Chapter 19 The past is like smoke

"What did you say?" Meng Zhi was shocked and almost couldn't help but jump up, "His Royal Highness King Qi has a child?!"

"You don't even know?" Mei Changsu was a little surprised, "Jingyan kept it a secret. But it's no wonder. If a trace of the news leaked to the ears of the prince or Prince Yu, Ting Sheng would be dead..."

"Is this news true?" Meng Zhi showed an unbelievable expression, "All the men in Prince Qi's palace died, and all the female family members were confiscated and sent to Ye Youting. All the people with some status were forced to death in less than a year. How is it possible?

Will there be an orphan who will survive the rest of his life?"

Mei Changsu's eyes were deep, and he pondered for a moment and said: "I can't figure out the connection. However, the princess's sister-in-law is smart and decisive, and Sister Xiu Tong is brave and brave. They are both heroes among women who are not inferior to men, and at that time

The situation was chaotic, and they fought tooth and nail to keep some of Jing Yu's brother's blood hidden in Yeyouting. This was not impossible. Judging from Jingyan's concern for Tingsheng, he should have confirmed the child's identity, no.

It would be wrong.”

"What about your appearance? Does he look like King Qi?"

"This child has been tortured since he was a child. He has a sallow complexion and thin muscles, which is hard to tell. But sometimes, under his eyebrows and under his eyes, there are still some shadows of brother Jing Yu from back then."

"Since King Jing knew that he was the orphan of King Qi, why didn't he take more care of the child and let the child suffer like this!" Meng Zhi couldn't help complaining.

"He has no choice. Taking too much care of a little palace slave for no reason will inevitably arouse people's suspicion. If Ting Sheng's identity is accidentally exposed, how can the Crown Prince and Prince Yu let it go?"

"But we can't just let this child stay in a place like Ye Youting, right?" Meng Zhi stood up excitedly and strode around the room. Fei Liu sat up from the bed and stared at him with cold eyes.

Hold him.

"Fei Liu, go to sleep." Mei Changsu turned around and coaxed, and then said to Meng Zhi, "Brother Meng, please sit down first. If you are anxious, aren't Jingyan and I anxious? Ting Sheng must save him.

Yes, but it must be rescued unscathed using a foolproof method."

"Do you have any ideas?" Meng Zhi asked urgently.

"I have roughly thought about it, but I still need to think more about the details. There is no need to rush this matter, haste makes waste." Mei Changsu glanced at Meng Zhi and raised his eyebrows, "Brother Meng is already here now."

You are the leading expert in Daliang, and you also bear the important responsibility of the Imperial Guard. I have often heard people praise you in Langzhou for your calmness and perseverance, and your heart is as strong as iron. Why are you so out of control today?"

Meng Zhi scratched his head and let out a long sigh, saying: "I don't know why. On other occasions, it would not be difficult for me to collapse without changing my appearance. But talking to you now, it feels like I'm talking to you again."

I am back to being as reckless and aggressive as I was when I was young... Do you still remember the Battle of Hulu Valley? If His Highness King Qi hadn't reined in my horse with three golden orders written by him, I would have fallen into the enemy's trap. Hulu Valley

If I fall behind, your father will definitely pull my head off and kick me hard."

"My father really couldn't believe you at that time, but he also said later that when it comes to people's wisdom, he is not as good as King Qi. It is not true that King Qi can single out one of thousands of soldiers through a martial arts performance.

You are the winner, but he can't do this with this kind of vision..."

"But when it comes to the ferocity and subtlety of military use, who can compare with your father? What kind of iron army would not tremble wherever the Red Flame Army went?" Talking about old things, Meng Zhi only felt the pride that had been dormant for many years.

Swelling up, I only regretted that there was no wine in front of me, so I picked up the tea bowl and took a big sip, saying with emotion: "It's a shame that I was forcibly transferred from the Red Flame Army not long ago. If I could have been trained under King Qi and your Majesty for a few more years,

I’m afraid the current progress is more than this.”

Mei Changsu sighed quietly: "Every loss must be rewarded. If you had not been transferred from the Red Flame Army, not to mention whether you could have escaped the disaster twelve years ago, just based on your identity as the former Red Flame Army

, the position of commander of the Forbidden Army cannot be yours."

