Chu Yue was suddenly slightly stunned and looked at the tall man in front of him in a dark golden brocade robe, wearing a five-beam crown on his head that symbolized the identity of the prince, and the gems embedded on it shimmered with a little bit of light and dark luster under the moonlight.

Chu Yue was shocked when she saw this person actually appear in her mother's mourning hall, she really didn't expect Xiao Mu to come here, after all, he was a prince to give condolences to a little concubine who was killed in the Prime Minister's Mansion, this thing is really weird.

Xiao Mu nodded at Chu Yue, picked up the incense candle on the side and lit it, and suddenly half-knelt in front of Liu's coffin.

"The prince doesn't have to be like this!" Chu Yue was startled, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it, but he didn't want Xiao Mu to kneel down, lit the incense candle in his hand, and then burned the paper money before slowly standing up and looking at Chu Yue, who was stunned behind him.

In addition, the two girls who were kneeling, Red Note and Jade Wing, were also stunned.

From the perspective of etiquette, the Liu family definitely can't afford Xiao Mu's condescension, Xiao Mu's knees only kneel to heaven and earth and the emperor, as well as his own mother and concubine, where to kneel an irrelevant outsider.

Chu Yue's body, which was originally extremely tired, couldn't help but tremble slightly, she moved her lips, because she was too shocked, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

Xiao Mu's eagle-like eyes looked at Chu Yue in front of him fixedly, Chu Yue only felt a chill rising along his backbone, but he was a little at a loss.

Xiao Mu said slowly after a long time: "Miss Chu, please mourn and change!" ”

"Thank you...... Thank you for your concern! Chu Yue said busily, although he squeezed out a tired smile to Xiao Mu, but that smile looked too haggard to be unbearable.

Xiao Mu looked at Chu Yue and said lightly, "You come with me!" ”

Chu Yue paused, followed Xiao Mu's steps, walked out of the mourning hall, and walked out from the corner gate behind the courtyard, which was to the Yuxiu River.

Chu Yue didn't expect that the first outsider to come to mourn her mother was Xiao Mu, she looked at Xiao Mu standing under the willow tree by the river, his body was long, and the corners of his dark robe swayed in a dangerous arc against the evening breeze.

Xie Wan had to wait for him to speak first, after all, Xiao Mu was moody, if he didn't say anything, she wouldn't be able to ask, but after waiting for a long time, Xiao Mu didn't mean to speak.

Chu Yue is really tired to the extreme now, she just encountered such a big thing, she really doesn't have any strength to guess what Xiao Mu is thinking.

"Lord Wang," Chu Yue's voice was slightly hoarse, and she was still very tired, she looked at Xiao Mu's straight back and said: "Lord Wang, the little woman is really grateful to the prince for coming to see the little girl when the little girl is so down, this kindness to the little girl must be unforgettable." I just don't know what the prince needs to tell the little girl to do when he comes tonight? Although the prince spoke, the little woman would never give up! ”

"Heh," Xiao Mu chuckled lightly and slowly turned to look at Chu Yue and said, "You don't have to die, I just have one thing to do with you." ”

Chu Yue was stunned all of a sudden, she was almost at the lowest point in her life now, what else did she need help with?

"Lord Wang, please speak!" Xie Wan was worried.

Xiao Mu looked at Chu Yue and said, "The rebels in southern Xinjiang have begun to move north, and they have already taken three cities in a row!" ”

Chu Yue's heart trembled slightly, the war in southern Xinjiang was ignited more than a month ago, and now the rebels in southern Xinjiang are developing so rapidly, is it possible that the world is about to be chaotic?

She suddenly remembered the plans she had told Xiao Mu before to build terraces and the like, could it be that he was preparing to go out of the mountain this time?

Sure enough, Xiao Mu looked at her and said, "This king has already begged for this errand in front of his father, and he will put down the rebellion in southern Xinjiang within half a year, and the class teacher will return to the dynasty!" ”

Chu Yue's heart jumped slightly, and he looked at Xiao Mu and said, "What does the prince mean ......"

Xiao Mu looked at Chu Yue and said, "What this king means is that this time you can follow this king to leave the capital and go to the southern frontier!" ”

Chu Yue's face suddenly changed slightly, Xiao Mu was going to take her out of the capital, but now her younger brother was still on death row in Dali Temple, her mother died tragically, and she didn't want a result for everything, how could she follow Xiao Mu out of the capital?

Xiao Mu saw the hesitation on Chu Yue's face and said slowly: "Originally, this king can help you with your affairs, but the war in southern Xinjiang can't be delayed for a moment, plus what you said to this king before, this king thinks it's most appropriate to take you to southern Xinjiang." Now that you have been kicked out by the Chu family, it should not be easy to live in the capital, if you follow this king, this king will naturally protect you! ”

Chu Yue fixed his mind and raised his eyes to look at Xiao Mu and said: "Lord Wang, I'm sorry, my brother's life and death are uncertain now, my mother was killed, if I, Chu Yue, don't even take revenge, then my heart is too big!" Lord Wang, even if staying in the capital is a life of death, I will stay and fight them to the end! ”

Xiao Mu's brows frowned fiercely, and a touch of impatience flashed in his cold eyes, in fact, he had already met his father alone tonight, the fifth prince was the heart and soul of Queen Dugu, and naturally he would not be let out by the queen to work hard, and the sixth prince was good at civil governance but not good at martial arts, and there was no way to go to southern Xinjiang.

