Can't be blind to death? That's an exaggeration, isn't it? This old man is really a drama spirit.

Feng Qingfang complained silently, even if he was unwilling, it was not good to refuse directly.

"I can do my best to assist your old man in managing Locke's Fort during this time here, but can I not be the owner of the castle?"

"Why, is being the castle master of Locke's Fort make you lose your identity, and you have to resign again and again?"

The old man's face changed again, and a layer of anger was shrouded in his face, "Oh, the old man understands, you are the daughter of the dignified national government, and you can't be involved with people like us, right?" ”

"I didn't mean that," Feng Qingfang hurriedly explained, "I think that I have only been in Luo's Mansion for a few days, and the people in Luojiabao will definitely not recognize me, and when the time comes, it may cause everyone's dissatisfaction and make Luojiabao people uneasy." ”

The old man snorted: "Since you are the person I have chosen, if anyone dares to disobey, I will repair him!" ”

"This ......"

Feng Qingfang wanted to find an excuse to refuse, but was immediately interrupted by the old man: "Okay, just one word, do you agree?" ”

Looking at this posture, if he doesn't agree, I'm afraid he won't be able to stay here any longer, Feng Qingfang thought about the consequences of being caught by Jiang Mingche if he left the Luo Mansion, so he could only nod his head stubbornly.

"I listen to you."

"That's right." The old man bowed his head in satisfaction, stroked his beard and smiled.

The next day, the news that Feng Qingfang was designated as the future castle owner spread, causing heated discussions among the entire Locke's Fort.

As Feng Qingfang worried, although she was the successor personally set by the old man, she had no foundation at Luojiabao, and everyone did not support her as the sudden successor, and even some people looked down on her, thinking that she was not only incompetent for the position of castle master, but also had no qualifications to enter Luojiabao, because she did not know martial arts and was incapable.

Especially those who have a good relationship with Wan Ye, after the news spread, they would roll their eyes every time they saw Feng Qingfang, deliberately said something ugly for her to hear, and blatantly expressed their dissatisfaction with her.

In this regard, Feng Qingyan himself did not care.

Since she had promised the old man to stay in charge of Luo's Fort, Feng Qingfang decided to do her best, although she did not plan to stay in Luo's Mansion for a long time, but for a day here, she should do her duty for this day, at least not to make the old man unhappy.

So, she obediently began to understand the sect of Luojiabao and learn how to take care of internal affairs, and as the most outstanding person in the entire Luojiabao, Wan Ye naturally took on the responsibility of teaching and training Feng Qingfang.

Although Wan Ye was reluctant, he couldn't disobey the old man's orders, so he could only follow Feng Qingyan every day and get along with her unhappily.

Feng Qingyan had a headache every time he saw Wan Ye's iceberg face, and after a few days of getting along, he really felt depressed.

"I said, Mr. Wan, didn't I just rob you of the position of the heir of Lockeburg? Why do you keep your face so tight? I didn't mean it, this was all arranged by my father-in-law, and I shirked it several times, really! ”

Wan Ye glanced at her coldly, was silent and did not speak, still looking like "you owe me money".

"Since you and I are so reluctant to see each other, why bother to embarrass ourselves here? Go about your own business, I don't have to worry about you, don't come to see me again in the future, I'll talk to the old man. ”

Feng Qingfang thought to himself, can't he hide if he can't be provoked, he won't be upset when he can't see it.

Unexpectedly, Wan Ye said: "The lord of the castle has ordered me to teach you to take care of all the affairs of the Luo Mansion within a month, and he will personally torture you after a month, if you fail to meet the requirements by then, not only will you be punished, but I will also be unlucky, so even if you don't want to stay with me anymore, you must endure this time." ”

Hearing this, Feng's head hurt even more.

"As long as you can bear it, I'm fine."

With the study and experience day after day, Feng Qingfang gradually mastered everything in Luojiabao, and finally took over the affairs of Wan Ye three months later, and her outstanding performance also made her slowly recognized by everyone in the door.

Winter goes to spring, summer ends with autumn solstice, and a year passes in the blink of an eye.

The capital, the Imperial Palace.

In the dead of night, the lights in the imperial study were still on, and the young emperor Mu Liancheng, who had been on the throne for more than a year, was still sitting at his desk to deal with government affairs.

For a year, he did this every day until late, sleeping only two or three hours, hardly stopping, as if he could never run out of energy.

The people around him were worried about his physical condition, but they didn't dare to persuade him, only Li Cocoon sometimes dared to say a few words, but the result was either scolded or ignored, even Mu Ziyan specially entered the palace to persuade him, but it was useless.

After a long time, Mu Liancheng's insomnia problem became more and more serious, and he was drugged by Mingjing that time, which injured his body, and his body was not as good as before, but Rao was so, he still refused to listen to persuasion, and did heavy work day and night.

Mu Ziyan and the others saw it in their eyes, but they could only be anxious in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, the night is dark, it's almost time, you better go back to the palace to rest first, and it's not too late to see the rest of the folds tomorrow." Li Cocoon cautiously persuaded.

