    One hundred and eighty six cronies

    On February 23, the ninth year of Taichang, when Meng Ju was reviewing documents in the Yamen, Wang Jiu came to report, and Miss Liu Kongqin came to ask for an audience.

    Liu Kongqin led more than 20 Ye family children to live in the provincial compound. Meng Ju specially approved a separate small courtyard for them in the officer's dormitory and ordered the access control to not allow them to enter or exit.  The head of the security office of the Provincial Office compound once reported to Meng Ju that the Ye family acted very low-key and did not usually have contact with the officers of the Provincial Office. They just often left early and came back late, and sometimes they even did not come back for several days in a row.  What are they up to?

    The provincial department doesn¡¯t know what the Ye family is busy with, but Meng Ju knows.

    Meng Ju became the town governor, but his friendship with his acquaintances in the world was not broken. People like Zhu Gong often came to tell Meng Ju that the warriors of the Ye family were fighting with unknown opponents.  The warriors of the Ye family are so fierce and invincible that they can kill so many people on the other side.

    When talking, Zhu Gong smiled and was extremely happy.  There are Ye family warriors stationed in Jing'an, and gangsters from other provinces have their claws chopped off as soon as they reach in. He can enjoy the shade under the big tree, feeling safe and comfortable.

    Meng Ju was also puzzled. Liu Kongqin came over and said he wanted to arrest Shen Tu Jue, but now Shen Tu Jue has not been arrested. Just seeing that she was involved in the gang fight, he didn't know what her intentions were.

    "Please invite Miss Liu to come in - no, I will greet you personally. Wang Jiu, please remember from now on that when Miss Liu comes over, there is no need to announce her, please come in immediately."

    Meng Ju welcomed him all the way out of the hall. Liu Kongqin did not wait in the concierge, but stood under an arbor tree outside the main hall, looking at the tall tree trunks in trance.

    The mottled tree shadows shine on the girl's slender and tall body. She is as graceful and graceful as a young poplar that has just sprouted.

    Meng Ju went up to greet her, and solemnly bowed her hands: "Miss Liu is here, and I feel sorry for you from afar."

    Liu Kongqin raised his head, with the same indifferent look on his face: "Kongqin came here recklessly and disturbed the Governor's official duties."

    "No matter where you are, Miss Liu will be here whenever she comes. You are all eagerly welcomed. Come on, please come in and have a cup of tea."

    Meng Ju welcomed Liu Kongqin into the reception room, asked her to sit down, and said, "Miss Liu, please don't be restrained. You will feel at home here" As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he felt something was wrong: Ye Canan  It's his predecessor, Liu Kongqin may be the former owner of this courtyard, but now he's telling people to "don't be restrained". That's too awkward.

    Meng Ju hurriedly changed his words and said sincerely: "Since I took office, I have been busy with everything. I also know that Miss Liu has a pure and elegant temperament. I, a rude martial artist, have never dared to go and disturb the girl's purity, so I have never visited you. It's very embarrassing.  Ashamed.

    I wonder what happened to Miss Liu when she came here this time?  But what difficulties did they encounter when inspecting Shentu Jue?  If there is anything I can do my best, please don't be polite, girl, just ask.  "

    Liu Kongqin said calmly: "Kongqin is very grateful for Governor Meng's kindness and will keep it in mind. But Kongqin has no other reason to take the liberty to come here this time. He just followed the order of the family leader and told you something."

    Meng Ju was stunned: "Oh? Mr. Ye wants to see me for something?"

    "The head of the family has recently heard secret discussions between the DPRK and China. The imperial court is likely to implement a long-term residency system in Northern Xinjiang in the near future. Officials in Northern Xinjiang will serve for up to fifteen years. Once the imperial decree is announced, officials in Northern Xinjiang will not be transferred.  The head of the family asked me to tell you, Governor Meng, that if you don¡¯t want to stay in Northern Xinjiang for a long time, you¡¯d better make preparations in advance and transfer before the imperial decree is announced. If you, Governor Meng, intend to transfer, the head of the family would like to report to Mr. Bai on your behalf.  Town said item.

