Episode 9
Mei Changsu moved to a new home, and Dr. Yan and Aunt Ji came to Beijing to take care of Mei Changsu.The goose-feather heavy snow was falling, and Fei Liu was having a good time, but the frail Mei Changsu was obviously unwell and was driven indoors by Dr. Yan.
In Jingzhao Mansion, the government officials came to report that a monster appeared on Xiaogu Mountain, which made people uneasy.
As expected, Gao Sheng handed over the case of corpse hiding in Lanyuan to the Ministry of Punishment.Qi Min, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, was a member of the Yuwang faction.King Yu ordered him to make an iron case and get rid of Lou Zhijing.
Mei Changsu planned to break the claws of the Crown Prince and Prince Yu one by one. Lou Zhijing and Duke Qing were already the turtles in the urn.He said to Meng Zhi: King Yu might not give up and would try to rescue Duke Qing.Just as he was talking, King Yu came to visit.
King Yu asked Mei Changsu for advice to save the life of Duke Qing.In order to get rid of Duke Qing, Mei Changsu tried his best to lure Prince Yu.He said that the emperor was determined to investigate the land invasion case thoroughly. If he wanted to put an end to the trend of land annexation in one fell swoop, Duke Baoqing would lose his sacred heart.In order to continue to confuse King Yu, he pretended to stand for King Yu, saying that by sacrificing Duke Qing, he could gain King Jing and compete with Xie Yu in the military.His careful analysis made King Yu take the bait.
King Yu gave up on Duke Qing and ordered the Ministry of Punishment to cooperate with King Jing.Xie Yu attempted to assassinate Mei Changsu again, but failed miserably because Su's residence was heavily guarded.
Mei Changsu took Fei Liu to Prince Jing's Mansion.Borrowing Fei Liu's hand, he gave Tingsheng the soft gold armor to protect him.Mei Changsu gave instructions to Prince Jing on how to handle the case of land invasion by the Qing State, and Prince Yu agreed.While chatting, Mei Changsu wanted to touch the red iron bow placed by the wall. It was an old thing that he had used before, but Prince Jing stopped him.He apologetically explained that it was a relic of a friend who didn't like strangers touching his things.Mei Changsu was very moved.
The prince and King Yu competed to recommend candidates for the Ministry of Household Affairs to expand their own power, which upset Emperor Liang.
