Zhu Gaoxu came to Liyuan today to meet Shen Xu; He didn't expect to meet Mu Sheng's eldest daughter Mu Zhen in advance. Mu Zhen must have something going on.

He buried his head, tinkered with the kung fu tea utensils on the marble table, and glanced up at Mu Zhen from time to time.

The little lady in front of her will make Zhu Gaoxu think of the climate in Yunnan. On a sunny day, it is clear and bright, but on a rainy day, it is full of dark clouds. When she first met Mu Zhen, she was much more hearty and generous than the average lady; And now, her mood is probably like rainy weather, which makes people feel very dignified.

Her peachy face is full at the top and her chin is delicate, which makes her facial features look very delicate, and also makes her eyes appear large and the emotions in her eyes are extra obvious. What kind of mood she was in was written in those big eyes.

Zhu Gaoxu sat and Mu Zhen stood. They didn't speak for a while, and Zhu Gaoxu felt a little embarrassed. He didn't want to ask more, so he picked up a small cup and said, "Miss Mu, do you like to drink green tea?" ”

Mu Zhen replied, "I don't drink tea anymore." ”

Zhu Gaoxu nodded, and said: "Green tea can be soaked in boiling water, just boil the water and rinse it in, you don't have to be so particular." ”

Mu Zhen didn't say anything, looking like she wanted to say something and stopped. After a while, she finally spoke: "His Royal Highness the King of Han, can you please help my father?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart: Sure enough, something is wrong. He had vaguely guessed that this was the case just now.

He was silent for a moment, sighed, and said, "My status in Yunnan is indeed very high, but many people think too highly of me. What will happen to Mu Mansion, I can't calculate it at all, Miss Mu understands? ”

Mu Zhen suddenly lowered her head, gritted her teeth and suddenly knelt down.

"I can't do it." Zhu Gaoxu stood up, "Miss Mu, I really didn't lie to you!" That's what I say to everyone, and it's the truth. Hu Hu wanted to investigate Jianwen in order to make meritorious service and be promoted; I helped Hu Hui to obey my father's orders and holy decrees. But today, the matter on Dali's side has been reported to Jingshi, who can interfere? ”

"Your Highness can ...... whatever you want" Mu Zhen buried her head, her voice already choked.

Zhu Gaoxu heard something strange, and then observed that her shaved shoulders were trembling slightly.

He was speechless, he said everything that should be said. He really didn't coax Mu Zhen, and now even he himself is still worried, waiting for the emperor above to rearrange Yunnan...... What is the way to influence the emperor's will at this time?

"It's really unruly to get up and speak, and to do this great gift." Zhu Gaoxu could only say.

At this moment, Mu Zhen slowly stood up. Seeing this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Mu Zhen sobbed and said, "I have nothing to give His Highness ......"

Zhu Gaoxu frowned and said, "Why doesn't Miss Mu believe me?" I'm not really here for any good. I have no enmity with Mu Fu, since you have spoken, I will naturally help if I can; But what Miss Mu asked for was no longer something I could do. ”

"As long as I can save my father, I don't even want my life." Mu Zhen's voice has changed, and it makes people feel sad to hear. She paused, then suddenly looked up and said, "I still have one more thing......"

As she spoke, her hands trembled and reached behind her back, and her little face was red and white. Then he turned his head to look at the closed door.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu probably guessed what she was going to do, and he was very surprised for a while...... After a while, I came back to my senses: Mother! His reputation as a lascivious and desolate person in Beijing must have spread to Yunnan. Therefore, Mu Zhen thinks that he is a hungry ghost!

He raised his hand to stop it, but it was too far away, and he blurted out, "Slow! ”

However, it was too late, Mu Zhen had already opened a few strips of clothes one after another, and the cyan lapel robe outside fell to her ankles, revealing the peach-colored belly pocket inside.

Zhu Gaoxu's eyes widened, his whole body froze there, and his expression had become quite ugly.

The material of the silk belly pocket is very soft, and it is a little translucent, and the peach color is the color that many young ladies like, and it looks very tender. Her exposed neck and goose-yellow flawless skin on her collarbones matched the silk material.

Zhu Gaoxu didn't pay attention to seeing such a scene, and his mind went blank for a moment.

When he came back to his senses, Mu Zhen even pulled the strap behind the silk material, and the soft and smooth silk quietly fell to her feet. "This ......" Zhu Gaoxu raised his hand, as if he wanted to pick up her clothes, but it was too late. Mu Zhen's face and ears were flushed, and she stood there, her body shaking.

What is this? Zhu Gaoxu is not confused in his heart, no matter what, Mu Zhen is always the eldest daughter of the marquis, and she is a lady who has not yet left the cabinet. If he did that kind of thing, where would he put the face of the Mu family? Seems like too much!

What's more, Zhu Gaoxu really can't decide Mu Sheng's affairs, isn't that deceiving her innocence? Now he felt that his prince Bigg had fallen to the ground!

"Shall we put on our clothes first?" Zhu Gaoxu was stunned.

Mu Zhen said in a trembling voice: "I haven't given any benefits to Your Highness, why should Your Highness help us?" Don't worry, I won't say it......"

Zhu Gaoxu took two steps forward and wanted to put it on her by himself, but after thinking about it, he stopped again, and it seemed worse to get close to and touch her at this time. He hurriedly said: "I can't promise it?" I will definitely do my best to find a way for Xipinghou! ”

"Is what Your Highness said true?" Mu Zhen folded her arms around her chest.