Besides, the father's body is not as good as day by day, and these princes in the capital know in their hearts that leaving the capital at this juncture is an act of looking for death.

After all, the situation in southern Xinjiang is really complicated, and there are many miasma and poisonous fog over there, and it is unknown whether it can escape with its whole body.

Now it just so happens that Xiao Mu is willing to take over this hot potato, why don't they do it, but before he leaves, he really can't rest assured that Chu Yue, this girl, before he gave her the Snow Mountain Silver Needle to make tea, has almost removed the poison of the Heart-devouring Gu in her body, even if she doesn't follow him, she won't die.

But now he couldn't help but just want to take her away, this obsession in his heart was tormenting him a little bit, Xiao Mu saw Chu Yue categorically reject his kindness this time, but his heart was a little uncomfortable.

His voice at this time looked at Chu Yue with a bit of humility that even he couldn't detect: "This king knows that you are worried, but you can rest assured that your younger brother this king will send someone to secretly protect him, at least he will not die in the prison of Dali Temple in the past few months." Your mother's revenge can't be avenged for a while, and when this king takes care of the affairs of southern Xinjiang, he will definitely help you deal with these things. Now the state affairs are important, your talent is very appreciated by this king, if you have made meritorious contributions in southern Xinjiang, this king will speak for you in front of your father and emperor, and give the position of county lord, fief is not impossible! ”

Xiao Mu's words were already a bit seductive, Chu Yue couldn't help but smile bitterly secretly, if he was really a machismo, everything was considered from his point of view, but he was also a straight man of steel.

She raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Mu with a wry smile and said: "Lord, the prince's status is noble, and his vision is higher than that of ordinary people like us, but the prince's family and country are not the little woman's home and country. The little woman has a low vision, and now she only thinks about being able to slash the enemy and get my brother out of death row. The little woman also pursued this idea, and hoped that the prince would be fulfilled! ”

Chu Yue slowly knelt in front of Xiao Mu, she has now lost the protection of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and her status in front of Xiao Mu is even more humble to the extreme, if Xiao Mu forcibly takes her out of the capital, she will not have the slightest room for resistance, and now she can only gamble on Xiao Mu's self-esteem.

He was such a proud man, and if she had rejected him like this, he would have given up the idea of taking her away.

Xiao Mu's eyes narrowed slowly, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "Chu Yue, don't use this method to deal with me, don't forget that you still have the Gu poison under this king in your body, if you don't follow this king, you will be in unbearable pain on the night of the full moon next year, can you bear this pain?" ”

The corners of Chu Yue's lips hooked up with an indifferent smile and said: "What pain is comparable to the pain of losing relatives, and I ask the prince to forgive the little woman for her stubbornness!" ”

For a while, the two of them confronted each other like this, Xiao Mu lowered his head and looked at the woman kneeling straight in front of him in front of him, looking at her beautiful eyes that were slightly red but contained the color of perseverance, Xiao Mu's eyes were a little deeper.

His masseter muscles were tense, as if he was restraining something, and suddenly leaned over and raised his hand to pinch Chu Yue's wrist and pulled her up from the ground.

His movements were very rude, and he used three points of strength, but it already made Chu Yue's wrist hurt, and she couldn't help but snort, but she didn't want the whole person to be dragged into her arms by Xiao Mu.

The man in front of him was extremely angry, and his hand strength was not small, Chu Yue was pulled and dragged by him like this, and there was no room for reaction at all, but the whole person suddenly crashed into Xiao Mu's cold and hard arms, the tip of his nose hurt painfully, and tears couldn't help but flow out.

She panicked a little, but she didn't want Xiao Mu's right hand to wrap around her waist, but her left hand pinched her chin fiercely and forced her face in his direction, but in an instant, Xiao Mu's thin and cold lips pressed up.

Chu Yue's eyes widened suddenly, he wanted to struggle but was imprisoned in his world by the tyrant in front of him and couldn't move, his kiss was domineering and strong and could not be resisted, but it made people feel cold.

Chu Yue was already completely stunned, and in a hurry, she suddenly pushed away Xiao Mu, who was obviously a little confused, and she staggered back, her eyes full of horror.

Xiao Mu looked at Chu Yue fixedly, his eyes were smeared with palpitating fanaticism, he didn't expect this woman to be so sweet, it was something he had never felt before, it was intoxicating.

It took him a long time to regain a little bit of his senses, and he was a little dazed, why couldn't he control himself, why?

The trip to southern Xinjiang was extremely dangerous, he was really a little scared, in case he couldn't come back, he would never see her again, he was a little reluctant.

Chu Yue looked at the unpredictable man in front of him, and subconsciously took a step back, his mind was blank, did this person like her or humiliate her? How did she cope with such an act during her filial piety?

Xiao Mu looked at Chu Yue fixedly and said, "Go with this king, and when you return, you will be the king's concubine!" How is it? ”
