In a word, the expressions on Mo Yichen and Mu Xiyue's faces changed.

I had long known Lei Tianchen's intention to come over this time, and Mo Yichen had also inquired about the news, even if he had already prepared, he was still a little worried in his heart, after all, the position of the eighth prince of Chonglou in the heart of the emperor of Chonglou was not as good as ordinary people.

"There is the emperor's decree of marriage between us, even if Lei Tianchen asks to marry, the county lord of Xiyue is not within the scope."

Mo Yichen said as he pulled Mu Xiyue a little closer, and the tension in his heart was well hidden, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.

His gaze swept over Mu Xiyue and Mo Yichen's faces, the corners of Ye Xiaoyan's lips were slightly raised, and there was a slight smile on his face: "The holy decree only refers to marriage, but you are not married after all, are you?" Although the eighth prince of Chonglou is an idle prince, everyone knows that this idle prince can cover the sky with a wave of his hand, and the meaning of the county lord of Xiyue to the eighth prince does not need to be said, you also know it in your own hearts, if Lei Tianchen brings something enough to make your emperor excited, what the final result will be, then it is impossible to say. ”

While speaking, Ye Xiaoyan's gaze lingered on the two of them, and a light smile appeared between his eyes, obviously, his words had been listened to by them, and in this way, things would be much easier.

Feeling the strength of Mo Yichen's hand, Mu Xiyue's expression changed slightly, and without waiting for him to speak, he opened his mouth first: "Since I have already received the heirloom jade of Pingyang Palace, I will not change it again, I believe that the emperor is a Ming monarch, and he will not use me as a weak woman in exchange for benefits!" ”

"I have long heard that the county lord of Xiyue is a strange woman, and now that I see you so chaste, it is really eye-catching, no wonder the eighth prince of Chonglou took so much effort to come and ask for marriage!"

Ye Xiaoyan listened to Mu Xiyue's words, a big smile bloomed on his face, and he didn't seem to realize that his chips had weakened because of Mu Xiyue's words.

The expression on Mo Yichen's face changed slightly, and when he heard Mu Xiyue's words, a warm current flowed in his heart, and his whole body relaxed, and he turned around and looked at Ye Xiao Yan, as if he thought of something, and the expression in his eyes changed.

"You didn't seem to venture to us just to be reminded, did you? The four princes have always been clear, but they are not people with such a temperament! ”

As he spoke, Mo Yichen raised his head and looked at Ye Xiao Yan, and a trace of inquiry flashed in his eyes.

Ye Xiaoyan is a person who always does things with a purpose, and he will never do things that are not beneficial to himself, he has been doing Tai Chi for a long time just now, and he will definitely not just come to wake up.

"General Mo is really sharp!" Ye Xiaoyan exclaimed, and the moment on his face was stunned, he changed to a smile again: "I came to you with all my might, naturally there are some things I want to discuss with you." ”

"The way the four princes negotiate with others is really different!"

Hearing Xiao Yan's behavior last night, Mu Xiyue's face was a little cold, and as she spoke, her clear eyes looked at Ye Xiao Yan, and the corners of her lips hooked up with a touch of disdain.

"Hehe......" Ye Xiaoyan knew that Mu Xiyue was narrowing his face about yesterday's incident, and his face couldn't help but show a touch of embarrassment, and then he turned his face to look at Mo Yijian, and saw that he seemed to be waiting for the words behind, so he continued: "Linglong Bead is a unique magic weapon in my Chonglou, plus because of my mother, I naturally know the secret of this Linglong Bead better than you, if the agreement between you and me is reached, I may be able to help you a lot."

Listening to Ye Xiaoyan's words, Mo Yichen's face couldn't help but change a little, what he said was true, even if he had checked a lot of information over the years because of the taboo of Linglong Zhu, now he only knows a little bit about the skin, and he can't compare with a person like Ye Xiaoyan who knows his inside, if he has his help, things may be much easier, but ......

"Why are you helping us?"

Mo Yichen said as he counted, his deep eyes swept over Ye Xiaoyan's face, and there was a bit of scrutiny and exploration between his eyes, just like what I said before, Ye Xiaoyan is a person who never wastes his efforts.

Having said that, Ye Xiaoyan no longer sold Guanzi, raised his head, looked at Mo Yichen with his eyes, and his face sank.

"I know, the matter of Shengde Temple, you have already found out about the mother concubine, and now because of the case of the queen's mother's family, the mother concubine is on the cusp, and this matter can no longer be involved with the mother concubine!"

While speaking, Ye Xiaoyan's face was a little more solemn, although he had tried his best to suppress the restlessness in his heart, but the uncontrollable emotions in his eyes still let Mu Xiyue see it.

"You mean, the matter of Queen Chonglou has nothing to do with Concubine Yan?"

Mu Xiyue accurately grasped the important information in Ye Xiaoyan's words, and the expression on her face couldn't help but change a little, and her heart couldn't help but tremble.

"This matter, it's a long story, although seeing is believing and pointing the finger at the mother, but the truth is not like this, plus the matter of the Shengde Temple, if it can't be clarified, the situation will be even more unfavorable to me and the mother, this matter, we can also be regarded as mutual assistance and mutual benefit."

Ye Xiaoyan sighed, raised his head and looked at Mu Xiyue and Mo Yichen, compared to the playfulness just now, his face was now a little more dignified.

