Stunning weapon

() Mo Xiaochuan's voice came into the house, but there was no movement inside. The snow on the eaves seemed to vibrate because of the penetration of the sound, and a few pieces fell sparsely.Mo Xiaochuan turned his head and glanced at Eunuch Chen. It was obvious that Eunuch Chen didn't know why, and there was a puzzled expression on his face.

Mo Xiaochuan coughed lightly, and shouted again: "Your Majesty, Mo Xiaochuan is coming back!"

There was the sound of fingers tapping on the table in the room, and Mo Zhiyuan's voice was heard after a while: "Come in."

Eunuch Chen pushed open the door and let Mo Xiaochuan go in first. Just as he was about to follow in, Mo Zhiyuan said again: "Xiao Chenzi, step back first."

Eunuch Chen was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly saluted and retreated, closing the door tightly.

When Mo Xiaochuan walked in, he saw that Mo Zhiyuan was not reviewing the memorial today, but was standing with his back against the table, with his hands on the table, and his fingers were still tapping lightly on the table.

Mo Xiaochuan took a few steps forward, saluted and greeted him. . .

Mo Zhiyuan hesitated for a while, stepped forward to help him up, sighed softly, and said: "I already knew what you did in Yan Kingdom, but I don't know how to help you. You resent me in your heart ?"

Mo Xiaochuan hurriedly replied: "I dare not."

Mo Zhiyuan shook his head, and said: "There is nothing you dare or dare to do. In fact, even if you blame me, you should. My father, I sent you there. You were in danger, but I failed to rescue you in time; Yu Si, I am your uncle, and my nephew was in trouble, and I as an elder made you suffer a lot in order to take good care of him."

"It's nothing to suffer. I'm still young, so I should practice more." Mo Xiaochuan replied.

"It's good that you think like this." Mo Zhiyuan reached out and patted Mo Xiaochuan's shoulder, and said, "I thought so too, but after hearing that you were kidnapped by Liu Jingting, it made me worry. No end, luckily you came back safely."

Mo Xiaochuan's heart tightened suddenly. It seemed that Mo Zhiyuan was very concerned about this matter. Although he didn't directly ask Liu Jingting why he was arrested, he had to say it himself.If he escapes now, then it will only make Mo Zhiyuan more suspicious of himself, and he will be timid when doing things in the future, and it will be difficult to do anything.

After thinking for a while, Mo Xiaochuan took a deep breath and said, "Uncle, after Liu Jingting captured my nephew, my nephew actually had no intention of surviving. It really shouldn't be worrying my uncle, but the Liu brothers It's a malicious intention, uncle has to guard against it."

"Oh? How do you say that?" Mo Zhiyuan raised his brows, as if he was a little surprised.

Mo Xiaochuan knelt down and said, "Uncle, Liu Chengqi has a heart of disobedience. He arrested his nephew just to make him his puppet, so that he can control Xiliang..." Mo Xiaochuan then sent Liu Chengqi What he said to him was deleted, edited, and described again, and he described how he escaped with embellishments. As he spoke, he opened his cloak to reveal the tattered clothes inside, which were stained with blood. , It is shocking to see in the eyes of people.

Mo Zhiyuan hurriedly checked his injuries, and after looking at him, he shook his head and sighed, and said, "I'm sorry. Liu Chengqi is becoming more and more daring, and dared to attack my Mo family. This time, I will never forgive you lightly." to him."

After hearing this, Mo Xiaochuan shook his head, and said, "Uncle, in my nephew's opinion, you can't take action against Liu Chengqi at this time. Liu Chengqi's grounds are quite deep. If you don't do it well, you will affect your whole body and make the whole body suffer." Xiliang was in trouble, and what happened that day, the people who saw it with their own eyes were either from Yan State or Southern Tang. Even if people from Qixintang could testify, the hostile relationship between Qixintang and Falcontang is known all over the world. You know, Liu Jingting can be excused by Qi Xintang's deliberate slander. Besides, even if it is confirmed that he shot me, it is difficult to make a conclusion. In the end, Liu Chengqi will probably use this matter to make a big fuss, saying that uncle deliberately made things difficult for him , killing Zhongliang in vain. Therefore, my nephew thinks that it is better not to disturb him for the time being..."

