Chapter 53: Death

East Palace.

"Your Highness, Weichen doesn't understand, King Duan, no, King Qingyang has no power and power, and he is not a threat to you, but why do you still risk being suspicious of His Majesty to deal with him?" A staff member asked.

"As long as he is the prince, he is a threat to Lone, only if he never has the possibility of succeeding to the throne, Lone, the prince, can be stable, as for his father's suspicion,"

Mu Xuanche paused for a moment, and then sneered, "Now Yu Gu is not afraid, even if his father knows that it was Gu who did it?" In that case, in order to save the royal face, the father had to punish Mu Xuanzhan, and now the father has only one son under his knees, and his body can't last long, and now as long as the orphan doesn't touch his bottom line, he won't do anything to the orphan. ”

As for Mu Ruiyuan's bottom line, he knows better than anyone else, that is Mu Ranyue. It was precisely because he knew this that when he heard that Mu Ruiyuan wanted to establish the imperial concubine, although he was not angry in his heart, he endured it in the end, otherwise the fate of the Ling family might also be his fate, and he also successfully used this to bring down Mu Xuanyang.

"Your Highness is wise, and your subordinates are obedient."

The two chatted for a while, and then listened to the father-in-law of the steward to report: "Your Highness, Your Majesty has summoned you to see you." ”

Ye Zichen went to the palace early in the morning to pick up Mu Ranyue, because she was worried about Mu Ruiyuan, Mu Ranyue didn't sleep well all night, so her face was a little bad.

Ye Zichen looked distressed, but teased: "It seems that Dye doesn't have me, but I can't even sleep well." ”

Mu Ranyue glanced at him angrily.

Ye Zichen took her hand and said, "Let's go, go and say goodbye to my father." ”

When he arrived at the gate of Qiande Palace, Wang Xi stepped forward and saluted: "Meet Her Royal Highness the Princess, Lord Hou." ”

"Princess, I'm here to say goodbye to my father."

"This, it's really a coincidence now, Your Majesty just announced His Royal Highness the Prince, so I also ask Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Hou Ye to wait a while."

Mu Ranyue glanced at Ye Zichen in disappointment, just wait, just wait.

In the hall, Mu Xuanche knelt on the cold floor tiles, Mu Ruiyuan looked at him condescendingly, and suddenly asked, "Yesterday's incident, did you do it?" ”

Mu Xuanche looked at him without fear: "Doesn't my father know about it?" If the father wants to dispose of his son, then dispose of it, and the son confesses. ”

"You ......" "snapped", Mu Xuanche had been knocked to the ground, and he endured the pain and knelt down again.

"I never care about your scheming on weekdays, but he is your own brother, how can you do it like this?" Mu Ruiyuan couldn't help coughing.

"Father, you were also a prince, do you really think that the royal family has good brothers who love each other? For the sake of this supreme position, who will recognize the so-called brothers? Father, didn't you come here like this before? ”

Mu Ruiyuan was stunned, yes, didn't he fight with other brothers in the past to get this throne?

However, although he thought so, he still couldn't tolerate what Mu Xuanche did, Mu Xuanche was so cold, so when he died, how would he treat Yue'er?

Mu Xuan saw Mu Ruiyuan's expression in a trance, saw what he was thinking, and said firmly: "Father, rest assured, the son of the emperor swears here, if the son ascends the throne as the emperor in the future, he will definitely not hurt the little imperial sister, and will ensure her health for the rest of her life, otherwise, the five thunders will hit the top and the throne will not be guaranteed." ”

Mu Ruiyuan looked at him steadily, there was really no impurity in his eyes at the moment, "Okay, I believe in you, you are a capable person, I believe that you will govern the Chu State well." ”

As soon as these words came out, it was decided that Mu Xuanche's position as the prince would not change again, and Mu Xuanche was very happy: "The son of the minister thanked his father for his grace." ”

Out of the Qiande Palace, Mu Xuanche and Ye Zichen and his wife took a photo, and both of them were a little surprised by the five finger prints on his face, which was beaten? But they also guessed in their hearts what was going on.

"The two of you are here to see your father, let's go in quickly."

When Mu Xuanche saw Mu Ranyue, he thought of the oath he had just made. In this era, oaths are very important, and Mu Xuanche is no exception.

In fact, for Mu Ranyue, Mu Xuanche is also a little sincere, after all, when Mu Ranyue was in the palace when he was a child, he was closest to him and Mu Qingyi, so he also loved Mu Ranyue as a sister, and Mu Ranyue was beautiful and had a good temperament, and he didn't mind pampering a little more for such a sister.

During the Chinese New Year, it was a good time to go out to play, and Ye Zichen also wanted to take Mu Ranyue out to play for a few days, but Mu Ruiyuan's body was getting worse, and Mu Ranyue had to enter the palace almost every day to diagnose his pulse, but it was useless, and now Mu Ruiyuan could hardly even stand up.

The news of the emperor's serious illness could not be hidden, and Mu Ruiyuan passed an edict that the crown prince was in charge of the country.

"Yue'er, just now I saw your mother, she was standing there, looking at me, smiling, I wanted to go over and hold her hand, but I ......" Mu Ruiyuan leaned on the bed, closed his eyes and said weakly.

"Father......" Mu Ranyue's eyes were full of tears, these days the father has been talking nonsense, talking about the queen mother, she is really heartbroken, pity herself for her medical skills, but even her father can't save her.

