it too much, and it would be difficult to return to the future if he didn't want to deal with it too much." If the emperor issued an edict to claustrophobic the prince through the Zhongshu Dynasty, he always had to say the reason, no matter what reason was written, once it was serious enough to be claustrophobic and the prince, it would not be a small crime. The prince's current situation can't afford this clear edict, once it is issued, it will be abolished. So for Your Majesty, what you asked him to issue at that time can almost be regarded as an edict to abolish the crown prince......"

Meng Zhi broke out in a cold sweat on his back, and said hurriedly: "But I didn't mean that!" I just ......"

"You just want to take over the East Palace more conveniently, I understand this, Gao Zhan understands, and even His Majesty understands. So when you first asked, His Majesty didn't get angry, but just ignored it. But if you ask him again and again to make the edict clear, with His Majesty's mood at that time, and with his usual suspicions, I am afraid that I will not just ignore you. Besides, don't forget, after the case of the murder of the inner prisoner, King Yu came to intercede for you, in the mind of His Majesty, there were more or less suspicions that you were biased towards King Yu, and at this time you strongly asked for the imperial edict of Ming to put the prince to death...... Hehe......" Mei Changsu sneered twice, "Is our Majesty very lenient?" Isn't it considerate? Where would he be suspicious? ”

Meng Zhi took two steps back, sat down on the chair at once, and exhaled twice, but he couldn't come back to his senses.

"Your Majesty's intention to delay the matter in a hurry, that Gao Gonggong knows it, so he stopped your words, that is really a good intention, shouldn't you return the gift and thank others?"

"I really should thank him for hearing you say that." Meng Zhi wiped the sweat from his forehead, "But why would Gao Zhan help me?" Although we have no friction, we are not particularly friendly. ”

"On the side of the Son of Heaven, serving the king like a tiger, and in a treacherous place like the harem, Gao Zhan is definitely a wise and intelligent person. Wholeheartedly loyal to the king, not involved in the inner palace pet dispute, not involved in the rights and wrongs of the court, do not hurt people with bad intentions, and send some favors and sell some kindness without leaving a trace when there is a chance. On the contrary, the more those who moved a lot, stood in shifts to take refuge in this, and supported that, fell one after another. The court is like this, and the harem is ...... And how could it be otherwise? ”

"Mr. Su, since Gao Zhan is so important by His Majesty's side and is a smart person, why doesn't Mr. find a way to ambush him for His Royal Highness King Jing?"

"No," Mei Changsu shook his head, "First, Gao Zhan's practice of protecting himself for many years will not be shaken by our wooing, and secondly, he is too close to His Majesty, if he wants to subdue him, it is inevitable that some confidential weaknesses will be leaked in his hands, and if he does not control it well, it will be self-defeating." His Royal Highness King Jing is vying for the throne, he must take the right path, strengthen his strength, and strive for more and more upright support. Although Gao Zhan is important, he doesn't have to be him, so why be so greedy. Besides, with this high father-in-law, even if we don't ambush us, it won't hinder us in anything. When His Highness is strong enough in the future, he will be not our man but also ours. ”

Meng Zhi waved his hand a little ashamedly, and said, "Forget it, I'm too stupid to interject, so as not to mislead you in discussing the right matter." I don't think you say these things, but when you say it, it's really like that! ”

King Jing, who had been listening quietly, couldn't help but smile at this time: "It's okay for you to ask more, Mr. Su is sometimes impatient to explain, and I know a lot more about your question." ”

"Where am I impatient to explain, it is really that His Highness has made a lot of progress recently, I will mention it briefly, and you will understand. Now that I understand, why am I still rambling so much? ”

King Jing slowly lowered the smile on his face, and said, "But the third reason why you don't persuade me to subdue Gao Zhan, I really understand." Thank you sir. ”

When he said this, Mei Changsu was very surprised, stunned, his chest warmed, he smiled and turned his head, but he didn't say anything.

Although it is difficult and disadvantageous to subdue Gao Zhan, the benefits that can be brought after the ambush are also extremely huge. The main reason why Mei Changsu finally decided not to force King Jing to make up his mind on Gao Zhan was indeed the third one he didn't say.

That is, I don't want Concubine Jing to get involved.

After all, King Jing can't go into the harem too often, so whether it is in the process of subduing Gao Zhan or after the ambush, it is inevitable that some actions will be carried out through Concubine Jing. Concubine Jing is senhui and calm, not without this ability, but she is calm and calm, and using her to do treacherous things is definitely not what King Jing wants.

Mei Changsu was considerate of this, so he never asked King Jing to cooperate with him in stirring up any turmoil in the harem. But what surprised him was that King Jing, who had never said a word about it, actually understood his good intentions in his heart.

"So what do we do next?" Meng Zhi couldn't understand the vague words of these two people, and he didn't want to ask, what he was most concerned about now was that he must not do anything wrong again.

"Four words, wait and see." Mei Changsu said decisively, "The so-called anomaly is a demon, assuming that you are not involved in the party dispute, you will do what you will do in the face of the current situation." The commander strictly defended the East Palace and fulfilled the holy will, and His Royal Highness King Jing took his errand seriously, and still ignored the crown prince as before. At such times, whoever causes trouble will be unlucky. What I told Yu Wang just now was to 'act cautiously in secret', but in fact, the most correct thing to do is not to do anything. Your Majesty needs to be quiet at this time, whoever can calm down, he will favor whom, isn't the situation in the palace the same? ”
