Long Song Fenghua: The Demon Queen Confused the King's Heart

Chapter 206

"Annoyed or not, let him toss!" The second lady said angrily, "It's hard for this mansion to be more stable, but he came to provoke this again!"

After finishing speaking, the second wife felt a little guilty again, "Changge, the second aunt understands how much you treat us, you can just let him go, and don't take those bastard things he said to your heart." Go, as long as the second aunt is still in the mansion for a day, she will never lose your position as the second young lady!"

Mu Changge laughed, his brows and eyes soft, "Second Aunt is really looking more and more like a housewife now, but Second Aunt should not be too concerned, I don't care about elder brother's angry words."

After entering the room, the two of them sat down, and the second wife sighed again, "I never thought that Hong Yu would have such an impulsive day."

"That's all, the second aunt won't say anything to you about the unhappy things." The second lady waved to the maid behind her, and spread the things she brought on the table. It was a new lake blue dress.

"I'm going to enter the palace tomorrow, and I don't know if you have prepared any clothes, so I will prepare one for you on my own initiative."

Comparing the clothes to Mu Changge, she glanced at the maid beside her, and the second lady sent her out again, "Let's all wait outside, let me have a few words of kindness with the second lady."

The servant girl responded, then quickly exited the door, casually wandered out of the Qiancui Courtyard, looked around quietly, and immediately disappeared...

The next day, early in the morning, the carriage stopped outside the gate of Mu Mansion.

Dealing with natural disasters is different from dealing with man-made disasters. There is always a sense of dealing with God. Therefore, before the imperial court dispatches disaster relief officials, they must first bring their relatives and perform rituals such as worshiping heaven in the palace before they can officially set off.

Apart from the young miss Mu Qinying, there were naturally many people from the Mu family, and they followed into the palace.

The palace is different from ordinary people, the security is strict, after passing the gates, it is almost noon when it is time to sacrifice to the sky.

The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was presided over by the emperor and empress. Mu Changge, who had been reborn, entered the palace again.

Memories of previous lives came to mind one after another. In this magnificent palace, every glazed tile and bluestone slab was as familiar to Mu Changge as the veins in his body.

The emperor and the empress were standing on the high platform for offering sacrifices to the sky. The emperor's beard was already a little gray, and he was still in good spirits. However, in his gait and expression, occasionally it was inevitable to reveal a bit of fatigue that was approaching old age.

The queen can't tell what age she is, and she is well maintained, except for the majestic gaze that is not angry and majestic, which is definitely not something that ordinary women can have.

For a moment, Mu Changge looked in a daze.

The place where the queen stood was once the place where she was conferred the title of Empress Bai'an.

At that time, she always thought that her own future would be bright, but who knows, she used her own flesh and blood to pave the way for others!
The past was full of memories, unforgettable, and the pain that penetrated deep into the bone marrow came out again at this moment, turning into thousands of poisonous insects, gnawing at her fiercely!
The coldness in Mu Changge's eyes frightened Bizhu beside her so much that her whole body was shrouded in a layer of cold air. She didn't care to think about what happened to Mu Changge, so she reached out her hand in a hurry and pulled her in a hurry.

And in that instant, Mu Changge also came back to his senses immediately, and knelt down along with the others.

Bizhu's cold sweat had already soaked her clothes, and if Mu Changge was the only one who made a mistake and refused to kneel during this ceremony, it would not be a simple sentence and he would be punished!
"Miss, are you feeling unwell?" Bizhu asked in a low voice, quietly looking around to see if she could find Qi Jinzhi or the prince, so that if something goes wrong, someone will stand up and defend Mu Chang Song.

"It's okay." Mu Changge lowered his eyes and narrowed his gaze, his expression was already as calm as water.

If even this emotional ups and downs are difficult to control, how can she get to where she is today?

The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven lasted until noon, and after it was over, it was customary to hold a banquet in the palace, which could be considered as a last encouragement to the court officials who were about to go to the disaster site.

If it is said that worshiping heaven needs to be rigorous and solemn, the banquet held by the queen of worshiping heaven is much more relaxed. They sit in order according to their status. As long as they don't do anything too outrageous, they will never be punished.

Mu Wenxian had a rare new dress today, he looked much more refined, and the smell of alcohol on his body had disappeared.

Mu Wenxian and his second wife were next to Mu Hongyu's seat. Just as Mu Hongyu was about to sit there, they happened to pass by Mu Changge's seat, and stopped immediately.

Looking sideways, Mu Hongyu sneered, "I didn't even look at my identity, but I dared to come here."

His voice was not loud, and only a few people around could hear him clearly. The second lady's complexion suddenly changed, and she hurriedly tried to pull Mu Hongyu back, but was stopped by Mu Wenxian without a trace.

