Chapter 157

Wanyue was still looking at the door a few times just now, the courtyard was quiet, and there was almost no sound of people walking, this hour, it is estimated that the emperor should be staying elsewhere.

"Why don't you rest first? Looking at this time, maybe ......" Wan Yue's words were not finished, looking at the dark sky outside, and muttering secretly in his heart, the emperor may not come tonight.

Mu Yan also looked over with the gaze of the evening moon, except for the occasional rustling of leaves outside, and then the slight footsteps of the palace people patrolling the night, there was no other sound.

Mu Yan got up, and just about to blow out the light and prepare to rest, there was a sound of footsteps at the door, and then the wooden door was opened, and Yin Chenglu's bright yellow clothes came into view.

Seeing that Yin Chenglu's face was obviously tired, Mu Yan stepped forward and helped Yin Chenglu take off the bright yellow shirt embroidered with a python dragon.

"Why is the emperor so tired when he looks at it today?" Mu Yan's voice was very gentle, as if it was the sound of quietly flowing water, gently crossing Yin Chenglu's heart.

Stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead, Yin Chenglu's face was full of tiredness, and he sighed softly and said: "There are more things today, I dealt with some just now, and I haven't finished it yet, so when I wait until tomorrow, let's continue to deal with it." ”

Yin Chenglu was really tired today, and not long after he touched the pillow, there was a gentle slight breathing sound, he should have fallen asleep.

Mu Yan didn't feel sleepy for a long time, there were too many questions in his heart, on such a night, his mind was surging, and it was even more difficult to fall asleep, and he turned sideways to look at the sleeping man next to him by the moonlight.

I don't know if I dreamed of something in my sleep, Yin Chenglu's brows were tightly wrinkled, and there was no trace of loosening, Mu Yanshen stretched out his hand and gently stroked Yin Chenglu's forehead, wanting to help him smooth the wrinkled small mountain peaks a little.

The long eyelashes were fanning slightly, and the bright moonlight seemed to be spinning its own dancing posture on it, Yin Chenglu's thin mouth was tightly pursed, and Mu Yan's hand was swiped on his face, but there was no reaction.

Looking at Yin Chenglu's sleeping face, Mu Yan stared at his face in a daze, thinking of Yin Yufu's words urging him in the past few days, and there were always some doubts entangled in his heart.

With his fingertips entwined around Yin Chenglu's black hair, Mu Yan never understood what could make Yin Yufu hate his brother like this, and even urged himself to be ruthless to his brother.

Mu Yan half-propped his body, lying on his side and looking at Yin Chenglu, when he thought about it for a long time, he forgot what time it was, and he didn't know when he fell asleep, and when he woke up, his side was already empty.

Reaching out and touching it a few times, the empty position next to him, except for the remaining folds, has no temperature, and it should have been walking for a while.

"Master, do you want to get up? The emperor ordered it, saying that he would not disturb your rest, so he did not let the slaves call you. Wanyue had been lightly packing up the things in the house, and when she saw Mu Yan waking up leisurely on the bed, she stepped forward and said.

Everything is almost cleaned up, and the sky outside is also very bright, after Mu Yan finished breakfast, he sat on the soft couch for a while, and ordered to the evening moon beside him: "Go and clean up some things, and then the queen mother will be there." ”

No matter what Empress Dowager Liu's attitude towards herself was, Mu Yan still had the same attitude and respect as before, took the snacks prepared in the kitchen, took Wanyue with her, and walked towards the Longevity Palace together.

The Queen Mother is still the same as before, sitting in front of the Buddha statue, turning the Buddha beads devoutly, concentrating on worshipping the Buddha, and still chanting words in her mouth, saying some strange things, probably prayers and other words.

Mu Yan stayed by the side of the Empress Dowager Liu, and let that Wanyue put down the food box, which was to let her out, and there were only two people left in the whole house, Empress Dowager Liu and Mu Yan, the incense was burning vigorously, the smoke was filling, and the house was full of unique fragrance.

The Buddha beads in Empress Dowager Liu's hand were still turning, her eyes were slightly closed, and she was chanting words in her mouth, ignoring Mu Yan, who had been by her side.

Mu Yan stood on one side, not speaking or disturbing Empress Dowager Liu's devotion to the Buddha, her eyes staring at the ground under her feet, not knowing what she was thinking.

After a long time, Empress Dowager Liu put down the Buddha beads in her hand, opened her eyes, and looked at Mu Yan's position, with no expression on her face, looking a little serious.

Mu Yan slowly saluted the Empress Dowager Liu, and opened the food box under his feet, which contained all kinds of pastries, and the smell of fragrant glutinous food came out and reached his nose.

"The Queen Mother, do you want to taste this is a new pastry." Mu Yan was just about to put out the pastries in the food box and was about to bring them to the Empress Dowager Liu, when the Empress Dowager Liu's brows were deeply locked, and she reached out and pushed open the food box, almost spilling those pastries on the ground.

Mu Yan didn't care, he held the plate with his hand, the pastry shook a few times in it, and finally it didn't fall out, put the pastry back into the food box, found a puzi, and sat next to the Empress Dowager Liu.

"You missed all the good times before, and you didn't continue to find good opportunities during this time?" Empress Dowager Liu was a little oppressed, her eyes stared at Mu Yan a little sharply, forcing Mu Yan to look directly into her eyes.

