Forced to take the love route by a scumbag villain

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner, whether it is Meng Fan and Guan Yan's palace coup plan, or Meng Xing and Wen Rulan's counterattack plan.

As a qualified spy, Meng Xing turned around and relayed the information to Wen Rulan verbatim whenever he got information from Meng Fan. Moreover, in addition to relaying the information exactly as it was, Meng Xing also added his own exclusive guess every time.

Meng Xing's guesses were always surprisingly accurate. Wen Rulan sent someone to follow his guesses and found traces of Meng Fan and others' activities. Wen Rulan didn't ask much about this almost eerie accuracy. Since the conversation on the night of the 8th, he had strictly adhered to the boundaries between monarch and ministers, and tried not to do anything that exceeded the rules to scare Meng Xing.

Although this was difficult to do, almost every time he saw this man, he couldn't help but want to get close and touch him. But no matter how difficult it is, it is still better than seeing Meng Xing say in that sad tone that he is just a plaything that can be bullied at will.

The two of them got along like normal monarchs and ministers. Without Wen Rulan's teasing anytime and anywhere, Meng Xing felt much more at ease. He could finally concentrate on his tasks.

Time flies and August 10th arrives.

After the morning court, Meng Xing extended an invitation to Wen Rulan in front of the courtiers who had not completely dispersed: "Prime Minister, are you free this afternoon? I have a new box of good tea, and I would like to invite the Prime Minister to taste it together. "

Hearing this, Meng Fan and Guan Yan, who were walking out, slowed down and secretly observed Wen Rulan's reaction. Although according to Wen Rulan's usual preferences, he would not refuse such an invitation, but they were afraid. There is an accident, what if he just doesn't want to drink tea today?

Fortunately, there was no such surprise, and Wen Rulan accepted the invitation with a smile.

When they heard the reply, Meng Fan and Guan Yan turned around and glanced at where Meng Xing and Wen Rulan were standing.

Meng Xing noticed the gazes of the two people. While continuing to talk to Wen Rulan, he secretly winked at the two people to indicate that the plan was going well.

Meng Fan and Guan Yan felt relieved and left. As soon as they left, Meng Xing blinked at the man standing in front of him and whispered: "They took the bait."

In fact, everyone was almost gone, so there was no need to speak in a low voice, but Wen Rulan accompanied Meng Xing and lowered her voice, whispering: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I won't let these two big fish escape."

Meng Xing nodded, and then wandered around the palace for a while as usual. In the afternoon, around Shen time, he went to sit in the pavilion.

Wen Rulan came to the appointment on time. His attitude seemed a little more contemptuous than yesterday, and his salute was not very serious and very perfunctory.

It's not because his attitude towards Meng Xing has changed again, but because this perfunctory attitude is what he should have as a powerful minister, and he wants to put on a show for others.

Although the imperial palace is basically under Wen Rulan's control, Wen Rulan's control of this huge palace is not perfect. Just like right now, one of the young eunuchs accompanying Meng Xing is disguised as King Qi's confidant.

Meng Xing knew about this fake eunuch because Meng Fan arranged this fake eunuch in the name of helping him. What to do? Of course he poisoned Wen Rulan.

Meng Fan firmly believed that his elder brother was a fool, so he didn't think Meng Xing could accomplish anything. Naturally, he couldn't leave such an important task as poisoning to him.

Furthermore, he still couldn't rest assured as to which stool Meng Xing's butt was sitting on. When he did nothing, he was still a prince, and Wen Rulan had no excuse to touch him for the time being. And once tonight's action begins, there will be no turning back. If he loses, then he will be a traitor, and even if he is of royal blood, he will not be able to escape death.

Therefore, there must be no mistakes in the entire action plan this time. He does not believe in Meng Xing's ability, nor does he believe in Meng Xing's position. He must have subordinates he trusts and see Wen Rulan poisoned with his own eyes before he can continue. One step action.

That's why Meng Xing and Wen Rulan discussed and staged this scene. In cooperation with Meng Fan's plan, they drank the poisoned cup of tea that had been secretly mixed by Wen Rulan's people, making Meng Fan mistakenly think that Wen Rulan was really poisoned. , and will die of poison after five hours.

Only in this way will Meng Fan and Guan Yan take action, and Wen Rulan will have an excuse to take them down.

"Prime Minister, this is the top-grade Silver Needle tea produced in Junshan. Each tea leaf is the first bud of spring tea. It is bright in color and has the reputation of gold inlaid with jade. It tastes sweet and refreshing. I just got this tea. , so I thought that I must let the Prime Minister have a try." Meng Xing performed according to the script he had planned.

Wen Rulan did the same. He nodded in agreement and said, "I have also heard that ordinary Silver Needle tea is easy to buy, but the yield of the top and tenderest bud tips is too rare. It has a price but no market. Today, I am grateful for your Majesty's gift. I am honored to taste this fine tea."

"The Prime Minister handles government affairs every day, and he has worked hard and achieved great results. I also want to use this tea to express my condolences to the Prime Minister." Meng Xing said it in a decent way.