After hearing this, Mo Zhiyuan raised his eyes to look at Mo Xiaochuan, nodded slightly, and said, "What you said is somewhat reasonable, but you can't indulge Liu Chengqi like this, otherwise, wouldn't he be even more lawless in the future."

"My nephew is just expressing some of my own thoughts. After all, my nephew is young and doesn't think about things comprehensively enough. My uncle has to decide everything." Mo Xiaochuan said respectfully.

Mo Zhiyuan nodded slightly, and said: "Yes. It seems that this trip to the Yan Kingdom is not completely useless, but you have made a lot of progress. However, destroying most of the imperial city of the Yan Kingdom is not enough. Sure. The imperial city of Yan State, after hundreds of years, was the ancient capital of the first dynasty. You destroyed it like this, and the people of Yan State must have a different opinion. There are disadvantages. What will the people of Yan State think of us in Xiliang? If they let the army and the people work together, it will pose a great threat to us in Xiliang."

Mo Xiaochuan nodded, and said: "It's my nephew who is being reckless, but I didn't do it on purpose. My nephew didn't know that I strayed into the important place of Yemen that day. By the time I found out, it was already too late, Ye Zhanyun He brought a large number of masters from Yemen to block the way, and after a hard struggle, he realized that the underground of the Yan Kingdom Palace was a natural underground lake, and the collapse was caused by Ye Zhanyun's sword energy. Such a big deal."

Mo Zhiyuan wondered: "Since you met Ye Zhanyun, but you were able to escape from his hands, it is a miracle."

Mo Xiaochuan then told about the fact that he accidentally obtained the red elixir, and took out the elixir from his bosom, and showed it to Mo Zhiyuan.Mo Zhiyuan held it in his hand, looked at it, and sighed softly: "Although this elixir can improve your skill for a short time, it will do great damage to your body. If it is not necessary, you must not take it again."

"Thank you uncle for your concern. My nephew will keep it in my heart, and I will never forget it." Mo Xiaochuan said with an extremely grateful face.

Mo Zhiyuan hummed, and said again: "Your nainai has missed you a long time ago, you go to pay the queen mother well first, and then go back to the palace."

"Yes!" Mo Xiaochuan agreed, and said, "Then my nephew will retire first."

Mo Zhiyuan nodded, seeing that Mo Xiaochuan was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something, stopped him, and said, "Why, are you going to see your nainai like this?"

Mo Xiaochuan looked down and saw that his clothes were ragged and out of shape. He couldn't help but smiled awkwardly and said, "I was busy returning to my life earlier, but I didn't have time to change my clothes."

"Her old man is just such a precious grandson as you. Seeing you like this, she must cry with distress. The queen mother is old, so don't let her get too excited. Change your clothes first before going. " Mo Zhiyuan said lightly, looking at Mo Xiaochuan's expression quietly.

When Mo Xiaochuan heard Mo Zhiyuan say that "he is just a precious grandson like you now", he was startled suddenly. He didn't know what Mo Zhiyuan meant by saying this to him. However, he definitely would not think that such a shrewd person as Mo Zhiyuan would make such a slip of the tongue, and he couldn't figure it out in his heart, so he simply pretended not to understand, as if he didn't understand it, and smiled embarrassingly, Said: "Uncle is still thoughtful."

Mo Zhiyuan didn't see anything from his face, so he smiled and said: "Your figure is very similar to your father's appearance when he was young. Over the years, every time it comes to his death, I will order someone to give him Make a boa robe and keep it. I made another one a few days ago, and you can try it to see if it fits." After that, he called Eunuch Chen in and asked him to take Mo Xiaochuan to change clothes.

After Mo Xiaochuan thanked him, he went with Eunuch Chen.

When he came to the room next to the imperial study, Eunuch Chen said with a smile: "Your Majesty values ​​the prince very much. This is where His Majesty changes clothes. No one has ever changed clothes here before."

"Your Majesty loves you so much, Mo Xiaochuan is ashamed." Mo Xiaochuan said softly, turned Eunuch Chen's shoulder to the side, and cupped his hands in the direction of the imperial study room. After finishing speaking, he walked in.

