Sixty-three

In an inn in Miaojiang, a woman in plain clothes stood in the house. The woman's clothes are the clothes of the Central Plains, she has long hair and a shawl, and she also wears a hat on her head.

After a long time, he pushed open the door of the inn, and behind him was a man in black with a black cloth on his face. He sneaked out the door.

After entering the door, he knelt down and said, "Madam! Harsh had a negative entrustment, so the princess ran away. ”

The woman said slowly, "It's okay! If the princess wants to save the Gu King, she will definitely go to Gu City. And to go to Gu City, you first have to enter the Wanshan Cave, and the method of cracking the Wanshan Cave is in the Firefly Valley. As long as you fortify there, you will definitely be able to catch the princess. ”

"Yes, you know!"

After the woman finished speaking, a vicious and evil smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, as if she was in control of this ambush.

In a forest, Miao Rong, Chun Yuyao, Hongyi and Xichen are resting. Xichen asked, "Miao Rong, who are you?" ”

Miao Rong explained: "I am Princess Miao Jiang. ”

Hongyi smiled: "It turned out to be Princess Miaojiang, I said, as soon as she opened her mouth, she helped us take the yin and yang rolls in such a big breath." I said, little girl, if you admit your identity so quickly, aren't you afraid that we will be unfavorable to you? ”

Miao Rong said with a disdainful face: "What's so terrible, Miao Jiang is my territory, if you really have bad intentions towards me, I dare to guarantee that you will never leave Miao Jiang alive." ”

"So confident?"

Miao Rong nodded, "There are a lot of poisons in Miao Jiang Gu worms, and Miao Jiang people will use Gu poisons. If you dare to be unfavorable to me, it will be the entire Miao Jiang that will attack you. Also, Miao Jiang's Gu insect poison can be seen everywhere, I think it's too easy to poison you Gu, so you'd better be honest. ”

"We're here to seize the Yin Yang Scroll, and if you reveal your identity so easily, aren't you afraid that we will threaten you?" Xichen interrupted the conversation between Hongyi and Miao Rong and asked

"I don't think the three of you are like some vicious and evil people, so I'll take a gamble. Also, I, Miao Rong, have always used people without suspicion, and suspects don't need to use them, so I believe in three times once. It's just, I want to ask, did you come to Miaojiang just for the Yin and Yang roll? ”

"Yes, take the yin and yang roll, let's go!"

Miao Rong nodded, "That's good!" As long as you don't do anything that endangers Miao Jiang, I can give you the Yin Yang Roll. However, we still have to follow the rules first, you have to help me save people first, and then I will take you to find the Yin Yang Scroll. ”

"Okay, I promise you!"

"And who are you trying to save?" Chun Yuyao asked

"Guess!" Miao Rong replied casually

Chun Yuyao thought for a while before he said: "What can make you so worried and so desperate to save is nothing more than three types of people, one is parents, the second is brothers and sisters, and the third is the person you like." I'm talking about, is there one of them? ”

Miao Rong praised: "It's so smart! You guessed it! Okay, let's not mess with you, let's hurry. ”

After the few people finished speaking, they almost stopped, so the four of them continued to hurry.

On the palace hall of the Northern Lion Kingdom, Mu Yue was dressed in a dragon robe and sat on a dragon chair. Facing down stood neatly composed of civil and military officials.

A woman over half a hundred years old, of medium stature, and a serious face, stepped forward and admonished: "Your Majesty, the Eastern Wilderness Country, a small border country attached to the Northern Lion Country, will arrive in the Northern Lion Country in three days. One is to send tribute, and the other is to participate in the bonfire festival in the Northern Lion Kingdom five days later. ”

Mu Yue responded: "I know, three days later, the Marquis of Nanyu will go to greet the envoys!" ”

The woman who admonished bowed, "Minister, obey!" ”

Nan Yuhou's name is Yu Can, she is the mother of Yu Yaorong and Yu Yaoxue, Nan Yuhou only has two sons under his knees, the eldest son is married to Mu Yinlin, and the younger son is married to Mu Zhijun.

After Yu Can stepped back, a woman with public facial features and a medium stature stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen wants to sue King Jing." King Jing had no royal law and arbitrarily detained the officials of the imperial court. As he spoke, he knelt down and saluted directly: "Please also ask Your Majesty to be the master of the ministers." ”

Kneeling on the ground to sue Mu Zhijun was the prime minister of the dynasty, Chang Jingyi. This time she came forward to sue Mu Zhijun, and she didn't have to guess to know that she must have come for her sister Chang Hailu.

Mu Yue asked, "King Jing, is there such a thing?" ”

Mu Zhijun stepped forward, bowed, and said bluntly: "This is indeed the case!" But, there is a reason! ”

"Oh?" Mu Yue was puzzled.

