Duanmujun's expression became more stern.

Before, when Mu Yan was still far away in Huaizhou, someone was beating him up and wanted to send a concubine, but now he has just come back, and someone is sending a beauty. This kind of fat that everyone covets is really not a good match!

"......" Although Mu Yan can't read minds, he can also see that what Duanmu Jun is thinking about at the moment will definitely not be something that makes him happy.

Mu Yan looked at Duanmu Fei again, his eyes were pitiful, like a little milk dog that was about to be abandoned.

Duanmu pursed his lips and smiled, revealing a pair of shallow pear vortices at the corners of his mouth.

Duanmu Xian glanced at Duanmu Jun and Mu Yan back and forth, with an inexplicable joy in his heart, and he picked up the teacup and drank the tea with great interest. Good tea!

He sighed in his heart: There is a way, one thing descends one thing!

It's just that who can "descend" from the other person?

Duanmu Xian accidentally thought of Cen Yin again, and suddenly felt that the tea was not fragrant again.

Mu Yan had a rare relationship with Duanmu Xian, and he also thought of Cen Yin: he still had to find his eldest brother to help him intercede with his sister.

That's right, he'll find the big brother later!

Mu Yan made up his mind in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Sister, I will immediately beat out the people, and the Taijun Mansion has also been sealed, and I will take the title today!" ”

He looked at Duanmu Jun and Duanmu Fei with burning eyes, looking loyal.

Hearing this, Duanmujun's eyes softened slightly, and he bowed slightly: "It's about the same." "Okay, let's not dissolve the marriage contract first, and then we'll see.

Duanmu Xian was shocked, put down the teacup he had just picked up, put it aside casually, looked at Mu Yan and asked, "You said that the king of Taijun was taken away?" When was this? ”

Mu Yan replied as a matter of course: "What happened just now." ”

"......" The corners of Duanmu Xian's eyes twitched, and he only felt that it was difficult to speak.

From his point of view as a member of the Yue family, it is a good thing that Mu Yan, a stinky boy, refuses to accept a beauty sent by outsiders, and retaliates.

However, he took away a county king so casually, it is conceivable that the clan is afraid that it will be a quarrel.

Mu Yan, this kid is really unreasonable!

However, if he were a person who played his cards according to reason, he would not have taken Nanhuai down without hiding from the court!

Mu Yan's temperament is really a double-edged knife!

Duanmu Xian suddenly felt very tired, he couldn't finish worrying about his own family's affairs, why was there another person he needed to worry about!

"Ah Yan," Duanmuxian took a deep breath and asked hopelessly, "Have you found evidence that King Taijun killed Princess Xianjun?" ”

Normally, ordinary people will act after finding evidence, but I have to say that Mu Yan is indeed not an "ordinary person".

Moreover, even if Duanmuxian has not consulted the file of this case, he can imagine that after three years, it will be difficult to find conclusive evidence, and besides, the king of Taijun can completely push it to his subordinates, just like when the third prince blamed the death of Concubine Jiang Ning to the palace people and picked himself clean.

"Nope." Mu Yan replied without hesitation, concisely and to the point.

Rao is Duanmu Xian had already guessed it, and he was also shocked by Mu Yan's arrogant attitude.

“……”

Duanmu Xian took two breaths in a row, wanting to take a sip of tea to calm down, but he was still in no mood to drink tea after all.

"You ......" Duanmu Xian couldn't bear it anymore, and reprimanded sternly, "You just say that if you take the title so casually, you won't be afraid of the clan rebellion?" ”

"You have taken Huaizhou, and you have immortal merits, but your foundation in the court is so shallow, there is not much help at all, and making enemies at this time will only make it more difficult for you to go in the future. You...... Why do you bother? ”

Duanmu Xian only felt a faint pain in his forehead, and these small ones really worried him more than one another.

Looking at Duanmu Xian's worried look, Mu Yan was afraid that he would be angry with himself, so he hurriedly reassured: "Grandfather, don't worry." When the East Factory finishes copying the house, the custody can find the charge of seizing the title! ”

What's with what?!

In an instant, Duanmu Xian really had the urge to flip the table. How can anyone do such a thing, how can he rest assured!

Mu Yan smiled and looked at Duanmu Fei again, the tail behind him wagging wildly, looking like he was begging for praise.

Duanmu Fei also understood, and praised very cooperatively: "It's beautiful!" ”

Dongchang will definitely be able to make a move!

Anyway, it's good to use fair and honest reasons to achieve the goal, and the different paths will lead to the same end.

"Not bad." Duanmu is also the head of the jaw.

