Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 804 The Regret of Eunuch Shu
Convenience...

The simple four words sounded polite.

However, when it fell into Meng Jun's ears, it suddenly became a bit more murderous.

At this moment, he suddenly felt as if he was facing a poisonous snake that was arched, hissing and spitting, ready to attack at any time.

A burst of coolness rushed directly from the back to the top of the head, making Meng Jun's mind extremely clear. It was not yet summer, but traces of sweat had already begun to appear on his forehead.

As a result, the dissatisfaction that had just arisen in his heart was instantly thrown away, leaving only fear.

The so-called Shadow of a Famous Tree, this one in front of him is known for his ruthless methods, bold and domineering, let alone his mere commander of the imperial guards, even if the Supreme Emperor is in front of him, this one is not afraid at all.

Pretending to be calm, Meng Jun squeezed out a smile and said.

"Shu Gonggong Mingjian, it's not that I don't want to help you, but because the Supreme Emperor has ordered me to guard the gate of the palace and not let anyone in without authorization."

"As for the forgery of the imperial decree, the Supreme Emperor also said that he will continue to investigate strictly, and the people involved will be dealt with impartially. Just now, Eunuch Huai'en returned to Qianqing Palace and went to report to the emperor."

"We are all doing business for the court, you see, don't embarrass the brothers..."

Unknowingly, Meng Jun was intimidated by Shu Liang's aura, and he lowered his head while speaking. It was obvious that they were not subordinate to each other, but looking at them, they seemed to be subordinates.

I even saw carefully that there was a hint of ingratiating and begging.

However, Mr. Shu has seen this kind of attitude a lot. In the final analysis, this Commander Meng still has too little dealings with Shu Liang, and he has only heard of his reputation. Otherwise, he would know that this East Factory Governor is A piece of hard and soft hob meat.

Of course, Shu Liang wouldn't be unresponsive to the so-called stretching out his hand and not slapping people with smiling faces, Meng Jun was so low-key and petty, with a trademark smirk on his face, Shu Gong was fair.

"Understood, understood, each of us is our own master, and we all have difficulties. Commander Meng can rest assured that our family can understand."

"Eunuch Shu understands righteousness deeply, brother is grateful..."

Before he had time to think about why this East Factory admiral and eunuch who was notoriously difficult to deal with was so talkative this time, Meng Jun quickly cupped his hands and opened his mouth.

However, only halfway through the conversation, the voice from the opposite side sounded again.

"but……"

The smile on Shu Liang's face became more 'sincere', but instead of making people feel warm, it made people feel chills.

"The apprehension of the prisoner was made by His Majesty himself. Although the Supreme Emperor is benevolent, he would not be ignorant of the general situation. Commander Meng said that the Supreme Emperor would not hand him over. I don't know. Do you have an order?"

Meng Jun's expression froze, looking at Shu Liang opposite, he gradually calmed down.

He seemed to understand that this Eunuch Shu was just teasing him.

Sure enough, right after, Shu Liang's solemn voice sounded again, saying.

"Commander Meng, please be considerate. There are many people with evil intentions in this Nangong Palace. Just now there is a case of forging imperial edicts and privately conspiring with captives. How do you know if there will be another case of falsely preaching imperial orders? "

The implication is that Meng Jun is falsely preaching the imperial decree.

Meng Jun choked at these words and didn't know what to say.

It wasn't that he couldn't think of the words to refute, but that the excuse was so clumsy that he felt a little speechless for a moment.

What is this place?
Nangong!

The Supreme Emperor is sitting in the hall, under the eyes of the old man, it is not a remote village where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, who dares to falsely preach the imperial decree?

Besides, what good would it do him to falsely pass on the imperial decree? Would he offend a powerful Da Dang?
This Shu Liang, it's clear that he is pretending to be ignorant!
However, even so, he still had to be patient, and still lowered his posture and said.

"Elder-in-law was joking, how dare Meng Mou pass on the imperial decree?"

"Even if Eunuch doesn't believe in Meng, don't you even believe Eunuch Huai'en? When Eunuch Huai'en left just now, he also mentioned that the Supreme Emperor will deal with a group of people by himself. His words must be false, right?"

Meng Jun has heard about it for a long time, and the relationship between the emperor's subordinates, especially Wynn and Shu Liang, is quite good.

La Huaien came out as a shield, but he didn't believe it. This Eunuch Shu still didn't give face.

Sure enough, when Wynn was mentioned, Shu Liang's expression relaxed, but he still smiled, said.

"Of course, our family believes what Eunuch Wynn said, but when Commander Meng heard Eunuch Wynn say that the Supreme Emperor doesn't want to let him go?"

