Two months later, Mu Sheng finally reached the age of twenty and officially reached the age of crowning.

Mu Sheng wore a crown and a tiara, came to Zhangtai Palace, the people present were mainly composed of officials of the imperial court Zongzheng Mansion and some members of the clan, after a cumbersome ceremony, the emperor sat in a wheelchair and personally put on a crown for Mu Sheng to symbolize the crown of Rao, even if the ceremony was completed.

Mu Sheng saw that although the emperor was in a wheelchair, his complexion seemed to be much better than in the past, and it was obvious that the dragon body was getting stronger day after day, so he was relieved.

After the ceremony, Mu Sheng thanked him, and the emperor was pushed back to the palace in a wheelchair by Gonggong Lu.

Mu Sheng naturally has to go home, and this ceremony is very symbolic, which means that Gongzi Sheng has completely become an adult at this moment, and has the ability to take responsibility for what he has done......

On the way back from the palace, Yang Liu ran all the way forward and said, "Childe, is it okay for Zhu'er to follow you?" ”

Mu Sheng heard this: "En! OK! I put her in a safe place, by the way, I asked you to arrange for Zhu'er's departure from the palace before, have you arranged it? I'm going to take my children away, and I'm going to go to Linzhang County when I'm older. ”

Yang Liu's expression was embarrassed: "Son, since she did not die in the rebellion, she must first go back to the palace to wait for the dispatch, the palace rules are strict, the palace people go out of the palace and enter the palace, all of them are registered, this time the Taiji Palace incident happened suddenly, no matter whether the person had an accident or not, live to see people, dead to see corpses, until now the palace is still statistically tracking down the missing or dead palace people, and they can't be busy for a while, and they don't have time to handle the palace maid's exit from the palace, and it is difficult for the slaves to quickly handle the palace exit procedures." ”

Mu Sheng frowned and said, "That's it!" I'll give you a sum of money, can you find the relevant person in charge of household registration in the palace to dredge up the relationship and help me make the child disappear? Anyway, there is a rebellion in the Extreme Palace, and many people may not be able to find it, so if you get her into this place, you don't have to go through the cumbersome process in the palace. ”

When Yang Liu heard this, his face changed slightly: "It's not impossible, I'm just afraid that Li Yu may not agree, the rules in this palace are that if a person dies, there will be a generous pension, if the person is so unknown and gone, even the corpse capital cannot be found, the palace will be regarded as a deserter, not only will there be no money to receive, but the family will also be affected." ”

Mu Sheng frowned and said, "That's it? ”

Seeing this, Yang Liu hurriedly said: "Childe, let's do it, the slave will take Li Yu into the palace first, the procedures for leaving the palace are indeed more cumbersome, Gongzi, you go to Linzhang County to take the domain first, this dredge the relationship, it may take at least a month to complete the procedures, and then you are sending someone to take Li Yu out of the palace, what do you think?" ”

Mu Sheng turned around a few times when he heard this, and thought to himself, he has no problem, Mu Sheng also knows that the rules in the palace are strict, even if it is to spend money to dredge up the relationship, that is, this is the efficiency of the work, so he has to agree.

There are still two days to go to Linzhang County to be a domain, Mu Sheng took Tian Hui to his father-in-law's house in the afternoon of the same day, Tian Jian also heard the news that Gongzi Sheng was going to go out of Beijing to become a domain, and specially came to the door to greet him.

Mu Sheng took Tian Hui into the lobby, and his mother-in-law came up to look at Tian Hui beside him, and said with a slightly sad expression: "Hey! Hui'er went so far, we don't know when we will see each other in the future......"

Tian Jian sighed and said, "Hey! It's not that Hui'er won't come back, but I can still come back to see you during the New Year's holidays! ”

The mother-in-law wiped her tears and looked at Mu Sheng, and instructed: "An Lehou, the two of you have been married for more than three years, and this Hui'er's belly has never grown, and our old couple are looking forward to their grandson......

