"Knock, knock, knock"

On the street, a dull and powerful bell rang out, and people walking on the street stopped and looked up in a certain direction.

Su Muge's eyes were slightly suspicious. "Where did the bell come from?"

"It's the Divine Bell that has rang, the Divine Bell has rang!"

I don't know who shouted such a sentence among the people, and the people on the street instantly boiled.

"What is the Divine Clock?" Su Muge was even more puzzled.

Su Muge was originally muttering, but Xinlan listened to it. "The eldest lady doesn't know the god clock?"

Su Muge shook his head. "What's that?"

"It's not surprising that the eldest lady doesn't know, the slave maid also heard that people only knew, I heard that this divine bell was made by the founding emperor of Chu after asking the gods, and said that it could be connected to the gods, and now that the divine bell rings, the gods must have instructed!"

Su Muge looked at the irrepressible excitement on Xinlan's face, admired and revered, silently opened his small purse, grabbed a little melon seed from it and swallowed it.

She really didn't have much interest in these ghosts and gods, even though she was an outlier herself, but she felt in her heart that she would always be able to explain it with science in the future.

The news of the ringing of the divine bell spread in the capital like a locust transiting, and everyone was curious about what the divine decree that was about to descend on the head of the Chu State was.

Big up.

"Your Majesty, there must be a divine decree when this divine bell rings, and the minister must open the altar to worship the heavens and ask for a divine decree." An old minister with gray hair knelt down in the hall and said loudly.

Xiahou Rui, who was dressed in a dragon robe, sat high on the dragon chair, and when the divine bell rang, he heard it for the first time.

According to the national history of the Chu State, the last time this divine bell rang was a hundred years ago, which can be said to be a rare good thing in a hundred years.

Every reigning emperor of Chu wants this divine bell to ring.

Xia Hourui nodded. "What Lord Fang said is that Si Tianjian has chosen the nearest auspicious day, and I want to sacrifice to the heavens and ask the gods for the decree."

Si Tianjian hurriedly stepped forward to receive the order. "Obey."

After going down, Xiahou Rui was in a very good mood and went to the palace of Concubine Qin.

"The concubines see the emperor."

got the news that Xiahou Rui was coming here, and Concubine Qin had already asked people to prepare everything.

"No need to be polite, get up."

"Your Majesty."

Concubine Qin stepped forward and helped Xiahou Rui to sit down on the chair.

"The divine bell rings, auspicious clouds descend from the sky in the Chu State, and the concubines congratulate the emperor in advance."

"Hahahaha." Xiahou Rui pulled Concubine Qin into his arms and put his fingertips on her red lips. "I just like the sweet mouth of the concubine!"

Concubine Qin glanced at Xiahou Rui and leaned into his arms.

"The emperor is happy, but the concubines have been worried about something."

"Oh? What worries Concubine Ai? ”

Concubine Qin sighed helplessly. "The emperor also knows that Kun'er is not young now, but there is still no one in the backyard who can preside over the overall situation, and the concubine thinks, is it time to marry Kun'er?"

The smile on Xiahou Rui's face remained unchanged when he heard this, and he nodded approvingly. "Concubine Ai is right, I was unwell some time ago, so I neglected this matter."

Xiahou Ruisheng has a lot of sons, but there are only a few of them, but these few have not been married after Double Ten, resulting in many sons in the capital's powerful mansions who are not satisfied with Double Ten dare not marry.

"The emperor is busy with state affairs, so you can do everything wherever you can."

"Is there a candidate for the concubine?"

Concubine Qin summoned the palace maid and put an album on the table.

"These are unmarried women who have never been married when the concubines have nothing to do."

Xiahou Rui flipped through it casually, and the ones in front of him were all the daughters or second daughters of the ministers' mansions above the third grade, and their status was not low.

"Who does Concubine Ai fancie?"

Concubine Qin secretly glanced at Xiahou Rui, and saw that he always had a faint smile on his face before saying: "The concubine thinks that Meng Shushu, the young lady of the Meng Mansion, is a good one, not only proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also dignified and generous, worthy of the position of the concubine, what does the emperor think?" ”

The daughter of a scholar of Hanlin Academy is matched with Xiahou Kun, and she can naturally afford it.

"Hmm." Xiahou Rui responded dispensably.

"As for this concubine, the concubine thinks that the young sister of General Weizhen's Lin Mansion is good."

Hearing this, the smile on Xiahou Rui's face slowly fell, and his expression was a little obscure.

One is on one side, one is one and one is martial, Qin Guifei's calculation is very good, after marrying Xiahou Kun, it is equivalent to the entire family behind her standing on Xiahou Kun's side, which is also equivalent to his future help.

He is not dead yet, he is thinking about how to encircle the forces of the DPRK in the future!

The aura around Xiahou Rui's body instantly cooled.

Qin Guifei is not stupid, how can she not feel his changes. Although she didn't know why Xia Hourui was suddenly unhappy, she quickly reacted and exposed the topic, which eased Xiahou Rui's cold breath a little.

It wasn't until Xiahou Rui left that Concubine Qin Guifei breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mama An, did this palace say the wrong thing just now?"

