Mu Xiuyuan understood what he meant, but he didn't have much contact with Xuanmo, he wouldn't care about a military general with a low official rank before the Wen family's accident, after the Wen family's accident, Xuanmo's official position was raised, but he stayed at the border all the year round, and he returned to Beijing very few times, because he didn't know Xuanmo at all.

But the second highness in front of him, the general of the auxiliary country, Mo Xuanhui, personally chose the lord for himself, saying that he could not be trusted.

In that case, it is prudent to check it out.

It's just that he was able to climb so high in just a few years, and he also won the emperor's trust, and his scheming methods are obviously not comparable to ordinary people, so it shouldn't be too easy to investigate.

He is from a peasant family, so it should be easier to check his past first.

Mu Xiuyuan made a decision, planning to go back and arrange for someone to investigate this matter as soon as possible.

Xuan Mo never thought that his vest was about to be ripped off, he sent Changshu back to Changle Palace, and then he was driven out mercilessly.

A ruthless woman who turns her face!

Standing outside Changle Palace, Xuan Mo felt unprecedentedly depressed.

Or should he go buy some gifts for her?

But what is there that he has that Changshu doesn't?

This Xuanmo felt that he needed to think about it, the princess, the golden branches and jade leaves, the glory and wealth are inexhaustible, what can I give her to please her?

This gift should be given in a chic way, and it must be something that can be obtained by his identity, which is not common on weekdays. Xuan Mo thought about it, and decided to find a few people to advise him before making a decision.

Changshu led Mu Xiuqi into the palace, and told Jiang Ran, who had just come back, to talk to Emperor Xuan, and then he didn't care about this matter anymore.

In Changle Palace, Mu Xiuqi looked at Changshu's resignation of the subordinates around him in confusion, and said suspiciously: "Sister Huan? ”

Changshu glanced at Nan Su and motioned for her to go out too.

Mu Xiuqi didn't understand it even more: "What is this for?" ”

Changshu looked at him quietly, smiled slightly, and asked, "Xiuqi, do you have anything you particularly want to do?" ”

Although he didn't know why Changshu asked this, Mu Xiuqi thought about it, shook his head and said, "No." ”

Changshu held her chin and looked at him: "Then you can think about it, if not, I have something I want you to do here." ”

"What's the matter?" Mu Xiuqi looked at her with such a cautious appearance: "If there is anything you want me to help with, Sister Huan, you can say it directly, I will help you if I can." ”

Changshu's eyebrows raised slightly: "Are you sure?" ”

"I'm sure." The young man was a little apprehensive by her abnormal attitude, and he was a little curious: "What the hell is going on, Sister Huan, you said!" ”

Changshu didn't speak, just got up and walked to the bookshelf by the wall, and turned the base of a potted plant on the bookshelf around.

The sound of clicking sounded, Mu Xiuqi turned his head to look over, and saw that several screens standing in the room had moved from the center to both sides, and the soft couch where it should have been placed had disappeared, revealing a pitch-black entrance.

Mu Xiuqi: "......"

He turned his head abruptly and looked at Changshu in disbelief.

Sister Huan is a princess, what do you want to do in such a secret passage in her bedroom?

Changshu Quan didn't notice his gaze, just raised his eyebrows: "I have something I want to give to you, after the accident of the crown prince and royal brother, no one can continue to protect me, I have to learn to protect myself, Xiuqi, there are not many people I can trust." ”

Mu Xiuqi looked at her with complicated eyes, and the young man, who had always been heartless, suddenly realized that he might now be facing the most important choice in his life.

If these things were not important, she would not be so cautious, but if they were important......

Once the decision is made, the relationship between the Regent and her will never be as simple as friendship.

Mu Xiuqi looked at the swarthy entrance of the cave and said with a wry smile: "Sister Huan, can I ask, is this important thing you are talking about, is it a thing or a person?" ”

Changshu said lightly: "Do you know the dark department? ”

Mu Xiuqi said: "A top-secret force in the hands of the crown prince and the imperial brother, I once heard the royal brother mention it. ”

"What I'm going to hand over to you is the Shadows."

Changshu said: "The former commander of the dark department died three years ago in order to protect the imperial brother, and the deputy commander was sent by me to another place, and I want you to take charge of the dark department. ”

Mu Xiuqi did not speak.

Changshu said: "Xiu Qi, the existence of the regent palace is the selfishness of the emperor's grandfather, he wants to protect the life of the regent's uncle, so he will be crowned the regent and let him take charge of the army, no matter who ascends the throne will be afraid of him for three points, but this kind of self-respect is not a long-term solution after all, my father can't tolerate you, and the future emperor will not allow the regent palace to threaten the existence of the imperial power, and unless you meet an emperor who is broad-minded and can tolerate you, otherwise, you have no way out." ”

Mu Xiuqi understands this truth, so the regent palace has been low-key all these years, and even now he looks like he is not able to do anything, obviously the civil and martial arts are excellent, but he has neither the imperial examination nor the army.

The second son of the dignified regent palace is still a white body.

Mu Xiuqi looked at her: "Can I boldly ask, among the princes, is Sister Huan the second emperor brother, or which other prince?" ”

Changshu smiled: "I belong to myself." ”

Mu Xiuqi took a deep breath.

Well, needless to say, he got it all.

His sister Huan wanted that position herself.

But such a result is obviously the best for the Regent Palace, as long as Changshu ascends the throne, with their current relationship, they can choose to continue to be loyal to her, or they can choose to hand over the military title and become an ordinary royal family, as long as they don't think about rebellion, they won't lose their lives.

As for the woman's ascension to the throne as emperor......

Mu Xiuqi said that as long as it was his sister Huan, it didn't matter.

No wonder Xie Yu will listen to his sister Huan, but I am afraid that there are many people in the court who are his sister Huan's people.

Thinking like this, Mu Xiuqi made a decision, he stared at the dark passage and walked over there.

With such a move, his choice is self-evident.

Changshu stopped him at this time: "Xiuqi." ”

Mu Xiuqi stopped.

"Do you know what it means for you to make such a choice?"

Changshu frowned, in the end, it was his spoiled younger brother, Changshu could understand what he was doing: "If you don't want to, I won't force you, you have to understand that if you make this choice today, you have no room for regret." ”

"Those who are in the shadows cannot leave the shadows unless they die, even if they are you."

Mu Xiuqi said: "Sister Huan, I want the Regent Mansion not to have to walk on thin ice so much in the future, and I want my father and brother to have more choices." ”

"I don't want us to be a thorn in the side of the emperor, and one accidentally ends up in the consequence."

It's a deal, and it's his request.

Changshu nodded: "Yes." ”

The boy smiled: "That's fine." ”
