Chapter 842: Small game, the plan to eliminate Xie Yu begins
Mei Changsu slowly put down his wine glass and said with a smile: "I'm half drunk. Sitting like this is boring. I came up with a way to play it last night. I wonder if you are interested."
As soon as he heard that there was some fun, Mu Qing, the youngest and most amusing person, quickly put down the wine glass to his lips and said happily: "The idea that Jiang Zuo Meilang came up with, even if you don't play, you still have to ask Mr. Su what it is."
,What do you think."
Because Mu Nihuang knew Mei Changsu's identity, she had been in contact with Mei Changsu more frequently in the past few months. Even during the Chinese New Year, Mei Changsu personally visited Prince Mu's Mansion.
Mu Qing saw that his sister had a very good attitude towards Mei Changsu, although he felt that Mei Changsu was too weak and her personality was not as good as Zhou Chen's.
But thinking that Brother Yu already had a woman, and she was a woman from a brothel, he felt that he could not let his sister suffer this injustice. In comparison, although Jiangzuo Meilang was weak, he had no romantic affairs. Although he had no force, he was very
Being smart is also a good choice.
He lamented in his heart that although his sister failed to live up to expectations, his younger brother had to worry about his sister's marriage.
Mei Changsu said with a smile: "I had a chance to get a bamboo slip musical score before. I have been deciphering it for a long time. It seems to be a long-lost ancient piece of music, Guangling San."
Yan Yujin was so excited that he stood up and asked, but Xia Chun asked first, "Is it really Guangling San?"
Xia Chun is also a music fanatic, and he is also very eager for lost music scores such as Guangling San.
Mei Changsu said: "I hid this score somewhere in the garden last night. You can look it up indoors and outdoors. Whoever finds it first will get this score as a gift."
Meng Zhi, Mu Nihuang and Xia Dong, the three people who knew about the situation in Su's house, all changed their faces drastically when they heard that Mei Changsu actually let everyone rummage around. They no longer smiled at all.
Especially Xia Dong, who was so nervous that she couldn't control her expression and her hands were trembling.
Because she also knew the secret passage between the Su Mansion and Prince Jing's Mansion, and her husband Nie Feng was hiding in the secret passage. If anyone found the secret passage, Nie Feng would definitely be exposed.
Although Nie Feng was not labeled as Chi Yan's rebellious person at the beginning, if the news of his resurrection from the dead spread, it would definitely cause an uproar. At that time, he would become a thorn in the side of Xia Jiang and Xie Yu, a thorn in their flesh, and they would try their best to get rid of him.
.
So she was actually more nervous than Meng Zhi and Mu Nihuang, and even kept gesturing towards Mei Changsu with her eyes, but Mei Changsu seemed not to notice and remained motionless.
Xia Dong had no choice but to turn to look at Zhou Chen, hoping that Zhou Chen could persuade Mei Changsu.
But instead of saying anything, Zhou Chen raised his wine glass and gestured to Xia Dong. Xia Dong was so angry that she glared at him fiercely.
Of course Zhou Chen knew why Mei Changsu did this, but Meng Zhi and the others didn't, so they were so nervous.
Yan Yujin asked happily: "Brother Su, are you serious about this?"
"Of course." Mei Changsu nodded with a smile.
"Very good."
Yan Yujin pulled up Xiao Jingrui and Mu Qing next to him and said, "Jing Rui, Mr. Mu, how about three of us in a team?"
"Okay." Mu Qing and Xiao Jingrui both had no objections.
Prince Yu laughed and said: "Yujin will find helpers. Neither of them are people who like music theory. If they really find them, it will be Yujin's in the end."
Everyone laughed.
Xia Chun said confidently: "It's too early to tell who will die and who will lose the flowers."
Xia Dongyang pretended to be calm and said: "Brother Chun, do you need help? I can help you find it?"
Xia Chun said: "If junior sister is willing, of course I won't mind."
Xia Dong looked at Zhou Chen again: "I heard that Gong Ziyu is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but can also write poems and lyrics, and is also good at music. I must be interested in Guangling San as well, right?"
"I……"
Zhou Chen was about to speak when Mu Nihuang suddenly said: "I'm also interested. If Brother Chen doesn't mind, can we form a team?"
