Night falls, the leaves rustle, and two carriages pass by after a long journey.

Li Miaoyi, who was sitting in the car, was exhausted, and Meng Chun and Zhongxia also had a look of exhaustion on their faces.

Finally, several people rushed to Fuzhou through Guancheng Gate.

Li Miaoyi poked her head out and looked at the bluestone-paved street. Although it was not as prosperous as the capital city, the market was still prosperous. It had just darkened, but there was not a single person in sight on the street. The shops on the street It was on, which Li Miaoyi found strange.

Finally, a few people arrived at the door of an inn, but no one came in to greet them. After entering the inn, they saw a woman over thirty years old welcoming them warmly.

"Are you coming here at this hour to stay in the hotel?"

"Stay in the hotel." Li Miaoyi nodded and said, "Four upper rooms."

"Okay." Everyone, please come with me.

The four rooms were next to each other. After arriving, the landlady left in a hurry. Li Miaoyi opened the door and walked in. The pear wood bed, desks, tables and chairs were neatly placed.

Under the waiters of Meng Chun and Zhongxia, Li Miaoyi passed by, but heard a knock on the door from outside, "Wanwan——"

Zhong Xia quickly walked over and opened the door for Xie Mingcang.

Xie Mingcang walked in quickly with a serious look on his face and said, "Wanwan, I feel something is wrong in Fuzhou. You should be careful tonight. I will be able to hear any movement right next door to you. Don't be afraid. Jinghe will keep vigil outside."

"Okay, be careful too."

Xie Mingcang nodded, "Don't worry, I'm very skilled in martial arts, nothing can happen to me." The corners of his lips were slightly raised, which made people relax.

Not long after he went out, there was another knock on the door. Meng Chun didn't think much and opened the door, but he never thought that the person standing outside was the boss's wife just now.

"This lady, I've brought you some tea——"

Xie Mingcang was right across the street. Since he allowed her to knock on the door, he must have nothing to do. She waved, "Come in quickly."

"Thank you, miss." She said and put the tea on the table.

Li Miaoyi looked at her with a smile, looking like a rich girl who was innocent and without any scheming, "Madam boss, it is extremely rare for a Dongling woman to do business. Why are you guarding this inn?"

The landlady smiled and said, "This inn belongs to my husband. He went to buy goods elsewhere. We have few people and can't recruit any assistants, so when he is away, I take care of the store."

Li Miaoyi looked at her puzzled, "I've long heard that Fuzhou is prosperous, how can we start talking about such a small number of people?"

The smile on the landlady's face suddenly froze, and she quickly laughed and said, "That's all nonsense from outsiders. Miss, don't believe it. It's getting late, so I'll leave first." After that, she hurriedly left. .

Li Miaoyi tilted her head and thought for a while, but still felt strange.

At this time, the watchman's voice came from outside, "It's dry and things are dry, be careful of the candle." From the sound of the voice, the old man must be quite old.

Li Miaoyi opened the window and stuck her head out, only to see the old man hunched over. He couldn't see his face because it was dark, but he looked like he was seventy years old. She felt strange, since when had there been a watchman of that age?

After Meng Chun packed up the clothes he would wear tomorrow, he saw Li Miaoyi staring blankly and not knowing what he was thinking, so he helplessly said, "Miss, get some rest quickly, we have to go on the road tomorrow."

Li Miaoyi nodded and lay down on the bed. Meng Chun covered her with a quilt and said, "Miss, I'll be waiting outside. If you need anything, please call me." Meng Chun just sat on the stool until midnight, but She kept her eyes open and didn't dare to relax at all. It wasn't until Zhongxia came to take her place that she yawned and returned to the room.

……

His Majesty left the morning court and when he entered the imperial study, he didn't even glance at Song Yanxing, who was kneeling at the door with a haggard face.

After approving half a stack of memorials, he raised his head, frowned and asked, "How long has the prince been kneeling?"

Eunuch Sun said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, today is the third day."

His Majesty sneered, looking at the inscrutable, "He is quite a man of character."

Seeing that His Majesty's words had softened, Eunuch Sun quickly said, "Your Majesty, in the past three days, His Highness the Crown Prince has not had a drop of water or a grain of rice. His lips are all cracked and he looks haggard. This servant is looking at His Highness the Crown Prince. My body is shaking a bit."

His Majesty snorted coldly, "I see how good he is!"

"Hey, Your Majesty, what are you talking about? It's so cold that ordinary people can't stand outside for an hour, let alone kneeling for three days."

Eunuch Sun has been able to stay in this position for so many years, naturally because he can guess the holy will, but the emperor's heart is as deep as the sea, and he has only scratched the surface.

But no matter how you say it, the prince is your majesty's son, and when it's time to comfort him, you should naturally comfort him. Otherwise, if the prince kneels outside and does something good, they will be the ones in trouble.

His Majesty narrowed his eyes, "The matter between the Crown Prince and Grand Tutor Jiang's granddaughter is currently spreading in Shangjing City. Have you heard about it?"

Eunuch Sun lowered his head, "I know a thing or two."

His Majesty's eyes were like sharp blades, "What do you think?"

Eunuch Sun hesitated for a moment. He was not very sure what answer His Majesty wanted, so he had to say, "Since ancient times, these rumors have been true and false, false and true, three people become tigers, and I really don't think so." Easy to talk about."

Hearing this, His Majesty glanced at him with a sharp look in his eyes. He was so frightened that Eunuch Sun straightened up and knelt down, "This old slave is guilty. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."

After a moment of silence, His Majesty raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "It's just a casual chat. Since I'm the one asking you, what crime do you have?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Eunuch Sun stood up tremblingly.

Because of the late emperor's words, Taifu Jiang's disciples were worthy of great use in the country. At that time, he wanted to worship Taifu Jiang as his teacher, but was declined. He understood what Taifu Jiang meant, but he just felt that he was not worthy of being reused, but he accepted him. A biological brother from the same mother is a disciple!

Because of this, his good tenth brother was looked down upon by the late emperor, because he was still young and even stayed by his side from time to time. After the prince was deposed, he even wanted to make him the prince.

If it weren't for his superior skills! Now that he can no longer sit on the dragon chair, His Majesty actually hates Jiang Yunsong in his heart, but he actually has the gold medal for immunity from death given by the late emperor!

After so many years, he has seen clearly that Jiang Yunsong is neither a royalist nor a neutralist. He cares about the people of the world, so no matter who ascends to this position, his choice will always be the one that is most suitable for the people. .

He never felt that he was any worse than Lao Shi. It was Jiang Yunsong who had no vision! It's the late emperor who has no vision!

Now he has not managed the world in an orderly manner! Who in the court would not praise him as a wise monarch!

Jiang Yunsong's inner os: Your Majesty is so awesome. Who in the court dares not to compliment you? Please wash your ears and listen to the truth~
