Back Off, Let Me Come

"I'll let the doctor Xinglin stay at your house for a while and take good care of you." The king's palms were warm and soft, with a faint and elegant fragrance. In contrast, Mei Meng's hands were dry, cold and stiff, as if they were constantly emitting cold air.

Not only that, Mei Jinghe also had a problem of being afraid of cold.

Although he was a scholar, he still wore thicker clothes than others, and he was not in the same season as others. The king's eyes were filled with sincere worry, and he regarded Mei Meng as a treasure: "You are my life."

Mei Meng said: "Don't worry, my lord. This is just a normal situation after the backlash. You will recover after a period of rest."

The king looked at Mei Meng's ten fingers with pity - the latter's nails were light blue, which was completely different from the healthy pink and white on weekdays: "If I had known this, I should not have let you go to the Northwest Gao Kingdom to try to complete the way of the scholar. Even if you don't have the way of the scholar, you are still my most capable right-hand man and loyal minister! My feelings for you have never changed because of these external factors."

He said with deep pain: "Why do you have to suffer so much?"

Mei Jinghe's eyes softened because of her words.

"Even so, this is what I have been seeking all my life. Not to mention just enduring the pain of backlash, even if they want to take my life, I will go without hesitation! Give it a try! If you don't give it a try, how do you know if this road won't work?"

When the king heard this, he sat up worriedly, grabbed Mei Meng's shoulders, and said with grievance: "Jinghe, are you not caring about me? Are you going to be away for a year or two like last time? You know that I don't trust anyone except you."

Mei Meng gently comforted the king.

Although she had no experience in childbirth, she had accompanied the king to give birth to the eldest and second princesses in succession over the years. She knew that pregnant women would be more fragile and sensitive than usual. The doctor in the medical department also said that it was best to follow the other party and let the pregnant woman stay in a comfortable mood.

However, she must complete the way of the scholar.

After the doctor finished taking the pulse, Mei Meng said goodbye.

"Jinghe..."

The king looked at the scenery outside the window with empty eyes, but his heart was struggling. After several struggles, he slowly exhaled.

"Why must it be perfect?"

"Many things in this world are incomplete."

Reason told her that it was foolish to be wary of Mei Meng.

Mei Meng was in the same group with her.

But Mei Meng's repeated attempts to perfect the way of the scholar also made her feel uneasy - which superior would not worry about Mei Meng's way of the scholar? As far as she knew, if the perfection ceremony failed once, the assessment content would be changed once, and the difficulty would be even higher. Jinghe told her the content of the last perfection ceremony without hiding anything, and locked Gaoguo as the target.

She had no objection to Mei Jinghe's arrangement, and was even moved - Jinghe's honesty just proved her loyalty to her! This time when she returned, she clearly felt that Jinghe had changed a little.

When she asked about the changed conditions of the perfect ceremony, Mei Meng refused to tell her, saying that it would hurt her vitality. But when she tried to test whether Mei Meng could give up the perfect ceremony, Mei Meng was determined to try again, even if it cost her life.

"Alas..."

The king sighed and shook his head.

"Jinghe, I just hope you won't let me down."

Mei Meng was a ray of light to her, and she was the one who pulled her out of the quagmire. For a long time, Mei Meng was so important to her that she would agree without hesitation if she asked for her life. There was no so-called secret between them.

Suddenly there was a secret, and she felt uneasy.

But at this time, there were still people who were blind and flattered.

Looking at the young man in front of her with delicate eyebrows and makeup covering up any skin flaws, the king had the idea of ​​teasing him: "Why do you look so aggrieved? Did someone make you angry?"

The man is the biological father of her child, and the king is more patient with him than with other male favorites. His tearful look is indeed pitiful. No wonder so many men like to keep beautiful concubines, and she likes it too. Men who are more beautiful than flowers surround you to flatter you and compete for your favor, and there is only one person in your heart and eyes...

Who doesn't want to have more such beauties?

The young man saw that the king was in a good mood, and he was relieved to show his weak and submissive side: "I can serve you by your side, who dares to let me be wronged? But when there is no one around, I think of the unborn third son in your belly, and I feel guilty..."

This male favorite has been serving the king for a long time, so naturally he has some ability to read people's expressions. Although the king is still young and can't tell the gender of the fetus, from his observation of the king, the king should prefer a male heir. If not, how could the two male favorites who were favored for a while fall out of favor?

It's because the seeds they provided were too poor.

The heirs born were all ordinary people.

The king didn't correct his name, but just gave him a cold look.

