"Master, I have a reason why I have to do what I did that day."

Zong Ruwen nodded, "I know, you have been in the palace for many years, although you have a temper, you have never made such an unending mistake.

I don't ask what happened between you and the prince that day. ”

"Thank you, Master."

"When I talk to you, you have to thank me seven times out of ten sentences. You're a person who is really boring sometimes, if you can't still say something I like to hear, I really don't want an apprentice like you. ”

Meng Changqing smiled, "The apprentice is not Yinliang, how can he please others everywhere?" ”

"Yes, it's enough to please those important people." Zong Ruwen said, "After you left, the prince was very concerned about you, did you have any correspondence between you?" ”

"Nope." Meng Changqing said, "I have explained to the Liangzhou Post House that the letters sent to me from outside Liangzhou are not sent by Meng Fu on behalf of Dongwen, and they will all be returned." ”

"That's good, your position is on the border, everything you handle, you must be careful and careful, you don't know the methods of those people, very naïve, and very dirty.

But no matter how much the heart of the Lord is towards you, no matter how useful you are in the court, as long as the Holy Lord is suspicious, the more useful you are, the more dangerous it is. ”

Speaking of this topic, Meng Changqing's expression also became serious.

"Saying these things is not to ask you to hide your skills, what to do or what to do, but you have to be clear about what is reliable and what is unreliable." Zong Ruwen took the hemp cake on the corner of the desk and handed it to Meng Changqing.

"Thank you, Master, for telling me this."

"Look, thank you."

Meng Changqing said with a smile: "I have so much gratitude to Master that I can't hold it in my heart, so I have to say it." She continued: "I haven't heard anything from the prince since I separated from him a year ago.

Although it was like that when I was separated from His Royal Highness, I was very worried about His Highness, and I am afraid that I will not have the opportunity to meet the prince when I enter Beijing this time. ”

Zong Ruwen said: "You have been away from Beijing for a year, the situation in the palace has changed, and Your Majesty now values the three princes very much. ”

Meng Changqing knew what he meant, and replied: "It is also His Majesty's child, and it is not surprising that His Majesty values any prince. ”

Zong Ruwen pointed to the door and window, "Go and see if there is anyone outside?" ”

Meng Changqing immediately stood up, went to the door, the window and the roof to check, and after confirming that there was no one, he was about to return to his original seat, so he heard Zong Ru say, "Open the doors and windows to be more transparent." ”

Waiting for Meng Changqing to sit back in front of him, Zong Ruwen approached Meng Changqing and asked in a low voice: "Between the crown prince and the third prince, who do you choose to stand behind you?" ”

"Prince."

"You don't have much contact with the third prince, so you don't know him, why did you choose the crown prince?" Zong Ruwen continued to ask in a low voice.

"Master, when did I ever have the right to choose? I have been with the prince for many years, and everyone who sees me as a member of the prince's party. ”

"You have a choice now." Zong Ruwen said, "Everyone in the palace knows that you went to Liangzhou because you beat the prince, as long as you can continue to be valued by Your Majesty, other princes will naturally want to fight for you." ”

"Then I'll still choose the prince." Meng Changqing said, "With my shallow knowledge, I can't tell who is more suitable for that position between the crown prince and the third prince, and I won't say anything for the common people in the world in front of you."

I know that whoever sits in that position will change.

But as far as I know the Prince, as long as I stand behind him, before I sit in that position, he will do his best to protect me, and I will let him do his best to protect me.

Master, I still have so much to do, I don't want to get caught up in party strife and die in assassination, so I have to take the safest path. ”

"It's your business, your choice, and the consequences you're going to have in the future." Zong Ruwen reminded, "Don't forget that there is a Xiao family between you and the prince. ”

"The fear of the blade hanging above his head, the apprentice never dares to forget." Meng Changqing approached Zong Ruwen and said in a low voice, "Master, can I ask you the same question?" ”

Zong Ruwen sat up straight, "No." (End of chapter)
