Chapter 179: Mu Xun ascends the throne

After the farce was dissolved, Helian Chen took the baby and returned to Tianzi No. 1 room with Chu Xiaoxiang.

"These two liars are too young, not like some old liars, but how do they feel weird?" As he spoke, Chu Xiaoxiang looked up at Helian Chen and asked, "Do you feel it?"

Helian Chen nodded.

Suddenly, a bell rang, Chu Xiaoxiang stood up in surprise, she walked to the window and looked down, just in time to see that the people below were looking into the distance, and that location was the palace.

"The old emperor of the Dust Country has died."

"The old emperor died?! That is the crown prince Muxun ascended the throne. "

Helian Chen nodded.

"……"

Suddenly, a burst of crying sounded from the baby, and Helian Chen and Chu Xiaoxiang hurriedly coaxed the baby, without experiencing anything else.

They stayed in the imperial city for a few days, and they had very little time to go out, basically staying in the inn, thanks to this baby, they couldn't do whatever they wanted, they were tied up and their feet were tied, and it was really troublesome.

"Little villain, what a little villain!"

Chu Xiaoxiang stretched out a hand to tease the baby on the bed, and while teasing, she wondered if she really shouldn't have picked her up?

"What, you regret it?" Helian Chen looked at Chu Xiaoxiang funny and said.

Chu Xiaoxiang shook his head and nodded again, in fact, he was very contradictory, he actually didn't hate this baby.

Seeing such a reaction, Helian Chen couldn't help but laugh.

"Let's go, let's take her out for a walk and take a look at the scenery by the way."

Chu Xiaoxiang nodded.

She bent down, picked up the baby with both hands, and carried her out of the inn with her.

I usually go outside the inn to take a look, but today, I feel that the vendors on the street are a little different.

"How do you feel that they are all dressed in white, and even the strips of cloth on the vendors' cars have been replaced with white?" Chu Xiaoxiang looked at the vendors who came out to sell the carts and said.

"You forgot, it's only been a few days since the old emperor of the Dust Country died, and the whole city has to wear filial piety clothes to guard filial piety."

"yes, I almost forgot about it."

"You've forgotten." Helian Chen shook his head and said.

Chu Xiaoxiang lowered her head a little dejectedly and said, "People say that being pregnant is stupid for three years, but I haven't been pregnant yet, so I'm starting to be stupid."

Helian Chen didn't speak, he looked at Chu Xiaoxiang quietly like this, smiling gently.

Suddenly, a strange wind hit, Helian Chen and Chu Xiaoxiang immediately became vigilant, this gust of wind came strangely, they had to guard against it.

Sure enough, a masked man in black ran towards them, and a long sword swung out, Chu Xiaoxiang immediately waved his hand to resist, grabbed a long bamboo stick and swung it out, but he didn't expect to be cut off by the long sword swung by the masked man.

The cut half of the root had no effect, but made Chu Xiaoxiang use it more easily.

Chu Xiaoxiang's kung fu is modern kung fu, in any ancient time, it is a mysterious kung fu with a strange number of martial arts, her kung fu made the masked man suffer without loss, and the masked man saw that the enemy could not dodge, and immediately dodged and ran away.

Erecting the bamboo stick, Chu Xiaoxiang stood up straight quietly, she looked around vigilantly, and found that there was no dangerous aura, she immediately turned around and walked towards Helian Chen, and said, "Why don't we go back to the inn?"

Helian Chen also thought it was time to go back, so he nodded.

"How could anyone attack us?"

"I don't know, although we can't talk about the first time we have arrived in the Dust Country, but the Imperial City is indeed the first time to come, and we don't go out often, so that group of people may have been sent by those people before."

"Whoever it is, we have to be careful."

With that, the two quickly returned to the inn, and Chu Xiaoxiang stood in front of the window cautiously to see if there were any suspicious characters?

"Did you find anything?"

Helian Chen walked up to Chu Xiaoxiang's side, cautiously poked his head out and asked.

Chu Xiaoxiang shook his head and said, "No."

"That's weird!"

Chu Xiaoxiang shook her head, she turned around and walked to the bed, teasing the baby mischievously.

Bang Bang Bang ~

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, Chu Xiaoxiang and Helianchen looked at each other, the two of them looked at the door together, Helianchen asked vigilantly, "Who?"

"Below is Gonggong Li sent by His Royal Highness the Prince, may I ask if Your Excellency is Princess Ji's concubine Qiyan's son?"

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

Mu Xun?!

Chu Xiaoxiang and Helian Chen both understood in their hearts who the other party was talking about 'His Royal Highness the Prince'? However, they came to this Fanghua Inn and did not tell him, how did he know?

"Now, is there anything you can do?"

"Hui Qiyan Gongzi, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Miscellaneous Family asked the Miscellaneous Family to inform you, three months later it will be the enthronement ceremony, there will be a banquet in the evening, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invites Princess Ji and Ji Horse to participate, and then there will be a carriage to pick up the two."

"Okay, I'll get it."

"Okay, then the miscellaneous family will retire."

As he spoke, there was no sound of Gonggong Li outside the door.

