"It's still not good, whether it's a madman or a fool, he watched you smoke the eyes of the virtuous concubine, goodbye you, isn't the mother afraid that he will bite you to death?" Pang Jun said coldly.

"I'm still afraid of a seed?" Concubine Li sneered, and even counted her own son, and snorted, "Concubine Xian's slut is virtuous and virtuous, but she is also doing shady things behind her back, and I don't know whose child that evil seed is." ”

Faced with Concubine Li's stupidity, Pang Jun was speechless. Didn't she think that the emperor might already know that the three princes were not his species? In the past, Concubine Xian was sent to the cold palace, although it was only because she and the fetus in her womb were ominous, and she was not secretly married to someone, but after that, the emperor's attitude towards the prince was completely different.

For more than 20 years, the emperor has never taken into account the dignity of the prince when he beats or scolds the prince, and as for the third prince of Concubine Li, Pang Jun still remembers the gloomy smile when the emperor saw the baby in swaddling clothes. Concubine Li, however, self-righteously believed that the emperor did not know anything.

Pang Jun no longer has the heart to care about how stupid Concubine Li is, but Concubine Li's words at this moment also reminded him of the doubts he had always had, Concubine Xian's virtue is impeccable, not that Queen Mo or Concubine Li and Sun Zhaoyi can compare, she is a woman who is really enough to be a mother in the world, will such a woman really have an affair with someone and give birth to a bad seed?

Pang Jun's heart sank, and said: "If Niangniang hopes that the third prince can achieve the future we want, please listen to the arrangements of the old ministers, and if you have not discussed with the old ministers, please don't easily provoke anyone, whether it is the emperor, the prince, or the cold palace." ”

Concubine Li raised her eyebrows and said unwillingly, "When didn't I listen to your arrangement?" It's you, it's getting more and more inability to take care of the safety of our mother and son, Fang Cai's words are not to scare you, it's a big deal, if I don't feel good, I will never let you feel better. Just now you asked me if I was afraid that evil seed would bite me to death, and when the time came, I would definitely tell him that you asked me to blind her eyes, and you asked me to do it. ”

Pang Jun smiled slightly: "Niangniang, don't worry, there won't be this day." ”

He always had a smile on his face, but once he separated from Concubine Li, it was a depth that people didn't dare to look at directly. Walking step by step towards the outside of the palace, Huo Ran turned around and saw a high wall standing up, blocking his vision. The majestic and huge palace can only see one wall in the eyes of one person, and only by standing on the highest place can he overlook the whole world, but now he stands tall, and he is always under one person.

Qi Hui did not tell Xiangxiang about leaving Beijing, and Shifeng and Jian Feng were also told not to disclose it to Xiangxiang. Qi Hui was afraid that Xiangxiang was worried about what to do if her mother was alone in the cold palace, she couldn't go anywhere in Pang Mansion, so why bother with it, so when Xiangxiang's injuries and swelling disappeared and he could walk freely, Qi Hui had already left Beijing for two days.

Leaving the capital, the sea and the sky, and the pleasure of galloping horses, is a great temptation for people who have lived in the oppressive and dark cold palace for twenty years, if Qi Hui is gone, he alone will definitely have the ability to escape the pursuit of any faction, but with his mother, now there is more Xiangxiang, it is not so easy. Qi Hui rode his horse on the plain, saw a herd of cattle and sheep, he envied the comfortable and free life of the herdsman, but there was another voice in his heart, when the country will not be a country in Japan, how can he come to this beautiful scenery?

At this time, in the quiet town, in the world where there is a hole behind the heavy mechanism, Mu Qing hurriedly came to the forbidden workshop, his father was carefully studying the new mechanism technique, Mu Qing's intrusion made him a whole in his hand, the pin was half an inch deeper, and the whole thing became a piece of waste wood. Mr. Mu said angrily: "When you were a child, you broke into the workshop and was beaten countless times by your grandfather, why are you still so frizzy at the age of thirty." ”

Mu Qing smiled: "Isn't grandpa gone, no one cares?" "But then he was right," Dad, the second prince has left Beijing, and he has taken a good route, like going to explore the Gyeonggi garrison, although he can't go far, but he is also far away from the palace, and the son is thinking about it, it is a good opportunity. ”

Mr. Mu stroked his white beard lightly and thought: "Whether it is for the crown prince or Pang Jun, his whereabouts are under the control of these people, if you go rashly, if Your Highness does not recognize each other and has a conflict, it will cause trouble for him and us." The most important thing now is to find the unlocked key, and you must find it one step ahead of Pang Jun. ”

Mu Qingdao said: "What kind of key can't be unlocked with all the strength of our Mu family?" ”

Mr. Mu sighed: "Only Pang Jun has seen that thing, if I have seen it, I will definitely be able to reset a key, but unfortunately no one has seen it." ”

Mu Qing was a little discouraged, their family has been away for twenty years, there are many reasons, among them, finding and resetting a key that is enough to affect the lifeline of the country is one of them, too many clansmen have sacrificed for this, that key has disappeared for twenty years, can it really be recovered?

