Mu Yun'an stood up on tiptoes and kissed Xiao Chengyi's lips and said, "I still like to call you Brother Yi."
She was quite uncomfortable with the sudden change of calling him husband.
Xiao Chengyi smiled and said, "Okay." He stretched out his hand to straighten the hairpin on Mu Yun'an's head, then took her hand and said, "Let's go, let's go see His Majesty."
Mu Yun'an nodded and followed him out of the door, and saw Ling Ji waiting for them outside.
Ling Ji was startled when she saw Xiao Chengyi's face facing Wu Xuanye. She thought that seeing Xiao Chengyi last night was her hallucination, but when she looked at their joined hands, she understood.
She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I heard that His Majesty is going to summon you. I'm a little worried. Come and have a look."
Xiao Chengyi said: "Please rest assured, aunt, I will protect Yan Yan. Thank you for taking care of Yan Yan during this period. Once the matter is resolved, Yan Yan and I will take you out of here. Please rest assured, aunt."
Wait."
Mu Yun'an nodded. She walked over and held Ling Ji's hand and said, "Aunt, we will definitely rescue you. Just wait for me."
Ling Ji was very moved. With tears in her eyes, she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."
She watched Mu Yunan and Xiao Chengyi leave the Gu King Palace. No one knew what was waiting for them after they left.
But she knew that as long as they stayed with each other and worked together, they could withstand all the wind, rain and suffering in this world.
Royal Palace.
In the main hall, Duan Qingli was dressed in a bright yellow dress. She was sitting on the dragon chair that symbolized the Nine-Fifth Emperor, with a majestic air.
Yesterday, she hurriedly summoned hundreds of officials to discuss matters, and finally came to the conclusion that someone in the court was colluding with Nanyue, and the general guarding Luoxia Pass, Han Xu, was a person promoted by the high priest.
Thinking of this, Duan Qingli closed her eyes. She held the dragon chair tightly, and heard someone from outside announcing: "Your Majesty, the high priest is here."
Duan Qingli raised her head and took a deep breath: "Xuan."
Jun Limo strode in and saw that there was no one in the hall except His Majesty. He walked to the center and bowed respectfully: "I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
Duan Qingli looked at the man standing in front of the palace. This was the child she gave birth to in ten months of pregnancy. She once regarded him as a treasure.
At that time, she carefully held him in her arms, thinking that she would give him the best things in the world in the future.
But who would have thought that something unexpected happened. When she was found by her father, he was not yet a year old. His father held him and wanted to throw him to death, but she desperately stopped him and saved his life.
But what?
Ha~
Duan Qingli laughed out loud. She stroked her sleeves and said, "High Priest, how can I not forgive you?"
Jun Limo lowered his eyes and said, "No."
Duan Qingli sneered: "If not, why did you betray Gu and Nan Xinjiang? Do you dare to say that it wasn't you who let Nan Yue's troops enter the pass?
The general guarding Luoxia Pass is yours, right? You are indeed a good son of Gu. If I had known you were ambitious, I might as well have let you die with that beastly father of yours."
When Jun Limo listened to Duan Qingli's words, every word was like a knife cutting into his heart.
He knelt on the ground and said: "I did it. I colluded with Nanyue. I want to be punished. Please give me death."