If something happens to the king of Taijun, he will send beauties to those in power, and I am afraid that he has not done this kind of thing in the past. Mu Yan's treatment method this time is just right to kill chickens and monkeys to set an example, and naturally no one will dare to send him any beauties in the future

"Sister." Mu Yan looked at Duanmu Jun expectantly.

Duanmujun was relieved with the principle of clear rewards and punishments: "Extra points." ”

These two words made Mu Yan even happier, and his heart was full of joy. He didn't run in vain!

Mu Yan's face bloomed with joy, and Duanmu Fei also followed him to be silly, inserting a piece of watermelon with a toothpick and handing it to him as a reward.

Mu Yan ate the sweet and juicy watermelon with great taste.

"......" Duanmuxian glanced at Duanmujun, Duanmufei and Mu Yan weakly, and rubbed his eyebrows again, always feeling more tired.

He sighed and asked again, "Ah Yan, then how do you explain it to the clan?" ”

Mu Yan swallowed the watermelon in his mouth, and while glaring at Duanmu and asking her to reward him again, he was distracted by Duanmu Xian, and asked rhetorically, "Why do you want to explain?" ”

Mu Yan looked at Duanmu Xian suspiciously, and raised his right eyebrow.

Duanmu pursed his lips and smiled, and then inserted a piece of watermelon with a toothpick and handed it to him, Mu Yan actually wanted her to send it to his mouth, but Duanmu Xian and Duanmu Jun were still here, so they could only do this first.

Next time.

He said to himself in his heart, phoenix eyes brightened.

"......" Duanmu Xian didn't know what to say anymore.

Whoever has any objections, Mu Yan will go to borrow the East Factory, this is clearly a sign of the faint king!

Otherwise, he would still say goodbye to his hometown and take his little granddaughter back to his hometown together, just don't want this family business.

Duanmu Xian thought almost as soon as he broke the jar.

In contrast, Duanmujun was more satisfied with Mu Yan, and echoed solemnly: "Ah Yan, what you said is that you should let Dongchang go to these people's houses more!" ”

These people have nothing to do, and they always want to send beauties to Mu Yan.

According to her, the bad habit of sending beauties should be suppressed and put an end to!

Duanmujun didn't notice that Duanmuxian looked at her with strange eyes, and Duanmuxian often felt that his eldest granddaughter had some "misunderstanding" about Dongchang.

Seeing that Duanmujun's face had improved, Mu Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart: It seems that this time I won't bother my eldest brother to help.

He asked earnestly, "Sister, can I take Zhen Zhen out to play next time I take a break?" ”

"......" Duanmu Xian's mouth twitched. This stinky boy really has to take inches, he dares to hook up with his little granddaughter in front of him, and there is no self in his eyes!

Duanmu Xian felt that staying with Mu Yan for a long time would really be short-lived, so he simply made the appearance of serving tea to send guests, however, Mu Yan cheekily didn't see it.

Anyway, he was discovered, so he just stayed open for a while.

At this time, the maid came over with tea and snacks.

Duanmu Fei thought that Mu Yan went to see Dali Temple for an autopsy in the morning, so he asked: "Ah Yan, have you had lunch?" ”

Mu Yandeng's eyes lit up and he shook his head. Zhen Zhen still hurts him!

"Pothos, you let the small kitchen go to the next bowl of shredded chicken noodles with shiitake mushrooms." Duanmu Fei commanded.

The green pothos took the order, and Duanmufei personally handed Mu Yan a plate of golden silk jujube mud cake: "You eat some pastries first to cushion your stomach." ”

Mu Yan ate it beautifully, like a big dog that had been fed by his owner, obedient and simple.

However, in Duanmuxian's eyes, this is clearly a big-tailed wolf that can't leave.

Duanmu Xian glared at Mu Yan "viciously".

Bi Cicada on the side looked at Mu Yan, then at Duanmu Xian, silently lowered his eyes, and couldn't help laughing.

She always felt that whenever the old lady met the future fourth aunt, she would be like a cat with its tail stepped on...... Ahem, the old lady is the first assistant, and the word fried hair doesn't seem to apply.

Seeing that Duanmu Fei handed Mu Yan, a stinky boy, another lychee that she had just peeled, Duanmu Xian's heart became even more sour.

"Ahem," he cleared his throat, deliberately attracting Duanmu Fei's attention, and asked with a smile, "Fourth girl, how did you go to Xu's house yesterday?" ”

Duanmufei started from her arrival in Xu's mansion, about a game of chess she played with Xu Mingzhen, about the meeting gift given to her by Mrs. Xu, and about a "Dry Plum Picture" given to her by the second elder......

