Chapter 27: Sword array

Because he slept late in the night, Mei Changsu was a little drowsy in the morning, and he did n’t wake up at all. Fei Liu stood at the door and refused to let people come in to call him. .
Finally, Yujin thought of a way, yelling "Brother Su is getting up!" Across the courtyard wall, annoyed Fei Liu, chasing him to catch him. As soon as he fled, Xiao Jingrui took the opportunity to drill into the snowy lodge. Who knows that Fei Liu's eyes are quick, and he flashed back to the door in an instant, but the other side said Yujin and he was not afraid of screaming in death, so that the cold boy summed up Xiao Jingrui's fist and grievances. The ground said, "Why hit me ... and I wasn't calling ..."
Xie Bi hid far away and analyzed: "Fei Liu wanted to stun you and go to Yujin ..."
Yan Yujin shivered and shouted "Brother Su" while encouraging his friends to "support for a while!"
All of a sudden, a group of people outside Xuelu turned upside down, and even a sleeping Buddha inside had to be awakened.
After opening the door and instructing Fei to exile, the servants quickly brought hot water and breakfast.
Yan Yujin wanted to speak as soon as he entered the door. He was forcibly stopped by Xiao Jingrui. He waited until Mei Changsu finished drinking porridge and put down the tableware.
"Brother Su, I passed the message in the palace early this morning, saying that the test was pushed to tomorrow." Yan Yujin reported the news impatiently.
"Oh why?"
"Because you are going to clean up Bai Liqi today!" Yan Yujin opened the fan happily, just shook it, saw Xiao Jingrui glared at him, and he was shocked to find that it was Mei Changsu who was hiding because of the cold wind blowing. , Quickly put away the fan, but still hitting the palm of the other hand handsomely. The unknown person thought he was the one who was going to clean up Bairich today.
Xie Bi saw that the eldest son was busy playing cool, and did not mean to continue. He hurriedly took over the words and explained: "It is like this, His Royal Highness is on the table, saying that even if Brother Su defeated Bai Liqi with a child today, His candidacy will not change, and he will still participate in the written test.
But once defeated, it will inevitably greatly disturb his mood, which is somewhat unfair.
Anyway, the matter of choosing a son-in-law is not anxious for this day or two, so why not postpone the written test for one day, so that the Beiyan people will not find excuses and make irresponsible remarks. "
"This idea is comprehensive, is the Holy Spirit accurate?"
"Precise."
"Oh." Mei Changsu nodded, "Thank you.
It's not early, I'm getting up, and I'll say goodbye to you first. "
"Farewell?" Xiao Jingrui stunnedly passed his outside cloak, "We can go together."
Mei Changsu glanced at several people: "Where are you going?"
"Go and see how you beat Bairich!"
Mei Changsu couldn't help but smiled and said, "Wuyingdian is the Chaodian, not the Qinglefang where you often visit.
The last time you went was because of the Holy Summoning; the original plan was to go with me today because there was a written test after the game; now that the written test is cancelled, why do you have any reason to enter Wuying Hall? Even if you are sons of nobles, should you at least ask for permission to enter first? "
"Ah--" Yan Yujin screamed and jumped up, "Forget this! Bai wasted so long, I have to go to the fold to see you, I must watch this lively death!"
Xie Bi didn't matter, he hadn't thought about going, but Xiao Jingrui was a little busy, and Zhang Zhang stood up to follow his friend and walked out, and then fixed his foot and looked back at Mei Changsu, both sides were tight.
"Don't be embarrassed," Mei Changsu smiled and shoved him. "Xie Bi will help me arrange the carriage. Please go to the party, don't you want to watch this bustling?"
Xiao Jingrui smiled and said, "Hmm!" He ran out, Xie Bi shrugged and looked at his back, and sighed: "It's more and more like Yujin. He didn't like to watch lively like that before ... … "
For Xie Bi, who is not familiar with martial arts, Mei Changsu did not want to explain to him what the curious part of this contest was. He took care of himself and fastened the snow-colored cloak, and urged Liuli to say something. Three children who had already been waiting walked outside.
Hou's carriage and guards had already stopped outside the door. Xie Bi took a look at the left and joked: "The Lord of the Phoenix did not send a carriage today. Brother Su, are you disappointed?"
Mei Changsu smiled unanswered, lowered the curtain, and the groom flicked the whip, making a brisk sound, and went straight to the direction of Miyagi.
