The world of film and television begins with Ning'an as a dream

But before he could get angry, Princess Nihuang spoke first, "I know where to find children who have never practiced before? There are many in Yeyouting!"

Chapter 104: Concubine Hui is Humiliated

Mei Changsu seemed to have just thought of this, and immediately nodded in agreement and said, "Children in Yeyouting are indeed more suitable than those outside, but I don't know if His Majesty will allow it."

Emperor Liang watched the two people's performance and always felt that Nihuang and Mei Changsu were playing himself, but he also hoped that what they said was true.

After all, he couldn't leave the hope of defeating Bailiqi to Wang Yue. Even if Wang Yue really defeated Bailiqi, it would be the prestige of the Yue people, and it would also make Daliang seem too insignificant.

He weighed the pros and cons and thought he could give it a try, but out of suspicion, he turned his head to his confidant Meng Zhi and asked, "Lord Meng, what do you think?"

Meng Zhi didn't expect that Emperor Liang would actually ask for his opinion, just as Mei Changsu guessed. He pretended to ponder for a moment, then said very carefully, "Your Majesty, you can give it a try. After all, there are only three criminal slaves.

It would be even better if we win, as it would show that we in Daliang are full of talented people, and any two or three criminal slaves have the potential to become masters.

Even if we lose, it is just a shame for the Jiangzuo League because they are not as skilled as others, and it has nothing to do with us in Daliang.

Moreover, with the strength of Jiangzuo League in the martial arts world, even if we lose, it won’t be too embarrassing, and we can also use the power of the martial arts world to rub off on Bailiqi’s arrogance.”

Emperor Liang felt that what Meng Zhi said made sense. No matter what conspiracy Mei Changsu and Nihuang had, as long as the person chosen was his, there would be no problem.

Having made up his mind, he turned sideways to look at Eunuch Gao and said, "In that case, go get someone to call over a few capable criminal slaves from the Yeyou Court."

After he finished speaking, he turned to the Northern Yan envoys sitting below and said, "Then let's have another competition in five days."

How could Meng Zhi hand this job over to someone else? Wouldn't that ruin Mei Changsu's plan? He immediately whispered to Emperor Liang, "Your Majesty, if you want to learn martial arts, you need to have a strong foundation. Ordinary people are useless. Let me go."

Seeing Meng Zhi so enthusiastic, Emperor Liang couldn't help but become suspicious again, but when he turned around and met Meng Zhi's silly expression, he felt that he was too suspicious. Meng Zhi had been honest and obedient for so many years and had never disobeyed him. So he waved his hand and let Meng Zhi go.

After Meng Zhi left, the hall became awkward and one could almost hear one's breathing in the hall.

Wang Yue enjoyed watching the show very much, but he had to pretend to be very serious at this time, which made his face flush.

Emperor Liang's eyes had been scanning the situation below, and of course he noticed Wang Yue's expression. He suddenly laughed and asked curiously, "General Wang, is my Daliang wine delicious?"

Wang Yue saw that Emperor Liang misunderstood that he was drunk, so he pretended to be drunk and said, "Your Majesty, the wine of Daliang is good, but I still prefer the strong liquor of Yue."

When he said this, as if he had just thought of it, he suddenly said, "Ah, I remember when we came this time, our King Yue's Concubine Xiao brought His Majesty some fine beer specially prepared by the King of Yue. Foreign officials can only taste it during festivals. I am drooling when I think about it now."

Princess Nihuang couldn't help laughing after hearing this. She deliberately said, "Since Jingyao brought it to His Majesty, the quantity must be small. Don't try to trick His Majesty into giving you wine!"

After hearing what Nihuang said, everyone couldn't help but laugh. The atmosphere became lively and they began to discuss the fine wines from various countries.

About half an hour later, Meng Zhi came over with three criminal slaves.

Everyone stopped talking and looked over, wanting to know who Meng Zhi had chosen.

Wang Yue looked at Tingsheng, actually he couldn't understand why Prince Jing always took care of Tingsheng in the Ye Ting. The other princes didn't know about it, but Emperor Liang should know it.

But Emperor Liang didn't even know about it, which shows how much he neglected his son.

While Wang Yue was daydreaming, Mei Changsu's eyes were always focused on Tingsheng.

Fortunately, Emperor Liang was also watching these people, otherwise, Mei Changsu's current situation would be seen at a glance.

He was an emperor, so of course he knew. When he sat in his wheelchair and looked down, it was like a teacher looking at his students under the podium.

