Wandering the Heavens

"Xie Yu was frightened into amnesia? Did the imperial physician say so?" Mei Changsu was no longer calm.

Of the two people who were directly involved in the Chiyan Army's treason, Xia Jiang died tragically, and now Xie Yu has been frightened to the point of insanity, which makes it even more difficult to find out the truth of the case.

"It was the imperial physician who diagnosed him. It couldn't be false. When he was taking his pulse, he happened to have a seizure and said he saw a ghost." Xiao Jingyan shook his head when talking about Xie Yu's condition.

"It seems that the military force supporting the prince has been weakened." Mei Changsu brought the topic back to the fight for the throne.

"So what? He is still the crown prince. Apart from the loss of Duke Qing, Prince Yu is completely unscathed in other aspects." Xiao Jingyan was somewhat dissatisfied with the current progress of the fight for the throne.

"Your Majesty, do you know why His Majesty gave you the command of the patrol camp? After all, you had a record of launching a mutiny last year." Mei Changsu asked, staring into Xiao Jingyan's eyes.

The candlelight flickered, making Mei Changsu, who had become gloomy due to the removal of the fire and cold poison, become brighter and darker, and Xiao Jingyan found it a little creepy.

“I don’t know.” Xiao Jingyan shook his head.

"Because the power of the Crown Prince and Prince Yu was equal before, and now the Crown Prince is at a disadvantage, Your Majesty has to support a prince to distract Prince Yu so that the fight for the throne can continue. And Prince Jing has become the only choice." Mei Changsu's words always hurt Xiao Jingyan's heart.

“Oh, you guys think too much.” Xiao Jingyan felt extremely chilled.

"This is a danger, but also an opportunity!" Mei Changsu pointed out the current crisis and opportunity.

It is certainly dangerous to be exposed to the sight of the Crown Prince and Prince Yu in advance, but the Crown Prince is now half-crippled. It is precisely because of Prince Yu's strength that the Emperor will never give up the Crown Prince and Prince Jing. As long as it is handled properly, the current situation can be reversed and Prince Jing can make a further step.

Mei Changsu and Xiao Jingyan discussed for a long time, and Xiao Jingyan left only when he was about to go to court.

The people of Jiangzuo League became busy. They searched all over Jinling for the "old man" that Xiao Jingrui mentioned. In short, they were looking for someone who looked like he had martial arts skills, but whose behavior was inconsistent with his identity.

They were not government officials, so in order to avoid being exposed, they acted very cautiously, but they gained nothing after many days.

At this moment at the Ten-Li Pavilion, Mu Nihuang looked at her brother in front of her with some reluctance.

"Sister, don't worry! My brother will study hard in the Southern Territory, not to mention Jingrui and Yujin." Mu Qing looked at the people who followed her back to the Southern Territory and comforted Mu Nihuang.

"Brat, I'm here for you!" Xia Dong reminded him dissatisfiedly.

"Sister Xia Dong, you are the military supervisor, we can't afford to offend you." Yan Yujin joked as if to dilute the sadness of parting.

"I will deal with you three when we reach the southern border. Don't worry, Nihuang! I will keep an eye on them. You just wait in Jinling, and I will give you a brother who will stand tall and proud when the time comes." Xia Dong raised the whip in his hand.

"Thank you for your help, Lord Xia Dong." Mu Nihuang was not polite.

"Sister, I am your biological brother!" Mu Qing's face suddenly turned bitter.

……

After seeing her brother off, Mu Nihuang slowly returned to the city with a few soldiers, but met Mei Changsu halfway. The carriage was parked on the side of the road, and Fei Liu was supporting him and standing in the middle of the official road. It seemed that he was waiting for Mu Nihuang.

"Meet Princess Nihuang."

"It's Mr. Su! Are you going to leave Jinling today?" Mu Nihuang wanted to talk to death as soon as she opened her mouth.

"My princess, you have misunderstood. I have wanted to visit Prince Mu's mansion for a long time, but when I thought about my inappropriate status, I had no choice but to resort to this last resort. Please don't blame me, my princess." Mei Changsu spoke humbly but his words were very rude.