There are fewer people gathered in Wuying Hall today than last time.
The other nine candidates except Bailiqi had not seen the shadow, and the Dayu mission only came to the second and second envoys.
Although King Jing arrived early because of court life, the prince and King Yu disappeared. It is said that he entered the palace early in the morning and probably accompanied the Holy Car.
The two siblings of Mu Wangfu were also late, so when Mei Changsu took three children standing in the hall, no one except Jing Jing Yao nodded, and no one came to speak coldly, which was quite different from the liveliness of the previous few days.
But Mei Changsu likes this quiet atmosphere.
He led the three elementary school apprentices to the corner of the hall, holding their hands one after the other, and smiling softly to encourage comfort. Soon after, those bony eyes turned to fear and settled down, nodding one by one seriously. He expressed that he would work hard to seize the opportunity to get rid of the status of criminal slave.
About half a quarter of an hour later, Master Nihuang and Mu Qing walked in together, Mei Changsu greeted each other with a smile, and secretly lamented how the two sisters had a very spirited appearance anytime, anywhere. The elegant gestures of the nobles pretending to be lazy are really far away, only Jing Wang still has the same temperament.
"Looking at Mr. Su's expression, it seems that he is well-established?" Mu Qing was the first to speak. He stepped closer and slightly bent down to ask the three children, "Tell me, what did Mr. Su teach you?"
Mei Changsu thought it would be no harm to let the children get acquainted with the appearance of the people in the palace first, regardless of him at the moment, and instructed the master of Nihuang County to walk a few steps to the side.
"Why? Have you whispered something to me?" Nanjing female handsome joked.
"Someone asked me to warn you," Mei Changsu whispered, "It seems that it is hopeless to marry you, so someone in the palace wants to use some wrists to force you to follow, you must be careful to honor the king and the queen queen ... if you are invited alone Banquet, if you can go, do n’t go ... "
"Forcing me to follow?" After a brief surprise, the Nihuang County Lord smiled proudly, "How do they want to force?"
Mei Changsu is a bit difficult to elaborate, only vaguely said: "Don't underestimate the means of the harem, beware of the entrance ..."
I was about to say that suddenly there was footsteps outside, and Yujin dragged Xiao Jingrui to rush in, and he smiled and said, "Catch up and catch up, Brother Su, haven't you started yet?"
Mu Qing stopped with an unhappy face and wrinkled his eyebrows: "It's not started yet. Mr. Su is talking to my sister. Don't bother them!"
Being so strongly defended by him, it is not even good for Nihuang County Master to whisper to Mei Changsu anymore.
After all, it is an unmarried royal daughter. Before choosing a son-in-law, it is not a good thing to be too violent to teach.
Fortunately, the embarrassing situation passed in a flash, because Shengjia had already announced at this time.
As everyone guessed, the crown prince and Yu Wang Yi left and right to help the old emperor appear, and Princess Jingning then escorted.
After the emperor was seated in the middle, the two princes and Jing Ningfang went down to the jade rank together, led everyone in the national ceremony, and lowered their bodies before they were seated separately.
"Su Qing," Emperor Liang said with a smile, "How are your results?"
"It's no use saying more to the minister, it's better to take a closer look at your majesty." Mei Changsu beckoned the three children and knelt down in a row.
Emperor Liang looked at the little three figures, and then looked at the muscular Belich, and after all, his heart was a little bottomless. He couldn't help but look back at the sincerity.
"Your Majesty, does this begin?" Mengzhi took the opportunity to bow and ask.
The arrow had been wound and had to be fired. Emperor Liang concealed a bit of worry in his eyes and nodded.
The three children got up, one of them held a sword, the finished character stood, and their expressions were extremely firm. The sense of condensedness and the shrinking state of two days ago was like a mud, first let the bystanders mind. One vibrates.
Bairich came off empty-handed, glanced at the opponent in front of him with disdain, and casually set a momentum.
"Start!" Ordered by Mengzhi together, a breeze suddenly rolled up in the field. The three children turned like a gyroscope, and their footwork was staggered like a flower. People immediately feel a flower in front of them.
