On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Lin Zhen and Murong Wushe hurried to the palace. At the same time, in the Council Hall.

Murong Yan stood in the center of the huge hall and paced back and forth.

Everyone could see that she was in a bad mood, so neither the palace maids nor the eunuchs dared to breathe loudly. They just stood aside obediently, for fear of angering her.

Murong Yan was originally anxious today because the ministers were urging her to consummate the marriage.

Alas, I don’t know what these ministers are thinking?

What does it have to do with you whether I, an emperor, consummate my marriage or not?

You are all so energetic that I thought you were going to have your wedding night.

"Dragon sons and grandsons, I'm only 21! I have to live, why are you in such a hurry?"

Murong Yan cursed all these ministers in her heart, and then began to worry again.

Lin Zhen has already led his troops to the Lama Temple to capture Gu Nanshan.

You should know that the Lama Temple is a royal temple with a long history and far-reaching influence. It is also the spiritual pillar of the entire Daqian Buddhism.

Lin Zhen led his troops to surround Gu Nanshan openly. If he could successfully capture Gu Nanshan, it would be fine. At least he would have an excuse.

If he is not caught, the ministers will definitely have opinions, and the impeachment memorials will flood the entire council hall.

Of course Lin Zhen would not be affected by the memorial, but Murong Yan was upset!

There are so many memorials that I can’t read them all, but I have to read them too.

If something important is missed, Wei Tao and the other censors will start nagging again.

Hey, Lin Zhen, please come back soon.

I'm waiting so impatiently.

Murong Yan looked outside the palace gate eagerly.

Empty.

There is nothing else except red walls, yellow tiles and bricks and stones on the ground.

Finally, the sunlight passed over the eaves of the Golden Throne Hall and sprinkled on the Dragon Bridge. Two figures, one hunched over and the other with chest puffed out, came slowly.

Murong Yan no longer cared about the emperor's reserve and composure, and quickly walked out of the palace.

Lin Zhen and Murong Wushe both walked up the stone steps with gloomy faces.

"Lin Zhen!" she shouted anxiously.

Lin Zhen came in front of Murong Yan and bowed.

"See Your Majesty."

"Lin Zhen, have you caught Gu Nanshan?"

Lin Zhen shook his head.

Murong Wushe also knelt down on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I was incompetent and let Gu Nanshan escape. However, he is still in the capital. The prince has ordered a city-wide search. I believe he will be captured soon."

"What exactly happened? How did Gu Nanshan get connected to Zoroastrianism? And how did you know he was hiding in the Lama Temple?"

Lin Zhen told all that Gu Nanshan had done, including his collusion with Zoroastrianism, his transfer of Gu family property, and his deception of Liu Hanyang.

Then he explained what happened in the Lama temple.

When Lin Zhen spoke of Ergou with gritted teeth, Murong Yan stomped her feet in anger.

"This scumbag! How dare he aid the tyrant?" Murong Yan's chest heaved with anger. She looked at Lin Zhen and said, "You shouldn't have saved him!"

Murong Yan had no idea about the relationship between Lin Zhen and Ergou, so she said this.

Lin Zhen sighed and shook his head, not caring much.

Murong Yan, however, was still furious. She clenched her fists and said, "The Gu family is foolish enough to raise a slave like Gu Nanshan, who is so ambitious and treacherous, secretly harming the country! Humph, if I catch you, I will torture you to death!"

Actually, it's quite interesting to watch Murong Yan lose her temper.

It’s not that he’s that good-looking, but he’s wearing men’s makeup, and when he pouts in anger, the beard on his mouth twitches back and forth.

But it was clear that Lin Zhen was in no mood at the moment. He asked, "Your Majesty, what is the matter that you summoned me so urgently?"

Murong Yan also remembered the important matter and nodded.

"Well, come in with me."

Murong Yan took the lead and walked into the council hall. With a wave of her hand, all the eunuchs and palace maids went out tactfully.

Lin Zhen heard clearly that there were many voices of relief coming from the hall.

Murong Wushe wanted to follow him in, but was glared back by Murong Yan.

It seems that Murong Yan doesn't even intend to tell him about this matter.

In the magnificent council hall, there were only Lin Zhen, Murong Yan, and Huanhuan standing at the edge of the screen.

Murong Yan sat back on the dragon throne, wondering how she should approach the matter.

She was not sure whether Lin Zhen knew her real gender, and she was even less sure what would happen if Lin Zhen knew she was a girl.

After thinking about it for a long time, she still couldn't find a suitable explanation, so she turned to ask, "How is the investigation into the Zoroastrianism going?"

Lin Zhen still stood beside her, his face expressionless.

"I have basically pinpointed the Zoroastrianism headquarters, which is in Hejian County. Currently, the Jinwu Guard, Zuowu Guard, and Youwu Guard have already divided their forces into groups to encircle them. Furthermore, the civilian Zoroastrians are also under my surveillance. We are only waiting for the right moment to strike and eradicate them completely."

"Hmm." Murong Yan nodded, supporting her beautiful hair with one hand and looking at him: "With you here, I feel at ease."

This look is so ambiguous.

Lin Zhen unconsciously turned his face away, as if deliberately avoiding her sight.

However, Murong Yan just stared at him with a complicated smile on her lips.

For some reason, the more she looked at him, the more she felt that Lin Zhen was handsome and had a pleasant smell all over him.

But what’s the use of looking good?

She never dared to raise the question in her mind.

However, if the marriage is not consummated, all officials will become suspicious and it will be difficult to resolve the matter.

Just when Lin Zhen was deliberately avoiding Murong Yan's gaze, Huanhuan glanced at the two of them sideways, then took advantage of their inattention to go around the screen and came to the back door of the hall.

She pushed open the door and waved her hand to call a young eunuch over.

The young eunuch hurried over: "Sister Huanhuan."

"Well, go tell Prime Minister Gu quickly that Lin Zhen has entered the palace again and is talking to His Majesty."

"Yes."

"Hey! Wait, remember, it was Lin Zhen who spoke to His Majesty alone, asking Prime Minister Gu to come up with a solution quickly, and it would be best if he could bring Court Judge Gu with him to the palace."

"Yes."

The young eunuch walked away immediately.

Huanhuan closed the palace door, looked towards the front hall, and patted her chest which was pounding like a deer.

"Huh...Beichen, you must come!"

"I haven't seen you for a long time."

......

Lin Zhen and Murong Yan were both in the front hall, and neither of them noticed Huanhuan's little movements.

Moreover, neither of them could have imagined that Huanhuan would become a spy in the palace and tip off the Gu family.

But just because they didn't notice it doesn't mean others didn't notice it either.

Murong Wushe was standing outside sucking his teeth because he was not allowed to enter the hall.

He licked the chopped leeks he had eaten in the morning off his big yellow teeth and spat them out far away.

Suddenly, a young eunuch walked out of the hall in a hurry and started shouting.

"stop!"

The young eunuch was so frightened that he trembled all over and stopped in his tracks.

Murong Wushe didn't think much about it, he was just bored, so he walked over and asked.

"What are you doing sneaking around?"
