Chapter Seventy-One: Back to Chu

Ye Zichen expected it right, after Ye Xun returned to the palace, he announced that the eldest princess was killed by the remnants of the previous rebels, and ordered a thick burial, and at the same time, he also vaguely ordered Ye Zichen and Nangong Jinheng to expel guests.

For this result, Nangong Jinheng didn't expect it, Ye Xun was so angry yesterday, he didn't think about it, but he put it down gently, could he really endure this breath?

However, after thinking about it, Ye Xun did not have enough evidence, and with the current national strength of Yan State, he could not compete with Chu Guoxiang, Ye Xun could only swallow this breath for the sake of the country, but after all, he buried a thorn in his heart.

Nangong Jinheng thought so, although it was not what he expected, but he did not regret killing Ye Fuyan, even if it was just for Mu Ranyue.

On the day of departure, Ye Xun stood on the city tower and watched them gradually move away, his eyes were dark and inexplicable.

After Ye Fuyan was buried, Ye Xun's sanity slowly returned, and he suddenly felt that this matter was not as simple as he thought. And when Ye Zichen was leaving, he sent someone to send him a letter, he didn't want to read it, but in the end he opened it, and there was only one sentence in the letter, that is, the snipe and the clam competed for the fisherman's profit.

He knew who Ye Zichen was referring to, and at the same time, he also knew why Ye Zichen wanted to write this letter, because he was afraid that he would expose his identity in a fit of anger, and he couldn't help sneering in his heart.

Seeing that the envoys of the two countries had already gone away, Ye Xun turned around and went to Qifeng Palace to see Mu Qingwu.

Mu Qingwu was about to salute, but Ye Xun waved her hand to sit down.

And Mu Qingwu was a little caught off guard by Ye Xun's arrival, and his face didn't seem to be very good when he saw him again, maybe he was still sad about Ye Fuyan.

"Your Majesty is here, is there something wrong?" Mu Qingwu asked.

Ye Xun looked at her for a long time before saying, "The smoke is gone, the queen should be very happy." ”

Mu Qingwu's expression changed, and he hurriedly explained: "Why did Your Majesty say this? The concubine admitted that she didn't like the eldest princess very much on weekdays, but after all, she was His Majesty's sister-in-law, and she was also the concubine's sister, and now that she was gone, Your Majesty was sad, how could the concubine be happy? ”

Ye Xun said lightly: "The queen is really good at talking. ”

"What the concubine said is the truth, if Your Majesty doesn't believe it, then the concubine has nothing to say."

"Well, I believe in you. But in this way, the queen also wants to avenge Yan'er, right? ”

Mu Qingwu pretended to be suspicious: "The eldest princess was killed by the remnants of the rebels, didn't Your Majesty already kill them to take revenge?" ”

Ye Xun sneered: "Heh, don't pretend to me, the queen doesn't pretend to me, who was Yan'er harmed, don't you know anything?" ”

Hearing this, Mu Qingwu also knew the purpose of Ye Xun's coming, so he didn't plan to pretend to be confused, and said: "Since Your Majesty said so, the concubine can also tell Your Majesty with certainty that whether it is Changning or Ye Zichen, it is impossible to be the murderer who killed the eldest princess." ”

"Because they're all from your home country?" Ye Xun's face became even more gloomy.

"Nope." Mu Qingwu shook her head calmly, "Because the concubines believe that they are not stupid people." Although the eldest princess and Changning have a contradiction, it is impossible for them to kill the princess of a country for this contradiction, so it is not beneficial to anyone. ”

After listening to Mu Qingwu's answer, Ye Xun thought about it seriously, and he had less doubts about Ye Zichen in his heart.

Indeed, although Ye Zichen came as an envoy of the Chu State, he knew his true identity, if he really killed him, it was the Yun State but the Chu State that he wanted to anger. And it is very likely that he will send someone to Chu State to shake out his identity, and it is impossible for a person who is so cautious as Ye Zichen to take such a big risk.

"Okay, I got it."

After getting Mu Qingwu's answer, Ye Xun got up and left.

After Ye Xun left, Mu Qingwu's body suddenly became a little soft, it turned out that she was still very afraid of this man.

Ye Zichen on the carriage was closing his eyes and pretending to sleep, but his brows were slightly furrowed.

Ye Xun is one of the few people who knows his true identity, they used to be friends, so they were not worried that Ye Xun would tell his true identity, but now Ye Xun hates himself a lot, I wonder if he will retaliate for this?

That's why I wrote to remind him, and I don't know if he can read it. If it were someone else, Ye Zichen would have killed people a long time ago, but Ye Xun was his rare friend.

However, just in case, Ye Zichen still sent someone to keep an eye on it.

Suddenly, Ye Zichen felt a pair of softness gently covering his brows, and pressed gently, as if to make his brows stretch.

He suddenly felt a warm flow in his heart, the corners of his mouth were lightly raised, and the boredom in his heart was instantly swept away.

As long as she's around, everything will be fine.

Soon, the team arrived at the junction of the three kingdoms, the state of Chu was in the east, and the country of Yun was in the west, and the two teams were about to part ways.

According to the etiquette, Ye Zichen and Nangong Jinheng should get out of the car to say goodbye to each other, and then, Nangong Jinheng proposed to talk to Mu Ranyue alone.

Ye Zichen was displeased, but Mu Ranyue agreed without hesitation.

