Chapter 159

Xiao Fang hurriedly helped Princess Rou'an to lie back on the bed, but she was finally relieved.

As soon as the emperor left, the queen came in again, saw that Imperial Physician He was still there, knew his temper, and did not go to greet Princess Rou'an first, but anxiously asked Imperial Physician He: "How is the princess's condition?" ”

Imperial Physician He said it again as he said before, and the queen couldn't find out that Princess Rou'an's "illness" was pretended, and a stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

"It's not convenient for people to come and go here, Rou'an, you take my soft sedan chair and go back to your palace to raise it." The queen asked Imperial Physician He to go down to prescribe a prescription, and she took Princess Rou'an back. It's still not very safe here, what if the emperor gets suspicious again.

When I just walked to the door, I met Shang Qirui and Mu Wenhan again, and the two of them came over together.

Looking at their appearances, you know that there is a lot to ask. Shang Qirui was better, seeing that there were so many people present, and he didn't ask anything else. Mu Wenhan kept staring at Princess Rou'an, but the strange thing was that he didn't ask much, just asked a few words very usually, and then turned around and left.

This made Princess Rou'an's heart sour again, and she felt that she had spent so much effort in vain to pretend to be sick.

"I'll send Rou'an back, and the queen mother will go and do your job." Shang Qirui had too many questions in his heart, and he was not polite at all, and insisted on sending Princess Rou'an back.

The queen was also very busy, and she knew that the current situation was no big deal for the time being. And Rou'an's affairs, he was not afraid that Shang Qirui would know, and he didn't say much, and told his subordinates to send them to Princess Rou'an's palace.

Shang Qirui watched coldly. The empress didn't seem to be too worried about Princess Rou'an's condition, she was more worried about the emperor's affection. And Xiao Fang, who followed Princess Rou'an's sedan chair, had a happy expression on her face if she was not careful.

These small details all show that there is something wrong with Rou'an's "disease". However, there are many people along the way, and he is not easy to ask anything.

finally arrived at Princess Rou'an's palace, but found Mu Qingge waiting there. She really came in, and Shang Qirui became more and more sure of Princess Rou'an's "illness". It must have been made by Mu Qingge.

"Miss Wood. You are really like a god, the Shijian envoy really sent someone to inquire about the princess......" As soon as Xiao Fang saw Mu Qingge, she was excited, and her face was full of excitement when the Shijian envoy came to inquire about the news.

Mu Qingge looked at Shang Qirui's expressionless expression. I felt a little embarrassed. Coughed. said: "Xiaofang, your Highness is also a guest, you go and pour a cup of tea for Your Highness." ”

Xiao Fang listened. Only then did he remember that Shang Qirui was still beside him, and he didn't seem to know about Princess Rou'an's pretending to be sick, so he was suddenly very embarrassed. But he wasn't very worried, with Shang Qirui's concern for Princess Rou'an, he would definitely not shake this matter out. So he stuck out his tongue and jumped out to pour tea.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on?" Shang Qirui sat down and stared at Mu Qingge, "Didn't you enter the palace?" ”

"Isn't it just pretending to be sick?" Mu Qingge deliberately said very easily, "Isn't it better than your method?" Do you think that woman can really coerce Shijian envoys? ”

Shang Qirui also knew that his method was not good, but he was still very angry about Mu Qingge. Pretending to be sick can be big or small. The emperor is already very angry now, in case he finds out again, this matter is Mu Qingge's ghost behind his back, Mu Qingge can't eat and walks around.

"Princess, what's wrong with you? Don't seem happy? Mu Qingge also saw that Shang Qirui was unhappy, knowing that he was kind, and he didn't care about him, so he saw Princess Rou'an's preoccupied appearance. Her medicine can indeed make people look sick, but a person is unhappy, but he can still see it at a glance.