Don't think that your little actions are very secretive, that's just deceiving yourself.

However, after Emperor Liang looked away from the three children, he noticed Mei Changsu's expression. He felt a little suspicious, so he asked with a smile, "Su Qing, do you think these children are okay?"

Mei Changsu finally reacted. The moment he turned around, his expression had returned to normal. He said very respectfully, "They were personally selected by Commander Meng. Their physiques must be good. But I need to bring these children back to the palace and train them for five days. I hope Your Majesty will grant me permission."

Emperor Liang looked at Mei Changsu, then at the three children, and immediately nodded and said, "Okay, if you can win in five days, I will reward you handsomely!"

Mei Changsu was very calm. He pretended not to understand what Emperor Liang meant, and said seriously, "Your Majesty may be very kind, but for these three children, no amount of gold, silver, jade or silk will be of any use."

Emperor Liang could not help but laugh, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this man was used to being in the underworld, and thought that whoever made the contribution should get the credit. How could it be that simple?

It seems that he was just overthinking it.

He smiled and explained, "Su Qing, you misunderstood. I meant to give you a reward."

After hearing this, Mei Changsu quickly bowed and saluted, then said sincerely, "Thank you, Your Majesty, but they are the ones who did the hard work, and I am the one who made the profit. I feel ashamed to accept it."

The one-on-one conversation between Emperor Liang and Mei Changsu seemed like Mei Changsu had already won, which was a slap in the face of Beiyan.

The Northern Yan envoy could no longer hold back his anger, and suddenly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, isn't it a little early to discuss rewards now?"

Emperor Liang looked at the reaction of the envoy from Northern Yan and had another illusion. He thought Mei Changsu was deliberately teasing the envoy from Northern Yan.

Only then did he truly give up the idea of ​​probing, and said with finality, "The messenger is right, let's wait and see the result in five days. I will also see what Su Qing is capable of."

Mei Changsu realized that most of Emperor Liang's doubts had been dispelled, so he breathed a sigh of relief and bowed respectfully in response.

After the banquet, Wang Yue left the hall and was about to go to the gate of the Empress Dowager's Changle Palace, when he happened to see Jing Yao walking towards him.

After all, the two had lived together for more than six years, and Wang Yue could tell at a glance that Jing Yao was pretending to be happy.

He quickly walked over and asked in a voice that only two people could hear, "Yao'er, what happened?"

When Jing Yao saw that it was Wang Yue, she was about to say something, but then she remembered that this was the Daliang Palace, so she quickly looked at the female Jinyiwei.

Several people hurriedly stood far away and guarded each direction, preventing anyone from getting close to Wang Yue and Jing Yao.

Jing Yao felt absolutely safe, so she whispered, "It's nothing, it's just that my mother is having a hard time in the palace, the Queen always bullies her, and before she always made her copy Buddhist scriptures, but this time she was going to punish my mother to go to the Queen Mother's palace and light thirty candles for the Buddhist temple.

The Queen Mother has been dead for many years, and the palace where she lived has been closed. The Buddhist temple is deserted. My mother is timid, how can she live like this? "

Wang Yue understood what was going on. The Empress Dowager was Lin Shu's grandmother. Twelve years ago, Emperor Liang caused the Empress Dowager to lose her daughter. The old lady could not accept the blow and died all of a sudden.

Emperor Liang was also afraid of recalling those unpleasant things, so he sealed off the palace. However, the Empress punished Concubine Hui by making her light candles there. This made Concubine Hui suffer a loss, but she had no way to complain to Emperor Liang.

The reason why the Queen was making trouble for Concubine Hui at this time was to make her spread the news, preferably to Nihuang's ears.

Wang Yue couldn't possibly tell these details. He looked at the angry Jing Yao and asked curiously, "Do you still want to complain?"

Jing Yao was really ready to do this. Now, hearing Wang Yue's question, she looked at Wang Yue cautiously and asked hesitantly, "Prince, is it not possible?"

Wang Yue has always been tolerant towards his women. Seeing that Jing Yao was worried that he would be angry, he felt that he had to vent his anger for Jing Yao.

He remembered that in the plot, the Queen would probably take action against Nihuang in five days, and he felt that that would be the best time.

So Wang Yue smiled and said, "If you believe me, why don't you hold a banquet in the harem in five days and then explain this matter to Emperor Liang. By then, I will definitely make the Queen suffer a great loss."