Although Duanmujun had already heard it once yesterday, even if she heard it ten or a hundred times more about her sister, she was still so fond of it.

Mu Yan added in an emphatic tone on the side: "My grandfather and grandmother like Zhen Zhen very much! ”

Is that! Duanmujun's chin was slightly raised, his lips hooked and he smiled, and said firmly: "Zhenzhen is so good, who wouldn't like it!" ”

Regarding this point, Duanmu Xian, Duanmu Jun and Mu Yan all agreed.

The scene was very harmonious for a while.

However, when the curtain of the door was raised and Pothos came in with a bowl of hot shredded chicken noodles, Duanmu Xian's face froze again when he thought of who this bowl of noodles was for.

The shredded chicken noodles were delivered to Mu Yan's hand, and the fragrance spread with the heat.

Duanmu Fei followed and ordered: "Pothos, you go and get some vinegar." "Ah Yan likes to add some vinegar to the noodle soup.

When Mu Yan heard this, his heart was very proper.

In fact, he is not picky, and when he is outside, the conditions are limited, and he is not allowed to be picky.

However, Duanmu Fei remembered his preferences, and for him, it made him happier than anything else.

Mu Yan laughed happily, and the tail behind him frantically flicked back and forth.

This overly bright smile was in Duanmu Xian's eyes, no matter how it looked like an eyesore, Duanmu Xian said angrily: "Eat it while it's hot!" "Finish eating and roll early!

As if he didn't understand Duanmuxian's unfinished words, Mu Yan added vinegar to the noodles and ate them deliciously.

Duanmu Fei watched Mu Yan snoring and eating a bowl of noodles in three or two clicks, and said secretly, and said in his heart: Isn't he afraid of being hot?

Seeing that Mu Yan finished eating the noodles and continued to eat the fruit cheekily, Duanmu Xian couldn't bear it anymore, and turned the hint into an explicit statement: "Ah Yan, aren't you Xiu Mu today?" ”

This sentence is almost equivalent to an eviction order.

Mu Yan was reluctant to leave, but he was afraid that he would offend Duanmu Xian, which would not be conducive to him secretly coming to Zhen Zhen next time.

He slowly drank two more sips of tea before he stood up slowly, and said reluctantly: "Zhenzhen, I still have something to do, so I'll go first." ”

Duanmu waved goodbye to him.

After Mu Yan said goodbye to Duanmu Xian and Duanmu Jun again, he habitually stretched out his hand to support the window sill, and flew out of the window as he came, and then naturally climbed the tree and climbed over the wall, and ran away like a ghost in three or two clicks, as if he had never been here.

Flower thieves who steal incense and jade! Duanmu Xian looked at the empty window in a daze, the word came to his mind, and the corners of his mouth twitched again.

Seeing that Duanmuxian didn't move with the teacup, Duanmufei stood up and said filial piety: "Grandfather, can I make you a new cup of tea?" ”

Duanmu Xian's eyes lit up, remembering that he had just recently obtained a good jar of 100-year-old Pu'er, which happened to be the same as his little granddaughter.

However, before Duanmu Xian's words could be spoken, Wisteria came in with a curtain and curtsied, "Old lady, Prince Yu asks to see you." ”

Duanmu Xian could only swallow back the words in his mouth, and he felt that he was really working hard, and it was rare to have a day off, how could he not even have a good cup of tea with his two granddaughters, first Mu Yan, and now Prince Yu.

Complaining in his heart, Duanmuxian still stood up and said, "Invite people to Zhaohui Hall." ”

Wisteria bent his knees to receive the order, and went out of the house to pass the word to the porter who came to pass the ceremony.

Duanmuxian walked towards the Zhaohui Hall in the front yard without hurrying.

When he arrived at the Chaohui Hall, Prince Yu was already in the hall, and he didn't even sit down, walking back and forth in the hall with his hands in his hands, describing the anxiety that could not be concealed.

He didn't have the heart to greet him at all, so he made his intentions clear with a single sword: "Lord Duanmu, do you know that the king of Taijun has been robbed?" ”

Duanmu Xian also knew that sooner or later someone would come to him for this matter, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

He nodded with a heavy face: "Just knew." ”

Prince Yu and Duanmu Xian have been friends for many years, and they don't spare the circle when they speak, and asked in a deep voice: "Lord Duanmu, do you know what Mu Yan's intentions are?" ”

Saying that, Prince Yu's expression showed a hint of hesitation, gritted his teeth, and said: "Lord Duanmu, this king will tell you directly, what this king is worried about is whether Mu Yan wants to settle the old ...... with the clan."