    " Governor Meng, you don't have to worry. The head of the family has a very good personal relationship with Mr. Bai. If he comes forward, Mr. Bai will always give him some face."  "

    Meng Ju was very surprised.  The last time I had a big fight with Ye Jianxin at Ye's house, I scolded Ye Jianxin face to face. I thought that the cold-faced handsome middle-aged man would be a stranger even if he didn't hold a grudge against me. Unexpectedly, he was so kind and tipped me off.  He also said he was willing to help him mobilize.

    Yuan Yikang is right, no one can guess Ye Jianxin¡¯s thoughts.

    Meng Ju thought thoughtfully: "Is Zhang Yi's memorial true?"

    Liu Kongqin was slightly surprised and said softly: "Mr. Meng is well-informed. It turns out he already knew about this matter. If so, we are in trouble."

    "What did Miss Liu say? I have heard some rumors, but I have never dared to confirm them. You told me the exact news. I am very grateful to the Ye family for telling me this, and I will keep it in mind."

    "Well. Regardless of whether you want to stay or leave, Governor Meng, please make your decision quickly. The head of the family estimates that the imperial decree will be issued soon, and it won't be too long."

    &nbspAfter finishing talking about the main topic, Liu Kongqin stood up and left Yingying, and Meng Ju sent her out.  Walking on the tree-lined road of the courtyard, Meng Ju asked her: "Miss Liu, do you have any clues about the pursuit of Shen Tu Jue?"

    Liu Kongqin nodded and said lightly: "There are some clues, we are still chasing them."

    "Is Shentu Jue still in Dongping?"

    "He is also in Dongping. It is said that he joined the Black Wolf Gang and became the sub-rudder. But he is very cautious and keeps wandering around. We can't catch him."

    Meng Ju paused, frowned and asked, "Has the Black Wolf Gang already set up a branch in Dongping Province? I don't know at all."

    Liu Kongqin said calmly: "The Black Wolf Gang brought four incense sticks here. They have never shown their faces or paid homage to the mountain. They have not set up poles or burned incense to open the church. It is not surprising that you don't know about them, sir."

    Meng Ju was secretly speechless, because he had a lot of contact with Zhu Gong and the others, and because he had been a criminal case officer, he also knew some slang and roughly understood what Liu Kongqin meant.  But listening to such an elegant, quiet and cool girl speaking slang, it felt really strange.

    "The Black Wolf Gang doesn't set up an incense hall and doesn't charge protection fees, so why do they send people here?"

    "We don't know either. In order to capture Shen Tujue, I clashed with them many times. They suffered a lot of casualties, but they still linger and refuse to leave Dongping. It's really strange."

    Liu Kongqin didn¡¯t know the reason, but Meng Ju could roughly guess the reason.  The Black Wolf Gang wants to take root in Dongping at all costs, and it should be aimed at themselves.  The Black Wolf Gang is the outpost of Tuoba Xiong's forces.  His wings are growing day by day, and he is at odds with Tuoba Xiong's power. Wouldn't he be concerned?  It used to be the Yuelai Pawnshop. After the Yuelai Pawnshop was raided, the other party simply stopped setting up a stronghold and followed the example of Yinghou of the Southern Tang Dynasty to operate underground.

    Meng Ju felt heavy at the thought that his enemy was such a powerful terrorist force that had penetrated every corner of northern Xinjiang.  He said: "Miss Liu, if you go to war with the Black Wolf Gang next time, say hello to me and I will send someone to help you."

    Liu Kongqin turned her head and stared at Meng Ju for a while. She said clearly: "Governor Meng, there is no need for outsiders to intervene in the revenge of the Ye family. We understand the Governor's kindness."

    Meng Ju had already guessed that she would answer this way, and he said: "Miss Liu, you misunderstood. It's not that we want to interfere in the Ye family's revenge plan, it's just that the Black Wolf Gang is the enemy of our Dongling Guards, even without Governor Ye  We are fighting them to the death over the matter. Now that they dare to invade Dongping, the Dongping Mausoleum Guards will never give up.

    Ms. Liu, the warriors of the Ye family are highly skilled in martial arts and have extraordinary skills.  But what you have to deal with now is a super gang that spans the five provinces of northern Xinjiang, has nearly a hundred branches and incense halls, and 30,000 children.  This kind of power cannot be dealt with by more than twenty of you.  We have a common enemy. Isn't it natural that we should fight together?  "

    Liu Kongqin lowered her head and frowned in thought. She walked silently on the road to the provincial office. Her snow-white clothes reflected the colorful shade of the trees, and her figure in white clothes like snow looked elegant and delicate.

