my love

Chapter 35


The two talked openly about the way of governing the country, and they felt that they hit each other very well. Mu Zhiyuan also felt a little bit of sympathy for Duanmu Zongli.

The sun is gradually slanting, the evening wind that blows is a bit chilly, and the homing birds on the old tree branches are singing intermittently and mournfully.

Mu Zhiyuan got Duanmu Zongli's promise to take care of Mu Yunsheng, and he felt a lot more relaxed. He was both ashamed and painful for Yunsheng. After more than ten years of father-daughter love, Mu Yunsheng was more important in his heart than his own life. important.

Recalling the appearance of the child when it was just born, it was carved in pink and jade, unlike other children who were wrinkled and closed their eyes. As soon as Yun Sheng landed on the ground, those eyes that were as bright as water turned around. He hugged her, That soft little guy actually smiled sweetly at him, how soft and warm his heart was at that moment.

He gave all his debts to Prince Xin's Mansion to Mingzhu and Yunsheng. Mingzhu died of dystocia, and he pampered Mu Yunsheng, who had no mother, and did not let her suffer the slightest grievance. She grew up slowly, tender and tender. Nuo Nuo's voice just stayed with him all the time, giving him comfort and peace of mind.

He has always believed that his daughter Yun Sheng deserves the best in the world, and now that she is handed over to Duanmu Zongli, he feels relieved.

On July 26, Li Yuanyu led Shenwuwei back to Beijing to return to his command.

The first time the errand was done so beautifully, the prince of Beiqi was captured alive and gave Beiqi a blow, the emperor was very satisfied.

Asked him about the military affairs of the Northern Army, how to consolidate the defense line of Sangyang Pass, and how to resist the Northern Qi invasion, Li Yuanyu's answer was also good, with unique ideas.

The emperor said that guarding the border, he might not be able to return to Beijing for a year or so, and he was allowed to return to Sangyang Pass after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Li Yuanyu treated the emperor's praise indifferently, without any intention of asking for credit.

The emperor tilted his head and thought for a while, and he should be given some rewards anyway, so he asked: "Yuan Yu, I am usually busy with state affairs, so I will inevitably neglect you sons, and I don't know what you like. You have done a great job, tell me what you want, and I will promise you."

Li Yuanyu was about to refuse when suddenly a figure flashed through his mind, and ripples appeared in his heart. He pulled up his clothes and bowed to the emperor, and replied: "Father, I dare not take credit, but I have something to ask, I hope Your father is gracious."

Seeing his serious expression, the emperor smiled and said, "So solemn, let me hear what Yuan Yu likes?"

Li Yuanyu touched the ground with his head and replied: "My minister has long admired Mr. Mu's daughter, please ask my father to marry me."

The emperor's face changed suddenly. He never expected that Li Yuanyu would make such a request, and said with a calm face, "Except for this matter, I can agree to everything else."

Li Yuanyu leaned over and did not move, he was very persistent, and his tone was firm: "The other ministers don't care, please help me."

"Evil!" The emperor was furious: "Then Mu Yunsheng has absolutely no chance with you. If you are stubborn again, I will punish you severely!"

In a fit of rage, he picked up the red sandalwood inlaid white jade ruler on the imperial case and threw it at Li Yuanyu in the palace. King Su didn't dare to dodge and let the ruler hit him heavily on his shoulder.

The emperor helped the case to his feet, snorted coldly, and with Zhu Minzhi's support, angrily left the Xuanyuan Hall.

Li Yuanyu lay on the ground and did not raise his head for a long time.

When Li Wei returned to Qingxin Palace, he was still angry, so he ordered his servants to go to the East Palace to hear the crown prince, and retreated to the left and right.

Li Yuanxuan was very jealous of Su Wang's great victory back to Beijing this time. He was secretly happy when he learned that he had offended his father, and pretended to comfort him: "Father, the fifth younger brother is too ignorant, and you can do everything according to your temper. Don't get angry with him and hurt the dragon's body."

Li Yan scolded bitterly: "It's a waste of all my painstaking efforts for him, it's really disappointing!"

