Langya List: Lost Son Without Regrets

Because of the affairs of Ningguohou's Mansion, he didn't think about it... Then, does it mean he knew about it a long time ago?

Seeing that Lin Su didn't speak, Mei Changsu didn't know that Lin Su was still struggling with the concept of "I knew it earlier", so he just took it as his acquiescence.

"You know that it was Concubine Yue and the Crown Prince who wanted to design Princess Nihuang with love threads but didn't tell me. I don't blame you; you knew where the six ships of black fire would end up and even knew Yanhou's plan but didn't tell me directly. I, I don't blame you; you know that Nie Feng is here now.

Where is it but insisted on not revealing any information, and I didn't say anything; but—”

"Lin Su, the explosion in the private artillery workshop is not a trivial matter. Do you know how many people died and how many people were injured? Hundreds of lives, this is no joke!"

Lin Su pursed his lips tightly, listening to Mei Changsu quietly, his hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and the corners of his eyes were tight.

"...Are you going to settle the score with me?" The words came out, but they were extremely dry.

Mei Changsu was silent, and after a while he let out a long sigh, his attitude softened slightly, and said: "I didn't mean that, I just said, you shouldn't keep it from me about such an important matter, if you tell me in advance that we have some preparations, we will There won't be so many casualties."

Lin Su was silent and did not speak.

Mei Changsu frowned, "Even if you can't disclose important information, you can still remind me a little bit, or let me pay more attention to the movement at the private cannon workshop, and this disaster can also be avoided."

Lin Su: "...I'm sorry, I was wrong about this matter."

Mei Changsu: "...I hope there will be no next time."

Lin Su lowered his head and said sullenly, "I understand."

"You..." Mei Changsu frowned and looked at Lin Su, tentatively, and said slowly, "Did you deliberately not tell me about this, or did you forget to tell me?"

Lin Su did not answer immediately.

Lin Su looked down at the pattern on the rim of the empty teacup in his hand, while Mei Changsu looked at the top of Lin Su's head, the hairband on it was Lin Su who walked along from his room.

"……forget."

Mei Changsu nodded, and said calmly, "I know, you've been busy with Jing Rui's affairs recently."

Lin Su stopped talking.

Mei Changsu reached out and stroked Lin Su's hair, and said lightly, "Lin Su, have you noticed that you pay more attention to Jing Rui than I do now?" Hearing the voice, there was an obvious smile .

Lin Su bit her lower lip and remained silent.

Mei Changsu withdrew his hand, but instead slid it behind Lin Su's ear, along his cheek to his chin, then gently lifted Lin Su's chin, and said sadly, "You care about Xiao Jingrui more than you care about me."

The sadness in Mei Changsu's eyes was too substantial, Lin Su didn't even want to blurt out: "I didn't."

Mei Changsu let go of Lin Su's chin, and returned to his indifferent appearance, as if he wasn't the one who showed that aggrieved expression just now, and said, "Lin Su, don't you feel guilty when you said 'no'? "

Lin Su's body trembled, but he couldn't speak.

……

Since their conversation that day, Mei Changsu and Lin Su have not spoken for several days.

The people in the Su residence have long been accustomed to this kind of weird low pressure. , Mei Changsu was the same as usual, but she just felt something was wrong.

She felt that the Su residence was a bit boring, and felt that it was not suitable for people to live in, and there was no way to live in it—strange, it was obviously not like this before.

……

Old place, old customers.

"Why are you frowning?" Xie Yu asked while pouring wine for Lin Su while eating.

Lin Su's face was wrinkled, and he sighed, "Our suzerain and I have completely fallen apart."

Xie Yu put down his chopsticks, leaned over, and asked softly, "What's wrong with you?"

Lin Su pressed his face to the table, looking desperate and desperate, and said bitterly, "We haven't spoken a word for three days."

Xie Yu: "...that seems quite serious."

Lin Su was so annoyed that he kicked the stool and the table, Xie Yu ran away quickly, but after Lin Su vented for a while, he collapsed on the ground and said in a tone of indifference: "I think It is very likely that I will break with the suzerain.”

"so serious?"