"Guilt? Why guilty?"

The male favorite knew what the king liked about him, and he would carefully choose the best angle every time he answered: "I am of humble origin, and my family is dwindling. When I think of becoming a burden to the third prince in the future and making him lose face, I feel guilty to death."

The king said: "Really? Just like that?"

Who in Qi State doesn't know that the fathers of the two princesses are unknown?

We only know their mothers, not their fathers!

Naturally, there is no such thing as the biological father dragging down the child.

This male favorite in front of him has always been knowledgeable and interesting, why did he make a mistake today? Doesn't he know that he hates male favorites in the backyard to touch her power the most? It’s not that she is stingy, but her experiences and lessons over the years have taught her that a canary is a canary!

If you want a canary to be a canary peacefully, don't try to make the canary a human being, and don't treat the canary as a human being! The canary can only be kept carefully as a pet. Only in this way will the other party be obedient and obedient. Once they get power, the other party will be restless and will not be willing to just be a canary. It may even bite the owner back!

Is this male favorite restless?

No, it shouldn't be that stupid.

The male favorite saw the coldness in the eyes of the king, and his heart trembled, fearing that explaining too slowly would cause misunderstanding. The woman in front of him not only controlled his life, but also controlled the lives of his family.

"Actually, this is what happened..."

The male favorite hesitated and said the real purpose.

Aren't the two young masters of the Cui family going to get engaged?

There was also a legitimate daughter of the right age in his clan, and she fell in love with the eldest son of the Cui family at first sight, which caused her to suffer from lovesickness. He was the only niece of his generation, and he really couldn't bear to see his child asking for something but not getting it. When this matter came to him, he could only ask the king for instructions. If the niece can marry the eldest son of the Cui family, given the Cui family tradition, she will definitely be the next mistress of the Cui family.

Even if his identity as the third son's biological father cannot be made public, he can still connect the Cui family with the royal family in private. His niece will definitely look after the future Third Young Master, which will be beneficial and harmless to the royal family.

The leader of the country: "..."

She didn't expect this to happen either.

I was still thinking about leaving the second son of the Cui family to my eldest daughter.

"Ms. Cui...I'm afraid she won't agree..."

Her ex-father-in-law and ex-mother-in-law valued family status the most, and the family behind her male favorite... said it was a family, but in fact it was not even considered a new rich. They just relied on their male favorite to serve her for a bit of face, and they were looking for something outside. Many benefits. Real wealthy families would not even bother to marry into such a family. His niece? Let’s not talk about Cui Zhishan. Cui Zhishan’s parents couldn’t pass the test.

The male favorite said: "Because of family status?"

The king rolled his eyes inwardly——

Isn't this nonsense?

If it weren't for his family background, Cui Hui wouldn't have been in trouble for many years.

"I heard that the last mistress of the Cui family was also from a commoner family. In order to look good, she arranged for a well-matched family background. It can be seen that as long as people like it, family background is not unreasonable. My niece is dignified in appearance and talented! Is there anyone in a wealthy family with better conditions than her right now? Either he is not the right age or his appearance and qualifications are not enough."

The male favorite said that he wanted to act coquettishly.

Not only did he not win approval, but he was slapped in the face.

This slap made him wake up instantly. He fell to the ground and confessed, sweating profusely on his forehead. He had no idea what made the other party angry.

The king's eyes were filled with murderous intent. Just when the boy's neck was getting cold and he thought that today would be the anniversary of his death next year, the king's calm voice came from above his head: "Let your niece come to the palace to see you."

The male favorite heard this and was overjoyed to thank him.

Cui Zhishan finished cleaning up the mess caused by his son and was about to return to his temporary accommodation. From a distance, he saw his eldest son stretching his neck and looking at the door of the house. He said dissatisfied: "You are not accompanying your mother, but you are standing here drinking from the northwest wind? Are you full?"

"Where does the northwest wind come from at this time of year?"

"That's because I haven't had enough to drink, so I need to eat some homemade food to fill my stomach!"

He doesn't hit his son easily, but his son really went above and beyond this time and gave the royal family a clue for no reason. Isn't this child afraid that someone will take the opportunity to have an attack and kill him one day? When the eldest son heard this, he felt the pain in his buttocks split into four.

"Father, mother is still here."

It's okay to be beaten yourself, but it's not okay to hurt your mother's heart.

"Where's your mother?"

"My mother took her second brother out to play."

"Just your mother and your second brother?"

The eldest son: "There is also a maid whom I don't know. My son has ordered someone to protect her secretly. She should be back before dark."

