Chapter 4: Lobbying

In fact, it was not just the beginning, Shen Li's heart hurt for a long time. From the underwater cave of Basalt Mountain to the present, he remembers every injury suffered by his beloved child clearly. However, visible wounds can be healed and treated with the best medicine. But what can we do about what we can't see?

The next day, Mu Yan set off for the Night Country. There was not much grandeur, just an accompanying carriage, with Hongluan and a few Ouchi guards. Shen Li couldn't rest assured, and deliberately let Yuluo follow secretly. His order to Yuluo was: If the queen is in danger, he must protect her even if he fights for his life. If the queen wants to leave and does not return to the country, don't stop her, let her go.

It was like a big gamble, and he was forced to sit at the table and cut down all his pay. If you win, you'll be happy. But if you lose, you will never marry again for the rest of your life.

And Mu Yan's side really didn't plan to leave. She just wanted to take the opportunity to come out and breathe, and go back to the place where she had shared memories in the past to take a look again. Of course, persuading the Night King to surrender is the most important thing.

Mingguo's journey to the Night Country is still quite far, with the company of Hongluan, and the appreciation of the scenery along the way, perhaps because of the baptism of the years, Mu Yan has become a lot indifferent. I never felt bored, and with the carriage bumping day and night, I finally arrived in the Night Country.

The monarch of the night country has been hit hard because of the elopement of the little princess, and later because of the fall of the queen of the summer, he finally collapsed and fell ill, and all the affairs of the night country have been handed over to the prince to deal with, and only a paper edict is needed to abdicate.

Mu Yan's visit gave the old monarch a rare spirit. The Snow Country was defeated, and Shen Li was called the emperor, and the old monarch had already heard about it. Mu Yan's current identity is after a country, which is completely different from when he first came in disguise as a soldier.

The old monarch took the prince to greet him in person, Mu Yan couldn't bear such a big gift, and quite gently let the old monarch not need to do this, and took the initiative to apologize to the little princess. After all, it was her instigation that made the little princess and Chu Han never return. Seeing the old monarch so haggard now made her very unbearable.

After a polite greeting, Mu Yan did not beat around the bush, and directly explained the intention. The old monarch was silent for a long time, as if he was thinking seriously. Although the Night Country and the Snow Country are called the Three Kingdoms, they have always survived in the cracks and never asked about the world. When he owed Fu Qingheng a favor and promised to lend him troops, he knew that he would definitely have a conflict with Mingguo in the future.

But he really owed him and his sister too much back then, and Yunzhi was fascinated by the little general of the Snow Country, so he had to do this. Now that the Snow Country has been defeated, the third prince Shen Li is even more blue and far-sighted than his father, Shen Duyi. The Snow Country has been relocated to the borders of the Ming Country in a big way, which means that today, the Snow Country no longer exists.

Shen Li wanted the reunification of the Three Kingdoms, and the old monarch had long expected it, but he didn't expect that he would actually send Empress Mu to lobby. The old monarch is not familiar with Mu Yan, but he has already heard of the prestige of the Mu family in Mingguo. Now the Mu family has long existed in name only, and since the death of the high priest Mu Xiao, no one is qualified to succeed him.

However, when the high priest was still in power, the court had already talked about it, fearing that the high priest would overshadow the lord and sooner or later he would have a rebellious heart. Therefore, the demise of the Mu family, to put it bluntly, is mostly forced by the situation. But with the blessing of the sky, the Mu family actually produced a strange woman like Mu Yan, which made the third prince Shen Li fall for it.

What the two of them have experienced has been spread by the people everywhere, and even he, who is far away in the Night Country, can't help but hear about it.

From the disappearance at the beginning, to blending into the Snow Country army. The third prince broke into the border city alone, and 10,000 people besieged her without fear, just to save her from danger. In order to prevent others from calculating, carefully protect and pamper. It wasn't until the little princess got married later that the two of them were forced to jump off the cliff by Su Moxie. But even so, he still survived and returned intact.

On the day of the decisive battle in the border city, Su Moxie released the wolf soldiers, and when the soldiers of the Ming Kingdom were seriously injured, it was also this Queen Mu who rode in alone, and walked in front of the wolf king headed by him unarmed.

Until now, Shen Li became the emperor, and she became a country. Three thousand favors, all in one. Just like when Tianyin wanted to protect the Night Kingdom, because of the summer sound, the Night Kingdom could be safe, and because of Mu Yan, the Mu family would not be completely destroyed.

The old monarch thought for a long time before he muttered: "Since Empress Mu has come to lobby in person, how can I not agree? Shen Li is a Ming monarch, he can treat the people of the Snow Country so benevolently, then I should be relieved to hand over my people to him. ”

Mu Yan smiled and said, "Since the emperor sent me here to lobby, no matter which side has an accident in the future, I must be held responsible." I'm not afraid of the old king's jokes, when I first entered the Night Country, I thought, how nice it would be if I could live here for the rest of my life? The people of the Night Country are simple and kind, and I believe that even if there is a new king, they will continue to live happily. Of course, I am here today, and I also directly promise you a promise to the old monarch. As long as I am alive for one day, I will not let anyone hurt the people here. ”

The old monarch's eyes flashed slightly, and he blurted out: "Forgive the old man for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, Queen Mu is favored now, and whatever she says is what, the old man naturally believes it." But if Queen Mu falls out of favor in the future...... Or maybe it's no longer a queen, so what?"

Obviously, he asked a little too much, but Mu Yan didn't feel angry at all, and said generously: "Life is in the world, but it is only a few decades of time. The old monarch is worried about the future, so have you ever thought that if you are gone one day, what will happen to the people? After all, I am not an immortal, and what I can guarantee is only what I can do in this life. As long as the master of this world is still Shen Li, then the old monarch doesn't have to worry about anything. I can tell you very frankly that if Mu Yan is no longer the queen, then the monarch of the Ming Kingdom will definitely not be Shen Li!"

The meaning of this sentence is actually that as long as Shen Li is the emperor, the queen must be her Muyan. Unless one day the throne changes hands and Shen Li is no longer the emperor, then she is naturally not the queen. It's like a winged bird, or a branch, in pairs, and it will never separate.

The old monarch sighed lightly and praised: "If High Priest Mu is still alive, he will definitely be proud of your granddaughter." ”

Mu Yan shook his head and chuckled, "The dead are gone, and the living can be chased." Since the old monarch has agreed to surrender, I am doing a favor. Ignorance...... Does the old monarch want to know the whereabouts of the little princess?"
