Chapter 297: Immortal Sword Formation
"Fifth Emperor Sister-in-law, have you ever given the Fifth Emperor Brother a belt?" Xiao Qingya blurted out very curiously, but after thinking about it, Mu Zhixi would only give it to Xiao Chengze if she wanted to give it to her.
Mu Zhixi thought for a while, "No." Why don't you wait for his birthday, and I'll make a note for him myself?"
"If the Fifth Emperor Brother can receive such a gift, he will definitely be very happy. Xiao Qingya muttered to herself, but felt that Mu Zhixi might not know what the meaning of giving the belt was, so she looked at her again and again.
"By the way, Mu Zhixi, do you like my Fifth Emperor Brother now?"
Of course, she wanted the Fifth Emperor Brother to be happy, but if it was Mu Zhixi's hypocrisy, then she felt that she would rather not need it.
"If you don't like my Fifth Emperor Brother, then don't give him a belt. ”
"Of course I like it, my husband. Give him whatever you want. Mu Zhixi answered as a matter of course, and her beautiful face was covered with a hint of arrogance.
Hearing this, Xiao Qingya was shocked, "You are too dissatisfied, you actually stepped on two boats?!"
"Why do you just step on two boats? I'm loyal to Xiao Yiyan, okay? ”
Xiao Qingya put down the belt in her hand and looked at Mu Zhixi with a serious face, "In other words, you and Xiao Chengze have already fallen out?"
Mu Zhixi replied disappreciatively.
"I don't look down on him. ”
"Isn't it, are you serious?!" Xiao Qingya's mouth opened wide, and she couldn't close it for a long time in surprise.
Mu Zhixi didn't expect Xiao Qingya to fully believe in herself, after all, Xiao Yiyan hadn't really believed that she loved him until now.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Qingya held her hand very excitedly.
"I've been the one who blamed you all along. There is no basis for words, but I still have to examine you carefully. But I'm sure you didn't lie to me. ”
Mu Zhixi looked at Xiao Qingya in a little daze, can this ninth princess actually have such a simple and lovely side.
Speaking of inspections, she really has some expectations.
Under Mu Zhixi's patient teaching, Xiao Qingya finally successfully changed the belt that was given away.
There was a difference between the front and back, which made Xiao Qingya have to sigh a few words.
"Fifth Emperor Sister-in-law, your embroidery is even better than the embroidery girl in the palace, you have to teach me more in the future. ”
"A princess, a champion, it sounds like a good match. Mu Zhixi was joking, and Xiao Qingya next to her suddenly blushed.
"Is it really a good match? Do you think the fifth imperial sister-in-law, my father and the emperor will agree to our marriage?"
It's really hard for her to answer this question.
In their previous lives, they couldn't be together, and they don't know if they can break through the barriers in this life.
In the final analysis, Liu Zhenyuan is just a new champion, not a noble child, and of course the emperor will not marry his favorite princess to him.
In their previous lives, the two were also forced to compromise, marry each other, and end up depressed.
Born in a royal family, fortunately but also unlucky.
Xiao Yiyan came back early today, and learned that Mu Zhixi was still in the palace and had not returned home, so she went to the palace gate to wait for her in person.
When she went out of the palace gate and saw Xiao Yiyan, Mu Zhixi smiled very brightly.
"Husband!" she trotted into his arms, her head rubbing against his chest like a clingy cat.
The weather was a little cold, Xiao Yiyan put the cloak on her shoulders, and wrapped her rough palms around her little hands, which was really a little cold.
"Why did you leave the palace so late, Concubine Su embarrassed you?" got into the carriage, Xiao Yiyan asked with concern.
"No, I don't. I taught the ninth princess to sew things, so it was delayed. Husband, why did you come to pick me up? She let him hold her, her smile like a flower, and her face was full of sweetness.
"I'm worried about you, so come and have a look. ”
He didn't hide anything, and he didn't say it implicitly.
"It's rare that you and Xiao Qingya have been together for so long. ”
"The Ninth Princess is very good, I'm very happy with her. ”
"Happier than being with this king?" Xiao Yiyan immediately answered and asked, with a slight jealousy in his long and deep eyes.
Mu Zhixi took the initiative to hug him and snuggled in his arms.
"Not really. Of course, I am happiest with my husband. ”
No matter what time it is, she can always easily soothe his emotions.
He gradually got used to saying things in his arms like this that made him very useful.
He bowed his head and kissed her forehead, and gently advised: "Protect yourself wherever you are, especially when this king is not by your side." ”
"Uh-huh!" she nodded heavily.
Thinking of what Su Guifei had said to her, she asked Xiao Yiyan with some concern.
"Husband, now that you have military power, is your situation quite difficult?"
In his previous life, an important reason why Xiao Chengze couldn't tolerate Xiao Yiyan was this threatening military power.
Since ancient times, monarchs have been afraid that their courtiers will overshadow their masters.
In their view, with a heavy army, there is capital for rebellion, which is the most unstable factor.
Therefore, what the monarchs of the past generations did was to divide the power of checks and balances, and not let the military power be concentrated in the hands of one person, so as to ensure the monopoly of imperial power.
Even if Xiao Yiyan had great military achievements, the emperor handed over most of the military power to him, which made her unbelievable.
Military power is a hot potato, and he has no ability, and he really can't touch it.
Xiao Yiyan is a person who has a clear distinction between public and private, he can rely on Mu Zhixi in other things, but he will never tell her these official things.
Especially when it comes to military power, the less she knows, the better.
But women are generally not interested in such things.
So, he was a little surprised that she would mention military power.
"This king's situation is not so bad, you don't need to worry. ”
He answered her, but she still asked.
"Now that the princes are fighting openly and secretly for the position of the crown prince, have you ever thought about who to turn to?"
The dispute between the princes has always been a sensitive issue, Xiao Yiyan frowned, and his eyes suddenly became dark.
He wondered if it was what Su Guifei said to her that made what she just said so abnormal.
"Mu Zhixi, listen up, this king doesn't need to take refuge in anyone.
"Whether it's the battle for military power or the battle for the crown prince, these are not things you should care about.
"You are not allowed to say those words in front of anyone but the king, understand? ”
He has always been patient with her, and he is afraid that she will not understand.
She knew he was saying this for her own sake, but she was just trying to help him.
After all, he is a man of heavy armies, and he is an existence that is feared by those in high positions.
She didn't want him to be calculated and die like in his previous life.
"Husband, I won't tell you, Concubine Su gave a condition, let me persuade you to support the second prince. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Yiyan did not show the slightest surprise, and asked rhetorically, "So, what are the conditions she gave?"
"She said she could let me and Xiao Chengze have a private meeting in her dormitory......"
Before the words fell, she saw Xiao Yiyan's cold eyes showing anger.
Su Guifei, that woman, actually wanted to tie up Xiao Chengze, it seemed that she was too long.
At this moment, Xiao Yiyan even had the heart to kill Su Guifei.
But Mu Zhixi's next words calmed him down a little.
"Of course I couldn't really say yes to her. But the thought of being able to give her a hard time in the middle of the river, I verbally agreed. ”
When she said this, those beautiful apricot eyes had a sly glint in them, and she was strategizing confidently, which made Xiao Yiyan wonder what her plan was.
In fact, he wasn't worried that she would really have a private meeting with Xiao Chengze in Concubine Su's bedroom, because she had already told him about it, and she would definitely not dig her own grave.
What he was worried about was that she wanted to deal with Su Guifei, but he was afraid that she would be calculated by Su Guifei if she was not careful.
In his eyes, his daughter-in-law is too simple to do such a calculating thing.
