The man wiped the blood stains from the corners of his mouth, smiled slightly, and said, "Fifth princess, long time no see!" ”

Hearing this, Yu Ruyan was completely dumbfounded.

This sentence is still familiar to her!

I still remember that after I first arrived in the palace and was punished by Gu Qing'er, I was lying alone on the small bed in the bungalow, and woke up in the middle of the night, and there was a person with a silver mask on his face standing next to the bed, and the first thing the person said was this sentence: 'Long time no see!' ”

She looked at the man in front of her in disbelief with an extremely handsome face and a warm smile, and said in a trembling voice: "You...... You're the Silver Mask Man?! ”

"Yes, it's me!"

Mu Yizhi completely regarded the people around him as air, and didn't pay attention to Mu Lingzhi, who had been staring at him dumbfounded, just looked at Yu Ruyan with a smile.

Even if she heard his confession in person, Yu Ruyan still couldn't connect the gentle man in front of her with the masked man who spoke coldly and was cold all over his body.

She looked at him stupidly in a daze, she didn't expect him under the cold mask to look like such a gentle and virtuous appearance, which was far from the mask man who refused to tell her identity and said in a solemn tone.

Suddenly, she suddenly remembered that Mu Lingzhi had told her before that the masked man was his cousin, the former crown prince Mu Yizhi!

Moreover, and this person has a deep hatred for Mu Lingzhi and King Liang, and has been looking for Mu Lingzhi to seek revenge, and he did many assassinations before, so he suddenly appeared here today, but ......

The whole body trembled, and Yu Ruyan, who had reacted, stopped in front of Mu Lingzhi without thinking about it, and said tremblingly: "You...... Are you ...... today? What is it for? ”

Looking at her appearance that she was afraid that she would hurt Mu Lingzhi, Mu Yizhi's heart swelled with sourness and envy, and he knew that if he didn't let go of his hatred and insisted on seeking revenge against Mu Lingzhi, he was afraid that the first one to stand in front of his sword would be Yu Ruyan!

And in this life, he can hate all the people in the world, he can kill all the people in the world, but he is not willing to touch her at all!

He smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "Don't worry, princess, I'm here today......"

But before he could speak, the sharp-eyed minister recognized the man who was struggling to save people, and immediately exclaimed: "

Wing...... Tsubasa Prince!! ”

This exclamation was like a thunderclap in the clear sky, which stunned the entire square, and Mu Xiang and the senior ministers were even more stunned on the spot, thinking that they were dazzled!

How is it possible, Prince Yi has been dead for more than ten years, and the charred bones are buried in the imperial tomb, and they have long been turned into a piece of loess, why is he still alive in front of everyone, and he sacrificed his life to save this foreign princess!?

At this time, the knife that happened to rush to Yu Ruyan's side trembled all over his body when he heard the three sons of Prince Yi, and looked sideways incredulously, and when he saw the familiar and somewhat unfamiliar faces in front of him, he didn't have time to ask Yu Ruyan where he was injured, and he muttered silently: "Wing ...... Brother Tsubasa!? ”

Concubine Xie Guifei was already shocked by today's changes, and King Liang was already petrified on the spot after hearing the words Prince Yi!

The scene suddenly fell eerily silent from the noise!

Being hit by the thick pillar, Mu Yizhi felt a hot pain in his back, and his internal organs were also in pain, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, looked at the three people in front of him who were extremely surprised, smiled indifferently, and said to the ministers who were all stunned: "It's me, I am Mu Yizhi, the former prince of Daliang!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and the ministers were dumbfounded!

Some of the old ministers, looking at Prince Yi, who looked very much like the former queen, couldn't help but burst into tears!

Listening to the person in front of him admit that he was the one who had been dead for ten years, King Liang completely recovered from the shock, his expression was flustered, his feet stepped on the mess on the ground, he stumbled, almost fell to the ground, and was quickly helped up by the inner supervisor next to him......

King Liang clasped the hands of the inner supervisor with both hands, a chill rose all over his body, and the panic and uneasiness in his eyes gradually solidified into a thick murderous aura!

Regarding the news that Prince Yi is still alive, King Liang has heard Mu Xiang mention it before.

