Stunning beauty

Wenxuan Courtyard.

In the deserted garden.

Fan Wenzhen told his son the secret that had been hidden in his heart for many years, and his depressed mood obviously improved a lot.

"It seems that it is impossible for the sons and ministers to compete for the crown prince." After listening to the story told by his mother, Mu Qing laughed at himself and said.

"It's the concubine who is sorry for you."

Fan Wenzhen's expression darkened, and he replied, "My concubine didn't expect that her child would be so outstanding. Without any help, he could step by step to the point where he could compete with the other three princes. If the concubine knew that you could have today At the beginning, even if mother and concubine died, she would not agree to your royal father's request."

"Mother and concubine don't have to blame yourself."

Mu Qing let out a deep breath, with a gentle smile on his face, and said, "The crown prince is not a rare thing for me, if I really want to fight for it, even if the flood is raging, I will fight hard, father The emperor can't stop me!"

While speaking, a chill flashed in Mu Qing's eyes, and murderous intent loomed.

Fan Wenzhen sensed the murderous intent of his son in front of him, his mind was shocked, and he immediately reminded, "Son, your father is deep-minded and ambitious. When you are in front of him, you must not show any hostility, otherwise, he will definitely not Forgive you."

"Mother, don't worry."

Mu Qing restrained her murderous intentions, and said calmly, "In Emperor Father's heart, my son is just an impulsive person, at most he can be regarded as someone from the city, so it's nothing to worry about. He won't take my son too seriously."

"Everything, you still have to be careful."

Fan Wenzhen said a word, thought for a while, and walked to the dry well, holding his right hand empty, and suddenly, a bead flew out from the bottom of the dry well, and fell into his hand.

When Mu Qing saw the beads in the hands of Concubine Mu, her expression became slightly condensed.

"This thing, you take it."

Fan Wenzhen turned around, handed the beads over, and said, "Take it well."

"what is this?"

Mu Qing looked at the beads in her mother's hand, and asked puzzledly.

"Hunting Yuanzhu."

Fan Wenzhen said softly, "You can control Netherland and Night Ghost to a certain extent."

"Why did mother give it to Erchen?" Mu Qing asked suspiciously.

"In the future, if there is a misfortune from the underworld or night ghosts in the world, this Hunyuan Pearl can protect your life." Fan Wen said in a serious tone.

"Where is the father?"

Mu Qing frowned, and asked, "Mother gave it to my son, how can I explain it to my father?"

"Hunyuanzhu, originally belonged to the Fan family!"

Fan Wenzhen smiled coldly, and replied, "The reason why your father and emperor brought a woman from a martial arts family into the palace was for this Hunyuan Pearl. It is to give myself one more bargaining chip, and now, Concubine Mu will give it to you."

After finishing speaking, Fan Wenzhen forced the Hunyuan Pearl into the hand of his son in front of him.

"Mother and concubine, this Hunyuan pearl is of no use to my son, so don't be in such a hurry to give it to me."

Mu Qing said earnestly, "Concubine Mu still needs this thing to control the night ghosts, it's more useful to keep this thing with Concubine Mu."

"Need not."

Fan Wenzhen shook his head, and replied, "Mother Concubine has a fake Hunyuan Pearl here, most people can't tell it apart, and it is used to control those immature night ghosts. That's enough. You hold this bead, and Mother Concubine's heart is also broken." You can rest assured."

"Alright then, Erchen will keep this bead first."

Seeing her mother's insistence, Mu Qing didn't refuse any more, and put away the Hunyuan Pearl.

"Son, be careful of your father."

Seeing Mu Qing put away the Hunyuan Pearl, Fan Wenzhen reminded again, "The royal family is deep, and there are countless hidden secrets and methods. Even a saint like Confucian leader can't see through it. Maybe, in this palace, people like concubine mother There are many such shadows.”

Speaking of this, Fan Wenzhen paused and emphasized, "The Li family is the same, don't get too close to them. In the eyes of the mother and concubine, the Li family's son is the same person as your father, cold-blooded and unsympathetic. Measurement."

"No, they're not the same."

Mu Qing shook his head and replied, "Li Jiaoxi will put the choice in front of you, even if there are mountains of swords and fires in front of you, he will not hide it from you. If the concubine mother has a chance to meet Li Jiaoxi, she will know that the strength of the Li family lies in Their terrible unity, and Li Jiaoxi, is the root of this unity."

"It's rare that you think so highly of a person."

Fan Wenzhen said in surprise, "However, according to high positions, they all have ways to win people's hearts. Son, you should be more careful. After all, you must be defensive."

"Mother and concubine's instruction, I will remember." Mu Qing replied respectfully.

"Okay, let's go out, we can't stay here for long."

Fan Wenzhen glanced at the sky, reminded him, and immediately slapped the boulder in front of him, sealed the mouth of the well, and walked outside.

Mu Qing quickly followed and left the garden together.

The two returned to the bedroom and chatted for a long time, but no amount of reluctance could stop the moment of parting.

When parting, Fan Wenzhen looked at the child in front of him and said worriedly, "Son, on the battlefield, swords have no eyes, so remember to protect yourself."

"Mother and concubine, don't worry, son, you will come back safely."

Mu Qing promised loudly, "These days when my son and minister are away, mother and concubine must also take good care of herself."

After the words fell, Mu Qing knelt down, saluted respectfully, and bid farewell to her mother.

After a salute, Mu Qing got up, didn't say any more, suppressed the nostalgia in her heart, and turned to leave.

at the same time.

Li Yuan, the inner courtyard.

Li Ziye put down the chess pieces in his hand, stood up and said, "I'll go to the front hall and wait for the distinguished guests."

"VIP?"

Taotao was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and quickly realized that she asked in surprise, "Young Master, is that your Eleventh Highness?"

"Ah."

Li Ziye nodded, and replied, "According to the time, it's almost time for Mu Qing to leave the palace."

"How does the young master know that the eleventh prince will come?" Taotao asked puzzled.

What Concubine Wen said to the Eleventh Prince, they didn't know, why did the young master conclude that the Eleventh Prince would definitely come to Li Garden?

"Mu Qing is about to go to war. Before leaving, he must thank me, the instigator. Moreover, even if he doesn't take the initiative to come, I will send someone to invite him to come."

Without saying a word, Li Ziye smiled lightly, without any further delay, he walked towards the front yard.

He was looking forward to the next conversation.

The royal family is deep, but it is not completely invulnerable.

For the Li family, Mu Qing and Concubine Wen were an unexpected move. However, variables do not necessarily mean that it is a bad thing.

It depends on how the chess player responds.

That old fox of Emperor Shang, who is in the position of emperor and has the power of a dynasty, is really difficult to deal with, but he is not weak.

At least, in terms of layout alone, he thinks he won't lose to anyone.

Two quarters later.

Outside the palace, Mu Qing walked out, looked at the intersection ahead, thought for a while, then turned and walked towards Li Yuan.

At the intersection, an unremarkable passer-by saw the choice of the eleventh prince, quietly retreated, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
