When Meng Qi came, the fire had been controlled and was gradually extinguishing.

The Imperial Guards and the eunuch were covered in mud, their faces were covered in black and gray, and they looked like beggar chicken wrapped in lotus leaves and prepared to roast them on fire.

“…”

Looking at the group of "beggar chickens" running around, Meng Qi suspected that he was too hungry.

When did the last meal come?

After he turned into a gerbil, he seemed to have eaten snacks for two days without a piece of meat.

Meng Qi turned his head and looked at the direction of the imperial kitchen.

The palace was so messy, and there was no hope of hot rice and hot soup. How many plates of pastries can there be? How many dishes of the Royal Seating in Ningwang Palace are better than those in the small town pastry shop? Meng Qi fell into deep thought.

"What sound?" Mo Li turned his head keenly.

“…A branch broke.”

Meng Qi seemed to be fine and kicked the gravel at his feet to the side.

——Whose belly screams? How could the dragon vein's belly scream?!

"By the way, who is this person?" Meng Qi, who was eager to change the topic, naturally set his sights on the young man who was rushing to support him by many people.

The boy was so angry that he couldn't exert force. A group of people who caused trouble came, and he wanted to make him even more injured.

"Stop, what's going on?" Cheng Jingchuan arrived in time and immediately stopped seeing the chaos.

The guards came to salute immediately, and the other eunuchs secretly looked at Cheng Jingchuan. Obviously they didn't know who this person was.

The Imperial Guards are different.                                                                                                                          

"This, it seems to be Captain Cheng in Ningtai City Tour yamen! I remember him. I heard that the third princess had met him in Tianshui Temple and wanted to marry him!"

"A lie is just a concubine! How could the princess marry a captain? But is this the captain Cheng... Tsk tsk, it's true that he is a talented person."

At the corner of the porch of the Imperial Medical Office, two eunuchs were hiding tightly and talking freely.

Meng Qi raised his eyebrows, is this an unexpected gain?

Mo Li thought deeply that unless King Ning's daughter was born very late or had few daughters, according to his son's age and ranking, the third princess should be about ten years older than Cheng Jingchuan, and he married early. According to the eunuch's statement, could it be that his husband was a widow?

"The third princess' preferences are different from others. Whoever is noble does not want to marry a noble family in the family of the family surnamed? No matter how bad it is, you have to find a scholar! The third princess has shallow eyes, so she knows how to rush down and look..."

"Silence! Look at him now, he is still like a small captain? Why do these imperial guards obey his orders?"

"The sky has changed. Commander Wang and the others didn't see it. The Imperial Guard seemed to be still arresting people everywhere in the palace. Under such circumstances, the Seventeen Princes could actually wander here. Guess what?"

The eunuch took a breath and looked at the boy in a wrong way.

It was also coincidental that the place where they were muttering together was not far from where Cheng Jingchuan stood. Although the noise around him was a little louder, Cheng Jingchuan still heard a few words and his face immediately became dark.

"What's wrong with the little prince?"

When the boy saw Cheng Jingchuan, his expression froze and he insisted on standing firmly.

As a result, his waist was not strong enough and he couldn't take it well, so he grinned.

King Ning gave birth to more than twenty sons, about forty grandsons, and two great-grandsons.

Ning Wang was lazy in government affairs and did not teach his sons. Instead, he served the water very smoothly. He did not dodge his youngest son or promote his eldest son, and did not even care about the lives and deaths of these sons.

The elderly emperor generally suppressed and feared his growing son. He did not exist in Ning Wang because he did not feel that he was old at all, nor did he have an excellent son.

This makes the "Son of King Ning" not very valuable.

Those who are a little older are married to prominent families and often go out to the palace to have banquets and socialize, and can still recognize foreign officials.

Those young people are troublesome, most of them are cowardly, and some even dare not even go out of the palace gate, which makes the eunuchs have to rely on clothing and accessories to distinguish whether they are the son or grandson of King Ning. Nothing else can be done, and they can't even tell the ranking. In order to avoid offending noble people, the people below simply call them "Little Prince".

