Xuanmen Xiaoguo Shi is divination again

Chapter 875
The fourth day of March, the day of departure.

Civil and military officials rushed to the city gate to see the army off as usual, and the emperor also toasted the Mu brothers and sisters who had their seals on as usual, mixed with a pinch of dry Pingguo wine.

When she got on the horse, the little girl turned her head and looked at the city tower. She saw the veteran standing on the top of the tower, and then saw the girl in the crowd who was carefully guarded by Prince Jin's side.

Mu Wenjing, who was holding a spear in his hand, slightly lowered his jaw at her, while Mu Xiyin in the crowd nodded slightly to her, and the little princess, who was always dressed in fiery palace attire, blinked and compared her mouth.

She said, "waiting for your triumphant return".

The plump white pigeon led two goshawks to fly across the sky, Mu Xici stretched out his hand to catch a piece of bird feathers, Mo Junli did not know when he took Li Yunchi to squat on the wall, and gesticulated to shoot a bird that was only them. A gesture that only three people can understand.

The flags are rolled up and brushed across the stone stacks, and the ink characters on the stone plaques of the city gate are covered by the faint light of the upper layer by the early sun.

It turns out...it's such a feeling to be missed by others.

The little girl curled the corners of her lips silently, then whipped the horse away without looking back.

——In the previous life, the soldiers respected her and the officials feared her. Mo Shuyuan wished she could die outside the customs. Not to mention that there were people who were thinking about going to war, and there were not many people left to see her off .

At that time, she was used to being alone, and she was mostly serious in the camp on weekdays.

As time went by, she also thought that she no longer needed other people's concerns. It was only today that she suddenly realized that she didn't need it. It was obviously that she had been alone for a long time and was numb.

——Now... She even greedily wants Ajie and the others to miss her a little more.

Mu Xici held the rein in his palm, and couldn't hold back a chuckle from his throat. Mu Xiuning, who heard the laughter, raised his eyebrows slightly in response.

I don't know if it was his illusion, but the moment he left the army, this little girl seemed to come back to life suddenly, with a different layer of anger on her body——

Like a fish swimming into the sea, like a bird returning to the forest.

"Today is a rare day to rest and take a bath. It's not good for Mr. Xiang to live at home and enjoy leisure. Why do you suddenly have such a great interest and come to this king?"

In Nan'an Palace, Mo Shuyuan looked at the old man who came in a hurry. In the past two months, Shi Ya had a lot of temper tantrums with him because of Mu Shiyan's pregnancy. Zhong may not see him very much for a long time.

He thought that according to the temperament of the grandfather and grandson, he would fight with him until Mu Shiyan gave birth, but in the end, he couldn't hold his breath so early.

Sure enough, this old man is still reluctant to part with the power and wealth in his family.

The young man narrowed his eyes and smiled lightly. He was about to speak a few more words, when he saw Liao Zhen hastily put up his sleeves and bowed: "The old minister came here today, it must be for important things."

"My lord, this old minister is here to give you good news—the thing you have been worrying about before is finally settled."

"What this king has been worrying about before..." Mo Shuyuan frowned, and subconsciously repeated what Liao Zhen said. After a while, he came back to his senses, and suddenly reached out and grabbed the old man's arm. Are you talking about military power?!"

"Have you found a general who is willing to join forces with us?"

"Of course the old minister is referring to the military power." Liao Zhen nodded, and while speaking, he glanced at Mo Shuyuan with a little disgust, "If it wasn't for that, why would the old man rush here at this time? As you said, today is a rare day Your head is fine, why don't you rest at home by yourself?"

Mo Shuyuan laughed when he heard the words, and refused to accept Liao Zhen's words for a while.

Seeing this, the latter didn't say much, he just changed the topic and found himself a step down: "Come on, my lord, this is not a place to talk, let's find another tea room and study room, so we can discuss it." Let's discuss this matter of military power."

"What Xiangye said is very true. This is really not a place to talk, please." The young man nodded slightly, and made a "please" gesture after speaking, leading Liao Zhen all the way to the study.

After the two entered, they immediately retreated the servants who were sweeping the room, and when the last servant in the room left and closed the door, Liao Zhen opened his mouth slowly: "My lord, I don't know if you still remember Remember, in September last year, Marquis Dingyuan came back from the south with his wife and daughter to report to Beijing?"

"Master Xiang is talking about Chen Ande, Lord Chen, who holds more than [-] frontier troops in his hands?" Mo Shuyuan frowned upon hearing this, and the center of his brows instantly became pimples, "Of course I remember that."

"However, I still remember that when he first returned to the capital, Mr. Xiang, you took the opportunity to pay a visit to Marquis Chen once—didn't he say that he had no roots in the capital, and he didn't want to stand in line?"

"Why, now he has changed his mind?"

"That's right, he has indeed changed his mind now." Liao Zhen said with a heavy head, "The old minister has already inquired in detail, and it turns out that the Marquis of Dingyuan has been using the Mu family for his majesty all the year round before returning to Beijing. Dissatisfied for a long time."

"When he was guarding the border in southern Xinjiang, he went to the meeting many times, admonishing His Majesty not to trust the Duke's government too much, but the memorials are without exception, and they are like stones sinking into the sea, without any waves."

"That's right, he has given up the idea of ​​continuing to persuade him a long time ago. When he returned to Beijing this time, he also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to vote for another enlightened master, so as to gain the merit of being a dragon." At this point, Liao Zhen The tone paused slightly.

"When we approached him earlier, he had just returned to Beijing not long ago. He didn't know the situation in the court and China. He was afraid that he might accidentally side with the Mu family. He didn't dare to choose a king rashly. That's why he declined our invitation."

"But now, he has lived in Beijing for nearly half a year, and he has already seen the current situation clearly - the first prince has no intention of reaching the top, the second prince is weak and sick, the sixth prince is useless, and although the seventh prince has some skills, he is not far behind. Wear a pair of pants with the Mu family."

"Under such circumstances, he couldn't help hesitating - no, Little Gongye Mu just left the capital with fifty thousand elite soldiers yesterday, so he came to find the old minister today."

After Liao Zhen finished speaking, he raised his hand to pour himself a cup of tea, but Mo Shuyuan bowed his head and fell silent after hearing this.

"Chen Ande...what's his condition?" After a long time, the young man rubbed his chin and slightly raised his eyelids. Hearing this, Liao Zhen paused his fingers, lowered his eyebrows and sneered: "The lord has always been so straightforward."

"Chen's request is very simple." Liao Zhen turned his eyes, calm and composed, "Dingyuan Hou Chen Ande has a fifteen-year-old daughter who is waiting for her husband."

"He wants to marry his daughter into the palace—to be a concubine."

"Concubine Zheng?" Mo Shuyuan frowned, "I'm afraid this won't work."

"This king's marriage was personally decreed by my father, and the marriage has been less than two years old, and the concubine is currently pregnant... If this king divorces his wife and remarries now, I'm afraid I will be criticized by the people of the world. "

"Military power, this king really wants it, but for this military power, I completely abandoned the reputation I have worked so hard to create, this king feels that it is not worth it—"
