Mu Yan didn't know when his heart fell in love with her.
Maybe she brought herself a ray of light in those hopeless days.
While he was tossing and turning, he also asked himself whether he should drag her along and spend time with him hand in hand. As a proton, if he could not return to Yunnan and stay in the capital, he would probably not be able to gain real power or be reused for the rest of his life.
But after returning to Yunnan, all children born in the future will be sent back to the capital and their flesh and blood will be separated.
Just like how my grandfather sent all four young sons back to the capital to be used as hostages.
Taizu entrusted the responsibility of guarding the southwest border to the Mu family out of trust, but at the same time he was wary of everything.
The Mu family is in charge of the military, government and people's livelihood in Yunnan Province. How can they allow others to snore on the side of the bed?
During the reign of Taizu, on the one hand, the Mu family was allowed to guard the border and rely on them everywhere. On the other hand, they successively sealed the kingdoms of King Jingjiang, King Zhou, and King Min in Yunnan. When Emperor Yongkang came, he also sealed the kingdom of his beloved son King Han in Yunnan.
.
We can see that the Emperor’s heart is on guard.
Unexpectedly, the King of Han cried out that Yunnan was far away and bitter and cold, and he did not want to accept the vassal status, so the Emperor just did this.
I don’t know when or if he can return to Yunnan. But no matter what, the title of Duke of Guizhou cannot fall into the hands of Jun and Mu Zhan.
But is she willing to accompany her to the bitter cold frontier?
Over there, foreign races live together, and there are mountains and dense forests, and it is far less prosperous and lively than the capital city.
Mu Yan's heart was agitated, and he stared at Huo Xi outside the window. Seeing that she was engrossed in listening to the book, he laughed heartily from time to time, and sometimes looked at her in a daze.
When Gong Ziyi saw it, his eyes were filled with sadness.
He thought that he fell in love with her and would never forget her for a long time, and that no one in the world could be as sincere as him. But now that he saw him, he realized that he was far inferior.
"She deserves the best in the world," Gong Ziyi looked at him, "If you can't treat her wholeheartedly, why don't you hurt her."
Mu Yan looked back at him with firm eyes: "Three thousand people are prosperous, but they drink all the joy and sorrow for just one person."
Gong Ziyi was so shocked that he drowned three thousand people and only took one scoop. Who wouldn’t want such beauty in the world? How many people can do it?
"Don't lie."
"I never lie."
The two men stared at each other in the air, and Gong Ziyi was defeated. He looked out the window, looking at the woman who made him toss and turn.
"When you say something, you must do it. She won't let you down, and I hope you won't hurt her."
"I can't bear to do it." I can't bear to hurt her even a little bit.
Gong Ziyi looked at him again, feeling sad in his heart. If he had been more determined and decisive, would everything have been different?
We were only a stone's throw away from that person, but now we were separated by mountains and seas, and it was no longer possible.
I'm afraid I won't be able to come to this capital again.
After Huo Xi and Mrs. Chen returned to the private room after listening to the story, Gong Ziyi took out two deed papers from his sleeves with a smile and handed them to Huo Xi.
"Sister, this is a little thought for my brother. I don't want you to be involved in rumors because of me. I am extremely ashamed. These are two shops in the capital. My grandfather said that he would give them to you, my adopted granddaughter."
"I can't accept this. Didn't I give you many gifts? Taking them down would seem greedy. Besides, I never take those rumors to heart."
"One yard owned by a yard……"
"I can't accept it."
The two declined.
Mrs. Chen looked at her man's face and saw that he was different from when he first arrived. She breathed a sigh of relief and asked for two deed papers and put them into Huo Xi's hand.
"My sister is just afraid that good things are coming soon. You also know that we are far away from Huai'an and it is not easy to come here. This is just a gift from my family to my sister. If my sister doesn't accept it, will her identity have changed now and she will look down on us as a merchant family?
Already?"
