You Meng Yin
Chapter 1 Enter the Zhuzhi Hall from the main entrance.
Do you want to leave Mengnv Temple? "
"Remember," said the emperor, "and then?"
"At that time, we thought she was a child at heart and acted willfully." Ye Chengqi said, "After that, she didn't do anything else, and it seems that there is only one explanation. What does the emperor think?"
"Then what do you mean, this time it's just her willful act again?" the emperor said.
"Not necessarily." Ye Chengqi said, "Brother Emperor, please allow me to be my younger brother again, and asked Master Xiao Meng."
The emperor nodded.
Ye Chengqi stood up straight and raised his voice: "Xiao Mengshi, I still want to ask, are you sure that there are all the items in Menghuang's bedroom, and there are many of them that Menghuang used in the past?"
Xiao Hongxiu's heart shook.
"Yes." She said immediately, "Otherwise, how could Hongxiu think that Menghuang was just wandering around in Mengnv Temple, and she didn't report it to His Majesty until now..."
Ye Chengqi looked confused.
"In this case..." he said to the emperor, "it doesn't seem like Menghuang left by himself, the third possibility that I guessed..."
"You bullshit!"
Ye Hongxuan's voice interrupted him.
Everyone looked at Ye Hongxuan in surprise, only to find that he was pointing at Xiao Mengshi.Xiao Mengshi was also reprimanded by this "nonsense".
"Father! Please forgive my son's crime!" He knelt down and kowtowed.
The emperor's voice was chilling.
"What's your fault?" he asked.
"I first heard about Menghuang's disappearance, so I was worried and panicked, so I went to her bedroom!" Ye Hongxuan said, "Then, I found that not only the clothes she wore in Zhuzhi Hall were missing, but also my son. The bamboo flute that I gave her is also gone. That bamboo flute is very meaningful, she loves it very much, and never leaves her body..."
Everyone tried their best to ignore the meaning of the words "extraordinary meaning", but the word "token of love" still kept popping up in everyone's mind.This Prince Rui is really courageous, dare to say such words...
The emperor squinted.
"Then what do you mean, Menghuang was not taken away by someone, but left by herself?" He said.
"My son doesn't know!" Ye Hongxuan said, "I also ask my father to send someone to find Menghuang! As for why Xiao Mengshi deliberately concealed it, I also ask my father to investigate clearly!"
"Your Majesty!" Xiao Hongxiu panicked, "What His Highness Prince Rui said is not conspicuous, maybe, maybe it's because the people below didn't investigate carefully, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
The emperor snorted coldly, gasped for breath, and looked at Ye Chengqi.
"What do you think?" he said.
Ye Chengqi narrowed his eyes and pondered for a while.
"If that's the case, that's probably the third possibility that my younger brother conjectured." He said.
"What is it?" said the Emperor.
"I also ask Brother Huang to send all these irrelevant people away." Ye Chengqi said, "Of course, Prince Rui and Xiao Mengshi will still stay."
72 The most suitable candidate
In Qiankun Hall, only the emperor, Ye Chengqi, Ye Hongxuan, and Xiao Hongxiu were left.
"Mo Yan would like to ask Xiao Mengshi first."
Ye Chengqi walked up to Xiao Hongxiu's side, softened his tone, and changed his name.
"The Mengnv Temple has existed for hundreds of years, and it is enshrined by all the people. It is beautiful. Why is there only a Menghuang outside the Mengnv Temple?" He said.
"Hongxiu, Hongxiu, I don't know." Xiao Hongxiu's complexion was still a little pale, and his expression was uneasy.
"Xiaju, what do you think?"
Ye Chengqi looked at Ye Hongxuan with a smile, and at this moment, they were the only ones who could see the expressions on each other's faces.
Ye Hongxuan frowned.
This old fox!
Why do you have to call yourself Biaozi?
"Of course it is because of Menghuang's outstanding talent and extraordinary intelligence. There are countless dream girls throughout the ages and no one can hold a candle to him!" Ye Hongxuan said, "And God is grateful for my father's literary and martial arts skills, and his diligence in the court. Menghuang is specially descended to give me the emperor's longevity..."
"Okay, okay, there's no need to say nice words."
The emperor interrupted him and looked at Ye Chengqi.
"Mo Yan, what exactly do you want to say?" He asked.
"My brother is just thinking about it." Ye Chengqi said, "It is impossible to test the goddess of dreams in the past. Apart from my Menghuang, the most outstanding dreamer in the past and present is none other than the Diaoying Empress 300 years ago. My brother heard that, The Diaoying Empress also practiced hermitage in the wild, rather than being enshrined in a temple. May I ask Master Xiao Meng, is that so?"
The emperor immediately looked at Xiao Hongxiu.
"...Yes." Xiao Hongxiu said anxiously.
"So, you should already understand the third possibility, Brother Huang." Ye Chengqi said.
"You mean, Menghuang returned to the wild to practice dream art."
The emperor pondered.
"It's no wonder that during the banquet, she once told me that I would give her time to watch the heavens with her..."
"That's the case, Menghuang has always acted rashly, and he can't accept the pain of parting, so he didn't bid farewell to the emperor face to face." Ye Chengqi said, "It's just...Xiao Mengshi, can your people check carefully? Menghuang In the Huang room, is there not a single word left in it?"
"Your Majesty, Your Highness, there is really no..." Xiao Hongxiu said.
"Impossible!" Ye Hongxuan said suddenly, "It's impossible for her to leave without saying goodbye, it's impossible for her to leave so easily! You must be hiding it!"
"His Royal Highness Prince Rui, please calm down." Ye Chengqi said, "However, the former possibility cannot be ruled out. Menghuang was robbed by someone with ulterior motives."
The emperor was stunned.
"You two, you can leave now." He pointed to Ye Hongxuan and Xiao Hongxiu.
After the two retreated, he said to Ye Chengqi: "Then, in your opinion, how should this matter go?"
"No matter what the reason for Menghuang to leave, I think that if the emperor wants to find Menghuang, it is only suitable to make an unannounced visit." Ye Chengqi said.
The emperor wanted to ask why, but after careful consideration, it was indeed the truth.
The reason why we are passive right now is because the enemy is dark and we are clear.
If the court's actions are also carried out in the dark, it will naturally confuse the enemy.
And if Menghuang left by herself, making unannounced visits to welcome her back would not only give her enough face, but also save the emperor's own face.Otherwise, they would make a scene with great fanfare and say that it was Menghuang who fled privately because he didn't want to grant him immortality as the emperor, then both sides would look bad.
"It's better for you to think carefully." The emperor said, "Then how about I leave it to you to make an unannounced visit to welcome Menghuang back?"
He said, looking at Ye Chengqi with burning eyes.
Ye Chengqi suddenly knelt down.
"Brother Emperor, forgive me!" He said, "The Northwest is restless right now, there is a steady stream of official documents from the army every day, I am afraid that I have no time to take care of him, maybe I will ask Brother Emperor to resign at any time and hurry back to Pingliang! "
The light in the emperor's eyes softened.
"A few days ago, I asked you to find out where Menghuang came from, who was his teacher, etc. How did you find out?" he said.
Ye Chengqi pursed his lips in fear and did not dare to answer.
"That's all." The emperor said, "I know you are busy, so you can concentrate on dealing with military affairs. I will personally order someone to investigate this matter."
"Thank you, Brother Huang, for your compassion!" Ye Chengqi said gratefully.
"Then who do you think should be in charge of welcoming Menghuang back?" said the emperor.
"Actually, Hongxuan is the most suitable candidate." Ye Chengqi said, "He is the prince, and if he goes, it will completely show that the emperor treats this matter as a family matter. What's more, he and Menghuang are the most familiar……"
"Him?" The emperor glanced at Ye Chengqi and waved his hand, "Then what if he guards himself and steals?"
"Brother Huang is very worried." Ye Chengqi said, "But apart from him, who else can handle the family affairs for Brother Huang and also has a certain understanding of Menghuang?"
The emperor frowned and pondered, then suddenly smiled.
"In this world, the people who are most familiar with you are not only your friends, but also... enemies." He said.
Ye Chengqi was startled.
"Brother Huang means... Jiahui?" He said.
The emperor laughed.
"What I mean is not that Changning Palace is against Menghuang because of Jiahui." He said, "But since Jiahui had many conflicts with Menghuang in the past, her father and brother should also have a certain understanding of Menghuang. What's more, Su Huaqing possesses the talent of the world and the latitude and the latitude of the earth, and he can plan strategies in a square inch. His son Su Yushi is also capable of writing and martial arts. Can't welcome Menghuang back?"
The more the emperor thought about it, the more he felt that these two people were well chosen, and he couldn't help laughing.
"Besides, Su Huaqing is the queen's elder brother and my brother-in-law. Isn't it more appropriate to let him handle the family affairs on my behalf?" The emperor said, "Mo Yan, what do you think?"