Lin Su jumped up like a carp, "What kind of anger do you think Mei Changsu is angry with? He wants to check your restaurant, you, and me. I didn't say anything about it. I also explained to him, why is he still angry?"

Xie Yu squinted at Lin Su, and said with a sly smile, "Maybe he is angry that you ignored him?"

Lin Su: "...Huh?"

Xie Yu shook his wine glass, and said slowly: "When the private artillery workshop exploded, didn't Xiao Jingyan still suspect that Mei Changsu planned this incident? According to your duty, you should comfort him."

Lin Su: "..."

"I said...Mei Changsu isn't this kind of person, is he?"

Xie Yu smiled slowly and said, "Have you forgotten what the slogan of that group of people is?"

Lin Su: "..." Remember—the fussy kids have candies.

"I always feel that the suzerain's persona has collapsed." Lin Su said melancholy, holding his forehead.

Xie Yu filled Lin Su's wine glass, gave Lin Su a push, and said, "Stop sighing, raise your wine glass, let's stand up and cheer!"

Lin Su: "..."

"Did you take the shake-head-pill? Why are you so excited?" Lin Su looked at Xie Yu suspiciously.

Xie Yu: "..."

He slapped him directly, "What are you thinking! Xie Qi's matter has been settled, and she will leave the day after tomorrow. After all, I got a daughter back. Am I happy?"

……

Xie Yu's words reminded Lin Su.

When he was in Langzhou, although he didn't hang out in front of Mei Changsu very often, he kept in mind the request of those people, and would go to Mei Changsu every day to say something—the rowdy children have candy.

Subtly, maybe Mei Changsu has really changed?

If Mei Changsu also makes trouble...

Lin Su privately felt that only such a Mei Changsu could be happy.

Because he no longer lives for revenge, he has what he wants, he also wants candy, and he will clamor for candy.

Lin Su would like to see such a suzerain.

……

"Cousin, do you have a trick?"

"what?"

"Teach me how to reconcile with the suzerain!"

Xie Yu: "..."

Blinking, blinking again, Xie Yu realized that it wasn't an auditory hallucination just now. After a moment of strange silence, "Why did you suddenly become enlightened?"

Lin Su: "..."

"Do you teach or not!"

Xie Yu gave Lin Su a strange look, and his intuition told him that there must be something wrong with it, but reason told him that it was best not to get to the bottom of it.

"It's very simple. If he doesn't talk to you, you take the initiative to talk to him. For this kind of thing, as long as one of the two parties speaks, it will basically be fine."

This kind of thing... what kind of thing?Lin Su really wanted to slap Xie Yu, but he held back.

"But the suzerain has been busy repairing the garden recently. I just want to talk to him, but I can't find the right time and place."

"Time? Before meals, after meals, before going to bed and after waking up, these are fine. As for the location, it doesn't matter, it can be anywhere, even if it's a corridor, it's fine. Anyway, you just say a few words, and it's not a long speech. It doesn't matter."

Lin Su: "...It's really simple." Rude.

Although Lin Su disliked Xie Yu's proposal in every possible way, he still accepted it honestly.

That night, after dinner, Lin Su slipped into Mei Changsu's room.

Sitting opposite each other, looking at each other silently.

Mei Changsu didn't drive Lin Su away, but he didn't entertain him either. He looked down at his book with a calm look, but the speed of turning the pages...was really slow.

Lin Su's ten fingers were tangled together, forming a tangled braid. He lowered his head, his eyes fell on his feet, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help but glance towards Mei Changsu.

Seeing this scene, Li Gang came in and stopped.

...and it started again.

The suzerain and his concubine are always at odds, and Li Gang expresses that as the pillar of the Jiangzuo League, he is very depressed.

"metropolitan."

Mei Changsu let out a "hmm" and calmly turned a page.

Lin Su heaved a sigh of relief, cast a grateful glance at Li Gang, and then reached out to pour tea.

Li Gang said that to be a focused person, he must get rid of all distracting thoughts, so he didn't look at Lin Su, nor did he look at Mei Changsu.

"Sect Master, Xie Yu sent Xie Qi to Lingyin Temple."