Wen Rulan smiled and responded a few more words. When the polite words were almost finished, Meng Xing ordered the palace people to bring tea sets to make tea.

When giving the order, he winked at the fake eunuch sent by the King of Qi. The fake eunuch understood what he was saying. When the palace people brought the tea set to the pavilion, he stepped forward, took the tea set from the palace people, and then made the tea himself. Bring it to Meng Xing and Wen Rulan.

This so-called poisoning was not actually in the tea, because as the party who invited people to taste tea, it would be too weird for Meng Xing not to drink it. Meng Fan would make Wen Rulan suspicious, so he specially arranged for his subordinates to poison the tea cup. superior.

As for which of the two almost identical teacups is poisonous, it is up to the fake eunuch to tell the difference. He found the secret mark on the teacup and after identifying the poisonous teacup, he placed the non-poisonous cup in front of Meng Xing and the poisonous cup in front of Wen Rulan in order.

Although the two cups were actually not poisonous, this tea set had already been replaced by Wen Rulan's people.

But Meng Xing also pretended to look nervous and apprehensive, which was in line with his character. After all, he was a little emperor who had never done anything big. It's the first time you poison someone, so it's not normal to be calm and composed.

The fake eunuch had no doubts about him, and even had a little disgust in his eyes. Sure enough, the master of his family was the one who should sit on the throne. Looking at His Majesty's appearance, he was so nervous and embarrassed.

The poison had already been placed, and Wen Rulan only waited for the tea to be brewed before drinking it. Just waiting for this has been a long time.

The process of brewing tea is very particular, including the brewing time and the height at which the tea is poured. This cup of tea already has a stick of incense after brewing, but it is not brewed yet.

After finally brewing it, you still can’t drink it. Tasting tea is not just about tasting it with your mouth. Your eyes and nose also need to evaluate the color and aroma of the tea.

Meng Xing didn't understand this, and he didn't know what the meaning of this complicated procedure was. He usually drank tea like cow's milk, but Wen Rulan understood. He looked at the brewed tea leaves, talked about it, and then smelled the tea. Xiang, talked loudly again.

After several times, the fake eunuch was waiting for him. Just when he thought that Wen Rulan was going to drink the cup of poisonous tea and his master's plan was about to succeed, Wen Rulan suddenly put down the tea cup and started citing scriptures.

He couldn't help but make another expression to Meng Xing, signaling Meng Xing to quickly urge Wen Rulan to drink the tea.

Meng Xing received the signal, but did not follow it. Instead, he stopped Wen Rulan when she was finally about to pick up the tea and drink it.

"Prime Minister, wait a moment." As he said this, he directly held Wen Rulan's wrist and stopped the tea cup he had put to his mouth in mid-air.

A look of shock and anger appeared on the fake eunuch's face. What does the little emperor mean? Regret?

Wen Rulan was also a little surprised. She didn't understand why Meng Xing stopped her at this time. It was obvious that the big fish was about to take the bait. If you don't drink this cup of tea, then the two fish that were about to bite the hook would have to withdraw again and try to find them again. It's difficult to hold someone accountable.

Of course Meng Xing knew this, but...he thought of the final ending of the previous dream, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness.

Wen Rulan sent someone to replace the poisoned tea set, but what if something unexpected happened and the replacement failed?

The possibility of such an accident is extremely small, Wen Rulan has always acted safely. But Zhang Ji's bullet that missed 90 degrees was less likely to hit Wen Rulan after repeatedly rebounding, but it still happened.

The system's prediction is: On August 8, Wen Rulan died of a palace incident.

This is a very general term. It is generally understood that someone died in a military fight during a palace incident, or an unexpected cold arrow on the battlefield. However, the poisoning part is actually also included in the palace incident.

So Meng Xing had to verify. He wanted to confirm that the cup of tea in Wen Rulan's hand was really not poisonous. The verification method is actually very simple. He only needs to open the system interface and take a look.

Meng Xing opened it and saw the item ID of the cup of tea: a cup of brewed Silver Needle Tea. Item introduction: After taking it, you will quench your thirst and achieve a certain degree of refreshment.

Meng Xing felt relieved now. He released his fingers from holding Wen Rulan's wrist and made up a random reason for his actions just now: "Be careful of the burn."

Although this cup of tea has long since become less hot and even a little cold during the long tasting process.

The fake eunuch was speechless about this reason, but Wen Rulan was not. He was vaguely aware of some of the reasons why Meng Xing stopped him from drinking. However, he himself did not have such worries because he was absolutely confident in his ability to employ people. He just adjusted the package. If you can't even do this, then you won't be hired by him at all.

Although Meng Xing's worry was not necessary, Wen Rulan still smiled happily. His Majesty was worried about him.

It seemed that he was right to choose to take a step back. Pushing too hard would cause Meng Xing to resist. If he took a step back, Meng Xing would take another step on his own.

His Majesty is willing to accept soft words rather than tough ones. As long as he continues to show weakness, Meng Xing will be trapped unconsciously. Wen Rulan carefully evaluated the cup of tea while thinking about a plan to deal with Meng Xing.

