The day after Duanyang, Mu Qingyan went out of the north of the city.

Advancing to the helmsman of the beggar gang, Shen Jun only wore a single coat in the martial arts training ground in the backyard and practiced light skills hard, his face was ruddy, sweat dripped down from time to time on his forehead, and his clothes were already soaked and pasted on his back.

Mu Qingyan's heart hurt slightly, he was only a five-year-old child, but he had to inherit all kinds of glory as soon as he was born, and because of this honor, he needed to work harder than others. Even if he is reluctant, he has to be ruthless, and he only hopes that his diligence and hard work when he was young can make his future life smooth and free.

Rolling crooked leaning against the shade of the tree to sleep, as if he heard Mu Qingyan's sigh, turned his head to the place where she was hiding and looked at it, he still didn't give up twisting his fat body and walked lazily over, and after making sure that there was no one, he hugged the tree and took a nap again.

Mu Qingyan scolded secretly in his heart, even the pets raised by this little thing are so vigilant, will they have it in the future? He looked at the little figure again, and Shi spread out the flying immortal outside the sky and left

When she fell into Bishui Manor, it was lunchtime, and Zuo Ling saw her coming in from outside the door before she could even put down the bowl and pounced.

"Mother, I miss you so much!" He had rice in his mouth and a grain of rice on his face.

Mu Qingyan gently hugged her and sat at the table, picked some of her favorite dishes and put them in her bowl, "Have you eaten obediently?" He looked at her lovingly, and re-combed the hair that was scattered on her cheeks before asking, "Are the uncles here?" ”

Zuo Ling obediently swallowed the dish that Mu Qingyan gave her before putting down the dishes and chopsticks, "Mother, Uncle Cang went to Wu County to track down where that person came from; Uncle Feng has not returned since Duanyang Day left, and this morning sent back a message that the person may have come for the emperor's wedding; Uncle Shadow plays chess with Uncle Qing in the study. ”

Mu Qingyan kept smiling and listening to her finish speaking, when other people's children are so old, they may only know how to attract the attention and pampering of adults, but their own children can explain one thing clearly and clearly, which is extremely valuable, which makes her proud and distressed.

pulled the handkerchief on the cuffs of the little girl's head and wiped her face, "Do you have practice?" ”

"Mother, I won't be compared to Shen Jun!" Zuo Ling hugged Mu Qingyan's neck, with a firm face.

The afterimage came in, "Master, it's time to eat!" Let the maid who followed her remove a few plates from the table and bring a few more, "If you haven't prepared it in a hurry, you will just use some." ”

Qing Jin personally took a bowl of rice and entered the door, "Young master, come and sit here, let your mother eat the rice." ”

Zuo Ling obediently slid down Mu Qingyan's thigh, picked up a book on the table and looked at it by himself, and didn't twist when he encountered a word he didn't know, and asked whoever was close.

Mu Qingyan ate and talked to the remnant Qingjin about the affairs of the Dragon Xin Pavilion, and made preparations in advance for the possible accident of the emperor's wedding.

"Master, if An Yuxuan comes here to make trouble, I'm afraid he will not be good for you." The remnant wrinkled his eyebrows worriedly.

Qing Jin glanced at him, "When did the master change to a vegetarian diet, people came to take people, and the Buddha came to catch the Buddha, I don't believe that he was detained in private, can he still give birth to wings and fly?" ”

Mu Qingyan nodded, "It's easy to take him down, but the hard thing is that after taking him, this vine is broken, and it's hard to know a lot of things you want to know." If he is just to find out for Chu Li, it is nothing, if he comes for me, there is a drama to watch. ”

"Now Sijiu has also grown a beard, and he can't pretend to be the master anymore." Qing Jin sighed in pity.

"You don't have to pretend to be me anymore, I was unskilled at that time, but now it's different, he just looks for me when he comes to me, I'm really afraid that he won't mess with me. Even if Chu Li has ambitions to seize power, he must have this ability to do so. The current Dongchu is different from the past hundred years, and it is stronger than ever. Mu Qingyan looked up at the two, "Arrange some good hands to enter the city, I'm afraid that there will be chaos in the palace." On that day, the city was full of magnates and envoys from other countries, and it was better to be safe. ”

"Master, the manpower has already been prepared. Sanjiu also came yesterday, and the beggars were in charge of the periphery, and their people were the most inconspicuous after all. The remnant replied respectfully.