This is different from what Meng Qi and Moli guessed at first, and it is also very different from the ideas of the people in the martial arts world who have no foundation in the officialdom. When they hear this, they think they are privately designated as Chengsi's prince.

Originally, it was a title that was not in line with etiquette, laws and regulations, but there were too many special things on the side of Ning, such as palace chariots under the emperor's regulations, official titles that existed at the same time as the minister system of the royal palace and the six ministries system. Since he agreed that Ning was the emperor, he did not directly call the princes by the rankings, it was already very low-key, and the princes had the imperial titles of a county prince, which was not considered out of order.

"If I remember correctly, the little prince should still be in Fangting Pavilion now?" Cheng Jingchuan frowned and asked the guards in a low voice.

Mo Li remembered that the plaque on the pavilion on the island in the middle of the lake was this one, and she was surprised. It turned out that the people on Mr. Qiu were planning to lock them on the island with the object he supported?

"I escaped halfway!" the boy said angrily.

"Um?"

Cheng Jingchuan had a headache. He didn't think the little prince could run away under their strict guards. He could only say that this matter was tacitly agreed by Mr. Qiu.

"Xiao Cheng... General Cheng doesn't believe it?" The young man just raised his chest and the sprained waist was filled with severe pain. He screamed.

Mo Li finally couldn't stand it anymore.

Sprains are often common, but if sprains caused by excessive force are not treated properly, they can easily leave hidden dangers.

"If I were you, I wouldn't continue to hold on."

"who?"

The boy was startled and when he looked back, he saw a person slowly walking over the bushes.

He looked like frost and snow, with extraordinary temperament. Under the reflection of the fire, he looked like a god among immortals from a distance, and was almost wearing a Taoist robe.

The guards wanted to surround each other, and Cheng Jingchuan hurriedly stopped him.

"This is the folk miracle doctor who was ordered by King Ning to enter the palace before." Cheng Jingchuan said very skillfully. The few stupid guards under his command were mostly smart. He put away his weapons after hearing this, but his eyes were still vigilantly sweeping Mo Li.

Some people even tried to search around, suspecting that Master Meng was hiding around.

Meng Qi, who had moved to the roof of the Imperial Medical Office long ago: "..."

The little prince looked around and quickly caught a strange feeling on Cheng Jingchuan's face.

"This old man is the miracle doctor whom the father invited to the palace?"

It was probably because of the appearance of Mo Li, the little prince immediately laughed, speaking softly and slowly for fear of making a duck's tone.

"There is no miracle doctor who can help you recover immediately." Mo Li said dyingly.

The little prince's face suddenly collapsed. He waved his hand and let several guards carry him away.

The group arrived at the Imperial Medical Office, and the medical officer ran away with only a few people, and they were afraid to emerge.

Cheng Jingchuan didn't expect them, so he found mugwort and turtle velvet and asked Mo Li to put the needle on it.

"I can't carry you to kneel down to worship the court the day after tomorrow." Cheng Jingchuan had a stern face and did not treat the future king at all.

The little prince did not say anything and was dissatisfied with his eyes.

Meng Qi felt that things became more interesting, so interesting that he almost didn't want to go out of the palace to see Qiu Si's arrangement outside.

Mo Li quickly cured the little prince's back injury, and found that the young man had only learned a little superficial martial arts and was still very incompetent.

The doctor held the appearance of a genius doctor with a long hair and a young face and said a few words lightly, and Cheng Jingchuan's expression suddenly changed.

Because all the outsiders were driven far away, Cheng Jingchuan got angry on the spot: "Your Highness, I have said many times. Don't learn fists and kicks from those guards anymore, they are just playing with you."

The little prince was also furious, but he didn't say it out. He held his breath and said, "You only know that I can study and keep studying. I am not allowed to leave the hall or talk to people casually. Whether you or Mr. Qiu, I say that I am the only one among the father and prince who can read and memorize classics. But I don't want to study, I want to be a general! A real man was born in the world and could not leave a name in the history of the Western Regions. What's the difference between it and the dead wood and dead bones?"