Now that Li Yuanyu holds the power of the Dingbei Army, the crown prince has long been dissatisfied. Seeing that his father was really angry, he couldn't help provoking: "Father, forgive my son and minister for talking too much. The fifth brother has always been very arrogant. What's the matter with him?" Take it to heart? Let’s just say that this time in Ningchang City, he managed to capture the Fourth Prince of the Northern Qi Dynasty, but he released Xiao Chen on his own without considering the interests of the imperial court. On the contrary, it was those sons and daughters who love each other, and he was very considerate. For a girl of unknown origin, she actually violated the Sacred Heart, so ignorant of the general situation, how can she be the commander of Dingbei? How can she rest assured that he will be entrusted with the task of border garrison?"

The emperor usually attaches great importance to this calm and decent eldest prince. Hearing what he said now, and thinking about Li Yuanyu's affection for Mu Yunsheng, he is really angry, and he is even more dissatisfied with Li Yuanyu. Rubbing his forehead, he said irritably: "It's because I think highly of him. I will send him to guard the imperial mausoleum in a few days, and tell him to reflect on himself! Yuan Xuan, it is confirmed that Mu Yunsheng was born by that sinner. Do you think it should be done?" How to deal with it?"

Li Yuanxuan bowed slightly, and said firmly: "We should cut the weeds and get rid of the roots."

"I entrust this matter to you, Yeying will assist you from the side."

"My son obeys the order!"

The father and son talked in detail for nearly an hour before Li Yuanxuan came out from Qingxin Palace.

On July 28th, the day of Mu Zhiyuan's birthday, the Crown Prince was ordered by the Holy Prince to come to Mu Zhiyuan's birthday in person, because Mu Zhiyuan did not deliberately arrange it, except for a few old friends and those who came uninvited with birthday gifts. King Wenyang and King Su, and no one else.

The crown prince is the most respected, and under the guidance of Mu Zhiyuan, he sat down on the upper seat, said some auspicious words with a smile, and his demeanor was the same as usual.

Li Yuanyu was reprimanded for asking the emperor for a marriage the day before yesterday. Seeing Mu Yunsheng's expression was quite unnatural, and his eyes never met her.

Mu Yunsheng didn't expect so much. Seeing Li Yuanyu returning to Beijing safely, he was really happy for him, and joked: "General Dingbei, why are you so shy after I haven't seen you for so long?"

She speaks without any scruples, but fortunately everyone has taken it for granted. Seeing her innocent appearance, Li Yuanyu couldn't help shaking his head when he thought that his father didn't agree with his marriage with her, perhaps because of her ignorance: "What is your temper?" Can you be more stable now?"

When Mu Yunsheng saw him teaching him a lesson, he snorted softly and said, "I like to put on airs for you, and I will punish you to drink a few more glasses later." Huan Ling'er brought the jug, poured a full glass for Li Yuanyu, and said with a smile : "I must get you drunk today." Li Yuanyu picked up the wine glass with a wry smile and drank it down in one gulp.

Mu Yunsheng nodded with great satisfaction: "Yes, yes, King Su is good at drinking, it's really a face." Turning around, he saw that the wine in Duanmu Zongli's cup had been exhausted, so he went up to fill the pot kindly for him, Said: "Thank you for coming to celebrate my father's birthday."

Seeing that she was in a much more cheerful mood than before, Duanmu Zongli was delighted and smiled at her.

Mu Yunsheng blushed, lowered his head and returned to his seat.

Halfway through the banquet, a prince's personal guard came in and whispered a few words in Li Yuanxuan's ear. Li Yuanxuan listened intently, then nodded, and the personal guard immediately retreated behind him.

Li Yuanxuan stood up and said solemnly: "Mr. Mu's birthday today is supposed to be a feast for the guests and the host, but His Majesty ordered that the remnants of Prince Xin's residence have been hidden for more than ten years, and must be wiped out today."

As soon as the crown prince said this, not to mention Mu Zhiyuan's old friends, even Li Yuanyu was at a loss, and asked in surprise: "Brother Emperor, there are only a few of us here, how can there be any remnants of Prince Xin's mansion? Are you Mistaken."

Mu Zhiyuan suppressed his composure, Mu Yunsheng put the chopsticks on the table lightly, looked at Li Yuanxuan quietly, the prince sneered: "If you don't believe me, you can ask Miss Mu, who is the remnant of Prince Xin's mansion! "

Li Yuanyu was shocked, and turned his head to look at Mu Yunsheng. The latter's calm and unsurprised expression was obviously telling everyone that what the prince said was not false, and King Su was stunned in shock.

Mu Yunsheng got up slowly, and said calmly: "His Royal Highness, please don't hurt the innocent."