Mu Qingyan nodded, still uneasy to ask, "Is there any change in Anxin Building?" This time An Yuxuan entered Beijing, and he must have used the most secret secret stake in his hand. ”

The afterimage instantly approached Mu Qingyan, "The master means that this time we are going to dig up those hidden stakes that we have not controlled?" ”

"It's not easy to talk about, although An Yuxuan is a little frivolous, but his scheming is not bad." The old god of Qingjin was there and rejected the afterimage, "Unless it's a fatal thing, he would rather expose it than use those hidden stakes that have been hidden for more than ten years." Everyone in the capital is watching, and it is not an overnight thing to hide all of a person's past and still use it in the most critical position. ”

"Shadow is right, I just want to see who he hides under our noses!" Mu Qingyan lowered her forehead and pinched her fingers, "Qingjin is right, even if there is nothing fatal, can't we create something fatal for him?" ”

Zuo Ling listened intently, and suddenly asked, "Mother, what is more important than his life?" ”

"Heartbreak! Only by punishing the heart can people make life worse than death. But Zuo Ling, you remember, anything may have a chance to start over, there is only one life, and if it's gone, it's gone! Mu Qingyan gently scraped Zuo Ling's nose, "Life is a battlefield, and only by strategizing can you win a thousand miles!" Don't believe in the so-called providence, it's man-made. ”

Zuo Ling nodded, "I wrote it down, thank you Pavilion Master for teaching!" ”

Mu Qingyan looked at the cold aura on her face, which was the same as that person, and she couldn't help but feel entangled in her heart.

"Master, does the emperor know about An Yuxuan's entry into Beijing?" Qing Jin slightly locked his eyebrows and asked cautiously.

Mu Qingyan shook his head, "I didn't even say anything about Brother Han, I just wanted to eliminate this matter invisibly." In addition, I am afraid that they will pay too much attention, and after all, they will not be able to let go of their hands and feet after all, An Yuxuan is extremely thoughtful, but if there is any trouble, he will definitely escape. ”

Out of Bishui Villa, Mu Qingyan hesitated to go to the Broken Sky Temple. In the end, he still listened to the voice in his heart, turned around and went all the way up to the top of the mountain.

It was already dusk when he fell into the Broken Sky Temple, Mu Qingyan lightly grabbed the sleeves of his robe, took a long breath, and kicked the door of Hui Yan's room open with a single kick.

"Old monk, I'm here!"

The room was quiet, Mu Qingyan took a few steps straight in and sat down on a futon, and looked at the Buddhist scriptures on the low table: everything in the three worlds is like coming, and it is not necessary to protect the initial heart, and all the samadharani changes, and the supernatural power changes are solemn. The immeasurable beings of the ten directions, and the same is true of the emptiness of the world, and the intention is immeasurable beyond the other, so that all Buddhas can be born......

Her heart suddenly sank uncomfortably, and she was stunned in the quiet room.

Brother Han is right, she has never had a heart to fight for Qin Yan. Maybe it's not just Qin Yan, but also Shen Luochen, she is only sad but has no persistence. The hand couldn't help but reach to the back of her neck, and the bright blood-patterned butterfly came from nothing, from the initial flickering and then looming, from the blue of the smart water droplets to the profundity of the blood, every change came at the cost of her life.

She knew that she was inferior to others, and she had never experienced the pain of heart-piercing tarsus. But love is instinct, and the boiling water in the bottom of my heart naturally cannot be ignored.

At first, she really cared about Shen Luochen, and fell in love with the kind of Qingjun in him who was not involved in the world and did not stain the world, and gave all her love, and she also missed and loved.

Qin Yan was an accident to her, his strength, his doting, and all his protective heart were obvious. She can see and feel clearly, he is an arrogant person, but he is as tender as water for her.

Shen Luochen's temperament is bland, stubborn and polite, and would rather suffer in a thousand ways than live up to the Old Testament. Mu Qingyan admired his chaste character and refused to transgress lightly. But Qin Yan's uninhibited temperament is still cold with three points of coldness. I had never seen him pretend to anyone, but the days with her were boiling with a deep frustration.

saved Qin Yan with innocence, she was willing.

She knew that if she were someone else, she would rather kill him with her own hands than commit herself to him. I don't know when the heart that was originally tied to Shen Luochen's body quietly shifted to the cold and arrogant him, but he ......

can make Wei Wanwan spend seven years of green onions, and they will not be separated overnight, but this is unacceptable to Mu Qingyan.

Maybe it's time to make it clear, she was only born to protect the world of Dongchu in this life, and was born to keep promises for the three generations of the Mu family, and she has never lived in the ordinary, so she should not forget her original intention.

As the day deepened, Mu Qingyan got up, opened the door, and went out over the wall again.

On the second watch, she turned around and landed outside the gate of the Chengqian Palace.

As if entering his own house, he pushed the door and entered, "Brother Jue? ”

Stung and touched his nose helplessly and retreated into the shadows, this woman's light skills are very good, and she is not under the Wing King.

Chu Jue put down the frowning fold in his hand, and his heart was happy, "You came at the right time, and I'm afraid that I will be suffocated by this fold later." ”

The corners of Mu Qingyan's eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles, "I want to see what makes you so hard to decide." Before the words fell, the person had already sat down beside Chu Jue, "Oh? Nanzhao sent his concubine to Beijing? Haha, Brother Jue's sudden blessing is gratifying, haha......"

