Emperor Liang stood up with the hand of the inner servant and drove back to the inner palace. The people in the hall stood respectfully and waited for him to leave the rear to disperse one after another. The Crown Prince and Prince Yu all rushed over at this time, wanting to ask if Mei Changsu's astonishing move was serious, but Prince Jing left alone and silently.
Mei Changsu's eyes showed admiration, as if he couldn't help but praised: "I didn't expect His Royal Highness Prince Jing to be so calm and calm, he didn't say much, and he didn't do much, no matter what scene he appeared, I have never seen him lose his temper. You have the demeanor of a prince."
When the Crown Prince and Prince Yu heard it, it turned out that the talented unicorn liked this kind of thing, so they immediately swallowed all the questions in their stomachs, just greeted them lightly, and walked out in the same "calm and moderate" manner.
Mei Changsu sent the two princes away with a single word, and when he turned around, he saw Princess Nihuang nodded to him with a pursed mouth and a smile. With an expression of admiration on his face, he also responded with a helpless smile.
At this time, Xiao Jingrui led Tingsheng, Yan Yujin led the other two children and walked over together, and the uncle and son began to ask after several steps: "Brother Su, are you sure? We just confirmed that this is the case. The three children really don't know martial arts."
"It doesn't matter, who knows martial arts from birth? Jing Rui, please report to Lord Hou that these three children will also live in Xuelu."
"There's nothing wrong with this," Xiao Jingrui supported his arm with concern, "but Brother Su, let me challenge it in two days, I always feel..."
"Okay," Mei Changsu patted his hand soothingly, "don't worry, Brother Su can't practice it himself, you can still train people.
"Brother Su said it's okay, it's okay, don't frown," Yan Yujin laughed, "I'm not as handsome as I am, and if I frown, I'm even less handsome.
Everyone laughed together, and their mood became lighter. Only the three children bowed their heads and shrank, still looking terrified. Mei Changsu knew that they couldn't be completely relaxed for a while, so he didn't rush to talk to them, but made a slight gesture, indicating that the three of them would follow him and walk with the county master all the way to the outside of the palace. Nihuang came out first when she saw it. His younger brother was already standing there waiting for him, and Mei Changsu had close friends with him, so there should be no need for Prince Mu's house to prepare a car to see him off, so he didn't stay any longer and said goodbye. The carriages of Ning Guofu and Yanfu also happened to come over. Mei Changsu took the children into the car. He didn't ask any questions on the way. He just lifted the curtain to let them see the scenery of the street outside. Xiao Jingrui, who was in the same car, watched Tingsheng's face was quiet, recalling the situation when he first saw him, he gradually understood in his heart, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Mei Changsu.
Facing this questioning gaze, the Jiang Zuomeng Sect Master smiled and nodded.
Although Mei Changsu swore that he would seriously train the three children, all the people who came to investigate the situation in the next two days found that he actually lived a very relaxed and happy life, except for drawing some strange lines and dots on the ground in the courtyard. In addition to letting the children step on and practice, he spent almost all day half lying on the bench under the tree, while the one who worked so hard to demonstrate his movements and jumped around was Fei Liu.
But this is so, all the guests are still allowed to take a look at the gate of the courtyard on the grounds of "secret secrets", and then hurriedly invite them out, which adds a bit of mystery to the training process, only Xiao Jingrui compares A little special, barely able to come in and sit for a while.
But after watching it for a long time, I gradually got some different feelings. The next night, when Young Master Xiao entered the Xuelu again to greet and inquire about the situation, he was surprised to find that the speed of several children's actions had obviously increased exponentially.
"Since yesterday afternoon, they have only practiced for a day and a half, and they have made such rapid progress. To see their every move, I have to concentrate!"
"Though these children are thin, their endurance, willpower and concentration are far beyond that of ordinary adults, and they must not be underestimated." Mei Changsu directed Feiliu with gestures to adjust the pace for the trainees. , replied casually, "But no matter how good their qualifications are, they can't practice anything in two days."
"Ah?" Xiao Jingrui said in surprise, "Then what do you mean..."
"Don't worry," Mei Changsu smiled slightly, "Of course it would be foolish to rely on these children to knock down Bai Liqi alone. The only thing that can really be effective is this footwork and the sword formation commensurate with it."