The golden carving of Chai Ming in Dayu Kingdom immediately became interested. He stood up and was about to take a closer look. Suddenly he felt a strong murderous attack coming from the side, and his heart was awkward. He could not help but look back at the past, only to see the beam The first master, King Jinling, the forbidden army commander, Meng Zhi, is staring at him fiercely. The male anger in the eyes is like the hatred of the father ’s killing the father and the wife, so Chai Ming ca n’t help but fight. After a chill, he stabilized his mind and thought about where he offended him.
The martial arts of Lord Nihuang is also famous for its gorgeousness. At the sight of the erratic figure, he was attracted. When leaning forward and observing closely, a sudden exclaimed "Oh" came from Mei Changsu. Can't help blinking, turning his head to look, but he saw that he overturned the tea bowl on the table, forcibly turned sideways to let the tea dripping from the edge of the table, the stupid look was completely the same as the usual calm and elegant, attracting the master Pout a smile.
When the two masters were distracted at the same time, there were several suppressed hums on the field, and then a thump, the three children leaped after the sword, the light and shadow disappeared, and when everyone looked at it again, Bai Liqi was half kneeling on the ground , Supporting his body with his arms, his face full of anger is unwilling.
"Won!"
"Won!"
Yan Yujin and Princess Jingning cheered at the same time.
Although Emperor Liang was emperor-like, he also smiled.
Chai Ming, who was condensing his mind against the fierce anger, suddenly felt his body loose, and just now an inconsistent Mongolian leader changed his face, and showed him a sincere and friendly smile. At that moment, he felt himself. Was it just a dream?
"Bali Warrior, how are you?" Bei Yan was rushing out with anger and anxiety.
"Senior Ambassador, don't worry, we won't hurt the guests." Mei Changsu smiled and gestured to the three children, "Thank you, Your Majesty Ron."
The Little Three Musketeers immediately knocked their heads away, and Emperor Liang was very pleased, saying: "You have made a contribution, I don't say anything, remove the status of criminal slave, you can be placed by your company, or you can trust your relatives and friends."
Princess Jingning rejoiced and immediately said, "The father is really kind."
Emperor Liang looked at his younger daughter and suddenly thought: "Jing Ning, do you really like these children so much? Since they have such sword formation skills, you might as well clean up and go to serve you, because you are better than ordinary guards Some of them, because they have nothing to worry about, they can be considered a comfort zone ... "
As soon as this statement came out, both Mei Changsu and Jing Wang lost their color, especially Jing Wang, who almost jumped up almost immediately and was stopped by Mei Changsu's eyes.
"Your Majesty's remarks are not appropriate," at this time, the person who directly objected was actually Xiao Jingrui. He stood up and saluted, and said in a loud voice, "Your Majesty's purpose is to let them go out of the secluded court, to allow them freedom in the future.
Chrysostom has been opened, how can it be withdrawn? What's more, they don't understand the rules of the inner palace, and they have no benefit.
Waiting for the princess can not carry weapons with him, this sword array is also useless.
Jing Rui felt that even Princess Jingning herself did not necessarily want them to purify herself into the inner palace. "
Princess Jingning said busyly, "Yeah, yeah, there are some eunuchs in Ning'er Palace. What do you want them to do? The father emperor rewards what Ning'er wants."
Emperor Liang always loved Xiao Jingrui very much, and was not angry with his outspoken words. He waved his hand to sit down and skipped the matter.
Mei Changsu had a cold sweat thinly.
"Mr. Su is well-trained, and he should be the first to do the job. After the county master's paper test is over, I will award it separately." Emperor Liang was in a good mood at this time, but he actually poured a glass of wine and sent it to Mei Chang Su. Mr. Jing has a drink to congratulate this battle. "
Mei Chang Su Xieen took the cup and swallowed it. He couldn't help but coughed up and tried his best to hold back, flushing on his face.
Emperor Liang again pretended to comfort Bai Liqi and Bei Yan's envoys, and happily drove back to the palace.
As soon as he left, Mei Changsu covered his mouth with his sleeves and coughed down. Xiao Jingrui leaped across the table and helped him pat his back. Prince and Yu Wang also came over and asked.
"It's okay ... Your Majesty's royal wine is too fragrant ..." After coughing for a while, Mei Changsu let go of his lips and leaned against Xiao Jingrui's arm and raised his head.
The prince and Yu Wang expressed their concerns and stood close to each other.
However, as in the last Wuyingdian banquet, neither of them had the slightest fragrance of ambergris, which shows that it was done deliberately, not by coincidence.
Mei Changsu was convinced again.