Zhou Chen instinctively wanted to refuse, but found that Mu Nihuang and Xia Dong were staring at him, and in the end he could only nod with a wry smile.
"All right."
Yan Yujin took the lead to leave the pavilion, and then everyone else also left one by one. In the end, only Mei Changsu, Yu Wang, Meng Zhi and Qin Banruo were left in the pavilion.
Yan Yujin took Xiao Jingrui and Mu Qing and started searching around the yard, while Xia Chun quickly went inside the house.
Xia Dong said: "Brother Chun, you look here, I'll go over there and help you look for it."
"Okay, you go."
Xia Chun has already been attracted by Guangling Powder. He only wants to find Guangling Powder. As for other things, he doesn't care at all.
Zhou Chen followed Mu Nihuang, but before he entered the house, he saw Xia Dong walking over in a hurry.
"Nihuang, Xiaochen."
Mu Nihuang pulled Xia Dong, then winked at Zhou Chen, and the three of them quickly walked into Mei Changsu's room.
As soon as he entered the room, Xia Dong couldn't wait to ask: "What's going on with Xiao Shu? How can he let people randomly search his garden? What if the secret passage he built is discovered? Xiao Shu?"
Chen, why didn’t you stop him from doing such a dangerous thing?”
Mu Nihuang also asked: "I don't understand why this is happening. Do you know the reason?"
Zhou Chen was helpless. To be honest, Mei Changsu had never told him about this matter, but even if he didn't know the plot, he could understand why Mei Changsu did what he did.
He is confident in the secret tunnel he built and is not afraid of being found. Even if it is found by Xia Chun and others, he will still have a way to circumvent it.
But facing these two aggressive women, he could only bite the bullet and said: "I don't know about this either, but don't worry too much. Based on my understanding of him, no accident will happen."
Xia Dong said anxiously: "What if? What if we are discovered? My Brother Chun is very good at the art of Qimen Dunjia. If he discovers the problem and finds the secret passage, we will be in big trouble."
Zhou Chen said: "If you hadn't already known the location of the secret passage and asked you to search for it out of thin air, would you have been able to find it?"
"How can you assume that?" Xia Dong didn't believe this at all. She only cared about her husband not being discovered.
Zhou Chen sighed: "Don't worry, he can't find Xia Chun."
Xia Dong was still worried. She glanced at the direction of the secret passage in Mei Changsu's room. She knew that Nie Feng was inside the secret passage, but now she couldn't go down to see him.
"Let's go out. The longer we stay here, the more suspicion we will arouse."
Seeing Zhou Chen's confidence, Xia Dong and Mu Nihuang had no choice but to follow Zhou Chen out.
They had just walked out a few steps when they saw Qin Banruo walking over quickly. After seeing them, he saluted with a friendly smile, then walked to the next room and started looking for something.
Mu Nihuang frowned and said: "Isn't she the person brought by King Yu? I remember brother Lin Shu mentioned that he is a powerful person, why is she also involved?"
Xia Dong worriedly said: "I think this woman is sneaky and has no good intentions. She is definitely not a good person. Do you want to take care of her?"
Zhou Chen shrugged and said, "You can go and stare if you want. I don't have the time to spare. I'll find a place to rest first."
After saying that, he ignored the dissatisfied looks in the two women's eyes and walked away, not wanting to join in the fun.
After finding a place to relax for a while, he slowly returned to the pavilion. When he came back, he found that everyone had returned and they were chatting happily.
Yan Yujin saw that he had not come back until now, and immediately laughed and said: "Brother Yu, where have you been? I have already found the music score, why are you not back until now?"
Zhou Chen said: "When I was looking for something just now, I found a martial arts secret book. The secret book that Brother Su can collect must be extraordinary, so I was fascinated by it. I didn't think of it until now. Brother Su, do you mind?"
Mei Changsu responded with a smile: "Brother Yu, you're welcome, it's just a martial arts secret book. If it can get into Brother Yu's eyes, that's its destination."
"Brother Su is indeed a great talent, and he speaks so nicely." Zhou Chen complimented.
Everyone stayed in the pavilion for a long time, and finally the banquet was over and everyone left.