    Walking beside her, Meng Ju could not help but be intoxicated when he smelled the elegant girl's fresh body breath, which was like sandalwood and grease.  This scene reminded him of the scene in his previous life when he was walking side by side on the campus boulevard with the woman he first loved.

    "Governor Meng, you are absolutely right."

    Liu Kongqin suddenly spoke, and Meng Ju couldn't recover for a moment: "Huh?"

    "We are outnumbered and the enemy is outnumbered, so we should not stick to the rules. Moreover, the head of the family also told me before he came that if there is anything that cannot be resolved, I can ask you, Lord Meng, for help."

    The girl spoke slowly, her fair and beautiful face scorching in the sunlight. She said uncertainly: "I think joining forces with you, Governor Meng, to deal with the Black Wolf Gang, shouldn't count as losing the prestige of the Ye family, right?  "

    "Of course it doesn't count, of course it doesn't count! If you win, you will have prestige. No one cares how you win."

    Liu Kongqin said sadly: "Yes, only by defeating the black wolf can we avenge Miss Ye. Governor Meng, thank you!"

    Looking at the girl¡¯s melancholy face, Meng Ju¡¯s heart skipped a beat.

    Ever since she met Liu Kongqin, she has always had a cold and cold face. She has never seen such a fragile and pitiful side. It seems that she is leading the team to hunt down Shen Tu Jue.  You suffered a lot, right?

    Murong Yi¡¯s letter came one day later than Liu Kongqin¡¯s. He told Meng Ju that the imperial court¡¯s policy towards Northern Xinjiang would undergo major changes. If Meng Ju did not want to stay in Northern Xinjiang for a long time, he could find a way to transfer Meng Ju out before the imperial decree was issued.  The Murong family's previous promise is still valid, and Meng Ju can serve as a deputy brigade commander in Luojing Jinwu Guard.  But if the imperial court decrees that all officials in northern Xinjiang will be closed down, it will not work well.

    In the past few days, Meng Ju has also been thinking deeply about this issue.

      Compared to the barren and cold frontier fortress of Northern Xinjiang, Meng Ju certainly prefers the prosperous Luojing, but Meng Ju really doesn¡¯t want to go back. Here in Northern Xinjiang, he is a powerful supervisor of the entire province, and he holds the power.  Life and death are in the palm of your hand; if you go back, what arrangements can you make?

    Bai Wusha and Murong Yi sent themselves to Northern Xinjiang, hoping that they could contain Tuoba Xiong and kill Shen Tujue to avenge Ye Canan.  I had boasted a lot in front of them, vowing that I could do it - but now, not a single task has been completed.  If he just slipped back like this, what would Bai Wusha or Murong Yi think of him?

    Will they still value themselves so much, support themselves with all their strength, and entrust themselves with important responsibilities?

    Meng Ju answered himself: It¡¯s impossible.

    A cat that dares not catch mice is unlikely to be appreciated by its owner.  In the eyes of the Luojing bosses, the reason why Meng Ju is valuable is because he is not afraid of Tuoba Xiong and can stand firm and confront Tuoba Xiong.  If you leave Northern Xinjiang, it will lose its use value and be worthless.

    No matter Bai Wusha or the Murong family, they will not appreciate a person who talks a lot but is greedy for comfort and afraid of hardship.  Even if they take care of their old relationship and arrange for themselves, they will no longer be able to give themselves a position where they can be independent and perform to their full potential.  Either he was the deputy brigade commander of the Jinwu Guards, or he was serving as a deputy in one of the yamen of the General Administration - Meng Ju didn't really care about his official career, but he was used to the freedom of being the leader, and he could no longer bear the kind of dependence on others.  Live as a petty official.

    ¡°Moreover, he was not willing to go back like this after failing to kill Shentu Jue and Tuoba Xiong, and failing to fulfill his oath to Ye Canan.

    ¡°Then, I¡¯ll just stay!¡±

    Meng Ju felt cheerful at the thought of staying.  After thinking about it carefully, there is no harm in staying.

    Although it is bitterly cold in the frontier fortress, for an official of Meng Ju's level, his daily life and food are taken care of, so his life is not difficult.  Moreover, other officials were worried that they would have to wait fifteen years before leaving, but Meng Ju was not worried about this problem: even Jingmu might not be able to guarantee that he could continue to be emperor for fifteen years, let alone just an order?

