Chapter 285: A King's Heart Is Like Water

Yang Muyun smiled dumbly, and secretly said in his heart, Are you and I a stake, standing there motionless and letting you chop? This little grandfather is really naΓ―ve, Chen Siyu is such a gentle and lovely girl, how would she marry such a person...... Thinking of this, he sighed and shook his head helplessly.

Zhu Yi saw him shake his head, his face was even more angry, and he slashed in the air, "What do you mean, when I really can't help you?" ”

"Where, where," Yang Muyun said with a smile on his face: "The little grandfather is extraordinary, and he is willing to bow down." ”

Seeing his cynical appearance, Zhu Yi's face sank, he took a step forward, pointed at the long knife obliquely, took a deep breath, and was about to jump up, when he suddenly heard a sharp shout: "Stop!" ”

Yang Muyun turned to look at where the voice came from, and saw Wang Zhen accompanying Zhu Qizhen and a group of guards and eunuchs behind him to walk this way.

Zhu Qizhen stopped with a calm face, and a burly lieutenant Lux held a Huangluo umbrella cover on top of him.

Without waiting for Zhu Qizhen to speak, Wang Zhen stepped forward and reprimanded: "What are you doing, do you want to rebel with knives and guns in the palace ban?" ”

Zhu Yi panicked, hurriedly put the knife back into its sheath, stepped forward and walked a few steps towards Zhu Qizhen and knelt on the ground, "Ministers meet the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live!" ”

Yang Muyun also walked over and bowed to Zhu Qizhen: "Weichen see the emperor!" ”

Zhu Qizhen didn't speak with a gloomy face, and walked towards the hall, without looking at the two of them, and hung them here.

"You ......" Wang Zhen wanted to say a few more words, but when he saw Zhu Qizhen leaving, he stomped his feet and hurriedly followed.

For a moment, the two of them were left kneeling outside the main hall.

The hours passed bit by bit, and Zhu Qizhen neither summoned the two nor asked them to retreat, as if he had forgotten them.

Zhu Yi knelt with sore knees, looked up at the sun, only to feel that today's sun was particularly dazzling, and his eyes were black for a while, he raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and glanced at Yang Muyun, only to see him kneeling there straight like a wangfu stone, his eyes slightly closed, and he looked calm and relaxed.

"It's unlucky!" Zhu Yi scolded secretly in her heart, "This emperor doesn't come early or late, but he appeared just when I was about to hit him, causing me to kneel here with him......" Looking towards the door of the hall, I saw Xu Yongning standing upright at the door of the hall, not squinting.

Zhu Yi glanced at him frequently, meaning that he wanted him to find a way to enter the palace to go to the emperor to ask for a favor for himself, but who knew that Xu Yongning didn't know whether he didn't see it or deliberately avoided his gaze, so he slowly closed his eyes.

"Xu Mazi on dog days (because Xu Yongning has some freckles on his face, Zhu Yi often calls him Xu Mazi in private), it's really fucking unrighteous!" Zhu Yi was so angry that he scolded in his heart, but the emperor didn't speak, and he didn't dare to get up, so he had to hang his head and sulk there.

Just when Zhu Yi was restless, he heard a sound of footsteps coming from the hall, he couldn't help but feel for a while, raised his eyes, and saw the red robe in front of him flickering, and Wang Zhen walked out of the hall with eight steps.

"Princess...... princess" Zhu Yi opened his mouth to call, but he didn't dare to say too much.

Fortunately, Wang Zhen heard it, shrugged his two white eyebrows, glanced at him, smiled, and walked towards him.

"Xiao Yizi, what do you want me to do?" Wang Zhen squeezed his eyes at him and smiled.

"Princess," Zhu Yi wanted to smile at him, but found that the muscles on his face were a little stiff, and his lips moved, "Your Majesty...... Did the emperor mention me? ”

"What do you want to do?" Wang Zhen glanced at Yang Muyun as he spoke, Yang Muyun's expression was calm, and there was no trace of embarrassment.

