"What's there to admire? Aren't all the kings in the world the same!" Bai Meng snorted and continued to flip through the book. He picked up Song Jue's pen and drew a circle on the name of the person he thought was problematic. . "I believe that Wanyan Zongcheng and Yelvertu are more troubled than you now. You only need to think about how to find out the little bugs hiding in Xijing City. What they need to deal with is the challenge to their supreme kingship. If you want to keep it If they want to maintain their own power and prestige, they have to pay a more heavy price. But..."
"But what?" Song Jue rummaged around in his room and sighed, "It was a mistake, what a mistake, why didn't you even bring the stuttering person in?"
"The opponent they encountered is not easy. I'm afraid they will make a mistake this time." Bai Meng touched himself, took out a purse from his left cuff, and threw it into Song Jue's arms. "The soy milk cake made by my cook is not particularly sweet, and the taste is acceptable." Seeing Song Jue's satisfied face, Bai Meng smiled and said, "Is it delicious?"
"It's delicious. It's much better than the one made in the imperial kitchen. Send me a box later. I want to borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha. I will use them to honor my mother and make her happy." Song Jue stuffed a piece of soybean milk cake into his mouth, "Yes. I have been with him a few times, what do you think of Xiao Fengqi?"
"The heart is higher than the sky, and the life is thinner than paper." Bai Meng turned a page, "The Xiao family's downfall has become a foregone conclusion. No matter what kind of efforts he makes, there is no way to change it. If he still can't recognize this... The situation is that he still insists on going his own way, taking pride in being a member of the Xiao family, and constantly provoking the Yelu family and the families close to the Yelu family, and he is not far from death."
"The Xiao family... oh, to be honest, it's really a pity." After wrapping the remaining soy milk cake and putting it in his purse, Song Jue stuffed the purse and the purse into his sleeve pocket, took out the handkerchief and wiped his mouth. "The Empress Dowager Xiao was a powerful figure of the generation. Without her, the Liao Kingdom would not be in the situation it is today. If the children of the Xiao family were more ambitious, it would not be impossible for the King of Liao to change his surname to Xiao."
"Maybe the intelligence of the Xiao family and the luck of the Xiao family all fall on the Empress Dowager Xiao alone. Therefore, it is understandable that the children of the Xiao family are ineffective." Bai Meng re-transcribed the names of the people he had circled on a piece of paper. , handed it to Song Jue, "These are the things I think need to be paid attention to, especially the Minister of War, Gu Zecheng. Every time the brothers in the patrol camp came back from patrol, they said that he went into the brothel after leaving the Yamen and was drunk until before the curfew. Although it won’t be the same for ten years, the number of visits is still very frequent.” Bai Meng spread his hands, “Once a person has a weakness, it is easy to be exploited. So, you don’t have to suffer. If you don't show off your face today or tomorrow, sooner or later we will catch you in the pigtails. When the time comes..." Bai Meng made a motion of wiping his neck, "Kill them all, one hundred and one hundred."
"Is it that simple? I thought you had to torture them severely before you would give up!" Song Jue shook the paper in his hand, "Come on, I will ask Shadow to check it out carefully later, and ask your brothers to keep an eye on them too. , until all these foreigners leave Xijing City."
"I got it!" Bai Meng jumped down from the table and stretched, "Let's go, don't hold it in here, go out and get some fresh air!"
Song Jue nodded, and the two of them closed the door of the secret room and returned the same way.
"Hey, Xiao Jue!" Bai Meng emerged from the secret passage. When he looked up, he saw figures wandering back and forth outside the study. He reached out and patted Song Jue's arm and said in a low voice, "Look who is standing at the door. !”
"Hiss, didn't she leave just now?" Song Jue squinted and took a look, grabbing Bai Meng's arm, "Why is she back again? Still quietly."
"I've come back after such a long time, so I probably figured it out, so I came to talk to you!" Bai Meng asked Song Jue to let go of him, "I'll invite her in. If you have anything to say, you two can talk it over."
"Wait!" Song Jue grabbed Bai Meng's arm again, "Why are you going? Aren't you going to accompany me?"