When Mu Lingzhi went to Daqi to find Jade Ruyan, he was stopped at the gate of the city by Mu Ziyue, and Mu Lingzhi told her the news that Prince Yi might still be alive in order to cut off her thoughts about herself, because after all, she was the crown princess set by the emperor and the nominal wife of Prince Yi. Mu Lingzhi originally thought that she and Prince Yi had set up a relationship since childhood, and the two grew up together, and they must still have feelings for him, but now that she knows that Prince Yi is not dead, she will be happy and look forward to his return.

But what Mu Lingzhi didn't expect was that Mu Ziyue not only felt joy at the news that Prince Yi was still alive, but a kind of resentment, she seemed to understand why Mu Lingzhi's attitude towards her changed so much later, partly because Yu Ruyan robbed her of her love, and partly because of Prince Yi.

Mu Ling has the most affection in his life, he was so good to her and was willing to marry her, but it was also because he killed Prince Yi ten years ago and felt indebted to her, so he has been staying by her side with a mood of atonement, taking care of her, and being good to her, in fact, he is paying off the debt he owes to Prince Yi.

But Mu Ziyue never understood the reason for this before, in her heart, she just thought that Mu Lingzhi was worshipping under her beauty, and she didn't know how to cherish it at all, while wanting to get Mu Lingzhi's love, and on the other hand, she wanted to be the crown princess, and she was torn between the eldest prince Mu Yunzhi and the third prince Mu Lingzhi, until finally Yu Ruyan occupied Mu Lingzhi's heart, she woke up and regretted it!

But she was proud, and she was willing to stop there, thinking that Prince Yi had become a drag on her relationship with Mu Lingzhi, so after going back, she told Mu Xiang about it and asked Mu Xiang to tell King Liang.

Because she knew that once King Liang knew that Prince Yi was still alive, she would definitely kill him by all means.

Mu Ziyue thought that as long as Prince Yi died, Mu Lingzhi would not think that she was Prince Yi's person, so she would still have a chance to marry into the Three Princes' Mansion.

After King Liang received the news provided by Mu Xiang, he immediately sent people to quietly search for the whereabouts of Prince Yi. and issued a secret decree, as long as the former prince does not need to return, he will be killed on the spot!

The people who could be sent out quietly searched for a long time, and secretly searched the entire beam, but there was no trace of Prince Xianyi.

King Liang didn't give up because of this, because he knew that this news came out of Mu Lingzhi's mouth, and his son, he has always been cautious in doing things, and he would not talk nonsense about unfounded things.

King Liang was originally waiting for Mu Lingzhi to ask him about Prince Yi after he came back from Daqi, but he didn't expect that on such an important occasion today, he would appear in public silently and fearlessly!

Today is the crown prince's seal ceremony, and at this sensitive and important moment, he appeared as a former prince, and his intentions are self-evident!

Moreover, these disasters born in today's sacrifice will not be such a coincidence, could it be a conspiracy he made in advance?

Almost in an instant, countless thoughts flashed through King Liang's mind, he was suspicious by nature, and he would never let go of anything that was dangerous to him, so even if he knew that the person in front of him was the former prince and his own nephew, he was unwilling to admit it, let alone admit it in front of the ministers and officials.

Because, King Liang himself also understands in his heart that he used extraordinary means to seize the throne, although decades have passed, but there are still many old ministers who still believe in their hearts that the former emperor still believes in their hearts, if you let those ministers who supported the former emperor know now that the former prince is still alive, he will definitely find ways to support the former prince to ascend to the throne, and the country that he finally stabilized will be turbulent again!

King Liang's eyes were cold, and with a wave of his hand, the black-pressed Yulin Army had already surrounded Mu Yizhi, and the cold and shining spears in his hands were all aimed at Mu Yizhi.

Almost instantly, Mu Lingzhi was already in front of Mu Yizhi, just like Fang Caiyu Ruyan protected him, blocking the spear aimed at Mu Yizhi.

And the little knife, who had been in a stunned state, also bullied forward after coming back to his senses, and like Mu Lingzhi, he blocked Prince Wing behind him.

"Father, what are you doing here?"

