Chapter 62: The Chaotic Court

There are two flowers, one on each branch.

Jin Luan Palace, in the early dynasty, the ministers looked at Wang Zixuan, who was standing on the side of the emperor, and did not dare to speak, a middle-aged man in armor and full of grandeur stood under His Royal Highness Jin Luan, his eyes looked at Wang Zixuan fiercely, and the sword light and sword rain in a pair of crystal eyes almost swallowed Wang Zixuan alive.

"Wang Zixuan, this king's beloved daughter disappeared in the hunting ground, and you are in charge of the hunting ground, didn't you find out at that time?"

This is the Marquis Mu Ao of Zhenyuan who hurried back from the border pass, and the border pass has just been victorious, but he received news that his baby daughter Mu Qing went to the autumn festival to hunt and never returned. This is a bad thing for Mu Ao, he has been a golden iron horse in his life, and he only got such a beloved daughter at the age of forty, and now his beloved daughter has just reached the end of the year, and she is not married yet, how can you say that she will lose it?

There were so many guards at the Autumn Festival, and no one noticed that she was gone!

"Master Hou, don't worry, the prime minister has sent someone to find it, I believe that Mu Niangzi will be found in a short time."

It was not easy to comfort the queen mother who was crazy because of the prince's injury, and there was another Mu Ao, although Wang Zixuan was not afraid of him, but he had been guarding the border for so many years, and there were still 100,000 elite soldiers in his hands.

The autumn festival is in chaos like that, who can still notice Mu Qing?

"Master Hou, don't worry, what did the accompanying maid say?" It was Old Man Chen who spoke, he had already heard that this Mu Qing had a good relationship with his granddaughter, Chu Nian had greeted him when he left, he wouldn't be worried, but why did Mu Qing lose it? Could it be that this is also part of the little girl's plan?

Mu Ao was respectful to Old Man Chen, "The little girl was spoiled, saying that she met Chu Sanniang, so she threw her subordinates away, and then she participated in that equestrian competition, and she hasn't seen her since." ”

As he spoke, his gaze swept over Wang Zixuan and fell on Shen Dui, who was silent on the side, "I heard that Shen Erniang has to compete, Shen Dui, what do you think?" ”

Shen Dui came back to his senses, glanced up at Mu Ao, then lowered his head and said, "The sister was too willful and collided with Mu Niangzi, but before Chu Sanniang's horse got out of control, the sister came back and didn't know about it." ”

Mu Ao's eyes fell coldly on his face, as if he wanted to see him through, and in an instant, a murderous aura emanated from Mu Ao's body, so suppressed that only silence remained in the entire court.

Liu Qi, who was on the side, excused Shen Du under pressure and said, "Master Hou, the lower official can testify, and the lower official was in Lord Shen's account at that time. ”

The murderous aura that permeated the entire court was finally taken back, Mu Ao looked at Wang Zixuan expressionlessly, and at this time, Zhuo Zijin, the general doctor, spoke: "Master Hou, this matter is completely no wonder the Prime Minister, the lower officials heard from the family members who went to the autumn festival that Mu Niangzi chased Chu Sanniang away, at that time, because of Chu Sanniang's matter, the hunting ground was in chaos, and it was understandable that the guards didn't notice it." ”

Pardonable?

Mu Ao looked at Zhuo Zijin coldly, and his voice was langlang, "Heh, if it is your family members who are lost, can you still say that it is excusable?" Zhuo Zijin, you are really loyal to the Prime Minister. ”

Zhuo Zijin just wanted to help Wang Zixuan exonerate and sell a good job, but he didn't expect Mu Ao to transfer the hostility to himself, at this moment Mu Ao's murderous aura emanated again, saying that it was a general doctor, where could he stand this murderous aura sharpened on the battlefield? Suddenly, he lowered his head with a pale face, and didn't dare to say anything more.