Mu Zhijun bowed and explained: "Your Majesty, after the court that day, Lord Chang blocked the minister's way and asked the minister to go to the mansion for a gathering. said that he invited a few famous chefs from the Central Plains to ask the minister to taste the cooking skills. His Majesty knew that the minister loved food, so the minister went. But after going, I found that the drunkard of Chang was not interested in drinking, and she invited the minister to go, which was another important matter. She wanted the minister to leak the exam questions, but the minister refused after hearing it. Turn around and leave the house. But she didn't expect that in order to let her daughter go to high school, she sent Gongzi Chang to King Jing's Mansion in the middle of the night to sleep with the ministers. She thought that if she sent her son to King Jing's mansion, the ministers would help her. However, not only did the minister not help her, but also refused with all his might. In the end, Chang Mo fell off the list, and Lord Chang felt that it was the minister's fault, so early that day, Lord Chang came to King Jing's Mansion to make trouble, insulted the minister's concubine, and beat the minister's concubine. In the end, in front of the minister, he directly cut off the heads of the two subordinates in the minister's mansion, Your Majesty, such an act is really bad, but the minister is not angry, so he imprisoned Lord Chang in the dungeon, so that she can reflect and think. ”

As soon as the words fell, Chang Hailu stood up, knelt down and defended: "Your Majesty, even if the minister has great courage, he doesn't dare to kill people in front of King Jing." Your Majesty, King Jing is framing his ministers. The minister admitted that he had talked to King Jing about leaking the exam questions, but when the minister sent the dog to King Jing's mansion, King Jing secretly told the minister about the questions. ”

Mu Zhijun chuckled at the corner of his mouth, "Lord Chang, do you have physical or human evidence for what you said?" ”

One sentence made Chang Hailu choked speechless. Mu Zhijun sent a master to sneak into Chang Hailu's room and told Chang Hailu in an oral way, so she really didn't have any human and physical evidence.

Seeing that Chang Hailu couldn't spit out a word for a long time, Mu Zhijun's eyes became a little dark, and he said ruthlessly: "Lord Lou, please tell Lord Chang, what is the crime of framing the princess?" ”

Lord Lou, formerly known as Lou Weitong, is the imperial history of Mu Yue's personal seal. It is responsible for supervising the dereliction of duty and illegal acts of the imperial court and princes, and is also responsible for keeping the archives and documents of the imperial court.

Lou Weitong saluted Mu Yue, and then saluted Mu Zhijun, showing respect, he explained: "Your Highness, according to the national law of the Northern Lion Kingdom, the imperial daughter is framed and sentenced to death. ”

Chang Hailu and Chang Jingyi knew that Mu Zhijun was arrogant, but they didn't expect that Mu Zhijun's arrogance was no longer in private, but on the surface. With no one in her eyes, isn't she afraid that one day she will kill herself?

Mu Zhijun's dark gaze gradually calmed down, and she said calmly: "Lord Chang, although you don't have any witnesses, you have one in this hall. ”

Mu Zhijun said and saluted Mu Yue, "Your Majesty, please also ask Your Majesty to send someone to bring your ministers over this morning, and Hou Hou's witness outside the hall will be brought to the main hall." ”

Mu Yue waved his hand, "Yes!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After a long time, Changyu walked up to the main hall, he walked unhurriedly, came to the center of the main hall, knelt down and saluted: "Changyu, the son of the secretary and young eunuch Chang Hailu, greets Your Majesty, long live Long live, long live!" ”

"Get up and talk back."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Mu Zhijun asked: "Changyu, this hall will ask you, were you instructed by someone to be sent to the palace in the middle of the night, just to exchange yourself for the examination questions of this imperial examination?" ”

"Yes!" Changyu answered without hesitation

"And who are you instructed by?"

"Back to Your Highness, it is Xiaomin's mother, Chang Hailu!"

As soon as these words fell, Chang Hailu in the palace suddenly became irritable and scolded: "Changyu, you slut, you dare to frame this official." ”

Chang Hailu jumped like thunder, stood up and walked over to Chang Yu is violent beating, scolding and scolding while slapping his mouth: "You little slut, you dare to frame this official!" This official must kill you today......"

can have such a skillful move, it can be seen that it is not the first time that Chang Hailu has beaten and scolded Changyu like this. Today, Chang Hailu can lose his physique because Chang Hailu is indeed favored by Chang Jingyi's lawlessness.

This move made the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty talk a lot. But because Mu Yue didn't speak, everyone didn't dare to say anything. Mu Yue sat on the dragon chair, as if watching a play, silently. It was up to Mu Zhijun that they quarreled and fought.

Changyu was beaten by Chang Hailu and hid behind Mu Zhijun again and again, crying in her mouth, "Your Highness save me, Your Highness ......"

