The tyrant opposite the door

Chapter 273: Chapter 277

After the letter was sent, Yun Ran actually regretted it. Being so reckless is indeed not in line with her temperament.

But I don't know why, it's like holding back a fire in my heart.

Identity, status, appearance, power.

Except for this face, nothing seems to match the rest.

Before that, she never thought that she would become husband and wife with him.

After Yun Ran was annoyed at her rashness and couldn't hold her breath, after Sikong Mu Sheng was a little puzzled over there, a different feeling came to her heart.

It's the first time I heard that sending letters thousands of miles is just to get jealous.

After putting away Yunran's letter, Sikong Mu Sheng thought about calling Song Fang in, and asked him about what happened in Kyoto recently.

Song Fang explained everything he knew. Seeing the prince's uneasy expression, he was relieved thinking that there was indeed nothing he had missed.

Sikong Musheng remembered what Yunran said in the letter, looked at Song Fang and said, "Go and check Xue Dingzhen's latest whereabouts immediately."

Song Fang was taken aback for a moment, Xue Dingzhen was fighting with the lord, is there any need to check his whereabouts?
However, he did not dare to neglect the prince's order, and immediately said: "Yes, my subordinates will investigate immediately."

Before dark, Song Fang hurried back. In the big tent of the army, King Luo was calling the generals to discuss matters.Knowing that Song Fang came back, he immediately declared him in.

Song Fang looked a little anxious, walked quickly into the tent and bowed to salute, and then said: "My lord, my subordinates have checked, and Xue Dingzhen is indeed not in the army."

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar in the big tent, and everyone's eyes fell on Song Fang.

After Dong Chuanzhang was astonished, he immediately asked: "Is this really true?"

Song Fang nodded, "That's right. The commander's camp of the Beiming army is strictly guarded, and the patrols in the army are more frequent and cautious than usual. The subordinate secretly grabbed his tongue and tortured him to extract a confession. No one is allowed to approach Xue Dingyu's military tent. The deputy general next to Xue Dingyu who showed up was delivering the general's order, holding the general's order to strictly control the news."

There was a lot of discussion in the big tent, and no one thought that under their noses, Xue Dingyu played a golden cicada to escape the shell, and they didn't notice it at all.

Everyone looked very bad, and Qi Qi looked at King Luo.

Sikong Mu Sheng's expression was inexplicable, he sat on the head and stared at the crowd, his eyes were so sharp that no one dared to look directly at them.

Dong Chuanzhang didn't dare to say anything at the moment, he just asked: "My lord, what should we do next?"

Sikong Musheng said indifferently: "Since Xue Dingyu gave us such a good opportunity, how can we let him down so much?"

Everyone froze for a moment and looked at each other, with excitement bursting out of their eyes instantly.

That's right, Xue Dingzhen went out secretly, now that the commander in chief is not around, it's a good time to attack.

Seeing that everyone's emotions were mobilized, Sikong Mu Sheng began to line up his troops to prepare for the surprise attack on the Beiming tent.

All of a sudden, there was turmoil on the Dajin side, and the soldiers were feeding the horses. The atmosphere on the eve of the war suddenly became tense.

Yun Ran never imagined that his letter to Sikong Mu Sheng would allow him to deduce Xue Dingzhen's whereabouts from the actions of Sujun Palace.

And Xue Ding was even more surprised that Yun Ran, a woman who had just married Sikong Musheng, would exchange letters with Sikong Musheng.

All the accidents come together to create a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Half a month later, a great victory came from the border.

King Luo led one hundred thousand elite soldiers to surprise the Beiming barracks in the middle of the night, and fought bloody night, wiping out more than ten thousand enemies.Then, he continued to chase the enemy for more than a month, insisted on not letting go, and fought more than ten times before and after, extending the defense line between Beiming and Dajin for hundreds of miles, taking back the city that Sikong Muqi had lost before, and even driving Beiming back their own territory.

