"My lord, what we just said is true, we definitely don't dare to deceive the city lord!"

Shi Song saw that Meng Liang didn't believe what he said, and immediately became anxious, originally according to his assumption, Meng Liang would be furious when he heard that Zhang Kuang and Zhang Kui dared to plot to assassinate him, and then personally led people to destroy those two rebellious things.

And he, Shi Song, can easily take revenge smoothly, and then get back everything that belongs to him!

But the development of the facts did not go according to the script he wrote at all, and Meng Liang still replied with a lukewarm expression

"Captain Shi, what you said involves a wide range of things! Zhang Kuiqi is your subordinate, let's not talk about it for the time being, Zhang Kuang is my right-hand man, and he is also the deputy city lord of this city! You shouldn't have lost the position of the head of the regiment and want to use me to help you regain the position of the head of the iron-blooded mercenary group, right?"

Meng Liang's suspicion made Shi Song speechless, he thought about it from another position, and immediately figured out that what Meng Liang suspected was indeed possible.

Just as he was at a loss for words, sweating profusely because he couldn't come up with a factual basis, a familiar voice sounded from outside the door

"The evidence that the city lord wants is here, I wonder if the adults can recognize what it is?"

Following the sound, the three people present found a young man's figure swaggering towards the gate, and at the same time he was holding a strange flower with basically no roots, which was the Dream Eater Flower!

"Little Six Brothers!?"

Shi Song was really overjoyed at this time, Xiao Liu had no news since he took the initiative to lead away those who were chasing and killing, and the two of them thought that Xiao Liu had died in the Youquan Forest!

Now that he is not only intact, but he has also brought back the powerful evidence of the Dream Eater Flower, which makes Shi Song Li Tie dislike?

"Little brother, how did you get in?"

Meng Liang's face was not good, the moment he saw Xiao Liu, his whole body exuded a powerful momentum that surpassed Shi Song's heyday, and it was obvious that he did not want to see this uninvited guest.

"My lord, don't you want evidence? I'm a member of the Iron and Blood Mercenary Group, and this strange flower in my hand is proof!"

When Meng Liang, Shi Song and the others heard this, they set their eyes on this strange flower that lacked the rhizome part

"It's ...... Dream Eater?"

Meng Liang had the most knowledge and immediately reacted, and Shi Song and Li Tie also understood that what Xiao Liu was holding was the Dream Eater Flower they had planned to go to Youquan Forest to find!

"That's right! This thing is what Zhang Kuang sent someone to entrust us to find, what is the effect of the Dream Eating Flower, I don't think adults should be unclear, right?!"

Meng Liang retracted his gaze at this time, and his face began to change uncertainly, it was obvious that the evidence that Xiao Liu had taken out had already made him believe Shi Song's report.

After a while, Meng Liang returned to normal, and he looked at Xiao Liu with a smile and said

"Dream Eater Flower can indeed make people fall into nightmares and find it difficult to wake up, but how can this prove that it was entrusted by Zhang Kuang to find it? and how can it prove that Zhang Kuang wants to use it against me? Hehehe, do you three know what to do for falsely accusing an imperial official?"

Meng Liang's words made Shi Song and Li Tie, who were originally overjoyed, immediately fall into the ice kiln, they couldn't figure it out, why Meng Liang just didn't want to believe the words of himself and others?!

And Xiao Liu fell silent after hearing this, the current evidence really can't be considered ironclad, but Meng Liang shouldn't show such an attitude, right?

"Boy, I don't think this Meng Liang is unwilling to deal with Zhang Kuang, but he can't deal with it!

Mo Wu analyzed what Meng Liang was thinking with him in Xiao Liu's mind, and then gave him a piece of advice.

Xiao Liu nodded silently in his heart, then he raised his head, looked at Meng Liang and smiled

"The city lord is right, we can't come up with more powerful evidence to prove that Zhang Kuang is plotting against you. Zhang Kuang has gathered a lot of manpower in his hands, hehehe, I guess he can't make such a big move to deal with a few of us! Since the adults don't care, then it's better that we haven't been here, and today's incident has never happened! City Lord, let's take our leave!"

Xiao Liuyan said, pulled Shi Song, and walked out without looking back, as if he had given up on persuading Meng Liang to deal with Zhang Kuang and Zhang Kui.

Although Shi Song didn't know why Xiao Liu suddenly gave up his efforts, because of the various outstanding points that Xiao Liu had shown before, he chose to believe in this young man, and pulled Li Tie to follow Xiao Liu and walked outside the City Lord's Mansion.

Seeing this, Meng Liang did not stop them, but showed a thoughtful look on his face, and when Xiao Liu was about to take Shi Song and Li Tie out of here, he finally spoke again

"This little brother, I have something I want to talk to you about alone, I don't know what you think?"