These words are true, now Chonglou is not as calm as it seems, the forces of the DPRK and China are divided into two forces, one is Concubine Yan's side, and the other is the queen's side, but the original flat state can still maintain balance with each other, but now it suddenly falls to one side, Emperor Chonglou will definitely make a move, and Concubine Yan and Ye Xiaoyan are also under pressure.

Originally, he was not interested in the affairs of the Chonglou royal family, but this matter was vaguely related to the affairs of Shengde Temple, so Mo Yichen had to investigate.

"I don't have any interest in your affairs, if you really want to help each other and benefit each other, then find Master Huixin first!"

Mo Yichen pondered for a moment in his heart, turned his face, and looked at Ye Xiaoyan with deep eyes, with a solemn expression on his face that he didn't dare to look directly.

When a word landed, Mu Xiyue felt a force rushing from her wrist, and before she could say a word, the person had been pulled by Mo Yichen to the shore.

Looking at the figure of the two leaving, Ye Xiaoyan squinted his eyes slightly in the sun, as if he remembered something, and subconsciously, he clenched his hands.

on the carriage.

Mu Xiyue put down the car curtain, her eyes retracted from the outside of the car to Mo Yijian, and her clear eyes flashed.

"Do you believe in Ye Xiaoyan?"

As soon as the words came out, Mu Xiyue's eyes fluctuated, looking at the expression on Mo Yichen's face, and she couldn't guess a little.

The current situation of Chonglou is not as familiar as Mo Yichen, but listening to the conversation between him and Ye Xiaoyan just now, he also felt something.

The thoughts were brought back by Mu Xiyue's words, Mo Yichen turned his face to look at her waiting for his reply, reached out and gently stroked her head, the expression on his face was softened, and he hugged her gently.

"Although Empress Chonglou was imprisoned, the political party that supported Ye Xiaoting not only did not defect, but also tried their best to protect the queen and the second prince, coupled with the turmoil in the court, many things are directed at Concubine Yan and Ye Xiaoyan, if the matter of Shengde Temple reaches Chonglou, whether it is from the pressure of the ministers or my Celestial Empire, they will be forced to a dead end, and now Ye Xiaoyan is like this, there is no way out."

While speaking, Mo Yichen stretched out his hand to pin the broken hair between Mu Xiyue's temples behind his ears, and sighed leisurely: "Ye Xiaoyan is the son of Concubine Yan, so he naturally knows the secret of Linglong Zhu better than us, no matter what, it is the most important thing to find Master Huixin now." ”

"Is my aunt really alive? I always have bad dreams these days. ”

Between speaking, Mu Xiyue's eyes turned red, these days, every time in the middle of the night, I would dream that Master Huixin was lying on the ground covered in blood, and her body was cold and not breathing, that feeling made people's hearts gloomy and uncomfortable.

"We didn't find Master Huixin's corpse, there is still hope for everything, don't think about it!"

Between speaking, Mo Yichen stretched out his hand to hug Mu Xiyue a little tighter, a touch of gloom flashed between his eyes, although the words were brisk, but after all, he was comforting Mu Xiyue, Master Huixin was too alive or dead, and he had no bottom in his heart.

Seeing that Mu Xiyue's spirit was a little bad, Mo Yichen asked the coachman to go around a few more times to go to the suburbs, there was no crowd of people, and there was no other sound in the surrounding woods except for the birds, such tranquility just calmed the irritability in his heart.

Sitting by the murmuring river, the breeze blowing on the face, gentle and comfortable, so long of distraction seems to disperse with the breeze, which makes people feel a little calmer.

"If it's really like Ye Xiaoyan said, the emperor changed the holy decree in order to get Lei Tianchen's things, what should I do?"

Mu Xiyue saw Mo Yichen's shoulder, her voice was very soft, but every word came into Mo Yichen's ears very clearly.

Stunned for a moment, Mo Yichen looked down at Mu Xiyue's flickering eyes, his heart ached, and the strength of his arms around her waist increased a few points: "Even if the emperor changes the holy decree, there is no reason for our Pingyang Palace's heirloom jade to be sent out, don't worry!" ”

A warmth emanated from the bottom of her heart and spread all over her body, Mu Xiyue looked up at Mo Yijian's solemn face, reached out and hugged his neck, and the moment she reached it, she imprinted a kiss on his face, and then hugged it tightly, buried her head in his neck socket, and tears fell silently.

I don't know when it started, but I also began to be sentimental in this life.

Feeling Mu Xiyue's body trembling slightly, Mo Yichen's eyes sank, his big hand was on her back, and his voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of scaring her: "Silly girl, unless you don't want me, there is no reason to separate us, don't forget, there is still Concubine Duan Niangniang in the palace." ”

Suddenly stiffened, Mu Xiyue looked up at Mo Yichen, there were tears in her clear eyes, and her long and thick eyelashes were also standing with teardrops, flickering in the sun.

Yes, there is still Concubine Duan in the palace, even if the emperor wants to change the holy decree, it is not so easy, even if Concubine Duan is lukewarm to the emperor for so many years, the degree of favor has not weakened, which shows the importance of Concubine Duan in front of the emperor.

The two stayed by the river for most of the day, watching the sun set in the west, so they got into the carriage and walked back, they seemed to be tired, and they fell asleep in Mo Yichen's arms, until the carriage stopped in front of the Mufu Gate, and then opened their eyes.

"Miss, you're back!" Uncle Qiu seemed to be waiting at the door, and when he saw Mu Xiyue coming back, he hurriedly greeted him, his face was a little nervous, and he said while running: "Three women came to see me just now, I can't drive away, I must see the eldest lady!" ”