Seeing that Zhuo Zijin was defeated, Wang Zixuan's eyes swept over him and fell on Mu Ao's body, "Master Hou, this matter will be handled by itself, but Master Hou, what should be the crime of entering Beijing without an edict?" ”

Want to spread wild on his Wang Zixuan's head, and don't look at what his identity is?

"This king's crime will be borne by this king, and it will be at the disposal of the prime minister, but if something goes wrong with this king's beloved daughter......" Mu Ao's eyes with a sparkle of essence fell on Wang Zixuan's face, "I hope that the prime minister will speak his mind." ”

After finishing speaking, he snorted coldly, and without waiting for Wang Zixuan's reaction, he turned around and walked out of the Jinluan Palace.

Wang Zixuan gritted his teeth angrily, since the Su family was destroyed, who else dared to argue with him like this? A small town far away is also reversed!

Early in the morning, the early dynasty naturally broke up unhappily, Old Man Chen went back to Chen's house, but found that the angry Marquis of Zhenyuan was waiting for him in his house at the moment, seeing that his menacing appearance had not been taken back, Old Man Chen knew that this was the trouble caused by his granddaughter.

Because they were all neutrals, Mu Ao was quite respectful to Old Man Chen, and when he saw Old Man Chen, he got up expressionlessly and said, "Lord Chen." ”

"Master Hou." Old man Chen returned the salute, and sat back on the main seat, "Master Hou is here today, but he wants to ask about Nian'er?" ”

Marquis Zhenyuan squinted at him slightly, and the answer was self-evident.

Old man Chen took a sip of warm tea before he thought about it and said: "That's the case, Nian'er Ma Er went crazy and disappeared, and the lower official was also very anxious, and he had already sent someone to find it, so don't worry, according to the old minister, the two children should be together." ”

"The third lady is lost, Lord Chen is not in a hurry at all?" Marquis Zhenyuan was not in a hurry to find his daughter at this time, but just looked at Old Man Chen inquiringly, as if he wanted to see through Old Man Chen.

Old man Chen was stared at by his sharp eyes and sweated on his forehead, if it weren't for Chu Nianqian's instructions to keep him secret, he would almost blurt out.

"Haha...... This is not that someone has been sent to find it, and besides, the person was lost by Wang Zixuan, and Wang Zixuan will definitely take responsibility to find the person back, otherwise...... Lao Chen fought hard for this old life, and he also wanted him to look good! The last sentence has a little confidence, these traitorous ministers have been enlightened, these loyal ministers have been suppressed by the Wang family and can't raise their heads, the anger suppressed in Old Man Chen's heart is definitely more than a half, and it is absolutely sincere to try his best to pull Wang Zixuan off the horse.

Seeing Old Man Chen like this, Marquis Zhenyuan believed it a little, nodded slowly, and said: "But Wang Zixuan can't be trusted, we can't count on him, so we still have to send someone to find it ourselves." ”

Old man Chen panicked, he knew that this disappearance was a bureau under Chu Nianbu, if he asked the Marquis of Zhenyuan to investigate, what if he found out what was good?

So he had to frown and said: "The old minister thinks that Wang Zixuan should not dare to be lazy, the old minister will not be arrogant, his protΓ©gΓ©s are innumerable, and there are 100,000 elite soldiers under the Hou Ye, forgive him and dare not do anything, but the Hou Ye, you have given Wang Zixuan a handle when you enter Beijing without an edict, if he grabs this handle and does not let go, the Hou Ye will go to investigate this matter and be criticized again, and if no one can be found, wouldn't it be the Hou Ye himself?" ”

When the words fell, the Marquis of Zhenyuan was thoughtful, Old Man Chen knew that he had listened to the words, so he was glad that he was a literati, and this three-inch tongue was still somewhat useful, but the girl from the Mu family really walked with Nian'er? Why didn't Nian'er talk to him?