When the news came out, the whole capital was boiling. This was the best record that the two countries had achieved in the war in recent years.

Emperor Dayue ordered Luo Wang to escort the captives to Beijing, hand over the border affairs to his subordinates, and returned in triumph.

From leaving to coming back, it took less than half a year. This was the fastest return to Beijing since Sikong Mu Sheng set off.

By the time Sikong Musheng assembled his army and escorted the prisoners back to Beijing, it was already early winter.

After that letter, Yunran never received a reply from Sikong Musheng again.

However, as news of border crossings entered Beijing one by one, news about Sikong Mu Sheng kept coming.

The name of the God of War is even more famous all over the world.

No matter how afraid the emperor is of Sikong Mu Sheng, with his illustrious military exploits, he can't do anything to be criticized.Not only can't you reprimand King Luo, but you also have to give him a big reward.

Not only is Luo Wang's mansion infinitely beautiful, but Yun Ran, the future queen concubine Luo, has become the envy of everyone in Kyoto.

Before that, King Luo was feared by the emperor, and made things difficult for him several times, and even promoted Sikong Muqi to contend with him.At that time, the status of King Luo was unstable, so Yunran suddenly became Concubine Luo by accident. Even if everyone thought she was lucky, they didn't think so.

After all, Luo Wang's power is declining, and it may be difficult to regain his glory.

However, with this great victory, driving away the enemy for hundreds of miles and extending the Great Jin line of defense to protect the family and the country, King Luo not only successfully turned himself over, maintained his reputation as God of War, but also raised his reputation to a higher level.

However, as the day of King Luo's return to the capital drew closer, more voices of impeachment appeared in the court.

The impeachment of King Luo was bloodthirsty, killing captives indiscriminately at the border, and robbing the people of food by force, and the rumors of causing trouble at the border became even more turbulent, and there were endless impeachments.

I have known for a long time that the emperor will never give up easily, but such an obvious behavior still makes Yunran a little panicky.

When Sikong and Mu Sheng entered the city, she didn't go to see his heroic appearance, but Gu Fan and Mu Yi couldn't help it, and left happily under the protection of Qin Yun.

I still seem to be thinking about the words of my aunt yesterday, and I remember her happy smile and relaxed words, "It's all right now, the prince has returned with a big victory, and your good days are coming soon."

Is she having a good day?

When Yunran thought of the events of the past few months, especially the incident at Huang'en Temple, it was inevitable that he felt anxious.

From such a long distance, it seems that the cheers can still be heard from across the air.

In fact, she also wanted to see how heroic and extraordinary the general who returned to the court after victory was, but her current status was really hard to show her face, so she inevitably felt a little regretful.

When Gu Fan and Mu Yi came back, Gu Fan gesticulated excitedly, couldn't even complete the sentence, but said over and over again: "Sister, you didn't see that brother-in-law is mighty, sitting in the dark Tall on a horse, wearing armor, with sharp eyes, this is what a hero of my Great Jin should look like."

Mu Yi's eyes turned straight, and he didn't seem to like Sister Yun's expression. He felt bad in his heart. Could it be that Sister Yun didn't like such a father?

"Sister Yun, I used to sit behind and follow everyone into the city, and this is the first time I greet him among the people."

Yun Ran looked at Mu Yi when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "Really? Then you are as excited as Brother Fan?"

"Of course, my father is a great hero, and it's the first time I've seen him so mighty." Mu Yi said, looking at Yun Ran with wide-eyed eyes.

Yun Ran couldn't help but laugh in her heart, why couldn't she see Mu Yi's cleverness, she said: "Yes, the prince is famous in battle, and everyone in Dajin knows it."

Only then did Mu Yi become happy, that's right, his father is such a powerful person, how could Sister Yun not like him.

"Sister Yun, then cook me something delicious. My dad must be hungry when he comes back from the palace. I'll send him there to fill his stomach."