Mu Liancheng put down the chapter, rubbed the acupuncture points between his eyebrows, opened his eyes and continued to do things, not listening to Li Cocoon's words at all.

"Make another pot of tea."

Seeing this, Li Cocoon didn't dare to say more, and retreated with a sigh.

Nearly an hour had passed.

By the time Mu Liancheng had finished reading all the folds on the case, he was already halfway through the hour, and he felt tired when he put down the pen, leaned back in his chair, raised his eyes to look at the window, and looked at the vast night outside in a daze.

After a while, the palace people were called in.

"Your Majesty, are you going to drive back to the palace?" Li Cocoon asked, hunched over.

Mu Liancheng was so tired that he didn't even bother to speak, so he only nodded and stood up with his hands on the table.

But maybe because he sat for too long and got up too fast, a wave of dizziness suddenly hit, Mu Liancheng held his head, couldn't help but stumble twice, and almost fell back down.

Li Cocoon hurriedly stepped forward to help: "Your Majesty? You okay? Do you want to pass on the medical officer? ”

"No need, go back to the palace." Mu Liancheng waved his hand, pushed away Li Cocoon, and prepared to go out.

Unexpectedly, after not taking two steps, he felt a more intense dizziness, and his eyes went black and he fell.

"Your Majesty! Emperor! ”

Li Cocoon screamed a few times in fright, hurriedly sent Mu Liancheng back to the dormitory, and asked someone to pass on the imperial doctor.

In order not to cause turmoil in the court, Li Cocoon suppressed the news that the emperor was so tired that he fainted, and basically no one knew about it except for a few palace people who took care of him in the palace.

However, in private, he sent someone out of the palace to inform one person - the fifth princess Mu Ziyan.

After Mu Ziyan got the news, she immediately entered the palace in a hurry.

When he arrived at the dormitory, Mu Liancheng was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly.

"Father-in-law Li, how is the emperor's situation? How can you faint all of a sudden? ”

"The imperial doctor said that it was overwork that caused fainting," Li Cocoon replied with a solemn face, "It's fine to rest for two days, and there is no big problem, but the old slave is worried that the emperor will not be able to bear the dragon body after all, so I want to ask you to persuade him." ”

Mu Ziyan sighed, frowned, and said: "If I can persuade him, the emperor will not be so tired that he faints today, and among the people in this world who can persuade him, one is no longer alive, and the other has gone to a distant place, alas......"

The one who is not alive is the first queen, this Li Cocoon knows, but who is the other one who went to a distant place?

"No matter what, the princess is the emperor's closest person, the emperor will still listen to what you say, and when he wakes up, you must persuade him again."

Mu Ziyan nodded helplessly and said, "I know, you all go down first, I'll go in and guard the emperor for a while." ”

The palace people in the dormitory all retreated, and suddenly became very quiet, Mu Ziyan slowly walked to the bedside, looking at his brother's haggard and pale face under the lamplight, his mood became heavier and heavier.

The next day, when Mu Liancheng woke up, it was already dawn.

"Second brother, are you awake? How does it feel? Mu Ziyan hurriedly went over to help him sit up.

Mu Liancheng was still a little confused, glanced at her in confusion, rubbed his groggy head and asked, "Why are you here?" What's wrong with me? ”

"Besides, you were so tired that you fainted last night, which scared everyone enough, and the palace people outside were in a panic all night, why don't you remember it at this time?"

"Passed out?" Mu Liancheng tried to think about it for a while, and then he remembered what happened before he fell into a coma, and couldn't help but complain in annoyance: "This body bone is so useless. ”

Mu Ziyan said helplessly: "If you don't know how to take care of yourself, even if you are beaten with iron, your body will collapse, not to mention that you were drugged a year ago and injured your body?" Second brother, I beg you, take care of yourself for a while, don't work day and night anymore, okay? If you're going to have a good one, I'll ......."

Speaking of this, his eyes turned red and he choked.

Mu Liancheng knew that she was worried about herself, and felt a little guilty in her heart, so she hurriedly comforted: "Don't think nonsense, I just slept for a while, it's okay, I'll pay attention to it in the future, don't worry." ”

"Do you really?" Mu Ziyan obviously didn't believe his words, "Every time I advise you to rest more, you will nod your head and agree, but the truth is that you didn't listen to my words at all, and then you are still the same, since you ascended the throne a year ago, you have changed." ”

"Is there one? Why don't I feel like I've changed? Mu Liancheng shook his head amusedly, his temper is a little changeable, but he is still the same person in his bones, and in front of his sister, he has always had a very gentle temperament, how can he change?

Mu Ziyan said: "Yes, you have become more indifferent than before, and even more cruel to yourself, even if you were busy in the past, you still knew how to take care of yourself, but now...... You seem to care about your physical condition at all, as if you don't have any expectations for the future, and it doesn't matter if you live or die. ”