Chu Jue flicked a finger at her head, "Naughty!" He took out a copy from a stack of folds next to him and handed it to her, "Look at this again." ”

Mu Qingyan took it and opened it, and recited softly, "The Black Water Clan is flourishing, and the alliance with the Baishan Clan wants to take back the ruling power of Nanzhao. The princess of the Qiangyi clan killed her father and seized power, and was found out and imprisoned by the illegitimate son of the national teacher and the king of Nanzhao. ”

"How?" Chu Jue asked her softly.

Mu Qingyan put together and looked at him: "Brother Jue, I discovered the civil strife of the Qiangyi clan as early as five years ago, that Ruan Qi is by no means a fuel-efficient lamp, and his ruthlessness seems to be innately deep into the bones. ”

"Well, Ruan Qi is suspicious by nature and extremely worried, which is exactly the same as King Nanzhao." Chu Jue got up and poured a cup of tea and handed it to Mu Qingyan, extremely natural and casual, as if he had been used to doing it thousands of times.

Mu Qingyan didn't twist it, took it and drank half a cup, "I got the news that as early as three months ago, the Baishan clan had been succeeded by Bai Lang, and Hei Ji of the Heishui clan coveted his father's patriarch position, and privately joined forces with Bai Lang to take back the Nanzhao regime. ”

Chu Jue frowned, "I'm afraid the rebellion of Nanzhao is inevitable, Wuling can only make ends meet for five years, and it can't be abundant, and the war will inevitably affect the pond fish." He walked around the ground a few times with his hands behind his back, "Yan'er, is there a good plan?" ”

"Nope." Mu Qingyan leaned on the chair, half-closed his eyes, and whispered a little carelessly, "An Yuxuan entered Beijing, and Brother Jue had already prepared." ”

Chu Jue strode to the couch and sat down beside her, "When?" ”

"On the day of Duanyang, Yi Rong only confirmed it today, and I have already sent someone to investigate." Mu Qingyan sat up straight, covered her mouth with her little hand and yawned slightly, "I'm going back to sleep, sleepy." ”

Chu Jue smiled, "Shocked! ”

"Slow! I'll go back by myself, don't come every time you are afraid that others will not know about the general uprising, my reputation is already very bad, please spare me. Mu Qingyan staggered to his feet, and went out of the hall past the sting.

"Smoke ......"

Chu Jue didn't say a word, Mu Qing waved his hand without replying, turned around, and went silently.

I didn't come back to my senses for a long time, and the figure that was gradually moving away turned out to be Mu Qingyan?

On the ninth day of the first month of May, the red silk overwhelmingly submerged all the streets and roads in the capital.

Ugly Shizheng, according to the time given by Qin Tianjian, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu personally led the team to welcome relatives and carried the imperial phoenix sedan chair out of the palace gate, and the team stretched for several miles, all in double numbers, and went to the Taifu Mansion in the southwest of Zhuque Street.

At the end of the day, the drums and the sedan chair turned, and the road was paved with red silk everywhere it passed. Go east out of the Taifu Mansion and turn north to Suzaku West Street, and enter from the main entrance of the Imperial Palace on Xuanwu North Street.

Sixteen people carried Feng Yu entered the main hall under the attention of everyone.

At the right time, Chu Jue was waiting outside the hall in a bright red wedding dress. Feng Yu landed on the red carpet, and Mrs. Dongfang came out of the crowd, personally picked out the sedan curtain, and pulled out half of the red silk in the bride's hand and handed it to Chu Jue.

Chu Jue's eyes were red, and his eye sockets were extremely deep.

The Queen Mother personally invited Mrs. Dongfang to be the emperor's wedding bride in unicorn villa, and Mrs. Dongfang thanked the emperor and the queen mother for their grace and agreed with tears.

Now that Jue'er is finally going to marry a wife, she is extremely happy in her heart. But seeing that Jue'er's expression was not like joy today, she was deeply worried. Having brought Chu Jue up since he was a child, he knew his reluctance at this time. With tears in his eyes, he whispered with a smile, "Holy Lord, don't miss the auspicious time." ”

Chu Jue raised his eyes and looked at several people outside the hall, but he didn't see the one he wanted to see the most. He clenched his teeth, and his heart jumped suddenly a few times before taking the red silk in Mrs. Dongfang's hand, and looked at Mrs. Dongfang comfortingly.

The newcomer holding the end of the red silk hesitated into the main hall, and completed the worship ceremony under the guidance of the Ministry of Rites, and he was so calm that he had no joy at all.

With a "send into the cave room" after the ceremony, the palace maids accompanied the newlyweds through the Chenghua Gate into the harem.

There was a chorus of joy in the hall, and the queen mother gave her a seat, and asked the old lady of the East to sit down next to her and accept the congratulations of the hundred officials together.

The palace was full of joy and laughter.
