Jiang Qing

The gentle spring breeze passed through the chilling field, blowing the red tassels on Mei Shao's black helmet. No one was injured in this confrontation, and the only red spot on his head was on the entire battlefield.

Ren Heyu squinted his eyes, looked at his slightly bleak back, recalling his blurred eyes and compromising words when he left.

"Let me think about it... Tonight, I will give Hou Ye an answer."

The Jinxi army followed Mei Shao back to the account. Mei Shao untied his armor, moved his head impatiently, stared at the sand table and found out two paths, and asked Chu Yan beside him, "Did you find it?"

"It is true that Lord Bai's past traces have been found in the two routes mentioned by the general. Lord Bai took the water route, and there are not many boats going to Wudu, so it is basically confirmed that it is him." Chu Yan glanced at Mei Shao and became more serious. With a deep expression on his face, he continued: "According to the calculation of the time, Mr. Bai left about shortly after the general set off."

Mei Shao slammed on the sand table hard, the fine sand splashed, and the model landscape flowed all over the table. He gritted his teeth and cursed: "He is really loyal! He is so loyal that he can't wait to put his life in it!"

Chu Yan watched Mei Shao's eyes bursting with anger, his hand holding the edge of the table was bursting with veins, his cruel and terrifying real thoughts were hidden under the thin anger in his eyes.

Mei Shao's heart was turbulent, and his emotions were turbulent. Ren Heyu's words passed through his mind over and over again like a torment, and he abandoned himself to think about the most extreme possibility. If Bai Bingchen chose to be Zhao Zhen all the time, what would he do? Woolen cloth?Just thinking about this possibility makes him want to kill with hatred. Is it because he shouldn't be a gentleman, as long as he tie that person by his side, no matter what method he uses, keep him firmly by his side , so that he can only see himself alone.

Mei Shao can't wait to swallow him alive right now, and let him fully integrate into her own flesh and blood. Will this kind of sense of worrying about gain and loss be a little less, and he will never have the opportunity to betray himself.

Maybe after relying on Ren Heyu and making his relationship with Bai Bingchen public, leaving no room for him, he will have no chance to back down. At that time...

Will Bai Bingchen hate himself?

Chu Yan looked at Mei Shao's red and bloodshot eyes, and couldn't help but said, "General..."

Mei Shao took a deep breath, closed her eyes, suppressed the turbulent emotions in her heart and the hostility in her eyes, and gradually calmed down.

"He...how does he look?" Mei Shao said in a low voice.

"Huh?" Chu Yan didn't understand, so he was stunned.

The distance from Pingdu to Wudu is not close, since Bai Bingchen ran out secretly, in order to avoid being discovered, he must be easy to drive.Although it is the warmest time in spring now, but the few days when he first left Pingdu, it was the coldest spring, and I don't know if he took good care of himself on the road.

Mei Shao was preoccupied and didn't say anything, but Chu Yan realized that he couldn't laugh or cry and said, "Since Mr. Bai is going away without telling anyone, he will not make it public. It is not easy to find people who have seen him along the way. How can people remember him?" Is your spirit in good shape, and have you lost weight?"

That's right, in their eyes and in the eyes of others, Bai Bingchen is just a passing traveler, so there is nothing worth paying attention to.But now that he is used to paying attention to Bai Bingchen's body, the poison in Bai Bingchen's body has always been a sharp sword hanging over his head, and he doesn't know when it will fall down and give him a fatal blow. "Give me the Gu." Mei Shao said after being silent for a while.

"Master?" Chu Yan's voice changed, and he clutched his chest tightly, showing no intention of giving in.

"Give it to me." Mei Shao said it again with an emphatic tone, staring straight at him without any room for discussion.

Chu Yan's lips trembled, and he slowly took out a small wooden box from his arms, struggled repeatedly, and finally handed it out.

"Is there really no other way?" Chu Yan's voice was trembling.

"He wants freedom, I'll give it all to him." Mei Shao stood up straight, her eyes sparkled slightly, forcing the corners of her eyes to turn red, revealing a sad expression.

Ren Heyu is right in saying that as long as Bai Bingchen is around, he will never confront Zhao Zhen in his life, but it is not because he dare not look at the choice Bai Bingchen made, but because he is reluctant to weigh the two. .Bai Bingchen wanted Haiyan, Heqing, and the monarch to have no worries, so he gave him Haiyan and Heqing, and the monarch had no worries.

"There's also the medicine that I asked you to prepare." Mei Shao let out a foul breath, and stretched out her hand to Chu Yan.