Even if Prince Yu didn't say any more, Duanmuxian also understood what he meant, after the palace was enthroned, the clans, including Prince Yu, quickly fell to Jinshang in order to protect themselves, and regarded Emperor Chongming as a puppet emperor.

In the final analysis, this matter has always been a problem for these clan princes.

Prince Yu took two steps closer to Duanmuxian irritably, and said worriedly: "Could the Liang family's matter just an excuse for Mu Yan?" Dali Temple didn't find anything after a month of investigation, so Mu Yan simply found a reason to seize the title of King of Taijun! ”

"After all, after all, ......"

Prince Yu did not say any more, the king of Taijun has always been a person who knows the times, when he was in the clan, he was the first person to surrender to the present, Anding Hou and Jian Anbo were the first to kneel down and call the ministers, in May, Anding Marquis and Jian Anbo entered the Yangxin Palace and never came out, life and death are unknown, and the name is called to serve the disease today.

And now, even the king of Taijun has been deprived of his title, which makes people really have to suspect that Mu Yan took the king of Taijun to open the knife on purpose, and it can't help but think of "settling old accounts".

"......" Duanmuxian's mouth opened and closed, and he really didn't know where to start.

However, Duanmu Xian's hesitation looked in the eyes of Prince Yu, and he only felt that Duanmu Xian also had the same worries.

Prince Yu became even more irritable, walked back and forth again, and chattered endlessly: "Ah Yan, this child, this king used to see him just a little frivolous, but this time after he returned to Beijing from Huaizhou, this king felt that he couldn't see through this child...... It's like he's a different person! ”

Prince Yu almost said that Mu Yan was a deep person, but what Duanmu Xian thought of was Mu Yan's big grin, and that feeling of tiredness came up again.

Prince Yu talked for a long time, feeling a little dry mouth, and then he realized that Duanmu Xian had not spoken.

He cleared his throat, looked at Duanmu Xian with a solemn expression, and said, "Lord Duanmu, this king came to the mansion today to ask you for an idea. ”

Prince Yu came to Duanmu Xian on the one hand because Duanmu Xian was the first assistant, and on the other hand, of course, because of the relationship between the Duanmu family and Mu Yan, after all, the fourth girl of the Duanmu family was Mu Yan's fiancée.

Moreover, the eldest princess of Anping attaches great importance to Duanmufei, and Mu Yan has always respected Anping.

Duanmu Xian's heart moved, and he suddenly felt that this might be a good opportunity.

"Lord Wang, sit down and talk." Duanmuxian stretched out his hand to make an invitation, and the two sat down across a wishful small square table.

"I know why." Duanmu Xian said bluntly.

Prince Yu's eyes lit up, he looked at Duanmu Xian eagerly, and urged him to continue speaking with his eyes.

Duanmu Xian didn't sell Guan Zi either, and explained: "This matter is not as complicated as the prince thought, Ah ...... Ahem, the regent took the king of Taijun to knife, but it was because the king of Taijun ran to the princess's mansion last night and sent him two thin horses. ”

The reason why Duanmuxian was kind enough to say this to Prince Yu was also because he was worried that these clans would have to think about "settling old accounts" and cause additional troubles.

Although he doesn't like Mu Yan, a stinky boy, he is no longer likable, and he is also his grandson-in-law, so he always has to protect one or two as an elder.

"Skinny horse?!" Prince Yu looked at Duanmu Xian dumbfounded and blurted out, almost screwing himself.

What is this?

There was an eerie silence in the room.

Duanmuxian looked at Prince Yu's shocked expression, and felt much more comfortable in his heart: in comparison, he was much calmer than Prince Yu when he heard about it!

Duanmuxian is well versed in the way of the point, and knows that if he says too much, others will not believe it, so it is better to leave some leeway for others.

He didn't say more, calmly picked up the teacup, drank the tea leisurely, and his demeanor revealed an unfathomable atmosphere.

"......" Prince Yu looked at Duanmu Xian and stopped talking, his pupils were bright and dark, and his thoughts began to diverge like crazy weeds.

The king of Taijun just sent two beauties to Mu Yan to show goodwill, even if Mu Yan didn't like it, he refused, why did he want to take the title of the prince of Taijun for this!

Wait a minute!

Prince Yu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, his eyes widened, and his gaze fell on Duanmu Xian's face.

Is it because of the fourth girl of Duanmu? Mu Yan was afraid that he would accept the beauty, which would make the four girls unhappy, and then offend Cen Yin?

It's possible!

No, nine times out of ten, Mu Yan has just taken the position of regent now, and his position is not stable, there will be more places for him to rely on Cen Yin in the future, at this time, Mu Yan will definitely not take the risk of offending Cen Yin, and he can only endure the humiliation.