There must be a prince's introspection around Yuwang.
"Doesn't matter? Do you want to take a break and go again?" Niuhuang County Lord was invited to speak by a female officer just now, so he came to greet him at this time.
"It's okay." Mei Changsu smiled faintly, and turned to Prince and Yuwang. "These two His Highness are busy every day. If Su Mou is delayed, he can't afford it."
The crown prince and Yu Wang seemed to have something to do, plus they couldn't behave too entangled, so they were polite and turned away.
Mu Qing pulled Yan Yujin away with one hand, and pushed Xiao Jingrui with the other, but didn't.
"Brother Su is still unstable." Although Xiao Jingrui knew that Mu Qing meant to let her sister get along with Mei Changsu alone, she still stood still.
Nihuang County Master couldn't help but smile, and looked at Master Xiao Xiao with amusement, Fang whispered to Mei Changsu: "The queen's lady really invited me to the palace to have a banquet. This must be agreed, I went."
"Sovereign Lord," Mei Changsu stopped her quickly, sighed after thinking about it without any unnecessary words, and only said the word "Take care".
After Lord Nihuang had left, there were no more people left in the hall.
Mei Changsu did feel extremely unwell, and he could not take the illegal ride in the banquet hall, so he had to sit down and rest for a while. Xiao Jingrui and Yan Yujin naturally stayed with him.
Princess Jingning has been talking with Jing Wang all the time. At this moment, as if it had just come to an end, Xiao Jingyan came and greeted him. After a few words, everyone had nothing to say. Jing Wang turned around and called Tingsheng to speak aside. .
Because the emperor directly drove to the concubine's residence, Mengzhi did not accompany him.
Because he was secretly worried about Lin Shu, he did n’t leave. He called two other children in the hall and ordered them to play. He said that he was very interested, and he moved in. Only Xiao Jingrui came to Mei Chang carefully. Su stood beside him, watching the cold sweat oozing from his forehead and asked in a low voice: "Is this glass of wine so strong? Is it sick?"
Mei Changsu suppressed the hidden pain in his inner breath, and knew in his heart that the old injury was aroused by the wine. He didn't want to speak and just sat silently.
Meng Zhi looked at this for a while, and finally couldn't help but rushed over.
"What's wrong with Mr. Su?"
"I don't know," Xiao Jingrui's voice trembled nervously. "After so long, it's not good at all."
"Let's see." Meng Zhi reached out his hand to catch his veins, frowning immediately, lifting his breath and invigorating, and inputting an internal force to calm his injury.
At this time, Yujin, Jingjing and Princess Jingning all found out that they were wrong and rushed over together.
The three children stared blankly in anxiety.
Half an hour later, Mengzhi Fang took a breath and looked slightly pale.
Mei Changsu withdrew his wrists and whispered thanks, and his voice was slightly emboldened.
"Frightened me ..." Yan Yujin was most afraid of this dignified atmosphere and exhaled. "Finally, it's all right.
Brother Su's body is too easy to get out of the way, so it really needs to be taken care of.
Jing Rui, we will quickly send Brother Su back home, and the polo match that we had today will probably not be able to be played ... "
"Of course not playing! Do you still have the mood to play?" Xiao Jingrui was very unhappy.
"I didn't have to fight, but I always wanted to tell Ting Jie that I had made an appointment."
"Just go tell him and I won't go."
Mei Changsu listened to the two of them, and always felt a strange feeling flashed in his brain, but he couldn't catch it for a moment, so he frowned.
"Why, uncomfortable again?" Xiao Jingrui asked quickly.
"No ... you just said ... who was invited to play polo?"
"Liao Tingjie, you do n’t know him, he is the son of Chou Suhouye ..."
As if a flash of light flashed over, the strange sensations that had been felt since some time this morning surged at the same time, and Mei Changsu suddenly figured out something, and there was a shudder in his chest.
The governor has been invited into the palace, and according to the truth, the queen and Yu Wang should have arranged all aspects of this trick. Why ... Why did Liao Tingjie, who was appointed as the husband of the governor in the Yu Wang camp, still be in Outside the palace to make an appointment to play polo?
Last night, every word spoken by Princess Changyang quickly flashed through my mind again, and the most unusual point was immediately caught.
The Princess said that she was aware of the conspiracy because Xie Bi was restlessly seen by her and forced to know.