Ever since Mei Changsu came to inquire about Xia Dong's whereabouts last time and parted unhappily, the two have not met or spoken to each other since then. Of course, this is related to the fact that the Mu siblings rarely go out, and they will only go out if there is a royal gathering that requires them to participate.

"Mr. Su can even find out the whereabouts of court officials. He is worthy of being the leader of the Jiangzuo League." Mu Nihuang said with a smile.

"I have no choice but to resort to this last resort." Mei Changsu didn't expect Mu Nihuang to care so much.

"This princess may not blame you, but this will not happen again. Tell me why you want to see me?" Mu Nihuang had no intention of getting off the horse from beginning to end.

"Princess, there are too many people here and they have too many eyes..." Mei Changsu hinted as he looked at the cavalry behind Mu Nihuang.

"Mr. Su, just speak up. If they can't be trusted, then there is no one in this world that I can trust." Mu Nihuang had no intention of covering up for him.

"Is it true that the State of Chu has sent troops to invade our border?" Mei Changsu didn't care about anything else and asked, staring into Mu Nihuang's eyes.

"As to whether Chu State is attacking Daliang, the Jiangzuo League is very powerful and can find out by themselves. If that doesn't work, they can go to the Langya Pavilion. Besides, it is inappropriate for Mr. Su to ask about military and national affairs!" After Mu Nihuang finished speaking, she rode her horse around Mei Changsu and Fei Liu and left.

Mei Changsu looked at the receding backs of Mu Nihuang and her group and coughed for a while.

"Fei Liu, will people eventually become strangers?"

"I don't understand, go back!" Fei Liu shook his head.

"It's good not to understand." Mei Changsu finally realized the reality that Mu Nihuang had become a stranger.

But when did this change begin? If he revealed his identity to her, would it be better? Mei Changsu thought a lot and was in great pain, which made him feel that the journey from the city back to the Su residence was extremely long.

The masters who challenged the mysterious man finally came to Jinling, which brought great pressure to Xiao Jingyan and Xia Chun.

As the saying goes, Confucians disrupt laws with their writings, while knights violate laws with their force. They may not have the courage to challenge the mysterious master, but they have the ability to parade through the city in a country's capital and show off their power. For them, this is a carnival of chivalrous knights. The mysterious man is not important, what is important is that they have existed in this prosperous capital.

As for the current situation, the victim Zhuo Dingfeng has been disabled. Zhuo Qingyao left Jinling with his parents and wife and returned to Tianquan Villa and announced his retirement from the world. He also gave up the competition for ranking on the Langya List and no longer challenged masters, nor did he accept challenges from masters.

The only two people on the master list who were in Jinling were Meng Zhi and Mu Nihuang, but these monsters were not coming for them, and the emperor would not let them duel with them because the court had to save face. Mei Changsu had no choice but to let Zhen Ping enter Jinling to drive them away.

Mei Changsu and Lin Chen were both in agony. They had personally fanned the flames and created momentum, but instead of forcing the mysterious man out, they got themselves into trouble. They had to work very hard to appease these people. This made them doubt whether this mysterious man actually existed.

Xiao Jingyan also became ruthless and arrested all the masters who were causing trouble in Jinling. He also killed several scums who committed crimes and resisted in the streets before he calmed down the disturbance.

This also made Xiao Xuan have a better impression of him, but it caused dissatisfaction among the prince, because the patrol camp was originally in charge of Xie Yu, and if it was not handed over, the credit for pacifying Jinling would not go to Prince Jing.

So this is the current political situation.

Prince's party (gritting teeth): How dare you meddle in the affairs of the imperial court?

Prince Jing: How can a group of insects govern a country? We have to rely on people like me to have hope.

Prince Yu's Party: Stay steady and don't act recklessly, the advantage is mine!

When Qin Banruo didn't want to see Prince Yu, she would hide in Hongxiuzhao. When she was alone, she would always absentmindedly think of that lonely figure in the winding corridors of Prince Yu's mansion that afternoon.

She asked one more question, and that changed her fate. From that afternoon on, her eyes left Prince Yu, Jinling, and even Liang State, and saw the true face of the world.