"But... but..." Xiao Jingrui was even more anxious, "but no matter how delicate the coordination and footwork are, the strength that does not match will not be able to exert itself at all! Bailiqi has a strong inner strength, even if he is fighting against two swords without moving, these children Don't you move too much?"
"Jing Rui," Mei Changsu looked at him tenderly, "You have been practicing martial arts for many years, don't you know what it means to use strength to fight?"
"Using strength to fight requires skillful guidance, but these children don't know martial arts at all!"
"Of course the technique can't be practiced in a while, but if you combine this set of sword techniques, you will know the mystery when you see it. Besides, the stronger Bailiqi is, the softer his weakness will be. I already know his hood. Where is the door, that's why you dare to speak in front of the holy car. Why, can't you trust Brother Su?"
Xiao Jingrui was stunned for a moment, then quickly said: "How come. Brother Su is learning the world, Jing Rui can't believe it, just worried about what happens..."
"Don't worry, this thing is fun, but if it's really risky, I won't play it." Mei Changsu said lightly, "If you delay me a little more time, the confidence will be reduced."
Xiao Jingrui was startled, and quickly said: "Brother Su is busy with you, I'll go out right now." After speaking, he immediately retreated outside the hospital.
Seeing his figure go away, Mei Changsu flashed a strange look in his eyes, and muttered to himself, "Sure enough, it's not easy for a sincere child to deceive... Is it because you are solid and stable, and don't seek shortcuts? , so you know that the more fancy and mysterious things are, the less reliable they are?"
When Fei Liu heard him speak, he immediately flashed over and stared at him with wide eyes.
"No, he's not talking to us Fei Liu," Mei Changsu smiled softly, stroking the boy's forehead, "Fei Liu has worked hard, they also have to become more familiar and dazzling. In this way, Brother Su can scare people."
"Too slow! Fast!" Fei Liu nodded heavily. '
"That's right," Mei Changsu encouraged, "it's still too slow, we have to speed up."
Fei Liu immediately turned around and devoted himself to the task of training the three children's movements. Mei Changsu relaxed his waist and leaned back. Although his eyes were still on the field, his mind was already drifting, and it took some time before he was awakened by Fei Liu's words.
"Uncle!" Fei Liu said angrily, standing in the middle of the yard. The three children who stayed where they were and didn't dare to move because of his abrupt stop stood there in a daze, not knowing what was going on.
Mei Changsu just regained his senses, but it took a while to understand Fei Liu's meaning, and he hurriedly said, "It's been a bit late for practice today. Fei Liu took the younger brothers to sleep in the west wing, don't come out again."
"sleep?"
"Yes, go to bed, get up early tomorrow to practice, this is a good boy."
Fei Liu looked at the main room, tilted his head and thought for a while. He seemed to think it was more important to be a good child, so he took his three young apprentices into the west wing, and quickly closed the doors and windows.
Mei Changsu slowly got up and entered the main room of his daily life. As Fei Liu said, Meng Zhi was already sitting at the table, and when he saw him entering the door, he immediately stood up.
"I'm a little tired today, Brother Meng help me close the window." Mei Changsu ordered the first master of the beam, and went directly to the warm couch, covered with a thick blanket.
"You're still relaxed," Meng Zhi closed the window and turned back to sit beside his couch, staring deeply at his face, "Tell me the truth, what exactly do you want to do?"
"What did Brother Meng ask?"
"Don't pretend to be confused with me! I'm asking about the errand you took up yesterday. Although I have been cooperating with you, I have carefully observed Bailiqi's skills. It is indeed his fault that he is easily broken, but You can't even let the three kids knock him down, can you?"
"Brother Meng doesn't believe it?" Mei Changsu said with a smile, "There will be results in another day, you can look at it later."
Meng Zhi's gaze was fixed on his face as if it had been welded. It took a long time before he let out a sigh of relief. His tight shoulders relaxed, and he said solemnly, "Sure enough, Bai Liqi is yours..."
Mei Changsu rubbed his icy hands, put them to his mouth and breathed a warm breath, "You guessed wrong. Bailiqi is not my person, but the person you meet now is not the real Bailiqi. "
"what happened?"
