Chapter 16
At that time, Mei Changsu and Xiao Jingyan were only 16 years old. They had been growing up side by side. They raced horses together, competed together in martial arts, competed for the top spot in the autumn hunting grounds together, and went to the battlefield to face the fierce smoke; When surrounded by the army, they fought back to back together.
Under the tall sycamore tree, two high-spirited teenagers leaned against the tree to rest together. Xiao Jingyan smiled and asked Mei Changsu, "Xiao Shu, can we stay together forever?"
Mei Changsu played with the sword in his hand and replied, "Of course, we are brothers."
"But we will marry a wife and have children in the future." Xiao Jingyan said.
Mei Changsu laughed, "That doesn't prevent us from being together. In the future, our sons and daughters can learn martial arts and practice swords together. They are as friendly as we are!"
Xiao Jingyan looked at him with a smile and nodded, "Yes."
The two of them went into the palace together to see the Empress Dowager and Concubine Jing, and ate the snacks made by Concubine Jing.
The wheel of fate is approaching, it is useless to think about it, because no one can reverse the cause and effect of time.
Mei Changsu clutched his hands tightly, tears streaming down his face, he kept calling out a name, "Jingyan, Jingyan..."
Li Gang outside the door glanced into the room when he heard the voice, then lowered his head with a sigh, and didn't go in.Fei Liu flew down from the roof and was about to enter the house, but was blocked by Li Gang, who shook his head at him.Fei Liu pursed his lips and left with a snort.
In the early morning of the second day, Mei Changsu stood in the courtyard and watched Fei Liu practice, and said to Li Gang next to him, "The gunpowder smuggled by official ships in private gun houses has a long history, and the amount smuggled is fixed every year, but This year, there were two more ships, but in the end they did not enter the private artillery room, but disappeared without anyone noticing, maybe..."
Li Gang asked, "Maybe what?"
"There are other people who smuggled these two ships of gunpowder." Mei Changsu stroked his sleeve and said.
Li Gang thought, "In other words, there is still a batch of gunpowder hidden in Jinling. I don't know where or what it is used for?"
Mei Changsu looked at him, "The purpose of bringing gunpowder in is not to make firecrackers, but to blow up something. This person knows how to transport official ships, and also knows how to use tricks to hide his eyes. He uses the private gun room of the household department as a shield. He must not be a person from the Jianghu .”
"Is he trying to kill someone or destroy something?" Li Gang said, "Is there any important occasion in Jinling this year that can be his target?"
A flash of inspiration flashed in Mei Changsu's mind, "The end of the year festival!"
Mei Changsu called Fei Liu to tie up Dr. Yan, and then took Li Gang to Yanhou's Mansion.
When he arrived at Yan Yujin's house, Mei Changsu saw Yan Yujin and Xiao Jingrui practicing swords, so he stood aside and watched, as if he saw the shadows of him and Jingyan in the past from these two people.
After Yan Yujin and Xiao Jingrui competed, the two met Mei Changsu.
Yan Yujin asked, "Why is Mr. Su so free to come to my house today?"
"I've been in Jinling for a long time, but I still haven't come to visit your house." Mei Changsu said with a smile, "I don't know if Yanhou is at home?"
"Father went away and hasn't returned yet. Why did Mr. Su seek my father?" Yan Yujin asked.
Mei Changsu smiled, "I'm a junior, so I should visit Lord Yan."
