The solemnity in the palace sets off the silence of the night, such a quiet night that will make people feel lonely, but Ye Ningxiang rarely let Mu Xize sleep in her bedroom.

If it was in the past, he would have been unwilling, and would even do something that was brainless like finding Ye Ningxiang to theorize face-to-face. But now, Ye Ningxiang's abnormal behavior on this day is in harmony with his intentions.

In a blink of an eye, Mu Xize has been alone for more than a month, and it is certainly pleasing to him to be able to see the woman in his heart every day, but every day under Ye Ningxiang's nose, Mu Xize's freedom has been greatly restricted, so that there is almost no progress in the big thing he planned in his heart.

It was a great opportunity for him to do what he wanted to do with peace of mind.

The shadow deserves to be called a shadow, although he didn't even know how Mu Xize skillfully avoided the palace guards and ran out of the palace alone, the shadow still followed Mu Xize as soon as he left the palace.

Afraid that Mu Xize, who seemed to be unfathomable, would find his traces, the shadow deliberately followed slowly, every nerve in his body was tense like a straight band, and the exposed eyes on the veil stared at Mu Xize all the time, for fear of losing Mu Xize again.

The empty streets of Yingdu were empty, and what alarmed Shadow the most was that the person he had been secretly following disappeared in the blink of an eye. How could it be gone? He hurriedly looked around, and then looked into the surrounding alleys, looking for Mu Xize's traces.

"Are you looking for me?"

A low, ghostly sound reached the shadow's ear, stimulating every nerve around the shadow's ear. The shadow was startled, and quickly turned to look for the voice, only to see a person standing not far behind him.

The man was buried in the dark night, and it was almost impossible for people to see his appearance, but the shadow still recognized the person's identity at a glance: it was Mu Xize who he had been following a moment ago.

"You...... How could you possibly ......"

How could he go around behind him in an instant, this was not done by human beings at all. The shadow was suspicious, and at the same time he drew his sword, preparing to have a duel to the death with Mu Xize.

"I heard that you are Ji Lingchen's apprentice, seeing that you can do things under the emperor, it is estimated that you are not Ling Chen's descendant disciple, and you may have learned a trick in his ability to kill demons and eliminate evil. ”

Mu Xize counted the incompetence of the shadow, and walked in front of the shadow like a ghost.

"But you must know that I'm not very human, and I can get rid of your tracking in the blink of an eye, and naturally I can take your life in the blink of an eye. I know that you are the emperor's dead soldier, and being able to die for the emperor is a well-deserved death for you, but it will hurt your newborn daughter. I heard that your child will be two years old in three months, and two years old should be called Daddy!"

When Mu Xize said that he wanted Shadow's life, Shadow was still calm, and even had a feeling of seeing death as home, but when Shadow heard his daughter, he seemed to have suddenly lost support, and although he was still standing, he seemed to have collapsed there.

Ye Ningxiang didn't know that he still had a daughter who was less than two years old, and the stunning young man in front of him actually knew, not only did he know, but now he was using his daughter's life to force him to comply. How should he choose between fatherly love, family affection and loyalty and morality?

"Today's saint is notoriously ruthless and unrighteous, even if you smear her liver and brains, I'm afraid she won't accept your affection, but your daughter is different, there is only one daughter, and if she is gone, she will never come back. ”

After Mu Xize persuaded him several times, the shadow's psychological defense line completely collapsed, he sighed, looked up at the sky, and his tone was full of endless sadness: "Little boy, what do you want me to do?"

"It's simple, you just need to report to the emperor according to what I taught you, and the emperor won't embarrass you. ”

At the beginning of the day, before the early dynasty, the shadow silently sneaked into Ye Ningxiang's dormitory, kneeling on one knee, like a docile sheep.

"Back to the emperor, the shadow was found. Last night, Xiao Mu escaped from the palace and went to a place called the Drunken Dream Death Building, yes...... It's to meet a middle-aged woman with a haggard face. ”

It was a short sentence, but when the shadow actually spoke, he still stuttered uncontrollably. It was this stammering that shouldn't have aroused Ye Ningxiang's suspicions, but Ye Ningxiang did not show any suspicion, but responded to the shadow with a smile.

"Shadow, this time has worked hard for you, and the attitude towards you a few days ago was a little worse, it is all my fault, so you go back to rest and rest first, and if necessary, I will summon you again. ”

The simple-minded shadow didn't think much about it, but it seemed that a big stone had fallen to the ground in his heart, and it was a lot smoother in an instant, and then he kowtowed and thanked Ye Ningxiang and withdrew from Ye Ningxiang's bedroom.

After the shadow left, Ye Ningxiang showed an evil smile, her eyes burned with indelible killing intent, and what she called out was Xiao Mu's name.

The spring is sunny and full of flowers, and you really shouldn't nest in the palace on such a beautiful day, so Ye Ningxiang found a leisure time to take Mu Xize out of the palace, but the place where she went was Sun Hao's mansion.

"Why, Xiaomu, you don't seem to want to go to this Sun Mansion!"

Ye Ningxiang looked at Mu Xize, who was not in a high mood along the way, and had expected the reluctance in Mu Xize's heart, but she still deliberately asked Mu Xize.

Mu Xize also pretended to be quite complaining and glared at Ye Ningxiang, probably thinking that his actions were too naïve, so he couldn't help laughing out loud on the spot.

"Just now I was too naïve, Lord Sun has always been dissatisfied with me, this time the emperor can personally take me to meet him to ease our relationship, to be honest, I am still very touched in my heart. ”

"You still have a little conscience. ”

Ye Ningxiang also responded with a smile, but Mu Xize, who was immersed in the joy of being alone with Ye Ningxiang, didn't notice that Ye Ningxiang's smile had been warm and false at this time.