Ye Chengqi's expression was reserved, but there was no joy on his face.
"Brother Huang is wise." He said.
The emperor frowned.
"Huh? Looking at you, it doesn't look like you really think I'm wise?" He said, "If you feel something is wrong, you might as well speak up."
"Yes." After Ye Chengqi hesitated for a while, Fang said, "Since Jiahui and Menghuang had such an unpleasant relationship, I'm afraid there is already a rift between Prince Changning and his son and Menghuang. Along the way..."
The emperor laughed.
"Mo Yan, you've been in the military for a long time and don't understand the affairs of Jinjue City." He said, "Then Su Yushi is humble and self-disciplined. ..."
The emperor didn't continue to say the following words, but Ye Chengqi already understood.
Because there was a rift between them, it was impossible for Su Mu to be "rebelled" by Menghuang, and the emperor didn't have to worry about what happened to Ye Hongxuan, it also happened to Su Mu.
"In this way, Prince Changning and his son will surely live up to the entrustment of the emperor and welcome back Menghuang as soon as possible." Ye Chengqi leaned over and bowed, "I will congratulate the emperor here first. I was too worried earlier."
"Get up." The emperor said, "Since you are busy, go on your own. Come, Su Huaqing, king of Xuan Changning, has come to see me in the palace."
Ye Chengqi withdrew with a smile, but paced slowly at the gate of the Forbidden Palace.
When Su Huaqing walked quickly into the palace city to face the saint, his expression really relaxed.
73 Green Luan with Mountains
Unlike the thousands of miles of ice in the north, the vast mountains in the southwest of Dazhen are now full of lush greenery.
A dusty blue-faced carriage, along the winding mountain road, slowly approached the Peach Blossom Town surrounded by mountains.
Although the carriage was dirty, the young man who was sitting on the shaft and driving the carriage had bright eyes and a handsome appearance. He didn't look like an ordinary driver at all.And the girl who got off the carriage also had picturesque eyebrows, lively and lovely, and a little flower pearl between her brows perfectly adorned her face.
Therefore, when the enthusiastic and honest town residents saw them, not only did they not feel vigilant, but they also felt close and friendly.
After resting overnight at the inn in the town, the two young men abandoned their carriages and headed for Qingluan Mountain in light clothes.
Qingluan Mountain, in the eyes of the residents of Peach Blossom Town, is an incomparably sacred mountain.
Because there were more than one woodcutters who saw gods haunting the mountains.
Because of the distance, it is difficult to tell whether it is a man or a woman at a glance among the green mountains, but the only thing that is certain is that the fairy's gestures and gestures are all of peerless beauty.Or raise a glass to invite the moonflower to sleep, or dance with the wind in the mountains, sometimes it seems that there is more than one fairy.
It is said that there is also a herbal picker who fell from the cliff and was rescued by a fairy. When he woke up from a coma, the wounds on his body had been bandaged and treated, and there was still the jasmine plant that he wanted to pick before he fell. Yinghua.
Although most people just laughed when they heard it, thinking that the herb picker wanted to raise the price of that rare purple flower with nine stamens.
But everyone still firmly believes that there are gods haunting Ziluo Peak.Although in the past two years, I gradually didn't hear anyone talking about it, and I saw those immortals again.
Ziluofeng.
What Zhu Rong and Shu Yang are currently climbing is this inaccessible first peak of Qingluan.
The mountain is high and steep, and most of the places are almost vertical cliffs, and there is no way to get off.
Shu Yang is like the most nimble and vigorous ape in the world, holding Zhu Rong with one hand and the vines hanging from the mountain with the other, stepping between his feet, jumping nimbly on the cliff.When it was even more difficult, he directly carried Zhu Rong on his back, but the speed of his feet was not slow.
It wasn't until the open place in the middle of the mountain that Zhu Rong let out a long breath and was able to walk on his own.
The plants, trees, houses, and houses that I saw in my eyes are all old scenes, but it is a pity that the closed tent door will never open suddenly again, and there will never be a man and a woman walking out from behind the door, talking to me and Shu. Yang greeted him with a smile.
Zhu Rong didn't rush into the bamboo house, but turned around and looked at the road.
After all, it is still winter, and the verdant mountains are chilling with greenery.A mist blows from nowhere, wrapping the winter mountains in layers of white gauze, and the Peach Blossom Town at the foot of the mountain is also covered, as if cutting off the world of mortals and the world.
"Shu Yang." Zhu Rong said, "After worshiping father and mother, we'd better go back to live in the town."
Shu Yang didn't express any doubts, let alone objected, but just nodded his head very quietly.
Zhu Rong smiled.
"Aren't you afraid that we will be caught?" She said, "Although Taohua Town is located in a remote area and isolated from the world, it is not really isolated after all."
Shu Yang shook his head.
Zhu Rong laughed.
"That's right." She said, "Even if we are found, then there is still time for us to run away."
Shu Yang also laughed, and he made a gesture.
Zhu Rong thought for a while and said: "Open a snack bar, and always do something that you have never done before. This kind of life is interesting."
Shu Yang nodded in agreement.
Zhu Rong raised his steps, looked up at the large bamboo forest all around, and then opened the door to enter the bamboo house.
As soon as she entered the room, she said in surprise: "Uncle Mo Xian has indeed been here, this place is different from when we left."
Shu Yang didn't do anything extra, just went to fetch water from the mountain stream outside the house with ease, and then went into the bamboo house used as a study to grind ink sticks for Zhu Rong.
Zhu Rong has already spread out the paper.
"Uncle Mo Xian will come to Ziluo Peak every year." She said, "Then I will leave the news of Xu Jingxing's serious illness and comatose here. When he sees it, he will naturally go to Jin Jue to save his apprentice."
---
He rode fast horses across the long street and stopped in front of Changning Palace.
Su Mu dismounted lightly and walked straight into Changning Wang Su Huaqing's study.
"Is there any news yet?"
Su Huaqing looked up and saw the person coming, put down the pen and ink in his hand, and asked questions slowly.
"It is certain that they have left Jin Jue." Su Mu said, "But all the clues and traces along the way have been deliberately covered up."
"Oh?" Su Huaqing said, "Then who do you suspect?"
"Of course they are the ones who don't want her to go back to Jin Jue and Mengnv Temple. It may be Prince Rui, it may be Duan Wang, it may be Xiao Hongxiu, or other people in Mengnv Temple. There are still forces hiding in the dark." Su Mu said, "It may even be Uncle Xu, or... Father, you."
Su Huaqing raised his eyebrows.
"I can understand the other people you mentioned," he said, "but why would I do this?"
"Because you said that she is a girl from our own family." Su Mu said.
Su Huaqing was silent.
Su Mu said again: "But her surname is not Su, the one surnamed Su is her mother. Her mother is the sister of your first mother and the twin sister of the current queen. Am I right, father? "
Su Huaqing raised his eyebrows.
"You guessed it," he said.
"I should have guessed it a long time ago." Su Mu said, "My father didn't recognize Zhuzhifeng back then, just to protect her, and you received such special treatment, and you have such a talent for dreaming and unparalleled medical skills. Moreover, she still values Jing Xing so much that it is her duty to rescue him. Who is she, the answer has long been ready."
Su Huaqing sighed.
"It's all your sister's fault, and it's also the negligence of you and my father and son." He said, "That's why things have come down to what they are today."
"Then why did she leave suddenly?" Su Mu said, "Because His Majesty has already suspected her identity, does she feel that she will soon be unable to hide it?"
Su Huaqing shook his head.
"I don't know," he said.
Both father and son were silent for a while.
"Go, go find her, if you find her, don't come back." Su Huaqing said suddenly.
Su Mu was stunned.
"Why, you don't want to go?" Su Huaqing said.
Su Mu struggled in his heart for a moment, and finally said: "I want to, of course I want to. But..."
"If you want to, then go. There are so many buts." Su Huaqing interrupted him, "If you feel indebted because of your sister, you should stay by her side and protect her at this time, just take care of your father good her."
"Father, do you know where she is?" Su Mu said.
Su Huaqing nodded.
"Should have known," he said.
"But if I leave, what will you do, Father? If His Majesty blames you, what will happen to Changning Palace?" Su Mu said.
"Where are you, where is the blood of our family." Su Huaqing said, "Don't worry about me, and don't worry about the Changning Palace. Could it be possible that this big family business can still trap you? Don't I have the ability to protect your father? This district mayor Ning Wangfu?"
Su Mu pursed his lips and looked at Su Huaqing, his eyes were bright as if they were shining with water, but his heart was swollen and hot.
"Go." Su Huaqing said, "I will send someone to hunt you down."
Su Mu understood what he meant.
"But you have to be careful, there may be nothing wrong in Jinjue City. When you leave Jinjue, you will definitely not only be a group of people for your father." Su Huaqing said, "Of course, at this time, the situation is getting worse and worse. Chaos, the better."
Su Mu nodded.
