Chapter 93 Confidential Talk

Zhou Mengchen had not yet waited for Lu Bing to receive him. He had first waited for the prisoner offering ceremony.

In fact, this prisoner offering ceremony has been held once. After Zhou Mengchen conquered Qingcheng and sent the Mongolian nobles to the capital, there was a prisoner offering, which was no longer new to Zhou Mengchen. However, it was not exciting to the Ming Dynasty court. National Ceremony.

All civil and military officials, dukes, marquises and counts must be among them.

Zhou Mengchen is even more of the top priority.

However, at this moment, Zhou Mengchen had no intention of paying attention to the issue of offering prisoners.

First of all, in major ritual occasions, even the emperor himself was just a puppet. Zhou Mengchen had no room for freedom to play. There were certain rules when he came forward, what he said, and when he stepped down, and he almost didn't care.

As long as there is no mistake, it is fine.

Secondly, he never expected that Lu Bing chose to see him at this prisoner offering ceremony.

This surprised Zhou Mengchen, but found that it was very suitable.

As the closest person to the emperor, Lu Bing almost has no private life. Lu Bing has many beautiful concubines, but most of them stay alone in empty rooms. Is it because Lu Bing can't do it? No, it's because Lu Bing lives in the palace most of the time. He is familiar with the palace, more familiar than his own home.

So if Lu Bing wants to find a secret time to meet Zhou Mengchen, it will be very conspicuous if he leaves the palace. It will be inconspicuous if he is in the palace.

The heavy burden of the Jinyiwei, which is the most burden of maintaining order and ensuring safety, can be said that the Jinyiwei has been under the supervision of the three floors of the Jinyiwei and the three floors of the three floors of the Jinyiwei. At this time, Lu Bing told His Majesty that he wanted to go out quickly, and Jiajing would not be suspicious.

In public, no one would have thought that it would be the time for both sides to have a secret talk.

At this time, all kinds of sounds came from outside, such as the sound of whimpering horns, the sound of whips, and the sound of people neatly walking, and even the sound of elephants' hissings. There are elephants in the palace, and there is even an elephant guard in Guangxi, which specializes in providing elephants for the palace. However, this elephant is precious and is rarely seen on important occasions. Especially, Jiajing rarely appears in front of ministers. The scene of elephant opening is even rarer.

And it is in a small room next to Fengtian Gate.

Lu Bing was wearing a python robe and said, "You are not a person who doesn't know the importance of it. I believe you today. If you don't explain it clearly, Zhou Mengchen, you will pay the price."

As Zhou Mengchen said, Lu Bing had all kinds of problems, but he had absolutely no problem with loyalty to Jiajing. Although he was kind to others, he paid great attention to keeping a distance from the ministers. He would not easily get close to anyone, let alone such a close meeting.

If it weren't for what Zhou Mengchen said, it would be too horrible. Lu Bing wouldn't have come to see him. Time was tight, so Zhou Mengchen didn't say much. He told Lu Bing all the things about the ravens, and did not hide some of the details that Xu Jie sent He Xinyin to tell him.

Lu Bing's face remained unchanged, but Zhou Mengchen could feel that the air around Lu Bing was a little solemn.

Lu Bing said: "Are you sure what you said is true?"

Zhou Mengchen said: "Whatever I say, sir, should sir, believe what? Shouldn't sir, sir, go and check it?"

Lu Bing said: "I will."

Zhou Mengchen said, "Sir, please hurry up, because I will talk to Your Majesty about this matter today."

Lu Bing said: "What do you mean?"

Although Lu Bing has the largest intelligence network in the entire Ming Dynasty, it is difficult for Lu Bing to investigate the efficiency of this era within one day. Not to mention, according to today's process, Zhou Mengchen would be summoned by Jiajing immediately after offering prisoners.

The time left for Lu Bing is only one or two hours.

In other words, Zhou Mengchen did not leave any time for Lu Bing to investigate.

