In the first year of Tianyun, the empress ascended the throne in Chang'an, and on the celebration, a hundred cranes came to the court.

Emperor Wei did not dare to commit it, and the herringbone of the cranes flew away from the ceremony, which was surprising to the world, and the rumors of the empress's improper position were self-defeating.

The mastermind of the whole thing, the hero who attracted the crane to the dynasty, is hiding in the mountain behind the imperial garden to feed the fish at the moment.

Mu Qingyan was dressed in a white robe trimmed with gold edges, which was three points more luxurious than usual, but it also added two points of fireworks, which was more real.

"My brother is really good, he used to wear a green robe, how do you look like a poor Taoist priest." Mu Qingyin and Zhuang Gongzi peeped behind the plus, smiling and commenting.

"You think so, too?" Zhuang Gongzi looked surprised, as if he had found a soulmate.

The two buried their heads in chatting, not noticing at all that the gold-rimmed white robe had moved behind the two.

"It turns out that you two want to be Taoist priests," Mu Qingyan's voice sounded lightly, the two of them were excited, Zhuang Gongzi turned around and waved his hand: "There is no matter!" ”

Mu Qingyin also waved his hand and asked, "Brother, why did you run behind us?" ”

Mu Qingyan smiled and spread his hands: "Came over." ”

Zhuang Gongzi rolled his eyes and muttered in a low voice: "I really miss the time when he was sick and deaf and blind......

Mu Qingyan raised his eyebrows: "Did you see it?" ”

"Of course not!" In order to prevent the destruction of the corpse, Zhuang Gongzi said very self-consciously that he had never seen the worst appearance of Mu Qingyan in his life.

Mu Qingyan was silent, and his negative hand passed between the two.

A layer of coldness rose behind Mu Qingyin and Zhuang Gongzi, and they glanced at each other, both of them felt that something bad was about to happen.

Sure enough.

After the two returned to their residences, they both received a set of Taoist robes from the Dasheng Treasure Palace.

Mu Qingyan also said that they had just offered to go to the Great Dao Palace to eat fast and pray for blessings.

Mu Qingyin looked for him to theorize.

"Are you still your own brother? Let me go vegetarian? ”

Mu Qingyan put down the brush and raised his eyebrows to look at her: "I heard that Princess Qi still wants to call you a little uncle?" ”

King Qi is the title of the fifth prince, and Princess Qi is of course Mu Zhen, although these two have gone to the rivers and lakes to have a good time, but the matter of this little uncle has obviously not been hidden from Mu Qingyan's ears.

Mu Qingyin laughed for a while, grabbed his clothes and ran out.

It's better to think about it on the avenue than to hold it at home.

As for Zhuang Gongzi, it's even simpler.

"Qingyin has already gone, if you don't go, I will issue an order now to give marriage to the two of you."

"Mu Qingyan, you, the regent, are now going to seek to usurp the throne!" Zhuang Gongzi shouted, but the person disappeared, and of course his words were not threatening.

To put it bluntly, Changning was unconscious at the beginning, and it was not difficult for Mu Qingyan to really want to seek a dynasty to usurp the throne.

And now, the throne of the female emperor is stable and powerful.

Those who should be executed are executed by the rebels, those who should be rehabilitated are rehabilitated, and those who can be left behind by the ministers and generals of the government and the opposition are all people who are loyal to the Chu clan and loyal to Changning.

What's more, if Changning was really worried that Mu Qingyan would have objections, how could he crown him as the regent and add the rank of general to lead the world's soldiers and horses?

Now that everything is on the right track, who is still so idle, naturally there is no doubt about Mu Qingyan's motives.

Therefore, although Changning came forward to deal with court affairs in the first month after ascending the throne, and handed over all the affairs of the court to the regent for the next three months, the courtiers did not panic as Changning had been in a coma for three months before.

After all, the empress and the regent are in love with each other, and the women sing and the husband follows, what does it matter to these courtiers.

The Great Treasure Hall.

Changning spit out a grape skin, and the palace maid on the side caught it with a tray.

Mu Qingyan strode in, and Changning smiled: "Sent away?" ”

"Well," Mu Qingyan responded, lifted the layers of veil, and saw the girl's face clearly, and even the maid on the side blushed and lowered her head in a heartbeat.

Changning smiled: "I can't lose it," she reached out and grabbed Mu Qingyan's hand, proving that she was alive and would not suddenly disappear or faint.

After four months, Mu Qingyan still had lingering palpitations about her coma, and subconsciously stroked the back of Changning's hand with his thumb, while Changning smiled, grabbed his hand and put it on his stomach: "What you should worry about is Qingyin." ”

Mu Qingyan: "Let's see." ”

Changning couldn't cry or laugh for a while.

Avenue Palace.

Sister Regent, the county lord of Qingyin suddenly went up the mountain to cultivate, which made the entire Great Dao Palace nervous.

To be honest, although Changning gave Mu Qingyan the title of regent for his cousin's respect, it does not mean that the world will forget his identity as the imperial husband.

In the future, if the empress gives birth to a child, although she must have the surname Chu, she does have the blood of the Mu family in her body.

This Qingyin county lord is the future imperial aunt, and her status is comparable to that of the eldest princess, who dares to underestimate her.

And although there is a prince with a controversial identity hidden in the Great Dao Palace, so far, the empress has not recognized this younger brother, but she is afraid that whether she can prove her identity in her lifetime is a problem, and naturally she cannot be compared with Mu Qingyin.

Therefore, this trip was very pompous, and even the residence was chosen in the treasure land of the Cloud Palace in Shanding.

"This is the place where the ancestors of the past generations cultivated, please rest the county lord." The master of the Great Dao Palace invited him, and Zhuang Gongzi was regarded as a royal guard because his identity was unknown, and he was settled in the wing room near the master bedroom of the Cloud Palace.

