Meng Xuanyu was very busy that day, either discussing matters with the ministers of the six ministries, or plotting with people from the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Yushitai.

After the evidence was gathered and everything was ready, Meng Xuanyu took the Taifu, Zhongshu Ling, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, the Yushi doctor, etc. into the palace.

We chatted in the palace for three hours, focusing on the major and minor cases of Wang Zhaoyuan and his son, arguing with each other.

Emperor Meng Chang of Shu also summoned two trusted ministers and had a heated debate with Meng Xuanyu and others. In the end, the facts were louder than words, because many of the evidences were conclusive, and Meng Chang could not completely suppress them.

"Father, if we don't investigate and deal with this person, where will the law of the country be?" Meng Xuanyu asked his father, neither humble nor arrogant.

Meng Chang hesitated for a while, nodded slightly, and said relentingly: "The matter has come to an end. Wang Zhaoyuan himself is not clean enough and has done these wrong things. I can't protect him. He is responsible for everything."

Upon hearing this, Gao Xi, the assistant minister of Huangmen, suggested: "Guan, please don't make any announcement about this matter for the time being. Wang Zhaoyuan is at the front camp with heavy troops. If the news leaks out, even if he doesn't rebel, if he directly changes sides, he will attack me."

The Kingdom of Shu is also a disaster, it is better to stabilize it first and find an opportunity to take action."

Meng Chang thought it made sense and nodded: "What Gao Aiqing said makes sense. This matter cannot be made public. It is not appropriate to touch Wang Zhaoyuan and his son for the time being."

Meng Xuanyu cupped his hands and said: "Father, this kind of person has done many evil things and likes to talk empty talk. I feel that his talents are limited and he is really not qualified for a big job. This time, I will go north to the frontline camp to serve as an imperial envoy and supervisor of the army."

, I ask my father to give me a sword of Shangfang. Once I find out that Wang Zhaoyuan has ulterior motives, or is passive and sabotaging his work, affecting the national line, he will be captured directly on these charges to prevent the northern border defense from being exposed!"

When Meng Chang heard this, although he felt it made sense, he couldn't help but look at the prince one more time, hesitated to speak, thought for a moment and then agreed.

Because Meng Chang believed in Meng Xuanyu's character, it was impossible for him to have the intention to seize power.

Even if Meng Xuanyu controls the frontline army, Meng Chang will not worry about him overstepping it.

"That's right!"

Meng Chang agreed and asked Huangmen Shilang to write a secret edict. He also took his sword and gave it to Meng Xuanyu, letting him choose the opportunity and take full responsibility.

"My son, I will definitely be able to stick to the front line and defend the country!" Meng Xuanyu said in a sonorous and powerful voice, with a sense of integrity.

In the entire Shu Kingdom, there are not many people with such backbone who are willing to defend the border!

There are very few hard-working people in the royal family.

Meng Xuanyu is an exception. He worries about the country and the people all day long, and is particularly concerned about the political affairs of the court and the intelligence of the vassal states.

Meng Chang felt more and more sorry that he was only the second prince in name!

"It would be great if the prince could be half as good as him!" Meng Chang sighed, with a look of regret on his face.

………

As night falls, the sky is filled with stars.

Su Chen told Peng Qingqing martial arts stories for two hours. His mouth was dry, so he drank a pot of tea and walked to the courtyard to get some fresh air.

It was already late at night when Meng Xuanyu returned home, but he immediately thought of Su Chen. When he came to the courtyard where the latter was, he happened to meet him by the lotus pond outside the courtyard.

"Brother Chen, there is progress."

His face was full of fatigue. It was obvious that he had not slept well these days. He was worried about the country and the people, and was involved in the battles in the court. However, the moment he saw Su Chen, he still showed a smile and excitement.

Su Chen actually felt a little sorry for his hard work these days, but the other person was a man, so he suppressed the feeling of distress.

It always feels a bit strange for a man to feel tenderly sorry for another man...

"Your Highness, did Meng Guanjia decide to take action against Wang Zhaoyuan after seeing the evidence?" Su Chen asked.

Meng Xuanyu nodded and replied: "Absolutely. My father used to be very fond of Mr. Wang, but after seeing so many evidences of corruption, bending the law, and committing crimes in the Wang family, he embezzled a lot of money from the treasury every year in water conservancy, soldiers, etc.,

I am indeed a little angry."

"However, since Wang Zhaoyuan is currently the commander-in-chief of the northern camp, and the war is currently underway, it is not easy to arrest him directly. Send me there with the imperial edict and the imperial sword. Once the war fails, I can capture Wang Zhaoyuan in time and replace him. I will lead the northern army and horses.

, continue to guard the gate of the country, even if the corpse is wrapped in horse leather, the Song army will not be allowed to enter the Shu territory."

Meng Xuanyu's words were sonorous and powerful, passionate and heroic.

Su Chen looked at him sideways, wondering why there was no record in history that this Meng Xuanyu was such a talented and brave man.

Did the Song people deliberately omit it when they compiled the history of Shu?

"That's good. Your Highness will be here to take charge. Once you take control of the military, you will be like a fish in water. You can compete with the Song army. I won't worry about it anymore." After Su Chen finished speaking, he put his hand on the second prince's shoulder and patted it twice.

Almost hugged him.

Meng Xuanyu stepped aside and avoided his embrace. He seemed to be a bit hysterical and didn't want to be exposed to such...intimate gestures!

Damn, I'm disgusted.

Su Chen was speechless, thinking that I was just trying to encourage you. It would be in vain for me to come here to help you after all these days of traveling and traveling. I can't even touch you, and I'm not a girl, so I'm so particular!

"I'm going back to sleep, just let me know before departure." Su Chen waved his hand and turned to go back to the room.

Meng Xuanyu looked a little embarrassed. He reached out to hold Su Chen's hand, then quickly put it down and coughed dryly: "Have a good rest. At the latest, I will go north early the next morning to the northern frontier to confront the Song army."

Su Chen turned sideways and responded: "Okay, I got it."

"I..." Meng Xuanyu wanted to explain that he didn't mean to be cold to him, but he didn't know how to say it.

Su Chen couldn't help but said curiously: "By the way, Your Highness, you have a four-sword girl. I haven't even seen her yet. She's hidden so tightly. It's not interesting."

When Meng Xuanyu heard this, the guilt in his heart completely disappeared.

"The day after tomorrow, I will take them to travel north." Meng Xuanyu rolled his eyes at him, snorted, and said lightly.

"Oh, let's do it the day after tomorrow!" Su Chen smiled slightly. He actually had no other ideas, he was just curious and wanted to take a look.

Because Wei Ying once drunkenly said that the second prince had four personal sword girls, who were not much inferior to the courtesan Su Ruyan. This only aroused his strong curiosity.
