As the sky darkened, the spring rain began to come as suddenly as last night, making a subtle and crisp sound as it washed over the towering walls of the palace and the vermilion lacquered green tiles.

The Tianque Hall was uncharacteristically lively, and many courtiers came to congratulate them with large and small gift boxes, so busy that the Chen family kept entertaining in front of and behind the house. However, the people who came to congratulate him returned as they were, without exception - the things were not delivered, and the people who wanted to stammer were not seen, in short, they ran empty.

In fact, these people should be secretly glad that they came to the Tianque Hall in vain at most, and those who went to the Longxin Hall to flatter were all scolded by Wen Mozheng and driven out of the door, compared to that side, Wen Mo's behavior of closing the door and only letting the Chen family refuse to accept all congratulatory gifts can be said to be merciful.

Of course, there are also some people who pretend to be smart and run on both sides, first eating the closed door soup of the Tianque Palace, and then being scolded in the Longxin Palace, there are not a few such people.

Wen Jingyuan showed extreme swiftness and decisiveness in discussing the marriage, only the day before there was a rumor that the two princes were offensive to the emperor in Yangcheng Hall for the matter of marriage, and the next day in the court, Wen Jingyuan made the details of the marriage public, and said that the envoys of the two countries would immediately start arranging the marriage after returning to China, as for what was the reaction of the two princes, and what was the reaction of the ministers of the previous dynasty and the concubines of the harem, Wen Jingyuan ignored it completely.

"After all, the emperor is planning to tear his face this time."

In the bedroom where the brazier is not extinguished all year round, Chu Ci sighed thoughtfully while opening the window to breathe.

"He doesn't allow me to marry and leave my worries, and I am willing to be lonely and widowed for the rest of my life, what does this arrangement mean? Refusing to marry someone else with a worrying temperament, is it trying to force her to death? What good is this for the emperor? Wen Moshu was half-lying on the couch, still emotional, and said that there was no shortage of violent coughs in the indignation, and the cough was so bad that the heart, liver and lungs were about to gush out.

Chu Ci shrugged, his overly plain expression made him look not so reliable, but fortunately, his speech was still coherent: "The emperor has been very jealous of His Royal Highness and the four princes since he succeeded to the throne, and at first he always wanted to find an opportunity to expel you from the imperial capital, and until His Royal Highness raised military salaries to fund the conquest, the emperor listened to the words of the prime minister and was afraid that His Royal Highness would go to a remote fiefdom to support the army and respect himself, so he tried his best to bind you to his side." Even so, the emperor is still not at ease, after all, Gyeonggi is a powerful minister, and His Royal Highness is quite popular, will there be a sudden day when His Royal Highness sets off a palace change to seize power and usurp the throne, which is enough to make the emperor sleep and eat. ”

"If he can be a good emperor, how can Mo Zheng and I rob him of the world? The border of Dayuan has not yet stabilized, he does not think about how to calm the people's hearts and conform to the will of the people, but speculates and doubts about the important ministers and princes, as the emperor, where does he put the people of Dayuan? After another cough, Wen Moshu's face was significantly paler. Gasping heavily, he took the pill and took it, and after a while, Wen Moshu sighed: "These are all nonsense, in short, it's not something I can control." For now, I just hope to come up with a solution, at least not to marry someone else, to break my promise to break my sorrow, and to break her heart. ”

"I originally planned to discuss with His Royal Highness the purpose of the emperor's doing, but now it seems that His Highness is not in the mood for this." Chu Ci laughed lightly, his eyes flashed, "His Royal Highness objected to the marriage in front of the envoys of the five countries and argued with the emperor, during this period, the four princes did not say a word, this is the root of His Highness's heart disease, if the four princes do not open their mouths to refuse the marriage, His Royal Highness has nothing to do, right?" ”