"The Emperor has sent people to keep a close eye on Prince Rui's Mansion and Mengnv Temple." He said, "But Prince Rui will naturally have the ability to act secretly."
"You don't have to worry about his people." Su Huaqing said, "They just want to cause you some trouble and prevent you from finding Rongrong. What you need to be careful of is those who will really kill you. These people, It's because I absolutely don't want to see Menghuang return to Jin Jue, nor do I want to see Menghuang alive in this world."
"But the son still can't figure it out." Su Mu said, "whether it is His Majesty or the father, why can we be sure from the beginning that she left Mengnv Temple by herself, not by someone?"
"Well, just look at how Prince Rui behaves today. If he doesn't know where Menghuang is going, how can he still sit in Jinjue City?" Su Huaqing said, "Prince Rui is still too young after all, and also underestimated the wisdom of our Majesty. The emperor just has no evidence, and he doesn't want to hurt the peace of father and son, so he never made things difficult for him."
"...So that's the case." Su Mu said, "Everything has been predicted by His Majesty."
"Of course there are things he didn't expect." Su Huaqing said, "That's you and me, and Prince Duan."
Su Mu understood.
"Look, father, where is she... at this time?" He asked.
Su Huaqing's eyes revealed some depth, and his voice seemed to be a sigh from 20 years ago.
"At the junction of Zhenqi and Qi, there is a mountain called Qingluan. If you can't find it there, then you don't even know where to look for it as a father." He said.
74 The Power of the Mountain
"Xuan'er, you can't go!"
In the middle palace, the empress persuaded Ye Hongxuan.
"Menghuang escaped, you have something to do with this matter! Your father ordered you to stay in Jinjue City, if you disobey, do you know what the consequences will be?"
"My son knows!" Ye Hongxuan said, "So I implore the queen mother to let my father relieve my son's foot restraint! My son is willing to welcome Menghuang back for my father!"
"Where are you going to welcome Menghuang back?" Queen Su said, "The sky is high and the land is vast, do you know where to go to find her? If you don't say one, two, three, how will your father be?" Agree to you? He will only think that you are taking the opportunity to leave Jin Jue and go to sleep and fly with that girl!"
Ye Hongxuan laughed, with a miserable expression.
"If we can stay and fly together with her, what's so bad about it? It's a pity...it's a pity!" He clenched his fists as he spoke.
"How dare you even say such a thing, are you not afraid that your father will know?" Empress Su asked urgently.
"So what if Father knows?" Ye Hongxuan said, "Apart from her, what else in the world can threaten me?"
"Even if I use this country as a threat, can't I threaten you?"
The emperor shouted suddenly, shocking everyone in the palace.
Ye Hongxuan turned around trembling, and when he faced the emperor, his face was already full of tears.
For things like tears, the first time has happened, the second time will be much easier.
Including Empress Su, all the people in the hall knelt down to the emperor, but Ye Hongxuan still stood.
"Father, you can't threaten me." He said, "Even this country can't threaten me. Because without her, this country is meaningless to me."
"evil creature!"
The emperor slapped him across the face, and Ye Hongxuan was beaten back three steps.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
Empress Su hurriedly walked a few steps on her knees, grabbed the hem of the emperor's dragon robe, and blocked Ye Hongxuan behind her.
The servants in the palace were trembling and crawling on the ground, wishing they could bury their heads in the ground.
The emperor glared at Ye Hongxuan.
"To this day, you really are still coveting Menghuang!" He shouted.
"Father, forgive me!" Ye Hongxuan knelt down and cried, "It's just a thing of love. It starts from the heart, but it doesn't stop! I really have no choice! Please allow me to go out and find her back Come! Erchen didn't dare to do what he thought, but just wanted to confirm her safety with his own eyes..."
The emperor looked at him, and then looked down at the queen, his anger subsided slightly.
"Everyone gets up, everyone gets up." He said, "My prince and queen are crying and crying one by one, what do they look like?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Empress Su hurriedly wiped her tears and stood up, and another servant stepped forward to help Ye Hongxuan.
The emperor waved his hand to order a group of people to retreat, leaving only Ye Hongxuan and the queen in the palace.
"Xuan'er, I will ask you again in front of your mother today." He said, "If I exchange the position of prince with you, I will exchange you for not taking half a step of Jin Jue within three years. Are you willing to exchange?" ?”
Empress Su looked at Ye Hongxuan with tears in her eyes, for fear that he would say "no".
"No." Ye Hongxuan said.
Empress Su almost fainted.
"Mother!" Ye Hongxuan quickly supported her.
"Xuan'er, you, you..." Empress Su was weeping, but she could only look at Ye Hongxuan shaking her head, speechless.
The emperor nodded.
"Then you go." He said, "From now on, the crown prince has nothing to do with you."
"Thank you father for your accomplishment."
As Ye Hongxuan said, he knelt down and kowtowed three times, Fang got up and strode towards the outside of the hall, full of impatience.
The emperor's gaze on his back was exceptionally gentle.He turned his gaze back to the weeping queen.
"Don't cry, Hua Xin," he said.
Empress Su replied yes, but the tears welled up even more fiercely.She clearly knew that because of her son's light "no" just now, both she and him had lost something.
The emperor laughed.
"But because of what I just said, Li Xuan'er will no longer be sad for the prince?" He asked softly.
"The concubine dare not." Empress Su cried.
The emperor laughed.
"You are short-sighted," he said.
"A concubine who is a concubine and a woman in the palace, what great insight can she have?" Empress Su said, "Of course it can't compare to Your Majesty's majesty."
"Nonsense!" The emperor said with a straight face on purpose, "You are my empress, my mother honors the world, and the empress who governs the six palaces for me, are you an ordinary woman in the palace?"
Empress Su wept and said nothing.
"When I find Menghuang, you and I will share eternal life as husband and wife, and we are tired of being the empress." The emperor said, "The position of empress will naturally be passed on to others."
"Your Majesty's meaning..." The queen raised her head with tears in her eyes.
"The crown prince is the crown prince of a country." The emperor said, "If I can live forever, what other crown prince does our Dazhen Empire need?"
Empress Su immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
"The concubine doesn't know His Majesty's painstaking efforts, so I ask His Majesty to forgive me!" she said.
"Okay, okay, I understand your loving mother's heart and worrying about your son. But that is also my son."
The emperor lifted her up as he spoke, but gradually frowned and thought deeply.
"Xuan'er is a temperamental person. He can throw away the throne for that girl. Naturally, it is impossible for him to take her away that day, otherwise, he would have left with her long ago." He said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your insight." Empress Su wiped her tears.
But the emperor didn't seem to hear her words, as if what he just said was not meant for her.
"It's just that if it wasn't Xuan'er, who could it be?" The emperor pondered, "Could it be that she really has the ability to leave by herself, and she also covered up all her whereabouts?"
"Come here, tell me that Su Huaqing has entered the palace." The emperor suddenly shouted loudly.
Before Su Huaqing arrived, the servant who was in charge of the two ends ran in first.
"Your Majesty, something has happened outside," he said.
"What happened?" asked the emperor, frowning.
"Yesterday morning, Prince Changning brought people to the vicinity of Chenliu, but he didn't expect to encounter an ambush in the mountains..."
"What's the result?" The emperor's expression changed suddenly.
"...The son and his party suffered heavy casualties, and the son himself fell off the cliff and lost his whereabouts."
"When it rains..."
Empress Su had just recovered from her son's blow, when she heard the news of her nephew's death, she was struck by a thunderbolt, her eyes darkened and she almost fainted.If it weren't for the support of the two maids, she would have fallen to the ground.
The emperor also shook his body twice.
"Look! I want to meet someone... In short, I must find him! Let Su Huaqing not have to go to the palace, I will go out to see him!" He said, "I will find out who it is The assassin I sent, I want to destroy his nine clans! Also, let Ye Moyan also go to Changning Palace!"
---
Changning Palace.
Su Huaqing seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. Faced with the emperor's words of self-reproach and comfort, he only said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about my humble minister. It is a pity that my father and son are incompetent and couldn't do it. The matter entrusted by His Majesty, Xiao Xiao can take advantage of it."
"Don't worry." The emperor thought for a while, and he could only comfort him in this way, "When it rains, he, auspicious people have their own appearance."
"With the protection of the emperor's brother, the son will be able to save himself from danger." Ye Chengqi said.
The emperor nodded.
"The two of you, one civil and one military, are both my pillars and my right arm." He said, "In your opinion, who has been secretly obstructing Menghuang's court?"
75 who is who
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being unable to answer this question." Su Huaqing said.
"Why is Maolin so assertive?" the emperor said, "With your wisdom, how can there be any doubts in this world that can confuse you?"
Su Huaqing smiled wryly.
The emperor also felt a little gaffe, and his face showed embarrassment.
The man in front of him had just received bad news about his parent and child.
As a father, the emperor put himself in the shoes of the emperor. Even if something happened to his least favorite son, and others praised him for his wisdom, he might wish to kill that person, not just a wry smile.
