Some things can't be avoided, Su Mu stood under the plane tree and hesitated for a while, then turned around and walked towards the imperial study.
As soon as they entered the door, Qin Wenliang and Du Wanqiu greeted them, now Su Mu is the emperor of Great Xia, and his status is noble, although Qin Wenliang and Du Wanqiu are modern people, after all, they have also been here for more than half a year, although they will not bow to Su Mu, but they also respect Su Mu a lot more than when they first came.
In fact, this is also what Du Wanqiu asked Qin Wenliang to do, after all, Qin Miaomiao has no news now, and here they have no power and power, and it is difficult to find the missing daughter, the so-called people are under the roof, they have to bow their heads, no matter how much they don't like this son-in-law, they have to maintain the peace on the surface.
"Su ~ Your Majesty, is there any news of Miao Miao today?" Qin Wenliang tried his best to adapt to this title, although he despised it in his heart, and even felt that it was a little ridiculous.
Su Mu has always treated them with courtesy, they are Qin Miaomiao's parents, and they must be respected and loved: "I am sending someone to look for them, and I am already trying my best to arrange the fourth and fifth brothers to assist the government, and in a few days everything is arranged, I will personally go out to find her." ”
has just ascended the throne, there are a lot of things to deal with, Su Mu has been working day and night for the past two months, and he has finally handled the political affairs in front of him, and then he plans to go out to find Qin Miaomiao's whereabouts in person.
Hearing that Su Mu was going to go out of the palace to find it in person, Du Wanqiu's eyes lit up: "Then I will go with your uncle." ”
They didn't know why Qin Miaomiao suddenly disappeared, they just thought that Qin Miaomiao had another illness and left, her temperament changed greatly when she became ill, just like another person, and it was not strange that she would run away.
Su Mu's eyes flickered, now he needs to hide his whereabouts when he leaves the palace, not publicity, and he has to travel day and night, and it is inconvenient to take the two of them with him: "This time I went out of the palace to find a horse to ride, you two don't know how to work hard I'm afraid I can't stand the hard work of this day and night, so please relax and wait in the palace." ”
This has been said very clearly, no matter what, Su Mu will not bring Qin Wenliang and his wife.
However, hearing Su Mu's refusal to recognize them as husband and wife, Du Wanqiu was resentful in her heart, her daughter suddenly disappeared, and it was already the limit that they could wait here for so long.
It's not that they won't be worried, but they are even more reluctant to admit that Qin Miaomiao will encounter accidents, so they have been comforting themselves, but the more time passes, the more they can't hold their breath.
Qin Wenliang's patience was also exhausted, and when he heard Su Mu say this, he became even more angry: "Miao Miao is our daughter, she has been missing for a long time, we can't wait any longer, if you don't take us with you, let's go out and find it ourselves!"
Regardless of the etiquette, he brought them into the palace, and Su Mu wanted to keep them by his side, otherwise he would not be familiar with the place and there would be an accident, so he would not forgive himself even more when Qin Miaomiao came back.
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, please believe me, I will definitely bring Miao Miao back safely this time." Su Mu had a hunch in his heart, Qin Miaomiao was smart and knew how to protect herself, she must be living well, and now all she had to do was to find her, ask for forgiveness, and then bring her back.
The two parties argued, and a small eunuch hurried in from outside the door, and saw Su Mu kneeling on one knee: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report." ”
Su Mu glanced at Qin Wenliang's husband: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, I have something to deal with, please go back." ”
The couple originally wanted to fight for it again, but it can be seen that Su Mu has something urgent to deal with, so he can only swallow the words that come to his mouth, and walk out of the imperial study in a huff.
Seeing the two leaving, the little eunuch didn't dare to delay, and said hurriedly: "Back to the emperor, there is news of the side concubine!" Originally, Qin Miaomiao was going to hold the phoenix seal at Su Mu's enthronement ceremony, but she disappeared before then, so the title has not had time to be changed, and the little eunuch can only call her the original title.
"Say!" Su Mu couldn't wait to lift the little eunuch from the ground and pull him to him, he had been sitting on pins and needles for the past two months, and today he finally had news about Qin Miaomiao, how could he not be in a hurry.
The little eunuch swallowed his saliva secretly, obviously Su Mu's actions made him a little scared, and he said with a frightened face: "If you go back to the emperor, someone will come back and say that someone in the prince's mansion in Daliang once saw the side concubine two months ago." ”
Su Mu's expression changed and changed, Daliang Prince's Mansion? It's Gu Chonglou again!
"Hurry up and go into the house to investigate." Su Mu's already flustered heart was in a mess at this time, and the scene of that day appeared in front of his eyes again, Qin Miaomiao ran towards him, and Gu Chonglou took a bow and arrows behind her~
Seeing Su Mu's unkind face, the little eunuch took two steps back tremblingly: "Back to the emperor, the spies have already entered the Daliang Prince's Mansion, but the prince has already gone to sea with nearly a hundred subordinates and two big ships two days after the side concubine appeared, that is, two months ago. According to speculation, the reason why we have not been able to find the side concubine is very willing is because the side concubine is also on the ship, and she went to sea with the prince of Daliang. ”
Su Mu stood in place in a daze, and agreed with this statement very much in his heart, no wonder he couldn't find Qin Miaomiao, it seems that this guess is very true!
