"Weakness?" Governor Xiao was stunned, why didn't he know? looked at Xiao Sa puzzled.

"Too indecisive!" Xiao Sa said bluntly.

Indecision? Governor Xiao was even more stunned, Lu Mingyuan, who was decisive and strategic, was actually like this in the eyes of his son? He really didn't expect it.

"Sa'er, you can't be careless!" Governor Xiao is in a hurry.

"Father, you can relax, I don't deny that Lu Mingyuan is famous, but this weakness of his will make all his standards drop by a step!" Xiao Sa smiled coldly, "I think back then, when he was successful, there were two ways to live, one was to retire after success, and the other was to give up power to make a living!" However, he is still so arrogant, insisting on grasping the power in his hands, coupled with his increasing prestige, so that De Hongzhi is jealous of him, scruples, and then suspicious, and the first strike is strong, and he rebelled against his most beloved disciple Mu Bin, let him fight back, uproot his power, and only then did he escape from the capital in embarrassment, and his great reputation was lost for a while, isn't it stupid? ”

Governor Xiao looked at his son a little speechlessly.

Therefore, although this Lu Mingyuan is talented and knowledgeable, his eyes are like blind, looking forward and backward, he can't see the situation clearly, and he is constantly interrupted, but he suffers from the chaos, which is not worrying at all. Thinking that back then, when the emperor had already been successful, he should have expected that the emperor's mental technique would not allow the existence of power higher than himself. And he tried his best to protect Hongzhi's upper position, all the way to the vertical and horizontal, vertical and horizontal, his prestige has already surpassed Hongzhi, and his merits have reached the peak, and he has become a thorn in Hongzhi's heart, after all, no emperor can bear to be ridden on the head, although Hongzhi has a gentle temperament, but it does not mean that he can endure these, so Hongzhi launched that accident and expelled Lu Mingyuan from Jingshi. Of course, Hongzhi is still a little indecisive, if he is ruthless, I believe that Lu Mingyuan will not be able to escape from Jingshi. Xiao Sa analyzed in a deep voice.

"Then it can be seen from this that this Hongzhi still has affection for Lu Mingyuan, otherwise, why would he release Lu Mingyuan from Jingshi!" Governor Xiao was a little worried and reminded.

"Father is too worried, now that the world has changed, it is no longer Lu Mingyuan's era. Moreover, with the passage of time, all feelings will fade, not to mention that some of the people who looked up to Lu Mingyuan back then are now all bigwigs, will they still be subject to him and that feeling? I deeply doubt it. Now, all the situation has changed greatly, the power of the court has changed greatly, forming a stable balance, originally, I still have to bother to break this balance, but now with this Lu Mingyuan, no matter whether the ministers in the court are nostalgic or not, as long as they act, this balance will inevitably be broken, but it saves me some things! Xiao Sa smiled.

A glimmer of light flashed in Governor Xiao's eyes, and he nodded slowly, his son's analysis is reasonable! Yes, time has changed, who knows how much love is left!

"Sa'er, what do you think we are going to do next?" Governor Xiao asked a question hidden in his heart, after all, he was still a little apprehensive in his heart.

Xiao Sa smiled, "Father, no matter what, we must enter that list, and then, see what kind of medicine is sold in this Ming Zhongxin gourd?" ”

"You're just going to check it out?" Governor Xiao's face was full of disbelief and deep suspicion.

Xiao Sa shook his head and sighed, "Father, do you think that the vigilance that day will be very lax, will it give us a chance to launch?" ”

That's right! Xiao Zhifu deeply thinks that these days, there are constantly forces targeting the Ming family, and when His Majesty wants to include Ming Zhongxin in the East Palace to become the prince's companion, this is a major event that touches the dragon scales, plus today someone framed Ming Zhongxin and failed, but confessed himself, which made His Majesty even more angry, I believe that after today, Jinyiwei and Dongchang will definitely go all out to protect Ming Zhongxin, and don't want Ming Zhongxin to do anything!

"You don't want to think about it, is Ming Zhongxin stupid? If he wasn't 100% sure, would he put himself in danger? Therefore, although Ming Zhongxin wants to hold a banquet, it is a little unreliable, but he must also see the situation thoroughly, knowing that no matter who it is, no matter what kind of force, it will not dare to launch it on the same day, otherwise, they will face the wrath of His Majesty, Jinyiwei and Dongchang comprehensive search, in this case, I believe that as long as it is a clear-headed person, he will never dare to take such a big risk! Xiao Sa analyzed.

Xiao Zhifu still had some doubts in his eyes, look at his son, others don't know, but he knows, our son is not a fuel-efficient lamp, others don't dare, he may not dare, maybe now he is comforting himself, turn his back, and immediately arrange it himself! I have to guard against it!