"Mo Yan, what do you think?" The emperor looked at Ye Chengqi.
Ye Chengqi pondered for a while, then said: "My brother thinks that brother-in-law said 'I can't answer', but in fact he has already answered Brother Huang."
"How do you say it?" said the emperor.
"Probably there are too many people who don't want Menghuang to return to court. Therefore, even with the wisdom of my brother-in-law, I can't figure it out. Who exactly did it?"
Ye Chengqi looked at Su Huaqing as he spoke.
Su Huaqing said: "That's exactly what I mean."
"Absurd!" The emperor scolded angrily, "Menghuang's status is above all sentient beings, and only below me, how dare those people not want her to return!"
Ye Chengqi and Su Huaqing hurriedly knelt down.
"Brother, forgive me."
"Your Majesty forgive me."
they said.
"Hey, get up, I didn't mention you."
The emperor ordered the two of them to get up.
In fact, with one word, the emperor himself was like a mirror in his heart.
I'm afraid it's because Menghuang's status is too respected that he has become a thorn in the side, a thorn in the flesh, and a serious worry for many people.
The Mengnv Temple has existed for hundreds of years. Because of its special status, it can influence the key decisions of the rulers of the past dynasties. Many dignitaries chose to send Mengnv to them, so that women from their respective ethnic groups entered the core influential class.
In the past, the method used by dream girls to choose, although it is said that they only need to pass the double assessment of women's studies and dream test stones, but neither the women's studies nor the dream test stones are easily accessible to ordinary women.The existence of the dream card is a natural moat between officials and ordinary people.
Occasionally someone like Xiao Hongxiu has no prominent background, but by virtue of her outstanding dream skills, she becomes the master of a temple.After many years of management and good at dancing, he has already had a lot of entanglements with various forces.
Even though the emperor had sent someone to keep a close eye on Mengnv Temple, if she wanted to take action, she would be helpless.
Assuming that the entire Jin Jue is a huge net with Mengnv Temple as the center, how many officials and noble families and powerful families can not be caught in the net.As the years go by, I have long been in you, and you in me, and they are intertwined, and everything is damaged, and there is no way to shake it easily.
"It's no wonder why, as Mo Yan said that day, why only this Menghuang has been born for hundreds of years, and he is still in the wild and not in the court. I think that since the founding of my country, Dazhen, it has been handed down to me through sixteen generations of emperors, so that the dream girl The people in the temple live too comfortably. If you don’t practice dream art but study power art, what kind of dream are you building? What kind of longevity and heaven are you looking for? And Menghuang..." The emperor sighed, "I was negligent. To put a girl like her in such a difficult situation."
Ye Chengqi's face suddenly changed.
The emperor saw that his description was different, and asked, "What's the matter, Mo Yan?"
"Your brother deserves to die." Ye Chengqi knelt down again, "Your brother should have noticed it long ago, but he didn't think about the stakes, and he didn't report it to Brother Huang in time."
"What do you mean by that?" asked the emperor.
"When my younger brother built a temple for Menghuang in the past, she was extremely worried about the safety arrangements outside her bedroom. My younger brother only thought that she was a girl with a heart and felt uneasy about strange places." Ye Chengqi said, "It seems that now , it should be that from the very beginning, she knew what kind of danger she was facing."
"If that's the case, could it be that Menghuang fled because she sensed that someone was doing her a disservice and couldn't ask His Majesty for help?" Su Huaqing said.
The emperor's complexion changed several times, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable he became.
This is the only way to explain why Menghuang left without saying goodbye, and Prince Rui, who had always been in close contact with her, didn't know about it, and was so anxious that he was willing to give up the emperor's position and go out to find her.
"Silence!" The emperor said abruptly, "I want you to find Menghuang for me personally! I don't believe that there is anyone in Dazhen who has the ability to hurt you! If anyone dares to stop Menghuang from returning to court, he will It's blocking my way of longevity and heaven, and I'm accomplices in treason, so I'll kill you on the spot! I'm going to kill their nine clans again!"
"Your brother takes orders." Ye Chengqi kowtowed on his knees, "When I return to the manor and finish explaining the military matters, I will set off immediately."
"Hold on."
The emperor said, and fell silent again.
"The war in Beili really made me feel uneasy." He said, "In this way, if you find Menghuang, you don't have to rush to take her back to the imperial capital, but take her to the army for strict protection. I can just part ways with you. To do things, take this opportunity to thoroughly investigate. How many people are still in Jinjue City, looking forward to the death of my Menghuang. The old tree in Mengnv Temple has somehow become a cash cow for some people. Soil, moved the ground."
"My brother obeys the order."
Ye Chengqi kowtowed again.So even he didn't see the cold light that flashed in Su Huaqing's eyes.
"Mo Yan, I only believe in you. In Zhen Kingdom, you are the only one who can do this for me." The emperor pressed Ye Chengqi's shoulder and said solemnly.
"Your brother will not disgrace his fate." Ye Chengqi said.
"You also need to pay attention to your own safety." The emperor said, "Although you are good at martial arts, you still need to be more careful. After you find Menghuang, protect her for me."
"Yes."
"Mao Lin, you should have a good rest." The emperor said to Su Huaqing again, "I will order someone to find out about the rainy matter as soon as possible, and give you an explanation."
Su Huaqing nodded gratefully.
When he and Ye Chengqi broke up outside Changning Palace, the emperor did not drive back to the palace immediately.
He stood beside the guard of honor for a while, and an inconspicuous gray-brown figure quietly landed beside him.
"Let me keep an eye on Mo Yan." The emperor said, "Every move he makes must be reported to me."
The man was slightly surprised.
"Wasn't Prince Duan surrounded by Jing Shen and Jing Zhan?" He said.
"Depth of field? Jing Zhan? Then do you still want to talk about Jingxiang and Jingze?"
The emperor sneered and glanced at the man.
"They are no longer yours, let alone mys, but... the silent ones." He said.
---
When half of the people in the capital camp were around Chen Liu, busy searching for Prince Changning's son, he naturally didn't really fall off the cliff and die.
Although it was unexpected that the gang of men in black attacked fiercely, fortunately, his father had reminded him first that he had finally escaped from his shell.
Then he rode his horse and galloped day and night, until he crossed the Cangjiang River, and he was sure that no one would recognize him again. Only then did one of his nerves relax a little, and it didn't really break down.
But his speed still did not dare to slow down a bit.
Because he was afraid that he would be late, even if the girl had really been there, she had already left.
And when Prince Changning rushed to Yunzhou day and night, another unfortunate thing happened to him.
76 I drive
Out of the house, the purse was dropped.It's embarrassing for this to happen to anyone.
What's more, the person who happened to this matter was the prince of Changning who was always innocent, reserved and noble, hugged before going out, and admired by thousands of girls.
In addition, he was afraid of revealing his identity, so Su Mu didn't think about what the pawn shop was at all, just gritted his teeth, and rode alone for nearly a thousand miles, and arrived at Peach Blossom Town among the mountains in the evening two days later.
At this time, the horse under his crotch was already foaming at the mouth from exhaustion, kicked its hind legs twice and struggled away.
Su Mu didn't enter the town immediately, he squatted down beside the small stream outside the town by the lights of the town.After drinking a few sips of cold water, I tied up the somewhat messy long hair with a hairpin, and finally cleaned my hands and face very carefully.
When he stood up again after doing all this, his legs were a little weak. After all, he hadn't slept for two days and nights, and he hadn't eaten anything.
This is the only small town within the range of Qingluan Mountain, and it is very close to the Ziluo Peak that my father mentioned.
Along the way, he had already considered how to ask the townspeople if Zhu Rong had been here after arriving here.And after seeing her, how should he explain his appearance to her.
But he had calculated everything, and he never thought that he would lose his money bag halfway.
Even though he had more important things on his mind at this time, he still couldn't help but be attracted by the seductive fragrance wafting from the small house by the road.
A small flag was picked out from the eaves, and the word "Mian" was written on it.
It turned out that this is a noodle shop.
Just by smelling the noodles, one can conclude that the noodles they sell must be delicious.
Then Su Mu couldn't move anymore.
Prince Changning's son just stood outside the Pengmen like this, neither moving forward nor leaving.
He didn't have any money to go in and ask for some food; he couldn't bear to leave like this, and he really couldn't move anymore.
The small wooden door next to the flag opened without warning at this moment.
With the warm fire light flowing from the room, Su Mu felt that his world was also lit up in an instant.
He saw a girl who was as agile and beautiful as a fairy.
The flower tin on the girl's forehead is facing away from the firelight, but it still reflects a little bit of starlight, exuding a twinkle of silver light.This light is like a star, reflected in the lake between her palms.
With a basin of water in her hand, Zhu Rong looked at Su Mu in great surprise.
But compared to how he appeared in this small town out of thin air, she was more surprised——
"Have you been robbed?" she asked.