Zhou Mengchen said, "It's not what I mean, but I didn't expect that the lord would remember to see me at this time. I have long been preparing to report this matter to His Majesty."

Lu Bing said in a heavy tone, "Then why do you want to see me?"

Zhou Mengchen said: "This matter is of great importance. I think Lord Lu knows how many risks there are before this. I will think of all the complete strategies I can think of before. I know Lord Lu is loyal to His Majesty, so I want to say hello in advance, but I never expected that Lord Lu is so cautious."

When Zhou Mengchen said the word "cautious", his tone was a little strange. He seemed to be secretly mocking Lu Bing for thinking too much.

Actually, it’s not Lu Bing’s fault.

Lu Bing has always kept a distance from the people in the court, and Zhou Mengchen suddenly passed on a message saying that he wanted to see him. Lu Bing had no idea how many thoughts he had turned into. He was the one who felt that Zhou Mengchen would never say anything out of thin air.

But he didn't expect that he would encounter such a problem.

Lu Bing was speechless for a moment.

Zhou Mengchen continued, "Sir, I don't care about Your Majesty's safety. I still care. This medicine seems harmless, but in fact it's endless poison. Once Your Majesty takes it, it's too late."

Lu Bing became more and more calm and said, "Mr. Zhou, it was also because of this incident that came from Jiangnan."

Zhou Mengchen said: "That's right."

Lu Bing suddenly stood up and said, "I understand."

Zhou Mengchen was about to ask Lu Bing what to do? Lu Bing actually got up and left.

Zhou Mengchen was stunned for a moment. He pressed step by step, but actually hoped that Lu Bing would say something beneficial to Zhou Mengchen when the emperor asked about it or other occasions.

But he never expected Lu Bing to leave like this.

It seems like nothing has happened.

Zhou Mengchen secretly pondered: "Is it because I'm pushing too hard?"

Zhou Mengchen had been planning for this meeting for a long time, so when both sides met and spoke, the rhythm was under Zhou Mengchen's control. Lu Bing fell into Zhou Mengchen's context and could not break free.

Perhaps ordinary people will follow Zhou Mengchen's rhythm at this time.

But Lu Bing is not an ordinary person.

Everyone who plays chess knows that you must strive for the first place. You must strive for the first place. If you can't compete for the first place, then start a new job from other places. The same is true for Lu Bing now. You should know that you already know and continue, but Zhou Mengchen led it away.

Then why bother to stay?

Although reality is not Go. Things in front of you cannot be put aside. At least you don’t show any embarrassment in front of your opponent, and give yourself some buffering time. Find strategies to deal with it.

As a result, Zhou Mengchen became a little nervous.

Although he thought about it, Lu Bing would not ignore this matter and could not react to behaviors that harm Jiajing's body. But what if Zhou Mengchen left the capital for several years, will there be any other changes in the capital?

Lu Bing had a grudge with Yan Song, which happened a few years ago. Is there any change now?

After all, for politicians, hatred is not the first priority. Interest is. Although in the eyes of outsiders, Lu Bing has always been loyal to Jiajing, Zhou Mengchen was also worried that this might be an appearance?

"Has I been alerting the enemy?" Zhou Mengchen pressed his mind and decided not to think about it randomly.

Things have come to this point and nothing is useful to think about.

In ancient times, there were different characteristics, but the key point of political struggle in the Ming Dynasty was to control the imperial power. In other words, if you got the support of the emperor, you simply forced the emperor to support it.

No matter how much preparation Zhou Mengchen made, he still had to decide the winner in front of the imperial court. He convinced Jiajing that everything would be fine and he would not agree. Only then could he be able to backfire. Zhou Mengchen met Lu Bing in advance was just an additional insurance.

It's time to do everything. The rest is the final battle.

Zhou Mengchen closed his eyes and rested in the room. Suddenly, a small eunuch pushed the door and said, "Master Zhou, Lord Zhou, it's your turn, don't miss the time."

Zhou Mengchen packed a big red court suit, the hat on his head, and said, "Come here."

Then he followed the little eunuch.
