The General and His Enemy Your Highness
Chapter 46
Su Jing's persuasion was fruitless, and in the end she remained silent. Mei Geng knew that his father died in the Northwest War, and he returned with serious injuries.
Before leaving, Su Jing just sighed: "Save yourself."
She didn't know that the road that Mei Geng wanted to take was extremely dangerous, and if she was not careful, she would never be able to turn around. Su Jing was complicated and couldn't figure out whether Mei Geng's decision was because of the Northwest War, or because of... Fifth Highness .
After Mei Geng left, Su Jing leaned back on the imperial concubine's couch and supported her forehead, and smiled wryly, the repeated blows made her a little numb.
It's fine for the son to fall in love with a man, but this man is also His Royal Highness, and the last thing she expected was that Mei Geng wanted to override the imperial power.
In ancient times, there were many powerful ministers, but either they left a bad reputation for thousands of years, or they died badly.
Ling Luo served a cup of warm tea and said softly: "Wang Taifei, the prince..."
"Sigh." Su Jing sighed, her bright eyes were stained with sadness, "If his father is still alive, based on what he said today, I'm afraid he will be expelled from the Mei family directly."
Ling Luo smiled wryly, what the prince is going to do is almost the same as rebellion, "Then what should we do? Is it possible to really let the prince?"
After another long period of silence, Su Jing's expression changed several times, and finally the corners of her lips blurred coldly, and she sneered: "Although I am a woman, I also know that this great country has long been strong at the outside, and the beam at the bottom is crooked. Vice-virtue, the honest and loyal officials who made good friends with their husbands also died. The exiles, look at Lin and Yongdinghou, you will know that you can't manage your own backyard behind closed doors. Even if the important ministers are like this, the dignitaries and superiors are below. The little official still doesn't know what kind of attitude it is."
She doesn't mix with the silt of the court, but she sees it more clearly when she is outside. She persuaded her husband to disarm and return to the farm early back then, why did she sacrifice her life for such an imperial court?
It didn't end up like this in the end.
Lingluo remained silent, and after a while smiled slightly and said: "If the prince can succeed, his name will last forever."
"Eternal infamy is almost the same." Su Jing gave her a white look, and Ling Luo retorted: "Why? Now there are still people paying homage to the old prince. Everyone knows what they did."
Su Jing was taken aback, and her eyes felt a little astringent.
Yes, the common people know it.
The Emperor Chu is so stupid, but those people are still willing to work hard for the great Chu River and Mountain, because what they want is not the so-called reward, or the re-use of the royal family.
Just because of the people.

When Mei Geng returned to Xuanhe Hall, it was nearly dusk, and the fine sunlight fell from the window sills. The young boy was lying on his side on the couch, sleeping unsteadily, his handsome eyebrows were furrowed, and his forehead was covered with a fine layer of thin sweat , porcelain white knuckles clutching the dark green brocade quilt tightly, as if caught in a nightmare.
Mei Geng sat on the side of the couch, squeezed the young man's slightly cool hand, and murmured in a low voice: "Did you have any dreams?"
No one responded, but Chu Ce calmed down a little, as if he had found support, and stretched his eyebrows.
Mei Geng's eyes became darker and darker, he yearned for the young man's body temperature at this moment, as gentle as jade.
The real him.
Difficult to let go.
Seeing Chu Ce's peaceful appearance, Mei Geng was a little distracted and quite disappointed.
Why did such a kind and gentle person completely change after ascending to the throne of God?Is it because there is darkness and filth in his heart, or does power really change people?
Mei Geng didn't know if he was really broken. From the time when he was young, all he cared about was the person in front of him, and there was no one else in these two lives.
Even the brothers around him didn't understand why he treated Chu Ce so differently, but Mei Geng knew in his heart that Chu Ce was worth it.
Living in a filthy and filthy palace since childhood, even the inner eunuchs will be tainted with a bit of ruthlessness. It is almost normal to suppress people who are humbler than themselves, but Chu Ce, who has been bullied, has always been calm, even though After getting his protection, he kept himself safe and never bullied others.
In the past, he also took the little guy to visit Yong'an City. Even though Yong'an is prosperous, there are people begging along the street, dressed in rags and poor.
Even if there is a bit of kindness, at most it will only cast a pitiful look, and then say with emotion: "There are too many poor people in the world, there is no end, and we can't help them."
But Chu Ce did not believe in evil. Chu Ce had just turned ten years old that year, and he said seriously: "If you can help one person, you will be able to help one person. In the future, when there are no poor people in Dachu, you will be truly strong."
For that little guy's words, Mei Geng paid his affection and his whole life.
At that time, Mei Geng seemed to see the light blooming in the filthiest and darkest corners of the world. That dazzling light was worthy of his lifelong pursuit.
"Why...?"
Mei Geng murmured with a bit of pain, and his heart hurt like a knife.
After Chu Ce came to the throne, he implemented new policies, but the floods in the Huaihe River became more and more frequent. The people had no income and did not know how to survive the winter. It used to be gentle, but anyone who disagreed with it in the court would be killed without mercy.
Even in the end, even Mrs. Mei was not spared.
Mei Gengzai looked at Chu Ce's face carefully, his eyes were filled with suppressed affection and a little bit of pain, and he slowly closed his eyes again, restraining all those complex emotions.
So what if it's a big rebellion? !
He, Mei Geng, was loyal back then, but he ended up like that. Now that he has the opportunity to do it again, he wants Da Chu to dominate all the countries, and even more so, he wants to imprison Chu Ce... by his side.