Mu Qingyin was all about a play, but she was punished, so she was not too public, and she honestly recited scriptures and copied books in the first few days.

To her surprise, there were not only a large number of Dao classics in the Cloud Palace, but also many secret methods such as stargazing.

She was already interested in these techniques, and she ran away from home because her father and brother were unwilling, and even lost her temper, but now she found an opportunity, and she took the pretext of copying books to study day and night.

Zhuang Gongzi knows her temper very well, and there are ghosts who nest in it all day long to read books!

As soon as he broke in, he discovered Mu Qingyin's secret.

"This is a stargazing map?" Zhuang Gongzi's face was serious, "Mu Qingyan didn't allow you to learn this?" ”

"If you don't say it, I won't say it, my brother won't know." Mu Qingyin held the scroll with a weak heart and didn't let go, "If you betray me, I will ask Changning to give you and me a marriage!" ”

Zhuang Gongzi's face twitched: "I'm really ...... If no one is convinced, they will obey you. ”

There are also those who use their own marriages to blackmail others.

Mu Qingyin snorted and raised his chin: "Who made you not want to marry me, you have the ability to marry me!" ”

Zhuang Gongzi bared his teeth and grinned: "Okay, can't I still owe you brothers and sisters?" ”

Mu Qingyin smiled brighter than flowers: "It turns out that there are so many books on stargazing in the Great Dao Palace, more than at home, and this, it seems that it can make magic weapons, it's really mysterious!" ”

Now that he has a new goal, Mu Qingyin's curiosity has been completely aroused, and even the matter of marrying Zhuang Gongzi can be postponed.

And Zhuang Gongzi was also fascinated by this so-called matter of making magic weapons.

He didn't have any heavenly grace, but he also learned stargazing with Mu Qingyan, and his aura was insufficient but he had a foundation, so he quickly studied it with Mu Qingyin, and he avoided the boring days in the mountains.

As the days passed, their ritual tools gradually took shape.

But both of them felt that things were going in a weird direction.

"Don't you think that this magic weapon is pasted with layers of runes, and it looks more and more like ......" Mu Qingyin stared at the boxy embryo, and stopped talking.

"It's like a chessboard." Zhuang Gongzi said.

Mu Qingyin's throat moved, and he threw the cinnabar pen in his hand: "I won't draw anymore!" ”

Zhuang Gongzi glanced at her, with her temper, can she really hold back her curiosity?

"It's a man-eating thing, I don't dare to draw it." Mu Qingyin was much more rational than he thought, "At least, at least let's ask my brother first." ”

At the beginning, Changning's soul fell into the Great Dao Plate, and he almost couldn't come back, and everyone was helpless, so they could only watch the chessboard shatter.

Now, it is really strange to draw another embryo shape of a large road plate from her hand.

You know, she drew talismans together according to the record in the book, and the rune paper fell to the ground with the wind, and what shape it became should be random, but the rough blank formed by the rune paper falling to the ground turned out to be boxy.

At first, she thought it was magical, thinking that it was a spirit in the Great Dao, but as the shape appeared, the stars on the chessboard began to have eyebrows, and Mu Qingyin was really a little panicked.

She and Zhuang Gongzi have both seen the power of the Great Daopan, and it is normal that they dare not act rashly.

"It's okay, although Mu Qingyan has no talent, his knowledge is still there," Zhuang Gongzi nodded, they weren't imprisoned here, and it wasn't easy to go back to the palace.

"Then I'll leave for the palace now, and you won't paint anymore, and I'll talk about everything when I come back." Zhuang Gongzi said.

Mu Qingyin nodded solemnly, but when Zhuang Gongzi left, she picked up the pen and continued to draw, the speed was several times that of before, and the appearance was very weird.

Zhuang Gongzi rushed to the stable and urged: "Hurry up, a fast horse, I want to go back to the palace." ”

The old Taoist priest guarding the stables had a dirty face, but he was dumb.

Zhuang Gongzi waved his hand impatiently: "Forget it, I'll lead the horse myself." He was in a hurry, so he rushed into the stable and brought out a strong horse to go.

The old Taoist priest suddenly stopped him, made a gesture to eat, and waved his hand at him constantly.

"You say the horse hasn't eaten?"

The old Taoist priest nodded again and again, and pulled out another horse, Zhuang Gongzi didn't think much about it, and rode away.

Originally, twilight was approaching, but the Great Avenue Palace was not far from Chang'an, so it was possible to arrive at night with a quick horse.

Today is different from the past, and the identity of Zhuang Gongzi is also extraordinary, and he is still sure to open the city gate.

But unexpectedly, the horse ran fast at first, but as soon as he came down the mountain, he began to have diarrhea, and his legs were weak when he walked all the way, and the speed was not as fast as Zhuang Gongzi's two legs.

Zhuang Gongzi recalled the old Taoist priest in the stable, and always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

But this horse with diarrhea is ironclad evidence, Qingyin stays alone in the mountains, will something happen?

This question bothered Zhuang Gongzi in an instant.

He wanted to turn back, but he felt that the more this was the case, the more he should let Mu Qingyan know the situation as soon as possible so that he could deal with it.

It's hard to take a step back.

Zhuang Gongzi scratched his head irritably, and inadvertently touched a water bladder on the left side, and subconsciously wanted to take a sip to sober up.

The demon sent the god to the ground, and he paused.

"I decided to leave suddenly, how could there be a water bladder hanging on the horse's back?" He suddenly flipped the water bladder, and the water fell to the ground with a clatter, rotting black.

Zhuang Gongzi threw away the water bladder with a snap and shouted: "Not good! ”

Clean tones are in danger!
