When he was the inspector of Qingxi County, government affairs were not as heavy as they are now, so Mei Siyuan would often talk to Mei Yuanchen. Since taking office in Jinzhou, the father and son have never sat down and had a good chat.
"Chen'er, you have changed a lot in the past two years." Mei Siyuan said with a smile, "You have a gentle temper and don't like martial arts. Originally, your mother and I were worried that you would be wronged in the capital. I didn't expect that you could not only I have made so many good friends from my classmates and developed some powerful martial arts. Haha, now you are the one protecting us."
When Mei Siyuan left Prince Jia's Mansion, Mei Yuanchen was still an ignorant and powerless child. No one could have expected that he would change like he has today.
Every time he thinks of what his beloved son has done, Mei Siyuan feels a little relieved in his heart.
"I can't stay with my parents. My child doesn't miss you every day. Fortunately, I have Haitang, Chengxuan, and Yiyi to accompany me." Mei Yuanchen chuckled and replied, "My martial arts are all passed down by my master, but at the beginning of May After that, I never saw Master again, and I don’t know where he wandered."
Mei Siyuan thought, knowing that he was in trouble, Zhenwu Temple could send so many disciples to protect him, which showed that the child must be very favored in the master's sect, and he couldn't help but feel a little more grateful to Qingxuan, a stranger.
"For more than a year, Chengxuan and I have been getting along day and night. We are like brothers. Dad, you don't know how good he is with his children!" Mei Yuanchen smiled and talked about Xia Chengxuan, "Except for dad, mother, and Haitang, I think it's... Seunghyun treats me the best.”
Mei Siyuan nodded and sighed softly: "Chen'er, you also know that the prince is very kind to you. There should be friendship in life. If others treat us well, we should treat them double. Do you know that the Mansion of the Mandarin Prince is currently An unprecedented crisis?”
Hearing his father talk about this, Mei Yuanchen's face darkened, he lowered his head slightly, and replied softly: "Of course I know."
Although he was not involved in politics much, he could see clearly: Prince Yun's family was the dominant one, and Xia Muyan was about to ascend the throne; and his adopted mother made Chengxuan swear a poisonous oath, and he must kill his enemies within five years; everyone in the Prince's House of Jaw had decided that Xia Muyan He was the mastermind behind the murder of his adoptive father, and once he ascended the throne, Seung-hyun would have no hope of revenge.
And since Xia Muyan is so powerful, he may not be able to strike while the iron is hot and destroy the three palaces in one fell swoop, once and for all.
Thinking of this, Mei Yuanchen's mind was heavy and he felt that he couldn't even breathe easily.
After hearing Aizi's reply, Mei Siyuan didn't say anything more. He just sighed softly, reached out and patted his shoulder gently, and said warmly: "Chen'er, there are more than 400 people from Baiweitang and the family here. No one among these three hundred people can harm my parents. Now is the time when Prince Jia's palace is hiring people, so you can return to the capital with peace of mind! How can you and I tolerate the prince fighting alone in a dangerous situation?"
Seung Hyun...
Thinking of Xia Chengxuan's situation, Mei Yuanchen felt on pins and needles and wished he could fly to the capital immediately. However, now that he knew that Prince Yun's Mansion had sent people to harm his parents, he felt really uneasy.
The mind is in two places, and there is no way to separate yourself. The so-called "focus on one thing and lose the other" may be like this.
"Compared to me, Xia Muyan naturally values Prince Jaw's Palace more. Since he can send so many dead men to Jinzhou, he can also send more people to harm the prince. This person must have done everything carefully to fight for the throne. Consider. I even suspect that he sent people to Jinzhou to harm me. It is true that he wants to transfer Baiweitang and you out of the capital. Maybe the prince has fallen into his treacherous plan." Mei Siyuan frowned and said to Mei Yuan Dust Road.
Tune the tiger away from the mountain?
Making noises in the east and attacking in the west?
Build the plank road openly, but secretly visit the old warehouse?
Mei Yuanchen suddenly felt his ears suddenly buzzing, and murmured in his mouth: "Chengxuan, Yiyi..."
At this time, he also came to his senses, "Indeed, dad is right. The plan of Prince Yun's Mansion is to achieve supreme hegemony. It is really unjustifiable to send so many people to harm the Mei family. Could it be that Xia Muyan really used the method of 'Driving the Tiger Away from the Mountain'" count?"
"Chen'er, it's not too late. You can go back early tomorrow morning. Maybe you can help." Mei Siyuan said seriously.
... ...
After walking a hundred steps, Baili Si took Haitang and sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard.
"Your marriage to Chen'er was promised by the prince himself." Bai Lisi said to Haitang softly, "Although the prince is gone now, the prince's palace will definitely recognize the engagement. And you and Yiyi are sisters. Marrying Chen'er together will be a good companion."
Haitang lowered his head, pursed his lips, and fiddled with the ends of his hair with both hands. His face was filled with clouds, and he was too embarrassed to make any sound.
Bai Lisi gently held her hand and said in a low voice: "I never thought that Princess Chengyi would fall in love with Chen'er. You also know that Prince Jia's Mansion is really affectionate and righteous to the Mei family, and so do you." Don't let any resentment arise..."
"Madam, Haitang doesn't!" Hearing that Bai Lisi was worried that she was jealous, Haitang hurriedly replied, "Princess Chengyi treats the young master and me very well. I'm not grateful enough, so how can I feel unhappy?"
When she raised her head, she saw Bai Lisi looking at her with a smile. Knowing that Madam was deliberately irritating her, she couldn't help but laugh embarrassingly.
"Are you willing to talk now?" Bailisi chuckled, "Chen'er should be returning to the capital tomorrow, so just go with him."
... ...
"Dad, I don't want Haitang to go to the capital with me." Mei Yuanchen shook his head.
Mei Siyuan frowned, but did not ask. He knew his son better than his father, so he certainly knew that Mei Yuanchen didn't want Haitang to go into danger with him.
"Since I pity her and love her, I can't let her go back with me." Mei Yuanchen said softly, "In the capital, I have to focus on protecting Chengxuan. I really don't want anything to happen to Haitang."
In his opinion, the Yanyun Government Office at this time was safer than the Jaw Palace in the capital.
Here are the Yun family father and son, the Fu family brothers, and twenty senior brothers and nephews from Zhenwu Temple, plus fifty Shenshao camp, more than two hundred government soldiers and escorts from the Yamen, in addition to more than four hundred from Baiweitang. Man, when it comes to defense, the Yanyun Government Office is indeed no weaker than the Jaw Palace. With more than two hundred Xiangyang Black Cavalry, Mei Yuanchen believed that it would be impossible to rush into the mansion.
"Let Haitang make up her own mind about this matter," Mei Siyuan said in a deep voice.
Mei Yuanchen thought for a moment and softly said "Yeah."
... ...
When Jiu Qingqing returned to where the Nine Halls were staying, he saw a man dressed like himself standing in the hall with his back turned.
When he got closer, he recognized that he was Hen Hongchen. He couldn't help but asked curiously: "Hain Hongchen, why are you here?"
Hen Hongchen turned around and replied coldly: "The palace master is worried that you won't be able to suppress the situation, so he asked me to come over and take charge."
What she said was straightforward and direct, but it was a bit hurtful. However, she ranked second among the masters, while Jiu Wuwu ranked seventh.
Although Jiu Qingqing was unhappy, he didn't say anything, turned around and walked away.
