"Really? How did you find out?"

"Guess."

"..."

Huangfu Liyue only felt a flock of crows flying over her head.

She knew that gossiping with this guy was tantamount to making things difficult for herself.

Mu Jingchen didn't continue this topic, and asked: "Using Gu to frame your female officer, have you revealed who is behind the scenes?"

Two days ago, Huangfu Liyue told him on the phone what happened in the palace recently.

Huangfu Liyue shook her head.

"No, it's strange to say that Qiao Lishan refused to reveal the mastermind behind the scenes.

Today, I brought her family to persecute her, hoping that she can reveal who instigated her.

However, she would rather use the child in her stomach as a bargaining chip and force her to death than reveal the person behind it.

She can even fight for herself and the child in her belly, even if she refuses to let go, there is nothing I can do. "

Mu Jingchen's eyes became colder, and he analyzed: "It seems that the messenger behind her has already controlled her to death, no matter how much you press her, it's useless."

"Yeah, I really don't know what benefits the person behind the scenes has given her. She would rather use the child as a bargaining chip than confess this person."

Huangfu Liyue frowned, with an incomprehensible look on her face.

Seeing that she was worried, Mu Jingchen comforted her, "Don't worry, whether she confesses the mastermind behind the scenes has little effect on us.

Now Chang'an Hall is surrounded by expert guards sent by the king, no one dares to do evil at such a time, otherwise, they would be falling into a trap.

As for the person behind the scenes, I think that when Qiao Lishan gives birth, she will reveal herself. "

On this point, Huangfu Liyue agrees very much.

The reason why Qiao Lishan refuses to reveal the person behind the scenes must be because the person behind the scenes gave her hope of life.

Therefore, no matter what, she would not confess to this person, and she must still count on this person to save her.

However, a lie is a lie, who can rescue a condemned prisoner from the hands of the king?

When she gave birth to the child, she would know that the person behind the scenes was just deceiving her.

At that time, she will definitely collapse to the extreme and confess the mastermind behind the scenes.

The mastermind behind the scenes can naturally think of this, and will definitely silence Qiao Lishan when Qiao Lishan confesses herself.

All they can do now is wait.

Huangfu Liyue also didn't want to worry about this matter anymore, she looked at him and said: "Let's put this matter on hold for now, I believe that the people behind her will not dare to stir up trouble at this time, at least, we can live a peaceful life for a while."

Mu Jingchen put his hand on her head and rubbed it lightly twice.

"Okay, don't think so much, it's late, let's rest."

He took her hand and led her upstairs.

As the saying goes, a little farewell is better than a newlywed.

As soon as she entered the room, Huangfu Liyue was caught off guard against the wall.

Immediately afterwards, his soft thin lips covered hers.

She fell into his arms and was hugged tightly by him.

The faint scent of cologne on his body lingered on the tip of her nose, which was particularly pleasant.

She slowly closed her eyes, quietly enjoying his tenderness and dominance.

The temperature of the room also seemed to gradually rise at this moment.

Not long after, she felt his rapid breathing.

She was picked up horizontally by him, and gently placed on the bed.

His slender fingers gently traced the contours of her face, and her cold black eyes became hot.

His eyes locked on her firmly, as if he wanted to engrave her whole in his heart.

Then, he reached out and grabbed the quilt beside him, covering both of them.

At this moment, the distance between the two is getting closer.

...

Early the next morning.

The king ordered Huangfu Liyue and Mu Jingchen to go to the main hall together.

At this moment, in the magnificent main hall, all the ministers stood on both sides.

Huangfu Liyue and Mu Jingchen were brought in by the guards.

"Meet my father."

"Meet Your Majesty."

The two stopped three meters away from the king and saluted the king respectfully.

The king sat in front of the main hall and watched his daughter and son-in-law come together.

Whether it is appearance, talent, or tacit understanding, the two are very well matched.

There was satisfaction in the king's eyes.

"You don't need to be too polite, Jingchen, Nuo Xi has already told me that you are a great contributor to the disaster in Zhoucheng this time.

With your own efforts, you have retained many disaster victims. Here, I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of the people of Zhoucheng! "

Mu Jingchen remained indifferent as usual, and replied: "Your Majesty is serious, it's nothing to do with a little effort."

The king waved his hand.

"You don't have to be so humble. Although you are not from country Y, but this time, you have made great contributions to Zhou Cheng and country Y. You deserve a seal and a reward!"

The king waved his hand and ordered: "Send the word, Mu Jingchen saves the people of Zhoucheng from suffering and fire, and from today onwards, he will be specially named a first-class marquis, with a reward of tens of millions!"

As soon as these words came out, Huangfu Liyue raised her eyelids in surprise.

The ministers in the palace looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Although Mu Jingchen made contributions to the disaster situation, he was promoted to a first-class marquis for a commoner, isn't that too fast?"

"That's right, the Marquis is only rewarded by the royal relatives and even the ministers with great achievements. After all, Mu Jingchen is still so young, how can he receive such a big reward?"

"Mu Jingchen is the princess's husband. Logically speaking, he is also a relative of the emperor. The king prefers the princess. It is reasonable to make an exception."

The marquis, who is only below the king, queen, prince and duke, can be said to be a high point that many ministers cannot reach in their lifetime.

As for Mu Jingchen, he achieved it at such a young age.

The ministers could also see that the king was taking the opportunity to promote Mu Jingchen so that he could achieve great things in the future and have a bright future.

At this moment, all the ministers can only be envious.

The ministers kept casting envious looks at Mu Jingchen.

But Mu Jingchen didn't move at all.

Not only did he not thank you, but even a little worry appeared on his brows.

Seeing that he didn't move, Huangfu Liyue reminded in a low voice: "Jingchen, what are you thinking, you should thank you."

After hesitating for a few seconds, Mu Jingchen took two steps forward.

"Please take it back, Your Majesty, and forgive me for not being able to accept the reward."

The king's pupils shrank, and the smile froze on his face.

"What did you say?"

The ministers were even more surprised.

"Reject the reward? Is he crazy!"

"That's right, the honor of Guangzong Yaozu is something no one else can ask for, and he actually refused?"

"What does he mean by this? Don't you think the reward is not enough? This is too ignorant!"

Huangfu Liyue looked at him in surprise, unable to guess his thoughts for a while.

Mu Jingchen ignored all the discussions behind him, and also ignored Huangfu Liyue's surprised expression, insisting: "Please take it back, Your Majesty!"

These words really made the king a little bit embarrassed.

If it were someone else, they would be grateful to Dade for this kind of gift.

When it came to Mu Jingchen, he refused without saying a word.
