Mu Zhao was almost killed by the group of fools under his hands. Don't use your brain before doing things, even if there is grass growing in your head, you have to report it to him, the master, why don't you bypass yourself silently and harm yourself to death, Mu Zhao's lungs are a little angry.

The anger in his heart rushed upward, and the top of his head was so angry that he was smoking, Mu Zhao looked at him angrily and exhaled like a flood, and he was all over the study.

Mu Zhao never expected that his subordinates would carry their masters behind their backs and take concubines for the three princes. He has already discussed this matter with his staff, and it is a sure fact that this law is not feasible, once he does it, all the spearheads will be pointed at him, and he has suddenly become the target of public criticism, and his father has no way to explain it, even if he is innocent, he has not done anything, let alone instructed others to do it, and I am afraid that no one will believe it.

"Bastard thing!" Mu Zhao gritted his teeth with hatred, and hated to tear through those stupid pigs with fat brains.

If you want to greet yourself, you can't think of any other way, but you're not afraid of death to tease the dragon's whiskers, do you know how to write the word dead? Mu Zhao now wants to cry without tears, he was cheated by his subordinates, you said that he went to talk to someone, his heart was not ordinary tired, he was about to overwhelm him, a good life was just a blind toss, he didn't dare to think about how his father would react when he saw it.

Mu Zhao felt as if he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle, the taste was really uncomfortable, there was no way to fold it, and it was absolutely impossible to get it back. I am destined to carry this black cauldron on my back.

was so angry that he slammed his fist on the table, and he was not in the mood to call the staff to discuss the solution, so he leaned down on the chair alone, supported his forehead with his hand, closed his eyes and thought deeply, Mu Zhao even saved the strength to scold.

What will the father do with the matter on the fold, the possibility of rejection is greater, and the fool who is on the fold will either go to the prison of the criminal department or go home directly to eat himself, and his own fate. Most of the reprimands are inevitable, and they have no power in their hands and can't be reformed, and if they want to be punished, they will also use a knife against the forces behind them, where to start Mu Zhao doesn't want to think about it.

Mu Zhao was blinded until the second day. The time of the Upper Dynasty is approaching. He really didn't want to go to the court, and suddenly he had the idea of retreating, sitting on the chair and not moving for a while, he couldn't feel the sensation of his body, and he was never tired.

"Your Highness, it's time to go to court." The little guy outside knocked on the door and whispered softly.

"Your Highness." I didn't hear the people in the house answer, and the little girl knocked again, and the voice was slightly amplified, for fear that the people in the house would not be able to hear clearly.

"Prepare water." Mu Zhao knew in his heart that escaping was not a way. A hoarse voice.

The little maid entered the house and carefully served Mu Zhao to freshen up and change clothes, and sat in a sedan chair to go to court.

Mu Zhao didn't sleep all night, the blue and black under his eyes were particularly heavy, his face was pale, his eyes were blank, and his brain couldn't move. I don't have the mood to figure it out, and I look like a broken jar.

As soon as Mu Zhao arrived, he frightened a bunch of courtiers, what's wrong, why does the eldest prince look like this, the ministers are full of suspicions, and no one can guess the reason when they look at each other.

The people who presented the folds just wanted to salivate and show off their faces, and they worked day and night before and after the saddle for the master. Seeing the gloomy face of the eldest prince, he was so frightened that his legs trembled and he didn't dare to take half a step forward.

They don't know where the reason for the eldest prince's displeasure comes from, in case it is bad because they are carrying the master behind their backs, and their hearts tremble when they look at the face of the eldest prince, and their hearts are weak, but there is something wrong with the fact that they are doing it. For the first time, I plotted behind my master's back, if it was successful, it would be easy to say, but if it didn't work, if it didn't work......

"The emperor has arrived!" A sharp announcement sounded and pulled back the minds of the ministers who had their own thoughts.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live." All the families knelt down and bowed down to make a big bow.