Su Mu was taken aback, a little embarrassed.
"I... don't look good
"Remember," said the emperor, "and then?"
"At that time, we thought she was a child at heart and acted willfully." Ye Chengqi said, "After that, she didn't do anything else, and it seems that there is only one explanation. What does the emperor think?"
"Then what do you mean, this time it's just her willful act again?" the emperor said.
"Not necessarily." Ye Chengqi said, "Brother Emperor, please allow me to be my younger brother again, and asked Master Xiao Meng."
The emperor nodded.
Ye Chengqi stood up straight and raised his voice: "Xiao Mengshi, I still want to ask, are you sure that there are all the items in Menghuang's bedroom, and there are many of them that Menghuang used in the past?"
Xiao Hongxiu's heart shook.
"Yes." She said immediately, "Otherwise, how could Hongxiu think that Menghuang was just wandering around in Mengnv Temple, and she didn't report it to His Majesty until now..."
Ye Chengqi looked confused.
"In this case..." he said to the emperor, "it doesn't seem like Menghuang left by himself, the third possibility that I guessed..."
"You bullshit!"
Ye Hongxuan's voice interrupted him.
Everyone looked at Ye Hongxuan in surprise, only to find that he was pointing at Xiao Mengshi.Xiao Mengshi was also reprimanded by this "nonsense".
"Father! Please forgive my son's crime!" He knelt down and kowtowed.
The emperor's voice was chilling.
"What's your fault?" he asked.
"I first heard about Menghuang's disappearance, so I was worried and panicked, so I went to her bedroom!" Ye Hongxuan said, "Then, I found that not only the clothes she wore in Zhuzhi Hall were missing, but also my son. The bamboo flute that I gave her is also gone. That bamboo flute is very meaningful, she loves it very much, and never leaves her body..."
Everyone tried their best to ignore the meaning of the words "extraordinary meaning", but the word "token of love" still kept popping up in everyone's mind.This Prince Rui is really courageous, dare to say such words...
The emperor squinted.
"Then what do you mean, Menghuang was not taken away by someone, but left by herself?" He said.
"My son doesn't know!" Ye Hongxuan said, "I also ask my father to send someone to find Menghuang! As for why Xiao Mengshi deliberately concealed it, I also ask my father to investigate clearly!"
"Your Majesty!" Xiao Hongxiu panicked, "What His Highness Prince Rui said is not conspicuous, maybe, maybe it's because the people below didn't investigate carefully, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
The emperor snorted coldly, gasped for breath, and looked at Ye Chengqi.
"What do you think?" he said.
Ye Chengqi narrowed his eyes and pondered for a while.
"If that's the case, that's probably the third possibility that my younger brother conjectured." He said.
"What is it?" said the Emperor.
"I also ask Brother Huang to send all these irrelevant people away." Ye Chengqi said, "Of course, Prince Rui and Xiao Mengshi will still stay."
72 The most suitable candidate
In Qiankun Hall, only the emperor, Ye Chengqi, Ye Hongxuan, and Xiao Hongxiu were left.
"Mo Yan would like to ask Xiao Mengshi first."
Ye Chengqi walked up to Xiao Hongxiu's side, softened his tone, and changed his name.
"The Mengnv Temple has existed for hundreds of years, and it is enshrined by all the people. It is beautiful. Why is there only a Menghuang outside the Mengnv Temple?" He said.
"Hongxiu, Hongxiu, I don't know." Xiao Hongxiu's complexion was still a little pale, and his expression was uneasy.
"Xiaju, what do you think?"
Ye Chengqi looked at Ye Hongxuan with a smile, and at this moment, they were the only ones who could see the expressions on each other's faces.
Ye Hongxuan frowned.
This old fox!
Why do you have to call yourself Biaozi?
"Of course it is because of Menghuang's outstanding talent and extraordinary intelligence. There are countless dream girls throughout the ages and no one can hold a candle to him!" Ye Hongxuan said, "And God is grateful for my father's literary and martial arts skills, and his diligence in the court. Menghuang is specially descended to give me the emperor's longevity..."
"Okay, okay, there's no need to say nice words."
The emperor interrupted him and looked at Ye Chengqi.
"Mo Yan, what exactly do you want to say?" He asked.
"My brother is just thinking about it." Ye Chengqi said, "It is impossible to test the goddess of dreams in the past. Apart from my Menghuang, the most outstanding dreamer in the past and present is none other than the Diaoying Empress 300 years ago. My brother heard that, The Diaoying Empress also practiced hermitage in the wild, rather than being enshrined in a temple. May I ask Master Xiao Meng, is that so?"
The emperor immediately looked at Xiao Hongxiu.
"...Yes." Xiao Hongxiu said anxiously.
"So, you should already understand the third possibility, Brother Huang." Ye Chengqi said.
"You mean, Menghuang returned to the wild to practice dream art."
The emperor pondered.
"It's no wonder that during the banquet, she once told me that I would give her time to watch the heavens with her..."
"That's the case, Menghuang has always acted rashly, and he can't accept the pain of parting, so he didn't bid farewell to the emperor face to face." Ye Chengqi said, "It's just...Xiao Mengshi, can your people check carefully? Menghuang In the Huang room, is there not a single word left in it?"
"Your Majesty, Your Highness, there is really no..." Xiao Hongxiu said.
"Impossible!" Ye Hongxuan said suddenly, "It's impossible for her to leave without saying goodbye, it's impossible for her to leave so easily! You must be hiding it!"
"His Royal Highness Prince Rui, please calm down." Ye Chengqi said, "However, the former possibility cannot be ruled out. Menghuang was robbed by someone with ulterior motives."
The emperor was stunned.
"You two, you can leave now." He pointed to Ye Hongxuan and Xiao Hongxiu.
After the two retreated, he said to Ye Chengqi: "Then, in your opinion, how should this matter go?"
"No matter what the reason for Menghuang to leave, I think that if the emperor wants to find Menghuang, it is only suitable to make an unannounced visit." Ye Chengqi said.
The emperor wanted to ask why, but after careful consideration, it was indeed the truth.
The reason why we are passive right now is because the enemy is dark and we are clear.
If the court's actions are also carried out in the dark, it will naturally confuse the enemy.
And if Menghuang left by herself, making unannounced visits to welcome her back would not only give her enough face, but also save the emperor's own face.Otherwise, they would make a scene with great fanfare and say that it was Menghuang who fled privately because he didn't want to grant him immortality as the emperor, then both sides would look bad.
"It's better for you to think carefully." The emperor said, "Then how about I leave it to you to make an unannounced visit to welcome Menghuang back?"
He said, looking at Ye Chengqi with burning eyes.
Ye Chengqi suddenly knelt down.
"Brother Emperor, forgive me!" He said, "The Northwest is restless right now, there is a steady stream of official documents from the army every day, I am afraid that I have no time to take care of him, maybe I will ask Brother Emperor to resign at any time and hurry back to Pingliang! "
The light in the emperor's eyes softened.
"A few days ago, I asked you to find out where Menghuang came from, who was his teacher, etc. How did you find out?" he said.
Ye Chengqi pursed his lips in fear and did not dare to answer.
"That's all." The emperor said, "I know you are busy, so you can concentrate on dealing with military affairs. I will personally order someone to investigate this matter."
"Thank you, Brother Huang, for your compassion!" Ye Chengqi said gratefully.
"Then who do you think should be in charge of welcoming Menghuang back?" said the emperor.
"Actually, Hongxuan is the most suitable candidate." Ye Chengqi said, "He is the prince, and if he goes, it will completely show that the emperor treats this matter as a family matter. What's more, he and Menghuang are the most familiar……"
"Him?" The emperor glanced at Ye Chengqi and waved his hand, "Then what if he guards himself and steals?"
"Brother Huang is very worried." Ye Chengqi said, "But apart from him, who else can handle the family affairs for Brother Huang and also has a certain understanding of Menghuang?"
The emperor frowned and pondered, then suddenly smiled.
"In this world, the people who are most familiar with you are not only your friends, but also... enemies." He said.
Ye Chengqi was startled.
"Brother Huang means... Jiahui?" He said.
The emperor laughed.
"What I mean is not that Changning Palace is against Menghuang because of Jiahui." He said, "But since Jiahui had many conflicts with Menghuang in the past, her father and brother should also have a certain understanding of Menghuang. What's more, Su Huaqing possesses the talent of the world and the latitude and the latitude of the earth, and he can plan strategies in a square inch. His son Su Yushi is also capable of writing and martial arts. Can't welcome Menghuang back?"
The more the emperor thought about it, the more he felt that these two people were well chosen, and he couldn't help laughing.
"Besides, Su Huaqing is the queen's elder brother and my brother-in-law. Isn't it more appropriate to let him handle the family affairs on my behalf?" The emperor said, "Mo Yan, what do you think?"
Ye Chengqi's expression was reserved, but there was no joy on his face.
"Brother Huang is wise." He said.