Out of the etiquette that people and ministers should abide by, Sun Hao took the whole family to kneel respectfully to welcome Ye Ningxiang's arrival, but it was just to welcome Ye Ningxiang, Sun Hao didn't even bother to look at the male version of the fox spirit next to Ye Ningxiang.

But contrary to Sun Hao's laziness to look at it, Mu Xize was concentrating on the appearance of the Sun family at this time, judging who the woman Gu Liancheng liked.

"Lord Sun, Xiao Mu knows that he doesn't like you, so I specially ask me to take him to apologize to you. ”

Mu Xize didn't expect Ye Ningxiang to explain the intention of coming to Sun's Mansion so bluntly, and for a moment he didn't react, or he couldn't understand Ye Ningxiang's true intentions.

Since he has been slow to reflect, and then using words to make up for it will be darker and darker after all, Mu Xize simply didn't talk or speak, but just bowed respectfully to Sun Hao.

Although Sun Hao always kept a tight face, because of Ye Ningxiang's face, he still invited Mu Xize into the house. It's just that in the process of Mu Xize and Sun Hao's contact, no matter how low Mu Xize is, how he shows his loyalty to the king, this Sun Hao seems to have lost his ears, and he didn't listen to a word.

Sun Hao not only didn't listen, but because Mu Xize's visit was more prejudiced against Mu Xize, he endured his anger in front of Ye Ningxiang and didn't do anything out of the ordinary to Mu Xize.

Mu Xize's judgment and alertness in front of the beloved woman all plummeted, and he didn't realize that coming to Sun Mansion to see Sun Hao was originally a bureau designed by her Ye Ningxiang.

Sun Hao is a stubborn person, the things he recognizes are usually not pulled back by ten horses, he doesn't like Mu Xize, so no matter how much Mu Xize pleases him, it will be in vain after all, if Mu Xize doesn't see Sun Hao as non-existent, it's okay, if he tries everything to please Sun Hao, it can only aggravate his image of a demon man in Sun Hao's heart, but it can't change Mu Xize's impression in Sun Hao's heart at all.

Although Mu Xize was far-sighted, he didn't know much about Sun Hao's temperament after all, but Gu Liancheng, who had contact with Sun Hao, was far away in Luzhou, so Mu Xize, who had always been strategic, was tricked by Ye Ningxiang without realizing it, not only did he not realize that Ye Ningxiang was deliberately instigating the relationship between him and Sun Hao, but he also thought about Ye Ningxiang's goodness in his heart.

After that day, Sun Hao really did as Ye Ningxiang expected, and almost every day in the court openly accused Ye Ningxiang of being a male favorite, although every time Mu Xize was mentioned, Ye Ningxiang would always pretend to be angry, but he never had the intention of punishing Sun Hao.

On the contrary, under Sun Hao's verbal attack, those officials in the court who were not very familiar with Mu Xize also had a very bad impression of Mu Xize, and even went so far as to follow Sun Hao to count Mu Xize together.

Ye Ningxiang was in a particularly comfortable mood this night, and even the speed of the batch and folding had increased a lot, and Mu Xize was summoned to sleep early. On the dragon bed, Ye Ningxiang closed her eyes, enjoying the comfortable feeling of Mu Xize kneading her neck, and there were a few times when she almost fell asleep comfortably like this.

However, Ye Ningxiang couldn't fall asleep so early, and she still had to convey some things to Mu Xize.

"Xiaomu, your massage technique is really getting better and better, if only you could keep pressing it. ”

When she said this, Ye Ningxiang's face was filled with a happy smile, sweet, and it was easy to wrap Mu Xize's heart in a layer of honey. She got up slightly, leaned her body towards Mu Xize's thigh, and then turned around and lay on Mu Xize's lap, with a rare trace of affection in her cold eyes.

"Xiaomu, I feel that you are a gift from God to me, and you can make me feel comfortable and happy at all times. ”

If you say too many ambiguous words, it will become false, so Ye Ningxiang deliberately remained silent after saying these two sentences, and closed her eyes again, as if she was enjoying the relaxing time now. Sure enough, as Ye Ningxiang expected, Mu Xize's mood was extremely good, and she could barely hide the joy in her heart, if she wasn't the empress, I was afraid that this stunning beautiful man would not be able to control her and sleep tonight.

Taking advantage of the joy in Mu Xize's heart and the time when he relaxed his vigilance, Ye Ningxiang suddenly changed the topic and said, "I heard that King Jianyang has found a god to heal his leg, and he is now recovering. I'm also incompetent as a mother, and I haven't even seen him for so many days. ”

Mu Xize smiled, and naturally held Ye Ningxiang's hand, his voice was gentle but extremely magnetic: "The emperor has all the opportunities, how can he take care of all aspects!"

"So I think I should invite him into the palace to have a regular meal with me, after all, I have done too many things to be sorry for him over the years. ”

"That's fine. ”

"Then set the date for tomorrow, tomorrow you will also have a meal with King Jianyang with me, and then call Gu Liancheng's daughter, it will be our family gathering, and by the way, talk about the marriage of Cheng Yong and Xiaomei. ”

Although Mu Xize, who was carried away by love, felt that Ye Ningxiang's arrangement was a little abnormal, he didn't think much about it, he just thought that what she wanted him to do, he should do it according to her wishes, so that she would be happy, she would be happy, and he would be happy.

"Xiaomu obeys. ”