"Flat." Li Desheng shouted loudly.

The ministers got up and tidied up their robes and clothes slightly, and stood to listen to the announcement.

Mu Haoyu sat in a high position. Seeing Mu Zhao's rich and condensed complexion at a glance, his heart is far from this amount of energy, and a little thing can be scared of his soul, and he is getting older and more forward-looking, and it is difficult to get into the hall of elegance.

After the political affairs were over, Mu Haoyu went straight to the point and picked out the excerpts for the ministers to read, "Take a look, and tell your thoughts after reading it." ”

The ministers didn't think about the three princes, and secretly guessed what was going on, so that the ministers should look at the excerpts first instead of explaining them directly.

Mu Zhao was the first to get the fold, and after opening it, he glanced at it roughly, and his hands trembled unconsciously with anger, showing some anger and tearing the fold in his hand.

The courtiers are all human spirits, looking at the expression of the eldest prince, is it a big deal in his heart, the expression of the eldest prince is particularly worrying, and when he folded it into his hand, he opened it and looked at it, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, isn't it the matter of the third prince taking a concubine, and the eldest prince is so abnormal.

"What do you think?" Mu Haoyu spoke, and the ministers below were silent.

"The minister thought that the third prince was still young, and the matter of accepting concubines was too hasty." Some ministers immediately stood up and showed that they had seen it.

"According to the minister's opinion, it is a little early to accept the side concubines, so you can choose two concubines to serve the third prince first." Some officials came out to agree with the third prince's concubine.

"The minister seconded the proposal." Some officials came forward to echo it.

The officials present were clear in their hearts, the real intention of this matter was the emperor's attitude, the third prince was not a concubine, and the emperor favored which prince he liked, so that they could plan their future in a timely manner in accordance with the wishes of the emperor.

"What about the others, they all agree with the third prince to take a concubine?" Mu Haoyu looked around, and his faint voice couldn't hear joy or anger.

After waiting for a while and no one returned, Mu Haoyu turned his eyes to look at Mu Zhao, and said meaningfully: "Mu Zhao, what about you, what do you think of this matter?" ”

Mu Zhao was stunned when asked, his squirming lips couldn't say half a word, what did he say, whether he agreed or opposed, the consequences of agreeing were imminent, his father was the first to spare him, he didn't agree, heh, he didn't agree to anything, this is not a self-slapping mouth, making people laugh.

"Why, there's nothing to say." Mu Haoyu is interested in hearing how Mu Zhao can defend himself in order to get himself out.

Mu Zhao had no way to remain silent, it was not a way to be so deadlocked, so he said, "I should have asked the third prince for his own opinion." "It's too wrong to say more, it's better not to say it, and the problem is directly thrown to Mu Jinming.

"Oh, what do the three princes think?" Mu Haoyu glanced at Mu Zhao and turned to ask Mu Jinming.

"The sons and daughters are up to their father." Mu Jinming stepped forward to make his attitude clear.

"Whose daughter do you think is the most suitable?" Mu Haoyu is waiting to see which officials want to climb up.

This, ministers, you look at me, I look at you, the emperor has agreed to the third prince to take a concubine? Seeing that the veil is about to be lifted, now it is getting farther and farther away, and it is back to square one.

To be able to climb to the prince must be a blessing for several lifetimes. Even if the third prince is not as good as the eldest prince, he is also a prince, and it will be much more convenient to do things outside with this level of identity, and many officials will jump down regardless of the problem even if they know that there is a problem. The fat in front of me is so tempting, I'm sorry for myself if I don't take a bite.

"The emperor can order the draft." There are ministers who play Xiao Jiujiu, "The number of people can be controlled to a certain range." ”

"Labor and money." Mu Haoyu dismissed the mention of yì in four words.

The ministers were speechless for a while, and they wanted to choose a concubine and were afraid of labor, how to conform to the holy will, the officials were completely blinded, and they couldn't recommend themselves, how to open this mouth.