The emperor frowned.
"Huh? Looking at you, it doesn't look like you really think I'm wise?" He said, "If you feel something is wrong, you might as well speak up."
"Yes." After Ye Chengqi hesitated for a while, Fang said, "Since Jiahui and Menghuang had such an unpleasant relationship, I'm afraid there is already a rift between Prince Changning and his son and Menghuang. Along the way..."
The emperor laughed.
"Mo Yan, you've been in the military for a long time and don't understand the affairs of Jinjue City." He said, "Then Su Yushi is humble and self-disciplined. ..."
The emperor didn't continue to say the following words, but Ye Chengqi already understood.
Because there was a rift between them, it was impossible for Su Mu to be "rebelled" by Menghuang, and the emperor didn't have to worry about what happened to Ye Hongxuan, it also happened to Su Mu.
"In this way, Prince Changning and his son will surely live up to the entrustment of the emperor and welcome back Menghuang as soon as possible." Ye Chengqi leaned over and bowed, "I will congratulate the emperor here first. I was too worried earlier."
"Get up." The emperor said, "Since you are busy, go on your own. Come, Su Huaqing, king of Xuan Changning, has come to see me in the palace."
Ye Chengqi withdrew with a smile, but paced slowly at the gate of the Forbidden Palace.
When Su Huaqing walked quickly into the palace city to face the saint, his expression really relaxed.
73 Green Luan with Mountains
Unlike the thousands of miles of ice in the north, the vast mountains in the southwest of Dazhen are now full of lush greenery.
A dusty blue-faced carriage, along the winding mountain road, slowly approached the Peach Blossom Town surrounded by mountains.
Although the carriage was dirty, the young man who was sitting on the shaft and driving the carriage had bright eyes and a handsome appearance. He didn't look like an ordinary driver at all.And the girl who got off the carriage also had picturesque eyebrows, lively and lovely, and a little flower pearl between her brows perfectly adorned her face.
Therefore, when the enthusiastic and honest town residents saw them, not only did they not feel vigilant, but they also felt close and friendly.
After resting overnight at the inn in the town, the two young men abandoned their carriages and headed for Qingluan Mountain in light clothes.
Qingluan Mountain, in the eyes of the residents of Peach Blossom Town, is an incomparably sacred mountain.
Because there were more than one woodcutters who saw gods haunting the mountains.
Because of the distance, it is difficult to tell whether it is a man or a woman at a glance among the green mountains, but the only thing that is certain is that the fairy's gestures and gestures are all of peerless beauty.Or raise a glass to invite the moonflower to sleep, or dance with the wind in the mountains, sometimes it seems that there is more than one fairy.
It is said that there is also a herbal picker who fell from the cliff and was rescued by a fairy. When he woke up from a coma, the wounds on his body had been bandaged and treated, and there was still the jasmine plant that he wanted to pick before he fell. Yinghua.
Although most people just laughed when they heard it, thinking that the herb picker wanted to raise the price of that rare purple flower with nine stamens.
But everyone still firmly believes that there are gods haunting Ziluo Peak.Although in the past two years, I gradually didn't hear anyone talking about it, and I saw those immortals again.
Ziluofeng.
What Zhu Rong and Shu Yang are currently climbing is this inaccessible first peak of Qingluan.
The mountain is high and steep, and most of the places are almost vertical cliffs, and there is no way to get off.
Shu Yang is like the most nimble and vigorous ape in the world, holding Zhu Rong with one hand and the vines hanging from the mountain with the other, stepping between his feet, jumping nimbly on the cliff.When it was even more difficult, he directly carried Zhu Rong on his back, but the speed of his feet was not slow.
It wasn't until the open place in the middle of the mountain that Zhu Rong let out a long breath and was able to walk on his own.
The plants, trees, houses, and houses that I saw in my eyes are all old scenes, but it is a pity that the closed tent door will never open suddenly again, and there will never be a man and a woman walking out from behind the door, talking to me and Shu. Yang greeted him with a smile.
Zhu Rong didn't rush into the bamboo house, but turned around and looked at the road.
After all, it is still winter, and the verdant mountains are chilling with greenery.A mist blows from nowhere, wrapping the winter mountains in layers of white gauze, and the Peach Blossom Town at the foot of the mountain is also covered, as if cutting off the world of mortals and the world.
"Shu Yang." Zhu Rong said, "After worshiping father and mother, we'd better go back to live in the town."
Shu Yang didn't express any doubts, let alone objected, but just nodded his head very quietly.
Zhu Rong smiled.
"Aren't you afraid that we will be caught?" She said, "Although Taohua Town is located in a remote area and isolated from the world, it is not really isolated after all."
Shu Yang shook his head.
Zhu Rong laughed.
"That's right." She said, "Even if we are found, then there is still time for us to run away."
Shu Yang also laughed, and he made a gesture.
Zhu Rong thought for a while and said: "Open a snack bar, and always do something that you have never done before. This kind of life is interesting."
Shu Yang nodded in agreement.
Zhu Rong raised his steps, looked up at the large bamboo forest all around, and then opened the door to enter the bamboo house.
As soon as she entered the room, she said in surprise: "Uncle Mo Xian has indeed been here, this place is different from when we left."
Shu Yang didn't do anything extra, just went to fetch water from the mountain stream outside the house with ease, and then went into the bamboo house used as a study to grind ink sticks for Zhu Rong.
Zhu Rong has already spread out the paper.
"Uncle Mo Xian will come to Ziluo Peak every year." She said, "Then I will leave the news of Xu Jingxing's serious illness and comatose here. When he sees it, he will naturally go to Jin Jue to save his apprentice."
---
He rode fast horses across the long street and stopped in front of Changning Palace.
Su Mu dismounted lightly and walked straight into Changning Wang Su Huaqing's study.
"Is there any news yet?"
Su Huaqing looked up and saw the person coming, put down the pen and ink in his hand, and asked questions slowly.
"It is certain that they have left Jin Jue." Su Mu said, "But all the clues and traces along the way have been deliberately covered up."
"Oh?" Su Huaqing said, "Then who do you suspect?"
"Of course they are the ones who don't want her to go back to Jin Jue and Mengnv Temple. It may be Prince Rui, it may be Duan Wang, it may be Xiao Hongxiu, or other people in Mengnv Temple. There are still forces hiding in the dark." Su Mu said, "It may even be Uncle Xu, or... Father, you."
Su Huaqing raised his eyebrows.
"I can understand the other people you mentioned," he said, "but why would I do this?"
"Because you said that she is a girl from our own family." Su Mu said.
Su Huaqing was silent.
Su Mu said again: "But her surname is not Su, the one surnamed Su is her mother. Her mother is the sister of your first mother and the twin sister of the current queen. Am I right, father? "
Su Huaqing raised his eyebrows.
"You guessed it," he said.
"I should have guessed it a long time ago." Su Mu said, "My father didn't recognize Zhuzhifeng back then, just to protect her, and you received such special treatment, and you have such a talent for dreaming and unparalleled medical skills. Moreover, she still values Jing Xing so much that it is her duty to rescue him. Who is she, the answer has long been ready."
Su Huaqing sighed.
"It's all your sister's fault, and it's also the negligence of you and my father and son." He said, "That's why things have come down to what they are today."
"Then why did she leave suddenly?" Su Mu said, "Because His Majesty has already suspected her identity, does she feel that she will soon be unable to hide it?"
Su Huaqing shook his head.
"I don't know," he said.
Both father and son were silent for a while.
"Go, go find her, if you find her, don't come back." Su Huaqing said suddenly.
Su Mu was stunned.
"Why, you don't want to go?" Su Huaqing said.
Su Mu struggled in his heart for a moment, and finally said: "I want to, of course I want to. But..."
"If you want to, then go. There are so many buts." Su Huaqing interrupted him, "If you feel indebted because of your sister, you should stay by her side and protect her at this time, just take care of your father good her."
"Father, do you know where she is?" Su Mu said.
Su Huaqing nodded.
"Should have known," he said.
"But if I leave, what will you do, Father? If His Majesty blames you, what will happen to Changning Palace?" Su Mu said.
"Where are you, where is the blood of our family." Su Huaqing said, "Don't worry about me, and don't worry about the Changning Palace. Could it be possible that this big family business can still trap you? Don't I have the ability to protect your father? This district mayor Ning Wangfu?"
Su Mu pursed his lips and looked at Su Huaqing, his eyes were bright as if they were shining with water, but his heart was swollen and hot.
"Go." Su Huaqing said, "I will send someone to hunt you down."
Su Mu understood what he meant.
"But you have to be careful, there may be nothing wrong in Jinjue City. When you leave Jinjue, you will definitely not only be a group of people for your father." Su Huaqing said, "Of course, at this time, the situation is getting worse and worse. Chaos, the better."
Su Mu nodded.
"The Emperor has sent people to keep a close eye on Prince Rui's Mansion and Mengnv Temple." He said, "But Prince Rui will naturally have the ability to act secretly."