With Old Man Chen's understanding of his granddaughter, this granddaughter is definitely not such a careless person, if Mu Qing is really with her, she will at least inform her, why did it cause such a mess of things, is it difficult...... What happened to those two girls outside, so they couldn't tell them?

Thinking of this, Old Man Chen panicked for no reason, his hand holding the teacup shook slightly, and the tea was sprinkled all over the ground, and the Marquis of Zhenyuan looked at him like this, and his face sank, "What's wrong with Lord Chen?" ”

When he came back to his senses, he looked at the face of the Yuanhou of Shangzhen, and the old man Chen secretly complained, but he also pretended to be calm: "Recently, I have stayed up late reading and read too much, my body is weak, and I am getting old. ”

Marquis Zhenyuan looked at Old Man Chen suspiciously, and after a while, he frowned and said, "Lord Chen can be said to be the most knowledgeable person in Da Liang, so there is no need to work so hard." ”

"Haha...... Live to learn and learn, and learn endlessly......"

Before he finished making up the ancient sayings, he saw the Marquis of Zhenyuan standing up, "It's not early, and I'm still waiting for news from this king in the house, and I'll come to visit Lord Chen another day." ”

Old man Chen breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, the old minister respectfully sends off the Hou Ye." ”

After sending away the Marquis of Zhenyuan, Old Man Chen hurriedly poured a few sips of tea, at this time, it happened that Mrs. Chen passed by the window of the study, and saw Old Man Chen's weak appearance, and suddenly wondered: "Father, what's wrong?" But the Marquis of Zhenyuan has made things difficult for you? ”

Old man Chen came back to his senses, remembered his doubts, and couldn't help but indulge in his face and said, "Did Nian'er mention to you where she was going?" ”

Married to the Chen family for so many years, Mrs. Chen, who has been in charge of the Chen family, knows her husband and father-in-law very well, and the old man Chen was not in shape in the past, but once he became serious, something big must have happened, so he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and said: "My daughter-in-law seems to have heard that she is going to find someone." ”

Old Man Chen frowned, lowered his head and pondered, "Looking for someone?" Did she send a letter back recently? ”

Mrs. Chen shook her head, and Old Man Chen sighed, "This girl is really ......"

Seeing that Old Man Chen was tired, Mrs. Chen said suspiciously: "Father, something happened to Nian'er?" ”

"It's nothing, you go and get busy with yours, remember not to tell others about this time."

Mrs. Chen looked at Old Man Chen suspiciously, but she didn't dare to disobey, so she had to nod and retreat.

After Mrs. Chen took the people away, the old man Chen retreated, and he was alone in the study to meditate, and the night was silent, at this time, the candle flame suddenly stirred for a moment, and everything was calm.

Old man Chen frowned and looked at the note posted on the door of the study at some point, and the old hand trembled and removed the note.

"The lady of the Mu family and Chu Sanniang temporarily live in the humble house, and I specially invite Lord Chen to be a guest alone at midnight, and the contemptible people will welcome the big shelf."

The handwriting on the note was extremely sloppy, and the address was attached to the back, Old Man Chen turned the note over in a panic, but saw four strong and powerful characters: "The old house of the Su family." ”

Old man Chen's hand shook, and the note fell, and he hurriedly bent down to pick it up and stuffed it into his arms.

At the same time, on Yuhang Mountain, Chu Nian was invited into the house, only to see that the wooden house was plainly furnished, in the center of the room was a square table, with two Taishi chairs placed next to the table, and a huge blue and white porcelain vase next to it.

Chu Nian's attention was attracted by the portrait hanging next to the blue and white porcelain vase, in which was a woman, with a slight resemblance to Mrs. Sui between her eyebrows and eyes, but she was wearing a yellow silk cotton skirt and a hanging laurel bun, she was in a peach wild flower bush, smiling like a flower.

This painting is unsigned, but the painting is extremely delicate, and if it comes out, it will surely attract the attention of literati and artists.