    It¡¯s not like I¡¯ve never seen the Northern Wei Dynasty¡¯s court decisions change from morning to night, so why should I be frightened into confusion?  Meng Ju didn't quite believe that the Northern Wei Dynasty was really that strong and could implement this policy for fifteen consecutive years.

    The government of the Northern Wei Dynasty was corrupt, the Murong and Tuoba royal families were fighting in the court, the Xianbei nobles had different intentions and had strong armies, the conflicts between the Chinese and the Chinese were deep, the judicial system was extremely corrupt, there were numerous thieves among the people, and civil unrest was constant - all  The Northern Wei Dynasty lacked all the characteristics that the last dynasty should have.  Contemporary people are accustomed to being numb, but Meng Ju has already seen clearly with the perspective of an experienced person. There has been no dynasty for three hundred years since ancient times, and the Northern Wei regime has actually reached the critical point of collapse. In fact, a small number of Xianbei people rule a hundred times more Chinese people.  It is a miracle that the regime has lasted for so long.

    Meng Ju is sure that there will be a big shakeup in the affairs of the Northern Wei Dynasty soon.  In this era of fierce turmoil, it may not be a bad thing to stay away from the center and control the military power in the frontier to watch the changes in the Central Plains from a distance.

    Having thought about it, Meng Ju responded to Murong Yi, saying that he was grateful to Brother Murong for informing him of the news, but that Governor Ye Zhen had not avenged his great vengeance, Tuoba Xiong and Shen Tu had never been killed, and he would never leave Northern Xinjiang.  The letter was so impassioned that even Meng Ju himself was moved.

    Murong Yi¡¯s reply came quickly. He praised Meng Ju¡¯s loyalty and admired Meng Ju¡¯s loyalty and determination.  He said that the two hundred leopard-type battle armors escorted by the Jinwu Guards were also sent over with the letter. They were scraps that were inventoried at the end of the year in the military arsenal. Brother Meng, don't dislike them and just use them.

    Meng Ju was so happy when he saw the letter.  He wrote to Murong Yi just to sing a high-pitched tone, but he didn't expect that this young master of the Murong family was really honest and gifted him two hundred pairs of battle armors. This was really an unexpected surprise.

    As the days passed, more and more people learned that the imperial court was going to implement a new policy in northern Xinjiang.  The official atmosphere in Northern Xinjiang has become very abnormal. Officials walk in a hurry, with anxiety hidden on their faces.  When acquaintances meet, they all ask each other: "How are you doing, do you plan to leave or stay?"

    The answer is always cryptic: "Hey, who knows? Just listen to the imperial court."

    ??????????????????????????? But anyone with a discerning eye can actually see that the complexions of officials who leave and those who stay are obviously different.

    Most of the officials looked low-key and depressed. Their eyes were dim and their heads were downcast - these must be officials who could not find a way to be transferred. Their future destiny was destined to stay in northern Xinjiang until they retired; only a small number of officials, they  His steps are brisk, his expression is joyful and reserved, and he looks at his colleagues with a look of superior compassion - needless to say, he must have found a way out.

    The style of the New Deal??It also affected Dongping Lingwei.  In the past few days, Meng Ju has received transfer orders from the General Administration one after another to transfer officers under his command back to Luojing or to mausoleum offices in other provinces.

    Meng Judu immediately approved these commercial transfer orders.

    Ouyang Hui of the Integrity Department tactfully reminded Meng Ju that the vacancies for mid-level officers have reached more than 20 people, and there are nearly 100 vacancies for junior officers. The governor cannot let people go anymore, but Meng Ju still followed the approval.  Correct.  He felt that it was not easy for anyone to serve as an official in a different place. Comparing his feelings, he had to endure fifteen years on the frontier. Even he was not very willing, let alone his subordinates.  Since his subordinates can find a way out, why bother to make things difficult for them? Even if he forces them to stay, if he has resentment in his heart, won't he still cause trouble for himself at work in the future?  It's better to just make a good relationship and let him go.