Mr. Mu said: "Don't approach His Highness easily, you have to be foolproof to recognize him, we are his last support, to save His Highness's life, in order to subvert the court and keep the country." ”

Mu Qing smiled and said, "When my father left my aunt, didn't he think so?" ”

Mr. Mu was full of guilt, and scolded his son: "Why do you always love to expose the scars of your old father, rebel." ”

Mu Qing pushed his father into the sun and said, "I will go back to the capital tomorrow, since only Pang Jun has seen the key, I still have to start with him, and my father takes care of his body." ”

The old gentleman touched his legs and feet: "I can still live for a while, but I don't know ...... your aunt"

"At the critical moment, I will go to the palace to see my aunt and not let my aunt pass away with regret." Mu Qing hurriedly made a promise to his father, but it was difficult to hide the sadness in his heart.

mentioned the regretful death, but the father smiled and said: "You are thirty years old, and you don't plan to give my Mu family a succession, so you are not afraid that I will regret my death." ”

Mu Qing smiled and said nothing, he knew in his heart that if the family still didn't see the light of day, what was the point of passing on the lineage? One day, the Mu family will re-open the family, and it is not too late to marry a wife and have children.

And when he was about to leave, Mr. Mu reminded his son: "The lock of the world is in a thousand forms, don't stick to the traditional key, we have tried so many but there is no result, it can be seen that it may not be as simple as we imagined." When you look for clues around Pang Jun, you have to pay attention to all kinds of strange things, and perhaps the most ordinary brand is enough to turn things around. ”

When Mu Qing left the town again, it was Qi Hui who led people to inspect here that day, the two passed by on the street, Qi Hui saw Mu Qing, and Mu Qing also saw Qi Hui, but none of them moved, and no one looked back.

Qi Hui guessed that "Feng Gongzi" was going back to the capital, but for some reason, he was inexplicably more relieved. He had already tacitly acquiesced that Feng Gongzi was his cousin Mu Qing, and he knew that in the invisible place, there would be more powerful forces to support him.

And Feng Gongzi returned to the capital on the first night, he went to the Closed Moon Pavilion, when Xi Niang saw this man upstairs, her heart trembled slightly, which made her feel uneasy, and the fireworks woman was the most taboo and emotional, and she couldn't tolerate it in this line.

The old bustard diligently wanted to invite Feng Gongzi to sit upstairs, but Xi Niang smiled against the railing, and the gauze fell down, revealing snow-white fragrant shoulders, slender fingers, and red nails, and gently hooked downstairs: "Lord Zhang, the slave family wants to play a game of chess with you." ”

The old bustard led Feng Gongzi at the staircase, seeing Xi Niang holding Zhang and disappearing upstairs, she smiled at Feng Gongzi embarrassedly: "Son, come back next time, this Lord Zhang, it was decided a ......few days ago."

The old bustard is poor in words, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xi Niang doesn't want to see Feng Gongzi, but he smiled indifferently, stuffed a piece of silver into the old bustard's hand, and said, "Another day, as long as Xi Niang is happy." ”

After receiving the money, the old bustard diligently sent Feng Gongzi out of the Closed Moon Pavilion, and her flattering voice could be heard upstairs, Xi Niang leaned on the windowsill and looked down, sneering in her heart: "It's just a scene, how can you have true feelings, Xi Niang, Xi Niang, what kind of heart do you move, go next time, I don't know if I can come back." ”

Fireworks woman, can't move the truth, Xi Niang is still burdened with Qi Hui's entrustment, she heard a few days ago that twenty years ago, there were foreigners in the capital, and the Mu family had dealings, at that time there were forces in the court trying to impeach the Mu family for collaborating with the enemy and treason, but before they could hand over the fold, the entire Mu family disappeared.

"Xi Niang, hurry up and play chess, I'm ready." The man at the table shouted.

"Master Zhang." Xi Niang stepped forward and said, "I called you up to persuade you to go home quickly. Madame is bound to be arrested, you see that you will go back early tonight and have an explanation, and it will be better to come to have a good time in the next few days? ”

Master Zhang was afraid of guilt, so he was about to run, but before leaving, he said: "My old lady has a big birthday, please come and have a glass of wine when the time comes." ”

Xi Niang's eyebrows trembled slightly, and she asked with a smile: "I'm afraid that the adults who have friends with the Zhang Mansion will dislike the lowly status of the slave family." ”

Master Zhang smiled: "Forget it, I know that I can invite you, so I can be happy, otherwise a group of old guys, who will be willing to move." When the time comes, you will give our parents faces. As he spoke, the man put down a piece of gold, and ran away at once, lest he be caught by his wife.

Xi Niang rubbed the piece of gold, and when the old bustard came in to complain, she threw it in her arms, and then said: "I will go to Zhang's Mansion to perform in a few days, but I don't see any guests these days, except for the prime minister and the son, I don't see anyone." ”

"That Feng Gongzi?"

"Who is it? How do I not recognize it? Xi Niang deliberately grabbed the white, glared at the old bustard and said, "For that person, the Prime Minister's Mansion has a lot of complaints, do you still want to live?" ”

The old bustard was so frightened that he hurriedly ran out, but he didn't know that after he was taken away, Xi Niang stood in front of the window again, always looking forward to him coming back these days, really coming back, and thinking about him leaving, what are you going to do in this land of tigers and wolves?

In the night, Mu Qing slowly walked into the darkness, and some of his subordinates followed from the shadows, and said softly: "Young master, the body of the virtuous concubine is not optimistic. ”