Asked by Chu Ci to the sore spot, Wen Moshu's expression stiffened slightly: "Mo Zheng is obedient to Boss Jun's words, even if Boss Jun didn't know in advance that he was assigned to marry Mo Zheng and had to worry about separation, as long as he said before, 'No matter how the emperor arranges, you have to accept it', then Mo Zheng will definitely not refuse." ”

"To His Highness, brotherhood is more valuable than power, but His Highness probably doesn't think so. Compared with His Royal Highness and the people His Royal Highness likes, the four princes seem to care more about the impact of different choices on themselves, once it is clear which one is more beneficial to protect themselves, under the guidance of Boss Jun, the four princes will not hesitate to make a choice. ”

Wen Moshu frowned: "You also said it, that's because of Boss Jun's guidance." ”

"But it was the choice made by the four princes themselves." Chu Ci was a few plain words, and Wen Mo was speechless.

Wen Mozheng cherishes this brotherhood very much, but compared to his grand ambition and righteous cause, when it is necessary to give up this friendship, the upright and firm Four Princes of Dayuan will not hesitate to throw it aside.

"Your Highness, don't worry too much, isn't Miss Yan 'gone'? This marriage is missing, and the woman will definitely not be able to fulfill it. ”

Chu Ci's comfort was not strong, and Wen Moshu was still worried: "Being able to save Li Wei from the cage-like deep palace is only something that can be done by the prince, although it is good news compared to marriage, it is not much better." After a pause, Wen Moshu sighed with bitterness: "Chu Ci, I don't know if I'm too careful, I always feel that I'm getting farther and farther away from worry, if I don't hurry up, maybe it's ......."

"I said earlier that His Royal Highness and Miss Yan are not suitable, His Highness's gentleness will make her dependent, this dependence is completely different from His Highness's feelings for Miss Yan, instead of forcibly seeking the future, it is better to let go as soon as possible, whether it is for Miss Yan or His Highness, it is not a bad thing."

"Some things can't be put away if you want to, and if you don't get into the situation, it's hard to understand the depths of love."

In the face of Wen Moshu's almost paranoid insistence, Chu Ci laughed and put it away, and a complex color flashed in his pale but bright eyes: "So far, Your Highness still thinks about how to stir up the marriage between Huang and Princess Caining, I heard that the princess is arrogant and arrogant, and has a stubborn personality, if you make a comparison, I would rather Your Highness marry Miss Yan!" ”

The rapid change in Chu Ci's tone and attitude always caught Wen Moshu off guard, and he paused for a moment, and then sighed helplessly: "If I have a way, will I still use closed doors to call myself sick and no one will see me?" ”

"Well, that's right, His Highness is not the best at tricks that will attract resentment." Chu Ci nodded, and suddenly a serious look appeared, "Since His Highness can't ask for a divorce here, why don't you let the Fox Hill Country take the initiative?" The other party is unwilling to get married, and the emperor is poor in donkey skills. ”

Wen Moshu thought for a moment: "Do you have a way to get the other party to take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage?" ”

"It's not a solution, just tell the truth—not to make His Highness confess that he only wants to marry Miss Yan, but another more important issue." Chu Ci shook his hand and shook the Chinese medicine bottle, and a few crisp bangs showed that there were not many Chinese medicine pills left in the bottle. Holding his cheeks with one hand and staring at the medicine bottle, the first-class strategist who had never been preoccupied was slightly distracted: "Has Your Highness ever thought about disclosing your illness?" ”

Wen Mo shuddered, and his gentle but not relaxed expression froze suddenly.

※※※

In some messy but clean courtyards, a figure stood lonely, looking at the direction where the clouds were slowly moving, and it was also the direction of the imperial capital that I didn't know if I could return.

"Miss Yan, let's go inside, it's about to rain and wind." Zhong Yue, who had just come back from outside, couldn't bear it, called softly, lifted the large and small oiled paper bags in his hand and barely squeezed out a smile, "Miss Yan, look, they are all the meals and pastries you like to eat, Chu Yang ran all the way back, and it was still hot." ”

"Zhong Yue, when will Wen Moqing come?"