Zhu Yi

His heart tightened, and his cheeks trembled, "Princess, you see that I have been kneeling for a long time, and I can't ...... You can't just get down on your knees all the time, you see...... Can you please ask the emperor for a favor and let me get up! ”

"It's not promising!" Wang Zhen scolded with a smile and pointed to Yang Muyun on the side, "People haven't opened their mouths yet!" You can't stand it first, you knew what kind of ruthlessness you would fight with him like this! ”

"Yes, yes, what the prince taught me a lesson," Zhu Yi barely squeezed out a smile on his face, but shouted in his mouth: "It was he who beat me first, and I had to ...... it."

"Our family is not interested in hearing these bad things between you, and we are not interested in judging who is right and wrong," Wang Zhen interrupted him, "The knife in your hand has just danced in a hurry, and the emperor can see it in his eyes......" The corner of his eye swept Yang Muyun not far away, and continued: "He just came, it doesn't matter if he doesn't understand the rules of the palace, are you on the first day of errand?" Playing with a big blade in front of the emperor, I don't know how to write dead words. It's also thanks to the emperor's generosity that he didn't say anything, otherwise, he would drag both of you down and beat you with fifty sticks, so that you can't climb up...... Now it's just a matter of getting you on your knees for an hour, which is cheaper for you. ”

"Princess, what you said is right," Zhu Yi pleaded with a bitter face: "Now the emperor's anger should be gone, right?" Lao Lao drove to the emperor to help me intercede, and said that I knew the crime, please ask the emperor to punish me as much as you want, just don't let me kneel like this all the time. ”

Wang Zhen shook his head, raised his eyelids slightly and said: "It's not convenient for me to help you ask for this situation, the emperor is handling political affairs!" A large number of recitals made the emperor's head bigger, "Facing the palace, "Oh, the emperor is losing his temper inside!" No one dares to touch this moldy head...... I said little grandfather, don't worry, when Chengguo Gong knows about Xin'er, he will definitely enter the palace to protect you from the palace, you can stay a little longer, ah? Saying that, he smiled leisurely and staggered away.

"This castration ......" Zhu Yi looked at his back and took a sip, so he had to lower his head helplessly.

I don't know how many hours have passed, the sun has set in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the two of them, pulling out two long oblique shadows on the ground.

Just when Zhu Yi was drowsy, he felt that someone slapped him behind him, and he couldn't help but feel excited, and hurriedly looked back, facing him was Xu Yongning's smiling face.

"You...... You're trying to scare me to death! Zhu Yi opened his mouth and said.

"Brother Zhu," Xu Yongning smiled and said, "I see that you are also tired from kneeling, so it is better to get up and move your hands and feet." ”

"No, no......" Zhu Yi shook his head and glanced at the hall with a fearful face, "The emperor punished me to kneel here, how could I disobey the emperor's orders." ”

Xu Yongning smiled on his face, and said solemnly: "Pass on the emperor's message, it's getting late, and you're tired of kneeling, so let's go down!" ”

"The emperor has sent an edict?" Zhu Yi was in good spirits, and with his hands on the ground in excitement, he was about to stand up, but he lost consciousness in his legs, and he stumbled as soon as he got up, and he almost fell down before he stood firmly, Xu Yongning hurriedly stepped forward to help him.

"Didn't the emperor let him get up too?" Zhu Yi glanced at Yang Muyun.

"No," Xu Yongning shook his head slowly: "The emperor sent an edict to only let me take you down, and did not mention him." ”

"It seems that the emperor is still facing me," Zhu Yi glanced at Yang Muyun proudly, "The emperor had better send down another edict and punish him to kneel here for three days and three nights, and kneel to death here." ”

Night finally fell on the earth, and the moon rose, and the moonlight like water fell on the open space in front of the temple, as if a thin layer of frost had fallen.

Yang Muyun opened his slightly closed eyes and looked at all this in front of him very indifferently.

