When Meng Wei entered the door, Xie Bie drank the medicine.Although the low fever persisted, Prime Minister Xie did not entertain guests in the dormitory.In the study, there is no strange bitter taste of medicine soup, only the cold fragrance of pen and ink.Meng Wei breathed a sigh of relief at first, then felt sad, he raised his hand to support the thank you who was about to salute, and said: "Master, you don't need to be too polite."

"You are an imperial envoy, the etiquette cannot be revoked." Xie Bie pushed his hand away, with a calm expression, bowing down like a ceremony.Meng Wei looked at the white nape of his neck exposed under the ochre-coloured collar, which was as fine as silk.His heart fluttered slightly, and he regretted not leaving the vermilion seal on it with his lips and teeth.

But the favored minister of the new noble prince quickly collected his thoughts, smiled and cupped his hands eastward and said: "I am here to visit Prime Minister Xie under the order of His Royal Highness. Prime Minister Yin hopes to return to the court to serve as Zuobi, you must remember to teach him to cultivate himself."

Xie didn't even look at him, and bowed to the east, saying: "Thanks to His Highness for asking, the old minister is very apprehensive and grateful, dare not be wholehearted?"

It was the first time for Meng Wei to hear him call himself an old minister, and finally the smile on the corner of his mouth was squeezed back. After finishing this set of etiquette, he reached out to help him again: "Okay, sir, please sit down quickly. The one who came to the door a few days ago At that time, I heard that the master was too sick to get up, I wonder if he is better now?"

Xie Bie took a deep look at him and didn't answer his words.He was angry in his heart, but he couldn't ask the madman "Why can't you get up, don't you know?".If you say it out loud, you will really lose your face.

Meng Wei took a sip of tea and explained the purpose of his visit: "King Lu and King Huai did not enter the capital alone. Not to mention, the two guards together numbered six hundred. Junde These days over there are too lively."

"Six hundred kinsmen." Xie Bie closed his eyes, sighed a long time, and then smiled: "There are [-] forbidden troops in Beijing, and [-] kinsmen, is it worth your precautions?"

"Master, why do you have to lie to me?" Meng Wei put his hands behind his back and looked over calmly: "There are [-] Imperial Guards in the capital, but there is one soldier and one soldier, can His Royal Highness move it?"

Xie Bie looked at him for a while, then shook his head slowly, and said: "None. In the past, when the seven kings were fighting for the throne, each king supported his own army, and there were many factions in the army, so there was such a protracted turmoil that almost caused a catastrophe. The emperor After ascending the throne, the Imperial Army was built like an iron barrel. Even the most trusted and important as me, I must not get involved in it. The sixteen chiefs and deputy guards of the Imperial Army only obey the emperor's orders, even if there is a prince of Jianguo who passes on the jade seal of the country, they will be transferred to them. They don’t move. They only recognize the emperor’s will in person. If they act recklessly, they will be a national traitor, and the other [-] ministries should be punished together.”

Meng Wei hissed, took two steps forward, and said in a low voice: "But your majesty is like this now... why don't you ask them to face the saints, so that the prince can take over the imperial army in a legitimate way."

"It's precisely what His Majesty is like now that makes it impossible for them to face the saints." Xie Bie slightly leaned back, pinched the sandalwood incense beads on his wrist solemnly and said: "First, Your Majesty is unconscious at this time, They can say anything. If those people have evil intentions, they can regard the emperor's insane words as sacred, so as to act as a usurper. Besides..."

He seemed to be worried, but Meng Wei understood it, nodded, and said without hesitation: "Furthermore, according to Li Zhangyuan, His Majesty's condition is getting better day by day... What the master is worried about is that it is the student Meng Lang. .”

What he said was too straightforward.Xie Bie felt annoyed, and couldn't help scolding in a low voice: "It's you who conspired against me, you don't have to be afraid of the truth."

Meng Wei laughed out loud when he heard the words, and said calmly: "Master's words are clean, but it is clearly written in the law. The first rebellious family, follow the rebels, and the crown prince supervises the country. It is true that the students drafted it. It is the teacher who announced the edict."

Xie Bie almost cut off the bead string in his hand, and was too lazy to speak for a while.

But Meng Wei didn't take it seriously, thought about it carefully, and said: "However, the teacher has made great achievements in quite a few years, and His Highness is His Majesty's only beloved son. Maybe he can escape the investigation, but it is unknown. But no matter what, His Highness and His Highness Students now still have to rely on their teachers in many ways - the prince also mentioned today that he would select the officials of the Eastern Palace, and asked the students if anyone would recommend them. The students are young and poor, and most of the talents they know are from the teachers. I don't know how the teacher agrees?"

Xie Bie was not in a hurry to eat the bait delivered to his mouth, but looked at him seriously, as if he had never seen this young man before.Meng Wei blushed a little when he saw it, and called him softly: "Master...?"

"Meng Fansi," the familiar and long-lost address rang in his ears, Xie Bie leaned forward slightly, and asked him almost perplexed: "Do you really not know what it means to be afraid?"

Bachelor Xiaomeng flicked his sleeves casually, and smiled back: "Students have looked all over the history, and there is no one who was panicked and made a marquis."
