Episode 33
King Jing was furious after leaving the palace. He told Lie Zhanying waiting outside the palace that he had mistakenly looked at Mei Changsu.
In the secret passage, Mei Changsu waited anxiously for Prince Jing to discuss Wei Zheng's matter.Prince Jing misunderstood Mei Changsu's character and temperament after listening to Xiaoxin's words, and hesitated for a long time, unwilling to see him.Under Lie Zhanying's persuasion, Prince Jing entered the secret passage with him.
Knowing that Xia Jiang was setting a trap, King Jing and Lie Zhanying still asked Mei Changsu to rescue Wei Zheng without hesitation. Their friendship for their comrades was far more important than their own safety.When Wei Zheng was arrested, Mei Changsu was equally anxious, but he still rationally pointed out that rescuing Wei Zheng would do a lot of harm but nothing good, and advised King Jing to know how to make choices when pursuing a great cause.This attitude made Prince Jing, who had misunderstood him for a long time, even more angry. Before Mei Changsu could finish speaking, Prince Jing swung his sword to temporarily cut off the bell rope that communicated messages in the secret passage, broke with Mei Changsu, and left with a wave of sleeves.
Concubine Jing became suspicious of Xiaoxin. She quietly interrogated Xiaoxin about the process of delivering the letter, and found out that Xiao Jinzi from Concubine Hui's palace helped.Emperor Liang, who had been dreaming about Concubine Chen frequently in recent days, had many thoughts on his mind. After going to court, he came to Zhiluo Palace again.He asked Concubine Jing about her views on Chi Yan's old case, but Concubine Jing did not give a substantive reply.During the chat, Emperor Liang mentioned that he had caught a fish that had slipped through the crackdown. Before he could finish his words, Concubine Jing was so shocked that she dropped the tea cup in her hand to the ground.She thought the traitor she caught was Lin Shu, but she calmed down when she found out it was Wei Zheng.Emperor Liang asked Concubine Jing to restrain Prince Jing more and stop being stubborn about the counter-case and acting without proper measure.
Afraid that Prince Jing would act impulsively, Mei Changsu carried his sick body and braved the heavy snow to go to Prince Jing's Mansion. He waited in the drafty foyer for a long time before Prince Jing came out to meet him.At this time Meng Zhi also rushed over.Mei Changsu tried hard to persuade him, but no matter how dangerous he faced, Prince Jing would not hesitate to save Wei Zheng.Mei Changsu was deeply moved by King Jing's heroic spirit and deep love for Lin Shu, and he decided to take the risk to rescue Wei Zheng.
He discussed in detail the strategy of rescuing Wei Zheng with King Jing and Meng Zhi.During the conversation, King Jing learned that the Jiangzuo Alliance had organized personnel to rescue Wei Zheng once and had lost many people. Only then did he realize that he had misunderstood Mei Changsu, and his expression finally softened.Mei Changsu believed that he had to make arrangements to save Wei Zheng. Prince Jing could not come forward, and no one from Prince Jing's palace could be involved in this matter, otherwise all the previous efforts in seizing the legitimate son would be wasted.He hoped that Prince Jing would calm down and face the provocations of Prince Xia Jiang and Prince Yu calmly, and not be caught openly.After careful consideration, several people thought that there was no other way but to rob them hard, but they had to wait for Xia Dong, who was most familiar with the dungeons of the Xuanjing Division, to come back to Beijing and lend a helping hand, which would be half the success.
