In early August, the eunuch Zhang You, who had gone to Jiangzhou to announce the decree, returned to Kyoto with Yan Xu, who had been cut into 'pieces' by a thousand knives.

The temperature was high along the way, and the 'debris' emitted a foul smell that was disgusting.

Zhang You was miserable, but he had to bring these 'residues' all the way back to Kyoto, otherwise he really couldn't deal with Mo Junyu.

Even though Mo Junyang gave a good explanation, Mo Junyu is the emperor and the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, and it is only a matter of one sentence to make a difficulty.

Mo Junyu only heard that Yan Xu was not optimistic and was killed, so he was so angry that he kicked the person.

Zhang You hit the pillar, and then fell heavily to the ground, grinning in pain, but he didn't dare to make a sound.

On the contrary, Mo Junzhan couldn't look past it, and said unhappily: "Brother Emperor, what are you doing?" He didn't kill people, so why are you angry with him? ”

A sneer fell from the corner of Mo Junyu's mouth, he glanced at Mo Junzhan, and asked meaningfully: "Then you should tell me, who killed the person?" ”

"I ......" Mo Junzhan was made uncomfortable by Mo Junyu's mocking smile, and almost admitted it impulsively.

It was Qu Yue's white eyes that quickly pulled the sleeve of Mo Junzhan's shirt to stop the other party's suicidal voice.

Mo Junzhan reluctantly swallowed his words, avoiding Mo Junyu's gaze, and said in a muffled voice: "How do I know? Didn't Mo Shizi make it very clear in the letter? Yan Xu did a lot of evil, and a lot of people looked at him unpleasantly, and it was normal to torture and kill him halfway. ”

Of course, Mo Junyu knew that this was the truth that Mo Junyang gave him, but it was precisely because he knew this that he was even more sure that there was something wrong with it.

Everyone present knows the truth.

If this remark was said by Mo Junyang, Mo Junyu might still be angry, but he would not dwell on this matter, but Mo Junyang was not there, and it was Mo Junzhan who came.

He is a potential threatener.

Mo Junyu narrowed his eyes dangerously, his gaze fell on Qu Yuebai, and suddenly said, "Why don't I know that Mr. Qu has actually become my ninth brother's person?" ”

Qu Yuebai was temporarily dragged by Shen Luo to save the scene, because Shen Luo is a doctor, and he is not good at dealing with these intrigues at all, and Qu Yuebai knows Mo Junyu a little bit in the end, and it is easier to speak.

But as soon as Mo Junyu spoke, Qu Yuebai's cold sweat fell.

He should have thought that Mo Junyu's suspicion was serious, and Mo Junyang would inevitably be suspected of saving his life.

Now that he is obviously helping Mo Jun to control the field, I am afraid that he has to suspect that he has formed a party for personal gain, and then pushes the pot on Mo Junyang.

Qu Yuebai swallowed her saliva, put down her body and explained, "The prince of the world has something to do and failed to personally report the harvest of the trip to Jiangzhou to His Majesty, so he specially ordered his subordinates to enter the palace with the Nine Princes to face the saint, one is to confess to His Majesty on behalf of the prince, and the other is to explain the matter clearly."

I also hope that Your Majesty will look at the face of the prince and forgive the son for his dereliction of duty. ”

The words of pleading guilty were very beautiful, but Qu Yuebai did not have much confidence in his heart.

I'm afraid that the new emperor in front of me has ascended the throne with three fires and burned out the past feelings, so Mo Junyang may really have to take the blame for others this time.

After Qu Yuebai gave an explanation, Mo Junyu's eyes were sharp, and Qu Yuebai was frightened, almost thinking that this time he was going to suffer, but Mo Junyu suddenly fell silent.

"Alright, you all go out."

How easy it was to pass?

Everyone was a little surprised, but even Mo Junzhan knew that the wisest thing to do at this time was to go out obediently - let it pass when the matter was over.

But as soon as everyone retreated to the door, Mo Junyu spoke again: "Mr. Qu stays." ”

Qu Yuebai paused, and found that Mo Junzhan was looking at him worriedly, as if he wanted to say something. He shook his head at Mo Junzhan without a trace, and the latter finally walked out without opening his mouth.

Only Mo Junyu and Qu Yuebai were left in the imperial study.

Mo Junyu began to look at Qu Yuebai with that sharp gaze again, and was silent for a long time.

Qu Yuebai couldn't cultivate as calm and calm as Mo Junyang, feeling Mo Junyu's gaze, his back was like a pinprick, and he almost couldn't help it.

Fortunately, Mo Junyu spoke: "I heard that Mr. Qu didn't go with him on this trip to Jiangzhou?" ”

Qu Yuebai replied respectfully: "Yes, the subordinate has been staying in Kyoto. ”

"Kyoto is a great place." Mo Junyu sighed with emotion, suddenly changed the topic, and asked: "Why does Mr. Naqu know the affairs of Jiangzhou and Brother Yang's thoughts so clearly?" He's back? ”

Qu Yuebai's back was already sweating like rain, but her face was still tense, trying to maintain a calm posture, and replied: "The ministers are worried about the prince, and they have written several times to inquire about the affairs of Jiangzhou, in case of emergency, and the princes have told them frankly one by one, so the ministers have some understanding of the affairs of Jiangzhou.

As for the son, he still has important things to do, so he can't come back for the time being, and I ask your majesty to forgive me. ”

"Something important?" Mo Junyu sneered, "Is his so-called important thing to resist the decree?" ”

Qu Yuebai heard the meaning behind this question, and immediately turned white, and hurriedly defended Mo Junyang: "Your Majesty misunderstood, the prince is really, is it ......"

