Mentioning Rong Che's matter, a royal historian stood up and stepped forward to salute.

"Your Majesty, General Mu Yuan was bewitched by the demon woman of the Xin family, and almost made a big mistake, and privately thought that he should be punished. "Yushi Dao.

Murong Zuoxiang walked out and saluted: "Mu Xiaogongzi killed his relatives in righteousness, and pushed this matter out with his own hands for the sake of border peace, Weichen feels that the Mu family is at fault, but the merits and demerits are offset, the big crime can be avoided, and the small punishment can be done." ”

Duan Yin said: "The Mu family has guarded Nanzhao County for many years, and has made great achievements, but this time it was not a big mistake after all, and Weichen also felt that a small punishment was enough." ”

Rong Che's expression was not so good, the Mu family was too powerful, and he had guarded Nanzhao for so many years, and the small country did not dare to invade it, which naturally made him feel at ease, but Nanzhao was too far away from Chang'an after all, if he didn't control the Mu family well, he was afraid that the Mu family would become the second Dingbei Hou Mansion.

The second prince, Rong Yu, was the most observant of words and expressions, and when he saw that the emperor's face seemed to be a little unhappy, he stepped forward and said: "Father, the son thinks that Mu Yuan has already had a different heart, if he lets it go, won't it encourage other people to have thoughts that they shouldn't have?"

"Yes!" a royal historian walked out and said, "Although it was not a big mistake, Mu Yuan finally had a different heart, and he was ashamed of the emperor and the court's trust in him, and the Mu family naturally had to punish him severely." ”

Hearing that the second prince wanted to severely punish the Mu family, but the fourth prince wanted to come to him, where the Mu family's power is, how could it be said that it would fall? What's more, the fourth prince has now been hit a lot by the second prince, and almost all the chess pieces under his hands have been solved by the second prince between games.

It is precisely when it is time to win over the courtiers, although the military power of the Mu family is not as good as that of the Dingbei Hou Mansion, but the strength is not bad, if it can be wooed, it will certainly be good for itself.

The fourth prince coughed lightly: "Erchen thinks that General Mu Yuan was bewitched by the Xin family, although it is wrong, but Mu Lin's righteous killing of his relatives shows that Mu Lin's heart is still towards the court, not to mention that Mu Yuan has been poisoned and died, even if it is severely punished, it cannot be severely punished on Mu Lin's head, otherwise it will not be a mistake to pay Mu Lin's behavior." ”

Hearing the words of the fourth prince, the emperor's face became even darker: "According to what you say, not only can I not cure the Mu family's crimes, but also reward him well, right?"

Even if the fourth prince was a fool, he could see that the emperor was unhappy, and he hurriedly explained: "Erchen didn't mean that, Erchen just admired Mu Lin's decisiveness and thought about the interests of the court. ”

The words of the fourth prince made the emperor sneer and said: "You admire him? Do you still want to learn from him to kill his relatives in righteousness, and then seize power from his father?"

Hearing the emperor's words, the faces of the four princes suddenly turned pale.

He knelt down suddenly: "Erchen doesn't dare! Even if he borrows ten guts from Erchen, Erchen will never be able to do such a thing!"

The silence in the whole court was terrifying.

The fourth prince actually said that he admired Mu Lin's righteous annihilation, but Mu Lin stepped on his father's throne and won the military power of the Mu family.

Seeing that the fourth prince was stupid, the second prince was very proud in his heart.

If you want to go against yourself, you're a little tender!

Now among the emperor's several princes, the most promising one is him and this good fourth brother, and now seeing the fourth brother making stupid mistakes again and again, Rong Yu is not afraid of such an opponent at all.

He is bound to win the position of prince.

But he didn't know that his strength was so obvious, he was the most suitable person to inherit the throne, why did his father refuse to make himself the crown prince?

The court was quiet and terrible, and the emperor looked at the four princes who were kneeling on the ground trembling, and his eyes were a little disappointed.

Just scared out of your guts?

He said a little impatiently: "That's it, in a few days, Mu Lin will go to Chang'an and personally ask for guilt, and the Imperial Inspectorate will discuss it well." ”

The sweat on the foreheads of the four princes kneeling on the ground was already about to burst out.

Rong Qi looked at all this lightly, and saw the second prince's smug expression, and his eyes became even deeper.

Guo Qichun looked at this scene, sighed lightly, and secretly said in his heart that the son-in-law he chose was more reliable.

Although the three princes suffer from dumb diseases on the surface, but even so, the emperor's attitude towards the three princes is still more special than that of other princes.

Just watching the fourth prince being suppressed by the second prince to this point, Guo Qichun felt that it was not wrong for the third prince to be more forbearing.

But now it seems that the four princes probably won't last long.

After King Xuan returns, it should be time for the "dumb disease" of the third prince to get better.

The situation in Chang'an is changing, but Ji Yanning doesn't need to pay attention to these things.

After all, I have to go back.

After walking for a month, Rong Che and Ji Yanning arrived in Liangzhou.