    Those who were able to leave were proud, while those who wanted to stay were disheartened. People in the provincial offices were panicked, and no one was interested in working. Many government offices even had no one there in broad daylight.  At this critical moment, Meng Ju had to express his position many times in public, saying that the town governor would stay with everyone in Dongping, saying that the environment in Dongping is actually no worse than in the mainland, and the provincial office will also improve everyone's welfare so that everyone can live in the frontier.  Be as comfortable as possible.

    Meng Ju didn¡¯t just say it.  He ordered to increase the salaries of officers and soldiers; build new officers' buildings, repair old officers' buildings, improve the accommodation conditions of officers, and improve the food standards in the officers' canteens.

    After a few measures were implemented, more than 200,000 taels of silver disappeared from the provincial department's small account. Meng Ju felt heartbroken and thought of going out to rob.  If possible, he really wanted to kill Zhang Yi, the censor who had made such a bad idea.

    On March 1, Meng Ju heard the news that Yuan Yikang, the governor of Dongping, had received a transfer order from the Ministry of War, notifying him to resign and return to Luojing to report on his duties and prepare to be transferred to the governor of northern Henan.

    There is no doubt that Yuan Yikang is leaving.  He is from the royal family and is very popular. If he doesn't even have this kind of connections, it would be a joke.  What surprised Meng Ju was that before Yuan Yikang left, he sent a post inviting him to have dinner at Tianxiang Tower.

    Meng Ju picked out two calligraphy and paintings by Fan Kuan, a famous painter from the previous dynasty - they were all found in the warehouse, and he didn't know which rich family Donglingwei had copied before - as a farewell gift, he carried them in his arms and went to the appointment.  .  To his surprise, he also saw Yi Xiaodao and Xiao Heng in casual clothes in the box of Tianxiang Tower.

    When the three generals met, they were all stunned for a moment, and then they all smiled: "Governor Meng Zhen is also here to see off Governor Yuan?"

    "Yes, are you two here too?"

    "Well. Governor Yuan is a kind man and has always taken good care of us in the past few years. Now that he is gone, we can't help but express our feelings."

    "Exactly, that's what I think too. Alas, the governor is gone, I really can't bear to leave!"

    "The governor is generous, kind and generous. Where can I find such a good officer in the future?"

    Although Yi Xiaodao's statement was a bit flattering, it was also sincere.

    Although Yuan Yikang did not achieve any political achievements during his tenure, he was kind to others.  As the top military commander of Dongping, he never felt sorry for any of his subordinates, nor did he blush with anyone.  Although they often laugh at him, now that he is really leaving, everyone feels regretful: there will no longer be such a tolerant and easy-to-talk governor, and the good and carefree days before will come to an end!

    Soon, Yuan Yikang also came.  Everyone rushed up to congratulate Governor Yuan on his promotion and sent their own congratulatory gifts. Yuan Yikang was very moved and even said thank you.

    After three rounds of drinking, Yuan Yikang was obviously moved. He said: "I know, I am a person with little ability. In the past few years in Dongping, I have relied on everyone's face and support. Come on, Governor Meng, Mr. Xiao  General, General Yi, thank you for your care over the past few years! I wish you all good health, safety and happiness!"

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? currently

    That night, everyone was very drunk, and Yuan Yikang said some heartfelt words that were unusual in official circles.  He told everyone that it was still unknown who the imperial court would send to take over the position of Governor of Dongping, but according to the current situation, no high-ranking foreign official would be willing to take up the post in Northern Xinjiang. The new Governor would most likely be promoted from the border army system.

    "Of course I hope that the new governor will be Brother Xiao or Brother Yi, but I guess it's unlikely. Most of the people who come will be Marshal Tuoba's people. Everyone also knows that Governor Meng and Marshal Tuoba In short, Marshal has always been there.  Looking forward to being able to reach into Dongping, Brother Meng must change his stubborn temper, otherwise he will really suffer.

    Brother Meng, are you really planning to put your battle armor on the street and start a fierce battle?  Don't do it. When I'm in office, I'm most afraid of you being like this. When I'm here, people can still look down on me. After I'm gone.  .  .  Alas, I still don¡¯t know what kind of trouble Dongping is going to cause, but it¡¯s the common people who will suffer!  "Yuan Yikang spoke confusingly, but everyone understood what he meant.  Meng Ju said: "Captain, don't worry, I will try my best to be patient and restrained."

    Yuan Yikang shook his head and smiled bitterly. He blushed and stammered: "Brother Meng, forget it, forget it, it's not like I don't know your temper.