Mo Junyang's resistance is a fact, not to mention the killing of Yan Xu, just because he hasn't returned yet, he has already sent the handle to other people's desks, even if Qu Yuebai is clever and eloquent, he can't tell it!

Mo Junyu listened to Qu Yuebai's stammering voice, the smile on his face became more and more condensed, and he snorted lightly: "I see that he was completely blinded by Shi Liuniang, and he forgot his identity, right?" ”

Mo Junyu does not deny that Mo Junyang has made a lot of efforts in his succession, and even if there is no Mo Junyang, he is likely to be dead, let alone inherit the unification.

But Mo Junyang cares much more about Shi Qingxue than he does - this matter will always be in his throat like a fish thorn, making it difficult for him to swallow and sleep.

He hadn't become an emperor before, so even if he had any dissatisfaction, he could only hold back, but now that he was already the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, why didn't Mo Junyang's attitude towards him change even the slightest?

Emperor Mo Ren said that he was very upset.

If Qu Yuebai knew Mo Junyu's thoughts at this time, I am afraid that he would have to say: Don't be heartbroken, where is Mo Junyang blinded by Shi Qingxue, it is obvious that he even gave his heart to that person, no one wants to compare with Shi Qingxue!

However, saying such words only intensified the contradiction, Qu Yuebai covered her mouth and didn't say anything, and respectfully comforted: "The Shi family has always been a pure minister by His Majesty's side, and there is no conflict with His Majesty's interests, this is the ......"

Because Mo Junyu did not explicitly mention that he already knew that Mo Junyang had gone to the Northland, Qu Yuebai did not take the initiative to say, and after bringing it over vaguely, "The prince is also for the sake of His Majesty's country, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive me." ”

That's exactly the case, let's not talk about Mo Junyang's selfishness of resisting the decree and disrespecting, just talking about this result - eradicating Mo Junhao and maintaining Da Mo's stability - is beneficial to everyone!

Mo Junyu has no reason and is not happy to see it.

Of course, His Majesty the Emperor knew this, but it was precisely because he knew this well that he became more and more depressed.

It seems that his anger has become his unreasonable trouble, but if he wants to ignore it, he is so aggrieved and panicked in his heart, and he is really angry with him.

"Okay, okay, don't forgive me for the left sentence and forgive me for the right sentence." Mo Junyu finally gave up the topic and smiled at Qu Yuebai.

"Anyway, we have worked together for many years, and Mr. Qu should not be so polite to me! It's just like it used to be! ”

It's an emotional game.

Qu Yuebai knew it, but she didn't show any emotion on her face, and followed Mo Junyu's words: "Since this is the case, please rest assured Your Majesty." ”

The two talked a few more words, and Mo Junyu saw that he really couldn't find any other news, so he sent the person away with great mercy.

Qu Yuebai bowed down and retired, and when he came out of the imperial study, he saw his younger brother Qu Yuexuan waiting there.

Seeing him, he hurriedly greeted him, but Qu Yuebai shook his head at him first, and the two walked out of the palace gate in silence and got into the carriage.

Qu Yuexuan couldn't wait to ask, "How is it?" Did the emperor embarrass you? ”

Qu Yuebai smiled bitterly: "Things are just like Jun Yang's estimates, I'm just a little minion, how can he embarrass me?" ”

"But looking at your expression, how do you look like you've just fought a war?" Qu Yuexuan looked at her brother suspiciously.

"Even if it's okay, the process is still painful!" Qu Yuebai sighed.

Both of these are living ancestors, even if they don't take him under the knife, any action is enough for him to be shocked!

Brother Qu said that his heart is very bad, can he suffer less similar suffering in the future!

Qu Yuexuan looked at his brother again, and after making sure that he was really fine, he immediately changed his attitude and hummed disdainfully: "It's really useless, if you let Jun Yang come, you won't be like you who are dead!" ”

Qu Yuebai angrily plagued him, "Then you have the ability to let him come back, or you have the ability to do it!" ”

Every time something happens, he has to clean up his tail, and Brother Qu is congested.

Qu Yuexuan immediately wilted.

Among the group of people raised by Mo Shizi, Qu Yuebai is the most ingenious and good at dealing with various emergencies.

Qu Yuexuan also verbally habitually scolded his eldest brother, but in fact, he was still very optimistic about Qu Yuebai's ability.

"Is it okay now?" Qu Yuexuan asked awkwardly.

Qu Yuebai's face was still a little pale and weak, and when she heard the question, her expression became a little depressed again, "It's hard to say, that person is now an emperor, and his mind is much deeper than before." Now it seems like a good talker, but who knows what he thinks behind the scenes and how he will do it? ”

Speaking of Mo Junyu, Qu Yuebai's expression became more and more serious, staring at his lazy younger brother, and warning word by word: "I didn't bother to talk about you before, but you remember for me now, no matter what, the crown prince is now the emperor, so we can't be as casual as before."

Especially you, the previous casual attitude is definitely not good, you give me a warning, don't be caught, do you hear? ”

It was rare for Qu Yuexuan not to say anything against Qu Yuebai, the expression on her face was still reluctant, and she still promised obediently: "I know." ”

After thinking about it, he was a little unwilling, and added: "The premise is that he doesn't come to provoke me, if he really dares to do the thing of demolishing the bridge in the river, I am not the kind of person who will swallow his anger!" ”

"You!"

Qu Yuebai was ruthless by Qu Yuexuan's anger, but after thinking about it, he didn't know how to reprimand, sighed slightly, and said helplessly: "That's it!" ”