"The emperor can issue an order for women of appropriate age to submit portraits first for the three princes to choose." A minister said, "The third prince can be accepted as a concubine if he likes it." ”

"The minister seconded the proposal." There are not a few officials who have ideas. It is human nature to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix.

"The minister thinks this method is feasible." In the end, the three princes want to choose a concubine, and the early election and late election are the same choices, and the ministers have their own thoughts in their hearts.

The position of crown prince is undecided, and there are slightly more officials supporting the eldest prince, as for the third prince who is not favored. There are many people who are wandering and watching, according to the calculations of the courtiers, the probability of choosing one of the two, now is not the time to stand in line as soon as possible, it is the right thing to wait patiently, it is a big deal to follow the dragon's work, and nothing else will be lost. Why take the risk, haven't you seen that the officials of the Great Prince's faction have been suppressed less.

"Mu Zhao, do you think it's feasible?" Mu Haoyu once again opened his mouth to name the eldest prince, and the other ministers couldn't help frowning.

Suddenly, I was shocked, and I was in a cold sweat, how could I forget the subtleties and see the truth. I think back to the emperor from beginning to end that he never agreed to the third prince's concubine, let alone say the word permission in person, from beginning to end, the emperor was asking the minister's opinion, and the eldest prince was asked twice for the first time.

What does this mean, the truth is obvious. What the emperor wants to see has been seen, and the rest is the question of how to deal with it. The eldest prince must be planted this time, and these officials who echo it don't know what will happen.

If you are negligent, why don't you have a long memory, and some officials began to regret it, what kind of fun they were making, and they filled in it plainly.

Mu Zhao stubbornly glanced at the man on the throne, his father, "The sons have no right to interfere with the wishes of the three princes, and the three princes should express their opinions directly on this matter." "If you go out, stretching out your head and stabbing it is dead, and shrinking your head with a knife is even more useless, and the father will inevitably punish the presenter, and he can't escape the dilemma of being held accountable.

Blame who, blame him for having eyes and no pearls, no, no, no, those are all treacherous villains who want to cling to themselves, and they are used to stammering and seeking glory, and it is none of their business that they put on themselves, Mu Zhao comforted himself like this, so as to alleviate some of the indignation that flocked to his heart.

It is good to dispose of these people, what is the use of seeing the villain who has nothing to do to see the wind and rudder, and is there less trouble for himself, Mu Zhao decided that the tail was not a trouble, and he did not need these people to block his heart.

Mu Zhao was in a good mood when he thought about it like this, and his face, which had not slept all night, was full of light, he was not afraid of his father's guilt, he could bear it, and the depression in his eyes gradually disappeared.

Mu Haoyu took Mu Zhao's series of slightly changing expressions into his eyes, and secretly thought that Mu Zhao's patience was growing, and it seemed that adversity could sharpen people's hearts the most.

"The matter of the third prince taking a concubine." Mu Haoyu paused slightly, and his eyes turned around the faces of the ministers before saying, "I don't allow it." ”

When the three words fell, the hearts of the ministers sank, and the hearts of the ministers who were expecting the result fell to the bottom all of a sudden, and the palms of their clenched hands were full of cold sweat.

"The third prince has been weak since he was a child, and the head of the Tai Hospital once said that he needs to recuperate for a long time, and he needs to be an adult in the matter of women." Mu Haoyu didn't look at the courtier's expression, he already had a pre-idea in his mind, so it was okay not to look at it.

"I don't want to hear the words of defense from the officials who presented the folds." Mu Haoyu's faint voice sounded, slamming heavily on the courtier's heart, "I don't want to investigate who instructed it." ”

Who the last sentence means, the ministers can figure it out with their toes, the emperor is saving face for the eldest prince, and he did not scold him in public. The rest of the people didn't have such a good fate.