Mu Lingzhi was full of coldness and awe, and asked King Liang in front of the ministers.

King Liang saw that his two sons were openly against him, his eyes were so angry that he glared, and said coldly: "The former prince Mu Yizhi has been dead for decades, how can he still be alive in the world, the person in front of him must be a fake, but he calls himself the prince here because of his appearance and the prince of wings, and the gossip confuses the public, and the matter of today's altar is obviously deliberately done by someone, and this person who is a demon must be the person in front of him who pretends to be the prince of wings." Don't be deceived by him, get out of the way quickly, and let the Yulin Army arrest him and put him in the prison for strict interrogation. ”

Mu Lingzhi knew that his father had murderous intentions, he was very anxious, and he couldn't understand why Prince Yi had worked hard to hide his identity for decades, why did he suddenly appear single-handedly at a moment like today, didn't he know that he was seeking death by doing so?

He tilted his head slightly and said hurriedly to Mu Yizhi behind him: "Cousin, wait a minute, I will drag Yulin Jun with the knife, and you take the opportunity to escape from the palace!" ”

Mu Yizhi heard his words, and sneered disapprovingly: "I am the enemy of your father and son, and now that your father wants to kill me, shouldn't you stand aside with him, like ten years ago, give me a cold sword, and let me die here?" ”

Hearing what he said, Mu Lingzhicai suddenly remembered that the mutiny ten years ago was also in this square, and his father and the former emperor were fighting desperately, and he saw Prince Yi pull up his long bow against his father and stab the long sword in his hand into his chest......

The past was vivid in an instant, Mu Lingzhi seemed to see the fire in the sky and the blood flowing all over the ground, and the whole world was red, stabbing him so much that he couldn't open his eyes......

Mu Lingzhi's chest was suffocated, as if he was caught between two boulders, and both sides were exerting force on him at the same time, sandwiching him in the crack of the stone, unable to move.

But he couldn't pull out, and he didn't dare to pull out, because once he pulled out, the two big stones were bound to collide together, and both would lose!

Mu Lingzhi's lips moved with difficulty, trying to persuade Mu Yizhi to something, but he couldn't open his mouth.

He understands Prince Yi's hatred for him and his father, and he is qualified to persuade him to let go!

The knife on the side saw Mu Lingyi's face in pain, but Prince Yi was calm and clear, he didn't put Mu Lingzhi's words in his heart at all, and he was not afraid of his father attacking him, and he was also anxious in his heart-

Ten years ago, although Xiaodao was only a six or seven-year-old doll, he was equally impressed by Mu Yizhi.

He has been with his brother Mu Lingzhi since he was a child, and Mu Lingzhi likes to play with Mu Yizhi, naturally, he also likes this cousin, plus later, after that incident, every year during the Hanrui Festival, Mu Lingzhi hid in the palace alone and never went out, since then, he knew that killing his cousin by mistake was a hurdle that his brother Mu Lingzhi couldn't get over in his heart for the rest of his life.

At that time, the only people he liked most in his heart were his mother and brother, so seeing that Mu Lingzhi was unhappy, his wish since childhood was to hope that one day he could untie his brother's heart knot and let him come out of the events of that year!

And now the old thing is repeated, in this same place, the father once again wants his cousin's life, Mu Lingzhi will definitely not agree, and Xiaodao thought of his willingness many years ago, and involuntarily stepped forward and stood with Mu Lingzhi.

At this moment, the knife let go of the suspicion of his brother because of Yu Ruyan, in fact, in addition to this matter, the most respected person in the knife in his life is still his brave and invincible brother!

It's a pity that creation makes people make people, but it makes the two brothers fall in love with the same woman, but the two brothers are both persistent and dedicated, and they must be jade and beautiful......

Today's sudden accident at the seal ceremony has made Concubine Xie panicked, and now she is even more furious when she sees that her two sons are against King Liang for the sake of the former prince, but she is a smart woman after all, looking at the decisive appearance of her two sons, she knows that at this time they must not care about the consequences, and they can't persuade them, so they have to run to King Liang and whisper in his ear.

