"Why didn't you even say a word of inform, so you took it personally? It's just a matter of killing someone, and you haven't killed it before you get caught! โ
Mu Cong couldn't help but be stunned.
Isn't that voice my own mother......
Homicide?
Do it?
Mu Cong only felt that his heart was a little chaotic, his heart was pounding, and he didn't even have the strength to escape at the moment, so he just stood in place.
The person who was reprimanded by the Queen Mother sneered: "The Queen Mother is indecisive and can't do anything, so how can she be merciful if she wants to completely eradicate Mu Qing?" I have sent someone to destroy all the evidence that Murong Xi has obtained, and she can't do anything about it! โ
"If we're not careful, we'll end up in a situation from which we'll never recover!"
"But if Mu Qing doesn't die, Mu Cong will never get a secure throne!"
Mu Cong, who was suddenly nominated, was frightened, and only gritted his teeth and rushed outside desperately. The weeds cut through his white and tender cheeks, and Mu Cong only gritted the crown of his teeth and wiped the tears from his cheeks.
Uncle Huang is ...... because of himself
โฆโฆ
Mu Qing's body gradually improved, but the little emperor was depressed all day long and couldn't lift his spirits. Murong Xi was worried in his heart and wanted to visit, but he found that the little guy like a bun was hiding from him, and he couldn't help but be suspicious.
Later, snow fell in the imperial city, and it was time for the Chinese New Year.
The little emperor sat alone on the steps in front of the Heart Cultivation Hall to enjoy the snow, his hands on his cheeks, and his bright yellow gown made him look like a fair-skinned porcelain doll. Suddenly, a snow-white object suddenly burst out of the snow.
The people around were all startled, and they hurriedly stepped forward to escort the car, and saw the snow-white ball shaking the hair on its body, revealing a pink and tender mouth and calling at Mu Cong twice.
Mu Cong's eyes lit up: "Xiaotian! โ
"Whew~!"
The mastiff flew into Mu Cong's arms, stretched out his big pink tongue and licked his cheeks, making half of his face wet. The eunuch and palace maid on the side looked at the mastiff's blood basin and was frightened, but she didn't dare to step forward and separate it from the little emperor.
Xiaotian sat beside Mu Cong obediently.
"I haven't seen you for so long, are you angry with me?" Mu Cong's eyes were dyed with a little sadness, and the mastiff also choked with sadness, and turned his head to the other side in dissatisfaction.
Mu Cong only stretched out his hand and hugged Xiaotian into his arms.
"Xiaotian, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to......"
"It's just that I don't dare to go to Sister Fox Fairy...... I'm afraid I'll kill her for my own reasons......" Mu Cong's tone was a little more lonely, and the mastiff on his side stuck out his tongue and licked his cheek, and put his head on Mu Cong's knee.
"Do you think it's good to be an emperor?"
The mastiff on his body couldn't talk, Mu Cong only said to himself: "I'm so tired, I'm really tired......"
"Ah, I forgot, the emperor can't say tired."
Mu Cong lowered his eyes, only quietly grabbed the hem of his clothes, and suddenly looked at the mastiff beside him with a look of hope, and said, "Xiaotian, do you think I can protect the people I care about." โ
"Wang!"
Mu Cong suddenly raised his lips and smiled, even his eyes were dyed with a smile, he raised his hand to cling to the fluff on Xiaotian's neck, and buried his little face like a bun in it.
I am the emperor, and my father said that there is nothing that the emperor cannot do.
โฆโฆ
The recital in the imperial study was reached out by the little emperor and touched the ground, and the sound of crackling and falling made the palace maids around him kneel down violently. Mu Qing was stunned and looked over: "Your Majesty? โ
The little emperor casually picked up an uncorrected fold from the ground, flipped through it vigorously, and then gritted his teeth and fell out, a pair of eyebrows frowned, and his eyes widened.
"I can't do this at all, you've disappointed me so much!"
Mu Qing only looked over in a daze.
The little emperor in front of him pretended to be annoyed, his cheeks flushed, and he looked very jerky like his father was angry, and the slight tremor in his fingertips revealed his current state of mind that he couldn't bear to be entangled.
"Someone! Imprison the regent in the Imperial Study! โ
The soldiers at the door looked at each other, only hesitated to step forward, and saw the little emperor walking away, so he brought the door of the imperial study. Murong Xi was dumbfounded, suspicious of the little emperor's sudden approach.
As night fell, Murong Xi and Mu Qing were locked in the imperial study. In the dead of night, suddenly there was a sound in the back wall, and the two of them looked up and saw a small figure suddenly come out from behind the curtain.
"Your Majesty?!"
"Uncle Huang......" Mu Cong blinked his eyes, his eyes were full of grievances and fear, and he ran over with a pair of bare feet and rushed into Mu Qing's arms, refusing to let go, "Uncle Huang, I didn't mean to......"
"I just want to protect you......"
Seeing the bitter and aggrieved look of the person in front of him, Mu Qing only felt a softness in his heart, and raised his hand to hug his fragrant and soft body.
"Uncle Huang! You believe that I am the emperor, and I will definitely protect you! The little emperor like a bun raised a fleshy little face, blinked a pair of eyes as bright as stars, and looked at the person in front of him with a smile and determination.
Mu Qing was stunned, his heart was choked, although he didn't need a child to protect him, he still felt warm because of the love and touching in his heart.