Mama Ann handed her the hot tea. "Where would a mother say the wrong thing." It's just too much of a hurry.

When Xiahou Rui asked Qin Guifei about the candidate, Qin Guifei should not have said her real intentions, after all, the emperor's body is not comparable to the past, and it is not a problem to live for another ten years......

"This matter is still handled by the emperor."

Concubine Qin is not stupid, as soon as she heard Mama An's words, she understood that she was indeed in a hurry!

After Xiahou Rui came out of Concubine Qin, he went to the imperial study.

Gonggong Yi looked at Xiahou Rui, who was pacing in the imperial study, and endured for a while, but he couldn't help but speak: "Your Majesty, why don't you rest for a while?" ”

Xiahou Rui stopped, looked at Father-in-law Yi, saw that Father-in-law Yi already had gray hair on his sideburns, and suddenly smiled: "Father-in-law Yi, it seems that I am old." ”

When Father-in-law Yi heard this, he hurriedly picked up good words and said.

Xia Hourui waved his hand. "I thought that when the limit was reached, my heart would be relaxed, but now I feel that my spirit is full every day, so I think about the matter of Lichu and take it slowly, but ah, I can wait, some people, but I don't want to wait......"

Father-in-law Yi's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly lowered his head, he couldn't answer this, and he couldn't answer it.

"I think Su Muge and Kun'er are good......"

Gonggong Yi was stunned for a moment, and matched Su Muge with Xiahou Kun?

Xia Hourui seemed to think that this idea was very good. "Go and call me Kun'er."

"Yes."

"Wait, this is getting closer and closer, let Mo'er go and bring the queen mother back."

Didn't the second prince pick it up in previous years? Father-in-law Yi didn't dare to ask this, and obediently took the order and retreated.

……

Inside the Sioux house.

Su Mu is tinkering with medicinal herbs, and she now plans to make more medicines while she has time.

Because, she needs a sustainable income!

Although she has a lot of rewards from the palace, but those things can't be sold at all, she has spent more money recently, and she still has money in her hands, but she can't sit back and eat like this.

"Miss, you can rest for a while, it's been all morning." Yueru looked at Su Muge's tinkered black little hands, and her face was full of distress.

"It's not a big job, it's good for your body to be active."

"Miss, all the medicinal herbs you want have been bought."

"Quick, let them in."

"Yes."

Yueru looked at the two baskets of medicine that were carried in by the two little maids, and sighed helplessly.

Su Muge didn't rush to complete the configuration of all of them, but just deployed them according to the proportion.

After lunch, she took the prepared medicine and changed into men's clothes and left the house.

Su Muge walked down the street, planning to try the effects of these medicines.

There is a special place for beggars and homeless people to live in the capital, and there should be a small number of people who are sick and have no money for treatment, and she brought these medicines over, and while helping those people, she can also see whether the effect of the medicine is the same as she expected.

Su Muge walked through a teahouse and almost ran into someone head-on, she quickly stopped.

"What people!"

Su Muge raised his head and saw Donglin blocking him at a glance.

She wore men's clothes, and did not deliberately disguise herself, but just put two mustaches on her lips.

"Su ...... Son? Donglin's gaze first fell on the birthmark in the corner of Su Muge's eye, eh, don't say it, I haven't seen that birthmark in the past few days, it seems to have faded a lot, although it is still there, but at least it is not as dazzling as it used to be.

Donglin still wanted to see if he was wrong, and suddenly felt a chill behind him, and immediately retreated to the side.

Xiahou Mo's gaze swept over Su Muge, and when he looked at her flat chest, he twisted his eyebrows slightly.

"Wang ...... The Ninth Prince is well. ”

"Hmm." Xiahou Mo answered in a nasal voice. "Where?"

Su Muge looked at Xiahou Mo, and an idea suddenly flashed in his mind.

"I was about to see you."

Xiahou Mo raised his eyebrows slightly, and he couldn't see his emotions.

Laughing like a little fox, will come to him if you have nothing to do?

"Get in the carriage and say."

Zuoqiu had already come with the carriage.

It's cold now, and although it's not snowing anymore, Su Muge still feels cold.

"Okay."

She carried a small burden and got into the carriage, which was covered with soft wool cushions, and left black footprints when she stepped on it, what a waste!

Xiahou Mo got into the carriage and sat opposite her, seeing that her little face was a little pale from the cold, he took a handguard stove and threw it to her.

"It's too weak."

"Huh?"

Su Muge hugged the stove, and then felt that her body was warmer, although she had been paying attention to recuperation, but her physique was not so easy to change, this body was originally a little cold, and her limbs were cold in winter.

"What are you looking for this king?"

After his hands warmed up, Su Muge untied the small burden on his body and opened it.

"Lord, the courtiers have several wound medicines that are very suitable for use on the battlefield, as well as an effective medicine for wind cold and brain fever......"

"Getting to the point." Xiahou Mo interrupted her coldly.

Su Muge choked and showed a sincere smile. "Does the prince need it, can the courtiers give you a friendship price?"
