This is the advantage of making friends. If there is any "trouble", someone will inform you!
One ran up to her and said, "Li Heng, someone asked you what your name was just now."
Someone came in a hurry, "Li Heng, I heard someone in the front hall talking that the bad old man who came to cause trouble today has taken a liking to you!"
Anyway, considering his recent irritability, Liheng called Shenxiu directly: "If you don't pick me up, that Shenlan will ask me to be buried by Mei Jianxing!"
This time Shenxiu simply said, "Okay, let's go." This made Li Heng feel more comfortable.
Shenxiu knew that Li Heng's idea was definitely nonsense. No matter how crazy Shen Lan was, and no matter how aggressive the Mei family was, they would not dare to bury a living person. It's just that Shenxiu didn't expect that the fourth child would go to Mei's house to express condolences in person. Even though Mei Jianxing was an important veteran of his, he was still old and his grandson Mei Lin hadn't fully grown up yet. In addition, since Shenlan was attacked three years ago, even if there was something fishy in the incident, he was "scared" and did not dare to leave Dadu for a long time. So when he heard that Shenlan had come to Mandu, Shenxiu had decided to move her; but he still had to guard against his eldest brother, so Shenxiu made some plans.
I gave her a few more instructions, and she cooperated this time and agreed obediently.
…
At the same time, quietly, Mandu and Zhongdu were carrying out a very barbaric "ice expedition"!
"What are you doing!!"
Almost at the same time,
Mei Xin, Feng Yuan, and Dong Chen were all forcibly taken to the ice camp, forcibly armed, forcibly drilled, and forcibly sent to the border guard!
These three people are not in the same place, but they have all suffered a lot at the most difficult border crossing. Unfortunately, they are all military members, and they have to look after the future and destiny of the entire family behind the scenes. It is impossible to "disobey military orders" and leave their posts without permission!
Maybe they can all figure out the "reason" for their "end":
Regrettably, he was used as a spearman by the second master, thinking that he could use his strength to defeat the Mei family in one fell swoop! However, he was still too immature in the political arena. Shenyan must have reached "some kind of consensus" with Shenlan. When he suddenly stopped on the matter of "Mei Jian's funeral ceremony was overstepped", his chess piece also naturally Being abandoned and made cannon fodder...
Dongchen is confused and angry! Because they were all suddenly arrested separately, and then all communications were forcibly cut off. They were on duty at the inhospitable border and were deliberately "monitored", which was equivalent to being cut off from the outside world! So Dong Chen thought that he had been set up by Feng Yuan, because Dong Chen thought that after such a commotion, the Mei family would be severely damaged if it didn't fall. He was in such a situation now because Feng Yuan must be trying to "exclusively dominate". , let’s just borrow Shen Yan’s hand to completely “drive away” himself! ——Think about it, how angry Dongchen is! Seeing the dawn of victory approaching, he was pushed into the abyss by the person he trusted most...
Mei Xin will only become more angry! It was also a bad fate. Why did he and Merlin become brothers and have such hatred in this life? Mei Xin will always only think "I am unlucky. The first person who thinks of harming me like this" must be his eldest brother! The logical chain here is also very clear: before he was arrested, he did not know that "Li Xueshen's problem" had been solved long ago. He must have thought that his eldest brother was deceiving him in front of him. In fact, it must be in order to calm down the "grandfather's funeral ceremony" "This matter "without hesitation" sacrificed Li Heng! He was afraid that he would hinder him, so he took the initiative and used "military orders" to forcibly imprison himself in this harsh border...
So, it’s all what they think, but what is the reality?
"Fourth Master,"
On this day, Merlin really didn’t know anything! He was called to him by Shenlan.
Shenlan asked him to sit down very kindly, and she leaned back comfortably on the chair.
"What should I do for your grandfather's funeral? Don't worry."
When Merlin heard this, he stood up immediately after sitting down, "Fourth Master! - Thank you!" Merlin was of course excited. No matter how much trouble he made, the most important thing was for the old man to be buried in peace! However, it was a fact that his family was overstepping their control. Moreover, the cause of the trouble was backed by His Highness Shen Yan, and Merlin was also very worried. After all, he is still much more mature. When he heard Shen Lan say this with this expression, it was no surprise that Shen Lan must have directly approached Shen Yan and solved the problem from the root!
Shen Lan pressed her hands and asked him to sit down again, and she mentioned as expected, "My second brother and I communicated through the phone. The second brother is also a pity for the elderly and will not embarrass your grandfather's death." Merlin listened, He knew in his heart that Shen Yan could easily give in like this. He must have gained some benefits from Shen Lan. He once again sincerely thanked Shen Lan for his "love" to his grandfather, but what he heard next - Mei Lin sat down What a feeling it feels in my heart to be there!
"Don't worry, as for that Li Xueshen, he won't get good results either. The second brother will personally take care of it. He is a dignified and scholarly man, but he is disrespectful to his elders. How can he be brought up by a little girl..." Merlin actually felt a little confused when he heard this. Shocked. He hasn't explained these details to him yet, but look, what doesn't Shenlan know...
"However," Shenlan paused for a moment and looked at him with a seemingly "relaxed" look, "I heard that this little girl named Li Heng is really good at handwriting. She was accepted into your house because she followed her. Your grandfather is compiling "Sun Bin's Art of War" on wooden slips. I think you have many big things to do next and can't take care of this matter. Mei Xin can't continue this matter when she goes to strengthen the border defense. Why don't I take her away? , fulfill your grandfather’s last wish.”
Merlin was already looking at him in shock! For a moment, I didn't know what was more surprising - "Mei Xin?..." It seemed that the eldest brother was really misunderstood by his younger brother this time. All these "forced conquests of ice" were carried out secretly and very quickly, and Merlin couldn't even know about it...
The corners of Shenlan's lips were still curled up easily, and the "future" of the three young disciples was decided by him easily, but it was as easy and simple as "turning hands over and overturning clouds".
He also looked at Merlin without hesitation, his eyes still vaguely stern.
"You know it's not just my second brother who is leading this commotion. Mei Xin is too young and impulsive, and has constant conflicts with the juniors in Zhongdu, which is why they are waiting for this opportunity to bring down your Mei family. !”
He slowly breathed a sigh of relief, "It's better to ask Xiaoxin to go to the border to practice for a few more years, so that you can do great things in Mandu with peace of mind."
What can Merlin do!
The king's destiny is like a mountain,
From the ancestors of his Mei family to him, they have all worked hard for Shenlan's mother's family. All prosperity and even survival depend on him... A little Mei Xin, a little Li Heng, what do they mean... Merlin suddenly felt a burst of sadness out of nowhere. Perhaps, this was his destiny.
