Rebirth and Revenge: The Imperial Master’s Pampering of Me is Addicting Me

Mu Fushu went to court early. As a Hanlin editor, he didn't have to go to court to see the emperor all the time. He only had to deal with a few colleagues, which was quite worry-free.

However, the news in the court could not be concealed, and soon someone hurried in and whispered curiously to their colleagues.

"Hey, you know what? The court is bustling with activity today. I heard that several of the princes are eager to push their own people to the top, and now it's a big noisy mess."

"That's not right. I heard that Lord Zhou presented His Majesty with a list of candidates. I heard that His Majesty seemed to have accepted it, but it seems that the final candidate has not yet been decided."

"Um... the news I heard seems different. I heard that Lord Zhou directly criticized several of His Highness's people, saying they were unreliable. I heard that the guards at the door heard a commotion inside."

Qingshu stood aside and listened to those people talking. He couldn't help but look up curiously. He adjusted his position subtly and listened to them talking, just wanting to eat melons.

Even though Mu Fushu was busy with work, he could notice his movements but he didn't say much. He just looked up at him and continued to work.

He is just that kind of person. Even if it is not something he is passionate about, he will do his best once he does it.

After a busy morning, Qingshu only came over lively just when he was about to go home for dinner and happily shared with him the news he had heard.

"Young Master, it's been really busy these past few days. I wonder who will get the final spot. I heard that Lord Zhou went on a killing spree in the court today and directly rejected all the candidates recommended by the princes."

He couldn't help but nod with admiration. That Lord Zhou really lived up to his reputation as a tough guy in the court. He really dared to offend people.

Even their young master couldn't openly offend the princes, otherwise he would have fallen out with Prince An during the last coming-of-age ceremony.

Ever since Mu Fushu returned to Beijing with his mother and sister, he had always insisted on going back home for meals, even though the journey back and forth was a bit tiring. Only after he sat in the carriage did he have the mood to look up and ask questions.

"Tell me, what news did you hear?"

Qingshu naturally did not hide anything from his master. He happily told him the information he had worked so hard to find out, and at the same time, he curiously sat next to his master.

"Master, who do you think will be the winner in the end of this conflict? Analyze it for yourself~"

Mu Fushu looked calm, glanced at him helplessly, and thought for a while before speaking.

"No matter who comes to power in the end, it won't be Prince An's man. Otherwise, the Zhu Kunlin incident wouldn't have happened."

Qingshu nodded in agreement, with a thoughtful look on his face, and he didn't notice that the man's eyes beside him suddenly darkened.

But is the fisherman the winner in the end? Who can say for sure what happens in the court?

Who knew that the horse was startled on the road before the carriage returned to the mansion. If the driver had not been very skilled, the carriage would have almost overturned.

Qingshu subconsciously supported his master, glanced outside with some displeasure, and lifted the curtain to inquire about the situation.

"What's going on? Now you can't even drive properly?"

The groom also felt a little aggrieved, and subconsciously looked around before turning around to report the news.

"Master, when we were walking over here just now, something seemed to fly over and hit the horse, which startled it. I wonder if there is any danger? Be careful."

"Don't worry about it. Go back home and eat first. Don't make my mother wait anxiously."

Mu Fushu frowned and lifted the curtain, looked out for a while, but didn't see anyone who looked strange around. Then he withdrew his hand, raised his chin calmly, and looked at the curtain again.

If the other party really wanted to attack him, they would not just scare the horse. This action seemed more like a test to him, but what did those people who hid their heads and showed their tails want to test him?

He hadn't had any grudges recently, and he couldn't figure out who was targeting him at this time. But since they weren't trying to kill him, he didn't care.

After hearing his order, the coachman didn't ask any more questions. He drove away in the curious gaze of the people as if nothing had happened. However, while driving, his eyes would always drift to both sides involuntarily to see who was targeting them.

Unfortunately, the carriage did not encounter any more accidents and instead arrived at his home safely.

Mu Fushu got off the carriage and skillfully found the place to eat. But when he entered, he saw only a table full of dishes and his mother waiting for him quietly.

He looked around and didn't see his sister, so he wasn't surprised and sighed.

"Ali went out again?"

Cheng Qin smiled and asked him to sit down and eat, and explained a few words with a smile.

"Didn't Princess Huining send her an invitation to the hot springs last night? I guess they had lunch at the farm. Your sister doesn't have many friends she can get along with, so I didn't stop her."

That's true. After all, it seems that Ahri hasn't played well with her before for five years. I don't know if it's because they have been apart for too long and are no longer familiar with each other, but now she has become much closer to Lu Zhiyao.

Mu Fushu nodded thoughtfully and muttered a few words in confusion.

"I just didn't expect that she would be so close to Lu Zhiyao, even taking a hot spring bath together. They've only seen each other a few times since they came back. I don't know how they ended up hanging out together."

Cheng Qin sighed with understanding, "Making friends isn't a complicated thing. If you feel right, everything will fall into place. It's a good thing for Ali to have more friends around him."

The princess's identity was indeed somewhat special. She actually did not recommend her daughter to get too close to the royal children, but since it was rare for her daughter to make friends, she did not have the heart to stop her.

"Mom, did you encounter any problems on your way home today? Like startling a horse or something?"

Mu Fushu asked his mother calmly while eating.

Cheng Qin shook his head, his face full of confusion. "No, why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

So either the other party is coming for him or it's Ahri's side...

Mu Fushu's eyebrows knitted slightly, and his tone became more urgent, "Mother, did Ali and the princess take Qiu Jin with them?"

"Doesn't Ali always take those little girls with him when he goes out? But I don't seem to see Qilan. Did something happen to her?"

Cheng Qin looked at him strangely, as if sensing something was wrong and asked back.

After thinking for a while, Mu Fushu smiled and tried to comfort his mother. "No, I just wanted to ask. I heard that there might be more than just my carriage that scared the horses on the way back, so I thought I'd ask you."

Cheng Qin didn't think much about it. The mother and son finished their meal happily. It was not until Mu Fu left the house that Cheng Qin's face darkened and he turned around to give instructions to Shu Yan.

"Go follow Ali. She should be at Princess Huining's hot spring villa now."
