Empress can't eat enough

Chapter 84
"My mother and concubine didn't die of illness, did she?"

Li Mu was only two years old when his mother and concubine passed away.If there is such an antecedent, the servants around the mother concubine were ordered to be buried with them, which is to cover up something.Perhaps what was covered up was the real cause of the concubine's death...

A mother would not have the heart to die when her child was so weak.

"It was the saint who gave you death." Li Xiaochun told Li Mu, "Before that, the saint never gave up killing you, just like your mother and concubine never gave up forgetting the third brother. He proposed to send you to the people, In fact, it means sending him out of the palace and then executing him. Your mother and concubine naturally disagreed, so he told her, then go to the mother and keep the son."

"Your mother's concubine's heart will never belong to him. At that time, he has no patience, and his feelings for your mother's concubine may only be hatred."

"I never thought that he really did what he said. After giving your mother and concubine a three-foot white silk, he hugged you to the queen to raise you."

"As for why he wanted to save your life, I'm afraid only he knows the reason."

Li Mu listened to all the past, and finally found the exact reason for the resentment in his heart, but it came from sadness, and he couldn't help himself, and tears of grief and indignation could not be restrained from pouring out of his eyes.

No wonder, his father was never willing to love himself... That's why.

He really wasn't his child... He wasn't his father either!Not only that, he was the enemy who killed his father and mother!

With the last tear falling, he hid all his anger, grief and resentment.

He slowly raised his eyes to look at Prince Li Xiaochun, and asked solemnly, "Why did Uncle Wang tell me this?"

"Uncle Wang..." Li Xiaochun couldn't tell him what kind of advice he had received from an expert, and he said with a turn of his eyes, "I took a nap on the way back to the Wangfu, and dreamed of my third brother... I, I can't live with my conscience!"

Li Mu still looked at him, seemingly in disbelief.

"Fourth brother," Li Xiaochun said again with earnestness, "You can't just commit the crime of framing the prince without knowing it... You should leave room to avenge your father and mother."

Li Mu still looked at him and didn't speak.

Li Xiaochun only felt that his appearance was like the way his third brother stared at him when he dreamed of his third brother at midnight, it was very frightening.

Gritting his teeth, he asked bluntly: "Fourth brother, tell Uncle Wang the truth, in the face of the current situation, do you have a plan? The saint...but he intends to punish you severely after you are convicted of your crimes." ! If he demotes you to a commoner, your life will be over!"

Li Mu's lips were pursed into a line, but he still didn't say a word.

Li Xiaochun speculated again: "Your next move will not be your father-in-law Wei Shilang, right? Although he has some skills, he is hard to beat with two fists and four hands. So far, the real culprit who wants to assassinate the saint has not been found out. .And the crown prince has led everyone to preemptive strikes in the court this morning, even Marquis Pingning killed his relatives righteously and asked the saint to punish you severely. Like this, you can't entrust all your hopes to a servant of the Ministry of punishment, can you?"

Although Li Mu never thought that he would be able to go out completely, but he believed that his father-in-law Wei Shilang would definitely be able to keep his status as a prince.

Of course, the premise of all this is that he is the son of the emperor.Now that he knows that he is not, then he can't sit still and wait for death.

"Since Uncle Wang loves his nephew, he should be willing to do something for the nephew, right?" He finally spoke.

Prince Li Xiaochun waved his hands again and again, and said with a suppressed voice: "I told you all this at the risk of losing my head! You must not drag me into the water! I don't want much in this life, as long as I can be mediocre. Peacefully, just live until the end of your life..."

As he said that, he felt aggrieved again, "I think you are a planner, and you have already made arrangements in your heart, so why is it my turn to help?"

Li Mu didn't care how much nonsense he said, Gu tore off a piece of white cloth from his bottom coat, bit his fingers and wrote a line on it, then folded it up and handed it to Li Xiaochun.

"What is this for?" Li Xiaochun looked around, afraid that someone would see it.

"Please also ask Uncle Wang to give this to Pingning Xiaohou." Li Mu said.

Li Xiaochun hastily uncovered it and put it in his sleeve pocket, but he said: "I'm afraid it's a big mistake for you to expect your cousin to help you! These two days in the court, Ping Ninghou and the prince have the same nostrils." Vent your anger, although he, the little duke, doesn't get involved, he didn't say a good word for you."

"Uncle Wang just give it to him." Li Mu insisted.

"That's all! That's all I can do for you." Li Xiaochun agreed.

"Uncle Wang don't read what I wrote." Li Mu reminded, "As long as you read it, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay out of it."

"Don't worry! I won't take a peek!" Li Xiaochun only felt that what was in his sleeve pocket was a hot potato, so he handed it to Pingning Xiaohou earlier.

He tossed and turned sleeplessly that night, got up early the next day, and stopped Pingning Xiaohou's car on the way for all officials to enter the imperial court.

At that time, the lights were in the dark, and without saying a word, he hurriedly threw Li Mu's "blood book" into Zhou Lingru's car, and then turned around and left.

Zhou Lingru poked his head to look, but almost didn't see who he was.

He recognized Li Mu's handwriting on the "Blood Book", and there were eight words on it:
The eight immortals cross the sea, each showing their magical powers.

After reading it, he held the "Blood Book" in his palm and frowned slightly.

King Huan finally let go of his brotherhood and wanted to take action.

After coming down to court, he stopped him and Prince Li Xiaochun.

Li Xiaochun looked around, afraid that someone with good intentions would see it, so he said impatiently: "What is Pingning Xiaohou looking for? I don't know anything."

"I also ask the prince to bring a word to Huan Wang for the next official..."

"Only this once! Say it quickly, what are you talking about?" Li Xiaochun turned sideways to him, his eyes were all the passing officials around him.

"Wait another six days."

Li Xiaochun was listening, but only heard these four words. He couldn't help being a little surprised, and asked, "No more?"

"Gone."

Zhou Lingru made a speech with a smile on his face, and he also hurried away.

This scene was witnessed by Eunuch Cao.If he sees, he sees. Unfortunately, this is not the only thing he sees.

For this reason, Li Xiaochun was invited to the imperial study before he walked out of the palace gate.

The emperor was reviewing the memorial without raising his eyelids.Li Xiaochun acted calmly, but in his heart he was full of sincerity and fear.

"Your Majesty." He knelt on the ground obediently, waiting quietly.

"Sixth brother, you don't need to be too polite." Tianzi Fang put down the memorial in his hand and smiled, but he was very polite.

After Li Xiaochun died, he said: "I heard that last night, the sixth brother met an old fairy with white hair and youthful face outside your palace. That old fairy has some skills, not only can repel your guards from the air, and finally It also flew into the air and flew away with the clouds. This, is it true?"

"Return to Your Majesty, it is true." Li Xiaochun replied without hesitation, "It was like a dream last night, I couldn't believe it for a long time!"

"Then what did the old god tell you? So that you acted a bit sneaky from last night to just now?" The emperor's eyes suddenly turned cold when he was talking and laughing.
