Chapter 47: The Only Candidate

Mu Yang continued to be polite to Shen Lanying, "If you are not used to living in the inn, Your Highness will come to live in Mufu, I still expect Your Highness's talent to open up my stubborn son." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Shen Lanying's eyes moved, "Lord Toast, shouldn't you still know why I'm here?"

Mu Yang let out an extremely light laugh, like self-deprecation and sneering, "Even if I'm a martial artist who has been fighting horses all year round, I won't even know what's going on in my own family, right?"

Shen Lanying's heart tightened violently, her brain spun rapidly, and then she smiled very naturally, "It is worthy of Lord Toast, even if you are on the front line, a little wind and grass in Lijiang City still can't escape your eyeliner." However, Lord Tusi has a sentence that is wrong, if Zhaoying's purpose is really to stand in line, how can he come here to find you in the open. ”

Mu Yang didn't speak, only frowned slightly.

Shen Lanying continued, "Lord Tusi seems to have misunderstood Zhaoying, you have been fighting on the battlefield for so many years, and you are the benefactor of the imperial court, how dare Zhaoying arbitrarily interfere in the inheritance of the Mufu? Moreover, the Mufu has been standing in Lijiang for more than three hundred years, and in terms of history, it is even older than my Yong Dynasty. In such a long time, there have been more people with ill intentions, but can anyone succeed? Lord Tusi has been in charge of Mufu for decades, and you should know very well in your heart that no matter whether the Yong Dynasty put forward policies, no matter whether the emperor was mediocre or enlightened, the impact on Mufu was really minimal. The only person who can really dominate the inheritance of Mufu is the Mu family itself, and the Yong Dynasty is powerless to intervene. Although Mufu was subordinate to the Yong Dynasty and paid tribute to the Yong Dynasty every year to serve the Yong Dynasty to defend against the Southern Barbarians, in fact, who took the relationship between the monarch and the minister seriously? The so-called loyalty and the so-called feudal officials were nothing more than verbal diplomatic words, and in the final analysis, the relationship between Mufu and the Yong Dynasty was only two kingdoms with close diplomacy. Where did they come from standing in line with each other?"

The more Shen Lanying spoke, the smoother it became, and Mu Yang's expression became more and more serious. In the end, it developed into staring at Shen Lanying deadly, as if she wanted to see her whole person through.

Such an embarrassing atmosphere lasted for a while, and Shen Lanying was a little hairy by him, and thought that she was talking about politics a little too much, which was not in line with Jiang Yuwan's identity, and was thinking about saying something to cover up the past. Suddenly, Mu Yang slapped the table and made a loud noise, and after talking, he himself turned his back to the sky and laughed.

Shen Lanying was taken aback and looked at Mu Yang in horror.

Mu Yang laughed for a while, and then looked at Shen Lanying with an almost loving look, making Shen Lanying even more stunned.

The next moment, the truly terrifying words spit out from the mouth of this Mufu Tusi: "It is worthy of His Royal Highness Zhaoying, every time we meet, I can be shocked once." Sometimes I wonder if His Highness could stay and be my daughter-in-law. ”

it!!

The cup in Shen Lanying's hand fell on the table with a clatter, and the tea flowed everywhere.

"Weichen lost his words! Mu Yang was also startled, afraid that Shen Lanying would be scalded by the hot water, so he quickly pulled her to stand up.

Shen Lanying looked at Mu Yang in horror, "Lord Toast, this joke can't be made......"

Wechen lost his words...... Your Highness, don't take it seriously......"

The two of them changed tables and sat down again.

Mu Yang smiled bitterly and said: "I also understand, if my idea spreads, not to mention that the Holy Lord may directly send an army to destroy us, just the anger of the gentleman who is staying in my eldest son's mansion right now will be enough for us to drink a pot." ”

The gentleman?

It seems that Mu Yang's evaluation of Sikong Yan is not low.

Shen Lanying didn't speak, just lowered her head slightly and made a shy appearance.

Then I heard Mu Yang say: "However, since His Royal Highness also feels that the outside world can't interfere with the inheritance of Mu Mansion at all. So why bother Mr. Fei Jie so much?"

Sikong Yan is known as Mr. Feijie, and the world calls him Mr. Feijie.

Shen Lanying quickly thought of words, and then looked at Mu Yang with a smile, she used to be a singer, and her eyes were definitely infectious, "Lord Tusi, don't call me His Royal Highness, just call me Xiao Jiu." ”

Mu Yang also smiled and said, "Okay, but Xiao Jiu, shouldn't you also change your words?" What are you going to call me?"

Shen Lanying tilted her head and thought about it, and smiled: "Is it okay for me to call you Uncle Yang." ”

Mu Yang originally admired Jiang Yuwan very much, and Shen Lanying was so close that Mu Yang's impression of Shen Lanying was even better.

Seeing Mu Yang nodding in a good mood, Shen Lanying pulled the topic back again, "Sikong went to Brother Mushang's mansion, the purpose is not to stand in line." He just wants to follow your old ideas and be a promoter. ”

"Oh?"

"Uncle Yang, although you have never expressed it, Brother Mu Shang is the first choice for the heir of Toast in your heart, right?"

Shen Lanying had a sweet smile on her face, but Mu Yang's expression became solemn again.

In the eyes of the outside world, it is the second son Mu Xiang who follows Mu Yang every time he goes on the expedition, and it is Mu Xiang who participates in the sacrificial activities with Mu Yang, and the person who is acquiesced by Mu Yang to win over the generals in the army is Mu Xiang, and now it is Mu Xiang who holds the military power in his hands.

In contrast, the people of Lijiang seem to have long forgotten the existence of Mu Shang. Out of grace, out of favor. The two labels were pasted on Mu Shang's head, and almost no one regarded him as the son of Toast.

And Shen Lanying smiled with undoubted confidence, as if she already knew the result. For the first time, Mu Yang felt that the teenage princess in front of him was not so easy to deal with.

The reason why Shen Lanying dared to say this was based on a total of three points.

First, compared with Mu Xiang, Mu Shang has a higher degree of sinicization, and sinicization is the general trend of Lijiang.

Second, Mu Shang's wife is Wang Leyu. Wang Leyu's identity as a girl is very powerful. The probability of the Wang family becoming officials in the court is as high as 90 percent, and although the official positions of these people are not as good as those of Sikong, Sima, Situ, and other big officials, they have many family members! Moreover, the Wang family has always had an unequal relationship with the officials, and they all follow the imperial examination system, which shows that the entire Wang family is a family of high-level intellectuals.

In addition, Wang Leyu's brother is Wang Yichen, who is the world's most famous talent who is not inferior to Sikong Yan, and his range of activities is in the south. He will definitely not let his only sister work hard all his life with a lowly concubine, and sooner or later he will take action to straighten Mu Shang.

Thirdly, and most importantly, Shen Lanying has an intuition that Mu Yang's affection for Siqi is no less than that of Yu Siqi. Otherwise, it really can't explain the fact that he deliberately concealed the fact that Yu Xiqi was alive. If he hadn't been monitoring the dynamics in that small courtyard at all times, how would he know that Shen Lanying had been there?

The fact that he would appear at the gate of that garden is the best proof of this.
