The man sitting on the tiger skin chair held a white jade pendant in his hand, put it in his palm and rubbed it gently. The jade surface is smooth, the color is clear, and under the touch of the owner, it becomes more and more round and bright. The black pupils stared at the jade pendant, as if recalling something through its green jade body, but when it looked closely, it seemed that it didn't think about anything, and its eyes were still cold and dead.

"Your Excellency, are you really going to leave? Really not going to take revenge? The speaker was a gray-haired old man, with a dragon's head cane in his hand, and looked at the man on the main seat with a bitter heart.

"How many times has the palace master said that I am not your honor, I am just the palace master of the Snow Flower Palace. The palace master has listened to your words for twenty years, why do you make the palace master believe you? The man in black looked at the group of people kneeling on the ground, his eyes were cold, mixed with a hint of impatience.

"Palace Master, your innate Xuan Qi is the best proof of this. Your martial arts are self-taught, and all the tricks you know are the martial arts of the past. How could the old man be mistaken for following the Venerable for so many years? You are the reincarnation of the master of the Xuanzong sect, Emperor Bai......" The old man said excitedly, with a faint sadness on his face, "Twenty years ago, the old man led everyone to follow the palace master, just to be able to avenge our sect. Please also ask the Venerable to stay, restore the sect, and seek revenge from the herins! ”

After the old man finished speaking, the disciples kneeling on the ground shouted in unison: "Recover Xuanzong and seek revenge from the Yin Clan!" The sound was huge, the echoes were lingering, and the whole hall was getting more and more empty.

"What nonsense! How could the palace master be what the White Emperor was? Besides, the palace master didn't want to pursue thousands of years of old things, so Elder Xuan still didn't want to waste his efforts. The man in black stood up, raised his eyes and swept the people on the ground, and said, "Don't mention the matter of revenge, otherwise, you will be expelled from the Snow Flower Palace!" After speaking, the man in black waved his hand impatiently.

Elder Xuan was angry when he saw the palace master, and he didn't dare to make another attempt. So, with a sigh, he led the doorman out of the hall and respectfully closed the door of the temple.

The man on the tiger skin seat looked at the jade pendant in his hand in a daze, his eyebrows and eyes softened instantly, he looked up at the gray sky outside the hall, and sighed: "She is a person from the Xuanying Palace, how can I go against her?" If you don't take revenge, ......"

***

Kyoto, Ryukoku, Jonan Annex.

The house was very warm, with charcoal pots and stoves placed in every corner, and a layer of snow-white velvet blanket on the ground. There were a few pots of flowers that only bloomed in summer on the windowsill, and the curtains were not very thick, but there was still a trace of sunlight letting in. Therefore, the light in the house is not very dim, and with a few palace lights, the whole room is warm and bright.

Mu Chujin crossed the triple golden curtain, only to see Liu Shuiyan sitting on the bed, who had been giving birth for half a month. Her face was slightly pale, but her figure was still plump, and as soon as she saw Mu Chujin, she struggled to sit up from the bed.

"Sister, as soon as I heard that you were coming, I wanted to pick you up outside, but Wen Po didn't allow it." Liu Shuiyan stood up, and Mu Chujin hurriedly stuffed a soft pillow on her back.

"You should take care of your body, besides, it is cold in the country of Liu, why did you come out to pick me up? Isn't it sin? Mu Chujin said while tucking the quilt corner for Liu Shuiyan.

At this time, there was a sound of "wow-", and the child's cry came, very loudly. Hearing the voice, Mu Chujin was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Quickly bring the little nephew over and let me take a look?" ”

Liu Shuiyan took out a small soft ball wrapped in brocade from the cradle beside her and handed it to Mu Chujian. Mu Chujin took it with his strange hands, and a small oval face was revealed in the red gold thread quilt, wrinkled, not yet growing, powdery, but those small eyes narrowed into a line, overflowing with tears from it, it was really pitiful to me, extremely cute. Finding that the little nephew was still crying, Mu Chujin hurriedly raised his arm lightly, slapped the child's buttocks, and hummed an out-of-tune song in his mouth.

"I didn't expect my sister to coax the child?"

"I ...... I've only read it from a book......" Mu Chujin looked at the dough in the quilt with his eyes and pursed his lips slightly.

"Sister, what do you say should you name your child?" Liu Shuiyan tilted her head and asked.

"The name should be auspicious, indicating good health and happiness, not as good as ...... It's called Mu Xiangrui? Mu Chujin's eyes lit up, put his slender white fingers on the little face of the dough, and shouted softly: "Xiangrui...... Rarity Jr......"

"Giggle......" The little dough in her arms suddenly giggled, and her pink little mouth grinned, which made Mu Chujin slightly surprised, she hurriedly walked to the side of the bed with the child in her arms, and said to Liu Shuiyan: "Look, is he laughing?" He loves his name! Rarity? Auspicious sign? ”

"Okay, that's the name." Liu Shuiyan took the child, and also followed Mu Chujin to call Rarity, and the room was peaceful.

In the past few days since Mu Chujin came back, he learned that the state of Liu and the state of Li had been at war for more than a month, and the emperor of the state of Li had been lingering on the sickbed due to a strange illness, and he had no intention of doing anything in the court. As for the reason for the war between the two countries, it was that a small detachment of the Li State secretly attacked Qingcheng, a border gate city of the Ryuk State, wantonly provoked, and the two countries failed to negotiate, so they went to war. It is rumored that Li Guo has a bad attitude and fights the main battle, while Lu Guo wants to make peace, but has to fight. It is rumored that the emperor of Li is cruel, does not ask about state affairs, is extravagant, has countless beautiful relatives in the harem, and is addicted to wine all day long, but under the guise of calling himself sick, he has not been in the early dynasty for more than a month. Some people also say that in the early days of the new construction of the Li Kingdom, Emperor Li Jing's generosity and open-mindedness were all pretended, just to take the opportunity to win people's hearts, but they didn't expect that as time passed, their true nature would be exposed.

Mu Chujin listened to the rumors and remarks of the tea shop in the market, and had no intention of drinking this tea again. How could he ignore the government? How did it come to this decadence? Besides, Feng Rongxue is not such a person, and Mu Chujin doesn't believe these rumors at all. Thinking of this, Mu Chujin laughed self-deprecatingly, what were he still worried about him doing? Maybe this is the smoke bomb he released, deliberately confusing the enemy's sight, so as to plan his own plan, isn't this the power trick that the emperor is good at playing?

Mu Chujin put the broken silver on the dining table, and after thinking for a moment, she planned to go to Qin Youqing and ask him about the war between the two countries by the way. Although on the surface, it seems that it was the Li State that caused trouble and provoked the Lu State to be forced to go to war, but Mu Chujin believes that the reason for this will not be as simple as it seems.

Walking through the corridor, under the guidance of the eunuch's father-in-law, Mu Chujin came to the East Palace, the residence where the prince lived. The decoration of the palace is luxurious, the carpet on the ground is painted with a galloping pattern of ten thousand horses, and the lily tripod is placed in the house, burning with the fragrance of Rui Brain, and it is as quiet as a wisp.