He didn't look back at his worries, he still stood alone, with a hint of dazed expectation in his tone.

Zhong Yue was silent for a while, and squirmed his lips with difficulty: "Young master, he ...... I guess I haven't been able to get out for the last few days. Miss Yan disappeared from the harem, and the emperor would definitely guess that the young master had taken you away, and even if he was not punished, he would be interrogated for a long time. Chu Yang and I have been staring at it for the past two days, but there is no news from the palace, and we are also very anxious, worried about whether the young master is in trouble. ”

Without evidence, Wen Jingyuan didn't dare to move Wen Moqing casually, but he would never give up, I guess he was looking for an excuse to put Wen Moqing under house arrest, right? Wen Moqing should have expected that things would develop to this point that evening, so she asked her to go out of the palace to find Zhong Yue by herself, leaving no evidence as much as possible, but doing so was still inevitably suspected by Wen Jingyuan of being imprisoned, and it is unknown whether there will be a more severe punishment in the future.

Yan Li clenched his sleeves tightly, and his nails hurt his palms.

"Zhong Yue, call Chu Yang to come in together, I'm not used to eating alone." Speaking again, Yan Li's voice was a little hoarse, but there was a reluctant smile on his face, "There are some things I want to ask you after eating - don't worry, I won't ask you to take me back to the palace, Wen Moqing took such a big risk to send me out, and if I live up to his wishes, I will really not be human." ”

Zhong Yue was overjoyed, nodded vigorously again and again, and beckoned Chu Yang outside the courtyard to go back to the house together, and the two of them opened a bunch of oily paper bags with their hands and feet, and those snacks and dishes that they liked were all displayed in front of them, steaming hot and fragrant.

Wen Moqing is always very meticulous, what she likes, what she hates, he remembers it all.

"In addition to asking you to take me out of the imperial capital, what else did Wen Moqing confess?" Picked up a large piece of green vegetables and put it in the bowl, and finally couldn't swallow it, sighed and asked.

"The young master said let's stay here for a while, if there is still no news of him after ten days, we will find the young master of Bixiao, and everything will be arranged by the young master of Bixiao." After hesitating for a moment, Zhong Yue said cautiously, "The young master also said that no matter what happens, Miss Yan can't be allowed to return to the palace, and the young master will protect the second prince. ”

A month later, I don't know what kind of situation will evolve, will Wen Moqing be able to appear in front of her safe and sound?

Yan Liwu is very worried, whether it is Wen Moqing or Wen Moshu, they are hanging high in her heart at the moment, but she knows very well that if she is still sad and sad at this time and is entangled in trivial issues, her debt to Wen Moqing will only increase.

With a long sigh, he suddenly raised his head with a serious expression: "I want to talk to Boss Jun, can you arrange it?" ”

"Monarch, young monarch?" Zhong Yue subconsciously tilted his head and wanted to make eye contact with Chu Yang, but Chu Yang didn't have this intention at all, and stared straight at Yan Li without squinting. Zhong Yue was helpless, rubbing his fingers as if he was quite embarrassed: "This is not very good, right?" First, the young lord didn't say that he could contact the young lord, and secondly, ...... In case the young lord of the monarch comes out and is discovered, won't the whereabouts of the girl be exposed? ”

"You know Boss Jun's strength better than me, with his martial arts, who can follow him without being discovered? Wen Moqing didn't say that he could see Boss Jun, and he also didn't say that he couldn't see him, and only the news brought by Boss Jun was more reliable in the case of losing contact, wasn't it? ”

Yan Liwu's words made Zhong Yue unable to refute, taking into account Wen Moqing's order, it was still difficult to make a decision after thinking about it, and what finally made him make up his mind to agree to Yan Liwu's request was the last sentence that Yan Liwu bit his lip and said.

"Please, I don't want to sit back and wait for someone else to decide my fate, I ...... I just want to do something for Wen Moqing. ”
