After being forced to marry as a substitute, I became famous in the limbo

On this day, Mu Jingzhao received a secret report from outside the palace, and just after reading it, he summoned Lin Zheng.

"What is the emperor's order?" Lin Zheng's tone was calm. No matter how many changes have taken place around him, he seems to always be like this, and will not be affected by the external environment in the slightest.

But Mu Jingzhao was completely opposite to him. During this time, not only did Mu Jingzhao not show the slightest joy of being a new husband, but he lost weight rapidly at an astonishing speed.

With a pale complexion and a sloppy beard, he has long lost the appearance of the high-spirited young emperor.

Mu Jingzhao looked at Lin Zheng quietly, the monarch and his ministers just stood opposite each other, and at some point, the partnership between the pair who grew up together was no longer what it used to be.

This change seemed to have completely changed after Jiang Ning sent a dagger into his chest that day.

Or even longer ago, when he sent Lin Zheng to save the last life of the Jiang family.

But no matter how it changes, Lin Zheng is still one of the very few people around him who he can trust wholeheartedly.

"Look at this." Mu Jingzhao casually threw out a piece of letter paper in his hand, Lin Zheng took it casually, spread it out and looked at it.

In just a split second, Lin Zheng's brows furrowed.

The letter probably said that Shen Tong had recently strengthened his actions to eliminate dissidents, and sent people to the vicinity of Qingshui County to drive Pei Yu and his party to death.

The text is very short, without any explanation.

Anyone who reads it will subconsciously feel that this is a sloppy trap set by Shen Tong.

Volunteers take the bait.

What Shen Tong bet on was nothing more than Mu Jingzhao's regard for Jiang Ning.

"What does the emperor mean?"

"You go there and make sure to save Pei Yu and his party."

"Yes." Lin Zheng carefully folded the letter paper in his hand, turned and went out.

He never talked too much about Mu Jingzhao's orders.

Just as Lin Zheng took two steps, he stopped at the door. He turned his head to look at Mu Jingzhao in the room, his gaze slowly gliding across his pale and haggard face.

His nasal breathing was heavy, like a sigh.

After hesitating for a moment, he turned his head to meet Mu Jingzhao's eyes.

"I know what you want to say." Mu Jingzhao opened the mouth first, "This is what I promised her, and now that's all I can do. I only hope that I can ask for her forgiveness at that time."

Lin Zheng nodded slightly, but didn't say much.

In fact, these two people probably know well that the conflict between him and Jiang Ning cannot be repaired by these things.

Unless, the broken willow comes back from the dead.

In the blink of an eye, it was summer, and Jiang Ning and Liu Jinfu still stayed in the palace every day, living a peaceful life without hearing anything outside the window.

As for Mu Jingzhao's side, Lin Zheng went to Qingshui County, and since then there has been no news, no news at all.

Time moved forward slowly amid anxious waiting. Shen Tong's summer resort on the outskirts of the city was completed. On the day it was completed, he held a large banquet and invited all middle and high-level officials in the DPRK and China to watch and taste.

On the day of the dinner, fireworks and firecrackers rang out in the forest throughout the night, Shen Tong got drunk, and even uttered nonsense. As a national champion, he was a legitimate relative of the emperor, so naturally he should be the head of all officials.

Such an arrogant and domineering arrogance directly made Jiang Qingyuan and Liu Yue leave the table in anger.

On the second day, dozens of officials even signed a letter of impeachment.

But all these impeachments were dismissed by Mu Jingzhao because Mr. Shen was overjoyed that the queen was about to give birth, so he downplayed it.

At this time, the resentment against Shen Tong had reached its peak inside and outside the court.

When it was July, the first heavy rain in summer was ushered in.

A heavy snowfall at the end of the new year almost made everyone think that this year would definitely be a year of good weather.

But the sky didn't work out, and the summer in Kyoto has just entered the summer, and it has ushered in days of drought and high temperature.

The scorching sun dried up the river and burned the crops.The land was parched, the river ran aground, and Kyoto ushered in the worst drought in ten years.

Emperor Mu Jingzhao repeatedly allocated money and food from the treasury, but to no avail.

The people couldn't eat enough to eat, but Shen Tong's summer resort was filled with singing and dancing every day, which was extravagant and extravagant.

Buckets of leftovers were transported from the summer resort and dumped on the river bank at random. The desperate people came to grab the food one after another. It is called, the gift of the noble.

This rain came without any warning. Before that, the dark clouds above the imperial city had accumulated for several days. Everyone was looking forward to it day and night, waiting for the raindrops to fall.

But no matter how hard the world begged and prayed, God was indifferent.

But when everyone was discouraged, the rain just fell without warning.

This rain fell with a thunderstorm in the afternoon, when the thunderstorm struck, Mu Jingzhao was staring at his servants who were feeding Shen Qingrong with anti-fetal medicine.

These days, her belly has gradually grown, her body is inconvenient, and she needs help from others in her daily life.

So Mu Jingzhao followed closely every day, for fear that something might go wrong.

When the thunder struck, Ling Yue was just taking the anti-fetal medicine with a spoon and sending it to Shen Qingrong's mouth, and when the porcelain spoon was about to touch her lips, a thunder fell just like that.

Ling Yue's hands trembled, and the soup from the porcelain spoon was spilled out. Shen Qingrong turned her face away, and her face suddenly became very ugly.

In less than a stick of incense, she cupped her stomach in both hands and wailed again and again.Ling Yue knew that Shen Qingrong was about to give birth, so she hurriedly trotted out to find Mrs. Wen to deliver the baby.

Shen Qingrong was pushed into the delivery room.

At the same time, Shen Tong led a group of soldiers to forcibly break into the palace and surrounded Changle Palace tightly.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Empress's water has broken, and Mrs. Wen is delivering her baby."

When Mengyin said this carefully, Liu Jinfu had just lit the oil lamp in the main hall, and planned to have some afternoon tea and chat with Jiang Ning about the rain scene.

"En." Liu Jinfu casually handed a small plate of plum blossom crisps in front of Jiang Ning, not paying much attention to Meng Yin's words.

Just as she had laid out the snacks on the table and was about to sit down, there was a burst of noise from outside the hall.

"Come on! Surround me, and not a single fly will be released."

"Yes!"

Then there was a burst of regular and forceful footsteps.

Liu Jinfu frowned. She stood up and pushed the door open, only to see that the entire Shuanghua Palace had been surrounded by soldiers. At the entrance of the main hall, a burly, dark-skinned man who looked like a general was smiling. looking at her.

"The empress is giving birth, my lord is afraid that someone will bump into her accidentally and affect the safety of the little prince, please forgive me."

Liu Jinfu glanced at the courtyard, and saw that all the gates of Shuanghua Palace were guarded by Shen Tong's people, about 20 people inside and outside.

She suddenly laughed, "It's up to you? You want to stop me? Who are you looking down on?"

The soldier's face changed suddenly, "Madam, please speak carefully, Mr. Shen is only thinking about the safety of the prince, and has no intention of obstructing it."

Liu Jinfu looked at him sideways, and the sarcasm on his face intensified, "No one cares whether the prince is dead or alive, this is the palace of my palace, only you can enter if I let you in, and I won't let you in." You have to get out, I can’t walk and I will send you out, understand?”
