"Where did you hear that?"

Mu Rin frowned.

Zhaolin said: "The subordinate is from the guard of the guard, the daughter-in-law's aunt, the son's friend's daughter-in-law, the boss of the same village who sells stinky tofu on the street of the capital, the boss said that from the chat of the guests who buy stinky tofu, the subordinate really heard a lot of people in the inquiry. ”

Mu Rin listened, stretched out his hand to cover his eyes, and didn't want to respond to him at all.

"Young master, what those people said is that the fourth princess wants to find a daughter-in-law for the young master, it is not because of the injury at all, young master, do you really like men?" Zhaolin was a little worried uncertainly.

"Am I, don't you know best?" Mu Rin supported his forehead with his hand, and his head was not in ordinary pain.

"Young Master!" Zhaolin hurriedly walked up to Mu Rin and said, "If you don't want to hear it, I won't talk about it, are you uncomfortable?"

"Follow me every day, don't you know what I like?" Mu Rin let go of his hand and gave him a cool look.

And in a cautious tone, as if he really needed to be covered.

"I'll just say that the young master is so masculine, how can it be that he has broken sleeves, and the rumor-mongers are too disgusting and have unpredictable intentions. Zhaolin said very angrily.

After a pause, Zhaolin looked at Mu Rin and said, "But, young master, I see that you don't eat fireworks in the world on weekdays, other officers go to the military prostitute camp, I haven't seen you go there, young master, and the noble son in the capital has gone to Qinglou, and I haven't been with you." Young master, is it possible that you usually solve problems with your right and left hands?"

"Zhaolin!"

"Young Master, what's your name?"

"Don't you think you know too much?" Mu Rin grinded his teeth and looked at Zhaolin with raised eyebrows.

How unlucky he is, he has not appeared in the mansion for a long time at large and small banquets in the capital, and he has not even left the mansion gate to talk about things.

I really don't know what kind of resentful thing he has done, which bull ghost and snake god he has offended, and he used such means to calculate him?

"Young Master, I was wrong...... Young Master, I'm going to find out who spread the news of smearing the young master like this......" Before Zhaolin finished speaking, a small attendant walked into the outer courtyard, who was the general attendant of the Four Princes' Mansion.

"Knock on the valiant general!"

"What?"

The little attendant hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said, "The prince is invited, and the general please follow the little one to the Four Princes' Mansion." ”

As soon as Mu Rin heard this, he knew that something was going on, so he immediately got up.

The little attendant saw that Mu Rin was getting up too fast, and suddenly, his face changed with fright, and he knew that there was something wrong with Mu Rin's legs, and if he fell down this time, it would be his sin to be a slave.

hurriedly said: "The general doesn't need to be so fast, don't hurt your body, otherwise, the princess will blame the slave!"

Mu Rin lowered his voice and said lightly: "I won't blame you, where is the carriage? Hurry up and lead the way!" Then, he took a step.

Zhaolin hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and followed the little attendant who led the way......

In the palace.

The forbidden place where the Imperial Study is located.

In addition to the emperor Jun Ao, there are also the crown prince Jun Yuan, the second prince Jun Qingzhen, and the third prince Jun Yan Lie are also in the imperial study.

"The son knocks on his father's !!"

The three saluted in unison.

"Let's all be flat!"

"Thank you, Father!"

The emperor's arrogant and majestic face was a little tired, and there were two faint blue and black under his eyes, which showed that he was in a very bad mood at the moment, and his face was not full of gloom at all.

It seems that there is something bad! Jun Qingzhen felt slightly uneasy in his heart, and it was not the right time to come secretly, but he was really forced to have no way to get rid of the poor in the house without money. Moreover, the Fourth Emperor Uncle took away his Yulu directly one after another, he was really scared, and he could only come to the palace to seek protection.

My father's face is not good-looking now, I hope he is dazzled, otherwise, he will be miserable, and the empty money feels really miserable!

The crown prince Jun Yuan, the third prince Jun Yan Lie, these two stood on the same side without being shocked.

Leaving Jun Qingzhen on the other side, he became the most conspicuous one.

At this moment, Jun Qingzhen could feel his father's gaze on him even more, with a thick scrutiny, and there was obvious exploration in his eyes.