"......No," Princess Rou'an disguised, "I can't marry Shijian, how can I be unhappy?" ”

In this way, it is even more indicative of unhappiness. Mu Qingge looked at Shang Qirui, and Shang Qirui made her a "Mu Wenhan" mouth shape.

"Well, since the matter is settled for the time being, I won't stay here to disturb the princess's rest." Mu Qingge stood up, "Princess, if you take my medicine, your body will really be very tired, you still have to rest more." ”

Mu Qingge said as he glanced at Shang Qirui and motioned for him to follow him out.

Shang Qirui had no choice but to stand up and say goodbye, and comforted Princess Rou'an softly.

When he walked to the door, he happened to meet Xiao Fang who came in with tea, and Xiao Fang looked at the two of them in surprise: "Why are Your Highness and Miss Mu leaving?" ”

"The princess needs to rest more, you take good care of her, and we'll go first." Mu Qingge said to Xiao Fang.

Need more rest? Isn't it a fake disease? Xiao Fang was a little puzzled, walked a few steps, and asked Princess Rou'an strangely: "Princess, how did they go......"

Before he finished asking, he found that Princess Rou'an was secretly shedding tears, and immediately panicked: "Princess, why are you crying?" ”

Mu Qingge and Shang Qirui walked out of Princess Rou'an's palace gate, and walked to a relatively secluded place in the imperial garden before Mu Qingge stopped and said to Shang Qirui: "What happened at the banquet today?" Do you tell me in detail? The princess's love is not right, there must be something. ”

Shang Qirui told Mu Qingge what happened at the banquet, and said, "Xu is that your brother was not particularly enthusiastic about Rou'an just now, so she felt uncomfortable...... However, I see that your brother is also uneasy, and he may be a little hesitant......"

Mu Qingge somewhat understood, Mu Wenhan was such a smart person, of course he could guess what the emperor had from Princess Rou'an's appearance. In this case, Mu Wenhan's mind is restless, and he is afraid that he will not only hesitate. He's afraid he's already made a decision.

With a thought in his heart, he thought of a possibility, Mu Qingge nervously grabbed Shang Qirui's arm and asked, "Where did my brother go?" ”

"Huh?" Shang Qirui was stunned for a moment and shook his head, "He left first, I followed Rou'an to find you, but I didn't pay attention to where he went, maybe ...... What's wrong? ”

"I think, my brother may go to find His Majesty......" Mu Qingge said as he raised his leg and left. I want to ask someone.

"Don't worry, let's ask first. You said that your brother went to find his father, why? Shang Qirui hadn't fully reacted yet, and while limping after Mu Qingge, he pulled her to prevent her from going too fast, and was still asking questions in his mouth.

"My brother knows that His Majesty is going to point Miss Liu Qi to him." Mu Qingge slowed down his pace and helped Shang Qirui forward, "But." If my brother has a princess in his heart. Now that he has learned that the princess will be married to Shijian, I guess it is very likely that he will go to explain the situation to His Majesty, and ask to marry the princess instead. ”

If that's the case, this is for Shang Qirui. Good news, of course. So when he saw Mu Qingge frowning, he was even more puzzled: "That's it." Isn't it good? ”

"It's not bad." Mu Qingge sighed and said, "Of course I know. This is the best for the princess. Moreover, if the elder brother also likes the princess, it must be a happy event. However, as soon as he came, now his majesty was already very angry because of the princess's sudden 'illness' this time. Although he can't catch us, it doesn't mean that he doesn't have doubts in his heart. If the elder brother said that he wanted to marry the princess at this time, His Majesty would definitely think that the elder brother and the princess had joined forces to destroy the marriage between the two countries. I don't know what His Majesty's reaction will be, but it's certainly impossible to readily agree...... Second, no matter what others think, my grandfather would definitely not agree to this marriage until His Majesty spoke. Grandfather pinned all the hopes of the Mu family on his brother, and now that his brother is going to marry a princess, grandfather doesn't know what he will be angry about......"