"Brother, you two brothers and sisters are having a heart-to-heart talk. Why am I staying here as an outsider? I'll go back and get ready. I have something to do in the evening!" Bai Meng saw Song Jue's frightened expression and couldn't laugh or cry. "She is your sister. He's not the one who harmed you, okay? Are you so scared? "
"It's not that I'm afraid, I just feel that it's troublesome." Song Jue said in a low voice, "She started to fight, and I really can't handle her. I don't care, you can't leave, you must stay. At the critical moment, use your cold face to intimidate her. she."
"You can't handle her, and I can't do anything about it. Besides, I'm a foreign minister, so inappropriate. If word spreads back, it will have an impact on the princess's fate."
"What's the impact? It's not like you two are alone in the same room, but I am here too?" Song Jue grabbed Bai Meng's arm and refused to let go, "You just can't leave. We are brothers and we have to face each other together." Against the odds.”
"...Hey, okay, okay, I won't leave!" Bai Meng shook his head helplessly, "Can you let go of me now? I'll invite our princess in."
After getting a satisfactory answer, Song Jue released his paws and sat behind Long An. He watched with a smile as Bai Meng walked to the door of the study and invited Song Jinyu in who had been waiting for a long time.
"Your Highness, please!" Bai Meng turned aside to let Song Jinyu in, then turned around and closed the door of the study.
"Jin Yu has met the Imperial Brother!" Song Jinyu saluted Song Jue, nodded slightly towards Bai Meng who was already sitting down, and walked to sit down next to Song Jue, "Brother Imperial, I have something to ask of you."
"I know what you want to say, but don't you also know what the commander-in-chief and I mean?" Song Jue rubbed his head and said distressedly, "Why, do you still insist on having your own way despite our opposition?"
"My sister requested to go to Jiapingguan City with the Commander-in-Chief, not because I wanted to cause trouble, but because I wanted to do it but I had something on my mind. Therefore, the Imperial Brother and the Commander-in-Chief don't have to worry about any trouble, and I don't have to worry about my sister. I will stay in Jiapingguan City and not leave."
"What's on your mind?" Song Jue raised an eyebrow, "Is it related to Military Advisor Jin Jing? What's going on between the two of you? How come you can't forget him?"
"We are old acquaintances, but he no longer recognizes me." Song Jinyu smiled bitterly, "Whether he recognizes me or not, things that need to be settled still have to be settled. This is good for everyone. He can stop caring about me, and I There’s no need to worry about him anymore.”
"Old acquaintance? Did you know each other before entering the palace?" Seeing Song Jinyu lowering his head and saying nothing, Song Jue sighed, "Forget it, you don't want to say it, and I won't force you. But if you have to go, just ask me It's useless to ask the commander-in-chief's opinion and see if he is willing to take you there. If the commander-in-chief doesn't agree..." Song Jue spread his hands and said, "I can't help you either."
"Hey, didn't you just sternly say that you wanted to refuse? What's going on now?" Bai Meng glanced at Song Jue who threw the hot potato to him, "What about the principle? Have you fed the dog?"
"Xiao Baizi, don't be like this!" Song Jue looked at Bai Meng's eyes, "I'm really at my wits end. Look at her, she's almost crying! You also know that I'm most afraid of looking at girls. Cried."
"Commander..." Song Jinyu looked at Bai Meng with tears in his eyes, gritting his teeth to prevent the tears from flowing out.
"..." Seeing Song Jinyu like this, Bai Meng sighed silently. These people in the Song family were born to defeat him. He rolled his eyes at Song Jue and looked at Song Jinyu expressionlessly, "Your Highness, when the military advisor comes to Beijing to report on his duties, can you not settle things with him? Why do you have to choose this time to go to the border?"
"me……"
Seeing that Song Jinyu was really about to cry, Bai Meng sighed again, "Okay, I won't ask anymore. If His Highness has to go, then we must make a three-part agreement. With His Majesty as witness, once Your Highness violates the agreement, no matter where he goes, , I will send the princess back to the capital immediately. There is no room for negotiation on this point."
"Three chapters of agreement?" Song Jinyu wiped her tears, "Yes, no matter what conditions the commander-in-chief puts forward, Jinyu will agree!"
