Chapter 200: Who is the Liar?
The paper and ink have not dried, and the small Kai who is barely upright in one hand is very handsome.
Meng Chaodui muttered, "It's really like ......."
"Ahem!" Shen Yuning knocked on the table with the end of her pen: "Lord Wang, look at the point."
"Good!" The king of the northwest and his two sons stood in front of the desk and looked at it again and again, their expressions gradually becoming solemn.
"In the past, I offered my Gong and Mu Gong to be on good terms, worked together, affirmed it with an oath, and emphasized it with a faint marriage......" He read the text from beginning to end almost at a glance, until he confirmed the last word: "If the king does not give great favors, and the widow is not good, he cannot retreat as a prince." A deacon who dares to do his best, and who is a ...... of profit."
"What's this?" Meng Jun said angrily: "This is the "Last Book of the First Emperor", it is clearly Lu Xiang's absolute Qin!"
Meng Chaodui also couldn't wait, "Lord Shen Meng...... Are you sure that this is the "Book of Absolute Qin" written in the "Last Book of the First Emperor"? Word for word? No more, no less? Have you memorized it all? You are a girl from a family of rivers and lakes, why can you memorize such a tirade?"
Seeing that he was a little aggressive, Meng Tang quietly hid Shen Yuning behind him: "The Last Book of the First Emperor is not trivial, and it is not surprising that Shen Yulong will let her memorize it."
Shen Yuning's heart was weak, it was not that her brother asked her to memorize it, but that she only memorized it when she planned to use the "Last Emperor's Testament" as a bait, and she was ready to be taken away by someone at that time.
"How can it be the Book of Absolute Qin, at most, at least it should be a martial arts cheatbook, right?" Meng Chaodui hurriedly said: "There are some clues hidden in the martial arts secret book, revealing the whereabouts of the former emperor and the crown prince, but this is ......
He hurriedly picked up the "Book of Absolute Qin" and read it carefully from beginning to end, eager to pick out every word clearly, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see the doorway.
Even pulling his two sons to see, Meng Jun began to study the arrangement and reading of these words with great interest, and even began to look for any cold typos, but Meng Tang had already set his eyes on Shen Yuning.
The latter was stared at by him, but he was still as calm as ever: "Don't worry, I wrote truthfully and didn't hide it."
"The Book of Absolute Qin?" The man asked her, "From the beginning, it was the Book of Absolute Qin?"
"That's right."
"Jiang Xiaogu also got the Book of Absolute Qin?"
"You want to ask why he didn't get suspicious? The sect master has not been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and he may not know that some sects and martial arts sages, in order to protect the skills they have learned, either hide books in organs, or hide words in pictures and texts, of course, there are also pictures and texts in calligraphy and paintings. Jiang Xiaogu must have thought that the secret book of martial arts was hidden in this "Book of Absolute Qin", and he would be able to see through it if he had a good understanding of it!"
Meng Tang asked her again, "The order in which you write is also the same as the original book?"
"Same."
"How do you understand this?" Meng Chaodui asked her urgently, "Did your father, or your brother, reveal anything?"
Shen Yuning shook his head.
Meng Jun added, "Could it be that the secret comes from the book itself? And not these words? Do you have any secret techniques in the Martial Arts Alliance that you use to conceal words or picture pages?"
"That book, I have studied, there is nothing hidden, my father said that the book was given to him by the first emperor, if there is a hidden, it should also be from the secret art in the palace, how do we Jianghu people know."
At this moment, Meng Chaowan was completely stumped, he scratched his head irritably, frowned and stared at those words, eager to get into it.
"It's really weird," Meng Jun suddenly snorted coldly: "A martial arts secret book attracts people from all over the world who practice martial arts, but you who hold the secret book have never thought of going to the past to comprehend?"
Shen Yuning looked at him with a smile, "Why do you want to go to enlightenment? My father has withdrawn from the rivers and lakes, and as for my brother, the son may not know that he is already the best in the world, so why bother?"
Meng Jun was speechless, so he had to study the "Book of Absolute Qin" again.
Meng Chaodui instead looked at his youngest son, who had always been uninterested in this book: "Tang'er, you have seen a lot of knowledge in the rivers and lakes in the past few years, why don't you work with Shen Mengzhu to help your father study and study again?"
He still held on to the last glimmer of hope, he hoped that Shen Yuning was lying to him, and she refused to tell him about it
Secrets, maybe I can tell his son!
"There's nothing to study, this is neither a martial arts secret book, nor a secret hidden by the first emperor!"
These words were tantamount to a shock, and the first to react was Shen Yuning.
"What does Sect Master Meng mean? Do you think I'm lying? Didn't tell me honestly?"
"If the Shen Alliance Master is not lying, then it is the former Alliance Master Shen Lang who is lying."
There was silence in the study, Shen Yuning looked at him blankly, this person said calmly, but his tone was very firm.
"The Book of Absolute Qin" was written by the monarch of the pre-Jin State in order to break off diplomatic relations with the Qin State, and sent his envoy Wei Qi, because Wei Qi's fief was in Lü, also known as Lü Qi, this book is called "Lü Xiang Absolute Qin".
"So what?" Meng Chaodui hurriedly said, "It doesn't matter who wrote it, what is the use of it for us?"
"What's in the book?"
Meng Jun said: "The Book of Absolute Qin seems to be generous and eloquent in a thousand words, but in fact, it is all about counting the crimes of the Qin State, so as to achieve the goal of severing diplomatic relations between the two countries. Although it was the Qin State that was scolded, it was a good article that even the Qin State applauded."