No matter what method is used, this little brat will never be given another chance to rise to a high position. Chu Ce just needs to be obediently by his side.
The sleeping boy frowned again, his long eyelashes trembled a few times, and slowly opened his eyes, the sleepy look in Mei Geng's eyes was extremely cute, the dazed little guy was defenseless, just staring at him blankly .
The dusk-like light reflected in his eyes, like the broken light on the surface of the river.
After staring at each other for a while, Mei Geng suddenly leaned down, and planted a devout kiss on the young man's forehead, like a dragonfly touching water, it was easy to leave with a light touch.
Facing such a small cub, Mei Geng naturally didn't dare to overstep. He raised his head after kissing him, and said with a soft smile, "How did you sleep?"
Chu Ce blushed, and wanted to pull back his hand to push the person away, only to realize that his hand was still being held. He gritted his teeth in embarrassment and anger, stared at him quietly, and said every word, "Deng Tuzi."
Mei Geng suddenly felt wronged, pretended to be frivolous, squeezed the soft palm she was holding, and sighed: "Didn't you come here to ask for shelter?"
Chu Ce pursed his lips and stopped talking. Seeing his aggrieved appearance, Mei Geng stopped teasing him. He straightened up and pulled Chu Ce up at the same time, straightening out the mess for him. Qingsi said softly: "Get up, and ask Butler Liu to bring the dinner later."
Mei Geng's intimacy has never exceeded the rules, but Chu Ce is quite puzzled. According to his speculation, it is good that Mei Geng doesn't hate him to the bone and will be a stranger since then. What's the matter with his... constant concern?
Just when he was about to embrace him, Mei Geng saw the young man's serious expression and said: "If you keep Mr. Lin in the mansion, I'm afraid there will be trouble again."
"..."
Don't think that just by changing the subject, he can't see the crimson color on the little guy's face.
"I have to see him." Mei Geng nodded thoughtfully. This eldest son is useless and incompetent, but he is also a rare honest minister. "Lin Shuyu of the Lin family has problems, but the Lin family has a deep foundation. Now the Lin family The third child is dead, and the only one left who can compete with this Lin Shuyu."
Chu Ce was stunned: "You want to use Lin Zichuan to deal with Lin Shuyu?"
Mei Geng nodded, but Chu Ce frowned and said, "I'm afraid it's difficult. Lin Zichuan acts impulsively and is pedantic. If there is a real fight, he will not be Lin Shuyu's opponent."
Are you still more optimistic about Lin Shuyu?
Mei Geng half-closed his eyes, showing a bit of danger and ruthlessness, and said gently and slowly: "But he is a direct descendant of the Lin family, and the Lin family will not abandon him if it is not a last resort. , is more difficult to control."
If Chu Ce still insisted on joining forces with Lin Shuyu, he wouldn't mind overturning the courtyard wall of the Lin residence today and killing the second young master directly.
Unexpectedly, Chu Ce just said indifferently: "This is a family matter of the Lin family, but Lin Zichuan's temperament is more suitable to be a teacher. If you want him to fight with Lin Shuyu, it is better to put your hope on Young Master Yu of the Yongding Hou's family." ,"
"It's good to have Lin Zichuan as a stumbling block for him." Mei Geng didn't intend to give up the young master of the Lin family, and asked, "Come and see with me?"
Chu Ce nodded slightly, and after a little rectification, he and Mei Geng went out.
Not far away, Qin Gui, who was clad in black with a sword in his arms, and Butler Liu, who was holding his hands in his hands, blocked Wuwei from left to right, and Wuwei's face turned green when they stopped him.
Why are the people in this palace so annoying? !
Butler Liu was calm and silent, with a satisfied smile on his lips. The young couple should not be disturbed if they want to go for a walk or something to cultivate their relationship.
Qin Gui deeply felt the same way, brothers finally fell in love with someone, so naturally they need to help a lot, so that no one will want him in the future.
Naturally, Mei Geng and Chu Ce also noticed the movement behind. Chu Ce sighed and glanced at Mei Geng: "Take care of them, they are too bullying Wuwei."
However, Mei Geng just raised his eyebrows slightly, and pretended to be helpless and sighed deeply: "One is my master, the other is my brother, and they are the only ones who care about me."
Chu Ce choked for a moment, then snorted softly: "You are just bullying me and Wuwei for not knowing martial arts."
Mei Geng couldn't deny that Wu Wei was a rare loyal servant, but he died under his hands to protect Chu Ce in his previous life, but he didn't understand how Chu Ce accepted such a loyal servant.
"The five flavors are loyal to you." Mei Geng said flatly.
"Yeah." Chu Ce lowered his eyes and said calmly: "He is the eunuch beside the mother, and also an old acquaintance of the mother."
Wuwei has been by his side since he was a child. At that time without Mei Geng's protection, the life of master and servant was really difficult. With Wuwei's cleverness, he could have found another good master, but he always stayed by his side.
In his previous life, Chu Ce didn't know until many years later that the five flavors were just for the promise he made to his mother back then.
Cher is a good baby (…)
Before leaving, Su Jing just sighed: "Save yourself."
She didn't know that the road that Mei Geng wanted to take was extremely dangerous, and if she was not careful, she would never be able to turn around. Su Jing was complicated and couldn't figure out whether Mei Geng's decision was because of the Northwest War, or because of... Fifth Highness .