Mei Changsu dug his head out of the book, frowned slightly, seemingly puzzled, "It's so good, why did you send Xie Qi away?"

"It was Xie Yu's idea. He persuaded Princess Liyang and the Zhuo family couple."

Mei Changsu put down the book slowly, gently pinched the bridge of his nose with his slender fingers, and said while thinking: "It's only the first month now, Jingrui's birthday is April [-]th, and Xie Qi is going to give birth in May... Xie Yu is so critical. Send Xie Qi out?"

Li Gang glanced at Lin Su vaguely, but said nothing.

Lin Su kept his eyes on his nose, his nose and his heart, and silently drank his tea with his head down, with an appearance of "it's none of my business".

Mei Changsu glanced at Lin Su out of the corner of his eye, stealthily, Li Gang didn't notice, Lin Su seemed to sense it, but when he raised his head, Mei Changsu had already withdrawn his gaze.

"At the beginning, Princess Liyang brought her back to Ningguo Hou's Mansion because she was worried about Xie Qi giving birth outside, but now she is sent out again...it is still in such a remote place as Lingyin Temple..."

Li Gang thought about it and hesitated, "Sect Master, could it be that Xie Yu noticed something?"

Mei Changsu frowned slightly, but said, "But we didn't show our feet. Unless Xie Yu can predict, otherwise, he can't know our plan."

"Sovereign..." Li Gang called Mei Changsu, but secretly glanced at Lin Su.

——He suspected that Lin Su had leaked Mei Changsu's plan.

Lin Su has motivation as well as strength.

However, Mei Changsu secretly shook his head at Li Gang, and calmly ordered, "You let people watch Xie Yu, pay close attention to all his actions, and report immediately if he has any abnormal behavior."

Li Gang frowned, "Sovereign..."

Mei Changsu lowered his head, stopped looking at him, and said coldly, "Let's make arrangements."

Li Gang gritted his teeth, and finally said "yes" resignedly, and when he got up, he gave Lin Su a hard look.

After Li Gang left, Lin Su put down his teacup slowly, and said calmly, "I didn't betray you."

Mei Changsu's fingers that turned the page paused, tightened his fingers, and made a wrinkle on the paper, and then slowly let go, smoothing the paper, and said softly, "I know."

Now it was Lin Su who was surprised.

Seeing Lin Su's wide-eyed disbelief, Mei Changsu couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth, and stroked Lin Su's hair with his big hand.

"Which is more important, I believe you can still tell the difference. Right?"

Lin Su moved his lips, but said nothing.

The author has something to say: update with the latest.

Thank you for your support!

☆, 25 ease

Lin Su knew that regarding Xie Qi's matter, it was not that Mei Changsu did not doubt him.

The reason why Mei Changsu said that was just to eliminate the possibility of Lin Su leaking the plan, but Lin Su was a wild horse that had run free, and since he was about to intervene in this matter, there was no turning back.

Afterwards, Lin Su and Mei Changsu resumed their lukewarm relationship. Mei Changsu continued to be busy repairing the garden, and Lin Su continued to be busy studying the incident in Ningguohou's Mansion.

But it's okay.

Li Gang: You are safe and sound, what a ghost!They are clearly fighting a cold war, okay?

Zhen Ping: The temperature in the Su residence has dropped again today. Well, I'd better go and stand by the door, it's warm there.

Fei Liu: Brother Su has ignored Fei Liu recently...

Dr. Yan: Hmph!

Aunt Ji: There are so many leftovers recently, the suzerain doesn’t eat, so what should I do!

……

Well, it's just that everything is fine on the surface.

Meng Zhi: Why is it colder inside the house than outside?Xiao Su's house can't be air leaky, right?

Nihuang: Brother seems to be in a bad mood recently?

Prince Jing: Damn it, this king has to add clothes when he comes to the Su residence, that's absurd!

King Yu: Mr. Su's house is leaky, well, we can take this opportunity to please.

……

It seems that the recent low air pressure and tense atmosphere in the Su residence are well known.

Mei Changsu rearranged the garden, adding some flowers, plants and trees to make it look more refined, and modified some details. The entire Su residence is somewhat similar to the headquarters of Jiangzuo League in Langzhou.

