Regardless of the rumors from the outside world, the wedding between King Chen and Miss Mu was still held as scheduled.

Ten miles of red makeup spread all over the city, if it weren't for the groom's official not appearing, it would have been a grand wedding. But the groom couldn't get out of bed because of illness, and he didn't even show up in the chapel, so the bride was carried directly into the east courtyard. For a while, this princess Chen became the laughing stock of people in the imperial city before and after dinner.

"Ah Rong, you're too ruthless, aren't you? No matter what Miss Mu Jia says, she is also a lady of everyone, and it doesn't matter if you spread those unbearable rumors, she doesn't even appear in the chapel, I look too much. I don't know how wronged this Miss Mu family is! Maybe I'm crying in my new house at this time. Xiao Li frowned, paced back and forth, looked at the man who was playing chess by himself, and finally said the words that were pressed in his chest.

The man picked up a white seed and dropped it, and said disapprerovitically: "If this king appears today, then why bother spreading rumors before?" I can't complain about the ruthlessness of this king, who let her not have a good life to marry a prince like her sister? Now the four princes of King Rong, King Rui, King Huai, and King Ning are fighting more and more fiercely, and they are all looking at the king behind their backs. If this king happily goes to welcome his relatives today, it is to tell everyone that this king is on the side of King Rui, then this king will offend the other three princes. But if this king refuses this family business from the beginning, he will offend King Rui, and after weighing the pros and cons, only by sacrificing Mu Xuefu's reputation can he be exchanged for the fact that today's king will not be offended. After speaking, he glanced at Xiao Li, who was constantly walking around him, turned his head and dropped another sunspot, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Draw chess!" ”

Xiao Li looked at him helplessly and said, "Her reputation is not good, but you still let her enter the mansion, this is the face you gave to King Rui." But today's actions will definitely make the Mu family unhappy, so although you are Mu Zhaolin's son-in-law, the relationship will not be good. In this way, not only King Rong, but also others will know that you will not support King Rui. After weighing several parties, you are away from this chaotic whirlpool of struggle, and you are on your own. ”

"Although Mu Xuefu bears this false name, he can let this king withdraw from it, why should this king pity the jade?" Jing Rong looked at the game of chess he played, satisfied, and waved his hand, and the black and white chess pieces returned to their places.

In the east courtyard, Zi Yao stood under the corridor, looking at the people of the palace who were busy in the courtyard. The people of this palace are as hateful as their masters, and they can't afford to be sick on this kind of day, isn't this the whole imperial city telling everyone that their master is a bad star, and the prince who has not passed the door can afford to be sick? If it weren't for the master's refusal, she would have already settled accounts with that bullshit prince! And the bullshit princess's bullshit concubines dare to be disrespectful to her master, wait, one day she will make the Chenwang Mansion restless.

"Master, this Prince Chen is too bullying!" Bai Yi looked at Zi Yao standing in the courtyard with swaying eyes, gritted his teeth, and said. If you listen closely, you can hear her voice choking. Tears kept rolling in her eyes, even if she didn't dare to look at Mu Xuefu and refused to shed tears.

Mu Xuefu took off all the ornaments on his head, feeling relaxed. She moved her neck and said, "This is an unexpected joy for me, I wish this Lord Chen would never appear in front of me." He is his prince, I do my business, the well water does not interfere with the river water, it has nothing to do with each other, and everyone can be safe. ”

"It's not good to get sick when you get sick, but today, I think King Chen deliberately did it!" Bai Yi wiped the tears from his eyes and said.

Mu Xuefu walked up to her and wiped her face, "Wouldn't it be bad if he took me in his eyes?" It's a dream of me now. His expression turned, a streamer flashed in his eyes, and he said: "This prince is very smart, so it's better for us to have less contact with him." ”

Three days later, it was the day Mu Xuefu returned to the door, but at this time she was not in a hurry, she still leaned back on the chair leisurely and pretended to sleep, and the young people washed and put on makeup for her.

"Master, the prince sent someone to say that something happened in the palace, and the prince had already entered the palace and could not accompany him back to the door. If the master has any needs, just tell the housekeeper Zhou Cheng, and if you want to go out, you can ask the housekeeper to prepare the carriage. Jin Lu sent away the servant sent by King Chen and walked into the room, and whispered in Mu Xuefu's ear.

Mu Xuefu opened her eyes, covered her mouth and yawned, and complained, "I would have gotten up late if I had known." Looking at herself in the mirror and getting up, "In this case, let's go early and return early." Bring my hat, this princess has a face like a demon, and she still has to cover her ugliness, so as not to scare a few people to death. ”

Jing Rong stood outside the gate of the palace, looking at the three hundred Janissaries with separate heads, and his thoughts turned a thousand times. The Praetorian Guard was under the control of King Rong, and now three hundred guards were killed overnight, and King Rong naturally could not escape the blame. And he commanded the Gyeonggi Guard, and to a certain extent, he also had a responsibility that he could not shirk. But who did this?

Wise King? Because he didn't envelop himself, he came out of this way to give King Rong a blow, and by the way, bring himself?

These three hundred guards didn't even pull out the knives on their bodies, and they were silently killed, how did King Rui do it? Could it be that he invited the top master to do things for him, but he hasn't heard of strangers around him in recent days!

Could it be someone else? King Ning? Huaiwang? Or Mu Zhaolin?

"Lord Wang, King Rong is here." When he thought about it, he reminded in a whisper on the side.

Jing Rong turned around, arched his hand at King Rong from far and near, and said, "Why did the fourth brother come?" ”

King Rong also saluted: "I don't want you to come earlier than the fourth brother." His expression was faint, looking at the corpses all over the ground, his thick eyebrows moved slightly, and he said: "The killing method is very neat, the sword is not drawn, there is no sign of resistance and struggle, all of them are smiling, as if they are willing to offer their heads." Such a strange method of killing is simply unheard of and unseen. ”

Jing Rong nodded, his expression was more solemn, and said, "I'm afraid it was done by people in the rivers and lakes." ”

King Rong's eyebrows furrowed, and after a moment, he ordered: "Move all the corpses to the court bureau, this king will go to face the saint first, and everything will be talked about later." ”

When the two of them arrived at the Longhuan Palace, King Rui had already arrived, looking at Emperor Xuanwu's solemn face, the two of them kowtowed and said: "The son (imperial nephew) is negligent in his duties and ineffective in guarding, please punish his father (emperor)." ”

His gaze circled around their heads like a cold wind, and Emperor Xuanwu's face was pale, and he didn't call out, and after a long time, he said coldly: "Jingrong, I heard that not only did you not go to pick up your relatives, but you didn't even worship in the hall. ”

Jing Rong naturally knew that Emperor Xuanwu would interrogate him today, raised his eyes to look at him, and said indifferently: "It's all because the emperor's nephew is not in good health, and he doesn't want to get sick on the day of the wedding, and he can't even get out of bed, so he really wronged Miss Mujia." ”

"What Miss Mu family, if you enter the door of your Chenwang Mansion, you are your princess." Emperor Xuanwu's face was a little pale, but he was still a little dissatisfied, and said in a deep voice: "Treat people well when you go back, your princess is not only the daughter of the Zuo Xiang family, but also the sister of Princess Rui, looking at this relationship, you can't treat her badly." ”
