Chapter 1: Enthronement

Next Chapter

The winter is cold, and the fine snow envelops the entire imperial city in it.

At noon, in the Broken Hung Pavilion.

Mu Jingxian held the scroll wine bottle in his hand, bent one leg and listened idly to the sound of drums and pianos outside the window.

Yun Lianxiao, he finally sat on the dragon chair.

"The emperor drove to ......"

After a long time, the eunuch's sharp and rapid voice drifted into the door.

When Mu Jingxian looked back and got up, a bright yellow figure was reflected in the Broken Hung Pavilion, and it was clear everywhere.

"Your Majesty." Mu Jingxian knelt on the ground to give a salute, and it was still a man's courtesy.

Yun Lianxiao's face was pale, "Calm down." ”

Mu raised his eyes.

Yun Lianxiao's eyes were slightly amazed, but it was fleeting, "Mu Jingxian, I have thought about you changing into palace clothes countless times, but I never thought that it was really a bit of a posture. ”

"The emperor has won the award." Mu Jingxian's cheeks were slightly hot.

Even if she knew that Yun Lianxiao came today just to give her a death, she was still moved in the face of his praise.

Three days ago, as his first lieutenant, she led the army into the capital and took the throne for him.

That night, the other five generals except her were all in the palace, and she knew then that she would not live long.

Yun Lianxiao raised his hand, grabbed a strand of hair hanging from her shoulders and stroked it gently, his face was dark and uncertain.

"Mu Jingxian, the widow is here today to tell you a news."

Mu Jingxian smiled, but his eyebrows and eyes were full of desolation, "The emperor is here to inform me that it is time to accompany those soldiers who were born and died together on the road." ”

Yun Lianxiao's face sank, and he pinched her shoulder, causing her to frown slightly.

"I know you're dissatisfied, but I have to do it, and the only people closest to me can hurt me, so I can't keep any of them."

"So, including me?"

For three years, she was his lieutenant general for three years, fighting on the battlefield for him in the border area, and she almost didn't have a good skin and bones.

In the fierce battle half a year ago, she blocked a fatal arrow for him, and he promised her in public that he would share the great rivers and mountains with her after he ascended the throne.

also secretly promised her when she first woke up in a coma that on the day of the founding of the country, she would not only be allowed to regain her daughter's body, but also let her take off her battle robe and put on a phoenix robe.

Oh, how could she believe it?

She was so confused that she never thought that his accession to the throne would be her death.

Mu Jingxian closed his eyes, and his heart was pierced as painful.

As he said, the only person who hurts himself the most can be the person closest to him.

Yun Lianxiao stared at her lifeless face, "I want to tell you that Yun Liancang has escaped...... If you tell me where he is hiding, I will spare you death. ”

Mu Jingxian's eyebrows moved slightly, "I don't know." ”

"I don't know? Before the war, you begged me personally, and after seizing the throne, you wanted to release the crown prince Yun Liancang, did you forget? You were obviously afraid that I would regret it, so you handed him the news early and let him escape. ”

Mu Jingxian smiled bitterly.

"The emperor has promised that the last general can let the clouds go to life, so why should he be held accountable for his escape?"

"Letting him go, it's not the same as letting him run away."

Yun Lian shook Mu Jingxian to the ground.

He and Yun Liancang were cousins, when Cang's father won the battle for the throne, exiled Yun Lianxiao's family and suffered a lot, and Yun Lianxiao's parents died with hatred in less than half a year.

Yun Lianxiao held back for eight years before returning to Beijing to take the throne.

Let Cang go, he can still monitor Cang's every move, but now that Cang has escaped, with his understanding of Cang, Cang will inevitably not be as brave as he was back then, and sooner or later he will come back to seize the throne.

Mu Jingxian saw a trace of anger mixed with fear in Yun Lianxiao's eyes.

She instantly understood where Yun Lianxiao's fear came from.

"Huh." She chuckled to hide the pain of the serious injury on her back three days ago.

His eyes wandered, and he said: "Yun Liancang just had a drop of water to me a few years ago, and the emperor thinks that I can betray the faith between you and me for his kindness?" ”

Yun Lianxiao was enraged by her contemptuous smile, and murderous aura surged on his noble face, which made his father-in-law who was listening to the wind outside the door tremble.

"The grace of dripping? Mu Jingxian, do you really think that I don't know that your father is Mu Buqing, the general who founded the country for my uncle, and you are also the crown princess that my uncle once pointed out to his son Yun Liancang? ”