He didn't drink quickly, but the fake eunuch standing aside couldn't help but have joy in his eyes. The poison of this poisonous spider is extremely overbearing and has no cure, and it only requires a very small dose to be fatal. His master's great cause has been half accomplished!

He suppressed his eagerness to go back and tell King Qi the good news, and waited for Wen Rulan to finish the cup of tea. Today's tea tasting party was over, and when Wen Rulan said goodbye and left, he finally appeared in front of Meng Xing. Asking for instructions: "Your Majesty, I will go back and report to His Highness the King of Qi to prepare for action tonight."

Meng Xing nodded in agreement. He sat at the stone table with his chin propped up, watching the fake eunuch's back as he hurriedly left, but his thoughts were not on him.

He thought over and over in his mind about the details of today's palace coup. The poisoning link had been destroyed. All that was left was that at 3:00 pm, Meng Fan and Guan Yan would lead the Huben army into the city from the Zhuque Gate and go straight to the palace. And Wen Rulan had already secretly dispatched the imperial army and set up ambushes along the way.

The enemy is overt and we are covert, and the imperial army guarding the imperial city is superior to the opponent in terms of equipment and strength. The odds of winning are huge. Logically speaking, it is almost impossible to fail.

But Meng Xing was still a little uneasy, and he couldn't tell whether this uneasiness was a premonition or a simple misunderstanding.

The more he thought about it, the more upset Meng Xing became. He decided to find someone. Only that person could relieve his anxiety at the moment.

Meng Xing stepped into the imperial study room again. When he saw Wen Rulan, who was processing official documents at the desk as usual, the restless annoyance in his heart was suddenly dispersed.

He even breathed a sigh of relief, and his frown became more relaxed.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" Wen Rulan noticed the change in Meng Xing's demeanor. As he asked, he wanted to stand up and salute to greet him.

But Meng Xing waved his hand to stop him, and he casually replied: "It's nothing."

Then he walked to Wen Rulan by himself, and asked the palace servants to bring him a stool, and he sat down next to Wen Rulan.

Wen Rulan was confused by what he was doing. He said again: "Your Majesty?"

"Yes." Meng Xing responded. He supported his chin with his hand, looked at Wen Rulan and said, "Prime Minister, continue your work. Don't worry about me. I just want to stay here."

Stay here? Wen Rulan glanced at Meng Xing. He noticed that although the other person was more relaxed, he still had a troubled look on his face. His thoughts changed and he probably knew why Meng Xing was so upset.

"Is Your Majesty worried about tonight?" Wen Rulan asked.

Meng Xing did not answer, but his attitude was regarded as acquiescence.

Wen Rulan continued: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will take care of everything."

As he spoke, he wanted to stretch out his hand to smooth Meng Xing's wrinkled brows, but stopped midway, and then retracted his hand as if nothing had happened.

Meng Xing saw all this and was slightly touched in his heart. Although Wen Rulan is a real scumbag, in terms of her attitude towards herself, perhaps there is no one in the world who cares more about herself than Wen Rulan.

He knew Wen Rulan's undercurrent of desire for him, and he also knew why the other party suppressed and endured this desire. It was just because of a cruel trick he had improvised that day.

Even his acting skills were not very good, even a little clumsy, but Wen Rulan was so caught up in it that he couldn't see through it.

Although Meng Xing couldn't respond to this feeling, after all...he could work hard to give Wen Rulan a good ending.

"Prime Minister, are you going to personally lead the troops tonight?" Meng Xing asked.

"That's the plan." Wen Rulan nodded.

Although Meng Fan and Guan Yan asked Meng Xing to find an excuse to keep Wen Rulan in the palace to facilitate their monitoring and actions, Wen Rulan only needed to make an illusion that she was indeed staying in the palace. When the time came, she would appear in person at Zhuque. In front of Meng Fan and others who entered the city, he could not only sit in command, but also give Meng Fan and others unexpected surprises, or shocks. Therefore, Wen Rulan was prepared to personally lead the troops to deal with tonight's palace incident.

But Meng Xing suddenly grabbed his sleeve and said, "Prime Minister, please stay with me tonight."

He looked serious and emphasized every word: "Don't leave me even one step."

Wen Rulan was startled, and then his heart began to beat uncontrollably. His long-suppressed emotions broke through the shackles of reason, and also broke through the line between monarch and subject that he had been trying so hard to maintain.

He held Meng Xing's hand firmly with his five fingers and said in a hoarse voice, "Okay."

The moment his fingers touched, Meng Xing felt emotions and desires that were more turbulent and persistent than before.

Meng Xing: "..."

Although the mind-reading skill is useful, it is indeed very distressing at times. He really doesn't want to hear the bad desires in Wen Rulan's heart!

Meng Xing tried to pull his hand back, but he didn't.

That's all, it's the last night anyway. Meng Xing thought to himself, and then Wen Rulan casually grabbed his hand and wouldn't let go.
