Chapter 142: Exchange
On the other side, the carriage from the palace drove to the outskirts of Beijing.
"Brother, aren't we going to the Prime Minister's Mansion? This is not the direction to the Prime Minister's Mansion either! Li Mu leaned on the window of the carriage and looked out, and asked suspiciously.
"Since I want to marry Ruoxue, I naturally have to go to his mother's grave to pay respects before I am rude." Li Luo said lightly.
"Oh." Li Mu said, looking at Li Luo, a little weak-hearted.
Since the last time Li Luo came back from Wuji City, she has been a little angry with herself, and under her repeated questioning, she learned that the person who poisoned her brother was Yin Qianran, and she actually helped Yin Qianran, and she regretted it very much in her heart, Li Luo didn't want to take her own today, but she also wanted to apologize to Mu Ruoxue in person.
Soon the two arrived at a cemetery, and Li Luo paid his respects before turning to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
At this time, Mu Ruoxue was fiddling with medicinal herbs in her yard, when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her, and when she turned her head, she saw Li Luo standing at the gate of the courtyard.
"Why are you here?" Mu Ruoxue walked over happily.
"Of course, I'm here to discuss our marriage with the Prime Minister." Li Luo looked at Mu Ruoxue and smiled.
Mu Ruoxue laughed when she heard this, she didn't speak, but her eyes fell on the dirt stuck to the corner of Li Luo's clothes, and she was a little puzzled.
"Where did you just go? Why is there mud sticking to my clothes? Mu Ruoxue asked.
"I just went to your mother's grave to worship, and I accidentally got dirt." Li Luo said lightly.
Mu Ruoxue's heart trembled when she heard this, and she suddenly remembered what Mu Hanyun said to herself last time, he said that her mother's body had been burned, and what was left was just a mound of clothes, and there was a kind of sadness in her heart unconsciously.
"Actually, the dancer's miss is not in it, it's just a well-dressed mound." Mu Ruoxue said lightly, a trace of sadness crossed her eyes.
When Li Luo heard this, he said: "Ruoxue, I have always paid attention to this matter, since the last time you told me about your mother, I have already sent someone to investigate." ”
Mu Ruoxue was very surprised when she heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Then there are results recently?" ”
Li Luo nodded with a smile and said, "I can find out that your mother's body is now well preserved, and it was placed in the imperial tomb to the ice coffin by the emperor." ”
"The Ice Coffin of the Imperial Tomb!" Mu Ruoxue was very surprised, the imperial tomb is a place where only people with royal status can be buried after death, and the emperor actually put Shen Suixin's body in the imperial tomb!
"That's right, we just need to find an opportunity to enter the Imperial Tomb now, and then take the opportunity to transport your mother's body out." Li Luo said lightly.
Mu Ruoxue pondered for a moment and said: "Someone must help in this matter, and this person must be deeply trusted by the emperor, and he must be able to pass freely in the palace!" ”
Li Luo just wanted to say something, but was stopped by Mu Ruoxue in the next second.
"With your identity, although you can walk freely in the palace now, the emperor has always been very jealous of you, and there must be someone secretly following your whereabouts, if you suddenly have any abnormalities, it will definitely arouse the emperor's suspicion, so you must not go!" Mu Ruoxue said firmly.
Li Luo's expression on his face was sullen when he heard this, he naturally knew these things, but he was a little unhappy when he thought that Mu Ruoxue was going to find someone else to help.
"And who do you want to help you? Who else in the most Manchu dynasty can have such courage as this king? Li Luo said, with a little pride on his face.
Mu Ruoxue only felt very interesting when she looked at Li Luo's appearance, and chuckled lightly twice, "Of course!" ”
Hearing this, Li Luo's eyes stared at Mu Ruoxue tightly.
"Bai Zixu! He's the right fit. Mu Ruoxue said lightly.
Li Luo frowned when he heard this, and said with a vinegar taste: "Does he have the courage of this king?" ”
Seeing this, Mu Ruoxue originally wanted to say yes, but looking at Li Luo's eyes, she suddenly changed her words and said, "How can he be as handsome as you!" I don't have the courage of you! He's just fit to help me with this! ”
The brows on Li Luo's face when he heard this were relaxed, revealing a satisfied smile.
Mu Ruoxue only felt very speechless when she saw Li Luo like this.
Subsequently, Mu Ruoxue wrote a letter to Bai Zixu and asked him to meet in the Drunken Immortal Building an hour later.
After the letter was delivered, Mu Ruoxue packed up and was about to go out, but saw that Li Luo was already waiting at the door.
"Are you going to go to the Drunken Immortal Tower with me?" Mu Ruoxue looked at Li Luo who was standing at the door and asked.
"My princess is so beautiful, how good is it if she goes out alone in case she is coveted by those unscrupulous people! Of course, I want this king to accompany you. Li Luo said lightly.