The concubine told King Liang that in front of the ministers, he couldn't be too anxious, lest people say that he was suspected of killing people, after all, there were so many ministers at the scene, and everyone's eyes were bright, if King Liang was too anxious to get rid of Mu Yizhi on the spot, it would cause the indignation of the old ministers, and it might be written into the history books, and the history would be stained!

King Liang is a person who is very deep in the city, and he usually does things without leakage, but he is so impulsive today, but he was disturbed by the incident that had just sacrificed to the sky, and Mu Yizhi's sudden appearance made him have a terrible sense of crisis, thinking that he appeared to regain the throne, so in a hurry, he forgot about so many ministers present.

As soon as he heard Concubine Xie's words, King Liang calmed down, he stared and thought for a while, waved his hand to let Yu Linjun retreat, came to Mu Yizhi with his hand, pretended to be serious and looked at him carefully from his feet to his feet, suppressed the shock in his heart, and said slowly: "Your Excellency keeps saying that you are the prince of Qianyi, is there any evidence?" ”

Hearing this, Mu Yizhi smiled coldly, walked out from behind the two Mu family brothers, and stood quietly in front of King Liang, with a flat expression on his face, but his eyes were cold-

"How about the evidence? What if there is no evidence? Mu Yizhi looked coldly at the father-killing enemy in front of him, his hands were tightly clasped in his sleeves, and he said in a cold voice: "If it can be proved that I am the Wing Prince ten years ago, how are you going to deal with me, whether to return my father's thousands of miles of rivers and mountains or kill me!" ”

The contemptuous sneer on the corner of his mouth made King Liang's heart angry, and his generosity couldn't be pretended, and he also looked coldly at the person in front of him who should have been dead for many years, and said coldly: "Before you find out your true identity, you are not qualified to talk to me about these unnecessary things!" ”

After that, he turned to Lord Shaoqing Wang of Dali Temple and commanded sharply: "You are an old minister of the two dynasties, and you are responsible for bringing this person down to find out his identity." If he is really the orphan of the royal brother, I will take good care of him for the imperial brother. If he doesn't, bring me a head! ”

"Also, I also ordered you Dali Temple to give me an answer in three days. After the truth is ascertained, the Ministry of Rites will select a date to hold the sealing ceremony. All of you stand down! ”

King Liang is still smart after all, when he calms down, he doesn't want to have too much entanglement with Mu Yizhi, and what happened ten years ago, and then turning it out and confronting him will only have an impact on his reputation.

Now he deals with Mu Yi's friendship with the two dynasties and two ministers, just to block the mouths of the people, so as not to let people say that he killed the only bloodline left by the emperor.

As soon as King Liang's voice fell, all the ministers bowed and retreated, and when the eldest prince heard that King Liang asked Dali Temple to investigate the altar, he couldn't help but panic in his heart, for fear that he would show his horse's feet, so he hurriedly bowed and retreated with the ministers, but was quietly stopped by Mu Xiang.

Mu Tong said quietly: "Your Royal Highness, God help you, now that there is such a good opportunity in front of you, you must stay, and you must let King Liang be the opponent of Prince Yi, like this, the sword has no eyes, and the middle three people were killed in one fell swoop, and among the princes of the next generation of Liang, there is only His Royal Highness left, so are you still afraid that someone will rob you?" ”

Mu Yunzhi was originally a little afraid that the matter of the altar would be revealed by his father, and his heart trembled, but now when he heard what Mu Xiangyi said, he couldn't help but suddenly realize, and said happily: "It's still Mu Xiang's wisdom, in this way, the three thorns in the eye have been completely removed, and God is really helping me regain the position of the crown prince!" ”

But when he thought about it, he had doubts in his heart, and couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Forgive the palace for bluntly, the noble daughter was promised to Prince Yi as the princess before, and now that Prince Yi has returned, why didn't Mu Xiang support him to take the throne, but ...... instead?"

The suspicion of the eldest prince made Mu Xiang feel annoyed, but now he is a grasshopper on the same rope as him, and there is no other way to think of it except to advance and retreat together, but Mu Xiang understands this truth, but the eldest prince Mu Yunzhi has not yet understood, and he does not fully trust Mu Xiang in his heart, but if he has the slightest doubt, he will not be suspicious, but this is very similar to King Liang.

