In danger, he traveled through time to save her, and the black-bellied prince doted on her

Emperor Ming had been helped out of the palace. Li Xu sat on the dragon chair, the throne of the emperor, supreme, commanding all officials with a cold expression and a tone without a trace of warmth:

"Since it is an imperial decree, I believe Minister Mu can handle it."

"Retreat from the DPRK"

Mu Chen, Mu Jingyi, Jiang Yanqing and the others showed incredible expressions. Could it be that this new emperor, this Li Xu, had been in disguise all along? Today's palace coup happened without any effort.

If there was no Mu Jinan, and if there were no imperial guards and imperial guards who had long been replaced, could he have sat on the throne?

Mu Jinan's heart suddenly stopped, her brain buzzed, and she stood there in a daze. All the ministers walked out of the hall and looked at Li Xu's leaving figure. She stared at the dragon throne for a long time.

Is this the imperial power politics? Is this being used?

She personally handed the throne to the emperor, and the first thing her uncle said when he took the throne was to send her to marry.

Marry a princess? Do you still want to marry a princess?

The hall was empty, with only her figure left. A beam of sunlight shone in from outside the hall and fell at her feet.

The Xuan Zheng Hall was freezing cold, attacking her heart and every bone in her body.

Her face was gloomy and she was wearing mourning clothes under her official uniform. That beam of light could illuminate anyone, so why couldn't it illuminate her life?

All her efforts, the past ten years, all the suffering she had endured, she still had illusions about this world.

Everything came to nothing.

What a joke.

Mu Jinan laughed crazily, his eyes were red as if they were dripping blood: "Haha, haha"

"Marriage, Princess Yifang"

Her voice echoed in the Xuanzheng Hall...

On the long street outside the palace, the shade of the trees blocked the sunlight, and the gaps between them cast spots of light on the purple robes and crimson official uniforms. Their laughter was extremely ironic.

Seeing that Cui Hengling became the prime minister, Shen Yuzhong immediately changed direction. He temporarily put aside the idea of ​​competing for the position of prime minister. Now, as long as Li Xu and Cui Hengling did not join forces to kill him, he would be lucky.

After gaining Li Xu's trust in the future, he will discuss the position of prime minister. He will first join Cui Hengling's name, hoping to dispel the hatred among the previous people fighting for the position of prime minister.

Shen Yuzhong even bent down in a different way, and said with a respectful and flattering look:

"Prime Minister Cui, congratulations on your promotion to the right prime minister. Only if you are the prime minister can Shengguo prosper."

Cui Hengling simply responded to him:

"Yes, thank you, Master Shen."

Cui Hengling looked at Shen Yuzhong's flattering appearance. He was from a prominent aristocratic family, always considered himself noble and scheming. He was somewhat disgusted with Shen Yuzhong, but also wanted more people to support him.

Standing in the distance was Li Xu's counselor, Pei Yun, who had finally waited for the moment to enter the court openly.

He had been promoted by Li Xu, but Li Xu did not want the court officials to talk about it, so he only temporarily gave him the official position of a fifth-rank Zhongshu Sheren.

Promise to continue to be promoted in the future.

In today's palace coup, he was also the one who gave advice behind the scenes and made Li Xu and Mu Jinan cooperate.

He was even more dissatisfied with Meng Songqing, the Grand Tutor, and wanted to wait for the future.

Pei Yun walked over slowly, bowed and said, "Prime Minister Cui, congratulations, I am Pei Yun."

Cui Hengling had heard of him a long time ago. He was Li Xu's counselor. Although he looked down on him because of his humble family background and unknown origins.

But knowing that Pei Yun had played a role in today's incident, Li Xu trusted Pei Yun more than he trusted Cui Hengling. He was willing to put aside his pride as prime minister and return the gift:

"Sir Pei, we will serve together in the court in the future. We will do our best for His Majesty. You can come to the mansion when you are free."