Murong Xi saw the happy appearance of his uncle and nephew from a distance, and he was relieved.
"Uncle Huang is still busy with government officials, so it's better for Sister Fox Fairy to accompany Your Majesty first." Murong Xi lifted the hem of his skirt and stepped forward, handed over the osmanthus cake in his hand, the little emperor blinked his eyes and glanced back at Mu Qing.
Mu Qing exchanged glances with her, and pointed to the folds in front of her that had been folded into a small mountain because they had not been dealt with during the day. The little emperor lowered his head stupidly and sat with Murong Xi at the door of the imperial study.
The villain in front of him was well-behaved and sensible, his fleshy little hands dragged his cheeks, and a pair of eyes looked directly at Mu Qing. The moonlight scattered on his long eyelashes, jumping and dancing in the blink of an eye.
Murong Xi pulled the hem of his skirt and sat aside, and the little emperor muttered, "Do you like Uncle Huang?" โ
Murong Xi was stunned, but said firmly with red cheeks: "I like it." โ
"I like it too." Mu Cong raised her eyes, looked straight at her with a pair of eyes, stretched out her fleshy little hand and grabbed hers, and said, "I also like Sister Fox Fairy, so you must be good." โ
"I'll grow up quickly so I can protect you."
The corners of Murong Xi's lips raised a smile, and he only raised his hand to rub his hair, and saw that the little emperor's eyes changed from firm to flustered, so he burst out laughing and hugged him tightly into his arms: "With your protection, we will all be very relieved." โ
Mu Cong was silent for a moment, only talking about burying her head in her arms.
"Actually, I'm scared."
Mu Cong's voice sounded muffled.
"I'm afraid that I can't do it well and I won't be able to protect you...... I am afraid that you will leave, and I want you to go away and ignore all the disputes. Mu Cong's voice was very low, which made people a little inaudible, and it seemed a little more lonely.
Murong Xi felt a little sorry for the child in his arms, so he only reached out and touched his sideburns, and said, "Don't worry, we will also try to protect ourselves." โ
"We'll be with you always."
On the second day, Mu Qing was still grounded, and a large number of folds were piled in, waiting for Mu Qing to deal with it.
During the day, the little emperor always competed with him for various reasons, and the time by Mu Qing's side increased day by day, and even ate and drink together, so he even moved to the imperial study at night.
Mu Qing knew that he was trying to protect himself, and he didn't want to show too much affection to arouse suspicion, so he only cooperated secretly, and others tacitly saw it in their eyes, all thinking that Mu Cong was joking.
The Queen Mother saw it in her eyes but couldn't speak, so she summoned the Taifu and Mu Cong to Changchun Palace together.
"Your Majesty, have you fallen behind a lot of homework in the past few days?" The Queen Mother quietly glared at the Taifu on the side, hearing this, thinking of what the emperor had done recently, the Taifu knelt down violently and called the old minister to die.
"Your Majesty, learning the government is not a day's work, and you need to study hard to achieve great things." The Queen Mother persuaded her bitterly, but Mu Cong couldn't listen to it at all.
Since that day, he overheard the Queen Mother's conspiracy with others, and he has become estranged from the person in front of him who is not his biological mother, and he only wants to stay away.
Although Mu Cong is smart, he is a child's heart, and he is naturally easy to expose his emotions, and he is afraid that the Queen Mother will find out what he has done, so he doesn't dare to think about it and say bluntly: "My homework has not been left behind, only, I only want to be more familiar with current affairs in recent days, so I often run out!" โ
"Nonsense!" The Queen Mother drank loudly, and glared at Mu Cong with a pair of eyes.
"The mourning family knows that you are close to the regent, but as the lord of a country, how can you mix with him all day long?"
"I'm ......!" Mu Cong gritted his teeth, afraid that the Queen Mother would harm Mu Qing's words, he almost said it, but he gritted his teeth and swallowed back the words in his mouth, and said, "I really like Uncle Huang, I hope Uncle Huang is well." โ
"Queen Mother, I am the emperor."
"Uncle Huang has never been the person you think."
The Queen Mother's lips squirmed, and she wanted to open her mouth but hesitated, and only ordered the emperor to be grounded and thought about it. Mu Qing, who was 'under house arrest' in Mu Cong's imperial study, was transferred to the Regent's Mansion.
Mu Cong didn't come in the middle of the night, which made the two of them worry about abnormality, lest something happen, and it was not easy to inquire. Later, the two were unexpectedly released.
I heard that the emperor had been kneeling in front of Changchun Palace, until he had a fever at night, which made the queen mother's heart soften. The news of the regent's intimacy with the emperor spread, and the queen mother could not continue to be embarrassed, so she had to release it.
Seeing the weak little emperor on the sickbed, Murong Xi was worried in his heart, and stayed in the Heart Cultivation Hall to take care of him.
On the way back, Murong Xi suddenly fainted, and the maidservant who followed all the way shouted for help, and was sent to the Chuxiu Palace where Lin Xuanying once lived.
The imperial doctor went back and forth, and Mu Qing and Mu Cong stayed by the bed.
The old lady was nervous in her heart, and only stretched out her hand to check her pulse tremblingly.
"Doctor! Ah Xi she ......"
The old lady wrinkled her eyebrows, lifted the hem of her clothes and knelt tremblingly.
