Chapter 5: Meeting the Emperor 2
Mu Ziluo is also looking at the situation in the hall, the palace is splendid, the cloud top sandalwood is the beam, the crystal jade is the lamp, the pearl is the curtain, the inner pillars of these halls are supported by a number of red giant columns, each pillar is engraved with a whirling coiling, lifelike golden dragon, which is extraordinarily magnificent. The emperor on the dragon chair was about forty years old, and his status as a superior made him look very majestic.
The ministers saw her whispering.
"The courtier, Mu Ziluo, please give your Majesty a greeting, Your Majesty is blessed with Jin'an." Mu Ziluo leaned over to greet Emperor Mo, no fear, no fear, but revealed some awe, I believe this is also what Emperor Mo wants to see.
Emperor Mo had just recovered from the amazement that Mu Ziluo brought him, and at this moment, seeing Mu Ziluo so decently greeting, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Mu Ziluo, as if he wanted to see something out of Mu Ziluo.
A person who has been sleeping for fourteen years looks like a normal person when he meets him, and everyone will be curious.
"Get up." Mo Di waved his hand to let Mu Ziluo get up.
Mu Ziluo listened to the tone of Mo Di's words, as if she had known about her awakening, didn't he give the order to burn her before, it was really strange, if she knew that there was a Taoist who told Mo Di about her, she wouldn't have thought so, after all, she had just been born at that time.
"I heard General Pei say that you were burned to death, but you were resurrected unscathed, such a strange thing, I can't believe it for a while, since it has happened, I might as well let you explain what is going on." Mo Di said.
The ministers below were all a little uneasy when they heard what Emperor Mo said, plus Mu Ziluo's life experience, except that those generals were not so intense.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say." At this time, a minister walked out of the team and said to Emperor Mo with his hand.
"Quasi-play." Emperor Mo didn't even look at him, and touched the jade wrench in his hand.
"Your Majesty, this prime minister's daughter woke up after sleeping for 14 years, something was wrong, folk rumors regarded it as a demon, what the minister saw today, it is strange to see her sleeping for 14 years but like a normal woman, the minister asked His Majesty to burn this woman, so as not to affect the national fortune and safety of my country." The minister said to Emperor Mo sincerely.
Emperor Mo raised his eyes, then looked at the minister who spoke and said, "Do all the Aiqing people think like this, they all think that Mu Ziluo, the daughter of the prime minister, should be burned to death." ”
The ministers were bitter, who gave the order to burn her when Mu Ziluo didn't wake up before, but now they asked them back, has Your Majesty changed his attention now, the ministers speculated, who doesn't know that Emperor Mo and Prime Minister Mu Qingyuan have a deep friendship, Mu Ziluo is Mu Qingyuan's daughter, and it is normal for Emperor Mo to change his mind, but most ministers think that Mu Ziluo is a demon and should be burned to death.
"The minister thinks that demons can't live." Lin Yushi Lin Wen stood up and said.
"Reconsideration." The ministers who thought like this were all looking at each other, and after reaching an agreement, they all stood up and said to Emperor Mo.
Emperor Mo's hands were placed on both sides of the dragon chair and patted, hearing the thoughts of so many ministers, he also thought about it, and after thinking for a while, he refocused his gaze on Mu Ziluo, who had been standing quietly in the hall since he came in, except for greeting him to say goodbye, she just watched and listened quietly, as if she was nothing, as if it was not her who was talking about being burned to death.
In fact, how could she be indifferent, the person who was going to be burned was her, she was now thinking about how to explain her awakening to Emperor Mo, how to say it to make everyone believe what she said, so she showed an indifferent face. She can't just say that she existed as a soul before, then she would be a monster.
"Mu Ziluo, you don't have anything to say about this matter, you want to explain it to everyone." Emperor Mo lightly threw the question on Mu Ziluo like this, although his tone sounded like a faint one, but it made Mu Ziluo feel a coercion.
Hmph, Mu Ziluo sneered in her heart, it is estimated that Emperor Mo wants to know more about what happened to him than anyone else, but he asked it out with the hand of the minister, so as to show his imperial majesty.
The ministers in the hall were all looking forward to it, and Mu Ziluo felt that countless pairs of eyes were gathered on her, as if they wanted to see her through.
"Back to Your Majesty, the courtier's daughter has indeed woken up today, but the fact is not that she has never woken up in fourteen years as rumored by the outside world." Mu Ziluo was respectful, she had just thought of an explanation that Emperor Mo and the ministers could do.
"Oh, really?" When Emperor Mo heard him say this, he immediately became interested, and his eyes widened because of interest, but his body sitting on the dragon chair did not move.
If you don't look closely, no one will notice the subtle movements of Emperor Mo, but Mu Ziluo has found out. Very good, it seems that what she said has successfully attracted the attention of Mo Di, and then she can do what she wants.
"Back to the emperor, yes, the courtiers know that what they say is not enough to make people believe it, someone could have confirmed it, but it was just ....." As she spoke, Mu Ziluo paused deliberately, and looked at Emperor Mo with a complicated expression, as if what she was going to say next was related to him.
"What's just that, is there anything you can't say?" When Emperor Mo saw him looking at himself, could it be that this person who could be verified had something to do with him: "Who is the person you are talking about, you name it, no matter who it is, I will send someone to find it." ”
You have to find the best people, hearing him say this, Mu Ziluo's heart settled, after all, with so many ministers here, as a generation of emperors, he will not regret it.
"It's just that the person who can prove what the courtiers said has been arrested by the emperor, he is the father of the courtiers, Mu Qingyuan." Mu Ziluo didn't forget that her main purpose today was to rescue her father.
Although she has thought of all the countermeasures, she still needs her father's cooperation to complete it. Her father was her closest person, and some words were said by him, and he could not be more convincing than her.
When Emperor Mo saw her and said this, he remembered that Mu Ziluo's father, Mu Qingyuan, the prime minister of his Dongshu Kingdom, was indeed locked up by him, and he wanted to wait for Mu Ziluo to be burned to death before letting him go. Mu Qingyuan is a person who is particularly protective of his shortcomings, Mu Ziluo is rumored to be a demon, he has written more than once to let himself be the master for him, and he has suppressed his daughter's innocence. He thought that when Mu Ziluo was burned to death, he should be dead, no, as soon as he heard that Mu Ziluo woke up, he forgot Mu Qingyuan in prison, but how did Mu Ziluo know that Mu Qingyuan was in the palace, he looked at Mu Ziluo suspiciously.
The emperor glanced at the chamberlain beside him, and the chamberlain left the hall, presumably to convey the emperor's will.
"I said that whoever sends someone to bring him to meet you, and your father is the same." He wanted to see what kind of explanation the two fathers and daughters would give him, preferably a reasonable one. Seeing that the ministers below were all about to move, Emperor Mo added: "Everyone, Aiqing, wait a minute, the prime minister is here, and he will give everyone an explanation." ”
Mu Ziluo stood calmly to the side, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, without the slightest worry, calmly defeated all the doubts in Emperor Mo's heart, everything waited for Mu Qingyuan to see what he said.
Soon, several figures appeared at the door of the main hall, and I saw two chamberlains walking in with one person, Mu Ziluo immediately turned around, her eyes were full of warmth, this is her father, Mu Qingyuan.