"Father, you better worry about how to get the invitation! This is an opportunity for us to observe Ming Zhongxin up close! If you miss it, you really won't have it again! Xiao Sa's eyes were full of narrowness.

Xiao Zhifu looked at his son and sighed, alas, what a wrong! In any case, I can't disobey my son's request!

Governor Xiao nodded and agreed.

"By the way, Sa'er, in what name is this banquet held by Ming Zhongxin?"

"Of course, in the name of watching the Ming family's business methods!" Xiao Sa snorted disdainfully.

"Speak well!" Governor Xiao also snorted coldly.

Xiao Sa glanced at Xiao Zhifu, his face softened slightly, "Art appreciation party!" ”

An art party? Governor Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, yes, the art party! Isn't the Ming family just in the name of art? Through these skills, the Ming family became famous in Beijing, and it had a great reputation! True to its name!

Looking at Xiao Sa's unhappy face, Xiao Zhifu smiled secretly in his heart, his son is good at everything, but he is arrogant, and he can't see that others are better than him! You must know that Ming Zhongxin has made a great name in Beijing and suppressed his reputation, how can he be convinced! No, it's more energetic!

I'm afraid that I have to let myself find an invitation this time, and I must have the intention of making trouble in my heart! Even if you don't send someone to target Ming Zhongxin, I'm afraid that you will find an opportunity to fold Ming Zhongxin's face in person! After all, he had already planted a heel in Jinan Mansion in Shandong Province before, and he was going to find a way back!

Of course, he won't irritate his son anymore, let him be! Since he was a child, there is nothing he can't do, since he encountered Ming Zhongxin, he has eaten turtles one after another, and naturally his heart is not smooth, as long as this breath comes out, it will be fine!

"Appreciation party! I will inevitably disgrace Ming Zhongxin through this banquet! Xiao Sa snorted heavily.

Governor Xiao smiled and said no more.

"Ming Zhongxin held an art appreciation party?" In the imperial study of the palace, Hongji frowned and looked at Chen Zhun.

"Not bad! In fact, this banquet was invited by Mr. Lu! Chen Zhun replied.

"Mr. Lu's inviter?" Hiroji was stunned.

"Exactly!" Chen Zhun should be.

"It seems that Mr. Lu is about to come to the front of the stage!" A hint of excitement flashed in Hongji's eyes, but he immediately hid it, and instead continued to ask, "Who did he invite?" ”

"I don't know!" Chen Zhun shook his head and continued to explain, "Actually, it's just a spy who reported that the Ming Mansion is going to hold a banquet, and Mr. Lu will personally draw up the list of banquet guests, and Ming Zhongxin will be specifically responsible for all banquet affairs!" ”

At first, Hongzhi heard that Chen Zhun didn't know what to say, and his face was a little unhappy, but after listening to the explanation, his face eased slightly.

"Weichen thinks that this time Mr. Lu wants to recount some of his previous relationships!" Chen Zhun quietly looked at Hongji's face and said slowly.

"Previous relationship?" Hongji's face sank and he looked at Chen Zhun.

Chen Zhun was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly bowed back, "Your Majesty, Weichen is guessing. If you make a mistake, please forgive your majesty! ”

"Alright, it's not a big deal!" Hongzhi waved his hand, "Mr. Lu hasn't returned for many years, and this time he just wants to catch up with the past, he just borrowed the whirlpool of the Ming Mansion, what's the big deal!" ”

Not a big deal? Chen Zhun secretly slandered in his heart, it's not a big deal, why are you so unhappy, this is a knot! But he didn't dare to speak out, so he could only slander one or two things in his heart.

"You quickly find out the guest list that Mr. Lu has drawn up!" Hongji commanded.

Promise! Chen Zhun promised!

"By the way, how will this art appreciation be organized?" A twinkle flashed in Hongji's eyes.

Chen Zhun's heart moved, Your Majesty is tempted?

"Back to Your Majesty, the spies reported that after the Ming Mansion decided to hold a banquet, he immediately sent someone to invite Miss Yu Yan, the owner of Huancai Pavilion, to discuss in detail, presumably, there will inevitably be a singing and dancing performance, right?!" Chen Zhun responded.

"What else?" Hongji asked.

"Also, all the Ming family members have returned to the Ming house, so there must be some arrangements! However, according to the nature of Ming Zhongxin, I am afraid that I will not make any big moves this time, but I am afraid that I will not stop! Chen Zhun guessed as he spoke.

Oh! Hongji's eyes narrowed.

Chen Zhun didn't dare to say anything more, and stood quietly, waiting for orders.

