Chapter 167
A flash of surprise flashed in Mu Ze's eyes, and then he actually smiled.

"Well, Liangchen's intuition has always been very sensitive, I trust your intuition."

Meng Liangchen felt that he didn't seem to take it seriously, so he said very seriously: "Trust me! What I said is true! If you accept him, you will definitely not regret it in the future, and it will be of great use!"

joke!That's the future power minister!

Seeing that the little girl was in a hurry, Mu Ze nodded, "Okay, I know."

Meng Liangchen looked at him in surprise: "You know? Do you know him?"

Mu Ze replied: "He has been by Sanmei's side for so long, of course I have seen him." As if thinking of something, he continued: "Some people are not as simple as they appear on the surface. As for others, You'll know it later."

Meng Liangchen looked at him suspiciously, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Do you know something?"

Mu Ze smiled, and said, "There is indeed a story about Su Jiu, so I won't tell you now."

Meng Liangchen's appetite was whetted, so he wanted to find out: "Is he really not an ordinary person? His identity?"

Mu Ze shook his head, and said: "I can't tell you yet, his identity is a bit special, and if I say it, I'm afraid it will lead to death."

Meng Liangchen opened his mouth in surprise, as if he understood why Su Jiu stayed by Lianyi's side and never left.

Perhaps it is Ripple's identity that can bring him some convenience or a hidden shelter.

But wouldn't the ripples be a little dangerous?But since Su Jiu stayed by Lianyi's side for so long and was safe and sound, it seems that her worries may be unnecessary.

On the second day in the court hall, Mu Yun stood at the front with a very ugly face, exuding a murderous aura all over his body, the atmosphere in the hall was a little tense, and the ministers seemed to feel this strange atmosphere, They all looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to vent their anger.

Sitting on the dragon chair, the emperor looked a little unhappy.

"Yun'er, how is Marquis Meng doing now?"

Mu Yun's face seemed to be covered by ice, and there was a bit of coldness when he spoke.

"Father, Marquis Meng died last night!"

As soon as Mu Yun's words came out, the court seemed to explode, and the faces of the ministers showed disbelief, and the voices of all kinds of discussions and inquiries suddenly drowned out the entire hall.

Xu Xiang stood at the front, looking particularly quiet, and compared with other ministers, he seemed a little different.

It's just that in this situation, no one pays attention to this.

Although the main hall seemed a bit noisy, the ministers did not dare to speak too loudly. Only when they felt the air-conditioning emanating from the Second Prince did they understand why.

At this moment, an old military general standing in front of the group of officials stood up from the seat given to him by the emperor. Although he was old, he still had a murderous look all over him. With a look of grief, he bowed to the emperor.

"I beg the emperor to order a thorough investigation into Menghou's death! Menghou was murdered in prison, it must be a real spy who wanted to kill people without conclusive evidence, so that there is no evidence for the treason, and there is no way to investigate! Let Menghou die unjustly!"

"Yeah! Menghou was wronged! I beg the emperor to investigate thoroughly! Don't let Menghou go away with injustice! Give Menghou a name!"

For a moment, there was a echoing voice in the hall: "I beg the emperor to investigate thoroughly!"

But at this time, some civil servants also questioned in a low voice: "Your Majesty, although Menghou is dead, it is possible that he was indeed killed by a real spy, but it cannot be concluded that he wants this matter to be unverifiable. Could it be that the other party saw that the matter was brought to light?" , Meng Hou was arrested, afraid that Meng Hou would drag other people out and move their other cards?"

As soon as this person said this, the hall was once again silent, and an elderly minister blew his beard and stared angrily, his face turned red and he looked at the person who spoke softly.

Sure enough, it's from the civil servant's side!

"You! You are talking nonsense! Meng Hou has gone, and you still want to insult his reputation like this! What are your intentions!"

The official standing on the old minister's side also said angrily: "Mr. Meng has always been upright and upright! He has never formed cliques or entered into grievances with others, and he is the pillar of our Great Mu Kingdom! How can you say such a ridiculous theory! "

The one who spoke in a low voice didn't expect that he just put forward his own idea, and was attacked by several people one after another, he hesitated for a while and dared not speak any more.

"Wei Chen, I'm just speaking from the bottom of my heart, without any selfishness, and I put the overall situation first!"

Although he put a fair and just hat on himself in a high-sounding way, there are many ministers who don't buy it.

At this time, the emperor looked at Xu Xiang who had not spoken since the last court.

"Xu Aiqing, do you have any other opinions?"

When Xu Xiang was called, he stepped forward and bowed to the emperor.

"Back to the emperor, I am deeply saddened by the death of Menghou. Although the matter has not yet been concluded, but now everyone is gone, it is useless to care about other things. There is no proof of death. I am afraid that no matter how many people there are, nothing can be found out. How about Just let Menghou go to the earth to rest in peace, the emperor's grace is mighty, and it will be considered as the whole of Menghou's famous name in this life."

The old military general and veteran minister had not been in court for many years, and he came out of the mountain out of anger because of Menghou's affairs.

His face was ugly and serious, and he stared closely at Xu Xiang who was speaking: "I think Mr. Xu said so, he is trying to play into the enemy's arms! The death of Menghou must be another conspiracy by the spies of the empire. If the matter of Menghou is dismissed in this way, and the case is closed hastily, the enemy will probably imprison the pillars of my Damu one by one in the next attack, so who knows if the next one will be the turn of the old minister!"

The veteran is already the elder of the three dynasties in the court, and he is also a prince. No one in the court dares to confront him easily.

What's more, it's in the court, and it's such a sensitive period.

For a moment, no one in the hall dared to speak anymore.

The emperor glanced at the crowd in the hall, coughed, and finally opened his mouth.

"Don't get angry, the old prince. The body is the most important thing. I am also very sad about the matter of Menghou. Although what Xu Xiang said is reasonable, I think what the old prince said is more reasonable. I deeply agree. Menghou was in court before his death. The various performances in the hall are all acts of loyalty, I will not let him go away with a wrong, and I will let Yun'er find out the cause of death, and return Meng Hou's name."

He paused for a moment, and then said: "As for the official position of Menghou, let's not move it for now, and keep all the positions of Menghou for the time being. As for the cause of Menghou's death, there is no need to announce it to the outside world until the case is settled. Make an announcement."

This is to preserve Meng De's reputation.

With tears in his old eyes, the old prince bowed tremblingly to the emperor.

"Your majesty is wise! This veteran thanked Long En on behalf of Marquis Meng!"
