Stunning weapon

When night fell, three exclamations came from the small building behind the Yan Kingdom's palace, and then three young eunuchs ran out and went straight to Mei Shichang's residence, reporting the news of Luo Lie's disappearance. (.)

After Mei Shichang heard the news, he couldn't help being surprised and stood up. He didn't reprimand the three young eunuchs, but asked about the situation in detail.

The three young eunuchs didn't dare to hide anything, and truthfully told what they knew.

Mei Shichang then waved his hand to signal them to retreat, and then said to the skinny old man beside him, "Brother Hu, it seems that we have underestimated Luo Lie."

The skinny old man nodded slightly, and said: "In my opinion, my lord not only underestimated Luo Lie, but also underestimated Mo Xiaochuan."

Mei Shichang nodded with deep eyebrows, and said: "That's true. Although there is no evidence that Luo Lie's escape is directly related to Mo Xiaochuan, there must be a connection. This is for sure. I used to see this child Although he is smart, he is steady and reliable, never would he have thought that he would be at this point. If he had been sent to you back then, he would not have been used by Xiliang."

"The world is unpredictable, and my lord doesn't have to be like this. My lord is dedicated to the country, so doing this is a last resort." The skinny old man said softly, showing shame, and said: "At the beginning, my lord sent Mr. Mei to be taught by this old man. I failed to discipline him well, causing him to suffer misfortune, and this old man has always felt ashamed of his lord..."

This skinny old man, called Brother Hu by Mei Shichang, was the one who went to invite Mo Xiaochuan that day. During the time of the Mei Mansion, the teacher of Young Master Mei in the mouth of the third son.

The real Young Master Mei also ran into Situ Liner on the way back after leaving the old man, and then molested Situ Liner, the two of them wrestled and fell into the river. As a result, his body sank to the bottom of the river.

Since then, Mo Xiaochuan's fate has completely changed.It can be said that if the skinny old man could have been stricter to Young Master Mei and let him get rid of those bad habits, even if Mo Xiaochuan came to this world, he would have a different fate.

Since Mei Shichang was so relieved at the beginning, he was able to hand over his only son to this old man for three years, and he didn't care about it. It can be seen that he attaches great importance to and trusts this old man. Although his son is not his own, he has raised him for ten years. In a few years, even if it is not your own, it is better than your own.

Therefore, Mei Shichang waved his hand lightly after hearing what the skinny old man said, and said, "Brother Hu, don't mention him. That useless thing." He sighed a long time, and said, "It seems that I was also caught by the old man at the beginning. Wang Xiaoyan had figured it out. This Mo Xiaochuan should have been arranged by Wang Xiaoyan. Although I don't know how he found two people with such similar appearances, I have to admire him. It's a pity that this person is very resourceful. , but he didn’t really use it for me. I don’t know where he is now, maybe the truth can only be revealed when we find him.”

"Wang Xiaoyan, this person is indeed not simple. If it weren't for the bad luck and the eunuch's body, this person will definitely be the talent to stabilize the country. It's a pity, it's a pity..." The skinny old man said with some regret.

Mei Shichang smiled and said: "Forget it, let's not talk about him for now. Now that Luo Lie is fleeing, counting the time, he has just left for half an hour. With such a short time, there is no one to stop him. There is no time to get out of the palace. Besides, he has nothing at all now, and he doesn’t know much about the difficult terrain for the public, let alone escape. Therefore, it is not difficult to catch him back.”

The skinny old man also nodded, and said: "That's true, but I don't know how to do it, my lord?"

"Brother Hu who knows me!" Mei Shichang chuckled, and said, "Luo Lie is a smart man, he must have his purpose in doing this, and he must know that he cannot escape by himself. Therefore, I think he will try his best to notify Mo Xiaochuan to come to meet him during this period. Why don't we watch the situation and catch everything?"

"Your Excellency, do you mean to arrest Mo Xiaochuan as well?" The skinny old man frowned, with a worried expression on his face, and said, "But Mo Xiaochuan's current status is extraordinary, even if he is to meet Luo Lie, he may not be sure." If he had to do it himself, he would have caught a few people. Mo Xiaochuan could have shirked it, saying that Yan Guo deliberately planted the blame. It is not that Xiliang has never used this kind of trick before. Now Xiliang wants to find a reason Come to take advantage of the chaos to rob, will it be wrong to do so?"

Mei Shichang shook his head, and said: "It is true that Mo Xiaochuan's status is not what it used to be. However, he has not yet reassured Mo Zhiyuan. At least he cannot be completely reassured about his ability. Therefore, the people around him now There is a shortage of manpower. There are not many first-class masters, let alone people in the realm of masters and saints. Therefore, this time I conclude that he will definitely come in person."

"What does your lord mean?" the skinny old man raised his eyes and asked.

Mei Shichang chuckled, and said: "As Mo Xiaochuan, even if he is captured, he may still be sent to Xiliang, but when the time comes, we can have a good fight with that Mo Zhiyuan." It’s a big deal. Now our country of Yan is certainly in an unstable situation. The third prince Wei Emperor is not happy, the second prince is dead, and the prince is seriously ill. But Xiliang is not going well. It is rumored that the uterus of the Xiliang prince caught fire. The prince of the previous dynasty also died in that fire. Although it was just a rumor, there is no wave without wind. In my opinion, the prince is probably already dead. Mo Zhiyuan is using this opportunity to deceive the world. He wants to create a Falsely, to inform the world of the death of Prince Xiliang."

"What's the reason?" The skinny old man asked a little puzzled.

Mei Shichang smiled and said: "It's actually very simple. A country cannot be without a king for a day. It has been a hundred years since the founding of Xiliang, and it is no longer what it looked like when the Taizu of Xiliang was in power. Therefore, there must be a crown prince. Even though Mo Zhiyuan is in his prime, he cannot bear the consequences of the royal family having no heir. It was for this reason that he did not dare to announce the death of the Prince of Xiliang. But it's different now. The appearance of Mo Xiaochuan has already made him feel that he has an opportunity. It's just that the time is not yet ripe. Is it true that we can't find a competent person in Xiliang for our envoy to Yan Kingdom this time? Obviously not, what Mo Zhiyuan did, in my opinion, is to give Mo Xiaochuan a chance to exercise, to make him more mature, and also to make the opportunity Mo Zhiyuan thinks more mature."

"Eh?" The skinny old man looked at Mei Shichang in surprise, lowered his eyebrows and pondered for a while, then nodded, and said, "My lord is indeed far-sighted. I'm not as good as an old man."

Mei Shichang smiled and said: "Brother Hu, don't be overly modest. Others don't know you, and I, Mei Shichang, don't know about it. You and I have been friends for decades. How can I not know my knowledge."

The skinny old man smiled, didn't say anything, then changed the subject, and said, "Then what about Luo Lie's side, what does your lord plan to do?"

Mei Shichang took a deep breath, his expression turned serious, and he said, "Wait..."