Helian Chen walked to the door suspiciously, stretched out his hand to open the door, poked his head out to look around, and then took a step back and closed the door.

He turned to look at Chu Xiaoxiang and shook his head gently.

Chu Xiaoxiang nodded, probably having guessed something in his heart.

When Gonggong Li came out of the inn, he went directly to the East Palace and went to the study to wait for Mu Xun's summons.

After a while, a young father-in-law came out and saluted Father-in-law Li and said, "Father-in-law Li, please come inside."

Gonggong Li nodded, he walked towards the house, and saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was sitting on a chair looking down at him, he immediately knelt down and saluted: "See His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose."

"Get up, how are things going? Will they agree to come? "

At this time, Mu Xun's tone trembled a little, as if he was afraid that Gong Li would say something to refuse, but he was afraid of hearing such words.

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, his subordinates have already told them, and they all agreed to come over to the banquet."

"That's great!"

Hearing such an answer, Mu Xun's heart breathed a sigh of relief.

"Stand down."

"Huh~"

Mu Xun stretched out his hand and waved, signaling that Gonggong Li could retreat.

After cleaning up the baby, Chu Xiaoxiang began to put the baby to sleep, and Helian Chen was in front of the window all the time, staring carefully at the window to see if there were any suspicious characters?

However, nothing was found.

Just then, there was another knock on the door.

"Who?"

"Two guest officers, the dish you just asked for is now being delivered to you."

Hearing that it was Xiao Er's voice, Helian Chen relaxed his vigilance, he walked to the door and stretched out his hand to pull the door open.

Xiao Er was holding a large tray with a variety of dishes and rice on it.

"Thank you!"

"Two guest officers, please use it slowly!"

With that, Xiao Er retreated.

Helian Chen was the first to sit down on the stool, he looked at the dishes on the table, stood up and walked to Chu Xiaoxiang's side, reached out and plucked one of her golden hairpins, and then inserted them into the dishes and rice respectively.

"You think they're going to poison them?" Chu Xiaoxiang asked suspiciously.

"I don't rule it out." Saying that, Helian Chen was very serious about testing whether those dishes were poisonous? Wipe it with a hand towel again.

After probing for a while, the golden hairpin in his hand was placed on the table, Helian Chen looked up at Chu Xiaoxiang and said, "You can eat with confidence, there is no problem."

"Really?"

Chu Xiaoxiang looked at those dishes suspiciously, there seemed to be no problem, could it be that there was some colorless and tasteless poison that couldn't be detected?

"Do you see something?" Helian Chen also looked at those meals with the same vigilance.

"I wonder if it's my delusion? I always felt that there was something wrong with these meals. "

"Oh, how do you say?"

"Aren't you a physician now? If I am not mistaken, the Qi family has been a doctor for generations, so there are any colorless and odorless poisons that we can't test. "

"Have you forgotten? I, like you, have come to this strange exorcism, and can understand very little, but, you speak of colorless and odorless poisons? "

"Yes, I will mix some poisons that cannot be detected by hairpins, how can others not make poisons?!"

"It's a little dangerous to hear you say that."

Helian Chen nodded.

"I feel an ominous premonition, let's go to the kitchen of the inn."

"And what about this little guy?"

Helian Chen stretched out his hand and pointed to the baby on the bed.

Chu Xiaoxiang didn't know what to do? She looked left and right, and suddenly Xiao Er came to her, she grabbed Xiao Er's hand and said, "Come, I'll give you a piece of silver, can you help us take care of the baby?"

Suddenly, Xiao Er, who was dragged in, was blindfolded, even in the face of such a big silver, Xiao Er still had no way to come back to his senses.

In the end, he was pushed by Chu Xiaoxiang.

Xiao Er came back to his senses, he turned his head to look at the baby lying on the bed, and said, "Two guest officers, don't worry, Xiao Er will definitely take good care of the baby."

Chu Xiaoxiang nodded, and she and Helian Chen came to the kitchen of Fanghua Inn.

"Which of you is the head of the kitchen?"

All the working cooks looked back at the kitchen master who was already lying on the ground and sleeping.

Chu Xiaoxiang followed everyone's gaze and saw an obese man sitting on the ground sleeping, snoring loudly and loudly.

Chu Xiaoxiang and He Lianchen looked at each other, Helian Chen took the lead in front of the principal, and gently pushed with his foot, but he was still asleep.

"Which of you is in charge of lunch in the No. 1 room of Tianzi?"

Chu Xiaoxiang looked at the principal sleeping soundly, and it seemed that he could only ask the others.

"It was prepared by Aunt You."

"What about her?"

The cook who spoke looked around, then shook her head at them and said, "I don't know where she went?" She's still there. "

Suddenly, a scream sounded in the backyard, Chu Xiaoxiang opened his eyes and glanced at Helian Chen, and the two immediately looked over to the source of the sound and saw an eldest lady lying in a pool of blood.

The blood in his chest kept pouring out, slowly staining the whole piece of his clothes red.

"Isn't this the lady we met that night?"

Chu Xiaoxiang stretched out his hand and pointed at the woman lying in a pool of blood, and said in surprise.

Helian Chen looked at the woman solemnly and didn't say a word.
