He did feel sorry for his wife and daughter, and he did give his love and indulgence to another person. But as the prime minister, he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.
It's just that the tricky answer back then is not applicable now.
"Mu Xiang, you should know that to be an official, you must first be a human being." The emperor left these words and he was invited out of the imperial study.
Mu Zhiyuan remained silent, without speaking, with his back straight. He could bear the consequences of what he did.
When he was about to leave the palace, he saw Feng Yunxian passing by him.
The other party didn't give him any look, his expression was indifferent, and he had an extraordinary demeanor, which suddenly reminded him of himself when he was young.
"They are getting married so soon?" Mu Xuanyi held the invitation in her hand, wondering why Mu Zhiyuan was so anxious.
"Now Master Mu has been demoted and is only a third-rank official in the court. Master Mu may have sensed a sense of crisis, so he is so anxious and wants to win over the third prince as soon as possible."
The housekeeper is well-informed and often travels outside. At this time, he respectfully explained to Mu Xuanyi.
Mu Xuanyi twitched her lips: "I told him everything, but he only demoted Mu Zhiyuan by one rank. It seems that the Dog Emperor still values Mu Zhiyuan very much."
"This...I heard that I originally wanted to demote him to three levels, but His Majesty is grateful for Prime Minister Mu's contribution to the court over the years, which can be regarded as a great contribution to the court. He cannot deny his contribution because of a slight flaw in his life, so he will use his discretion.
He was demoted one level and asked to take care of his family affairs as soon as possible, and the post of prime minister was also removed..."
Cold sweat suddenly broke out on the housekeeper's face. Who dares to call His Majesty the Dog Emperor? Only their young lady is a maverick.
"Young lady, please be more careful with your words from now on. I am the only one here, but outside..." He hesitated before speaking and looked at Mu Xuanyi carefully.
Mu Xuanyi nodded: "Don't worry, I told you this alone. If word gets out by then, it will be your fault and no one can take it away."
The housekeeper was about to cry but had no tears. Is this what he was worried about? Besides, who likes to take the blame for no reason!
"Okay, okay, at least I did get a bit of a job reduction." Mu Xuanyi comforted herself, at least the money was not wasted.
but……
"He no longer wants to be the prime minister. Who is the unlucky guy who has been given the position of prime minister? He has been running the court for many years, and ordinary people cannot hold down this position." Mu Xuanyi was very curious about the identity of the other party. He couldn't be from Bailiping.
Human right?
"Miss, that unlucky guy... is Master Feng." The housekeeper broke into a cold sweat. Fortunately, he had cleared out all the servants in advance, otherwise Mu Xuanyi would be the dog emperor and the unlucky guy again.
, if someone heard it, he wouldn't have to live.
"Huh? Are you kidding me?" Mu Xuanyi suddenly stood up.
How could it be Fengyunxian?
Their plan did include Lamu Zhiyuan's dismounting, but it was not at all in their plan that the emperor gave Feng Yunxian the position of prime minister.
"It's true, miss. Your Majesty summoned Mr. Feng that day and gave him the position of prime minister. Now this matter has spread throughout the streets." The housekeeper was extremely helpless. Miss, can we not be surprised?
At first glance? Even though he was quite old, he was still frightened.
"No, I have to ask him!" Mu Xuanyi had already walked out impatiently, but when she reached the door, she stepped back with a look of bitterness and hatred.
"Miss, aren't you going?" The housekeeper looked at her movements and couldn't guess what she wanted to do.
Mu Xuanyi sighed: "Master Feng won't let me see him during this time."
This was something that had been discussed before and something she had promised personally. If she violated it like this, wouldn't it make people think that she didn't keep her word?
The first day I couldn't see Mr. Feng, I missed him.
Mu Xuanyi sat melancholy in the yard. In order to promote the smooth progress of the so-called plan, she had to make some sacrifices.
But the person who has the biggest headache at the moment is not her, but Feng Yunxian.
He frowned, and Bailiyuan walked around him, making him dizzy.
"Your Highness, if you continue like this, I will go back." He couldn't bear it anymore and said coldly.
Bailiyuan paused and pretended to be asking for advice humbly: "Teacher, help me!"
"Your Highness, although I am your teacher, we are similar in age. There is not much age difference between you and me. You must learn to grow up independently." Feng Yunxian persuaded with sincerity.
He didn't know what kind of fanaticism the emperor had, so he had a hothead and asked him to be the prime minister.
This also led to a sharp increase in the number of things he needed to deal with. He had no free time at all on weekdays. Even coming to see the prince was a break from his busy schedule.
The emperor's canonization did not make him feel very happy. It only brought him endless troubles. Together with their plan, the recruitment was stagnant because of the lack of core figures.
Feng Yunxian always prepares things in advance and then acts according to the plan. Now, he really doesn't like this unplanned situation.
Among the other emergency plans he prepared, there was no one who would be named prime minister by the emperor!
"If the teacher doesn't help me, I definitely can't complete it on my own." Bailiyuan sighed. Although he has learned a lot from Feng Yunxian over the years, everything must be a step-by-step process.
He had learned so much before, all of which was theoretical knowledge. If he wanted to use it in actual combat, why did he have to adapt to it for a while? But now the other party asked him to get started directly. How could it be that easy?
If he had followed their original plan and practiced in the court, he would be able to get used to it in another month or two. With Feng Yunxian helping him, nothing would go wrong.
But now Feng Yunxian himself has too much time to take care of himself, so he has no time to care about him.
"Teacher, if you want to see me being scolded by my father and questioned by all the officials, just let me fend for myself." Seeing the helplessness on Feng Yunxian's face, Bailiyuan immediately said in anger.
Feng Yunxian resented the indifference of iron: "You are a prince, can't you have some ambition of your own?"
"Teacher, I really don't know how to do these things they asked me to deal with. If I am no longer familiar with the way the imperial court operates, I will definitely not be able to get started directly. Please help me, teacher!" Baili!
Yuan has no choice now. Even finding Feng Yunxian is already the last resort for him.
"Let's do this. I'll find a way to get Miss Mu into the palace. She's very smart and will definitely be able to help you. At that time, you can say good things to Concubine Liang and try to keep her in the East Palace. It will be much more convenient for her to help you.
