The person who came was General Jinghuai of Lu Guang, the vassal king. His surname was Meng and his first name was Pingshan.

When Liu Xi rebelled and proclaimed himself emperor, Lu Guang was the number one general who broke through the city and entered Chang'an.After Liu Xi proclaimed himself emperor, he named Lu Guang the King of Guangyang and asked him to guard Minguan with troops.This Meng Pingshan got acquainted with Li Jianbi when he was still the leader of the Central Committee, and he has not seen him for four years since he went to Minguan with King Guangyang.

It stands to reason that the two should have broken off their relationship long ago.There are three taboos in the Temple of the Son of Heaven: one taboos courtiers to form cliques in the opposition;Liu Xi was suspicious by nature, he himself started his family by rebelling, and these vassal kings all had military power, so he was naturally always on guard.

Meng Pingshan, as a first-rank general of the King of Guangyang, has a great reputation, so if he entered the capital without permission, if someone with a heart found out, it would be a crime of beheading for treason.

And there is an order in the Daxuan: court officials are not allowed to have personal relationships with generals and ministers outside the pass.

Li Jianbi has been an official for seven years, and he is famous for his frankness and integrity.He acted swiftly and resolutely, weeding weeds without leaving roots, a gentleman is like a bamboo, and he does not grow branches outside the knot. There are so many people in the court staring at him, but he has never caught anything.

He only had Meng Pingshan as his handle.The cover is the same as before, and the friendship is so deep that he can't break his personal relationship with this person.And this person is a general outside the pass, if Liang Yenian and his group find out about this, it will be a catastrophe.

For four years, Li Jianbi and Meng Pingshan have been exchanging letters.The capital is more than three thousand miles away from Minguan, and it takes five people to send a letter to Meng Pingshan. The messengers are all very reliable and will not leak a little bit of information.

But the old saying goes well, if you want people to not know, you have to do nothing, Li Jianbi has a foreknowledge.It's just that I don't cry when I don't see the coffin, I've been lucky.

So when Meng Pingshan appeared in front of him and said to him, "I received a letter, I know you are seriously ill." His face turned pale.

He never wrote to Meng Pingshan about his illness. Who sent the letter Meng Pingshan received to him?If it is false, it means that someone already knows about the exchange of letters between him and Meng Pingshan.

Perhaps it was a conspiracy that Meng Pingshan came here.

Li Jianbi closed her eyes, almost limp in Meng Pingshan's arms.Meng Pingshan also thought that it was his illness, so he threw Li Jianbi into his arms, stepped into the room and put him gently on the bed.

Li Jianbi woke up, waved away the maid in the dormitory, sat up and forced himself to calm down for a while.Meng Pingshan poured water for him at the table, then sat down on his bed, took a closer look at him and said, "I saw in your letter that you said you were sick, so I thought you were going to die. Looking at it now, it's not too bad." What? It caused me to be nervous all the way in vain, and three horses ran to death.”

Li Jianbi looked at Meng Pingshan and asked, "When did you receive the letter?" Meng Pingshan said, "Ten days ago." Li Jianbi tightened his teacup. He hadn't written to him for more than a month. The letter Meng Pingshan received Definitely not writing it myself.

"What's wrong with you, you finally saw me, why didn't you speak?" Ping Shan looked down and said, why are your hands shaking so much?Let me hold it for you.He said that he reached out to take the porcelain cup for him, but Li Jianbi pushed him away when he didn't want to.

"You really don't know the seriousness. You know that entering Beijing with your private parts is a serious crime of beheading." He put the water glass aside and said, "You can't stay long, go back now!"

"I know I can't see the light, so I waited until night. I didn't plan to stay here, I just wanted to take a look at you." Meng Pingshan said, "But isn't it too ruthless for you to drive people away like this?"

"Ruthless? Do you know that if you are seen by others, you will kill me!" Li Jianbi said, "If you are really good for me, why didn't you ask the emperor for an edict first, so that you can go to Beijing without knowing it?" I thought you and I were plotting something big! You don’t care about your own life, so don’t you care about mine? Don’t you know what taboos His Majesty has? Go away! Get out of the city now!”