Of course, the real purpose of repairing the garden is to dig through the secret passage between Su's house and Prince Jing's mansion.

In this way, Mei Changsu could have a private meeting with Prince Jing through the secret channel.

Lin Su paused to write, frowned fiercely, and muttered: "It's strange... suddenly I feel a little uncomfortable..."

It may be because of "Prince Jing". After the secret passage is opened, the number of times Xiao Jingyan comes to the Su residence will increase exponentially...

Lin Su put down his pen, leaned against the door frame, closed his eyes, and lightly pinched the bridge of his nose with his fingers.

It seems that the time to meet Xiao Jingyan should be put on the agenda.

No, let's wait.

Lin Su pursed the corners of his mouth, looked at the planner on the table that had already taken shape, his eyes darkened.

Let's wait until after the Ningguo Marquis Incident... He still doesn't know if Mei Changsu will want him after what he did...

Thinking of Mei Changsu's attitude, Lin Su's throat moved, and he let out a barely audible sob.

Today seems to be the day when Mei Changsu invites his friends to meet him at Su's house, right?

Mei Changsu invited Meng Zhi, Princess Nihuang, Xia Dong, Xia Chun, Xiao Jingrui, Yan Yujin, Mu Qing, and Yu Wang and Qin Banruo who came uninvited.

"Lin Su, do you want to go there?" Li Gang asked.

Lin Su wanted to go. After all, his nerves have been tense recently. He hasn't been with Xiao Jingrui and the others for a long time, but thinking about it, he still shook his head, "No."

He's passing by now, it's too conspicuous.

Moreover, he didn't want him to be Mei Changsu's weakness.

"Too many strangers, don't want to go."

Li Gang smiled, "Don't you like making friends the most?"

Lin Su pursed his lips, took a sip of tea, and Shi Shiran said: "I like to make friends who drink and eat meat, friends who seek out flowers and friends, like-minded friends, and friends who make jokes, but I never make friends with tricks. best friend."

"Are you talking about Prince Yu?"

Lin Su smiled lightly, and said, "I'm talking about Qin Banwei."

At best, King Yu had ulterior motives, and he was still a little away from being exhausted.

Hui is extremely easy to die.

This is the reason why Qin Banruo turned into a handful of loess early on.

The same goes for Mei Changsu...

So, sometimes he really hoped that Mei Changsu would not be too smart.

"Li Gang, tell me, the main reason for the suzerain is to be stupid."

Li Gang immediately rolled his eyes, "Then you have to be disappointed, the suzerain has been extremely intelligent and talented since he was a child."

Lin Su was lying on the table, poking the cup to play, and said seemingly unintentionally: "It would be great if the suzerain fell down from Meiling and smashed his head."

Li Gang: "... Lin, Su."

Lin Su didn't pay attention to Li Gang's anger, he slowly raised his head, his eyes swept over Li Gang lightly, and finally landed on the blue sky outside the door, and said faintly: "If the suzerain is not so smart, maybe he can live longer."

Li Gang opened his mouth and closed it instantly. After a long time, his lips moved slightly, and he said in a lonely way: "Unless the past is completely forgotten, otherwise, according to the temperament of the suzerain, it is impossible to let go of the past."

"Actually, I can't understand it." Lin Su stared at Li Gang with indifferent eyes.

"Ok?"

"If I were the suzerain, I would find a piece of land, build a house by the mountains, hoe the fields by the water, raise a few wild cranes, and recruit a few friends in my spare time, chat about interesting things in the world together, taste delicious wine and delicacies together, spend half my life leisurely, and then go to the How nice it is to meet old friends and talk to them about the interesting things I have done in the past few decades."

Li Gang was silent.

After a long time, he murmured, "You have never been a soldier, so you may not be able to understand the suzerain's ambition."

Lin Su nodded, "Indeed, I always thought that the suzerain was smart all his life, but he was confused for a while."

Li Gang: "...cough cough, the suzerain has always felt that the meaning of his survival is to avenge the [-] dead souls of the Red Flame Army. You don't know how difficult it is for the suzerain to survive. The poison of fire and cold is not a small poison , the Suzerain persisted on the belief of 'redressing the Red Flame Army', even if he lost his life because of this now, the Suzerain will not regret it."