"What are you talking about, sister-in-law? I am a merchant myself, how can I look down on merchants?"
After thinking for a while, I took down the two deed papers.
"Then I would like to thank my brother and sister-in-law for their thoughtfulness. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for me to go out in the future, and I hope my brother and sister-in-law will take more care of the store in Huai'an."
"Don't worry, sister, do you still need to give me an order? Your brother is here, so just don't worry." Mrs. Chen glanced at Gong Ziyi and agreed with a smile.
Huo Xi thanked him again.
Just as they were about to say goodbye, a servant hurriedly ran over.
"Girl, something happened to the young master!"
"Nian'er? What happened?"
"The young master and the Duke were riding horses in the countryside, and for some reason, they fell off the horse!"
"What!" Huo Xi stood up hastily.
"How did you fall?" Mu Yan and Gong Ziyi also stood up in a hurry.
"My knee hit a stone and it bled a lot. It looked like the bone was not broken, but I don't know if there were any broken bones inside. The young master just complained that it hurt."
Huo Xi almost fainted.
Mu Yan supported her and pushed her out. When he saw Gong Ziyi trying to follow him, he said, "Thank you very much, Brother Gong, for your hospitality today. I won't stay with you two longer."
Gong Ziyi paused in his steps: "If there is any news, I hope I can send someone to tell you."
Huo Xi nodded and hurried out.
The carriage kept stopping all the way. When we got to the gate of the house, we got off the carriage and hurried to Nian'er's yard.
Mu Yan followed behind, wanting to say a few words of comfort, but seeing that she completely ignored her, he had no choice but to give up. Following closely behind, he entered the British palace.
Huo Nian has been treated by doctors outside, and is now being examined by the imperial physician who has arrived.
"Sister..." She was lying on the bed, feeling wet when she saw Huo Xi reaching out to her.
Huo Xi hurriedly walked over and took his hand. She didn't bother to look at the people in the room, only staring at the imperial doctor who was treating him.
The imperial doctor checked and found that the bleeding had stopped. The skin on the kneecap was bruised and the surrounding area was black and blue. When he pressed it, Huo Nian screamed that it hurt. When he pressed it again, there was still a reaction.
Reported to Zhang Fu: "The bones are not broken, but the knee was knocked very hard. I don't know if there are any broken bones inside. Observe it for a few days. If there is any change in the position of the wound, then cut it open to check."
Zhang Fu breathed a sigh of relief, but when he heard this, he felt worried again. If there were broken bones inside, wouldn't it hurt to death?
My heart ached with pain.
"Can't we judge now?" We still have to let our son suffer for a few days. If the wound has changed by then, will it be too late to cut it open and check?
Zhang Fu was communicating with the imperial doctor when Huo Xi looked at him and Zhang Jie beside him with cold eyes.
Zhang Jie noticed her gaze and shrank behind Zhang Fu.
Zhang Fu glanced at him, then followed his gaze and saw Huo Xi's cold gaze towards them, and his heart trembled.
"Nanny, it's all my fault that my father didn't take good care of Nian'er."
I don't know why Nian'er's horse suddenly went crazy, jumped up with its front hooves, and threw Nian'er heavily to the ground.
He observed that the bay-red horse given by Mu Yan was originally a mare and had always been docile. Nian'er also fed and washed it himself, so he and Nian'er had a good relationship.
I don’t know why I dropped Nian’er.
Huo Xi didn't listen to his explanation and only stared at Zhang Jie beside him coldly.
Zhang Jie usually complained that he was tired, but Wu thought that he was the future young prince, and he did not need to take the imperial examination or go to the battlefield. He never asked him to study hard and practice hard. He had never ridden a horse, so he wanted to follow him this time.
Wu didn't stop him from learning equestrian skills.
Huo Xi only thought that Zhang Jie was trying to compete for favor, and Zhufeng and others were there, so she didn't pay much attention. Little did she know that something would happen.
