Meng Xiang blew his beard and glared at the young priest with hatred: "How many people have you arrested in total?"
Gu Fenglin said: "Look."
The guards of the Priest's Palace led out people one after another from the courtyard.
There are men, women, and children. These people look very ordinary in appearance and dress. They are inconspicuous in a crowd and are the kind of people who will be forgotten once they see them.
But the bloodstains on their bodies and their eyes showed that they definitely belonged to the extremely vicious type.
"Probably dozens, no more. Others depend on luck."
After Gu Fenglin said this, he said goodbye to Meng Xiang: "It's getting late, and my wife is still waiting for me to go home for supper. Say goodbye."
Seeing that he was going to take everyone away, Meng Xiang was very anxious: "Are you going to eat alone? No, at least let me join the trial."
Gu Fenglin smiled and said: "Yes, but before that, I would like to ask Prime Minister Meng to report to His Majesty and ask the Royal Forest Army to participate in the search. My suggestion is to impose martial law throughout the city and search from house to house."
Meng Xiang disagreed: "That will cause instability in people's hearts!"
Gu Fenglin laughed, said nothing, and walked away with the others.
Meng Xiang felt that he was despised again, so he thought of the political differences between the two.
What he wants is to negotiate peace and recuperate, not to fight.
Gu Fenglin wanted to be radical and wanted to fight.
Meng Xiang turned around and saw Meng San and others all looking at him, and said angrily: "What are you looking at? Why don't you go back to arrest people?"
Fortunately, there are still several spies in the house, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to get out of this tone.
Meng San cautiously asked: "Aren't you going to let the Royal Forest Army search the whole city?"
Meng Xiang glared at him angrily, knowing that he still had to enter the palace.
Otherwise, these few bastards who came from nowhere would have stirred up such a big storm, and if they were allowed to do whatever they wanted, we would never know how big of a trouble would happen in the future.
Just thinking of Gu Fenglin's appearance and tone before leaving, he couldn't help but feel angry.
In Prime Minister Meng's Mansion.
Aunt Yang carried a small bundle and walked out with her head buried in her chest.
As soon as I reached the garden gate, I saw many guards rushing towards me.
So he quickly retreated and rushed to the main room where Mrs. Meng lived.
Everything was as usual, the main house was quiet, and there were lights on the corridor and in the house.
This is a habit that Mrs. Meng has developed over the years, so that Prime Minister Meng can see clearly when he returns to the backyard after doing business at night.
Nanny Yang tied the bundle around her waist, went into the bedroom with her head raised, and sent the maid on night watch down: "I'll keep watch."
The maid did not doubt his presence and whispered: "Madam has a cough."
Aunt Yang raised the curtain and saw in the darkness, Mrs. Meng, lying on the bed with her back to her, motionless.
Then he clenched the sharp knife in his hand, leaned over gently, and whispered: "Madam?"
Mrs. Meng had no reaction.
The torches outside were getting closer and closer, and a trace of cruelty flashed in Nanny Yang's eyes. She reached out and grabbed Mrs. Meng's collar tightly, and said loudly: "Madam, wake up!"
Mrs. Meng rolled over, reached out with her hand like lightning, accurately grasped the hand holding her knife, and then pounced on her, using her weight to flip her to the ground and suppress her tightly.
Aunt Yang took a closer look and saw that Mrs. Meng was there again. She was actually an attractive and healthy woman.
At the same time, a large number of people poured in inside and outside the house.
The chief steward of the Meng Mansion said in a cold voice: "You ungrateful dog! Your master has raised you for decades and treated you like a sister, but you actually eat him inside and out, and you are so cruel that you murder your master! Where is your conscience? Has it been eaten by a dog?"