Lin Su listened quietly.

Li Gang suddenly changed the topic, "But that was before, before you came."

These words were too ambiguous, Lin Su frowned and looked at Li Gang puzzled.

"Li Gang..." The words came out, but they were pleading.

Li Gang's expression suddenly became flustered, and he hurriedly said, "I'll go ahead to see if there is anything that needs help", and then left without stopping.

It's kind of like running away.

Lin Su pursed his lips tightly, the corners of his mouth were slightly sunken, but his eyes were clear.

Has Mei Changsu changed?

He could see clearly that Mei Changsu was not so single-minded only for revenge, the troublesome child had candy to eat, and now Mei Changsu also wanted to be that child who had candy to eat, but...

Lin Su didn't know what candy Mei Changsu wanted to eat.

Or he knew it, but he didn't want to give it.

Lin Su rushed out of the door, but Zhen Ping couldn't react in time.

"Lin Su, where are you going!"

Lin Su paused and said, "In the water." He needed to calm down.

At this time, Mei Changsu had already talked about "Guangling San", "Guangling San" has been lost for a long time, and it is already an orphan. Yujin and Mu Qing also rushed to the courtyard to look for "Guangling San", and Qin Banruo, because he wanted to find out the details of Mei Changsu, also joined the team looking for "Guangling San".

As a woman, Qin Banruo is already delicate in mind, and she is Princess Xuanji's apprentice, not to mention careful and meticulous, but also very good at scheming, and with a bit of viciousness, she is definitely a femme fatale.

If it wasn't for Qin Banruo in the open and Mei Changsu in the dark, it would not be so easy for Mei Changsu to overthrow Qin Banruo.

Lin Su has always kept Qin Banruo at arm's length, even Qin Banruo's Red Sleeve Trick has never entered. Although there are many beauties inside and the big sign of "Jieyuhua", it is too dangerous, and Lin Su is afraid that he will go in. , will die without a burial place.

Qin Banruo searched and searched, but for some reason, he walked more and more sideways, and gradually deviated from the main road.

The trees here are lush and green, covered by layers, the fruits on the trees are not yet ripe, hanging high, already making people salivate, the path is winding, and there is a pool at the end, in the pool water...

"what--"

"Damn!"

Lin Su dived into the water, cursing in his heart at the woman above who entered by mistake, but in fact, he just... vomited bubbles.

It is said that a woman's scream is very penetrating, and this is true. Qin Banruo's scream passed through the trees, the wall, and the air, reaching the ears of Mei Changsu and the others.

"This voice... seems to belong to Miss Qin?"

King Yu frowned, "Yes."

Mei Changsu thought about it, and said, "Let's go over and have a look, there's such a big commotion, don't tell me something happened."

King Yu nodded, "Then please trouble Mr. Su."

Mei Changsu smiled and led the way.

……

poolside.

Qin Banruo stood by the pool, covered his mouth, his face was a little flushed, and his eyes were fixed on the pool water, as if there was something in it.

King Yu immediately turned pale, "So weak."

Qin Banruo seemed to have just realized it, and immediately called out again, stepped back a few steps, pointed at the water in the pool, and said, "Pool, there are people in the pool!"

As soon as these words came out, King Yu, Meng Zhi, and Princess Nihuang all looked at Mei Changsu.

Mei Changsu's expression was a little ugly at this time - he thought, he knew who the person in the pool was.

Not in the mood to chat with Yu Wang anymore, Mei Changsu walked straight to the pool and said in a deep voice, "Lin Su, come out."

As soon as the word "Lin Su" came out, Qin Banruo's eyes flashed, Yu Wang's expression also changed slightly, Meng Zhi and Princess Nihuang looked at each other secretly.

But in the pool, it was still calm.

Mei Changsu waited for a while, then began to count slowly: "One, two, three..."

When I counted to "eight", I only heard a "thump", and a head popped out of the pool, it was Lin Su.

"You carry it on first, I need to put on clothes." Someone Lin gritted his teeth.

……

The pavilion of the previous banquet.