Jing Yao knew that Wang Yue was not the kind of person who boasted. Since he said that to him, he must have his own reasons. She hesitated for a moment, and then asked hurriedly, "Prince, I wonder if you can leave the Jinyiwei to my mother and others. My mother is timid, and it will be better to have them around."

Wang Yue knew what Jing Yao was worried about, so he smiled and said, "No problem, you can go in now and tell Emperor Liang about this matter. Just say that you want a few people to tell Concubine Hui about your experience in Yue State, and Emperor Liang will definitely agree."

Jing Yao was a little confused when she saw Wang Yue's confident words. Her father had always been suspicious. How could he allow people to arrange personnel in the palace at will?

She asked curiously, "Your Majesty, you may not know my father. He has always been suspicious. I'm afraid he won't agree, right?"

It was the first time that Wang Yue saw a father with a bad temper who had a daughter. He was afraid that Jing Yao would be worried, so he told the truth, "The Jinyiwei of Yue State has a tight security for Yue State. It is difficult for Daliang to get the news of Yue Palace. You took the initiative to send someone to the door. Do you think your father will agree?"

Jing Yao followed Wang Yue's thoughts and felt that her father would definitely agree and would live in her mother's palace for a while.

But she was worried that it would harm Wang Yue, so she was a little reluctant and said in a tangled way, "Isn't this bad?"

Wang Yue understood Jing Yao's thoughts and smiled to comfort her, "Don't worry, people from the Jinyiwei are notoriously tight-lipped. They will definitely say what they can say, and they will never say what they can't say, even if you kill them."

After hearing this, Jing Yao walked towards Emperor Liang who happened to come out with peace of mind.

When Emperor Liang saw Jingyao coming over, he smiled and asked, "Yao'er, you haven't left the palace yet?"

Jing Yao shook her head and said with some embarrassment, "Father, my mother wants to know about my situation in Yue State, but I won't be here for long. Can I leave a few maids here and let them tell my mother about what happened there?"

When Emperor Liang heard this, his face changed and he wanted to reject the suggestion, but he immediately realized that these were spies sent to his side.

He immediately forced out a fatherly smile and said happily, "Why are you so troubled by such a small matter? Who do you want to keep? I'll let Gao Chen arrange it for you. I also want to hear how you are doing in Yue State."

Jing Yao didn't expect Wang Yue to have guessed correctly, so she immediately bowed to Emperor Liang and said, "Thank you, father!"

After she paid her respects, she happily called over a few female Jinyiwei and asked them to follow Eunuch Gao.

Chapter 105: Is He an Enemy?

The news from the palace spread quickly, and everyone in Jinling City was discussing the martial arts competition between the three children and Baili Qi in five days.

After all, three children who have never learned martial arts, even if they are extraordinary geniuses, should not be able to defeat the masters of Langya List.

But the person who said this is the leader of the Jiangzuo League, the largest gang in the underworld, which makes people feel that it has some credibility.

As a result, discussions about this matter became more intense, and even several famous gambling houses in Jinling opened gambling games specifically for this matter.

Wang Yue, along with a dozen Jinyiwei, followed Jingyao and Nihuang, strolling on the street.

When the people of Jinling City saw this scene, they all hid far away and looked at the group of people, their gazes unable to leave for a long time.

However, we cannot blame the common people of Jinling City for not having seen the world, mainly because the clothes of the Jinyiwei were so beautiful.

Each piece of clothing is made of the finest Yue brocade, and each pattern is carefully sewn by the embroiderer. If they were sold, they would probably fetch hundreds of taels of silver.

Although Nihuang knew that Wang Yue brought so many people with him to protect Jingyao, she still couldn't help but complain, "Wang Yue, what can Jingyao do when you bring so many people with you?"

Jing Yao didn't want Wang Yue to be wronged, so she quickly said to comfort him, "Sister Nihuang, I am already very satisfied with this. I have never come out to play before.

Let's not talk about me. Listen, everyone on the street is talking about the three children trained by Mei Changsu competing with others. What do you think? Aren't you worried at all?"

Nihuang didn't expect the topic to come back again, so she said unhappily, "You poked my lungs in order to protect your husband. Now it's not about what I want to do, but what does Mei Changsu think?"

Jing Yao felt a little embarrassed, so she quickly smiled and said, "Then let's not talk about this. I have to go shopping. I don't know when I will come back next time."

Of course Nihuang also understood this. She thought that if Jingyao wanted to come back next time, it would probably be either that Yue Kingdom attacked Nanjing or that Daliang destroyed Yue Kingdom.