This time Chu Yan did not hesitate, took out a medicine bottle from his body, and said: "It will take at least ten days of continuous use before it will be effective."

"Okay." Mei Shao put away the medicine bottle and wooden box close to her body, patted Chu Yan on the shoulder, and said, "Before I come back, the army is stationed where it is and cannot be moved."

It was midnight, and Mei Shao led three or two entourages to wander outside Nanyang. Within half an hour, the news of the commander abandoning the army and fleeing spread throughout the barracks. Letter back to capital, please let me know.

-

In Nanyang Marquis Mansion, Ren Heyu and Mei were sitting opposite each other, most of the cold wine on the table had gone away.

Ren Heyu poured himself a glass of wine, respected him from a distance, and said with a smile, "I thought General Mei would join me with the army from Shanxi."

"Even if I bring the army, would the Marquis dare to let them enter the city?" Mei Shao squinted her cup, raised her eyebrows slightly, "What Marquis wants is nothing more than me, use inkstone to win me over, Use me to disturb Yanfang, that's why Lord Hou is willing to recruit me."

It is true that Wudu has been besieged by Ren Heyu for a long time, but Wudu's military resources are sufficient, and Bai Bingchen and Tong Shen are sitting in the town. Ren and Yu can't get any benefits for a while. After Shao and Bai Bingchen ventilated, the two places were clamped, and it was inconvenient for him to be in the middle, so he simply took advantage of the relationship between the two, first recruited Mei Shao to his camp, let him deal with Bai Bingchen, and benefited from it.

Ren Heyu's cheeks flushed slightly from drinking, he chuckled when he heard this, stretched out his hand and nodded out of thin air, and said with a smile: "Since General Mei knows what I'm thinking, why did he go into the cage by himself?"

"As Lord Hou said, I want too much, and it's obviously not enough now." Mei Shao paused, and said: "What's more, I know the methods of Lord Hou. Master Hou is going to attack, it is better for me to go personally, and the subordinates also have their own strengths."

Knowing that he was talking about Jiang Xiyue and Ling Che being forced to death by a chariot battle, Ren Heyu pretended to say, "I have always loved talents, even if General Mei didn't come, I wouldn't touch Master Bai." of."

Mei Shao also believed what he said, even if Ren Heyu captured Wu Du, he would not force Bai Bingchen to death for a while, because he still wanted to keep Bai Bingchen to deal with him.But according to Bai Bingchen's temperament, Mei Shao didn't dare to think about what he would do at that time.

The two chatted until midnight, they were both drunk, Mei Shao took advantage of the strength of the drink, scolded a few servants who came forward to help Ren Heyu, and helped him walk to the backyard.

The guards in Ren Heyu's courtyard were extremely strict. Mei Shao was stopped when he arrived at the door. He pretended to hold on to the wall to sober up. He watched a woman come out of the room and helped Ren Heyu in. He took another look and then followed. The boy who led the way walked to his residence.

Mei Shao came to Nanyang alone this time, and only brought two followers, and now she is sitting alone in the room, smelling slightly of alcohol, and her mind is very dull.

He lay on the bed, stared blankly at the roof for a while, and suddenly felt that the bed was empty and very cold.

Before I knew it, I fell asleep in a daze without even covering the bedding.

-

In the next few days, Mei Shao followed Nanyang Hou to get to know some of his subordinates, paid attention to Fei Yongchang, and found that he was quite frequent in and out of the inner courtyard and outer courtyard on weekdays. .

Ren Heyu kept a close eye on the inner courtyard, and Mei Shao never found a chance to strike. It was not until a night banquet that she got to meet the rumored Mrs. Zhonglan.She looked young and cheerful, sitting next to Ren Heyu, anyone wanted to say something about her beauty, but Mei Shao, who knew the secret, only felt that the more she looked at it, the more she felt that she was getting more and more intimidated. Fei Yongchang was watching there.

The eyes of the two met in the air, and in just a moment, they both moved away.

At the banquet, Mei Shao paid attention to the eating preferences of Mrs. Lan, found an excuse to leave the banquet, went to the small kitchen in the backyard, found the bird's nest that Lan Hui ate, took out the medicine bottle, and took out some Fine powder, stir well and cover again.

There was no one around, Mei Shao did everything neatly, turned around and walked towards the flower hall where the banquet was held, when he arrived at a corner, he saw Fei Yongchang was leaning on the pillar with his arms folded, looking at him with a half-smile.