"Of course there will be a banquet in the palace, how come you come back hungry." Yun Ran looked at Mu Yi with a smile.

"Hey, sister Yun, you don't know, every time my father comes back from a victorious battle, the meal he enters the palace is not good. I guess it will be the same this time, every time my father leaves the palace with a dark face."

Yunran thought of the impeachment of Sikong Mu Sheng, the emperor was afraid of him, and he really didn't have much appetite at the palace banquet.

Mu Yi grabbed her sleeve and begged, but Yun Ran couldn't refuse, so he agreed.

After agreeing, I regretted it again, which is too unreserved.

But the words have already been spoken, and it is not easy to renege on the debt, Yun Ran sighed, this little Mu Yi is also a clever ghost, so he knows how to dig a hole for her at a young age.

When she wanted to reprimand him, she would have grabbed Gu Fan and yelled at him to do her homework.

It's fast!
In early winter, the weather was already cold, Yunran was thinking about the recipe, if he wants to eat comfortably, he still needs to eat a pot, and people who are steaming are also comfortable.

So he ordered the kitchen to slaughter an old duck and make soup. When he came back from the palace, the old duck soup was just ready to be used as the soup base.

Speaking of which, she herself was a little greedy, so she simply asked the kitchen to stew two more, and they also ate Laoya soup pot at night.

Originally thought that the palace banquet would not be over until the end of the Xu Dynasty at least, but at the beginning of the Xu Dynasty, Gu Junhe and Sikong Mu Sheng came back together.

When Yun Ran got the news, she was watching Lao Ya Tang in the kitchen. Hearing that the two of them looked bad, she hurriedly came out of the kitchen feeling apprehensive.

I want to rush back to my room to change clothes, and then go to the front to have a look.

The big kitchen came out and entered her yard, just passing through the hanging flower door.

Yun Ran frowned slightly, and walked hurriedly, with something on her mind, she didn't notice that there was a person standing at the side of the vertical flower gate for a moment.

When he walked in, he realized that the tall figure standing with his hands behind his back was exactly Sikong Mu Sheng who hadn't seen him for a long time.

Yunran walked in a hurry, with an apron still tied around her waist, with a smear of oil stains on it, and the tightly tied belt just outlined her graceful and slender waist.The goose-yellow ermine-skinned thong embroidered that flower-like delicate face, adding a touch of charm.

Sikong Mu Sheng probably came out of the palace and went directly to Gu's mansion. His armor was bright, and there was a cold silver glow under the moonlight.The straight and slender body casts a long shadow in the night light.

Yun Ran's hurried steps, when she saw Sikong Mu Sheng, she couldn't help being startled, and subconsciously stopped.

Why is he here?

It's been so long since we saw each other, and when we met in a hurry, Yun Ran always felt uncomfortable and restrained, so he took a step back subconsciously.

Following Yun Ran's movements, Sikong Mu Sheng's gaze couldn't help but concentrate.

The two looked at each other, under the moonlight, their faces were slightly hazy, and they couldn't see clearly.

Yunran left in a hurry, and was in the inner house again, with no one around.Without the cloak on, he suddenly met Sikong Mu Sheng's eyes that were as cold as ice, and felt chills all over his body.

Seeing Yun Ran shivering all over, it seemed to be very cold.Sikong Mu Sheng strode over, took off his cloak and put it on her body.

Yun Ran felt her shoulders sinking, and on the heavy cloak, a smell that did not belong to her spread in her nose.

"Why did you run out without putting on any clothes when it was so cold?" Sikong Mu Sheng said, his eyes fell on the apron around Yunran's waist again, "Going to the kitchen?"

Perhaps Sikong Mu Sheng's tone was too ordinary, just like in the past, Yun Ran subconsciously followed his rhythm and replied: "Well, Mu Yi said that you can't eat well at the palace banquet, let me prepare something for you and come back eat……"

Yun Ran looked at his boss Sikong Mu Sheng with a smile that was not a smile, but couldn't say the rest, so he swallowed it back immediately.