Seeing the eldest prince's distrust of him, Mu Xiang hated himself for being short-sighted and chose to support him. But when it came to this, it was not the time to worry about him, so I had to press the anger in my heart and said: "Your Royal Highness is too worried, no matter how noble this prince was before, now he is just a ball of dough in the emperor's hand, and the emperor is in the hands of the emperor, and today he is exposing his identity in front of so many people, with your understanding of your father and the emperor, will the emperor let the tiger return to the mountain again?" ”

"Therefore, the matter between him and my daughter has become a page in history, and my daughter will not marry a dead man, whether it was or will be."

"Your Highness, as long as you remember, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to solve all your worries at one time, even if you can't let your two younger brothers die, you must let this matter become a barrier between them and the emperor, so that the emperor will be disappointed in them, and even hate!"

"As for the matter of the altar, it will be carried out according to the original plan, and the old minister will help His Highness deal with it well, Your Highness must not panic!"

After listening to Mu Xiang's words, Mu Yun's worries in his heart were completely dispelled, and he said proudly: "If this time according to Mu Xiang's plan succeeds in making this palace the prince again, this palace hereby promises that when this palace is crowned with a great treasure, he will definitely seal Xiaoyue as the queen and respect you as the national abbot!" ”

Mu Xiang's heart moved, and he said gratefully: "In this way, the old minister first thanked His Highness for the little girl's kindness!" ”

Hurriedly saying goodbye to Mu Xiang, Mu Yunzhi returned to his original place, stood by King Liang's side, and said in a worried tone: "Father, the son was supposed to leave the palace according to the order, but in the end, he was worried about the safety of his father, so he was relieved to come back and stay by his father's side." ”

King Liang saw that he was not an outsider and let him stay.

The king of Dali Temple was an old minister under the emperor, and he personally stepped forward to bow his hand to Mu Yizhi and said respectfully: "Please also ...... Your Excellency went to Dali Temple with the old minister! ”

Although many ministers have recognized the man in front of them as the former prince, King Liang's words are not wrong, this matter is very important, and it is indeed necessary to find out his identity before making a conclusion.

"No need!" Mu Yizhi said coldly.

His expression was indifferent, but his clear eyes were stained with sadness.

Although he looked calm on the surface, Yu Ruyan saw the slightly exposed green tendons on his clenched fist.

He closed his eyelids, his long, dense eyelashes trembling slightly, and looking at his description, it looked like he was fighting fiercely inside, as if, as if he was making a difficult decision.

In the end, he suddenly opened his eyes, and the moment he saw Yu Ruyan, a trace of tenderness unconsciously stained his tightly pursed lips, and slowly opened his lips-

"King Liang doesn't need to bother to know who I am, I came here today, but I heard that Da Liang is going to set up a new prince, and I want to exchange an old thing with King Liang for three conditions!"

Hearing his words, he couldn't help but look at him in a daze, even Mu Lingzhi.

Seeing that the ministers had all left, King Liang didn't bother to give Prince Yi a good face anymore, and said coldly: "What do you have that is worth agreeing to your three conditions!" ”

In his opinion, Prince Yi is like a bird that throws himself into a net, how can he exchange words for people who are locked in cages and can't even save their lives!

Just when King Liang was very disdainful, Mu Yizhi sneered: "I heard my father say that King Liang spent all his efforts for this Dragon Xiao Sword at the beginning, why, now that he is the emperor, he doesn't take it seriously!?" ”

After that, ignoring the greedy essence that suddenly appeared in King Liang's eyes, he reached out and slowly pulled out the sword he was wearing at his waist, the sound of the dragon chanting and tiger roaring was ringing in his ears, and the cold tip of the sword pointed at King Liang in front of him!

"King Liang really doesn't want this sword?"

"Ah...... Escort Escort! ”

However, without waiting for King Liang to speak, I don't know who shouted, the Yulin Army, who had originally retreated, reacted quickly and surrounded Mu Yizhi and the three of them, and the eldest prince Mu Yunzhi, who was standing beside King Liang, had already his eyes flashing, snatched the spear in the hands of the Yulin Army beside him and stabbed at the middle three......