King Taijun was also unlucky, and he happened to be used by Mu Yan to make an example of him!

It must be so.

The more Prince Yu thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, and his heart was finally settled a lot at this moment.

Duanmu Xian is a smart person, as soon as he saw Prince Yu's expression, he knew that the other party was probably biased, but he didn't plan to correct the other party, anyway, his goal was achieved.

"Lord Duanmu," Prince Yu eagerly leaned over to Duanmu Xian and asked, "Is this true?" How sure are you? ”

Duanmu Xian said calmly: "This is what the regent himself said, he just left. ”

Mu Yan has just been here? Prince Yu was startled again, and his eyes became darker. Could it be that Duanmu Xian just said that he knew that the king of Taijun was taken away was what Mu Yan personally told him?

Mu Yan rejected the beauty last night, and today he couldn't wait to come to Duanmu Mansion to tell him about it, that is to say, his guess was correct, the key to this was really the fourth girl from Duanmu!

What's more, Mu Yan may have guessed that someone would come to Duanmu Mansion to test Duanmu Xian's tone, and simply use Duanmu Xian's mouth to reveal his intentions to himself and other clans, intending to beat them?

Prince Yu's eyebrows were deeply locked, and he thought far away.

The room was quiet again, and Prince Yu's cup of tea was quietly placed there from beginning to end as if it had been forgotten, and no one paid attention to it.

Duanmu Xian thought about Prince Yu himself, tasted tea by himself, and sneered in his heart: Doesn't he know yet? It's not just the king of Taijun, these people are thinking about giving it to Mu Yansai one by one!

Of course, he wanted to nip their thoughts in the bud, so as not to let Mu Yan's kid be dazzled by the beauty and bully his little granddaughter.

Whether Prince Yu believes it or not, at this time, it is impossible for him to be, and said with a smile: "Where is it." Lord Duanmu kindly pointed out to this king, how could this king not know a piece of the adult's heart! ”

Besides, Prince Yu actually believed it.

If the king of Taijun really gave Mu Yan a thin horse, so many pairs of eyes in Jingzhong were staring, go to Zhongchen Street and ask, someone will definitely see it.

There's no need for Duanmu Xian to lie to himself about this kind of thing!

With such a cause and effect in his heart, Prince Yu suddenly realized.

He stood up eagerly, bowed his hand to Duanmu Xian cautiously, and said, "Thank you, Lord Duanmu, for your advice." The king still has something to do, so he will take his leave first. ”

Prince Yu didn't stay anymore and hurriedly left.

"The prince walks slowly." Duanmu Xian got up with a smile and sent him off, and asked the steward to send off the guests for him, but he sneered in his heart: Hmph, he wants to see if they dare to give Mu Yansai people casually!

Prince Yu came anxiously and returned satisfied.

In fact, he didn't just come for himself, but some of the princes of the clan jointly launched it to inquire about the news, and those princes were still waiting for news in Prince Yu's mansion.

At this moment, they are anxiously gathering in the main hall, or stretching their necks to look out of the hall, or walking back and forth anxiously, or talking to each other, or fidgeting, and they all feel like a year.

"He's back, he's back!"

The return of Prince Yu made the hall explode all at once, and seven or eight princes all surrounded Prince Yu in one go, and asked in a gossipy manner:

"How? Duanmu Xian, what did he say? ”

Mu Yan ...... Regent, what the hell does he want? ”

"He's not really going to ......"

“……”

Compared with the anxiety that these people couldn't hide, Prince Yu seemed so calm and calm, waved his hand, and said, "Why don't you let this king take a breath and drink tea." ”

A man in a green robe in his fifties with a general's belly hurriedly said: "Brother, you sit down and say, sit down and say!" ”

Someone even personally delivered a cup of tea to Prince Yu.

Prince Yu also enjoyed this feeling of attention, and in the burning eyes of everyone, he calmly removed the tea leaves floating on the tea soup with the tea lid, took two sips of tea, and then began to get down to business.

They are all their own people here, and Prince Yu doesn't hide it, so he told the news he heard from Duanmuxian one by one.

Only Prince Yu's voice was left in the hall, and the other princes were all listening attentively.

After Prince Yu finished speaking, everyone was dumbfounded.

“……”

“……”

“……”

After being silent for a while, someone hesitated and asked, "Prince Yu, is it really for this?" ”

The other princes looked at each other in disbelief, with different expressions, some frowned, some disagreed, and more people were suspicious, after all, no one thought that the Taijun Wangfu suffered only because the Taijun King gave Mu Yan a beauty, which sounds too ridiculous, right?

Congratulations Ah Yan! Finally a plus!
