"Yan'er walked away in the ghost gate, and now he has just recovered from his injury, although he didn't take the initiative to mention anything to you, but I, a mother, can't see it, he hasn't been looking forward to your words coming true all the time. I still remember how he was lost and devastated when he learned that you became the crown princess, I really don't want him to be heartbroken again, it can be regarded as a mother's selfishness, I want to make up for the confusion in the past. Su Mu's eyes were earnest, and her tone was even more unshy about revealing the meaning of pleading.

"But I ......" Mu Yunyi hesitated, her heart for Su Yan was no longer the same love she had at the beginning, what she loved deeply in her heart and couldn't let go of was Mu Xiu, even if Mu Xiu didn't "come back from the dead", she couldn't accept others anymore.

"Now that the situation is stable, Dongzhao and Xiqiong are not as incompatible as they were in the past few hundred years, if you get married, you don't have to worry about other people's gossip." Su Mu smiled kindly, "If you marry into the Zhenguo Mansion, I will definitely hurt you like a concubine." ”

"Thank you Madame for your attention, but now that Yun Duo has first ascended the throne, there are still many light and dark forces in the West Dome Court that need to be stabilized, and the dissenting hearts of the Quartet need to be removed, I am the most trustworthy person in Yun Duo, and I have no plans to get married at the moment, let alone marry far away to Dongzhao." Su Mu got straight to the point, and Mu Yunyi also replied bluntly.

Su Mu smiled faintly, as if she expected Mu Yunyi's words, and her eyes suddenly became shrewd and compelling: "It is precisely because the Xiqiong Dynasty has just undergone earth-shaking changes that you should marry Dongzhao and marry the Zhenguo Mansion." ”

Mu Yunyi's eyebrows moved slightly, she knew that before Su Mu came to her today, she must have made a lot of "preparations", even so, she wanted to see Su Mu's next words, which could persuade and impress her.

"Now that the situation in the West Dome is generally stable, with your emperor's grandfather's edict, the identity of the new emperor is justified and undoubted, and I heard that the princess and Brother Ling's methods are also thunderous and fruitful, and they are not merciful to those who have different intentions and oppose the new emperor, but even so, during the reign of Mu Ling and Empress Dowager Fu, there were countless minions, as the princess said, it is not an overnight thing to remove all obstacles."

Su Mu said as she brushed over a bamboo leaf blocking her beside her, "Just like the bamboo in this garden, no matter how carefully and carefully it is pruned by the subordinates, there will inevitably be these branches and leaves hidden in the dark, and they will stretch out to block their way unawares." ”

"Smack!" Mu Yunyi pinched his fingers and stretched out his hand to pull off the row of branches and leaves in front of the two, but there were still many branches and leaves sticking out in front of the two, Mu Yunyi pointed and said: "It is this reason, as Mrs. said, how can I put aside the unresolved court at this time and marry someone else?" ”

"But the princess was born in the palace since she was a child, and she went in and out of the court, she should know the safety of the country, in addition to the causes of internal troubles, there are more external troubles to take care of."

Sure enough, Su Mu did not disappoint her, and soon put her "chips" on the table one by one.

Su Mu had already read it from Mu Yunyi's eyes, and she already understood what she meant, but she still continued: "Since ancient times, when the throne changed and the court changed hands, it was a new beginning, but at the same time, it was accompanied by huge hidden dangers. ”

I have to admit that what Su Mu said is what Mu Yunyi is most concerned about now, the internal forces of the DPRK have almost been balanced and stabilized, but many foreign countries are eyeing each other openly and secretly, and it is not enough to deal with the forces of the old dynasty.

"What does Madam think will happen between Dongzhao and Xiqiong?" Mu Yunyi's eyes were sharp.

Su Mu said humbly and calmly: "As a courtier, my Zhenguo Mansion is naturally of one heart and one mind with the emperor. ”

"Then dare to ask, what is the emperor's heart?"

Su Mu's face became more and more respectful and said: "How can the Sacred Heart be something that our courtiers can speculate about. ”

Mu Yunyi also smiled calmly, this was the answer she expected, this Duchess of Zhenguo has always been leaky.

"But ......," Su Mu changed her words and continued, "Although I can't guess the holy will as a courtier, I can be sure of one thing. ”

"Oh?" Mu Yunyi looked at Su Mu with interest: "Listen to me." ”

"Although my Zhenguo Mansion is not a royal family of the clan, but in the past hundred years, the status of Dongzhaojun, presumably the princess knows a little bit about it, if the princess is still with my Su family, then it is not just the Zhenguo Mansion standing behind you......"

The status of the Zhenguo Mansion in Dongzhao, Mu Yunyi doesn't know a thing or two? Although it is not a royal clan, it has a status beyond that of the prince in the hearts of the royal family and subjects, and the Su family has been in a high position for generations, but it has never made successive emperors jealous of its power or questioned its loyalty, so it can be seen that the Su family is wise and respectful in the court. On the other hand, Su Yan's late father Zhenguo Gong and Emperor Donglin Xun were friends of life and death who grew up together, Su Mu and the late Empress Yeyang were close friends, Su Yan and Su Yan were raised in the palace for half of the time since childhood, it is no exaggeration to say that with the support of the Zhenguo Mansion, it is equivalent to the royal family and even the entire Dongzhao will become Mu Yunyi's help.

A marriage can obtain such majestic power, I have to say, this condition is really very tempting.

"Yan'er will inherit his father's title, this is a tacit thing for everyone in Dongzhao, not long ago, the emperor also made it clear to me that after the first queen's mourning period expires for three months, he will choose an auspicious day to seal Yan'er as the Duke of Yunguo, so although it is not as good as the prince's Tianlong life, but the grandfather of Dongzhao Xiaoguo should be worthy of the princess."

Seeing that Mu Yunyi's eyes were unwavering, Su Mu continued: "Naturally, I know that you never care about any position of power, princess, but the court of the West Dome cares, and Princess An and Princess of the West Dome must also care. ”

Mu Yunyi's footsteps that were originally moving slowly suddenly stopped at this moment, not because she was really moved, but because Su Mu had seen the situation inside and outside the court in the West Dome and the situation of their sister and brother thoroughly.

"Duchess Guo, I have your words today."

Mother Su took Mu Yunyi's hand and put it in her palm, patted it lightly and said, "I hope that one day, the princess will no longer call me Duchess Guo." ”

After the prince Dongling Yi returned to the palace, he resumed the morning dynasty the next day, and his diligence day and night was better than before.

On this morning, the ministers looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince standing at the head of the hundred officials, and saw that although there was still sadness in his eyes, compared to the day when the first queen died, the prince at this moment had his hair shaved and his python robe was erected, and his vitality had obviously recovered.

When the crown prince left the palace to wake the spirit of the first queen, the emperor told him that he would only give him one month, and after a month his people and hearts would return. Obviously, the prince of Dongzhao never disappointed the emperor and courtiers.
