Chapter 241: Jade Pendant
Seeing that Mu Liancheng didn't react, Mu Ziyan continued: "Second brother, don't forget your identity, as the emperor of Dayan, you must take care of your health, for the sake of the country and the people, you can't do anything!" ”
"Even if the frivolous sister is no longer by your side, you are very sad, but you can't live so negatively, you ......"
"I know my identity and responsibilities very well, I don't need you to remind me!" Mu Liancheng interrupted Mu Ziyan's words, his face sank, and his whole person was shrouded in a layer of cold air.
Mu Ziyan knew that it was because she mentioned Feng Qingmad and poked him in the sore spot, so she hurriedly ended the topic.
"I'm talking too much, I'm sorry."
Mu Liancheng heard the grievances in her tone, his heart softened, and he was ashamed.
"It's because I can't live with you, as a brother, I should have taken care of you, but now I always let you worry about me, my second brother is really not competent enough."
"Second brother......" Mu Ziyan was already quite sad, and when he said this, his nose suddenly became sour.
"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely remember your words this time, recuperate well, and take care of my body." Mu Liancheng patted the back of her hand and comforted her softly.
Mu Ziyan nodded and said, "You have to talk about it, you don't have any jokes!" ”
"Of course."
The two were talking and laughing, the condensed atmosphere gradually dissipated, Mu Liancheng turned his head to look out the window, and was suddenly surprised: "It's so late?" I'm going to be late, why didn't you wake me up earlier? ”
As he spoke, he was about to get out of bed.
Mu Ziyan hurriedly grabbed him, "You are still sick, the imperial doctor said, you must stay in bed for two days to recuperate, you are not allowed to go anywhere, lie down quickly!" ”
"No, I can't go to the early dynasty." Since Mu Liancheng ascended the throne, he has never quit the court, and today he is not willing to make an exception, regardless of Mu Ziyan's obstruction, he got out of bed in a daze, and was ready to call someone in to serve and dress.
Mu Ziyan was anxious and angry, frowned and said, "Didn't Fang Cai just promise to have a good rest?" How can you forget it in the blink of an eye? I can't say it......"
Seeing her puffing out, Mu Liancheng didn't want her to continue to worry, so he had to change his mind and lie back obediently.
"If you don't go to the court today, you'll just lie here all the time, right?"
"That's right." Mu Ziyan smiled happily at this time.
Immediately, he instructed the palace people to bring the medicine and food, until the overseer Mu Liancheng drank the medicine and obediently lay down to rest, then he left with confidence.
When I walked not far from the entrance of the dormitory, I happened to meet the hurried tour.
"See the Five Princesses!"
"You're in such a hurry, is something happening?" Mu Ziyan asked curiously.
Dayou hesitated for a moment and replied: "My subordinates heard that the emperor's dragon body was out of harmony, and they were worried, so they left in a hurry, the princess must have just finished visiting the emperor, right?" I don't know what the emperor's situation is now? ”
Mu Ziyan saw that he had something to hide, but whether it was a major national event or a matter in the palace, it was inconvenient for her to ask, so she didn't plan to expose it, and said with a smile: "It's already much better, but the imperial doctor said that the emperor needs to have a good rest in the past two days, and it is not appropriate to work hard, just report something to him to know, try not to let him ask too much." ”
"The princess is right, and the subordinates remember." Dayou nodded in response, bowed and went to the dormitory.
"That's right!"
When he was about to enter the door, Mu Ziyan suddenly came back, stopped him and asked, "Do you have any news about Miss Fengsan?" ”
Dayou paused and shook his head: "No." ”
"The emperor didn't let you track down her whereabouts?" Mu Ziyan didn't believe it, with her understanding of her second brother, even if she was really heartbroken by Sister Feng, as long as her heart was not dead, she would definitely follow her traces secretly, and it was impossible to ignore it.
"That's true, it's just that our people lost Miss Fengsan a year ago, and there has been no news of her since, and now where she is, I'm afraid no one knows."
Mu Ziyan originally blamed Feng for making her brother sad, but at this time, when she heard that she had lost her trace, she couldn't help but worry about it, one of her daughters was outside, in case she ran into a bad person, how could she deal with it?
To this day, she still can't figure out why Sister Feng wants to run away from home, isn't the capital good? Is the second brother bad?
"Are you still looking?"
Da You's head replied: "I'm looking for it, but I'm afraid it's unlikely to find it." ”
"Okay......"
Mu Ziyan nodded sadly, and said, "If you have news about the third girl, remember to inform me."
Dayou hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement.
On the side of the dormitory, although Mu Liancheng was lying on the bed, his mind did not stop thinking, he was still thinking about the affairs that he had not finished yesterday, and he was worried that there would be a new disaster in the north today, so he couldn't sleep at all after lying for a long time.
