Outside Kangning Palace, a man in a light yellow brocade robe walked out. After taking a few steps, he stopped, turned his head, and looked at the palace that had been there for a long time. I wonder if this palace had not been repaired for a long time.
Because, it looks a bit dilapidated, just like the people inside, it cannot withstand the invasion of time after all. The corners of his mouth suddenly raised, and his face was full of ridicule. Are you using him? Then he will let them know the price.
!
Before Mu Qingyuan took a few steps forward, a man in a brocade robe with dazzling patterns came over, with a resolute look on his face. His expression did not change much as he looked at the person opposite.
Looking at the person coming, Mu Qingyuan's hand holding the imperial edict tightened. He soon put on a smile and said, "Second brother is also here to pay his respects to the emperor's grandmother today?"
Mu Kexiang raised his eyes and glanced at the person opposite him, and said calmly: "I have been back to the palace for a few days, but I haven't come to pay my respects to the imperial grandmother." As he said that, his eyes unconsciously looked at Mu Qingyuan's right hand, and the corner of his mouth raised a vague smile.
Wu said in a mocking tone, "It seems that the fourth brother has obtained the imperial edict to kill Gao Qi tomorrow?"
"Thanks to my father's love, I have this opportunity. To be honest, my eldest brother has led soldiers before and is used to killing. I am afraid that my second brother is more suitable for this important task than me." Mu Qingyuan said humbly, but it was difficult for him to do so.
He concealed the look of pride in his eyes, and he deliberately emphasized the word "past" very harshly. It was only a thing of the past that Mu Kexiang led troops, and now he no longer has military power.
Glancing at the person opposite, Mu Kexiang said indifferently: "I am not very interested in prison execution, so I will take the first step." With that, he directly passed Mu Qingyuan and left.
Mu Qingyuan nodded slightly and stood there for a long time. He turned around and looked at the departing figure, with a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes. He was just the son of a lowly maid, how could he compare to his legitimate son.
With a cold snort, he walked directly forward.
At the other end, as if he noticed that the person behind him had gone away, Mu Kexiang also stopped. He turned back and looked at the departing figure, a cold look flashed across his resolute face, and then he looked towards
Walk to Kangnying Palace.
On the second day, all the pedestrians on the streets of Liangdu rushed in one direction - Dongmen Vegetable Market. Today was the day to punish Gao Qi. Everyone applauded the execution of this heinous corrupt official.
, naturally I want to see the scene when Gao Qi finally died.
Prime Minister's Mansion, Suxuan Pavilion, Yun Yan was lying on a soft couch, with no intention of going out to join in the fun. There were a lot of people there, and if someone saw him, he might not be able to tell clearly. However, Mu Qingyuan was executed in prison, and his uncle was executed by his nephew.
What a clear distinction between public and private matters. The emperor's imperial edict really helped Mu Qingyuan a lot. In this way, the reputation of the fourth prince as a wise king would be even greater. However, Bishui insisted on going out to take a look, but he disappeared early in the morning.
But the most important reason is that there is an uninvited guest in the room at this moment!
Looking at the man sitting at the table and drinking tea contentedly, Yun Yan leaned on the soft couch and sighed inwardly. He really deserves to be a follower of Mu Jingnan. His temperament is somewhat similar to his... the same self-confidence.
Come and be mature!
"Why did you come to my Suxuan Pavilion this early in the morning?" Yun Yan suddenly sat up straight, looked at the man in black clothes below, and said. She had met him a few times, and I had an impression.
The most profound thing was the cooperation with him outside the Heavenly Prison. This man was very powerful in martial arts, and she once marveled at how Mu Jingnan managed to take such a person under his command.
After hearing this, Guyaocheng, who was still drinking tea by himself, put down his tea cup, turned back to look at Yun Yan, and said with a smile: "Of course I came to see the third lady. Don't you welcome the third lady?"
Yun Yan raised his eyebrows, gently lifted his chin, and said calmly: "You are welcome, but isn't today the day to kill Gao Qi? Since you are someone close to him, you should naturally be interested in this matter, so don't go
I really can’t think of any reason why Gao Qi came to my place after seeing his head on the ground.”
Guyao Cheng raised the corner of his mouth slightly. This woman seemed to be calm and unhurried at all times. Standing next to her, there was always a sense of oppression. Even though she didn't look good, she couldn't ignore her, let alone despise her.