"Prince, Lie'er, you two should go back first!" Emperor Jun Ao said to Jun Yuan and Jun Yan Lie.

When Jun Qingzhen heard this, he was extremely grateful, his father was still very good to him, and he would be embarrassed to ask for a good fortune knowing that there were other people in his poor jingle ring.

"The things you two have put forward are well thought out, very good!" the Emperor said again as the crown prince and Jun Yan Lie were about to leave.

The crown prince and the prince Yan Lie received the emperor's praise, so they bowed down and retired.

The crown prince Junyuan did not show any nostalgia, turned around and walked out.

And, when Jun Yanlie passed by Jun Qingzhen, his eyes fell on Jun Qingzhen's face, and even smiled at Jun Qingzhen.

Jun Qingzhen was so smiled by Jun Yan Lie, the cold hair on his body stood on end, and he only felt that Jun Yan Lie's smile contained emotions that he couldn't understand, and it made his heart suddenly move and a strange feeling rose.

Four Princes' Mansions.

In King's Landing's study, Mu Qingyan was drinking tea absentmindedly, her eyes looking out from time to time.

A moment later, a message came from the subordinates, and Mu Rin had arrived in the hall.

Mu Qingyan got up from the chair abruptly, and walked out just in time to meet Mu Rin, who happened to walk in.

"Brother~~"

Mu Rin was stunned for a moment, he thought that it was just a summons from the fourth prince, and it was impossible to see Mu Qingyan, looking at Mu Qingyan's urgent appearance, he skillfully showed a smile at her.

Mu Qingyan couldn't help but rush forward, stared at him, and said with some complaints: "It's not for you to rest more, why do you keep running around, do you still want your feet?"

Mu Rin was told by her, but she didn't have the apprehension when she came, and said gently: "This is good!"

"Are you going to stand outside until you're old?" King's Landing asked coldly, standing inside the house, watching the two of them in the courtyard.

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan stretched out her hand to help Mu Rin, but Mu Rin didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, so she staggered Mu Qingyan's hand and walked forward to salute King's Landing.

"Four Princes!"

"Come in!" King's Landing glanced at the respectful Mu Rin, said lightly, and then turned around and walked into the study.

Mu Qingyan grimaced mischievously at King's Landing's back.

Mu Rin couldn't help but shake her head when she saw it, she was too childish!

Zhang Heng stood at the door, saw it, and slowly raised his eyes to his head, he still pretended not to have seen anything.

After walking into the study.

"Sit, how is your leg healing?" King's Landing asked casually.

When Mu Rin heard this, he sat down and replied, "It's still the same!"

"Hmm!" King's Landing's fingers tapped lightly on the table, "do you know why this king came to you?"

Mu Rin raised his hand and pressed his temple, and said innocently: "It's a broken sleeve!" The words fell, and he put down his hand stupidly.

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan glared at him and said complainingly: "If I knew this, I should have shoehorned those women into you!"

Mu Rin was choked by her words, and could only watch blankly.

"The rumors were so fast and so big that they caught people off guard. In just one day, everyone knows it, and besides, it's really true that you've never been close to women. Mu Qingyan touched her chin and said.

"How are you going to deal with it?" asked King's Landing lightly.

Mu Rin said concisely: "Does the prince have a good proposal?"

The meaning is obvious, he is destined to be in this position not to marry a woman as a wife at will, marriage is an expedient measure, and he does not want to arrange a marriage for anyone. Even if it was an emperor who others thought was extremely glorious, he didn't want to.

However, now, such rumors are a fatal blow to ordinary people, not to mention that he is in an important position. The emperor is afraid that he has already heard it, how can the emperor be unreasonable, but ......

"Marry one now!"

Mu Rin was silent, a strange color flashed on his face, and after a while, the corners of his mouth said with a little mockery: "At this time, who else is willing to marry their daughter to me? Even if they are willing to send their daughter to me as a wife, prince, do you think the emperor will agree?"

His words were like knives, engraved in Mu Qingyan's head.

Mu Qingyan turned her eyes to look at King's Landing, only to see that King's Landing acquiesced to Mu Rin's words.