Mu Ruoxue only felt speechless when she heard this, and said, "If you go, how can I talk to Bai Zixu about business?" ”
"It's okay, you can go in and talk to him about you, I'm protecting you in secret!" Lai Lok Dao.
Mu Ruoxue didn't say anything more when she heard this, so she could only let Li Luo go.
Subsequently, Mu Ruoxue came to the private room where she and Bai Zixu had last met in the Drunken Immortal Building on time, and she was already waiting inside when she saw Bai Zixu as soon as she went in.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Mu Ruoxue said lightly, and then sat opposite Bai Zixu.
"No, if the snow asks me, I naturally have to arrive first." Bai Zixu said, still with a gentle smile on his face, and poured Mu Ruoxue a glass of wine.
"Lord Bai, in fact, I came to you today because I want to ask you for help." Mu Ruoxue Road.
"I know, Ruoxue won't be so simple every time she looks for me, you say, I will help you if I can do it." Bai Zi said with a false smile.
"I hope that Lord Bai, you can help me enter the imperial tomb." Mu Ruoxue said directly.
Bai Zixu was a little surprised when he heard this, and he was also very puzzled why Mu Ruoxue suddenly talked about the imperial tomb.
Looking at Bai Zixu's puzzled face, Mu Ruoxue said again: "My mother's body was placed in the ice coffin of the imperial tomb by the emperor, and I want to take my mother's body out and bury it well." ”
Bai Zixuyan's face was even more surprised when he heard this, and said: "Ruoxue, this matter can't be said nonsense, the ice coffin of the imperial tomb has always been used by the queens of the past dynasties, do you have any conclusive evidence for saying this now?" ”
Mu Ruoxue knew that Bai Zixu would not believe it easily, after all, she was also very shocked when she first heard about this matter, the royal ice coffin was indeed used by the queens after the death of the previous dynasties, Mu Ruoxue naturally knew how powerful it was.
"Lord Bai, how can I talk nonsense about this kind of thing, I have already checked it, this matter is a fact, so I want to ask the White King for help, and I also hope that the White Lord can help me, I can help the White Lord deal with the four princes." Mu Ruoxue Road.
After thinking for a moment, Bai Zi said: "Ruoxue, I don't know much about the emperor's past, but I also know a little about your mother's affairs, and now even if your mother has been dead for many years, he still leaves your mother's body by his side, which shows how much the emperor attaches importance to your mother, if you really take the body away, it is estimated that the emperor will not easily let go of your Prime Minister's Mansion, have you really thought about it?" ”
Mu Ruoxue didn't say anything when she heard this, but just looked out the window.
Anyway, she has already decided to help Li Luo restore the previous dynasty, and it is only a matter of time before she tears her face with the emperor, and besides, her mother's death was done by the emperor, and now she keeps her mother's body by her side from time to time, and it feels disgusting to think about it!
Now that she knows the truth of this matter, she must bring her mother's body out as soon as possible, so that her mother can be buried in peace, which can be regarded as her repaying the love of the original owner.
"I've figured it out! I have to do this! Now you are the most trusted person around the emperor and my friend, only you can help me in this matter, you can rest assured, even if this matter is revealed in the end, I will definitely not involve you! Mu Ruoxue said, her eyes were determined and determined.
Bai Zixu frowned when he saw this, this matter is not trivial, and now most of his own people in the Royal Praetorian Guard have been removed by the emperor, if this matter is revealed, the emperor will definitely kill Mu Ruoxue, he can't let Mu Ruoxue get into danger, this matter must be considered in the long run.
"The emperor has never really trusted me, he just needs me to help him stabilize the frontier, but in fact, his power on me is secretly reduced, and I have no intention of fighting for the throne, you know this." Bai Zi said in vain, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
It's not that he's afraid of death, it's just that he really doesn't want anything to happen to Mu Ruoxue, this matter is too dangerous, and it pokes the emperor's heart, Shen Suixin is definitely not as simple as just a medical girl, the emperor has kept its body for so many years, not just because he likes her, but also because of the world of the Nangong family.
It's just that these Mu Ruoxue don't know now.
When Mu Ruoxue heard this, she knew that Bai Zixu was unwilling to help her, so she frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Since this is the case, Lord Bai has never heard me say these words today!" ”
She didn't want to be embarrassed, and it was dangerous.
"If Lord Bai's words now are heard by your mother, I don't know how sad she will be." Li Luo's voice came from behind the screen in the private room.
Mu Ruoxue and Bai Zixu were shocked when they heard this, and looked towards the screen, only to see Li Luo slowly walking out from behind the screen.
"What a kind of affectionate person the emperor is, I believe that Bai Wang Ye has a deep understanding, you won't forget about your mother's poisoning so quickly!" Li Luo looked at Bai Zi and said lightly, his voice returning to his usual coldness.
Bai Zi squeezed the wine glass tightly when he heard this, for him, his mother's thoughts were the deepest hatred in his heart!