Compared with the previous three places, Ji Yanning felt that Liangzhou should be the easiest place to get the bones, after all, in Liangzhou, there was no enemy she wanted to take revenge on, and there was no case that she had to investigate.

It's almost April now, and the weather is getting a little hotter.

When they arrived in Liangzhou, they did not alarm the local government, nor did they go to Baochangji to arrange a residence, but found an inn to live in.

Because they brought a lot of people, and they didn't want to be disturbed, they directly chartered a whole inn.

When the shopkeeper saw them so arrogant, his eyes were about to straighten, and he naturally wanted to entertain them.

Chang'an in Liangzhou is not far away, and if you are in a carriage, it is more than enough to go back in about ten days, so Ji Yanning and they are not in a hurry.

After coming to Liangzhou, I rested for two days before I began to look for her tomb in the place where the green branch confided.

The place where the bones are buried is not far from Liangzhou City, on the outskirts of the city, and according to the locals, it only takes an hour to arrive.

However, when Ji Yanning arrived at the outskirts of the city, he was a little dumbfounded.

"Are you sure it's here?" Ji Yanning raised his eyes and looked at Yuan Wu on the side.

Yuan Wu nodded and said, "According to the interrogation, it shouldn't be done." And the subordinates asked the people in this vicinity, the original owner of this land died ten years ago, and then this land came into the hands of his son-in-law, and in the past two years, it was sold to others, and the new owner heard that the feng shui here is good, and then built a Zhuangzi here. ”

In front of Ji Yanning's eyes was a Zhuangzi who had already built a wall.

"What about the surroundings?" Ji Yanning asked again, "Have you ever found a lonely grave around?"

Yuan Wu shook his head and said, "The subordinates searched around several times, but they didn't find it, so the subordinates felt that the place where the bones were buried should be enclosed in this Zhuangzi." ”

Ji Yanning asked again: "Who is the owner of this Zhuangzi?"

Yuan Wu replied truthfully: "It is a businessman surnamed Yao. ”

Ji Yanning's eyes moved slightly and rubbed his head.

Rong Che, who was on the side, said, "Let's go and have a look first." ”

Ji Yanning nodded, and the group immediately stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Not long after, a small servant came over and opened the door, and the little servant looked at a few of them, seemed to be a little displeased, frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

Hearing that the little guy asked not "who are you looking for", but "who are you", Ji Yanning raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling that something was wrong.

She said: "We want to buy a piece of land nearby, and we see that your Zhuangzi is good, so we want to buy it, I don't know who your master is? ”

When the little guy heard Ji Yanning say this, he looked at her and Rong Che, and it didn't look like an ordinary person.

He said, "Let's go, our Zhuangzi is not for sale." ”

Ji Yanning said: "Money is not a problem, you can ...... as much as you want."

It's just that before he finished speaking, the little guy directly closed the door of Zhuangzi.

Ji Yanning and Rong Che glanced at each other, they didn't expect that even a little guy on this Zhuangzi would be so arrogant?

Yuan Wu said: "When the subordinates came yesterday, they originally wanted to disguise themselves as passers-by begging for water to drink, but they didn't even look at them, and they closed the door directly. ”

The people on this Zhuangzi are really a little unkind.

Rong Che said: "It's okay to break in directly. ”

Ji Yanning said: "This movement is too big, and we don't know who the master of this Zhuangzi is." ”

Rong Che saw that she looked a little lost, and couldn't help but reach out and rub her hair, and chuckled, "Don't worry." ”

They have a lot of time, and this is the third day of coming to Liangzhou, so there is no need to be in such a hurry.

Ji Yanning nodded, she was indeed a little anxious, but that was also because it had been almost a year since she came out.

However, hearing Rong Che's words, she is indeed a lot more relieved now.

Rong Che said: "I'll go to check the owner of this Zhuangzi, and by the way, ask him if he is willing to sell this Zhuangzi." ”

Ji Yanning bowed: "That's all." ”

They went back to the inn in Liangzhou City, and Rong Che sent someone to investigate the situation in this Zhuangzi again.

Things didn't go well, Ji Yanning was not interested, and rarely saw the sad face of the eldest lady, Pearl suggested: "Eldest Miss, we have just arrived in Liangzhou, why don't we go out and shop and buy some fun things." ”

Anyway, there was nothing else to do, Ji Yanning put down the book in his hand and said, "Okay." ”

Pearl laughed and said, "Ziyu didn't come out together, we can pick some gifts for her to take back." Well...... There are also Miss Yuan and Shiso's. ”

Looking at the pearl, Ji Yanning couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Okay, let's go out for a walk." ”

She took the pearl out of the inn and wandered the streets.

Although Liangzhou City is not as prosperous and lively as Chang'an City, it is much better than Qianzhou City.

Pearl looked at the gadgets on the street and had to go up and take a look.

"Miss, what do you think of this?" Pearl picked up a gadget that looked good, and looked back to ask Ji Yanning.

It's just that as soon as she turned around, she bumped into a man, who was holding a lantern in his hand, and was hit by the pearl and fell directly to the ground.
