In the imperial palace, there was a sluggish atmosphere at this time.

The emperor frowned, his face was like sauce, the atmosphere was very depressing, and it took a long time for him to speak in a low voice.

"There is such a thing happening, it is my negligence, fortunately, Princess Leqi is not worried about her life, it seems that the post station can not continue to live, if Princess Leqi doesn't mind, move to the palace to live, right?"

But his words did not ease the oppressive atmosphere, and the faces of the envoys of Pan State were like ashes, and their eyes were not kind to the emperor.

"Hmph, it's not safe to move to the palace, right?"

In the capital at the feet of the Son of Heaven, their princesses were all killed by assassins, how can they guarantee that this is not a ploy of Dongyue Kingdom?

In this way, even if you move to the palace, wouldn't that be tantamount to throwing yourself into the net?

The emperor looked at the face of the envoy, his brows furrowed deeper into a small hill, he gave Pan Guo face, but Pan Guo sarcastically ridiculed him with other intentions.

As the lord of a country, when he was about to get angry and ask angrily, Le Qi observed that his face was wrong.

Secretly ripped off the clothes of the envoy next to him, and said with a smile: "The person who comes is a guest, since this is the case, then Le Qi is all under the emperor's command." ”

The emperor's anger was extinguished a little, but his attitude was obviously much colder, and he just snorted and answered.

Seeing this, Le Qi knew that her people had annoyed the emperor.

She secretly gave the envoy a sharp look, and said in a low voice: "This is Dongyue Kingdom, not Pan Kingdom, you must know how to be proportionate, otherwise the emperor of Dongyue Kingdom will be angry, let alone harmony, I'm afraid we won't even be able to get out of Dongyue Kingdom." ”

The envoy chuckled, his face red for a while and white for a while.

He was too anxious about Le Qi's safety just now, but seeing that she said so, he didn't continue to make things difficult in the future.

Seeing him take a half step back, Le Qi retracted his gaze, and said with a smile: "Speaking of this assassination, it was also a loss to General Mu Chen, if it weren't for him, I'm afraid Le Qi would have already suffered an accident." ”

For this matter, the emperor knows that he is at a loss, and it is not good to continue to keep a straight face, "General Mu has a reward for escorting, I don't know what General Mu wants?" ”

Mu Chen's face was expressionless, and he said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "The minister is responsible for the defense of Kyoto City, and the minister has been derelict in his duties, and he does not dare to ask for any more rewards, and he also asks the emperor to punish him." ”

Since he returned to Beijing, the emperor has given him the responsibility for defending the capital.

Le Qi had already inquired about Mu Chen's background information, so she naturally knew what Mu Chen's position was for.

So what she said just now was also deliberate, and she smiled cleverly when the atmosphere was quiet, "Since General Mu said that he was derelict in his duties, I have a way for him to make up for his mistakes." ”

The emperor didn't want to punish Mu Chen, after all, in this special period, in the face of Heqin and Pan Guo's situation that they were ready to attack at any time, he couldn't punish Mu Chen.

So hearing Le Qi's words was very embarrassing, a touch of curiosity appeared on his face, and a smile appeared, "Oh? Princess Lucky, please speak. ”

"Can General Mu be taken in charge of my safety? In this way, I and my envoys will be more assured, and I believe that when it reaches the ears of my Amma, he will also be happy. ”

Why didn't the emperor understand what she meant?

This Princess Le Qi seems to be pure and innocent, but her mind is so deep,

The envoys and the king of Pan were coercing him, and if he did not agree, I am afraid that the atmosphere would become more delicate and embarrassing.

However, he still has the thoughts of his youngest daughter, and he still wants to flirt with Mu Chen, since this is the case, he has nothing to agree.

He snorted coldly in his heart, but he didn't show it.

After pondering for a while, he nodded in agreement, "Okay, then everything will be done according to Princess Leqi." ”

After hearing this, Mu Chen's handsome brows furrowed, and he glanced at the emperor suspiciously, not understanding what he meant.

Just when he wanted to stand up and refuse, the emperor waved his hand and said, "It's decided like this, retreat from the dynasty." ”

Mu Chen looked at the back of the emperor leaving, and a chill flashed in his eyes, and he could only hold back his anger for the time being.

"General Mu, I'll trouble you to take care of it later." Le Qi stepped forward with a smile, feeling proud in her heart.

What if it's as cold as a living Hades?

Don't you have to obediently obey the emperor's arrangement?

She didn't believe that this man could still treat her coldly these days.

Mu Chen's consciousness was pulled back, and his cold gaze calmly glanced at the playful woman in front of him, "The minister is just following the will, and he will do his duty to protect Princess Le Qi." ”

After saying that, he does not make a stop.

He wanted to go to the imperial study to ask what the emperor meant, was the previous one just playing tricks on him?

Le Qi looked at his back as he left with anger, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile of odds and arrogance, which was really getting more and more interesting.

She must go to this general's mansion, and she must also sit in the position of the general's wife!

After all, she is the most respected princess in Pan Kingdom, she has been pampered since she was a child, and she can't hold half a sand in her eyes.

"Who did the assassination this time?"

Dahl, who was hiding behind the envoy, walked out and said loudly: "Back to the princess, look at the back image of a tall man, and the specific is still under investigation." ”

"Oh? Interesting. Le Qi's eyes flashed with obscurity.