However, Hongji fell into deep thought and stopped talking.

After a long time, Chen Zhun shouted softly, "Your Majesty, how should Weichen deal with this banquet?" ”

After speaking, Chen Zhun quietly looked at Hongzhi's face.

"How to deal with it?" Hongzhi was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly glanced at Chen Zhun, "Strengthen your vigilance, and make sure that the Ming Mansion will not be attacked!" ”

Chen Zhun promised.

"Your Majesty!" Chen Zhun looked at the contemplative Hongzhi and called out softly.

"What else?" Hongji frowned and glanced at Chen Zhun unhappily.

"The Prince's side?" Chen Zhun said half of his words, and his eyes drifted to Hongji.

Hongzhi suddenly realized in an instant, this is worried that the prince will make trouble! However, when Hongji heard the prince, he also had a headache.

He knew that if Zhao'er heard that a banquet was going to be held in the house, according to the relationship between Zhao'er and Ming Zhongxin, he would definitely go, but this would cause great trouble to the security work, and Chen Zhun was asking him for advice! However, what can he do! He couldn't stop the news from reaching Zhao'er's ears, and, according to Ming's nature, there will inevitably be some interesting and strange things this time, and Zhao'er will inevitably go desperately, how can this be good?

Thinking of this demon king of the mixed world, he also had some numb claws and some headaches.

A wry smile flashed in Chen Zhun's eyes, yes, when it comes to this prince, who in the palace doesn't have a headache? With His Majesty and the Queen under his protection, it can really be said that the wind and the rain will be rainy, and no one can control it! If he goes to the Ming Mansion for a banquet, I am afraid that our workload will immediately increase several times, after all, as the prince of a country, there must not be a trace of mistakes!

"That's right!" Hongji, who was full of sadness, suddenly flashed a trace of urgency in his eyes, "If the prince goes to the Ming Mansion this time, you will give an order to Ming Zhongxin to let him be responsible for all the safety matters of the prince, and if the prince is missing a hair, let him take his head to give me an explanation!" ”

What the? Chen Zhun was a little confused, and raised his eyes to look at Hongzhi distractedly.

Your Majesty, what are you trying to do? If Ming Zhongxin is responsible for the safety of the prince, then we will also be responsible, after all, if the prince has a problem, His Majesty will hold Ming Zhongxin responsible, and then our Dongchang can escape responsibility? I'm afraid that our workload will increase even more!

Although His Majesty's order at this time is to make Ming Zhongxin responsible, can we relax?

I actually wanted His Majesty to restrain the prince and prevent him from going to the Ming Mansion on the same day! Instead of letting you push the blame out! Although he harbored a grudge in his heart, he could not say it.

Now that His Majesty has made a decision, he can only implement it! Moreover, I have to go and inform Ming Zhongxin and let him ask for more blessings! However, on the other hand, it was actually himself who hurt Ming Zhongxin, after all, it was he who raised the question of the crown prince to His Majesty!

"Okay, you go to Xuanzhen, if the prince goes to the Ming Mansion, as long as he enters the Ming Mansion, all security matters will be handed over to Ming Zhongxin and let him be responsible!" Hongji's face was full of excitement, as if he had found something fun!

Chen Zhun smiled bitterly in his heart, but he could only promise on his face.

"Alright, let's go down and make arrangements!" Hongji waved his hand and said with a smile on his face.

Chen Zhun went as promised.

"I can't say it, I can go and join in the fun!" Hongji looked at Chen Zhun's back and muttered to himself.

"Your Majesty, by all means!" In the darkness, a hurried voice shouted, "At that time, the Ming Mansion will be a whirlpool, no one knows what will happen, Your Majesty must not be in danger!" ”

When Hongji heard this, his face was gloomy, "I'm just a whim, and I won't risk my life!" ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" In the darkness, a voice turned flat and respectful.

Hum! Hongji snorted coldly and threw his sleeves away.

Outside the Chengtian Gate, the Jinyi pro-army commanded the envoy.

"What did you say?" Mu Bin jumped up, grabbed Shi Wenyi's arms with a happy face, and asked with a longing face.

Shi Wenyi endured the pain in his arms, nodded in response, and repeated again, "The Ming Mansion is going to hold an art appreciation party and invite guests, and Mr. Lu will personally draw up the guest list!" ”

The high-level Jinyi guards next to them were a little puzzled, wasn't it just a Ming Mansion banquet? What's wrong with the conductor, why are you so excited? They couldn't help but set their eyes on Shi Wenyi, after all, the news was brought by Shi Wenyi, and he was the only one who wanted to make clear the thoughts of Commander Mu!