"You don't have to worry about his people." Su Huaqing said, "They just want to cause you some trouble and prevent you from finding Rongrong. What you need to be careful of is those who will really kill you. These people, It's because I absolutely don't want to see Menghuang return to Jin Jue, nor do I want to see Menghuang alive in this world."
"But the son still can't figure it out." Su Mu said, "whether it is His Majesty or the father, why can we be sure from the beginning that she left Mengnv Temple by herself, not by someone?"
"Well, just look at how Prince Rui behaves today. If he doesn't know where Menghuang is going, how can he still sit in Jinjue City?" Su Huaqing said, "Prince Rui is still too young after all, and also underestimated the wisdom of our Majesty. The emperor just has no evidence, and he doesn't want to hurt the peace of father and son, so he never made things difficult for him."
"...So that's the case." Su Mu said, "Everything has been predicted by His Majesty."
"Of course there are things he didn't expect." Su Huaqing said, "That's you and me, and Prince Duan."
Su Mu understood.
"Look, father, where is she... at this time?" He asked.
Su Huaqing's eyes revealed some depth, and his voice seemed to be a sigh from 20 years ago.
"At the junction of Zhenqi and Qi, there is a mountain called Qingluan. If you can't find it there, then you don't even know where to look for it as a father." He said.
74 The Power of the Mountain
"Xuan'er, you can't go!"
In the middle palace, the empress persuaded Ye Hongxuan.
"Menghuang escaped, you have something to do with this matter! Your father ordered you to stay in Jinjue City, if you disobey, do you know what the consequences will be?"
"My son knows!" Ye Hongxuan said, "So I implore the queen mother to let my father relieve my son's foot restraint! My son is willing to welcome Menghuang back for my father!"
"Where are you going to welcome Menghuang back?" Queen Su said, "The sky is high and the land is vast, do you know where to go to find her? If you don't say one, two, three, how will your father be?" Agree to you? He will only think that you are taking the opportunity to leave Jin Jue and go to sleep and fly with that girl!"
Ye Hongxuan laughed, with a miserable expression.
"If we can stay and fly together with her, what's so bad about it? It's a pity...it's a pity!" He clenched his fists as he spoke.
"How dare you even say such a thing, are you not afraid that your father will know?" Empress Su asked urgently.
"So what if Father knows?" Ye Hongxuan said, "Apart from her, what else in the world can threaten me?"
"Even if I use this country as a threat, can't I threaten you?"
The emperor shouted suddenly, shocking everyone in the palace.
Ye Hongxuan turned around trembling, and when he faced the emperor, his face was already full of tears.
For things like tears, the first time has happened, the second time will be much easier.
Including Empress Su, all the people in the hall knelt down to the emperor, but Ye Hongxuan still stood.
"Father, you can't threaten me." He said, "Even this country can't threaten me. Because without her, this country is meaningless to me."
"evil creature!"
The emperor slapped him across the face, and Ye Hongxuan was beaten back three steps.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
Empress Su hurriedly walked a few steps on her knees, grabbed the hem of the emperor's dragon robe, and blocked Ye Hongxuan behind her.
The servants in the palace were trembling and crawling on the ground, wishing they could bury their heads in the ground.
The emperor glared at Ye Hongxuan.
"To this day, you really are still coveting Menghuang!" He shouted.
"Father, forgive me!" Ye Hongxuan knelt down and cried, "It's just a thing of love. It starts from the heart, but it doesn't stop! I really have no choice! Please allow me to go out and find her back Come! Erchen didn't dare to do what he thought, but just wanted to confirm her safety with his own eyes..."
The emperor looked at him, and then looked down at the queen, his anger subsided slightly.
"Everyone gets up, everyone gets up." He said, "My prince and queen are crying and crying one by one, what do they look like?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Empress Su hurriedly wiped her tears and stood up, and another servant stepped forward to help Ye Hongxuan.
The emperor waved his hand to order a group of people to retreat, leaving only Ye Hongxuan and the queen in the palace.
"Xuan'er, I will ask you again in front of your mother today." He said, "If I exchange the position of prince with you, I will exchange you for not taking half a step of Jin Jue within three years. Are you willing to exchange?" ?”
Empress Su looked at Ye Hongxuan with tears in her eyes, for fear that he would say "no".
"No." Ye Hongxuan said.
Empress Su almost fainted.
"Mother!" Ye Hongxuan quickly supported her.
"Xuan'er, you, you..." Empress Su was weeping, but she could only look at Ye Hongxuan shaking her head, speechless.
The emperor nodded.
"Then you go." He said, "From now on, the crown prince has nothing to do with you."
"Thank you father for your accomplishment."
As Ye Hongxuan said, he knelt down and kowtowed three times, Fang got up and strode towards the outside of the hall, full of impatience.
The emperor's gaze on his back was exceptionally gentle.He turned his gaze back to the weeping queen.
"Don't cry, Hua Xin," he said.
Empress Su replied yes, but the tears welled up even more fiercely.She clearly knew that because of her son's light "no" just now, both she and him had lost something.
The emperor laughed.
"But because of what I just said, Li Xuan'er will no longer be sad for the prince?" He asked softly.
"The concubine dare not." Empress Su cried.
The emperor laughed.
"You are short-sighted," he said.
"A concubine who is a concubine and a woman in the palace, what great insight can she have?" Empress Su said, "Of course it can't compare to Your Majesty's majesty."
"Nonsense!" The emperor said with a straight face on purpose, "You are my empress, my mother honors the world, and the empress who governs the six palaces for me, are you an ordinary woman in the palace?"
Empress Su wept and said nothing.
"When I find Menghuang, you and I will share eternal life as husband and wife, and we are tired of being the empress." The emperor said, "The position of empress will naturally be passed on to others."
"Your Majesty's meaning..." The queen raised her head with tears in her eyes.
"The crown prince is the crown prince of a country." The emperor said, "If I can live forever, what other crown prince does our Dazhen Empire need?"
Empress Su immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
"The concubine doesn't know His Majesty's painstaking efforts, so I ask His Majesty to forgive me!" she said.
"Okay, okay, I understand your loving mother's heart and worrying about your son. But that is also my son."
The emperor lifted her up as he spoke, but gradually frowned and thought deeply.
"Xuan'er is a temperamental person. He can throw away the throne for that girl. Naturally, it is impossible for him to take her away that day, otherwise, he would have left with her long ago." He said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your insight." Empress Su wiped her tears.
But the emperor didn't seem to hear her words, as if what he just said was not meant for her.
"It's just that if it wasn't Xuan'er, who could it be?" The emperor pondered, "Could it be that she really has the ability to leave by herself, and she also covered up all her whereabouts?"
"Come here, tell me that Su Huaqing has entered the palace." The emperor suddenly shouted loudly.
Before Su Huaqing arrived, the servant who was in charge of the two ends ran in first.
"Your Majesty, something has happened outside," he said.
"What happened?" asked the emperor, frowning.
"Yesterday morning, Prince Changning brought people to the vicinity of Chenliu, but he didn't expect to encounter an ambush in the mountains..."
"What's the result?" The emperor's expression changed suddenly.
"...The son and his party suffered heavy casualties, and the son himself fell off the cliff and lost his whereabouts."
"When it rains..."
Empress Su had just recovered from her son's blow, when she heard the news of her nephew's death, she was struck by a thunderbolt, her eyes darkened and she almost fainted.If it weren't for the support of the two maids, she would have fallen to the ground.
The emperor also shook his body twice.
"Look! I want to meet someone... In short, I must find him! Let Su Huaqing not have to go to the palace, I will go out to see him!" He said, "I will find out who it is The assassin I sent, I want to destroy his nine clans! Also, let Ye Moyan also go to Changning Palace!"
---
Changning Palace.
Su Huaqing seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. Faced with the emperor's words of self-reproach and comfort, he only said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about my humble minister. It is a pity that my father and son are incompetent and couldn't do it. The matter entrusted by His Majesty, Xiao Xiao can take advantage of it."
"Don't worry." The emperor thought for a while, and he could only comfort him in this way, "When it rains, he, auspicious people have their own appearance."
"With the protection of the emperor's brother, the son will be able to save himself from danger." Ye Chengqi said.
The emperor nodded.
"The two of you, one civil and one military, are both my pillars and my right arm." He said, "In your opinion, who has been secretly obstructing Menghuang's court?"
75 who is who
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being unable to answer this question." Su Huaqing said.
"Why is Maolin so assertive?" the emperor said, "With your wisdom, how can there be any doubts in this world that can confuse you?"
Su Huaqing smiled wryly.
The emperor also felt a little gaffe, and his face showed embarrassment.
The man in front of him had just received bad news about his parent and child.
As a father, the emperor put himself in the shoes of the emperor. Even if something happened to his least favorite son, and others praised him for his wisdom, he might wish to kill that person, not just a wry smile.
