Chapter 404: An Unexpected Visitor
Meng Xingci and Ye Xun heard the voice, glanced at each other, blinked, and lowered their heads together to look at Prince An.
Both of them were silent for a while, so Prince An was awakened by them?
Meng Xingci was the first to come back to her senses, and she said happily: "Lord Wang, are you awake?" After a pause, she hesitated and said, "The prince didn't hear what we said just now, right?" ”
Prince An half-opened his eyes, glanced at Meng Xingci, hooked the corners of his lips, and sneered: "If you hear it, you, you, do you want to kill me?" ”
He was very weak, his speech was intermittent, and he could only express his dissatisfaction with his eyes.
Meng Xingci smiled, "How dare you, Lord Wang, it's really good that Lord Wang can wake up." ”
There was a little bit of water in her eyes, and when Prince An saw it, he also grinned and smiled.
Lan Sisi came over quickly, and then unceremoniously drove Meng Xingci and Ye Xun out.
Wang Ye An raised his hand with difficulty and gave Lan Sisi a thumbs up.
"Well done, well done, all ...... Bother...... Annoyed them. Prince An couldn't help but say.
Meng Xingci and Ye Xun were kicked out, and the door of the dormitory was unceremoniously closed, almost hitting Meng Xingci's nose.
Meng Xingci touched his nose with palpitations, and said dissatisfiedly: "Really, how can you unload the mill and kill the donkey?" If it weren't for us, how could he have woken up so quickly? ”
Ye Xun hesitated, looked at Meng Xingci and hesitated: "Xingci, you describe yourself like this, isn't it right?" ”
Meng Xing paused before he reacted, as if he had accidentally scolded himself.
Meng Xingci waved his hand, "That's important, but it's good, he's awake." ”
"yes, that's nice." Ye Xun said softly.
The two looked at the sky, where the morning sun had just risen, revealing a faint shade of red. Although it is light but intense, it seems to bring endless hope.
Lan Sisi used Zhao Xuan's blood to save Prince An, and Meng Xingci took his body away, intending to bury him well.
The question of where to bury Zhao Xuan is a question, and Zhao Jinnian Zhao Xuan finally got lost and wanted to bury him in the royal tomb. However, Meng Xingci refused, for Zhao Xuan, the royal family was a responsibility that he could not escape for the rest of his life, and he would not be willing to stay here.
In the end, Meng Xingci decided to send Zhao Xuan back to Jiangbei for burial, he grew up in the sea over there, so he let that sea accompany him.
After Zhao Xuan's death, the envoys of Dongying left Shangjing as scheduled. In this peace talks, Daqi was a complete victory, and many favorable conditions were put forward. So much so that when the envoys left, their faces were strained.
The people from the Ministry of Rites sent them away with a smile on their faces.
As soon as Dongying's envoys left, the next step was liquidation, and all the officials who were bought by Zhao Xuan were thoroughly investigated this time, and Zhao Jin disposed of a group of ministers.
And at this time, the imperial doctor proposed in the early dynasty that since Zhao Xuan had solved it, Meng Xingci should also be disposed of.
Ye Xun was so angry that he directly drew his sword and killed him, but fortunately, the court was going to unload the weapon, which saved the life of the imperial doctor.
Doctor Yu Shi was straightforward: "Your Majesty, Meng Xingci has implicated a lot in this case and has far-reaching implications, please ask the emperor to deal with it as soon as possible to reassure the people." ”
Zhao Jin frowned.
As he was talking, suddenly an attendant hurriedly walked up to the hall and whispered two words in Zhao Jin's ear.
Zhao Jin's face changed: "What did you say?" ”
Zhao Jin stood up suddenly, he glanced at Doctor Yu Shi coldly, "The veteran from Yanhui Pass is outside the palace, waiting to intercede for Meng Xing. Why don't you go and tell them about it yourself, and say that you must execute Meng Xingci to set the record straight? ”
Doctor Yu Shi was stunned for a moment.
The early dynasty soon dispersed, and as soon as the ministers left the palace, they saw hundreds of veterans guarding outside.
Many of these veterans have disabilities, but they stand there with their backs straight, showing their military demeanor.
Seeing the ministers come out, the veterans were shocked.
One of the veterans stepped forward, he only had one leg left, "My name is Niu Jun, I joined the army in the thirteenth year of Guangyuan, and I have been in the army for seven years, I was injured in a sneak attack mission and lost a leg. Hou Ye has a good heart, and he has been helping us remnants of the army all these years, and the burden of the army is the burden, and Hou Ye sold the property of the Hou Mansion to feed us. Hou Ye worked hard to support, but we couldn't bear to let Hou Ye bear this. My sister-in-law disliked me for not being able to work, and often said sour things. I left home in anger and worked odd jobs to make a living. It was Master Meng, she arrived in Suiyuan County, it was she who established the kindergarten and admitted me to the kindergarten, and there was a doctor to diagnose and treat my old injuries and give me three meals a day. I know that women can't enter the court as officials, but Master Meng has given us veterans a way to live. Now that she has been greatly wronged, no matter what, I will come to Shangjing to intercede for her. ”
Soon, another veteran stepped forward.
"My name is Guan San, and I have two brothers in front of me, both of whom died on the battlefield, and I am the only one left in the family. I'm luckier than Brother Niu, I have sound hands and feet, and I can do some work, but I don't have an eye. I'm alone, and I just think about where this life goes. Later, Master Meng established the Kindergarten Courtyard, and she sent someone to find me and take me to live in the Kindergarten. I didn't want to go, I have hands and feet, and I can support myself. But Lord Meng said, I am a person of merit to the country, and I should be taken care of by the imperial court. Guan San smiled mockingly, "I have been a soldier all my life, and it is the first time someone has said that I am a person of merit to the country." However, Master Meng is also a meritorious man, and she should not be treated like this. ”
One after another veterans stepped forward and told their stories. But they come from different places and have different experiences, but what is the same is that they are all well taken care of because of Meng Xingci.
There is also an old lady, who is almost old.
"I gave birth to seven sons, all of whom died on the battlefield." The old lady said with tears in her eyes: "It was Master Meng who took me to the kindergarten to support my wife and son, and often came to talk to me. I don't understand why such a good official should be punished in the end. Is it just because she's a woman? However, as a woman, she has done so many good things, doesn't it matter? ”
The civil and military officials couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable when they heard this, these veterans, who traveled thousands of miles, just to intercede for Meng Xing. Especially that old lady, who is in her sixties, has traveled thousands of miles, all for Meng Xingci. From this, we can know how popular Meng Xingci is in Suiyuan County. How many good deeds did she do to make the people so loved?
The old lady asked that question, and none of them could answer it. Just because she's a woman, doesn't it matter?
The veteran at the gate of the palace attracted the attention of the people, and one of the people shouted: "It's the imperial doctor, that is, he has to kill Lord Meng." ”