Just as he was about to get up, Li Cocoon's announcement came from outside: "Your Majesty, Commander You is asking to see you outside the palace!" ”
After Mu Liancheng ascended the throne, he transferred the previous commander of the forbidden army to the barracks, and made Dayou the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and he was fully responsible for guarding the palace, while Eryou was still running around, responsible for collecting intelligence and carrying out secret tasks.
"Let him in!"
When Dayou walked into the inner hall, Mu Liancheng had already put on his coat and sat down at the table.
"Your Majesty, your subordinates have something important to report."
"What?"
For more than a year, the commander of Dayou has been very competent, and basically nothing has gone wrong, so he has always been calm and calm, and it is really rare to have such a dignified expression as today, Mu Liancheng immediately guessed that something unusual must have happened.
"Last night, someone broke into the palace." When he spoke, Dayou's heart was full of shame, and his head also lowered.
"Oh?" Mu Liancheng was not much shocked, only raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "Did you catch it?" Do you know who it is? ”
Dayou replied: "Fortunately, he found and arrested him in time, and successfully caught the person, but he did not want to confess his identity, only claimed that he came to steal something, which was searched by the guards from him, please take a look!" ”
With that, he handed over a crystal clear white jade pendant.
Mu Liancheng put down the teacup, elegantly stretched out his hand, and took the jade pendant over to take a closer look.
This jade pendant didn't look special at first glance, and it wasn't completely precious, but when Mu Liancheng turned over to look at it, his eyes shook violently when his eyes touched the patterns and scratches on it, and his face suddenly changed.
I saw two plum blossoms engraved on the white jade, and there was a very small word "crazy" in the lower right corner.
The jade pendant must be phoenix frivolous, but why is it on a thief?
"Where is that man? Bring me now! ”
Dayou didn't know why, and remembered the advice of the fifth princess at the gate of the palace, so he persuaded him: "Your Majesty, your health is not well, so you should not ......."
"Didn't you hear me when I said to bring people in?"
At this moment, Mu Liancheng only wanted to find out the whereabouts of Feng Qingfang, and he couldn't wait to see that person immediately and ask clearly, so naturally he didn't want to delay for a moment, and he was so anxious that he couldn't care about anything.
Da You felt that something was wrong, and he didn't dare to delay any longer, so he hurriedly turned around and went.
Mu Liancheng held the cold jade pendant, his heart was full of mixed feelings, and his hands were still trembling uncontrollably.
Rather than wanting to know Feng Qingyan's whereabouts, he wanted to make sure if she was okay at this time.
After about a stick of incense, Dayou returned to the dormitory with the thief and threw the man on the ground and pressed him.
It was a young man in his twenties, short and sturdy, with two mustaches on his face and swarthy eyes, and he looked at Mu Liancheng, who was sitting at the top, as he resisted.
Da You said angrily: "To be honest, you must not be presumptuous in front of the emperor, otherwise you will break your legs!" ”
The mustache was not frightened by him, and shouted vigorously: "You let me go first, you will be screwed to death!" ”
"You ......"
At this time, Mu Liancheng waved his hand at Dayou, signaling him to loosen the binding.
Dayou knew that although this person's light skills were good, his martial arts were mediocre, and he had himself next to him, if he dared to be unfavorable to the emperor, he could stop it in time, so he let go.
After her hands were free, the mustache shook her arms, her mouth purred, and Niuniu stretched her neck and prepared to stand up.
Unexpectedly, when he got up, the poor knee socket was kicked hard, and he knelt back with a "bang".
A warning voice came from the overhead: "If you don't want to break your leg, kneel honestly!" ”
The mustache was angry, and immediately scolded: "The emperor is still there, can't you say it?" ”
"Enough trouble?"
Mu Liancheng finally spoke, although his tone was calm, he couldn't hear joy and anger, and there was no expression on his face, but when he met the trace of coldness released from his deep eyes, his mustache instantly wilted.
"The emperor spares his life!"
"Begging for mercy so soon?" Mu Liancheng stared at him, and the corners of his mouth showed a hint of banter, "I stole everything to the palace, I thought you ate the bear's heart and leopard gall." ”
Hearing this, the mustache's little heart trembled.
"The villain is also forced by life, stealing something to sell, just to support his family, I originally wanted to try, but I didn't expect it to be a fluke into the palace."
Mu Liancheng asked with a smile: "Is it really just to steal things?" You're not trying to assassinate me? ”
"The villain doesn't dare, the villain doesn't dare to eat the bear's heart and leopard's gall!" The mustache hurriedly kowtowed to justify, he was really instigated, "I really just want to steal a few treasures, I don't dare to assassinate the emperor, please let the emperor know!" ”
With his courage, Mu Liancheng believed that he really didn't dare to do anything to assassinate, but just gave him a dismount first.
"Everyone who breaks into the palace of unknown origin will be put to death, even if you don't come to assassinate me, the fate will be the same."
The mustache turned pale with fright, and fell to the ground trembling.
"The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life......"
Mu Liancheng glanced at him and said, "It's okay to stay alive, but you must truthfully answer every question I ask you next, and if you lie half a word, I will immediately cut off your head!" ”
