Chapter 430: Battle of wits and courage

Du Shangshu looked left and right, motioned to Xin Muyuan to the side a little, lowered his voice and said: "This is also the official's guess: Your Majesty, I have long guessed that Xie Xiaozi will resist the decree, and he will fight with death!" ”

It seemed that a clear spring crashed into Xin Muyuan's brain, and all the chaos began to open, forming clear clues.

"Why didn't I think of that!" Xin Muyuan blinked, "Then I'm going to enter the palace even more!" ”

Xin Muyuan got up and was about to leave.

"What are you doing in the palace!" Du Shangshu said impatiently. Just in order to keep Xin Muyuan, he has never liked nonsense, he said what he could think of over and over again, and kept looking for the fault of Liying, even if it was a bone in the egg, he had to find out her problem.

Not only that, because he talked too much, so he had a dry mouth and kept drinking water. But he was worried that Xin Muyuan would sneak away while he was going to the toilet, and he didn't even dare to go to the toilet.

"It's a matter between their royal family, what are you involved in this? Oh, shouldn't it be Your Majesty who spoils you a little, and you really think of yourself as a harem concubine! ”

Xin Muyuan glared at him coldly, and Du Shangshu immediately closed his mouth.

Holding her head, she thought about the relationship between Xie Zhan and Xiao Changting.

"It's been so long since I entered the palace, why hasn't there been any movement in the palace?" Xin Muyuan guessed that Xie Zhan did not have a high merit, and he did not obey orders in addition.

Since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has been honest and dutiful, doing his own work in the court, and he will soak in Qinxin Garden in the next court, ignoring foreign affairs, and there is really no threat to the emperor, and there is no need to eradicate him by force.

That's ......

He really wanted to marry Xiao Changyu to Xie Zhan, but he didn't expect Xie Zhan to be so stubborn, and it was really inappropriate to sacrifice a general for this, so he persuaded Xie Zhan to take the order.

But this seems to contradict what he did.

Du Shangshu saw her sipping tea in a daze, and guessed what was going on in her heart, and a trace of displeasure and impatience flashed in her eyes.

He didn't like this kind of woman who was smart and put her place above the officials.

"Boss Xin, you are a very smart person, but this is a royal matter, and it has nothing to do with you in the final analysis, so why worry about it so much?"

He poured the tea in the quilt in front of Xin Muyuan and smiled shallowly.

Xin Muyuan also showed a faint smile, staring at the filled teacup in front of him, and after a while, he lowered his head to hold the rim of the cup, drank most of the tea, and returned to his previous half-full state, looking up at Shang Shu and smiling sweetly.

"Click"

The teacup in Du Shangshu's hand was crumpled into pieces, stabbed into his palm, and glared at Xin Muyuan.

He has lived most of his life, and he has never seen such a brazen person!

Xin Muyuan got up, stared at him with cold eyes, and said, "Even if they have a thousand words to say, most of the night will be over." ”

Without waiting for Du Shangshu to come back to her senses, she suddenly raised her sleeves, white powder spilled out, and a good person suddenly fell.

At the same time, Mu Yi, who went around to the rear of the soldiers, took advantage of their defenselessness to knock them unconscious.

"Let's go." Xin Muyuan clapped his hands and was about to leave, when he suddenly saw another group of people rushing into the alley, drawing their swords against their necks.

Du Shangshu had already guessed that Xin Muyuan's kung fu was strong, and he would definitely find a way to escape. Don't say ten people, even twenty people, and they can't stop Xin Mu Yuan, which can cross seven hundred steps in the blink of an eye.

Therefore, Du Shangshu had an explanation before coming, if he didn't stop Xin Muyuan, he would let them force each other to death.

Everyone looked indifferent, and one of them said: "Boss Xin, don't waste your efforts in vain." Master Shangshu explained that Qinxin Garden is so big, if you can't find anyone in Qinxin Garden, you will have fled, which is our negligence, and we should apologize for our death. ”

"Hehe, hehehe......" Xin Muyuan applauded, his anger stuffed in his throat, and he turned back to his room in annoyance.

These people had no intention of leaving, Xin Muyuan rested, and they just found a corner outside to lie down.

In the room, Xin Muyuan sighed to himself, rubbed his sore temples, and called Pearl Mingzhu: "How are those people outside?" ”

Pearl Mingzhu glanced at each other and shook her head helplessly: "Still guarding outside." The emperor has made up his mind that you will not harm ordinary soldiers, and will continue with you to the end. ”

"Damn." Xin Muyuan clenched his fists angrily, gritted his teeth and said, "Go get them blankets, and the people on shift will go to the backyard to rest." ”

Today is April 16th, and it has been a small month since March 25th. It's bright, but at night, it's still a little cold. If they are allowed to sleep outside like this, they will catch a cold.

Mingzhu and Pearl went to buy a bed and a blanket respectively, Xin Muyuan tiptoed out of the house, and saw Shangshu sitting at the stone table in the courtyard.

Xin Muyuan covered his headache, went to sit opposite him, and said, "Shangshu, are you staring at me again?" "The medicine had to work for two hours, and it was less than an hour, so how could he wake up?

Looking at his appearance, his expression was still a little unclear. He didn't stay in the house properly, and ran over to squat at him.

Shang Shu shook his head, looked at the stars in the sky, and said, "I'm just thinking about things." ”

This answer surprised Xin Muyuan, and he couldn't help but be a melon-eating crowd: "Ho, it's rare." Why do you suddenly get up in the middle of the night and think about things? ”

Shang Shu didn't look at her, still looking at the stars in the sky, and said, "Since I became an official, I rarely look at this star." When I was a child, I was always curious, how these little things hung on them and didn't fall off, could it be that the sky was a curtain, and the stars were glued to it with batter? ”

Speaking of the previous incident, Shang Shu's cold and serious face revealed a trace of warmth, the corners of his mouth were upturned, and his face was full of wrinkles.

"Later, when I grew up, I passed the martial arts examination and became an official. Later, as the emperor's subordinates went into battle to kill the enemy, they exchanged their sonorous blood for promotion and knighthood. ”

"It's too busy, it's too busy every day. I always worry about this in my heart, I want to think about it, where will I get the time to see the stars? Occasionally, when I hear literati mention it, I will scoff at it and disdain these useless things. Today, when I calmed down and looked, I suddenly realized that I was also the one who watched the stars on that moonlit night. ”

Xin Muyuan propped his head, thinking back to what he had just said and what he kept repeating about his own childhood, and sighed secretly.

She vaguely felt that Du Shangshu was thinking of retreating.

Also, he has been in this position for too long, and now the situation is unstable, and his daughter is the most beloved concubine of His Majesty today, but if something happens, he must be involved as a father.

He's old, he can't move anymore, and he doesn't want to toss anymore.
