Traitor

Chapter 180 Suspicion in the National Temple
Yunzheng served two cups of fruit tea, and the faint fruity fragrance spread in the wind.

"Don't you people in the capital like to drink tea? Why are you reluctant to let me taste the good tea from your Shangshufu? Could it be that you are reluctant?" Mu Yao looked at the fruit tea in the cup, "Why do you let me taste the tea? It's really stingy to drink these."

"The emperor has issued a decree. If you want to come to the princess, you will know that everything in the Shangshu Mansion will be yours sooner or later. There is no need for me to hide it." Zhao Wuyou took a sip of sweet fruit tea, "Women are born with a cold body. , Drinking too much tea is not good for your body, it is not as good as these fruit teas to nourish yin and lungs."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Wuyou looked at her with a smile, "If you really like to drink tea, let Yunzheng go make another cup. Longjing, Biluochun, Queu, you can name them all, this Shangshufu has them. You can Pick whatever you want, it’s all yours anyway.”

This made Mu Yao's face turn red, "Whatever you call it is mine, you are really shameless when you speak."

Zhao Wuyou smiled back and did not refute.Zhao Wuyou knows better than anyone else what it means for a girl to have a red face.If after a while, Mu Yao is so teased that she runs away, it is reckoned that this matter will be done.

The wind made her cough twice, and immediately put down the cup in her hand.

Mu Yao was taken aback, seeing Zhao Wuyou's pale face, coughing and trembling slightly, "What's wrong with you?"

"As the princess saw, it's an old illness that won't be cured in this life." She looked at Mu Yao helplessly, "Does the princess dare to marry me like this? If the princess is afraid, then It doesn't matter, I am willing to ask the emperor for an order, and I will definitely not hurt the reputation of the princess."

After speaking, she began to cough lightly again.

Yunzheng quickly stepped forward to cover Zhao Wuyou with a shawl, "My lord, it's cool here, let's go and rest!"

Mu Yao hurriedly got up, "You should go and rest, look at your fragile appearance, people who don't know will think how I bullied you."

Standing up slowly, Zhao Wuyou smiled meaningfully, with a little warmth in his eyes, "Is the Princess distressed?"

"You!" Mu Yao bit her lower lip tightly, "You look like a gentleman, why do you speak like a rascal?"

Zhao Wuyou smiled palely, "Didn't all consensual love in this world start with a warm rascal? After all, someone has to take a step first, otherwise they will all go around in circles, how can they develop further? Princess Do you want to guard the ice, or hold your hand for a hundred years?"

Mu Yao was speechless, really speechless.

"A man has to take the lead on the battlefield, so in this love scene, he should bow his head first." Zhao Wuyou sighed softly, "The princess thinks what the minister said makes sense?"

"You are a slippery person, I can't say no to you!" Mu Yao breathed slightly, "I won't tell you anymore."

She trotted away quickly, and Zhao Wuyou bent down behind her and bowed, "Respectfully send off the Princess."

Mu Yao turned her head while running, making it difficult to tell whether her expression was happy or angry.Only this Huo Huo kept shouting loudly, "Princess? Princess? You run slowly, be careful not to sprain your feet, princess—slow down!"

Seeing the backs of the master and servant leaving in a hurry, Suxi stepped forward and smiled, "Young master really can take all kinds of things, why did the princess get tricked? After all, all men and women in this world are Lustful people, looking at the attitude of this sick young master, I really feel pity for him!"

Zhao Wuyou sighed lightly, "Speak humanly."

Su Xi coughed twice, and said flatly, "Young master is really amazing!"

"If I don't have two brushes, how would you know how many men in this world speak from their hearts and how many are just words?" Zhao Wuyou let out a long breath, closed his clothes and said, " Let's go back!"

"My lord, do you really want to ignore the princess?" Suxi asked.

Zhao Wuyou thought for a while, "Let's all live in peace!"

Indeed, when things got to this point, she couldn't act rashly.The Prince Qi You's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion have obviously teamed up. With his own power, how can he compete with the two.It took several months to go on an envoy to a neighboring country, the conspiracy of these two people must not have happened overnight, so the calculations of these two people must be full of plans.

Zhao Wuyou felt that he had to stand still and see clearly the true thoughts of his father and King Qi You, so that he could prescribe the right medicine and find out the omissions.But dad thinks he is extremely cautious in doing things, so where is this so-called omission?

omission?

It seems that the omission of the entire Prime Minister's Mansion is due to her and her mother.As for the others, there are no major flaws.Zhao Wuyou thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a reason, only felt that his brain hurt.

The marriage between Shangshu Mansion and Fengyang Princess soon became known to everyone inside and outside the capital.

Inside Chitose Mansion.

Mu Baili rubbed his brows, Lu Guoan carefully brought the cup, "Master, Mr. Zhao is getting married. This matter - I think it was not Mr. Zhao's own idea. But the emperor is pressing down on him, so Mr. Zhao is going to do it too." The imperial decree was accepted out of desperation."

"Of course that's not what she meant." Mu Baili took the cup, "Give her ten guts, and she wouldn't dare to marry the princess." If you want to blame, you can only blame Zhao Wuyou for being Zhao Song's daughter , The so-called tiger poison is not eating the child is just talking.

Taking a sip of tea, what I think about in my mind is the romance of yesterday.It turns out that some things are really addictive, just like certain people who show up in your life.When you think of her, the corners of your lips rise inadvertently.

"My lord, Mr. Zhao wants to marry the princess. I'm afraid it's not easy to solve this matter." Lu Guoan frowned, "There hasn't been much movement on the other side of King Qi You so far. I don't know what kind of wishful thinking he is planning."

"Just keep an eye on it." Mu Baili was waiting for news, waiting for news from Zhao Wuyou.

