If you are no longer interested in the throne, what should you do to help him?
Meng Yue was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "Will I help you with the case?"
Seventh Prince: "..."
He rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Yes, it's just a case trial."
With his words, the slightly cold and hard atmosphere just now softened.
It was him who was stupid. He was actually on guard against this fool just now.
This idiot doesn't know anything!
"...How about you make it clear?" Meng Yue looked innocent. He knew that he had said the wrong thing.
However, based on his status, he can't do anything else besides helping the Seventh Prince with his case.
"You are a seventh-grade petty official, and now you can only be responsible for trying cases."
The seventh prince gave him another look.
"Uh... what about Brother Li?"
Meng Yue asked quickly.
"Li Qiao?" The seventh prince raised his eyebrows and said bluntly: "He is more powerful than you. He can do a lot. First of all, except for me, he should not get close to any prince. He will treat him as his pure minister and only stand by his father. The emperor’s side.”
"Besides, I don't want him to do anything dangerous. As long as he can withstand the frame-up of Third Brother and Fifth Brother."
"Just like now, you are helping me."
Meng Yue: "..."
He didn't understand.
What the Seventh Prince said was so profound.
Looking at the seventh prince's unusually handsome face under the candlelight, he pursed his lips.
The gap is huge.
For the first time, he felt that there was a huge barrier between him and the Seventh Prince.
He was a fool who came from the countryside and didn't know anything. He didn't have Brother Xu's family background or Brother Li's talents. He didn't even know what the seventh prince meant by his words.
He didn't know what the seventh prince was fighting for when he couldn't see it. He really couldn't do anything to help the seventh prince.
He didn't know what the seventh prince was planning, but the fight for the throne had always involved heads and blood.
If he, a farmer, got involved, he would be seeking death. He even said that he didn't even know how he died.
…
Want to give up?
No.
Can't give up.
At this moment, when he thought about being far away from the Seventh Prince in the future, he felt as if someone had grabbed his heart and made him unable to breathe.
He really likes the Seventh Prince!
Moreover, the seventh prince will protect him.
When the Seventh Prince saw his bad expression just now, he immediately asked with concern if someone was bullying him.
The Seventh Prince will protect him.
Just like this time Brother Xu was framed, the Seventh Prince used thunderous means to quickly interrogate and find out the truth.
The seventh prince is capable and willing to protect him.
He is not afraid of danger!
From what he saw every day, the Seventh Prince was upright, kind, cute, lively, and very powerful. He liked every aspect of the Seventh Prince.
He couldn't help the seventh prince with official matters, but he could do chores.
He is willing to be the man behind the Seventh Prince!
Thinking of this, he was filled with fighting spirit.
"Okay, I will convey your words to Brother Li verbatim."
After agreeing, he immediately asked: "Are you free these two days? How about we go have hot pot?"
"The weather has been warm recently, and wild vegetables have begun to appear. There are several new kinds of wild vegetables in the duck shop. They are all freshly dug from the fields. The small light green buds have small water droplets hanging on them. Just looking at them makes me happy. If you are in a good mood, it also tastes good when used to make hot pot."
"Besides, Brother Li has developed a new food during the Chinese New Year. He said it is called lunch meat. It tastes good. How about we go and try it?"
The Seventh Prince saw Meng Yue's change of mood from despair to excitement, and inexplicably, he breathed a sigh of relief.
If Meng Yue, a big fool from the countryside, felt that his secret plan was too dangerous and was afraid to shrink back, then he would understand.
After studying hard for more than ten years, Han Chuang finally passed the Jinshi examination and settled down in the capital. This was a definite promotion for a peasant boy.
He understood that Meng Yue wanted to be content with the status quo and was unwilling to get involved in his plans or ruin his family's peaceful life.
He was very understanding.
Unexpectedly, this idiot only felt frustrated and lost for a moment, and then asked him to go out for dinner.
After staring at Meng Yue's expectant and smiling face for a moment, he swallowed back the word "no time" that came to his lips.
To meet such a fool in his life was really not part of his plan.
But it’s also quite interesting.
"When exactly?" He clicked on the file on the table: "I'm very busy."
