287. Chapter 286
By the time the words fell, the smile on his face had disappeared, leaving only a trembling seriousness and openness.
Huo Zhentian was completely stunned, looking at him standing in the sun, like the Nine Heavens God Monarch, he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
If you ask who is the most open in this world, Huo Zhentian's answer at this moment is definitely him.
Who would tell a secret that is enough to stir up turbulent waves when others doubt their motives?
Although Huo Zhentian is in the rivers and lakes and rarely gets involved in the treacherous court and court battles, he knows very well that people in this world are sinister, and not all secrets can be told to people, especially the secrets of the royal family.
Zhuge Wuwei knew that he had scruples about him, and his words were tentative, but he chose to tell him directly and clearly that he wanted to know what he wanted to know, which can only show that the person in front of him is either too conceited and believes that no matter who or anything in this world, it is all under his control, or he is really open in his heart, and he really never thought of using the power of martial arts to fulfill his selfish desires, he has every certainty to overthrow the Gong dynasty with his own ability, and at the same time ensure that the surface looks strong, In fact, the fragile martial arts inside are not affected.
There is no doubt that without any hesitation, Huo Zhentian chose the latter and chose to believe in Zhuge Wuwei. He had no doubt that with Zhuge Wuwei's openness and courage, he would definitely be able to become the monarch of the Shengming of the Bigong family.
And the people of the world, and even the rivers and lakes today, need such a wise monarch, not a bloodthirsty tyrant who is carried away by the lack of hope in the valley of power, cannot tolerate any opposition, and wants to achieve the grand hegemony at the cost of his life......

In the evening, the light and shadow are dim, after a day of daylight baptism, Yecheng even the air is hot, and at this time in the Shangshu Mansion, a figure wanders back and forth at the gate, his steps are disordered, his face is anxious, and from time to time he looks in the direction of the alley, and he only feels more and more bored and hot from a distance.
Drivingββ
Suddenly, the sound of a horse was heard, and the man paused eagerly, turned to look at the alley, and jumped into his brow with a little joy when he saw the driver of the car.
Sigh......
When the carriage came to a stop and the people in the carriage came down, she hurried to meet it.
"Yan Zhi, you're finally back."
"Why are you here?" Mu Yanzhi's brows furrowed slightly, staring at her with a hint of reproach, "It's hot outside, you should wait for me in the house." β
"Yan Zhi, go and see Jinxiu, she has been crying all afternoon since she came back, no matter how I persuade her, it is useless, and she has not even drunk a sip of water until now."
"She's back?" After asking, Mu Yanzhi remembered that Gong Ying Ye had come back at noon today, and since Mu Jinxiu was Wuyi who went with him, he should naturally come back, so he immediately changed his words: "What happened?" Where is she now? β
"I don't know what's going on, no matter what I ask her, she won't say, she's in her boudoir now, you can come with me to see it."
"Let's go!" Saying that he had already taken steps under his feet, Mu Yanzhi and Xiao Shuyi came to the Splendid Pavilion in Mu Jinxiu's small courtyard together.
As soon as they stepped into the gate of the small courtyard, the two of them heard Mu Jinxiu's sobbing voice, which was soft and mournful, as if they had been greatly wronged.
Mu Yanzhi's eyebrows twisted, the steps under his feet quickened, and he walked quickly to Mu Jinxiu's bedroom.
When I came to the bed, I saw Mu Jinxiu lying on the bed, her little shoulders were crying and twitching, the soft pillow with her chin was already wet, and her eyes immediately flashed the anger of her baby daughter being bullied.
But then Mu Yanzhi softened his expression, sat down on the edge of the bed, put his hands on Mu Jinxiu's shoulders and back, and persuaded softly: "What's wrong with my son?" Why did you cry so sadly? Hurry up and tell Daddy who bullied Daddy's baby daughter, and Dad will teach the bastard who dared to bully my baby daughter a lesson. β
Mu Jinxiu raised her head from the wet soft pillow, looked at him with teary eyes, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Dad?" You're back? When did you come back? β
"Dad just came back, and he didn't even have time to change his official uniform, so he hurried to see you." Mu Yanzhi smiled and said gently, "Come, tell your father, who has bullied you all the way?" Daddy is going to settle accounts with them! β
Mu Jinxiu blinked, and asked innocently: "No matter who bullies his daughter, will his father stand up for his daughter?" β
"That's natural, if anyone dares to bully my Mu Yanzhi's daughter, I Mu Yanzhi will not dismantle her into eight pieces, and she will definitely suffer from whipping!"
"And what if your other daughter bullied me? What will you do? Will you also dismantle her? β
"......" Mu Yanzhi was slightly stunned, unable to answer for the time being, Mu Jinxiu looked at his reaction, his mouth was deflated, and he threw himself back into the soft pillow and cried.