When he mentioned it, Meng Zhi immediately thought of something else. He clenched his teeth and said bitterly: "That's not entirely true. Now in the court, there is an old member of Chi Yan who is extremely favored, and his whole body is covered with the 'pillar of the imperial court.'

'Aura?"

Mei Changsu's hand on the table trembled, then stabilized, and his fingertips pressed hard on the red lacquered tabletop, as if to make a few marks.

"It's really uncomfortable to treat him in vain and to maintain a superficial relationship with him all these years." Meng Zhi exhaled for a long time, as if he wanted to vent all the depression in his heart, "And you, why do you want to live here?

?”

"For safety." Mei Changsu said calmly.

"What? Is it safe here?"

"At least it can save you a lot of trouble." Mei Changsu said in a voice as cold as ice, with a chill to his bones. "Using those three young people to go to Beijing, we can quickly get in touch with the important people in the imperial court. This is better than accepting the title of a prince or a prince.

It is much better to be called by the king to serve as a staff member, and to come to Jinling with hands and feet tied up."

Meng Zhi thought for a while and nodded in agreement, but looking at Mei Changsu's tense face, he instinctively avoided going further into the topic, and instead asked about another thing: "What do you think of Princess Nihuang?"

What do you think of this marriage proposal?"

"Mu Mansion in Yunnan is the southern barrier of the country, and the princess has worked hard for the country for many years and delayed her youth. I only hope she can find someone she can truly love this time. Nothing else matters."

"You know, the Crown Prince and Prince Yu have both sent capable men to participate in the competition. If one of them succeeds, your situation will be much more difficult."

"The princess is far smarter and smarter than me, so I don't need to worry about her. It's just that Dayu and Beiyan came to propose marriage even though they knew it would be difficult to succeed. They must have backup plans. You should pay more attention to it.

"

"Um!"

"It's getting late, you should go back. Once the plan to save Tingsheng is mature, I will ask for your help to complete it. Wei Zheng will also trouble you to keep an eye on them as they leave the city, and you will never come back again."

Meng Zhi stood up as he promised, and as soon as he took a step forward, he stopped reluctantly, turned back and stared at Mei Changsu, with no pity in his eyes, but in his heart he knew that what he could do was really limited, and in his heart

Unable to suppress the bursts of sadness, I stretched out my arms and hugged him hard without thinking.

The bed tent moved slightly, and a flying stream of lightning shot out. He used his palm as a blade and cut straight towards Meng Zhi's throat. After he stepped back to avoid it, he immediately turned around and rolled up, and launched several vicious attacks in a row.

"Fei Liu!" Mei Changsu hurriedly stopped him, "Uncle is saying goodbye to me, not bullying me. Fei Liu is not angry..."

"Fei Liu is not allowed!" The young man's cold face exuded anger.

"Okay, okay, it won't be like this anymore." Mei Changsu smiled apologetically at Meng Zhi, "I'm sorry, Brother Meng, my Feiliu has always been like this."

"It doesn't matter, I'm very happy that this child protects you so much." Meng Zhi Chaofei showed a kind smile, "You have to protect him well."

Fei Liu ignored him and still stood firmly beside his brother Su, not moving a step.

"Then I'll leave first," Meng Zhi looked at Mei Changsu deeply and whispered, "Xiao Shu, you have to take care of yourself and don't let anything happen to you, you know?"

Mei Changsu's eyes felt hot, he hurriedly endured it and nodded silently.

Fei Liu stared at Meng Zhi. Although he still had no expression, it was obvious from his eyes that he was very impatient. After Meng Zhi jumped over the window sill and disappeared, he immediately closed the window tightly.

"What? We Feiliu don't like uncle?" Mei Changsu teased him softly.

"dislike!"

"Why?"

"Fei Liu can't beat him!"

"It doesn't matter," Mei Changsu rubbed his hair, "We Feiliu are still young. When you grow up to uncle's age, you will definitely be able to fight."

Fei Liu's face did not change, but his eyes immediately showed joy. Mei Changsu took his hand, personally sent him to the bed to lie down, covered him with a quilt, and softly hummed soft songs.
