"Wow, love between men and women is killing people! Wow, wow, wow"

An Yi also felt sorry for His Majesty, but Liu Dequan's crying was too annoying.

An Yi originally thought that it was not very moral for His Majesty to seize a minister's wife, but now... he actually felt that it was nothing.

The Southern Barbarians have the custom that their father's wife is inherited by his son, so in comparison, their Majesty just likes a married woman who has suffered a lot.

The more I think about it, the more it seems right.

An Yi's eyes lit up.

Yes, Your Majesty, this is not a case of the king taking away the wife of his minister.

This is to save a woman from danger.

An Yi told Liu Dequan his thoughts.

Liu Dequan stopped crying abruptly and flicked his whisk.

"Lord An, I'd like to trouble you to investigate Miss Tang's life in the general's mansion for the past five years, no matter how big or small. His Majesty has never dared to face the fact that he personally ordered the marriage of his beloved woman to his brother, so he didn't ask you to investigate. But as you said, if Miss Tang is not living well, your majesty is saving her from the pit of fire!"

The two looked at each other, their eyes shining brightly.

"Okay, I'll go right away!"

The banquet ended and Mu Liangyuan never returned.

Finally, Liu Dequan announced the end of the banquet and all the ministers returned home with their families.

Zhou Yan always felt that something was strange about this banquet, but he couldn't tell what was strange.

On the way back, the old lady was not as warm to Tang Huan as before.

If she still couldn't see what Tang Huan was thinking, then she would be a real fool.

But what she didn't expect was that during the return journey, when she got off the carriage, the old lady became close to Tang Huan again.

Tang Yu had an emotional outburst today and was very tired after acting for a while.

So he went straight back to Jiawanju.

Zhou Yan followed shamelessly.

"Yu'er, we..."

Tang Yu said coldly, "General, a cold heart is not so easy to warm up. I don't want to do it yet. Please go back to your own courtyard."

Without Mu Liangyuan around, Tang Yu was too lazy to pay attention to Zhou Yan.

Anyway, I can see that he is already somewhat moved.

Although Zhou Yan felt disappointed, he also knew that his actions over the years had chilled her heart.

The next morning.

Zhou Yan was taken to the palace by Liu Dequan early in the morning, saying that the emperor wanted him to report on his work.

He became more and more confused. Why did he feel that His Majesty was acting strangely after returning from Jiangnan this time?

Arrived at the imperial study in the palace.

After Zhou Yan paid his respects, he looked up and saw Mu Liangyuan’s haggard face. It was only one night, and the banquet was apparently going fine last night.

"Your Majesty, are you alright? Why do you look so haggard?"

Mu Liangyuan looked up at Zhou Yan with eyes full of jealousy, coldness, and a hint of disgust.

This morning he saw what An Yi presented to her, which was her life after five years of marriage, which he had never dared to investigate.

It was as if if he touched her, he would have to confirm that her misery indeed came from him, and there would be no possibility between them.

But now, he only feels heartache.

He only hated himself for being blind and misjudging the person. The person he always regarded as a good brother turned out to have such a face.

He allowed Tang Huan, an outsider, to come to the general's mansion to bully and frame his wife, and allowed his vicious mother to humiliate and beat Yu'er.

The servants in the mansion were allowed to withhold food, and even when Tang Yu first got married, she could only eat leftovers.

Even the fall into the water was planned by Tang Huan!

Later, she felt better after giving birth to Zhou Niannian. The old lady was unable to get up due to a cold, so Tang Yu got the power of housekeeper.

This makes life better.

All of these things are actually something a general can do.

Mu Liangyuan said coldly.

"nothing."

Zhou Yan felt even weirder. He always felt that the emperor looked at him with a very cold gaze, and there was a hint of...jealousy?

Thinking of this, he shook his head and laughed in his heart.

Could it be that he was tired of handling cases in Jiangnan? Why would Your Majesty be jealous of him?

Your Majesty has had a noble status since childhood, and the Emperor Retired and the Empress Dowager Retired are still alive. Your Majesty has everything and is jealous of him.

Mu Liangyuan lowered his head to review the memorials, trying hard to put away his hostility and asked casually.

"I heard that you returned to the General's Mansion the night before yesterday. This is not like you. What made you so anxious?"

As he said this, he stared at Zhou Yan's expression calmly.

I saw him lower his head and smile, with happiness and sweetness in his smile.

Mu Liangyuan gritted his teeth and almost broke the jade brush in his hand.

"In reply to your Majesty, I have figured out a lot of things in the past half month in Jiangnan. I came back this time for the lady in the mansion. We had misunderstandings before, so we missed a lot. Now I think it is not too late to make up for it."

Mu Liangyuan narrowed his eyes.

Now in his eyes, Zhou Yan is no longer a brother, but just a love rival and an enemy.

Listening to Zhou Yan's words, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

There was a vicious look in his eyes.

What does Zhou Yan mean? Is he showing off to him?
