Looking at Tai'an from the full moon

Xiao Zuochen watched Xiao Zuoming chase in the direction of Yu without stopping him. Yueying also followed him. Xiao Zuoming would be fine.

Perhaps it was because of his personality that he was unable to pursue Concubine Yun. He also hoped that the relationship between Xiao Zuoming and Yu would not be the same as the relationship between him and his mother.

"Master, the Emperor..."

"It's okay, no need to chase."

"Then let's..."

"There are two things you need to do. First, you must capture all the bandits alive. Second, Xiao Zuoqing took advantage of the chaos to escape, and he will surely return to Tai'an City to look for his wife and children. However, he doesn't know martial arts, and with his physical strength, he may not be able to run as far as those bandits. We must bring him back before Baili Qing sees him."

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, Yun Feng and others dispersed tacitly to carry out their respective tasks.

"What about us?"

"Go back to the city first!"

"it is good!"

Chu Yao was about to walk towards Wangyan City but was stopped by Xiao Zuochen.

"Return to Tai'an City!"

"what!?"

In Tai'an City——

"Butler Mu, Butler Mu!"

Mu Dai was sitting on the emperor's imperial armchair in the southern study, making and sipping tea, when he heard the hurried calls of other young eunuchs outside the courtyard.

Mu Dai couldn't drink the freshly brewed tea because it was too hot, and now this noisy little eunuch happened to bump into him. Mu Dai was going to vent all his anger on him.

"Butler Wood!"

The young eunuch ran in from outside the courtyard and was about to speak when he heard Mu Dai glaring at him.

"Stop making so much noise and why don't you kneel down when you see me!"

Before the young eunuch could even open his mouth, he was punished by Mu Dai to kneel. Mu Dai was the chief steward, so even if his position was lower than his, he did not have to kneel before him. But the emperor was not in the palace now, and Mu Dai was the most senior person in the palace, so the young eunuch did not dare to disobey him.

Seeing the little eunuch kneeling down obediently, Mu Dai was still not satisfied, and grabbed the freshly brewed tea and threw it at him.

The hard porcelain and the hot tea made the little eunuch scream, and a big bump instantly appeared on his forehead.

"Why are you screaming? There's no blood! What's there to scream about?"

The young eunuch covered his forehead with his hands in grievance. He had something urgent to report, so how could he have offended this beast!

"So~ do you have something urgent to report~"

Mu Dai asked slowly. He was thinking about how he would punish the eunuch if his answer did not satisfy him.

When the young eunuch saw that Mu Dai acted like "I am the boss", he deliberately hesitated.

"Butler Mu~ I just...just saw..."

Mu Dai became even more annoyed when he heard him speak so hesitantly.

"How dare you! You were so anxious just now, but now you are hesitant to speak! Are you kidding me?"

"'This palace'? I haven't seen you for a few days. You seem to be so arrogant that you even dare to call yourself this palace!"

Hearing the voice of the person coming, the young eunuch lowered his head and remained silent. Mu Dai was stunned for a moment, and when he saw who was coming, he immediately stood up from his chair.

"Your Highness Prince Yun~ Why did you come back first?"

Mu Dai was not panicked. Even if His Royal Highness Prince Yun saw him sitting in the emperor's seat and heard him calling himself "this palace", what would happen? He was just saying a few words to him, so he was not afraid. However, he had agreed to send His Majesty back to the palace in the next few days, so why didn't he see the emperor, but instead saw Xiao Zuochen first?

When Xiao Zuochen heard Mu Dai ask this, he snorted coldly at him.

"You're good at changing the subject."

Mushiro smirked twice.

"Your Highness Prince Yun, what are you talking about? I have been worrying about all these things in the palace just to welcome the emperor back. Now that the emperor hasn't come back, and the prince has come back first, I am naturally worried. After all, I have to figure out whether the weather has changed or not first~"

Mu Dai's words were somewhat ambiguous, which made Xiao Zuochen feel uncomfortable. Mu Dai was thoughtful and usually spoke carefully in front of Emperor Ming Ren. Now he was so smooth-talking in front of him, which made him feel a little strange.

"My brother will have a small gathering with the Queen Mother and her wife, and will be back in the next two days."

"Queen Mother?"

Mu Dai was surprised at first, then said.

"Your Highness Prince Yun, the Emperor has not yet appointed a Queen Mother since he ascended the throne. You can't say that casually."

Xiao Zuochen snorted coldly at Mu Dai.

"I don't need you to remind me! Clean up the palace in the next two days, and don't leave your smoky things to get in the way."

After Xiao Zuochen finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. Mu Dai responded with a smile, pretending to be very respectful.

"I understand. Then, Your Highness Prince Yun, please take care."

Xiao Zuochen ignored him and didn't even look at the young eunuch kneeling on the ground. But as soon as he left, Mu Dai's expression changed.

"Just a prince, ugh! And you!"

Mu Dai walked up to the young eunuch, grabbed his ear and twisted it.

"You did it on purpose, didn't you? Because I hit you with a teacup and you're deliberately hesitating and not telling me that His Royal Highness Prince Yun is coming!"

"Well, I don't have any, really not!"

The young eunuch argued. Although it was indeed because of this that he did not tell Mu Dai the news in time, he could not admit it! Moreover, Prince Yun did not speak for him when he passed by just now, and Mu Dai sat on the throne without being punished. He felt that he had bet on the wrong person! This time Mu Dai must kill him!

"No? Fine, I believe you! Someone, come and lock him up in the Xinzheku and let him reflect on his mistakes!"

"No, butler!"

After Mu Dai finished speaking, there was no response from outside the door. He then realized that when King Yun came in just now, in order to prevent the guards outside the door from reporting the news, he must have had someone knock out the guards at the door!

Mu Dai walked to the door and saw two unconscious guards lying at the door. Mu Dai kicked them hard.

"You two pieces of trash, hurry up and get up!"

The guard was kicked awake and found himself lying on the ground. He quickly got up and apologized to Mu Dai.

"Master Mu, I don't know why I fainted. I know I was wrong. Please forgive me!"

Mu Dai was already angry, and when he saw that the two of them woke up and begged for mercy, he looked even more disappointed.

"Shut up! Drag him to Xinzheku!"

When the guards heard about Xinzheku, they knew that Mu Zongguan was really angry, and they dared not say a word, and immediately went into the room to drag the eunuch out. The poor little eunuch was dragged all the way and begged for mercy, but his begging for mercy could not be heard by others except those of the same humble status as him.

Mu Dai sat back on the armchair. A perceptive eunuch came in quietly and poured Mu Dai another cup of tea. Then he cleaned up the tea spilled on the floor, then quietly retreated and stood waiting at the door.

Mu Dai saw all this, but did not call him back. When he was about to go back to his room to rest at night, he found that the young eunuch was still guarding the door of the study.

Mu Dai was a little curious about him.

"What's your name?"

The young eunuch leaned forward and lowered his head.

"I have no name, please give me one, sir!"

After hearing this, Mu Dai couldn't help laughing. He didn't know whether this little eunuch had a name, but he looked quite smart.

"Okay! Then I'll give you a name, let's call you... Muchuan~"
