Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 525 I'm a mallet
Based on these doubts, Yan Mudang did not pronounce He'er guilty.

That night, the Ministry of Punishment sent a letter saying that He'er committed suicide by hitting the wall in the cell.

Liu Yunxiang sat up, thought for a while, and said, "If she was instigated by someone, what is the purpose of the person behind the scenes to poison Mrs. Marquis of Wuchang?"

Yan Mu shook his head, "I don't know yet, but I believe there will be an answer soon."

The next day in the court hall, because the murder of Mrs. Wuchanghou was solved, the emperor praised Yan Mu in front of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, and gave him a lot of rewards.As Mrs. Marquis of Wuchang passed away, according to regulations, Xue Changfeng had to take care of his mother Ding You for three years, and the post of Weizhou Chief Envoy was vacant.

The ministers in the court discussed for a while, and finally decided to promote Yang He, the chief envoy Zuo Shenzheng, to replace Xue Changfeng.

This Yang He has been in Weizhou for more than ten years, and his achievements are very good. Xue Changfeng also recommended him, and all the officials have no objection.

At this moment, Yan Mu seemed to be woken up suddenly. After the court, he caught up with Xue Changfeng and insisted on buying him a drink.Xue Changfeng ran away when he saw him, but he still didn't run away.

"Brother Xue, we are old friends, so why not lose face like this." Yan Mu hugged Xue Changfeng and smiled with narrowed eyes.

Xue Changfeng saw that Yan Mu looked like that fox, and felt that he was going to be tricked.

"Don't think too much, Your Highness. It's just that my mother just passed away, and I really don't have the mood to drink and have fun. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

He deliberately raised his voice, and the passing ministers all looked at them.In this way, Yan Mu can't make things difficult for him.

Yan Mu raised his eyebrows, "Brother Xue really hates this king."

"Not really."

"This king can also understand, which man can stand his bride calling other men's names on the wedding night, and he is not allowed to touch... oh!"

Xue Changfeng covered Yan Mu's mouth, his face was blue and red, and he was gnashing his teeth with hatred.

He and Murong Lingyi were arguing, and everyone was guessing that this was the reason why they heard him, wouldn't he be a joke!

"You deliberately!"

Yan Mu lowered his head and saw Xue Changfeng padded his feet, blushing with anger, this time he really couldn't help laughing.

"Brother Xue, it's indecent to touch your hands."

Xue Changfeng glared at Yan Mu, and could only let go first.

"Okay, drink, right? Whoever drinks first is a bastard!"

"Yo, can't you?"

"Your Highness is afraid?"

Yan Mu tilted his head: "How is that possible."

The wine was drunk in Wuchang Marquis Mansion, Yan Mu originally wanted to take Xue Changfeng outside, but when he was in Ding You, it really wasn't very nice to drink outside.

The Marquis of Wuchang has only one son, Xue Changfeng, no daughter, no concubine, and Murong Lingyi has left the mansion, leaving only Aunt Zhou in the backyard.Ever since she lost her child, she has been unable to support her body, and her spirit is not very good, but the backyard cannot be left unattended, so Jiang Yunying often walks around in the Hou's mansion.

"Cousin, it's better to drink less alcohol, it's easy to hurt your health." Jiang Yunying brought a plate of snacks, instructed Xue Changfeng, then turned to look at Yan Mu, "Your Highness too."

Yan Mu glanced at Jiang Yunying, but seeing her watery eyes, she seemed ashamed when she looked at him.

"Thank you, Miss Jiang, for your concern."

Jiang Yunying smiled slightly, nodded and stepped back.

In fact, Xue Changfeng was very depressed, so he didn't need Yan Mu's persuasion, he picked up the wine jar first, poured a big bowl for Yan Mu, and then poured another bowl for himself.

"Your Highness is huge, let's use a big bowl today."

Yan Mu picked it up with a smile, respected Xue Changfeng, then bowed his head and took two sips, not wanting that Xue Changfeng did it in one go.