"A new maid?" Cui Zhishan thought of the maid picked up by Cui Hui yesterday. He always felt that the origin of this maid was not simple. He had already ordered someone to investigate. By now, the result should be in the study. He turned to tell his son, "This I'll leave it to you first. Go find your mother quickly and don't let anyone rush into her."

The eldest son is amnesty: "Thank you very much, father."

He couldn't wait to lead the war horse and ran away.

Cui Zhishan shook his head: "How can you get engaged with this character?"

He didn't intend to let the eldest son decide on life-long matters now. This time he agreed to allow the two elders to negotiate for the eldest son's marriage. This was just a delaying tactic. He also took the opportunity to take a closer look at the situation - Qi State has been expanding and growing in recent years, and the king and Mei Jing The forces that He secretly cultivated are also a force that cannot be underestimated. Cui is still an ally with them, but they have known each other for a long time.

We are allies today and enemies tomorrow.

Returning to the study, he used a special word spirit to remove his disguise.

Three lacquered secret letters suddenly appeared on the previously empty table. He picked up one of them at random. The content inside was very brief. It contained the true details of Shen Tang's vest, including his origin, age, place of origin, and the general outline of his previous life. experience.

“Southwest native…”

From the intelligence point of view, the scope of activities is only one county.

Where did she get that Northern accent?

The accent is thicker than Ke Wu, so it can be seen that the other person has lived in the Northland longer than Ke Wu. Either the intelligence is wrong, or there is a big problem with the person himself. Cui Zhishan couldn't put this kind of hidden danger next to Cui Hui: "Has it been switched?"

Or is it that someone has assumed his identity?

Cui Zhishan continued to look down.

The people who secretly investigated collected the saliva from the chopsticks used by Shen Tang today, and compared the traces and auras left by the body in the original living area, and basically determined that it was the same person. Cui Zhishan put down the news: "The body is the same, and it's hard to say what's inside." He picked up another secret report and opened it to read ten lines at a glance. This secret report was sent by the Southwest Branch. It records in detail the connections and resources that Mei Jinghe called on. "The completion ceremony of the way of scholars?" "Can the conditions of the ceremony be inferred from the clues?" "...What a pity." In Cui Zhishan's view, Mei Jinghe is not an enemy at the moment, so just send someone to keep an eye on him, and don't pay much attention to him. He picked up the last piece of information, which is related to the Northwest Branch. To be precise, it records in detail the whereabouts of the main club of the Northwest Branch. The three words "Qi Yuanliang" are written between the lines. Seeing that Qi Yuanliang was beaten up by He Shu in Shangnan County and had the misfortune of breaking an arm, Cui Zhishan was in a good mood. For the first time, he liked He Buzuo. Cui Zhishan destroyed the three pieces of intelligence by himself.

"Where is the lady now?"

This place is dangerous, Cui Zhishan arranged a confidant around Cui Hui to closely monitor the other party's movements to avoid being exploited. Unexpectedly, the confidant half-knelt and pleaded: "Parent, please forgive me!"

Cui Zhishan's face sank: "Where is the person?"

The confidant said: "I lost him."

This answer was like a bolt from the blue.

The person involved said-good job!

The culprit who helped to get rid of the spy trembled.

"Mother, we should go back..."

He begged his own mother in an almost pleading tone.

His mother was indifferent, and he turned to Shen Tang again.

"Sister Shen, can you help me and persuade my mother?" The little boy opened his big watery eyes, his eyes were full of light and longing, and he carefully pulled Shen Tang's sleeve.

Shen Tang said, "Didn't he just come out?"

The young boy drooped his eyelids: "Sister doesn't understand father. He looks bright and cheerful, but he is actually very jealous."

Cui Hui seemed to be carefully selecting cosmetics, but in fact, she was paying attention to her own son who was carefully sticking to Shen Tang with her peripheral vision. Her heart was like a typhoon passing through, and thousands of war horses were galloping - she and Shen Jun came out to find clues about Miao Ne, and the youngest son had to come.

Come if you want, I don't know what's wrong with his brain.

He got closer and closer to Shen Jun along the way.

He also asked her about Shen Jun's age and ancestral home.

She couldn't help but hold her forehead and whispered to her son.

[Didn't you say in the morning that you like the girl who can step on the colorful clouds, pass five levels and kill six generals, and snatch you from Cui's. ]

With a turn of his head, his preference changed? ? ?

The son whispered: [Mother, my son saw it. ]

[What did you see? ]

[She stepped on the clouds and passed five levels and killed six generals! 】
