The General and His Enemy Your Highness

King Xiping fed the meal with his own hands, and His Highness the Fifth Highness ate most of the bowl.

It wasn't until after serving His Highness that Mei Geng mercifully called the two people outside to come in. Lu Zhibei was so complacent, he entered the door and said, "You don't pay attention in broad daylight. Can you blame us if you see it?"

Chu Ce's cheeks that had just faded from blush turned crimson again, wishing he could wrap himself back in the quilt again.

Mei Geng stretched out his arms and took him into his arms, not shy away from his differences with Chu Ce, and hummed with a half-truth: "If it wasn't for you, I would have gouged out that person's eyes."

It was that feeling again, gloomy, and Lu Zhibei's back shivered.

Yu Yi was calm and composed, he said softly: "I heard from Zhibei that my father and that woman have been here, and my grandfather alone may not be able to determine the position of the eldest son of the Houfu."

Mei Geng nodded, there was no news from the palace until now, the older and more cowardly the person above was, he was afraid of this and that all day long, he had to twist around the obvious facts, and then he had to fantasize about the so-called The truth, created out of nothing, asks for trouble.

Mei Geng remained silent, and put his hand on Chu Ce's belly and gently rubbed it. Lu Zhibei wanted to roll his eyes at the tender and considerate look. Is there anyone around here who is not shy at all?

I don't know when the sound of pattering rain came from outside again, and the cool wind knocked on the window eaves. After a long time, Mei Geng asked softly:

"If there is only one heir left in the Marquis Mansion of Yongding?"

Lu Zhibei and Yu Yi focused their eyes at the same time, and they could hear the cold killing intent from this casual sentence.

Mei Geng really wanted to kill Yu Lan.

Looking at the man with downcast eyes and gentle face, even Yu Yi couldn't help being startled, then he frowned and said, "I'm afraid it won't be easy."

In Yong'an City, even if the young master of Yongding Hou's Mansion was to be killed, it would definitely cause an uproar.

"Impossible." Mei Geng didn't change his face, "It's just that they can't find out who did it, not to mention the Yongding Hou Mansion. In recent years, there have been many people who disappeared or died inexplicably in Dachu. As long as there is no evidence, they will Nothing."

It's easy to kill someone without anyone noticing, but when the person's status is valuable, once he dies, he will be hunted down endlessly. If there are some clues left, the court will not offend him, and he may be hated by others. Overtly and secretly stumbling, many enemies that people can't swallow.

Chu Ce listened silently to what they said, and suddenly said softly: "If something happens to Yu Lan, his mother will not let it go, and cut the weeds to get rid of the roots."

Yu Yi: "..."

Lu Zhibei: "..."

The two looked at the young boy who was held in Mei Geng's arms, seemingly harmless and gentle, but in fact, the two of them were exactly the same!

"Really?" Mei Geng lowered his head with great interest, and asked with a soft smile, "Get rid of the Kang Corporation?"

Chu Ce leaned in his arms like a cat, raised his wrist and stroked the blue hair behind his ears, with a slight smile on his lips, "Kang's being an official in the court is a future trouble, and Yu Lan is their hope for prosperity and wealth. If this road is broken, and the Yu Kang family is blowing the wind around your pillow, I am afraid that Yongdinghou and the Kang family will bite you like mad dogs."

After two lifetimes of dealing with each other, Chu Ce naturally has an understanding of the Yongding Marquis Mansion. Yu Zhiren is a soft-headed and uninitiated person, so the so-called true love is not at all true. With such a mistress as the Kang family, it's hard not to give birth to a son and a half daughter.

Cowardly, useless, ridiculous.His so-called love will ruin the life of an innocent woman.

Mei Geng thought it was right, he hugged the man in his arms and nodded slightly, but he heard Chu Ce say again quietly: "If something happens to Yu Lan, there is no guarantee that the crazy woman will kill Yu Yi."

After saying that, Mei Geng's arms around him suddenly tightened.

Not only that, before Yu Lan fought back in her previous life, she couldn't bear to take Yu Yi's life.Otherwise, he would not have left Yu Yi in the mansion. If he returned to the Hou's mansion, he would be hard to guard against.

Seeing them saying a few words and deciding to take action against the Kang family, and even assassinate Yu Lan, Lu Zhibei was a little confused, holding his forehead and whispering: "No... this is not a trivial matter, don't you think about it anymore? Mei Geng, the one who embezzled the military pay It's not over yet."

"Oh yes." Mei Geng said "I just remembered", "Don't worry."

Lu Zhibei: "..."

I'm not very relieved.

-

The light rain continued for the whole night and did not stop the next day, and the news that His Highness the Fifth Highness and the Young Master of the Yongding Hou's Mansion were staying in the Xiping Palace also spread like wildfire.

Drops of water under the eaves strung together into threads. The man in the black robe stopped by the window lattice, watching the dripping rain, and secretly sighed that the couch in the study room was not as comfortable as the bedroom.

After a while, Butler Liu, who was dressed in common clothes, said outside: "My lord, this old slave is asking to see you."

"Come in." Mei Geng never turned around.

Steward Liu's real name is Liu Liang, he has no wife and no children all his life, he is a seemingly peaceful old man, with gray hair and unattractive appearance, he is the housekeeper of the palace on the surface, but in fact he is the head of the secret guards who train the palace's secret guards, Lian Meigeng Kung fu with Qin Gui was also taught by him.

Steward Liu entered the door with downcast eyes, and said with a serious look: "My lord, the old lady of the Yongding Houfu is already on her way back to Yong'an City, and she will arrive today."

"En." Mei Geng replied, the old lady is also a noble lady, she has always been at odds with the Yu Kang family, and thinking about going back to Yong'an this time, there will be troubles in the Hou's residence.

"Also." Butler Liu paused for a moment before saying in a deep voice, "The third son of Lin Shangshu's mansion died suddenly last night."

Mei Geng turned around suddenly, his eyebrows darkened, and he asked in a deep voice, "Lin Zichen?"

"Yes, it is said that it was...poisoned." Liu Butler's eyes also flashed a look of solemnity, "I was injured in the palace before, and the medicine I applied back was mixed with poison."

Mei Geng was slightly taken aback. In his previous life, Lin Zichen was drained of blood and died at home. Not long after, courtiers killed him in exactly the same way one after another. In the end, the murderer was not found. How has this life changed?

Although the way of death is different, Mei Geng still vaguely feels that he has something to do with Lin Shuyu. Although he has not filled in his name on the genealogy at this time, this year's palace examination will be inscribed on the gold list. Lin Lu is not Yu Zhiren. The pedantic and upright son of the Lin family is not suitable for officialdom , when this son caught his eye, he tried his best to cultivate it, but unfortunately he also went west within two years.

Because of this, Mei Geng felt that Lin Shuyu was even more terrifying. He might have gone through all these things without leaving any clues.

"Pay attention to Lin Fu."

Butler Liu responded, drooping his eyes, and said, "There is one more thing."

"Ok?"

Mei Geng didn't know why, but seeing Steward Liu's expression was delicate, he said slowly, "Eunuch Wuwei is here."

"Oh, take him to see His Highness the Fifth Highness." Mei Geng didn't care.

"Yes."

The corner of Liu Butler's mouth twitched, thinking of Wuwei's gritted teeth just now, he said silently, can't you see it, my lord?The five tastes of people can see that you have a little thought for His Highness the Fifth Highness, you are here to take the child away.