"If you want to turn the clouds and rains in this imperial capital and achieve the goal I want, of course, you must first become an important person. No matter how much the Crown Prince and Prince Yu value me, they can't be compared to His Majesty's green eyes. When laying out this situation, I just wanted to go out on my own and make a big splash." Mei Changsu's gaze moved towards the west window, as if he wanted to penetrate the window paper and see the little child in the west wing. " Now, for the sake of Tingsheng, I changed the plan a little bit, but it feels better and more natural. It can be regarded as God helping me. "
"So, when the Beiyan embassy crossed the territory of the Jiangzuo League, you already kidnapped the real Bailiqi, and then Li Dai Taozang?"
"Yes. In fact, no matter how good the disguise technique is, there will be flaws after a long time. It's just that Bai Liqi has always lived in the prince's palace and is not often seen. He has a rough temperament and an ugly face. Everyone in the embassy is reluctant. Look at him carefully. In addition, the person who pretends to be him is extremely delicate, so these days have not revealed any flaws."
"Then Beiyan's strategy of first suppressing and then raising this time..."
"That's what they set out to do when they set off. Let that Bailiqi hide his strength first, and then the soldiers will emerge. Our people just follow the boat and act according to their plan, so they won't attract suspicion." Mei Changsu said indifferently. , "I just told a person that if they use strength to fight, if the other party doesn't make a move at all, we won't be able to make a move."
Meng Zhi nodded thoughtfully, and he already understood most of it in his heart. Based on his martial arts cultivation, and observing the initial training in the course of teaching, of course, it can be immediately seen that the attack power of this set of footwork and sword moves is not strong. But at the same time, when they are mastered, they have a very obvious function, which is to make people produce visual errors and confusion. When a person's body movement and move process make you unable to see clearly, almost all people will instinctively think that it must be an extremely delicate and powerful martial arts. And what the three children have to do at that time is to make people unable to see their movements and shots, so that when Bailiqi falls down, everyone will feel that he must have been hit by that ingenious and unrecognizable martial arts. down.
"However, it is still a bit risky to let the children come. After all, the golden eagle Chai Ming and the county master are both super-class masters, and their eyesight must be good. But for the sake of Tingsheng, it seems that this is the only way to do it." Meng Zhi sighed, "I Let’s see again tomorrow night, if their movements are well-trained, that’s all, if there are still flaws, they have to think of ways.”
"Then please, Big Brother Meng." Mei Changsu said with a smile as he put his finger to his mouth for the second time and breathed.
"Is it still cold under the blanket?" Meng Zhi held his hand, only to feel that the tentacles were cold, and he was busy rubbing to keep him warm, a pain in his heart, "You are like this before the winter solstice... Before you were not afraid of the cold at all, I once heard King Jing play a joke on you, saying that the young commander of the Red Flame Army is like a little fireman, able to ride the enemy alone for hundreds of miles in snow and night, and he won't flinch after he is captured. The state... but now, your body is injured so badly... "
"Okay," Mei Changsu withdrew his hands and pulled the blanket up, his tone was very light, as if he had just melted into the wind as soon as his lips came out, "That's why I don't like seeing you often. It's no longer the same person, you always compare like this, but it only adds to the sadness. I don't want to have any weak emotions now, please in the future... Can you not say these things... "
Meng Zhi stared at his pale face as white as snow, the iron man's eyes were red, he endured and endured, Fang whispered: "What you said, it's my mother-in-law and mother, like a girl!"
"Who dares to say that our No. 1 master in Daliang is like a woman?" Mei Changsu smiled, soothing his emotions, "But someone like Princess Nihuang, even though she is a woman, is she worse than any other man?"
Meng Zhi also laughed loudly, stood up and said, "No. We have to be careful all the time, and we can't be compared by the county master."
"Is Brother Meng leaving?"
"Yes, you also rest early. I'll come back tomorrow. If it doesn't matter, I won't show up."
Mei Changsu snorted and was ready to send them off, but Meng Zhi held them down forcibly. He is not a person who sticks to etiquette, and Xiao Xiao did not insist anymore.
Mengzhi did not reappear the next day, which shows that the three children's practice is satisfactory. After dinner, Mei Changsu gave some precautions and reassured them not to be nervous the next day, so the children returned to their rooms early.
But Xuelu didn't stay quiet like that. About an hour later, an unexpected visitor arrived late at night.