"Anyway, our family didn't hear it. Why don't you catch up with Eunuch Wynn and ask him to explain to our family?"

After these words, Meng Jun understood.

This Shu Liang made up his mind to make things difficult for him.

That being the case, there was no need for him to speak in a nice voice, and immediately straightened his slightly bent waist, and said.

"If the father-in-law insists on not believing it, there is nothing Meng can do. However, as the commander of the Imperial Army, Meng is responsible for guarding the Nangong. He dare not let anyone in without authorization. If the father-in-law wants to see the Supreme Emperor, Meng can report on his behalf. However, these Dongchang fans, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to enter Nangong."

To be honest, although these words are harsh, Meng Jun is constantly cheering himself up in his heart, telling himself that this is Nangong, at the foot of the emperor, and all the officials are watching, no matter how domineering Shu Liang is, he will never dare to break into the palace Door……

There is no way, the aura that Eunuch Shu brought to others is too heavy.

At this time, Meng Jun was actually suffering and couldn't tell. If possible, he really didn't want to conflict with Shu Liang.

However, the Supreme Emperor issued a death order again, and he must guard the palace gate, and, looking at it, there was no room for change.

As someone who was pushed out by Xungui to protect the Supreme Emperor, at a time like this, he could go up if he didn't.

Of course, despite this, Meng Jun still left a small mouth in his words, which means that if you really want someone, you can go to see the Supreme Emperor yourself, and don't make trouble so that everyone can't come down.

However, soon Meng Jun found out that he still underestimated Shu Liang, the admiral and eunuch of the East Factory, who was really crazy and denied his relatives.

Moreover, when Meng Jun spoke softly, Shu Liang was still polite, but now his attitude became tough, even if there was room for change, Shu Liang's expression suddenly sank, and he said coldly.

"There's no need to meet the Supreme Emperor, it's a trivial matter, don't bother his old man."

"However, our family also puts the words here. The emperor has issued an order. Our family must take away the group of people who accompanied the emperor to the spring hunting."

"If Commander Meng obstructs, our family doesn't mind, we will take Commander Meng away together."

"As for breaking into the palace gate..."

Shu Liang smiled slightly and said.

"Our family is ordered by the Holy Order to arrest the important criminals. Don't say it is the Nangong Palace, which is the inner palace. With His Majesty's decree, our family can go there too!"

"Go away!"

No one expected that Shu Liang, who was always looking good at business and thoughtfulness just now, would suddenly change his attitude, and be so domineering in front of so many people.

Sensing the strange gaze of the guard at the side, Meng Jun felt ashamed and angry.

After all, he is also a child of a noble family, and he is usually well-spoken wherever he goes, but he never thought that he would be scolded like this by an eunuch today.

Even if this person is the well-known Admiral of the East Factory, he felt that he couldn't hold back his face, so his face darkened immediately, and said.

"Since Mr. Shu insists on this, then Meng can only be offended. Come!"

Following Meng Jun's order, two teams of guards from the Imperial Guard rushed out of the Nangong.

Although the Habayashi Guard is newly established, it is a serious guard after all, and, strictly speaking, it belongs to the military establishment.

Once there is a conflict, the use of force is not something Dongchang Fanzi, who can only use short sticks as weapons, can match.

This is also where Meng Jun's confidence lies!
However, seeing this situation, not only did Shu Liang not feel scared, but a sneer appeared on his face, said.

"Commander Meng, our family advises you to think it through. This time our family is here, but according to His Majesty's orders, what you are doing now is rebelling against the order!"

After saying this, a trace of hesitation flashed across Meng Jun's face, but he quickly calmed down.

Things have come to this point, and it is obviously impossible to give way now.

Arching his hands, Meng Jun also said in a businesslike manner.

"Mr. Shu's words are serious, and Meng still said the same thing. Guarding the palace is a duty, and I dare not make mistakes. If my father-in-law wants to meet, Meng can pass it on for me. But if I want to break into the palace and arrest people, please forgive me for not being afraid. Let go!"

"So, Commander Meng is determined to resist the order?"

Shu Liang squinted his eyes, also showing an attitude of not giving an inch.

Thus, in front of the Nangong Gate, a confrontation had already begun, and the air seemed to be filled with tension.

"Let's say it again. Today, our family is here on order to arrest important criminals. Anyone who obstructs them will be regarded as resisting the order. Commander Meng, our family will ask again for the last time, will you let it go or not?"

Shu Liang emphasized the pronunciation of the last few words, obviously, it was already an ultimatum.

Meng Jun really wanted to straighten his back and say that he would not give in, but the so-called soft ones are afraid of hard ones, hard ones are afraid of horizontal ones, horizontal ones are afraid of being dumbfounded, and dumb ones are afraid of death.