"How about the day after tomorrow? Brother Li and I will meet Brother Xu tomorrow."
When Meng Yue saw that the seventh prince did not refuse, she immediately grinned.
Look, his hard work paid off. He made an appointment ten times, but the seventh prince was able to agree five times!
"Then the day after tomorrow."
The seventh prince looked at his smile, suppressed the urge to raise the corners of his mouth, and quickly lowered his head.
"If there's nothing else, you can leave."
If he doesn't leave, he will laugh out loud!
He must be out of his mind. Seeing this idiot laughing, he actually wanted to laugh too. He must have been infected by this idiot's stupidity.
horrible.
"You haven't had dinner yet? Your health is the most important thing. What do you want to eat? I'll go buy it for you."
Meng Yuecai refused to leave.
If he leaves, the seventh prince will definitely devote himself to the file again and forget to eat.
I finally got some meat back, but I can't lose it anymore.
"I don't want to eat anything. Get out of here and don't stop me from reading the files." The seventh prince turned away with a cold face.
His joy just now was abnormal.
He had to think about it carefully.
But Meng Yue has long been immune to his sarcastic words: "How about the wonton shop we went to last time? Although it is light, it is also delicious. Separate the soup and small wontons, and then warm them with hot water. It will definitely be better when you bring them here. It’s so hot it burns your mouth.”
"Also, there is a snack shop next to his house. Although the taste is not as good as Brother Li's, the soft white mung bean cake is also outstanding. The outer skin is very thin and the inside is full of fillings. It is not too sweet. It doesn’t hurt to eat a few more.”
"Last time we went there, you were in a hurry and left early, so you didn't have time to taste it. You must try it today."
"..."
The seventh prince was silent and swallowed the word "go" on his lips.
Because of his limited financial resources, this idiot always ate relatively cheap food when he asked him out, but the food tasted quite good and was not inferior to the chef at his house.
He really wanted to eat the wontons and the soft mung bean cake now.
When Meng Yue saw that he remained silent, she immediately smiled and said, "Then I'll go buy it now, please wait a moment."
The seventh prince was still silent.
Seeing Meng Yue turn around and go out, carefully closing the door, he exhaled immediately, as if he had no bones in his body, found a comfortable position on the large chair, and then lazily leaned on the back of the chair, staring at the table. Standing in a daze at the dancing candlelight.
Recently, he actually didn't want to chop up this idiot.
Sometimes I am amused by this idiot.
However, he is taking a path that can only lead to success but never failure. Can he and this fool achieve results?
Let's talk about Meng Yue. Yesterday she happily ate wontons with the Seventh Prince and made an appointment to have hot pot tomorrow. Therefore, he was in a very good mood today.
When they arrived at Xu Ying's house, they saw that Li Qiao, Taozhu, Zhuang Wen and his wife were already there. He walked over with a smile and congratulated Xu Ying: "Congratulations, brother Xu, you will be a fifth-rank official from now on."
Yesterday, Xu Ying's promotion edict was officially issued. After the Lantern Festival, he will go to the Fanyin Department to work, then Xu Ying will be the boss of the Fanyin Department.
Now even if someone wants to frame him, it will be much more difficult than before.
Xu Ying was in a good mood, and he agreed with a smile. Although this promotion was earned by being imprisoned, and although he did not want to be promoted before, now that he is a fifth-rank official, he must be happy.
And he didn't suffer much in prison, but Meng Yue stayed with him in prison and couldn't sleep well every day.
During the few days he spent in jail, Meng Yue was the one who suffered the most.
"I won't say thank you anymore. Come on, sit down and drink. We won't go home until we get drunk today."
"No, no, no, it's better not to get drunk."
Meng Yue smiled and waved her hand to refuse.
It's so bad to be drunk, he will have to talk to Brother Li about business later.
Moreover, he is prone to headaches when he is drunk, and it takes two or three days to recover. He will have hot pot with the Seventh Prince tomorrow!
Meng Yue moved out the seventh prince, and Xu Ying immediately said: "Then you must accompany the seventh prince well. Thanks to him this time."
Li Qiao, who was next to him, couldn't help but laugh when he heard the word "accompany."