"Well, of course there is a reason. He asked me to keep an eye on you to prevent you from going to the east gate to watch Gao Qi's execution. There are too many people there, and I'm afraid your identity will be exposed!" Guyao City said jokingly, not knowing why.
, there was a vague feeling that he was treating an eagle as a chicken. He had seen the woman in front of him with her martial arts. There were probably few people in the world who could be her opponent. If he really wanted to take action, he would not be able to stop her.
It's just that this matter is not trivial and he has to come.
Did Mu Jingnan ask him to come? Yun Yan frowned slightly, and it didn't look like he was lying. But, even so, he only needed to send someone to inform her, and the person in front of him was already here.
The hour has passed, but she still has no plans to leave. She is not the kind of person who can't listen to good things. Mu Jingnan doesn't understand.
"Where are the Mu Jingnan people?" Yun Yan pondered for a moment, then looked at Guyao City and asked.
Smiling indifferently, Guyaocheng looked at Yun Yan and said jokingly: "Is it possible that the third lady misses the sixth prince so much after not seeing him for a day? But I'm afraid he won't have time to see you today, otherwise I wouldn't be the one to come.
It’s here.”
Yun Yan twitched the corner of his mouth, was he teasing her again? She said calmly: "Really? I would rather you come!"
Hearing this, Guyaocheng was stunned for a moment. He raised his eyes and looked at the woman on the soft couch. The shallow smile between his eyebrows made the people watching a little scared for some reason. Then, he said with a smile:
"In that case, I would like to thank Miss Third for your favor."
"I can't talk about favor. I just want to ask you something." Yun Yan looked at the man outside the bead curtain and said straight to the point.
A trace of suspicion flashed across Guyaocheng's face. He wanted to see something from the woman's face, but there was clearly no emotion involved in such a calm face.
After restraining his emotions, Guyaocheng said with a smile: "I would like to hear the details!"
Yun Yan withdrew her gaze and stroked her head. What happened in her mind was what happened yesterday at the Sixth Prince's Mansion. At that time, the depression that flashed through Mu Jingnan's eyes was so profound that she really couldn't rest assured.
"What does Mu Jingnan want Tianxiang Cardamom for?" Yun Yan raised his gaze and turned his head to look at the man sitting outside, with an indescribable solemnity in his eyes.
As if sensing the solemnity in Yun Yan's expression, Guyao Cheng's mind froze, his eyebrows knitted together, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
"I didn't want to ask, but I always felt like something happened to him!" Yun Yan glanced at Guyao City, and he seemed to be affected by something. It seems that she was not wrong!
After hearing this, Guyao Cheng sighed softly, with a bitter smile on his lips. He looked at Yun Yan and sighed: "You should ask him about this matter. I can't tell you!" As he said, he
Looking at Yun Yan, "What about you, what do you want Tianxiang Cardamom for? Didn't you just want to take away Tianxiang Cardamom?"
In this case, did she really have no choice but to ask Mu Jingnan? But with such a disappointed look, this was the first time she saw in his eyes that Tianxiang Cardamom was said to be able to cure all diseases, and it should be more than enough to save people.
"Ahem..." Yunyan coughed suddenly and said lightly, "I want Tianxiang cardamom just to remove the birthmark on my face."
Get rid of the birthmark on the face? After hearing this, Guyaocheng narrowed his eyes and looked at the expression of the woman opposite. He did not believe in this answer that a woman with such amazing talent and beauty, who was cold and unparalleled, would care about a piece of her face.
Birthmark? If he really cared, he wouldn't have seen her covering it up. He had seen countless people, but the only one he couldn't see through was her!
Thinking of this, Guyao Cheng's expression tightened, and he suddenly stood up, looked at Yun Yan, and said solemnly: "One day, will you leave him?"
Yun Yan's heart trembled, and he looked at Guyao City. What did he mean by this?
"You should understand that in the house of an emperor, the struggle for imperial power and hegemony is inevitable. Even if he doesn't want to, if he wants to survive and trample others under his feet, he must be able to hold these in the palm of his hand."
Guyao City looked at Yun Yan and continued, "Although I admire you very much, we don't want you to be a stumbling block for him to reach the highest position." As soon as he finished speaking, he frowned and looked inside the bead curtain.
On the couch.
The woman on the couch suddenly got off the couch. She walked towards the outside, opened the bead curtain directly, and walked out. Her face was still a little pale, and the red birthmark on her face became more and more charming.
"You mean you want me to leave him? However, you seem to be thinking too much. Mu Jingnan is not a hesitant person. He knows what he wants." Yun Yan's pupils narrowed and she said in a deep voice.