"Inform the fourth and fifth princes to come to see me! And inform to go down and prepare the ship. "Now that there is Qin Miaomiao's traces, Su Mu can't wait for a moment.
Qin Miaomiao is better with others, but with Gu Chonglou, he is absolutely not at ease.
Gu Chonglou is a ruthless wolf, he has hurt Qin Miaomiao and her family several times, and he must find her as soon as possible.
Su Yu had just returned home, but he was hurriedly called back to the palace by Su Mu.
Looking at the five princes who came with them, the two couldn't help but be surprised: "Fifth brother, do you know what the imperial brother is calling us so anxious about?" ”
The fifth prince also looked ignorant: "I don't know, will it be a matter of the Western Regions fief again?" ”
Since the king of the Western Regions was killed by Su Mu, Su Mu wanted to give the Western Regions as a fief to their uncle King Funing at the beginning.
His uncle was loose by nature, not happy with power, and had been living outside, so Su Mu was relieved to give him the Western Regions as a fief.
But Su Mu's doing this caused a lot of ministers to be dissatisfied, although the Western Regions is a barbarian land, and the materials are not rich, but after all, the land is vast, and the reward for the fief to a prince seems to be a little too big.
And King Funing has no ambition now, which does not mean that he will not have a fief after he gets it, so for the sake of insurance, the ministers have been admonishing and asking Su Mu to detain King Funing's son-in-law in the capital Chang'an.
But the beloved son of the king of Funing couldn't bear to let his son suffer this sin, so he boldly asked for his life and said that if the emperor wanted to leave his son in the capital, then he would rather give up the fiefdom of the Western Regions and continue to be his idle prince.
But the Tiangao Emperor is far away, and there is no one more suitable to go to the Western Regions to garrison than him, so Su Mu is also in a dilemma for a while.
This morning, the ministers of the court had a dispute over this matter, so Su Yu and the fifth prince felt that Su Mu was in a hurry to find the two of them because of this matter.
When they arrived at the imperial study, Su Mu had already put away his anxious and flustered expression: "Fourth brother and fifth brother, I came to you today because I have an urgent matter to explain to the two of you. ”
"Brother Huang, but it's because of the fiefdom of the Western Regions?" The five princes have a straightforward personality and always say whatever they want.
Su Mu was stunned for a moment when he asked his words, and then stood up from his chair: "It's not about this, I have more important things to entrust to the two of you to deal with." ”
Su Yu has been secretly observing since he entered the door, although Su Mu deliberately concealed it, he could still see his anxiety, and there was only one person who could make his always calm and calm imperial brother mess up, and that was Qin Miaomiao, who had been missing for a long time.
"Brother Huang, but is there a whereabouts of the imperial sister-in-law?" In Su Yu's words, he guessed exactly the same.
Su Mu didn't want to hide it from the two of them, of course, he couldn't hide it if he wanted to, he was afraid that it would be a few months long, and their brothers would take care of the affairs in Great Xia, so he naturally wanted to tell them clearly where he was going.
"I've been able to find a trace, and I'm going to find her myself......"
"How long will it take for the imperial brother to go here?" The country can't be left without an owner for a day, but Su Yu knows Qin Miaomiao's position in Su Mu's heart, so naturally he can't stop it, and he can only make a decision.
Su Mu hesitated, and after a while, he said, "About two months......
"What? Brother Huang is going to be gone for so long? What should I do about the court? "The fifth prince has a rough personality and doesn't know much about love and love, so he can't understand Su Mu's actions.
As the king of a country, it takes two months to leave as soon as he leaves, which is really a bit unreasonable.
Su Yu gently tugged at the sleeve of the fifth prince, signaling him not to talk nonsense, who can stop Su Muxia's decision?
It's just that before leaving, he still has to explain the matter in front of him: "The urgent need of the imperial brother now is the matter of the fiefdom of the Western Regions, you still have to make a decision before leaving!" ”
It seems to be an extremely tricky matter, Su Mu has actually already thought of a solution: "Since the imperial uncle is unwilling to go to the fiefdom, then pick a few capable ministers, take turns to serve, take one year as the deadline, and return to Beijing at the end of the period." ”
Su Yu's eyebrows jumped, and his heart was relieved, it is indeed a good way, the period of one year is not long, but it is not short. But if someone moves some crooked thoughts, it is indeed too late, even if someone is patient, but he doesn't know when it will be his turn to serve next time, so it is much more wonderful than fixing one person to garrison the fiefdom: "Is there a candidate in the heart of the imperial brother?" ”
Mu pondered for a moment: "There is a man in the ministry whose name is Chen Yuanbo, and he is competent." ”
Speaking of Chen Yuanbo, although Su Mu had little contact with him, Su Mu had already seen that he was a pillar.