Tian Huiling shyly shook her mother's hand and said:

"Mother......

Mu Sheng said in his heart, come on! began to urge the baby again, he had to say embarrassedly: "Mother-in-law, you have seen it all these years, my house has not been peaceful, and then I was forced to get involved in the battle for the storage position, now it's okay, Your Majesty asked me to go to Linzhang County, Shandong to take the domain, I went back to the fief with Huiling The first thing I did was to hurry up and make a baby, you will be able to hold your grandson soon, you can rest assured!" ”

Tian Hui's face turned red when he heard this.

The mother-in-law nodded with relief, and chatted with Tian Hui again.

Seeing this, his father-in-law Tian Jian took Mu Sheng to the guest house to chat a few words, and now Tian Jian seems to have done a good job in governing Su Neishi, and he has been rewarded by His Majesty.

Originally, Mu Sheng was worried that Tian Jian might be demoted out of Beijing under his influence, but now it seems that Tian Jian does still have a few brushes, and the emperor seems to be very satisfied with his business ability.

Coming out of the Tian family, on the way back, Mu Sheng sighed in his heart, in this era, he is this identity again, he doesn't have to worry about marrying a daughter-in-law, the state is in charge of distribution, you don't have to worry about anything, the only thing is to hurry up and make a baby, hey!

In the afternoon, Mu Sheng took Zeng Yun and went to visit Lord Zhao Zhao of Shaofu, without exception, Mrs. Zhao Darao was also a baby for the two of them!

On the way back, Yun'er pouted and said, "Husband, you heard it, when you settle down in the fiefdom, you can't use double cultivation to prevent pregnancy, it's time to have a baby." ”

Mu Sheng smiled when he heard this, grabbed Yun'er's waist and said, "Okay, tonight, this marquis will focus on serving you, the goblin." ”

Yun'er prevaricated: "Oops! You have to let Huiling conceive a child first, she is a wife after all. ”

Mu Sheng smiled: "Okay, well, I know, no matter what reason you find today, the goblin will definitely not be able to hide......"

Mu Sheng went up and down and kissed him.

Yun'er frowned and punched him, "Oops! You pervert, you let go, this is still outside, Guanghua Day, you are not afraid that others will see and laugh at you......"

In the early morning of the next day, outside Qingyang City, dozens of carriages were ready to go, Mu Sheng turned over and took the girls with him, and was ready to set off for the fiefdom of Linzhang County.

At this time, two horsemen flew at the gate of the city, it was An Guojun's son Xiu, and his doorman Wei Man.

Mu Sheng thought for a while and stepped forward to meet Gongzi Xiu, after all, the prince is down, he is the most likely popular candidate to sit on the throne of the prince, not the most likely, but the only possibility, Gongzi Xiu is also the future emperor, since the future emperor has come to see him off in person, he still has to get by in face.

Gongzi Xiu stepped forward and bowed: "Brother Sheng, since you fell out of favor, you haven't visited for so long, you won't blame Brother Jiu, right?" ”

Mu Sheng smiled and said: "It's okay, it's just the normal feelings of people, rich and noble, poor and lowly relatives and friends, it's just the normal state of the world, it seems that An Guojun is not exempt from vulgarity!" ”

As soon as Gongzi Xiu heard his tone and the title of An Guojun, he knew that the past friendship was written off, he sighed and said, "Brother Sheng......"