This time she went to see Jing Yao, she originally wanted to ask Wang Yue whether Mei Changsu was sure or not, but she didn't expect the topic to turn to such an awkward one. She could only put it aside for the time being and accompany Jing Yao shopping.

……

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, five days had passed. As expected, all the people who attended the banquet last time came again this time.

Mei Changsu had the three children practice the formation in an extremely professional manner, so that to outsiders it seemed extremely powerful, and in the end they lived up to everyone's expectations and won the competition.

After all, Wang Yue often went to martial arts conferences and competed on stage from time to time. He was considered a seasoned man. After watching it, he felt that this formation was flashy and impractical. If it weren't for Bailiqi cooperating with the three children in the performance, many sword moves would have no effect on Bailiqi at all, and would not be as powerful as Xiao Jingrui's sword moves.

However, the four people in the palace who could understand what was going on just smiled and said nothing. The others were praising Mei Changsu for being so amazing that he could arrange a witness to defeat a master who could be on the Langya List in just five days.

Emperor Liang didn't notice anything at all. He was very happy watching it. He felt that these three children defeated the best fighter of Northern Yan. This brought glory to Daliang!

The envoy from Beiyan was also an amateur. He was so frightened that his face turned pale. He asked Bailiqi who was lying on the ground with some excitement, "Bailiqi, are you okay?"

Mei Changsu stood up at this time and said in a pretentious manner, "Don't worry, envoy from Beiyan, we will not harm our guests."

After he finished speaking, he turned to the three slaves and reminded them, "You three, why don't you thank His Majesty for his grace?"

The three children, led by Tingsheng, were overjoyed and immediately knelt on the ground to express their gratitude.

Emperor Liang looked at the three children kneeling on the ground and bowed obediently, and said with a hearty laugh, "I haven't even started rewarding you yet, and you're already thanking me."

Princess Nihuang also stood up at this time and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, the three of them are just criminal slaves. No matter how much reward you give them, they will not be able to enjoy it. It is better to grant them the status of criminal slaves and let Princess Nihuang take them back to settle them."

Nihuang's words at this time triggered Emperor Liang's suspicion once again. He looked at Nihuang for a long time without saying a word, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Mei Changsu knew his uncle's character, and at this time, he said abruptly, "Princess, I trained these three. If His Majesty grants them amnesty, I should be the one to take them away."

Nihuang also realized that she was anxious. Knowing that this was a critical moment, she did not argue with Mei Changsu. Instead, she pretended to be slightly angry and said, "If Mr. Su wants to recruit disciples, he can find them anywhere. Is it because this sword formation is so mysterious that you are afraid that others will learn it? I will take care of these three children!"

Mei Changsu could tell that Nihuang was really angry, but he also knew that it was not because of the child. He pretended not to understand and said with some embarrassment, "Princess, aren't you embarrassing me?"

Nihuang, however, assumed that Mei Changsu was unwilling to make a choice. She stopped dwelling on the issue and turned to look at Emperor Liang, saying very solemnly, "Your Majesty, it was Nihuang who spoke first."

Mei Changsu was relieved in his heart, but he looked a little anxious on the surface. He also looked at Emperor Liang cooperatively, "Your Majesty!"

When Emperor Liang saw the two men fighting for his apprentice, his suspicions faded a little, and he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why are you two fighting before I even open my mouth?

I will not be fooled and will not judge for you. These three children can be exempted from their status as criminal slaves. As for who should be taken back, you can discuss it among yourselves."

Prince Yu had seen how powerful Mei Changsu was, so of course he wanted to take the opportunity to win him over. He certainly couldn't miss such a good opportunity.

So he quickly stood up and said, "Father, of course you can't just reward the three children. Mr. Su has been busy for at least five days. If there is no reward, I will stand up for you."

The Crown Prince was unwilling to be outdone. Seeing that Prince Yu had spoken his words first, he immediately stood up and retorted, "Prince Yu, I think you are too impatient. Father didn't say he would not reward you."

After he refuted Prince Yu, he turned around and said to Emperor Liang, "Father, I think Mr. Su has made great contributions to the government and should be given a higher title than a guest official!"

Emperor Liang looked at his two sons and felt that neither of them seemed particularly smart.

Daliang is his. If he wants to fight for the world, he must first be called the Emperor of Liang. Only he can use a talented person like this.

But he is old now, and of course he doesn't want to continue to struggle in his later years, so he waved his hand and let his two sons step down.