Obviously, the governor of the East Factory in front of him is the one who wants to die.

From his tone and demeanor, Meng Jun had no doubt that as long as he dared to refuse categorically, the other party would definitely lead someone into the palace without hesitation.

If it really gets to that point, he doesn't know what will happen to Shu Liang, but he must have nothing good to eat.

However, it is impossible to forcibly stop them, nor is it possible to let them go. Commander Meng felt very embarrassed for a while.

After thinking for a while, he finally managed to find a reason, said.

"Father-in-law, the duty of the forbidden army is to guard the palace. Meng knows that the father-in-law is also performing official duties, but without seeing the clear order, how dare Meng let people into the palace without authorization?"

"If Eunuch Shu really wants to bring someone into the palace to lock up the thief, please come here with His Majesty's edict. Eunuch can rest assured that as long as His Majesty's edict comes, Meng will definitely get out of the way immediately and try his best to cooperate with Eunuch's official duties."

These words are actually deceitful, after all, the imperial decree of the emperor has already been passed to the court, it is impossible to make a fake.

At this moment, Meng Jun is studying this joint carefully. He just wants to temporarily let Shu Liang retreat and delay the time. Although it is said that it is a temporary solution, but not the root cause, this is already the best method that Commander Meng can think of.

What's more, he has done everything that should be done. If Shu Liang really came with the imperial decree written by the emperor himself, he would not really disobey the imperial decree. Even if he came in front of the Supreme Emperor, he would have an explanation.

Unexpectedly, after hearing these words, Shu Liang became even more angry, said.

"According to Commander Meng, it's our family who falsely preached the imperial decree?"

Meng Jun said inwardly that he was not good, and was about to explain a few words, but Shu Liang continued to sneer.

"Your Majesty's order has already been passed down. Even if Commander Meng is ignorant, he should know that our family's holy order is true. Commander Meng is here to stop our family. Is there a clear order?"

"Furthermore, the emperor has already issued an imperial decree. From then on, all the edicts in the Nangong Palace must be written by the Supreme Emperor himself. Since Commander Meng said that the Supreme Emperor asked you to stop here, why didn't you come with the decree?"

While talking, Shu Liang also seemed a little anxious, looking at Meng Jundao.

"Commander Meng also said that we each do our duty. Since you said our family made things difficult for you, then our family will take a step back. As long as Commander Meng shows the emperor's edict to prevent our family from entering the Nangong Palace, our family will immediately How about going back?"

Ah this...

Meng Jun didn't expect that he would be reversed by the opponent, and he lost his mind for a while.

Naturally, he didn't have a Mingzhao, so the Supreme Emperor casually ordered, how could he dare to ask for a Mingzhao under the situation at that time?
But he was the one who opened the conversation, and if he couldn't get it out at this time, it would be a mistake, so for a while, Meng Jun didn't know what to do.

Seeing this situation, Shu Liang pressed forward step by step, and said.

"Looks like it's gone?"

"Since this is the case, Commander Meng shouldn't waste time here, get out of the way quickly, otherwise, you won't be able to afford to prevent our family from arresting the important criminal!"

"Come on, come with our house to get someone!"

While talking, Shu Liang didn't give Meng Jun any time to react, and started to rush into the Nangong with his people.

A group of imperial guards stood at the gate of Nangong, facing a group of Dongchang fans approaching step by step, they did not dare to act without authorization, so they had to retreat, and at the same time, they all turned their attention to their leader.

However, Meng Jun himself was only a child of a noble family, and had never been on a battlefield, so naturally he was less decisive. Faced with this situation, he hesitated for a long time, and did not dare to speak rashly to give orders under the embarrassment.

Seeing that Shu Liang brought a group of followers and was about to break into the palace gate, a voice suddenly came from a distance.

"Hold on, Mr. Shu."

The sound came from far to near, and everyone followed the sound, and saw two people, an old man and a young man, walking quickly from a distance. The old man was wearing a crimson crane men's suit, and he was out of breath from running, but he was still beaten by the young man. People pull forward.

The person who spoke was the young man.

"Little Grandpa? Great Uncle?"

Seeing the figures of the two, Meng Jun was surprised and delighted at the same time, and immediately called out.

Although Meng Jun didn't know what they were here for, he at least knew that Zhu Yi belonged to the Supreme Emperor. If that was the case, there was a high probability that this little prince was here to help him.

What's more, the situation has developed to this point, and it is impossible to get worse.

On the contrary, upon hearing this voice, the steps that Shu Liang had already taken also stopped in mid-air.

A flash of regret quickly flashed in his eyes. After all, Eunuch Shu didn't take this step forward. Instead, he stopped in place and looked at the two people who came in a hurry from a distance...
