Song Jue looked at the three people who followed Ying Shisan and quickly left the study, then looked down at the two roast pork dishes in front of him, and sighed softly.

"He ran really fast!" Song Jinyu also sighed, "Who is this Mu Sheng? Why are they so interested?"

"A person who is very important to us." Song Jue waved his hand towards Song Jinyu, "Don't worry about that, let's try the dishes!"

Seeing Song Jue like this, Song Jinyu knew that he didn't want to continue talking. He picked up the chopsticks on the table, picked up a piece of roast meat and put it on the plate in front of Song Jue.

Song Jue's mind was not on roasting meat at all. His thoughts had followed Song Qiyun and the others to the Zhenguo Palace.

He believed that Tantai Pingchuan was sincerely on his side, or on the side of Daxia. With the Xuanyuan family as a guarantee, there was no way he could get out of the way, not to mention that this senior was old and had lost all his belongings.

They all take it very lightly and just want to live a peaceful life.

Song Jue has no doubts about this at all. What he is worried about is the position of the Mu family and those who are loyal to Tantai Pingchuan. Whether they will choose the same camp and stand on the same side as his master like his master.

Thinking of this, Song Jue couldn't help but sigh again. Maybe there were too many things going on recently and he began to feel suspicious.

Song Jinyu and Eunuch Cui looked at Song Jue who was deep in thought, looked at each other, and shook their heads at the same time. Being an emperor is really not easy.

Song Qiyun, Bai Meng and Jin Miaomiao, who followed Ying Thirteen back to the Duke's Mansion, met Tantai Pingchuan at the gate of the Duke's Mansion, who had also received the news. Several people greeted them at the door, went in together, and went to the warm hall.

Walk in the direction.

Ying Thirteen opened the door of the warm hall and respectfully invited Tantai Pingchuan in. Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, and Dai Yi who had not seen him for a long time in the warm hall saw Tantai Pingchuan and all stood up and saluted him.

Tantai Pingchuan nodded slightly towards them and looked at the tall and thin man standing in the center of the warm hall.

In fact, the eyes of the few people who came in later were all attracted to this man.

This man is nine feet tall, but he is very thin. He looks not in good health. He is not as broad-minded and fat as ordinary businessmen, nor is he as strong as a warrior. At first glance, he is a very tall man.

A tall average person will not make any special impression on everyone if thrown into the crowd.

Song Qiyun, who had been in the shadow training camp for a period of time, couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw this middle-aged man with an unattractive appearance. He is really a good material for being a spy. From head to toe, from inside to outside.

It's so appropriate.

"Senior, please!" Shen Haolin originally wanted to give up his seat to Tantai Pingchuan, but Tantai Pingchuan refused and chose to sit under him. When everyone else had sat down, he took a look at the tall and thin middle-aged man.

The man looked at the young child standing next to him and raised his eyebrows slightly, "The atmosphere is not right. Are you guys quarreling?"

"Senior, there is no need to worry. There was no quarrel. It's just that they have some minor worries that need to be resolved." Shen Cha shook his head gently, "Senior, you may know that there is a marriage contract between the Mu family and the Dai family, but in this situation, this marriage contract seems

It’s a bit embarrassing.”

"It's indeed embarrassing." Tantai Pingchuan nodded, "What do you two think?"

"Back to my lord, I think this is what I think. If this engagement really has a bad impact on Xiao Dai or becomes a problem for him, I can agree to terminate the engagement. And..."

"What else?" Tantai Pingchuan raised his eyebrows, "Don't hesitate or have any worries. If you have anything to say, just say it. I believe that the Duke and the general will understand all the decisions you make."

"Yes, my lord, my subordinates think so too. But this decision affects not our relationship with the Duke's Mansion, but the relationship between the Mu family and the Dai family." The tall and thin middle-aged man is the current president of the Mu family.

Mu Sheng looked at Dai Yi, stood up straight, faced him, and said, "Let me just say it directly. From the day you left Xijing for Jiapingguancheng, I have already begun to think about whether to terminate this engagement."

Already."

"Uncle Mu, you..." Dai Yi never thought that Mu Sheng would say such words. He looked at him in shock, "I..."

"Don't be impatient. Listen to me and tell you slowly. First of all, our Mu family has only had this girl for several generations. She is the treasure we hold in our hands. Regardless of other positions and identities, but from the perspective of a father,

In terms of status, I don’t want to see my daughter marry someone far away from home."

"You don't have to marry far away, she can..."

"Can I stay in Xijing and be a widow?" Mu Sheng sneered, "Do you think this is appropriate for my daughter? Is it fair? If your sister or daughter has to live such a life, as a brother and father, do you think you

Can you bear it?"

"I..." Dai Yi swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said with difficulty, "I...should...can't accept it."

"You can't accept this even if you compare it with your own, so why do you force us to accept it?"

"Uncle, you misunderstood, I'm not forcing you, I just..."

"You just don't know how to make this choice and make this determination, right?"

"Yes." Dai Yi admitted that he was very entangled, "I don't want to let my sister down, and I don't want her to be involved in our disputes. From the day I found out your true identity, I was panicked and didn't know what to do. Except

Uncle, the reason you gave just now is also very important. Even if our two families fulfill this engagement, even if I know that even in the next fifty years or even longer, you and this senior will be the same as us.

camp, but they still have grudges and can’t help but have doubts.”

"Don't you think clearly? Why are you still so hesitant?" Mu Sheng looked at him in confusion, "Once the seed of doubt in your heart is planted, it will only take root sooner or later.

In the early days of your marriage, your little life will be very sweet and warm, but as time goes by, the seeds of doubt begin to sprout. If your little sister follows you to the border, you will

I suspect that she told me everything she saw at the border, and that she conveyed some news to me about the border and Jiaping Pass. If she doesn't go to the border with you, you will also suspect that she is keeping an eye on the Dai family.

Every move." He sighed softly, "Perhaps you will convince yourself that these are all your guesses, and my little sister did not do this, but if you do it more often, the guesses will become facts in your heart. And here we are.

On this day, even if the two of you come to an end, either you divorce your wife, or..." He shook his head gently, "It won't end well anyway, right?"

"You are right. I have thought about these issues, but..."

"If you are the one who proposes to terminate the engagement, you cannot say this because you feel sorry for my little sister and think it is bad for her reputation." Seeing Dai Yi nodding, Mu Sheng smiled, "You are a good boy, I read that right. Man, our Mu family will terminate this engagement, so you don’t have to be embarrassed." He looked at Tantai Pingchuan, "My lord, is this okay?"

"Master Guo, Xiao Cha, what do you think?" Tantai Pingchuan looked at Shen Haolin and Chen Cha, "If you have no objections, this is the decision."