Mo Li paused his hands to pack up the silver needle and looked at the little prince carefully.

He just grew tall and looked childish.

He is only sixteen years old.

Cheng Jingchuan may have heard too much about the words of the little prince, and he refuted without blinking: "Do you think you can become a general if you read a military book? The Han Dynasty master Yan once said that a real man should not be a food for five cauldrons, but a food for five cauldrons when he died! Even if a dead tree and bones are deafening, you need to know that anyone is willing to make food on a plate! After studying for many years, he has learned the same trick that is not astonishing. Those who know you praise your ambitions. Those who don't know will ask you a doctor to see your brain! How far is the Western Regions? Do you really know?"

The little prince was really popular this time and screamed in grievance: "Why don't I know? I have read the map. The Western Regions are not a desert. As for reading military books well... can I still read military books? They care about me more strictly than prisoners. How to sit, how to stand, what books to read every day, and which page to read have requirements. Not to mention "Yu Liaozi" and "Six Strategies", I haven't even found "The Art of War"!"

Cheng Jingchuan blurted out: "I think so."

——People who are familiar with military tactics at least know how to achieve their goals in a roundabout way.

The little prince widened his eyes, and his grievance and anger could not cover his cover: "General Cheng, I thought..."

"I thought I would teach you if I was familiar with military tactics? Besides, I am not a general, so you should call me Zheng Zheng." Cheng Jingchuan showed a headache expression.

The little prince lay down and stopped talking. He looked at Cheng Jingchuan pitifully, looked left and right, muttering: "Mr. Qiu said some time ago that the people of Xiliang were restored? Is there any hope of restoring the country? Will I have the opportunity to launch troops to attack them in the future?"

Mo Li didn't raise his eyes, and he felt the little prince looking at him without a trace.

From the beginning to now, even though you have always been careless and unrestrained, it is actually a test.

Cheng Jingchuan did not stop the little prince from talking casually in front of Mo Li, which "explained" a lot of things, either this miracle doctor was their own, or they could not afford to offend anyone they could not afford to offend.

"Oh, it's all the blame for the Marquis of Jingyuan. He destroyed Xiliang too thoroughly." The little prince's eyes rolled.

Cheng Jingchuan's forehead bulged with blue veins, and he endured it and said, "Your Highness must not anger me, your Highness will not want to know the consequences."

The little prince immediately shut his mouth.

"Also, the Chu army that destroyed the capital of Xiliang, and the people of Xiliang respected and believed in gods and Buddhas, was the Chu nationality Meng. " Cheng Jingchuan suddenly grinned at the young man, and then said expressionlessly, "You don't know too many things."

The little prince looked suspicious and watched Cheng Jingchuan and Mo Li leave the house together.

"Huh." Cheng Jingchuan breathed a sigh of relief after coming out, shook his head, and bowed to Mo Li, "Using the reputation of the national teacher, intimidating the children, and offending the national teacher, I also ask the doctor to apologize for the crime."

The gerbil who threw away the guard's armor and squatted and eavesdropped: "..."

Cheng Jingchuan felt something was wrong and looked up at him.

——The rabbit cannot lie on the beam of the house. Is it indeed a raccoon slave?

Mo Li had a bad premonition, and if this continues, Cheng Jingchuan will almost guess Meng Qi's true form.

"Well, I think the little prince... is straightforward by nature..." Mo Li said calmly, diverting Cheng Jingchuan's attention.

Cheng Jingchuan said awkwardly: "The little prince is curious. With the news I revealed just now, he can spend at least three or five months on it and also give me a sense of peace. Although the little prince can't stand it, he also knew the importance of it before. Maybe he knew that he would not have to pretend to be cowardly in the palace in the future, and he made a little trouble today."

Mo Li shook her head and whispered: "When he said that words that were far away from the Western Regions seemed to be sincere."

Cheng Jingchuan sighed: "Compared to other people's stubbornness, they are very fond of merit, love sex, greedy for money, and are incompetent and stupid... the little prince is already outstanding."

Mo Li looked at him and said, "There is no king available, why not replace it?"