"Mo Yan, what do you think?" The emperor looked at Ye Chengqi.
Ye Chengqi pondered for a while, then said: "My brother thinks that brother-in-law said 'I can't answer', but in fact he has already answered Brother Huang."
"How do you say it?" said the emperor.
"Probably there are too many people who don't want Menghuang to return to court. Therefore, even with the wisdom of my brother-in-law, I can't figure it out. Who exactly did it?"
Ye Chengqi looked at Su Huaqing as he spoke.
Su Huaqing said: "That's exactly what I mean."
"Absurd!" The emperor scolded angrily, "Menghuang's status is above all sentient beings, and only below me, how dare those people not want her to return!"
Ye Chengqi and Su Huaqing hurriedly knelt down.
"Brother, forgive me."
"Your Majesty forgive me."
they said.
"Hey, get up, I didn't mention you."
The emperor ordered the two of them to get up.
In fact, with one word, the emperor himself was like a mirror in his heart.
I'm afraid it's because Menghuang's status is too respected that he has become a thorn in the side, a thorn in the flesh, and a serious worry for many people.
The Mengnv Temple has existed for hundreds of years. Because of its special status, it can influence the key decisions of the rulers of the past dynasties. Many dignitaries chose to send Mengnv to them, so that women from their respective ethnic groups entered the core influential class.
In the past, the method used by dream girls to choose, although it is said that they only need to pass the double assessment of women's studies and dream test stones, but neither the women's studies nor the dream test stones are easily accessible to ordinary women.The existence of the dream card is a natural moat between officials and ordinary people.
Occasionally someone like Xiao Hongxiu has no prominent background, but by virtue of her outstanding dream skills, she becomes the master of a temple.After many years of management and good at dancing, he has already had a lot of entanglements with various forces.
Even though the emperor had sent someone to keep a close eye on Mengnv Temple, if she wanted to take action, she would be helpless.
Assuming that the entire Jin Jue is a huge net with Mengnv Temple as the center, how many officials and noble families and powerful families can not be caught in the net.As the years go by, I have long been in you, and you in me, and they are intertwined, and everything is damaged, and there is no way to shake it easily.
"It's no wonder why, as Mo Yan said that day, why only this Menghuang has been born for hundreds of years, and he is still in the wild and not in the court. I think that since the founding of my country, Dazhen, it has been handed down to me through sixteen generations of emperors, so that the dream girl The people in the temple live too comfortably. If you don’t practice dream art but study power art, what kind of dream are you building? What kind of longevity and heaven are you looking for? And Menghuang..." The emperor sighed, "I was negligent. To put a girl like her in such a difficult situation."
Ye Chengqi's face suddenly changed.
The emperor saw that his description was different, and asked, "What's the matter, Mo Yan?"
"Your brother deserves to die." Ye Chengqi knelt down again, "Your brother should have noticed it long ago, but he didn't think about the stakes, and he didn't report it to Brother Huang in time."
"What do you mean by that?" asked the emperor.
"When my younger brother built a temple for Menghuang in the past, she was extremely worried about the safety arrangements outside her bedroom. My younger brother only thought that she was a girl with a heart and felt uneasy about strange places." Ye Chengqi said, "It seems that now , it should be that from the very beginning, she knew what kind of danger she was facing."
"If that's the case, could it be that Menghuang fled because she sensed that someone was doing her a disservice and couldn't ask His Majesty for help?" Su Huaqing said.
The emperor's complexion changed several times, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable he became.
This is the only way to explain why Menghuang left without saying goodbye, and Prince Rui, who had always been in close contact with her, didn't know about it, and was so anxious that he was willing to give up the emperor's position and go out to find her.
"Silence!" The emperor said abruptly, "I want you to find Menghuang for me personally! I don't believe that there is anyone in Dazhen who has the ability to hurt you! If anyone dares to stop Menghuang from returning to court, he will It's blocking my way of longevity and heaven, and I'm accomplices in treason, so I'll kill you on the spot! I'm going to kill their nine clans again!"
"Your brother takes orders." Ye Chengqi kowtowed on his knees, "When I return to the manor and finish explaining the military matters, I will set off immediately."
"Hold on."
The emperor said, and fell silent again.
"The war in Beili really made me feel uneasy." He said, "In this way, if you find Menghuang, you don't have to rush to take her back to the imperial capital, but take her to the army for strict protection. I can just part ways with you. To do things, take this opportunity to thoroughly investigate. How many people are still in Jinjue City, looking forward to the death of my Menghuang. The old tree in Mengnv Temple has somehow become a cash cow for some people. Soil, moved the ground."
"My brother obeys the order."
Ye Chengqi kowtowed again.So even he didn't see the cold light that flashed in Su Huaqing's eyes.
"Mo Yan, I only believe in you. In Zhen Kingdom, you are the only one who can do this for me." The emperor pressed Ye Chengqi's shoulder and said solemnly.
"Your brother will not disgrace his fate." Ye Chengqi said.
"You also need to pay attention to your own safety." The emperor said, "Although you are good at martial arts, you still need to be more careful. After you find Menghuang, protect her for me."
"Yes."
"Mao Lin, you should have a good rest." The emperor said to Su Huaqing again, "I will order someone to find out about the rainy matter as soon as possible, and give you an explanation."
Su Huaqing nodded gratefully.
When he and Ye Chengqi broke up outside Changning Palace, the emperor did not drive back to the palace immediately.
He stood beside the guard of honor for a while, and an inconspicuous gray-brown figure quietly landed beside him.
"Let me keep an eye on Mo Yan." The emperor said, "Every move he makes must be reported to me."
The man was slightly surprised.
"Wasn't Prince Duan surrounded by Jing Shen and Jing Zhan?" He said.
"Depth of field? Jing Zhan? Then do you still want to talk about Jingxiang and Jingze?"
The emperor sneered and glanced at the man.
"They are no longer yours, let alone mys, but... the silent ones." He said.

When half of the people in the capital camp were around Chen Liu, busy searching for Prince Changning's son, he naturally didn't really fall off the cliff and die.
Although it was unexpected that the gang of men in black attacked fiercely, fortunately, his father had reminded him first that he had finally escaped from his shell.
Then he rode his horse and galloped day and night, until he crossed the Cangjiang River, and he was sure that no one would recognize him again. Only then did one of his nerves relax a little, and it didn't really break down.
But his speed still did not dare to slow down a bit.
Because he was afraid that he would be late, even if the girl had really been there, she had already left.
And when Prince Changning rushed to Yunzhou day and night, another unfortunate thing happened to him.
76 I drive
Out of the house, the purse was dropped.It's embarrassing for this to happen to anyone.
What's more, the person who happened to this matter was the prince of Changning who was always innocent, reserved and noble, hugged before going out, and admired by thousands of girls.
In addition, he was afraid of revealing his identity, so Su Mu didn't think about what the pawn shop was at all, just gritted his teeth, and rode alone for nearly a thousand miles, and arrived at Peach Blossom Town among the mountains in the evening two days later.
At this time, the horse under his crotch was already foaming at the mouth from exhaustion, kicked its hind legs twice and struggled away.
Su Mu didn't enter the town immediately, he squatted down beside the small stream outside the town by the lights of the town.After drinking a few sips of cold water, I tied up the somewhat messy long hair with a hairpin, and finally cleaned my hands and face very carefully.
When he stood up again after doing all this, his legs were a little weak. After all, he hadn't slept for two days and nights, and he hadn't eaten anything.
This is the only small town within the range of Qingluan Mountain, and it is very close to the Ziluo Peak that my father mentioned.
Along the way, he had already considered how to ask the townspeople if Zhu Rong had been here after arriving here.And after seeing her, how should he explain his appearance to her.
But he had calculated everything, and he never thought that he would lose his money bag halfway.
Even though he had more important things on his mind at this time, he still couldn't help but be attracted by the seductive fragrance wafting from the small house by the road.
A small flag was picked out from the eaves, and the word "Mian" was written on it.
It turned out that this is a noodle shop.
Just by smelling the noodles, one can conclude that the noodles they sell must be delicious.
Then Su Mu couldn't move anymore.
Prince Changning's son just stood outside the Pengmen like this, neither moving forward nor leaving.
He didn't have any money to go in and ask for some food; he couldn't bear to leave like this, and he really couldn't move anymore.
The small wooden door next to the flag opened without warning at this moment.
With the warm fire light flowing from the room, Su Mu felt that his world was also lit up in an instant.
He saw a girl who was as agile and beautiful as a fairy.
The flower tin on the girl's forehead is facing away from the firelight, but it still reflects a little bit of starlight, exuding a twinkle of silver light.This light is like a star, reflected in the lake between her palms.
With a basin of water in her hand, Zhu Rong looked at Su Mu in great surprise.
But compared to how he appeared in this small town out of thin air, she was more surprised——
"Have you been robbed?" she asked.
Su Mu was taken aback, a little embarrassed.
"I... don't look good