Eunuch Chen made himself a fool of himself, but he was not very angry. The conflict between him and Mo Xiaochuan had not been a day or two. He thought it was normal for Mo Xiaochuan to treat him like this. At least, Mo Xiaochuan hadn't Change, if Mo Xiaochuan greeted him with a smile that day, like those ordinary ministers who were afraid of offending him, he would have to be on guard instead.

After Mo Xiaochuan went in, Eunuch Chen asked several eunuchs to wait for him to take a bath.The palace maids cannot be used casually. The women in the imperial palace belong to the emperor. Without the emperor's order, even Eunuch Chen, the chief internal officer, would not dare to let these palace maids serve a man to take a bath at will.

Seeing that Mo Xiaochuan had already taken off the tattered clothes and put them in the outside room, Eunuch Chen hurried over and quietly picked up the clothes and came to the imperial study room, and put the clothes on the table beside him for Mo Zhiyuan to check.

Looking at the tattered clothes, Mo Xiaochuan couldn't help but think of Mo Xiaochuan's injuries.Below the waist, there are many scratches, and some places have deep bones. Fortunately, these wounds are not very big, and they have already been treated.However, he still couldn't fully trust Mo Xiaochuan. Ever since his brothers betrayed him, Mo Zhiyuan didn't trust anyone in the world who could threaten his imperial power. It's not the kind of unreserved trust, there is always a kind of spontaneous guard in his heart.

What's more, when Mo Xiaochuan and Liu Chengqi met this time, it was impossible for Mo Xiaochuan to tell himself exactly what the two of them were talking about, and no one could prove whether what he said was true or false.

Mo Zhiyuan gently waved his hand to signal Eunuch Chen to leave, and then picked up Mo Xiaochuan's clothes, and saw that besides some scattered silver taels, there were also some parchment inside, and he picked it up to have a look, it was the red Description of the pill.

However, Mo Zhiyuan didn't understand some of the words on it. After listening to Mo Xiaochuan's explanation and comparing them, he could probably figure it out. He didn't want to read more, so he threw it there. Cards and jade pendants worn together.

Seeing the jade pendant, Mo Zhiyuan clenched it tightly, and was about to crush it, but then thought of something, let go slightly, and put it down.He carefully picked up the wooden sign again, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, the patterns carved on it were so clear, he couldn't help but look soft when he saw it, in this world, no one but him would have thought, Did he carve the pattern on it himself?

Looking at the wooden sign, Mo Zhiyuan couldn't help but took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, the portrait in his bedroom appeared in his mind, the person on the portrait seemed to be alive at this moment , smiling at him.

"Xiaoyu..." Mo Zhiyuan looked at the wooden sign with a look of pain on his face.

Back then, he already had a princess, but after the two brothers met that sober and refined girl, they both developed a heart of admiration for him.The two brothers and Xiaoyu often walk in the streets and forests, traveling around, and sometimes, they also go to help the poor.

Xiaoyu is a girl who is proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he is also quite proficient in these. In comparison, Xiaoyu and him have more common language than his brother who is obsessed with the art of war.

Therefore, the two of them walked closer, at first it was nothing, but later, gradually, there was a gap between the two brothers because of Xiaoyu.Once, when Mo Zhiming led troops to fight, Mo Zhiyuan took Xiaoyu to play.

Mo Zhiming's departure made both of them less scruples. Finally, one evening, the two sat quietly in the woods. Xiaoyu's face was flushed, but she didn't speak, but she looked shy, which made her There was a thud in my heart.

At that time, he was just in his early thirties, and he was still impulsive towards this kind of love between men and women. Seeing Xiaoyu's appearance like this, he couldn't help but kissed her on the cheek. After the kiss, he felt a little bit I regretted it, and raised it abruptly. You must know that although their brothers have no shortage of women, they respect Xiaoyu very much. Therefore, after doing this, he feels that he has committed a heinous crime to Xiaoyu. Mortal sin in general.

Thinking of this, Mo Zhiyuan couldn't help shaking his head and smiling wryly. I'm afraid no one in the world would believe that Mo Zhiyuan still had such a youthful time.

However, Xiaoyu at the time didn't mind him doing this, and just leaned her head gently on his shoulder.

Although it was just such a simple action, it made Mo Zhiyuan very excited. Later, taking advantage of the night, under the trees and beside the stream, he asked for Xiaoyu.It wasn't until the two of them accomplished something good that Mo Zhiyuan felt that he was sorry for his brother, how much he liked Xiaoyu, and how painful it would be for him to know.