But Xie Bi's mood was quite good this morning. When he went out, he made a joke about the Niuhuang County Master. He didn't feel ashamed at all.
On the other hand, it is extremely risky for the queen and the emperor to set this plan. At most a few helpers know that they must never spread the ears of others.
Xie Bi can't do anything to help with this kind of Gong Wei secret. Yu Wang has nothing to do and tell him what to do?
Therefore, Princess Linyang is lying, in a place where she feels insignificant and difficult to tell, because she could not have known it from Xie Bi. The source of the news should be her husband, Ning Guohou Xie jade.
Only a few people knew about the practice of the Empress Dowager that year, and Xie Yu was one of them.
If he offers time to the person he supports and is heard by Princess Changyang, even if there are only a few words, she will immediately understand.
The most critical misunderstanding is at this last step.
Princess Laiyang introduced Xie Bi for the sake of obscurity, and Mei Changsu knew that Xie Bi was a king-worthy person, so naturally, he thought that the person who wanted to take this poison was the queen.
What he didn't think for a while was that this matter had nothing to do with Xie Bi, but his father Xie Yu's handwriting.
As for Xie Yu's position ... Xie Yu's position ...
Mei Changsu breathed quickly, clenching the roots of his teeth.
What is neutral? What's outside the snatch? Others don't know, they should know what kind of person Xie Yu is.
He was tainted and knew that he could not be a pure minister. How could he not plan for the future when the old emperor was old? Xie Bi's high-profile support for the honorary king has already offended the prince. Once the prince succeeds, the Xie family will also be degraded, so the neutrality in this case is meaningless. With Xie Yu's savvy, how can it be done meaningless Thing? But the fact is, he just seemed to be stupid, and his son and Yu Wang fought together, but he was acting like no one.
This shows that he has his own seamless plan, which will allow him to enjoy honor after winning any party.
Xie Bimingli supported the honorary king, and Xie Yu secretly supported the prince.
He told the prince again that Xie Bi was doing it for him, and occasionally retrieved some information to confirm it, so Yu Wang was hidden in the drum, and the prince was even more happy.
As long as the success is concealed, the future situation will be: King Yu won, because of Xie Bi, the Xie family will not fall, the prince won, Xie Yu father and son are heroes, more beneficial.
So Xie Yu is in the bones and really wants to support the prince.
Thinking of this festival, Mei Changsu had dripped cold sweat on his forehead.
The real danger is not the Queen ’s Zhengyang Palace, but the Zhaoren Palace, where the crown prince ’s mother-in-law was concubine.
Now that the governor has been in the palace for a long time, if she listens to her suggestion and only guards against the queen, will she relax at the place of the Concubine Viet Nam and catch the trap of others?
If this worst-case scenario occurs, if you calculate the time, it may be too late ...
"His Royal Highness King, please go to the palace to inquire immediately. If the governor goes to the Concubine's Zhaoren Palace, you must rush over immediately and find her at all costs," Mei Changsu stood up fiercely, clutching Jing tightly. Wang's hand shouted, "The Lord Nihuang is in danger now, I will tell you later, go now, go now!"
Although Xiao Jingyan was covered with fog, he saw that his expression was serious enough to be almost sad, and he immediately believed it and turned away.
"Princess Jingning, please, come to the grandmother immediately ... The empress dowager moved her to the Zhaoren Palace immediately, which is also to save the Nihuang, you must fight every second ..." Mei Changsu then turned to Xiao Jingning, The tone is still fast, "The princess still remembers to owe me a favor, please pay it back at this time."
Xiao Jingning stepped back two steps, a little confused, but when he heard that it was to save Nihuang Huang, he felt a sudden tremor in his heart, and was unable to think about it. He immediately took action.
"Monarch, please trouble to arrange personnel immediately and ambush around Zhaoren Palace. If you see Sima Lei, the prince of the second lieutenant, come out and immediately win the crime of" unauthorized entry ", is there any problem?"
Meng Zhi didn't ask much, patting his shoulder with a "reassure" and flew out immediately.
There were only two noble sons in the main hall who had no idea what was going on, staring blankly at Mei Changsu.
"Brother Su ... what is going on?" After a while, he asked Yujin.
Mei Changsu closed his eyes, his expression was extremely tired, and his lips sighed with a heavy sigh, murmured: "It's all my fault ... I understand something wrong ... Now I only hope ... Bad results have not happened yet ... "
