In love with the ghost king

"Why hasn't the effect of the truth-telling medicine yet arrived?" Meng Shen asked dissatisfiedly as he looked at the trembling imperial physician in front of him.

Every time when Chu Yunjing was out of his mind, he asked him where the map of the Southern Kingdom was, and he would just answer: "Here is it", and never said anything else.

If it was really given to him, would Meng Shen not know?It must be that the imperial physician is not skilled in medicine and made inferior and counterfeit medicines.

The imperial physician knelt on the ground and quickly saluted, "Perhaps Mr. Chu's obsession is too deep, and it will take more time."

"Is there really a precedent for this medicine?" Meng Shen threw out what the imperial physician had said before, and became suspicious.

The imperial doctor wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, scolded his mother for a long time before stammering: "Of course it is."

"That's all, go down." Meng Shen waved his hand, feeling very headache. Although most of the forces in the court are now facing him, there are always one or two blind people who want to fight against him.

This matter of conquering the southern kingdom should be done as soon as possible.

In fact, there was another reason why he wanted the position of the king so desperately.

It is said that the last prince who was supposed to be the crown prince was Meng Qian, but the current prince designed to frame him, which made the old prince hate Meng Qian. Among the princes of the same age, there were no good candidates. In the final decision, this established the current king as the prince.

It's a pity that after the new king came to power, he refused to let go of the two thorns in the eyes of Meng Qian and his son no matter what.

Suspicion and dependence go hand in hand, while worrying about Meng Qian's great achievements, while relying on him to secure the country.

After being so entangled, only the ineffective Meng Shen vented his anger. He has not known how to restrain himself for many years and intensified his efforts. He wished to trample Meng Shen under his feet before he would give up.

Meng Qian is devoted to the country and doesn't care about the throne.But Meng Shen didn't believe in this evil, saying that he was destined was just deceiving himself and others, since he wanted it, he would fight for it.

He felt a terrible headache. At this moment, it was clear that he was only one step away, but he was not happy. He was gently rubbing the paper on the table with his fingertips, and the beating of the candle beside him also annoyed him.

In the past few days, messy scenes appeared in his mind from time to time.Sometimes I would give Chu Yunjing a folding fan, and sometimes he would give me a jade pendant, or I would enjoy fireworks with him, catch fireflies on summer nights, go to the temple to offer incense, and it is called seeking marriage...

Each pile of piles came to mind, making Meng Shen very upset.

It's just a joke.

Coincidentally, before Meng Qian left, he arranged a marriage for him. The other party was the current prime minister's daughter, Lu Yanqing. It's just that he was too tired to deal with it, so he never wanted to see her.

Prime Minister Lu is a person who understands current affairs. Originally, he only agreed to the marriage because of his friendship with Meng Qian, and Meng Qian asked him to cure his son's long-yang addiction. He was secretly unwilling in every possible way.But seeing the current direction of the wind, he actually rushed forward a few days ago, saying that the female university would not stay and wanted to marry his daughter.

Meng Shen saw that Lu Yanqing could indeed be a lady of the family, and he was worrying about Chu Yunjing's affairs, and thinking that the North Country would not have no descendants, so he agreed immediately.

Prime Minister Lu said that he had picked an auspicious day, and it happened to be these few days, so from the past few days, the general's mansion has been filled with lights and festive scenes, except for Chu Yunjing's bedroom.

"Your Highness, someone is asking to see you outside the door." A Huan walked in, looked at Meng Shen who was suffering from a headache before the case, and bent down to salute.

Meng Shen raised his eyes and saw that a year had passed, and the half-old child had grown up a lot.

Yeah, it's been a year.

"Your Highness..." Seeing that Meng Shen didn't answer, Ah Huan shouted again.

Meng Shen rubbed his temples and lazily said, "No see."

"What if I say that there is a map of the southern country?" A voice came from outside the door, cold and blunt, but the content of what he said was indeed extremely attractive.

"Mo Yang?" Meng Shen opened his eyes wide, looking in disbelief at the iron-like man in black in front of him.

Knowing that they had something to discuss, Ah Huan left first.

Mo Yang was originally an eyeliner planted in the Southern Kingdom, but he was the one who approached him at the beginning, saying that he wanted to help him win the throne, and it was half his idea to frame Meng Yu at the beginning.

It's just that after he was arrested and imprisoned, Meng Shen relied on his connections and took some effort to find him a scapegoat.

Previously, he only knew that Mo Yang and Meng Yu were at odds, and Meng Shen always thought that this was the reason for him to help him.But now that Meng Yu was in trouble, Meng Shen originally thought that Mo Yang would never stay in the North Country, but he never thought that he would not leave.

"When I came to the North Kingdom, I lied to His Highness by saying that someone brought me out. In fact, I came out by myself. The little princess of the South Kingdom gave me her map." Mo Yang's voice was faint, as if There is a kind of indifference revealed.

Meng Shen quickly suppressed the surprise in his eyes, and just continued to listen to him. He knew that this was Mo Yang's reaction to the conditions.

"I can give you the map of the Southern Kingdom, on the condition that you tell Chu Yunjing that he gave you the map—I know His Highness gave him the truth medicine, but it's just a matter of one sentence, for His Highness , but it's easy." Mo Yang still looked neither humble nor overbearing, and said softly, "Besides, the result is the same."

"You just want me to tell a lie for you?" Meng Shen asked lazily, and changed his posture again.

"nature."

"Why?"

Mo Yang pursed his lips, remained silent for a while, and finally said word by word, "I want to make Chu Yunjing's life worse than death."

"Just to say a word?" Asked this sentence, Meng Shen knew that the question was a bit stupid, and his mind was really not clear recently, so he coughed twice to cover it up, "Deal."

Mo Yang offered the map with one hand: "To show my sincerity, I will present it first. I hope His Highness will keep his promise. Yu Yan's deal is concluded, and I will never appear in His Highness's sight again."

After finishing speaking, he turned and left, cleanly and without muddling at all.

Meng Shen unfolded the parchment scroll, which was winding and winding, and it was indeed the map of the southern country that he had been longing for.

For some reason, when the map of the southern country was displayed in front of him, he was not as happy as he imagined.Meng Shen felt even more irritable, so he closed it again and put it in the book.

When his fingertips touched the spine of the book, Meng Shen thought of Chu Yunjing again. He told him to read more of that book—it also had his annotations in it.

"A Huan." Meng Shen called A Huan back with exhaustion in his voice, "How is Chu Huaining?"

He did not reveal Chu Yunjing's identity to others, so until now, he still calls him Chu Huaining.

A Huan entered the door, and said in a cold tone: "Still in the room, never left."

He paused for a moment, then glanced at Meng Shen: "Your Highness, do you want to go and see... Mr. Chu?"

Meng Shen rubbed his temples, his expression became more tired, the candlelight smudged in his eyes, but there was no softness at all.

"Come and see him." Meng Shen got up, pulled off a cloak, and said to himself, "The weather seems to be getting colder."

A Huan didn't answer, just pulled a lamp from the attendant at the door, and walked in front of Meng Shen with it.

It was already autumn, and there were still a few fireflies in the general's mansion. Meng Shen was surprised, stopped and stood for a while, until A Huan called him, and then started to walk again.
