22. Sorry

Emperor Yan came over this time, in fact, the main reason was to come and see if Mu Ziling would be willing to marry his emperor, and from then on keep to himself, do not do anything beyond the rules, and do his duty well-

Obviously, Mu Ziling's low-eyed and obedient appearance made him quite satisfied.

Of course, there was another reason why he had to come over, and that was what happened just this morning about Li He.

Da Yan has a rule that after the prince reaches the age of fourteen, he will start to go to the court and participate in political affairs, and Yan Wenhao is now eighteen years old, and he has reached the age, but due to his poor health, he has been living in the Lingxiao Pavilion, living in a simple house, and rarely appears.

This is the case, so that the courtiers gradually forget his identity, and their respect for him is decreasing day by day, and they even dare to talk nonsense and speak in front of him.

Li He is one of them, but he will definitely not be the only one.

At best, he's been a bird.

Even if Yan Wenhao is just an ordinary unfavored prince, Emperor Yan will not allow any courtiers to dare to regard the emperor's authority as nothing, not to mention that Yan Wenhao was born to the late Empress Zhuang and is a descendant prince, and Emperor Yan also loves him.

Therefore, Emperor Yan came over and wanted to see if Mu Ziling had married into the royal family, so whether his emperor's body was slowly recovering, as the national teacher said.

At this moment, although Yan Wenhao's face was still pale, his overall spirit was much better than before, looking at his state, Emperor Yan was very happy, and his face also showed joy.

He believed that it would not be long before his emperor would be fully restored.

Let Fuxi send the supplements he brought, and then Emperor Yan cared about Yan Wenhao a few more words, and after about half an hour, he took Concubine De's hand and stood up, as if he came, and the two left together.

As soon as they left, Mu Ziling wanted to withdraw his hand that was being held by Yan Wenhao, "...... You can let go. ”

Yan Wenhao let go of him as he said, and then turned his head to look at him, with a hint of apology in his eyes: "I'm sorry, be modest." ”

“……”

Comprehending the meaning of his words, Mu Ziling's eyes dimmed, and he was silent for a long time before he shook his head and said slowly: "...... I don't blame you. "If you want to blame, you can probably only blame him for being born at that time, and he happened to be the person Yan Wenhao needed.

Yan Wenhao kept staring at Mu Ziling, paying attention to the change in his expression, and when he saw Mu Ziling frowning, with an unconcealable loss and gloom in his eyes, a feeling of displeasure rose in his heart, which made him unexpected, and couldn't help frowning.

He shouldn't have had such a relationship with anyone.

Retracting his gaze, Yan Wenhao suddenly turned around and said to Fuquan who was on the side: "I'm tired, you can help me to rest." "He needs to be quiet.

"Yes."

Fu Quan responded, then glanced at Mu Ziling cautiously, and seeing that he had not moved for a long time, he finally stepped forward and slowly walked towards the inner room with Yan Wenhao in his arms.

After walking a few steps, Yan Wenhao stopped, he turned his back to Mu Ziling, his expression was indifferent, but his tone was still gentle: "Modest, if you want to read, let Duoduo take you to the study, I stayed in Lingxiao Pavilion all day, and I had nothing to do, so I collected a lot of books, there are many types, you should like it." ”

The plurality he mentioned is actually the righteous son of the blessed whole.

Hearing this, Mu Ziling was stunned, he looked at the direction of Yan Wenhao's departure, lowered his eyes, and responded softly: "Thank you, Your Highness." ”

"Hmm."

With a faint response, Yan Wenhao's figure walked through the inner room until he could no longer see it.

At this time, a little eunuch who had been standing aside and waiting quietly suddenly said, "Princess, please come with the servants." ”

When Mu Ziling heard this, he turned his head to look at him, and after seeing his appearance clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, "Are you diverse?" ”

The little eunuch's facial features can only be regarded as ordinary, but when combined on his face, his face looks very beautiful, which makes people can't help but look at it a few more times, and with his naturally smiling eyes, it is easy for people to have a good impression.

The little eunuch nodded with a smile, and then respectfully saluted Mu Ziling, "Yes, slaves are diverse, please come with the slaves." ”

At this time, Mu Ziling had already put away the stunned look on his face, bowed slightly to him, and said indifferently: "Okay, you can lead the way." ”

******

On this side, after returning to the inner room, Yan Wenhao stopped pretending, and Fuquan also let go of the hand that was holding him, and retreated to the side and stood with his head down.

In just a few moments, a man dressed in black fell silently in front of him.

"See Your Highness." The man in black knelt on one knee, raised his hand and clenched his fist, lowered his eyes, and saluted respectfully.

"Dark One, get up." Yan Wenhao glanced at him and said lightly.

The dark one was one of the secret guards that his master trained for him back then, there were seven in total, and these seven secret guards had been secretly protecting him all these years.

As soon as he heard this, he stood up directly.

Yan Wenhao saw him stand up, turned his head to Fuquan and ordered, "You go and wait outside, don't let anyone in." ”

"Yes."

Fuquan nodded, answered, and then bowed down and went to look at the wind and guard the door responsibly.

After Fuquan left, Yan Wenhao did not speak, but put his hands behind his back and slowly paced around the room again and again, his face expressionless.

As for the secret guard who suddenly appeared, called the Dark One, he stood quietly to the side, and he couldn't even breathe.

After pacing three laps unhurriedly, on the fourth lap, Yan Wenhao finally stopped, and then walked to the chair next to him and sat down.

He asked in a deep voice, "What I asked you to investigate, do you have eyebrows?" "Previously, he asked Dark One and Dark Two to investigate the case of embezzlement of military salaries.

Three months ago, the 300,000 military salaries transported by the imperial court to the northwest garrison disappeared for no reason, and the news was transmitted back to the capital.

A month later, Zhou Xin found out that the military salary was greedy by Feng Chu, the governor of the northwest, so Feng Chu was immediately escorted back to the court, and is now imprisoned in Dali Temple, and Emperor Yan sentenced him to be beheaded after the autumn.

At this time, it was less than three months before Feng Chu was to be executed.

Yan Wenhao had heard Xie Jingyu mention Feng Chu before, and knew that his character was upright and reckless, because of the evil done by corrupt officials when he was a child, his father died tragically on the street, so what he hated the most was corrupt officials, and it was impossible to do anything to embezzle military salaries.

What's more, Feng Chu was still a close friend of his uncle Yun Jing before his death, Yan Wenhao believed that his uncle's vision of people must be someone else who really embezzled military salaries, so he must find out who wanted to frame Feng Chu.

Facing Yan Wenhao's gaze, Dark One lowered his head and said: "The subordinates and Dark Er have been secretly investigating, and they have been following the clues until they reached the Muguo Mansion, but after that, the clues were broken. ”

"Mu Guogong?" Yan Wenhao raised his eyebrows, his voice puzzled.

"Yes."

Yan Wenhao held his forehead, thought for a while, and said loudly: "This matter is handed over to Dark Er to continue to investigate, and you go to check whether there is any connection between Mu Guogong and King Huai." ”

"Subordinates receive orders."

After pondering for a moment, Yan Wenhao continued: "You let the dark three go and check if there is someone behind Li He and who that person is." ”

Yan Wenhao knew the several imperial doctors who treated him thoroughly, and he also held their handles in his hands, what happened today, he knew that it would definitely not be an accident.

Li He, although he is so happy and eager for quick success, but he is not a brainless person, this kind of disrespectful words are something he himself will never dare to open up at will, if it were not for someone behind him, if there was no reason, he would definitely not do this.

Squinting a pair of good-looking eyes, he really wanted to know, who would be the person standing behind Li He?