Listening to these conclusive words, Guyao Cheng was suddenly stunned, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Yes, how could he forget that she was the same person as him, so naturally she understood better than him. But -
"If he really wants the world, I will give everything I have to make it possible for him." Yun Yan suddenly turned her body and looked out the door. This was the only thing she could do for him.
If an ordinary woman said this, he would definitely laugh it off, but the person in front of him was in the business world, deep in the intelligence network, and was the leader behind Tingxue Tower. If it was her, it would indeed be possible. Guyao City came back to his senses
, looking at her side face, which was sickly white, he subconsciously asked: "Your body looks bad?"
Shaking his head slightly, Yun Yan said calmly: "My body has been like this since I was a child, so don't worry too much."
Really? Guyao Cheng's brows tightened and he didn't ask any more questions.
I don’t know when, there was only one person left in the room. She stood alone in front of the window sill, looking at the scene of willows fluttering in the wind outside. The willow strips seemed to be getting thicker and the seasons were about to change.
Bar.
When noon was approaching, Bishui came back from outside with an angry look on his face. As soon as he entered the room, he sat down at the table. His little mouth felt so high that he took a few sips of tea.
Listening to the commotion outside, Yun Yan walked out, looked at the clear water, and said with a smile: "Why did you seem to have been greatly wronged when you went out this morning?"
Seeing Yunyan come out, Bishui put down the tea cup, wiped the water on his mouth with his sleeve, stood up, muttered, and said, "Miss, I don't have one!"
"Not yet. This mouth can almost hang a pot. Tell me, what happened? Didn't you go to see Gao Qi's execution? How was it?" Yun Yan sat directly at the table and asked with a smile.
.
Bishui snorted softly, looked out the door, stared, and said nonchalantly: "Why should he care about me? I just went to join in the fun? As for letting him make irresponsible remarks? He also said that I am a woman.
, with long hair and short knowledge, who does he think he is? Isn’t he just relying on his master to act arrogant in front of me? Would I be afraid of him?!"
As soon as these words came out, Yun Yan felt a little confused. She didn't know who she was talking about. At first, she thought that Bishui was venting her anger on Ji Lengxue, but now it doesn't look like that anymore.
"Who is that person?" Yun Yan asked probingly. This girl seemed to be like this a few times recently, huffing and puffing, but she couldn't remember it for a while.
Bishui looked ahead, clenched her little hands, and said dissatisfiedly: "Who else can there be? It's Xiao Yao!"
Xiao want?! Hearing this, Yun Yan felt even more surprised. A figure flashed in his mind, restrained and deep. Isn't that Mu Qingyuan's attendant?
Looking at Bishui again, Yun Yan asked subconsciously: "Are you familiar with that Xiao?"
"Who is familiar with him? Hum, I don't want to see him anymore." Bishui sat down on the stool, the anger on his face getting even worse.
Yun Yan sighed slightly, it was rare to see someone who could make this girl so angry, that Xiao Yao! Thinking of this, she looked at Bishui, and for some reason, she had a strange idea in her heart, but it shouldn't be possible.
!
"You girl, okay, you'd better tell me what happened on the execution ground first. Was Gao Qi really beheaded?" Yun Yan asked.
After hearing these words, the anger on Bishui's face gradually disappeared. She looked at Yun Yan, her eyes instantly glowed with energy, and said with a smile: "Of course Gao Qi was beheaded, and it was the fourth prince who personally issued the beheading order.
I went so early, but it took a lot of effort to get in front. Gao Qi was covered in vegetables and eggs thrown by the people, and some people even threw excrement at him (heavy taste)
). The moment Gao Qi’s head rolled down, all the people outside were cheering for joy. Miss, you didn’t see it. It’s so satisfying!”
Yes, Gao Qi is finally dead. Well, the revenge of my grandfather's family can be considered avenged. It's a pity that only one Gao Qi died in the Gao family, while the entire Li family was slaughtered.
"By the way, miss, I also saw the Sixth Prince." Bishui suddenly thought of something and said.
Yun Yan came back to his senses, looked at Bishui, and said calmly: "It's normal for him to go there!" Gao Qi was also his enemy, and he wanted to see his head fall to the ground more than anyone else.
"No, the Sixth Prince came over with many people. He said something to the Fourth Prince, and the Fourth Prince left immediately with him. It seems like something happened!" Bishui tried to remember and said slowly, "
