"Are you saying that there is a Dao Master in our Youzhou City who has a deep Taoism?" In the City Lord's Mansion of Youzhou City, Meng Feng sat on the Taishi chair in the center and asked Nan Fu who was standing below.

"Yes, sir."

Nanfu bowed and replied: "At that time, the crowd shouted a few words of the fairy Taoist, but the subordinates and others chased forward, and did not find any trace of the person, it is estimated that they ran away in chaos, and the subordinates then caught a few passers-by who were running at that time, and they all said that they only heard that this Taoist person was a god, but no one knew what this person did, and some of the people said that there was a murder in the drunken secluded house, and a few of the subordinates heard it, and hurriedly went to the drunken secluded house to inquire, and when they got there, they were told that it was just a few sons and brothers who had a quarrel, One of them moved his hand and knocked the other unconscious, and no murder occurred. ”

Meng Feng and General Zhao, who was sitting below, glanced at each other, and the two shook their heads helplessly.

Meng Feng said to Nanfu: "Whether this person is really a Taoist or a charlatan, when you patrol the city, if you find this person again, be sure to invite him to me, remember, please, go down." ”

"Subordinates obey." Nanfu withdrew.

General Zhao said unhappily: "It's really a shame that this happened when the Wenhui was about to open. ”

Meng Feng smiled bitterly: "Fortunately, everyone in the Bai family thinks that this matter is my Youzhou folk custom, otherwise if they know that it is a charlatan who leads people to gather to make trouble, then this matter will be rumored to be a laughing stock in the world, and you and I plus the court will also have a dull face." ”

General Zhao Shen thought about Meng Feng's treatment of this Taoist person, and wondered: "My lord, why don't you directly order the government to want this Taoist priest, but invite him to the mansion." ”

Meng Feng said lightly: "I suspect that this person has another purpose. ”

General Zhao was taken aback: "You mean he did this for?" ”

Meng Feng frowned and said: "Take precautions, in extraordinary times, it's better to be cautious." ”

Meng Feng stood up and walked into the mansion with General Zhao, Meng Feng asked as he walked, "Have the residences of the various families been arranged?" ”

General Zhao replied: "Except for the hundreds of families, no one has come so far, after the Shen family was sent away by you, the rest of the Bai, Yang, Liu, Fang, Song, and Chang families have all arrived, and they have all been arranged by me to the manor on the west side of the inner city. ”

Meng Feng nodded, thinking of the news he had revealed to Shen Song, and said: "The Shen family doesn't have to wait any longer, there shouldn't be anyone coming, it's better if someone doesn't come from the Baijia family, and I don't want to be caught in the middle and be angry on both sides." As soon as Lord Yuyao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, arrived, we set up a dinner to entertain the guests and discuss the affairs of the meeting. ”

Meng Feng said, but he was very puzzled in his heart, why the prince and his party, who should have arrived in Youzhou a long time ago, have not been seen so far, could it be that they are waiting outside the city, planning to join the convoy of the Ministry of Rites and enter the city together?

The two walked through a long corridor and came to a courtyard door, at the door, Meng Feng pressed the door in a rhythm of three short and one long, and gently buckled. After a while, a young voice came from inside, "Who is it?" ”

"Meng Feng and Zhao Zhi'an came to visit the teacher." Meng Feng said respectfully outside the door.

The door opened, and the door was opened by a young man in regular clothes, the young man's eyes were sharp, and he arched his hand at Meng Feng and the others, and whispered: "Lord Zhoufu, General Zhao, my father-in-law just woke up, but this headache and cough and asthma have not improved so far, this medicine ......"

"You can't stop the medicine." Meng Feng said solemnly: "Xun Lao is the doctor Xun back then, the medical skills are excellent, he said that the teacher is old, and this disease is the root of the teacher's brand decades ago, so this treatment will be slow, you don't have to be anxious, let the teacher recuperate slowly." ”

The young man led Meng Feng and Zhao Shen into the inner room, there was an old man half-leaning on the bed, the old man leaned on the side of the bed, his spirit was a little sluggish, seeing the two, the old man smiled and said hoarsely: "You are here." ”

Meng Feng and Zhao Shenjiang walked to the side and knelt down on one knee and said, "Meng Feng and Zhao Zhi'an pay a visit to the teacher and Master Shangshu." ”

"Get up." After the old man finished speaking, he coughed violently.

Meng Feng's eyes were full of worry, but they didn't expect the old man to be so sick.

After the old man finished coughing, he looked at General Zhao with an apologetic face, and said, "Zhi'an, you and Zheng'er step down first, and I want to talk to Meng Feng for a while." ”

General Zhao got up and said with a smile: "Lord Shangshu, what you say is it, the two of us will retire first." ”

Seeing that General Zhao and his righteous son Qiao Zheng retreated, the old man looked at Meng Feng peacefully, Meng Feng was also looking at the old man, looking at the deep wrinkles on the old man's face and the vicissitudes in his eyes, Meng Feng couldn't help but blur his eyes.