The few people who went out to look for "Guangling San" have come back, and everyone is sitting in their seats, drinking tea with their heads down, and sneaking a peek outside the pavilion from time to time.

What's outside the pavilion?

There is Lin Su outside the pavilion.

Lin Su is being punished to stand.

When Mei Changsu made him stand for punishment, Lin Su was in a daze. Is this really okay?Everyone is still there!

And Mei Changsu said, don't even think about taking chances, even if the emperor is here now, I will punish you!

Lin Su felt deeply frustrated by Mei Changsu's steadfast belief that he wanted to make him stand.

In fact, the others did not expect that Mei Changsu would punish Lin Su directly in front of them, or make him stand... a way to deal with children...

For a while, they couldn't tell whether Mei Changsu valued Lin Su or despised Lin Su.

Meng Zhi's eyes said——is Xiao Su addicted to raising children?

Princess Nihuang's eyes said - elder brother treats him... seems very different.

Xiao Jingrui's eyes said - Lin Su made a mistake again!

Yan Yujin's eyes said—Lin Su, Lin Su, Brother Su will be mad at you sooner or later.

Mu Qing's eyes were saying - hum!

Xia Dong's eyes were saying—Mei Changsu's people don't have martial arts?

Xia Chun's eyes are saying - new face.He is also a member of the Jiangzuo League?

Qin Banruo's eyes said - so it was him, he was Lin Su!

Yu Wang's eyes said - this is a piece of fat, it has to be chewed and eaten.

Mei Changsu's eyes said - Stand up for me!Don't look around!No tricks are allowed!

Lin Su: "..."

"Sovereign, I know I was wrong..."

Mei Changsu drank tea calmly, not shying away from the presence of outsiders, and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"

"I shouldn't be playful."

"Well," Mei Changsu nodded, finally looked up at Lin Su, and said, "Come in, and apologize to Miss Qin."

Lin Su: "..."

Apologize and apologize!Damn it's obviously not his fault!He soaked in water well in the backyard, it's all because of Qin Banrui, why run around for nothing!Also run to the backyard!Mom, eggs!

"I'm sorry, Miss Qin, I was rude just now."

Qin Banruo stood up, smiled slightly, winked like silk, and said softly: "It's okay, it's Banruo who strayed in and disturbed the young master, I hope Mr. Lin is not to blame."

Lin Su: "Hehe."

After Lin Su apologized, he wanted to turn around and leave, but Qin Banruo said again, "We are destined to meet each other. Banruo dares to ask your son's name."

Lin Su: "..." Is this... striking up a conversation?

Seeing that Lin Su didn't answer, Qin Banruo secretly raised his eyes to look at Lin Su, and said, "Young Master, you have the posture of a dragon and a phoenix. Ban Ruo has admired him for a long time. Today I finally see you. Please tell me your name."

Lin Su: "...I don't know you well."

Qin Banruo: "Banruo often sees the young master going in and out of Miaoyinfang and Yangliuxin, and he already has the heart to make friends, but the young master seems to have never been in the red sleeve move, so he has no chance to make friends."

Lin Su: "..." You are hurting me, do you know that?

Lin Su glanced at Sovereign Mei—very well, the Sovereign smiled, but still without showing his teeth.

Lin Su could already foresee his future fate—no, he didn't want to be separated from the beauty, he wanted to go to Miaoyinfang, he wanted to go to Yangliuxin, he didn't want to be restricted from traveling!

Qin Banruo continued to speak softly: "Banruo, please tell me your name."

Lin Su: "..."

I have never seen such a stalking Qin Banwei... "Lin Su."

Only then was Qin Banruo satisfied, "More sons."

After she sat down slowly, before Lin Su could escape, King Yu got up again.

"It turns out that your Excellency is Lin Su. This king has long heard that Mr. Lin Su is famous. He has contacts with all the dignitaries in Jinling. He has a bold temperament and is praised by everyone. Seeing him today, he really lives up to his reputation."

Lin Su: "..." You guys can't stop singing together!

"Really? It turns out that Lin has such a great reputation? He has even heard of His Royal Highness Yuwang?"

"Haha, Mr. Lin Su probably doesn't know his reputation among the dignitaries in the capital. Not long ago, even the emperor mentioned your name!"