The little girl's expression was a bit annoyed, her frown could not be relaxed, she remembered something, she seemed unhappy.Under the moonlight, her pure white and jade face became more and more jade-like.

"Mu Yi asked you to prepare, and you prepared it?"

Yun Ran stared at Sikong Mu Sheng dumbfounded, what does this mean?
"Of course, if he doesn't say it, I don't know if you want to eat or not." Yun Ran felt that the momentum could not be lost, and immediately pushed back.

As if she had a guilty conscience, she was telling the truth.

"What do you want to know, you can ask me."

Yun Ran's face turned red all of a sudden, and she glared at Sikong Mu Sheng, how could anyone say such things casually to other girls, it's just... just...

Yun Ran glared at him, turned around and ran away, the back of leaving was a little embarrassed.

Sikong Mu Sheng didn't catch up, and if he went in again, he would be in the inner house, which is not a place he can go now.

However, seeing the little girl's appearance, the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

Leaning against the wall, he stared at the direction in which she disappeared with deep eyes.

Perhaps, it is also a good thing to have someone at home who washes your hands and makes soup for you.

What's more, the little girl in their family can make him win the battle even if she is jealous. This feeling is also very strange.

With a chuckle, Sikong Mu Sheng turned around and walked back.

Since the little girl prepared his meal, he should continue to communicate with the dark-faced father-in-law.

When Yunran came back wearing Sikong Musheng's cloak, the girls were a little surprised, but Qiuhe recognized her at a glance, with a cheerful smile in her eyes.

Chunxin and Yuehua were a little surprised, they hurried forward to help the girl change her clothes, and hung the big cloak on the hanger carved with huanghuali.

Seeing the cloud dragon pattern on it, the two looked at each other with smiles like Qiuhe in their eyes.

Only the royal family can use dragon patterns, so the purpose of this cloak is naturally clear.

Yunran blushed half-blushing at the restrained smiles of the girls, then blushed again, couldn't help being annoyed, and said: "Go and see if the food in the kitchen is ready, and send it to Daddy's study when it's ready."

"Yes." Yuehua hurriedly bent down to answer, smiled and retreated to the kitchen.

Chun Xin knew that his girl was embarrassed, so he pursed his lips and pretended nothing happened, and said, "Miss, let me recomb your hair."

Yun Ran hurriedly shook her head, if Sikong Mu Sheng saw that she had not only changed her clothes, but even recombed her hair, she was not sure how to laugh at herself.

Thinking of this, Yun Ran said with a straight face, "No need, this is fine."

Chun Xin was helpless, and didn't dare to force it, so he just glanced at Qiu He.

Qiuhe was sent by the prince, and it was obvious that the girl was not happy to see the prince back, so she couldn't say anything at this time.

The food in the kitchen was quickly sent to the study in the front yard, Gu Fan and Mu Yi were also called over, and Yun Ran was the only one left in the backyard.

Even if there is a marriage contract, it is impossible for Gu Junhe to let the girl go to the study to meet Sikong Musheng at night, he has already turned a blind eye to his sneaking into the Chuhuamen.

When the wine was in full swing, the atmosphere between Weng and his son-in-law gradually improved.

Gu Fan had dinner with Mu Yi and was sent away to sleep. Mu Yi saw that his father was still attached to him, so Sikong and Mu Sheng patted his son's head, "Go."

Only then did Mu Yi happily follow Gu Fan away.

As soon as the child left, Gu Junhe had no scruples, looked at Sikong Musheng and said: "You are too impulsive today, you are not close to bickering with those pens about the matter in the court. But you are always playing like a martial artist, That also makes people look at you as vulgar."

After a few drinks, the old father-in-law became a little superior, and he forgot his dignity when facing the prince and son-in-law, so he began to reprimand him.

