When night fell, King De came to find Mo Bai again.

I don't know if it was because Mo Bai invited Hu Qingyan and recited scriptures for the first emperor, causing King De to think that he still had his heart for the dynasty and the royal family in his heart.

Mo Bai felt that King De came to find him this time, and his face was obviously much lighter than before, and he even had a few words with Mo Bai, and he was even concerned about whether the Ming Wang's mansion was ready to give the first emperor a funeral tomorrow.

However, Mo Bai knew in his heart that he came here specially and definitely not because of this trivial matter.

Therefore, regardless of whether King De's attitude was better than before, he took the lead in sealing his mouth and said: "Uncle Wang, I have basically tried to help as much as I can, and I still have to rely on you important ministers to deal with other things." ”

When King De heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, I'm not here to do business with you this time." ”

"Oh? Uncle Wang still has time to make a special trip to ask me if the matter of the Ming Wangfu is over? Isn't the palace busy? Mo Bai was a little surprised.

"This ......" King De of course had something to find Mo Bai, but it was a little difficult to speak, and after hesitating for a while, he decided to say directly: "King Ming, you also know that there are too many things to deal with in the palace now, and the matter of the first emperor's blessing, see if you can be a little more low-key." ”

"Huh?" When Mo Bai heard this, he frowned, only felt inexplicable, and said in a deep voice: "I was a mage for the first emperor, and it also affected the government?" ”

"No, don't misunderstand King Ming, it's like this......" King De saw his face change, and hurriedly explained with a wry smile.

Only then did Mo Bai understand that he chanted the sutra nine times, which was not a short time.

When His Majesty saw this, it was not good not to follow him to pray for the good fortune of the first emperor, so if he came a few more times tonight, the palace would not have time to deal with state affairs at all.

To be honest, Mo Bai really hadn't paid attention to this before, when chanting, he devoted himself wholeheartedly, his mind was ethereal, and he really didn't mean to deliberately embarrass Lao Jiu, so he nodded and said: "Understood, don't worry, the Dharma is over." ”

"This is not what Your Majesty meant, King Ming, don't get me wrong." King De was afraid that Mo Bai would spread the news of his greeting, so he explained, after all, if it was spread out, saying that His Majesty did not want to pray for the first emperor, the impact was too bad, and there were some black pots, and he had to carry it for His Majesty.

"I see." Mo Bai doesn't care about the way, but he is a mirror in his heart, I am afraid that it will not only affect his handling of state affairs, but also that he is not used to being too high-profile in the palace.

This little thing, Mo Bai really didn't have the heart to worry so much about him.

"Another thing, I heard that His Highness took out an Evergreen Pill and gave it to Hu Qingyan?" King Tak asked before leaving.

"It's not me, I don't have the Evergreen Pill in my hand for a long time, only the last one in the hands of the queen mother." Mo Bai was a little defensive against King De, afraid that he would ask for it again.

But he didn't want King De to seem to be unintentional, but instead asked: "In this way, even His Royal Highness can't suppress Hu Geshou?" ”

Mo Bai frowned, stared at King De, and said seriously: "Uncle Wang, I told Hu Qingyan before that the Ming Wangfu has no intention and will not get involved in court affairs. Now, I guess I need to be a little clearer. From beginning to end, the Ming Wangfu was only interested in one thing, and that was to resist barbarianism. As long as no one drags their feet in the war against the barbarians, the Ming Wangfu will not take the initiative to embarrass anyone. ”

King De was stunned, looked at Mo Bai, and was silent for a moment before saying: "Now that the power of the ministers is so strong, if the power of the ministers really suppresses the imperial power in the future, His Royal Highness can also sit idly by?" ”

Under the gaze of King De, Mo Bai nodded slowly, and said unwaveringly: "It's still the same sentence, as long as you resist the barbarians, I will support it, otherwise, whoever drags behind will be my enemy." Instead of asking me if I will help the imperial power, it is better to persuade Your Majesty to put more thoughts on resisting barbarians, I am not alarmist, this battle will never be as optimistic as you think, and it is not shy to say that my Ming Wangfu is ready, including this king, all the people are ready to die in battle. ”

"I will persuade Your Majesty." King De listened to Mobai's assurances, but there was no joy.

He knew very well in his heart that this was easy to say, but how could His Majesty ignore other threats and fight the barbarians wholeheartedly?

Mo Bai actually knows this in his heart, so he can't surrender to Lao Jiu, he can only be independent, even if he becomes a thorn in the side of the new monarch, he has to force him to resist the barbarians.

King De was gone, and Mo Bai turned around and returned to the mourning hall again.

But as soon as he arrived at the door, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Ah Jiu? ”

Ah Jiu stood at the door of the mourning hall, heard the voice, hurriedly turned his head to look, saw Mo Bai, and hurriedly came over to salute: "Your Highness." ”

"How did you get into the palace?" Mo Bai was surprised and asked.

Ah Jiu smiled bitterly: "I was about to report to His Highness, the soldiers did not allow me to walk around, so I could only wait for you here." ”

Mo Bai raised his eyes and looked at the two soldiers standing behind Ah Jiu, and didn't say much, just nodded at the two soldiers and said, "I'll say a few words to him!" ”

When the two soldiers heard this, they looked at each other, but they still arched their hands and stepped aside.

