At Longtan's house, Wang Xian met Zhu Meigui, who was pretending to be Longtan's son, as expected. After taking off his disguise, he looked exactly like the double, and even had a similar temperament... What does it mean to be a king?
The so-called aura is nothing more than the halo generated by their status and authority. Once the swallows of the old Wang Xietang fly into the homes of ordinary people, they are also like fallen phoenixes, not as good as chickens...
"Your Highness." Seeing Zhu Meigui looking at him motionless, Wang Xian didn't want to irritate this down-and-out boy anymore, so he cupped his hands as a salute and said, "It's great to see that you are okay."
The corner of Zhu Meigui's mouth twitched, and she thought to herself: "What kind of pot can you not open and lift? It's a pity that my good brother died in the hands of adults..."
"Accidental injury, a misunderstanding." Wang Xian said with an embarrassed smile: "He pretended to be so similar at the time, I thought he was going to take my life."
"Your Majesty is so sure that he is a substitute, aren't you afraid of accidental injury?" Zhu Meigui asked coldly.
"Haha..." Wang Xian smiled and did not answer, obviously not afraid.
"Your Excellency is really... courageous." Zhu Meigui felt very angry, why are you so bold, a madman? How dare you not take the lives of Long Zi and Long Sun seriously? But if you say too much, you are bringing shame on yourself.
He had no choice but to change the topic and said, "My lord, this trip to Taiyuan has brought you both fame and fortune."
"Praise, praise," Wang Xian said vaguely, not knowing what this boy knew, "I didn't expect that person to look exactly like His Highness. Not only do they look the same, they also speak the same words."
"Please don't make fun of the deceased." Zhu Meigui was a little angry.
"Okay." Wang Xianzhong said fluently: "Then what does Your Highness want to say?"
"My father and son are now bankrupt for the sake of the prince," Zhu Meigui said sadly, "Uncle Yang, my brother-in-law, my brother... they all suffered from this."
"The two commanders should be fine." Wang Xian said with a smile.
"Then my father and son have completely lost control over the three guards in Taiyuan." Zhu Meigui couldn't help but said angrily: "Shouldn't His Highness the Crown Prince do something for my father and son?"
"Your Highness, please be patient. The Crown Prince will ensure the safety of His Highness, there is no doubt about it..." Wang Xian was not in a hurry and said with a smile: "Think more deeply, why does the Crown Prince want to ensure the safety of Your Highness and his son?
Isn’t this obvious..."
"You mean, the prince will help me and my son reset?" Zhu Meigui couldn't calm down at all.
"No need to ask." Wang Xian laughed and said, "Your Highness, are you relieved now?"
"When will it be?" Zhu Meigui was not easy to fool.
"Is this it?" Wang Xianyu laughed twice and said: "This kind of matter requires long-term planning. I just mentioned the time casually, which is obviously to fool His Highness. When I return to Beijing and ask the Crown Prince, I will give an explanation to His Highness."
"Okay, don't fool me." Zhu Meigui said coldly: "I know what you are thinking. Now that my father and son are of no use, they have become a burden. It will definitely be delayed for a while... I estimate that today's health will be alive for a day.
Even the prince wouldn’t say this, right?”
"Don't be so absolute." Wang Xian said with a smile: "This mainly depends on the timing..."
"Okay, don't fool me." Zhu Meigui said with anger in his eyes: "Sir, don't think that my father and son are really at the mercy of others." He gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Unless you treat everyone in the world as fools.
"
"What do you mean?" Wang Xian frowned.
"What do you mean?" Zhu Meigui laughed happily and said: "My third uncle colluded with Taiyuan officials and Datong generals to create Guangling Liu Zi into this situation. He guarded and stole several times, cut off the emperor's food and grass, and almost starved hundreds of thousands of troops to death.
On the grassland, adults turned their hands to make clouds and rain, and wanted to close the case even though they abandoned a mere Zhang Chun. Isn't this treating the world as a fool?"
"I still don't understand." Wang Xian shook his head and said.
"Then let me make it more clear." Zhu Meigui said coldly: "Just because Zhang Chun is dead, it doesn't mean that my third uncle is safe. I also have evidence. I can expose the good deeds he did to the world and let him die."
No burial place." He glanced at the expressionless Wang Xiandao: "But if that happens, I'm afraid your Excellency will not be spared, and the Prince will not live in peace either."
"Hahahaha..." Zhu Meigui thought Wang Xian would be scared, or at least surprised, but unexpectedly he laughed loudly: "No wonder your father and son ended up in this situation, they are so childish."
"Whatever you say," Zhu Meigui said with a straight face.
"I know there are people of yours around King Jin, otherwise how could your men be able to come and go from Taiyuan at will?" Wang Xian said with a smile: "But so what? Now that the case has been closed, and it was judged by the Emperor Jinkou, do you really plan to do so?"
Overturn the verdict?"
"So what if the verdict is reversed?" Zhu Meigui said with a smile without showing any signs of weakness: "I believe that the King of Han and King Zhao are very happy to see this scene." He is also a very good character.
"Hahahahaha" Wang Xian said with laughter as if he had heard the funniest joke: "Who are you trying to scare? The King of Han dares to touch the King of Jin? I have read the letter written by King Zhao to the King of Jin. If that thing is allowed to the Emperor
See, do you believe that the emperor can peel off their skins with his own hands?" He took out his handkerchief and wiped his tears and said, "That would be great, the emperor only has three sons, and it would be impossible if he didn't pass the throne to the prince."
