Mu Mingyuan snorted coldly and said nothing.
Qin Muzhao had no choice but to tear it apart and say in detail: "The emperor may not be willing for you and me to become sons and daughters. Now that there is a rumor that your family and I are falling out, it is really beneficial to the eldest prince. They are all for the same purpose. Mu
Brother, why do you worry so much about trivial matters?"
Mu Mingyuan's face was livid: "You mean, Qin Xuran said in public that what I Qier was pregnant with was not his flesh and blood, and he did it on purpose?"
Qin Muzhao said with joy on his face: "That's it. After all, Ran'er was born in Jiyun Academy. Although his literary and military skills are a little immature, he has a sense of things in the court. Our Qin family's glory is just around the corner!"<
/p>
In fact, Qin Xuran was just used to everything going smoothly. When something suddenly happened that might damage his face and reputation, an instinctive self-protection arose in his heart, and he instinctively denied it, wanting to shirk all the responsibilities and remove himself from the blame.
Just come out.
But now that the matter has come to this, how can Qin Muzhao say anything?
Besides, there were mistakes. When the news about Qingyun Tower came out, the eldest prince’s staff immediately thought it was a good thing. After discussing with Qin Mu Zhaoyi, they decided to break off the engagement with great fanfare.
If this makes the emperor no longer suspicious of the eldest prince, it will be beneficial to both of them.
Mu Mingyuan's face darkened: "So, my Qier deserves to be wronged? A woman who gets pregnant before marriage is already criticized. Now that the child is not her fiancé's, you are going to force her to death!"<
/p>
"No, that's not the case!" Qin Muzhao said: "Brother, how can it be child's play for us to talk about in-laws? My family Ran'er is very affectionate for your family Qier. The two children are in love, and they have a child, of course.
We’re going to get married!”
Mu Mingyuan almost jumped up and cursed: "Old man, in this case, you speak so eloquently during the day!" See if he is speaking in human language? Because of his words, those who were watching the excitement were all excited.
Believing that the child was not Qin Xuran's, everyone pointed at the Mu Mansion, scolding him for Mu Mingyuan's inability to teach his daughter, scolding him for the chaos in the Mu family's backyard, and scolding his Qier for being shameless!
Now, he told himself that the two children are in love with each other and they already have children, so they must be together?
Qin Muzhao, who was pointed at the nose and scolded angrily, was also angry in his heart. However, he still showed a good-tempered smile and said in a rebellious manner: "Brother Mu, I have no choice but to do it in front of others.
By doing this, how can people believe that we have broken up and there is no room for maneuver?"
"There is no room for maneuver, how can the two of them get married?"
Qin Muzhao said: "Yes, of course they can get married!"
"Tell me, how can it be done? How else can it be done?" Mu Mingyuan almost yelled. However, although he was very angry in his heart, his face was just gloomy! He just said every word, as if he was clenching his teeth.
What he said with his teeth was full of gloom and coldness.
There was still a feeling of sullenness in his heart. He had already secretly joined the eldest prince, and there was no way he could change his mind. However, Qin Muzhao was the eldest prince's uncle, and they were close and distant. After all, there was a difference. He could never compare to him in this regard!
Qin Muzhao said: "Brother Mu, please be patient! Marriage is given by the emperor. Of course, we should go to the emperor for this matter."
Mu Mingyuan sneered: "Looking for the emperor? The emperor will definitely be happy to see the end of the engagement between Qin and Mu's family!"
Qin Muzhao smiled confidently and said: "No, Brother Mu, it may have been like this before, but now our two families are obviously in the same situation. If the two families break up, the emperor will not be embarrassed. If one party is unwilling
, the emperor will definitely make the decision. In order for the two children to be together, I have to wrong you for this matter!"
"You mean to tell me to ask the emperor?" Mu Mingyuan's voice even rose a little. This is an old fox who has been in the court for more than ten years and climbed to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Even if he looked angry or annoyed before,
His expression is cold or gloomy, but his voice is always under his control.
But such a city couldn't suppress its voice because of these words.
Qin Muzhao smiled and said: "Brother Mu, think about it, since I personally came to the door today to cancel the engagement, you are so angry that you ask the emperor to make the decision. This is only reasonable and reasonable!"
Because of a young man's farce, they were able to lead it to the officialdom and take advantage of it. They were able to exploit every opportunity.
After Mu Mingyuan's initial rage, he reached a consensus with Qin Muzhao, and the two discussed it in detail for a long time. Finally, Qin Muzhao put on a tight cloak and left quietly through the side door.
After he left, Mu Mingyuan was still in the small study. He paced back and forth, and then praised: "It's so tall!"
It's a pity that it's getting late now and the palace gate is closed, otherwise he would even want to enter the palace right away.
He looked happy, but he had no intention of telling Kong Yijia and Mu Manqi.
This matter is of great importance. If the news leaks out, they will be passive. There is no need to let them know the delicate situation in the court.
As for Qier’s grievance?
It doesn't exist. He has already obtained the greatest benefits for Qi'er just now.
After the young man in Tsing Yi left the tavern, his steps were brisk and he had a slight smile on his face, just like a young man returning home from school, walking towards the darkness at the end of the street.
Swish, swish, swish!
Like the night wind blowing leaves, very light, very light.
The young man stopped and scratched his head strangely, with an honest look on his face.
The wind stopped and the sound disappeared.
The young man continued to move forward.
The front is darker and more remote. Not only are there no people in the streets over there, there are not even any wild cats or dogs.
The young man's whole body suddenly trembled, and then he fell to the ground like a wooden stake.
It was a quiet night and there was no one in the street. The young man in green fell to the ground silently.
After a while, a figure appeared like a ghost from behind a shadow. The figure walked up to the young man in green clothes on the ground, looked down at him, sneered slightly, and then raised his foot, as if he was ready to kick him hard.
Just as he kicked out, a sharp scream suddenly sounded.
Then, the whole body lost weight and tilted down, as if it was about to fall to the ground. The foot that kicked the person was completely cut off, including the sole.
The young man in green clothes stood up, with a silver-white dagger exuding cold air in his wrist. There was no blood on it, and it was still as bright as the moon.
The figure's voice was sharp and angry: "Are you okay?" As he spoke, he didn't even want to use the broken sole of his foot. He pushed the intact one to the ground, exerted force, and wanted to run away.
However, something seemed to be restraining his waist, and then a heavy object fell violently. His movement was blocked and he could not move an inch, and then he fell hard to the ground.
Under the faint moonlight, the man was dressed as a waiter, looking exactly like the talkative and enthusiastic waiter from the tavern before.