Shang Qirui just didn't think so far just now, and when Mu Qingge said this, of course he understood everything in his heart. For matters related to the royal family, he is more empathetic than Mu Qingge, of course, he is very sure that neither the emperor nor Mu Qi will agree to this marriage. Originally, I thought that if Mu Wenhan and Princess Rou'an liked each other, everything could be solved. Now it seems that I was still too careless. In vain, he has lived two lives, and he doesn't have a teenage girl who thinks thoughtfully.

For a moment, neither of them knew what to say. Walking out of the Imperial Garden, as soon as Shang Qirui looked up, he saw Ding Mo who had just passed by, and hurriedly stopped him.

Ding Mo hurriedly came over to say goodbye, but his expression was very uneasy. Shang Qirui is really good to him and Zhimo, not only good, but also the grace of knowing him. Therefore, Ding Mo has always been obedient to Shang Qirui. However, today he disobeyed Shang Qirui's orders, although what he did was for Shang Qirui's good, the final result looked good. However, Ding Mo still felt sorry and ashamed for Shang Qirui in his heart, and couldn't help but want to avoid it. At this time, when I saw Shang Qirui, I felt even more uneasy. It's not that I'm afraid of Shang Qirui's punishment, but I'm mainly afraid that Shang Qirui will be disappointed in him.

"How are you kid, you know how to do things behind my back? Don't even take my words to heart, aren't you too daring? Shang Qirui really caught Ding Mo and reprimanded him.

Ding Mo didn't dare to say anything, and hung his head cautiously, but he couldn't help but glance at Mu Qingge.

"Okay, forget about this matter, no wonder Ding Mo, who told you to do things by yourself so recklessly?" Mu Qingge gently pushed Shang Qirui, if it was in normal times, she would not help Ding Mo speak. Although Ding Mo helped her, Ding Mo was also Shang Qirui's person, which could not be changed. But today, she was still in a hurry to find Mu Wenhan, so she couldn't stay still.

Of course, Shang Qirui understood Mu Qingge's anxious mood, and he wasn't really angry with Ding Mo, but he just felt that such things couldn't happen again and again, so it was necessary to remind him.

Now that Mu Qingge spoke, Shang Qirui naturally gave her face and said to Ding Mo: "Since it is Qingge who intercedes for you today, forget it, but there will never be a next time." Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude, it's useless for anyone to intercede at that time. ”

Ding Mo nodded hurriedly, indicating that there would never be a next time. I was very surprised in my heart, I didn't expect Mu Qingge's words to be so useful. Shang Qirui's favorite thing is the disobedient subordinates, in the prince's mansion, if anyone dares to be disobedient, the end must be miserable. He also thought that he would at least be punished this time, but he didn't expect it to be so light. Regarding Mu Qingge's position in Shang Qirui's heart, Ding Mo had a new definition in his heart.

"Okay, have you seen Mu Gongzi?" Shang Qirui asked Ding Mo by the way, but he didn't report any hope.

"See, Mu Gongzi has gone to the imperial study." Who knew that Ding Mo really knew, and replied quickly.

"Went to the Imperial Study?" Mu Qingge was startled, and ran away. After running two steps, he turned back and told Ding Mo, "Take good care of Your Highness." ”

After speaking, he continued to run forward, completely ignoring the etiquette of everyone's ladies.

"This ......" Ding Mo was dumbfounded.

"Help me to keep up." Shang Qirui couldn't catch Mu Qingge, his legs were not good, he couldn't run, he could only stare at Ding Mo.

"Oh, it's ......" Ding Mo was stunned, and he didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly helped Shang Qirui and chased in the direction of Mu Qingge.

said that Mu Wenhan met Princess Rou'an. Seeing her fragile appearance lying on the bed. I felt a pain in my heart. I couldn't breathe anymore, so I hurriedly said goodbye. Without hesitation, he went straight to the emperor's imperial study.

