Lu Changan and Qin Feishi were in front, followed by Yang Guogong, Yunhou and Murong Tuo. They were all sweating profusely from the sun and were glaring at Yan Mu angrily.

Yan Mu glanced at it and leaned back lazily, still holding a newly opened memorial in his hand.

"King Suping, Marquis Yun, and several officials from the Ministry of War strongly recommended General Murong Tuo to take over the camp on the outskirts of Beijing." Yan Mu read the contents of the brochure, twitched the corner of his mouth, and tilted his head to look at Murong Tuo, "Nanbian Prefecture is the employer.

On this occasion, it turns out that General Murong, as a military general, does not want to go to the battlefield to protect his family and country."

Murong Tuo's face darkened, "The folders sent to the study by the cabinet are all sealed with wax. It is a capital offense for anyone other than the Holy Father to read them privately!"

"capital offense?"

Yan Mu raised an eyebrow, then picked up the pen, made a big cross on the fold, and threw it in front of Murong Tuo.

"General Murong should leave for Nanbian Prefecture as soon as possible and forget about the camp on the outskirts of Beijing."

"you!"

"Oh, that's right." Yan Mu ignored Murong Tuo and turned to look at Duke Xiang Yang, "The fine of ten thousand taels of silver is because I feel sympathy for your Duke's palace. After all, he has the merit of serving the dragon and is from a hairpin family.

, but it seems that you don’t understand His Highness’s painstaking efforts. Otherwise, would you be fined another 350,000?”

Duke Yang's pupils suddenly shrank, "Your Majesty, the Seventh Highness, Da Rong's Law is not a child's play, and we and other ministers are not yours to tease!"

Yan Mu laughed, "Am I teasing you?"

Marquis Yun laughed: "His Highness asked me to wait under the scorching sun just now. Isn't that called teasing?"

"It's obvious that you are the ones who insist on seeing the Holy One. What can your Highness do?"

Yan Mu spread his hands, his dishonest and shameless look made these people furious.

"Your Majesty the Seventh Highness!" Lu Changan shouted in a low voice and narrowed his eyes, "The Emperor is not in the palace, right?"

"Probably." Yan Mu said.

"We suspect that Your Majesty Seventh Highness, you held the Emperor hostage, hid him, monopolized the government, excluded dissenters, and were suspected of treason."

"King Suping is right, His Highness Seventh Prince intends to rebel. We will definitely capture you after we uncover your plot today." Qin Feishi said with sharp eyes.

"Take the emperor hostage? Intent to rebel?" Yan Mu rolled his eyes, as if he heard a big joke, then he lifted up the lower corners of his clothes, exposed his feet, and raised them up to show them, "No, keep your dogs open.

...Ahem, open your eyes and see, is it possible for His Highness to rebel like this?"

There were iron ropes around Yan Mu's ankles, locking his feet.

"You are still holding the emperor hostage? Are you out of your mind? Are you talking nonsense with your eyes open?"

"Don't you want to capture His Highness? Take it quickly. My Highness has been hiding in this room for half a month. He has long wanted to go out and take a breath. You can put me in the sky prison. I like that place. At least I don't have to look like this.

Too many memorials are too much for the eyes."

At this moment, Lu Changan and others were a little confused. After being quiet for a while, they all looked at Shangguan Xu who was standing aside.

Shangguan Xu sighed and said, "The emperor has left the palace."

"The emperor has left the palace?" Lu Changan frowned, "Then where has the emperor gone?"

Shangguan Xu shook his head, "I don't know."

"Why did the emperor leave the palace?"

"I don't know."

"Do you have any guards with you?"

"I don't know."

Duke Yang was a bit impatient and yelled, "Then what do you know?"

Shangguan Xu lowered his eyes and said, "Your Majesty only asked your servants to take good care of His Highness the Seventh Highness and let him handle the government affairs on his behalf. However, if he has the slightest intention to change his mind," Shangguan Xu pointed at the Shang Fang sword hanging on the west wall and made up his mind.

Finally, one word popped out coldly: "Kill!"

In response to this word, Yan Mu even shrank his neck.

"So you see, I am the one being held hostage."

Lu Changan and Qin Feishi glanced at each other, and the smart ones put down their posture.

"I also care about the emperor, so I broke in." Lu Changan said calmly.

"Yes, thank goodness we found out. The most important thing right now is to find the emperor quickly. Our Five Cities Military and Horse Division will do our part," Qin Feishi said.

Lu Changan nodded, "Then there is Prince Lao Anqing, and the fact that the emperor is not in the palace needs to be kept secret. No leaks can be made, let alone other ministers, to avoid causing chaos in the court."

"King Suping is still thoughtful."

The two of them walked each other down the steps, and then looked at Yan Mu together.

Yan Mu was leaning on the Arhat bed, leisurely reading the next memorial.

"The emperor will discuss with all officials when dealing with major state affairs, but His Highness the Seventh Highness is indeed arbitrary in reviewing memorials. Isn't this inappropriate?" Lu Changan said with a stern face.

Upon hearing this, Yan Mu picked up the pen for a moment, then twitched the corner of his mouth, folded the memorial in his hand, and threw it in front of Lu Changan.

"Anyway, Your Highness is already fed up. Otherwise, King Suping will review it from now on."

Lu Changan lowered his head and unfolded the memorial. It was originally a memorial he submitted after discussing with Marquis Yun. This memorial was about many of the actions of Yan Mu's Zhenbei Army that disrupted military discipline. It was clearly Yan Mu's connivance, implying that he had done something wrong.

heart.

What they wanted was to take advantage of Yan Mu's passive situation as he was deeply involved in Yang He's corruption case, and deprive him of military power. They didn't expect that this would fall into his hands.

"King Suping, how about I give you the military power of the Zhenbei Army?"

"Your Highness, I am just discussing the matter."

"It seems that King Suping's ambition is not small. After taking away my military power, the next step should be to seize the throne, right?"

"Your Majesty the Seventh Prince..."

"Eh?" Yan Mu turned to look at Shangguan Xu, "The emperor has ordered that if I have the intention of treason, I will let you kill me, but what if others have the intention of treason?"

Shangguan Xu lowered his eyes and smiled, "You can kill the Seventh Highness, let alone others."

"Then the body will be cut into pieces!"

"It pleases His Highness Seventh Prince."

This is like saying that as long as Yan Mu thinks someone is plotting rebellion, he can use this Shangfang sword to kill him first and then report him.

Lu Changan was so smart. He knew that there would be no good results in a head-on confrontation, so he stopped talking immediately. Qin Fei glanced at Shangguan Xu and saw that the emperor was not in the palace, but he didn't tell him. At this time, he was still singing with Yan Mu, and he didn't either.

Silly, I know that Shangguan Xu will not fight on his side right now.

The two parties thought about it for a while and then retreated one after another.

"Your Majesty Seventh, what should we do now?" Shangguan Xu picked up the memorial from the ground and put it on the note in front of Yan Mu.

"We?" Yan Mu raised his eyebrows.

Shangguan Xu sighed helplessly, "Right now, you and I are really just grasshoppers on the same rope. If we don't unite, we may end up in the pot together."

Yan Mu snorted, "Since they know that the emperor is not in the palace, they will definitely send a large number of people to find the emperor. What we can do is to find the emperor earlier than they do."

Shangguan Xu was silent for a moment and said, "But His Highness the Seventh Prince doesn't know at all why the emperor suddenly left the palace?"

"have no idea."

"really?"

Yan Mu rolled his eyes, "Look, you don't trust me at all. I don't trust you either. Maybe you hid the emperor with the intention of treason!"