The two moved away from the group and stopped in front of a wood.

Nangong Jinheng looked at her deeply, feeling melancholy in his heart, stretched out his hand and couldn't help but want to touch her face, Mu Ranyue turned her head unnaturally.

Nangong Jinheng was disappointed, "Yue'er ......"

Mu Ranyue pretended not to see his lost expression, and said, "Cousin Heng, this time, we don't know when we will be able to meet." She was also quite reluctant in her heart.

"Yes, when you leave, Yue'er doesn't have anything to say to me?" Nangong Jinheng asked with some expectation.

Mu Ranyue really doesn't know what to say to Nangong Jinheng now, now Nangong Jinheng is the prince of Yunguo, and he is no longer the Murong Heng who played with her in the past.

Nangong Jinheng saw that she hadn't spoken, and knew what she was thinking, so she said helplessly: "That's it." ”

"I ......" Mu Ranyue was also a little uncomfortable.

And Nangong Jinheng said with a straight face: "Yue'er, now that I see you doing well, I am also relieved, but I have to remind you that Ye Zichen is by no means as simple as you see, you had better not believe him too much." ”

Mu Ranyue didn't expect him to say this, she naturally understood that Ye Zichen was scheming, but so what? As long as he doesn't use that scheming on himself, as long as he loves himself all the time, then these are not problems. And trust between husband and wife is valuable, and now that I am married to him, I must trust him wholeheartedly.

thought so in her heart, but she couldn't bear to disappoint Nangong Jinheng, because she also knew that Nangong Jinheng was for her own good, although there was also selfishness in it.

Nodding his head, "I see." ”

The two chatted for a while, and when they saw that it was not early, they exchanged treasures and went back to their carriages.

Ye Zichen saw Mu Ranyue coming back and said, "Why have you been gone for so long?" ”

Mu Ranyue sighed: "After all, he used to be my cousin, but now that he is parting, he doesn't know when he will see each other again, so he chatted for a long time." ”

Ye Zichen was worried, but he didn't say anything more.

On June 17, Ye Zichen and Mu Ranyue returned to Nanling smoothly. First of all, he went to the palace to report the envoy situation to Mu Xuanche. After entering the palace, I saw the concubine who had just come out of the Qiande Palace.

The concubine naturally saw them as well, and raised a smile, and when her eyes fell on Ye Zichen, the smile became a little more meaningful. After saluting each other, the concubine stroked her stomach and left, but when she passed by Ye Zichen, she paused slightly, and Ye Zichen's expression became a little unnatural, but Mu Ranyue didn't notice it.

Ye Zichen adjusted his mood and went to Qiande Palace with Mu Ranyue.

And after Mu Ranyue saw Mu Xuanche, she proposed to go to see Han Susu, and Mu Xuanche responded.

Han Susu was naturally very happy that Mu Ranyue came to see her as soon as she came back, and immediately pulled someone to sit down.

After Mu Ranyue told her something about her in Yanguo, she asked again: "How is my sister in the palace recently?" ”

Han Susu stroked her stomach and said with a light smile: "Don't worry, I'm fine." And, I'm pregnant. ”

After the showdown with Mu Xuanche that day, Han Susu thought that Mu Xuanche would not come to Weiyang Palace, but on the second day, Mu Xuanche sent someone to remove the incense in her palace. And Mu Xuanche also came over in the evening and whispered in her ear, "Don't you want a child?" Okay, I'll give it to you. ”

She couldn't understand Mu Xuanche's mind for a while, but she also obeyed him. After that day, Mu Xuanche stayed in Weiyang Palace night and night until she became pregnant.

Hearing this, Mu Ranyue was stunned, and then said: "Congratulations to my sister, I didn't expect my sister to get pregnant so soon." That incense, did my sister find out who did it? ”

Han Susu nodded slightly, but she didn't tell her the reason, but said, "Don't always talk about me, you've been married for more than half a year, it's time to have a child." ”

Mu Ranyue nodded, but she didn't care in her heart, she was not yet sixteen, how could she give birth to a child so early?

Mu Ranyue asked a few more words, and the harem people came to report that Ye Zichen was already waiting for her outside, so Mu Ranyue got up and said goodbye.

Back in the house, Mu Ranyue suddenly felt relaxed, after being away for so long, she was really comfortable at home.

After dinner, the two of them enjoyed the moon in the courtyard together because of the cool breeze outside and the moonlight was just right.

Ye Zichen hugged Mu Ranyue, under the moon before the flowers, the beauty was in her arms, it should be indescribably comfortable, but Ye Zichen was preoccupied, and she couldn't show it in front of Mu Ranyue, and she saw what clues.

Today's words in his ear made him a little at a loss, and not long after returning home, he received news that Nangong Yue Peng was going to attack Chu within two months, which also meant that he and Dye were going to separate.

Ye Zichen suddenly put his hand into Mu Ranyue's chest.

Mu Ranyue's body couldn't help but tremble, patted his hand, and said coquettishly: "What are you doing?" ”

Seeing her shyness, Ye Zichen was in a slightly better mood, and couldn't help but joke: "Why are you so nervous?" Is there anything else in your body that I haven't touched? ”

"You ......" Mu Ranyue's face flushed, but she couldn't say anything to refute.

saw Ye Zichen take out the jade pendant she was wearing on her chest and rub it carefully.

Mu Ranyue was puzzled, "What are you doing here?" ”