Zhu Gaoxu nodded.

Mu Zhen hurriedly leaned over and picked up the clothes on the ground, put them on in a panic, and made a sound of "Xi Xi Suosuo". Her hands were shaky and she hadn't been dressed for a while.

When she finally cleaned up, Zhu Gaoxu let out a long breath, and he walked back to the front of the chair and sat down at once. He glanced at the marble case in front of him, picked up a teacup, raised his head and drank it all.

"Your Highness......" Mu Zhen blushed and glanced at him quietly.

Zhu Gaoxu couldn't speak for a long time, and continued to pour tea from the teapot.

I don't know how long it took, there were three knocks on the wooden door, and Wang Gui's voice said: "The slave has something to see." ”

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at Mu Zhen, who was already dressed, and said, "Come in." ”

Wang Gui pushed open the door and bowed inside. Mu Zhen in the room turned her back and avoided Wang Gui. But Wang Gui didn't dare to look left and right at all, as if he hadn't noticed Mu Zhen, he bent over and walked straight to Zhu Gaoxu.

Wang Gui clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "The official of the first line sent by the Jingshi to Annan has just arrived in Kunming City. Hu Guang, the accompanying cabinet official and the right concubine of Youchunfang, came to the Han Palace, and asked to see the prince. ”

"Hu Guang?" Zhu Gaoxu muttered, "This person is an official of the Hanlin Academy and a member of the cabinet, not to mention that he voluntarily surrendered to his father, should he not be sent to Annan?" What is he doing in Yunnan......

"Yes." Wang Gui echoed.

Zhu Gaoxu stood up, paced two steps in place, and said, "Send someone to talk to Mrs. Shen immediately, if she hasn't arrived at the pear orchard, call someone to go to Shen's mansion." I'm sorry to her, I'm leaving for the time being, and I'll talk to her next time. ”

Wang Gui said: "The slave and maid will do it immediately." ”

Zhu Gaoxu continued to ponder...... He hadn't met Hu Guang, but he had heard anecdotes about officialdom. When it was said to be the "Battle of Jingjing", Hu Guang shouted that he wanted to be martyred; When Jing Nanjun really entered Beijing, before he went out that morning, he told his family to "be optimistic about the pigs at home"! This sentence was rumored to be a joke for a while.

But these do not affect Hu Guang's reuse today, what is important today is his attitude of taking the initiative to surrender. Like Chen Ying's person, he was even secretly scolded as an official scum, so he can't be reused today?

After a while, Zhu Gaoxu glanced at Mu Zhen and said, "I'm going back to the house now, if Miss Mu doesn't mind, follow me to the Han Palace?" ”

Mu Hao's eyes looked flustered, as if there was humiliation, remorse and worry, she lowered her head and asked, "Your Highness...... What do you want to do? ”

"Nothing." Zhu Gaoxu replied.

Mu Zhen hesitated for a moment, her white teeth bit her light red and smooth red lips, and nodded vigorously: "Your Highness and I will go down!" ”

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu stood up straight and strode to the door. He saw Mu Zhen's big hat on the wooden table, picked it up, turned around and put the big hat on Mu Zhen's head: "Put it on and follow me." ”

The two of them walked to the corridor outside, and after a while, the guards in the surrounding houses came out, and followed Zhu Gaoxu and others out of the house. The Yi lady in colorful clothes was outside the house and also followed.

Walking out of the pear orchard, Zhu Gaoxu asked the little lady of the Nayi tribe to also get into the carriage. The three of them drove in the same car and drove all the way to the north gate of the Han Palace. Zhu Gaoxu was a little silent, frowning and thinking about things.

I don't know how long it took, the little lady of the Yi tribe said: "We thought His Royal Highness the King of Han was celebrating, you seem to have something on your mind?" ”

Mu Zhen suddenly glared at the little lady, raised her hand and saluted: "Sister doesn't know how to be polite, please forgive your Highness." ”

"Hmm......" Zhu Gaoxu responded.

After a while, Mu Zhen asked cautiously, "That official named Hu Guang is here for the Mu family?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu replied: "I'm not sure at the moment, but I'll know after I see it." ”

Mu Zhen said again: "If Hu Guang is here for the affairs of Mu Mansion, he must ask His Highness to help." For my sake...... For your sake, can Your Highness tell me in advance? ”

Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said, "Okay." ”

The carriage and horse entered the Han Wang's Mansion from Guangzhi Gate, and then stopped in front of the front hall. Zhu Gaoxu got out of the carriage and said to Wang Gui, who was driving the car: "You take them to the study in the east." ”

Wang Gui said: "The slave and maid obey the order. ”

Zhu Gaoxu said to Chen Dazhui again: "Go and tell Qian Changshi or Li Changshi, and after two moments, please ask Hu Gechen to meet in the carrier hall." ”

Chen Dazhui clenched his fists and replied: "Order!" ”

After arranging the matter, Zhu Gaoxu walked straight to the carrier door, he had to change his clothes before meeting the officials from Jingshi. Regardless of whether the current cabinet has power or not, these people are going back to Beijing to face the saints, and it is not a bad thing for Zhu Gaoxu to pay a little attention to the etiquette.
