Chapter 167: Become a military advisor

"Madam, I'm back." After Zunmo Jun came out of the dungeon, he returned home without stopping. He had made up his mind to discuss this matter with his wife Gu Muqing.

Gu Muqing had just finished breakfast and looked at Zun Mo Jun standing in front of him with a look of surprise. He was sweating all over his body and smelly.

"Prince, why are you back so soon?" She asked with her lowered the bowls and chopsticks in her hand.

Zun Mojun pulled Gu Muqing, who was sitting on the chair, held her hand and walked towards the study.

"Oh, Prince, please wait, I can't keep up with you anymore." Gu Muqing, who was jogging all the way, gasped and said to Zun Mo Jun with a bumpy breath.

Zun Mojun then noticed that he was really anxious and exerted too much force just now. He looked at Gu Muqing's wrists that were red from being pulled by him and touched them with pain.

"I'm sorry, madam, I was really too anxious for my husband just now."

The two of them slowed down and walked into Zun Mojun's study.

"Prince, I'm so anxious that I want to say something to you?" Gu Muqing stood up and looked for hot water to make tea in Zun Mojun's room.

"Qing'er." Zun Mojun said as he looked at Gu Muqing who was spinning around in the study.

"You don't have to work there anymore. Come by and I'll discuss it with you."

Gu Muqing poked his head out of the shelf with the porcelain on it, pouted, and sat next to Zun Mojun, "Why is the prince so anxious? I just ate many small steamed buns in the morning and I was so choking."

Zun Mo Jun had no choice but to call Chunyu and asked her to make a pot of good tea for them to bring it into the study. Looking at Zun Mo Jun shook his head helplessly, raised his eyebrows, as if asking her if she was satisfied now.

Seeing that Gu Muqing was not in trouble, he said to Gu Muqing with a serious expression.

"I just went to the dungeon and found out that something important was about your assassination."

Gu Muqing lowered her head and looked at her nails. When she heard about the assassination, her heart couldn't help but tighten.

During this period, she was lying in bed and resting, always restraining herself from thinking about this matter. Whenever someone touched on that matter, the scene of herself bleeding in the water would appear in her mind.

She pouted and didn't say anything. Gu Muqing knew in her heart that Zun Mo Jun's love for him was more than that of anyone he loved. Now that he could talk to her about this, there must be something he could not solve by himself.

I am the most his wife, and since things have happened, I have to face them.

Gu Muqing raised his head and said to Zun Mojun, "Your Majesty, tell me, what did you find."

Zun Mo Jun cleared his throat and looked at Gu Muqing and said, "Do you still remember the palace maid who was assassinated by you. We all thought she was the maid in Gu Muqi's palace, but now there is a turning point."

Gu Muqing raised his eyebrows with a questioning look on his face and looked at Zun Mo Jun.

He continued, "Feng Qi and Wang Yulin rescued a female corpse in the palace last night. The female corpse looks exactly the same as the assassinated female corpse. This morning I went to Chengbei Prison to investigate the matter. We found that there was a female corpse with a blue birthmark on the shoulder, while the other one was not. Madam, you really didn't see it. If you were also present, you must have thought that the two were the same person."

"So it seems that someone has dropped the palace maid?"

Gu Muqing continued to say Zun Mo Jun, "Actually, I have thought carefully these days when I was lying down. I think even if Gu Muqi wants to touch me, he will not choose to do such a thing on a striking day like visiting him. What's more, the hidden weapon that the palace maid pulled out at the beginning was rushing towards Gu Muqi, not me."

"If I hadn't pushed Gu Muqi away that day, the hairpin wouldn't have hurt me."

Gu Muqing touched his chin and thought, "I think that person might have wanted to attack both of us sisters, or he might not have wanted to hurt me in such a field. Maybe the assassin was too much or failed in the mission, so he was silenced."

Zun Mo Jun listened to Gu Muqing's well-informed analysis and nodded, and he said to Gu Muqing.

"What my wife said is so, and I think so too, so I thought deeply about it and felt that the next thing should be done with me, not to mention that Concubine Mu in the palace can be safe for a while, but the tree is already a big hit, so I am afraid that those who want to do it are still looking for another opportunity."

Gu Muqing nodded and asked Zunmo Jun what she needed to do.

Zunmo Jun said to Gu Muqing, "What you need most now is to find a way to enter the palace and ask clearly which maid is the one who has been serving in Yongbao Pavilion."

After saying that, Zun Mo Jun shrugged, saying that he had no better way at the moment.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong." There was a knock on the door. Zhinan walked into the room with a pot of steaming tea and gently placed the teapot on one side.

Gu Muqing looked at Zhinan in front of him and had an idea. Just as Zhinan was about to close the door and go out, Gu Muqing called her, "Zhinan."

Zhinan heard Gu Muqing's call, quickly turned around and walked quickly to Gu Muqing, and knelt down, "Madam, call me."

"How did you do the clothes you promised to make for Concubine Mu before?"

Gu Muqing suddenly remembered that it was a good time to send Zhinan into the palace. Zhinan had already promised to sew a gorgeous dress for every empress in the palace. She fainted from overwork earlier. She had been recuperating recently, so she put this matter behind her mind.

"When I go back to my wife, Zhinan has already prepared the clothes and put them in the cabinet, waiting for his wife's call."

Zhinan lowered his head and said to Gu Muqing.

Gu Muqing nodded and said to Zhinan, "I told you earlier that I wanted to send you to the palace. At that time, it was for the children in my belly. For the sake of this Xuanwang Mansion. Although the children are gone now, it is no longer safe to see that the Xuanwang Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion. In the past few days, I will find an opportunity to find a way to send you in. I will tell you something when you go back to the house with me later."

After hearing this, Zhinan nodded obediently, stood up, turned around and walked out of Zun Mojun's study. She raised her head and clenched her hands tightly into fists.

Since Gu Muqing was killed and miscarried, Zhinan has been indignant for a moment. She blamed herself for not driving out the batch of clothes earlier. If she had entered the palace earlier, she might have found some clues earlier. A little bit of a flaw may have caused such pain.

The child in Gu Muqing's belly was also full of expectations for Zhinan. On the night when she was rushing to make clothes, she took some time to sit on the child's bellybands several times.