Suddenly felt a burst of refreshment, in the half day of kneeling, he entered a meditative state, guiding his whole body's power to wander in the veins of the limbs and bones, and I don't know how many weeks he ran, he only felt that the breath of his body became hotter and hotter, more and more thick, until he was all sucked into the dantian.

After he exhaled the last breath of turbidity, the bones of his whole body made a soft sound, and before he knew it, his skill had deepened again.

Zhu Yi had already left with Xu Yongning, and Yang Muyun looked at the place where he was kneeling in a daze, "The knife technique he made is a little familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere." He stretched out his knuckles and tapped his forehead gently, but he couldn't remember who had used this knife before.

There was a sound of small footsteps, and he turned his head to look, only to see Xiao Lingzi walking towards him with a food box.

"Lord Yang is hungry, right?" Xiao Lingzi came to him and put down the food box, opened the lid of the box, and brought out two plates of delicate snacks from inside. "This is rose almond cake, as well as Poria osmanthus cake, all of which were given to you by the emperor."

"The emperor's reward?" Yang Muyun was stunned, "Doesn't the emperor blame me?" ”

"The emperor doesn't blame our family for not knowing," Xiao Lingzi smiled, revealing the upper and lower rows of snow-white teeth, "But these two plates of dim sum were carefully made by Zhou Guifei for the emperor, and the emperor asked the slave maid to send them to Lord Yang before he moved." ”

"This ...... How does this work? Yang Muyun was taken aback and said: "The concubine Niangniang made a snack for the emperor, how dare I, as a courtier, enjoy it first?" ”

"Lord Yang, you can eat with confidence," Xiao Lingzi said with a smile: "The emperor personally confessed, after you have eaten, hurry up and enter the palace to see the driver." ”

"The emperor wants to see me?" Yang Muyun stood up excitedly, and was about to move, but was stopped by Xiao Lingzi, "Lord Yang, what are you going to do?" ”

"Go see the emperor." Yang Muyun arched his hand towards the main hall.

"The emperor said, let you finish the snack and go to see him," Xiao Lingzi said: "You won't make it difficult for the slave, right?" ”

"That's it!" Yang Muyun looked at Xiao Lingzi with a serious look, and then sat back on the ground. He reached out and picked up a piece of rose almond crisp, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly, and suddenly his eyes flashed, and he saw Xiao Lingzi's Adam's apple moving, as if he had swallowed something, and there was a trace of greed in his eyes. picked up a piece of Poria osmanthus cake and handed it over.

"No, no, no, Lord Yang," Xiao Lingzi waved his hand again and again, "This is the emperor's reward for you, I can't ask for it, don't ......" As he spoke, a sweet breath squeezed into his teeth, and the osmanthus cake was stuffed into Yang Muyun's mouth.

"What's the point of eating alone?" Yang Muyun smiled and said, "I can only eat it if you accompany me, besides, I can't finish eating so many dim sum." ”

Xiao Lingzi had to take a bite and hold the rest of the osmanthus cake in his hand.

"I didn't expect the craftsmanship of the concubine to be so good," Yang Muyun said while eating: "This is the best tasting dim sum I have ever tasted." ”

"That's," Xiao Lingzi also said kindly: "The concubine Niangniang not only makes good pastries, but also is very kind, and never beats and scolds the people in the palace!" ”

"Oh," Yang Muyun nodded, "I see Her Royal Highness Princess Yongqing and Concubine Niangniang together, do they get along well?" ”

"Well," Xiao Lingzi said: "The concubine is kind, unlike the queen mother and the queen mother who forced Her Royal Highness the princess to abide by the rules of the palace, so Her Royal Highness the princess often goes to the concubine Niangniang to play." ”

Yang Muyun sighed, and said in her heart that the princess was only twelve years old, and she was innocent like a flower, how could she stand so many shackles. It's no wonder that she secretly went out of the palace to follow the king to the southern capital.