"There is probably someone else who is willing to marry me now......"

It's okay that Mu Rin didn't mention it, but when he mentioned it, Mu Qingyan knew who he was talking about, and interrupted in a deep voice: "No!"

Thinking of Mrs. Mu's mouth, thinking of the family in Mu's mansion, she disapproved very much.

Mrs. Mu's party is unprofitable, at this time, going to let Zhao Rui'er marry Mu Rin is undoubtedly sent to the door, let them slaughter!

Mu Rin heard this, and said helplessly: "The matter is here, it's really not easy to do!"

"Master, the news from the dark guard!"

Suddenly, Zhang Heng hurriedly walked to King's Landing from outside and handed over the news.

Jun Lin read it and then handed the note to Zhang Heng to destroy, and raised his eyes to look at Mu Rin, there was some strange color in his eyes.

"The emperor has already helped you choose a candidate!"

"So fast?" Mu Qingyan was very surprised and asked, "Who is the emperor decided?"

King's Landing was silent, not speaking, but his expression could still be seen to be a little unnatural.

After a long time, a name was spoken.

"Jun Qingzhen!"

Mu Rin, Mu Qingyan was dumbfounded on the spot when she heard this, the second prince Jun Qingzhen!!

can't react for a long time, this thing is too amazing, how did the emperor make such a decision?

It's just puzzling......

Mu Qingyan frowned, deeply puzzled, and asked, "Could it be that Jun Qingzhen has always been a woman dressed as a man? That's why the emperor asked her to marry Mu Rin?"

"No!" King's Landing told Mu Qingyan with certainty that Jun Qingzhen was not a woman.

"Jun Qingzhen is a man, I have fought with him, and I have fought everywhere I can, so I am very sure that he is a man!" Mu Rin came back to his senses and said.

I can't figure out how the emperor was stimulated to let Jun Qingzhen marry him?

A prince marries a crippled courtier......

Thinking of Jun Qingzhen, an unreliable person who wanted to be her sister-in-law, Mu Qingyan covered her forehead a little uncontrollably, "Lord Wang, you are so powerful, can you make the emperor take back his life?"

"The Holy Decree is almost to the Heroic General's Mansion, and it's too late to go now. King's Landing said lightly.

When Mu Rin heard this, a wry smile flashed in his eyes, after all, he still has to marry, who is not to marry, but he didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, he married a real prince!

Looking at Mu Qingyan's worried look, Mu Rin consciously told her, "Don't worry, maybe this is the best result!"

The incompetence of the second prince is obvious to all, and probably, only such a prince and he, a general who holds military power, are the most satisfactory control combination for the emperor......

Thinking about it, it also dispelled the minds of many ill-intentioned people, and if he wants to send a woman to the heroic general's mansion in the future, he has to see if Junqing Zhenle is happy to accept it, anyway, he doesn't care!

Mu Qingyan said indignantly: "Jun Qingzhen is a poor bastard, it's not the best result, in the future, his brother's money will be spent on him!"

Mu Rin was choked to death by her words, and looked away from her stupidly!

Zhang Heng listened and almost knelt, the princess's big reaction was because the second prince had no money, she hated the poor and loved the rich??

King's Landing glanced sideways and glanced at her faintly.

"That money, you also think about it, you don't know, I think this king is very stingy with you!"

"No, the prince is the best for me!" Mu Qingyan turned sideways slightly, holding King's Landing with her small hand, her slender fingers gently drawing circles in the center of his big palm, and said, "Master, have you forgotten something important?"

What about the key to the storeroom?

King's Landing was very satisfied that Mu Qingyan's eyes were full of herself, and she said, "Mu Rin, how things should be, you can consider it yourself." ”

In this way, Mu Rin was driven away.

Mu Qingyan got permission from King's Landing and escorted Mu Rin to the gate until Zhaolin helped him into the carriage.

Mu Qingyan looked through the window and said solemnly: "Brother, if you don't like it, I'll find a way to help you!"

Mu Rin's heart was shocked, he smiled, and said: "The emperor has the emperor's considerations, and it is probably just to block the mouths of the people, so you don't have to worry too much." ”

"Hmm!" Mu Qingyan nodded in response, "Brother, I need a good woman here, do you want to send you a few first?"