    Brother Yi, Brother Xiao, Brother Meng, we all get together. This is a rare fate.  Since we are leaving anyway, let me say something special: Brother Xiao is from the local area and controls the city defense of Jing'an. He is highly respected and respected. Most of the officers from Dongping are your children; while Brother Yi controls the field troops of Jing'an.  , able to fight and fight; Governor Meng Zhen was even more impressive. Not only did he have the most battle armor under his command, he also had the power to monitor local civil and military affairs and report directly to the court.

    Three brothers, no matter who the new governor is, as long as the three of you are tied together, he will not be able to do anything to you. Whoever comes to Dongping will have to look at your eyes and act - you must work together!  "

    Yuan Yikang became more and more vague as he spoke. He smelled of alcohol and fell asleep on the table, snoring loudly.

    In the silence, no one spoke.

    Meng Ju quickly glanced at Yi Xiaodao and Xiao Heng, but saw that the two of them were also quickly exchanging glances.

    After a while, Xiao Heng coughed dryly: "Ahem! I'm from Dongping and have been guarding the border in Northern Xinjiang all my life. I don't plan to leave. Governor Meng, Brigadier Yi, you are both from Luojing. What do you want to do?  What's the plan?"

    Meng Ju said calmly: "I just took office not long ago. Even if I want to go back, the General Administration will definitely not agree. I don't think I can leave."

    Yi Xiaodao said seriously: "I want to go back, but there are too many people trying to escape from northern Xinjiang now. There are more than a dozen officials looking to grab a position in Luo Jing, and even the official who sweeps the streets is being robbed. The Ministry of Personnel  Those grandsons from the Ministry of War are very demanding when they ask for money. I am a poor soldier and all my money is spent on women. How can I have money to feed those grandsons?"

    There was another moment of silence, only Yuan Yikang's snoring could be heard.

    Meng Ju: "Captain Yuan, it seems you drank too much."

    Yi Xiaodao: "Hey, I drank too much."

    Xiao Heng: "Well, I drank too much."

    Since the day they gave Yuan Yikang farewell noodles, Yi Xiaodao and Xiao Heng began to like drinking tea.  Every once in a while, they often come to the Mausoleum Office to see Meng Ju for tea. They often talk about current affairs, exchange opinions on the current situation, and chat and laugh over tea.

    Meng Ju also vaguely guessed what Xiao Heng and Yi Xiaodao were thinking.  But since the other party didn't expose it, he just pretended to be confused and didn't mention anything about the alliance.

    Since arriving in Dongping, Meng Ju has mostly seen submissive subordinates.  Yi Xiaodao is free-spirited, smart, and humorous; Xiao Heng is experienced and seasoned. Chatting with them made Meng Ju feel very refreshed and benefited a lot.

    ¡°Everyone feels very worried when talking about the future situation in northern Xinjiang.

    Since the new policy of the imperial court, almost all the royal family members have left Northern Xinjiang. Among the six towns, there have been many vacancies among officials at the level of generals and town generals, and these vacancies must now be filled by Tuoba Xiong.  The cronies filled up.

    "In the past, although Marshal Tuoba was domineering, the senior generals in Northern Xinjiang were all descendants of the royal family. The imperial court could still control the provincial garrison. The overall situation was still stable, and the marshal could not cover the sky with one hand. But now  It¡¯s hard to say.¡±

    Xiao Heng sighed, his eyes full of worry: "The imperial court originally wanted to stabilize Northern Xinjiang by launching this new policy, but unexpectedly it shook Northern Xinjiang. I am afraid that your Majesty and the princes of the dynasty could not have predicted this result in advance.  ? From now on, the Marshal is in great difficulty, and Northern Xinjiang is now in troubled times."

    Meng Ju said nothing. His grudges with Tuoba Xiong were well known to everyone, and his position no longer needed to be expressed in words.  He just glanced at Yi Xiaodao. The relationship between Yi Xiaodao and Tuoba Xiong puzzled Meng Ju.

    Yi Xiaodao was also looking at him, with a bright smile on his face: "Troublesome times are when heroes rise. Governor Meng, don't you think so?"

    Meng Ju smiled and said calmly: "Brother Yi, let's talk to each other!"

    The two looked at each other, feeling the sharpness of each other's gaze, and immediately looked away.
