Capital.

Huo Chen has always been entangled in affairs, and after returning to the capital from Texas, he began to investigate which country outside the customs had any changes.

But what he was worried about was that Mu Wanqing was nowhere to be found, and Huo Chen didn't know what to do.

It turned out that he had such hesitations sometimes, but the enemy was in front of him, and he could no longer be distracted.

Today, he was in good spirits and put forward several plans to solve local hunger and cold, which made Emperor Qi Wen nod and praise. When he arrived at the imperial study, Emperor Qi Wen listened to Huo Chen's words, frowned deeply, and couldn't imagine that one wave had just flattened and one wave had risen again.

Emperor Qi Wen slapped his palm on the table in anger and said, "Since Chen Hai intends to rebel, arrest him immediately!" ”

"Father, I'm afraid Chen Hai is only paying for it, and he can't ask anything if he catches him, and his son has already sent someone to monitor Chen Hai, hoping to get clues." Huo Chen said calmly.

Emperor Qi Wen pondered for a while, and finally nodded, he couldn't let the Great Qi country be ruined.

"This time I went to Texas, did the emperor have something else to gain?" Emperor Qi Wen asked lightly.

Huo Chen's heart moved, if he wanted to talk about the harvest, first, he knew that Mu Wanqing was not dead, and second, Chu Qing and Yufei confessed to him, no matter what it was, Huo Chen didn't want to say it.

After a while, he said, "There is nothing else to be gained." ”

Emperor Qi Wen seemed to have a trace of anger flashing between his eyebrows, and he ordered Huo Chen to resonate: "Emperor, the situation is turbulent at any time now, if you want to stabilize the hearts of the people, you should set up a crown prince as soon as possible." ”

Huo Chen's face was pale, and he couldn't see his anger: "What are the plans of the father?" ”

"The third child is impulsive and not calm enough; The fourth old man is scheming and scheming; The fifth child is obsessed with the mountains and wilderness, and does not do his job. Emperor Qi Wendi's tone was extremely flat, "I think about it, the most suitable person is you." ”

This was already what he expected, Huo Chen didn't speak, he didn't feel happy at this moment, but more heavily.

"Emperor, I know you ......" Emperor Qi Wen paused, "I have already re-selected the princess for you, leaving several candidates, you see which one you like, as long as it is settled, you don't have to worry about marriage." As soon as all the dust settles, I will immediately issue an edict and make you the crown prince. ”

The light in today's imperial study is not very good, Huo Chen's face is half dark, he lowered his eyes slightly, and he couldn't see the emotion in his eyes clearly.

It is already obvious that as long as he agrees to marry the princess, the crown prince will be his. Although he is now in power, Emperor Qi Wen understands that Huo Chen will never do anything to persecute him.

Emperor Qi Wen secretly thought that if Huo Chen continued to be controlled by Mu Wanqing, then this throne would definitely not fall into Huo Chen's hands, so that Mu Wanqing would only have the opportunity to control the government and become the second Mu Yanrong.

"Father, there is only one princess of the son." Huo Chen's voice was firm, as if he was announcing.

"She's no longer your princess!" Emperor Qi Wen was a little annoyed, "Just for a woman, the country of Great Qi will be lost in the hands of your two brothers!" ”

"Erchen can do without the country." Huo Chen's face was as usual, and he said softly, "She is a good woman, and my father should understand that the only thing that his son can't give up, and she is the only one." ”

Emperor Qi Wen was a little stunned, how could he not understand that Huo Chen had already protected Mu Wanqing more than once, but at this critical moment, he must not be soft-hearted. Thinking of this, Emperor Qi Wen said angrily: "Any woman can become your princess, but she can't!" I really regretted letting you get married, and now she's gone! Life and death unknown! Do you want to be obsessed with it anymore?! ”

Huo Chen raised his eyes suddenly, a little confused, and was stunned for a while, before he asked, "How did my father know that Qing'er was missing?" ”

The fact that Mu Wanqing was abducted by Tong Sudong is only known to him and a few of them, even if Mu Wanqing encounters an accident on the way to Texas, there will be no news. The only explanation is that Emperor Qi Wen has already planted eyeliner beside him, and he has been confused!

Emperor Qi Wen's face was staggered, knowing that he was about to say something wrong, but his face was as usual, and he said: "I am the emperor, why is it difficult to find out this little thing." ”

But the matter about Mu Wanqing has always been airtight.

Mo Yan has been missing for a long time, his life and death are unknown, and the only people who know the details are Qian Jiu, Chu Qing, Yu Fei and Yin Yuexi, among these people, there must be one person who is the eyeliner of Emperor Qi Wen.

Huo Chenxinzong already had some eyebrows, and he couldn't dismantle Emperor Qi Wen, so he said: "Father, now that the situation in Great Qi is tense, let's talk about this matter later." ”

Emperor Qi Wen knew that Huo Chen would not give in easily for a while, and he would not force Huo Chen too much, so he had to nod and let Huo Chen retreat.

Today's weather is very good, there is no snow, and it is rare to see a ray of sunshine, Huo Chen looked at this white and vast world, and suddenly felt how empty his heart was.

After returning to the palace, he saw Dump Jiu pushing Yufei for a walk by the lake.

Huo Chen walked over, and the two just shouted Wang Ye, who seemed to be friends who had been familiar with each other for a long time. Huo Chen looked at Yufei's face, and saw that her face was ruddy, and there was a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth, so he knew that Yufei was in a good mood.

This reminded Huo Chen that when he was in Texas that day, Chu Qing and Yufei confessed everything and tried to prove their innocence.

But Chu Qing and Yu Fei didn't expect that Huo Chen had long known their identities and the existence of Tong Sudong. This made Chu Qing once again determined that he would follow Huo Chen for the rest of his life and would not betray Huo Chen.

But to Huo Chen's disappointment, even Yufei didn't know where Tong Sudong had taken Mu Wanqing.

"Do you remember the oath you took back then?" Huo Chen asked directly.

Tilt Jiu and Yufei glanced at each other, and said in unison, "Remember." ”

At the beginning, a few of them followed Huo Chen, although the time was different, they all said one sentence, that is, they would never betray Huo Chen.

Although this is a short sentence, it is sometimes difficult to implement.

Yufei's face changed slightly, and a trace of panic appeared on her delicate face, and she asked anxiously: "Is the prince going to ......?"

Huo Chen glanced at Yufei lightly: "It's not about you and Chu Qing." ”

Yufei breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about it, now that Chu Qing continues to stay in Texas, and she is unable to walk, she returned to the capital first, if Huo Chen wanted to kill them, then it should have been done a long time ago.

A trace of surprise appeared on Dump Jiu's beautiful face, his expression was heavy, Huo Chen asked like this, I'm afraid he already suspected one of them, he asked himself if he had ever betrayed Huo Chen, Chu Qing and Yufei also confessed everything, then the only thing left was Yin Yue's pity!
