When Emperor Meng heard Sun Sheng's impassioned words, he immediately felt happy. His every move was full of admiration. He quickly took Sun Sheng's hand and continued: "Let's go, I have prepared a dinner for you in the palace.
Tonight I will have a happy gathering with all my dear friends. You have all worked hard, so don’t refuse. This is all what you should do." After saying that, he grabbed Sun Sheng and left.
Sun Sheng moved and said softly: "Your Majesty, it's just Emperor Mu... He is still on the carriage, what should we do now?"
Only then did Emperor Meng react. He patted his forehead quickly and said, "Haha, I am indeed getting old. I always forget important things. This time Emperor Mu finally comes to Meng Country, and he must do it well."
Let’s have some exchanges with our Meng country. Admiral, bring him along tonight to have a party together!” Emperor Meng didn’t mind at all that Mu Lianlong was a prisoner, he just said cheerfully, no one could tell that he had any
What does it mean in it.
When they arrived at the palace, a banquet had been set up inside. Xia Ziying and Mu Lianlong entered the palace under the leadership of Sun Sheng. Meng Zhiqing also sat down inside. Emperor Meng was in a very good mood today and kept shouting
Get everyone seated.
Seeing that everyone was already seated at the table, Emperor Meng looked towards Mu Lianlong. The two most proud men in the world looked at each other. Emperor Meng took the lead and said: "Emperor Mu has traveled thousands of miles to come to our country, Meng.
You should have seen various scenery of my country on the way. I had no choice but to invite Emperor Mu to come here this time. I wonder if Emperor Mu holds a grudge against me?"
Mu Lianlong smiled slightly and raised the wine glass in his hand, "Meng Huang is too modest. The so-called defeated general is not brave enough, and he is not qualified to say anything. However, along the way, he still saw that Meng Guo was under Meng Huang's control.
It is flourishing under the rule, which is really surprising. I really admire Emperor Meng's civil and military skills. I have seen the great achievements of Emperor Meng."
After hearing Mu Lianlong's compliments, Emperor Meng burst out laughing. He waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that he would drink before talking, and then drank a glass with the generals. Then he said: "Yes, time flies.
, recalling that the Meng State was a barren land back then. It was not as prosperous as the Mu State, but time can change everything. The people here are hard-working. In just a few decades, this country has already been transformed.
This place has changed. To say that it is my contribution is an exaggeration. In fact, it is the people of Meng who trust and encourage me. Without them, it would not be like this, let alone Emperor Mu himself.
I came here as a guest, haha, think about it, it has been decades. I think back then, Meng Guo and Mu Guo were one family, and your father was still my brother. Time flies, and in just a few decades, everything has become extraordinary.
Okay, may I ask how your brother is doing?"
Mu Lianlong naturally knew that Mu and Meng were originally one family, but something happened that year that caused a complete country to be divided into two countries, turning a good country into two opposing countries.
"Emperor Meng really never forgets his old feelings. He didn't expect that he is still thinking about his father. This really makes my nephew admire him. Since my father passed the throne to me, he has been living in seclusion and fishing all day long.
Growing flowers, I have never paid attention to national affairs, and I have ignored government affairs for a long time." After saying that, Mu Lianlong still had a very serious look on his face.
Meng Huang nodded, "Okay, that's good. I heard that the emperor's life was so good, and I was very happy mentally. Sometimes I still think of the emperor in my dreams. Haha, time flies.
As time goes by, I really didn’t expect that the emperor’s brother would have ignored the government affairs for a long time. It’s such a blessing. It’s also a blessing to have a successor like you, the emperor’s nephew.” The meaning in his words was so profound that anyone who heard it could hear it.
There was a kind of harsh teasing in the ears. Xia Ziying watched the expressions between them on the side, fearing that Mu Lianlong couldn't help it and looked at him with a worried look on his face.
Mu Lianlong just breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Haha, in fact, if you want to let go of power, it is a very simple matter. What Father can do, Emperor Meng, you can also do it.
, It's just that for something as tempting as imperial power, once some people pick it up, they will never give it up." Just as he finished speaking, he saw the expressions of the people on the side suddenly change, and Li Su stood with a smile.
He stood up and said: "Haha, I have heard for a long time that Emperor Mu is a rare general who is rare to see in a hundred years. It seems that he also has a lot of experience in speaking. It is really surprising that everyone is enlightened by his words."
Meng Huang also followed up and said: "Yes, the emperor's nephew is the so-called true knowledge. I have not heard such words for a long time. It is very thought-provoking." After saying that, he gave a very thought-provoking speech.
Appreciative eyes.
When Sun Sheng saw this, he immediately stood up and said: "Haha, since everyone is communicating and asking for advice today, it is a kind of fate. In this case, why not come and celebrate."