Ah Jiu followed Mo Bai towards the corridor on the left outside the door, and came to a distance of about ten meters from the soldiers, and Mo Bai didn't want to embarrass those soldiers. He stood still at the railing and asked in a deep voice, "Is something wrong?" ”

Ah Jiu shook his head and said in a low voice: "The princess has entered the palace, and she is now in the mourning hall." ”

Mo Bai's face suddenly changed slightly, his eyes flashed a few times, he took a step closer to Ah Jiu, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Is she coming by herself?" ”

Ah Jiu rarely saw Mo Bai like this, and he couldn't help but feel a touch of strangeness in his heart, and the corners of his mouth had the urge to twitch, but then he forcibly held back, and didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Mo Bai, so he had to bow his head and say: "The Queen Mother sent someone to our house, directly found the princess, passed on the decree, and let the mother enter the palace to guard the spirit." ”

When Mo Bai heard this, his face quickly sank, and his tone also lowered: "Why don't you stop it?" ”

"Don't dare to stop!" The Queen Mother made a decree, how dare they stop it, Ah Jiu can only tell the truth.

Mo Bai was speechless, glanced at the direction of the mourning hall, and asked again: "Did you come directly to the mourning hall, or did you go to see the queen mother first, did the queen mother call the princess for questioning alone?" ”

"Come directly to the mourning hall, after the queen mother passed the decree, let us enter the palace by ourselves, and only ordered to send the mother directly to the mourning hall to guard the spirit." Ah Jiu shook his head and said.

Mo Bai's heart was slightly relieved, and after thinking about it, he understood what the queen mother meant, this was to show that the princess came on her own initiative and had nothing to do with the middle palace.

"You go out of the palace first, otherwise the Queen Mother is likely to order someone to take you over for questioning." Mo Bai said in a deep voice.

"The Queen Mother instructed me to stay in the palace and take care of the princess at any time." Ah Jiu lowered his head and said with a wry smile.

Mo Bai suddenly felt a headache, the Queen Mother made it clear that she wanted to figure out what was going on, and her heart suddenly sank, and she immediately explained: "If the Queen Mother wants to ask you, you must remember not to talk nonsense, find a reason to deal with the past first." ”

"And what reason should I find?" Ah Jiu couldn't help but have a headache, the Queen Mother must still ask the princess, if he talks nonsense, once it is exposed, I am afraid that the consequences will not be good.

"Do you want me to teach this? Think for yourself, anyway, find a reason to deal with it. At this moment, Mo Bai didn't know what the reason was, his face suddenly turned flat, he taught a lesson, raised his feet and left.

"What do I think about this?" Ah Jiu looked at his back without tears, but suddenly he was stunned: "It seems that I don't have to think about this matter, just say I don't know, the private affairs of the prince and the princess, even if he doesn't know, he will talk about it." ”

Thinking of this, Ah Jiu suddenly relaxed, and under the leadership of the two soldiers, he temporarily went to a palace to settle down.

Mo Bai walked into the mourning hall and saw Lin Suyin kneeling beside the eldest princess at a glance, and her whole body had changed into filial piety clothes.

Mo Bai's steps were a little difficult for a while, and he said to Lin Suyin in person not long ago that she didn't need her to do anything for the Ming Palace, and this voice had not yet landed, so it was like this.

It's really a little embarrassing, he really didn't expect the Queen Mother to go directly to the Ming Wangfu to bring people.

There is no way, the person has come, and he can only face it.

Swept his eyes in the mourning hall, and found that the eyes of many people in the mourning hall were falling on Lin Suyin, as if they were talking about something in a low voice, including the eldest princess, no one talked to Lin Suyin.

Mo Bai listened carefully, and immediately knew what these people were talking about.

How could there be good words, it was nothing more than accusing Lin Suyin of daring not to come to the wake these days.

As a royal person, they were already unfriendly to Lin Suyin, and after such an experience, it was natural for them to isolate Lin Suyin.

This is also Mo Bai Wei, they just whispered, did not point at Lin Suyin's nose, and scolded in person.

Seeing Mo Bai coming in, the whispering quickly disappeared, and Mo Bai had no choice but to pretend to be idle and walk to the position next to Lin Suyin and kneel.

Lin Suyin raised her eyes and glanced at him, lowered her gaze again, and didn't say a word.

Mo Bai thought about it, but he didn't know what to say, if he explained, this was not the place, so he had to be silent.

On the side, the eldest princess turned her eyes around the two of them, and finally didn't make a sound.

The wake is boring, at the beginning the crying shook the sky, but today, after all, they have accepted the news of His Majesty's death, and there are not many people who can cry, even the female relatives cry less.

Most of the time I just sit on my knees, silently watching the incense burn, waiting for the last night to pass.

As the night progressed, from time to time there were people in the mourning hall who couldn't hold on to getting up and going out, and came back after a while.

Some of them are young, or weak, and there are many people who go to the harem to rest.

Mo Bai turned his head to look at Lin Suyin, and saw that her face was already a little pale, after all, she couldn't use cultivation during pregnancy, and her energy was not as good as that of ordinary people.

"Let's get up and rest for a while!" Mo Bai said softly.

Lin Suyin lowered her head and didn't seem to hear it.

Seeing this, Mo Bai had to be silent, and after a while, someone behind him suddenly touched him, Mo Bai turned around, and saw the eldest princess say: "The imperial dining room has made supper, you accompany the princess to eat something, the night is still long." ”

When Mo Bai heard this, he said to Lin Suyin again: "Let's go." ”

At this time, the people in the mourning hall all looked this way, and under everyone's gaze, Lin Suyin nodded.

When he got up, Mo Bai helped him, Lin Suyin didn't refuse, and the two walked out of the mourning hall.

When he came to the corridor, there was no one around, and Mo Bai said slowly: "I'm sorry, the queen mother went to find you, I don't know." ”

"Got it." Lin Suyin replied.