"Dad, you lie, you won't be angry for me at all. Now that woman lives in the prince's mansion and rides on my head, you will only be able to say that you will be angry for me, but you won't do anything to her at all, you don't hurt me at all, you hurt her in your heart. β
"!" Mu Yan scolded and straightened his face. "How can it be her who hurts daddy? Dad didn't admit that she was Daddy's daughter at all! β
"And how are you going to clean her up?" Mu Jinxiu does not give up. "She now lives in the prince's brother's mansion, if you don't ask, she will really become the prince's brother's princess. Don't forget what you promised me that you would make me the crown princess. β
"Okay, don't cry, you should trust your father." Xiao Shuyi said in a timely manner, "He will fulfill you no matter what." β
Xiao Shuyi immediately looked at Mu Yanzhi, whose face was not relaxed, frowned and asked, "What are you going to do?" That Mu Bangqing seems to have changed her temperament greatly since she hit the pillar in the Jinluan Palace, and with her current temperament, she may not recognize you as a father and seek revenge on you. β
Mu Jinxiu really didn't cry anymore, and her shoulders, which were shaking just now, stopped there quietly, listening to the conversation between the two with her ears pricked up.
Mu Yanzhi's face sank, and his eyes crossed the coldness that was completely opposite to when he persuaded Mu Jinxiu just now. "Tomorrow I will personally go to the prince's mansion and let her live in the mansion, if she still recognizes me as a father, she will naturally come back with me obediently, and when I come back, I will find a way to let her dispel the idea of marrying His Royal Highness the prince."
"Whew!" Mu Jinxiu sniffed at the right time and interjected: "Then what if she refuses to listen to you and come back with you?" What are you going to do? You don't know what to do, but on the way back this time, she told me in person that I should tell you that from now on when you see her, you'd better take a detour and don't upset her. β
Mu Yanzhi Huo Ran turned around, "Did she really say that?" β
"If she really said that, you don't know what to say, and now she can be described as ruthless. When she came back this time, she actually took me to blackmail the prince's brother, hurt me with a dagger, and forced the prince's brother to let Prime Minister Zhuge go. In her eyes, I was not her sister at all, but a stranger who had nothing to do with her, and she could take my life at any time as long as she was happy. β
"What did you say?" Xiao Shuyi and Mu Yanzhi were startled at the same time, and their faces changed greatly.
The two glanced at each other, and Mu Yanzhi continued to ask, "Did she really hurt you with a dagger?" Where are you hurt? Does it matter? Hurry up and let your mother take a look. β
Xiao Shuyi looked at her worriedly, and said distressedly: "You are really a child, why didn't you tell your mother just now?" As soon as I came back, I cried here, I don't know if I cried too much and hurt my body? β
"The injuries on my body are not tight, do you know what makes me angry the most?" Mu Jinxiu got up again, her eyes were red and she said: "What I am most angry about is that the prince's brother is like a different person now, he almost obeys her, and he turns a blind eye to what she hurts me, and he doesn't see it at all." If it goes on like this, I'm really afraid that the prince's brother will forget about me completely before long. β
Mu Yanzhi tightened his eyebrows, and after thinking for a while, he took Mu Jinxiu's hand and patted it, solemnly assuring: "Don't worry about my son, Dad will definitely let you sit on the throne of the crown princess, Dad promises you." β
After speaking, he stood up and said to Xiao Shuyi on the side: "You are here with Jinxiu, I will go to the study first, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will return to Beijing today, and the emperor will convene all the ministers to discuss the countermeasures to punish Xiyue. β
"Punish the Western Vietnamese?" Xiao Shuyi was slightly surprised, "This matter is very important, then you go quickly, I will take care of Jinxiu here." β
"Well, then I'll go first, and you mother and daughter will have a good talk."
"Okay."
When Mu Yanzhi walked away, Xiao immediately summoned the maid Ping'er and asked her to call someone to invite a doctor, and then sat on the edge of the bed, and said with a serious expression: "Come, tell me what is going on with Weiniang, how did that slut hurt you?" β
"Okay." Mu Jinxiu nodded, changed the grudge just now, and said with an angry face: "Mother, I'll tell you......"
Just as Mu Jinxiu was facing the evil deeds of the Xiao family, the prince's mansion at this time was brightly lit and quiet.
After dinner, Gong Ming took a walk in the mansion at night, and when he arrived at Yun Jinghua's residence, he saw that the lights inside were faint, the wind was gusting, and there was an atmosphere that made him feel calm that was not found elsewhere, he couldn't help but stop and took a few deep breaths.
At this time, Yun Jinghua had just finished dinner, and the subordinate who was ordered to serve here was packing up the dishes and bringing them out, and he frowned when he saw that many of the food in the tray had not been moved.
"Your Highness." When the servants found him, they immediately saluted.
"Aren't these dishes to her liking? Why didn't you move? β
The servant swept the tray and replied respectfully: "Back to His Highness, Miss Mu said that she was tired and had no appetite. β
"No appetite? Did you tell her that she didn't have an appetite and could let the kitchen cook the dishes she wanted? β
"I have already said it, but Miss Mu said no, she drank some soup, ate another bowl of rice and let it go."