The others really left, but Mu Nihuang, Meng Zhi, Xia Dong and Zhou Chen did not leave. They left openly and secretly returned to Mei Changsu's room.
After Mei Changsu finished seeing the people off, he returned to the room and saw Zhou Chen and the others.
"You moved very quickly. Not long after you left, you came back again."
Meng Zhi had a dark face and shouted very dissatisfied: "Xiao Shu, you are so messy, how can you let them rummage around here at will? It really scared me into a cold sweat, Qin Banruo said
Xia Chun is well-known as a master of traps, what if they discover the secret passage?"
Mei Changsu said calmly: "I designed this game just for them. The secret passage that neither Qin Banruo nor Xia Chun can discover is the real secret passage."
Meng Zhi said anxiously, "This secret passage leads to Prince Jing's Mansion. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst."
Mei Changsu said: "I specially built this secret passage. Even if I let them dig it out, they would only see a secret room. I am not completely sure. How could I take this risk? Didn't you see the little one?
Are you not in a hurry, Chen?"
Xia Dong glared at Zhou Chen: "Yes, he is not anxious at all, but you two scared us half to death."
Mei Changsu smiled and asked Li Gang to take Xia Dong to bring Nie Feng out of the secret passage. They talked for a while. The main thing was that Mei Changsu asked Zhou Chen and the others not to tell Prince Jing.
, about his true identity.
He knew Prince Jing Xiao Jingyan very well. If Prince Jing knew his true identity, Prince Jing would definitely be worried about many of the subsequent plans, and many things would not be easy to carry out.
After Meng Zhi and others learned about Mei Changsu's plan, of course they had no choice but to agree and persuade them, and then Mei Changsu went alone from the secret passage to see Prince Jing.
End of March!
In Mei Changsu's room, there were only two people, Zhou Chen and Mei Changsu.
"Lin Chen acted very quickly, and things went very smoothly. The Nanchu delegation will be arriving in Beijing soon. They are here in the name of seeking marriage."
When Mei Changsu got the news, he shared it with Zhou Chen as soon as possible. This was a very important part of their plan.
It is necessary to have Yuwen Nian, the princess of Nanchu, to confirm Xiao Jingrui's identity. Otherwise, their words are unfounded, and no matter how true they are, they will easily arouse suspicion.
Zhou Chen said: "This senior brother of mine usually does nothing, but he is still trustworthy in his work. It will be Jingrui's birthday in ten days. To be honest, Jingrui is such a good person. If he knows the truth of the matter, he will definitely be greatly punished.
Blow, ugh.”
If his relationship with Xiao Jingrui was just ordinary, he would not have such emotion, but Xiao Jingrui is indeed a gentleman worthy of close friendship. After getting along with him for so long, he sincerely regards Xiao Jingrui as a friend.
He really couldn't bear to do something to hurt his friends now, but he could control himself and knew that he had to do it.
"Why am I not?"
Mei Changsu also had a complicated expression, but he quickly regained his composure.
"We have no retreat now. Xie Yu must knock him down with one blow on April 12th."
Zhou Chen nodded and said: "You are right, Jing Rui is innocent, but how can we not be innocent?"
Mei Changsu was silent for a while, and then said: "The Nanchu delegation has entered the capital, and Gong Yu will need to appear next. Are you willing?"
Zhou Chen said: "To be honest, I really can't bear to part with her, but I know how to choose. When she takes action, I will follow and keep an eye on her. I have been to Ning Guohou's Mansion many times and I know the guards very well. Nothing will happen to her."
"
"With your words, I feel relieved."
Mei Changsu knew that Zhou Chen was a very protective person, and Gong Yu was Zhou Chen's woman, so he had some scruples.
"I'll tell Gong Yu tonight."
At night, Zhou Chen told Gong Yu about this.
After hearing this, Gong Yu said firmly: "I can do it. I have been waiting for this day for too long. Young Master, I will definitely not let you and the sect master down."
Seeing how determined she was, Zhou Chen could only say: "Well, I believe you. I will follow you when the time comes. Don't let yourself get hurt too much. I will feel bad for you, you know?"
"I know, Young Master." Gong Yu leaned on Zhou Chen's chest and replied softly.