"The Punishment Department is a good place to go." The corners of Mu Haoyu's lips raised slightly, and his mood was extremely comfortable, "The official Shangjuan is going to the Criminal Department to take a look, if there is anything to say, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department will solve it for you." ”

The official who played the performance fell to his knees in fright, kowtowed again and again to beg the emperor for mercy, and looked at the eldest prince with clear eyes, and almost shouted directly to the eldest prince for help.

Mu Zhao is not afraid of anyone's sight, even if it is shouting, it is completely okay to point directly at himself, he has already left a stain in his father's heart, whether it is a foregone conclusion whether he did it or not, and he doesn't care about one more notoriety, probably like the saying circulating among the people, the mentality of not biting debts if there are more lice.

The matter came to an end, and the courtier's ups and downs finally settled, and he secretly touched a sweat, isn't the emperor playing with people?

Step by step, guide everyone's thoughts to the other end, admit the death of the emperor and ask the ministers for their opinions is to agree to the matter of the third prince taking a concubine, who ever wanted to turn it over in the blink of an eye, the ministers' admonitions became a joke, the ministers did not dare to laugh, and they couldn't laugh.

"I've heard rumors outside the palace." Mu Haoyu resumed his conversation, and it was necessary to dispel some bad thoughts.

The ministers' hearts sank, and they involuntarily turned their eyes to look at the Winged King who was sitting on the chair with a calm expression. This is the right man.

I can't help but think about it, the emperor is trying to solve the mystery, so many days of waiting have hope, and the ministers have come to the spirit one by one.

"What is spread outside the palace, everyone Aiqing must know better than me." Mu Haoyu noticed the minister's expression, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

"Imagination is abundant." Mu Haoyu smiled: "It's funny to listen to like a storyteller." ”

The minister's heart was once mentioned, and he wanted to know what kind of thoughts the emperor had for the Wing King, and he had to give a happy word, and it was really uncomfortable to hang in the air like this.

"Rumors stop at the wise." Mu Haoyu dropped such a sentence and raised his hand to signal his retreat.

The ministers immediately turned on the lights, what did the emperor's words mean? Is it to say that the rumors are not true, or are they expressing the rumors of the three princes and the winged king, phew, what is with what, it has come back again.

The ministers walked out of the palace gate lightly with a head of paste, and until they got on the sedan chair and returned home, their minds were still a mess, and the threads were not pounded out.

What the emperor said was equivalent to not saying it, which whetted the appetite of the courtiers and made the courtiers smile bitterly, it seems that the matter related to the three princes and the winged king can no longer be mentioned in the future.

If you want to be a wise man or a fool, it all depends on your own thoughts, and those who don't believe in rumors are wise people who can live longer.

"Oh, what a frail!" Mu Zhao returned to the house and locked himself in the study, called for wine and food, and drank it with a cup of wine and food, with a very sarcastic look on his face.

"Don't be a woman, hehe." Mu Zhao lowered his eyes, his eyes were focused on the wine cup full of wine, and sneered: "What is that Wing King, isn't she just a woman, like a fake." ”

Mu Zhao drank several glasses in a row, suddenly got up and picked up the wine jug on the table, drank it to his mouth, the bottom of his heart was filled with a sour and bitter taste, the wine was sad and difficult to dissipate, the spicy and burning heat was left in the chest and abdomen, and he could no longer taste the mellow aroma of wine.

Today's events are in Mu Zhao's surprise, and there are some accidents left, the people who dug the pit and buried themselves were disposed of, needless to say, the mood is very good, unexpectedly he only received a hidden warning, how rare, the first time his father was not in charge, he couldn't tell what it was like, and he understood that he and the third child were like chess pieces in the hands of his father, where he wanted to swing, and the taste of being controlled was uncomfortable, Mu Zhao didn't feel how it was before, but now he feels very ridiculous, no wonder so many people want to compete for power, How fascinating it is to hold the power of life and death.