Facing the look of contempt and disgust, Mu Changge slightly pursed the corners of his lips, raised his eyes, and smiled.

"What is the identity of the eldest brother, what is the identity of me, in the final analysis, they are all the subjects of the emperor."

"You only have two mouths." Mu Hongyu said contemptuously, then went straight to his seat, sat upright, and ignored the slightly sullen expression of the second lady.

Not far away, a pair of gloomy eyes are quietly watching this scene...

Mu Changge sat still and looked around the palace. Qi Jinzhi was an honored guest, sitting with the crown prince Su Yunhao, next to the emperor and empress.

Below that, there are people from the Li Mansion, just like the Mu Mansion, there are not many of them.In the past, Li Ziyan always felt that going to the palace for banquets was boring, and would always find excuses to avoid it, but it was rare to be able to come today.

Li Yuanfan sat with Grand Tutor Li, his calm demeanor was far better than other people of his age, even the emperor treated him with special respect.

"I heard that Li Aiqing has had trouble sleeping and eating these days because of the flood, and has read all kinds of files. Among the younger generation, there is a subject like Li Aiqing, and I am very relieved!"

After hearing the certificate of respect, Li Yuanfan was respectful at first, without revealing any mistakes, thanked the emperor for his appreciation, and said humbly: "The emperor should really be pleased, but there is actually someone else."

"It's hard to sleep and eat, and it's nothing to read files all over the place. Master Mu is the one who truly admires me."

"I heard that the money for disaster relief is easy to be targeted by those desperate villains, and they will do everything possible to move it away. These days, Mr. Mu even stays with the disaster relief money for food and lodging, lest His Majesty's love for the people will be met by those villains tarnish."

"Compared with the sincere heart of Mr. Mu, these actions of the minister are nothing, obviously not worth mentioning."

In the imperial court, there has always been a lot of flattering people. Hearing the words, they immediately stood up, "Congratulations to the emperor. It is the emperor's blessing to meet two young talents who are so dedicated. It is the blessing of Bai'an !"

The emperor heard Long Yan Dayue, and he also looked at Mu Hongyu with a friendly expression, "Mu Aiqing, is this true?"

Mu Hongyu responded respectfully: "I dare not exaggerate, but this is the duty that a courtier should do. I should not praise you like this."

Mu Hongyu's attitude was humble, and the emperor admired him very much. He sighed that what the court needs is such a young talent, and he should even open his mouth to reward him.

"Appreciate Aiqing's Pearl—"

The emperor rewarded him with a smile on his face, but at this moment, a man who looked like a eunuch rushed in from outside the hall, and under the astonished gaze of all the civil and military officials in the hall, he said with a panicked expression: "Your majesty! Slave!" Something important to report!"

He was too anxious when he rushed in, he interrupted the emperor's reward directly.

This move undoubtedly greatly damaged the face of the emperor. In the blink of an eye, the face of the emperor was covered with a layer of subtle gloom.

"Bold slave!" Eunuch Guo, who had already cultivated the ability to perceive words and demeanor, said angrily with a flick of his whisk, "Why do you need to shout like this!"

The man knelt down on the ground with a thud, "The emperor calms down his anger, the slave really has to report it, this matter is of great importance, we cannot delay it even for a moment!"

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the emperor lightly, and Eunuch Guo turned his body sideways, waiting for the emperor's intention obediently.

"Say." There was no expression on the emperor's face, and he only said such a word in a deep voice.

"The ten thousand taels of government silver for disaster relief, no... no, it's gone!"

Hundreds of civil and military officials gasped in unison. Ten thousand taels of official silver is just a drop in the bucket for the Bai'an treasury, and this is only a part of what needs to be given before the disaster relief.

But the ten thousand taels of official silver has an extraordinary meaning. If anyone dares to use their brains on this disaster relief silver tael, they will have to rob their families and kill them.

Suddenly, the hall was silent.

"Who is so bold that he dares to touch the people's life-saving silver taels!" The emperor's mouth sank heavily, and he said angrily, "Why did the official silver disappear, explain it clearly!"

"Yes Yes……"

"Tomorrow is the day for the two adults to set off. Today, I will move all the money into the carriage. The person I brought with you today has a new servant. He is not smart enough. When moving, he accidentally dropped it. One fall!"

The man had a bitter face, and all the hair on his forehead was wet with cold sweat, "The box hit the ground, and it happened to break a part of the box, and the servant just watched, watched... rolled out of the box A few stones!"

"The slave panicked at the time. The box should have been official silver, why did it turn into a stone!? The servant didn't care about that much, so he quickly opened the box and found...the box contained Yes, there is no shadow of official bankers, they are all piled together of stones!"

Speaking of this, the man's hands and feet trembled uncontrollably, his face was pale, and the words he said made everyone present break into a cold sweat——