She originally thought that she would be the legendary miracle doctor, that is, Song Mingyue, but now it seems that she is still a man, and this matter is really getting more and more interesting.

"Check, keep checking."

She intuitively thought that things would not be so simple, even if it really had nothing to do with Song Mingyue, she would have to create some connections.

Only in this way can Song Mingyue lose his morality, and there is a reason for Mu Chen to take a break from Song Mingyue.

At that time, the position of the general's wife will naturally be hers!

"Yes." Dahl nodded, and Song Mingyue's figure flashed in his mind, and he didn't know why he vaguely felt that this matter had something to do with her.

It's just that the man who led him away, and through Mu Chen's mouth, he learned that chasing him out was also because of this man, which made him a little confused.

The Imperial Study.

"Your Majesty, General Mu is asking to see you outside." The father-in-law said respectfully.

The emperor was correcting the recital, and after hearing his words, the movements in his hands paused, and a trace of exhaustion and sorrow flashed on his forehead.

understands why Mu Chen came to him, but he is also helpless, he can't let Pan Guo attack Dongyue Kingdom, right?

And he didn't promise to let Mu Chen marry Le Qi, so it stands to reason that he didn't go against his original promise.

"Alas, you go and tell him that I am tired, and that he has something to do and come to me tomorrow."

"Yes." Justice.

"Father-in-law, how's it going?" Mu Chen saw the door open and asked.

The father-in-law looked at his cold face, was startled, and shook his head helplessly, "General Mu, the emperor is tired, let me convey to you, and come to the emperor tomorrow." ”

Mu Chen frowned, his deep gaze narrowed slightly, and he looked in the direction of the door like a sharp sword, as if he could see through the door and see the person sitting inside.

Directly towards the door, he shouted coldly: "Doesn't the emperor dare to see his ministers?" ”

The emperor stopped the pen in his hand, knowing Mu Chen's stubborn temperament, he was afraid that he would not leave without a reasonable reason today.

He sighed helplessly and said tiredly, "Let him come in." ”

After hearing this, Mu Chen walked in directly with a cold face, and when he passed by his father-in-law's side, the latter obviously felt a cold air hitting his body.

It was as if it could freeze him and he couldn't move.

This is worthy of the living king of Hades, no wonder the emperor also wants to give three points of thin noodles.

Not enough for this kind of harmony.......

The father-in-law shook his head regretfully, thinking that it could not be avoided.

"Please also ask the emperor to make it clear, why did the hall agree to Pan Guo's request just now?" Mu Chen walked in and got straight to the point.

The palace was already heavily guarded, and there was another general in charge of the palace's security guarding it, so there would be no problems at all.

Mosquitoes from the outside world have always wanted to get in, and I'm afraid it's difficult to climb to the sky.

Let him protect Le Qi is simply too much.

The most important thing is that he feels that Song Mingyue has been emotionally unstable recently, and he has faintly doubted the relationship between him and Le Qi.

He didn't want Song Mingyue to be too careful, and he didn't want to break her heart.

The emperor expected him to ask like this, so he sighed helplessly and explained: "I know that General Mu is not afraid to fight with Pan Guo, but he can implicate the lives of innocent people, and I am also helpless. ”

Seeing that Mu Chen didn't say anything, he continued.

"General Mu should know the grim situation at the border pass, right? I thought you would understand me, and I promised you that I would never force you to marry Princess Lucky. ”

"Then does the emperor understand the ministers, and Yue'er?" Mu Chen said coldly.

The atmosphere in the entire imperial study room was extremely cold, as if it was freezing and breaking at any time.

"I know that General Mu has a grudge in his heart, but if I can make the border people less threatened for this, I am willing."

He knew that Mu Chen had a deep relationship with Song Mingyue, and he also knew that the royal family owed Song Mingyue a favor, and he was not an ungrateful person.

But knowing that there are too many explanations now, I'm afraid Mu Chen won't be able to listen to it.

Mu Chen's deep gaze fell on the emperor, as if he wanted to see him through, and said coldly: "I hope this is the last time, and I also hope that the emperor can remember the kindness of the Mu family to the royal family a few years ago, and the promise you made at the beginning!" ”

When the words fell, the emperor's face instantly stiffened like a pig's liver.

How could he have forgotten?

In the early years, the soldiers of the Mu family paid too much for that turmoil, and it was precisely because of the shogunate's efforts that the status of Dongyue Kingdom was completely stabilized.

Since then, it has also become a big country, so that many surrounding countries dare not underestimate it.

But the Mu family also paid a terrible price for this, and almost wiped out, leaving Mu Chen and a little doll behind.

And he heard that the little doll was so weak that he couldn't even do it.

I don't know what the condition of the little doll is now, time has passed, and this is still a thorn in his heart.

He was guilty of the Mu family, so he may have made a promise back then that he would not coerce the Mu family to do anything, and even made a pardon order!

But if the day of the pardon is really used, it is estimated that it will also be the day when the royal family and Mu Chen completely turn their faces.

Now that the situation in the court is turbulent, he needs Mu Chen's support, and once he leaves Mu Chen, I am afraid that King Xuanyuan will not be able to bear it.

After a long time, he came back to his senses and let out a long breath.

"Shall I forget? If you don't want to go, I'll explain the situation to Pan Guo in person, and then send other generals to go. ”
