After Master Qi and the others left, Mu Shaoning paced in the study, thinking about how this matter should be done.

At this time, Zhiyuan knocked on the door and came in and presented a letter: "Master, this is news from the northwest, the king of the northwest has suppressed the Xiongnu, but he has not killed them all." As for Prince Gu, the King of the Northwest seems to be extraordinary to him. ”

Mu Shaoning quickly opened the letter, and after reading it in a hurry, his tone was sarcastic.

"Although the king of the northwest is a woman, he is also quite scheming, as long as the Huns are still there, the court will not move her, once she is moved, the Huns will not be able to bear it, and it is inevitable that something will happen. The kingdom of heaven is in turmoil, and no one wants to see it. ”

Zhiyuan understands Mu Shaoning's heart the most, and the only thing he can see is himself, and there is no one else.

"If the king of the northwest supports Prince Gu, I'm afraid we will have some difficulties."

"Something tough?!"

Mu Shaoning didn't smile and sat behind the long table: "It's not so simple, the power held by the King of the Northwest cannot be underestimated, if you really support my good brother, I'm afraid there will be trouble."

"Then we have to do defense." All Zhiyuan can think of is this.

He's a personal guard, not a strategist.

For Mu Shaoning, he doesn't need a strategist, all he can rely on is himself.

"Let's not talk about these first, even if Jincheng is rich enough, what the imperial court should give will still be given. Before the king of the northwest defeated the Huns, there was no movement on the side of the concubine, but I was afraid that there would be a gap in the heart of the king of the northwest. ”

changed his clothes and went directly to Kunning Palace.

There was a distance between the East Palace and the Kunning Palace, and walking over was just enough for him to think clearly.

Except for Zhiyuan who followed closely, the others were separated by a few steps, and the prince's standard personnel must be there.

"Recently, there are people in and out of Kunning Palace, except for the officials who can enter the palace in the court."

Zhiyuan was half a step behind Mu Shaoning, and told everything he knew.

"Yes, a few of them are related to the royal family of the previous dynasty, and every time they come, they will carry a large number of pearls and jade, I am afraid that they will have something to ask for."

Listening to those names, Mu Shaoning's expression was even more ugly, the north wind was howling, bringing a floral fragrance, but it was not like the fragrance of plum blossoms, it was too strong.

"What's going on?"

Zhiyuan looked at it and came over to say: "It is to send flowers to Kunning Palace, Concubine Jingshu spent a lot of money to build a flower room, and it includes two palaces, which costs a lot of money."

Later, he even leaned into Mu Shaoning's ear and said a number, which was enough to pay a frontier army's salary for several months.

Mu Shaoning's face was as gloomy as iron, and his hands under the wide sleeves were clenched tightly, obviously unable to calm the anger in his heart.

However, he has always been a person who can pretend, and by the time he walked to the gate of Kunning Palace, he had returned to his previous style.

He hadn't paid much attention before, but this time he saw it for real.

The previous style of Kunning Palace was simple and generous, elegant and luxurious but low-key, and now it is almost luxurious and bright.

Since entering the palace gate, the sound of saluting and greeting has not stopped, and when she was in the Flower Palace before, Concubine Jing Shu did not have so many palace maids to serve.

The palace maids who come and go are all beautiful noodles and dressed elegantly, and the cloak is not the level of the palace maid.

"Can the winter clothes of the concubines in the harem be distributed this year?"

Zhiyuan shook his head: "No, only the amount was sent to Concubine Xian, and nothing else."

Mu Shaoning felt that anger was brewing in his heart, which made him a little dizzy, but he was extremely sober, and the whole person seemed to be divided.

Without speaking, he walked straight in, and the wind blew his coat, carrying the cold of winter, which was terrifying.

Unlike the concubine who likes to stay in the dormitory, Concubine Xian likes to stay in the warm pavilion, Concubine Jing Shu likes to stay in the main hall, the earth dragon is burning very strongly, and when Mu Shaoning walked in front of Concubine Jingshu, she felt that she was sweating.

And Concubine Jing Shu was very leisurely asking the maid next to her to trim her nails, and what was in front of her was a fold.

There is ambergris wafting inside, the fragrance that belongs to the emperor.

Mu Shaoning's expression was very ugly, but he saluted very politely: "The child has seen the mother concubine."

Concubine Jing Shu had already seen it when he first came in, but it was only at this time that she glanced at him lazily, not happy, not angry.

"Ning'er, it's going to be night soon, what are you doing here? Today, the old immortal East Palace in the household department, is it for this? ”

Concubine Jing Shu knew what was going on in this palace, and Mu Shaoning didn't feel curious, and stood up, still the gentle and elegant fifth prince at the beginning.

"Mother, you asked people to remove a large amount of silver taels from the household department, which is the military salary of the frontier, if you don't receive it on time, it will inevitably be unrest at that time. Several countries are around, and we have to be careful. ”

These words were well-intentioned, but Concubine Jing Shu's willow eyebrows were upside down, and her momentum was full, and the maid next to her cut her jade finger with a trembling hand, watching the drop of blood slowly slide down, Concubine Jing Shu just gave Peony a look.

Of course, the maid will definitely not live.

"Wait, I think this palace maid is very good-looking, which is very much to my liking, what is her name?"

The palace maid knelt down with a thud, and many people could hear the loud voice, and involuntarily glanced at Concubine Jing Shu, and then replied.

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, the slave's name is Danxue."

"Danxue? It's a good name, there are very few maids in my East Palace, and you used to serve His Royal Highness. ”

Danxue naturally wants to respond, if she can become a woman of His Royal Highness the Prince, she will naturally be the concubine of the harem in the future, not necessarily, she can be more brilliant than Concubine Jingshu.

Her thoughts, Concubine Jing Shu didn't need to think about it, she just glanced lazily, and then looked at Mu Shaoning who was standing at the bottom of the steps.

"You are so majestic, but there are really few people on your side, so this woman will give it to you. You all stand down. ”

After everyone except the peony left the main hall, Concubine Jing Shu got up and walked down, the skirt was at least two meters, and the auspicious pattern was woven with gold thread, and there were many precious diamonds and jewelry.

Peony tidied up the skirt and then came down, following the same steps, cautiously.

"Those on the frontier are just some rude barbarians, who were able to betray the previous dynasty at the beginning, and now they are naturally able to betray the night country. It is necessary to let them know what is the glory of the royal family and what is the majesty of the empire. ”

The sound seemed to be three hundred and sixty degrees around Mu Shaoning's ears, making him only feel that the magic sound was in his ears and he was in a depressed mood.

However, he finally knew why the previous dynasty would perish, and what was the point of their bloody sacrifice with such a royal family who disregarded the lives of their soldiers.

"This is the kingdom of heaven, and the majesty is established by the royal family itself, not by the complaints of the soldiers."

"Presumptuous ......"