The Nanchu delegation finally arrived at Jinling City. Emperor Liang actually asked King Yu to be in charge of welcoming the Nanchu delegation. You must know that the Nanchu delegation was led by a prince this time. According to etiquette, the person in charge of the meeting was senior to the prince.
According to one standard, only the prince is qualified to greet Emperor Liang on his behalf.
However, Emperor Liang did not let the prince come out. Instead, he asked King Yu to greet him. This made King Yu feel very complicated. He couldn't get up or get down, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
Emperor Liang's operations didn't stop there. After the Southern Chu delegation arrived in Beijing, he also issued a decree to let Mu Nihuang return to the southern border to garrison.
Of course Mu Nihuang didn't want to leave, because there were several people she cared about most in the capital, but she couldn't object to Emperor Liang's order and could only accept it.
…………
It has been raining lightly for more than a day.
Zhou Chen and Mei Changsu stood under the eaves, quietly watching the raindrops outside.
"Nihuang is going back to the south, did you know?"
"Oh, it's okay to go back to the southern border. The capital is a big whirlpool, not a good place."
Mei Changsu looked at Zhou Chen who showed no reaction and sighed softly.
"Actually, you don't have to worry about me so much. I can feel that Nihuang treats you..."
"Stop it, Xiao Shu, you also know me, so there is no need to say the following words."
"well."
Mei Changsu sighed again and stopped trying to persuade him.
"We have the right time, the right location, the right people, and now we have them all. We are just waiting for April 12th to deal a fatal blow to Xie Yu."
"You also need to consider another issue. Zhuo Qingyao and Xie Qi are husband and wife. If this matter is exposed, they will also be victims. Zhuo Qingyao is okay, but Xie Qi is pregnant now, and
The month is already quite long, and once you receive too much stimulation, it is very likely to cause premature labor. By then..."
"You are also related to her, so I think you should take this matter into consideration."
Mei Changsu's face changed slightly. He thought of Xiao Jingrui, but he really didn't think of Xie Qi. This incident was a huge stimulus to Xiao Jingrui, but it was also the same to her. Her loving husband suddenly became her biological child.
Father's enemy is definitely a major stimulus for a young lady from the Hou family who has never experienced any major events.
"When the time comes, I will remind Princess Weiyang that she is someone who has seen big scenes and will definitely be able to hold her own."
"I hope so."
Zhou Chen sighed lightly. In the plot, Xie Qi died due to dystocia and massive hemorrhage. In fact, with his help, he had a lot of confidence in saving Xie Qi.
But he also knew that this was not a modern society after all, but an ancient feudal society. She was also the eldest daughter of the Hou family. How could she let a man help deliver the baby? For a woman, this was as serious as ruining her innocence.
That's why he reminded Mei Changsu, hoping that Mei Changsu could think of a way.
"Nihuang will leave tomorrow. Xiaochen, go to the city gate to see her off. Don't think too much. Even if she is a friend, you still have reason to see her off."
Zhou Chen thought about it for a moment and finally said: "Okay, I understand and I will go."
The next day, at the gate of Jinling City!
A large group of people gathered near the city gate. This was Mu Nihuang's large army heading back to the south.
A group of people were seeing off Mu Nihuang, Mu Qing, Xia Dong, Xiao Jingrui, Yan Yujin and others were there.
Mu Nihuang said goodbye to them one by one, but when she was saying goodbye, she couldn't help but look towards the city gate.
Xia Dong knew Mu Nihuang's thoughts, walked to her side, and said softly: "He probably won't come."
Mu Nihuang looked disappointed, but she quickly recovered. Just when she was about to leave, a large group of people suddenly rushed over, and it turned out to be Yu Wenxuan, the mausoleum king of Southern Chu.
…………
Zhou Chen was sitting quietly in the pavilion outside the capital. This pavilion was not big, but people going to and from Jinling would pass by here, especially those who were bidding farewell.
He was going to send Mu Nihuang off, but he didn't plan to send it off with the others at the city gate. Instead, he came here to wait for Mu Nihuang.
He understood what Mei Changsu meant, but he still didn't want to think about it that way.
After waiting for two hours, I finally saw a long team heading in this direction. It was Mu Nihuang's southern team.
So he stood up. It was so obvious here that he believed Mu Nihuang would definitely see him.