Mu Xuanche and Mu Qingyi are also serving here.

The imperial physician also serves here in order to be summoned at any time.

"Is my father really hopeless?" Mu Xuanche asked these imperial doctors.

An imperial doctor replied: "Back to Your Highness, Your Majesty's body has failed, the oil has run out, and the medicine stone is useless." However, Weichen has a law, maybe try. ”

"Say."

"Yes, in fact, it is a happy event, and it is also what the folk call Chongxi."

Chongxi? Mu Xuanche frowned, he naturally didn't believe these statements, so he didn't agree.

Mu Ranyue suddenly said: "Since it's a method, it's better to give it a try." ”

"The royal sister believes this?"

"It's not that I believe it or not, my father is like this now, only a dead horse is a live horse doctor." Mu Ran Yue replied.

Mu Xuanche nodded, since this is the case, why not try it?

But whose joy is it going to do?

"In my opinion, it's better to do the marriage between my brother and Su Su." Mu Qingyi proposed.

After thinking about it, Mu Xuanche agreed.

So, in the name of rejoicing for His Majesty, Mu Xuanche and Han Susu hastily got married, and many etiquettes were directly skipped.

To everyone's surprise, on the third day after the wedding, Mu Ruiyuan's consciousness suddenly became clear, and his spirit seemed good, and he even asked people to help him go out for a walk.

Could it be that this rush is really effective?

Mu Ranyue accompanied Mu Ruiyuan, knowing in her heart that her father was just returning to the light.

But she listened to Mu Ruiyuan's words and personally helped him out, Mu Ruiyuan's face was full of smiles, if it weren't for the vague footsteps under his feet, he really looked like a nobody.

However, after less than half an hour of shopping, Mu Ruiyuan's body fell softly, "Father! "Your Majesty!" Everyone was shouting, but Mu Ruiyuan couldn't hear it anymore.

On the twelfth day of the first month of the twenty-first year of the twenty-first year of the state of Chu, Xi and Emperor Mu Rui collapsed, and there was one in forty.

The death knell rang in the palace, and the ministers went to the gate of Longzong, Susu, and cried for three days.

All the concubines, princes, and princesses knelt before the spirit and wept bitterly.

Although she had been mentally prepared, Mu Ranyue was still grief-stricken, and even almost fainted, but Zichen was careful to comfort her on the side overnight, which made her feel a lot better.

"Brother Chen, in the future, the only one I can rely on is you." Mu Ranyue lay in Ye Zichen's arms, her voice hoarse.

"Don't worry, I will be your lifelong dependent." Ye Zichen gently patted her back, and although her tone was indifferent, it was unquestionable.

These words made Mu Ranyue feel at ease. Fortunately, in this saddest moment, he is by his side.

On the twenty-seventh day of the first month, Mu Xuanche ascended the throne, respecting his biological mother Mo Shufei as the queen mother, Yin Guifei as the noble concubine, and the crown princess Han as the queen. Mu Qingyi and Mu Ranyue also became the eldest princess.

Everything in the Chu State is on the right track, but in the Yun Kingdom, an earth-shattering thing is happening at this moment.

Cloud Country.

With this face of his own, Murong Heng entered the Imperial Hall of the Yun Kingdom without hindrance, interrupting the ministers who were ascending, "See His Majesty the Cloud Emperor." ”

Seeing him, Nangong Yue Peng and all the ministers were shocked.

Before everyone had time to investigate how he got in, they were shocked by his appearance, how could this person look exactly like the prince?

Nangong Jinxuan's face was even more pale, her legs were weak, and she almost couldn't stand. Murong Heng came like this, and the people under his hands didn't even notice it at all?

Nangong Yue Peng's eyes were about to pop out, and he pointed at Murong Heng with a trembling hand, "You, who are you?" ”

Murong Heng hooked his lips and smiled, "Your Majesty, if you say that it is your son, can you believe it?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers were in an uproar, and then they whispered.

This person and the prince look exactly the same, so there is only one possibility, these two are twins. With this face, many people in the court already believe that Murong Heng is the son of Nangong Yue Peng.

"You, what did you say?" Nangong Yue Peng was stunned.

"Your Majesty, look at my face, isn't it like the crown prince?" Murong Heng asked with a smile.

Nangong Yue Peng didn't know how to answer, the prince was his only son-in-law, and he also believed that he was orthodox, but now there was a person who looked the same as the prince, and he understood that unless it was disguise, except for the twins, this situation would never happen.

Sure enough, after the shock passed, the ministers began to whisper to each other.

Hubu Shangshu is Nangong Jinxuan's person, and after calming down, he immediately reported: "Your Majesty, this person's face is the same as His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no twin brothers, so Weichen thinks that he must have come in disguise and want to use this to deceive Your Majesty." ”

Disguised? Murong Heng smiled secretly in his heart, this is really a fool, who would be so stupid to change his appearance, that thing will fall off as soon as he soaks it in water.

Murong Heng said: "If Your Majesty suspects that it is easy to look at Xia, you can take water to try, oh, by the way, you can also prepare more water, so that you can have a blood recognition with Your Majesty when the time comes." ”

Hearing this, the ministers all felt that this method was feasible, Nangong Jinxuan's face was even paler, he knew that his position as the crown prince was about to end, and he couldn't help but feel even more sad and angry, blaming his useless subordinates, why didn't they destroy Murong Villa before.