"......" Mu Rin looked at the serious Mu Qingyan, took a deep breath, and said to Zhaolin: "Go home!"

The gates of the Four Kings' Mansion are getting farther and farther away.

Zhaolin glanced at the window, turned back to Mu Rin and asked, "Young Master, does the emperor really want the second prince to marry you?"

"What the fourth prince said, there shouldn't be any falsehood!" Mu Rin said indifferently.

Zhaolin said: "But, this doesn't make sense, how can the emperor be so confused ......?"

"In ancient times, in order to prevent the military power from falling to others, some emperors would often use many means to entrap and control, and men and women would marry, and men and men would marry just ordinary political means. If the second prince marries into the heroic general's mansion, it will not only break the mouths of the people, but also show that the emperor has great favor and trust in me, a courtier. Mu Rin squinted his eyes, his eyes far-reaching.

"However, in the future, the young master's heirs ......" Zhaolin didn't dare to continue.

"If it's broken, it's broken!" Mu Rin said lightly: "I remember sending out to investigate, the people who have been at the border have not sent news back for a long time, what's going on?"

Zhaolin said: "A few days ago, the spies sent sent a message back, saying that the military camp on the border is now under the command of Lin Hanting's old department, and the prison army sent by the emperor died violently not long after arriving at the border because of the water and soil!"

"What a coincidence!" Mu Rin squinted slightly, his eyes full of gloom.

"Young Master, this is when you came out of the Four Princes' Mansion, Steward Shao said that the prince gave it to you!" Zhaolin said, giving a letter to Mu Rin.

Mu Rin opened the letter, read it again, his expression was heavy, and said: "Chen He appeared in the barracks, and our people didn't come back, I'm afraid they were also killed!"

Zhaolin didn't expect it to be like this, "Young Master, why did Chen He do this? He has been with the Young Master for so many years, and his wife left him for the Young Master, I can't believe that he would do this!"

Mu Rin's gaze did not lift from the letter, but quietly looked at it, lost in thought.

What did the fourth prince mean by this letter to him?

Why didn't you say it in front of the Four Kings just now?

It's because Mu Qingyan is here, so don't say it?

How much is going on here......

"The thing that the fourth prince has determined, that is the fact that the iron is beaten!" The letter instantly turned into powder in Mu Rin's hand and slowly fell on the wooden board.

Obviously, his injury was inseparable from Chen He's betrayal, when did Chen He partner with Lin Hanting to calculate him?

"Young Master, do you mean that all of our people were killed by Chen He and Lin Hanting's old department?" Zhaolin was very surprised.

"Well, they all died under the kind of bow and arrow that they encountered that day!" Mu Rin's gaze condensed completely.

The letters of the fourth prince are full of descriptions of the deaths of the people he sent out, and the reason why they died tragically is entirely because Chen He knows what they will do, how they will investigate, and where they will appear!

Chen He was familiar with all their actions and habits, and Chen He let people lure them all into the traps prepared in advance......

Zhaolin looked at the small box in his hand and said, "This, what is this?"

"Open!" Mu Rin said, looking at the box.

Zhaolin immediately opened the box and instantly saw the contents clearly, his hand frozen in mid-air.

I saw that there was an arrow with a cold light inside, and the body of the arrow had been broken, leaving a small section of the shaft of the arrow, which was covered with blood and had turned crimson.

Mu Rin reached out and took it out of the box, the thing in front of him was so familiar that he could recognize it when it turned to ashes.

This was when they reached the first line of heaven, and arrows rained down from the sky, and those arrows grazed past him and shot at his guards......

Take a closer look, only to see a small forest character engraved on the back...... Mu Rin's heart throbbed, and the pain of breaking bones reappeared in his mind, it turned out that all this had been planned early.

"Young Master, let go quickly, you're bleeding!" Zhaolin hurriedly dropped the box, grabbed Mu Rin's hand, and forcefully broke his fingers that were tightly holding the arrow.

The stinging pain and Zhaolin's nervous voice made Mu Rin's unconscious consciousness forcibly come back and calm his mind.