Everyone nodded quickly, raised their glasses in celebration, and drank it all in one gulp.
The short banquet ended soon. When everyone was pushing out, Emperor Meng stopped Sun Sheng. Sun Sheng came to Emperor Meng. Emperor Meng had a hint of worry on his face and asked worriedly:
"What's wrong with the prince today? Why hasn't he said a word so far? He looked worried during the banquet. I remember that he wasn't in such a state when he left. Could something have happened in the meantime?"
Sun Sheng chuckled, a little embarrassed to say it, but when he saw Emperor Meng's serious expression, he immediately said: "The prince went to the front line to reward all the soldiers, and met a woman from Mu State on the way.
I thought she was going to defect to my country, Meng, so I took her to the military camp, and finally found out that she was Emperor Mu’s concubine, Concubine Xia! But this time the prince seemed to have had his thoughts moved, so he remained gentle and silent.
Until now."
After hearing the reasons mentioned by Sun Sheng, I thought that Emperor Meng would be a little unhappy. Unexpectedly, Emperor Meng started laughing, which scared Sun Sheng on the spot. He looked very confused.
She looked at him in shock and asked for a long time: "Your Majesty, why are you laughing?"
Meng Huang said with a smile: "Haha, I also found a lot of concubines for Qing'er before. At first he didn't like any of them, but I didn't expect that today he would be in love. It's really good news, even though she is
She is the concubine of Emperor Mu, but Emperor Mu is now a prisoner of the Meng Kingdom. In this case, no matter what happens, I will help my prince achieve his wish and cannot let him sink like this."
When Sun Sheng heard what Emperor Meng said, he didn't know what to say for a moment. He just nodded and said, "If your Majesty has nothing else to do, then I will resign."
Meng Huang smiled and waved to Sun Sheng, "By the way, when you go out, call Qing'er in. I have something to discuss with him."
Sun Sheng didn't need to guess, he already knew it. It seemed that the emperor had to fulfill the prince's wish. He didn't know how he felt in his heart. He just felt a little strange. When he thought of Emperor Mu and Concubine Xia being there at that time,
Seemingly, he felt slightly disturbed mentally. He kowtowed to Emperor Meng and left.
When they came outside, they heard the voice of Emperor Meng inside, and said to the little eunuchs on the left and right: "Go, you guys go down and separate the woman next to Emperor Mu, and serve her well, without any trace.
Stay cold, otherwise I will never let you go."
As soon as the eunuchs heard the emperor's words, they nodded and knelt down quickly and said: "Yes, the slaves are just going to do something. The emperor can rest assured." After saying that, they came out one by one.
When Sun Sheng heard this, he left quickly and came to a remote place. He watched quietly as several eunuchs came out and hurried towards the place where Emperor Mu was imprisoned.
Watching them leave, Sun Sheng walked out and just shook his head. After all, Emperor Mu can be regarded as a generation of generals today. Unfortunately, he was captured by him this time, but it did not mean that he would be deprived of the women around him, but
He was helpless. Why did Emperor Meng have only such a son? He was always thinking about this precious prince, for fear that something might go wrong. So it was not surprising that he acted like this.
After arriving outside, we went directly to the East Palace. Prince Meng Zhiqing's East Palace has been the so-called elegant garden since ancient times. It is decorated with antiques and the calligraphy of various literati can be found here. Even the maids and eunuchs in the Prince's East Palace
They have all been selected and must have a certain cultural background before entering, so some people joke that the East Palace is not a place for ordinary people to go, but a paradise for literati!
The eunuchs and maids in the East Palace were tamed and obedient. They were not like the eunuchs in other palaces at all. They all looked gentle and polite, which was surprising to see. The eunuchs looked like literati and flirts, while the maids looked like talented women.
Such a scene is really fascinating.
Sun Sheng arrived at the Prince's East Palace. When the eunuch at the gate saw the Marshal coming, he walked over, saluted quickly, and then asked in a low voice: "See the Marshal, but the Marshal wants to see the Prince?"
"Yes, I came here on the emperor's order to summon the prince to the palace to see the emperor." Sun Shengyan said briefly and concisely, then he saw the bitter look on the eunuch's face and asked: "What's wrong? Isn't the prince not in the East Palace?"
The eunuch shook his head, "That's not true. It's just that since the prince came back, he hid in the study and never came out. Whether he was delivering tea or water, he always scolded the general. We little people are really in a difficult situation.
I didn't dare to offend the prince, so I stayed outside the door, so if I want to see the prince now, I'm afraid it would be a bit..." The eunuch said hesitantly, and then looked at Sun Sheng with an embarrassed look on his face.
