Chapter 38
Zheng Guogong listened to her and rubbed the chess pieces with his fingertips, as if he was very interested in this question.

"Your Highness, tell me."

The girl combed a high bun with hairpins dotted in it, exposing the snow-white nape of her neck.

The corners of her lips were curved into a beautiful arc, and she spoke unhurriedly, "Nowadays, the father has no heirs, and the ministers of the court have proposed to choose a nephew from the royal family to be the heir. What do you think, Uncle Zheng?"

Zheng Guogong lowered his eyes and was speechless.

He knew the purpose of Meng Qing's visit.

All of Chu Huangsheng's daughters wanted to be superior and refused to be inferior.

But woman...

After careful consideration, he said bluntly: "I think that the son of Jiayuan is very good, and he has a benevolent character at a young age."

Meng Qing snorted lightly.

This was something she had expected a long time ago. There were people in the court who supported King Jin, and there were also those who supported the son of Jiayuan.

But Jiayuan is only a seven-year-old child after all, if he is called the emperor and cannot govern himself, who should help him in the end?Those who support the son of Jiayuan must be Qingliu of the court or the nobles of the offshoot royal family. Their purpose is to promote their father and son to kill each other, and their intentions are extremely sinister!
Meng Qing deliberately said: "Why? Isn't King Jin more suitable than Prince Jiayuan?"

Zheng Guogong looked at the black and white chessboard, thought for a moment, and the chess piece was settled.

"Whether it's suitable or not, His Highness knows better than the minister, and asking the minister why, I'm afraid it's unnecessary."

King Jin met Zheng Guogong today, he must have come for Zheng Guogong's power, but judging from his words, it should not be agreed.

Therefore, Meng Qing became even more unscrupulous.

"Uncle Zheng, the son of Jiayuan is still young, and the important officials in the court are ready to move. If he is unable to take charge of the government in the future, it will definitely cause turmoil in the country. In my opinion, he is not suitable."

But no matter what Meng Qing said, he was indifferent.

"I know what your highness wants to say, please go back."

She looked at the situation on the chessboard with a headache, and could only show her hole cards.

"I heard that Uncle Zheng likes to collect chess boards recently, especially the red sandalwood chess board with the wooden painting. I wonder if Uncle Zheng would like to see him?"

As she expected.

Zheng Guogong did show a surprised expression.

He was confused: "This chessboard... is in your hand?"

Meng Qing nodded, "It's an old item of the late Yue Guifei. She gave it to me as a dowry."

Zheng Guogong stared at her and had already seen through her.

"Make an offer."

It's true that people don't speak code words.

Meng Qing bent her pure and clean eyes, quite heroic.

She said: "A price? Uncle Zheng, Qingqing specially brought this chessboard from the palace for you."

"..."

Zheng Guogong has deep eyebrows and eyes, like an old fox hiding in the dark, unfathomable.

"Gift? There is no such good thing in the world."

indeed.

Meng Qing was not willing to give such a precious thing as an unconditional gift.

"I know that Uncle Zheng regards power and money as nothing, so I do what he likes, and hereby offer this thing. If Uncle Zheng has made up his mind, it's okay if he doesn't want to negotiate with me too much. Please accept this thing by all means, and treat it as an expression of affection from the younger generation."

Retreat to advance.

She called out the door: "Yunhe!"

"The servant is here."

"Present the chessboard soon."

"Yes."

After speaking, Yun He asked people to carry the chessboard together.

For just a stick of incense, Meng Qing looked at Zheng Guogong's expression from time to time.

She gave Zheng Guogong enough time to think about it, and hoped that he could think clearly about choosing an enlightened master, and this enlightened master was her.

There were hurried footsteps outside the house, Yun He called his attendants to bring up the chessboard, and put it lightly beside the two of them.

Zheng Guogong was also disdainful at first, until he saw the real face of the wood-painted red sandalwood chess game, he was shocked, and he didn't care about his manners, he just kept saying: "Wonderful! Wonderful!"

Meng Qing got up and saluted, "This is a little kindness from this junior, please accept it with a smile from Uncle Zheng."

Zheng Guogong ignored her, stretched out his hand to caress her, and was addicted to this chessboard and couldn't extricate himself.

Meng Qing smiled and said: "It's getting late, it's time to go back to the palace, Uncle Zheng will take his leave."

She turned around and was about to go, not at all afraid that Zheng Guogong would ignore this thing, it was imperative.

Zheng Guogong caught a glimpse of the light-colored skirt from the corner of his eye, retracted the shock in his eyes, and said, "Wait a minute."

Meng Qing pursed her lips, looking as if she had succeeded in a trick.

She turned around and asked suspiciously: "But is there something wrong with the chessboard?"

Zheng Guogong raised his head and said solemnly: "Nothing."

"That……"

He changes his mind quickly.

In other words, he never made up his mind to support anyone, but he saw that Meng Qing was the most sincere, and he was willing to listen to her words.

"What Your Highness said, I will think about it and give His Highness an answer tomorrow."

Meng Qing was overjoyed after hearing this.

"Okay, then I will wait for the good news in the palace."

"Ah."

Meng Qingfu left.

After leaving Zheng Guogong's mansion, I planned to get in the car and go back to the palace.

Just two steps after stepping on the steps, I saw a young man galloping towards him, his red robe fluttering in the wind, and he saw a young man galloping forward.

"and many more!"

Meng Qing narrowed her eyes and took a closer look.

The young man rode his horse and swung his whip, and stopped in front of the BMW car with a loud "Hoo--".

Meng Qing was quite surprised.

"Qi Yuan?"

Her inner os!

Why is it him again!
Some time ago, she just tricked him, and she went out of the palace today. It was a coincidence that she bumped into such a living Hades!
wrong!

Meng Heng has already left Beijing today, why is Qi Yuan still in the capital... Didn't he go to Yunnan with Meng Heng?
Forget it, let's run quickly!

His mother is the eldest princess Wen Zhao, she is a compatriot with King Chu and King Jin, and she is also her own aunt...

Meng Qing was about to lift the curtain and get into the carriage if there was any disagreement.

Seeing her hiding, Qi Yuan jumped on the horse and grabbed her wrist.

Meng Qing was so tired of him that she couldn't get rid of him no matter how tight she was, "Qi Yuan! Why are you crazy? It's not enough to be demoted to Yunnan, do you want to eat a prison meal?"

Who knows, Qi Yuan refuses to let go.

He said: "You misunderstood, I came today to apologize to you."

"..."

what?
Apologize?

What a joke!
Meng Qing thought she had heard wrong...

She had never heard of Qi Yuan saying "apology" to her in her previous life.

She looked flustered.

"Dao, what are you apologizing for?"

Qi Yuan nodded, his face was sincere and friendly, not as fierce as usual.

Meng Qing pursed her lips, and glanced at his strong and strong palm, "Take it first, take it away!"

"As long as you don't run, I will let go."

"Don't run, absolutely don't run!"

She promised again and again.

Only then did Qi Yuan hesitantly let go.

"Meng Qing, you and I have been friends since we were young. I have always ignored your feelings for the sake of Ah Heng all these years. I am sorry. I rushed into the palace to look for you that day. It was really abrupt. I should have found out the whole story first, but I was preconceived..."

Meng Qing held the roof of the car impatiently, "And then?"

The young man raised his head and quietly saw her fluttering blue hair, her appearance was graceful and gentle.