"Is it? lol."

"However," King Yu's eyes flashed, he looked at Mei Changsu, then at Lin Su, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect it, and presumably the other dignitaries also didn't expect that Mr. Lin Su is actually a member of the Jiang Zuo League."

Lin Su frowned, and was about to speak, but Mei Changsu took the conversation away.

"His Royal Highness Yu Wang's words are wrong."

"Oh?"

Mei Changsu raised his head, neither humble nor overbearing, neither flattered nor surprised, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, he spoke in an unhurried and gentle voice, "Lin Su likes to make friends widely, and the friends he makes are all based on him. Personal name has nothing to do with Jiang Zuo League, His Royal Highness, it is better not to speculate at will."

Lin Su could see and hear Mei Changsu defending him, the corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising, like a cat that was always stealing.

"His Highness praises Lin Mou very much. Lin Mou is terrified. Lin Mou has always been willful in making friends with others. If His Highness wants to accept Lin Mou as a helper in winning the heir, it may be inappropriate."

Unexpectedly, Lin Su dared to speak out and point out Yu Wang's purpose directly, everyone was a little dumbfounded, and for a while, the surroundings were completely silent.

Mei Changsu got up at some point and stood in front of Lin Su, presenting a protective posture.

King Yu's face darkened slightly, as if he was about to explode, but Qin Banruo pulled his sleeves down and endured it.

"Mr. Lin Su wrongly blamed this king. This king just wants to be friends with Mr. Lin Su."

"Okay!"

Lin Su readily responded, and met everyone's surprised eyes, Lin Su said again: "But it will have to wait until next year."

"Why?"

Lin Su smiled sweetly, "I won't tell you."

If you can live until after the spring hunt in March next year, then I will be your friend, so what?However, it is absolutely impossible for King Yu to live to that time.

After the Spring Hunt in March, King Yu conspired against him, was given poisoned wine, and died.

……

Inside Mei Changsu's room.

"You really have the guts of a bear! How dare you talk to King Yu like that!"

Listening to Mei Changsu's reprimand, Lin Su touched his nose and stuck out his tongue.

"You still dare to make jokes? Stand up for me! Keep your back straight and your head up!"

Meng Zhi and Princess Nihuang who then came in: "..."

It turns out that Xiao Su/Brother Lin Shu also has temper tantrums...

Lin Su smiled. He didn't listen to Mei Changsu's words at all, and it was even more impossible to follow suit. He continued to make jokes, and what's more, he hung it directly on Mei Changsu's neck, "Isn't it because you are here? You will Those who protect me, I am not afraid of King Yu!"

Meng Zhi and Princess Nihuang: "..."

This picture... so eye-catching!

Mei Changsu pulled Lin Su by the collar, tapped Lin Su's nose lightly with one hand, and said, "Not next time."

"Yeah, let's not be an example!" Lin Su responded, and suddenly rolled his eyes, leaned over and slapped Mei Changsu on the face, and ran out like flying.

Before Mei Changsu could react, he touched his cheek with a dazed look on his face.

Meng Zhi and Princess Nihuang also looked confused: "..."

After a while, Mei Changsu smiled.

Meng Zhi and Princess Nihuang were dumbfounded—it felt like a door to a new world had opened.

☆, 26 Southern Chu

Prince Yufu.

Yu Wang and Qin Banruo started a discussion about Lin Su.

Qin Banruo said: "This person has been in and out of Miaoyinfang and Yangliuxin many times, but he can't avoid the red sleeve. Banruo always feels that there is something wrong with this matter."

King Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Have you checked this person?"

"I've checked." Qin Banruo said, "It's just that there are always people who disturb my clues. If I hadn't met by chance today, Banwei probably wouldn't even know his name, let alone know. It turns out that he has been in Jinling for half a year. Lin Su, who is flourishing."

"The power behind Lin Su who can disrupt Hongxiu Zhao's search for news must not be underestimated."

"It's just that Ban Ruo never knew that the Jiangzuo League had something to do with Miaoyinfang." Qin Ban Ruo smiled softly and said suddenly.

King Yu's expression froze, "Why did you say that?"