"I see that you have been cautious and cautious in recent years, and you have become more and more unreasonable. Are there so many people who want to harm you in this court? I want to see who has such guts. What are you afraid of? Without anyone noticing it!" Meng Pingshan said, "I told the king that I went hunting outside the pass."

Li Jianbi said: "Okay, okay, now that you see me, are you relieved? Go back!" He stood up, grabbed Meng Pingshan's arm and walked out.

Unexpectedly, a servant girl came in from the outside at this time and said: "My lord, Mr. Fan is here."

Li Jianbi was taken aback. "What is he doing here at this point? Tell him to go!" He had just finished playing when he heard someone outside the door shouting, "Master Li, I'm here to see you!" Ann's voice.

This Fan An ran to Li's mansion every day or two, and the guards at the gate of the triple mansion outside didn't stop him, and didn't stop until he was outside the bedroom door.Meng Pingshan asked: "Who is Fan An? Why is he running into your house in the middle of the night?"

Li Jianbi didn't have the heart to explain to him, so he just said to the maid: "Go outside and stop him! Just say that I don't see any guests!" He turned to Meng Pingshan and said, "Hide for a while! When he leaves, leave the city!" Hearing the words, Meng Pingshan looked around and asked, "Where to hide?"

Li Jianbi said: "Under the bed, under the bed is the most hidden place." Meng Pingshan glanced at his bed, he was a little embarrassed, he was a man of seven feet, he had never bent his knees before, how could he be told to put down his body and go under Li Jianbi's bed?He hurriedly said: "I think I'd better jump out of the window!" As he said that, he walked towards the east window, Li Jianbi grabbed him, and reprimanded him in a low voice: "Idiot! As soon as you land on the east window, let the door open!" Fan Pingqiu outside saw it!"

At this time, Fan An's voice came in again: "Master Li? Are you in there?! Why do you say you don't want to see me? What happened?"

Li Jianbi scolded all the eight generations of Fan An's ancestors in his heart. He grabbed Meng Pingshan and walked around the room. Those white gauzes, there was a loud bang on the bedroom door, and Fan An unexpectedly barged in!

Li Jianbi was taken aback by him, he turned his head and glared at Fan An, then went up and slapped him. "You are so brave! How dare you even break into the door of my Li residence?!" He said, "Didn't you hear me say that I don't want to see you!"

Fan An touched his face, and looked at Li Jianbi in shock, with grievances in his eyes, as if he was about to cry. "Isn't it fine this morning..." he said, "Why don't you want to see me? I heard your maid said so, and thought..."

"Why do you think I suddenly died suddenly, and I want to hide it from you?" Li Jianbi said, "Don't worry, I will die someday, and you will be the first to know!"

"What's wrong with you, suddenly you are so angry?" He glanced at the maid outside the door, and suddenly said, "Is it because you didn't serve well! Did you make your lord angry?!"

The maidservants standing outside the door slightly raised their heads upon hearing this, staring at Fan An with deep resentment in their eyes.

Li Jianbi walked to the table by the window and sat down, calmed down, and said, "If you have anything to say, tell me quickly." Fan An stepped forward, opened the rice lid in his hand, took out a bowl of soup, and said, "Didn't I tell you before I left that I would come to deliver chicken soup? I've cooked it. The soup is still hot. You can drink it."

Li Jianbi frowned when he remembered what he said. "I have a lot of chicken soup in my house, so I don't need you to bring it." He said, "The ginseng and bird's nests are all piled up there! What chicken soup do I have?"

Fan Anan didn't know what he did wrong, he stood awkwardly for a while, and slowly picked up the bowl of soup back, he covered the lunch box, but seemed unwilling, he couldn't help but softly said: "But I boiled it myself ..."

This submissive voice really makes people feel soft, Li Jianbi looked up at him, and sighed softly: Fan An has been an official for less than a year, and the number of people in the court who want to curry favor with him cannot be counted, even Liang Yenian can't catch up with him To curry favor with him, how could I ever get myself to scold him like this.

He calmed down, "I'm sorry, I lost my temper." He said, "Give me the soup, I'll drink it."