For Mo Zhiyuan, the brotherhood at that time was still very cherished.

Xiaoyu seemed to see his scruples, and whispered to him, he doesn't need to think so much, she understands his thoughts, she is voluntary, and she will handle these things well.Although Mo Zhiyuan was not yet ready for a woman to take responsibility for him, he was very moved at the moment.He didn't bring anything with him, so he took out the dagger, planed such a wooden sign from the tree beside him, carefully carved patterns with the dagger, and gave it to her. At the same time, the two of them imagined that they would give this thing to their first child.

At that time, Xiaoyu still laughed at him, that the dignified prince would actually give such a shabby thing to his child, he replied to her, just because he was the prince, the future children would definitely not be attracted by any rare and beautiful jade, this is the difference between east and west. precious.

In the following period of time, Mo Zhiyuan seemed to be crazy, he would keep looking for Xiaoyu, and he no longer liked the wives and concubines in his mansion. Therefore, except for the one son and one daughter left behind, his women had no chance to replace him. He gave birth to a boy and a half girl.

However, the longer he spent with Xiaoyu, the more he felt that he was useless.

He is always unable to do what he wants in a certain way. It is reasonable to say that he is only in his 30s, and this aspect is just when he needs it. How could it be like this? Even though he loves Xiaoyu very much, he is a little too indulgent, only a short month, even if The body has been damaged, how can it take effect so quickly.

He faintly felt that something was wrong, he suddenly thought of Liu Chengqi, Xiaoyu is Liu Chengqi's adopted daughter, could it be that Liu Chengqi wanted Xiaoyu to do this on purpose because he wanted their royal family to have no descendants?

He was in great pain, and wanted to ask Xiaoyu, but he couldn't ask, until one day, he felt that there was something wrong with Xiaoyu, as if something was hiding from him, under his persecution, Xiaoyu said that Mo Zhiming raped her.

Mo Zhiyuan was furious and wanted to settle accounts with Mo Zhiming, but Xiaoyu stopped him.The two had a big fight over this, and, as a man, he was already a little unhealthy, and his physical condition was deteriorating, which made his temper even more irritable, and he cursed Xiaoyu as a bitch.

Not long after the two broke up unhappy, Xiaoyu married his younger brother, and she became a princess, but his younger brother slowly became hostile to him, so he didn't blame his younger brother in his heart.

Therefore, the two Mo brothers gradually turned against each other. Mo Zhiming, who had always focused only on military affairs, gradually began to care about politics, and he also had opinions on his position as the crown prince. Emotional conflicts have escalated into political conflicts.

The two began to fight openly and secretly.

However, Mo Zhiming is a military genius in politics, but he is not the opponent of Mo Zhiyuan who has worked hard for many years.

In the end, Mo Zhiyuan succeeded in ascending to the throne, but he lost even more, Xiaoyu and his younger brother. More importantly, he gradually discovered that he even lost the basic functions that a man should have.

However, after all, Mo Zhiyuan's temperament is extremely tenacious. Over the years, he stopped thinking about those things and devoted all his energies to his Wangtu hegemony. Get up to read books, and talk with ministers with bachelors.

He put all his energies on state affairs, made Xiliang prosperous, and became the bright master of this era.

But there is always something weak in his heart, and only he knows this.Sometimes, he hated Xiaoyu in his heart. Without him, maybe his own fate would not be like this. If there was no her, his younger brother would not turn against him. I am afraid that Xiliang would be more prosperous now.

However, he still couldn't forget Xiaoyu, so that there was still a portrait of her in his bedroom, and he would take it out to have a look at it when he was free.

While Mo Zhiyuan was in deep thought, he was awakened by a knock on the door outside, and Eunuch Chen's voice came in: "Your Majesty, Prince Chen is about to change his clothes."

Mo Zhiyuan thought of something, and said softly: "Understood, you come in."

Eunuch Chen opened the door and entered the house, looked at the things on the table, and then at Mo Zhiyuan.

Mo Zhiyuan didn't speak, put his hands behind his back, and walked out the door.

Eunuch Chen hurriedly picked up the clothes, ran to the room where Mo Xiaochuan was in a hurry, and put them properly in the place where Mo Xiaochuan put the clothes before.