Although today's banquet was when Princess Rou'an appeared, something went wrong. But overall. It's not too embarrassing. Finally survived the scene. However, the next thing was more difficult, and he had to give an explanation to the Shijian envoy. This explanation is either the lively Princess Rou'an. Either a princess who is much better than Princess Joan in all aspects.

However, Imperial Physician He said that Princess Rou'an's body is not something that can be adjusted in a short period of time. As for the more noble princesses, it's not nothing, but they are too young, and he can't bear it. Now, what should I do? The emperor wanted to scold people angrily, why did he get sick at such a time? Is it really sick?

was getting angry, and heard the eunuch outside report: "Your Majesty, Mu Gongzi asks to see you...... The servant said that you don't want to see the guest now, but Mu Gongzi insisted on letting the servant pass through, saying that there is something very important and you want to see the emperor, you see ......"

The emperor really didn't want to see anyone now, and if it was someone else, he would definitely have asked the eunuch to blow him away. But when he heard that it was Mu Wenhan, the emperor's irritable mood calmed down a little. Knowing that Mu Wenhan has always been steady, since it is said that there are important things, then there must be important things. So, let's see each other.

"Let him in." The emperor turned around and sat down, not wanting Mu Wenhan to see that he was too out of shape.

"Weichen knocks to see His Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Mu Wenhan knew what he was doing, and as soon as he came in, he knelt on the ground, and he was ready to kneel all the time.

"Okay, don't make such a big salute, get up and talk." The emperor has always been gentle with Mu Wenhan, and this time is no exception. But this time, when Mu Wenhan heard the mildness, he felt very unhappy in his heart. The emperor loved him a lot, but he was going to let him down.

"Wechen still knelt down and said." Mu Wenhan didn't move, and he didn't dare to look up at the emperor.

"What's the matter? Is it so strict? Seeing Mu Wenhan's attitude, the emperor felt faintly uneasy and a little unhappy, so he stopped calling him up and asked directly.

"Weichen ......" Mu Wenhan hesitated, and he didn't know how to phrase it appropriately, and he couldn't think of anything about the flying literary style on weekdays now. In the end, he simply closed his eyes and said directly, "Weichen fell in love with a woman and wanted to ask His Majesty for marriage." ”

"Oh?" A strange feeling welled up in the emperor's heart, if it was in normal times, Mu Wenhan said this, he would definitely be happy. However, at such a time, when he said this, the emperor felt strange in his heart, "You also heard it at the banquet today, right?" I will give marriage to the son of Jinke, of course, you are indispensable as the champion. Tell me, which woman do you have your eye on? See if I'm the same as you think? ”

However, after all, this is also a happy event, the emperor asked good-naturedly, and hinted that he had already set a candidate for him.

Mu Wenhan felt more and more guilty in his heart, gritted his teeth and said, "Princess Rou'an! ”

"Smack!" The emperor was furious, and slapped the table next to him, shaking the cups and cups on the table to jump.

"What do you say?! Say it again! ”

"Wechen fell in love with Princess Rou'an, and I hope that His Majesty will be fulfilled and the princess will be married to Wechen." After saying it, Mu Wenhan is not so scared now, no matter how angry the emperor is and how he punishes him, as long as he insists, Mu Wenhan has already made plans, and his heart is calm.

"Princess Joan? Are you in love with Princess Joan? The emperor was angry and incoherent. grabbed a teacup in his hand, and threw it directly towards Mu Wenhan.

Mu Wenhan didn't dodge, the teacup hit his forehead, and his forehead was suddenly bloody, which looked quite scary.

However, Mu Wenhan still didn't move, but straightened his back a little. Originally, the emperor still regretted it a little, but seeing Mu Wenhan's reaction, he couldn't bear the anger in his heart anymore. But he couldn't bear to smash things at Mu Wenhan again, so he kept pacing in the room angrily.