"Your Highness, is this your sincerity?"

Yan Mu nodded, picked it up again and drank it down in one gulp.

"Is this sincerity enough?"

"not enough!"

Xue Changfeng filled two big bowls again and wanted to drink, but was stopped by Yan Mu.

"Ask you something."

Xue Changfeng narrowed his eyes, "You won't ask me until I'm drunk?"

Yan Mu laughed, "No need, it's not a personal matter."

Xue Changfeng snorted for a long time, put down the bowl, and thought it wrong again, "Then what personal matter did you ask me last time?"

"It's nothing."

Xue Changfeng narrowed his eyes, "Your Highness, tell the truth!"

Yan Mu laughed dryly, "It's really nothing, I just want to ask if you and Princess Zhaohua are in a good relationship."

"Ask someone about their relationship, Your Highness is really polite!"

Yan Mu smiled, "I'm just asking, I didn't expect you to say so much."

"What did I say?" Xue Changfeng asked hurriedly, he didn't remember anything after he was drunk.

"For example, the relationship between your husband and wife is not good. For example, you had a big fight with Mrs. Hou Yehou in order to marry Murong Lingyi. For example, why do you want to marry her?"

"I, what did I say?"

"You said that when you were young, you fell in love with a wanton and bright girl, but that girl never saw you." Yan Mu glanced at Xue Changfeng, his face was already dark, "This girl is Murong Lingyi. "

At that time, Murong Lingyi's reputation was already bad, Mrs. Hou Yehou didn't agree with Xue Changfeng to marry her, but Xue Changfeng wanted to marry her even after breaking up with his parents, but Murong Lingyi stepped on his sincerity on the wedding night.

After that, he was still willing to understand her, give her time, and tolerate her, but in exchange for Murong Lingyi's disgust, and those murderous words.

Later, he stopped loving, and in order to cut off his love, he took the Zhou family as his concubine. Afterwards, the husband and wife even described the conflict.

Xue Changfeng picked up the big bowl in front of him, poured it down with his head up, and then slammed it on the table, "My sincerity is like a piece of shit in her eyes, but you..."

"Fairy and beautiful, unparalleled in the world."

"Are you not guilty of boasting yourself so much?"

Yan Mu tilted his head and smiled, "This is what you praised me for."

Xue Changfeng's eyes widened, "Me?"

"Brother Xue, don't you love me?"

"vomit!"

Yan Mu picked up the bowl, respected Xue Changfeng again, and drank it dry in one gulp. He wiped his mouth with his sleeve, looked solemn, and said, "Actually, it's nothing. This king just wants to know about Yang He."

"Yang He?" Xue Changfeng was puzzled, "Do you know what he does?"

"This king has his own intentions."

Xue Changfeng nodded, and didn't bother to delve into it, "He, we have been in business for three years, he is conscientious, prudent, upright, a good official and a good person, that's why I recommended him in the court."

Yan Mu poured Xue Changfeng a bowl of wine, "Let's chat slowly."

Zhenbei Palace, after dinner, Liu Yunxiang took the two children to play for a while, and then let Jinyan lead them to bed.I asked Zijin what time it was, and it was almost Haishi, but Yan Mu hadn't come back yet.

"Isn't Your Highness in the Marquis of Wuchang, what is there to worry about, Miss?" Zijin said.

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath, "But I always feel uneasy."

"Then servants, go and urge them."

Liu Yunxiang thought for a while, "Well, I'll go with you."

When they came to Hou Mansion, the servants led them to Xue Changfeng's courtyard, but Xue Changfeng was the only one beside the stone table in the courtyard. He was already drunk, lying on the stone table, and the surroundings were in a mess.

"Where is our Highness?" Zijin asked the boy.

The servant hurriedly called the servant girl who came to serve in this courtyard, and asked where His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince was.

The maid said: "His Royal Highness Seventh is drunk, Miss Jiang helped him to rest in the flower hall next door."

Liu Yunxiang had a bad premonition, and hurriedly strode out of the courtyard.