Mu Zhijun's face returned to his previous ruthlessness, and he said coldly: "Come on, suppress Lord Chang." ”

As soon as these words fell, the two guards walked to the main hall and pressed Chang Hailu to the ground, and Chang Hailu scolded angrily: "Changyu, you little slut, you colluded with King Jing and framed the official." I knew you would betray the official, who should have strangled you to death when you were born......"

"Lord Chang, this is the palace, not the vegetable market, Lord Chang is foul language, insulting to the saint. Lord Chang, aren't you afraid of the emperor's punishment? Also, Lord Chang, Chang Xiaogongzi is your own son, if you didn't usually abuse him, he wouldn't have betrayed you. Mu Zhijun said, knelt on the ground, and bowed, "Your Majesty, Lord Chang slandered the princess, and also used the hall as a folk market. ”

Mu Yue nodded, "It is a capital crime to frame the princess, the palace is unruly, the exit is dirty, and the crime is added to the first degree!" When someone came, he took off Chang Hailu's official uniform, deposed Chang Hailu from his official position, and was put in prison, and three days later, he was sentenced to death. ”

Mu Zhijun kowtowed, "Your Majesty Shengming!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Chang Jingyi immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty think twice!" Your Majesty, the courtier's sister is at fault, but the crime is not to death, please let Your Majesty be lenient! ”

And Chang Hailu was even more frightened, his face was pale, his heart was pounding, and he desperately begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the minister knows that he is wrong, Your Majesty, spare your life, Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......"

Seeing that Mu Yue, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was indifferent to Chang Hailu's plea, Chang Hailu turned around, climbed in front of Mu Zhijun, and begged: "Your Highness, Your Highness, the lower official knows that he is wrong, the lower official begs you, spare your life!" Your Highness ......"

Mu Zhijun said indifferently: "Your Majesty wants to offend you, what's the use of begging me?" ”

After these words, Zhao Lingwei had already walked into the hall, one of them pulled Chang Hailu's arm, let Chang Hailu struggle desperately, the two still dragged Chang Hailu away mercilessly, but Chang Hailu was still shouting: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......"

After watching Chang Hailu being dragged away, Chang Jingyi's legs were weak and he sat down on the main hall. She bit her lower lip stubbornly, her eyes became fierce, and her hands were clenched into fists, full of unwillingness. She secretly said in her heart: Mu Zhijun, let's see.

After the court went down to the court, all the people dispersed.

After Mu Zhijun returned to King Jing's Mansion, he bathed and changed his clothes and changed his court clothes. In the future, in the courtyard, the scenery is infinite, Mu Zhijun came to a small pavilion in the courtyard alone, she instructed Yu Yaorong to make her a few plates of pastries, a pot of tea brought to the pavilion, put on the stone table in the pavilion, she was alone while enjoying the scenery in the courtyard, while eating pastries and tasting strong tea.

After a long time, Changyu came to the pavilion, and after seeing Mu Zhijun, he knelt down and saluted, "Changyu greets His Highness!" ”

"Get up!"

"Your Highness!" Changyu stood up

"Today's court affairs, you did a good job!"

Changyu saluted, "Your Highness is very smart, Changyu is just acting according to orders." ”

"What's important about you?" Mu Zhijun asked

Changyu didn't understand what Mu Zhijun meant, so she asked, "What does Your Highness mean?" ”

"If you don't die, you can't leave the Northern Lion Country. The prime minister will not let you go, and the palace will not dare to keep you in the world. ”

After Changyu heard this, she understood the meaning of Mu Zhijun's words. Mu Zhijun was thoughtful and wanted a personal thing for Changyu to prove that Changyu was dead. The prime minister had a holiday with Mu Zhijun, and today in the main hall, it is because of Changyu's testimony that Chang Hailu will be indirectly killed, if the old case is retried in the future, the first thing the prime minister wants to arrest is Changyu. But if Mu Zhijun kills Changyu today, then the prime minister will only think that it is because Changyu helps Mu Zhijun do things, and Mu Zhijun is afraid that Changyu will betray him in the future, so he will kill him, so that Changyu is a dead person, even if the prime minister has the heart to retry the old darkness, but Changyu is already dead, there is no proof of death, and she also lacks important witnesses. This does not pose any threat to Mu Zhijun.

Changyu took a red rope from her wrist and handed it to Mu Zhijun, after Mu Zhijun took it, Changyu explained: "Your Highness, this red rope is something that Changyu never leaves, and now hand it over to Your Highness." ”

Mu Zhijun nodded, "Okay, the main hall has arranged a carriage and Sanmin guards in the backyard to escort you and Zhixi away." ”

After Changyu heard this, she understood in her heart that Mu Zhijun sent someone to escort her, just to make sure that Changyu had left the Northern Lion Country, so that she would be relieved.

Changyu knelt down, bowed, and said solemnly: "Your Highness, your great kindness, Changyu is unforgettable!" ”

Mu Zhijun waved his hand, "Go!" ”

"Yes!"

After speaking, Changyu turned around and retreated.