The old man knew what he was thinking, and said softly: "What are you crying about, everyone gets old one day, but I didn't expect that I could quietly return to this homeland, Feng'er, do you know, in the past ten years of Jiuqu and Thirteen Rings, I never thought that I would be able to return to my homeland alive." Lao Shangshu turned to a proud face: "I underestimated your ability, I didn't expect that you children would be able to bring us to Youzhou City safe and sound in front of everyone's eyes." is worthy of being a disciple taught by my Qiao. ”

Meng Feng said with a smile: "It's still the junior brother's whimsical and far-sighted thinking, and he actually thought of using the Wenhui incident to hide from the world, I received a letter from the teacher at the time, and I was startled when I saw the junior brother's plan, for fear that the junior brother would put the teacher in a desperate situation if he didn't think it well." ”

The old man asked, "Where is he now?" ”

Meng Feng replied: "Teacher, be relieved, now I have let my junior brothers and soldiers settle in the military camp on the east side of the city, those family members can't enter the barracks, they only know that this is a front camp in Beizhili, and it is expected that there will be no mistakes." The teacher can live in peace, and the only unstable factor now is Gao Bo. ”

The old man frowned: "There is no news from Gao Bo yet?" ”

Meng Feng said slowly: "After the teacher arrived at me yesterday, I sent someone to Xuanzhou, but I haven't come back yet. ”

Meng Feng frowned: "I still don't trust him, I still don't understand why the people from the Northern Camp want to help us, I always feel that this person is going to ruin our affairs." ”

The old man sighed: "Even if the matter is leaked at this time, I have no regrets about being executed, but now that the matter is over, I don't want to implicate you, and I don't want the children in the mountains to bury me for me." ”

General Zhao Shen retreated to the courtyard, looked at the young man called Qiao Zheng, and was distracted: "Who would have thought that the old Shangshu of the former military department who should have been trapped in the nine-song and thirteen-ring ring actually came to Youzhou City yesterday. ”

It turned out that the army that Shen Ye and the others saw in Zhuo County at that time was not from Beidaying at all, but a "rebel" from the previous dynasty disguised as Beidaying! And the old man in the house is the old Shangshu of the military department of the previous dynasty.

A month ago, the old man in the mountains knew that his time was short, so he wanted to die with the determination to die in his homeland, so he chose some soldiers who had the will to die, these people had no hope of living, and like Lao Shangshu, they wanted to die in their hometown.

But who knew that the situation had changed, the soldier who thought he would die found himself returning to his homeland safe and sound, when the old man took them into Youzhou City, the old man saw the light of hope rekindled in their eyes, such a person, Lao Shangshu no longer had the courage to order them to die for themselves. The big people on their side have wasted more than ten years of their youth because of their own selfishness, and they can't be wrong again and again, and now everyone has the right to live.

"Gotta find a way to get these kids out." The old man in the room thought to himself.

At this time, Qiao Zheng's voice came from the door, "Master Meng, Xun Laolang has arrived." ”

……

Time went back to yesterday, Shen Song and Si Si returned from the City Lord's Mansion and returned to the Rejuvenation Hall, and found that Shen Ye had disappeared, and Xun Lao was nowhere to be found.

Shen Song and the others were anxious, and hurriedly found the guy in the store, who only knew that Xun Lao had gone to the clinic temporarily, but he didn't know when Shen Ye left.

The man's face was full of apologies: "Master of the Shen family, before leaving, Old Xun specially instructed me to let me take a good look at the son, I have been staying at the counter, I really don't know how the son of the Shen family disappeared." ”

Shen Song was suspicious: "Elder Xun told you our identity?" ”

The guy shook his head and told Shen Song and Si Si about the previous conflict between Shen Ye and the young general.

When Shen Song heard the guy talk about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walking in front of the two of them, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Shen Song pulled Si Si into the inner room, and when he saw the upturned package on the table, he relaxed and sat on the chair and drank tea with a leisurely face.

Seeing this, Si Si, who was still anxious, asked, "Master, aren't we going to find His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”

Shen Song replied: "If he wants to leave, he will go, and if he wants to leave, it means that either he has recovered his memory, or he does not trust us, even if we find him back, he will run away again." ”

Si Si was stunned: "What should I do then?" ”

Shen Song spread his hands: "What else can I do, as soon as he leaves, I don't have to care about him, I can ...... instead"

Si Si hurriedly said: "But if the prince's enemy is still in the city, isn't it?" ”

Shen Song said slowly: "What does it matter to me whether the prince is dead or alive?" ”

Si Si didn't seem to expect Shen Song to say this, and blurted out: "Master, you are so cruel. ”

Shen Song rolled his eyes helplessly: "What does this have to do with cruelty, I saved him, he already owes me a great favor, I want to take him for treatment, because he is here with me, I can't ignore it, and now it seems that his disease has already been almost cured." ”

"Huh?" Si Si wondered.

"That guy didn't say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to clash with people by leaning against the wall." Shen Ye sighed.

Si Si thought that every time the prince walked, he or the old man supported him, it turned out that everything was pretended by the prince, the prince never believed in himself from the beginning, and he couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved in his heart, he has been taking care of the other party, but the other party has been guarding himself.

"When the prince left here, in addition to taking some silver taels, he also took away one of my Shenzi waist cards, thinking that he would be fine in Youzhou City." Shen Song thought that Si Si was still worried about the prince, and comforted.

Si Si said: "What is he doing with the waist card?" Suddenly, her eyes widened, "He wants to participate in the cultural meeting?" ”

Shen Song said: "I don't know what the prince wants to do, it's his own business, since the prince has chosen to leave us now, I have to do my own thing." ”

"Huh?" Si Si didn't know what Shen Song was talking about.

Shen Song closed his eyes, thinking of the assassination of the prince, thinking of the two waves of troops he met in Zhuo County, thinking of Meng Feng's family letter, and thinking of the upcoming Wenhui, the heart that had been silent for many years became excited for a long time, and he had a premonition that an earth-shattering event was brewing in Youzhou City.