Xiao Liu's footsteps immediately stopped, and he turned back to Meng Liang and smiled

"My lord invited, how dare the kid not obey? Brother Shi, you two should find a place to rest first. I'll go find you later!"

As soon as Shi Song saw that Meng Liang wanted to talk to Xiao Liu alone, he felt that there must be something greasy in this, but he was also a smart person, so he immediately nodded

"Okay, little sixth brother, we'll see you later!"

After that, he took Li Tietou and left without looking back.

"Hehehe, the little brother is young, but his courage is outstanding, but I don't know if you have the strength to match your courage? Your name is Xiaoliu, right? I know you're wondering, why don't I want to believe that Zhang Kuang secretly wants to deal with me? Then let me ask you, do you know who I am?"

After Meng Liang saw that only he and Xiao Liu were left in the hall, he easily returned to his seat and sat down, took a sip of tea lightly before speaking unhurriedly

"The kid doesn't know, please ask the city lord to say it clearly!"

Xiao Liu listened to Meng Liang's words and knew that the other party must have something to do, so he was happy to be an audience.

But who knew that Meng Liang didn't continue immediately, but asked again

"Do you know who is in charge of the Eastern Pole Imperial Kingdom now?"

"I think everyone knows this, of course, His Majesty the Eastern Emperor is in charge!"

The royal family of the Dongji Imperial Kingdom is surnamed Donghuang, and the current emperor's name is Donghuang Puyi, who is a great emperor who is both civil and military.

Xiao Liu was very strange, why did Meng Liang want to bring the topic to this? However, he was not in a hurry, since Meng Liang said this, he must not be without a reason.

Sure enough, Meng Liang listened to his answer, shook his head with a smile, and said slowly

"Little brother, it's not bad for you to say that. However, do you know that Your Majesty is already more than two hundred years old this year! The strength above the Human Immortal Realm can make a person's body increase more vitality, so the life span will be longer, but Your Majesty is really old. Therefore, in the near future, this empire will usher in a new monarch! He is the current crown prince Donghuang Yi! I, Meng Liang, am a loyal cadre who is loyal to Prince Yi! Follow the crown prince, and when he inherits the great unification in the future, we will inevitably ascend to heaven and become the pillars of the new generation of the Dongji Imperial Kingdom!"

After listening to Meng Liang's words full of yearning, Xiao Liu had an idea in his heart, but he still couldn't be sure, so he asked honestly

"Then why does the city lord still care about a little Zhang Kuang?

Sure enough, Meng Liang smiled and nodded after hearing this

"Little brother, I see that you are very bold and quick-witted, and now I see that this is indeed the case! That Zhang Kuang is the most powerful prince in the court today, except for Prince Yi, the third prince of Donghuangjun! The two of us who are loyal are the two people in the empire who are most likely to inherit the great unification of the previous generation! You say, can I touch him casually?"

When Xiao Liu heard this, his heart suddenly dawned, it turned out that Meng Liang and Zhang Kuang, the main and deputy city lords of Yuzhou City, were loyal to the crown prince Dong Huangyi and the third prince Dong Huangjun respectively, although the two of them knew in their hearts that each other would win and lose like their masters sooner or later, but on the surface, they did not dare to directly solve each other!

Because, they are afraid that they will be retaliated by the other party's master by thunderous means if they leave the handle!

If Meng Liang listened to Shi Song's words and led people to kill Zhang Kuang and Zhang Kui in public, then this matter would soon reach the ears of the three princes, and he Meng Liang would definitely die in a short time!

In the empire, there are now two major factions, one is the ministers who support the prince Donghuangjun, who, like Meng Liang, choose to be loyal to Donghuangyi, in order to benefit himself after he gets the throne.

The other faction is the one who chooses to support Dong Huangjun.

Although these two factions are antagonistic and hostile to each other, they don't dare to make too blatant moves, because Donghuang Puyi is still alive!

After Meng Liang saw Xiao Liu's thoughtful expression, there was a hint of realization on his face, and it was obvious that he understood the truth, and then he said with a smile

"Little brother, I believe that with your cleverness, you should understand by now, right? I can't directly deal with Zhang Kuang and them! Even if he wants to plot against me, he can't! At the same time, this is also the reason why I will meet with you alone!"

At this time, Xiao Liu had already figured out what the relationship between Meng Liang and Zhang Kuang was, so he could generally know why the other party would talk to him alone

"My lord, you mean, let me kill Zhang Kuang?"

"Hahahaha! I'll just say you're smart! You're right! Not only do you want to kill Zhang Kuang, but you also want everyone to know that you killed him! In this way, the third prince won't suspect me!"

Meng Liang's words finally revealed his true purpose, it turned out that he also wanted Zhang Kuang to die, but not in his hands, but in the hands of Xiao Liu!

This trick is called borrowing a knife to kill!