"General Fei also came out to sober up?" Mei Shao greeted calmly, and walked back past him.

The maids serving dishes behind them walked out from the kitchen one by one, Mei Shao glanced at it out of the corner of her eye, leaned on the other side of the corridor consciously, stopped in her tracks, and avoided it.

He saw that the bird's nest was in the hands of one of the maids, and felt a little relieved. Just as he was about to leave, he heard Fei Yongchang's voice.

"Stop." Fei Yongchang shouted, a maid was stopped by him, and Mei Shao's steps stopped.

He watched Fei Yongchang lift the bird's nest and looked at it, a little smile appeared in his eyes, and he asked: "This is for Mrs. Hou Ye, it is very precious, only this one, don't spill it."

He spoke every word clearly, glanced at Mei Shao's indifferent expression meaningfully, and let the team of maids go.

As soon as the maids turned around the corridor to get out of the way, Mei Shao stepped up to follow.

"Master Mei." Fei Yongchang's voice sounded again, this time calling him, "Let's talk."

Mei Shao turned around, separated a corridor away, did not step forward, and said indifferently: "What does General Fei want to talk about?"

Ignoring his indifference, Fei Yongchang took the initiative to walk to his side, looked at the blackened eaves in the southeast corner and said, "Look, my lord, that's the house where Xie Huaide set himself on fire. The fire didn't go out until midnight. The eaves of the houses in a row were all scorched black, Master Hou was busy with the war, and he didn't have time to ask someone to repair it, so he stayed."

Mei Shao followed his words and looked there, in the majestic and quaint house, the scorched black place looked like an ugly scar, which could not be erased or cleaned, and it was firmly stuck in the Nanyang Marquis Mansion.

When he heard Xie Huaide's last words from Cheng Nian, Mei Shao's heart trembled until now. He couldn't imagine how a person who chose to burn himself because he couldn't bear the pain of being tortured would survive the burning flames. , scorching heart-biting.

Fei Yongchang looked at Mei Shao's pensive expression, and added a sentence aside, "The burn was very clean, nothing was left, and the Marquis couldn't identify anything at all. This is the Nanyang Marquis Mansion, hidden under the magnificent momentum. The number of dirt is also countless. Since you know it can eat people, why did Mrs. Mei take the risk and put medicine in Madam's cup?"

Mei Shao raised her eyebrows, and glanced at him indifferently, with a sneer from the corner of her mouth, "General Fei is really good at joking."

Fei Yongchang looked back seriously, looked into his eyes and said word by word: "The bird's nest has not yet arrived at the banquet, I can call down and order a doctor to examine it at any time. of."

The first half of the sentence still seemed to be a threat, but the second half of the sentence vaguely hinted at something, Mei Shao looked at him, silently did not answer.

"As long as Mrs. Mei thinks about it, Madam will have such a bird's nest every day in the future, and no one will find out."

"You are an 'old man' following Nanyang Hou." Mei Shao specially emphasized the word "old".

Fei Yongchang smiled, the scar on his face showed a ferocious side, but the emotion in his eyes was gentle, "I think Hou Ye told you about me, my wife is indeed my sister. When I was desperate at that time, it was Hou Ye who took me in, and then the Weihushan incident also made me avenge. Hou Ye showed me the kindness of knowing you, so I will never forget it. Hou Ye said at the beginning that he could cure me. For my sister's illness, the medicine used by Mrs. Lan is the one that Mrs. Lan is currently taking. After taking it, people's memory will be confused and they will forget everything in the past. Unfortunately, what my sister took is not the final prescription, so she is a little crazy Stupid bug."

"You know the identity of Lord Hou. If you want to use Madam Lan's hand to break the situation, I can pretend that I don't know anything. As long as you give me some medicine that you gave Madam Lan just now, I know that medicine can wake up memory. yes, right?"

"Your sister..." Mei Shao gave him a complicated look, "Do you really want her to remember everything in the past, so that she can clearly understand that she has become your wife?"

"I haven't touched her!" Fei Yongchang whispered, his whole body tangled and struggling, "I just can't help it, this city, the whole Hou Mansion, is abnormal! If you are not like them, you will be regarded as a different kind , Why did Mrs. Mei come in? Don’t you know why? I just want her to stop being such a fool for the rest of her life! I won’t make any other deals with you. You give me the medicine, and I will replace it You're hiding it, that's all."

Fei Yongchang's last words became venomous, revealing his gangster spirit, Mei Shao looked down at him slightly, and felt that his furious appearance was pitiful and pitiful.