"Although this book is a good article, it is actually a rogue book that reverses right and wrong and confuses the public." Meng Tang clicked the article with his hand: "Then in order to break off diplomatic relations with the Qin State, Lu Xiang counted all the battles between Qin and Jin on the head of the Qin State, whether it was the Battle of Hanyuan, the Battle of Kun, the Battle of Linghu or the Battle of Hequ, the fault lies in Qin, they are both military generals, who is right and which is wrong, I don't need to say more, right?"
"That's true...... Meng Chaowan nodded and said, "Although this book is ornate and sharp, it was written by Lu Xiang for the sake of the Qin Dynasty.
"Yes, what do you do by believing in Him?" Meng Tang said and looked at his father in front of him.
Meng Chaodui didn't react at first, but after these words were slowly chewed on the side of his mouth, he suddenly became as transparent as Daigo empowerment.
"That's right! Believe in him." He couldn't help laughing and saying, "What do you believe in him?"
Shen Yuning was confused, and Meng Jun, the prince on the side, was even more puzzled.
"......I see," Meng Chaodui said slowly, "Tang'er is right......
Seeing that this father and son seemed to have penetrated the heavenly machine for a moment, Shen Yuning couldn't help but be a little anxious: "What kind of ideas do you two have, why do you have to hide it?"
"If the leader of the alliance is true......
"Of course it's true!" Shen Yuning was about to get angry: "Sect Master Meng, don't sell Guanzi!"
The latter said with a smile: "The person who wrote this "Testament of the First Emperor" did not hide the secret book of martial arts or the whereabouts of the prince in it, just to reverse right and wrong and confuse the public, just like Lu Xiang."
"You said Emperor Wai?" Meng Jun asked anxiously, "What does Emperor Wai want to confuse?"
"What if it weren't for the Emperor of Mourning?"
In a hurry, Shen Yuning also wanted to be poured a scoop of cold water on her head, she looked at Meng Tang in a daze: "You said my father?"
"It's not impossible...... Meng Chaodui said again: "Back then, it was your father who was alone in the escort, and it was your father who said that the first emperor gave him a book of martial arts secrets, and no one can testify to it at all, and no one can tell whether it is true or false!"
"In other words, the book given by the first emperor...... Is it fake? Isn't this one?" Meng Jun wanted to scratch his head, but the redness and swelling at his temples made him gasp again, and he hurriedly stopped.
"It's not that no one can testify," Meng Tang added...... "Your father was not the only one who escorted back then."
Shen Yu was stunned: "However, they all said that it was only my father, and my father wanted to call on the Wulin League to escort him back then, but all factions felt that the rivers and lakes should not interfere in the affairs of the court, so they all refused."
"There is one more, Xiao Guanyin."
At this moment, Shen Yuning was completely confused: "Who is she?"
Meng Tang sighed helplessly, looking at her with a little pity in his eyes: "Xiao Zhonglang, you always remember! The leader of the alliance is not very old, but his memory is like that of an old woman......
"Xiao Zhonglang? That evil second generation?! Oh, I remember, Xiao Guanyin is his mother, his cult leader!"
It's also ridiculous to say, Xiao Zhonglang originally went to persuade everyone to defeat demons, but he took the lead and was beaten by Ji Yu on the way to kill demons
Kill with a single sword.
Meng Tang said with his hand: "Before leaving Fenggui City, I had ordered someone to send Xiao Zhonglang's bones back to the cult, and I also inquired about some news from Xiao Guanyin, and it was only delivered yesterday, so I guessed that this "Last Emperor's Testament" may just be something made up by your father, and the first emperor didn't give him this book at all."
"Impossible, impossible!" Shen Yuning waved his hand again and again: "If the first emperor gives, he gives, and if he doesn't give, he doesn't give, why did he make up such a thing to cause trouble for himself?"
But now that I think about it, my father can casually hand over a copy of "The Last Book of the First Emperor" to her daughter, who doesn't know martial arts, as if ...... I don't really value the look......
"I don't believe it anyway."
She is still stubborn, how many heroes are vying to grab something as important as "The Last Book of the First Emperor", but now tell her that it was made up by her father and does not exist?
"Do you believe?" She went to see Meng Chaowan and Meng Jun, and the father and son nodded in unison.
Meng Chaowan even couldn't wait to urge: "Tang'er tell me, what's going on? What's going on with that Guanyin and Shen Lang?"
"At first, I was just curious about why the relationship between the cult and the Wulin League was so strange, but later I learned that the cult leader Xiao Guanyin was actually Shen Lang's childhood sweetheart."
Shen Yuning's pupils shook again: "How come I have never heard my father mention it!"
"The two were originally married in the rivers and lakes, but during Xiao Guanyin's apprenticeship in the South China Sea, your father met a woman who became his own son out of nowhere.
Shen Yuning and Meng Chaodui almost said in unison: "What a scum......
"Later, Shen Lang's wife gave birth to a daughter and died......".
Shen Yuning hurriedly raised her hand: "That's right, I, I, it's me."
Meng Chaodui: "Ah...... Condolences."
"Well, I've let it go."
"Put it down, all of us in this house are hard-working people, don't you have to put it down!"
"Indeed, Lord Wang, the prince, and Sect Master Meng, I am also very considerate of your difficulty."
"Who's to say it isn't?"
"Ahem!" Sect Master Meng looked at his father coldly, and then looked at Shen Yuning: "Or, you two make a father and daughter?"
"Ah, then it doesn't have to be." Lord Shen waved his hand modestly.
Meng Chaodui also nodded: "Yes, no need, it is enough to have the two of you as fathers."
"I think too, if you really become father and daughter, you will only suffer more than you do now."
