Hearing this, Mu Jiasong immediately stood up, as if his buttocks were pricked by a needle, and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please think twice!"

The emperor quickly stood up, walked around the imperial desk, bent over and helped Mu Jiasong up.

"Uncle cousin, I have thought it over, otherwise I would not have brought it up so soon after receiving the memorial from the chief minister."

The emperor helped Mu Jiasong to a chair nearby and asked him to sit down forcefully. He did not return to his original seat, but sat down next to Mu Jiasong, looking like an uncle and nephew chatting casually.

"My cousin, you should know that as a king, you cannot be blinded by one thing. Whether the country under my rule is really as healthy as those ministers reported, I need a third pair of eyes to see.

Of course, I did not see everything with my own eyes, but I have been on the throne for nearly ten years and have been trapped in the palace for nearly ten years. If it had not been for that coup d'état, I would have wanted to be a prince guarding the border.

Uncle, please just take care of your nephew, okay?"

Mu Jiasong looked at the emperor who revealed his true nature in front of him and sighed helplessly: "Your Majesty, if you were not the emperor, but just an ordinary nephew of this old minister, I would definitely not stop you.

But, Your Majesty, if something really happened to you, what would happen to Zhaoguo?

You haven't given birth to a future heir to the Kingdom of Zhao yet. If you have a child, I would have other options and would certainly not object."

emperor:"……"

How come this old man always relates everything to offspring?

"Uncle cousin, I promise that I will be unharmed. Is that ok?"

"What guarantee can Your Majesty give? What if something unexpected happens? Will it be too late for Your Majesty to regret?" Mu Jiasong's three consecutive questions made the emperor's words stuck in his throat.

Then he sighed again and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, even if you don't care about the people of Zhao Kingdom, you have to think about the Queen Mother? Think about Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

When she heard him mention her sister who had been missing for many years, her eyes lit up: "Uncle cousin, in fact, the main purpose of my trip this time is to find my sister.

It is like this, I have asked the imperial master to calculate, and he said that I will definitely be able to find my imperial sister during this trip.

Uncle cousin, you also know how important the imperial sister is to the Zhao Kingdom."

"Really? Did the Imperial Master really predict that the Emperor would be able to find Her Royal Highness the Princess on this trip?" Mu Jiasong expressed his doubt, feeling that the Emperor was fooling him again.

The emperor nodded: "Really, my words are as good as gold."

Actually, he was just in a good mood and wanted to test it out. If possible, he really wanted to go out and get some fresh air. The palace was almost suffocating him.

In this situation, isn't this just a matter of talking nonsense?

Mu Jiasong thought for a moment and said, "Can the emperor ask the imperial master to come to the palace to tell another divination?"

As if he had guessed that the emperor would use the excuse that the "imperial master is in seclusion", he took the lead and said, "If the imperial master personally approves the calculation, not only will the old minister not stop it, but other ministers will also have no reason to stop it. This can reduce a lot of overt troubles for the emperor after he leaves the palace."

The emperor thought about it and asked Eunuch Fu to personally invite the imperial teacher to the palace. At the same time, he gave Eunuch Fu a hint with his eyes. Eunuch Fu understood, and the two of them completed the secret communication and bowed to leave the imperial study.

I don't know if it was tacit understanding or the emperor was lucky, but when the Imperial Master was mentioned, the Imperial Master, who had not appeared for a long time, suddenly appeared in the palace. As soon as Eunuch Fu walked out of the imperial study and the palace gate, he saw the Imperial Master coming towards him.

Eunuch Fu hurriedly went up to pay his respects and greet the Imperial Master, and took the opportunity to inform the Imperial Master of the matters concerning the Imperial Study in case the Emperor was exposed.
