Chapter 445: Meng Jian

PS: I found that everyone’s appetite has been spoiled, so I plan to resume the sixth update.

In the early morning, Chu Li was practicing in the small courtyard of the Secret Guard Mansion, when Xu Huande strode in.

Chu Li glanced at it and continued his actions.

Xu Huande sat at the stone table: "Chu Li, you can come out of seclusion!"

Chu Li smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm entering a good state and I want to retreat for a while. It's much better here than in the palace. It's really quiet!"

Xu Huande said coldly: "Did you do those two secret guards?"

"What secret guards?" Chu Li was startled, stopped, and then suddenly realized: "Oh, those two who sent the news to the opponents of the Duke's Mansion? What happened to them?"

Xu Huande snorted heavily: "My martial arts skills have been abolished!"

"Only martial arts are useless?" Chu Li continued to move, shook his head and sighed: "The eldest son is so kind. If it were me, I would kill him directly, find a place where no one is around, and bury him. If you don't see the body alive or dead, who will?

What can I say!"

Xu Huande's eyes were like daggers, staring at him, trying to see whether what he said was true or false.

Chu Li said: "Commander Xu suspects me? How do I know who they are? How can I kill people if they stay here all day long?"

"Hmph!" Xu Huande gritted his teeth: "It's better not to be you, otherwise..."

Chu Li slowly moved his palms and said slowly: "Since you let me out, it must be quiet outside. What's the situation?"

Xu Huande said coldly: "It is definitely not a good thing for the Duke's mansion to be so public!"

Chu Li said: "If the Duke's palace is public, the emperor will be wary! But whether it is public or not, the emperor will be wary... It doesn't matter about the two secret guards, right?"

"I can't die!" Xu Huande snorted.

He was also very angry with these two guys. He was good at making opinions and had personal grudges mixed in. He was so selfish that it caused such a big turmoil. Even if he didn't give up his martial arts, he would not be able to get back to the Secret Guard Mansion.

Chu Li slowly stopped his momentum and let out a sigh of relief.

The white air he exhaled shot out like an arrow and dissipated one foot away.

Xu Huande frowned.

This guy's internal energy is extremely pure, and he is vaguely better than me. In only fifteen days, he has advanced far faster than himself. If this continues, he will soon be no match for him!

——

A young man with a jade-like face appeared in front of Prince An's palace. He stood there like a jade tree standing in the wind, and naturally attracted the attention of the surrounding people. He looked elegant and graceful.

When he arrived in front of Prince An's Mansion, the two guards looked at him warily, feeling the danger emanating from him.

"Who are you looking for, sir?" a guard asked in a deep voice, cupping his fists.

"I am Meng Jian, the brother of Meng Zhi." The handsome young man clasped his fists and said with a smile, "I wonder if my brother Meng Zhi is here at home?"

"Vice Commander Meng?" The two guards were startled and looked at each other.

"Did something happen to my brother?" Meng Jian said slowly.

His face darkened, his voice was slow and powerful, and every word seemed to hit the hearts of the two guards.

They trembled and waved their hands hastily.

The guard in front of him said hurriedly: "Vice Commander Meng left the mansion and has not come back yet."

"How long?" Meng Jian said solemnly.

"More than a month."

"...I want to meet the prince." Meng Jian said.

"Mr. Meng, we can't make the decision, so we can only inform you first."

"Well, go ahead."

A guard rushed into the palace.

Manager Chu quickly strode out. As soon as he left the house, he clasped his fists and smiled: "Mr. Meng, please come in quickly! Please come in quickly!"

Meng Jian clasped his fists and smiled lightly.

Mr. Chu said: "Just call me Lao Chu. I am the general manager of the foreign government. Mr. Meng, hurry up and invite me!"

"Mr. Chu." Meng Jian nodded gently and followed Mr. Chu into the palace.

While walking on the road, Meng Jian asked: "My brother is said to have been away from home for more than a month. I wonder what happened?"

"This..." Manager Chu said helplessly: "I really don't know. Commander Meng is directly responsible for the prince. I have no right to interfere. The prince is in retreat. I don't know whether the commander knows about this matter. I will go and ask Zheng immediately.

Commander!"

He took Meng Jian into the hall, ordered someone to greet Zheng Lide, and then served good tea attentively.

Zheng Lide quickly entered the hall.

"Commander Zheng, this is Commander Meng's brother, Master Meng Jian." After the introduction, Manager Chu took the opportunity to leave.

Zheng Lide said: "I have heard Commander Meng mention it a long time ago that Master Meng Jian is a high disciple of Ziyun Mountain, right?"

He secretly sighed that Meng Zhi had a good brother, a talented person and a majestic person who was definitely not a thing in the pool.

"No, that's right." Meng Jian cupped his fists and said gently.

He is calm and calm, his voice is soothing and unhurried.

"Alas... you have to express your condolences about Commander Meng." Zheng Lide shook his head and sighed: "There is no news about Commander Meng so far. It is probably an accident."

Meng Jian frowned and said, "My brother is dead?"

"You can't see people alive or dead, but you can't see corpses." Zheng Lide said: "It's really hard to explain this situation clearly..."

He shook his head and sighed.

"Brother, what exactly is he going to do?" Meng Jian said, "I want to ask the prince face to face."

"The prince is in seclusion." Zheng Lide said: "Mr. Meng, you can wait a moment and ask for clarification after the prince comes out of seclusion."

"It seems that the prince doesn't care about my brother's life or death." Meng Jian said lightly: "You haven't sent anyone to investigate, right?"

"The prince is naturally concerned about Commander Meng and ordered me to investigate." Zheng Lide shook his head and said: "There are no clues at all. It seems to have disappeared out of thin air!"

Meng Jian asked: "Does my brother have any enemies?"

Zheng Lide was startled and stopped talking.

Meng Jian said calmly: "Commander Zheng had a fight with my brother's colleagues, how could he just watch the murderer get away with it?"

"We haven't seen Commander Meng's body yet, so we can't conclude that he must be dead. Maybe he had an unexpected encounter and is practicing hard in seclusion." Zheng Lide said hurriedly.

Meng Jian shook his head: "My brother is indeed no longer alive."

He had a keen sense, and after entering the palace, he was finally able to conclude that his brother was indeed dead and his breath no longer existed in this world.

"Alas... What a pity!" Zheng Lide shook his head and said: "I get along very well with Lao Meng, how could he..., that's all, this is also the fate of us martial arts people!"

Meng Jian said: "I want to meet the prince."

"This..." Zheng Lide said in embarrassment: "The prince is in seclusion and does not see outsiders."

"I think the prince will meet me." Meng Jian said.

"Well, let's ask Venerable Xu Ning first." Zheng Lide said, "Master Meng, come with me."

The two of them arrived outside the training academy.

Xu Ning was dressed in a yellow monk's robe. He was sitting quietly on the futon outside the practice courtyard with his eyes closed, motionless and already in meditation.

When the two people appeared, he slowly opened his eyes, his clear gaze fell on Meng Jian's face, and he titheed: "Benefactor Meng."

"From the Vajra Temple?" Meng Jian said.

Xu Ning said: "Little monk Xu Ning, Meng Shi wants to see the prince. Please wait for an hour."

"...Okay." Meng Jian nodded slowly and said, "I didn't expect that the monks from the Vajra Temple would appear in the palace!"

Xu Ning smiled slightly, joined the tithe, and closed his eyes again.

Meng Jian snorted and stopped talking.

Zheng Lide hurriedly said goodbye and left.

The sun slowly rises and shines warmly on the body, making people feel sleepy.