Mu Sheng waved his hand again and again: "An Guojun, Your Majesty has given me a knighthood, you can call me a knighthood." ”

When Gongzi Xiu heard this, he sighed and said: "Okay, Anlehou, I am also here to send you today for brotherhood, this is a long way, Anlehou has a safe journey." ”

Mu Sheng said with a smile: "Thank you An Guojun for sending it away, and I wish An Guojun to ascend to the crown prince as soon as possible." ”

Gongzi Xiuqi said: "How do you think that the position of the crown prince belongs to me?" ”

Mu Sheng said with a smile: "An Guojun, among the sons right now, although the prince is on the run, but the defeat is a matter of now, the seventh prince Chu has already gone to the mountain to cultivate, although the twelve princes have no contact with me on weekdays, but I heard that his personality is tyrannical, often drunk, and if he doesn't like it, he whips the servants and maids." ”

"Your Majesty will definitely not choose this kind of moody neurotic successor, I am going to Linzhang County, Shandong Province to be my comfort, isn't there only one option left for you An Guojun now? If the crown prince is not you, who else can you have? ”

"The prince can't turn over anymore, the other princes are too old to be on the stage, except for you, I really can't think of anyone else who can enter His Majesty's eyes, An Guojun thinks my analysis is right?"

Gongzi Xiu was silent for a long time and said: "You're good, Anlehou, fortunately you were born later than me, otherwise, in time, you will sooner or later enter the eyes of His Majesty, if you don't do it, you will also be one of my strong opponents in the future." ”

Mu Sheng smiled when he heard this, and said modestly: I am honored to be your opponent of An Guojun, I have no other advantages as a person, only one advantage, that is, self-knowledge, maybe yours is good, I was indeed born too late, I also think that if Your Majesty can hand over the country to you, it will be a good choice. ”

Gongzi cultivated: "You and my brothers can really talk to each other at this time, yours is good, I am not as peaceful as you, if I will never lose half a point to the prince in martial arts, why can he have it?" And I can only be an apartment in my life? I am not convinced, if I can't make a difference in this life, I'd rather die than give in half a point. ”

Mu Sheng said: "To be honest, An Guojun is actually not really peaceful, I just recognize the reality and know that I can't compete with you, so I just accept my fate." ”

Hearing this, Gongzi Xiu pointed at Gongzi Sheng and laughed non-stop, and Mu Sheng also laughed......

Mu Sheng was relieved at the moment, there was no stage for him to perform, after all, there were very few people in this world who could become the protagonist. There are only a few lights on the stage, and most people are destined to be spectators in this life.

No matter how the times develop, how science and technology advance, ranking, status, and identity are all scarce resources in society, and as long as the human species is still there, it will be driven by instinct to fight for these things.

Seeing Gongzi Sheng's convoy moving away, Gongzi Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Wei Man beside him: "Now the last stumbling block on this road is gone, so it seems that Your Majesty never intended to hand over the seat to him!" ”

Wei Man bowed his head slightly and said: "Don't be careless, although Gongzi Sheng is indeed not in the eyes of the emperor, but don't forget, although Gongzi Sheng is far away, there are still people behind him!" ”

Gongzi Xiu frowned and asked, "Shaofu Zhao?" If I ascend to the crown prince's throne, I don't believe he can stir up any trouble. ”

Wei Man shook his head and said, "Definitely, Your Majesty!" Gongzi Sheng has been completely out, if Gongzi wants to ascend to the throne of the prince, your biggest obstacle is precisely Your Majesty today, Your Majesty has experienced the rebellion against the prince, and will never have the heart to set up the prince in a short period of time, if there are courtiers who dare to write to establish the prince, they will definitely be subject to the thunderous wrath of Your Majesty, I think Your Majesty is most likely to hand over the country to you in the form of a secret edict. ”

"But in this way, the variables in the middle are too big, in case Your Majesty suddenly drives the crane to the west, and the Auxiliary Minister of Tuogu arranged by His Majesty goes wrong, and the decision of who to hand over the position to will fall into the hands of the important ministers of the court headed by Huo Zheng, the prime minister of Zuo, before he officially ascends the throne, the prince must not take it lightly!"

When Gongzi Xiu heard this, he said with a solemn face: "Thank you Mr. for mentioning it, it seems that you can't be too early, and I still have to act with heart next!" ”
