Taking steps again, Xu Mingyue, who was lying on Xu Jian's shoulder, cast her unfocused gaze on the crowd, and locked the horseman Lao Liu for an instant.

This man once dragged her father out of poisonous gas on the battlefield, and became mute because his throat was suffocated by the poisonous gas.

For a family like theirs, a mute person can invisibly put people at ease, so whenever the family members go out, they will give priority to Lao Liu to drive the horse.

It is true that this man is mute, but this mute can read.

After Xu Mingyue married into the East Palace in her previous life, she had personally seen this mute handing over letters to Xie Chongan in private.

But Xu Mingyue in her previous life was extremely innocent. She thought she was a member of the family and arranged for Lao Liu to send her some practical things, and the letter was supposed to be from her brother.

Now it seems that her family was caught in a trap in the last life, and this person may have played a big role.

But now there is no conclusive evidence, and this man is her father's savior, so Xu Mingyue dare not act rashly.

Because even though her father was very kind to her, he would not kill innocent people just because of her words.

After all, how many people in this world can believe in rebirth?

Out of sight, out of mind, Xu Mingyue simply closed her eyes.

Xu Mingqing paused and looked at the commander of the personal guards in the palace. His steady words revealed his decisiveness in killing.

"Huba, immediately clear out everyone within ten feet of the study, and mobilize personal guards to surround the study. If anyone shows any intention of approaching, there is no need to report, and he will be executed immediately."

After saying this, everyone behind them stopped and bowed their heads.

Huba immediately blew his whistle to dispatch his personal guards, and personally led the team to surround the study like an iron barrel.

The study door was closed. Xu Minghuai and Xu Jian closed their eyes and listened to the surrounding movements for a while. They looked at each other and nodded at the same time before everyone sat down in their respective seats.

Xu Jian helped Lin Yan sit on the main seat, put Xu Mingyue into Lin Yan's arms, and stood behind Lin Yan holding on to the back of the chair.

No matter how prominent his government was, most of the men in his family had to go to war. Xu Jian was even more of a rough man. He was able to hire Lin Yan as his wife to take care of the housework for him, and taught his children to be so outstanding. This is Xu Jian's luck in this life.

In the entire town, Lin Yan is the largest.

Xu Mingqing poured herself a cup of hot tea and began to explain what happened in court today.

"Auntie, the heads of the Wang and Liu aristocratic families were robbed and killed by bandits the day before yesterday. This morning, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty have invited King Chen to ascend the throne three times. The ceremony for King Chen's enthronement is scheduled for three days later."

Xu Mingyue grasped the bell on her wrist and said anxiously: "Brother, where is the prince brother?"

Xu Mingqing: "Without the providence represented by my legitimate daughter of the Xu family, the reason why King Chen ascended the throne was that the prince was young and seriously ill, unable to take care of the country. When the prince is healthy, he should return the country to the prince."

"Ha." Xu Minghuai's laughter revealed a bit of amusement: "This is the first time I've heard that the emperor sat on the throne and came back. Today, I really have to thank King Chen for opening my eyes."

Xu Minglang slowly looked at Xu Mingyue, whose face was squeezed into a ball.

"Xie Yan ascends the throne. If the prince is still the prince, he will either never wake up. If he wakes up, there is only one word of death."

"It's a pity that Xie Qingyao has such a face. Where can my second brother find such a good-looking man for my Yaoyao again..."

Xu Mingqing smiled and shook his head, suppressing Xu Minglang's deliberate teasing: "Yaoyao, do you really want Xie Qingyao?"

There is no question whether she should want it or not. In the eyes of Xu Mingyue's brothers, as long as Xu Mingyue wants it, it will be given to her.

Xu Mingyue was afraid that her age would affect the weight of her words, so she deliberately lowered her childish voice.

"Brother, the late emperor and the late empress were assassinated, and King Chen still hasn't sought justice for them. It's really pitiful for the prince and brother to lose their parents."

"Yaoyao and the prince's brother have an engagement. If he is willing, I will marry him in the future. If he is not willing, then he is also my brother. We are all family."

"So, can we also protect him?"

Looking sideways at everyone's reactions, Xu Mingyue felt a little guilty.

To be honest, after what she has experienced, it is really difficult to pretend to be a six-year-old child.

Xu Mingyue still hoped that she had not exposed her secrets.

But looking at everyone's eyes on her, Xu Mingyue felt that her hope was a little slim.

In fact, she has always been the only one in her family who was too pure and kind, but if she hadn't married a non-human and had her family to protect her in her previous life, Xu Mingyue would have been happy and worry-free.

Xu Minghuai was the first to break the silence and said angrily: "It's up to him whether he wants to or not? If you like my little brother, just kidnap him back for you."

Xu Mingyue looked at Xu Minghuai's serious face and quickly explained: "I don't like him that much, I still need to know more about him."

Relationships should be mutually beneficial. If compensation is regarded as love, it would be blasphemy to both her and Xie Qingyao.

Xu Minglang mixed Xu Mingyue's words together and smacked them carefully, and the curve of the corner of his mouth revealed a bit of evil: "Listen to what Yaoyao means, are you going to lead Xie Qingyao to rebel in the future?"

Xu Mingyue was not shocked by these words, but said sternly: "If the people under the rule live a good life, then it is just a personal grudge. They can take revenge and complain if they have any grudges."

"But if the mountains and rivers are in turmoil and the people's livelihood is uneasy, we should rise up and attack, and this throne should be occupied by a capable person."

After these words fell, everyone in the room remained silent at the same time.

In fact, with such a big change happening in our family, everyone has some luck.

But none of them asked.

Because anything that can change a person completely is definitely not a good dream.

But Xu Mingyue's shabby appearance and no pretense caught the whole family off guard.

After all, before going to court today, there was absolutely no intention of anyone in their family to rebel.

But now, Yaoyao of the Xu family has revealed his intention to rebel, and the reason for the rebellion seems to be quite sufficient...

Xu Jian lowered his head and played with the ring around his waist.

Xu Mingqing stood up from the coffee table and walked around the study.

Xu Minglang frowned slightly and tapped the coffee table with his knuckles.

Xu Minghuai held the spear in one hand and couldn't help stroking it.

Lin Yan fed Xu Mingyue hot tea and asked softly: "Is Yaoyao's marriage finalized?"

Xu Jian shook his head: "King Chen said that Yaoyao is still young and we should wait until he is older. In the final analysis, they still want to follow the will of my daughter."

Lin Yan put down the tea cup and ordered it.

If a man in the Zhenguo Duke's family cannot protect Xu Mingyue, he will be the ancestor of the Xu family who would not be able to see the Xu family even if they die.

Xu Mingqing understood what his mother meant and spoke on her behalf.

"To prevent Yaoyao from becoming a tool of the imperial power, to protect Xie Qingyao, and to bring justice to the late emperor and the late empress, one needs to have the strength to bring order out of chaos."

"If we keep all our strength in the capital, it will be too eye-catching and it will be extremely difficult to break free from the shackles of imperial power."

"And the so-called rebellion is just a way to restore the truth and clarity to the mountains and rivers."

After saying this, everyone looked at Xu Jian.

Because what Xu Mingqing said was mainly for Xu Jian.
