When Mu Chaofu, the old prince of Qianguo, was still there, Wu Ben raised horses for him and won his trust.

The most important thing is that few people know that Wu Ben was actually Mu Chaofu's personal guard soldier, who retired due to battle injuries, and was later left in the palace by Mu Chaofu to raise horses, so he got a job.

If you want to say that in King Mu's mansion, apart from his biological mother and brother, there is anyone else who can be trusted, and this person is the only one.

When he arrived at the study, Mu Rong ordered someone to call Wu Ben over.

After a while, an old man with a rickety figure came to Mu Rong.

After looking each other up and down, Mu Rong took a deep breath and said, "Uncle Wu, I have wronged you by raising horses in the palace all these years. ”

"The prince is serious, if there is no old prince and quasi-old slave to serve the palace, how can the old slave still have his life, I am afraid that he would have starved to death on the side of the road."

Wu Ben said respectfully: "The old slave doesn't dare to let His Highness call the old slave Uncle Wu, the old slave is not worthy." ”

"Why don't you deserve it? My father said many times when he was alive that if it wasn't for Uncle Wu sacrificing his life to save him, he would have died under the knife of the thief and enemy, Uncle Wu has the grace to save my father and the entire Mu Wangfu, which is a great kindness. ”

Speaking of this, Mu Rong sighed at the right time and continued: "It's a pity that my father went early, and the palace was controlled by traitors, I am really ashamed of my father." ”

"Your Highness!" Wu Ben looked up at Mu Rong fiercely.

Mu Rong's heart moved, and he continued to say quietly on his face: "Although I have the heart to set things right, but unfortunately I have the heart to be weak, so I can only sigh." ”

"Uncle Wu, do you know that at the court meeting today, those people all asked Mu Chaobi to hand over the military and political power, but I can see clearly that what they really want is for me to give up the position of the son of the world and give Mu Chaobi the right to inherit the country. Mu Wangfu, now that the thieves have stolen Uncle Wu, except for you, no one is loyal to his father. ”

"No, Your Highness, there are still people in the land of Yunnan who are loyal to the old prince, and there are people who are loyal to the prince!"

"Who else?" Mu Rong asked deliberately rhetorically.

"Dingbian General Su Ding'an!"

Wu Ben's eyes swelled, and he continued: "General Su guards the frontier and has an army of 80,000, as long as the prince gives an order, he will definitely lead his troops back to the royal city to eliminate the thieves and rebels. ”

"Uncle Su, but Uncle Su is far away on the border, and the palace and outside the palace are controlled by Mu Chaobi's people, how can I spread the sound for thousands of miles?"

"If His Highness doesn't give up, the old slave will give up this old bone far away."

Hearing this, Mu Rong's heart moved, and he hurriedly walked out from behind the bookcase.

When he got closer, he held Wu Ben's arm with both hands and said, "Uncle Wu is really willing to go?" ”

"Never give up!"

"Okay, if this matter is successful, and the traitors are eliminated, I am willing to worship Uncle Wu as the middle father, and the whole palace will be based on Uncle Wu!"

It's a big cake that Wu Ben drew first.

"Your Highness doesn't have to be like this, please ask Your Highness to write a letter, and the old slave will set off."

"Okay, Uncle Wu later."

Without further ado, Mu Rong hurriedly wrote a letter and handed it to Wu Ben.

After thinking about it for a while, he took off his close-fitting jade pendant and handed it to him as a token.

Wu Ben took the letter and received the token, and then set off.

He was originally just an old slave raising horses in the palace, and he had a very low sense of presence in the palace, and no one cared about him when he left the palace.

In addition, Mu Chaobi was proud of the spring breeze at the moment, and his subordinates also relaxed their vigilance.

It's a breeze to get out of town.

Su Ding'an's station is remote, and even if he is riding a horse, it will take a day to arrive.

It would take at least two days to go back and forth.

Counting the needs of the army and so on, there is actually not much time left for Mu Rong.

Mu Rong knew in his heart that he couldn't sit and wait in the palace, he still had to fight for more opportunities by himself.

After thinking about it, I couldn't help but think of the old ministers of the palace at the early court meeting.

If you can get their clear support, at least you can have an extra layer of protection, and even if you invite Su Ding'an back, if you want to completely eliminate Mu Chaobi and his henchmen, you still need a starting point.

When he was thinking about how to meet these old ministers without arousing Mu Chaobi's suspicion, someone from outside the study suddenly came to report.

Calling someone in, Mu Rong frowned slightly and asked, "What's going on, you're in a hurry?" ”

"His Royal Highness, all supervise him, he went to the other courtyard to find the princess!"

"If you go to another hospital, you can go to another hospital, what's the ......"

Subconsciously, Mu Rong spoke, but halfway through the words, he suddenly woke up.

Mu Chaobi has coveted the princess for many years, and he has indeed done things that are contrary to human ethics in history.

So the thought turned, and a flash of inspiration occurred in my mind.

"Quick, you immediately go to the front and have people notify the officials everywhere, let them come back for a meeting, and say that I have something important to announce."

When the subordinate heard this, he turned around and was about to leave, Mu Rong's eyes flashed again: "Wait a minute, call someone to go to the angel again, invite the angel to come too, just say that I have something important, please ask the angel to witness it." ”

"Yes!"

After the people left, Mu Rong immediately called a few more people from the palace and rushed to the other courtyard together.

It is said that it is the palace courtyard, but in fact it is not far from the palace, it is just one street, Mu Rong and people hurried over, and it only took less than a stick of incense.

When he entered the courtyard, he learned from the servants that after Mu Chaobi came, he went directly to the princess's inner room.

Mu Rong's heart sank when he heard this, and he hurriedly quickened his pace, hoping that he could catch up.

Hurriedly came to the door of the princess's inner room, only to see that the door was empty, and the sound of the woman sobbing and pleading could be faintly heard inside.

Mu Rong's expression moved, waved his hand to let his subordinates wait outside, and hurried to the door.

took a deep breath, then pushed the door and entered: "Mother, are you there, Erchen heard from the second uncle that you are in ...... body."

As he spoke, he entered the room and happened to collide with Mu Chaobi and the princess who were entangled beside the bed.

I saw Mu Chaobi pressing half of his body on the princess, the clothes on the upper half of the princess's body were messy, her hair was also messy, and the dirty clothes inside could be faintly seen.

Neither of them clearly expected him to arrive suddenly, and both were startled at the same time.

However, the reaction was also extremely fast, Mu Chaobi quickly got off the princess with a cold face, and the princess also quickly turned around to tidy up her clothes.

Seeing this, Mu Rong stepped forward with a concerned look and said, "Second uncle, what's wrong with the concubine, did you accidentally fall off the bed?" Fortunately, the second uncle supported the mother concubine, otherwise the mother would have fallen. ”

Mu Chaobi, who was about to have a seizure with a cold face, was stunned when he heard Mu Rong's words.

After hesitating for a moment, he coughed dryly and said, "Ahem, that's it, Rong'er, why are you here?" ”