"Ban Ruo once accidentally saw Lin Su meeting Miss Gong Yu."

Yu Wang was puzzled, "Isn't this a common thing?"

Qin Banruo pursed his lips, and said with a smile, "It's not uncommon for a gifted man to meet a beautiful woman, but what if this gifted man brings a gift every time?"

King Yu's face changed - with a gift?Is it to please the beautiful woman?

Qin Banruo immediately continued: "I heard from the girl from Hongxiu Zhao that they call that gift a 'consolation item'."

Yu Wang pondered for a moment, his face became more and more gloomy.

"You find a way to find out the details of Lin Su."

"Yes."

King Yu squinted his eyes slightly, and murmured softly: "If Miaoyinfang is a force of the Jiangzuo League, it will be a great help to this king, but..."

Now that Mei Changsu is being used by him, the Jiangzuo League is his power. Originally, the greater the power of the Jiangzuo League, the greater his chances of winning, but for some reason, he suddenly felt uneasy.

"Mei Changsu has already expressed his attitude today. We can't move Lin Su. When you check the news, be careful not to be noticed by Mei Changsu."

"As weak as you know."

"Hmm... Lin Su, Lin Su... I'm afraid that Mei Changsu has other plans."

"Your Highness?"

"Forget it, can't this king be able to send down a counselor?" King Yu waved his hand, "You searched Mei Changsu's courtyard today, did you find anything?"

……

Su's house.

After seeing off Meng Zhi and Princess Nihuang, Mei Changsu sat alone on the futon, thinking about the conversation just now, feeling a little dazed.

In fact, he didn't want to do this either, but since he survived all kinds of hardships and obstacles, he couldn't live an ordinary life. Moreover, he had been planning for so many years, so of course he couldn't give up halfway.

It's just Lin Su...

"They've all gone?"

Lin Su opened the door, showing his head, and asked.

Mei Changsu stared at him gravely.

Lin Su blinked, ran over, knelt down in front of Mei Changsu, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" After thinking about it, he hesitated and asked, "Bringing up sad things again?"

"Ah."

So Sect Master Mei is now...begging for comfort?Lin Su scratched his head, somewhat at a loss.

Mei Changsu stared at Lin Su expressionlessly, his eyes were far and deep, and suddenly, he stretched out his hand, his cool fingers stroked Lin Su's cheek, feeling a little cold.

Lin Su looked at Mei Changsu in amazement, the cold touch on his face reminded him what Mei Changsu was doing now, but knowing that it couldn't be done like this, Lin Su didn't stop him.

"Lin Su, let's make up." Mei Changsu withdrew his hand and looked at Lin Su seriously.

Lin Su looked at Mei Changsu quietly, and after a while, nodded happily, "Okay."

……

It is now April, and as Xiao Jingrui's birthday, April [-]th, approaches, Mei Changsu's pre-planned chess game gradually reveals its original appearance. The real identity was conveyed to King Yu, and at the same time, Gong Yu received a message from Mei Changsu, asking her to prepare to assassinate Xie Yu, and the Southern Chu Mission was about to enter Beijing.

King Jing once visited Su's house, and when he talked about the Southern Chu mission's marriage proposal, Mei Changsu had a plan in his mind, and he assured King Jing that Xiao Jingyan would never be the one who married Princess Nanchu.

A few days later, the punishment for the prisoner exchange case came down, He Jingzhong, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, was dismissed, He Wenxin carried out the original sentence, and Qi Min, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, was dismissed from his post and sentenced to exile. All other officials involved in the case were sentenced to the same sentence.

King Yu lost two ministers in a row, which can be said to be a heavy loss. He paid special attention to the candidates for the new ministers of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Punishment, and the crown prince was unwilling to let go of this opportunity to install people. The two forces were in great trouble.

However, in the end, Cai Quan took the position of minister of the Ministry of Punishment.

Neither side fared well.

Later, Emperor Liang went to visit Concubine Jing on a whim, and was used to intrigues. He yearned for Concubine Jing's virtuous and virtuous, courteous advances and retreats, and no struggle or pursuit. For Concubine Jing.

At the same time, Meng Zhibai
