Chapter 834 National Crisis

When he heard that he was going to demote himself to a commoner, the emperor was prepared to scold him, but he didn't dare to say it now.

"Cough, although my father is very ill, he is also worried about the government and feels even more sorry for you. Is the Qing Palace a troublesome? The ministers are embarrassed by you? My father is really powerless, which makes my son wronged, cough."

Yan Mu rolled his eyes and said, "Please rest assured to recuperate, my son will not express his grievances."

"The prince is so filial, and the emperor is very pleased."

"Then I will sue my husband first."

"No hurry, my father has one more thing to discuss with you."

Yan Mu's thoughts changed, "Father, please give me instructions."

"In two months, it will be August fifteenth. My father wants to build the Piaoyue Tower in the palace, which is more than ten feet high, so that the Mid-Autumn Festival will be celebrated with the people."

"A dangerous building is a hundred feet high, and you can pick the stars with your hands."

"When I dream of noble people dancing on the Picking Moon Tower will be extremely beautiful."

Yan Mu sighed. The Southern Jin Dynasty had already entered, the Northern Jin and the Western Yue were also eyeing each other. Everyone was not united and worked their own business. At this time, Darong was at the moment of life and death, but as the emperor, he only wanted to enjoy himself.

"The national treasury has no silver." Yan Mu said.

"It's not that there is no one." The emperor said a little unhappy.

Yan Mu pursed his lips and thought about it. He really had a lot of money, it depends on how thick-skinned the emperor was.

"Crown Prince, I asked you to prepare 200,000 taels, isn't it too much?"

"The father is embarrassed by his son's ministers, but it is hard for a good wife to cook without rice."

"The court had previously searched the Prince of Zhenbei Palace and collected 200,000 taels of silver. Did the prince forget this?"

"No, Yang He's case has been settled, and the son-in-law has also cleared his suspicion. He was thinking about going to Dali Temple in the past two days to get the money back. The father knew that the son-in-law's salary was limited, and these were all for the princess. Alas, the son-in-law was ashamed. A big man actually spent the money that women had worked hard to earn."

“…”

"Father, what are you just trying to say?"

"There are many things in the court, so don't worry about the matter of Zhaiyuelou."

"Yes, thank you for your understanding."

After coming out of the main hall of Chengtian Palace, Yan Mu breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor would not give up on the matter of Zhaiyue Tower, but this building must not be built. If it is really built, Darong would be really helpless.

"Your Highness, please walk slowly, oh..."

Guiren Meng bowed his knees and saluted, but sprained his feet and rushed into Yan Mu's arms.

Yan Mu was flexible and immediately dodged. The noble man Meng rushed into the air and almost hit the pillar.

"Your Highness!" After standing firm, Concubine Meng stamped her feet in anger, "You don't continue to click on me, why don't you understand how to cherish the fragrance and jade!"

Yan Mu shook his sleeves and swept the dust on his body, "I am afraid of being dirty."

"You!" Meng Guiren was so angry that her face turned blue.

"I heard that Meng Guiren loves dancing and likes dancing at a high place?"

Concubine Meng twisted her waist, "Your Highness hasn't appreciated my dancing posture yet, no wonder she is so ignorant."

"Don't always think about jumping on the high ground."

"What does this mean?"

Yan Mu looked at the noble man Meng, his eyes slashed, "If you fall down from a high place, your life will be lost!"

Guiren Meng's face turned pale immediately, "Your Highness is threatening me?"

"Ha, I'm just a reminder: Be careful!"

After saying that, Yan Mu turned around and walked out.

Guiren Meng looked at Yan Mu's back as he walked away and narrowed his eyes, "I still insisted on standing on a high place to dance so that everyone can see my dancing posture, even if I die the next moment!"

Two more days later, it will be the day when Liu Yunxiang and his party set off.

Yan Mu watched Liu Yunxiang ask Zijin to take out his luggage, and he pulled her into his arms.

"Let Qin Feishi go, you stay."

"He's going?" Liu Yunxiang glanced at the corner of her mouth, "He's going, this battle will definitely start."

"I don't feel at ease with you."

Liu Yunxiang reached out and held Yan Mu's face, "Actually, I don't feel at ease with you."

"Or you stay with me in Shengjing, or I accompany you to Zhenbei."

"You are in Shengjing, I'll go to Zhenbei."

Yan Mu frowned, "We are not saints, nor Bodhisattvas who save suffering, nor are they loyal and righteous people. Whether they can protect the great fortune and the country, whether the people suffer or not, we can go far away and we can be free and free!"

"Yes." Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Our family of five can leave Darong and live our own little life."

"That……"

At this time, a subordinate came to report: "Your Highness, Lingnan urgently reported that the Southern Jin massacred dozens of people and demonstrated to our army. Our army could not bear the humiliation and confronted the Southern Jin army head-on, but... but suffered heavy casualties!"

When Yan Mu heard this, his face suddenly turned ashen.

"He, Nan Jin, really thinks that our Darong is easy to bully!" Yan Mu said gritting his teeth.

Liu Yunxiang's face was not good either. She held Yan Mu's hand tightly, "We are not saints, but we are from Darong, so we can't be at peace at this time. You stay in Shengjing to stabilize the overall situation, and I'll go to Zhenbei."

Upon hearing the news, the court officials rushed into the palace, and Yan Mu had to stabilize them.

He hugged Liu Yunxiang hard, "What kind of bastard did I do in my previous life? I owe so much debt!"

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "You, you are such a person, in your bones."

He said selfish words, but he never retreated in front of Zhongyi. He didn't want to shoulder the world, but his bones were burning with fire to protect the country and the people.

This is Yan Mu, and she is always moved by Yan Mu like this.

The outside was urging him to the point where Yan Mu could not send Liu Yunxiang out of the city.

"Don't worry, I have Zijin, Feng Zheng, and Qin Fei around me, so there will be no problem."

After coaxing Yan Mu away, Liu Yunxiang said goodbye to his two children, and then took a carriage out of the city.

Qin Feishi was waiting for her at the city gate. When he saw her coming, he said, "In his lifetime, we can still go together."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Since we are on the same road, we have to work together."

"Ha, don't worry, as long as I have a breath, I will definitely bring you back safely."

"As long as I have a breath, I will bring you back safely."

"You woman like to talk big."

"Recite and exchange."

It is rare for the two to be so relaxed, but the road ahead is actually not easy.

Because Liu Yunxiang was pregnant, although things were urgent, they were still stable along the way. When it was dark, they stopped in the inn next to the official road.

At night, when Liu Yunxiang was about to fall asleep, she heard a noise downstairs, so she asked Zijin to take a look.

Zi Jin took a look and came back soon.

"A woman with a hood is going to stay, but the inn is full. The woman insists on the shopkeeper to free up one, which will start to quarrel."

"A woman?"

Liu Yunxiang thought about the mountains and forests and had to walk far away to find a place to live. A woman was really unsafe.

"So, stay with me tonight and free up your room for that woman."

Zi Jin nodded, "Okay."

But when she went out, the woman had already left.