"No matter what the prince does, you are dead," Zhu Meigui said with a livid face.
"Why am I dead?" Wang Xian shook his head repeatedly. Every time he shook his head, he seemed to be questioning Zhu Meigui's IQ. "All the confessions were not forced confessions, and all the physical evidence was not fabricated. I did not find out that King Jin was involved.
"It's a question of ability and courage. The most you can do is to dismiss from office and go home to farm." He put on a hateful smile and said, "When the crown prince ascends to the throne, I will be able to rise to prominence again." After speaking, he glanced at Zhu Meigui and said.
"But don't worry too much, Your Highness. His Royal Highness is kind and will not bear grudges against your father and son. He just sent you and his son to guard the tomb in Black Camel Mountain. It seems to be the Holy One's will, right? You sneaking out is considered a deception."
Is the crime still disobedience? I am not good at learning the Ming Dynasty law, so please ask Your Highness to teach me."
"You..." Zhu Migui's face was so gloomy that he couldn't make any sound when he opened his mouth. Because he knew that Wang Xian was right. Although he had evidence that Zhu Jiyan colluded with Liu Zijin, he also
There is evidence that Zhu Jiyan killed the old concubine, but it could not be delivered to the emperor without relying on the crown prince or one of the two kings. If the king of Han and the king of Zhao had something in the hands of the king of Jin, they would definitely not help themselves. At most, they would take it.
He came to restrain King Jin himself. And the prince... Wang Xian's intention was very clear just now, and he would not help him for the time being.
Thinking that a guy like Zhu Jiyan, who had done so many evil things, could be protected by all parties, and that his father was always a good person, but ended up as a human being, Zhu Meigui felt a burst of sadness, and said angrily: "I don't believe it, don't you?"
That’s right
"What is the law of nature? The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. This is the law of nature." Wang Xian stood up, walked in front of Zhu Meigui, looked down at him and said: "Since we lost to Zhu Jiyan in this round, you and your son will
Hiding in a corner where no one is paying attention, how can you not take care of his former classmates after His Highness the Crown Prince has established a firm foothold? You said that you are just adding to the chaos by tossing and tossing."
"I..." Zhu Migui was always very proud and regarded himself as his father's savior, but Wang Xian said that he was doing nothing but doing nothing to help. It was a huge blow to him.
"How good would it be if you went back to accompany your father, write, raise flowers, cultivate yourself for a few years, and wait for the good news from the prince?" Wang Xian put on a kind expression and said: "By the way, my brother will get married in a while, and my hometown will leave you."
The place where father and son live in seclusion is not far away, can you also come to have a wedding banquet?"
"I don't know your brother..." Zhu Meigui was already a little confused by the beating, and shook his head blankly.
"But you are the bride's brother." Wang Xian said with a strange smile: "Is there any reason not to go?"
"Bride?" Zhu Meigui, the second monk, scratched his head, "Who is she?"
"That's your sister Long Yao." Wang Xian said with a smile: "After a few months of this trip to Shanxi, she and my brother have been in love for a long time. They are in love with each other, and the family is happy and overjoyed..." Seeing that he could not continue, he
He coughed and said: "Anyway, the two of them have made a private decision for life. I will hire the old man on behalf of the groom's parents soon." After talking a lot, he seemed to see Zhu Meigui's face getting longer and longer.
, as if it was getting darker and darker, he asked strangely: "Is Your Highness uncomfortable?"
"Do you know who I am, Long Yao?" Zhu Meigui's face was uglier than eating Coptis chinensis, and she felt bitter from her face to her heart.
"She said she's your sister." Wang Xian said matter-of-factly: "What else could it be besides my sister? It can't be my fiancée, haha, then this would be a lot of fun..." He looked at Zhu Meigui and said
: "Scare, she can't be His Highness's fiancée, right?"
"..." Zhu Meigui gritted her teeth and clenched her fists until her knuckles turned white. It took her a long time to finally hold in two words: "No." Just like Wang Xian said, the fiancée of the dignified Prince Jin was actually with someone else.
They hooked up, he can't afford to lose this person.
"That's great." Wang Xian breathed a sigh of relief, sat next to Zhu Meigui, patted his arm and said affectionately: "From now on, we will be more intimate. Your father and son's affairs are my Wang Xian's affairs. Although I can't let him
You reset, but there are three things you can guarantee. First, I can guarantee your safety. Second, I can guarantee your comfortable life. Third..." He saw Zhu Meigui's face regaining some color before he smiled:
"Once the prince has established a firm foothold, please note that I am talking about establishing a firm foothold, not ascending to the throne. I will be responsible for clearing your father and son's name."
"Whitewash?" Zhu Meigui didn't understand.
"It means clearing the name and restoring the reputation," Wang Xian said calmly, "I don't need to say more about what this means, right?"
It was also difficult for Zhu Meigui. Just now, she felt like she was mourning, but at this moment, she felt ecstatic again. Although she tried her best not to show it, she was still young after all. She said with joy in her eyes: "How long will it take?"
"It can be as short as one or two years, and at most it can only be three or four years." Wang Xian said slowly: "If it is more than four years, I will lose you 10,000 taels of gold a year."