After a long while, the emperor calmed down a little, and said to Mu Wenhan in a deep voice: "Since you dare to come here to say this, then I will also tell you the truth, I have decided to marry Princess Rou'an to Shijian to marry and marry Princess Rou'an?" Don't dream! ”

"Your Majesty, you can't marry the princess to Shijian." Mu Wenhan couldn't calm down anymore, so he hurriedly rushed over and hugged the emperor's leg, "Princess Rou'an is weak and has been sick. What kind of place is Shijian? In the land of barbarians, the princess is so weak, isn't it equivalent to death? Your Majesty, don't marry the princess to Shijian......"

"Nonsense!" The emperor kicked Mu Wenhan away, "The royal family of Shijian is not as good as our Dajin environment, this is true." However, Rou'an is married to the royal family, not to farm, how can she be so pitiful as you say? Where can the palace of Shijian and our palace be so bad? Isn't it the same that the sun can't be blown by the wind, the wind can't be blown by the rain, and there are hordes of slaves to call? Why can't you live? Look at the princess sent by Shijian, doesn't she also look good? There's no missing arm or leg, right? ”

I didn't expect the emperor to be so strong, Mu Wenhan really didn't know how to refute for a while, so he could only beg: "Your Majesty, Weichen begs you, Shijian is a barbarian, don't marry Princess Rou'an, Weichen really loves the princess......"

"Love?" The emperor angrily interrupted Mu Wenhan's words, "You and Rou'an haven't known each other for a day or two, you have already loved each other, why did you delay until today to ask for marriage?" Don't think I don't know what your idea is, first to make the princess sick, and then you came to ask for marriage, don't you just want to destroy the marriage between the two countries? One by one, your wings have grown stiff, and you dare to play with me...... Wen Han, I have always felt that you are the most sensible and calm child, why do you follow the nonsense? Haven't you thought about it? What would your grandfather think if you did that? Your grandfather pinned all the hopes of the Mu family on you, and he would be very sad if you did this...... I can understand that you feel sorry for Rou'an. Rouan is my daughter, how can I not feel sorry for her? But since she is a royal princess, she has to make sacrifices when necessary, and this is her life. Don't make a fuss, go back obediently......"

The emperor said that later, the love slowly calmed down, and he decided in his heart that Mu Wenhan was with Shang Qirui and wanted to save Rou'an, so he stood up and was willing to marry Rou'an, so she didn't marry Shijian in exchange. The emperor felt that Mu Wenhan was still a more obedient and sensible child, so he persuaded him seriously, and hoped that after persuading Mu Wenhan, he could let Mu Wenhan persuade Shang Qirui by the way.

Mu Wenhan was dumbfounded when he heard this, the amount of information in this passage was a bit large, and what Shang Qirui and Mu Qingge were doing, Mu Wenhan didn't know at all. When I saw Princess Joan, I thought she was really sick. However, listening to the emperor's meaning, it turned out to be pretending to be sick? Or is it deliberately sick and avoiding and kissing? Thinking about it like this, Mu Wenhan felt a lot happier in his heart, as long as Rou'an's body was fine.

However, when he heard others talking about Rou'an going to make peace with Princesse Rou'an just now in the main hall, the panic in his heart couldn't deceive him. Therefore, Mu Wenhan has really made up his mind now, no matter how difficult it is, he must marry Princess Rou'an.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty." Mu Wenhan kowtowed and said, "Weichen didn't join forces with anyone and wanted to destroy the marriage. Weichen was dull, and he just discovered his heart for the princess, so he came to ask for a kiss in a hurry. Wechen will not sacrifice his marriage in order to save people. Everything Weichen said was the truth, Weichen wanted to marry Princess Rou'an, just because Weichen loved the princess deeply, not to prevent the princess from kissing. Ask for the fulfillment of your majesty! ”

When the emperor heard Mu Wenhan say this, he was a little panicked, how could he listen to Mu Wenhan's tone and demeanor, he was really serious? Isn't it to sabotage and pro-come up with a procrastination idea? (To be continued......) I1292