Mu Yan eased the fluctuating thoughts in his heart, looked directly at Empress Dowager Liu, and said, "I haven't found a suitable opportunity yet, just wait for a while." ”

"Wait a little longer!" Empress Dowager Liu's voice rose slightly, staring at Mu Yan, the momentum on her body seemed to be even more oppressive, and she sneered a few times and said, "Then when do you want to wait, or do you not look for a chance to start at all." ”

The same urging as Yin Yufu made Mu Yan have to wonder, they are people who have a blood relationship with Yin Chenglu, why do they hate him so much and want him to die so much?

Gathering his thoughts, Mu Yan's head lowered slightly, and his tone did not fluctuate much, "I will definitely start when I have a good opportunity, but now is not a good time." ”

"Then what do you think is a good time, the longer the time, the more troublesome it is, some things, it's better to start earlier." Empress Dowager Liu didn't believe Mu Yan's words of 'timing', snorted coldly from her nose, and said.

Mu Yan looked at Empress Dowager Liu's delicate face, this woman has been groping and crawling in the harem for so many years, but who has really seen her methods, and her hidden true appearance, is Yin Chenglu really her biological son?

Mu Yan couldn't help but suspect that tiger poison does not eat children, but now why does Empress Dowager Liu want him to die, what is there in between, to get to such a point, the more Mu Yan thinks about it, the more cold his heart becomes, and he feels an indescribable feeling.

"Yes, remember the teachings of the Queen Mother." Mu Yan didn't argue with Empress Dowager Liu about anything, but nodded and responded to Empress Dowager Liu's words.

Empress Dowager Liu looked at Mu Yan's obedient appearance, and felt an inexplicable irritability in her heart, picked up the Buddha beads on the ground, held them tightly in her hands, turned them a few times, and lost the peace of mind just now, and then let go of her hand again, and no longer rotated the Buddha beads.

Mu Yan didn't dare to continue thinking about it, the more he thought about it, the more he panicked about the unknown in his heart, maybe there was something he didn't know, and things were far from being as simple as they seemed.

Standing beside the Empress Dowager Liu, I don't know how long she has been standing, her legs are slightly numb, but the Empress Dowager Liu obviously doesn't want to continue talking to Mu Yan, she closes her eyes, and continues to mutter the scriptures that others don't understand.

After standing for a moment, Mu Yan softly saluted to the Empress Dowager Liu, pushed open the door and walked out.

There were too many things during this time, Mu Yan's heart was full of things, and after going to the side of the Empress Dowager Liu, he went around to the back and looked at the rouge who still didn't have any sober consciousness.

Rouge still looked like Mu Yan had seen it for the first time, leaning softly against the wall, even breathing became very difficult, and his body twitched a few times from time to time, enduring unbearable pain for ordinary people.

Mu Yan let out a long sigh, how long has it been, everything is right and wrong, reached out and touched Rouge's face, cold, without the slightest temperature, Mu Yan squatted on Rouge's side, a little unbearable to look at Rouge's appearance.

"How did it become like this, how long have I been gone, and who is ruthless." Mu Yanming knew that Rouge would not answer him, but he still muttered to himself on the side.

Now except for the eldest princess, who is the most suspicious, Mu Yan can't think of anyone else who has such a deep hatred for Rouge, so that he can toss a living person like this.

"Hey." With a long sigh, Mu Yan looked at the Rouge now almost like a dead man, and his heart was also uncomfortable, anyone who saw such a Rouge would not feel any better in his heart.

Walking out of the Longevity Palace, Mu Yan wandered around these empty gardens aimlessly, and didn't know where he wanted to go, he stopped and stopped, and finally he didn't know where to stop, looking at the location not far away in a daze.

It's been a few days now, and I don't know what Su Rui's situation is now, and I don't know if the injuries on my body have healed, Mu Yan frowned slightly, but he was very worried in his heart.

Su Rui on that side didn't have much bumps except for Su Qi who was assassinated on the way, and he stopped and stopped along the way, and he arrived in Jiangnan safely, and Su Rui was also arranged to recuperate in Jiangnan's courtyard.

Su Rui's master Ye Hong really has real skills, after his conditioning during this time, Su Rui's recovery is quite good, for most of the past half a month, Xiao Heng and Yi Min have also stayed in Jiangnan Courtyard to take care of Su Rui, and several people are usually companions, and their days are not very boring.

"Would you like to try it together?" Yi Min and Xiao Heng were sitting in the courtyard, each of them holding a plate in their hands, and they couldn't see what it was, and when they turned around and saw Su Rui who came out for a walk, Yi Min waved his hand, stuffed his mouth full of things, and said.

"What's that?" Su Rui was far away, and he couldn't see what was on the plate clearly, so he stepped forward and looked at the inexplicable things on the plate of the two people, a little curious.

"You taste it and you know." Xiao Heng's eating is relatively elegant, and compared to the easy and bold way of eating, the temperament of the noble son is revealed.

Su Rui saw that the two of them got along very well, and couldn't help but feel happy for the two of them, originally thought that the previous incident would be a little different, and they couldn't even speak, who knew that although the two of them said that they knew this thing in their hearts, they didn't say it, and the fight was also harmonious.