The corners of Sikong Mu Sheng's eyes twitched, and he sneered, "Those court officials with corpses who eat vegetarian meals only know how to whitewash the peace with eloquence, how could they know the blood and tears of the soldiers at the border, not letting them see the blood, it's taking advantage of them."

If Yun Ran was here, he would find that Sikong Mu Sheng at this time was similar to the bloodthirsty and violent king in the memory of the original owner.

"You are simply messing around, you are so brave." Gu Junhe frowned and said angrily.

"A man is worthy of the heavens and the earth, and I don't think he's wrong." Sikong Mu Sheng swallowed the wine in his cup, his brows stained with sadness, "Although we returned with a great victory, there are thousands of casualties in this expedition. The soldiers sacrificed their own lives, not only did not get the rewards they deserved, but they also had to be charged with the crime of delaying the fighter plane due to the inconvenience of marching, it is simply ridiculous!"

When the emperor is in power and the villain is in power, even if he bravely overcomes obstacles alone, there will inevitably be moments in his heart that he will not catch.

Gu Junhe was stunned for a moment, looked at Sikong Mu Sheng's angry face, sighed slightly and said: "There are some things that cannot be rushed, the mind is steady and the matter is settled, so take your time."

Sikong Musheng held the white porcelain wine glass tightly, and said after a while: "I'm afraid I can't wait, someone in the court colluded with Beiming, and Yunran Huang'en Temple was attacked, who can guarantee that there will be no next time?"

Gu Junhe: ...

It's about his daughter, Gu Junhe couldn't calm down anymore, "What's going on, what's the attack, please tell me clearly!"

Yunran didn't tell her father about Yunran's stay at Huang'en Temple, because she was afraid that he would be angry and anxious.Unexpectedly, Sikong Mu Sheng missed the trap.

The next day, Yun Ran was scolded by her father, and Sikong Mu Sheng, who got into trouble, sent Gu Fan and Mu Yi to school.

Well, Weng and his son-in-law conspired last night, and they accidentally negotiated until midnight, and they simply didn't go home, so they stayed.

Yun Ranqi's face was darkened, but she still wanted to promise her father that she would never hide anything from him in the future.

When she came out of her father's study, Yun Ran felt remorse in her heart, and when she walked out angrily, she happened to meet Sikong Mu Sheng who came back.

Meet on a narrow road.

Yun Ran stared at him, "Don't you think about it when you talk?"

Sikong Mu Sheng: ...

Seeing that Yunran was really angry, he calmly said, "I didn't know that you still kept it from my father-in-law. For such a confidential matter, remember to tell me earlier next time, and I will keep it secret for you."

Pooh!
Yunran seemed to give him a face!
"Don't worry, there will never be a next time!" Yun Ran gritted her teeth and said, how careless she is, she will make such a mistake next time.

Having been scolded by her own father, she will have to talk about whether she can go out next time.

I haven't seen him for half a year, but Yunran's stature has grown a bit taller, reaching the height of his chin, and the way he gritted his teeth at this time makes people laugh.

Sikong Mu Sheng changed out of his armor, put on a light blue straight dress with his hands folded across his chest, leaned against the courtyard wall, and looked at Yun Ran fixedly, "What did you mean by concubine in your last reply?"

"Ah?" Yunran's eyes wandered, her face flushed, "Well, I still have things to do, so I won't bother the prince." Holding the corner of her skirt, she was about to flee.

Sikong Mu Sheng's straight body moved a step, barely blocking Yun Ran's path, and looked down at her shy, annoyed and embarrassed expression, as if he had angered her again.

"Actually, you can ask me directly if you have anything to do." Sikong Mu Sheng said.

what?
Do you want to marry a concubine?
She's crazy to do that.

"That prince may have misunderstood, I didn't mean that." Yun Ran straightened her body and tried to relax herself as much as possible to reply.

Sikong Mu Sheng looked at her, his face turned cold, "Really?"
