Chapter 557: House Arrest for the Eighth Prince

"Daddy." The third son of the Murong family was even more distressed when he saw Murong He's reckless appearance, but now that several people were in prison, even if they were worried, they knew that Xuanyuan Mo would not let him go, so he could only wait patiently.

"I don't know how the Nine Emperor Princes and Xuanji are doing, do you know the situation in the mansion?" Murong Xijun said worriedly.

"I'm not very worried about the Nine Emperors and Xuanji, but I'm worried about your mother, there are only two women in the house, I don't know if I will be bullied." Murong He said worriedly, "This time, the third prince has reached the realm of going mad for the throne, and the court will not be at peace!" ”

"It's useless for us to worry here, the most important thing now is to find a way to get out of here." Murong Xijie said with a serious face: "The Nine Emperor Princes and Xuanji are in the other courtyard, they may not know about the affairs of the capital, and the current situation is not favorable to us, everyone in the court and China is in danger, and there are probably no people who want to lend a hand to help us." ”

"There's one more person." Murong Xilang suddenly spoke, and when he saw the puzzled looks of the other two, he kindly opened his mouth to solve his doubts: "Eighth Prince." ”

"Will the Eighth Prince help us?" Murong Xijun glanced at Murong Xilang with some disbelief, and said with some suspicion: "Besides, now that the Eighth Prince is in the field, the distant water can't save the near fire, and if we want to leave here, we can only save ourselves." ”

The atmosphere in the prison became extremely silent because of Murong Xijun's words, and everyone had their own thoughts in their hearts, and it took a long time for Murong He to speak to reassure everyone and say: "I have been in the court for so many years, and I have always believed in a word, let it be. So you also face what happens next with a calm mind. ”

Although Murong He said so calmly, the hearts of everyone present became very heavy, and the road ahead was vast, and no one knew what would happen later.

The angry Xuanyuan Mo returned to the mansion, kicked open the study and walked in, suddenly turned around and said to the entourage following him: "Order, the four father and son of the Murong family refused to admit their guilt, let the people in the cell beat me hard, and no one was allowed to see them without my consent." ”

"Yes!" Seeing Xuanyuan Mo's cruel expression, the entourage was a little scared, and immediately nodded and hurriedly left to do something.

As soon as the entourage left the study, the henchman walked in, handed over a copy of the fold and said, "Master, the eighth prince has already met several ministers of the court today. ”

"Did he think that after seeing a few ministers, he would be able to save those people in Murong Mansion? It's just whimsical. Xuanyuan Mo sneered, and asked a little casually, "The Eighth Prince met with those ministers today?" Did they all agree to save the people of Murong Mansion with the Great Prince? ”

The henchman told all the people Xuanyuan Jue had seen in one breath, and seeing that Xuanyuan Mo's expression did not change in the slightest, he couldn't guess what he was thinking, and said cautiously: "None of the ministers that the Eighth Prince saw today agreed to save people with him, but the Eighth Prince was not discouraged, and seemed to be thinking of other ways to save people." ”

"This kind of person is really annoying." Chu Wanwan's voice sounded in the study, and she walked to Xuanyuan Mo's side with a smile and glanced at the henchman in front of her, before turning her head to look at Xuanyuan Mo and saying: "This kind of person can't set off any big winds and waves, and always makes some things annoying, so it's better to solve them at once." ”

"You mean to let me deal with Xuanyuan Jue?" Xuanyuan Mo thought for a moment and shook his head and said, "I don't want to make too many enemies, as long as he can't hinder my plan, I can open my eyes and close one eye." Besides, with his current power in the court not enough at all, I don't need to spend my mind on him, the most important thing for me now is to speed up the establishment of the crown prince by my father, and to deal with the Murong family and the eldest prince. ”

Chu Wanwan shrugged indifferently, and did not have any expression of displeasure because Xuanyuan Mo refused his proposal.

The henchman looked at the silent Xuanyuan Mo and Chu Wanwan, feeling that his existence was very embarrassing, and he didn't know whether to leave and let the two of them be alone, or to continue to stay.

Xuanyuan Mo was slightly surprised in his heart because Chu Wanwan didn't persuade him anymore, getting along with her during this time made Xuanyuan Mo's impression of her also change a little, and after thinking about it, what Chu Wanwan said was not wrong, although Xuanyuan Jue may not be able to rescue the people of the Murong family, it is very annoying to always be distracted by the situation, and now his energy is on the throne, it would not be a good thing if he could have less trouble.

After thinking a lot, Xuanyuan Mo finally spoke again and said to his henchman: "Since the Eighth Prince wants to be nosy, then I, as an elder brother, must also do my duty to teach him well, and tell him that some things should be done in moderation." ”

"What does the master mean?" The henchman asked with some uncertainty, feeling that Xuanyuan Mo's words were not completely finished.

"Let the Eighth Prince stay in the mansion and reflect on it." Xuanyuan Mo's cold words had already explained his decision.

"Yes!" The henchman is also a smart person, and after following Xuanyuan Mo for so long, he can more or less guess his thoughts, so he didn't dare to delay and went to do things immediately.

"Eighth Prince, there are a lot of soldiers outside the gate who have surrounded the Eighth Prince's Mansion." Xuanyuan Jue was about to go out, when suddenly the subordinates in the house ran to spread the word in a panic.

Xuanyuan Jue frowned, had some doubts in his heart, and asked unhappily, "Who dares to fence my Eighth Prince's Mansion?" As soon as the words fell, Xuanyuan Jue walked towards the door angrily, and sure enough, he saw a group of soldiers besieging the city outside.