But now that Zhao Wuyou stood still, he naturally couldn't make a move at will.Now that the imperial court is discussing to send troops to Huanglan, Dongchang should be vigilant in these matters. If he pays too much attention to Zhao Wuyou's marriage, it will arouse suspicion.

Zhao Song's eyes are poisonous, otherwise he would not be able to raise such a cunning daughter as Zhao Wuyou.

Lu Guoan saluted, "I understand, but the princess just ran out of the Shangshu mansion in a hurry. According to the report from the spies, the princess blushed. Master, it must be that Mr. Zhao is repeating the old trick again, and I have a voice second?"

Mu Baili squinted at him, "The sky outside the city is high enough to bury you."

Hearing this, Lu Guoan frowned slightly, not daring to say anything.

It should be known that that is the Princess of Fengyang, and now that the imperial decree has been issued, even if it is enough to be buried, it should be signed in Master Zhao's name and entered into the Zhao family's genealogy.Today's Princess Fengyang will be the justifiable Mrs. Zhao in the future.

But in front of Mu Baili, Lu Guoan didn't dare to say too much, lest Lord Qiansui get angry and burn down the Qiansui Mansion.

Shen Yan's voice came from outside, "Master, madam is here."

Shenandoah?

Mu Baili frowned, and said lightly, "Come in."

Xue Lan entered the door with the cup in her hand, but when she saw the cup in Mu Baili's hand, she frowned slightly.Looking down at the teacup in her hand, Xue Lan smiled awkwardly, "It seems that I don't need it."

"Speak up if you have something to say!" Mu Baili frowned and put down the cup in his hand.

"The prescription of the Living Human Gu is about to be completed. I'm here to tell you. Also, I heard that the National Temple is very popular. I want to go to the National Temple." Xue Lan smiled a little sadly, as if she had already placed herself in a humble situation.

In fact, Mu Baili didn't want to see such a humble Xue Lan, he and her were playing games, but sometimes he still thought about the past friendship.After all, they walked out together. Although the promise back then was a joke when she was young, it was ultimately a mistake in her life.

"Let people follow, be careful yourself." Mu Baili narrowed his eyes.

Xue Lan nodded, turned and walked out of the study.

Glancing at Xue Lan's leaving back, Lu Guoan's face was slightly troubled, "Ma'am, she—"

"I didn't want to keep her, but I just wanted to keep Wang Shaojun." Said to keep Wang Shaojun, but in fact, I just wanted Wang Shaojun's formula, the prescription of the living person Gu, "keep an eye on Wang Shaojun, get the living The recipe for human gu, send it away immediately."

"Yes!" Lu Guoan nodded, "The other side of Shangshu's mansion, I don't care about it?"

"If you want to control it, you can't control it." Mu Baili rubbed his brows. It was clear that King Qi You and Zhao Song joined forces. If Dongchang got involved, the emperor would definitely think that he was narrow-minded and fighting for power.That's why he has to show loyalty and patriotism, and can't make trouble at this juncture.All the thoughts should be put on the matter of sending out troops.

It is imperative to go on a journey of barren waters.

There are many barbarians in Huanglan, but they will win the world immediately, so the cavalry in Huanglan is the strongest among these countries, and they rarely meet opponents.Mu Baili felt that he had to think of a way to see how to make the cavalry of the Huanglan people unable to let go.

When Xue Lan walked out of the room, she was still holding a cup.Walking slowly in the long corridor, Qing Ruo, the servant girl behind her, shouted in a low voice, "Madam, let this tea be handed over to the servant girl!"

Taking a deep breath, Xue Lan paused with wry smiles twice, looked at the cup in her hand, and suddenly smashed the cup on the ground, "No need." Yes, she is not Zhao Wuyou, how could he Curious about the tea she serves?
The tea splashed everywhere, and the servants behind him bowed their heads in shock, not daring to make a sound.

With a straight posture and a fine attire, what more could she ask for?All the prayers are nothing more than struggling in the cracks, hoping for that little bit of love.She thought, maybe even a little bit of affection is gone now!

She thought that her mind was too chaotic, and she should go to calm down.The capital is too prosperous, so prosperous that people are at a loss for what to do. Only the ancient Buddha blue lamp can wash away the shackles of the whole body.

Taking a few people with her, Xue Lan went to the National Temple.

She did not disclose her identity, and the host only regarded her as an ordinary pilgrim.But how could the people who came to the National Temple be ordinary people, they must be officials or relatives of the emperor, so they dare not neglect.

Xue Lan lived in the wing room, listening to the bursts of Sanskrit sounds outside the window, the sound of the morning bell and evening drum, really made people feel calm physically and mentally.She stared blankly at the view of the garden full of flowers outside the window, thinking about the feeling of being alone in the empty room these nights, tears fell silently.

On the wedding night, she saw him go out, and that night...Zhao Wuyou returned to the city in the middle of the night.

Qingruo was guarding outside, and the little novice came in to serve tea, and said respectfully, "Almsgiver, Brother Zhang Shan asked the little monk to ask if the vegetarian food should be sent to the Zen room? Or should you go to the Shantang by yourself?"

Xue Lan wiped away her tears, "I'll go to the Shantang by myself, it's just a good time to take a walk!"

"Yes!" The monk bowed his head and walked out.

Letting out a long breath, Xue Lan got up and walked off the wooden couch, but frowned in shock when she passed the table.She quickly walked out of the door, glanced coldly outside, then quickly stepped back into the room, her gaze fell on the note under the cup.

It was sent by the little monk just now, but she was only concerned with wiping away her tears, for fear of being seen crying, so she didn't pay attention to what the little monk looked like.Removed the cup and took out the note, Xue Lan's eyes darkened slightly.

There are only two words on it: Houshan.

This handwriting...