Li Yuanxuan chuckled, "That's natural."

He raised his hand to signal to his personal guards to invite Mu Zhiyuan's old friend out of the Mu residence.

Duanmu Zongli and Li Yuanyu didn't leave, and Li Yuanxuan didn't bother with them. As soon as he gave an order, the main hall was filled with the prince's personal guards holding sharp knives.

The prince's cold voice sounded: "Mu Zhiyuan and Mu Yunsheng are the remnants of Prince Xin's residence. His Majesty has an order to kill them both on the spot. Those who dare to stop them will be killed!"

Faced with this sudden turn of events, Li Yuanyu seemed to be in a dream. Seeing that the crown prince was going to put Mu Yunsheng's father and daughter to death, he panicked and left the table in front of Mu Yunsheng, ignoring everything else, and shouted: "Who dares!"

Li Yuanxuan said coolly: "Fifth Emperor brother, can you bear the crime of disobeying the holy order and covering up the crime?"

Li Yuanyu remained silent, but his body did not move half a step because of the prince's words. Mu Yunsheng was grateful in his heart and did not want to hurt him, so he said cruelly: "His Royal Highness Su, I have no blood feud with your royal family. Since I am Now that I have been exposed, there is no need to make false claims with you now. I will tell you the truth now, I wish I could kill you day and night, so stop being sentimental. I approach you only to take advantage of you, you know Is it? I feel disgusted even if I talk to you one more word!"

Li Yuanyu's expression changed, and he said, "I don't believe it!"

Mu Yunsheng laughed loudly, slapped his head in a daze, and said with a mocking smile: "Oh, after all, I should call you fifth brother!"

Li Yuanyu had feelings for Mu Yunsheng, but he did not expect that the two were blood relatives, and even had a deep hatred for the family. Mu Yunsheng's words were thorny, and he felt extremely sad. He was speechless for a while and didn't know what to do. Silly standing silently.

Li Yuanxuan shouted sharply: "Do it!" Suddenly there was a clanging sound in the hall, and the guards surrounded and approached Mu Yunsheng and his daughter step by step.

Li Yuanyu was at war between heaven and man, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly pulled out his sword with a "shua" sound, and swung the sword to stab a bodyguard. For some reason, his feet softened, and the long sword fell to the ground with a "bang!"

Li Yuanyu put his palms on the ground, raised his head with difficulty, and asked the prince in disbelief: "Brother Emperor, are you poisoning us?"

Mu Yunsheng's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly turned his head to look at Duanmu Zongli. Seeing that he was practicing martial arts with his eyes closed at this moment, his clothes were completely wet, and he probably had been poisoned, so he was very worried.

Li Yuanxuan sneered and said: "Father, Shengming, I expected that you would protect these sinners. Don't worry, this medicine will only make the martial arts practitioners weak. After these two remaining sins are resolved, you can go to the father to plead guilty. "

After saying that, the two guards helped Li Yuanyu up and sat on one side. Li Yuanyu was limp and unable to move, so he could only let them manipulate him.

Mu Zhiyuan and Mu Yunsheng had no internal strength, so they were naturally not affected by the drugs, and they could still move freely. Mu Yunsheng supported Mu Zhiyuan and said softly: "Daddy, your daughter is not filial, and you are still troubled."

Mu Zhiyuan shook his head and said with a smile: "Among father and daughter, how can there be any relationship?"

Seeing that Duanmu Zongli had also been poisoned, Li Yuanxuan felt poisonous thoughts in his heart. Such an opportunity is once in a thousand years, and he made up his mind to kill King Wenyang today. As for the soldiers of the Golden Feather Army who followed him, he was not very afraid. Once Duanmu died and the dragons were leaderless, the imperial court had a way to persuade them to surrender.

With a wave of Li Yuanxuan's hand, several guards with knives swung forward, seeing that he and Mu Zhiyuan, father and daughter were about to die by the knife.

At this critical moment, Duanmu Zongli jumped up and landed on Mu Yunsheng's side like an arrow from the string. The bodyguards froze, and where King Wenyang's sword flashed, two of the prince's personal guards were injured. fell to the ground.

The prince was shocked. Duanmu Zongli had also drank the wine from Mu Yunsheng's jug just now, so why wasn't he poisoned?Before he had time to think about it, he sternly shouted, "King Wenyang, do you want to rebel?"