"Eighth Prince, please stay!" Before Xuanyuan Jue could take a step out of the gate of the mansion, someone immediately stopped and stopped him, "We were ordered by the third prince to ask the eighth prince to rest in the mansion." ”

"Ridiculous, when was my freedom restricted by the Three Princes?" Xuanyuan Jue roared angrily, angrily pushed the man away, stepped out of the gate of the mansion, and immediately a group of soldiers approached, each holding weapons in their hands, as long as Xuanyuan Jue insisted on leaving the mansion, they would immediately surround him to stop him.

"The Eighth Prince should go back to the mansion and rest." The man who was pushed away by Xuanyuan Jue walked in front of Xuanyuan Jue again, and although he was respectful, he said very strongly, "We are also acting on orders, please don't embarrass the eight princes." ”

Xuanyuan Jue sneered, didn't pay attention to the man's words at all, looked at those people coldly and asked, "Are the third princes going to put me under house arrest in this Eighth Prince's mansion?" Even if he is my brother, he has no right to restrict my freedom, and I will leave the house today to see who dares to stop me. ”

Xuanyuan Jue took two steps forward again, and those people looked at him vigilantly, and they hesitated to make a move. Xuanyuan Jue's entourage and the subordinates in the mansion saw that their master was in danger, and they also looked at each other with weapons and guarded, as long as the other party dared to make a move against Xuanyuan Jue, they would also rush up to protect their master.

"Eighth Emperor Brother, please stay." Just when this tense atmosphere was about to erupt, Xuanyuan Mo suddenly appeared. Originally, Xuanyuan Mo handed over the matter of Xuanyuan Jue's house arrest to his henchmen to deal with, but after the next dynasty, Xuanyuan Mo passed by here and knew that the situation here was a little unoptimistic, so he took the initiative to appear.

Seeing Xuanyuan Mo appear, Xuanyuan Jue immediately rushed over, and was stopped by Xuanyuan Mo's entourage at the moment when he was about to get closer, and the entourage stood between the two to prevent him from being attacked by Xuanyuan Jue.

"You and I have never had anything to do with each other, and we are considered to be well water and not river water, so why should you go against me for a group of outsiders?" Xuanyuan Mopi said with a smile.

"Why is General Murong an outsider? He is the hero of our Beiming country, if there is no general who has fought bravely on the battlefield over the years, how can there be the current peaceful and prosperous era of Beiming country, and the country and the people are safe? "Xuanyuan Jue's righteous rhetoric and Xuanyuan Mo theory.

"General?" Xuanyuan Mo laughed loudly, looked at Xuanyuan Jue with some disdain and said: "The person who stripped him of the title of general is not me, it is my father, and now Murong He is nothing, do you want to be my enemy for this kind of person?" ”

"I don't want to be your enemy, but I can't watch those heroes of the court be brutalized because of your selfish desires." Xuanyuan Jue said with a serious face.

Xuanyuan Mo was not angry by Xuanyuan Jue's accusation, but instead coldly threatened, "Do you know what will happen to you to help them?" ”

Xuanyuan Jue sneered, looked at Xuanyuan Mo without fear on his face and said, "Do you think I will be afraid?" When I decided to help the General's Mansion, I already knew that I was at odds with you, and no matter how you dealt with me, I couldn't stop my determination to save people. ”

Xuanyuan Mo just nodded calmly, sneered and asked, "I know you're not afraid of death, but have you ever thought about the people around you?" For example, your mother, Concubine Xian, Niangniang? And your sister Sixth Princess? ”

"You dare to touch them!" Hearing that Xuanyuan Mo threatened him with Concubine Xian and the Sixth Princess, Xuanyuan Jue angrily wanted to rush over to beat Xuanyuan Mo, but was stopped again.

Xuanyuan Mo looked at Xuanyuan Jue's excited appearance without panic at all, and said with a sneer: "If you stay in your Eighth Prince's Mansion obediently, I can assure you that Concubine Xian and the Sixth Princess have nothing to do in the palace, if you have to meddle in things, then I don't dare to guarantee their safety." ”

"Xuanyuan Mo, I warn you, if you dare to touch a single hair of them, I won't let you go." Xuanyuan Jue angrily yelled at Xuanyuan Mo.

Xuanyuan Mo watched with satisfaction that his warning had an effect on Xuanyuan Jue, and said to the entourage beside him: "Come on, send the Eighth Prince back to the mansion, take a good look, if the Eighth Prince takes a step out of the mansion, you will come to see me." Leaving these warnings, Xuanyuan Mo didn't stay any longer, turned around and left the Eighth Prince's Mansion.

"Xuanyuan Mo, I won't let you go." Xuanyuan Jue struggled to break free of those people's pull, and shouted loudly at Xuanyuan Mo, but unfortunately Xuanyuan Mo went farther and farther, and ignored Xuanyuan Jue's threat at all.

The matter of the eighth prince being placed under house arrest by the third prince caused an uproar in the court, and everyone didn't expect that Xuanyuan Mo would dare to be so arrogant, so rampantly put people under house arrest, and some people even speculated whether Xuanyuan Mo was so arrogant and arrogant because the emperor was ready to make him the crown prince and pass the throne to him.

Xuanyuan Mo became more and more arrogant, which made the people in the court panic and made everyone dare not speak. Those who offended Xuanyuan Mo were dismissed from their official positions at best, and even their lives could not be guaranteed.

The court was made into a miasma by Xuanyuan Mo, and the imperial concubines in the harem became more domineering because of their son's power, and now even those concubines who were lower than her rank asked her to ask her for peace every day, and they also began to deal with some harem matters in power, and they didn't take the queen in their eyes at all.

Some concubines couldn't get used to her domineering, and deliberately resisted but were taught a worse lesson, and some had to give in to the imperial concubine because they were afraid, and now the entire Beiming Kingdom was made by Xuanyuan Mo and the imperial concubine to complain.