Pei Yun was a sinister villain, but he was also a little clever. Thanks to the ingenious plan left by Li Heng, he helped Li Xu ascend the throne step by step. He smiled and said:

"Prime Minister Cui's words are flattering to me."

Every step Jiang Yin took as he walked out of the Xuan Zheng Hall was extremely heavy. Who on earth killed his son? He looked at Cui Hengling from afar and saw people surrounding him.

Jiang Yin lowered his head. He would not forget that Cui Hengling took the sword from Li Xu's hand today and wanted to kill him, but he would not openly become an enemy of Cui Hengling.

Jiang Yin came forward and congratulated him:

"Mr. Cui, congratulations."

Cui Hengling pretended that nothing had happened. He knew that there were no eternal friends or enemies. He could still use Jiang Yin and Cai Tong, but he would be wary. If someone pointed a sword at him, he would be angry.

He pretended to be happy and said, "Thank you, Lord Jiang. Your Majesty was intimidating me just now. I had no choice but to take the sword."

"I hope you will forgive me."

Jiang Yin smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, as long as His Majesty ascends the throne, everything will be worth it"

They seemed to melt away.

Xiao Hechuan was somewhat puzzled. Facing Mu Jinan, he was still worried and wanted to send Mu Jinan away as soon as possible:

"Will Your Majesty really allow Mu Jinan to marry?"

He Qiushan lowered his eyes, confident, and smiled:

"She is so powerful that she has helped Your Majesty to seize the throne today. Your Majesty must be wary of her."

"Every emperor will be suspicious of a general who commands a large army."

Cui Hengling nodded. He was a hereditary successor. He looked down on the poor and was unwilling to serve in the same court with a woman. It didn't matter who was the emperor. He said bluntly:

"You and I are still important officials in the court. As long as we support each other, our status will never be shaken."

Cui Hengling watched Wang Huaiyang hiding from him from afar. He said goodbye quickly and shouted:

"Huaiyang"

Wang Huaiyang stopped. He always wanted to distance himself from his uncle. He was even more dissatisfied with Cui Hengling for opposing Mu Jinan many times. He looked at Cui Hengling with a cold face:

"Your humble servant has met Prime Minister Cui."

Cui Hengling saw how indifferent he was, and knew that he had a close relationship with Mu Jinan in the Ministry of War, but this was his most beloved nephew, so he was somewhat displeased:

"Huaiyang, you are the child of Qinghe Cui and Langya Wang, how can you side with that woman Mu Jinan?"

“You still call your elders like that.”

Wang Huaiyang didn't want to waste time with him. He was thinking about Mu Jinan's marriage and was indignant:

"Uncle, if you can help the country and the people and uphold justice, your nephew will be respectful to you."

"You pointed your spears and crossbows at a weak woman, a woman who had killed a traitor. If she hadn't summoned An Xuan to Chang'an to imprison him, 30,000 cavalry would have marched straight into Chang'an, and the city would have been destroyed by fire. How many innocent people would have been killed and injured?"

"Perhaps you and I would have died long ago. In my nephew's heart, Mu Jinan is a heroine, better than any man, even better than you and me."

"You old ministers are in cahoots with each other and want to send her to marry. You deserve to be killed."

Cui Hengling had never heard anyone dare to abuse him like this, let alone his nephew. He could no longer bear it and slapped Wang Huaiyang in the face, leaving five finger marks on his cheek:

"Others can't see it, and they think I can't see it either. You haven't gotten married yet and you don't want to marry Xin'er because you are obsessed with Mu Jin'an. She is a disaster and killed King Liang. Do you want Cui and Wang to be dragged down by her?"

"I am already the prime minister, but my daughter still wronged you?"

Cui Xintong is the daughter of Cui Hengling. Cui Hengling feels that Wang Huaiyang is young, promising, hardworking, and self-disciplined, and is a good husband. He discussed with his sister Cui Qiaoyue and arranged for Cui Xintong and Wang Huaiyang to get married.
