Marrying the dandy prince, the princess wants to usurp the throne

After hearing Mu Jiusheng's voice, Zhuang Hao turned his gaze to her.

This was the first time that Zhuang Hao saw Mu Jiusheng up close. It was not like he had never seen him before, but he just glanced at him from a distance and walked away every time.

This time, when he looked at her from a close distance, he did not feel a sense of distance from Mu Jiusheng, but he always felt that she had a vague aura of a superior.

Thinking of his daughter's trust in Mu Jiusheng, Zhuang Hao couldn't help laughing. It seemed that his daughter's vision was still accurate. This Princess Jinghe was indeed different from Mu Qilin and the others.

"Old minister, I see Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"No need to be polite. I am here only to convey my father's will. You have been exhausted physically and mentally these past few days. Just get up."

Mu Jiusheng personally helped Zhuang Hao up.

Mu Qilin stared at Mu Jiusheng. What she said was just a veiled suggestion that he had not taken good care of her daughter? !

"Brother, what happened? Are your eyes uncomfortable? If that's the case, I'll ask the imperial physician to take a look at you. Brother, you are the crown prince after all. If there is any problem with your eyes, you can't be the crown prince anymore!!!"

Mu Jiusheng pretended to be surprised.

Mu Qilin wanted to chop Mu Jiusheng to pieces. Why does a woman have to have a mouth? !

He gritted his teeth and followed Mu Jiusheng to the imperial study, where Mu Yuchuan had already been waiting for them.

He had already heard about the flower-viewing banquet. To be honest, Mu Yuchuan didn't care what happened to the sisters Zhuang Ziyu and Zhuang Ziman. There were so many people dying in the world every day. How could he possibly care about each and every one of them?

All we can say is that they were unlucky and were targeted.

What Mu Yuchuan really cares about is that the person who did it was so bold as to do it within the palace. This time it was the sisters Zhuang Ziyu and Zhuang Ziman. If this person sets his sights on him next time, wouldn’t it be too late?

This is why Mu Yuchuan wanted to question someone.

"My son, I will meet my father."

"I see your Majesty!"

"Okay, everyone, get up. I've heard about what happened this time, my dear Minister Zhuang, you don't have to be too sad. I've already sent people to investigate this matter. Once the results are found, I will definitely give you justice." Mu Yuchuan said a few words in a routine manner to show his concern.

Zhuang Hao felt a chill in his heart, sneered, and then said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration."

This is the heart of the emperor. If something happened to the prime minister’s children today, what kind of expression would the emperor have?

Zhuang Hao knew it without thinking.

However, he was just a small governor of Yuzhou, far away in the world, and the emperor did not take him seriously at all.

Zhuang Hao even thought that if something really happened to his daughter this time, then the only outcome of this matter would be that his two daughters would suffer the consequences. No one would stand on his side, and no one would help him investigate the truth.

The more he thought about it, the colder Zhuang Hao felt.

Suddenly, a voice came from beside him, "Father, Zhuang Ziman has not been found yet, but Zhuang Ziyu is suffering at home now. So many doctors in the Imperial Hospital are unable to cure Zhuang Ziyu's illness. I'm afraid she will have to live with this face for the rest of her life.

But this happened at the flower viewing banquet after all. No matter what, the Imperial Concubine and the Crown Prince should not avoid this fact.

You see, they should at least compensate Governor Zhuang a little. I heard that Governor Zhuang has only two daughters in his family. One of them is missing, and the other has lost her beauty. Governor Zhuang will have a hard time in the future.

Father, you are kind-hearted and a role model for all people. Many people in the capital have already known about this incident and are watching what our royal family will do. We cannot let this go hastily."

As usual, Mu Jiusheng first praised Mu Yuchuan to a higher position.

As an emperor, what he likes most is to hear good words. As soon as Mu Yuchuan heard what Mu Jiusheng said, he felt that he could not let his subjects down!

That's true. Zhuang Hao's two daughters met with an accident at Shangguan Yu's flower-viewing banquet. If he didn't express anything at all, it would be fine if his ministers were disappointed in him, but what would the people say about him if the news got out?

Although Mu Yuchuan loves Shangguan Yu and has high hopes for Mu Qilin, he loves himself more!

Mu Yuchuan looked at Mu Qilin and said earnestly, "Your sister is right. Your mother and you were indeed negligent in this matter. So, the matter of finding Zhuang Ziman and treating Zhuang Ziyu will be left to you. In addition, give Governor Zhuang a consolation fund of 50,000 taels first. If it is not enough, then deduct it from the later allotment."

As soon as Mu Yuchuan said this, Mu Qilin's face turned pale.

He didn't know what bad luck he had. Wasn't it just for the purpose of choosing a concubine? Why didn't he choose the Crown Princess, but instead lost his wife and his army? !

Fifty thousand taels is not a lot, but it is not a small amount either!

"Your Majesty is righteous!" Before Mu Qilin could speak, Mu Jiusheng spoke first.

There was no room for Mu Qilin to regret.

"If the people know about this, they will also sigh that the emperor is merciful and worthy of being the Lord of Chong'an!"

Have mercy on me, sir!

Mu Qilin looked at Mu Jiusheng hatefully.

When leaving the imperial study, Mu Qilin stopped Mu Jiusheng and asked, "Did you do this on purpose?"

"What do you mean, my royal brother? I don't quite understand." Mu Jiusheng pretended to be innocent.

"You don't have to pretend to know something when you don't, Mu Jiusheng. You came to a flower-viewing banquet without being invited, and you mixed with Zhuang Ziyu and Zhuang Ziman for no apparent reason.

How come I don’t know when you met Zhuang Ziyu and Zhuang Ziman?

Nothing happened on normal days, but on the day you came, something happened to Zhuang Ziyu and Zhuang Ziman.

Do you think I really can't imagine that this matter has something to do with you? ! "

"My royal brother, what I said is true. I play with Zhuang Ziyu and Zhuang Ziman because I think I get along well with them.

Moreover, when Zhuang Ziman got into trouble, I was at the flower-viewing banquet and did not leave. How did I manage to split myself into two and kidnap Zhuang Ziman?

My royal brother should know that I have no power. If I want to mobilize power, first my father must give me power. It's just a flower-viewing banquet. My father is not crazy. Can he still give me power?

I know that my brother is suspicious, but my sister really didn't do anything. If my brother really has doubts, then go ahead and investigate. No matter when, my sister will cooperate."

After Mu Jiusheng finished speaking, he nodded slightly at Mu Qilin, then turned around and left gracefully under Mu Qilin's dead fish eyes.

It would be strange if Mu Qilin could find out what the God-Slaying Temple was doing.

As for Zhuang Ziyu, she had taken the medicine herself, and the note and the paper wrapping the medicine had been burned long ago. Mu Qilin didn't have any surveillance, so it would be strange if he could find out.

Zhuang Hao followed Mu Jiusheng and watched a show.

I can't help but sigh that Princess Jinghe is still the one with the means.