"I'm fine, put this thing away!" Mu Rin raised his head, his eyes were cold, and there were bloodshot in his eyes.

"Okay!" Zhaolin replied in a deep voice.

Mu Rin's eyes slowly drooped, and he stopped talking on the way.

Zhaolin looked at Mu Rin cautiously, for fear that something else would happen.

Half an hour later, the carriage stopped.

Zhaolin called softly: "Young Master, you have returned to the mansion!"

Hearing this, Mu Rin looked up, only to see him frown slightly, get up and get out of the car.

"General!"

As soon as he got out of the car, the butler in the heroic general's mansion immediately stepped forward and called.

Mu Rin stood in front of the car, his expression calm, uh, it should be said that he was as indifferent as ever, and asked calmly, "What's the matter?"

Steward Lu bowed to the side and said respectfully: "The emperor sent someone to deliver the holy decree, and I have been waiting for a while!"

"Hmm!" Mu Rin listened, without frowning, and then raised his feet and walked towards the mansion.

Now.

in the Royal Palace.

When Jun Qingzhen heard that he should marry Mu Rin, the whole person was not good.

"Father, are you serious?"

"The holy decree has been issued, and there are still fakes?" Emperor Jun Ao glanced at his most disgusted son, Jun Qingzhen, and said coldly.

"No, no, it's not ......," Jun Qingzhen said incomprehensibly.

"What's not?"

"Father, you have to think about it carefully, don't be angry and ruin ......"

The Emperor interrupted him sympathetically and said, "What have you ruined? I don't have the patience to listen to your nonsense here, so let me go to your Second Prince's Mansion as soon as possible." ”

Jun Qingzhen bit her lip, very aggrieved, but in the end, she couldn't withstand the pressure of the emperor, and said in a low voice: "Erchen, Erchen will step down......"

Gonggong Gui watched the second prince leave like a puppy in the water, and was very sympathetic.

"Do you also feel confused?" the emperor looked at Jun Qingzhen, who was reluctant to leave, and asked Gonggong Gui who was waiting on the side in a deep voice.

"The old slave didn't dare, but the old slave didn't understand why the emperor ...... After all, the second prince is the prince......"

Gonggong Gui is an old man in the palace, and he is a eunuch who has been sitting on the throne since the emperor was a child, and he can see many things more clearly than anyone else.

"The people who spread the rumors want to ruin Mu Rin, the court is unstable, if there is another crippled and incompetent general who has broken his sleeves, do you think the country will be stable?" the emperor said in a deep voice.

"Then the emperor doesn't need to marry the second prince to General Mu Rin, the beauties recommended by the crown prince and the third prince are also from good backgrounds. Gonggong Gui remembered the words of the crown prince and the third prince when the second prince did not come.

"Who do you think recommended the most suitable woman for Mu Rin?"

"The old slave is stupid, I don't know!"

"Old minion, after so many years with me, I still don't know what you think? Say, forgive you for your innocence!" the emperor glanced at Gonggong Gui.

Gonggong Gui thanked him and said, "The old slave thinks that the daughter of Lord Chang, the head of the Treasury Department of the Ministry of War, recommended by the third prince, is the most suitable. ”

The crown prince Jun Yuan and the third prince Jun Yan Lie were all enthusiastic in recommending women to marry Mu Rin.

He knew better than anyone that these women were their respective supporters...... The son is older, the heart is bigger, and it is inevitable to be born in the royal family.

And the last thing he wants is to see his brothers cannibalism, he knows the character of these sons very well!

Jun Yuan seems to be gentle but is scheming and the city government is deep, Jun Yan Lie is even more so, he has the means to have the city government, and he is ruthless.

Jun Qingzhen is the most incompetent of the princes......

"No, as long as it is recommended by them, it is not suitable!" said the Emperor in a deep voice.

"The emperor gave the second prince to marry, didn't he just respond to the thoughts of someone with a heart?"

"The meaning of my marriage is different, Mu Rin has changed from taking the initiative to being forced!"

"The emperor is wise!"

"Master, find out who spread the rumors. ”

At this time, the emperor's secret guard suddenly flashed under the emperor.

"Who is it?"