Fan An was overjoyed when he heard the words, and took out the soup again and again. He opened the porcelain cover for Li Jianbi, handed him a spoon, and said with a smile, "Drink slowly, and I'll leave when I'm done." Standing beside Li Jianbi with a happy face, he didn't take the beating and scolding just now to heart.

The chicken soup was bright yellow in color, but not greasy. It was decorated with a few green leaves and had a strong fragrance.Li Jianbi drank, thinking that this person is quite skilled, did he practice cooking during the years of exile in Qi Shan?No wonder he was so glib and changed himself.

Fan Jingjing watched, the sky outside the window became darker and darker, and the night wind blew a page off the scroll on the desk in the distance. "It's windy, and it seems to be raining at night. Be careful not to catch a cold." Fan An walked to the window of the desk, leaned over and closed the window, walked back and picked up the few pages of paper that fell on the ground. stand up.

He was bent over to tidy up, when suddenly he glanced at the white gauze curtain in front of the screen, and the wind blew the curtain, and he saw half of a black boot in this glance.Huh?Are you hiding from someone?Fan An squatted behind Li Jianbi, this thought flashed through his mind, he got up and thought for a while, and was suddenly stunned!

There is a man hiding in Li Jianbi's house!

He gasped and subconsciously covered his mouth, no wonder he didn't want to see me just now!It turned out that there was a man in the room at that time! In the middle of the night, why was there a man in his dormitory, and he couldn't see the light, so he wanted to hide? !

Fan An stood there for a while, not daring to breathe. He walked back to Li Jianbi, and glanced at the white tent from the corner of his eye. Under the heavy veils, he could vaguely see the shadow of a tall man.

"I'm done drinking." Li Jianbi said suddenly.

"Ah... have you finished drinking?" Fan An hurried forward, pretending he didn't see anything, he quickly cleaned up the bowls and spoons, and said, "It's getting late, I don't want to disturb you, my lord, please rest quickly Let's go." He said his farewell, didn't make any nostalgia, and went out as if escaping.

"That's not it, that's not the case. Mr. Li is a gentleman like a chrysanthemum. How could such a thing happen? I must be thinking too much." Fan An murmured, walked quickly to the carriage outside the mansion, and gasped for a while while holding the horse fence. tone.

Only then did he notice that there was a tall horse riding beside the stone lion.

When the groom saw him coming back, he said that the soup had been delivered?Get in the car, my lord, let's go home.Fan An was stunned for a while, and after agreeing, he climbed into the carriage, put down the bamboo curtain, and said, "Let's go."

The carriage drove away from the entrance of Li's Mansion, and walked for a mile along Chang'an Street. Fan An opened the rear window of the carriage and took a look, and suddenly said, "Stop!" He sternly pulled the reins of the carriage.Fan An jumped out of the carriage and said to the coachman, "Go home first, I'll be right back." He didn't wait for the groom to say anything, and walked back on his way.

He returned to Li's mansion, but he didn't go to the door, he just stood in the dark at the far alley.

Sure enough, within a short while, the door of the Li Mansion opened a crack, and someone came out from inside.Fan Anding stared at him, and found that the man was Li Jianbi, and beside him was a tall man with handsome facial features that could be vaguely seen in the moonlight.

That Li Jianbi was wearing a light-colored white robe, holding the man's arm and approaching the horse, as if signaling the man to go away.While speaking, he looked around outside the mansion, and his eyes were gliding over the corner of the alley where Fan An was.Fan An subconsciously hid back, but fortunately his place was extremely dark, and Li Jianbi couldn't see him.

The man led the horse, Li Jianbi said something, turned around and wanted to go back to the house, but the man suddenly grabbed Li Jianbi's arm, pulled him into his arms and hugged him tightly.

Seeing this scene, Fan An felt a surge of energy and blood, causing him to stagger and almost fall!

This Li Jianbi...he actually had an affair with another man without telling him!He was really blind to think that he was as clear as a cold spring and as proud as a pine tree!

Fan An scratched his heart and supported the wall, and couldn't help but knocked his head on the corner of the wall: Li Jianbi, Li Jibi, you really lied to me, my heart is going to be broken into pieces!
